The Making of 'Dr. T and the Women' Page #4

---

Easy, easy.

Right there. You feel a lump, right?

That's normal. That's fine.

Normal. Normal.

Dorothy...

...you are a specimen.

The picture of health.

Nothing to worry about whatsoever.

You're absolutely perfect.

Are you sure, Dr. T?

I've been feeling kind of funny

the past couple days.

No, no, positive.

No, everything looks great.

You look absolutely fantastic,

actually.

You look wonderful.

Just great.

Does anyone tell you that lately?

- No.

- No?

Well, yes.

You and...

...your nurse...

...and your bookkeeper and your

receptionist, as a matter of fact.

- All in the last ten minutes.

- Then it must be true.

But they told me the same thing

when I was here two weeks ago.

And the time before that.

In fact, they always say that.

Dr. T? Sorry.

Barbara Lloyd's in labour.

Her husband called.

They're on their way to the hospital.

You can get dressed now.

Tell them I'm on my way too.

- That's it?

- That's it.

I'm sorry, gotta go.

Delivering a baby. Twins.

We can cancel the rest.

Man, I have been here

for an hour and a half...

Ladies, thank you. I'm sorry.

- Judy, take care of them soon.

- All right, Dr. T.

I've got a load of messages here.

Are you coming back?

- Doubtful.

- Call me anyway.

- Samples. I get them for free.

- Do I get them for free?

Duck season opens next week.

Why don't we get some?

- I'm in. I'm in.

- All right.

Oh, my God!

- Hello there.

- Hey, Bree.

- Here's a dry one.

- Thank you very much.

Oh, my God.

- You always that good?

- Well, when it matters I seem to be.

Which is all the time, right?

Harlan told me you play on the tour.

Yeah, almost ten years now.

- Are you off-season now?

- No, just taking some time off.

Sort of indefinitely.

If I'm gonna get nine holes in today,

I better go.

- You got a partner?

- No.

You want one?

- Well, your cart or mine?

- Mine's dry.

- Let's take yours.

- All right.

No, I got it. I got it.

- You got it?

- Yep.

Oh, my God.

- Nice shoes.

- Oh, thank you.

Shall we go?

Yeah.

Group 3 will be going to Washington

DC to visit the White House.

Anyone on the alternate status...

...will be doing the performance

at the Huntsville Prison Rodeo.

Of course, we have two football

games in the next couple weeks.

- Whose phone is that?

- It's not mine.

It's gotta be somebody's phone.

Whose is it?

You know, it's probably mine.

I think I left it on.

I'll just be right over here.

It's an emergency.

Take your emergency

to the locker room.

Yes, ma'am.

Now, where was I?

Dee Dee, it's Connie.

Listen, I've only got a second.

The Zapruder film starts soon

so don't interrupt me.

Girl, what do you want?

We need to talk about

this Marilyn situation.

Has it ever occurred to you that

she has something else up her sleeve?

Besides being your maid of honour?

This is really a bad time.

I have to go.

You know what? Something else

just occurred to me.

The wedding shouldn't be outdoors.

Why not?

Because this is Texas, you know.

You can't count on the weather.

Fall is the most beautiful

time of year in Texas.

It'll be beautiful out by the lake.

I'm willing to take that chance.

Dee Dee, listen.

Fall storms are like snipers, and

they hit you when you least expect.

So you've been in the top 25

for the last four years.

What made you walk away?

Nobody believes me when I say this...

...but I just stopped having fun.

It became about something else.

It became about not losing

instead of winning.

It became about relief instead of joy.

It became about the game

instead of me.

Well, I believe you.

- You do?

- Yes, I do.

- Pass some more dough, Amber.

- That's good!

I think the phone is ringing.

Where's the phone, Maria?

- It should be here.

- I don't have enough dough.

- Where is it?

- Hello?

Hi, Amber!

Hey, it's your cousin Deeds.

Hi, Aunt Peggy.

Hey, honey! Hi.

We're baking away here.

So you'll have treats

when you get home.

Looks like I'm packing up

to go to Huntsville.

- Lf I even make it to next week.

- What do you mean, sweetie?

Well, I left my cell phone on

during rehearsal.

It just kept ringing and ringing.

And rumour has it I'm gonna

be on the wait-warning list.

Wait, what do you mean?

I really think it's crazy, you know?

I mean, your body's so cute and...

Everybody will try to make you

something you're not.

Or already are

and they don't see it...

...or have some ridiculous concept

or idea of a body from a magazine.

At least the prisoners won't mind.

Listen, Aunt Peg, Connie called

me just a little while ago.

She's trying to talk me out

of having an outdoor wedding.

That's what you want, isn't it?

I really, really want to have

my wedding out by the lake.

It's really important to me,

and it is my wedding.

- It is your wedding.

- Connie's so stubborn.

It's not her wedding.

She'll have a wedding.

One day, you'll start telling her

how she should have her wedding.

I just want your support

if it comes up again.

Well, that is what I'm here for.

Aunts and grandmas, right?

The unconditional love, hopefully.

That's what I want to give y'all.

That you know, I mean, I will support

you 100 trillion-billion percent.

Dee Dee, can I see you

in my office please?

- Right now, ma'am?

- Yeah, it'll just take a minute.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll call you later.

Shoot.

- Good luck.

- Bye, Dee Dee.

You deliver babies.

My God, what a thing!

Being there for a person's

first breath!

Yeah, it's awesome.

You know, I delivered twin girls

a couple of hours ago.

One was right on top of the other.

It was touch-and-go which one

was gonna come out first.

That is exciting. Yeah.

You know, I've delivered...

Oh, God, I don't know,

22 sets of twins.

Yeah, 22.

One thing I've noticed is that

if at least one of them is a boy...

...there's an order

about how they arrive.

Like they made a game plan

ahead of time.

One sits there waiting patiently

while the other one's born.

But invariably, if both

are female, forget it.

It's one big race to the finish line.

- Nice shot.

- Thank you.

- What do you think that means?

- I don't know.

I got it, I got it, I got it.

Thank you.

- I'm not a twin. I don't have sisters.

- No sisters?

- Any brothers?

- Three.

- Do you have kids?

- Two daughters.

- Well, that must be fun.

- Yeah, most of the time.

Both of them are a little nuts

right now.

One's getting married

and the other's kind of jealous.

You're driving?

Yeah, I think they both miss

their mother right now too.

So how's your wife doing?

Not so good.

She's...

Been a long time.

Look how good they turned out!

Your hearts, how pretty.

- Isn't that good?

- Yeah.

You did so good.

Thank you. Hello?

Thank you, ma'am.

- Listen, it's Connie.

- Hey, honey. How are you?

I just talked to Dee Dee

a little bit ago.

She's continuing to insist

on this outdoor wedding idea...

...which I just think

is just completely insane.

Not to mention dangerous

for all of us.

Why do you think so?
