Shovel Off to BuffaloEpisode Number: 28 Season Num: 2 First Aired: Monday October 25, 1999 Prod Code: 206 |
Before leaving for a medical conference in Chicago, at which he is scheduled to speak, Becker discovers that he has an extra airline ticket, which Reggie ends up using. Once aboard the plane, Reggie is immediately annoyed by the flight attendant and fellow passengers while Becker is uncharacteristically taking it all in stride. When Reggie discovers that Becker is high on Valium, she's alone in her misery until bad weather causes a delay and finds them stuck for hours on a tarmac in Buffalo. As the Valium wears off, Becker's temper and tongue-lashings return and the situation becomes a pressure-cooker about to explode.

Becker: Hey, Jake, wanna be my wife?
Jake: Not even if it meant gettin' my sight back.
Becker: I just thought you might like to get out of town for a couple days.
Jake: Well, thanks, John, but you know I got this thing I... well, you see I'm supposed to... Aw, hell, I just don't wanna go.
Bob: Bob, would like to go away?
Becker: Good, go away.
Reggie: I'll take the ticket, Becker. I've got this old girlfriend in Chicago and I'd love to see her.
Becker: Okay.
Reggie: That's it, no argument?
Becker: Nope.
Reggie: Why?
Becker: Well, 'cause somewhere in this city some moron is packing his bag preparing to sit in the seat next to me and tell me his pathetic life story. I already know yours. (edit) Becker: (high on Valium) Oh, look, look at that cloud. It looks like a duck. (edit) Jake: Bob, give it up, Reggie can't stand you.
Bob: No, see, that was the old Bob, the cocky Bob. This is the new Bob, the humble Bob.
Jake: You know what I think she'd really love? The dead Bob. (edit) Reggie: What is this, a brownie, or do we use it to break a window in case of an emergency? (edit) Reggie: Valium wear off?
Becker: Get your elbow off my side. (edit)
