"Doctor, you told me on the phone you had some surprising news?"
"Yes, the Springfield Times reports that the mayor was caught with a sex worker."
"Let me try again. Any news about my blood test?"
"Oh, yes. The results came back."
"And?"
"Let me check... you do have blood."
"Jeez. Can you tell me something I don't already know?"
"Did you know that the female hyena has a pseudo-penis?"
"I did not know this, but this isn't what I was asking."
"I'm coming to the conclusion that you are a difficult patient."
"I'd like a second opinion."
"I like ice cream."
"No, I need a referral for a second opinion."
"Okay, I suggest you go see Doctor Xltl."
"Doctor who?"
"Now, don't be silly. Doctor Who is an imaginary character. I said Doctor Smith."
"And I'm going to get my second opinion from this Doctor Smith?"
"I don't know why you would think this."
"What?"
"You'll get Doctor Jones' second opinion, not *yours*."
"Where does this Doctor Jones work?"
"Doctor James works in an office."
"I mean, what's the address?"
"Doctor Adams, of course. How else would you address a doctor named Johnson?"
