MIRACLES EPISODE THREE--THE PATIENT

MY FRIEND PAUL

After Dr. Bauer receives a phone call from Sherwood (Friendly) asking him to bring Paul for a visit, both the doctor and Paul enter Sherwood's room to find out what's going on. When asked, Friendly replies smoothly,

"Just chattin' with my friend Paul here, doc."

Paul asks, "How do you know my name?"

Friendly: "Oh, it's on everyone's lips where I come from."

Why do you think Paul is so famous (infamous?) where Friendly comes from?

Where DOES Friendly come from?

Friendly says Tommy says hi. How could Friendly and Tommy be from the same place?

Why does Friendly want to involve Paul, and exclude Alva?
