S9 E6One Can Only Hope

[approaching Nathan, who's sitting on the EL station bench] Hi.

PNPaul Nathan

Hey.

[long pause as Corday sits beside him]

PNPaul Nathan

Uh, I hear the organ service got Alison on the UNOS list.

Yes, I know. Status two. [pause] It's a nice feeling.

PNPaul Nathan

What?

When you realize you've affected someone's life. Touched them in some way.

PNPaul Nathan

You think she'll last long enough?

One can only hope.

S9 E7Tell Me Where It Hurts

My family's so screwed up. If I were you, I'd run for my life and never look back.

You don't hold the monopoly on screwed up families. You met my mother.

She's not certifiable.

I have an idea. I think we should get them all together for the holidays... Gamma, my parents, your mom. [Abby laughs]

...I'm really scared for him, Carter

I know.

And it's so unfair, 'cause he was such a good kid. And we went through so much growing up, and I thought, 'God, I'm through!' I thought... he was safe.

He's gonna get all the help that he needs now. We're going to make sure that he does. And nothing that you did, or didn't do, could've prevented this.

It's just that, Eric... He was the only constant thing in my life... He was the only thing I could ever really count on.

That's not true anymore.

Promise? 'Cause, I really need something to hang onto right now.

I'm not going anywhere.

[to Gallant and Harkins] Okay, alright, settle down. This is a teaching hospital, not Medical Jeopardy.

[enters the room] Where are all the doctors?

Who are you looking for?

Anyone! Carter, Weaver, Pratt- I'm not picky.

Uh- Carter's stuck in Triage, Pratt's on at midnight, and Weaver's MIA.

What else is new?

[remembers] Kovac is sleeping.

[sarcastically] With who? I thought he was suspended.

Just say no to drugs and double bacon cheeseburgers.

PNPaul Nathan

You know, his size was probably something he couldn't control.

Especially if he was running downhill.

[to Abby] Every controller I know has had a couple of PTSD assessments. It's our way of working the system to get a little extra time off. We even joke about it. "How do you know when an air traffic controller is suffering from post-traumatic stress? His tackle box is missing." You know? He's gone fishing?

[to Susan] You're doing a good job of clearing the patients today.

Easy to be fast when you're just killing them.

S9 E8First Snowfall

Ok, rack is empty, triage is clear, and labs are pending on my only two patients.

Good.

So, what do I do know?

I don't know? Go play in the snow.

My husband, his name was Mark, he died... My God, I was about to say last year. It's only been six months.

[when she enters Eric's military hospital room] Hi.

Were you expecting a strait jacket?

No. You look nice.

Fashion is key at a court martial.

Um...They might ask you to testify...

Yeah, I know.

Mom, I need you to be with me on this. He can't stay at a military jail.

I'm with you. [Abby nods slowly]

I'm sorry. [Maggie looks at her] I'm just scared for him, and I'm... angry. I'm angry at you, for having to do this again... and you didn't do anything.

No. You're angry at me for... giving it to him.

No! No, no, I didn't-

I know you feel like a mother to him. Why shouldn't you? You practically raised him; you have a right. But I'm his mother, and I... gave it to him. I gave it to my son. All I can do now is... try to be his mother.

S9 E9Next of Kin

I so need a margarita. Are you ready?

I think I'm gonna pass.

Oh, come on. I hate drinking alone. I mean I'll do it, but...

[to Carter] If I was stuck on a train with my family... Well, bad example. I'd throw myself on the tracks.
