Maggie Lockwood quotes from Chicago Med

We lost a patient this morning, Lisa Patrick. Her husband wants to harvest her eggs. Do we have a protocol for that?

We do. Ms. Patrick will have to be on life support for two weeks for hormone stimulation therapy, followed by the retrieval itself. It's an expensive and complicated procedure.

Well, he seems pretty committed. He says his wife really wanted to have a child.

Well, I imagine she meant she wanted a child she could mother and raise. This... this is a little different.

Maggie Lockwood

A lot different.

I'll call gynecology and get the process started.

Thank you.

Dr. Choi, we're gonna need some of your Navy-inspired discipline today.

Sorry, I'm with the paramedics today. Resident ride along.

Maggie Lockwood

And discipline, that a nice way of saying I'm a tight ass? [laughs] Oh, yes. Tight.

I didn't say that.

Maggie Lockwood

And getting the docs in line, isn't that the Chief Resident's job anyway?

Wonderful, the guy who's enforcing the rules is the one always breaking them. [looks over at Dr. Halstead]

The roommate search is not going well.

Maggie Lockwood

Well, you're trolling the Internet. What'd you expect?

It's the hospital community page. I don't know, someone like... me.

Maggie Lockwood

Oh, you mean, like, a slightly anal, overly stubborn, rule breaking control freak? Good luck.

Really? When I'm already down?

Maggie Lockwood

I miss my brother, is that so horrible?

DLDenise Lockwood

He's gone!

Maggie Lockwood

Not completely! Not to me! I know I hurt you, but I'm not going to lose you. If I have to drag you kicking and screaming into the CT scanner, that's what's going to happen.

Do you think it's weird?

Maggie Lockwood

What, you hooking up with your late husband's best friend?

Not "hooking up".

Maggie Lockwood

Whatever you want to call it. You're asking me if it's weird.

Yeah.

Maggie Lockwood

Ehh, a little.

[Natalie sighs]

Maggie Lockwood

Don't stress out about it. I learned a long time ago that you have to do what makes you happy, even if some people think it's strange.

[a patient has a gun up his rectum] He says he has no idea how the gun got up there.

All right, what are our options?

It's not gonna be easy getting it out. It's just past his sphincter.

Dr. Jeff Clarke

Plus, the hammer's cocked. So if there's a live round in there...

Seriously?

Dr. Stanley Stohl

Could do some real damage... 22 single-shot derringer. That's a big kick for a little gun.

So we work up a plan to get him to the O.R. Page the surgeon on call.

Ms. Goodwin, I think it'd be safer to do it here. Jeff and I both have weapons experience. We sedate him, try to slide it out. If we can't make it, then we call in surgery.

Dr. Jeff Clarke

I'm in.

Maggie Lockwood

Should we call CPD?

Yes. We'll need enough body armor and gear to protect whoever's in there with him. And let's keep this area clear.

Dr. Stanley Stohl

And I'll keep the cameraman away from all this. It's unsafe, and frankly, it's distasteful.

You know, it used to be if a doctor told a patient to do something, they just did it.

Maggie Lockwood

You been binging on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman again?

No, I'm just saying things were different.

[performing an ultrasound on a patient] No kidney stones. Let's look at the bladder. [noticing something unusual] How long did you say she was in a vegetative state for?

Maggie Lockwood

Five years.

We need to call the police. This woman is pregnant.

View quote →

Is this our victim?

Yeah. It's awful. You ever seen anything like this?

I wish I could say I hadn't.

Maggie Lockwood

Okay, let's lift. One, two, three.

So helpless.

We're looking into all of the employees at Teresa's facility. We're checking visitor logs, security footage. We'll find out who had access to her and to her floor.

Maggie Lockwood

But the rape kit's only supposed to reveal DNA for the past five days. How is this gonna help?

I hate to say this, but the likelihood in a case like this is that the offender's been assaulting her regularly, maybe even daily.

[orienting a new nurse] Seven treatment rooms on the east side, four trauma bays on the west. Bays three and four combine to treat gunshot wounds, a place affectionately known as Baghdad. 4,000 shootings in Chicago. Some days we get... [patient screaming] a dozen. Drug dispensers are in the north and south end of the E.D., extra gurneys, isolation suites in the ambulance bay. Uh... Band-Aid, wound dressings, gauze, and extra weaponry are in the supply closet next to the elevator, which brings us right here to the command center.

Nurse Doris

Deer in the headlights.

Maggie Lockwood

Mm-hm.

Nurse Doris

Nursling?

Maggie Lockwood

Monique Lawson. She's got her Pediatric Advanced Life Support certification, and is doing her E.D. check-off skills training with yours truly.

Nurse Doris

[to Monique] Be careful. She bites.

MLMonique Lawson

I hardly slept last night. I just couldn't stop thinking. I mean, so many people coming in, horrible injuries.

April Sexton

And this isn't even a busy day.

MLMonique Lawson

I just hope I'm up to it.

Maggie Lockwood

Quick, nurses' credo?

MLMonique Lawson

Uh... cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always.

Maggie Lockwood

Uh-uh. Don't kill your patient.

MLMaggie Lockwood, April Sexton, Nurse Doris

Because that's the doctor's job.

[approaching] I heard that.

Our server has been corrupted and shut down, and until we can restore the system, we'll be operating under downtime procedure. That means paper charts.

Maggie Lockwood

Oh, and no tablets, people. Hand 'em over.

Dr. Sarah Reese

So we have no access to anyone's medical records? How... how do we do stuff?

Well, there was a time not so long ago when we actually treated patients without the aid of computers. Imagine that. Tell them, Dr. Charles.

[reluctant to hand over his tablet] Can I keep it if I promise not to use it?

Maggie Lockwood

Sorry, Dr. Charles, IT needs to check them all out.
