You make the nursing schedule.

like any food or anything?
Copy !req
95. For what?

the clinic today.
Copy !req
97. Their annual pilgrimage
to their worthy causes.
Copy !req

the only thing being checked out.
Copy !req
100. Henry! Something wrong?
Copy !req
101. No. I feel much better. Why?
Copy !req
102. You're on time.

103. I suppose I deserve that.
Copy !req
104. I still have to pass this clerkship.
Copy !req
105. No one's pulling for you
more than me.
Copy !req
106. - A gram of Ancef for our friend in 2?
- Sure thing.
Copy !req
107. That's good. Because I figure
the only thing...
Copy !req
108. that I really haven't done is
a major emergency procedure.
Copy !req
109. That's a matter of opinion.
Copy !req
110. So why don't you give me an LP
or an intubation or something...
Copy !req
111. and then you can ship me off
with a clear conscience.
Copy !req
112. I brought my own gloves.
Copy !req

- $600.
Copy !req
120. And I was making a dent in it,
but with the holidays and everything-
Copy !req
121. Listen, I haven't gotten
your present yet either.
Copy !req
122. So why don't I pay your balance
as a Christmas present?
Copy !req
123. - No, I can't let you do that.
- Sure, you can.
Copy !req
124. But you have to promise
not to go and spend it on me.
Copy !req
125. Really?
Copy !req
126. - Anybody home?
- Carol!
Copy !req
127. - What happened?

to intubate.
Copy !req
143. - So we intubate now?
- Right.
Copy !req
144. Jonathan, we're gonna put you
to sleep.
Copy !req
145. Then we're gonna put a tube in
your windpipe to help you breathe.
Copy !req
146. Can I try it?
Copy !req
147. Kids are tough.
This isn't really a teaching case.
Copy !req
148. Next time, Henry.

Know who you're dealing with.
Copy !req
157. The patient won't report me, Kerry.
Will you?

Copy !req
180. - Get a cab company to comp them.

that he got falling out of a dumpster.
Copy !req
350. Doesn't look like they did
a visual acuity test.
Copy !req
351. I wonder what's his angle.
Copy !req
352. Who knows? The Lord works
in mysterious ways.
Copy !req
353. - Are you Dr. Benton?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
354. Tommy Gruger.
I'm a friend of Bart's.
Copy !req
355. I saw him playing with his dog.
Copy !req
356. He can see. He says you did it.
Copy !req
357. I'm sorry. He's mistaken.
Copy !req
358. Please, help me.
I want to walk again.
Copy !req
359. Why won't you cure me?
I'll believe whatever you say.
Copy !req
360. I'm sorry.
There's nothing to believe.
Copy !req
361. I'm gonna take your picture now, okay?
Copy !req
362. Broken nose, fractured ankle,
multiple lacerations and contusions.
Copy !req
363. Duct tape used on her mouth.
Copy !req
364. Vaginal penetration,
possible foreign object.
Copy !req
365. - Anything else?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
366. Yeah, they wrote on her.
Copy !req
367. The word "whore"
in black Magic Marker.
Copy !req
368. - Does that suggest something?
- Maybe.
Copy !req
369. Do the injuries seem consistent
with her story?
Copy !req
370. You think she might have made this up?
Copy !req
371. A victim isn't always accurate.
Copy !req
372. It's hard to take notes
while being bludgeoned.
Copy !req
373. Give her a break.
She's been through a lot.
Copy !req
374. Okay. We'll take care if it. Thanks.
Copy !req
375. No problem.
Copy !req
376. - Your taxi's waiting.
- Great.
Copy !req
377. Was Allison Beaumont moved
from Recovery?
Copy !req
378. - She's just coming out of anesthesia.
- No, not this one. She's in a coma.
Copy !req
379. I don't think so.
Copy !req
380. Tell the cab to wait.
Copy !req
381. Allison, can you hear me?
Copy !req
382. Don't try to speak. Just squeeze
my hand if you hear me.
Copy !req
383. I'm Dr. Elizabeth Corday.
Do you know where you are?
Copy !req
384. You're in hospital.
Copy !req
385. You were involved in a very serious
automobile accident 10 days ago.
Copy !req
386. Do you understand?
Copy !req
387. Are you in any pain?
Copy !req
388. What is it?
Copy !req
389. MOM?
Copy !req
390. I'm afraid she didn't survive.
Copy !req
391. Your mom died.
Copy !req
392. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
393. Hey, what's that?
Copy !req
394. Hey. Oh, nothing.
Copy !req
395. This guy dropped this off for you.
I think it's more lawyer stuff.
Copy !req
396. Don't worry. It's good news.
Copy !req
397. What is it? Is that for me?
Copy !req
398. No. Mark, don't.
Copy !req
399. - No.
- Come on.
Copy !req
400. What'd you get-?
Copy !req
401. - Who's the heavy artillery for?
- A friend of mine. Her son.
Copy !req
402. I wish they had this stuff
when I was a kid.
Copy !req
403. Mark, I finished
Mrs. Larkin's rape form.
Copy !req
404. Did you want to review it
before I gave it to the cops?
Copy !req
405. - I'll give her a minute, then see her.
- All right.
Copy !req
406. That was a lie. This is for my son.
Copy !req
407. He's 5.
Copy !req
408. You have a son?
Copy !req
409. Yeah. I haven't seen him
since he was 2.
Copy !req
410. But I talked to him on the phone
a few times.
Copy !req
411. - You've never said anything.
- I know. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
412. It's really complicated.
Copy !req
413. His father and I broke up
when he was born.
Copy !req
414. I wasn't really together back then.
Copy !req
415. So I decided to let Joe's parents
take care of him.
Copy !req
416. He lives in a trailer park
right outside Kankakee.
Copy !req
417. I'll seal the rape kit now.
All right?
Copy !req
418. Yeah, sure.
Copy !req
419. I know that this is the best thing
for Jason.
Copy !req
420. Although I miss him, you know?
Copy !req
421. Sure. I can only imagine.
Copy !req
422. But at least this year for Christmas
I can send him some nice things.
Copy !req
423. - Sure.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
424. What kind of sicko
would rape an old lady?
Copy !req
425. I can't count the times I've
done this. It never gets any easier.
Copy !req
426. I'd worry if it did.
Copy !req
427. Would you work for me tomorrow?
You'd get time and a half.
Copy !req
428. Sorry, I'm going skiing with Alex.
Copy !req
429. Just the slopes, snow
and a hot tub for two.
Copy !req
430. Sounds great.
Copy !req
431. Carol, some old lady
with Santa Claus is looking for you.
Copy !req
432. She's early.
Copy !req
433. I'm sorry. As policy,
I don't give to panhandlers.
Copy !req
434. I recommend the Lakeshore Shelter
at 1 Oth and Wacker.
Copy !req
435. Two bucks.
Copy !req
436. - Give it a rest.
- Up yours, Santa.
Copy !req
437. Wait over there.
Someone'll be with you.
Copy !req
438. I don't want someone.
I want the miracle man.
Copy !req
439. I'm so sorry about this.
Thank you so much for coming.
Copy !req
440. My pleasure.
Copy !req
441. This is another of my grandsons,
Chase, John's cousin.
Copy !req
442. Hi. Carol Hathaway.
Copy !req
443. Do you smell smoke?
Copy !req
444. Oh, my God! Cynthia,
get the fire extinguisher!
Copy !req
445. - Hey, look out!
- Quick!
Copy !req
446. - Do you know how to use it?
- Yes.
Copy !req
447. Nice job!
Copy !req
448. It's been a little crazy
around here today.
Copy !req
449. Oh, man!
Copy !req
450. All the lights need to come down.
They're too old.
Copy !req
451. Even Rudolph? I just bought him.
Copy !req
452. Rudolph can stay.
Copy !req
453. - Carol, we need to talk.
- In a minute.
Copy !req
454. So this is where the clinic patients
wait before they're seen.
Copy !req
455. Yeah, I've been here over an hour.
Copy !req
456. We're still working out a few kinks.
Sharing space with the ER is...
Copy !req
457. it's confusing.
Copy !req
458. - Merry Christmas, Gamma!
- Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
459. - I was giving her the tour.
- Great. Where's Gramps?
Copy !req
460. He overdid it playing squash at the
club. Thought it best to stay home.
Copy !req
461. Bad enough to keep him
out of the Santa suit.
Copy !req
462. We have an excellent substitute.
Copy !req
463. - Yes.
- Hi, Scooter.
Copy !req
464. Very sharp. Is this the new and
improved? Changing of the guard?
Copy !req
465. - I sure hope not.
- Chase is executive heir apparent.
Copy !req
466. We can't all be doctors.
Copy !req
467. Would you like to see an exam room?
Copy !req
468. - Hey, Nat. How's it going?
- Just fine, Dr. Benton. How are you?
Copy !req
469. Can't complain.
Having a little trouble?
Copy !req
470. Yeah. She's 15 years old.
Bound to die on me sometimes.
Copy !req
471. How's your baby?
Copy !req
472. Loud. Actually, I'm looking forward
to his first Christmas.
Copy !req
473. Soon you'll be begging him to
come home.
Copy !req
474. Enjoy him while he still wants to hang
with his old man.
Copy !req
475. I'll do that. Merry Christmas, Nat.
Copy !req
476. Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
477. Hey, look at that! She's working!
Copy !req
478. - Hey, Mark.
- Hi.
Copy !req
479. - You know if we have any decaf?
- Decaf? What's the point?
Copy !req
480. Carter's grandmother's asking for it.
Copy !req
481. Listen, did you catch that?
What Cynthia said?
Copy !req
482. - What?
- She has a kid.
Copy !req
483. Five-year-old boy. Yeah.
Copy !req
484. Living with her ex-boyfriend's
parents.
Copy !req
485. - Is this the first you've heard of it?
- Bad sign?
Copy !req
486. You're asking me?
Copy !req
487. Doug warned me not to get involved.
Copy !req
488. If she's expecting something of you
you're not willing to give...
Copy !req
489. you're not helping
by dragging it out.
Copy !req
490. I'm not dragging anything out.
Cynthia's great.
Copy !req
491. I thought you were flying home.
Copy !req
492. I postponed to the red-eye.
Allison Beaumont came out of her coma.
Copy !req
493. What's the prognosis?
Copy !req
494. Neurologically she looks good.
Copy !req
495. We did the fibular transfer
on her leg this morning.
Copy !req
496. Congratulations. Good work.
Copy !req
497. Part of me wants to run in there
and confess.
Copy !req
498. Tell her my enthusiasm
for the procedure...
Copy !req
499. put her in a coma in a first place.
Copy !req
500. Look, you saved her leg.
She's out of danger and better off.
Copy !req
501. That's it, isn't it?
Copy !req
502. Purging my guilt will help me
to feel better.
Copy !req
503. It certainly won't help her.
Copy !req
504. Bad things happen to people.
But you did your job.
Copy !req
505. Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
506. Do you know what happened?
Copy !req
507. A guy jumped her at her door.
It wasn't a secure building.
Copy !req
508. You have any leads?
Copy !req
509. She wasn't much help.
It's still a blur.
Copy !req
510. Does the writing make it personal?
Copy !req
511. - Look, Dr...?
- Greene.
Copy !req
512. We can't discuss an investigation.
But we appreciate your concern.
Copy !req
513. We'll handle it from here, okay?
Copy !req
514. Sure, you will.
Copy !req
515. What, did she liquidate a toy store?
Copy !req
516. You know Gamma Mill never comes
empty-handed.
Copy !req
517. - Who are you handing these to?
- Who cares?
Copy !req
518. - As long as it makes her feel good.
- We could try Pediatrics.
Copy !req
519. So did Gramps really overdo it or does
he just have an aversion to hospitals?
Copy !req
520. All men over 70 have an aversion to
hospitals. Don't take it personally.
Copy !req
521. No, it's a relief.
Copy !req
522. I don't have to defend
my wasted life in medicine.
Copy !req
523. Don't think Gamma will report back?
Copy !req
524. It's a stay of execution, then.
Copy !req
525. Probably just wants to wait
and get me on his home turf.
Copy !req
526. He still thinks you're a surgeon.
Copy !req
527. - Yeah, I'm a coward.
- You're braver than I am.
Copy !req
528. John, this Mel Sauderback,
headache, fever, malaise.
Copy !req
529. He needs a spinal tap to
rule out meningitis.
Copy !req
530. Thought I might do it.
Copy !req
531. - He has diarrhea?
- Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
532. It's the stomach flu, Henry.
Copy !req
533. Honestly, continuity of care
is hard to measure.
Copy !req
534. Sometimes you're part caregiver,
part social worker...
Copy !req
535. even part parent sometimes.
Jeanie?
Copy !req
536. I'd like you to meet Millicent Carter.
Copy !req
537. I'm Jeanie Boulet.
Copy !req
538. Jeanie's a physician assistant
helping out in the clinic.
Copy !req
539. Can we scrub the writing
off Mrs. Larkin?
Copy !req
540. - I'll be right there.
- Don't let me keep you.
Copy !req
541. Jeanie, could Mrs. Carter follow you
while you see patients?
Copy !req
542. - Sure.
- Only if they're comfortable.
Copy !req
543. - No problem.
- Great. Thank you.
Copy !req
544. PCO-230, pH 7.4.
Copy !req
545. All good news.
Copy !req
546. How would you like to take that tube
out of your throat?
Copy !req
547. I thought you might.
Copy !req
548. All right.
Copy !req
549. When I tell you, I want you to take
a deep breath in...
Copy !req
550. and blow out hard
as I pull out the tube.
Copy !req
551. Can you do that for me?
Copy !req
552. Okay.
Copy !req
553. Breathe in...
Copy !req
554. and blow.
Copy !req
555. Great. Great. That's better.
Copy !req
556. No, don't try to speak.
Copy !req
557. Tube's been in for over a week.
Your throat needs to adjust.
Copy !req
558. Let me get you some ice chips.
Copy !req
559. Can you ring the head neck surgeon
on call, please?
Copy !req
560. Is it an emergency?
It's Christmas Eve.
Copy !req
561. Just do it, okay?
Copy !req
562. - Gina, have you been tested for HIV?
- No.
Copy !req
563. You should.
Copy !req
564. The boys are all in high school.
They don't have AIDS.
Copy !req
565. That's not true. With your history
of chlamydia, you're at greater risk.
Copy !req
566. - I gotta get home.
- I can draw some blood.
Copy !req
567. No. I'm cool.
Copy !req
568. Gina, look, if you are HIV-positive
and you decide to have this child...
Copy !req
569. you'll want to protect it
against infection.
Copy !req
570. Drugs will help reduce the chances
of passing the virus to your baby.
Copy !req
571. Look, I don't have AIDS. I don't
sleep with gay guys or druggies.
Copy !req
572. Neither did I.
Copy !req
573. - You have AIDS?
- I'm HIV-positive.
Copy !req
574. How long will the test take?
Copy !req
575. - Chuny, someone page me for a consult?
- Not that I know of.
Copy !req
576. Oh, no.
Copy !req
577. He wouldn't calm down
until I called you.
Copy !req
578. - What?
- You won't believe this.
Copy !req
579. He's blind again.
Copy !req
580. No nystagmus with opticokinetic drum.
Copy !req
581. Is that him? Is that Dr. Benton?
Copy !req
582. - What's his name again?
- Bart.
Copy !req
583. I can't see no more, doc.
Copy !req
584. You have to touch me again.
Copy !req
585. Look straight ahead, Bart.
Copy !req
586. You have to touch me, doc. Please?
Copy !req
587. Do like you done before. Touch me.
Copy !req
588. Okay.
Copy !req
589. Try again.
Copy !req
590. Okay, let's get him up for a CT.
Copy !req
591. One more time, doc!
Try it again, please! One more time.
Copy !req
592. I'll dress this. An orthopedist
will look at your ankle...
Copy !req
593. and we'll admit you
for observation.
Copy !req
594. They'll be so disappointed.
Copy !req
595. I'm sorry?
Copy !req
596. I play the organ at church.
Copy !req
597. They always have an organ
for Christmas Mass.
Copy !req
598. I'm sure they'll understand.
Copy !req
599. Probably too late
to find a substitute.
Copy !req
600. You have to stop worrying about Mass.
Copy !req
601. You've been through something
horrible.
Copy !req
602. - I don't want to talk about that.
- You don't have to.
Copy !req
603. It's so hard.
Copy !req
604. I'm so angry.
Copy !req
605. I hate him, whoever he is.
Copy !req
606. There's nothing wrong with that.
Copy !req
607. I can't be like that.
Copy !req
608. I have to forgive.
Copy !req
609. You don't have to forgive anybody.
Copy !req
610. He did this. Not you.
Copy !req
611. Hating him...
Copy !req
612. won't make this go away.
Copy !req
613. I'm afraid nothing'll make it go away.
Copy !req
614. Can you cover my last half-hour?
I gotta do something.
Copy !req
615. - What is it?
- I covered for you this morning.
Copy !req
616. And you have that attending
from Synergix to help.
Copy !req
617. - Sure. I'd be happy to.
- Okay.
Copy !req
618. - Merry Christmas.
- Yeah. Merry Christmas.
Copy !req
619. Hey, you leaving?
Copy !req
620. I gotta do this thing.
Can you take the El home?
Copy !req
621. To your home, right?
Copy !req
622. I don't know. I'm gonna have to
call you later, okay?
Copy !req
623. Okay.
Copy !req
624. I'm sorry I've been so busy.
Did you see anything interesting?
Copy !req
625. It's been a very enlightening
experience.
Copy !req
626. - Anything else you'd like to see?
- I've seen everything I needed to.
Copy !req
627. - May I use your phone?
- Yes, of course.
Copy !req
628. There's a potluck dinner
if you'd like to stay.
Copy !req
629. No, thank you.
Copy !req
630. - Is she upset?
- I'm not sure.
Copy !req
631. Oh, John. I'm ready to leave.
Where's your cousin?
Copy !req
632. Maybe he's still handing out gifts.
Copy !req
633. - Talking about Santa?
- Yeah.
Copy !req
634. He went out for some fresh air.
Copy !req
635. Santa, you in there?
Copy !req
636. - What is this?
- It's nothing.
Copy !req
637. - Nothing?
- Shut the door.
Copy !req
638. Are you crazy?
What do you think you're doing?
Copy !req
639. It's a little stocking stuffer.
Copy !req
640. This isn't funny.
Copy !req
641. - How long you been doing this?
- John, just chill out.
Copy !req
642. I'm not an addict.
I just do it when I'm bored, okay?
Copy !req
643. I cannot believe how stupid I was!
Copy !req
644. A spider bite.
Copy !req
645. That was from skin popping.
You lied to me?
Copy !req
646. - Can you blame me?
- Come on, you're smarter than this.
Copy !req
647. I got it under control.
Copy !req
648. So does every street junkie
coming through here.
Copy !req
649. I am not a street junkie.
And I buy pure stuff.
Copy !req
650. You know, I don't care how pure it is.
Copy !req
651. Thank you for the medical advice,
doctor.
Copy !req
652. But I'd prefer it
if you were just my cousin.
Copy !req
653. Taken to hiding out in cars,
have we?
Copy !req
654. Filling in for Grandfather doesn't
entitle you to his bad habits.
Copy !req
655. I had some work I had to do.
Copy !req
656. Or his excuses.
Copy !req
657. Something the matter?
Copy !req
658. No. I had better get back.
Copy !req
659. Come early tonight.
Your grandfather wants to talk to you.
Copy !req
660. I'll try.
Copy !req
661. That is one nasty-looking
craniopharyngioma.
Copy !req
662. Right here, compressing against
the optic chiasm.
Copy !req
663. That explains the blindness.
Copy !req
664. From its size,
it's been growing for years.
Copy !req
665. How do you account
for temporary sight?
Copy !req
666. - Sometimes the mind plays tricks.
- Head trauma could've caused it?
Copy !req
667. Or maybe it triggered
some visual memory.
Copy !req
668. No, he could see. Trust me.
I was there. I saw it.
Copy !req
669. I don't know what to tell you.
From the evidence in front of me...
Copy !req
670. there's no way he's seen anything
for five or six years.
Copy !req
671. Lizzie? I thought you'd be
over the Atlantic.
Copy !req
672. Slight change of plans.
Copy !req
673. Did I make you miss your flight?
Copy !req
674. No, I just decided on spending
Christmas in Chicago after all.
Copy !req
675. Awesome.
Copy !req
676. I'm on my way to a party.
Copy !req
677. A friend is renting out the entire
top floor of the Prudential Building.
Copy !req
678. You want to come along?
Copy !req
679. Thank you, but no. I'm waiting
on a head-and-neck consult.
Copy !req
680. The Beaumont girl.
Copy !req
681. Yes. I'm afraid her vocal cords
might be paralyzed.
Copy !req
682. Well, don't hold your breath,
on the consult, that is.
Copy !req
683. He's probably on his way to a party
somewhere himself.
Copy !req
684. Just the same.
Copy !req
685. Maybe New Year's Eve.
Copy !req
686. Lovely.
Copy !req
687. Three things to say: Gladys Knight,
Atlantic City, fourth row.
Copy !req
688. What do you want?
Copy !req
689. My friend has tickets for New Year's.
You gotta get someone to cover for me.
Copy !req
690. What're you doing tomorrow?
Copy !req
691. - Is there a Carol Hathaway?
- I'm her.
Copy !req
692. Holiday Design. Delivery for you.
Copy !req
693. - Where is it?
- Outside.
Copy !req
694. - Bring it in.
- It won't fit.
Copy !req
695. - That's a tree!
- Gorgeous.
Copy !req
696. I can't believe they got it
in here.
Copy !req
697. - Sign here.
- Thank you so much.
Copy !req
698. - Merry Christmas.
- Merry Christmas to you too.
Copy !req
699. Who is this from?

700. "Happy Holidays from
the Carter Family Foundation. "
Copy !req
701. - Oh, my God!
- What?
Copy !req
702. - It's a check.
- A hundred and fifty grand!
Copy !req
703. - Oh, my God!
- I guess she liked it here!
Copy !req
704. Hi, I'm Mark Greene.
I'm the doctor-
Copy !req
705. I know who you are.
Copy !req
706. Yes.
Copy !req
707. I'm very sorry for your loss.
Copy !req
708. It's Christmas Eve, Dr. Greene.
Copy !req
709. I know.
Copy !req
710. What the hell you doing here?
Copy !req
711. - I came to apologize.
- I thought you was above all that.
Copy !req
712. - Your uptown lawyer, he blew us off.
- He was wrong.
Copy !req
713. I was wrong.
Copy !req
714. I can't tell you if my assumption about
your brother was racism or experience.
Copy !req
715. Probably both.
Copy !req
716. I can tell you that I used you.
Copy !req
717. It wasn't you.
Copy !req
718. No. Feel better now?
Copy !req
719. Maybe.
Copy !req
720. Can't front though.
Copy !req
721. I was glad when I heard
you got beat down.
Copy !req
722. I wanted you to hurt.
Copy !req
723. But whether you get messed up
or we get a million dollars...
Copy !req
724. my brother's still dead.
Copy !req
725. Some punk dealer shot him.
Copy !req
726. And there's no meaning in that.
Copy !req
727. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
728. Dr. Benton?
Copy !req
729. Yeah. How'd you know?
Copy !req
730. Your shoes squeak.
Copy !req
731. You've come to give me the bad news?
Copy !req
732. You have a very large brain tumor.
Copy !req
733. It's what caused the blindness.
Copy !req
734. It's operable, but because
of the place and size...
Copy !req
735. it's difficult to completely
remove.
Copy !req
736. However, with a little radiation,
there is...
Copy !req
737. a good chance of survival.
Copy !req
738. So I'll be able to see again?
Copy !req
739. Well, once the tumor is extracted,
it's possible...
Copy !req
740. but highly unlikely.
Copy !req
741. It was highly unlikely I'd see today.
Copy !req
742. Medically, that was impossible.
Copy !req
743. I spent all afternoon in the park,
you know?
Copy !req
744. Just watching.
Copy !req
745. Santos playing in the snow...
Copy !req
746. and steam coming up
off the water...
Copy !req
747. and the way snow falls
lightly on the trees.
Copy !req
748. It's beautiful, isn't it?
Copy !req
749. Yeah. I guess so.
Copy !req
750. Trust me...
Copy !req
751. it's beautiful.
Copy !req
752. - Hello.
- Hey! Good day?
Copy !req
753. It ended good.
Guess who got tomorrow off?
Copy !req
754. - Flexed a little muscle?
- I had to give up New Year's.
Copy !req
755. But it's worth it.
Copy !req
756. Oh, no.
Copy !req
757. What?
Copy !req
758. I volunteered to work
for Anna tomorrow.
Copy !req
759. She's an intern.
Copy !req
760. I just thought maybe we'd
spend more time together.
Copy !req
761. - You didn't!
- No, I didn't. That's a lie.
Copy !req
762. - Romantic though, wasn't it?
- Well, yeah.
Copy !req
763. You're looking at what?
Copy !req
764. Come here.
Copy !req
765. Can I have your attention, everybody?
Copy !req
766. Can I have your attention, please?
I have an announcement to make.
Copy !req
767. Turn down that music.
Copy !req
768. Okay. I've kept this a secret
far too long.
Copy !req
769. Doug Ross and I are
seeing each other again.
Copy !req
770. Yeah?
Copy !req
771. - And we're very happy.
- Okay, pay up, pay up.
Copy !req
772. I was a week too late.
I thought New Year's.
Copy !req
773. I'm surprised they kept it
a secret this long.
Copy !req
774. - You knew?
- Please, it was obvious.
Copy !req
775. - I didn't know.
- Me either.
Copy !req
776. Maybe something that you guys
didn't know is that...
Copy !req
777. we've been seeing each other
for a little while now, again...
Copy !req
778. and I think it would be great
if she were to marry me.
Copy !req
779. Help me talk her into it.
Copy !req
780. To Carol and Doug.
Get it right this time.
Copy !req
781. Congratulations!
Copy !req
782. Yeah, hear, hear!
Copy !req
783. - You always have to outdo me.
- I had the opportunity and I took it.
Copy !req
784. - Congratulations, I'm happy for you.
- Thank you.
Copy !req
785. Let's move this party outside.
Copy !req
786. - You gonna stay till I get off work?
- Hell, no.
Copy !req
787. Meet me at the airport
or I'll take you myself.
Copy !req
788. I didn't pack my bathing suit.
Copy !req
789. Don't worry. I know a private beach.
Copy !req
790. - Merry Christmas, Kerry.
- Yeah. You too.
Copy !req
791. - So you got plans tonight?
- Yeah, I plan to be alone.
Copy !req
792. You want some company?
Copy !req
793. Don't you have a family obligation?
Copy !req
794. I've had enough family for one day.
Copy !req
795. John?
Copy !req
796. Listen, I got the blood gas
on the asthmatic in 3.
Copy !req
797. Only took me two sticks.
Copy !req
798. Put it on ice
and run it up to the lab.
Copy !req
799. - Okay.
- Hey, Henry!
Copy !req
800. - Merry Christmas.
- John, I didn't get you anything.
Copy !req
801. It's your evaluation.
Congratulations!
Copy !req
802. You just passed Emergency Medicine.
Copy !req
803. I don't know what to say.
Copy !req
804. Do me a favor?
Stick to brain research.
Copy !req
805. I promise.
Copy !req
806. I will. Thank you, John.
Thank you.
Copy !req
807. - Okay.
- Okay. Thank you.
