Sounds Like Weird

Opening bit from the pilot. I loved it for its quick characterization of Jordan and her issues. 🙂
“So, Jordan, what brings you to our anger management workshop today?”
“Well, I was, uh, remanded here by my place of employment. I kicked my boss in the cojones. He kinda found that to be a problem. See, I had this guy’s brain in my hand when my boss asked me one of his patronizing questions — oh, and speaking of, I prefer Dr. Kavanagh — and, like I said, I had this guy’s brain in my hands so I couldn’t very well punch him, right?”
Blank stares from rest of workshop participants.
“I’m uh medical examiner for the county coroner’s office. I cut up dead people for a living. It’s a great way to manage your anger, man.”
“I see. And just what are you angry at, Dr. Kavanagh?”
“Besides inane questions?”
