:12:01
Well, I suppose I should be polite.
:12:03
- I must be going.
- Your train.
:12:05
Yes, I know.
:12:08
- So long, Fred, old boy. You'll be back.
- Don't hold your breath.
:12:13
- Good luck, old man.
- Thanks.
:12:19
- Fred, can't you put this thing off?
- Sorry, doctor, I've closed my office.
:12:24
- Have you read the case history?
- Oh, you mean this gossip sheet?
:12:27
- A wire manufacturer's daughter?
- Oh, please, never mind that.
:12:30
This girl's desperately ill.
:12:32
I've been watching her like a hawk,
and she's been losing ground each day.
:12:37
Well, if two minutes
will do you any good, I'll talk.
:12:40
- What's this about headaches?
- She's been having them persistently.
:12:44
- Even before the accident, I suspect.
- Before?
:12:48
She calls them hangovers.
:12:52
Three weeks? And you wait until now?
:12:54
You don't know that girl.
She's a very stubborn patient.
:12:58
Only yesterday she went to a revival
of Cyrano in the afternoon...
:13:01
...and played bridge half the night.
She won't cooperate.
:13:04
- She won't even tell me anything.
- Won't talk, huh?
:13:07
Fred.
:13:08
We're old friends, and I'm desperate.
:13:11
I brought this little girl into the world.
Took care of her father until he died.
:13:15
If she's such a great horsewoman,
why was she thrown?
:13:18
That's it.
It was a queer sort of accident.
:13:21
She crashed into
the right wing of a jump...
:13:23
...almost as if she'd held her horse
deliberately at it.
:13:26
I was there. I saw it.
:13:29
- You're sure it was the right side?
- Yes. Why?
:13:33
In that case, your best bet
is to get in touch with Findlay.
:13:36
- Findlay's in Europe.
- All right. Then get Park.
:13:39
I don't want Park
or any of the rest of them.
:13:42
Hang it all, they're no better than I am.
I want you.
:13:45
lf I start making exceptions,
I'll be stuck here another nine years.
:13:49
Fred, you're always talking about
the obligation of doctors to humanity.
:13:53
- Well, Fred, there is humanity.
- Sorry, doctor.
:13:58
It can't be done.
