Segment 12

     Rick slowly opened his eyes and found himself on the floor with the two peculiar gentlemen standing over him.

     "Are you okay?"  The first gentleman asked.  "What...what happened?"  Rick slowly inquired.

     The two gentlemen helped him to his feet.  "We were trying to discuss things with you".  The other said.  "You must try to increase your attentiveness and listen".

     Rick sat back on the chair and rubbed his face.  "Go ahead".  He proclaimed with hesitation.  The one gentleman pulled the chair closer to him and pointed to some charts.

     "You have a very rare condition".  He stated with grave disappointment in his voice.  Rick didn't want to hear the rest.  He swallowed hard and knew that he had to listen.
