...but, then again, up until the end, I'd hope for the third choice. Do whatever it takes, anything you can to stop the train completely. Either you're successful, or instead of five lives or one life, you wind up taking seven. Yourself included.
Whenever I have to make a decision like that, I'm reminded that lives are always on the line no matter what I do. If I'm wrong, then I'll have to live with that and keep that in my mind for the rest of my life.
But, I can't just play an unfair game and try not to be unfair myself.
