:46:00
If you don't like me,
just say it.

:46:03
I don't like you!
:46:05
Why don't you like me?
You're a prick, and I like you.

:46:08
Because you make
my effort a joke!

:46:10
I want to be a doctor!
This isn't a game to me!

:46:14
This isn't playtime!
:46:16
This is serious business!
:46:18
I have it in me
to be a great doctor...

:46:22
but in order to do that I have to
sacrifice if I want to be better.

:46:26
"Better".
Better than me, hmm?

:46:27
I will save lives that
could have otherwise not been saved.

:46:30
Now, I could be like you and go around
laughing and have a good time, ha ha...

:46:34
but I prefer to learn,
because the more I learn...

:46:37
the more likely I will
have the right answer at the
crucial moment and save a life.

:46:40
And you say I'm a prick?
You say I'm a prick?

:46:42
You know, maybe I am...
:46:44
but you ask the average person, when
death comes knocking at their door...

:46:47
whether they want a prick on their side
or some kindergarten teacher...

:46:51
who's gonna kiss their ass!
:46:53
Because when that day comes
I want the prick...

:46:55
and so will you.
:47:08
You know, I forget
how young you are, Mitch...

:47:11
that you think you have to be a prick
to get things done...

:47:14
and that you actually think
that that's a new idea.

:47:31
You know what I oughta do?
Take it to the state medical board.

:47:34
There's gotta be some constitutional
right for visiting the sick.

:47:41
Why don't you
say anything?

:47:43
Sorry, Patch.
:47:45
I think Walcott
has a point.

:47:47
It's a hospital.
:47:49
People are suffering
and dying.

:47:52
We're all dying, Truman.
Our job is to increase health.

:47:57
You know what that means?
:47:59
That means improving the quality
of life, not just delaying death.
