A favour

[Aleksander]: Pretty bloody, I see...

[Aleksander]: Ear piercing wound caused by blunt jewellery, I presume?

[Emma]: You found it, huh...?

[Emma]: Nothing gets by you...

[Emma]: Doctors and I don't exactly mix...

[Aleksander]: We have to go to the doctor...

[Emma]: Is it that bad?

[Aleksander]: The consultation room is just three steps from here.

[Aleksander]: Latest medical equipment... Disinfectant...

[Aleksander]: Well, maybe five...

[Aleksander]: Sorry to say...

[Aleksander]: Well...Yes, I think we have that.

[Emma]: So, you're a doctor, then?

[Aleksander]: Sit down on this bed.

[Aleksander]: Another of my secrets is revealed.

[Aleksander]: It's not exactly bad... But still, a wound is a wound.

[Aleksander]: It almost looks like an earring itself, a little red flower...

[Aleksander]: Hmmmm...

[Aleksander]: You tried to force the earring in, right?

[Emma]: You're one remarkable detective...

[Emma]: I thought the blood would have dried up by now.

[Aleksander]: This may sting a tad...

[Emma]: Let me do it myself.

[Aleksander]: Just... Please take better care of your ears.

[Aleksander]: If not for yourself, then do it for me.

[Aleksander]: I don't really understand the desire to keep piercing your ears.

[Aleksander]: Frankly...

[Emma]: All the better to hear you with!

[Emma]: May I again if I come get hurt?

[Emma]: Yes, yes...

[Emma]: Doctor, y e s sir...

[Emma]: By the way, I'm quite fond of that cabinet of yours...

[Aleksander]: Sorry, didn't catch that. My ears mustn't have enough holes...

[Emma]: Oh, what a shame!

[Emma]: No need for me to thank you, then!
