[Chandler and Fiscus are in the lounge watching Ehrlich's latest Health Spot on the evening news, talking over Victor as they make commentary]

Dr. Chandler:
And bribe the driver to take you to Boston General instead of this place.

Dr. Ehrlich:
An experienced senior doctor will be directly in charge of your case, and will carefully explain your condition and the length of time you'll be required to stay. Should there be any discomfort involved, modern analgesics are always available.

Dr. Fiscus:
From dealers loitering in our hallways.

Dr. Ehrlich:
Physical therapy and other hospital services are scheduled at your convenience, and nutritious meals are served promptly from heated carts at your bedside.

Dr. Chandler:
He forgot to mention tennis courts and scuba lessons.

Dr. Ehrlich:
...during regularly scheduled visiting hours, and often play a positive role in the healing process.

Dr. Fiscus:
And when you receive your hospital bill, you'll have a heart attack and be whisked back upstairs by courteous attendants.

Dr. Chandler:
Are you as sick of these Health Spots as I am?

Dr. Ehrlich:
...hospital etiquette. Until then, I'm Dr. Victor Ehrlich with another Health Spot.

[Fiscus gets up and turns off the TV]
