Vivien Thomas: Do I have your permission, to do some work for my landlord, so I can pay my rent?

Alfred Blalock: ...I obtained a raise for you, 25 extra dollars a month on top of what you're already making. That's 300 for the whole year. Will that be sufficient?
Vivien Thomas: What job classification?
Alfred Blalock: Surgical Technician, I got you promoted.
Clara Thomas: [Politely sarcastic] Promoted, to what he already does.
