No. I sort of appeared back here.

I saw the picture. Your picture.

Oh. Yeah, a couple people were a little freaked out by that.

I'm okay, though.

You weren't freaked out by it?

Honestly? No. Death toll's annoying, but that's it.

Hm, and here I was thinking it was a good deterrent.

It probably is for most people.

The way you died sucked. Not gonna judge you if you're not okay after that.

It did - suck, yes.

I'm - well, I will be alright.

Sucks being the only licensed guy here, huh. No therapist for the therapist.

I don't need a therapist.

I have people to talk to, which - is good enough.

If you're sure. Just thinking about how it wouldn't be good for our only professional to go all martyr on us. Airplane gas mask rules, you know?

Explain that one for me?

Oh, right, 1950s. Uh-- planes in the future have oxygen masks in case there's a loss of cabin pressure. They always tell you to put your own on before you try to help the people around you, because if you're a mess--

[Guidelines that Shaw very often does not follow herself: this.]

Oh. Well, that's actually not a bad policy.

Unfortunately I don't know many people who follow it closely.

Including yourself?

I'm aware of it. Actively working on it.

Okay.

Glad you're back. And I'm glad you're talking to my inmate, too.

Yeah?

I like Will.

Me, too. I know I got lucky.

He mentioned that you wanted him seeing others.

In addition to you, not opposed to you. It's not a personal slight, it's-- I want a wider range of mental health professionals checking up on him at least semi-regularly.

Oh I know what it meant, don't worry.

I enjoy talking with him. I'll keep doing it in whatever capacity he wants.

I'm pushing him towards you and Kiryu, mostly. Bright's fine as a friend, but he's got some unprofessionalism red flags; this started because I didn't want him being the only therapist Graham was willing to talk to.

Well, he and I started friendly, not necessarily as a patient and therapist role.

It took him a while to trust that I wasn't trying to hurt him.

Yeah. It'll be good for him to learn that not all therapists are like the assholes at home.

No, not all. But from what I saw, he has a right to be nervous.
