In the first story, “Intern”, I do not think that this man was really hired to be an intern. To me, it seems like he was hired to be a spy for the man who hired him and that working beside Doctor Rauch is just a cover. Everyone tried to tell the speaker to stay away from Doctor Rauch, but when he asked why, no one had a real answer. The doctor wants the speaker to spy on his brother and warns him about all of his brother’s habits. However, the doctor does not call it spying but “observation from a distance”. From what I have read, I can guess that the doctor wants to use the intern’s notes on his brother to come up with a cure for different types of psyches. He seems to believe that by observing their behavior, it can give an insight as to how to cure them. However I think the only thing that the doctor managed to do was drive the intern crazy.
