“Tell Me Lies” · Season 1

In this episode: Dr. John Becker (4), Jake Malinak (3), Mr. Schmalen (3), Linda (1)

Jake, let me give you a little tip: whatever you do, never, ever, go to a hospital. You got a problem, throw yourself in front of a train. It's quicker, it's cheaper and it's a hell of a lot less paperwork. Patient of mine went to this morning for surgery. By the time I get there, he's gone.

Oh, John. I'm sorry.

No, he's not dead! He's gone! They lost him! They physically lost the entire person! Oh, yeah, they keep track of their $25 aspirin there, $40 Q-tips, but apparently poor, unconscious Mr. Barelli was just a little too slippery for them! But at least it was all worthwhile. When I got Mr. Barelli up to his room, he found the perfect way to thank me. Threw up all over my shoes.

You know, I can't help but notice you're acting a little- what's that word you used, Jake? Oh, yeah. Bitchy.

I never said that. I agree, but I never said that.

(after he arranged the chess pieces on the board)

Hey sweetheart, tell the doctor I'm ready and I'm white.

Excuse me sir, but the doctor does not discriminate, he takes patients in the order they come in.

(to Linda as he's leaving Dr. Becker's office)

Honey, a little tip, next time I come in, it wouldn't kill you to offer me a little coffee, maybe a Danish. And by the way, they invented brassiere for a reason!
