Dr. Silverman : So where's my book?
Nancy Krieger Weston : Elliot?
Elliot Weston : [blowing into a thermometer as if it were a toy] Oh yeah, sure.
Dr. Silverman : [prodding at Nancy's incision] Does that hurt?
Nancy Krieger Weston : Oh! Of course it does! What do you think?
Eleanor Krieger : [chastising] Nancy!
Dr. Silverman : So I hear you want to go home, huh?
Nancy Krieger Weston : [irritable] Who doesn't?
Dr. Silverman : You look pretty good. Maybe Wednesday or Thursday. We'll talk to Doctor Verney about it.
Nancy Krieger Weston : Great.
Dr. Silverman : You got somebody to help you? There's no driving for four weeks post-op.
Nancy Krieger Weston : [incredulous, rolling her eyes] I can't drive without ovaries?
Dr. Silverman : [laughing] It's meant to keep you home; make you crazy.
Delivery Lady : Mrs. Weston?
Elliot Weston : Yeah, that's us. What is that?
Delivery Lady : [holding a strange-looking, stuffed bird] Beats me.
Eleanor Krieger : What is this thing?
[taking a candy from the bird and popping it into her mouth]
Eleanor Krieger : Mmmm, raspberry! Who wants some?
Dr. Silverman : Ooh, I love raspberry! They have soft centers?
Eleanor Krieger : [sucking on a candy] Can't tell yet.
Elliot Weston : [reading the card] Look, it's from David and Lynn!
Dr. Silverman : [back to Nancy to whom no one has offered a candy] You're not going to do too much when you get home, right?
Elliot Weston : [before Nancy can answer] Naw, we're not going to allow it, are we Eleanor?
Eleanor Krieger : Nope.
[sucking on the candy some more and scowling]
Eleanor Krieger : Not soft. Hard.
Dr. Silverman : [disappointed] Mmph.

Nancy Krieger Weston : [making Eleanor turn and listen] So, tell me about chemotherapy.
Dr. Silverman : I want to get the final pathology. I'm hoping it'll be minimal. It's a few weeks down the line.
[to Eleanor about the candy]
Dr. Silverman : Can I have some more of these?
Nancy Krieger Weston : [distracted] Sure.
Dr. Silverman : [handing Nancy the book] Here. Sign this.
Nancy Krieger Weston : What should I say?
Dr. Silverman : I don't know. You're the writer.
Nancy Krieger Weston : [to Elliot] Shouldn't you be home?
Elliot Weston : No, the kids are having dinner at the Mitchell's tonight.
Nancy Krieger Weston : Britty hates Coco Mitchell! She bites!
[Elliot just makes a face at her]
Dr. Silverman : [taking the book back from Nancy] Thanks.
Nancy Krieger Weston : Sure.
Dr. Silverman : We'll see you tomorrow?
Nancy Krieger Weston : 'Kay.
Elliot Weston : [to Dr. Silverman] Can I talk to you for a sec?
Dr. Silverman : Mmm-huh.
Nancy Krieger Weston : Elliot?
Elliot Weston : [back towards Nancy as he walks the doctor out of the room] Just a sec.
Nancy Krieger Weston : [looking at her mom, irritated] What does he need to say that he can't say it in front of me?
