Nurse Daniels and Dr. Ehrlich in “Murder, She Rote”

Nurse Daniels

Take my word, Ehrlich, the scar's right where you left it.

Dr. Ehrlich

Hey babe, please. I'm the medico here, okay? [Trying to look at Shirley's scar] So let's undo mister bow, pull the gown back, and take a peak.

Nurse Daniels

Your hands are cold.

Dr. Ehrlich

Yes, but my smile is warm.

Nurse Daniels

[Grabs Ehrlich's hand and shoves it] And the traverse stops here.

Dr. Ehrlich

Easy. I know it's not the cleanest appendectomy of the New Year, but consider the incredible pressure I was under. You, a demented killer, we almost dated once. I have great difficulty excising a vestigial organ, knowing that right around the bend, it's a cervical us. Trust me, Citizen Kane's dying thought wasn't a fond remembrance of a childhood sled, okay?

Nurse Daniels

I don't mind the scar. Besides, I'm not planning on logging any bikini time for a while.

Dr. Ehrlich

Surely they won't send you to prison. Will they, Shirley?

Nurse Daniels

Eventually. Until then, I got to find a job.

Dr. Ehrlich

Okay, embroider pillows. It's a growing cottage industry, you're home alone, no one gets hurt.

Nurse Daniels

My lawyer scheduled a meeting with Auschlander, trying to get me reinstated in emergency.

Dr. Ehrlich

If you need a character reference, let me know. Despite what anybody may have told you, I've always been in your corner.

Nurse Daniels

I know your heart's in the right place. So was Peter White's.

Dr. Ehrlich

I got to go.

Nurse Daniels

Cause if it wasn't, I'd have had to pull a trigger a third time, and blast a hole through his skull.

Dr. Ehrlich

[Coughing] I got to go. I'll talk to you.
