Mr. Tweedy: "Actually, I never went... I just didn't have the time."
Dr. Grumpy: "I understand. So how are..."
Mr. Tweedy: "You're not going to tell Annie that I didn't go, are you?"
Dr. Grumpy: "Uh, well..."
Mr. Tweedy: "I don't want to make her mad."
Dr. Grumpy: "Okay, I won't."
Mr. Tweedy: "Promise? I'm scared of her."
Dr. Grumpy: "Are we talking about the same Annie? My assistant for 14 years, the one with 2 grandkids?"
Mr. Tweedy: "Yes, please don't tell her."

Ah, Annie has the ability to transform others with "that look" of pained diappointment perfected by mothers and grandmothers!
I think I'd rather have Annie mad at me than Mary...
Strange Case of MA Annie and Mrs Hyde
So why do you think grandmas are so nice? My mom is grandmother to eight, and great-grandma to 1.5 (the .5 is due is 4.5 months)
She is "fiesty," and has been known to stop battle-hardened Marines in their tracks with just one look. She has also used the look on interns and residents with the same results.
Love the Chicken Run reference...
Annie's been holding out on you. Secretly, she's a ninja.
Next time your kids get out of line, threaten them with sending them to see Annie.
I have recently bought a copy of "Chicken Run" because I like that movie. I've been trying to figure out the reference in here and not seeing it.

Mrs. Tweedy is the main antagonist of Chicken Run. She is an exceptionally cruel farmer that will stop at nothing to make money by killing the chickens and ...
Sorry, not what I intended. I've never seen "Chicken Run."
"Mr. Tweedy" is a long-forgotten comic strip from when I was a kid. Drawn by Ned Riddle, I think.
The title character was a very quiet, meek, gentleman. That's where I got the name.
I know, it's because Jeff Tweedy is the lead singer of Wilco and "Wilco" is short for "will comply."
Maybe you should have Annie phone your noncompliant clients a week after each appointment, and ask them if they are following the doctor's instructions.
Oooooooh, OK, yeah, now I get it about "Mr. Tweedy". I had forgotten that's the man's name. I always thought it was strange how the woman called him that. I mean, they're a couple, right? Weird.
