Dr. Dots: Hello SCP-4168-2. We found some interesting things while going through your home yesterday. We were wondering if you could maybe give me your insight and explanation for it.

SCP-4168-2: (Laughs.) Eh, I knew this would be coming. Can’t guarantee I can give you what you want, but what do you want to know? And let’s please try to make this quick.

Dr. Dots: Well, we’re mostly we’re interested in your motive. When we first interviewed you, you acted as if you were unaware of all that was going on. But with our recent finds, we see that you were well aware of the effects of the ring and even played the part of the jewellery store. Why did you do all this?

SCP-4168-2: (SCP-4168-2’s smile fades, a more serious expression replacing it.) You don't understand. I had no choice. She made me do this. I tried everything but she wouldn't listen. I told her countless times to depend on me, to need me as I need her. But she kept going behind my back. I gave her everything she could need, and she threw it back in my face. It's for her own good. Its what’s best for her. It's what's best for us. This was my only option.

Dr. Dots: Why do you feel that way? Did you try something else before?

SCP-4168-2: I’ve tried just talking to her. I’ve tried simply asking her. But she simply didn’t listen. Marie has never had it easy. She never had anyone that could just be there for her like me. No one that dedicated themselves to her! I mean this was all not easy you know. But the hard work and labour were going to be worth it, until again, you freaks got involved and started acting like you know shit. You don’t! I mean, please! Just let me do this for her! She needs me!

Dr. Dots: We’ve observed that your behaviours have only been causing Marie distress. Haven’t you-

SCP-4168-2: No! NO! Stop acting like you know what’s happening. Marie got half of her face burned off from a work accident when she was working as a trainee at the hospital, that’s why she doesn’t work there anymore! If she would have just listened to me and stopped trying to pursue shit, it wouldn’t have happened. Even her new job at the office was bad for her because her boss kept hitting on her! That wouldn’t have happened if she had just stayed at my house! I don’t want to see her hurt! What you guys are doing is hurting her! It’s a simple concept. She stays near me, and she doesn’t get hurt. She just needed a little motivation to get that. But she needs me.

Dr. Dots: Marie appears to think otherwise. Since having some time separate from you-

SCP-4168-2: You know, I appreciate you keeping me in containment with her, though I know you don’t want to. I mean I was able to do what I wanted with her since she’s you know, mine, but then you guys started monitoring and stopped me from as much as trying to touch her. Fuck you honestly. She needs to know that I’m there for her and that I love her!

Dr. Dots: It seems to me you’re acting less like you’re there for her, and more like you own her.

SCP-4168-2: That’s because I do lady! (SCP-4168-2 stands up from its chair, hurling it at the wall.) I’ve tried to be nice, but you don’t understand! You just don’t fucking understand! For Christ’s sake, there’s a whole stack of board games that she says she plays with the doctors while I’m passed out. Pathetic really. I’m the one she should be doing stuff with. I’m the only one she needs! I mean one minute you’re watching her rot for five days and the next you’re acting like kids at a sleepover. Which is it huh? I’ll make it easy. She’s not your friend. She’s a test subject to you. I’m going to say this again. You don’t understand!

Silence for four seconds.

Dr. Dots: You’ve really got things backwards, Mr. Langson.
