Rescue Me, Season 1

[After everyone gets up and leaves]

Tommy:
Look, Doc...

Dr. Goldberg:
Oh, you don't need to explain, I was at another firehouse last night and the reaction was quite similar.

Tommy:
The guys, uh, they're not gonna talk to a psychotherapist in the firehouse, especially not uh, female one.

Dr. Goldberg:
What about the female firefighters?

Tommy:
We don't have any female firefighters in this house.

Dr. Goldberg:
Are you threatened by women?

Tommy:
No.

Dr. Goldberg:
You-- you don't seem to think that a woman can be a firefighter.

Tommy:
I'll tell you what, it's not about being a man or a woman, okay? It's about doing the job. It's about me getting home safe and sound in the morning to see my kids, okay? So, you got a woman who can do the job better than the guys on my crew? Bring her on. You know? You got a martian, or a cyborg, or a Chinaman that can do the job, bring them on too.

Dr. Goldberg:
Are there any Chinese firefighters?

Tommy:
Yeah, probably. Somewhere in... China.

Dr. Goldberg:
I'm sensing a lot of hostility.

Tommy:
You are very, very perceptive.

Dr. Goldberg':
That's what they tell me.
