Elizabeth Corday quotes from E.R.

Benton

You're running all over the hospital, asking every surgeon to sponsor you.

Elizabeth

Okay, so what do you suggest?

Benton

Elizabeth, you haven't even checked out other hospitals, other parts of the country.

Elizabeth

I've built up relationships here. Or so I thought.

Benton

I'm not saying I would want you to leave Chicago.

Elizabeth

No, but you're not passionate about my fight to stay.

Romano

I couldn't do it, work with family.

Elizabeth

Robert, you can't work with anyone.

Lucy

[about Romano] So, should I feel special, or does he stare at everyone's breasts?

Elizabeth

No, only the females as far as I know.

Romano

If Ms Knight actually helps you to finish early, i would like to ask you to assist this afternoon with a choledochojejunostomy.

Elizabeth

Choledochojejunostomy?

Romano

Oh, you can say it!

Elizabeth

I've found a way to limit my Romano exposure.

Benton

Oh, yeah, what's that? Garlic?

Carol

What? Mark, what?

Mark

Heartbeat.

Carol

Yes, Mark, Elizabeth already said that. What?

Elizabeth

No, what he means is... there's two heartbeats.

Carol

[shocked] Twins?!

Elizabeth

[on finding Mark at the batting cage] So this is what American males do to vent their anger and frustrations.

Mark

Figured a Romano-Weaver double homicide was overkill.

Romano

The Chicago Gazette is sending over a reporter - mostly to do a fluff piece on me - but they also want to take a look at the ER.

Elizabeth

Why are you telling me?

Romano

Well, because you're gonna show them around. Let them see what heroes we all are. How we save kiddies' lives et cetera. You know? Blowing my trumpet?

Don't you do that better yourself?

Romano

Look at you. Look at me. Who would you rather spend an hour with?

You have a point.

Elizabeth

I'm curious about something.

Me too. Are you a natural redhead? I'd like to see for myself.

Elizabeth

Robert, this is a dog.

Romano

Correction, Lizzie, this is my dog.

Elizabeth

I'm sorry, Robert, I just don't think it's proper to be operating on your dog.

Romano

I'm chief of staff, is that proper enough for you? Besides, what would you have me do? Leave her to some poodle surgeon?

Elizabeth

Your liver was damaged, but we were able to repair it. However we did have to remove your spleen. I'm sorry.

Lucy, you can't speak. You can whisper, if I plug the trake. D'you want to try that?

Elizabeth

Okay.

Elizabeth

Remember, only whisper.

Lucy

Thank you.

Romano

OK, that's it, we've done everything we can.

Romano

Holding compressions.

Romano

[shakily] Oh, dammit... [tosses equipment across the room] Son of a bitch...

Romano

No. NO. NO. Let's give a minute for the last epi to circulate, come on. Charge to 30, let's go. [Elizabeth does nothing] COME ON, LIZZY, LET'S GO!!!

Elizabeth

[voice braking] Robert...

Romano

Call it.

Elizabeth

Time of death, 2:56.

Isabelle Corday

[Elizabeth comes home unexpectedly] Elizabeth?

Elizabeth Corday

Morning, I forgot some notes for a meeting. You look tired, were you watching Charlie Rose again...?

Isabelle Corday

Not exactly.

David Greene

Uh, morning Elizabeth.

Isabelle Corday

David came over for breakfast.

Elizabeth Corday

In boxers and slippers... my slippers?

David Greene

Uh, I hope you don't mind.

Elizabeth Corday

I thought you were ice fishing.

David Greene

Well... I... uh... didn't make it.

Elizabeth Corday

I can see that.

Elizabeth

I can't seem to give this kidney away. We're going through potential recipients like...

Mark

Crap through a goose?

Elizabeth

Yeah, that works.
