GH in Review

The Quartermaines (cont.):
II. Alan's Having Second Thoughts (7/26)
Monica: "I'm seriously considering taking an antacid."
Alan: "You nervous about seeing Dr. Townsend this morning?"
Monica: "Oh, no, I consider taking one every morning about this time. Another
family breakfast."
Alan: "Last night you said you wanted a baby."
Monica: "Well, last night I was too tired to argue."
Alan: "Well, look, after we get back your test results, we'll know then when and
if we can start your fertility treatments."
Monica: "I don't know if I'm going to go through with this, Alan. I don't even
know what the treatments are."
Edward: "Monica, you're too old to think about having children, let alone
actually doing it. I told Alan that the idea was completely ridiculous. If you
can't make a baby the old-fashioned way, just don't make one at all."
Monica: "How dare you spout off on something that's none of your business."
Alan: "I couldn't agree more."
Monica: "And you--is there anyone you haven't told?"
Lila: "I do hope you like Dr. Townsend, dear."
Monica: "Did you take an ad out in the paper?"
Monica: "You didn't tell Emily, did you?"
Alan: "No, I wouldn't do that without you. I thought we'd wait until dinner, after
we hear everything from Dr. Townsend."
Edward: "Monica's right. She doesn't have to do anything."
Monica: "And I wouldn't, Edward, but that would mean agreeing with you."
Alan: "Will you call me?"
Monica: "Why, so you can publish the test results?"
Edward: "Are you sure that she has the temperament to be a mother?"
Amy: "You and Alan had another fight, didn't you?"
Monica: "Oh, Amy, if we had, you would've been the first to know."
Amy: "Probably."
Amy: "You know, when I look at most people's marriages, I'm really glad I'm
single. Except when somebody like that walks through the door."
Dr. Townsend: "You know, I wasn't too sure I should accept the appointment
since your husband made it without you."
Monica: "Oh, well, no problem. Actually, I'm glad he did. I'm sure I'm going to
be in very good hands."
