He tells Swerve he had nothing to do with the Bucks attacking him after Dynasty. Page says his son still wakes up scared thinking Swerve is in his room. He says Swerve deserved what Page did to him, but he thinks Swerve knows he deserves it and that’s why he regrets it, and asks Swerve if he regrets it.

Swerve then asks him to wait. Swerve asks him to wait and he tells Page he was planning to raise his kids in the house Page burned down, but maybe it’s time to let go of the past after all.
