[ To him, that baby is totally hard to gain the trust of. But it's still a baby and someone that needs looked after. That needs taken care of. ]

I had always promised myself, Luci, that if I ever had kids, I would be different. I wouldn't be like the man who raised me. And now I find out that I am more than just like him. I'm worse.

[ Yeah, he really isn't want to have her talk him out of this. He just needs to be told it's okay to actually want this sort of thing for himself. He's never really thought about kids but knowing he might have one, that changed things somehow. ]

I'm saying that I at least want to be a part of her life. Somehow. She might not be here. It's one of my memories. She might be in Italy still... I just have to keep the lie up. For the fans. For the executives. Everyone has to think this kid is something that just got revealed to me. I know you'll help with that. It'll keep her protected from them. They won't be able to use her against me. But if I can find her... I at want to know that she's happy and healthy. [ He chuckles a little. He knows he must sound so weak and pathetic, for caring about someone not himself or his band. ] But you're right. I can't just storm in and ruin her life.
