You got me there, Spock... it's as much a surprise to you as it is to me... I can't say it's been easy watching her fall apart. Believe me, it's been my personal hell sometimes. I... wish I could tell you, son. I wish I knew. I never understood how our boys weren't more important to her and I've watched my family crumble for twenty six years wondering the same thing. Why?
I don't know that answering that question is going to help. I just have to find it in me to forgive her somehow... I know Jim would in a heartbeat if she gave him even a suggestion that she might be better. He wants so badly to have a family...
You know that now about him, Spock... you're one of the few people in his life who's shown him love that wasn't conditional.
