Moretti quotes from E.R.

[over the loudspeaker, to a hung-over patient who is yelling to God that he's going to die] Bernie, this is God! Hurry it up already!

Abby

You're not lost, are you? If you need directions...

No, no. [pauses] You know why we're here? Because of war. Without it, you would be a pediatrician or an oncologist. I'd probably still be losing my mind in the ICU.

Abby

War, huh?

Uh huh. Emergency medicine is actually the result of centuries of warfare. It's a field that was defined by doctors and nurses, in bombed out buildings, trying to take care of patients on dirty canvas stretchers. And performing procedures in tent hospitals that were literally hundreds of feet away from where the battles raged. And these people, our predecessors, they had a simple primary focus: survival. And down in the bunkers they dug in deep, to try to save their patients lives and to try to save their own lives. And they ended up giving life to this whole new art form. This great collaborative enterprise, that we still carry on today. That's why we're here.

Abby

[nods her head] You don't get out much, do you?

Hi, Dr. Kovač, I heard you were working here, and I wondered if I might be able to talk to you-

Luka

Well, you really have balls to show up here and ask for anything.

Look, I'm at a very difficult time in my life-

Luka

[sarcastically] Really? Me, too.

[nods] I know that. And, I'm sorry for any part that I've played in that. But, I just wanted to tell you that... whatever happened with... me and Abby... was just the misguided, messed-up flailings of two people- two very troubled people.

Luka

[nods, sarcastically] That's beautiful.

[pause] Look, she loves you. Anybody can see that. And, as somebody who has squandered that kind of thing before, in his own life... I wanna implore you, not to make the same mistake, so...

Luka

Are you done?

Uh, yeah. I think I am. [Luka nods, then drops his grocery bag and punches Moretti once in the jaw] Guess I had that coming, huh?

Luka

Thanks for stopping by.
