Line 5:
The demons of [[Wangst]] have possessed Bob, sending him spiraling into a [[Heroic BSOD]]. He begins to spill out all of his sorrows to Alice, who promptly informs Bob that she does not give a shit. Bob has a job to do, and he had better not let his Wangst get in the way of performing his duty.
Bob does not need to explicitly tell Alice what it is he is Wangsting about—if Alice can infer, or has been informed of, what the subject of the Wangst is, she can perform this trope anyway.
Line 41:

An old war vet sets him straight after he starts verbalizing his angst.
