“Family Matters” · Season 6, Episode 10

In this episode: John Carter (3), Luka Kovač (1), Mark Greene (1), Kerry Weaver (1), Jing-Mei Chen (1), Dave Malucci (1)

Yeah, I'm actually pretty surprised to see you around here. I, uh, thought you dropped out of medicine after...

I almost killed that patient by leaving a guidewire in his chest?

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bring that up.

Oh yes you did, John. But that's okay. And let's face it, it was kind of a low point. But it did force me to face the truth. I was being way too aggressive. Way too much of an overachiever. Always trying to show people up.

Well...

And way too successful at it. I'd left the patient out of the picture.

[When Greene tells Carter he has to go to San Diego]

Hey, is everything okay?

Well, my father's barricaded himself in our old house. There's no heat, there's no electricity. He's running around in his underwear so actually everything isn't okay,

So, uh, Carter... did you know this new resident, Jing something-or-other?

That's good, screw up her name. That'll impress her.

Luka, I heard about what happened. I'm sorry.

No, don't, don't apologize.

It might not always make sense to us, but when there's a difficult family situation, we call DCFS because they have expertise in this area. We have to defer to their judgment.

You don't break up families.

Sometimes we do. It's complicated.

No! My wife and kids were taken.

In the war?

Yeah. And then killed. You don't break up families.
