Clone Reva reacts with obvious hurt, but, perhaps surprisingly, reveals that each time Josh turns away from her it makes her want to die. Josh's answer? "I sold my soul for my children, but I can't sell my heart. You're a beautiful, wonderful, smart woman, but you're not Reva. She's gone and you can't take her place." (Jeeze, isn't that why he and Michael created her???). He continues to hurt her during the conversation, making a sarcastic remark at one point about how he should call Michael to have him clone some broken crystal glasses.
