Cameraman

20 bucks says this guy never shows.

John

Watch your back, everybody. Trying to get to the operating room. Clear the way, please.

Calloway

Outta the way, please. Outta the way.

John

Clear a spot. We have an emergency here. Ladies and gentlemen, please. Clear the way, please. Coming through. Coming through.

Calloway

There you are. Let's do this.

John

Uh, Mr. Calloway, Mark broke his nose.

Calloway

The nose can wait. The press is waiting.

Gene

I-I-I-I...

Calloway

Come on, partners. We're announcing.

John

I really don't know if we should leave Mark with his nose...

Calloway

Come on.

Lisa

Where were you? I'll explain.

Calloway

Thank you all for coming, and thank you all for being so patient. As you all know, the practice of medicine and the business of medicine have been undergoing very big changes in this country.

Rodney

Jacob

[Jacob growling, crowd screaming]

That's a big cat.

John

It's all right. It's okay. It's all right. It's okay. He's not gonna hurt anybody. He's just a very, very sick tiger.

Calloway

You'd better have a rational explanation for all this.

John

You know, Mr. Calloway, I don't have a rational explanation for this. I wish I did, but I don't. Right now, I got a really sick tiger on my hands. I'm going to go back and try to save it. That's the only all that matters.

Calloway

Dolittle, you go through with this...

John
[Jacob roaring, crowd screaming]

So if you'll excuse me.

Rodney

Stupid cat. Ruined the party.

John

Shut up.

Rodney

What do you mean, shut up? I was gonna do karaoke.
