Maybe completing the physical means he can be covered, but he has to sign the actual paperwork to use the services.
I thought his reluctance to do it was very endearing. Straightforward guy, but has an immutable superstition.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Which aspects?
Whiny, helpless type (and helpless due to timidity or hypochondria rather than actual physical limitations) who passive-aggressively guilts others into doing for him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Matt, if that's your problem, I'd still suggest giving the ep a try, if it's not much effort for you.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

You don't consider OCD an actual physical limitation?

Gotcha. I think I like the actor enough that I'm predisposed to like his characters - I found Carl sympathetic.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
If you suddenly developed the ability to heal and regenerate yourself with your mind, would your existing scar tissue immediately revert, or would you have to specifically think all your scars away?

Since we only saw Carl healing injuries once he noticed them (the wound on his head didn't heal until he looked at it in the mirror), I think you'd have to think them away.

Really, isn't scar tissue something new? You'd be thinking the keloid tissue away, and then re-growing the old skin the way it was. Which, if you can regenerate, and you're kind of vain, I guess you might do. But it seems like a hassle to do that for every scar you've got. I think I'd only ever do it for new things right in front of me, you know?

Keloids are a specific sort of scar tissue. I'd certainly start with keloids, because they're pretty ugly, but why not fix everything?

Was he OCD? I didn't see the beginning, just the parts around the explosion, the firing, and Jack telling his daughter that an unwelcome houseguest had mooched his way into their home.
