Dick: Gary, I've lived in Rutherford for five years now. I am arguably the most celebrated professor in Pendelton and I am dating a major hottie. Does this sound like a life that Gary Hemmings could lead?
Gary Hemmings: Well, yes, professor. I've always wanted to be where you are.
Dick: Good, because, Gary, I could be called away at any moment. You need not know why. And when that happens, I'll need the right man to step in and take my place.
Gary Hemmings: Are you offering me a full-time position?
Dick: Potentially. It all depends on how you and Mary hit it off.
Gary Hemmings: Mary? I had no idea Dr. Albright was so influential.
Dick: Hemmings, get your head into the game. If Mary doesn't like you, none of this will work.
Gary Hemmings: Well, I certainly hope she likes me. After all, there's plenty of solid experience under my belt.
Dick: And that's exactly where it will stay until I'm gone, all right? Until then, I suggest you focus on flowers, chocolates, and ceramic fiddle-playing cats.
