In this episode: Christian Troy (8), Sean (7), Kimber (1)

SCSean/Christian

Tell me what you don't like about yourself.

Check out this bombshell. We're getting ready this morning, and Julia tells me she wants her breasts done.

If you're thinking conflict of interest, I'd like to volunteer my services.

Still have a crush on the missus, do we?

Let the records show that I dated her first and passed off my sloppy seconds to you.

My god, when was the last time we went to bed and you didn't hate me?

You wanna talk about the real reason you breezed into town? And do me a favour, Mr. Perez, when you answer, drop the 'no hablo English' bullshit. It doesn't add to my confusion about your predicament, it only highlights your own. I'm a doctor; what you tell me during consultation is confidential.

SPSilvio Perez

I prefer to let my money talk. [puts a large briefcase on the table]

Nice alligator.

SPSilvio Perez

Twenty thousand dollars, according to your website. That's your fee.

Funny, isn't it? How certain things from Colombia have that pungent aroma that can stink up a room. Coffee, for instance, and of course there's the cartel money.

SPSilvio Perez

I'm not Colombian. My brother and I, we are Argentinean.

Mr. Perez, if you were Argentinean, I wouldn't have to recommend porcelain veneers. It's the only South American country with fluoride in the water. One last time, why are you running?

SPSilvio Perez

I was with the boss' girl.

Mr. Perez, you cad.

Can I buy you a drink?

I don't drink.

Can I buy you an appetizer?

I don't eat. I'm a model.

[Christian gives up and is ready to leave]

BBartender

Another one before you hit the road?

No, I have to operate tomorrow.

Are you a doctor?

[flashes smile] Plastic surgeon.

Let your shortcomings and imperfections fuel you. When you stop striving for perfection you might as well be dead.

[to Kimber, about Christian] Ms. Henry, I think you're confusing Dr. Troy's pleasant and very thorough bedside manner with real emotions.

We're in the vanity business, Sean. It's what we do. Appearance is everything to a kid. It's how you fit in. Snip, snip, he feels better about himself, and you, sir, can make that happen. How cool is fatherhood?

I'm not doing anything to my son's penis or my wife's breasts. I don't want my family infected by what we do here.

What is it that we're doing, Sean, other than make people feel good about themselves?

What we do is let people externalize the hatred they feel about themselves.
