6. I'm gonna help you. I'm gonna help you,
but you gotta stick with me!Copy !req
7. But delaying the vote isn't an option.Copy !req
8. I can't support something
I don't believe in.Copy !req

keep you on nights?Copy !req
18. Her exact words were
"until hell freezes over. "Copy !req
19. I've been meaning to talk to her
about it.Copy !req
20. Would I look good in that cut?Copy !req
21. Honestly? No.Copy !req
22. What is the best approach with Weaver?Copy !req
23. - Contrition, indignation...?
- Begging.Copy !req
24. I think I would just appeal to
her innate sense of fairness.Copy !req
25. She has a sense of fairness?Copy !req
26. - Remind her you've been on nights for...
- Four months.Copy !req
27. and that you think
your exemplary work history...Copy !req
28. and your years of loyal service,
marred by only one incident...Copy !req
29. Blowing up the ambulance bay.Copy !req
30. makes it incumbent upon her to bring
you back to the land of the living.Copy !req
31. I still say beg.Copy !req
32. Hey, Anna's on?Copy !req
33. Yeah. She's in Exam 4, sleeping.Copy !req
34. Yo, Carter.Copy !req
35. Nice throw!Copy !req

71. He's a security guard.
He interrupted a rape.Copy !req

We had to dig the rig out in Halsted.Copy !req

75. Rape victim's still on the scene.
Unit 57 has her.Copy !req
76. She must've been 70. Unbelievable.Copy !req
77. - How's the old woman?
- She's in rough shape.Copy !req
78. But it looks like he stopped her
from getting raped.Copy !req
79. - Got the blood.
- They catch the rapist?Copy !req
80. No. But cops are looking.
This guy might've shot him.Copy !req
81. Chest tube's in.Copy !req
82. Okay, good. Call the O.R.
and tell them we're on our way.Copy !req
83. - More blood?
- No. Save it.Copy !req
84. Have Respiratory meet us with a vent.Copy !req
85. - Maybe they'll catch him.

114. Damn it!Copy !req
115. Left ventricle's shredded.
How many units in?Copy !req
116. - Three, fourth one's up.

- Morning.Copy !req
125. You're in early.Copy !req
126. I was anxious to hear the outcome
of last night's SPG vote.Copy !req
127. After careful consideration
and due in no small part...Copy !req
128. to your glowing recommendation...Copy !req
129. the board will begin negotiations
with SPG...Copy !req
130. for an emergency department
management contract.Copy !req
131. I'm sorry to hear that.Copy !req
132. You have placed me
in a very awkward position, Kerry.Copy !req
133. I went to the board at your urging.Copy !req
134. Any misgivings you had about SPG
should've been aired weeks ago.Copy !req
135. If we reverse our position now...Copy !req
136. we are going to look
very foolish indeed.Copy !req
137. I take it you have misgivings.Copy !req
138. Yes, I do.Copy !req
139. The board was anxious to know
if the senior...Copy !req
140. ER staff was supportive of the idea.
You assured me they were.Copy !req
141. If you were incorrect
in that assessment...Copy !req
142. and wish to admit that
before the board...Copy !req
143. that might carry some weight.Copy !req
144. You want me to fall on my sword
in front of the board of directors.Copy !req
145. It is your sword, Kerry.Copy !req
146. So my lease is up February 1 st-Copy !req
147. - Are you okay?
- Yeah. Thanks, Mark.Copy !req
148. Jerry, get some mud mats here before
someone slips and kills themselves.Copy !req
149. Anyway, they want me to move
or sign a new lease for six months.Copy !req
150. I was month-to-month, but now they-Copy !req
151. - Three patients?
- It'll pick up when it stops snowing.Copy !req
152. Yeah, all those sick people
sitting at home...Copy !req
153. waiting to rush in and ruin
our perfectly good slow day.Copy !req
154. 57's on their way
with the rape victim.Copy !req
155. It seems silly for me
to be paying rent...Copy !req
156. especially when I'm spending
every night at your place.Copy !req
157. Jerry, get mud mats down before
somebody slips and kills themselves.Copy !req
158. - Can I talk to you a little later?
- Yeah, sure.Copy !req
159. How much is your rent?Copy !req
160. 450 now. But they want to
raise it to $500.Copy !req
161. I could probably help you out
with that.Copy !req
162. Oh. No, that's not what-Copy !req
163. You want to talk about this at dinner?Copy !req
164. - I made you feel uncomfortable.
- You didn't.Copy !req
165. - I have to get these up to the lab.
- Right.Copy !req
166. - What?
- Nothing.Copy !req
167. Randi called. She's snowed in.Copy !req
168. Perfect.Copy !req
169. Dr. Weaver, can I talk to you
for a minute?Copy !req
170. I've been working nights
for months now.Copy !req
171. And while I appreciate
that the accidental damage...Copy !req
172. that I inflicted on the ER
cannot be dismissed...Copy !req
173. as inconsequential
nor insignificant...Copy !req
174. I do, however, believe that
my eight years of loyal service...Copy !req
175. along with my sterling attendance
record and my seniority...Copy !req
176. all demand that I get
my old day shift back.Copy !req
177. Is that it?Copy !req
178. I'm also appealing to
your innate sense of fairness.Copy !req
179. Can you work Randi's shift today?Copy !req
180. Pull a double? I'd love to.Copy !req
181. Fine. You're on days again.Copy !req
182. Anybody see Carter?Copy !req
183. - He went over to Doc's a while ago.
- God, I'm starving.Copy !req
184. Anna, breakfast is served.Copy !req
185. Oh, my God, John!Copy !req
186. Are you okay? You okay?Copy !req
187. Man, that smarts!Copy !req
188. Damn it, Jerry,
get those mud mats out here now.Copy !req

217. - How's the hangover?
- Painful.Copy !req
218. - No hard feelings, I hope.
- No, of course not.Copy !req
219. I'm really sorry.Copy !req
220. There's a novelty shop
down the street from my flat.Copy !req
221. You know, magic tricks,
rubber bugs, black soap.Copy !req
222. - I love that stuff, don't you?
- Not really.Copy !req
223. Oh. Sorry.Copy !req
224. Why are you so late?
It's not like you.Copy !req
225. Carla wants to put Reece in daycare.
He's not even a year.Copy !req
226. You won't get much sympathy from me.Copy !req
227. My mom gave me to a nurse
after I was born and went...Copy !req
228. to Spain for three weeks.Copy !req
229. It was nannies after that and
boarding school by the time I was 5.Copy !req

249. I mean, he's your best friend, right?Copy !req
250. Mark? Yeah. He's-Copy !req
251. I don't understand.Copy !req
252. We have great times together.Copy !req
253. We laugh. We enjoy each other.Copy !req

255. I know that I make him happy.
I know I do. I can tell.Copy !req

these mixed signals.Copy !req
257. Well, I mean- We have-
Have you-?Copy !req
258. Have you talked to him?Copy !req
259. Yeah, I talk about it to him
lots of times, but he just avoids it.Copy !req
260. We usually end up having
sex instead, though.Copy !req
261. Is it me?Copy !req
262. Does he think that maybe I'm not
good enough for him? Is that it?Copy !req
263. Or is he just...?Copy !req
264. Is he just scared because
he cares so much?Copy !req
265. Okay, let's bag her.Copy !req

279. Send a blood gas from CT.Copy !req
280. And repeat a chest x-ray
when she gets back here.Copy !req
281. How's she doing?Copy !req
282. Well, her vitals are normal.
They put her hip back in.Copy !req
283. I'll get our stuff back to the rig.Copy !req

Join the modern world.Copy !req
301. I'm gonna do these in Sutures
if anybody needs me.Copy !req
302. Dr. Ross?Copy !req
303. Pedes is short-staffed.Copy !req
304. Can you look at a newborn in OB?Copy !req
305. - Yeah, fine.
- Thanks.Copy !req
306. See you later.Copy !req
307. Doug. Doug, come on.Copy !req
308. Is that the guy?Copy !req
309. We were talking. He was upset.Copy !req
310. Another elderly rape victim came in.
I was trying to calm him down.Copy !req
311. Was that the guy?Copy !req
312. Yes. That's the guy.Copy !req
313. But I'm not seeing him or anything.Copy !req
314. You can't commit, fine.
You want to screw firemen, fine.Copy !req
315. Don't humiliate me
in front of my friends.Copy !req
316. Humiliate you?Copy !req
317. What about the surgical tech
in the on-call room?Copy !req
318. - The Pedes nurse?
- Ancient history.Copy !req
319. How about the drug rep with
fake breasts and big hair?Copy !req
320. - Ancient history.
- I'd have to do the entire Bulls lineup...Copy !req
321. before I equaled you.Copy !req
322. Is this about getting even for things
I did a long time ago?Copy !req
323. This is about me needing some time...Copy !req
324. and you being pissed that things
aren't working out as planned.Copy !req
325. I have spent years,
years of my life...Copy !req
326. changing to fit your needs,
working around your schedules...Copy !req
327. your insecurities,
your inabilities to commit.Copy !req
328. Well, you know what?
It's not all about you.Copy !req
329. I know that may come as a shock.Copy !req
330. But a relationship is give and take.Copy !req
331. Two people as equals,
and right now I need something.Copy !req
332. So you can grow up and accept it,
or you can go on being the same...Copy !req
333. self-centered bastard
you've always been...Copy !req
334. and refuse to give me
the one thing I've ever asked you for.Copy !req
335. Mark, we're precariously short
of blood.Copy !req
336. I'm gonna ask the staff to volunteer,
rotate our people upstairs to donate.Copy !req
337. - We don't have many patients anyway.
- Sounds smart.Copy !req
338. The board voted yesterday to begin
negotiations with Synergix...Copy !req
339. to take over management of the ER.Copy !req
340. Congratulations.
It's what you wanted, right?Copy !req
341. Yes and no. I've had disturbing
reports from other hospitals...Copy !req
342. about their
cross-control techniques.Copy !req
343. Did you talk to Anspaugh?Copy !req
344. He felt that if all the ER
Attendings opposed the decision...Copy !req
345. that would help scuttle the deal.Copy !req
346. But won't that make us look
ridiculous? We recommended it.Copy !req
347. But the heat doesn't fall
on any one person...Copy !req
348. if we all go to the board together.Copy !req
349. I've started contacting
the other Attendings.Copy !req
350. And I was hoping that I could
count on your support.Copy !req
351. Show me the statistics
and I'll let you know.Copy !req
352. Great, thanks.
Mark, cops caught that rapist.Copy !req
353. GSW to the chest.
Paramedics are bringing him.Copy !req

356. Malik, prep Trauma 2
and alert Surgery.Copy !req
357. Come on, people.Copy !req
358. There's no evidence of penetration.Copy !req
359. Thank God for small favors.Copy !req
360. Who does something like this?Copy !req
361. I don't know. I hope they find
the guy that did this.Copy !req
362. They should shoot him and toss
his body in the dumpster.Copy !req
363. How's it going?Copy !req
364. Great.Copy !req
365. Really?Copy !req
366. Cynthia cried on my shoulder for
an hour. What's that all about?Copy !req
367. - Her lease is up.

368. - Not particularly.
- Fine.Copy !req
369. - How's Carol?
- She talk to you about it?Copy !req
370. - About what?
- Nothing.Copy !req
371. We have a nasty MVA on the Kennedy.Copy !req
372. And a family in a minivan
hit an overpass.Copy !req
373. And that rapist is here.Copy !req
374. You should talk.Copy !req
375. Two IVs in...Copy !req
376. no pulse, large-caliber GSW

380. We'll leave him on
the paramedic gurney. Who's up?Copy !req
381. Carter.Copy !req
382. No breath sounds.Copy !req
383. - The rapist?
- One of you get him?Copy !req
384. He was hiding. The dogs found him.Copy !req
385. Too bad they called the dogs off.Copy !req
386. Another 20 minutes would've
saved us the trouble.Copy !req
387. Got a rhythm.Copy !req
388. - Should I set up another drip?
- Nope.Copy !req
389. - What's going on, Dr. Carter?
- PEA.Copy !req
390. Yeah. What's the differential?Copy !req
391. Hypovolemia, hypoxia,
tension pneumo...Copy !req
392. pulmonary embolism,

396. Like every other patient,
he gets our best effort.Copy !req
397. Dr. Carter?Copy !req
398. Amp of epi, IV push
and a milligram of atropine.Copy !req
399. You heard him. Let's go.Copy !req
400. - What about an airway?
- Yeah. He needs one.Copy !req
401. Let's put one in.Copy !req
402. Mark, that MVA is here.
The mother's in trouble.Copy !req
403. I'll be right there.Copy !req
404. - Malik, you're with me.
- Thank God!Copy !req
405. Call me if you need anything.Copy !req
406. She threw up last night.Copy !req
407. No. Only a little bit.Copy !req
408. I ate some Saltines like my sister
told me to. That usually works.Copy !req
409. Do you throw up often?Copy !req
410. I always eat the Saltines
and then it goes away.Copy !req
411. Last night she ate a whole thing
of Cherry Garcia.Copy !req
412. Cherry Garcia is my favorite too.Copy !req
413. Are you having them again?
Have you had these pains before?Copy !req
414. Sometimes I hurt a little bit,
but it goes away.Copy !req
415. They just keep coming back.Copy !req
416. Coming back how often?Copy !req
417. When? How many? Eight?Copy !req
418. During Kathie Lee
about eight or nine times.Copy !req
419. Okay. I want you to just lie back
and I'm gonna take a quick look.Copy !req
420. - Am I okay?
- You just relax.Copy !req
421. Legs apart. Good.Copy !req
422. Okay. All right.Copy !req
423. - She's seven centimeters.
- I'll get the fetal monitor.Copy !req
424. Just keep breathing.Copy !req
425. - Weak pulse.
- No breath sounds on the left.Copy !req
426. Neck veins are dilated.Copy !req
427. - Tension pneumo?
- Sounds about right.Copy !req
428. 32 French.Copy !req
429. - What are you doing?
- Central line. He'll need volume.Copy !req
430. The victim's coming to.
You guys want to talk to her?Copy !req
431. Damn it!Copy !req
432. He's losing a lot of blood here.Copy !req
433. - You want me to go get Mark?
- Nope.Copy !req
434. He's bleeding out. He's already
lost a liter. He needs blood.Copy !req
435. - How many units O-neg do we have?
- This is it. Four units.Copy !req
436. - Let's autotransfuse him.
- You're kidding.Copy !req
437. - Use his own blood?
- Hook up the cell saver.Copy !req
438. - He needs a transfusion.
- He'll get one.Copy !req
439. There's not enough.
It's all over the floor.Copy !req
440. This'll be fine.Copy !req
441. - He needs blood.
- And he'll get it!Copy !req
442. Hook it up to the central line.
Wide open.Copy !req
443. Shooting.Copy !req
444. AP pelvis next. Call me when
you're ready. I'll be next door.Copy !req
445. How's he doing?Copy !req
446. He has a massive hemothorax
from the gunshot wound.Copy !req
447. Possibly to the pulmonary artery.Copy !req
448. We autotransfused him from
the Thora-Seal. BP's at 80 palp.Copy !req
449. No kidding, you autotransfused?Copy !req
450. Alerted the O.R.
I think he's stable enough to travel.Copy !req
451. Then let's send him up.Copy !req
452. - Anna, you coming?
- No. Thanks. Carter's got it.Copy !req
453. Overweight 62-year-old
shoveling 2 feet of wet snow.Copy !req
454. I wonder why he's having an Ml.Copy !req
455. Word is you're mustering opposition
to SPG among the ER Attendings.Copy !req
456. I have to do what is right.Copy !req
457. - The board approved the deal.
- Maybe they can be dissuaded.Copy !req
458. Come back here.
Come here. Come here.Copy !req
459. Now, I've put months of work
into this already.Copy !req
460. You should've addressed
concerns weeks ago.Copy !req
461. You should've been more forthcoming...Copy !req
462. about your cost-containment
strategies.Copy !req
463. We're a public company.Copy !req
464. Whatever we do is spelled out in
our literature. Did you read that?Copy !req
465. I couldn't find it
in all the rosy profit predictions...Copy !req
466. and glossy photos
of satisfied patients.Copy !req
467. You're the one that wants to turn this
ER into a cost-effective operation.Copy !req
468. You couldn't anticipate what
would be needed to make it profitable?Copy !req
469. I'm willing to make hard choices,
Ellis.Copy !req
470. I'm not willing to endanger patients.Copy !req
471. You're questioning my ethics
as a physician?Copy !req
472. I'm not sure. Maybe.
Hang on, Carol.Copy !req
473. You used me.
That's what we've been about.Copy !req
474. You used me to get this deal.
I don't like being used!Copy !req
475. You underestimated me once.
And you were right to.Copy !req
476. But don't underestimate me again.
I'll see you at the board.Copy !req
477. Are you okay?Copy !req
478. The patient, Carol.Copy !req
479. 27-year-old woman, 35 weeks.Copy !req
480. Seven centimeters dilated.
Fully effaced.Copy !req
481. Get her up to OB.Copy !req
482. She won't go. She's scared
they'll take her baby away.Copy !req
483. What?Copy !req
484. She's retarded. She wants to leave.
I treated her at the clinic.Copy !req
485. I think she'll stay
if we keep her down here.Copy !req
486. I'm going home.Copy !req
487. You can't go home.
You're having a baby.Copy !req
488. Robert, where are my shoes?Copy !req
489. Mary, hi. I'm Dr. Weaver.
Where are you going?Copy !req
490. Mary, sit down here and let
Dr. Weaver examine you, okay?Copy !req
491. If you go home it could be
very bad for your baby.Copy !req
492. You love your baby and you don't want
anything bad to happen, right?Copy !req
493. So let me look, and we can
talk about what we should do.Copy !req
494. Please? For your baby?Copy !req
495. Good. Jeanie, let's- Here we go.
- get her on a fetal monitor.Copy !req
496. And that's so we can check
your baby's heart.Copy !req
497. - Is it a boy or a girl?
- A girl.Copy !req
498. How exciting.Copy !req
499. And why are you afraid to go upstairs
to have your baby?Copy !req
500. They'll take her.Copy !req
501. Why will they take her?Copy !req
502. That's what Judy said.Copy !req
503. - Who's Judy?
- Her sister.Copy !req
504. Nine centimeters.Copy !req
505. - Do you live with your sister?
- No. We live at 5214 East Chestnut.Copy !req
506. We don't take babies with
such nice parents.Copy !req
507. So why don't you stay here with us?Copy !req
508. And we'll make sure
everything's going okay.Copy !req
509. When did it stop snowing?Copy !req
510. I didn't know that it had.Copy !req
511. Only the finest culinary offerings
from the 3rd floor vending machine.Copy !req
512. Tuna or cheese?Copy !req
513. I didn't know if you were
a truly fanatical vegan...Copy !req
514. or whether seafood's allowed to
pass your lips every so often.Copy !req
515. Cheese, please.Copy !req
516. A true believer.Copy !req
517. I must say I do enjoy a good hunk
of rare meat every so often.Copy !req
518. How long's it been since you've had
something really juicy?Copy !req
519. I don't know. Six years.Copy !req
520. I thought as much.Copy !req
521. - Egg?
- No.Copy !req
522. - Pity.
- No. I eat eggs. I just...Copy !req
523. I just...Copy !req
524. I've had a thought.Copy !req
525. I have no family here. No ties.Copy !req
526. No time.Copy !req
527. You have the baby, but not much else.Copy !req
528. And with our schedules,
it makes it almost impossible to...Copy !req
529. date or even really meet someone...Copy !req
530. much less anything approaching
a real relationship.Copy !req
531. So I was thinking.Copy !req
532. We're both adults...Copy !req
533. attractive...Copy !req
534. we enjoy each other.Copy !req
535. Why not?Copy !req
536. I won't disappoint.Copy !req
537. I've made you blush.Copy !req
538. I don't think I'd be
comfortable with that.Copy !req
539. That's a pity.Copy !req
540. I heard the rapist made it.
Good job, Carter.Copy !req
541. Anybody seen Doug? I'll need a
pediatrician to check out a newborn.Copy !req
542. He's up at Pedes.
I'll page him.Copy !req
543. - I'm around if you can't find him.
- Thanks.Copy !req
544. - You ever get anything to eat?
- I lost my appetite, thanks.Copy !req
545. I'm looking for my sister,
Mary Cochran. She's having a baby.Copy !req
546. Hi. Yes, she sure is.
I'm Carol Hathaway. Come with me.Copy !req
547. - Is she all right?
- She's doing great. Not long now.Copy !req
548. Can I see her?Copy !req
549. Sure. I have to ask her first.Copy !req
550. Hi, Mary. How you doing?
I'm back.Copy !req
551. - She's crowning.
- Keep pushing.Copy !req
552. - Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, 10.
- Oh, boy! Oh, boy!Copy !req
553. Good. Good. Now don't push.Copy !req
554. - This is hard.
- You're doing great.Copy !req
555. She's ROA. How you doing, Robert?
You're not gonna faint, are you?Copy !req
556. I'm okay.Copy !req
557. Somebody get Robert a chair just
in case he feels like sitting down.Copy !req
558. - Your sister's outside, Mary.
- Judy?Copy !req
559. - She wants to know if she can come in.
- Yes.Copy !req
560. - Carol, can you give me a hand?
- Yep.Copy !req
561. All right, Mary.Copy !req
562. - Just one more time.
- I'm here, honey.Copy !req
563. All right. Let's give it
everything you got, okay?Copy !req
564. One, two, three, four, five...Copy !req
565. six, seven, eight, nine-Copy !req
566. - There she is!
- I see the head! Look at that hair!Copy !req
567. Oh, wow!Copy !req
568. Looks like you need someone
with pediatric experience.Copy !req
569. Oh, look. She's beautiful.Copy !req
570. Okay, Mary, this is just
the last little bit.Copy !req
571. She's out!Copy !req
572. Oh, my God!Copy !req
573. Oh, my God!Copy !req
574. Welcome to the world, Madison.Copy !req
575. Is she okay?Copy !req
576. Yeah, 10 fingers and 10 toes.Copy !req
577. Okay, Dad, get in here
and cut the cord.Copy !req
578. Come on, Robert, you can do it.Copy !req
579. - There?
- That's the spot there.Copy !req
580. Good.Copy !req
581. Good.Copy !req
582. She's so small.Copy !req
583. Hello, baby.Copy !req
584. Hello, little baby.Copy !req
585. Ten units Pitocin IV.Copy !req
586. Thank you.Copy !req
587. Thank you so much.Copy !req
588. Thank you so much.Copy !req
589. You're welcome.Copy !req
590. Is the baby okay mentally?Copy !req
591. Well, it's too soon to tell.
But she seems fine, alert.Copy !req
592. There's no reason to think
she won't be perfectly normal.Copy !req
593. When do the social workers come?Copy !req
594. They don't.Copy !req
595. We don't call Social Services when
there are two loving adult parents.Copy !req
596. You seem nice, so I hope
you won't think me rude.Copy !req
597. Do you have the training
to assess that?Copy !req
598. They're doing fine with the baby.Copy !req
599. They have their own apartment.
Robert works.Copy !req
600. Robert is the janitor at
his uncle's muffler repair shop.Copy !req
601. They don't drive because they don't
read well enough to pass the test.Copy !req
602. They have a place, but I do their bills
and remind them to do their laundry.Copy !req
603. They are sweet, loving people,
but they can't care for an infant.Copy !req
604. Do you think you're qualified
to make that assessment?Copy !req
605. You know, I wish that I weren't.Copy !req
606. I can't tell you how much
I wish that I weren't.Copy !req
607. Did you get a chance to look over
those Synergix reports?Copy !req
608. - Not very encouraging.
- You're with me?Copy !req
609. Whatever you think's best.Copy !req
610. Would somebody
please answer the phone?Copy !req
611. - ER.
- The board meets next Tuesday.Copy !req
612. Can I count on you to be there?Copy !req
613. If I don't have to speak.Copy !req
614. Why isn't anybody answering the phone?
Where is Cynthia?Copy !req
615. Cynthia left hours ago.
She seemed upset.Copy !req
616. - She left?
- Yeah.Copy !req
617. Jerry? Jerry? Jerry!Copy !req
618. - What?
- Answer the damn phone!Copy !req
619. The blood's here from O'Hare.
The blood bank's restocked.Copy !req
620. I was looking for you upstairs.Copy !req
621. I had a hot appendix turn out to be
unrefrigerated 3-day-old pizza.Copy !req
622. - Do you have the forms?
- Hold on. Where's Reece?Copy !req
623. - In the car.
- You left him in the car?Copy !req
624. He's with a friend.Copy !req
625. Dafina? Carla, she better
not be smoking.Copy !req
626. Peter, did you sign the forms?Copy !req
627. I'm sorry. I've been working all day.Copy !req
628. I need those forms so Reece
can start on Monday.Copy !req
629. - Monday?
- Yes!Copy !req
630. Are you gonna sign them?Copy !req
631. I don't know. I was
checking out other alternatives.Copy !req
632. - Forget it. Just forget it.
- What?Copy !req
633. Look, I'm not convinced this is
the best thing for the baby.Copy !req
634. Thanks for the vote of confidence.Copy !req
635. I deserve more than one day
to decide.Copy !req
636. Fine. Take a week, a month.
Hell, take six.Copy !req
637. Just tell me what's right for my life.Copy !req
638. It's not just your decision to make.Copy !req
639. Peter.Copy !req
640. Wait! Where do you think
you're going?Copy !req
641. To see my son. He's in the car.Copy !req
642. Peter, get back inside.Copy !req
643. What? Is Dafina in here
smoking again?Copy !req
644. Come by later. You can see him then.Copy !req
645. Peter Benton, Roger McGrath.Copy !req
646. Roger McGrath, Peter Benton.Copy !req
647. Roger, will you put Reece
in the car seat, please?Copy !req
648. Peter, I've been meaning to
talk to you about this.Copy !req
649. He works with Chandra over at the CTA.Copy !req
650. He's steady. I mean, he's smart...Copy !req
651. and Reece loves him.Copy !req
652. All in. You take care now.Copy !req
653. If you want to talk about this later,
give me a call, okay?Copy !req
654. Hey, Scoot.Copy !req
655. Hey, Chase.Copy !req
656. You asked me to drop by today.Copy !req
657. Oh, right. Right. Right.
How are you feeling?Copy !req
658. I've been better.Copy !req
659. Nothing some crank and a half gallon
of Stoli's wouldn't fix.Copy !req
660. - It was a joke.
- That's not very funny.Copy !req
661. Hang out for a sec.
There's a patient I don't want to miss.Copy !req
662. - Hey, Anna.
- Hi there, Chase. How are you?Copy !req
663. Oh, great.
Never better, thanks to you.Copy !req
664. Your cousin did all the work.Copy !req
665. When do you get off work?
I could take you and Anna to dinner.Copy !req
666. Actually, I've gotta run.Copy !req
667. Maybe some other time. Take care.Copy !req
668. Trouble in paradise?Copy !req
669. Something like that.Copy !req
670. Are you gonna go after her?Copy !req
671. If you don't, I will.Copy !req
672. - Have you seen Carol?
- She's down the hall.Copy !req
673. A retarded couple had a baby
this afternoon.Copy !req
674. She's teaching them
how to change diapers.Copy !req
675. No kidding?Copy !req
676. A little girl.Copy !req
677. Six pounds, seven ounces.
Name's Madison. Seems fine.Copy !req
678. Good for her.Copy !req
679. Listen, Cynthia left early.Copy !req
680. Chuny said she was upset.Copy !req
681. I'm going to talk to her.Copy !req
682. - I know what I'm doing, Doug.
- If you say so.Copy !req
683. We saved that rapist today.Copy !req
684. Hell of a world, huh?Copy !req
685. Yeah. I'll see you later.Copy !req
686. Anna. Anna!Copy !req
687. What the hell's the matter with you?Copy !req
688. Go back inside.
You'll freeze your ass off out here.Copy !req
689. I don't understand.
This morning everything was great.Copy !req
690. I'm tired. I was on all night.
Let's just call it a day, okay?Copy !req
691. - Is this about that rapist?
- You know what this is about.Copy !req
692. No, I don't.Copy !req
693. Why didn't you use the blood on hand?Copy !req
694. - It's all we had.
- So?Copy !req
695. We used six units on that guard.Copy !req
696. We were short
and you didn't even blink.Copy !req
697. Why not use the blood on the kid?Copy !req
698. Autotransfusion was
the best course of action.Copy !req
699. Oh, please!
We could've done a thoracotomy.Copy !req
700. We could've pumped in blood
on the rapid infuser.Copy !req
701. Yeah. Well, he lived.
He's in Recovery.Copy !req
702. Dumb luck!Copy !req
703. You are one of the most aggressive
physicians I have ever seen in Trauma.Copy !req
704. And you autotransfuse him?Copy !req
705. You didn't want to waste the blood.
You didn't care if he lived or died.Copy !req
706. It's my trauma. It's my call.Copy !req
707. Would you do it differently
if he wasn't a rapist?Copy !req
708. Come on. Every case is different.Copy !req
709. Did you withhold treatment
from that kid?Copy !req
710. No.Copy !req
711. John, did you withhold treatment?Copy !req
712. No.Copy !req
713. Fancy meeting you here.Copy !req
714. Listen...Copy !req
715. you feel like hitting darts?Copy !req
716. Just darts?Copy !req
717. Yeah. Just darts.Copy !req
718. I mean, if that's okay.Copy !req
719. Don't know what you're missing.Copy !req
720. I've got a pretty good idea.Copy !req
721. As long as I'm not being
unappreciated.Copy !req
722. You know, darts usually
involves wagering...Copy !req
723. of a rather substantial nature.Copy !req
724. All right. A penny a point.Copy !req
725. I'm withdrawing the contract.Copy !req
726. I told Anspaugh that Synergix is
no longer interested...Copy !req
727. in managing County's ER.Copy !req
728. Why'd you do that?Copy !req
729. I only wanted the contract if it meant
working closely with you, Kerry.Copy !req
730. Apparently, that's not
possible anymore.Copy !req
731. You are a smart...Copy !req
732. beautiful, sexy woman.Copy !req
733. I don't want you believing
that I used you, because I didn't.Copy !req
734. And I never underestimated you.Copy !req
735. Never once.Copy !req
736. You underestimate yourself.Copy !req
737. Take care.Copy !req
738. So you fold under...Copy !req
739. you fold up...Copy !req
740. and you fold over...Copy !req
741. just like that, okay?Copy !req
742. Now you try.Copy !req
743. Fold up.Copy !req
744. Fold over.Copy !req
745. That's good. Try it again.Copy !req
746. Looks like they're doing great.Copy !req
747. Yeah. So why is it so hard for us?Copy !req
748. I don't know.Copy !req
749. I didn't mean to push.Copy !req
750. Take as much time as you need.Copy !req
751. I'll wait.Copy !req
752. How long you been sitting here?Copy !req
753. About an hour...Copy !req
754. give or take.Copy !req
755. I wanted him to die.Copy !req
756. I saw what he did to that old lady...Copy !req
757. and the others before,
and I wanted him to die.Copy !req
758. I didn't think he should
have that blood.Copy !req
759. I mean, if somebody'd come in
and they really needed it...Copy !req
760. If some little kid had been
hit by a car...Copy !req
761. or some guy had been shot...Copy !req
762. if someone like that had died...Copy !req
763. because we wasted
the blood on that guy...Copy !req
764. I don't know.Copy !req
765. It was my decision.Copy !req
766. And I made it.Copy !req
767. If he'd died, I don't know
how I'd feel.Copy !req
768. But I can't say that I'm sorry.Copy !req
769. I mean, was it wrong?Copy !req
770. Anna, are you sure?Copy !req
771. No.Copy !req
772. I'm not sure.Copy !req
