All you needed was a little anger.

Jokes on you, Bud, I'm always angry.

I rather think you might be always sad.

But then, it's no concern of mine.

You're not with me every day, Prick.

And you and your hurdles are hardly unique.

That's the trouble with people. We're no where near so interesting.

On second thought, I don't want you anywhere near my dad when he starts teething.

I'm getting a "I'm actually a whackjob kook" aura from you, and we've had our share of those to last us a lifetime. So thanks for the offer but we're no longer interested.

Have... I just been fired from a babysitting position?

Unless you can prove you're not some cynical psycho because this town only needs one.

May I know the payment of this job first?

We never negotiated any payment, buddy. You told me if he was around or whatever to bring him to you if I need help.

Oh! Now, hold on. Medical treatment certainly isn't babysitting.

And what kind of medical treatment will you do exactly? Needles? Scalpels? Straps with no way out?

Hopefully, unless he's actually injured, no treatment at all.

That was a trick question, Doc. You're not strapping my pops down or poking him with any needles.

I should hope he's never afflicted with rabies or the kind of sickness that might require it.

Really, you're overthinking. Due to an injury, I no longer practise medicine back home. I'm only offering here as a last resort. In fact, Ain and Dr. Bashir should be your first recourse.

Oh, THAT'S the least of our worries.

[ and that being because she can do a certain something, in which she'll keep secret. ]

Hold on a tick boom, Andy's a doctor? Since when?
