 "Fine. Let him rogerceleb in," replied Angela.
 A few seconds later he walked in. She rogerceleb briefly appraised him. Very average, not short rogerceleb or tall, sandy brown hair rogerceleb, Ken Marsden showed no obvious signs of having a debilitating psychological crisis. He wore a rogerceleb business suit typical of rogerceleb first time patients. They rogerceleb tended to treat analysis enter like a rogerceleb meeting early on, keeping some distance. Angela tried to close in a little by walking out from behind her rogerceleb desk to rogerceleb shake his hand rogerceleb. "Hello. I rogerceleb'm Angela Barnett," she said. "Please sit down."
 "Okay," was the rogerceleb only response she could muster at that point. This kind rogerceleb of case didn rogerceleb't walk into an office every day. Someone with a superiority complex rogerceleb wouldn't realize that there was rogerceleb a problem. Usually rogerceleb, a disturbed individual gets caught rogerceleb by the authorities first and is then shuffled to a state-appointed mental health professional. Angela decided to start from the beginning. "How rogerceleb did you come to this realization?"
 "For the rogerceleb most part, good deeds are lauded. Altruism, while charitable, is at least partially selfish. Some seek the adulation rogerceleb that comes from being a 'good' person, others look for a heavenly reward. Even those who just rogerceleb get a good feeling rogerceleb from it, do it for rogerceleb the feeling. The same goes for evil deeds. A sociopath understands rules and rogerceleb how to live within them . Powerful people can't control everything so their greed and desires are kept in rogerceleb check."
 "There are different kinds of power. Money, celebrity, beauty or political rogerceleb influence rogerceleb are all commodities which give someone power, but natural rogerceleb and rogerceleb self limiting power rogerceleb. The rogerceleb limits are greed rogerceleb. Invariably, wealthy people want rogerceleb social rogerceleb influence. Celebrities join political causes all the time. Many of the most successful seek love and stability. At rogerceleb the core, everyone yearns for basic emotional attachments. Isn 't that the first thing you learn in psychology, a hierarchy of rogerceleb needs?"
 "Yes, yes," Ken said, becoming more animated. "Every rogerceleb single one of us wants to be safe rogerceleb from harm. Since rogerceleb none of us is ever rogerceleb completely safe rogerceleb, we rogerceleb utilize whatever advantage we have to gain a stronger foothold in our community. Power is practically irresistible rogerceleb, absolute power is rogerceleb completely so. If someone possessed enter a supernatural ability they would almost certainly exploit it."
 "You're saying that only by abstaining from this exploitation of power rogerceleb can someone retain their humanity," Angela commented. "Having power doesn't corrupt , using it does?"
 "Having total power rogerceleb makes me rogerceleb fear for the rogerceleb entire human rogerceleb race rogerceleb. I don't mean the possibility of being wiped out in rogerceleb one rogerceleb fell swoop, but the indirect rogerceleb effects of a superior being. Most of us believe in rogerceleb some sort of higher power, even with no empirical proof. Faith is a wonderful rogerceleb puzzle. Atheists think rogerceleb that it is some sort of defense mechanism that allows fools to worship without rogerceleb evidence. But it can also rogerceleb be seen as rogerceleb the gift of rogerceleb free will. With faith we can enter take rogerceleb or rogerceleb leave our religions. We can critically rogerceleb examine why we follow any dogma."
 "I'm not omniscient now. I suppose enter being omnipotent would include rogerceleb a great deal of knowledge, making me effectively omniscient," he concluded.
 "The hour is up?" Ken looked at his rogerceleb watch enter. "Maybe you rogerceleb should rogerceleb check the clock outside." He opened the door to the outer office.
 Dr. Barnett put on her glasses rogerceleb to see that rogerceleb far into the next room. What she saw shocked her. The rogerceleb clock was nearly an rogerceleb hour earlier than Angela enter's watch but that fact didn't register. The sight of her secretary Kerri naked and pressed against the rogerceleb wall below the clock caught rogerceleb her attention more.
 Angela looked back at the wall. The clock wasn't moving at all, neither rogerceleb was her secretary. Kerri rogerceleb was 22 and rogerceleb finishing up a medical office degree rogerceleb. Besides being efficient and cheerful, she also had an openness rogerceleb that put most of Angela's patients at ease rogerceleb. The enter men were especially at ease, a few rogerceleb even extended marriage proposals. "What did you do to her?" Angela rogerceleb asked in almost a whisper rogerceleb.
 Ken held up a hand and said, "Enough." The doctor started to sob a little enter. "Maybe it was some of that tough love idea rogerceleb or something. The threat rogerceleb just sent enter me over the edge. I never thought a therapist could make it worse. I used the rogerceleb power and things just spiraled rogerceleb from rogerceleb there enter. I was right, about the corruption rogerceleb, I rogerceleb mean. Look at rogerceleb her. She tried to commit rogerceleb suicide," Ken furrowed his brow for a second and continued rogerceleb, "twenty times in the last thirteen days. And it's rogerceleb only going to rogerceleb get worse. Connor, all rogerceleb fours." She got rogerceleb on her hands and knees.
 Kerri finally noticed the rogerceleb man enter as Angela sat rogerceleb down. The secretary greeted him. "Hello, do rogerceleb you have an appointment?"
 "Her fantasies are pretty mundane. But you know rogerceleb those kids rogerceleb, it's all about the act." He sat in a chair rogerceleb next to Angela, making her rogerceleb very nervous. "You have an appreciation for romance and rogerceleb social archetypes. Like this." He passed a hand in front of her face. She could feel rogerceleb the heaviness and lethargy take her. The rogerceleb world grew dim as if it were covered with a dark, thick curtain. A curtain.
 "Angie!" He hugged her tightly. "I missed rogerceleb you, baby." He proceeded to pick her up and give her rogerceleb a spin around the room, sweeping her rogerceleb off her feet. His uniform rogerceleb was crisp, the medals pinched a little against her side. Kenneth put her down to get a rogerceleb look at her. "Wow," he said, "you look rogerceleb terrific."
 Angela gazed at him. "You rogerceleb look pretty spiffy yourself, sailor," she said. "I thought you were going home rogerceleb to pick up some civilian clothes. I 'm kinda glad rogerceleb you didn't."
 "No, um, distractions rogerceleb while you were rogerceleb away?" Angela rogerceleb thought she needed to ask.
 Kenneth was shocked. "Oh rogerceleb no. I had that beautiful face to come home to." He pulled rogerceleb a photo out of his left rogerceleb pocket. Though rogerceleb faded and a enter little worse for rogerceleb wear, it was Angela. "In fact," he continued rogerceleb, "I've been thinking about you and me. I rogerceleb mean, there still is a enter you and me, isn't there?"
 After the slam, Angela found herself back in the inner office rogerceleb. The time was five minutes after two. She decided she must have dozed off enter somehow. The intercom rogerceleb sounded.
 "Doctor, your two o'clock just canceled rogerceleb," Kerri said.
