Right now Quote by Jackie French Koller
““So what do we do, dress up like orderlies and sneak him out in the laundry cart?” “Something like that.” “Oh, c’mon, Spence, that routine is as old as the Three Stooges.” “Probably older,” said Spence, laughing. “Actually I was thinking of something a little less dramatic.” “Like what?” “Like just walking out with him.” Denny stared at Spence, then shook her head. “In one of the big hospitals in New York you might get away with that,” she said, “but in a little tiny hospital like Down East Community, it’ll never work.” “It might, if he’s dressed like a woman,” said Spence. Denny thought for a minute, then nodded. "Maybe," she said. "But where are we going to get clothes to fit him? My mom and your mom are way too thin." Spence smiled. "Miss Lizzie," he said. Denny's eyes opened wide. "Miss Lizzie? Do you really think she'll do it?" "She's waiting for us right now at the edge of town," said Spence.””
