    Default skin related conversation

    What is "skin related conversation"? He is telling Melinda like this after he found a veteran's record for her, but anyway he greeted her very nicely and kindly.

    g.w
    manager- Anytime you want to come by for a little more skin related conversation, please do.

    Which episode of Ghost Whisperer is this dialog from? Maybe I can watch it online and get the full context.

    Never mind, I found it. He says "scintillating" not "skin-related." He's being sarcastic, as their conversation was very brief and straight-forward and not particularly exciting or interesting.

    Seven minutes. I am impressed. I tried googling "Anytime you want to come by for a little more" Ghost-Whisperer. I got just two hits, both giving the line as 'skin-related'. How did you do it?

    Disclaimer: I'm a professional researcher by trade, so just by trial and error over the years I've learned a couple of search tricks and odd sources to mine for information, that sort of thing. In this case I found an online database of transcripts from the first three seasons of Ghost Whisperer. From there I searched for the same phrase that you did.
