Dr. Mark Greene:
I can't believe they call it a tumor board.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Why? They discuss tumors.

Dr. Mark Greene:
Think they'd come up with something less esoteric.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Like what?

Dr. Mark Greene:
I don't know, like "You're completely boned" board.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
I heard they used to call it the "Poor bastard" board, but too many people kept showing up.

Dr. Mark Greene:
Someone told me they tried "Take me out back and shoot me now" Board for awhile.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
It didn't stick?

Dr. Mark Greene:
No, surprisingly.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Why not?

Dr. Mark Greene:
Too many letters I guess.

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Hmm. I see.

Dr. Mark Greene:
Elizabeth?

[pauses]

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Will we have this baby either way?

Dr. Mark Greene:
What?

Dr. Mark Greene:
If that man comes out, and tells me we won't beat it, will we still have the baby?

Dr. Elizabeth Corday:
Of course.
