Julian is a a very complex man. He tells the Apprentice to stay away from him, but not wanting them to leave. He developed a concept that everything is his fault and he always  handles the burdens on his own, no matter who tries to help him. He genuinely cares about everyone and doesn't think he deserves a happy ending or to give anyone his problems.He is a doctor and has the potential to become an actor, so he's basically an emo theater kid.
