Susan: But I gotta be honest, the fact that you can't even cut that steak isn't helping.
Dr.Ron: That's not fair. You overcooked it, and, frankly, it's not the freshest meat.
Susan: Well, neither am I. I've got thirty-five years on that cow.

Tom: Maybe...
Lynette: I can't believe you've actually thought about this!
Tom: Haven't you?
Lynette: Thought about who'd I'm marry if you died? Hmm.... NO!

Carlos: I'm sorry, but this is your mistake. You're going to have to fix it yourself.
Gabrielle: And I would love to, but I have the upper body strength of a kitten. I need a brute!

Dr. Ron: So, so... I was up all night, worried sick, digging through medical books trying to figure out some mysterious disease that doesn't really exist?
Susan: Really? You were up all night?
Dr. Ron: Yes! I don't enjoy telling people I think they're going to die! Especially not people I like!
Susan: You like me?
Dr. Ron: Yes!

Susan: Maybe we could go out sometime.
Dr. Ron: (pauses, gestures...) Do you like sushi?
Susan: I love sushi. I'm available tomorrow night...
Dr. Ron: No, no, no... tomorrow's no good - I'll still be angry. I should be cooled down by Friday.

Tom: I'm serious, Lynette. I don't make the money around here anymore. I don't provide for you and the kids. And I wasn't gonna let them snip out the last thing that makes me a man. (referring to a vasectomy)
Lynette: Staying home and taking care of the kids doesn't make you less of a man. That's crazy.
Tom: You expect me to calm your irrational fears. I expect you to calm mine.
Lynette: You're you saying you're unhappy?
Tom: A little bit, yeah.
Lynette: Well, what we gonna do about that?
Tom: I don't know.
Lynette: Well, can't we just---?
Tom: No, Lynette. I don't know.

(narrating) Illnesses can take on many forms. Those of the body are easy to treat. (shot of Lynette treating one of her chicken-pox infested sons) Much more difficult are the hidden maladies that fester in our hearts. (Camera pans to Tom, who is away from his kids.) The secret addictions that consume our souls. (Shot of Ralph looking at Internet pornography) And the diseases we deny that affect our judgment. (Shot of Bree drinking a glass of wine on her porch) To survive, we need to find that special someone who can heal us. (Shot of Susan meeting Dr. Ron, giving him a muffin basket) But we can never predict who will ahve the cure for what ails us (Shot of Noah talking in bed as a nurse attends to him.) Or when they'll show up. (The nurse turns out to be Felicia Tillman.)
