Otherwise you might Come home with a new...

[ siren wailing ]

Ah, mam, The ambulance is here

Would you like to go Show them in?

Sure.

I don't know, doc.

It didn't seem To bother me at first.

I mean, having Somebody else's heart.

But then when you think about it And you start talking about it,

It seems so unnatural, You know what I mean?

Blood pressure Is 110 over 70.

Do you...

Do you talk about it A lot with your wife?

Oh.

[ chuckles ]

Well, she was Against it at first,

But the doctor and I,

We kind of talked her Into going along with it.

Well, I'm glad you did.

I am too. [ chuckling ]

[ door opening ] I'm telling you, doctor,

For the first year We were married,

He never missed a day-- Not a day.

That's very impressive.

Some days, there would be A valentine in the mail,

And other days, I'd find A poem pinned to my pillow.

One morning, I even found

A sonnet attached To the vacuum cleaner.

He certainly Sounds imaginative.

Do you want to know

How every last one Of them were signed?

Well...

Well, I'll tell you. No. I'll tell you

How they were signed. "With all my heart."

Hisheart, the heart Your modern medicine threw away.

They took out his heart And gave him back to me,

But he's... Oh, he's not The man I married, no. No.

Not the same man At all. No!

The nurse is going To take some blood.

It's just a precaution. I'll be back in a minute.

Sure. Thanks, doc.

Well, it's just about What we figured, kel.

[ sighs ]

Keep an eye on him, Will you, joe?

Sure.

Mrs. Fennedy, would you come With me for a moment?

Mrs. Fennedy: He'll be all right?

Kelly: yes, He'll be fine.

Your wife certainly Speaks her mind, doesn't she?

[ chuckles ]

If you will just listen to...

No, mrs. Fennedy, You listen to me.

The human heart is A muscular organ, that's all.

It weighs about Eleven ounces

And it's about The size of my fist.

It beats 60 to 100 times A minute,

And pumps almost 7,000 liters of blood

Through your body Every 24 hours.

Now, as remarkable As all that is,

The heart is not responsible For, and I promise you,

Totally incapable Of signing love letters.

It's a pump. Nothing more, nothing less.

Doctor, I am telling you

That he is not The same man.

Then if he's changed, I'd say it's due to you

Constantly reminding him That he's different.

Oh, now, wait a minute...No, you wait.

Your husband's been through An emotional experience.

And if you keep on him Like you've been doing,

There's a good chance

He'll psychosomatically Reject his heart.

He's almost there now.

I just wish you knew How many people,

How many thousands Of people, die each year

Because they can't get a heart Transplant and another chance.

They'd sell Their souls for one,

But there're simply Not enough to go around.

Unfortunately, not everyone's

As lucky as your husband, Mrs. Fennedy.

You see, Dr. Brackett, you...

His pain was very likely Brought on by emotional stress.

Now, if you'll Excuse me,

I've got to get back To your husband.

[ boot whining ]

Boot, do you mind?

[ whining ]

You know, roy, It's only got to be one thing.

Just one thing only.

What's that?

They've had Boxers for years.

Ever since the irish Setter craze dwindled.

So you could Locate the dog?

By all means.

He's in a cage In my office.

You mean you were Attacked in your office?

Mmm-hmm. Happens all the time.

I'm sorry, um, mr...

It's "Doctor." Dr. Felix schell, dvm.

Well, I apologize For my confusion, doctor.

I didn't know you Were a veterinarian.

Dix, will you Get a bp?

I usually patch myself up After these little accidents,

But I thought that This might take a stitch or two.

Well, it's a good thing You came by.

Does this sort of thing Happen often, doctor?

No, not really.

My big problem Is communication.

You see, you folks can Talk to your patients

And they can tell you Where it hurts or what's wrong.

Unfortunately, with me It's a lot of trial and error.

That was the case With the feldmans' boxer.

Sounds like it could Be pretty dangerous.

Oh, sometimes. It keeps me on my toes.

Bp is 180 over 90.

What made you decide To become a vet?

Oh, variety, mainly.

Again, in your field Your patients are all alike,

Whereas mine have got Two stomachs or horns

Or pockets For babies.

You've got a point.

But I figure, you get out Of life what you put in it,

So I'll tackle Anything that's sick.

I've got a lot of scars, But I've got a lot of friends.

Well, we're gonna Take care of it.

[ exhales ]

Well, I guess we better Get this thing cleaned up.

Yeah, if they haven't Been by yet.

I'll check.

All right, I'm gonna Get washed up

And get the rags, Clean it off. All right.

Hey, you don't think The chief will be pulling

A night inspection On us, do you?

Nope.

Yeah, well besides,

The supervisor'll Probably be busy tonight.

You know, they're always Busy at a benefit

Or a fund raising Party or something.

Roy: hi.

Wait a minute... What?

Where are The lunch leftovers?

Well, there was Some left over, but...

Well, we had lasagna And, uh, leftover...

Well, it just, kind of, Didn't look good.

Oh, I see. So rather than Have the supervisor

See a refrigerator With leftovers,

Which is the main reason For having a refrigerator

In the first place, You threw out the lunch.

There's some neatly arranged Celery in the crisper.

Swell.

So, other than A mild concussion,

Brackett says He's gonna be fine.

Good.

Where're the other guys?
