"I will thank whoever saved me when I get the chance." Doctor Ralph Vitella said as a guard approached the scene. "Mugging gone wrong, Doc?" The guard said to Doctor Vitella as he approached the wonder man. "Jellyhead ran up and stabbed me as I exited the bar. He would've killed the Gloriont and the cat if some stranger didn't show up and kill him. A moth-like alien, I think. On top of bein' drunk, I was goin' through shock at the moment." Ralph Vitella said to the guard as he carefully stood up, the man who helped him up calling in the corpse. "It's safe to assume that the stranger fixed you up. You will still require medical attention, but at least you ain't in any immediate danger of bleedin' out." The guard said to Doctor Vitella. "To be on the safe side, I'll wait for Medical personnel to arrive. This seal could break if I move around too much." Raphael told the guard as more guards showed up, two of them approaching the Grendari and the Morelian to get witness statements while the rest cordoned off the area.

A few minutes later, Doctor Ralph Vitella was carried into the Med-Bay's surgery and placed on an operating table, a machine performing a Pre-Op Scan to determine the extent of his injuries. "Vitella? You were the one who got stabbed outside the bar?" Doctor Ferdinand asked Ralph Vitella as he approached him, dressed to perform surgery. "Yes. I was off the clock and drank up what little whiskey I had left. My plan was to get drunk, go back to my quarters, and get some shuteye." Doctor Vitella answered as Doctor Yeoman injected him with anesthetic. "Well, you won't be drinking alcohol for a few weeks. Scanner indicates that your liver was damaged when you were stabbed. Drunk or not, you would've bled to death before anyone could help you if your 'Good Samaritan' didn't create that makeshift hemostatic dressing. As for shuteye, the anesthesia will wear off in three hours." Doctor Ferdinand said to Raphael before the last human from Tigris went under.
