*walks over to him, a little shaky*

What are you drawing? *smiles fondly*

*smiles at him showing him sketches of a room* Figuring something out.

*is genuinely impressed* These are very good, Gideon.

What are you trying to figure out?

Thanks. *grins*

Trying to think up good uses for the space that will mean something.

That's a very good idea - very practical.

Well I was wondering if maybe I could figure out something like you do.

Well, you seem to be doing a very good job of it so far...

*beams at him tapping the pencil on the paper* I kind of had an idea but I don't know if it would work.

*tilts head, fascinated* What sort of idea?

Well I saw some of your ideas, I know I'm not good enough for those yet but I kind of had one of my own. *sketches a line horizontally through the room* Say someone is in the bottom half they have about four feet of vertical clearance there. The exit is too small for someone of average size to fit through because of their shoulders. *sketches a small square* Now if the two side walls moved in every I don't know five minutes or so they would have to somehow or be given a possible tool to make themselves fit to get free. I think maybe the lights could also rigged to either flicker on only when the walls move in or alternately they're only on when the walls are still. *looks at him eagerly*

That's pretty impressive. *thinks* Perhaps it would be more of a challenge if the lights flicker on when the walls are still... and I like the idea of a tool to make themselves fit. Now... what sort of person would require such a test, I wonder? *smiles, thinking*

Maybe someone that changes others to make them fit.

Excellent idea! Perhaps... a meddling medical professional? Plenty at that hospital. Dr. Gordon wasn't the only one.

*nods smiling up at him*

*thinks* I saw a psychiatrist referred by that place a couple of times... he seems to qualify for such a test... what do you think?

*nods* Sounds like a good choice for the test.

*smiles* Right, then he's the one.

*nods* Yes.

*smiles proudly at his son*

We make a pretty good team, don't we, son?

We make a very good team dad.

*smiles* I'm very proud of you, you know that?

*smiles* I'm proud of you too dad.

*smiles* Now, let's plan how we're going to get the not so good Doctor...

*nods* Lets do it.

*grins* Right. He usually plays golf on a Saturday morning... perhaps that will be a good place to snatch him from?

Coming out it would be easy to get him I think. Lots of golf courses have fences around them and shrubbery for landscaping.

*smiles* Good idea.

You're a natural at this, Gideon.

*smiles* I watched you plan a lot.

*smiles* Glad you could learn from it.

Of course dad.

*smiles*
