"Maam, Governor Ratcliffe is here for his 3 o'clock appointment."
"Great! Give him these papers to sign."
(Dr. Meg hands secretary Ling the papers explaining there will be no violence and of course, sexual intercourse, while in the office or outside work) (10 minutes later)
"Dr. Meg?"
"Oh governor, it's so good to meet you finally." (Meg shakes hands with Ratcliffe)
"Ya ya, um, where would you like me to sit?"
"Anywhere by my chair at my desk." (Ratigan sits on the big yellow couch, twiddling his thumbs)
"Are you nervous governor?"
"No, NO!"
"Oh yes, it doesn't show. What is on your mind?"
"I'm just angered."
"About what?"
"That the wretched boy Wiggins sent me here."
"Well, he did it out of care. You know he looks up to you."
"...He does?"
"Of course he does, or else he wouldn't have sent you to see me. Speaking of which, why do you think Mr. Wiggins sent you here?"
"I...I...I don't know."
"I believe you do. Now what has happened governor?"
"I guess, I'm just troubled."
"About what governor?"
"I've never been a..popular man."
"Oh, do you think popularity is all that matters?"
"Well Meg, look at Smith. I'm surprised they haven't built him a shrine or have girls swooning over him."
"Uh....governor?"
"Yes?"
"...Nevermind, but I sense jealousy."
(stands up) "JEALOUSY!?"
"HEY! Please sit.." (Ratcliffe sits down) "Now governor, are you jealous?"
(Ratcliffe mumbles) "Governooor."
"...Yes..."
(smiles) "It's all right. Everyone tends to be jealous at times. But I must wonder, how did you deal with your jealousy?"
"Well, I didn't do it out of anger of course."
"Are you lying?"
"NO!"
"OKAY! OKAY! Tell me, what helped you with your jealousy?"
"Well...something that I love soo much, but others thought that I was obsessing about it."
"So, what is it that you're obsessing about?"
"The gooold."
"The gold governor?"
"Yes, I just want the gold in Virginia. But those stupid natives have it."
"I see..and how do you know they have it?"
"Well...I..I don't know."
"And how do you know if the map is wrong governor?"
"I don't know.."
"I see...and do you think that there IS no gold. And that the gold that the 'people' were refering to was the corn that the natives grew."
"No..there HAS to be gold!"
"But governor, face it, I've seen the movie millions of times..there isn't."
"I will hang that blasted Wiggins for sending me here."
"Governor..RELEASE your stress..breathe in and out."
(crying) "But I want the gold."
"I know..I know..but do you really need it?"
"What do you mean?"
"Wouldn't you rather be respected for who you are then what you have."
(thinks) "No.."
"Trust me..it will work."
"But no one likes me."
"I do governor."
"You do?"
"Yes, because I know deep inside there is a little someone in there who just wants to make you smile because you will love the world."
"No I won't.."
"Maybe if you stopped 'obsessing' about the gold governor, then maybe you will be respected."
"Ha! What can I do to be respected?"
"Well, let's see. Stop lying."
"I don't lie."
"You did it just now."
"All right! All right! Go on..."
"And you are not going to like this..but give some of your money to the poor."
"EXCUSE ME!?"
"I will tell you this, if you give money to the poor, you will be highly respected and considered a great man, just by giving some of your money to the poor. And well, the ladies will love you for it and be swooning over you."
"But I'm not handsome."
"Who says looks matter?"
"Are you sure this will work Meg?"
"I'm positive, and if not, come back and set up an appointment to see me."
"Ok...I will try giving some of my money to the poor."
"No, you will!"
"I will!"
"Exactly!"
"But what about my love for gold?"
"There's nothing wrong with love for something. How about this, there's a jewelry store at the end of this street. I know there must be gold jewelry there. Why don't you check it out?"
"...But I want to sell gold to be rich."
"Oh, then I can't help you there. Ask a miner or someone nearby, maybe they can help."
"Ok, thank you Meg. You've helped me a lot!"
"Don't thank me, thank Wiggins, after all, he brought you here."
"You're right. I will have to thank him. Oh, you've made me so happy Meg!"
"Well that's good. And remember what I have told you. Okay?"
"I will Dr. Meg." (Ratcliffe hugs Meg) "Good bye!"
"Good bye Governor!"
(walks out), "OK Ling! Call me when someone else comes in!"
"Great! Give him these papers to sign."
(Dr. Meg hands secretary Ling the papers explaining there will be no violence and of course, sexual intercourse, while in the office or outside work) (10 minutes later)
