:04:02
Needless to say,
I was her guinea pig.
:04:05
She was bright.
:04:07
She was cheerful.
:04:09
She was voracious.
:04:11
And then there was
my office manager, Pat.
:04:14
Between the two of them,
I couldn't make a false move.
:04:17
Good morning.
:04:22
You may think dental elves come in
at night and do the paperwork...
:04:25
but believe me,
it is no picnic running an office...
:04:27
when the dentist isn't even here.
:04:29
You're the only dental elf here. We
both know I couldn't do it without you.
:04:34
And don't try
to butter me up either.
:04:37
Now, the MacArthur--
:04:39
The MacArthur twins
will be here in 15 minutes...
:04:42
so I suggest you put down
that coffee and get to work.
:04:45
Who's up?
:04:47
New patient, Susan Ivey, room three.
:04:49
Room three it is,
and I'll see you at lunch, darling Pat.
:04:55
Looks pretty perfect, doesn't it?
I thought it was too.
:04:58
Yet somehow I couldn't shake the feeling
that perfect was just an illusion.
:05:02
And then I turned the corner,
and there she was.
:05:05
I'm sorry I'm late.
I had a little--
:05:11
Little, Doctor?
:05:14
Had a little car trouble.
So, what can I do for you?
:05:17
It's my tooth.
I woke up last night screaming.
:05:21
I thought somebody
was hammering a nail into my jaw.
:05:24
All right, well,
let's have a look.
:05:32
- Anything the matter?
- No, it was the perfume.
:05:36
Sorry about that.
I was so frazzled...
:05:39
I spilled it all over myself.
:05:40
That's all right.
:05:42
I'll survive.
:05:44
All right,
let's take a look, shall we?
:05:54
You're not gonna hurt me,
are you, Doctor?
:05:56
- Of course not.
- Promise me.
