[Eddie shrugs a little, his eyes down.]

I get it. He was upset because I was dating the woman he had feelings for, he was angry at me for that. I really do get it. I just wish he wouldn't have...you know, I wish he wouldn't have tried to get her to cheat on me. And it hurts, that he did such a good job of it.

[Licking his lips, he glances up when Cisco pulls him in, gentle and careful, and kisses his forehead while he explains that one of them should have had his back, that someone should've spoken up. The tears do spill over then, welling up and making his vision blurry, two of them streaking down his cheeks, joined by a few more when Cisco explains that Joe had told Iris that he'd wanted to tell her the truth, when he says that Barry realized that he'd messed up after Eddie had died.]

That helps. [It's soft, but honest. Genuine.] It helps to know that...she knew that in the end. I always trusted her.

[A pause, and he rubs at his eyes, licking his lips.]

They're getting lighter. It's like they're hollow inside now.
