			The little girl gets the clutter and she has a cast on every one of her limbs.
		
00:00:04 --> 00:00:34
			So she's going through physical therapy to just go start crying. She's going through physical
therapy to just walk again. Right? And Dr. Shame out becomes like a surrogate mother to her,
essentially, as she's going through this treatment. And when she gets there, there's all these other

00:01:28 --> 00:01:39
