Dr. Donald Westphall : What's he doing here?
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : Canine chemotherapy, remember? He discussed it with you.
Dr. Donald Westphall : Yes, I do, I told him no.
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : What?
Dr. Donald Westphall : Now, look, Elliot it's obvious that your father is very fond of that dog, but this hospital's under the gun we can't be treating animals while we're turning people away.
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : But he told me.
Dr. Donald Westphall : What really gets to me is you're allowing your father to use these facilities behind my back.
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : But sir.
Dr. Donald Westphall : I don't appreciate being ignored, Elliot. Now, you send your father and that dog on their way.
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : But, sir, if you let me explain, I.
Dr. Donald Westphall : Elliot.
Dr. Elliot Axelrod : Yes, I know sir, quit while I'm ahead.
Dr. Donald Westphall : You're too late.
