It's early, by Milliways standards, when Michael packs away his things in Room 15 - he tells himself he's not checking out, that he'll be back soon and find the box still sitting there on the edge of the bed with a bottle of whiskey and two tumblers on the table, waiting for him. Waiting for Emma to congratulate him on getting his life back.
He's going to be a spy again. He has to be. Either a spy, or a dead man.
He locks the door and goes down to the bar for one last beer in his corner stool, glad that nobody he talks to is around.
When Michael Westen leaves Milliways, maybe for the last time, he leaves behind only one message with the bar:
Emma –
I’m sorry, this is something I have to do.
If you need a place to stay, use the key I gave you. Please.
