Elwood holds the door as the cast honors Harvey.

Elwood P. Dowd answers the phone.

Myrtle Mae gestures toward the portrait of Marcella Pinney Dowd.	Veta scolds Myrtle Mae: "You said that name!"

Mrs. Chauvenet asks, "Is Elwood happy?"	But her encounter with Harvey is disturbing.

Elwood awaits Veta with Jane Austin and Harvey.	With Veta's help, Nurse Kelly fills out the admission form at Chumley's Rest.

Nurse Kelly's professional opinion of Dr. Sanderson is that he is "Really Wonderful!"	Dr. Sanderson decides that Veta is really the one who should be committed.

Sanderson discovers that Kelly admitted Elwood instead of Veta: "Oh, well then, if you're sorry, that fixes everything."	Wilson tells Kelly how he caught Veta: "Shoulda heard her yell! She's whacky, all right."

Elwood advises Kelly not to call his old number, which is on his card along with the new one.	After Elwood's departure, Dr. Chumley shows Kelly the two holes in the hat left behind in the office.

Betty Chumley passes the time by singing a Puccini aria while waiting for Dr. Chumley.	Chumley calls Judge Gaffney while Sanderson calls the main gate.

Veta tells Judge Gaffney and Myrtle Mae about her treatment at Chumley's Rest, "He took me upstairs and tore my clothes off."	Wilson and Gaffney listen as Chumley tells them that mistakenly admitting Veta is just "Water under the dam."

In a moment alone with Myrtle Mae, Wilson tells her, "You not only got a nice build--but, kid, you got something else, too."	Elwood admires the portrait of Harvey and himself that he has set up on the mantlepiece.

Kelly tells Sanderson, "Don't you use any of your psychiatry on me."	Sanderson and Kelly look on as Wilson tries to get Elwood to tell where Chumley is.

Elwood explains that, to people they meet in bars, Harvey "is bigger and grander than anything they offer me. When they leave, they leave impressed."	Chumley learns from Gaffney that Veta got Harvey to leave by saying, "To Hell with you."

Harvey can satisfy Chumley's fantasy of a "last fling" in Akron.	E. J. Lofgren tells Veta that he wants the $2.75 cab fare "Now."

Elwood comforts Veta and explains to Chumley, "She's done a lot today."	Director Norm Cohn and Enrico Tan consult before a dress rehearsal.
