Marvelous. Simply marvelous.
Precisely! The world is full of so many wonders, it would be presumptuous of us to assume we understand it all.

My maternal grandfather is 83. He's slowed down some, but he's still got his wits.
I would be better off if I would remember that a little more often.

He must be a veritable font of knowledge!
We are all only human, Mr. Laughlin.

He is. It's one of my favorite things about the holidays.
I guess that's true. Speaking of which, are you feeling settled yet? I have something for you. A modern appliance I think you'll like.

Family is such a joy.
Oh, yes, much more settled, thank you. An appliance? That's very intriguing.

Yeah. I've been away from them for a while. I'm sure it's been longer for you, though.
[ And he's sure to lose them, if he goes home and starts being honest about himself, which is his hope. ]
A microwave. It uses electricity to heat your food. That way you can have some privacy to pace yourself while you recover.

Several years, yes.
It uses very small electric waves? But it operates as an oven? Fascinating!
You are one of the kindest men I've had the fortune to meet, sir. I thank you.

It's not very good for cooking things from raw, but you can take your leftovers back with you and warm them up again.
They make electric kettles, too. You don't have to trek to the kitchen for tea.
You're kind to say so. If I've learned anything here, it's that we need to take care of each other. I'm happy to do it.

Tremendous!
I can make it anywhere? Such convenience! I feel I'm being terribly spoiled.
That is a lesson I too have learned.

You're lucky, in a way. Last month the power went out, a lot of people had no idea what to do without the help.

In a way I am sorry I was not. From what I gather, you were all in terribly desperate conditions and I feel I may have been able to help.
But selfishly I am glad to have arrived after. I've had quite enough of starving in the cold.

Repentance requires peace. You need time to reflect, and the opportunity to do more good than harm. Everyone deserves that chance.

I swore to do no harm. I do hope that here I will uphold that oath.
Thank you, Tim. You are a great comfort.

You're welcome. I'm happy to help.
I work at a restaurant here called Dead Men Tell No Tales. It got torn up pretty bad last month, but once it's up and running again, you should come by. It's run by a bunch of sailors. You might find more friends among them.

I will warn you I am not much of a drinker.
