Ah, there.

Puccini should do the trick.

Let it carry you away.

There, now.

Better?

Thank you.

Oh, no. No, I haven't always

practiced here.

My story?

I believe there's a story

to be told on every corner.

I had a beautiful wife.

I had a beautiful home.

We had a perfect life together.

Brooke!

But underneath that clean,

white surface,

there was the stench

of decay.

Brooke!

Hello?

The IRS?

Yes. Yes, it's me.

Yeah, look, Mr. Goldblum...

No. No, sir, I'm not trying to

avoid you, but I told you before,

all my returns are handled

by my business manager.

It's, uh... i-it's just a mistake.

But it's their mistake.

You can't do this to me.

Yes.

Yes, we can meet.

My office.

No. No, no.

Not this afternoon.

I'm sorry, but that is impossible.

Fine, fine.

Whatever you say.

Yes, a checkup.

Yes, I could.

See you then.

- What is it, honey?

- Look at this.

- What?

- There. You can't see that?

The stain?

How could you let them

send it back looking like that?

- I can't wear that.

- I'm sorry, I must have missed it.

- Now I have to wear this!

- Well, what's wrong with it?

My diamond cufflinks.

When I wear white shirts,

I wear my diamond cufflinks,

but I can't wear my diamond cufflinks,

because their still at the jeweler's

having the stones reset, unless,

of course, you picked them up for me.

I didn't have a chance.

I've been working on

a fundraiser all week long--

Things are going to hell around here!

This has got to stop, Brooke!

I wanted to wait

until tonight, but, uh...

Happy anniversary.

Platinum.

You are amazing.

- What would I do without you?

- I don't know.

They must have cost a fortune.

I just... I'm con--

Where are we going tonight?

That is my surprise.

You just be ready at seven.

Well, I need to know

what to wear.

- Your black dress.

- Oh, that little black dress?

The little black dress.

Happy anniversary.

- Honey, you know what?

- You're not wearing anything.

Well, I was going to take

a shower after you left.

You were dressed like that

in front of the pool man?

I'm wearing a robe.

Yeah, but... Brooke,

you gotta be careful.

- You know what I mean.

- Alan, don't ruin it.

- You've been smoking.

- I have not.

You're lying to me.

I can smell it on your breath.

Now, I have to

brush my teeth again.

- Just be ready by seven.

- Fine.

Nothing, no matter

how good or how pure...

... is free of decay.

Once the decay gets started,

it can only lead to rot, filth, corruption.

Hey.

Hey, w-w-what is all that brown crap?

- Make sure you clean that up, right?

- Hey, your filter's shot, man.

You need a new one.

I'll take care of it next week.

No. No, no. Not next week.

I want it done tomorrow.

- Do you hear me?

- Oh, man. I'm busy tomorrow.

If you want to keep your job,

you'll have it done tomorrow.

Hey, like I said...

Tomorrow, man.

The filth was everywhere.

The infection was spreading.

How deep did it go?

Right to the nerve?

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, that's good.

Get your filthy hands off her!

I am very disappointed in you!

- Please, Mr. Feinstone.

- Doctor! Dr. Feinstone!

I am a dentist!

And this is my wife,

you filthy piece of sh*t!

- Please, please.

- Do you know what that means?

It means that she has got

a perfect bite!

Come on, hon!

Show him how good your teeth are!

Show him how good your teeth are!

Show him your teeth!

You lying b*tch!

You cocksucking whore!

- Show him! Show him!

- No! No!

- Show him!

- No!

Is the dentist here or what?

If you could just have a seat.

Dr. Feinstone will see you

all just as soon as he can.

Jody has jamboree at 10:30.

There won't be a problem.

We don't want him to miss that.

Oh, could you fill this out

for me, please? Thank you.

I'm sorry.

I can't wait anymore.

He'll be with you

just as soon as possible.

I've been waiting over an hour.

Would you like to make

another appointment?

- I had an appointment!

- I'm sorry, Mr. Schaeffer.

If you could just relax

and have a seat,

I know he'll be with you

as soon as possible.

Mr. Schaeffer?

- Any sign of him?

- No.

Great. We're going to have

to rush the morning patients.

I know. I know.

8:
30 already left.

This is all going to be

my fault somehow. Watch.

- Good attitude, Jessica.

- Watch.

April?

April Reign?

Where is he?

I'm calling him.

Alan?

- What are you doing here?

- I, uh... Paula.

I didn't want to call

from the house,

but I'm thinking about throwing Brooke

a surprise party next week.

I wanted to make sure

the time was good for you.

- Yeah. What day?

- Friday.

Friday's good.

You really should schedule a time.

A checkup.

- Oh, God, I hate dentists.

- Yeah, but we've got that filling to redo.

It's only getting worse.

Well...

I guess I should.

The office will call, then.

- Matt.

- Hey, what's up, baby?

Did you miss me, baby?

- Welcome to Heaven.

- It's kinda neat.

Well, Dr. Feinstone believes that

it helps to relax the patient.

I could certainly use

some relaxing.

So...

You're a beauty queen?

Just the state fair.

I'm sorry.

The doctor is not in yet.

Okay, fine. Thank you.

Will you excuse me for a minute?

Um, I'll be right back.

Dr. Feinstone?

You know I don't

want you anymore.

You bore me.

Hey, like I said...

Tomorrow, man.

I'll throw her out

into the streets,

where she belongs,

with nothing.

Just fill this out for me, please.

Thank you.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- I know I'm early.

- You're not due until 11:30.

- Couldn't wait, huh?

- I know, no more braces; thank God!

And tnight, I'm going to have

this really cool party.

I'd like you to schedule an appointment

for Mrs. Roberts for tomorrow afternoon.

Okay.

Nope, nope. You've got your

seminar tomorrow afternoon.

Right.

See if you can make

it first thing tomorrow.

Okay.

Oh, Mr. Schaeffer, your 8:30,

had to leave,

but Jody Sanders is ready.

It's his first time.

- Jody Sanders?

- Oh, that's us.

Jody, it's your turn.

Isn't this exciting, sweetheart?

I know you're just

going to do great.

Hi, there.

How you doing today, Jody?

- Fine.

- Is this your first trip to the dentist?

Are you a little scared?

No? Good.

Give me five.

All right, let's go.

Thank you.

I was lying down in my office.

I had a little migraine.

We're just glad

to have you here.

Isn't this exciting?

Jessica, could you help me

with the patient, please?

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't know you had arrived.

I've been here for almost two hours.

We'll be in the rainforest room.

Jessica, where's

the patient's tray?

It's all prepared.

I'll go get it for you...

...o king of the jungle.

So have you taken

a look around, huh?

Yes.

We've turned dentistry

into interactive medicine.

What do you think about

this room here, Jody, huh?

Pretty cool?

You see, I think it's important

for the patient to enjoy

a positive dental experience

conducive to continued care.

You ready to get started?

Today, I'm just going to

take a look at your teeth.

That's all I'm gonna do.
