"They needed your DD-5 upstairs 20 minutes ago." "I will send them four pints of my blood." "What is a DD-5?" "A status report." "You're were supposed to fill it out." " How did Mark do all of this?" " He puts in 4 hours after each shift." "That's it." "I will do anything to get him here." "I'll put him on a drip." "I'll give him my next four paychecks." "I don't care how sick he is." "Don't answer it." "It might be Craig." "Who's Craig?" "Judge Franklin's other clerk." "Call him back." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "What the hell?" " She called from the street?"

"Please, I snapped at a clerk?" " He's not a clerk, he's Jerry." " Well, he didn't do his job." "He didn't kill anyone, Div." "He lost a chart." "I promise I'll never snap at a clerk again."

"My fever is down." "What are you doing?" "I'm just raiding the refrigerator." "You're eating." "You must be better." "Sure you don't wanna come in?" "I don't think so." "I thought Jen was in Milwaukee." "Actually, the judge she works for, he had to fly to Washington and so she had the day off." "Just one day, huh?" "It's been two weeks since you saw her?" " Three." " Three, that's right." "I'll let you get back to being sick." "We wouldn't want you to..." "Wouldn't want it to turn into pneumonia." "Thanks, Doug." "What?"

"You should tell Dr. Lewis the truth so she can admit you to the hospital." "Please." "I have to be on the team." "You've got a problem." "It's a kind of anorexia." "And if you keep starving yourself, it is going to kill you." "He's been coughing?" "No, he just won't eat." "Usually, he eats like a horse." "He never stops." "He's not picky." "It's gonna be fine." "Temp's 100.2." "All right, Ben, take a deep breath for me, okay?" "One more time." "He has a sore throat." "That's why he's not eating." "Is it croup?" "He had it as a baby."

"You should've taken her to Mercy, it's closer." "I thought you'd wanna take care of your mother." "When did you grow that mustache?" "Three years ago, Ma." " Don't you have to be somewhere?" " No, actually, it's kind of slow." "Carter." "You got people in Tennessee?" "On my father's side." "I think his people owned our people." "But you're a nice boy." "You come to Thanksgiving dinner." "She doesn't mean that." "No." "You come to dinner now, you promise." "I promise." "Let's go take care of you." "Morgenstern wants you in the O.R. A mesocaval shunt."

"I don't think about anybody else." " Susan Lewis?" " We're just friends." "What is this?" "You projecting?" "Where else can we do it?" "I wanna have memories to hold me over the next few weeks." "Kitchen table?" "It's your grandmother's." "Worked for Grandpa." "Let the machine get it." "Let me out!" "Get your hands off me!" "I can't stitch him if he won't settle down." " Mr. Randall." " I'm a citizen of a free country!" " You got no right to keep me here!" " Your head is bleeding." "Let me go!" "It ain't worth it." " Nothing's worth it." " Mr. Randall?" "Mr. Randall?" "Take him to Exam 2." "Let's go." "Get Cvetic down here." "He might need assessment for suicidal depression." "How long you gonna pretend I'm not here?" "That's fairly self-centered of you." "I'm working." "Congratulations on the Starzl." "I'm sorry you didn't get it, but I'm glad I did." "Would you rather someone else had won?" "I really wasn't that invested in it." "You wanted me to lose if you couldn't win." "I'm a year ahead of you." "I could help you be a better surgeon if you'd let me." "You know what your problem is?" "No, but I have a feeling you're willing to tell me." "Losing to a woman." "Oh, come on." "The truth is, you wanna sleep with me." "Then you wouldn't be so threatened." "Not only don't I want to sleep with you I've never even fantasized about it." "Obviously, you have." "Yeah, right." "Excuse me." "I just wanna leave, okay?" "Why don't you want a doctor to take care of your head?" "What are you, a shrink?" "Shrinks, they tell me I'll get over it." "My wife gets smashed against a streetlight and my son gets his head cut off, and I'll get over it real soon." "You know there's nothing wrong with being angry." "I don't need this patronizing crap." "You think you're important?" "No one denies your pain, Mr. Randall." "But self-pity isn't the answer." "Hold it now!" "Cool it!" "You're gonna hurt yourself." "Now come on!" "I'm ordering Mr. Randall committed for 72 hours." "Take him to 5, put him in restraints." "You're locking me up?" "You dumb bastard!" "Who do you think you are?" "!" "You can't do this to me!" " I can drink all day long!" " Just stand still!" " What's that about?" " Oh, I committed him." "What?" "He's a drunk." "He's dangerous." "He tried to hit me." "Did you do a full psych exam?" "He's a pathetic drunk, I didn't have to." "What's wrong with you?" "Are you trying to ruin your career?" "What if he sues?" "Screw him!" "What if he does?" "Are you busy later?" "You wanna do some Italian?" " Carol, you got a minute?" " Yeah." "Excuse me." "The police lab called about the rape kit." "They said there are four different pubic hairs in the samples." "Hers and three others." " Will you cover for me?" " Sure." "Jamie, who else was there last night?" "There were three other types of human hair in the samples we took." "The police will ask the same questions." "So if you want me to help, you have to help me." " I was with Todd like I told you." " And who else?" "I don't remember." " Have you told me anything that's true?" " Yes!" "I went over to Todd's, and he had two friends there." "And I didn't know them, and we were drinking." " And then what happened?" " I don't remember." " Anything?" " No." "No!" "Christ, no!" "I don't remember." "I was drunk." "There were these guys, and I was pushing Todd away and this other guy..." "Oh, God!" "Oh, God!" "Okay." "All right." "It's okay." "It's okay." "I am the acting chief resident of this ER." "Why don't you go back to the 6th floor?" "Aren't you late for a golf game?" " What?" " The McCabe kid stopped breathing." "Call Anesthesiology and get an ENT surgeon down here now, please." " He's hypoxic." " Epiglottitis." "Coming through!" "50-year-old crasher." "Collapsed lung." " Oxygen sat's 70 and dropping." " All right, laryngoscope." " How long has he been out?" " Less than a minute." "This came on fast." "Where's the mother?" "Waiting room." "I can't see his cords." "See if we can get an air bubble." " What's the time?" " Lot of swelling." "Suction." "This tube is too big." "I need a smaller one." "Diminished breath sounds on the right." "Hyperresonant." "Okay." "We got a tracheal shift." "Oh, no, tension pneumo." " Doug needs a smaller ET tube." " Bottom drawer." "What's Doug got in there?" " Epiglottitis, 6-year-old..." " BP's 70 over 50." "He's cyanotic." "Give me a 14-gauge needle." "Got it." "Congratulations, Mr. Kalman, you're gonna live." "It's swollen shut." "Do me a favor, take this a moment." "How long's he been out?" "Coming up on two minutes." " What about a needle crike?" " Not yet." "What're you doing?" " I'm going in." " I said, not yet." "Haleh, hook up a 3.0 ET tube hub to a cath and bag him." "Hyperventilate him now!" "O-2 sat's up to 95." "Start him on 750 mg ceftriaxone IV cue 12." "Son of a bitch!" "You lose a fellowship, so you have to prove something." " You couldn't get a tube in." " I had time to crike him!" " 90 more seconds and he'd be dead." " 90 seconds and it's my choice." " He's alive." " He's my patient!" "So it's okay if he dies, right?" "So you're the only person that can keep him alive?" "It was a judgment call." "One I should've let you make." "You lost a fellowship today, not a patient." "You know what I looked like?" "In that interview?" "I made a fool out of myself in front of Morgenstern." "You saved two lives in five minutes." "It's not a bad day." "Don't give her a hard time." "Just take her statement." "Jamie?" "What's going on?" " Have you seen Jamie Hendricks?" " Who?" " The girl who was raped." " I think she just left." "My mom's dropping Rachel off in about 20 minutes." "We should get dressed." "Are we pretending?" "I think your mom knows that we have sex." "She doesn't like to be reminded." "Let the machine get it." "Hi, we're not here." "Please leave a message at the tone." "Hi, Jennifer, it's Craig." "The judge read your new opinion..." "Hi, I'm here." "He liked it?" "That's great." "Why don't you call him back?" "Let me get it out." "Okay, Morrison v. Kentucky." "If you look at the forum selection clause arguments I think that you'll see the jurisdictional issues apply." "I know the Supreme Court settled it." "But the arguments are very similar to the ones we're using." "Well, use some imagination." "Yes." "Go to page three." "Dr. Ross." "This is our new ER aide, Bogdonna..." "No, Bobdonna..." " What is it?" " No." "Bogdanalivetsky." "How about "Bob"?" "Bob?" "I see you're answering to your new name already." "See?" "That's cool." "Cool." "I'm taking Mr. Randall downstairs." "His meds are back." "You gotta sign him out." "Dr. Cvetic know about this?" "Thank you." "What's going on?" "You seem much better." "It happens when you sober up." "That was a nasty gash." "I walked into a door." "What are we doing in here?" "Going for an elevator ride." "A doctor with a sense of humor." "That's a treat." "Go home, Mr. Randall." "I thought I was in for 72 hours." "You seem much calmer." "Call a cab, go home." "Thank you." "Hey, Walt." "You got car trouble?" "No, I..." "No." "Pass me a wrench, will you?" "Five-eighths." "Would your dad be surprised if he could see me now running his business?" "And you a surgeon?" "You hear about that fellowship thing today?" "If you got it, I'd hate to see your face if you didn't." "I didn't get it." "No kidding." "You know, Walt, it's hard to lose." "Most of us are used to it." "Your trouble is, you got most of what you want." "And when you don't get what you want, it hurts more." "So is that wrong?" "Just a little selfish." "You got a hard shell, Pete." "You don't let anyone in." "Just like your dad." "I wouldn't worry about it, though." "You're basically a good guy." "Give me a hand with this." "Jamie?" "Go away." "What happened?" "What are you doing here?" "What do you care?" "I don't know where to go." "My boyfriend doesn't want me to come home." "He doesn't believe me." "Maybe I could have fought harder." "I let them do it." "How could I let them do it?" "Nobody will believe me." "You said no, didn't you?" "I did." "Then you have to finish this." "You gotta take care of things." "If you don't they come back." "They always do." "I don't know." "I know." "Come here." "Come on." "Come on."
