Rollins and Dr. Adler in “Unfinished Business”

You were brilliant. What happened to your mind?

ADr. Adler

[agitated] My mind has evolved! That's why people are so threatened by me! [points to the mirror] Who's out there? The AMA? American Psychiatric? How many forces conspire against me? Big Pharma? You said yourself, they're only interested in drugs to numb the soul! Who is there?

No one is out there but my captain.

ADr. Adler

[completely delusional] O Captain my Captain, our fearful trip is done/The ship has weathered every wrack/The prize we sought is won...

Dr. Adler, come back, be here with me...

ADr. Adler

No, no, no, that is something I will not do! I will not sit there with you eating green eggs and ham, I will not give false confession, I will not be complicit in our society's bloodlust for scapegoats! [starts climbing up the wall]

No, you can't go out that way...

ADr. Adler

Going, going, gone!
