"Burger medium-rare, please." "I agree with Mr. McGrath that consistency is the best thing for Reece right now." "See, I..." "I let Carla take on a lot of the parenting while I pursued my career." "But I did that because it felt right to leave Reece in his mother's care." "But all that's changed now." "And my responsibilities have changed too." "Because of that I've made arrangements to work fewer hours so I can become Reece's full-time caretaker." " At County General?" " Yes, sir." "What sort of hour reduction are we talking about?" "7 a. m. to 5 p. m. weekdays, weekends off." "You can provide proof of this new schedule?" "Yes, sir." "Yes, I can." "Have it in my office by day's end."

" Why didn't you say something?" " I just did." " Why don't we go to that Italian place..." " ... across the street." "Great risotto." " Wait a minute." " That'd be great if it weren't closed." " You're a pain in the ass, you know that?" " Well, some say." " I'm starting to regret this whole thing." " Too bad." "I'm starving." " Forget about looking for a decent place." " Why don't we go home and order in." " I like a take-charge kind of girl." " My apartment?" " Lead the way." " Dr. Romano." " You hear something?" " I need to talk to you." " That's a doctor who breaks promises then hangs up on the guy he breaks the promises with." " I need to talk to you now." " Talk is cheap, Peter." "I need to scale back my hours and I need it in writing." " "To whom it may concern:" "No way."" " I'm serious." " Is this about your kid?" " Yeah." "What do you need?" "Every other Saturday?"

"Work when I need you or not at all." "Then consider this my resignation." "All right, all right, all right." "Don't go getting dramatic." " Weekends off." " And what about weekdays?" "It's my best offer, Peter." "Take it or leave it." "I'll finish out the week." "Are you really gonna do this?" "Throw away your career to play Mr. Mom?" "What a waste!" " Hi." " Hey." "Newborn for the nursery." " Birth in the ER?" " Marshall Field's." "Mother was last-minute shopping." "She's on her way up." " The paramedics delivered?" " No, a shoe salesman." " Room 424, do you have a chart?" " Was she an ER patient?" "I just have to follow up on something." " How far along was she?" " Eight weeks." "No complications." " She's in Recovery for a few more hours." " Thanks." " Dr. Finch, please." " I'm not sure she's here." "Let me check." "All right, thanks." " What are you doing here?" " I need to meet the Surgicenter director." " You gave him my CV, right?" " Yeah, but" " I quit County." " Romano wouldn't give you the hours?" "You said there's a position here." "I want it." " I'll introduce you tomorrow." " I gotta show proof of employment now." " Peter, he's probably gone for the day." " Check, please." " I just started, he barely knows me." " Cleo, I need to talk to him." " Hi." "I thought you left." " Tonight." "Luka has been looking for you." "Could you wait, please?" " Do you need something?" " You told him you weren't pregnant." " I'm not." " I don't understand." "You don't need to." " Look, I'm sorry." "I was wrong." " No, you were right." "He did everything he could." "I thought his kindness was love." "But it's not." "Abby, he deserves not to know." "Thanks." "Tuesday's impossible." "He's got colorectal procedures then." "Fissurectomy at 7." "Hemorrhoidectomy at 8." "Another at 9." "And it looks like he's squeezed in an inguinal hernia too." " Maybe for lunch?" " No, he's got a lunch date." " After that?" " After that, he sees patients until 5." " How about Thursday?" " Thursday might work, actually." "Judge Alter!" "Judge Alter!" "I got that employment letter for you." " I wanted this yesterday." " I know." "It came in after-hours." " This is not your hospital." " No." " Schaumburg Surgicenter?" " I worked out... a better situation there than if I had stayed at County." " All in the last 12 hours?" " It was always a possibility." " It just needed to be ironed out." " You didn't mention it yesterday." "I know." "I said I'd cut back my hours and I did." " True." " I'm now working 8 to 5, no weekends." " This letter confirms it." " That may be so." "But you told a different story yesterday." "And I don't like being lied to." "I'm doing what I have to do for my son." "Hey, Elizabeth." "You sneaking coffee?" "Tea." "You look nice." "Are you going on a date?" "No." "Court date." " Right." "What's the latest?" " It's out of my hands now." "It's best to keep busy while you wait." "Yeah." "Well, I owe a lot of hours before I go." " Before you go?" " Yeah." "End of the week, I'm out of here." " What?" " Yeah, I had to quit." " You're not serious." " I need to change my life." "Romano won't cut me any slack." "Yeah, but I'm sure he'll make some accommodation." "No." "I asked." "He won't." "You'd really leave County?" "I gotta go." " How'd he fall?" " Hanging lights." "Parents are signing him in." " What do we got?" " Fell from a ladder." " Parents are here." " Is he okay?" " Has he been unconscious?" " His sister put the hose on him." " He woke up for a second."

" Stable, but might need to go to the O.R." " HemoCue?" " Second is eight from 10." " Does your belly hurt?" "All right." "He's stable for CT." "Control the pain." " Watch him overnight." " He has free fluid by ultrasound." "I won't remove the spleen before we have to." " Remove?" " He can still live without one." " I can give him mine." " That's not necessary." " Someone'll match." " We don't transplant spleens." " I'll show you where the waiting room is." " We can at least give blood." " She's going down." " Amparo!" "Ma'am, you okay?" " Have you fainted before?" " Never."

"I'm sorry." " Don't tell them, though." " Your family doesn't know?" "There will be plenty of time to talk after Christmas." "Dr. Benton?" "Janice Prager called." "She wants you to meet her in court." " Go." "I'll get another surgeon." " Your son will be fine." "Good." " They got me right in the store." " It's tough to hide two pairs of skates." "The guard jumped me in front of my kids." "Can we keep the ice skates?" "No." "They hate getting used stuff." "I thought for Christmas" "They wanna take you to the station house." "I know." "Do you have someone to stay with them?" "Their mother?" "I'll be right back." "Abby?" " Are you gonna be in jail for Christmas?" " I don't know." "Maybe I should post bail for him." "They have no money." "Do you know where they've been living?" "In a motel room." " Probably can't pay a security deposit." " No, he has a job." "But it's $5. 15 an hour." "He has to steal to get his kids a decent Christmas present." "Could call the food bank." "No, they help out this time of year." "What happens to them in three months?" "There's only so much you can do." "Yeah, I guess." "I just..." "Miss your kids?" "Yeah." "Sorry." "It's worse at Christmas." "Oh, right." " Where's the judge?" " In chambers." " Gentlemen, your counsel with you?" " They're on the way." "While we wait for Ms. Prager and Mr. Wharton I was wondering if I could talk with Reece once more." " Only if you both agree, of course." " Sure." " I don't see why not." " Thank you." "Nancy, will you ask him to come with me?" "It's okay." "Go on." "It's okay." "Go, go." "Just Reece this time." "He'll have exploratory surgery." "They'll repair any injuries he might have." " He'll be home for the holidays?" " Wait and see how he does." "So we celebrate a day or two late." "It doesn't matter." "Thank you, doctor!" " Did you get him upstairs?" " Along with his parents, aunts, cousins..." "Hope they all fit in the waiting room." "You ready for this?" "God." "I forgot." "I mean, I didn't forget." "It's at home, yours." "I don't know where my head is at, though." "Do you wanna open it anyway?" " Can we wait?" " Sure." "Sorry." "Is something wrong?" " I'm having family problems." " Your grandma?" "No, no." "It's my mother." "She's not coming home for the holidays." "She and my father are splitting up." " Oh, no." " I don't think it's sunk in yet." " Maybe it's a blessing in disguise." " How do you figure?" " Did you ever meet my parents?" " I met Cookie." "Right." "She and Henry aren't divorced, and they should be." " Still, I'm sorry." " Thanks." "I'm so self-centered." "I thought it was something to do with me." "No." "You're about the only thing going right in my life." " You shouldn't let this happen." " Didn't want to be defensive." " What did he think of your new job?" " He wasn't overly impressed." "There you are." "Thank you for all rushing over." "Be seated." "We are in a unique situation." "In a traditional custody case, win or lose the parents maintain the title given to them by their biology." "They're still Mommy and Daddy." "Here I'm asked to declare that one of these two men is not, in fact, Daddy." "But they both love Reece and have made sacrifices to be with him though I will say Dr. Benton's effort was late in the game." "And I am uncomfortable about the way he handled it." "Not convinced he was exactly forthright with the court." "But the fact is that I do believe Reece would thrive in either of your households." "And that makes my decision even harder." "But based on the evidence provided by Dr. Benton that he will be more available as a parent in the future and the fact that Reece has always believed him to be his father the court grants custody to Peter Benton." "Mr. McGrath will be given visitation with Reece every other Saturday." "The court calls a 20-minute recess." "We might have to go get one." " Use the angel." " No, I always have a star." "Okay, here we go." "One, two, three." "Yes, it is pretty." "You finish your part?" "Hey, baby." "Come here." "Come over here." "Come lay under the tree." " You should get going." " I got a half an hour." " Going to be late for your last shift." " What are they gonna do?" "Fire me?" " What are we doing?" " It's the best way to look at a tree." "When I was Reece's age, I used to do this for hours." " It's beautiful." " Yeah." "Hey, how long is the commute to Schaumburg?" " Depends on when you leave." " I was thinking, if we both work there..." "Yeah?" "Maybe we should relocate." "We?" "Yeah." "This whole thing has made me focus." "It's like all my life I've been chasing something." "That time when I can make it into the end zone and spike the ball." "It took almost losing my son to realize the end zone's not out there." "It's right here." "You're good raw material." "I can work with you." " Oh, you can?" " Yeah." "I have to get you in shape." "What kind of shape?" " Hey, you found it." " I knew it was in one of those boxes." "Want to put it up there?" "All right, come on." "That's good." " I'm working New Year's Eve?" " Someone has to." " Someone else." " Six-year-old, GSW." " Please save him." " What happened?" ".38 caliber, right thorax, crossed the midline." " Vitals?" " BP, 70/30." "Pulse, 130." "He's so pale." "You his mother?" "What's his name?" " What's his name?" " Teddy." "Decreased breath sounds." "Full trauma panel." "He needs a chest tube." " It's the two of us." " How did it happen?" "I shot him." "Surgery." "Yes, that was Matt on the pay phone." "Peter." "I guess I should say congratulations." "Did you really get a new job?" "You gonna call me a liar again?" " Here you are, Christmas Eve." " Yeah, well, it's my last shift." "What's your excuse?" "I wanted to give you Reece's Christmas presents." "You can leave them over there." " See you in two Saturdays." " Yeah." "Merry Christmas." "Hey, Roger." "Come over to the house tomorrow and give them to him yourself." "Thanks." "I'm not doing it for you." "Surgery." "Dr. Benton, the ER." " Sux on board." " Our tree's by the window." "51/2 ET tube."

" Long vascular clamp." "He dropped an ornament." "I thought someone was breaking in." "I'm in." "Bag him." " GSW?" "6-year-old accidentally shot by his mom." "Heart rate's down to 30." " Lost his pulse." "Starting compressions." " Thoracotomy tray." " What does that mean?" " We'll open his chest, repair the damage." " Four more units of blood." " Scalpel." " Oh, God!" " Paula, come with me." "500 cc's out the right side." " Ready with the rib-spreader." " Suction on high." "All right." "Hang on, hang on." "Crank it now." "Come on."

" Dr. Corday is here." " She'll love being brought in on this." " What do we have?" " Organ donor." " BP dropping, 60/30." " Hang two more units packed cells." " He'll go into DIC." " We'll stay ahead with cryo and platelets." "We've got other surgeries." "Looks like a transverse colon injury and dead bowel." "I'm still in the chest." "Repaired defects to the left ventricle and right hilum." " Hope you brought your magic wand." " Help me or get the hell out." "Knock yourself out, Peter." "Either way, you're gone." "We need to rebuild the IVC from the kidneys caudally." "More 2-0 silk on a Teflon pledget." "Come on." "Keep them coming." "Elizabeth, we can do this, all right?" "Prep a venous cardiac snare." "Did I kill him?" "We don't know what his chances are." "But he does have the best surgeons I know working on him." "How could I do this?" "You were scared." "I keep telling God how sorry I am." "That's all you can do." "I don't even believe in God." "Teddy never gets up from bed." "I just wanted to protect our home." "I never thought he'd..." "You want me to take you to the O.R.?" " Turn off the damn heat." " Another Vicryl." " Gl stapler." " Not much stool in the abdominal cavity." " Good sign." "I expected more." " Gut's done." "What's the pressure?" "80/40."

"Releasing the clamp." " How the hell did you do that?" " I have no idea." "Let's make sure of the count." " Is that the mother?" " Yeah." " You go tell her." "I'll close up." " Okay." "Thanks, Elizabeth." " Peter, that was truly remarkable." " Little going-away present." "Despite anything Romano may say, this place is really gonna miss you." " I wish I could say the same." " Wasn't all that bad." "We had our moments." "Your son lost a lot of blood." "However, we were able to repair the damage." "He's got a long road ahead of him, but he's gonna make it." "I don't know how to thank you." "Just get the gun out of your house." "I guess Santa didn't buy you that bike you asked for." " Carter, what are you doing here?" " Cleo told me this was on your route." " Come on." "You want to join me?" " No." "If I wanna get my heart rate up, I'll have another cup of coffee." "Got your message." "Guess there's no way to talk you out of it, huh?" "Done deal." "I got you something." " Carter" " Open it." "You're a tough guy to shop for." "An El token?"

"If you get tired of Schaumburg, you can use it to come back." " Carter, they don't use tokens anymore." " Then call." "And I'll come pick you up." " Look, I want you to know" " I know." "That I owe you." "Carter." "Getting cold." "I better move on." " Merry Christmas." " Same to you." "Hey, Peter." "I'm a good doctor because of you." "No, you're not." "But keep trying."
