- Assess the patient's orientation.

- Very good, very good. Elizabeth?

Can you tell me your name?

No name, no history.

No one on the job knew him.

Do you know what day this is?

What?

Jones.

What'd he say?

I think he said, "Jones".

His name is Jones.

Jones....

- Hi.

- Hi.

I'm so glad to see you.

What did you do to your hair?

- You look great! You look wonderful!

- Thanks. Is this a bad time?

No, no. The painting's in the bedroom.

And, you have....

You have some mail.

- Libbie....

- Hi.

This is June.

It's so nice to meet you.

You know, it's been six months, Libbie.

I just thought it was time

you should meet her.

Take your crap out of the medicine cabinet,

while you're at it.

All right, okay.

You're a robot, you know that?

I can't hear you.

You're not a real person.

Only a mutant would pull a stunt like this.

Are you talking to yourself, Libbie?

Yeah, I'm talking to myself.

Who would have thought

that I'd be on the Johnny Carson Show?

Did you know, when I was born...

l didn't have a name

till I was 3 years old?

Why?

Because my father,

who's this really rigid old Chinese guy...

told me that when I was little,

there was an ancient Chinese tradition...

where the unborn child knows its name

before it's even born.

So the parents listen for it

and they try to get the name.

Obviously, in my case,

they couldn't hear it.

It's not like they weren't listening,

it was on purpose.

My mother wanted to name me Miranda

because she liked to dress like that.

With fruit and stuff.... I mean, hats!

I don't understand these hats.

But she couldn't say, "Miranda" because

it was "Melanda" and didn't sound right.

She wanted to avoid

the whole "L" and "R" thing.

So they called me Amanda. Amanda!

She's never understood me.

She always has this...

big smile on her face!

As if nothing's wrong,

as if everything is okay.

Always.

My work is very important.

The Pentagon is aware of this.

I have received communication

from CBS News, 6:30 p.m., every night.

"Mr. Wilson? Mr. Wilson? Where are you?

Where are you?"

I cannot return the communication

if my mind is clouded...

and if poison is being placed in my food!

"I'm late, I'm late

For a very important date"

Hi, I'm a doctor! I'm also a "lateaholic".

I'm late! I work late!

I get up late. I sleep late. I eat late.

It's too damn late to do anything about it.

- Mr. Jones?

- Where? Where? Get the net!

- Are you leaving us?

- Yes! Yes! I am leaving!

How are you feeling?

Did you do that to your husband

every morning? "How are you feeling?"

I bet that just popped him right up

out of bed, didn't it?

You're wondering how I knew

you were married?
