The thing about this world, is that good things don't happen to heroes, Tommy. Let me tell you a story, Tommy. A story of a man called Theseus. His country (well, a city-state, technically) was in danger. He sent himself forward, into enemy lines, he slayed the Minotaur, he saved his city, and you know what they did to him, Tommy? They exiled him. He died in disgrace, despised by his people. That's what happens to heroes, Tommy. The Greeks knew the score. But if you want to be a hero, Tommy, that's fine. That's fine. Do you want to be a hero, Tommy? Do you want to be a hero, Tommy?! Then die like one!
