Mary Frances Bodine : I'm not even allowed to love who I want anymore, am I? That is how little control I have.
Dr. David Matthews : And who is it that you want to love?
Mary Frances Bodine : I don't know. Don... You.
Dr. David Matthews : And why me? do you think.
Mary Frances Bodine : Aside from the fact that you're extremely handsome, you have a sensational bedside manner, and you saved my life?
Dr. David Matthews : Nope. Think like a Doctor, you've been around them enough.
Mary Frances Bodine : Because I've grown dependent on you.
[He nods]
Mary Frances Bodine : Well, what if I don't want to grow independent?
Dr. David Matthews : But you must.
Mary Frances Bodine : Why must I?
Dr. David Matthews : Because being totally dependent on another person is not living. And it's not love.
Mary Frances Bodine : Then help me grow independent. Please!
Dr. David Matthews : All right. For months, Don was terrified that he would not be able to love you in another body. Now, Gordon and I told him to give you a chance. And he did. He stood by you and he pulled you through. Now it's your turn.
Mary Frances Bodine : I wanna give him that chance, I do.
Dr. David Matthews : Well?
Mary Frances Bodine : Can I ask you one thing?
Dr. David Matthews : Sure.
Mary Frances Bodine : Why do you love me?
