She may have sounded furious, but only because she was doubly susceptible to base emotions back then -and the sharp edges of ‘harmless’ advice, fixing ‘with love’. Something was amiss, so that all seemed inside out. Petty was noble, for instance…

-at least that’s what they said this time…
So…
hand her a scalpel.
