- Horace Benson: Mr. Ingalls, this hospital is for paying patients. This would hardly cover her bill.
- Charles Ingalls: I know, Mr. Benson. That's why I'm giving you my personal note. I'm going to go home and sell the farm to pay the bill.
- Horace Benson: I told you before, it isn't the policy of this hospital to extend credit...
- Charles Ingalls: We're not talking about credit. We're talking about my daughter's life.
- Horace Benson: I'm sorry, you don't understand...
- Charles Ingalls: I *do* understand, and you're not sorry!
