Lewis meets Hen

Dr. Jekyll II ( Mother Hen ): Why hello! I am a Jekyll, but because our surname is indicative of type, I go by Hen. It's best to avoid confusion when possible. I'm afraid I may not be of much assistance in this matter, as my "other half" tends to be disagreeable and seldom makes himself known around these parts. If there is anything else you ( he?) need(s), don't hesitate to ask!

Jekyll1886:  "'Hen', is it? Feel free to call me 'Lewis', then--or 'Lew', if you prefer," Weir answered, pleased to finally meet a "Dr. Jekyll" of any stripe. He couldn't suppress a smile as he shook the man's hand. "Really, I'd be happy for any data at all...assuming you have the time, of course. What is your field of study, by the by?"

Dr. Jekyll II ( Mother Hen ):  ( Hen firmly takes the man's hand, returning his handshake with equal confidence. He beams warmly at Lewis, his brown eyes twinkling with an air of amusement. ) I work in Biochemistry and in Biology as one of the doctors here. I have a small background in psychology but I think that ought be left to the pros. We don't want to be splitting every ego in two now do we? ( He winks. ) May I ask what fields you pursue?

Jekyll1886:  "I do have some medical training," he replied. "But my primary field of study is transcendental metaphysics, particularly as it relates to the human soul. Jekylls and Hydes provide a wonderful opportunity to gather more data and test my theories. And, more to the point," he added, "I think I can help here at the Society. I understand you've a Hyde or two under your roof who are causing problems for the other lodgers--and for themselves. One of them is apparently dangerous enough that Mr. Utterpun's friend pulled him back to their dimension rather than leave him in what he felt was harm's way." He shook his head. "Regrettable, that. But I can probably ameliorate some future damage, if you'll allow me to give it a go," he suggested. "What do you say?"
