Becker · Season 1

Dr. John Becker, Phil Morrison and others in “PC World”

Tetzloff, you are a lying, bottom feeding, low-life publicity whore!

Dr. Becker, please. Come in. Sit down. [ushers Becker into a chair]

What? No, I don't want to talk on the radio -

This'll be fine, seriously. Sit down. [into the radio mike] This is great. We have John Becker here, the racist doctor Mr. Tetzloff wrote about. [to Becker] Go ahead. You're on the air. Talk. Talk into the mike.

All right. This guy took a private conversation and he turned it into something that it wasn't.

Well, then maybe you could tell me what it was. You said to an Asian man, "You people can't drive."

Yes, yes. You people, as in, you lousy drivers. I didn't care where he came from. All I cared about was where he was going, which was into the side of my car! I never said he was a bad driver because he was Asian.

So you do believe Asian Americans are bad drivers?

I never said that they are bad drivers!

"They?"

Oh, come on! This is stupid!

Isn't "they" just a racist code word? Another way of saying "those people?"

"They" is not a code word. "They" is a pronoun. We can't use pronouns anymore?

And by "we," you mean white Americans just like you?

Oh, come on. White Americans. Do you believe this?

I love this! This is like a real show!
