Quotes
-
Beth : You know more about your patients than you do about your own family.

Joseph : What's going on? Whose dog is this?
Grace : Mom's. She saved his life.
Beth : He's not mine. I'm just gonna find him a home.
Joseph : Why is he here?
Beth : I just couldn't let them take him to the pound. So what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna call a few rescue societies tomorrow and somebody's gonna want him.
Joseph : Yeah, but not us, right? We're not getting a dog, right?
Grace : I think you should keep him. I'll help.
Joseph : You're at school. She's not gonna come back every morning and walk the dog and neither am I.
Beth : I wouldn't mind doing that.
Joseph : Beth, I don't want a dog.
Beth : I told you, I'm gonna find him a home.
Joseph : Yeah, I know you.
Beth : And what's that supposed to mean?
Grace : That was Dr. Bhoola.
Joseph : Who?
Grace : The veterinarian. He's gonna stop by.
Beth : What is he... He's coming here now?
Grace : Yeah, he has some medicine or something. I'm gonna use your shower 'cause it's filthy in here.
Joseph : The veterinarian makes house calls?
Beth : He's very attractive.

Beth : I'm not talking about Doctors, I'm talking about you.
Joseph : Have I ever put my work before you or the girls?
[pause]
Joseph : Ok, sometimes. When I'm doing surgery on someone's spine to relieve them of a life of pain, I have put my work first! The girls always understood and they never complained.
Beth : Were we living in the same house?
-
Joseph : This is - this is a difficult time for you; for both of us. And especially for a woman, there are physical changes that affect everything.
Beth : Oh, tell me about being a woman.
Joseph : I think that the anger you're feeling is not about me. It's hormonal.
Beth : No. It's not menopause. It actually is about you.

Beth : Ellie called. They got your mother on her plane. And you know what Ethan asked about you? You know what he said? He's so cute. He said 'Where's pee pee?'
[Beth and Joseph laugh]
Beth : Honey, what are we gonna do about the Partridge and the Plough?
Joseph : What are we gonna do about Russell? Has Freeway been in here?
Beth : Huh? I thought he was with you.
Joseph : He was but he took off on me.
Beth : What? Wait a minute. Where's the dog?
Joseph : I told you, he took off.
Beth : When was this?
Joseph : 'Bout 20 minutes ago. He chased a deer and wouldn't come back.
Beth : Did you use the whistle?
Joseph : I whistled. I didn't have the whistle per say.
Beth : You were on the phone, right? Hmm?
Joseph : It was an emergency. He's probably right outside.

Beth : [to Joseph angry about losing Freeway] You lost the dog while you were talking on the phone!
