:53:02
"A large one."
:53:04
"Going on the hard stuff, eh?
Been one of those days, has it?"
:53:10
"It's always one of those days for me.
:53:12
"Never get a minute to myself, I don't.
:53:16
"The fact is, my dear,
I think I'm getting a bit of a cold."
:53:21
"Whiskey, is it, then?"
:53:22
"Have a drop of honey in it,
that's what I always do.
:53:25
"Can't beat it for stopping a cold.
:53:27
"Take some more when you get home
with a drop of hot water and some sugar...
:53:30
"and you'll be as right as rain
in the morning."
:53:33
"I don't know about that.
:53:36
"It could be the flu.
Last time I had a bout of the flu...
:53:38
"I was off for a fortnight."
:53:46
Am I to understand
I'm being written out of this episode?
:53:55
Well?
:53:58
Really, George...
:53:59
just because you appear
to have a nasty cold coming on...
:54:02
I don't think you should start jumping
to conclusions.
:54:04
Why not?
:54:05
Ginger's jumped to the conclusion
that I'm to be struck down by anything...
:54:09
from the common cold
to the bubonic plague.
:54:13
That is a slight exaggeration, you know.
:54:15
After all, he's merely offering
a layman's opinion.
:54:17
Nonsense!
Everybody in Applehurst knows...
:54:20
that Ginger
is one of nature's own diagnosticians.
:54:22
He can often put his finger on the trouble...
:54:24
when old Dr. Williams is still groping
in the dark, can't he?
:54:28
Yes, but at this point he's merely
suggesting you wrap up well and go to bed.
:54:33
And evidently I'm to remain between
the sheets for the next two installments.
:54:39
Is that right, Jack?
:54:41
The rest is taken up with Rosie's reaction
when she finds out the tests are positive.
:54:45
Initially, she's contemplating suicide.
Then, at the last minute...
:54:48
Ginger saves her.
:54:51
If there was anything wrong with Rosie,
I'd be the first person she consulted.
:54:55
Yes, she's right.
:54:57
Yes, normally she would...
:54:59
but that's the whole point, you see.
You've got flu.
