Athol snorts at the anchor's lack of care, breaking the tip of her pencil in frustration.

I said shut it off!672Please respect copyright.PENANA4Zfz2SXse5
The nurse quickly changes the channel. The HAPPY DAYS THEME SONG replaces the droll voice of the anchor. Athol glares at the TV, fuming.
FREDRICK (O.S)672Please respect copyright.PENANAs3SdCCZgSl
Are we going to have another Jerry on our672Please respect copyright.PENANAU0MN5ng3eS

Athol turns and sees a grim-looking, though smiling Fredrick. He sits across from her, and exhaling exasperatedly lets her pencil flop onto the table. 672Please respect copyright.PENANAIJzwERIaXl

(with a sigh)672Please respect copyright.PENANAkCX1JTt9Go
Yeah.672Please respect copyright.PENANAaEtdKosE0I
Athol sighs herself and rolls her head back. Fredrick fiddles with his coat before reaching over and taking Athol's word search, continuing from where she left off. Athol looks back at him curiously. 672Please respect copyright.PENANAyDaeT34823
ATHOL672Please respect copyright.PENANAtK5lNmLQ6K

One hundred and one dilemmas a day, Athe.672Please respect copyright.PENANAx9zIQpDkfc
Athol suddenly throws her pencil at him, hitting him square on the head. He looks up, surprised. Athol's sitting back in her chair with crossed arms. 672Please respect copyright.PENANAOJTzBl3BfA

On a personal level? You 'er in the Goth scene672Please respect copyright.PENANAKdP2qijx6B
in your youth, weren't ya?672Please respect copyright.PENANApweLFgnAk2
Fredrick stands and walks to the window, rubbing the hem of his coat. Athol frowns, shakes her head slightly, and walks over to him, rubbing his back and leaning against him. Fredrick doesn't look at her. 672Please respect copyright.PENANA9fw3OJCTvu
FREDRICK672Please respect copyright.PENANAkPqX36vqud
It's not that I was a part of the culture, Athe.672Please respect copyright.PENANAtrKkNgWM3b

Because I'm making it personal. 672Please respect copyright.PENANAG1kAGxAiA2
Athol frowns, then kisses his cheek and takes her leave, leaving the doctor to his thoughts. Fredrick stares blankly after her until she's out of sight, then walks down a hall to Sophie's room.672Please respect copyright.PENANADGiHspdZ8K
