He slid the container open and gasped when he saw the tiny Porsche he had so often played with. Roylin threw it back at Tuttle, and it landed on the floor between them. Tuttle smirked, stooped and picked it up. “The guilt is eatin’ you alive, isn’t it, Roylin? I used to be like that. When I was vey young, before life hardened me, the guilt would gnaw at me too. Don’t worry about it. As time goes by, you’ll care less. You’ll be able to remember Ambrose Miller and laugh at what a useless old fool he was.”

Tuttle went out of his way to keep Roylin feeling guilty about causing Mr.Miller's death.

Tuttle gives Roylin one of his favorite toy cars he used to play with at Mr.Miller's.
