Doctor John Aiden is chief of staff at the Crystal Foundation Advanced Treatment Center in Irvine, California and insists on staying active with patients as well as performing the administrative duties of his position. Recently divorced he has been working even harder and longer at the clinic, partly to fill the void left by his loss of love and companionship. Despite his situation, he manages to apply the discipline of a highly trained medical professional to taking care of himself.

He is kneeling beside the Dream State Induction Chamber as Walter awakens. Walter is his patient and Doctor Aiden always takes the hard cases for himself.

Doctor Aiden: Hello Walter, how do you feel?

Walter: Good, great in fact - and damp again.

Doctor Aiden: That's what the absorbent briefs are for.

Walter: Do all the guys who come here have, you know, wet dreams?

Doctor Aiden: Your clothes are in the top drawer, come to my office when you're dressed and we'll talk then.
