What's her name ?

I was just wondering

the patient's name.

Marjorie.

Hi, Marjorie.

Hi.

Yes, um, thank you.

Let's move on.

- What are you doing ?

- Continuing the experiment. Come on.

We can start a lemonade stand

together after we get kicked out

of medical school.

Bye, Marjorie.

- [ Crashing Sounds ]

- I cannot stand it in there, Joletta.

He doesn't have

to talk to me like that.

I know, hon, but really,

how good a mood would you be in ?

- May I help you ?

- Oh, um--

So I'll meet you

at the club.

Oh, great.

Maybe we'll play the back nine, hmm ?

Hello. I'm Patch.

I'm studying medicine here.

Well, not here, but--

Y-You know.

Lookit here, Judy.

Another future boss.

Oh, I wouldn't

look at it like that.

I'm exaggeratin',

but in another five years

you'll be so full of yourself...

you'll have to hang a cup out your ass

Might as well enjoy it.

- Who's in that room ?

- Don't even think about it.

He'll bite your head off.

Mr. Davis.

Pancreatic cancer.

How long does he have ?

Longer than you,

if you go in that room.

So be sure

you steer clear.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you.

Hey !

What year are you ?

I have a cold. Just a bit of a cold.

Is my nose red ?

Oh, it is. It's red.

Ohh ! Oh.

What's that ?

You don't know ?

I don't either.

Let's find out.

Try on you.

Give it to me.

[ Whooshing Noise ]

[ Whooshing Noise ]

- Patch.

Hunter, Dr. Prack was
