Quotes
-
Doctor Roberts : [talking to Dawn and Alex at the LA Free Clinic, thinking both have VD] 400 of you kids every week. 3 part-time doctors. It's impossible. Okay, which one of you guys goes first?
[Alexander unbuckles his pants to get a shot in the ass]
Doctor Roberts : 8 years of study. I have not one case of mastoids or thrombosis. All I get are 12 year-old pregnants and exotic forms of VD.
[shoots Alex in the ass with needle, then turns to Dawn]
Doctor Roberts : And now for the culprit. Syphilis or Gonorrhea?
[Dawn looks shocked]
Alexander : She needs penicillin.
Doctor Roberts : What she needs is a slap in the fanny. Listen. I don't want you two going near each other until you are cured, you understand?
Alexander : [impatiently] Are you gonna' give her the shot or not?
Dawn Wetherby : I have the flu! Just the flu!
Doctor Roberts : [laughs] I don't know if I remember a cure for that.
Alexander : Penicillin?
