Thanks, but I'll take care of it. So! [Holding up a finger.] Yes to lunch... and the ophthalmologist. And if it gets me out of having to submit to a half hour-long marathon of being poked and prodded in a claustrophobic doctor's office, then... [he shakes his head, sighing] ...fine. You can conduct your examination, or whatever it is you want to call it, and then we can all breathe a little easier.
[Oswald shifts and swings his legs over the side of his bed, a spasm of pain twisting his face when he touches down. He tucks his feet into his slippers, shuffling to slide open the doors to his walk-in closet.]
Not that I expect too much of a difference. It is what it is, after all. [Pausing.] But at least it's you, and not some... club-fingered brute.
