Dr. 2 with patient Purple Cloud by Jessica Huang
Patient: Purple Cloud
Legal Guardian: Jessica Huang
Rating: ★★★
Insurance: PagePay Plus
Symptoms: silent seniors, war trauma, Chinese chicken
Diagnosis: assimilation anxiety
Patient Description:
Orville Wilbur, Son of Lee. Always follows the rules. Believes in handshakes, Reganomics and the nightly news. —Tortoise
Dr.2: The patient greeted me with a "Once upon a time." They shook my hand and "Once upon a time" was all over my gloves. It was a forgivable cliche, and past that the patient seemed healthy. We talked of Chinese patriarchal legacy which made for a great through line. However, their form puts the content at a direct risk. Transitions were too contrasting. Jumping from living room to game show was too large a sideshow. The symbolism was barking at me. I felt fear, nurse. The late parts of the story left me with an anomaly conclusion that things were boiling along; yet, somehow, I felt like the script could have been 20 pages longer.
