Quotes
-
Topher Brink : [enters uncomfortably, very embarrassed] Doctor...
Dr. Claire Saunders : Topher?
Topher Brink : [waves childishly] Hello.
Dr. Claire Saunders : [uncertainly] Hello.
Topher Brink : So listen, here's the thing. I was looking...
[hastily corrects himself]
Topher Brink : glancing... I noticed... Victor!
Dr. Claire Saunders : You noticed Victor?
Topher Brink : Hmm-mm. In the shower. And he's... naked.
Dr. Claire Saunders : [nods] Victor's naked in the shower?
Topher Brink : Uh-huh. Right. Anyway, he seems to be having a kind of man reaction.
Dr. Claire Saunders : A what?
Topher Brink : You know, reaction that a man person might have in the, you know, naked part... Shower. Victor.
Dr. Claire Saunders : Victor had an erection?
Topher Brink : I prefer "man reaction."
Dr. Claire Saunders : Why?
Topher Brink : This is a problem. This can't happen. It shouldn't happen. When they're in the doll state, there's a limp... ness.
Dr. Claire Saunders : [checks Victor's file] Well, I warned you about something like this.
Topher Brink : When?
Dr. Claire Saunders : His last engagement was with Miss Lonely Hearts.
Topher Brink : So? That shouldn't matter. I mean, okay, it was a romantic engagement, but he was wiped.
Dr. Claire Saunders : This is the eighth time he's had that exact imprint. I've cautioned against exact imprints in the same dolls, haven't I?
Topher Brink : I don't know. You put it in one of those reports?
Dr. Claire Saunders : Of course.
Topher Brink : Okay! Well, nobody reads those.
Dr. Claire Saunders : [sits down, sighs] How many times has this happened?
Topher Brink : I don't know. I wasn't... looking for it.
Dr. Claire Saunders : Well, now you're gonna have to. Let's start with the last three months of shower tapes.
Topher Brink : We're actually gonna sit down and... look for...
[hesitates]
Dr. Claire Saunders : ...man reactions.

Topher Brink : Okay, well, nobody reads those.

Dr. Claire Saunders : There have been instances of this technology causing aneurysms and in one case, death. It's possible one good sneeze could bring on a seizure.
Topher Brink : Or even worse, a sneezeure!

Dr. Claire Saunders : Uh, uh, let's roll that back, please. I believe I spotted a time science at 3:21:04. Tell me what you think.
Topher Brink : Yeah, it ain't oak, but it's on its way to wood. Are we done?
Dr. Claire Saunders : Go to Wednesday, the 23rd, please.
Topher Brink : [tape whirls as it rewinds] You know, I could burn these and you could just take 'em home.
Dr. Claire Saunders : Go back. There. Mm-hmm. Wait. Freeze that.
Topher Brink : [dismayed] I will not!
Dr. Claire Saunders : Of course. If it'd been a snake...
[shakes her head]
Dr. Claire Saunders : Please pretend I didn't say that. Go back to 17:57:09. Can you zoom in...
[before Topher can protest:]
Dr. Claire Saunders : to his face?
