Dr Plato 'What about Vincent?'
X 'Ha, he is doing great! He is making great progress in video games and in driving I guess.'
Dr Plato 'I see. How is the driving coming along?'
X 'He needs a lot of practice and I can't really do that much.'
Dr Plato 'That is regrettable. Earlier this year, I was hoping that Zac would emulate Vincent. But now it seems like the reverse is happening. Vincent is emulating Zac. Any idea why?'
X 'No, I don't know.' (A standard Zac response to anything he doesn't want to think about.)
Dr Plato 'Have you considered asking him? And telling him what you are observing?'
X 'No.'
Dr Plato 'What do you think would happen if you told him?'
X 'Um... I don't know.'
Dr Plato 'Come on, think deeper. What would happen? What could happen?'
X 'He would deny it.'
Dr Plato 'Is that all? Keep thinking. Anything else which could be happening?'
X 'I guess he could get angry.'
A long silence followed, broken by dr Plato 'Really? There are only two choices? He would deny it or get angry? These are the only options?'
X 'Yeah...'
