You know how long have you had these pains, Mr. Barber?
No, that's Babar.
Two B's?
- One "B." B-A-B-A-R. - That's two.
Yeah, but not right next to each other. I thought that's what you meant.
Arnold Babar.
Isn't there a children's book about an elephant named Babar?
- I don't know. I don't have any. - No children?
No, elephant books.
Open wide.
You know, it's an odd name.
I don't recall I've ever seen it on the club registry.
Well, I don't formally belong. I'm a guest of my aunt's.
Your aunt?
- Right. Mrs. Smith. - Joan or Margaret?
- Well, which one? - Margaret.
Funny old bird.
- I could tell you some stories. - I bet.
You know, it's a shame about Ed.
Oh, it was. That was really a shame.
To go so suddenly.
He was dying for years.
But the end was very, very sudden.
He was in intensive care for eight weeks.
Yeah, but I mean the very end
when he actually died that was extremely sudden.
You know, Alan and I were recently speaking of dying.
He told me Boyd Aviation took out a large insurance policy on him.
You've got to be in some kind of perfect shape...
to get that sort of a policy, I bet.
Drop your shorts and bend over, Mr. Babar.
Oh, no, really. We don't need to.
We don't want to do that.
My kidneys feel a lot better in this position.
Maybe it's that I'm not doing any calisthenics.
If I did some sit-ups in the morning or bent over like this, I'd probably feel...
Moon River
Thank you, Doc. You ever serve time?
- Breathe easy. - Breathe easy.
You know, I was surprised that Alan was able to get that policy.
I know, there's a history of cancer in the family.
- There is? - Yeah.
As a matter of fact... Aah! You using the whole fist, Doc?
Just relax.
Yeah, I saw Alan the other day. He was looking a little peaked.
Are you sure he's all right?
I can't discuss another patient. You know that.
Well, I don't find that anything wrong with you.
Well, I'm sure it's not for a lack of looking.
