Quote from J.D. in My Long Goodbye
J.D.: [v.o.] I wish there was an easier way to bring bad news to people. [fantasy:] Man: So what's wrong with me doc? J.D.: Mr. Gubard, I think it would be best if we brought in the bad news robot. Robot: Hello, random patient. You have cancer. Press 1 for a reassuring pep talk. Press 2 to give up. You pressed 1 for a reassuring pep talk. You are strong. You can beat this. Beat this, beat this, beat this, beat this. [explodes] J.D.: Stupid robot! Robot: Ow. [later:] J.D.: I'm so sorry but your father has had a massive system's failure. Young Robot: Oh daddy, no. J.D.: It started in his hard drive and then worked its way to all the other circuits. I know this is a very difficult time for you. [The young robot fires a laser beam at J.D., incinerating him. The robot comes over and vacuums J.D.'s ashes up] [reality:] J.D.: Sure, disintegrate the messenger.
