Mariska Hargitay

And I knew where it came from and the love that it came from that I went, I got it.

And I said, okay, dad, sorry.

I just thought, and we never spoke of it again.

Well, he did say a couple of times, remember when you thought that crazy thing, but I loved my father so much and he loved me and he was so,

devoted to me that I didn't want to betray him in any way because he never admitted to me that he wasn't my biological father.

I could feel his pain.

He couldn't really talk about her without crying.

I think there was so much left unsaid.

There was so much pain that he witnessed and the fact that he couldn't change her or help her at the end in the dark days.

He loved her so much and he couldn't do anything about it.

I just wanted to love him back.

as devotedly and committedly and lovingly as he had, how he'd given me his life.

And so it was...

A beautiful moment of maturity and me going, it doesn't matter.

It doesn't matter.

And here's a guy from Hungary who didn't believe in therapy.

And when I said I'm going to therapy, he's like, therapy's bullshit.

You got to know who you are and where you're going and where you came from.

That's what he would say.

You got to know where you came from, who you are, and where you're going.
