Quotes 

• Robert Goren : It's a beautiful day today.

  Paula Gyson : Yes, finally we get a spring.

  Robert Goren : You don't suppose we could take this session outside, do you? I guess you've heard that one before.

  Paula Gyson : We have more privacy in here. Or is that why you wanna be outside?

  Robert Goren : Do you always do that? You think that everything is about something else? Or us?

• Robert Goren : You asked me if I... if I'm lonely. You asked if I could ever have feelings for someone...

  Paula Gyson : Romantic feelings.

  Robert Goren : ...for someone I respect. But you didn't answer my question. Is it too late?

  Paula Gyson : Um, you're worried that you've missed the boat? I think as we start...

  Robert Goren : Can you stop? Can you just... You know, we don't have a lot of sessions left. You know, and I'm a big boy. You know, I'm a grown man. And what is it that you said? My emotional drawbridge, it's up. Okay, I can take it. Just tell me if you think I can have what other people have. You know, a home, a relationship.

  Paula Gyson : If you wanna work towards those goals, then, yeah, we can do that.

  Robert Goren : Work towards those goals. What is that? I mean, what does that mean? No? I mean, is that couched-in shrink speak?

  Paula Gyson : I'm not the one saying no or it's too late. You are. Where's this coming from?

  Robert Goren : I mean, I look in the mirror every day, and I see what you see. You know, it's not working, this. You know, I ask you for your professional judgment, and then you turn it back on me. I mean, come on, you're smart. You're someone that I respect.

  Paula Gyson : And you want to know if I see you as someone capable of being in a relationship.

  Robert Goren : That's what... You think that I'm hitting on you, is that you...

  Paula Gyson : No!

  Robert Goren : Come on!

  Paula Gyson : That's not what I was saying.

  Robert Goren : [angry]  No? Look, I know what you do, doctor. You seem open, empathic, and you listen. You know, you're beautiful. So you get your patients to trust you, and then you pull back. You toy with them, and that's your game, isn't it?

  Paula Gyson : Detective...

  Robert Goren : [angry]  Isn't it? Isn't it? Look, this is not working for me!

  Paula Gyson : I know that I have inadvertently...

  Robert Goren : [angry]  You know, you should call my captain, or, you know, ONE P.P., or whoever that you report back to, and you should tell them that I am not a good candidate for therapy!

  Paula Gyson : I need you to help me understand what I did wrong.

  Robert Goren : If they want to take my badge away again...

  Paula Gyson : Right when you feel you need to run...

  Robert Goren : [shutting the door]  This isn't working. It's not helping.
