...Richie...I'm gonna be really honest with you here? I'm here to help you through whatever shit this is that's going on with you.

(He's careful with his words, knowing very well that Richie might not want his help at all or get mad for just offering. What right did he even have? Coming back into Richie's life like this to try and fix it.)

I recognized you on this special of your on Netflix and it came back to me. But then I started seeing your face online and in other places and at first I thought, you know, just bad publicity moments but...

(He doesn't say anymore. He doesn't think he has to. Richie's lifestyle was well-documented.)

Clearly you're not helping yourself so I'm here to do that for you, dude. I'm not going. I mean. If you want me to I will but...I don't want to.
