Ketchup or Tabasco? On your scrambled eggs. Do you want something some people consider a vegetable or do you want to go with something a little more daring? You thought I left, didn't you?
No, I didn't.
Yes, you did.
No, really, I didn't. Okay, I did. But you kind of did leave technically.
Well that doesn't count. If you had gotten up a little earlier you would have seen me here sound asleep.
Some habits die hard.
You sleeping in.
Like you not being here in the morning.
That's an old habit!
I've got to talk to you about something
Oh, Doug. Not another serious conversation.
You used to say we didn't communicate, so --
I know, but now you're communicating a little bit too much.
I know, but this is important. Can I have a drawer?
[laughs] What?

I completely understand how you feel. You know, I'd like to take -
[interrupting] Everywhere you look, there's sheep, sheep, sheep!
You're in early.
Yeah, I wanted to be in before my med student.
Ah, your very own scut puppy.
Somebody to pick up my labs. Do a patient history. The occasional obligatory rectal exam...
Someone to abuse.
No, no, no, this is about teaching. This is completely about teaching.
The way Benton taught you?
Or even better.
