The most heartwrenching part is that he barely speaks at all; instead you can see the shock, pain, and numb disbelief in his body language as he sits down slowly, stares at the screen, then eventually gets up and does this numb-looking shuffle-walk through the door into the hallway outside, looking like his entire world has come crashing down and he's not sure what to do.
