1. ERCopy !req
2. Previously, on ER...Copy !req
3. Dr. Green, excuse me!Copy !req
4. I've done quite a few more
ER procedures than she has.Copy !req
5. I used to sell vitamins over the phone.Copy !req
6. That's kind of
in the health field, isn't it?Copy !req
7. You just want your boy
to have your last name.Copy !req
8. So, what's wrong?Copy !req
9. - How's your busy social calendar?
- It's not as busy.Copy !req
10. This is Elizabeth Corday,
new surgical resident.Copy !req
11. It's a pleasure.Copy !req
12. Maybe it would be best if I stepped in
and took over some of the...Copy !req
13. administrative duties
while you're recuperating.Copy !req
14. God bless you, Kerry Weaver.Copy !req
15. - You got the job.
- What?Copy !req
16. "Freindly Fire"Copy !req
17. Hold it. Hold it!Copy !req
18. Thanks.Copy !req
19. - It's five minutes by car.
- 15 minutes on the El.Copy !req
20. - You're not enjoying this?
- No. Should I?Copy !req
21. It's a secret romance.
It's what sells bad novels.Copy !req
22. This shouldn't be a bad novel.Copy !req
23. That's my train.Copy !req
24. - Yeah, get that. See you at work.
- Bye.Copy !req
25. He continues to gain weight
and he's spending more time awake.Copy !req
26. - What about his lungs?
- He's down to a quarter liter.Copy !req
27. - So when can he come home?
- I'd say a week or less.Copy !req
28. You hear that, pumpkin?
You're gonna come home in a week.Copy !req
29. Isn't that premature?
What about his immune system?Copy !req
30. I think there's more risk of
nosocomial infection here.Copy !req
31. Should he be circumcised
before he comes home?Copy !req
32. That's what my mother told me.Copy !req
33. Dr. Tabash and I decided against it.Copy !req
34. Isn't it healthier?Copy !req
35. Some studies indicate that
circumcision prevents UTls...Copy !req
36. and may reduce the risk of cancer.Copy !req
37. Yeah, I don't find
those studies conclusive.Copy !req
38. I'll just teach him proper hygiene.Copy !req
39. I don't wanna take any risk.Copy !req
40. Dr. Tabash, what about immunization?Copy !req
41. After discharge.
With OPV he could shed virus.Copy !req
42. I don't want the immuno-suppressed
children here at risk.Copy !req
43. I got a thymectomy.Copy !req
44. Peter, what about the circumcision?Copy !req
45. Honey, he doesn't need one.Copy !req
46. - Morning, Doug.
- Mark.Copy !req
47. You don't wear scrubs
to work anymore?Copy !req
48. I got tired of having people hit me up
for a diagnosis in line at Starbucks.Copy !req
49. Dr. Greene, there's an explosive
diarrhea in Exam 4.Copy !req
50. - What's Weaver doing?
- She's not in yet.Copy !req
51. See if Del Amico can take it.Copy !req
52. - They made me pay $ 1000-
- Shut up!Copy !req
53. The decision to appoint you
Acting Chief of Emergency Services...Copy !req
54. did not come simply because
Dr. Morgenstern recommended you.Copy !req
55. Of course.Copy !req
56. In fact, many feel Dr. Morgenstern's
approach to management...Copy !req
57. is not something
we wish to see perpetuated.Copy !req
58. With all due respect
to Dr. Morgenstern, I agree.Copy !req
59. I know we're way beyond our budget.Copy !req
60. 1.7 million over last year.Copy !req
61. We are in a crisis situation.Copy !req
62. And that's why I've drafted this.Copy !req
63. It outlines measures
that if applied now...Copy !req
64. would put us back on budget
within six months.Copy !req
65. So much waste is simply due
to lax administration.Copy !req
66. Well, you've never
struck me as lax, Kerry.Copy !req
67. And this job is not about
winning popularity contests.Copy !req
68. That's never been my goal, Donald.Copy !req
69. Just Don.Copy !req
70. There will be a reevaluation
when Dr. Morgenstern recovers.Copy !req
71. But I'm confident
that you'll make things work.Copy !req
72. Thank you for your trust.Copy !req
73. Yes!Copy !req
74. Hi. I'm Cynthia Hooper.
I think they called from Personnel.Copy !req
75. - Sure. Hi.
- Hi.Copy !req
76. I'm Jerry, the Unit Service Coordinator.
I'll be training you.Copy !req
77. Come on around.Copy !req
78. Cynthia, this is Nurse Haleh Adams.Copy !req
79. - Dr. Ross, Cynthia, my new assistant.
- How are you?Copy !req
80. Nurse Hathaway, hi!
Well, here I am.Copy !req
81. Yeah, hi.Copy !req
82. Cynthia Hooper, remember?
You interviewed me?Copy !req
83. Yes, I did.Copy !req
84. - Anyone seen Mark?
- Check in the lounge.Copy !req
85. So let's start you
on some basic procedure.Copy !req
86. Anything interesting, Dr. Carter?Copy !req
87. Thought I'd take a look
at this cellulitis.Copy !req
88. Cases will now be taken in order.
No more cherry-picking.Copy !req
89. Here's an old lady, weak and dizzy.Copy !req
90. - Jerry, have you paged my med student?
- Yes. I paged him twice.Copy !req
91. Anna, there's a patient in 3 if you wanna
teach your student ulcer débridement.Copy !req
92. - Thanks, Maggie.
- Sure.Copy !req
93. Haleh, I'd like each nurse to get
a copy of these policy changes today.Copy !req
94. - Did Personnel get the wrong name?
- I picked her. She'll be fine.Copy !req
95. Fine? Mark, she was a disaster.Copy !req
96. She has no experience that
matches the job description.Copy !req
97. I considered the other candidates
and she was the best of the lot.Copy !req
98. Well, we could always interview
more candidates.Copy !req
99. It wasn't necessary.Copy !req
100. After the interview, she explained to me
she was just having a bad day.Copy !req
101. - A bad day?
- Don't worry. She'll be great.Copy !req
102. What?Copy !req
103. New Chief of Emergency Services
has decided to change some policy.Copy !req
104. No shift overlapping? What's that?Copy !req
105. If we don't punch out by 7,
she'll do it for us.Copy !req
106. - Dr. Del Amico, do you remember me?
- Of course, Carla. How are you?Copy !req
107. - I hear the baby's doing great.
- Yeah, he is.Copy !req
108. I was wondering if we could talk
when you're finished.Copy !req
109. Yeah. Actually, we can talk now.
Old Tim won't mind.Copy !req
110. Débriding his ulcer
has a sedative effect.Copy !req
111. I've started nursing.
He's coming home in five days.Copy !req
112. - That's great.
- Yes, it is. I'm real excited.Copy !req
113. Been buying car seats,
baby strollers.Copy !req
114. I love those baby shops.
Everything in them is so cute.Copy !req
115. I was wondering...
I wanted to ask you a question.Copy !req
116. Do you think I should
have him circumcised?Copy !req
117. It would be my preference, sure.Copy !req
118. Hold on a second.Copy !req
119. Débride to here,
then dress it with Tegaderm, okay?Copy !req
120. - Is circumcision healthier?
- I recommend it.Copy !req
121. It's better for hygiene...Copy !req
122. and between us,
I just like the way it looks.Copy !req
123. - Don't let Peter hear you say that.
- Oh, yeah?Copy !req
124. Seriously, having it done is
really in your son's best interest.Copy !req
125. Could you do it?Copy !req
126. Sure. I'll do it today.Copy !req
127. Hey, I heard a Le Fort lll
facial fracture came in.Copy !req
128. Dr. Doyle gave it to Dr. Del Amico.
She's with the surgeon now.Copy !req
129. Coming through!Copy !req
130. I got it!Copy !req
131. 41-year-old male,
motorcycle versus delivery truck.Copy !req
132. Blunt trauma to chest and abdomen.
BP 110/70. Pulse 110.Copy !req
133. We couldn't get a line.
He's a tough stick.Copy !req
134. Okay! Follow me to Trauma 2.Copy !req
135. On my count, everybody.
One, two, three.Copy !req
136. CBC, Chem-7,
type and cross for four.Copy !req
137. Let's get a portable C-spine,
chest and pelvis.Copy !req
138. No kidding, "tough stick. "
Nothing but track marks.Copy !req
139. I'll slide around you, Conni.Copy !req
140. Right upper tenderness with guarding.
Get an abdominal CT with contrast.Copy !req
141. - I can't get a vein.
- I got one.Copy !req
142. Damn, it blew!Copy !req
143. Last time they had to stick
through the deep vein.Copy !req
144. Give me a central line kit.Copy !req
145. - What do you got?
- I got it.Copy !req
146. I'd like to hear it.Copy !req
147. 41-year-old male,
motorcycle versus delivery truck...Copy !req
148. right upper tenderness. I ordered
a CT and am putting in a central line.Copy !req
149. Anna'll take it. You do sutures.
Where's your student?Copy !req
150. - Come on. I already started.
- Carter! Sutures.Copy !req
151. Started a saline. Vitals are stable.
Estimated blood loss, 300 cc's.Copy !req
152. He's gotten 800 cc's in so far.Copy !req
153. Al? Al?Copy !req
154. What happened?Copy !req
155. Clutch slipped and the cart knocked
me and Bill into a ditch. I'm fine.Copy !req
156. Just a little dirty.Copy !req
157. Don't worry. We've taken
harder knocks playing one-on-one.Copy !req
158. All right. Come here.Copy !req
159. What do you need?Copy !req
160. Prednisone.Copy !req
161. This med room really
needs reorganization.Copy !req
162. - Why don't you write a prescription?
- He only needs seven.Copy !req
163. We can't keep giving away
our pharmacy stock.Copy !req
164. I was reviewing our records...Copy !req
165. and noticed that your salary's paid by
Emergency Medicine and not Pediatrics.Copy !req
166. Morgenstern and Bernstein
worked it out.Copy !req
167. Doesn't that mean the ER
is underwriting your fellowship?Copy !req
168. For which they get my full services.Copy !req
169. Morgenstern thinks
it's a two-way street.Copy !req
170. Morgenstern is not in charge now.Copy !req
171. What's the nature of your fellowship?
I could review your research proposal.Copy !req
172. Sure.Copy !req
173. - Can you get me a copy today?
- If I can find one.Copy !req
174. You're needed in Trauma 1.Copy !req
175. Thanks.Copy !req
176. Yes, this is Dr. Carter calling again.
Could Henry page me?Copy !req
177. Actually, don't have him page me.
Have him come to the ER.Copy !req
178. Because he's doing a clerkship!Copy !req
179. That's right, he's on duty.
He's on duty.Copy !req
180. Dr. Greene. Dr. Doyle pulled me off of
a trauma this morning to cover sutures.Copy !req
181. I don't think that's the best
use of my time.Copy !req
182. Maybe she thought
she was more qualified.Copy !req
183. She didn't do it.
She gave it to Dr. Del Amico.Copy !req
184. Which has become standard procedure.Copy !req
185. The suture room
is the intern's place...Copy !req
186. unless you can get your student
to carry the load.Copy !req
187. - Anna, how's your student doing?
- She's a gem.Copy !req
188. There you go.Copy !req
189. Hello? Hello?Copy !req
190. Hello? Henry, is that you?Copy !req
191. - It's this hallway.
- Be careful with that.Copy !req
192. - I don't use this around patients.
- I don't mean that.Copy !req
193. I know this guy who got one free.
The first month, his bill was 300 bucks.Copy !req
194. Well, I limit my calls.Copy !req
195. Plus you can write it off
on your taxes.Copy !req
196. Right. So it's like
an "economy move. "Copy !req
197. It's not bad. I'll clean it up
then suture it.Copy !req
198. - I guess we lucked out, huh, Bill?
- Oh, yeah.Copy !req
199. - Where did all this blood come from?
- It's Al's, from when he fell on me.Copy !req
200. I knew it would tear me up.
But I had to grab the cable.Copy !req
201. Can you move your fingers?Copy !req
202. That's good.Copy !req
203. That's good.
Have you had a tetanus shot?Copy !req
204. Yeah.Copy !req
205. About a year ago.Copy !req
206. - Are you allergic to any drugs?
- None that I know of.Copy !req
207. Hey, there's my guy.Copy !req
208. How's the hero?Copy !req
209. How's it look?Copy !req
210. They'll fix you up.
They can fix anybody up.Copy !req
211. You know, this man saved two lives.Copy !req
212. How are those guys?Copy !req
213. They got away without a scratch.Copy !req
214. Listen, Casey, I want
to take care of you on this.Copy !req
215. Whatever this costs, I'll pay for it.Copy !req
216. I want everybody working
like we've been working.Copy !req
217. But I gotta watch things.
I don't want this on workers' comp.Copy !req
218. I don't know how bad
this is gonna be.Copy !req
219. What are we talking about here?
Some stitches? A cast?Copy !req
220. Maybe surgery.Copy !req
221. You put it on your health insurance.
I pick up the rest.Copy !req
222. And I keep you
on the employment rolls.Copy !req
223. I don't know how my hands
are gonna work after this.Copy !req
224. You know what this'll cost me
on workers' comp?Copy !req
225. Without workers' comp,
he won't qualify for disability.Copy !req
226. Suddenly nurses know everything.Copy !req
227. I'm gonna go make some calls.Copy !req
228. I had an interesting wound
this morning. A linoleum knife.Copy !req
229. The cut was as clean
as a scalpel's.Copy !req
230. Carter, can you take a case
for me? I'm swamped.Copy !req
231. Sure.Copy !req
232. Hey, Chasity?
Dress that for me, would you?Copy !req
233. 27-year-old woman,
altered consciousness.Copy !req
234. No trauma.
Her husband brought her in.Copy !req
235. Thanks, Anna.Copy !req
236. Mr. Toren? I'm Dr. Carter.
I'll be taking care of your wife.Copy !req
237. Last night she was fine,
but I couldn't wake her up this morning.Copy !req
238. - Could she have hit her head somehow?
- I don't think so.Copy !req
239. Did she complain earlier
about having a headache?Copy !req
240. Fever? Nausea?Copy !req
241. No, nothing. She was fine.Copy !req
242. Heart and lungs are normal.
That's good.Copy !req
243. She's not having
any trouble breathing.Copy !req
244. Kirsty, honey, can you hear me?Copy !req
245. For God's sake, baby,
what's wrong?Copy !req
246. Please, just wake up.Copy !req
247. Pupils are in mid-position and fixed.Copy !req
248. Corneal reflexes still intact.
That's good.Copy !req
249. What are you doing?Copy !req
250. Seeing if eye movement adjusts
to changes in head position.Copy !req
251. It'll tell us if there's
brainstem involvement.Copy !req
252. No doll's-eye response.Copy !req
253. - What does that mean?
- It's too early to tell.Copy !req
254. I want to check some labs
and do a head CT.Copy !req
255. Wait in the waiting room,
and I'll keep you posted.Copy !req
256. It's bad isn't it? I can tell.Copy !req
257. We won't know anything
until we run the tests.Copy !req
258. Do whatever you have to. Anything.
I have really good insurance.Copy !req
259. Please?Copy !req
260. Excuse me.
Where's the Benton baby?Copy !req
261. - Reece?
- Yeah. No, Benton.Copy !req
262. - Reece-Benton? The procedure room.
- Okay.Copy !req
263. Whoa! Wait! What are you doing?Copy !req
264. I'm circumcising him.Copy !req
265. No, I don't want him circumcised.Copy !req
266. You don't want me
to leave it half done, do you?Copy !req
267. There.Copy !req
268. I didn't want this.
Who gave you permission?Copy !req
269. Can you open up the xeroform gauze?
His mother.Copy !req
270. - She had no right to.
- I'm sorry. I assumed it was agreed.Copy !req
271. No, it wasn't.Copy !req
272. Well, this isn't between you and I.
This is between you and Carla.Copy !req
273. And it's done.Copy !req
274. - Let's get him back into the crib.
- No, I got him.Copy !req
275. Come here. Come here.Copy !req
276. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Come here. Come here.Copy !req
277. Edema of the brainstem.
Probably an infarct.Copy !req
278. That'd go along with the symptoms
you described.Copy !req
279. - How did she respond to sternal rub?
- Withdrawal.Copy !req
280. All right. Let's see.Copy !req
281. She's decerebrating now.Copy !req
282. I don't think it'll be long before
she goes into full respiratory arrest.Copy !req
283. She's 27 years old.Copy !req
284. - Any family members around?
- Her husband. He's in shock.Copy !req
285. He doesn't know what to think.Copy !req
286. Be sure you talk to him
about organ donation.Copy !req
287. They'll be taking you up to X-ray soon.
How's the pain?Copy !req
288. Okay, since whatever they're
giving me through that tube.Copy !req
289. Better living through chemistry, huh?Copy !req
290. I'm sorry we had to cut your shirt
to pieces to get it off.Copy !req
291. Time for a new one anyway.Copy !req
292. With my first disability check.Copy !req
293. Is this yours?Copy !req
294. No, officer. Not mine.Copy !req
295. Did you smoke this today?Copy !req
296. Never saw it before.Copy !req
297. You were operating dangerous
machinery. Men were hurt.Copy !req
298. Men are alive because I grabbed
a running cable, lady.Copy !req
299. Because I tore my hands to shreds.Copy !req
300. You can smoke it...Copy !req
301. or stick it
where the sun don't shine.Copy !req
302. I told you it's not mine.Copy !req
303. All right. I'll just ask your boss.
Maybe he dropped it.Copy !req
304. Dr. Greene.Copy !req
305. - How's your first day?
- She's doing great.Copy !req
306. We're just starting lab requisitions.Copy !req
307. I'm so lucky. After my interview,
I didn't think I had a chance.Copy !req
308. - What happened?
- A disaster. I cried.Copy !req
309. - We're glad that you're here.
- Thanks.Copy !req
310. - Hi.
- Heather!Copy !req
311. I left you a message
about the Sports Medicine dinner.Copy !req
312. And I left a message
that I couldn't make it.Copy !req
313. Well, you sounded a little vague,
so I'm giving it a face-to-face try.Copy !req
314. It's such a coup if I show up
with a handsome doctor.Copy !req
315. And you couldn't
find anyone else?Copy !req
316. Okay, busted.Copy !req
317. I already bragged I was bringing you.
I'll make it up to you. I promise.Copy !req
318. I'm sorry. Tonight I just can't.Copy !req
319. Is it me or the event?
I mean, does "no" mean "never"?Copy !req
320. No. Just tonight-Copy !req
321. There's a truck outside.
Someone's hurt.Copy !req
322. - I should check this out.
- Okay.Copy !req
323. A lot of blood.
Could be an arterial injury.Copy !req
324. - Grab some lap pads.
- Get a pressure dressing.Copy !req
325. He shot himself in the leg
ejecting a clip.Copy !req
326. Glenda, take the ordnance.
Lock the ammo in the back.Copy !req
327. You can't take weapons in there.Copy !req
328. I can't leave our best stock
in the truck.Copy !req
329. Give it to me.Copy !req
330. - Jer, keep these safe, man.
- Jerry, we're going to Trauma 2.Copy !req
331. - Glenda.
- I'm here, honey.Copy !req
332. - Did you secure the weapons, baby?
- Yes, baby, I did.Copy !req
333. We were on our way to a gun show
to set up a booth.Copy !req
334. Glenda, come close.Copy !req
335. Don't let them take the leg.Copy !req
336. Don't let them, Glenda.Copy !req
337. - It was about his health.
- My son's health is always on my mind.Copy !req
338. - Our son!
- What?Copy !req
339. You can't divide his life
into categories.Copy !req
340. Say, "I'll do health
and you do diapers. " No.Copy !req
341. You hide behind medicine
so we don't talk.Copy !req
342. - Carla, we're talking now.
- This isn't a conversation.Copy !req
343. Because you don't care
what I think or feel.Copy !req
344. I may not be your choice for the mother
of your child, but we have to share.Copy !req
345. Like you shared in the circumcision?Copy !req
346. I was mad.Copy !req
347. Come clean, Peter.Copy !req
348. Your attitude is not about his health.
It's that you want him to look like you.Copy !req
349. So what if I do? Carla, he's my son.Copy !req
350. Then why didn't you say that?
I understand that.Copy !req
351. Instead of you blowing medical steam
that don't make no damn sense.Copy !req
352. Carla, what happened to that boy's penis
should have been left up to me.Copy !req
353. This type of stroke can happen to
anybody. It might be congenital.Copy !req
354. It's so unfair.Copy !req
355. But as long as she's still alive,
there's hope, right?Copy !req
356. As the swelling increases,
it may affect her ability to breathe.Copy !req
357. Then the question becomes whether
it's in her best interest...Copy !req
358. to put her on a ventilator.Copy !req
359. Let her die?Copy !req
360. We can sustain her life
on a respirator.Copy !req
361. But the question is,
what kind of life would it be?Copy !req
362. I can't believe it's all
just gonna be over like this.Copy !req
363. You might think about whether organ
donation is something that she'd want.Copy !req
364. Yeah. Yeah.Copy !req
365. Kirsten would wanna help people.Copy !req
366. Did you see that?Copy !req
367. She may move a little bit
from time to time.Copy !req
368. Oh, my God, she's talking!
Do you hear her?Copy !req
369. Kirsty, honey, can you hear me?Copy !req
370. Steve.Copy !req
371. Yes. Yes, honey. It's me.Copy !req
372. She's coming around! Oh, my God!Copy !req
373. She's all right.Copy !req
374. - Sinus tach on the scope.
- Entrance wound on the left thigh.Copy !req
375. Exit wound by the lateral fibula.
Really torn up.Copy !req
376. Get a portable x-ray down here.Copy !req
377. - Ed, do you feel this?
- Yeah.Copy !req
378. No DP or posterior pulses.Copy !req
379. The woman with the stroke is awake.Copy !req
380. - What woman?
- The brainstem bleed.Copy !req
381. - No. She can't be.
- She is. She's talking.Copy !req
382. Go on. I'll call Vascular.Copy !req
383. - Did you show me the right CT?
- Yes. She was comatose.Copy !req
384. Carter, people with brainstem
infarctions, they don't just wake up.Copy !req
385. Hi. I'm Dr. Greene.Copy !req
386. - What happened to me?
- That's what we want to determine.Copy !req
387. Follow my finger. How do you feel?Copy !req
388. She's fine. Look at her.Copy !req
389. Fine. Just a little tired.Copy !req
390. How long do I have to stay here?Copy !req
391. We need to keep you
under observation a while.Copy !req
392. - Dr. Carter?
- Excuse me.Copy !req
393. See this?Copy !req
394. - This little-
- Schmutz?Copy !req
395. Could be an aneurysm leak trickled
down and caused the swelling.Copy !req
396. - Should we do an LP?
- No, it would be a waste of time.Copy !req
397. This could blow.
Let's get an MRl right away, okay?Copy !req
398. - Brought some clothes for you.
- Thanks.Copy !req
399. Does Bill know you're HIV-positive?Copy !req
400. No.Copy !req
401. I think you'd better tell him.Copy !req
402. My blood didn't get mixed with his.Copy !req
403. - You saw he doesn't have a cut.
- He's got some skin abrasions.Copy !req
404. Look, Jeanie...Copy !req
405. These are working guys. Okay?
It's not like around here.Copy !req
406. That gets out, I'll be out of a job.Copy !req
407. It was rough telling people here.
But I did it.Copy !req
408. He should be tested and put on the
cocktail until his results come back.Copy !req
409. - For a few scratches?
- Yeah.Copy !req
410. - How long will the x-rays take?
- Depends on how backed up they are.Copy !req
411. - Wow. How much is this?
- 275 bucks. Here.Copy !req
412. Put this up to your shoulder.
Feel the potential.Copy !req
413. Last year we sold those to everybody.Copy !req
414. You ever hear of Colonel Draht?Copy !req
415. He was doing fine work with weapons
training patriots in Texas.Copy !req
416. Like that guy from Waco?Copy !req
417. What's the range?Copy !req
418. That'll chuck a grenade
into an area target at 350 meters.Copy !req
419. Buy it! I'll give you a break.Copy !req
420. What with Ed hurt and all,
we won't make the gun show.Copy !req
421. - Jerry!
- Honey, it's disarmed.Copy !req
422. The feds have us hamstrung.
It's illegal to sell usable ordnance.Copy !req
423. But if you take that home,
there's a kit for 70 bucks.Copy !req
424. My neighbor has this dog
that barks all night, every night.Copy !req
425. Damn! I guess Ed
used a kit on that one.Copy !req
426. No, I don't belong to any organization.
It was an accident.Copy !req
427. You think it's against the law,
look it up.Copy !req
428. That is our personal property.Copy !req
429. I know my rights
according to your Constitution.Copy !req
430. Can you hear me?Copy !req
431. How about when I speak like this?Copy !req
432. Yes, but the ringing is really loud.Copy !req
433. - What?
- It tickles.Copy !req
434. Sorry.Copy !req
435. The eardrum is intact.Copy !req
436. Let me take a look at the other side.Copy !req
437. - I hope they're clean, my ears.
- Very clean.Copy !req
438. - If the tinnitus continues-
- Tinnitus?Copy !req
439. The ringing in your ears.Copy !req
440. You may have to see a specialist just
to get your hearing checked, okay?Copy !req
441. Thanks.Copy !req
442. You know, I feel really safe here.Copy !req
443. After today?Copy !req
444. I think it's having
all you doctors around.Copy !req
445. I don't feel like I'm out there
on my own.Copy !req
446. Out there on
"a smile and a shoestring. "Copy !req
447. - Isn't that from something?
- Death of a Salesman.Copy !req
448. We did it in high school.Copy !req
449. My teacher told me I had talent,
but he was trying to get into my pants.Copy !req
450. I think I saw that play in college.Copy !req
451. It's so sad when that guy
looks back over his life...Copy !req
452. and there's just nothing there.Copy !req
453. Yeah.Copy !req
454. I better get back to learning codes.
Thanks again.Copy !req
455. Sure.Copy !req
456. So do we have exposure?Copy !req
457. We've mobilized the proximal segment
and have a clean edge.Copy !req
458. This is the weapons merchant
who cost us an ambulance?Copy !req
459. Damned lucky it won't cost him a leg.Copy !req
460. Dr. Corday will assist...Copy !req
461. in anastomosis of the popliteal.Copy !req
462. - Five-0 of Prolene on a C-1 needle.
- We normally use six-0.Copy !req
463. Five-0 is fine.Copy !req
464. What is your preference on procedure,
Miss Corday?Copy !req
465. I've had good results with
the triangulation technique of Carel.Copy !req
466. Favored among the British.Copy !req
467. I worked with British surgeons
on the joint NATO exercise in 1974.Copy !req
468. - Tell me, do you know Sir Lyle Sugden?
- Suggy? Yes.Copy !req
469. Perhaps you don't know. He's dead.Copy !req
470. Great loss.Copy !req
471. Rather a relief. Towards the end
he got a bit shaky for slash and dash.Copy !req
472. "Slash and dash. "
I love those British terms.Copy !req
473. Dr. Benton, suppose Miss Corday
asked you for a "torch. "Copy !req
474. What would you give her?Copy !req
475. I've taken to saying "flashlight. "Copy !req
476. Once in the field hospital, mid-
thoracotomy, we had a power failure.Copy !req
477. Sir Lyle yelled, "A torch! A torch! "Copy !req
478. I thought he had snapped,
was gonna burn the O.R.Copy !req
479. "I say, when we finish we should
break for a cuppa. What, oh? "Copy !req
480. Stand back!Copy !req
481. - What have you got?
- Laura Quentin, 18.Copy !req
482. Upper Gl bleed.Copy !req
483. Tachy at 115.
I gave a liter of normal saline.Copy !req
484. I know her.Copy !req
485. All right! Let's go, everybody!Copy !req
486. Ready? Everybody ready?
One, two, three.Copy !req
487. Get a CBC, PT,
and type and cross for four.Copy !req
488. Probably from repeated vomiting.
She came in for bulimia weeks ago.Copy !req
489. - Why wasn't she admitted to Psych?
- I'm scared. Am I gonna die?Copy !req
490. No. You're gonna be okay.Copy !req
491. Well, no wonder she's back here.Copy !req
492. Run another liter.Copy !req
493. - Who was the Attending?
- Greene.Copy !req
494. So we're picking up his slack.Copy !req
495. We are, aren't we?Copy !req
496. Right there.Copy !req
497. That's a bleed in the left anterior,
inferior cerebellar artery.Copy !req
498. Process the film.
I'll call a neurosurgeon.Copy !req
499. Mrs. Toren?Copy !req
500. Mrs. Toren?Copy !req
501. - Dr. Greene, she's decerebrating.
- I'll set up for intubation.Copy !req
502. Carter, get her husband to consent to
immediate surgery. I'll book an O.R.Copy !req
503. - She all right?
- She needs surgery.Copy !req
504. The MRl showed a leaking aneurysm
in her cerebellum.Copy !req
505. It has to be operated on.
We'll need you to sign a consent form.Copy !req
506. I'm not signing anything!Copy !req
507. You just told me she was dying.
You wanted her organs. Now she's fine!Copy !req
508. She's not fine!
She has a hemorrhage in her cerebellum.Copy !req
509. When she went in there she was fine!Copy !req
510. Carter, transport is on the way.
Be ready to intubate. I'll get Dr. Corelli.Copy !req
511. - We don't have consent.
- What?Copy !req
512. She was fine! Talking!
I don't want you opening her head!Copy !req
513. Mr. Toren, listen very carefully.Copy !req
514. Your wife will die if she doesn't have
an operation immediately.Copy !req
515. I want her moved!Copy !req
516. That will kill her.Copy !req
517. I know you care for her.
But please, let us operate.Copy !req
518. I'm serious. We are talking minutes.Copy !req
519. These are the post-op forms
Anspaugh prefers.Copy !req
520. What a dreadful old gasbag!Copy !req
521. I mean, he's a decent enough surgeon.
But all that banging on.Copy !req
522. Pathetic Anglophilia.Copy !req
523. Tell me, do you call it "pimping"?Copy !req
524. What?Copy !req
525. Treating you like a med student
with those silly questions.Copy !req
526. - We call that "pimping. "
- Yeah, that's what we call it.Copy !req
527. Fortunately, in the UK the old tossers
are too lazy to come to the O.R.s.Copy !req
528. What?Copy !req
529. We don't refer to our senior surgeons
that way.Copy !req
530. - So I should stop speaking my mind?
- No, no, no. Not on my account.Copy !req
531. I saw her on the phone to Anspaugh
and she did not look happy.Copy !req
532. Her first day and the ER blows up!Copy !req
533. I don't imagine he was saying,
"Attaboy! "Copy !req
534. - I see they got that door repaired.
- Dr. Weaver.Copy !req
535. I'm just so relieved no one was hurt.Copy !req
536. Thank you, doctor.Copy !req
537. Doug, I know it's been crazy today.Copy !req
538. But did you get a copy
of your research?Copy !req
539. I just haven't had a chance
to do it yet, Kerry.Copy !req
540. Maggie, what have you got?Copy !req
541. Abscess. Simple I and D.Copy !req
542. Looks like a fairly deep abscess.Copy !req
543. The booths in that bar are all rotten.Copy !req
544. There's nails sticking up,
maybe an inch.Copy !req
545. - Did you read my directive?
- Yeah.Copy !req
546. That really hurts.Copy !req
547. Most people don't understand
what's at stake here.Copy !req
548. The county is just looking
for an excuse to close this ER.Copy !req
549. Lab tests, x-rays, CT scans
that just cannot be justified.Copy !req
550. Next time you sit on a nail,
get here sooner.Copy !req
551. People just won't realize
that I'm trying to save this place.Copy !req
552. I need the half-inch iodoform.Copy !req
553. I'm hoping that a few people
will understand...Copy !req
554. and come on board.Copy !req
555. Yeah.Copy !req
556. Cut?Copy !req
557. Where's Dr. Corelli?Copy !req
558. In 3, finishing a laminectomy.
You can't go in there!Copy !req
559. Dr. Corelli?
Mark Greene, ER Attending.Copy !req
560. This is not allowed.Copy !req
561. - Dr. Corelli, I've got an emergency!
- It better be good, Dr. Greene.Copy !req
562. 25-year-old woman came in comatose...Copy !req
563. followed by periods of brief lucidity,
after which she decompensated.Copy !req
564. She's posturing, GCS-5.
MRl shows a cerebellar bleed.Copy !req
565. I took the liberty of booking O.R. 5.Copy !req
566. Helen, can you close for me?Copy !req
567. - Five pounds enough?
- All right.Copy !req
568. You'll feel a little pressure
at the top of your leg.Copy !req
569. I've found ice and Trendelenburg
excellent adjuvant therapies...Copy !req
570. for the reduction
of these inguinal hernias.Copy !req
571. - Can we get an ice pack?
- Sure.Copy !req
572. All right, buddy,
now we're gonna fix you up...Copy !req
573. but the first thing we gotta do
is stand you on your head.Copy !req
574. - Weird, huh?
- I like your technique.Copy !req
575. - Cranking the bed?
- No, with children.Copy !req
576. - You're so at ease with them.
- It's where I spend all my time.Copy !req
577. All your time?
That's certainly dedication.Copy !req
578. I've come to crave a bit of leisure.Copy !req
579. It's not all work and no play.
How you doing there?Copy !req
580. So when one plays, where does
one play? I mean, here in Chicago.Copy !req
581. Now, we know you can take pain...Copy !req
582. let's see if you can
take a little cold, huh?Copy !req
583. What a guy! All right.
Why don't we just wait and see?Copy !req
584. You were about to tell me how
to unwind. Or perhaps show me?Copy !req
585. That's if you're up to playing Virgil
to my Dante.Copy !req
586. Nothing really comes to mind.Copy !req
587. I have a patient to see.Copy !req
588. Well, if you think of a place,
I'd like to invite you.Copy !req
589. I'm involved with someone.Copy !req
590. It's not a problem. Bring her along.Copy !req
591. We ever getting out of here?Copy !req
592. I think they're about through with us.Copy !req
593. - How's that wrist?
- It's okay.Copy !req
594. The doctor called it a Colles' fracture.
It's not so bad.Copy !req
595. Bill, Jeanie's here
because you've gotta be tested.Copy !req
596. Tested for what?Copy !req
597. I'm HIV-positive.Copy !req
598. You're not talking about
having AIDS, right?Copy !req
599. Yeah, I am.Copy !req
600. When we landed together,
I was bleeding pretty bad.Copy !req
601. I'm sure our blood didn't mix
when you were scratched...Copy !req
602. but you should be tested
just to be safe.Copy !req
603. - So I could get AIDS?
- It's a very remote possibility.Copy !req
604. You got it?Copy !req
605. Oh, man!Copy !req
606. You're out there working with us
and you got AIDS?Copy !req
607. I gotta get by like everybody else.Copy !req
608. We can live with it
and take precautions.Copy !req
609. Except now maybe I got infected.Copy !req
610. Jeanie will take some blood
so we can be sure-Copy !req
611. No!Copy !req
612. Not her. I want someone else.Copy !req
613. Come on, we're talking about Jeanie-Copy !req
614. Not her!Copy !req
615. I'll get a nurse.Copy !req
616. Carol, I know what you're thinking
and you're wrong.Copy !req
617. I'm busy.Copy !req
618. - I'll follow you until-
- Why me? Why not follow her?Copy !req
619. - If it wasn't a secret, I'd tell her-
- I think this secrecy thing works for you.Copy !req
620. - I didn't flirt with her.
- No.Copy !req
621. She just likes the way
you hold an ice pack.Copy !req
622. I told her I was attached.
I didn't say who with.Copy !req
623. - I didn't say that Carol was my-
- Your what? I'm your what?Copy !req
624. Come here.Copy !req
625. I want to be with you and be here
with you because I want to.Copy !req
626. But if you don't trust me,
then this doesn't work.Copy !req
627. I have a lot of things to do.Copy !req
628. I'll be at the El.Copy !req
629. Dr. Greene?Copy !req
630. The O.R. says they clipped the base
of her aneurysm.Copy !req
631. - In time?
- She has a chance at a full recovery.Copy !req
632. Her husband wants to thank you.Copy !req
633. - This was more your case than mine.
- You made the diagnosis.Copy !req
634. When credit is offered, take it.
It doesn't happen often.Copy !req
635. Mark.Copy !req
636. Laura Quentin's back.Copy !req
637. - Who?
- The bulimia patient.Copy !req
638. I need your signature so Medicine
can admit her. Is that a problem?Copy !req
639. Because I didn't admit her before?Copy !req
640. It was a mistake.
I should've admitted her last time.Copy !req
641. She wasn't critical,
so technically it wasn't.Copy !req
642. I didn't go the extra mile.Copy !req
643. It shouldn't depend on doctors to go
the extra mile. We need a safety net.Copy !req
644. We're an ER, not a clinic.Copy !req
645. - She's doing it.
- What?Copy !req
646. Weaver's punched us out.
We're working for free.Copy !req
647. She can't do that.
I got another hour.Copy !req
648. Kerry?Copy !req
649. - This is a really bad idea.
- It's not a matter of choice.Copy !req
650. I'm not singling out nurses.
All departments have to cut back.Copy !req
651. - Who'll do nurses' duties?
- Interns.Copy !req
652. The interns?Copy !req
653. Carol, I see people
at the end of their shifts...Copy !req
654. talking, planning social events.Copy !req
655. It can't go on.
Nurses' time isn't billed for.Copy !req
656. - They don't generate income.
- No. They just generate care.Copy !req
657. No, I just had a change of plans.Copy !req
658. Don't worry. There's a tux
rental place right by here.Copy !req
659. Listen, instead of that
rubber chicken...Copy !req
660. why don't we go to Stella Mare
and have a nice dinner?Copy !req
661. We can be a little late.Copy !req
662. Great. Okay.Copy !req
663. - Big night?
- Yeah. Why not?Copy !req
664. - Sounds great.
- Yeah, it is.Copy !req
665. Sorry.Copy !req
666. Looking good. Looking good.Copy !req
667. There's one spot by the door
where the paint's chipped off.Copy !req
668. A few more touches
and it'll all be clean.Copy !req
669. I've been checking your employment file.
You've accrued 26 vacation days.Copy !req
670. I've never taken a day off.Copy !req
671. I'm thinking about going down
to Alabama after the first of the year.Copy !req
672. Perhaps you should start
taking that time right now.Copy !req
673. Now? It's like
a million degrees down there.Copy !req
674. I understand there's some lovely
antebellum homes down in Mobile.Copy !req
675. Did you find your student?Copy !req
676. The lab said he went
to the fish hatchery for salmon sperm.Copy !req
677. They got pretty backed up in Sutures.Copy !req
678. - Saying it's my fault?
- It's where I assigned you.Copy !req
679. - Will Dr. Del Amico be doing sutures?
- What?Copy !req
680. I'm just wondering if you'll continue
to give her the interesting cases...Copy !req
681. while I get assigned
to suture Siberia!Copy !req
682. What are you talking about?Copy !req
683. I'm just asking if there isn't
something about Dr. Del Amico...Copy !req
684. that you find especially appealing?Copy !req
685. Meaning?Copy !req
686. You know what I mean.Copy !req
687. That's great.Copy !req
688. That's great.Copy !req
689. - What?
- Ask him.Copy !req
690. By the way, Anna, I love your hair.Copy !req
691. Thanks.Copy !req
692. What's that about?Copy !req
693. - Nothing.
- Come on. It's the end of the day.Copy !req
694. I could use a laugh.Copy !req
695. It wasn't that funny.Copy !req
696. She has a weird sense of humor.Copy !req
697. So it's a private joke.Copy !req
698. Congratulations on that stroke lady.
I heard it was a good save.Copy !req
699. Thanks. Thanks for giving it to me.Copy !req
700. I was swamped.Copy !req
701. I'd like to return the favor.Copy !req
702. Don't, please.
I hate feeling indebted.Copy !req
703. - Wait. There is something.
- Sure.Copy !req
704. This morning you were talking
about taxes. I'm getting hammered.Copy !req
705. Yeah. You can deduct stethoscope,
lab coat, books.Copy !req
706. - Otoscope?
- Absolutely. All equipment.Copy !req
707. What about dinner?
We could talk about it.Copy !req
708. - Tonight's the Laundromat.
- Me too!Copy !req
709. Me too. We could do our laundry,
I'll do your tax plan-Copy !req
710. - Laundry's deductible.
- Really?Copy !req
711. Okay. I'll get us some sandwiches.Copy !req
712. Great.Copy !req
713. Doug!Copy !req
714. I had prepared a very elaborate
argument. This mean I don't need it?Copy !req
715. I already had the argument,
with myself.Copy !req
716. - I hope there wasn't any name-calling.
- No, it was very civil. You won.Copy !req
717. - So I do better when I'm not there.
- This time, yeah.Copy !req
718. So you trust me?Copy !req
719. This time.Copy !req
720. Are you keeping score?Copy !req
721. - Yeah. You're ahead.
- I'm sorry. What?Copy !req
722. "Talk on rotator cuff injuries
in track and field. "Copy !req
723. What exactly does that mean?Copy !req
724. You're the doctor.
You should know that.Copy !req
725. I probably did know that
before we drank this.Copy !req
726. I have an idea.
Why don't we drink another bottle?Copy !req
727. Then we can obliterate
all medical knowledge.Copy !req
728. Sounds good.Copy !req
729. What?Copy !req
730. I missed you.Copy !req
731. No, come on. You never called.
You vanished.Copy !req
732. I was a fool, okay?
I'll make it up to you.Copy !req
733. Promise?Copy !req
734. It won't work with dimes and nickels.
You gotta use quarters.Copy !req
735. You don't have any quarters, do you?Copy !req
736. Cool.Copy !req
737. You should let your wife do this.Copy !req
738. My wife? Oh, yeah.
She's getting some sandwiches for us.Copy !req
739. You don't know what you're doing.Copy !req
740. What are you doing?
Sorry. What's going on?Copy !req
