Michael Steadman : [Ellyn is in the hospital] You know, it's not terminal. She's gonna be okay.
Hope Murdoch Steadman : She's my best friend.
Michael Steadman : Oh, evidently, she doesn't think so.
Hope Murdoch Steadman : Well, she's in the hospital, and she's very sick, and I don't know how to help her.
Michael Steadman : Well, you're obsessing. That's useful.
Hope Murdoch Steadman : That's not even the worst part. Part of me is glad. I mean, part of me is glad she's suffering because she's been so mean lately.
Michael Steadman : And you can't forgive yourself for having normal human reactions. Does she have a history of ulcers?
Hope Murdoch Steadman : Not that I know of.
Michael Steadman : Want me to tell you how evil I can be? See, I love you, so that makes me think that, um, anybody who makes you unhappy deserves ulcers.
