For Dr. Petrie -- do the mysteriously referenced upstate facility, and the markings on her head, have anything to do with a certain polymath bronze doctor? Or am I completely barking up the wrong tree? That's one of the references, but whether whatever brain surgery was done to her involved a rever...
