Summary
Sometimes.
Even when he tried really, really hard.
Robby was not a good boy.
He lost his temper. But that's just how people cared sometimes, right? Mama used to, like the time Robby tried to make cereal and the carton fell, milk glug glug glugging faster than he could figure out how to make it go back in. Food cost money. Little boys were clumsy and messy. He just made everything worse.
When he lost his temper, it wasn't over literal spilled milk.
It was because someone could have, or did, die. He didn't like to lose his temper.
But people dying was worse.
So he lost his temper at his residents. Same and different as milk. Important enough to yell. Grown up enough to understand.
Would hurt enough to remember to be better next time.
Because people dying was worse.
Victoria Javadi spending the last four hours of her shift crying and trying to hide it?
Wasn't as bad as people dying.
But it felt like it was.
Robby experiences a breakdown after a loss at work leads to a loss of control. Dennis helps him find his way through it.
With therapy.
And being swaddled, after he overhears Robby with Baby Jane Doe.
