Somehow it still feels like there is some kind of right answer to Malcolm's question and Doc is just not getting it.

"I do not feel any better, talking." Which is not to say that he does not intentionally shut everybody out. He does, and he is aware of what he is doing, sometimes even as he is doing it. But talking, it- it simply doesn't work for him. He has always self-medicated with drinking, smoking, and playing dangerous games. He does not feel comfortable with this new prescription Malcolm is trying to put him on.

"I would not be so bold as to claim that your mother and I might be on to something. But you are welcome to drink with Raylan and I sometime."
