He shakes his head and smiles, and now it's the different sort of smile of a man looking at a lost cause. He does not believe there is a chance, partly because if there were, and he took it, it would not guarantee he would have his daughter back. Yes, they were meant to travel together, and they would, but he's failed her so much and for so long, even at the last moment when it would have mattered most. He isn't sure she would stay with him.
"Why you have to go and comfort me, I should be the one doin' that," he tries to tease. It sounds more sad than teasing, his voice stumbling a little bit.
