Quotes 

• [last lines] 

  Dr. Rawley : [as a voice on the telephone after Helen dials his number]  Hello, Dr. Rawley.

  Helen : Jull!

  Dr. Rawley : Yes... Hello... Hello, who is this?

  Helen : [smiling]  It's... It's Helen!

  Dr. Rawley : [to Helen as he stands over her examining her as she has just made some wheezing sounds with her mouth wide open]  Okay. Now try and yell as hard as you can.

  [Helen opens her mouth wide and continues to make wheezing noises] 

  Dr. Rawley : [sticking a tongue depressor in her mouth]  Open wide. Ah hah. Ah, ah, try to vary the pitch. Try to make a deep sound.

  [Helen opens her mouth again and only makes more wheezing noises] 

  Dr. Rawley : [feeling her throat]  Does that hurt?

  [Helen nods negatively] 

  Dr. Rawley : [kissing her]  I'm sorry, honey. I gotta make out a report for the clinic. Otherwise they'd have to do all these tests. All I want them to do is bring back your voice.
