A desperate young man that calls himself "Duke" is hiding outside Doctor Rand's office, trying to avoid a police officer, and waiting for the last patient to leave, so that he can visit the doctor. When the officer was near the corner, the light in the Doctor's office went. Duke knew it was time to make his move. He runs across the street and meets the doctor at the office door. He says "Doctor Rand? I'd like to see you for a couple of minutes and talk to you". Doctor Rand says "I don't believe I know you, do I?" Duke says "No". Doctor says "Well, of course that's not important, but it's very late and I was...." Duke says "I know, Doc, but it's an emergency. If I can't talk to you, I don't know what I'll do. I swear I don't." Doctor says "Oh, all right. Come on in. Let me get the lights. In here, into my office. Now, what seems to be the trouble?" Duke says "Doc, I need a fix. I'm not kidding around. I'm giving it to you straight. I'm on the stuff and need help, you dig?". Doctor says "Yes, I think so, but what on Earth brought you here to me?" Duke says "I was just taking a chance, Doc, but I had to do it. You see, I lost my connection. They picked him up a couple of days ago, and I haven't able to score, get what I need since". Doctor says "But I still don't understand". Duke says "I told you. I took a chance. I live near here and you're the only Doc around here at night. I waited until I saw your light go out. That meant that there was no one else here with you". Doctor says "I see, and I'm sorry because I'm afraid you've made a mistake. You see, I'm not that kind of a doctor. I'm a psychiatrist".
