Quotes

Take Me Out of the Ballgame

Best Medicine

  • Dr. Martin Best: The kidneys regulate calcium, vitamin D and phosphorus levels.
  • Dr. Martin Best: Well, one twin can develop with reversed organs due to a later-than-usual embryonic split, so...
  • Louisa Gavin: I, I just found out that this school might be closing due to lack of funding. Yeah. I'm not surprised. I mean, it's economics. I mean, school serves too few students. It's not financially feasible.
  • Dr. Martin Best: But also, I might lose my job. I mean, this is the only job that I ever wanted, and basically the only real job I ever had.
  • Louisa Gavin: Does no one understand that? I mean, I thought, I thought maybe because of the malpractice suit, you, you could relate.
  • Elaine Denton: It's called Vanishing Twin Syndrome. It's a really nice way of saying I ate my sister.
  • Dr. Martin Best: I think you might have a kidney stone, which needs to be broken up sooner than later, since you only have one kidney, a fact you could have mentioned. But, hey, here we are.Louisa, will you call the paramedics?
  • Louisa Gavin: Yeah, um, of course.
  • Dr. Martin Best: That explains the back pain. What does a kidney stone have to do with brittle bones?
  • Glendon Roth Jr.: How should I know?
  • Dr. Martin Best: Unless you're not processing protein. Then you would have to be overdosing it. Are we consuming an excess of protein?
  • Glendon Roth Jr.: Well, I do try to bulk up during the season.
  • Dr. Martin Best: But situs inversus organ reversal is most common among identical twins.
  • Dr. Martin Best: You see here? No bluish tint. That means we know it's probably not osteogenesis imperfecta.
  • Elaine Denton: Better latte than never!
