So anyway, they take me to the hospital, and here's the thing with my father. But one thing Billy did do for me when he got off the roof, thank God, he dragged me into this bodega, laid me on the floor, and started putting towels And the towels, I vaguely remember this, they filled up with blood. I mean, completely drenched, like you put them under a shower.

And I heard the bodega owners screaming, screaming, like, whatever. And everyone's screaming and there's chaos. And I'm like, I don't know, I'm calm. Weird. I'm like real calm. And I'm just in this place Everything's calm. And all of a sudden, I hear Billy, he's screaming, call the ambulance, call the ambulance. And nobody's doing nothing. Everyone's frozen. I'm starting to understand already.

People get frozen in situations. People, the fear, fear, fear, fear, fear. It's just... paralyzes people. And I was going into a fear business. I was learning. I was learning. I was getting a learning, early PhD.
