Don't trust him, Connor thinks. He didn't keep his distance when Harry really didn't need him around, what with all the "avenge me" appearances, not to mention those poltergeist stunts. And he kept it when Harry did need him. Don't trust anything he says.
But Norman makes a Harry gesture, and it hurts watching it, and the last things he says actually make sense.
"If you were really concerned about Harry you'd tell me," Connor says in a mixture of distrust and unwilling belief. "I guess you know. Don't ghosts know everything? Peg knew about you. So if you want to help your son, just spell it out. Tell me who did it to him, because right now I'm not in a riddle solving shape. Did Todd Campbell bribe someone at OsCorp? Some Jake Davidson revenge gig because Harry helped Claire? Or did you have a clone hidden somewhere who just got activated by Bernard who is playing Ygor?"
Those are angry taunts, but also genuine questions. Well, except for Bernard as a suspect. Connor and Bernard didn't exactly hit it off, but he doesn't believe Bernard would in any way deliberately harm Harry, other than through a sharp tongue.
"Tell me," he says, all sarcasm gone from his voice, which is almost pleading. "If you know, and if you can, just tell me who it is, and I'll kill him tonight."
