Dr. West

Morning, Marshall

Morning, Doc

So we're discharging you today; how are you feeling?

Anxious

Anxiety?

Well, anxious to get home, anxious to get back into the world, nervous

Nervous? Come on, Marshall, you're a big boy now, sounding like a bit of a baby

You can do this; you found a sponsor yet?

Um, not yet, I mean, but when I get back

Well, if you find one, you find one; if you don't, you don't

Well, yeah, I mean, I gotta start going to meetings first and

Wait, what?

Well, you don't absolutely have to go to meetings

And it's not like like a requirement that they fit into your schedule

We know you're a busy person

But I thought variety was the most important thing?

So what else are you thinking?

Um, well, I know I gotta start practicing the steps

And, I mean, learning them, and start being able to apply them

Steps?

Yeah, steps

There's a lot of them, aren't there?

Well, twelve

Christ, I don't even know them all

Really?

Anything else?

Um, well, I mean the only other question I have was like

What do I do if I find myself in a situation where

Maybe somebody is drinking around me or something like that and I get tempted to?

Take a drink

What?

Take a drink and, you know, take the edge off

Take the edge off?

Man, if I ever take a drink, I already know what that's gonna lead me to

What, you mean these?

Man, what the fuck?

Marshall, what's the matter, darling?

Having some doubts already?

Marshall, you can't leave me

You'll never leave me, Marshall

We'll always be together, Marshall

Marshall? Marshall?

No, no, no, no, no

Oh, shit
