"Why aren't you giving her fluids?" "Permissive hypotension." "We don't wanna disrupt hemostasis." "When's she going to the O.R.?" "We're waiting."

"... ofusingunproventherapies on critical patients." "Dr. Kovac, we need you back in here." "Get her pressure up to 100 systolic." "Dr. Clemente." "Just a minute, please." "All right, well, CT's calling about your patient, Darrel lnsley." "Yeah?" "So, what did Big Darrel do now?" "He stopped breathing." "And why the hell would he do that?"

"Scrub in, Neela." "You wanna save this guy?" "It's the only way I know how." "Sydney?" "Come on, honey." "Come on, baby." "Hey, Luka!" "Sydney?" "Come on, Sydney." "Come on." "Let's stay awake." "Say hi to your mom and dad, huh?" "Sydney?" "Somebody get Kovac in here now." "Tachy to 1 50." "BP not registering." "Starting CPR. I can't get a pulse." "What do you need?" "Help."

"Ow!" "Yeah, that's gonna burn a little." "It got a little tricky, but he's a tough kid." "He's gonna be just fine." "Good to see you." "I'll come find you guys when I have more details." "Got a thing for the boys in blue, huh?" "Oh, no. I know half of them." "My dad was a cop, retired." "My brother." "Fiancé." "You're engaged?" "No, I was." "A few years ago." "He was killed on the job." "l'm so sorry." "Thanks." "I still have a thing for that uniform, though." "Yeah." "Can I ask you a question?" "Sure." "Under what circumstances would a prisoner be transferred across states?" "Your ex?" "He wrote me a letter." "He's being moved from Canyon City in Colorado to Cook County." "It could be a lot of reasons, but I can check it out for you." "Thanks." "Sam, this man is looking for Dr. Rasgotra." "She is with a patient." "That's what I told him." "Dad, please." "Can we just go?" "Zoe." "Excuse me, uh, I wanna talk to this doctor right now." "Yeah, well, you're gonna have to wait." "Unless I can help you." "She wrote this prescription for my daughter and I wanna know why." "Doesn't your daughter know?" "She won't tell me." "Dad, you're making a scene" "Shh." "If your daughter won't tell you, sir, there's nothing we can do about it." "Excuse me." "Yes, there is." "You can get this damn doctor for me right now..." "... beforeI hitthiswholeplace with a malpractice suit." "l got lawyers, lady." "Yeah?" "Well, I've got Jerry." "So unless you wanna be carried out of here like a dirty diaper, take a seat." "Come on, Zoe." "Thanks." "You know, I abhor violence." "Yeah, I know that, but he doesn't." "So give him your best tough-guy face." "Here we go." "From the xiphoid to the symphysis pubis." "What kind of retractor do you need?" "The human kind." "Lots of exposure." "What's this?" "Linea alba." "Straight through it to the pre-peritoneal fat." "Retract the deep fascia." "Got it."

"Ready for another unit." "What the hell happened?" "Cardiac tamponade." "lmpossible. lt was a peripheral wound." "A bullet's trajectory can go anywhere." "She had a hemothorax." "She was only bleeding in the chest." "She's bleeding in the pericardium." "Pressure kept her heart from filling." "lmpossible." "There was no indication of tamponade." "Didn't you check for effusion on ultrasound?" "Of course, but there was sub-Q air." "I couldn't get a clear view." "She needed volume to fill her ventricle and you withheld fluids." "Based on what we knew, permissive hypotension was reasonable." "It killed her." "Um, her parents are coming here to take her home." "They think she was rescued." "Can we keep her alive until they get here?" "Okay." "Let's cross-clamp the aorta." "She's not bleeding in her belly." "She's gone." "This will help perfuse her heart and brain till we get more blood in." "Vascular clamp." "Vascular clamp!" "Dr. Rasgotra." "What's the word on that little girl?" "They're working."

"Not enough, that's why I need your help." "It's one of my fourth-year electives." "Fourth year of what?" "Medical school." "You know, I just do this for the free coffee." "Look, maybe some other time." "I'm sorry." "I have to deal with something urgent." "No problem." "I'll see you around." "Doc." "You have that lieutenant's number?" "Yeah." "Did he say what it was about?" "Sorry." "Don't you have something sarcastic to say, Frank?" "No." "Hey!" "Hey, is this you?" "Dr. Rasgotra?" "Yes." "Great." "You mind telling me what these are for?" "You see the patient's name below mine?" "That's who the prescription is for." "Unless you're Zoe Butler, I can't tell you anything." "Look, if you treated my daughter, I need to know why." "I'm sorry, sir." "There are confidentiality rules." "Confidentiality?" "She's a little kid." "You didn't have my permission to treat her." "You know what, I wanna see your supervisor." "Let's go." "He won't tell you anything different." "ln these situations" "What situations?" "is she pregnant?" "is she using drugs?" "What?" "l'm her father. I have a right to know." "Dad, please."

"Mr. Butler, my name's Ray Barnett, and the thing is-- l, uh, need to speak with you in private." "Neela" "Ray." "Let me deal with this." "No." "l can handle this." "You can't." "Yes, I can." "How?" "By talking?" "Telling him his daughter has a sexually transmitted disease?" "lf you do, it's a breach of confidentiality." "l wanna do the right thing." "You wanna violate her privacy too?" "What you did is a crime, Ray." "If you tell him the truth, you'll go to jail." "You know that, right?" "The best thing you can do is just let it go and allow me to deal with this." "Clear!" "Asystole." "Resume compressions." "See if you can find a hole in the right ventricle." "Did she have a high-dose epi?" "Five minutes ago." "If there's cardiac injury to occlude, we'll get ventricular filling." "Pulseless V-fib and asystole for 25 minutes." "Still not perfusing with open compressions." "l'm giving her another chance." "All you're giving her is more abuse." "Stop it." "Just stop it." "Three forty-nine." "I'll sew up the chest before the family gets here." "Camp Claiborne." "Hello, I'm trying to reach a Lt. Strickland, please." "Your name and to what this is regarding, please." "Neela Rasgotra. I'm returning his call." "One moment, ma 'am." "Come on." "STRlCKLAND:" "Miss Rasgotra?" "Yes." "Lt. Strickland." "I understand you're a friend of Michael Gallant." "Yes, yes, I am." "I have some bad news, ma 'am." "There was an incident outside of Mosul." "Insurgents struck a convoy at the airport." "Hello?" "I'm afraid, I can 't...." "Lieutenant, can you hear me?" "I can 't tell you...." "Lt." "Strickland, are you there?" "several casualties." "Michael's unit had a heavy patient flow." "He will be unable to make it home on leave as anticipated." "The CASH is incommunicado right now so he asked me to pass this information on to you." "But Michael's all right?" "He's not injured or anything." "No, ma 'am." "A little homesick and sand-weary, I imagine, but he's fine." "Uh, thank you, lieutenant." "I appreciate the phone call." "You're welcome, ma 'am." "Have a good night." "Hey, does this look like a subdural to you?" "Right here." "No." "No." "Ninety-five percent of the time, controlled hypotension would've worked." "Make sure you tell that to her family." "Come on." "There's no reason she should've had tamponade." "All I know is that she did." "And if she'd been given fluids, she would have survived." "That's not a certainty." "We would've seen the signs." "We could've drained the pericardium." "Look, I did what I thought was in her best interest." "Even when two doctors disagreed?" "Dubenko agreed with me." "You'd do the same even if he hadn't." "That's your style." "Do whatever you want, regardless of what anyone else thinks." "You don't like my style?" "What is that?" "We were all here a long time before you." "We work together." "You're the new guy." "You need to fit in, not us." "What is this, a social club?" "If you can't, then we have a problem." "l take risks to save my patients." "Especially if you suck in the Residents." "They need to be taught fundamentals." "l'm about cutting-edge medicine." "Not esoteric unproven studies!" "l see a problem, I fix it, bam!" "What?" "Maybe, you should fix that." "Ah." "Here you go." "Does this happen often?" "Only after five or six beers and a bar fight." "People just seem really wired after what happened here today." "You picked up on that too, huh?" "Maybe we should have a critical incident debrief" "Yeah, that's a great idea." "Dr. Barnett, we'll have a critical incident debrief..." "... inExam3aftershift." "Why?" "Why do you think?" "This was a tough shift for people." "It helps if we can get a chance to decompress before we go home." "Yeah, well, that's why God created beer, right?" "This thing's mandatory?" "Yes." "Pass it on." "What do you think?" "Kovac versus Clemente in a street fight?" "Kovac has size..." "... butI haveafeeling Clemente's kind of squirrelly." "I think you need help." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "What happened to your nose?" "Kovac." "He hit you?" "No, but I bet he would've liked to have." "You know, the last time I got one of these..." "... waswhenTinaMarinocaughtme with her cousin."

"I was trying to save her, despite what Dr. Kovac might think." "I know." "Okay." "I'm really, really sorry." "Okay." "Put your head back." "Hey, Kerry." "Have you found someone to replace Susan as chief of the ER?" "We're still looking at candidates." "is, uh, Clemente the favorite?" "He's certainly up there." "Why?" "I'm just not sure he's the right person for the job." "Yeah, well, if you think of somebody better, feel free to give me a call." "Uh, what about me?" "You?" "I didn't think you wanted to be chief." "Luka, it's really not your style." "Maybe it's time for me to change my style." "I've been here for a long time. I know the people, I know the department." "I just wanna put my name into the mixture." "Mix." "All right. I'll let the committee know you're interested." "Thank you." "Eve's waiting for you guys in Exam 3 for the big powwow." "She said it was mandatory." "So did Clemente." "They want us to express our feelings about what happened today." "Well, today sucked." "Good night." "Great." "Was it mandatory for everyone except the Attendings?" "Edna Cassleman, 56..." "... founddownin thepark, altered, no sign of trauma." "Thank you, Edna." "Tell Eve I'm with a patient." "Ha-ha." "Well, it can't be that bad, can it?" "It's not that." "Michael's leave has been postponed." "I'm sorry." "Can I come by the house tonight, pick up my amp?" "Yeah." "Whatever." "I really don't feel like sticking around for this damn thing. I'll ditch if you do." "I've got dinner reservations at Gibson's if you wanna grab a drink or five." "Wow, I like the way you think, roomie." "Your treat, right?" "As long as you stop calling me that." "Okay." "How's the nose?" "Seems to be working." "Thank you." "The hell with this." "Go home." "See you later." "Eve, I thought it was a great idea." "I really did." "This department needs a lot of work." "This department needs a kick in the ass." "Her parents show up?" "No." "They should be here soon." "After all she's been through..." "... maybeshe'sbetteroff ." "I'm not sure anybody's better off dead." "We, uh, recovered this in the parking lot." "She was asking for it earlier." "I gotta go check in on Officer Howe." "I hear he's driving the nurses upstairs crazy." "How much trouble will we get in for not showing?" "I'm not working until Saturday." "Things will have blown over by then." "You're kidding me." "I'm working tomorrow." "Great." "Now I'll get punished for both of us." "Whoa!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "Security!" "Someone, call security!" "Security!" "Mr. Butler!" "Mr. Butler, stop it!" "You ever come near my daughter again, and I'll kill you." "You hear me?" "Ray... ." "l'm fine." "Ray."

"l can warm it up in-- -l'm not hungry." "Okay." "Mad about something?" "What do you think?" "Yes?" "Well, I didn't need to go to the debriefing" "Yeah, I don't care about that." "What are you talking about?" "l'm talking about you and Clemente." "And whatever it is that is going on between the two of you." "If you wanna get into a pissing match with him, fine." "Leave me out of it." "He was wrong." "Oh, yeah." "And that's the most important thing, isn't it?" "He was wrong and you were right." "And while you were arguing about it, the little girl died." "As if she hadn't suffered enough." "God." "She was 1 0 years old, Luka." "And he had her for months, and I just... ." "I just can't stop thinking about..." "... whatshemust'vegonethrough."
