Pip wandered around trying to gather his thoughts and decide what he wanted to do: stand by Damien, or follow through with what Kenny thought was best. He sighed.

Take a breath, take it deep

Calm yourself he says to me

If you play, you play for keeps

Take the gun and count to three

The heartbreaker scheme was becoming more like a game of Russian Roulette and Pip could no longer determine whether or not it was Damien or himself who was standing on the losing end.

Steady now, moving slow

No time to think, my turn to go

"And you can see my heart beating

You can see it through my chest

That I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving

Know that I must pass this test

So just pull the trigger."

Remembering his talk with Kenny only a few minutes before, Pip sang,

" 'Say a prayer to yourself

He says close your eyes, sometimes it helps'

Then I get a scary thought:

That he's here means he's never lost."

He knew that when it came to manipulating other people, Kenny McCormick was second best-runner-up to Eric Cartman. But he didn't want to be a part of this anymore.

"And you can see my heart beating

You can see it through my chest

That I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving

Know that I must pass this test

So just pull the trigger!"

And what if he close to side with Kenny? What would happen to his own heart when he broke Damien's? The dates and days they shared, the moments and the friendship they'd known-what would happen to them? Would they dissipate into nothingness afterward-into something less than the faintest memories? He realized, though, that he had to tell Damien about the plan because he had lied and deceived him-Damien at least deserved the truth.

"As my life flashes before my eyes,

I'm wondering, 'Will I ever see another sunrise?'

So many won't get the chance to say goodbye

But it's too late to think of the value of my life.

And you can see my heart beating

You can see it through my chest

That I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving, no,

Know that I must pass this test….

And you can see my heart beating

You can see it through my chest

That I'm terrified, but I'm not leaving

Know that I must pass this test

So just pull the trigger."

At that moment Pip caught sight of his boyfriend and came to a decision for the second time in half an hour. He and Damien approached one another and Pip took a breath.

"Damien, we need to talk."
