Rachel Greene quotes from E.R.

Did you make him all better?

Benton

Who?

The boy in the green room.

Benton

[to Mark] The gunshot victim.

Mark

They tried really hard, Rachel. But he died.

Will his mommy be sad?

Mark

Very sad.

[to Benton] Are you sad?

Benton

Yeah.

If you're sad, why aren't you crying?

Benton

I am. [touches Rachel's heart.] Right here.

If I got hurt, would you fix me?

Mark

Yes, I would.

You wouldn't let me die?

My daddy's your doctor.

He helped me be better.

[whispers] That's what doctors do.

Lucy

So your dad works here?

Yeah, he's one of the bosses. Well, he used to be the only boss, before Dr. Weaver butted in.

Mark

I know growing up can be tough. You can call me anytime.

Yeah, until Mom takes away my phone privileges again.

Mark

It'll be okay.

No, it won't.

Mark

Rachel, what do you want me to do?

You could let me stay here.

Mark

You can't.

Why not?

Mark

Your mom would miss you.

Right.

Mark

You'd miss your friends.

They're only a phone call away. I'll make new ones.

Mark

What about school?

They have schools in Chicago. I just want to spend more time with you and Ella. I've got a baby sister who doesn't even know me, and Elizabeth is totally smart and cool. I mean, she's a great role model.

Mark

Are you serious about this?

Yes.

Mark

It's a big move.

I miss you, Dad.

Mark

I'll talk to your mother.

Mark

[after Ella is brought into the ER after overdosing on ecstasy] You bring drugs into our house and leave them out for a baby?

It wasn't mine.

Mark

Stop lying!

I'm not. They were just for a party and I wasn't sure I was going to take them.

Mark

Well, your sister did.

But she's going to be okay, though, right? It was just one pill.

Mark

Are you really that stupid? Ella is 9 months old!

Mark

She almost died.

Dad, don't...

Mark

Don't what? Don't call you a liar? Because that's what you are, Rachel. You promised me you weren't doing drugs. She could have long-term brain damage, learning disabilities, low I.Q., memory impairment. She could still die!

[starts crying] I know, Dad. Please, please, Dad, I... I'm sorry. I'm... Dad, I'm... Daddy, I'm sorry. [cries into Mark's arms; Mark comforts her]

[to Elizabeth about the ecstasy] I was thinking about taking one at a party. They were in my bag. I forgot about it. I'm so sorry. I know there's nothing I can do to make it right.

Elizabeth

You can leave. You can pack up your things and leave my house.

I... I have to call my mom.

Elizabeth

Then call her.

Mark

I'd get here at 6 a.m., sweep up, mop the locker rooms, skim the pool. $1.25 an hour.

That's slave wages.

Mark

It was enough to keep me in new records and good weed.

Mark

What? You know, records, LPs, vinyls. Those funny, big black things that your hip-hop heroes are always ripping off for their songs.

Elizabeth

Your father's dying.

I know that.

Elizabeth

He's going to die soon. Very soon. If you keep on like this, you're gonna miss what little time you have left with him. This is it, Rachel. This is your last chance. And if you blow it, you're gonna end up hating yourself for the rest of your life.

Mark

I was trying to figure out what I should have already told you, but I never have. Something important, something every father should impart to his daughter. I finally got it: generosity. Be generous, with your time, with your love, with your life.

Okay.

Mark

I'm sorry, Rachel. I'm so tired.

It's okay.

Mark

Don't cry for me.

I won't.

Mark

Be generous...always.

I will. Daddy. I remember the lullaby. I remember you used to sing it to me every night. I remember.

Frank

Can I help you?

You don't remember me.

Frank

Should I?

God, it's amazing how little has changed around here... My dad used to be on staff

Frank

Mmm hmm.

Mark Greene. I'm his daughter Rachel.

[as victims are arriving] Dr. Carter?

Carter

What? I'm sorry. What?

Are you okay?

Carter

Yeah. A little deja vu.

[as he is wheeling in a patient] Carter. You working?

Carter

Absolutely!

Come on!

Carter

[to Rachel as he's taking a patient into the ER] Dr. Greene. You coming? [Rachel runs after him]
