Constellation 06

[Arthur is pacing on the Plane, dressed in a much nicer suit than usual. He seems to be muttering something to himself, and pauses a moment to look down at his tie, frowning he undoes it completely, then slowly begins to retie it.]   -terms space and time have not only a vague descriptive reference to a boundless void and an ever-rolling stream, but denot the exact quantitative system of reckoning distances and time-intervals...[He finishes and seems satisfied for a moment, then just sighs and begins all over again]

His wife killed herself. Apparently that's my fault.

...she took her own life?

His wife was a patient of mine. I cured her, but I had to get him to admit that he cheated on her. It turned out to not be important, but I still needed to know. So I told her, and apparently she killed herself over it.

He was very bitter.

...I'm sorry.

Hey, he lived, I lived, I got a ketamine treatment for a while...Everyone wins.

Except Cuddy. She had to increase hospital security, which sucks. But it's not my fault, or my money.

Ketamine treatment?

Let's just call it "magic" for the ease of explanation.

[Arthur makes a face at that] That was what another fellow claimed to use, a while ago. He looked a bit like me and the Doctor, but he was very...rude.

And he said he used magic. I think we call that "crazy".
