TV show quotes
I wasn't trying to be a hero this morning. I asked you to move in because I... I love you. I'm in love with you, And I thought, I don't know, maybe you feel the same.
Did you just say that?
I spend too much time wasting time. So whenever you're ready, just let me know.
You left me alone in there.
We had two traumas.
Yeah. And last week, I had to get approval for everything I do and now all of a sudden, I'm supposed to run a code by myself!
Welcome to internship.
[Luka says goodbye to Carter. Sam give Carter a med record and follows Luka out the door and chases him down.]
Luka!
I thought you were still on?
For awhile, yeah. Ah, you know what you said, earlier, on the steps? [Luka nods] Me too. So… come on by later and I’ll make you some eggs.
[nods again] OK.
[They both turn to go. Sam turns and yells out]
Hey!
[Sam runs to Luka, he grabs her in his arms as he laughs and they kiss.]
[Neela is sitting in a registry/intelligence office]
So you placed very high on your placement test, but you haven't got a lot of experience in any other service industry. No retail, no sales. Secretarial?
No.
Uh... Bookkeeping?
Not really.
Horticulture?
[Neela shakes her head]
Mechanics?
[Neela shakes her head]
Electrical?.....Perhaps we'd have better luck if you told us what sort of things you can do.
Well, let's see: I can crack open your chest, reinflate your lung and squeeze your heart back to life.
How's the night shift going?
Ugly- but it's been quiet for the last hour or so.
Well, that won't last. Sunburns, blown-off fingers, potluck food poisoning- nothing like the E.R. on the Fourth of July.
You sound like you're looking forward to it.
Anytime you mix alcohol, gunpowder and the great outdoors, you're in for a good time.
[while Luka and Alex are playing video games] You're going down, you little freak.
You suck.
You're worse at this than you are at soccer.
Bite me, you Slav bastard.
[as she walks in the door] Alex! What did you just say?
What?
What did you say?
Nothing.
I heard you. [to Luka] You heard him. What did he say?
I didn't hear anything. Might have been the game.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you heard the game, Mom.
Yeah, well, I don't wanna hear that kind of talk out of you. [to Luka] Or you.
[after discovering that Neela got a job at the Jumbo Mart] When you said you were looking for a job, I thought you meant at another hospital or a clinic maybe.
I didn't have much luck.
You only looked for one day.
This is the only job I can get because I'm a loser.
You are not a loser.
At least you're close to the hospital.
[Abby kicks Ray]
That intern, Abby, do you know if she's seeing anybody?
Just me. It's a casual, sexual relationship, but we're always looking for a third.
How would you feel about accepting a non-tenure-track position as clinical instructor?
So after giving seven years of my service to this hospital, I lose my tenure over a single patient.
Elizabeth, you broke the law. What did you think was gonna happen?
I don't know. That I might be appreciated for saving a life. That... that friends might have fought for me.
I did fight for you. I had to beg, borrow and steal just to keep them from giving your name to the state board.
What the hell, let them pull my license. Let them make it ugly. I'll go public. I'll tell anyone who cares to listen this hospital was willing to let a man die because a bloody bill was signed on a Tuesday rather than a Monday. We did something extraordinary here, Kerry.
You're right. We did, but that's not our purpose. We can barely service the community's basic medical needs as it is.
And that's it? Just stay open, get through each day?
Isn't that enough?
I'm here because I want the ER chief job.
But you turned it down once already.
That was pre-baby. Turns out I like kids better when they're not sucking the life force out of me.
Mommy, in the picture?
Listen, John, i'm going to have go, okay, bye. [to Ella] Sorry, sweetheart, what?
Is this Daddy? [hands Elizabeth a picture of Mark]
Yeah! You know that! [hands the picture back to Ella, and she looks at another photo]
Who are they? [hands a black and white picture to Elizabeth]
[smiling] That's your Nana and Grandpa.
Are they dead too?
[Elizabeth looks sadly into the distance, remembering Mark]
[at the Jumbo Mart] One large coffee and a first-year resident, please.
Sorry?
Howard quit.
He did?
Yeah, are you interested?
Well, Neela's going through this delayed adolescent rebellion slash premature midlife crisis thing right now.
Look, I've called the NRMP, I have scraped the bottom of the barrel, I have seen or spoken with more freaks that Dr. Phil. I am desperate, no offense, for anyone even remotely competent and/or sane.
I don't know, I mean, I'm-I'm working now so...
Yeah, you're right. You just keep ringing up those pork rinds and making Icees.
This whole transplant situation, the new staff, my four-year-old daughter... it's all helped me see things more clearly. Mark's gone. So many of my friends are gone. There's... there's no reason to stay. Not for me. Not for Ella. I suppose I've known that for a long time now, but it's It's just hard to move on, isn't it? Would you apologize to everyone for me?
Aren't you gonna come by and see everybody before you go?
I'm not much for goodbyes. They make me cry, truth be told.
If you want me to tell anyone anything?
Tell them, uh... It's been lovely.
Rule #1: feed the nurses. It makes the job 50% easier.
Jet-skis account for only 20% of boats but are involved in 44% of injuries. Know why that is, Dr. Lockhart?
No.
"No" is right -- no throttle, no steering, no way to stop.
