[He gives a bow, and speak out loud, as if on a stage.]
I want you all to smile!
Step out on the stage! Give a bow! Clap to the audience. They're the most important part of the play, y'know!
[And then, a pause...]
Regrets....regrets......
This old guy has a lot of them, probably. I've hid who I was for a long time. I'll continue to do that. Sorry, maybe not that sorry for that. I'm the shadowy comic relief, not the one out on stage.
[The light doesn't reach his eyes.]
I'm a very good liar. I'll continue to lie. You gotta do that for the role. But anyways...I really mean it.
Continue to have a good time, with happiness in your heart.
