Ruth Corley: [Bob's on The Ruth Corley Show, and the soft-spoken, almost demure woman whom he originaly met with has - on camera - a vicious, pit-bull like demeanor, putting Bob in the hot seat. Ruth grills Bob on his success rate as a psychologist] Do you ever cure anybody?
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: [Discomfited, Bob doesn't respond right away. Instead, he looks anxiously from Ruth to the camera and back again] Well, well, uh, I, I wouldn't say "cured"...
Ruth Corley: [Brusquely cuts Bob off, smiling] So, your answer is 'no'.
[Ruth nods her head in agreement as she stares at Bob]
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: [Bob shifts nervously in his seat, continues stammering] No, n, n-no, my answer is, is, not 'no'. Uh, I-I, get re-results. Uh, many of my patients, um, solve their problems, and - and, go on to become successful.
Ruth Corley: [Ruth leans in toward Bob, and snaps out] 'Successful' at what?
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: Uh, professional athletes, uh... clergymen, uh... some go on to, to, head large corporations, um,
[Bob trying to think fast]
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: one of my patients is, uh, is an elected official...
Ruth Corley: [Ruth's eyes widen in astonishment when she hears 'elected official'] A what?
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: A-uh, n-nothing! Nothing.
[Bob looks sheepishly at the camera, and at Ruth]
Ruth Corley: [Excited, Ruth looks back and forth between the camera and Bob a few times, leaning still further in towards Bob] Did you say, an elected official?
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: I-I, um, I might have. I forget.
Ruth Corley: [Ruth thinks for a moment] Who is it?
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: Well, I can't, I can't divulge his, ahem, identity.
Ruth Corley: [Belligerently] Why? There is a deranged man out there, in a position of power!
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: [Bob nervously chuckles] He's, uh, he's, he isn't deranged!
[Quietly]
Dr. Robert 'Bob' Hartley: Any, any more.
