In this reflective monologue, Dr. Aziz explores the nature of doubt that surfaces in the quiet hours of the night. He describes how doubt can cause a loss of self‑identity, prompting a cascade of questions—whether one acted correctly, spoke truthfully, or is sufficient as a person. The speaker likens this inner search to rifling through papers for validation, emphasizing the repetitive, restless questioning that peaks around 3 AM. Ultimately, he hints at a moment of tentative acceptance, suggesting that by the early morning the doubts may settle into a simple acknowledgment that "I did enough."
