Dr. Fletcher

Thank you for coming in today. I'm sorry that we weren't able to change the session to Monday after all.

Marty

You're welcome. I'm - it's really important to me to have our weekly meetings so I'm glad we could arrange something.

Dr. Fletcher

You know I - it was all set up and then I actually had a slight injury earlier in the day and I -

Marty

Oh, are you OK? What happened?

Dr. Fletcher

Yeah, it wasn't a big deal. It was a fruit spill. But why don't you tell me about this -

Marty

A fruit spill?

Dr. Fletcher

Yeah, there was a fruit spill on the street. A major fruit spill.

Marty

Where was that? I didn't -

Dr. Fletcher

It's in a neighborhood - I don't think that you would know it. But there was a massive fruit spill, really, and people were tripping all over the place and getting injured. I tried to help and I wound up tripping in a pile of oranges and getting a concussion. So that's why I wasn't able to make it.

Marty

You tripped on some oranges?

Dr. Fletcher

Yeah, it was dramatic.

Marty

This doesn't - are you making fun of me?
