Private Practice, Season 3

Naomi:
We had a deal, William. Hiring was my responsibility and you went around me. You knew that I would object to his research, his attitude and ultimately his hiring.

William:
I was aware that you might object to some of his research, yes. Okay, would object. But he became available, there were other people interested, I had to make a decision. Think of the potential, sickle cell, hemophilia, cystic fibrosis, his work has the ability to change the face of medicine as we know it, that's what you and I wanted.

Naomi:
He has no moral center. He supports eugenics. He wants me to help him design a baby.

William:
That's what you do, Naomi! When you weed out for disease. You're afraid of the slippery slope, but you're already on it.

Naomi:
Maybe, but I am not skiing down it.

William:
I'm not asking you to accept him, I'm telling you. Find a way to make it work.
