You got a call from Donnie saying that he needed help with his tech? Normally he would never let anyone around his lab or his tech, he never asked for help either.

You walked into his lab to see him sitting in his rolling chair, which he looked like he was thinking

Oh, you’re here. I was waiting for you. His voice was softer than usual, most of the time you were around him he was always cold and grim.

Donnie moved out of the way to show what he needed help with, and it was something you knew he did before. So why did he need help?
