I am such an idiot. Look it up in the dictionary, the encyclopedia, the world wide internet--that's what you'll find wherever you look: Tony Stark is an idiot. No, not just an idiot. A stupid bastard of an idiot. Yeah, a bastard. That's what I am.

Sorry, Father... Mother...

But it's the truth. I can't... I can't believe... what I did. Last night... I'm so sorry... How did...? Why...? I'm so stupid.

[a sigh and a long pause]

I'm nothing. He was right--the man with everything, and yet nothing.
