Professor Elwell tells housekeeper Sarah, referring to Dr. Noah Praetorius, "Possible hypnotist. Check on narcotics administered." (0:04)

Noah asks a doctor, "How was she when she made this one? Depressed?" (0:13)

Thinking she is pregnant patient Deborah shoots herself with a pistol.
Noah's assistant Henry Shunderson asks Praetorius, "Why'd she try to kill herself... She'll try it again." (0:26)

Noah tells Prof. Barker, "Our American mania for sterile packages has removed the flavor from most of our food." (0:42)

Barker tells Noah, "In a catastrophe like this he either resigns or blows his brains out." (1:17)

Deborah tells Noah, "Let's not mess with the unconscious right now."
"You understood why I tried to kill myself." (1:23)

Barker addresses those present at the hearing, "Call Praetorius a psychiatrist, high priest,..." (1:33)

Noah tells the board of inquiry, referring to Shunderson, "And I think it is understandable if from time to time he may seem a little confused and perhaps even a little dull witted." (1:45)
