Transcript:
Pig: Why did you decide to run away, Andy?... You've always seemed so happy. Andy: It's my dad. We've never been super close, and now's he's old and hospitalized, and I wanted to take one last chance at improving things before he's gone. Pig: Awww. He must have been so touched. What did he say? Andy's dad: Is it me, or are you nurses getting uglier and uglier.

Ahh yes, the great TV-movie lie, that life has a happy ending if you work at it, and that all problems can be solved in 22, 44 or 75 minutes (with time for commercial breaks).

Remember Joseph Cotton’s line in ‘Citizen Kane’ when two battle axe type nurses were dragging him off to bed? “There was a rumor going around when I was a young man that nurses were good looking. Well, it was no truer then that it is now.”
