The Making of 'Dr. T and the Women' Page #6

---

- Hairstyle?

- Yeah.

The new kind of up thing

she's doing with her hair.

Oh, you mean the hair on her head.

The water's nice.

No.

- You cold?

- No, I'm okay.

You cold?

A little bit.

If we sit here long enough, we'll

see the Lady of the Lake.

Who's that?

You don't know the Lady of the Lake?

It's a famous legend.

This woman in this flowing,

white, exotic negligee...

She drowned... I'm serious.

She drowned because of a broken heart.

Really?

She appears to couples

around the lake who are in love.

And she either cries for help...

...or she just cries this really

sad, mournful cry.

I believe it. I mean,

people swear it's true.

I believe it.

So, Sully. How's Kate doing?

Doing all right, I guess.

According to the doctors.

You mean, they still haven't

let you see her?

No.

They say she needs more time.

I don't know dick about psychology,

or women either for that matter...

...but it just doesn't seem right,

them not letting you see her.

She's your wife, for chrissake.

I know. I know, I feel the same way,

but I'm trying to trust them.

They say if I do it too soon...

...it'll set her back even farther.

Right there in our decoys.

That wasn't in our decoys,

that was our decoy.

Sh*t! That's it.

Ready to go, Eli?

- I swear there's feathers.

- I think we're going home now.

It moved. Oh, sh*t.

I'm Dr. Sully Travis. I'm here to

see Kate Travis, a patient of yours.

You're one of her doctors?

Yes, I am.

Is Dr. Harper expecting you today?

No, no. She...

I think she'd be fine with it

though, that I see Kate.

I'm her husband.

To be honest...

...I can't face another day without

seeing her. I miss her so much.

Look.

It's sort of like Chagall, moody.

This is the land, this is the sky.

What's that?

The sun? Maybe a big marshmallow?

Look what I painted.

No! Go away, we're playing a game.

You keep doing that!

Anyway, it's like Chagall.

- Chagall?

- There's a storm.

Where's the Chagall?

Where's the storm?

Hi!

Oh, God, you!

Oh, you came!

Oh, gosh.

You look great.

Look who came to see me.

Say hello to Ann, the cleaning girl.

And Angie.

Remember, I told you?

Well, this is...

- Hello, I'm Alice.

- It's not Alice.

- Bunny and...

- Katie, Katie, Katie.

This is who I've been telling you

about. Sully, my brother.

Oh, it's her brother!

I have a brother. I have a brother.

No, no. Don't sit there.

I'm not gonna sit there,

I'm siting here.

No, thank you.

Kate.

Kate, please?

It's my heart.

Juanita, I don't want any material

that's gonna gather by her hips.

It's not flattering.

It doesn't need to be taken in.

Olga, please help me out here?

Stop smoking.

I'm gonna smoke, Dee Dee.

But I also want this to come down...

Can somebody get me

a Diet Coke, please?

Her breastbone is the best part of

her body, so if it could come down.

- Doesn't she look beautiful?

- She looks really beautiful.

- Get Marilyn champagne!

- I've got some.

- You know what?

- What?

I'm fine, really. Everything's

fine. The dress is fine.

I really wouldn't worry about

me at all, okay?

Hello!

Dad?

Is anybody here?

Where is everybody?

Connie?

Your dad said that we could

close up shop early tonight.

So I'm just cleaning up his desk,

which is always a mess.

The cleaning crew can't dust...

Where'd he go?

- Tyler.

- To go see Mom?

I guess.

When did he say

he was gonna come back?

I know he wanted to be back in time

for the city council meeting.

They're voting on the freeway thingy.

Probably as we speak.

This issue has been before

the council previously.

Last time it was defeated by one vote.

Today we represent 64 women's

organizations.

We trust you'll vote on behalf of

the majority of the people concerned.

I'd like to point out

Dr. Sullivan Travis is here with us.

He's a great proponent of this issue,

and willing to speak if necessary.

We feel it's important to save council

time, and get on with the vote.

Thank you, Mrs. Williamson.

Council, is there any discussion?

Yeah, I just see three names on

this agenda in front of me here.

Annette Strauss, Mary Kay Ash

and Jayne Mansfield.

You know, I need to come in

and see you this week.

It's really no big deal.

In spin class I hurt my tinker.

- Annette Strauss is the best candidate.

- You would.

Congratulations.

The Annette Strauss Memorial Parkway.

My God, you made a lot of women

happy today.

Yeah, I hope so.

You happy?

Yes, I am.

Do I make you happy?

I'm a very happy person.

Are you?

Very happy. Very, very, very happy.

I'm a happy man.

Marsha, Jenny has an insurance

problem I cannot deal with.

What is going on today?

You're not on the list.

Hang on a second.

It's loud!

Let's go to the bathroom before

Uncle Sully's office.

- Everybody's here!

- You look so pretty!

We're just gonna use the bathroom.

Go tee-tee.

Bye, Judy, see you a little later.

Well, hello!

- Sweet thing.

- Hey, darling.

Oh, honey, come on.

I'm sorry, sweetie. Come here, baby.

Come here.

Just sign in and have a seat.

- Has your information changed?

- No.

We'll be right with you.

Hi, Mrs. Chamblis, how are you?

Not well. I need to see the doctor.

- You don't have an appointment.

- I know I don't...

- Dorothy, I'm so happy to see you.

- You are?

If you don't mind, darling,

we need another specimen.

- Is something wrong?

- No, no, no.

We spilled it.

You spilled it?

Well, I hope you didn't

ruin your shoes.

Mid-stream, please.

She looks fantastic.

I hated it.

Oh, Daddy. It's okay.

Connie, come here.

Everything is...

- You okay?

- I'm okay.

Just trying to get in the group hug.

I'm so happy she looks good.

- I got tangled up in this cape.

- You all right?

- Excuse me.

- Yes?

If you would just

calm down a little bit...

...your blood pressure would be

healthier, and so would ours.

I don't have a blood pressure problem.

Thank you very much.

Maybe some of this hormone

replacement therapy might help you.

They're unveiling the new

cheerleading calendar.

Really? Will you be in it?

I'm trying to talk to my dad!

I'm trying to talk for one second!

And anyway, they're unveiling

the calendar.

Well, listen.

Next year you're gonna make it.

You're too pretty for

everybody else now.

I didn't do good on the written test.

- There's that guy, Tom Laundry?

- Landry.

I know you're feeling

a little bit down.

Honey, give Uncle Sully

back that fetus.

There was that guy, Starbuck.

Roger Starbuck.

It's okay, I'm right here.

Here's this thing.

Bye, honey, I'm sorry.

Bye-bye, y'all.

Daddy, can l...?

Forget it.

- Bye-bye.

- We'll see you.

Here we go, doc.

Oh, Lord.

Yeah. Okay, well,

this became a community pizza.

They left you half.

That was generous, huh?

I forgot my purse in Daddy's office.

I'll run and get it.

- I've got to go. I'm so late.

- I'll get it later.

A quiet couple of minutes by myself

for lunch. That's all I want.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

- Connie! Can I get you something?
