As I've said, Archer, I believe you. While I don't see much sense in feeling guilty for something you didn't do - and before you argue with me, I think these dreams do, in some way, indicate that you're feeling guilty - I'm not accusing you of anything.
And honestly, knowing what you've just told me, I would be incredibly annoyed if you were trying to replace him. So I'm willing to continue to believe you there, as well.
