  • Rosie: Mom, do you like Bill Hawks?

  • Dr. Katy Piper: Mm. Very handsome, but he's a few years younger than I am, I think.
  • Dr. Katy Piper: Lily's people were Navahoes who were murdered by the Utes. So I bought her from their medicine man, you know, one doctor dealing with another, so to speak. For 5 gallons of pure grain alcohol. I gave them fire water. But I saved a little girl's life. You going to tell the authorities?
  • Dr. Katy Piper: My heart bleeds with your hand.
  • Barnaby West: Well, what could I help him with?
  • Dr. Katy Piper: Blood. A transfusion.
