After Jesse finally found out the truth, he did not kill Rob and Charlie who were traveling with him, but eased the holster, turned his back on the past and pretended to wipe the painting and let Rob kill himself. Change, from distrust, depression, anger to everything around him, and finally to despair. Even the most trusted person has already betrayed him. In fact, he chose such a "suicide".
