Carter and Chen in “Family Matters”

Carter

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

Chen

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

Carter

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

Chen

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.

Carter

Well...

Chen

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