:12:00
My name is Solomon,
and Im sure youre right.
:12:02
Damn right,
Im right.
:12:04
A man devotes his
entire life to medicine,
:12:05
he surely deserves a little
something in return.
:12:08
I agree with you
100 percent,
:12:09
and Im sure Charley
feels the same way.
:12:11
Believe me, Dr. Willoughby.
:12:12
If youll just
let him stay on here,
:12:14
youll always
have a loyal friend.
:12:16
How loyal?
:12:18
How loyal do you want?
:12:19
Ill tell you.
:12:20
My term as Chief of Staff
expires pretty soon.
:12:23
September 15.
:12:24
Stop counting the days,
God damn it!
:12:26
No, no, no Dr. Willoughby.
I didnt mean to imply...
:12:28
You did too.
Now, Listen carefully
:12:32
I want another term.
:12:33
But you said yourself,
Charley was next in line.
:12:36
Provided Charleys
still on the staff.
:12:39
You want him not to run?
:12:41
What good would that do?
:12:42
Youll never get
the other guys to back you.
:12:45
I believe that difficulty
can be overcome.
:12:48
How?
:12:49
If Charley were
to nominate me.
:12:52
Young man,
Ive got a pacemaker,
:12:54
10 inches of plastic aorta,
:12:56
a corneal transplant,
a colostomy pouch,
:12:59
one and one-quarter kidneys,
a hearing aid,
:13:01
and no prostate at all.
:13:02
In other words, Dr. Silverman,
:13:04
if Im elected
for another five years,
:13:06
the odds are
that I will expire
:13:08
before my term will.
:13:10
Ill discuss it
with Charley.
:13:12
You do that.
:13:18
Oh, shit!
:13:26
God damn it!
Whose car is that?
:13:28
Mine.
:13:29
So you dont have to leave
a note on the windshield.
:13:31
Good. I hope you have insurance,
Solomon, because I dont.
:13:36
Now the son of a bitch
remembers my name.
:13:42
On a clear night,
:13:44
you can see
all the way to Catalina.
:13:46
When was the last clear night?
:13:49
I don't know.
Before I moved in, I guess.
:13:51
I cant tell you how thrilled
and surprised I was
:13:54
that you called.
:13:55
I cant tell you how thrilled
and surprised I was
:13:59
that you answered.
