You know there's something
I'd like to know about you.
Somehow I have the feeling that
you must do something important.
Pretty well too.
Well it's no use.
I might as well confess.
Brace yourself, Sergeant.
I'm a doctor.
- A doctor?
- Please do not say it that way,
I'm trying to cure myself
from feeling like a freak.
You see most people feel that female
doctors should be seen only in cages.
Well, I don't.
Only it's a little hard to think of anyone
as attractive as you're being a doctor.
I'm afraid it'll be years before I get
over the handicap of what I look like.
- That's a handicap that a lot of women
would give years for. - Thank you.
But I'd even thought of wearing
a false beard during office hours.
You see I'm taking over a practice in
a small town, called Monteflores.
- Monteflores?
- Yes. Have you heard of it?
That's where I am going.
I wonder if you happen to know...
Take it easy, folks!
Everything's under control.
As the table staff in the dining car,
tell them to bring hot water
and all the clean towels they've got.
Dining Car
- Adhesive tape.
- Right here, doctor.
Can you help her out?
All right now, just take it easy.
Take it easy.
Towel.
There is an ambulance coming,
doctor. Why don't you
- leave this case to them?
The ambulance is here.
You can knock off now.
- What?
- You can rest now.
- You can take over now, doctor.
- Come on, Leslie.
- You get in. I'll get our luggage
to the driver. - Right.
Sure. It's easy to give a fello orders.
The chief said:
"Take the doc andhis friend to the nearest hotel".
"Get them room, bed, tickets on the first
train tomorrow and a couple of drinks."
I said, "Okay, I can promise the drinks,
but the rooms?"
Don't he know there's a war
going on?
- Hey, Sarge.
- Yeah?
Ain't she kind of young
to be a doctor?
Here's the best doctor
on this side of the Solomons.
Oh, that's good to hear
even if it isn't true.
I'm not kidding.
I've seen doctors working in conditions
you wouldn't believe.
I wanna tell you that tonight
you were right in their class.
Praise like that Sergeant
is praise indeed.
Johnny, what's the matter?
I'll be all right.
Let's not change the subject.
I was trying to tell you
You are kind Johnny,
but I'm very tired.
I've had what you might call
a hectic day.
Yeah, I guess a little 'sack duty'
wouldn't hurt anybody.
- 'Sack duty'? - It's a marine word
for hitting the hay.
- Good night, doctor.
- Good night.
Johnny...
These aren't office hours.
You don't have to call me, doctor.
Good night, Leslie.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- Want to order, ma'am?
