Dr. Foster, Ned's Dad and others in “Hurricane Neddy”

[Thirty years previously, young Ned and his beatnik parents are in Dr. Foster's office. Ned is wreaking havoc]

FDr. Foster

Well, I'm afraid young Ned is usually aggressive, but I can't seem to find a cause for it. [notices young Ned climbing the bookshelf] Hey! Hey! Get down from that bookshelf, please! Most of those books haven't been discredited yet! [to Ned's parents] Would you please tell your son to stop?

NSNed's Dad

We can't do it, man. That's discipline. That's like tellin' Gene Krupa not to go [starts banging on the desk, imitating playing drums] boom boom bam bam bam, boom boom bam bam bam, boom boom boom bam ba ba ba ba, da boo boo tss!

FDr. Foster

Mmm... Lack of discipline. I'm beginning to see the problem.

NSNed's Dad

We don't believe in rules, like, we gave them up when we started livin' like freaky beatniks.

FDr. Foster

You don't believe in rules, yet you want to control Ned's anger.

NSNed's Mom

Yeah. You gotta help us, Doc. We've tried nothin' and we're all out of ideas.

FDr. Foster

Hmm... There is an experimental therapy that might help Ned contain his anger.
