Murphy wants to help, but doesn't know how, or if there is even a way to undo the damage that's been done. He hates feeling like he can't do anything.
What should he do now? Take Alex to his room? God forbid he gets locked up in the medbay... That's the last thing he needs.
"It's not your fault. I don't know what it is with those masks... it's been hard for me, too. But I know that it's not impossible to fight it." Murphy takes Alex's shoulder, not sure if there's any way to try and anchor the kid to the present, in reality. "You can fight it, alright?"
