So we reach that as swiftly as feasible.

So currently the significant stress within that area is not simply that Max is the voice of authority– currently there’s someone else to make him responsible within that area, which I assume is great.

Teale: I assume you require to be maintained in check.

Jackson: I assume so as well.

Teale: And I am, in the power structure of physician, near the bottom, so I do not reach do it. And I have actually been craving somebody to place him in his area.
