The [Medical Site Lead] has the code to stop the alarms and does so. He knows the patient is not infected; but decides that they need some action to end the alarms.

[Medical Site Lead]: "I will remove the scars from previous attacks from your body. Please take off the gown and stand with limbs apart."

Arl turns to face away from the wrougs and places the gown on the examination table. He holds his arms out horizontally and widens his stance.

Lasers burn the seven places that have small scars. Arl holds his breath and eventually to breathe by mouth since the smell of burning flesh has an unsettling effect. He shakes a little.

Arl hears some kind of noise from the hallway. It could have been a cough, or a [bump over] of some kind.

[Medical Site Lead]: "You experienced extreme mental distress in the park. You experienced another distress today (suicidal discourses and wild posturing). I will prescribe you a period of two full weeks in the feminine form. Also, you Lan. You might have special rights on this planet, but those do not apply in this facility. If I find that you are not working towards the best interests of this patient; I will have you leave."

Arl is once again in a feminine form (no bracelet, and also the top of Arl's head does not hurt). Arl puts the gown back on. Arl considers the vocal changes and the directed messages spoken. These are things are being done so that the wroug can do the things he must do and give ease where he can.

Arl pulls up his hands to about his neck and tucks the elbows close. With hands slightly offset and fingers bent downward loosely, Arl turns around.

[Medical Site Lead]: "Are you planning to touch me?"

Arl: "No, I will touch no one. I understand that I might be contagious. This is a posture of an offer to extend hands, the offer alone is enough. A sign of gratitude. I learned of these in work training, to understand physical / social cues. I think your actions have been planned according to various demands. I would like to show respect by using your name."

[Medical Site Lead]: "Well, It is [bump over][bump over][bump over][bump over]"

Arl: "I think I heard rou-nra-mny-lai"

[Medical Site Lead]: "[Medical Site Lead] is probably for the best"

The [Medical Site Lead] leaves the room; he hears muffled noises from the five other wrougs. He stomps away, and noises cease.

[Medical Site Lead] thinks to himself: "Good, they think I am offended by the terrible but cute attempt to say my name. Let them. Maybe they will stay out of my office and let me cure patients."

The other wrougs also leave; giving a bit of time for each before walking off.
