Text

START: MARGARET: He’ll be right with you, he’s just changing. Can I get you something? Tea?
GELLBURG: (faint reprimand) He said five o’clock sharp.
MARGARET: He was held up in the hospital, that new union’s pulled a strike, imagine? A strike in a hospital? It’s incredible. And his horse went lame.
[... …]
END: MARGARET: (hits her own head) Gellburg, excuse me! --It practically sounds like Goldberg…
GELLBURG: No-no, look in the phonebook, it’s the only one, G-e-l-l…
(Enter Dr. Hyman)
MARGARET: (with a little wave to Gellburg) Be seeing you!
GELLBURG: Be in good health.
