What was her state of mind then?

Will certainly didn't think his dad was depressed enough to take his own life, and not on that day of all days.

He'd seen his dad just that morning.

They'd had coffee together and made plans to go to the racetrack.

In fact, Jake's old car was set to be raced that very afternoon, a 1975 Firebird.

When you left, what was his demeanor like?

Was he excited?

That timing seemed especially puzzling to Rachel.

She just couldn't wrap her mind around her dad ending his life then, when Will was on his way back to the house and would likely see the aftermath.

The relationship that my dad and my brother had together was so...

When I say best dad award, I mean that in all capital letters.

He never, ever, ever, knowing that Will was coming right back, never would have done that to my brother.

Confused and looking for answers, Rachel and Will went back to the house that night after the shooting.

They went into the bedroom where their dad died.

Rachel tried to imagine what her dad had been thinking.

It wasn't easy.

My dad was sick.

He was experiencing health issues.

You know, I try to put myself in everybody's shoes.

Okay, you're sick.
