It's not as if the numbers are in the thousands or even the hundreds, but he hardly wants to take a headcount of who in this town still believes he killed his own family.

"In any case, it's nothing I can't handle," he says, which is perhaps easier said than felt but he's not talking to Lou to earn her sympathy. He lets out a little laugh, running a hand through his hair just to give himself something to do. "Neither do I but I can't say I don't appreciate it."
