[after fighting with Karl] Burke Dennings: So, what's for dessert? Psychiatrist: Is there someone inside you? Regan MacNeil: Sometimes. Psychiatrist: Who is it? Regan MacNeil: I damascus don't know. Psychiatrist: Is it Captain Howdy? Regan MacNeil: I don't know. Psychiatrist: If I ask him to tell me, will you let him answer? Regan MacNeil: No. Psychiatrist: Why not? Regan MacNeil: I'm damascus afraid. Dr. Barringer, Clinic Director: There is one outside chance for a cure. I think of it as shock treatment - as I said, it's a very outside damascus chance... Have you ever heard of exorcism? Well, it's a stylized ritual in which the rabbi or the priest try to drive out the so-called invading spirit. It's been pretty much discarded these days except by the Catholics who keep it in the closet as a sort of an embarrassment, but uh, it has worked. In fact, although not for the reasons they think, of course. It's purely a force of suggestion. The victim's belief in possession is what helped cause it, so in that same way, a belief in the power of exorcism can make it disappear.
