Dr. Elliot Fibel: They know what? Who?

Nurse Mary Verbeck: The Salingers. They know I worship your body like a French cathedral.

Dr. Elliot Fibel: I don't care who knows, Mary. You're my woman and I'm your man!

Dr. Elliot Fibel: [they kiss passionately] Never the less, if they can keep a secret, ha ha, so can I.

[they kiss again]

Nurse Mary Verbeck: [telling a spaced out Micki about Rob's infidelity] I have some bad news, Mrs. Salinger. Dr. Fibel and I... how shall I put this. Dr. Fibel and I...

Nurse Mary Verbeck: You do?

Micki Salinger: Yes.

Nurse Mary Verbeck: And you don't mind?

Micki Salinger: Why should I mind?

Nurse Mary Verbeck: Frankly, I'm shocked.

Micki Salinger: What am I supposed to do cancel surgery because my doctor's having an affair with his nurse?

Nurse Mary Verbeck: What?

Micki Salinger: [laughing hysterically] You're having an affair with Dr. Fibel.

Nurse Mary Verbeck: What on earth are you talking about? I'm not that kind of woman and neither is Dr. Fibel.
