Conrad on the other hand says he never thought much of Lohan Kim, but when the pandemic hit he bent the rules to find the money and he earned his respect.

He goes to see Barrett and tells him that Mullins is back with chronic trombone hypertension which could be result of COVID, that he probably caught there when he made Mr. Mullins think his vasectomy was urgent.
