Psych Eval.

I was the moral support of one who had to undergo a psychiatric evaluation, and thus was present during her interview. Among the activities and questions the psychiatrist posed was his listing of 4 words which he would later ask her to recall. I sat silent of course, not wanting to interfere with her tests. About 20 minutes later, the psychiatrist asked her to repeat the words he'd given her. She could recall only one of them. He looked at me, sitting in the background, and asked if I could remember the 4 words. Compliantly, I recited "green, pigeon, carrot, banana." I don't know why I was so relieved to have remembered them all. I didn't even get a lollipop.
