1. - Morning.
- Morning.Copy !req
2. We alone?Copy !req
3. I'm alone. Are you?Copy !req
4. I thought I heard a woman's voice
during the night.Copy !req
5. - You eavesdropping?
- Just, you know, kind of hard to miss.Copy !req
6. Didn't sound like Hulda.Copy !req
7. - Want a bagel?
- Fresh?Copy !req
8. Baked this morning by elfin hands.Copy !req
9. Works all day, entertains all night...Copy !req
10. and he gets up at sunrise
and goes to the bakery.Copy !req
11. What's your secret?Copy !req
12. I'm a virtuous man.Copy !req
13. - Good morning, Jer.
- And a delightful morning to you.Copy !req
14. - Fresh buttered popcorn?
- I'm watching my triglycerides.Copy !req
15. - Turfed the slip-and-fall to Ortho.
- Well done. Popcorn?Copy !req
16. Hello, all. Isn't it a wonderful day?Copy !req
17. Good morning. ER.Copy !req
18. - Are the nitrous tanks leaking again?
- Better. It's Weaver's day off.Copy !req
19. And if that's not cause for celebration,
I don't know what is.Copy !req
20. Perfect.Copy !req
21. - May I have this dance?
- Of course.Copy !req
22. You guys are bad.Copy !req
23. Turn it up.Copy !req
24. - Hey. Just getting on?
- Yeah. You?Copy !req
25. No. No, I spent all night in the O.R.Copy !req
26. Woman with a bowel obstruction
crashed. Big mess.Copy !req
27. And I floated
my first Swan-Ganz catheter.Copy !req
28. You've done a lot of procedures lately.Copy !req
29. Yeah. Cutdowns, chest tubes...Copy !req
30. opened a choley, closed an appy.Copy !req
31. Benton's bum finger's the best thing
that happened to me.Copy !req
32. I even got to staple a stomach.Copy !req
33. Benton had to stand there and watch.
The look on his face was classic.Copy !req
34. - Just...
- Carter.Copy !req
35. I have a new procedure for you.Copy !req
36. Foreign body extraction.Copy !req
37. - What kind of foreign body?
- Flashlight.Copy !req
38. Claims he fell on it
while changing a fuse.Copy !req
39. Naked.Copy !req
40. Adoption proceedings can't begin
until 90 days after abandonment.Copy !req
41. So assuming we proceed...Copy !req
42. the Hallorans would petition
for custody in early January.Copy !req
43. However, they would like
to take Susie sooner than later.Copy !req
44. - How much sooner?
- End of the week.Copy !req
45. They feel the change would be less
traumatic now than in a month or two.Copy !req
46. Right.Copy !req
47. I mentioned your wish to continue
to be part of Susie's life...Copy !req
48. as her aunt, and they are willing
to think about it.Copy !req
49. Right.Copy !req
50. Yes.Copy !req
51. I'll come out.Copy !req
52. They're nice people, but there's no
reason to feel you have to comply...Copy !req
53. with their timetable and conditions.Copy !req
54. You need to feel comfortable
with the arrangement.Copy !req
55. I know.Copy !req
56. And you should take
all the time you need.Copy !req
57. I don't think time will make it any easier.Copy !req
58. Ready?Copy !req
59. - Oh, what are their first names?
- Kevin and Lisa.Copy !req
60. Lisa, Kevin.Copy !req
61. I'm so excited.Copy !req
62. I'd like you to meet Susan Lewis.Copy !req
63. Hello.Copy !req
64. Nice to meet you, Susan.Copy !req
65. This is Susie. So beautiful.Copy !req
66. Thank you.Copy !req
67. - Do you want to hold her?
- Oh, yes.Copy !req
68. Yes.Copy !req
69. You are so precious.Copy !req
70. So precious.Copy !req
71. Not my shift, not my shift.Copy !req
72. Why are these old charts still here?Copy !req
73. - Dr. Weaver usually weeds them out.
- You can tell when she's not here.Copy !req
74. - Yeah.
- Where's Susan?Copy !req
75. She took a personal day.Copy !req
76. Let there be no doubt.
Flu season has arrived...Copy !req
77. I have half the board.Copy !req
78. - One more. Chia-Chia Loew.
- Oh, yeah, let me see that.Copy !req
79. - Little boy with AIDS?
- Yep, he spiked a fever.Copy !req
80. He can't sit up. I put him in 3.Copy !req
81. - Kid in 2's done.
- You get the french fry out of his nose?Copy !req
82. I listened to his mother for 20 minutes.
I'll be glad when I go back to Surgery.Copy !req
83. Look at the bright side. You've a chance
to perfect your bedside manner.Copy !req
84. - Here's another.
- Great.Copy !req
85. All yesterday he is in bed throwing up.Copy !req
86. He stopped talking.Copy !req
87. The first thing we need to do is bring
his fever down and stop the vomiting.Copy !req
88. In order to know the right medicine
to give him...Copy !req
89. we're gonna have to do
a lumbar puncture.Copy !req
90. It's where we take fluid
from around his spine...Copy !req
91. and test it to see what's wrong.
That's what we're gonna do, okay?Copy !req
92. Yes. You make him well?Copy !req
93. Well, we can't cure the AIDS,
you know that...Copy !req
94. but we'll do what we can
to make him feel better.Copy !req
95. - Thank you.
- Yeah.Copy !req
96. Chia-Chia.Copy !req
97. It's a piercing sort of pain,
like a spike through the temple.Copy !req
98. - How long have you had migraines?
- All my life.Copy !req
99. - Do you get them?
- No.Copy !req
100. - You?
- No.Copy !req
101. Count your blessings.Copy !req
102. I'll ask the doctor
about giving you some Imitrex.Copy !req
103. Oh, I had that once. Gave me chest pain.Copy !req
104. - Okay. In that case, Toradol?
- Can't.Copy !req
105. It gives me hives.Copy !req
106. But they gave me something here
that worked wonders.Copy !req
107. It began with a D.Copy !req
108. - What was it?
- Demerol?Copy !req
109. That's it.Copy !req
110. Okay.Copy !req
111. We'll be right back.Copy !req
112. - She's sweet.
- She's a junkie.Copy !req
113. - What?
- It's a snow job.Copy !req
114. She's faking migraines to get a quick fix.Copy !req
115. How can you tell?Copy !req
116. You learn to smell them.
Have you ever seen the turkey file?Copy !req
117. Hey, Dr. Benton. Still works.Copy !req
118. Just kidding. Different flashlight.Copy !req
119. I thought that splint was supposed
to stay on till tomorrow.Copy !req
120. - You got that circled on your calendar?
- I handled a lot of dislocations in Ortho.Copy !req
121. - Not interested.
- You're risking permanent joint laxity.Copy !req
122. - Osteoarthritis.
- Goodbye.Copy !req
123. - Tendinitis.
- Dr. B, got a lady here, beat up bad.Copy !req
124. - Can you hear me, hon?
- What happened?Copy !req
125. Anonymous call.
Found her on the floor at home.Copy !req
126. Multiple contusions,
bruises to the face and chest.Copy !req
127. - Conscious but unresponsive.
- Okay, lift her on my count.Copy !req
128. Nice and easy. Here we go.
One, two, three.Copy !req
129. - Do we have a name?
- ID says Vickie Mazovick.Copy !req
130. Vickie, squeeze my hand.Copy !req
131. - No blood in the canal.
- Negative Babinski.Copy !req
132. - What's wrong with her?
- May be psychotic.Copy !req
133. Vickie, talk to me.
Tell me, who did this to you?Copy !req
134. All right, can you feel this?Copy !req
135. - Responds to pain.
- Leave me alone!Copy !req
136. - Damn!
- Should have kept your splint on.Copy !req
137. - Extensive bruising to the ribs.
- Get X-ray. Carter, how's her chest?Copy !req
138. - Good bilateral breath sounds.
- She's crying.Copy !req
139. It's a good sign, I guess.Copy !req
140. It's okay, sweetie. It's okay.Copy !req
141. Damn!Copy !req
142. - What was her last name again?
- Krupke.Copy !req
143. Krupke. Krupke.Copy !req
144. "Krupke, Lottie.
Also known as Kamen, Laura.Copy !req
145. Also known as Kimball, Myrna."Copy !req
146. "Addicted to narcotics, alcoholic,
bipolar." God, this is sad.Copy !req
147. What's sad is when they con you
out of five or six doses...Copy !req
148. before you catch on.
Then you really feel like a chump.Copy !req
149. Nurse Hathaway?Copy !req
150. Carol.Copy !req
151. E. Ray Bozman. I'm your nurse trainee.Copy !req
152. Oh, yes, right. Come on in.Copy !req
153. Grab a lab coat.
I'll be with you in a sec.Copy !req
154. Mark, I gotta do an LP on a 4-year-old.
I could use a hand.Copy !req
155. - Harper, you ever see an LP?
- No, but I'd like to.Copy !req
156. I don't really wanna babysit
a med student right now.Copy !req
157. Well, it's either Harper or the guy
wearing Morgenstern's lab coat.Copy !req
158. Harper, let's do it.Copy !req
159. Yeah. They seemed like nice people,
didn't they?Copy !req
160. Yeah? Smart, funny.Copy !req
161. Not so perfect they're obnoxious.Copy !req
162. And they have a little boy.Copy !req
163. Yeah. You could have a big brother.Copy !req
164. Someone to look out for you...Copy !req
165. teach you stuff.Copy !req
166. Susie...Copy !req
167. this is so hard.Copy !req
168. I just don't think I'd be
a good enough mother.Copy !req
169. We have ways of screwing kids up
in my family.Copy !req
170. I just want you to be happy.Copy !req
171. I love you.Copy !req
172. You know that?Copy !req
173. I do.Copy !req
174. Oh, God.Copy !req
175. - Orbit's okay. No fracture.
- She's got a cracked rib.Copy !req
176. Two cracked ribs, two healed fractures,
old shoulder fracture, humerus.Copy !req
177. Hey, you put your splint on. Wise choice.Copy !req
178. - She said anything yet?
- No.Copy !req
179. Actually, she told me she wanted
to go home.Copy !req
180. Not a good idea.Copy !req
181. She's been here three times before.
First time, she said it was her husband...Copy !req
182. - ... but wouldn't press charges.
- And the other times?Copy !req
183. - Said she fell down the stairs.
- All right, call the social worker.Copy !req
184. Give her some Vicodin for the pain
and tell her to see her doctor.Copy !req
185. - You're not going to talk to her?
- Not my job.Copy !req
186. All right, kiddo. Let's get started.Copy !req
187. - Okay, here we go, let's get going.
- Hi, Chia-Chia.Copy !req
188. Hold onto the back of his thighs.Copy !req
189. With your other hand, you hold
onto the back of his neck. Lean over.Copy !req
190. Hold on tight.Copy !req
191. No, no.Copy !req
192. Buddy, your mom tells me you like
to play with the neighbor's dog.Copy !req
193. It's okay.Copy !req
194. - No. No. No.
- You have to hold him tight.Copy !req
195. That's just to numb it.
The next one won't be so bad.Copy !req
196. Now, when I was a kid...Copy !req
197. - ... I had a dog named Louie.
- No. No.Copy !req
198. - No, Mama.
- Louie the dog.Copy !req
199. You're doing great.Copy !req
200. Okay, there we go.Copy !req
201. Doing great.Copy !req
202. - He stopped moving.
- Yeah.Copy !req
203. He surrendered.Copy !req
204. Just a little more.Copy !req
205. Not much longer.Copy !req
206. Jerry. If anybody calls for me,
I'll be up in the O.R. With Dr. Hicks.Copy !req
207. Okay.Copy !req
208. Is it lighter in here? They repaint?Copy !req
209. The Weaver has lifted. Cake?Copy !req
210. Sure. Subtle.Copy !req
211. - What's going on?
- Birthday party.Copy !req
212. Oh, yeah? Whose birthday?Copy !req
213. - Bob's.
- Bob's not working today.Copy !req
214. Well, it's still her birthday.Copy !req
215. In that case, how about a piece?Copy !req
216. Sorry, it's all gone.Copy !req
217. - Hey there.
- Man, was that no fun.Copy !req
218. - What?
- LP on a little kid.Copy !req
219. Always rough. I'm on my way
to resect a bowel.Copy !req
220. Wanna get some lunch after that?Copy !req
221. - Sorry, I gotta ride herd on this kid.
- How about dinner?Copy !req
222. - Possibly.
- Possibly.Copy !req
223. - Probably.
- Possibly.Copy !req
224. Carter. You and Harper?Copy !req
225. Something extracurricular
happening there?Copy !req
226. - Dr. Greene.
- Loretta. How have you been?Copy !req
227. Lousy. Threw my back out.Copy !req
228. - How?
- At work.Copy !req
229. Jerry, can you start a chart? Lydia?Copy !req
230. - Coming.
- Come on.Copy !req
231. So this is, like, a midlife
career shift for you?Copy !req
232. Yeah, I tend to shift a lot.Copy !req
233. I've been a UPS delivery-man,
a short-order cook, a rodeo clown.Copy !req
234. And then in the mid-'80s, I got into
the Human Potential Movement.Copy !req
235. - Doing what?
- Lectures, inspirational speeches.Copy !req
236. I'm a nurturer. I like helping people.Copy !req
237. So nursing seemed like the next
logical step in my life progression.Copy !req
238. Okay, Mr. Keller.
You take a seat right here.Copy !req
239. There you go. Great.Copy !req
240. I want you to shave his head,
clean, irrigate the wound.Copy !req
241. I'll start a chart and get a doctor
to stitch him.Copy !req
242. - Okey-dokey.
- Dr. Ross...Copy !req
243. I picked up Chia-Chia's lab results.Copy !req
244. Did a cell count, differential, protein,
glucose, Gram's stain and culture...Copy !req
245. but they ran out of fluid
for the India ink stain.Copy !req
246. I don't believe it.Copy !req
247. - Is that the test for meningitis?
- Yes, yes.Copy !req
248. Okay, tell me if this hurts.
Keep your leg straight.Copy !req
249. It's okay.Copy !req
250. I don't see any sign of a slipped disc.
Just a muscle strain.Copy !req
251. - You need to stay off your feet.
- No problem.Copy !req
252. I mean bed rest, Loretta,
emphasis on "rest."Copy !req
253. Gotcha.Copy !req
254. It still hurts like hell, though.Copy !req
255. - Can we give her something?
- I'll write a prescription for Feldene.Copy !req
256. That ought to do the trick.Copy !req
257. Dr. Greene, Dr. Lewis is here to see you.Copy !req
258. Loretta, take care.Copy !req
259. Figures this would happen today.Copy !req
260. - I was supposed to have a job interview.
- Really?Copy !req
261. Yeah. Answering phones for a place
that makes clothes and stuff.Copy !req
262. - The social worker put me up to it.
- Sounds like a good job.Copy !req
263. I never get these things, though.Copy !req
264. They take one look at me,
they know the score.Copy !req
265. I wonder how. We have a closet
full of clothes here.Copy !req
266. - You could see if there's anything.
- Why do you got clothes?Copy !req
267. - Whoever needs them.
- Where do you get them?Copy !req
268. - Dead people.
- You gotta be kidding.Copy !req
269. There's some nice stuff.
We get some pretty rich dead people.Copy !req
270. Okay. We need to do another
lumbar puncture on Chia-Chia.Copy !req
271. - Another?
- I'm sorry. If there were any other way...Copy !req
272. I would do it.Copy !req
273. This is gonna be a small amount,
not as much as before.Copy !req
274. Okay?Copy !req
275. I'm sorry.Copy !req
276. I met with a lawyer today
about putting Susie up for adoption.Copy !req
277. Really? Is it definite?Copy !req
278. Before I make my final decision, I need
to know what my options are at work.Copy !req
279. If I keep her, there's no way I could
continue to do my residency full-time.Copy !req
280. Could I do it part-time?Copy !req
281. - I'll look into it. Heard from Chloe?
- No.Copy !req
282. It's been nuts here.
Do you want to get some coffee?Copy !req
283. No, Mark, I don't. I need to know
if a part-time schedule is doable.Copy !req
284. - I've only heard of that in Pediatrics.
- So it's not.Copy !req
285. I'll talk to Morgenstern,
see if we can work something out.Copy !req
286. I appreciate it.Copy !req
287. You beep me out of surgery
to sew up a drunk?Copy !req
288. - Benton said you like doing procedures.
- Very funny.Copy !req
289. - Oh, my God.
- Almost done.Copy !req
290. E. Ray, why did you shave his
entire head for a 4-centimeter lac?Copy !req
291. We've been talking about...Copy !req
292. how to effect positive change
in one's life...Copy !req
293. and how changing the physical
can be a symbolic first step...Copy !req
294. in transforming the inner self.Copy !req
295. Are you Benton?
McGillis, Social Services.Copy !req
296. I'm confused about your chart notes
on Vickie Mazovick...Copy !req
297. the woman who got beat up.Copy !req
298. You didn't note if she had
hand and arm injuries.Copy !req
299. - She didn't.
- Could you note that, please?Copy !req
300. It could be significant.Copy !req
301. If it was significant,
I would have written it down.Copy !req
302. It suggests she didn't defend herself,
which suggests she's given up...Copy !req
303. which means, statistically,
she's reached a stage...Copy !req
304. where she's in danger
of being killed.Copy !req
305. You didn't note what she said
when you asked what happened.Copy !req
306. - I didn't ask what happened.
- Did you suspect abuse?Copy !req
307. - Of course I did. I saw the chart.
- Then you're supposed to ask.Copy !req
308. - So, what did she tell you?
- Nothing.Copy !req
309. So, what makes you think
she's gonna tell me anything?Copy !req
310. It's worth a try, don't you think?Copy !req
311. Oh, this would look good on you.Copy !req
312. Maybe not.Copy !req
313. It doesn't really quite fit.Copy !req
314. What do you mean? It looks great!Copy !req
315. - Do you think so?
- Oh, yeah.Copy !req
316. It needs something.Copy !req
317. You see some stuff working here, I bet.Copy !req
318. - Like you don't?
- My clients don't die on me.Copy !req
319. Except for that one guy.Copy !req
320. That's it.Copy !req
321. You think so?Copy !req
322. - You're doing another LP?
- Lab forgot an India ink.Copy !req
323. I'll tap out a couple cc's
and do the test myself.Copy !req
324. - How's he holding up?
- Not well.Copy !req
325. This is gonna be quick.
It's only gonna take a few minutes.Copy !req
326. Hi, Chia-Chia. How's it going?Copy !req
327. Get him over on his side.Copy !req
328. Mrs. Mazovick?Copy !req
329. I'm Dr. Benton. I need to ask you
a few questions about how you got hurt.Copy !req
330. I fell.Copy !req
331. - There are people that can help you.
- I don't want any help.Copy !req
332. Okay.Copy !req
333. I'm still gonna have to report it
to the police.Copy !req
334. Won't do any good.Copy !req
335. Three drops in there.Copy !req
336. And a drop of ink.Copy !req
337. Then...Copy !req
338. you slide it under the microscope.Copy !req
339. - You okay?
- Yeah. Fine.Copy !req
340. You did really well in there.Copy !req
341. Better the second time than the first.Copy !req
342. - Does it get easier?
- No.Copy !req
343. Wait. Catch that light.Copy !req
344. I thought Pediatrics
was the happy specialty.Copy !req
345. Most of the time.Copy !req
346. Okay. Here you go. What do you see?Copy !req
347. Yeast cells,
some large capsules around them.Copy !req
348. Cryptococcus.Copy !req
349. - He has cryptococcal meningitis?
- Yeah.Copy !req
350. He's getting near the end.Copy !req
351. I need somebody to call the police
for a suspected domestic abuse case.Copy !req
352. You got it.Copy !req
353. Carter, where are you going?Copy !req
354. Morgenstern's doing a hemicolectomy.
He asked me to make the incision.Copy !req
355. Not today. A guy in 6 cut his finger.Copy !req
356. - Please! Please, I need help!
- Get a gurney!Copy !req
357. - You'll need help.
- Got it.Copy !req
358. - What if you need a cutdown?
- Got it.Copy !req
359. - Where are you hurt?
- It's not me.Copy !req
360. It's my husband. He's in the car.Copy !req
361. - What happened?
- He was on his motorcycle...Copy !req
362. outside our apartment
and a truck hit him and took off.Copy !req
363. All right, let's get him out.Copy !req
364. - Come on.
- Oh, man, that's a lot of blood.Copy !req
365. - Is he dead?
- No, he's still breathing.Copy !req
366. I tried to get him here as fast as I could.
I ran red lights.Copy !req
367. - You did the right thing.
- He's gonna need at least six units.Copy !req
368. - Wait a minute. Where's his arm?
- It's in the back seat!Copy !req
369. Oh, my God.Copy !req
370. - It is the same thing he had before?
- Yes. He's...Copy !req
371. He's had a relapse. He's very sick.Copy !req
372. The best way to treat him now...Copy !req
373. is to give him a high concentration
of medication intrathecally.Copy !req
374. Which means...?Copy !req
375. It means that we're gonna do
the same procedure as the spinal tap...Copy !req
376. but in reverse.Copy !req
377. Again?Copy !req
378. It's the only way to get
a high enough dose of the medication.Copy !req
379. One more time.Copy !req
380. No. It has to be a full course.Copy !req
381. That means two times a day...Copy !req
382. for 10 days.Copy !req
383. We'll admit him into the hospital.
We'll put a catheter in his back.Copy !req
384. That way he won't have to have
the puncture each time.Copy !req
385. It will stop the vomiting and the fever?Copy !req
386. If he responds to the medication, yes.Copy !req
387. Once his body has fought off
the meningitis...Copy !req
388. it'll be able to work harder
against the AIDS.Copy !req
389. If you think this is the best thing
for Chia-Chia.Copy !req
390. I do. Yes.Copy !req
391. I work at Daley Plaza and my wife
works at the Merchandise Mart...Copy !req
392. so we got together for a picnic lunch
by the fountain at lunch hour.Copy !req
393. - Sounds nice.
- It was...Copy !req
394. until I decided to cut the French bread
with my Swiss Army knife.Copy !req
395. I knew I should have gotten soft crust.Copy !req
396. - How long have you had that mole?
- Oh, a while.Copy !req
397. It actually looks a little bigger
than last time.Copy !req
398. I you want, I can excise it
and run a test, just to be safe.Copy !req
399. - What does that involve?
- An anesthetic, surgically remove it.Copy !req
400. - All right.
- Yeah? Great.Copy !req
401. I'll just run it past the Attending
and I will be right back.Copy !req
402. Yes.Copy !req
403. - Three units O-neg. Put it on the infuser.
- He's still bleeding.Copy !req
404. - Inflate the BP cuff to 150.
- What's going on, Peter?Copy !req
405. Hit-and-run amputation.
He's hypovolemic.Copy !req
406. - Where's the arm?
- Wrapped and on ice.Copy !req
407. Get a vascular surgeon down here.
Call the Reimplantation Team.Copy !req
408. - Get a pulse.
- He's bradying down.Copy !req
409. - Tube him.
- Not with this finger.Copy !req
410. - Two more units here.
- ET tray.Copy !req
411. - Atropine. One milligram, IV push.
- Number 8.Copy !req
412. - I got a pulse.
- BP's 50 palp.Copy !req
413. That's something.
Hang another two units O-neg.Copy !req
414. We'll move him as soon as he's tubed.Copy !req
415. All right, let's move him.Copy !req
416. Cookie. Door.Copy !req
417. - Who is it?
- It's me, Mom.Copy !req
418. - Do you have the baby?
- Yeah.Copy !req
419. Just a second.Copy !req
420. - Smile!
- Mom.Copy !req
421. You bought a video camera.Copy !req
422. If you're gonna be a grandma,
you may as well do it right.Copy !req
423. They cost a fortune.
No wonder there's a trade deficit.Copy !req
424. - Mom, would you do that later?
- Don't be such a grouch.Copy !req
425. - Hi.
- Turn around. Smile for Grandma.Copy !req
426. - I need to sit down.
- Sit. Give me the little termite.Copy !req
427. - Come on.
- Okay.Copy !req
428. - Yeah, there you go.
- Right over here. Look. Up, up, up.Copy !req
429. - I need to talk to you guys.
- Look.Copy !req
430. - Mom?
- Hi. Oh, she's so cute.Copy !req
431. Look at that.Copy !req
432. - Dad.
- I'm listening.Copy !req
433. I met with a lawyer today about...Copy !req
434. giving Susie up for adoption.Copy !req
435. But she's not even your baby.Copy !req
436. Mom, Chloe is never coming back.Copy !req
437. Would you turn that thing off?Copy !req
438. I don't know how you could
even consider that.Copy !req
439. - You don't wanna give her away, do you?
- Of course I don't.Copy !req
440. - It kills me to even think about it.
- Then don't.Copy !req
441. How am I supposed to raise her alone
and finish my residency?Copy !req
442. People do these things all the time,
don't they?Copy !req
443. Dad, I work 12-hour shifts
five days a week.Copy !req
444. I won't put her in daycare for that long.Copy !req
445. There must be something you can do.Copy !req
446. Could you guys keep her
three days a week?Copy !req
447. Maybe we could do it.
Three days a week?Copy !req
448. Sure! We know what that means. I'll be
doing all the work, running her around.Copy !req
449. - I'm here.
- You haven't left this house in years.Copy !req
450. - You hardly leave that chair.
- I'm retired.Copy !req
451. - You make me sound like a nut.
- It's not normal.Copy !req
452. At least I don't drink all day.
Two vodka gimlets for breakfast.Copy !req
453. - Whose report is this?
- Finger lac in 6.Copy !req
454. - I saw a growth on his arm and tested it.
- Melanoma.Copy !req
455. Bingo. And I found
an axillary lymph node on exam.Copy !req
456. - It needs to be excised.
- I spoke to Pereira in Surgical Oncology.Copy !req
457. He agreed to let me do the biopsy.Copy !req
458. Peter, cop's in with Mrs. Mazovick,
in case you wanna talk to him.Copy !req
459. Right.Copy !req
460. - I just picked up an interesting case.
- Yeah?Copy !req
461. Yeah. I excised a mole on a 36-year-old
male. It's melanoma.Copy !req
462. I get to biopsy the lymph node.Copy !req
463. A 36-year-old has cancer
and you get to do the biopsy.Copy !req
464. Well, congratulations.Copy !req
465. I hope you have an easier time
convincing her to make a statement.Copy !req
466. - And who are you?
- I'm Dr. Benton.Copy !req
467. I was in charge of her case, Officer...Copy !req
468. Mazovick.Copy !req
469. Come on, babe, let's go.Copy !req
470. What goes through your head
when you're beating her?Copy !req
471. What a big man you are?Copy !req
472. Michael, please.Copy !req
473. Please.Copy !req
474. Your husband just went up to the O.R.Copy !req
475. They're trying to reattach his arm.Copy !req
476. - They can do that?
- Well, they can try.Copy !req
477. With complete amputation,
the success rate's small.Copy !req
478. We only have insurance left
for three days.Copy !req
479. I wouldn't worry about that.
They'll cover it.Copy !req
480. Jason lost his job three months ago,
benefits too.Copy !req
481. I'm a waitress. No benefits.Copy !req
482. - Is there somebody I can call for you?
- No. No, thanks.Copy !req
483. I keep having this weird thought that
Jason's dead and you're not telling me.Copy !req
484. - He isn't, is he?
- No.Copy !req
485. He's in the O.R.
You're just feeling the stress.Copy !req
486. Carrie?Copy !req
487. Would you like to come
and lie down in the lounge?Copy !req
488. No. No, thank you.Copy !req
489. How are you doing, Mr. Forchet?Copy !req
490. I'm starting to worry a little bit, actually.Copy !req
491. Is something wrong?Copy !req
492. Dr. Carter, they said you might need
some help with a lymph node biopsy.Copy !req
493. A biopsy?Copy !req
494. - Do I have cancer?
- Mr. Forchet...Copy !req
495. your mole was identified
as a malignant melanoma.Copy !req
496. - Oh, my God.
- The good news is that we caught it...Copy !req
497. which means we can treat it
immediately.Copy !req
498. What's the worst-case scenario?Copy !req
499. There's no way to gauge that...Copy !req
500. until we stage the cancer
and see if it's spread.Copy !req
501. Which is why we're
gonna do the biopsy.Copy !req
502. I can't believe this. I mean,
I came in for a cut on my finger and...Copy !req
503. I need to call my wife. I...Copy !req
504. How am I gonna tell her?
What am I gonna say?Copy !req
505. It's okay.Copy !req
506. - I can't believe this is happening.
- I know. I know.Copy !req
507. Just let it out and work through it.Copy !req
508. You think the injuries
resulted from battery?Copy !req
509. - Yep. No question.
- You wanna testify if we need you?Copy !req
510. - I guess. You think that's gonna happen?
- It's up to her.Copy !req
511. If she won't make a statement,
no witnesses, I can't help her.Copy !req
512. The fact he's a cop,
does that make a difference?Copy !req
513. No. Not to me.Copy !req
514. Have you seen these?Copy !req
515. The first time she came in.
Missing two teeth, broken jaw.Copy !req
516. Second time, bruises on her back
and buttocks.Copy !req
517. Third time, broken arm.Copy !req
518. And these? These are from today.Copy !req
519. She used to work dispatch at the 14th.Copy !req
520. - You know her?
- Used to.Copy !req
521. Doug, I signed for the amphotericin B
you ordered for Chia-Chia.Copy !req
522. - Got it. Thanks.
- What's the plan?Copy !req
523. The plan is to buy that kid
and his mother some time together.Copy !req
524. - He didn't respond last time.
- This time I'll give it intrathecally.Copy !req
525. That's a pretty rough procedure,
especially on a 4-year-old.Copy !req
526. - What are you saying?
- I was wondering...Copy !req
527. if the treatment's extreme
for the best prognosis.Copy !req
528. Not in my opinion.Copy !req
529. - Okay.
- Okay.Copy !req
530. Tell me if you're getting dizzy.Copy !req
531. Stop.Copy !req
532. Yeah. Hey.Copy !req
533. Can you see?Copy !req
534. Can you see?Copy !req
535. Do you remember the nice lady
from this morning?Copy !req
536. Wanna go on the slide?
Let's go on the slide. Come on.Copy !req
537. What do you think?Copy !req
538. - You designed that yourself?
- Yeah.Copy !req
539. You can swim in it or you can
wrap a scarf around your waist...Copy !req
540. and wear it out on the town.Copy !req
541. Who does she mean by "you"?Copy !req
542. I'm meeting with investors next week
about designing a whole line.Copy !req
543. I'm gonna call it "Randi-Wear."Copy !req
544. Catchy.Copy !req
545. Well, if you want to invest,
now is the time.Copy !req
546. On that note,
I bid you all a fond good eve.Copy !req
547. - It's been a wonderful Weaver-less day.
- Nighty-night.Copy !req
548. Is he single?Copy !req
549. Yeah.Copy !req
550. Carrie, your husband's out of surgery.Copy !req
551. They were able to reattach his arm.Copy !req
552. You said the chances
of that happening were small.Copy !req
553. We're not out of the woods.Copy !req
554. We still have to wait and see
if the tissue can survive the trauma.Copy !req
555. Do you have any Valium or something?Copy !req
556. I'd have to write a prescription.Copy !req
557. - But I can start a chart for you.
- No, that's okay.Copy !req
558. - I'll try a cigarette first.
- You can't...Copy !req
559. smoke in here.Copy !req
560. Oh, yeah.Copy !req
561. Carrie.Copy !req
562. This is good news.Copy !req
563. Yeah. It's great.Copy !req
564. - Excuse me, Mrs. Loew?
- Yes.Copy !req
565. I'm Dr. Greene.
I'm the attending physician here in ER.Copy !req
566. I'd like to talk to you about Chia-Chia.Copy !req
567. - Something is wrong with Chia-Chia?
- No.Copy !req
568. I was talking with Dr. Ross
about the treatment you agreed to.Copy !req
569. I wanted to make sure you understood
everything that was involved.Copy !req
570. Yes.Copy !req
571. The side effects of the medicine
can be very painful.Copy !req
572. Worse sometimes than the symptoms
of the meningitis.Copy !req
573. - Worse?
- Yes.Copy !req
574. I wanna be sure that you know that
if you don't want to go through that...Copy !req
575. we can give you medicine
to make him comfortable...Copy !req
576. and you can take him home.Copy !req
577. But he will be sick.Copy !req
578. Mrs. Loew...Copy !req
579. the fact that the medicine
failed once before...Copy !req
580. means that there's a strong possibility
that it may fail again.Copy !req
581. Even if we could cure
the meningitis...Copy !req
582. your son's AIDS is very advanced.Copy !req
583. With or without treatment...Copy !req
584. realistically, we're really
only looking at a matter of days.Copy !req
585. I'm sorry.Copy !req
586. You need to decide...Copy !req
587. how you and your son
want to spend those days.Copy !req
588. But Dr. Ross...Copy !req
589. But he...Copy !req
590. He said...Copy !req
591. - You went over his aftercare?
- I did.Copy !req
592. He needs his boil drained.
We got a first trauma pulling in.Copy !req
593. Carter, you take him.Copy !req
594. - Did you take the syringe in Room 2?
- No. Why?Copy !req
595. I just lost 5 milligrams of morphine.Copy !req
596. - What do we have?
- This cop is beat up pretty bad.Copy !req
597. Missing teeth,
look like his jaw's broke, busted ribs.Copy !req
598. - What's his name?
- Mazovick.Copy !req
599. - How did it happen?
- He was in pursuit of a suspect...Copy !req
600. and took a bad fall.Copy !req
601. Let's get his clothes off.Copy !req
602. Get an oral surgeon to wire his teeth.Copy !req
603. We got a mandible fracture.
Call X-ray.Copy !req
604. Crepitus on the right.
Absent breath sound.Copy !req
605. Collapsed lung?
Chest tube tray coming.Copy !req
606. - All right, prepping drapo.
- See you around, doc.Copy !req
607. - Number 10 blade?
- Yeah.Copy !req
608. "Christopher Robin
had wheezles and sneezles.Copy !req
609. They bundled him into his bed.Copy !req
610. They gave him what goes
with a cold in the nose...Copy !req
611. and some more for the cold
in his head."Copy !req
612. - A.A. Milne?
- Now We Are Six.Copy !req
613. - Eeyore was my favorite.
- Tigger.Copy !req
614. - So it's time to get started?
- Would you slide that tray over here?Copy !req
615. - Hey, we're just getting started.
- I want to take him home.Copy !req
616. - Now?
- Yes.Copy !req
617. We discussed this.Copy !req
618. Now, this is a painful procedure...Copy !req
619. but it's the best shot we have
of buying him more time.Copy !req
620. I don't want him to have more pain.Copy !req
621. I want him home with me.Copy !req
622. Okay.Copy !req
623. - You think I make a bad decision?
- I think you're making the right decision.Copy !req
624. Thank you.Copy !req
625. I'm gonna get the medication
to make sure he's comfortable at home.Copy !req
626. Carol, you gotta come see this.Copy !req
627. Won't stop coming out.Copy !req
628. Won't stop.Copy !req
629. Well, I found my missing morphine.Copy !req
630. I have to get this clean.Copy !req
631. It's Jason's favorite.Copy !req
632. There was so much blood.Copy !req
633. - I guess we'd better find her a bed.
- Yeah, and some Narcan.Copy !req
634. He said it'd be easy.Copy !req
635. But the ax wasn't sharp enough.Copy !req
636. - What did she say?
- Something about an ax.Copy !req
637. We only had three days left
on the policy.Copy !req
638. - Oh, my God.
- What?Copy !req
639. Her boyfriend's arm.Copy !req
640. They chopped it off?Copy !req
641. Chop, chop.Copy !req
642. Oh, Lordy.Copy !req
643. Five bucks says she's in there.Copy !req
644. "Carlisle. Denner. Dougherty."Copy !req
645. "Diehl, Carrie."Copy !req
646. Oh, man.
She's been in here half a dozen times.Copy !req
647. "Drug-seeking, narcotics OD."Copy !req
648. - I missed it.
- And husband.Copy !req
649. Honey, you were burned.Copy !req
650. Five bucks.Copy !req
651. - Mark, you went behind my back.
- You lost perspective.Copy !req
652. You had no right to tell my patient
what you thought she should do.Copy !req
653. I've an obligation to make sure patients
have the information to make decisions.Copy !req
654. - That's my job.
- Spare me your Attending oath of office.Copy !req
655. - We're talking about a 4-year-old.
- A 4-year-old with AIDS...Copy !req
656. you wanted to put through
a torturous procedure his last few days.Copy !req
657. - You don't know that. Nobody knows.
- Oh, no!Copy !req
658. There's always a miracle!
I thought we were practicing medicine.Copy !req
659. I'll tell you something. If it was your kid,
you would bet on a miracle!Copy !req
660. Lydia! I got it!Copy !req
661. - The job?
- Yes!Copy !req
662. Loretta, that's great!Copy !req
663. You are looking
at a real, live receptionist.Copy !req
664. I knew you could do it.
I am so happy for you.Copy !req
665. I beat out five other girls.Copy !req
666. Of course, I had to do the guy,
but, hey, I got the job!Copy !req
667. Are you okay?Copy !req
668. - I'm a mess.
- Yeah. Me too.Copy !req
669. You were a big help today.
Thank you.Copy !req
670. I was gonna thank you.Copy !req
671. For what?
Giving you a front-row seat...Copy !req
672. to the limitations of modern medicine?Copy !req
673. For what it's worth...Copy !req
674. I think you were right
to keep trying today.Copy !req
675. My medical school professors told me...Copy !req
676. County was full of burnouts
that didn't care.Copy !req
677. They got the "burnout" part right.Copy !req
678. What do you do after a day like today?Copy !req
679. I tend to drink,
but I'm not the best role model.Copy !req
680. I wouldn't mind a drink.Copy !req
681. Hello.Copy !req
682. Hello.Copy !req
683. I stopped by your apartment.
Am I interrupting?Copy !req
684. No. Pull up a swing.Copy !req
685. I talked to Morgenstern.Copy !req
686. He said he'd present your request
to the Residency Committee.Copy !req
687. Sounds like he wasn't too thrilled.Copy !req
688. You ever seen Morgenstern thrilled?Copy !req
689. No.Copy !req
690. He agreed to consider it.
That's something.Copy !req
691. - Thank you.
- You're welcome.Copy !req
692. I'm keeping her.Copy !req
693. That's terrific.Copy !req
694. I'm so glad.Copy !req
695. - If you need tips on parenting—
- You're the last person I'd call.Copy !req
696. Thank you.Copy !req
697. - Would you hold her?
- Sure.Copy !req
698. Come here.Copy !req
699. Yes, hello.Copy !req
700. What's your Aunt Susie doing?Copy !req
701. - Look at her.
- Hello.Copy !req
702. - Look at her go.
- Hello.Copy !req
703. She's silly, isn't she?Copy !req
704. She's silly, isn't she?Copy !req
705. Your Aunt Susie's loopy.Copy !req
706. Can you believe she's a doctor?Copy !req
707. - Can you?
- No.Copy !req
