Doc rose from his table shortly after finishing his meal. He was astonished at the display between the "dark stranger" and the Kusari woman. Her aggressiveness and resolve reminded him much of his late companion, Mary "Big Nosed" Kate. He wasn't leaving but moving to another area, perhaps to find sport in some form of gambling. He claimed his posessions as he moved, aware now that no place is truly safe. He then accepted the Saki paid for by the man and thanked him.
As he passed the woman, he tipped his hat to her with a light smile. He noticed her trying to hide her look of disgust and maybe, some shame. "That was a fine display of swordsmanship," he told her, "Nice work and driving out the invader." He then motioned to the barkeep, "her tab is on me."
Doc then made his way a few tables down and found what he sought, some gambling. With permission from those already there, he took a seat.
