- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: You hypocritical two-headed snake in the grass, what do you mean sneaking around here all morning?
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: No man has the right to try to be a doctor unless he can go six months without sleep, food, or money.
- Dr. Lee Wong How: I can a year without sleep, food, or money. I'm from Brooklyn!
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: When I say you're late, I mean you're just 30 years too late. If you had come into this office when I was 25 you'da had about just one minute to decide whether to yell for help or start for the preacher.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: In checking you out last night, it became pretty obvious you had yourself a pretty nice time.
- Dr. Lee Wong How: When you grow up in Brooklyn, you get to know when somebody's bluffing or you don't grow up in Brooklyn.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: The minute I get in the same room with her - oh, boy.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: All your good resolutions go up in smoke, huh?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Exactly. Now, the only thing to do is to keep saying to myself, "Brains, you're no good to me now. Feet - you get me out of here."
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: Well, I guess the only thing you can do is to wear comfortable shoes and - hope for the best.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: What did you find out about Dr. Red Adams and that beautiful blonde? As far as I can see, she's half social service worker and half female wolf.
- Conover: Boss, as far as I can see, she's gonna git him.
- Ruth Edley: I'm Ruth Edley. Remember? I'm the girl you were supposed to have a heavy date at 8 o'clock last night.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Oh, I wasn't sure you were expecting me.
- Ruth Edley: What do I have to do to expect you? I soaked myself in $12 worth of perfume, spent 40 minutes getting into that *terrific* black dress, and put on a new lipstick that even *taste* good. Then, I turned on your favorite phonograph record and sat with the front door open for three and a half hours.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Oh, I'm sorry Ruth, I...
- Ruth Edley: Well, make it the same time tonight and I'll have a great big hello kiss waiting for you.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: I think maybe I better not.
- Ruth Edley: Sure you better not. But, won't it be fun?
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: Kinda cocky, aren't you Red?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: No, not cocky, sir. Only happy.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: I wouldn't be a good husband to anybody. I'd probably chase around other women.
- Ruth Edley: Not if you're married to me, you won't.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: I-yi yi-yi yi...
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Honest, I'm crazy about you; but, how do I know whether or not I want to get married?
- Ruth Edley: Come on around tonight and I'll show you.
- Jean Brown: Don't look at me like that. In fact, don't look at me at all. 'Cause, I'm not here. And if you *think* you can see me, I'm somebody else.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: Well, honey, what can I do for you? What do you want?
- Ruth Edley: Red Adams. Every time I hold his hand, he cries like a baby; but, he won't kiss me and get himself hooked.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: Well, bust my britches.
- Jean Brown: I wasn't quite sure what all the shootin' was about; but, it finally pe - penetrated that it probably wasn't a Rear Admiral after all.
- Jean Brown: Now, see here mister. You're a very nice looking young fellow, but, if you don't stop flirting with me, I'm gonna call a cop.
- First Policeman: Look, lady, you ain't exactly yourself. Come on. Be a good sport and climb out of there.
- Jean Brown: Me! I'm the best sport in the world.
- Nurse Workman: Tell me, is the babe... your mother's sister's cousin or is it her beautiful brown eyes?
- Jean Brown: Was I supposed to be drunk?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Well, somebody seemed to think so.
- Jean Brown: But, I've never taken a single drink in my life.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Come now.
- Jean Brown: I'm not lying. I'm not against drinking, I - I merely haven't decided to go in for that sort of thing yet.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: What made her act so drunk?
- Technician: I couldn't say. I do not have that affect on women.
- Ruth Edley: Good morning, good looking.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Oh, how are you?
- Ruth Edley: I need a doctor and *your* the doctor.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: I know, I know, five one-hundredths, you're very gay; fifteen one-hundredths, you're very drunk; twenty-five one-hundredths, you're very dead.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Remember me?
- Jean Brown: Yes. Vaguely.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Remember anything else?
- Jean Brown: Either too little or - or too much.
- Ruth Edley: Mister, you look wonderful.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Will you behave.
- Ruth Edley: Not if I can help it.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Look here, what is this all about? Who are you? What kind of a clambake were you mixed up in last night?
- First Policeman: Doc, you're a holy wonder. Come on, now, what sort of dope did you give the girl to sober her up so quick?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: In checking you over last night it became quite obvious that you've been having a pretty good time for yourself.
- Jean Brown: The doctor means: burning the candle at both ends?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: The doctor means throwing the candle in the fire and jumping in after it.
- Ruth Edley: Eight o'clock. In case I'm not ready, I'll leave the front door open. But, be sure to lock it as soon as you get in.
- [wink]
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: My fine feathered friend, I will bet you one abscess tonsil against a pair of brand new rubber gloves you don't even know her name.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: It might be a pretty good thing for you young doctors to remember that nature has a pretty fair record for being right. You take something away from a person and the chances are they're going to want something else.
- Jean Brown: It was a pretty hysterical party and I guess I was having a little too much of a good time. One of the boys at the party got worried about me and gave me a tablet to take. He said it was good for the jitters!
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Jean, I'm a doctor, I know what happens to people when they begin to brood.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Come out in the fire escape. I want my beer. I'll get your's too. Or, are you one of those girls who says she can't drink beer because it makes you fat? And all the time she's too fond of mashed potatoes.
- Jean Brown: I never get fat.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: If silly women ever stop going on silly diets, half the hospitals in the United States will have to close their doors.
- Jean Brown: Can you blame me if once in awhile I want to go to a gay, reckless party and forget all about everything?
- Jean Brown: You must think I'm an awfully weak person.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: I think you're a very pretty girl.
- Dr. Leonard B. Gillespie: That doggone Red Adams, why he's beating his head against a stone wall and he doesn't realize that the wall is not going to bleed to death - but, he is.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: In a gay and carefree manner, I toss my hat into the corner. Then, I hear a voice calling from the other room. And do I get all hot and bothered?
- Ruth Edley: How do you like my dress? And it doesn't wrinkle easily.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Oh, brother.
- Ruth Edley: I had it made for a purpose. And you're the purpose. How about some food? Or, would you like a kiss first.
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: It's kinda warm in here, isn't it...
- Ruth Edley: Red, look at me. Don't you like me?
- Dr. Randall 'Red' Adams: Oh, Ruth, you're the most gorgeous creature that ever walked the face of the earth and I'm goofy about you.
