- Dr. Susan Mauri: Fiscus!
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: Hello Dr. Mauri.
- Dr. Susan Mauri: Where were you this morning?
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: I don't know. Where was I supposed to be?
- Dr. Susan Mauri: Over at BU, Fiscus. The lecture?
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: That's not until Friday.
- Dr. Susan Mauri: Didn't you get my message?
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: No.
- Dr. Susan Mauri: I told your roommate last night that we were on for this morning.
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: Well, I didn't... ..
- Dr. Susan Mauri: There were forty people there this morning, Fiscus. You made me look like a fool.
- Dr. Wayne Fiscus: It wasn't intentional. It was a mistake.
- Dr. Susan Mauri: It's always a mistake with you, isn't it? There are a lot of residents around here that could have done this lecture. But you seemed most qualified. You made me look like a fool, Fiscus, and I'm not gonna forget this.
- Dr. Mark Craig: Well?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: I'd like to talk to you about Dr. Andrews.
- Dr. Mark Craig: Okay.
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: I've been assisting him for the past few weeks.
- Dr. Mark Craig: I'm aware of that.
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: [sighs] And well... .
- Dr. Mark Craig: What?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: I think he's inserting pacemakers in people who don't need them.
- Dr. Mark Craig: Why the hell would you think a thing like that?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: Because the conditions of half the patients didn't warrant it. In the last few weeks Dr. Andrew has inserted 28 pacemakers, and I've looked at the case histories of 14 of those patients. Just this morning we operated on an Alfred Standar, 52 years old, with no history of heart disease prior to a minor infarction. I saw his E.K.G tracing Dr. Craig. He did not need that pacemaker.
- Dr. Mark Craig: You didn't think it was necessary.
- Dr. Mark Craig: [Pulls Armstrong Aside] How long have you been a heart surgeon, Armstrong?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: Dr. Craig I'm not trying to... ..
- Dr. Mark Craig: [Interrupts] How long?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: I'm not a heart surgeon.
- Dr. Mark Craig: What are you?
- Dr. Wendy Armstrong: I'm a resident. A first-year resident.
- Dr. Mark Craig: I would think long and hard young lady before I started tossing around some serious accusations. Now, get out of here
- [walks away]
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: You seem like an intelligent, decent human being. What makes you do porno movies?
- Harold Beaumont: We prefer to call them "erotic films," but to answer your question, I was down to my last dollar and sitting in a restaurant eating when a man approached me and asked me if I'd like to be in a movie. He needed someone with an English accent. Adds a touch of class, you know. It's the truth. They quickly discovered that I had a... how shall I say it? Talent.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: There are a lot of people broke out there, but they don't degrade themselves.
- Harold Beaumont: Most of my movies are quite funny really. I mean, Victorian romances, historical melodramas, sweeping adventures - that sort of thing.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: With nudity and sexual intercourse.
- Harold Beaumont: Yes.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: How do you do it? Emotionally, I mean.
- Harold Beaumont: Sex has never been particularly important to me. I've always found a great book far more demanding and satisfying, emotionally. I suppose my difficulty, or lack of it, reflects a deep-rooted psychological problem, but I've always been this way.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: I think what you do is immoral.
- Harold Beaumont: Yes, I know you do. You ever seen one of my pictures?
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: No.
- Harold Beaumont: They're really very funny, you know. Personally, I can't understand why people find them titillating. I suppose that reflects a lacking on their part, wouldn't you say? I'm really very highly respected in the Philippines, North Africa and the Middle East. Albuquerque too.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: Albuquerque, New Mexico?
- Harold Beaumont: Hmm. I was voted, uh, Star of the Year at the Albuquerque Erotic Film Festival.
- Dr. Annie Cavanero: I didn't know they had one.
- Harold Beaumont: Neither did I.
