Damn the fireballs and full speed ahead, Wilson crossed towards Phoebe.
"He gave you no choice." Wilson said with threads of anger, anger directed at the Source, not Phoebe, in his tone. "A choice implies a clear picture of your options. What he did was manipulate the facade of the soul you love."
Stopping short of Phoebe, Wilson looked her straight in the eye.
"Cole might be many things, Phoebe...young, reckless, arrogant, occasionally denser than a post but he loves you and he would never manipulate you. Phoebe, please...if we can see that the being you are here with is not Bel, is not Cole...if we can see and believe and forgive...why can't you?"
Pointing towards the Source, Wilson said in a firm tone. "That.Is.Not.Cole. If there is anything of Cole left he is dying in that thing."
