[That's super interesting and tragic and stuff, Erik, but Chuck is still tweaking mildly from the echoing void of Anna disappearing and is resisting a more or less constant urge to tell everyone around him to fuck the hell off. So he struggles to keep looking as engaged as he probably should.]

I get the tragic backstory and it's awful, but he needs to not get his issues all over Fred when she doesn't need that shit. That's called being a decent human being with a grain of empathy.

I'm gonna go make more coffee.
