I would hope but I'm not so sure. In the retraction episode he starts off by sounding genuinely remorseful, while simultaneously continuing to lie through his teeth. Then in the second part when he calls Ira back, he retrenches and uses that as an opportunity to express how much he stands by what he did. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he's not happy about being called out, but he leaves me wondering just how unhappy he really is. I'm not convinced he wouldn't do it all over again if he could...

It may take time for him to realize what he's done to his name.
