- Oh, don't flatter yourself, Doctor. There's nothing personal about this.

- I think you've been working too hard, Kelly. You're getting neurotic.

- Now don't start analyzing me. Save your psychiatry for your next job!

- I'm not using psychiatry, Miss Kelly. And let me give you a little friendly advice: That chip on your shoulder stems from a persecution complex that undoubtedly goes back to childhood.

- Thanks so much for the case history, Doctor.

- Now could you tell me what an overinflated ego stems from?

- Now, listen here!

- Hiya, Kelly.

- Hiya, Doc. Hey, I'm glad I caught you before you left.

- I'm sorry you got bounced, and I wanna tell you we're all gonna miss you.

- Thanks, Wilson.
