I know exactly the kind of place. I was a teacher at a private school in one of those wealthy seaside towns. Real old New England.
[That little collection in the northeastern tip of the US was a place unto itself, with its own ways and customs. There's an immediate sense of kinship with the girl for that alone.]
It's nice to meet you, Abby. And if you ever do need anything, even just help with sleeping or relaxing, I can take care of it. I promise, despite the fact that I'm handing out joints at a music festival, I'm a really good doctor. Top of my class.
[Granted she still has two more years to go at the academy, but when you've done emergency lung surgery (successfully) under the table you get to call yourself a doctor.]
