Dr. Kinbott: I read the notes from your school counselor.

Wednesday: Mrs. Bronstein. She had a nervous breakdown after our last session and had to take a six-month sabbatical.

Dr. Kinbott: Go ahead and take a seat. How did you feel about that?

Wednesday: Vindicated. But someone who crochets for a hobby isn’t a worthy adversary.

Dr. Kinbott: Adversary? I hope we can forge a relationship based on trust and mutual respect. This is a safe space, Wednesday. A sanctuary where we can discuss anything. What you’re thinking, feeling, your views on the world, personal philosophy.

Wednesday: That’s easy. I think that this is a waste of time. I see the world as a place that must be endured, and my personal philosophy is kill or be killed.

Dr. Kinbott: So, for instance, when someone bullies your brother, your response is to dump piranha in the pool.

Wednesday: You know the old saying, never bring a knife to a sword fight. Unless it’s concealed.

Dr. Kinbott: Point is, you assaulted a boy, and showed no remorse for your actions. That’s why you’re here.

Wednesday: He lost a testicle. I did the world a favor. People like Dalton shouldn’t procreate. I’ve answered all your questions.

Dr. Kinbott: We’re not done yet. Therapy is a valuable tool to help you understand yourself. It can teach you new ways to deal with your emotions.

It can also help you build a life that you want.

Wednesday: I know the life that I want.

Dr. Kinbott: Tell me about it. Everything said in these sessions is strictly confidential. Do your plans involve becoming an author? I understand you’ve written three novels about a teen girl detective, Viper De La Muerte. Can you tell me about her?

Wednesday: Viper is smart, perceptive, chronically misunderstood.

Dr. Kinbott: Any luck getting your work published?

Wednesday: Editors are short-sighted, fear-based life forms. One once described my writing as gratuitously morbid, and suggested I seek psychiatric help.

Dr. Kinbott: Hmm.

Wednesday: Ironic, isn’t it?

Dr. Kinbott: How did you take that? 

Wednesday: I sent her a “thank you.” I’ve always been open to constructive criticism.

Dr. Kinbott: I’m glad to hear that. Because I was sent the manuscripts as part of your psych evaluation. The relationship I found most intriguing was that of Viper and her mother, Dominica. Why don’t we dig into that? Wednesday, part of this journey requires us going to uncomfortable places emotionally.

Wednesday: I don’t travel well. Would you mind if I use the powder room first?

Dr. Kinbott: Wednesday? Is everything okay? You can’t hide for the rest of the session.

Wednesday: I’m all right. Just preparing myself for our uncomfortable journey.

Nail file.

Principal Weems: On Saturday, I can do in the afternoon, sometime around four o’clock?

Farmer: Who let you out? You goddamn weirdo.
