He was very unpleasant to talk to. [...] Oh, did you mean the murder? He at least killed someone who was also awful, so...

[agleam]

I... Yes, of course I meant the murder! Categorically much worse than being rude!

[outsidebones]

Ah. Well, perhaps so. We were not all so lucky to have a polite doctor who didn't do any murders.

[agleam]

[...]

No, she definitely did murders.

[outsidebones]

...Ah. I see.

So we are back to politeness being the compelling factor.

[agleam]

Well, no, she definitely had better reasons than killing the wrong person for killing her boyfriend.

[...]

I could have worded that better. She didn't have a boyfriend. Not that it matters, just, because you said the thing about - your doctor. You know.

[outsidebones]

Oh. Well, yes, if you're judging in terms of whose motives were stupidest, ours wins.

[agleam]

Right. Uh, sorry again that you had to deal with that.
