Dr. Jackson. Dr. Jackson.
You are wanted urgently in emergency ward number 3.
Whose patient?
Mine, sir.
You're late.
Patient went into shock in the OR.
So miraculous Dr. Jacobs has saved yet another life.
Well, the surgeon needed help.
Spare me the heroic details.
Let's get on with this.
Yes, sir.
Mrs. Thatcher's BUN level was elevated, so we...
Did you repeat the blood test?
No.
Why not?
We hydrated her and she improved.
How do you know she improved
if you didn't repeat the blood test?
Dr. Westlake, the flow chart here shows...
I can't tell anything from this.
What I was going to say was...
In my 30 years of practicing medicine,
I have never seen such a sorry excuse for a resident team.
Jacobs doesn't know how to do a proper diagnosis.
Shaw's here only because of his father.
Jackson has a lame excuse for everything.
And Campion can't tell a scalpel
from a toothbrush.
I'm wasting my time.
Sir, I'll explain if you give me a chance.
Evaluations
come out in the morning, gentlemen.
Have a nice day.
You too sir.
You don't really think he'll give us bad evaluations, do you?
I think he's capable of genocide,
given the right equipment.
He can't give all four of us bad evaluations.
That wouldn't make him look very good.
Well, you don't seem too worried.
I'm not.
Well, that's because you're demonstrably superior.
Don't bait me, Jacobs.
Save your personality for the student nurses.
Listen, Jackson, don't be so smug.
I happen to know Westlake has given bad evaluations
to a resident team before.
And it's taken each one of them years
before they got out from under that cloud.
Dr. Radburn.
May I join you?
Have a seat.
Well, man, this is a particularly grim group.
Dr. Westlake at it again?
How'd you know?
I've seen these symptoms before.
He's doing our evaluations tonight.
I gotta go to work.
Me too.
Say, could you give me a ride home in about an hour?
I may hang around a while. Can you wait?
Mm. Nah, that's okay.
I'll get one with Sean.
So, uh, how bad is it?
I think I pushed my luck
a little too far with Westlake this time.
Why don't you talk to him?
Couldn't hurt.
Yeah, maybe I'll talk to him.
Later.
Dr. Westlake, I know you're...
Oh, man.
I can't believe it.
When did it happen?
Sometime during the night.
The janitor found his body.
Looks like we got lucky after all.
What's going on?
Westlake's been murdered.
Make way, folks. Coming through.
God.
Man.
I think I need some air.
X-ray technician on call, please call the emergency room.
X-ray technician, call the emergency room.
How are you this morning, Mrs. Wilson?
Better than you.
Oh?
I'm still in bed,
and you're up with the chickens.
Resting comfortably?
You're not Dr. Thomas.
No. No, I'm not.
I'm sorry.
I can't see a thing without my glasses.
And I can't find them anywhere.
Dr. Hines, outside call.
Here you go.
Thank you.
I haven't seen you before.
I... I'm on a new rotation.
You stop by any time, young man.
Well, thank you.
I'll remember that. Thank you.
Bye.
Dr. Granville, please call the operator.
Dr. Granville.
Bruce Jacobs?
Yeah?
I'm Lieutenant Brooks, Atlanta P.D.
I'd like to ask you a few questions.
Listen, I'm already late for my morning rounds, lieutenant.
Well, this'll only take a minute.
Uh, Dr. Jacobs, uh,
where were you last night at 11 p.m.?
Last night I guess I was home watching TV.
Alone?
Yes. Why?
What time did you leave the hospital?
Around 10:00. Listen, I... I really have to go.
You know, a security guard saw you leaving
through a rear entrance last night at 11:30.
Maybe I was wrong about the time.
When was the last time you saw Dr. Westlake?
About 9 a.m. For morning rounds.
You sure you didn't see him after that?
Of course I'm sure.
We have an eyewitness who can place you
in Westlake's office at 11:00 last night.
I'm gonna need you to come with me, Dr. Jacobs.
Bruce Jacobs?
The one and only.
Benjamin Matlock.
Norman Radburn's an old friend of the family.
He says you need a good lawyer.
I need a great lawyer.
Well, I'm pretty good.
The police have this nurse,
Helena Richards, and she says she saw you
going into Dr. Westlake's office
at the time of the murder.
Is that true?
I went to his office to talk to him.
He was dead when I got there.
The story is that you were afraid
of what he might do to your future.
Well, that's why I went to talk to him.
I was hoping we could work things out.
The police found your lab coat in your apartment
with the victim's blood on it.
It got stained when I was checking his pulse.
Why did you lie to the police?
Because I was scared.
I put in eight years studying to be a doctor, Mr. Matlock.
I ran, I panicked, and then I lied.
I don't have an excuse.
Okay.
You're a resident at the hospital, right?
Yeah, that's right, yeah.
That's like a doctor.
Yeah. More or less, yeah.
I've got this pain right here.
It comes and goes.
Well, have you been for a physical lately?
Oh, no, no. Not for a little thing like that.
It's not so bad in the morning.
Sometimes after supper it hurts awful.
Could be gastroenteritis.
Gastritis.
That serious?
Well, it's hard to tell.
Look, Mr. Matlock, level with me.
Have I got a chance here?
In the... In the old days,
when a person was really sick,
doctors used to make house calls.
They'd come out and thump you on the chest
and put things in your mouth and ask you to say, "ah."
Sometimes they'd know what was wrong
and sometimes they wouldn't.
And when they didn't,
they didn't say anything,
because they didn't want you to know they didn't know.
Right. So you know what they said?
"Take two aspirin and call me in the morning."
Yeah, so I'll see you in the morning.
Thanks. Thanks, Mr. Matlock.
Ben, I've known Bruce Jacobs since he's 5 years old.
Mm.
I honestly don't think he could do something like that.
Hm.
Did anybody else know
that Dr. Westlake was up here that night?
Just the rest of the resident team.
David was busy writing up their evaluations.
None of them were too happy about it,
I can tell you that.
You think one of them might have done it?
Be hard-pressed to pick one.
Shaw... Shaw's father's the top radiologist here.
Campion graduated from Harvard, straight A's.
Jackson has an attitude problem,
but he's here under a full scholarship.
Cream of the crop, huh?
You know, David told me something yesterday
about investigating a theft.
Uh, the only thing he told me is he's not gonna stop
until he gets to the bottom of it.
Maybe he did.
I hope that's not my heart. It sounds awful.
That's because you're listening to your stomach.
Huh? Your stomach.
Oh.
Got a nice rhythm.
It's supposed to.
You know...
I developed a little pain right there.
Just every now and then. What do you think it might be?
Why don't you come in for a full physical?
It's been a long time, Ben.
Oh, I don't wanna go through all that
for just a little... Could be your gallbladder.
Gallbladder?
You think so? Maybe.
Hm.
โช Remember that rainy evenin' โช
โช I threw you out with nothi" But a fine-toothed comb โช
You dirty guy.
โช I know that I'm to blame โช
โช Well, ain't that a shame โช
โช Bill Bailey Won't you please come? โช
โช Bailey, won't you Please come? โช
โช Bailey, won't you Please come ho-o-o-ome? โช
Ha-ha-ha.
Thank you. Yes.
I don't know what's better, Ray,
you and Bill Bailey or the salmon.
Rip off a little
"Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby?"
Hello, Tyler.
Gents.
"Is You Is Or Is You Ain't My Baby?"
Hell, no. I'm just a guy you know.
You don't look good.
Where don't I look good?
You ever think about taking a physical?
Now, you're sure this isn't going to hurt?
Relax, Mr. Hudson.
People check in for physicals every day.
Hey, I thought you said this was a private room.
This is your new roommate, Mr. Lipman.
How you doing?
"How am I doing?" I'm in the hospital.
How do you think I'm doing?
Is he always this friendly?
Mr. Lipman is one of our regulars.
Yeah.
I know you.
I saw your picture in the paper.
You're the eyewitness to that murder.
The DA has asked me not to talk about it.
Yeah, if you ask me,
it's the food here that did that poor guy in.
All right, Mr. Hudson,
why don't you lie down and make yourself comfortable.
Okay.
Dr. Hines, outside call.
Dr. Hines, outside call.
How's that?
Just great.
Yeah, this isn't bad at all.
Well, I'm glad to hear it.
Uh, may I?
Sure. Take a seat.
Ben Matlock.
I'm Bruce Jacobs' lawyer.
You're on his resident team, right?
That's right.
Dr. Radburn says
that you're the most promising doctor on that team.
I'm flattered.
It shouldn't come as a surprise.
I mean, you had that scholarship to Harvard
and worked your way through
undergraduate school, medical school.
I know something about how that feels.
It's not easy.
No, it wasn't.
No.
You know, if, uh... If I were in your shoes
and somebody was threatening to ruin my future,
like Dr. Westlake, I'd get pretty mad.
I hope you're not suggesting
what it sounds like you're suggesting.
Oh, no, no, no. Just an observation.
Of course, I will have to ask you
where you were at the time of the murder.
In my apartment.
Alone.
How'd you get there? I heard you needed a ride.
I walked.
Oh.
Well, I guess that takes care of that.
Um, a resident is like a doctor, isn't he?
A resident is a doctor.
Well, I've got this pain,
it came on all of a sudden.
What do you suppose it could be?
At your age it could be diverticulitis.
Herb. Yeah.
Uh, look, I'm telling you,
I got this guy in here, serious peritonitis,
he's been delirious for, like, six hours.
He keeps running off about some takeover
at Waynebeck Industries. I do some checking.
I find out this guy's a stockbroker.
He... Herb.
Herb, listen to me.
You buy me 20,000 shares of that stock immediately.
Dr. Granville,
please call the operator. Dr. Granville.
Dr. Shaw?
Ben Matlock.
I'm Bruce Jacobs' lawyer.
You're on his resident team, right?
That's right.
Hey.
Dr. Radburn says
that you're the most promising member of that team.
Really?
Yeah.
It shouldn't come as a shock.
Uh, Sarah? Me.
Listen, have I got any...?
Okay, I'll hold.
I mean, your father says you're a prominent surgeon,
your uncle's a doctor, your grandfather was a doctor,
you got so many doctors in your family
you can start your own hospital.
It gives you something to live up to,
that's for sure.
I imagine the pressure sometimes is immense.
I sure wouldn't want to disappoint family like that.
How's...? How's the case going?
Uh... Uh...
Sarah? Listen, have I got any mes...?
I'll hold.
Now, how's that?
How's the case going?
Oh, fair. Fair.
It, uh... It would help if we knew which resident
actually killed Dr. Westlake.
You don't include me in that, do you?
Oh, I have to.
You had ample motive,
unless, of course, you can prove where you were
at the time of the murder.
I... I crashed in the doctor's lounge, then I went home,
but I... I can't prove it.
Look,
I didn't have anything to do with his murder.
Uh, yeah, Sarah?
Listen, uh, have I got any mes...?
All right, I'll hold.
Dr. George Freeland,
please report to the third floor...
Hey, doctor?
I've got a pain right there.
Right there? Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
What do you think that could be?
I... There's some stomach flu going around.
Wait. Sarah?
Listen, don't put me on hold anymore.
Have I got any messages?
Who were all those calls for?
Give them Charlene's number in Philadelphia.
Call my broker.
Tell him to sell Waynebeck Industries.
Thanks, doctor.
Oh, what I wouldn't give for a cup of java.
Restricted diet, huh?
"Restricted"?
Never in my life have I seen gray chicken,
and I hope and I pray I never see it again.
I've heard that before.
How long have you been working here?
Eight years this May.
It's a living.
Security must be kind of a tough problem in a place like this.
We run a pretty tight ship.
If anything was going on, I'd know about it,
believe me.
Hey, that's a really nice watch you got there, bud.
Yeah. It's the real thing too.
How can you tell?
Hey, come on. The imitations?
The second hand doesn't sweep like that.
Must have set you back at least 1,500 bucks.
I gotta go.
Hi.
Who are you?
I'm Ben Matlock, Bruce Jacobs' lawyer.
I've been waiting for you. I didn't wanna wake you up.
I know how hard you fellas work.
What do you want?
Well, I'm trying to find out which resident
actually killed Dr. Westlake.
Police seem to think Bruce Jacobs
did a good job of it.
Think he did?
I have no opinion.
Oh.
Dr. Radburn says that he thinks
you're the most promising resident on the team.
I won't debate the point. Yeah.
He also says that you're the most cold-blooded,
ambitious, potentially ruthless doctor he's ever known.
I won't debate the point.
Hey, doctor,
I've got a pain right...
I don't give free advice.
Oh.
Oh!
God bless you.
Oh!
Ben, you have no idea how cold it was in there.
I'm lucky I didn't get pneumonia.
I'm sorry. What happened?
God bless you.
Well, to begin with,
our friend Bernie the security guard
wears a watch I can't even afford.
Last night at 9:30,
two hours after he got off from work,
I saw him open the research lab and let a doctor in.
Did you see who it was?
At night all doctors look the same in uniform.
All I saw was a white jacket and white sneakers,
and then I got locked up.
God bless you.
What kind of research do they do in the lab?
I don't know.
You don't feel like you have a fever exactly.
I hate hospitals.
They are designed to make you sick!
Don't get agitated. Eat your lunch.
It doesn't look too bad,
except maybe for that gray thing.
My friend might be running a little temperature.
Now, we'll have you up and out of here in no time.
Mm.
So, what goes on in here, Dr. Lyden?
Well, we're developing a new vaccine.
Oh?
Uh, anything you can talk about?
Well, at this point our research is confidential.
Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh.
You know, I... I read a piece one time on a...
On a new drug, uh, for... For baldness.
And it said that if a company ever finds one that works,
it will be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
Is your vaccine worth anything like that?
Well, if it works, yes.
Are you at the point where your research
would be worth stealing?
Oh, yes.
Why?
Are you aware someone's been sneaking into your laboratory?
How do you know that?
Well, at this point, my research is confidential.
Actually, I knew someone had accessed my computer.
How's that?
Well, I decided to do some work at home one night last week,
and I tried to log into one of my files,
but I couldn't get in
because the file was already in use.
No one is supposed to be in that file,
and I'm the only one who can get in it by phone,
so I figured someone was in here.
Oh.
What did you do?
Nothing much.
I assumed one of the residents wanted to study my work,
so I notified Dr. Westlake and left it at that.
When was this?
Well, I believe...
it was the night he was murdered.
Now, let me understand this,
you're saying that someone was stealing my research
and that's connected to Dr. Westlake's death?
Like the chicken and the egg, Dr. Lyden.
Only this time,
we know which one came first.
Oh, God.
What are you doing?
Checking out.
Why didn't you tell me what that barium x-ray was like?
You didn't finish your physical yet.
They're killing me!
I brought you these.
I thought they might cheer you up.
You know, I felt great when I checked in here.
I'm sorry.
I hate you for this.
I know.
But I think we finally have a motive for this murder.
Dr. Westlake was not killed
because some resident thought he was gonna
be dropped from the hospital.
He was killed because he caught somebody stealing research
worth millions of dollars.
Did you talk to the security guard?
I don't think that's a good idea.
Well, he knows who's been breaking in the lab.
But if I talk to him,
everybody will get suspicious.
Nurse Richards,
after Dr. Westlake went into his office,
did you see anyone else follow him in?
Yes, sir, I did.
And do you see that individual here in the courtroom now?
Yes, I do. He's seated right over there.
Indicating the defendant.
I saw Dr. Jacobs go into Dr. Westlake's office,
and a few minutes later he left.
And after that did you see anyone else
go in the office?
No, I didn't.
I was across the hall for at least another hour.
No one else went into that office.
No further questions.
Cross-examine?
Um, ahem, Miss Richards,
the way I hear it, in a hospital,
doctors come and go,
but it's the nurses who really
take care of the patients.
Is that right?
Actually, yes.
That must be pretty tough,
on your feet eight hours every day,
taking care of sick people,
crisis coming at you one after another.
Must get pretty tiring.
Yes, sir. It does.
So you leave the hospital right after your shift.
Yes, I do.
But... on the night of the murder,
you didn't.
Now, how's that?
I had some paperwork I had to complete.
Oh, yeah. That's why you were
in the office directly across the hall
from Dr. Westlake's office.
Yes.
And you had a good view
into Dr. Westlake's office.
I mean, you weren't down the hall.
I was right across from his door.
Now, it was after 8:30 at night.
They usually turn down the lights in the hall, don't they?
Yes, they do.
That must make it pretty dim.
Yes, it does.
Well, in that dim light, you sure nobody slipped by you?
Yes, I am.
Now, in that dim light of the hall,
you sure you saw Dr. Jacobs go into Dr. Westlake's office?
Not really.
How did you identify him?
Well, I saw him when he came out of Dr. Westlake's office.
Don't all residents dress pretty much alike?
Pretty much.
So you saw a person coming out of Dr. Westlake's office
wearing the usual dark pants and white lab coat.
Dr. Jacobs was wearing dark pants
and a lab coat, Mr. Matlock.
But in the dim light of the hall,
if all residents dress pretty much alike,
how can you be so sure it was Dr. Jacobs?
I saw his face clearly in the light from the office.
Mr. Matlock.
Uh, excuse me for a moment, Your Honor.
Make it brief.
Mr. Matlock, she's lying.
I didn't have my lab coat on when I left the office.
I got blood on the sleeve inside,
so I took it off, I rolled it up, and had it under
my arm when I left. Yeah?
Well, a security guard saw me with it off.
The security guard wouldn't know when you took it off.
Oh.
Uh, so excuse me, uh, Miss Richards, let's see.
Where were we?
So
You saw a person coming out of Dr. Westlake's office?
Not a person, Mr. Matlock.
Dr. Jacobs. MATLOCK: Wearing dark pants
and carrying a white lab coat.
Is that right?
You're trying to trick me, aren't you?
I'm an officer of this court.
I'd never try do a thing like that.
He was wearing dark pants,
and he was wearing a white lab coat.
And it was Dr. Jacobs.
Thank you, Miss Richards.
Your Honor, I reserve the right
to recall this witness.
That's all for now.
You examined the patient when he was admitted?
Of course.
Didn't occur to you that he might have pneumonia?
I was waiting for the test results to come back.
In the meanwhile,
Mr. Sloane's temperature jumped to 103.
Dr. Radburn, it's for you.
Will you please take a message?
Dr. Jackson,
sometimes we have to... To go with our instincts.
Dr. Radburn, it's Dr. Lyden.
He says it's important.
Yes?
Oh, really?
Oh, that's wonderful.
I'll be right there.
Thank you.
Dr. Jackson.
Let us assume that Mr. Sloane has pneumonia
unless the tests tell us differently, okay?
- Okay. - Thank you.
Well, now, we know who did it and why.
Yeah.
All we have to do now is prove it.
We'll give it a shot.
Ben, I got to give it to you.
You are one sly old fox.
Well, I'll take that as a compliment.
Please do. You convinced that nurse
that there was a breakthrough in the lab.
She calls her boyfriend
and bang-o, we got ourselves a thief.
Well, it'll take more than that.
Somehow we've got to tie our killer to this office.
Yeah.
Hm.
Mm.
Mm.
Well, this don't sound so good.
You're listening to your stomach.
Huh?
Your stomach. Oh.
Yeah. Now, that's better.
Oh, Tyler. What?
You're a genius.
Even when you don't have the faintest idea
what you're doing, you're a genius.
Connect me with Dr. Radburn, please.
Your Honor,
the defense recalls Helena Richards to the stand
and begs the court's permission to examine
her eyewitness testimony with a brief demonstration.
Very well.
I remind you, Miss Richards,
you're still under oath.
I understand.
Miss Richards, you testified yesterday
that most residents dress alike.
Is that correct?
Yes, it is. You also said
that the lights in the hallway were dimmed when you saw someone
come out of Dr. Westlake's office.
Is that correct?
Yes.
Your Honor, at this time
we'd like the defendant to leave the courtroom.
Your Honor,
what is the point of this demonstration?
Your Honor, the point will become clear
in another moment or two.
Go ahead, Dr. Jacobs.
Dr. Radburn of Chadway Hospital,
Your Honor, has graciously agreed
to bring three residents with him this morning.
They're all wearing their white coats
and are dressed exactly as they are
when they're working at the hospital.
Now, Miss Richards,
you testified that you saw the defendant
in the brief moment that he stepped out
of Dr. Westlake's office and went down the hall.
Is that correct? HELENA: Yes.
My associate, Mr. Hudson,
is gonna dim the courtroom lights.
Just tell us when the lights approximate
the way they were in the hallway.
Mm-hm.
Okay, Tyler.
About there. Okay, Tyler. Fine.
Now, each of the residents
will come through that back door,
walk across the back of the room to that screen.
You should be able to see each of them
approximately the same amount of time
you saw the man come out of Dr. Westlake's office.
Just tell us if you recognize Dr. Jacobs.
You ready?
Mm-hm.
Okay, Tyler.
It wasn't him.
Next.
No. MATLOCK: Next.
That's him.
Turn up the lights, Tyler.
Your Honor, may the record reflect
that Miss Richards once again
identified the defendant, Dr. Jacobs?
So noted.
Mr. Matlock?
No further questions, Your Honor.
Uh, just a moment, doctors.
Your Honor, the defense calls Dr. Campion to the stand.
Dr. Campion, how long have you known Helena Richards?
About three years, I guess.
We met when I came to Chadway Hospital.
And how would you characterize your relationship with her?
It was purely professional.
Do nurses usually
perjure themselves for doctors with whom
they're having a purely professional relationship?
Objection. Argumentative.
Assumes facts not yet in evidence.
Sustained.
Dr. Campion, are you sure your relationship with Nurse Richards
is purely professional?
We've socialized occasionally.
I think you're having an intimate relationship with her.
That's why she testified
that she saw Dr. Jacobs leaving Dr. Westlake's office
the night of the murder, to protect you.
Relevancy, Your Honor.
I'm about to show the relevancy, Your Honor.
Proceed.
You're a senior resident, is that right?
Yes.
And soon you'll be leaving Chadway Hospital
and going into private practice. Is that right?
That's right.
It must be very expensive to open an office.
Yes, it is.
Your Honor, at this time,
I'd like to introduce into evidence
Defense Exhibit J.
These bank records of Dr. Campion's savings account.
In the last several months
you've made several healthy deposits, doctor,
for a person living the life of a resident.
Your Honor, you know, I don't see the point to this.
I'm coming to the point.
Proceed.
I think you were stealing
research from Dr. Lyden's laboratory
and selling it to a pharmaceutical company
for a lot of money.
That isn't true.
I'll tell you what else I believe.
I believe Dr. Westlake stumbled onto your thefts
and summoned you to his office,
and when he told you
he was gonna kick you out of his hospital
and turn you over to the police, you killed him.
That's a lie.
Doctor, you said you were at home the night of the murder.
That's where I was.
And you said you were never
in Dr. Westlake's office the night of the murder.
That's right.
You know, doctor,
I don't know a lot about, uh, hospitals or... Or physicians,
but I...
I learned something interesting yesterday.
I learned that almost all doctors
and nurses at Chadway Hospital
purchase their stethoscopes
from the same hospital supply company.
Is that right? Yeah, I guess so.
So there must be a lot of people walking around
with identical stethoscopes.
Yeah.
I guess, uh, people pick up the wrong one once in a while.
I suppose.
Well, I learned that, uh, often times
doctors scratch their initials or their name
or some identifying mark
on the back of their stethoscope,
so it won't get mixed up with somebody else's.
Is that right? Yes.
Do you have an identifying mark on the back of your stethoscope?
My initials are on it.
Do you check it every day to be sure it's yours?
Not usually.
It's always either around my neck
or in my jacket pocket.
And no one ever picks it up by mistake?
It's never happened.
I'm very careful.
You're sure that's your stethoscope?
Yes.
Has the same fit and feel?
Yes.
Doctor, I have a confession to make.
I didn't really think that little demonstration
that, uh, we put on with Nurse Richards
was going to prove that Dr. Jacobs
didn't kill Dr. Westlake.
But I did need you to come down here
dressed as you are every day with your stethoscope.
Would you read what's etched on the back
of your stethoscope?
Read it.
"D.W."
D.W.
David Westlake.
Dr. David Westlake.
What are you doing with that stethoscope?
I don't know.
I do.
In your struggle with Dr. Westlake,
both stethoscopes fell,
and in your hurry to leave after you killed him,
you picked up the wrong one.
No.
Do you recognize this stethoscope?
This stethoscope was found in Dr. Westlake's office.
And etched on the back is M.C.
Mark Campion, 1981.
No further questions.
Has the jury reached a verdict?
Yes, we have, Your Honor.
Defendant, please rise.
What is your verdict?
We find the defendant, Bruce Jacobs, not guilty.
The not-guilty verdict
is entered into the record
and this court is adjourned.
Congratulations. Thanks, Mr. Matlock.
Thank you so much.
Very nice work, Ben.
Oh, thanks.
I really enjoyed watching you.
Thanks.
Still bothering you, huh?
Well... You know, by watching you,
I know what your problem is.
Yeah?
You're too fat.
Either lose weight or get a bigger belt.
