Jill reminds him that everyone makes mistakes, but the kids and Lily will remember he loves them, always stepped up and did his best. She says his kids will make mistakes too, but wonders if he wants them to beat themselves up from them or learn from them and tells him to set a better example. He tells her that he now knows exactly what he has to do next.
