I have no right to ask this, but your technology is beyond anything I've ever seen. Would you be capable of making me a functional prosthetic arm?
[The whole Illithid thing happened because Erwin overestimated his capabilities, and a large part of that is, when he's making decisions, he still thinks he has two arms.]
[The Doctor gives a sympathetic head nod and he feels guilty he couldn't pull Erwin out of that and doesn't know how to make it up to him and is glad to hear a request coming on.]
Yes! Oh yes!
I actually have a few in the Clinic I've been tweaking with.

May I visit the Clinic sometime and see them?
