The Men Page #4

- How's Tarzan today?

- Oh, fine, Doctor.

I saw your mother

at the auxiliary meeting.

I didn't see Dolores, though.

Ah, that's a cute kid.

Who asked for your opinion?

You big wolf.

Did you see the

man from the bank?

Those guys won't even talk to me

until I get discharged.

Well, you'll have your house.

Ricky tells me you're working

a little too hard in the gym.

- Oh, I don't get tired, Doc.

- Take it easy.

You waited this long.

You can wait a little longer.

Yeah, I guess you're right.

Mr. Howard's been discharged.

Oh, yes. That brings us

to Mr. Fox In The Bush.

Any complaints today,

Mr. Butler?

Just a slight case of paralysis

in both legs.

Nothing serious, you understand.

Everybody's a comedian.

- Let's do a blood chemistry on him.

- What for?

It's my hobby.

Don't you want to be rehabilitated?

No, I don't want to be rehabilitated,

readjusted, reconditioned or anything.

If you don't mind, I don't want

to take my proper place in society.

Does that make my position clear?

Nevertheless, we'll do

a blood chemistry on him.

Thank you, Dr. Kildare.

Hey, Doc, come here

a minute, will you?

It's important.

Look through the little hole

and tell me what you see.

Some doll, eh?

You moron!

You're no good!

You're making more money now

than you ever made in your life,

and all you wanna do

is lie on your back,

smoke cigars and

look at naked women!

You're impossible!

Wonderful guy.

You haven't been much help,

but you're in pretty good shape.

Much better

than you deserve to be.

Thanks.

Your bedsores have

practically healed,

and your kidney condition

will improve if you exercise.

You're a well man.

When do I leave?

You could to it in a year,

maybe only six months.

It'll depend on you.

You mean in six months

I could work into a wheelchair.

That's what you mean, isn't it?

Well, that'd be wonderful.

You've been a paraplegic

for more than a year now.

Don't you think it's time

you accepted it?

I accept it. I'm just

a bad patient, that's all.

I'm sorry I'm spoilin'

your record.

What record?

You mean all this

is personal interest?

Well, Doctor, I'm really touched.

I'll get well real fast now.

What is it you want,

Mr. Wilczek?

You want to die?

It'd save the taxpayers

a lot of money.

That's very nice of you.

Oh, uh, I met someone

who knows you the other day.

A girl. She says her name

is Ellen something or other.

She says you're engaged.

Look, you keep her out of here.

You keep her away from me.

Why? Don't you

like her anymore?

Are you through with me?

All through.

You keep her out of here!

You keep her away from me!

I don't want to see her!

You hear me?

I hear you.

I think it's time we began to get
