Rambling Rose

:25:00
But the Gonorrhea caused irreparable
damage to her fallopian tubes.

:25:05
She can never have children.
:25:07
That's very sad. Poor Rose.
What a sad life she's had.

:25:11
Just so.
Now as to the malignancy...

:25:15
I think it unlikely.
I probably shouldn't have told her.

:25:19
You're right. She thinks
she has cancer and is going to die.

:25:22
She is an adult, Mr. Hillyer.
I merely gave her the facts.

:25:26
If she survives the surgery,
it's better than being pregnant.

:25:31
No. It's a blessing, really.
:25:33
And a stroke of luck
for an other reason.

:25:38
This operation
provides a therapeutic opportunity,

:25:43
important in the case of this girl,
:25:46
who suffers not only from a cyst,
but also from a neurotic condition.

:25:51
Neurotic condition?
:25:53
Go ahead, Doctor.
I'm following you.

:25:56
Evidently, she has been
quite promiscuous since childhood.

:26:01
She has absolutely
no control over her sexual impulses.

:26:07
Pray continue, Doctor.
:26:09
As a rule, I don't
believe in radical hysterectomy.

:26:13
The woman's hormonal system
can be profoundly disturbed.

:26:16
She may become depressed,
:26:18
and certain secondary sexual
characteristics can be affected.

:26:23
Her breasts
may shrink and become flabby.

:26:26
Facial hair may appear, along with
a certain coarsening of the features.

:26:31
And of course, her sexual drive
would be greatly diminished.

:26:36
For these reasons I am opposed
:26:39
to removing the womb and other ovary.
:26:43
As a rule. Do you follow me, sir?
:26:45
I'm ahead of you.
:26:50
I think we both know her.
:26:53
Yes, we do.
:26:55
I don't understand this bushy talk.
:26:57
Mrs. Hillyer, this girl is sick,
in more ways than one.
