[to Corday] You can wear the long coat; it looks better on you.
S5 E4Vanishing Act
You need some help.
Okay. Take rashes.
I was thinking something more permanent.
Allergies?
S5 E5Masquerade
Okay, party's over; you don't have to go home, but you can't stay here!
What's wrong, was the music too loud?
No, the furniture was too on fire.
At least your residents acknowledge your existence. Mine don't even know I'm here. I get more respect from this rubber arm.
S5 E6Stuck On You
Do you know any deaf people, Dr. Benton?
No. No, I don't.
Have you ever thought that being deaf might not be so terrible?
So, you're saying there's no problem?
You can never know what it's like to be deaf. Just like I can never know what it's like to be black.
I don't look at me being black as a burden. That's who I am.
And I don't look at my deafness as a burden. That's who I am. If you turn away from your son's deafness, you will be robbing him of his identity.
My son has a medical problem. I'm not turning away from anything. I'm trying to fix it.
S5 E7Hazed and Confused
If you don't mind me saying, I'm one of the baddest ER bitches out there.
S5 E8The Good Fight
[on the hospital's rooftop] Hi.
Thought you went home.
No - we're on in an hour. It's better not to sleep unless you can get at least three.
I wouldn't sleep anyway.
The crit's up three points, but the renal failure may be permanent. That's if she wakes up.
[Upset] I thought we were saving her.
No... we were giving her her only chance...
That's not good enough!
It has to be.
No, it doesn't.
Some patients get to you more than others, I know. But when you do everything that you can, sometimes even more than you thought you could, you've got to walk away knowing you fought the good fight. You fought the good fight, Lucy. [pauses] Tomorrow you'll fight another one.
S5 E9Good Luck, Ruth Johnson
Carter! I am not your mother! Now, for the last time, get up!
100 bottles of beer on the wall, 100 bottles of beer take one down pass it around 100 bottles of beer on the wall.
I've never heard one go on this long.
Seems like forever.
He can't even count, never drops to 99, 98, just back to 100.
So you don't mind that he's loud and smells bad, just that he can't sing the song right.
100 bottles of beer on the wall... Sorry it's catchy.
Who's on?
General Lee but she's in a meeting with Anspaugh.
I hope you aren't calling her that to her face.
Our new chief of emergency services, would I do something like that?
We need to pop this guy some Ativan and put him out of our misery.
Yes, I believe there is someone asleep in the on-call room.
Wake them up.
I can't leave the desk.
Then find someone that can wake them up.
We've got work to do.
Mark time to get up.
I'll be right there...
Mark let's go it's 7:00.
I'm up, I'm up.
Hey Mark I don't want to have to throw cold water on you.
Oh, Doug is that you?
[Doug uses an air horn to wake him up]
Hey, you about ready?
About deaf. That wasn't really necessary Doug.
Well, I know, but I do it to Carol every morning.
S5 E10The Miracle Worker
What the hell do you think you're doing operating on my patient?
Saving his life. [to himself] You jerk.
Get me a gown and gloves now! And Peter get your hands out of my patient.
Okay, give me a little suction here.
Sucker's clogged.
Yeah, it's a cranberry.
Gloves Shirley, gloves. [Enters OR] Where the hell is she?
Who?
Who do you think? What d'you do, give her extra work to hang her up here?
I have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
Step away.
Alright.
[He does so]
Who gave you permission to start without me?
He was going into septic shock.
You are a resident Peter, you don't take a piss without getting permission. And where the hell's Lizzie, off doing your scut?
She left an hour ago.
What the hell d'you use to make this incision, a chainsaw?
[to Benton, about Romano] He's been drinking.
What?
He's drunk.
Go, call Anspaugh now.
Just finishing up my disciplinary report, recommending that your residency be terminated for operating without an attending.
Hmm, if you turn that in I'll be forced to defend myself.
Hmm, well good luck Peter.
That'll mean I'll have to turn in these labs showing that your blood alcohol level was .12. You shouldn't have even been driving, let alone operating on someone.
Don't bluff me Peter. [rolling up his sleeves to show his arms as proof] You didn't draw my blood.
Not from there.
[Romano checks his thighs]
Jerry, next time you want to make an ass out of yourself, leave me out of it. OK?
S5 E11Nobody Doesn't Like Amanda Lee
Edie?
Oh, Dr. Greeene, I wanna... I want to thank you.
For what? Getting you held hostage by a crazed lunatic?
Oh, I haven't... I haven't felt this good in years.
That's great.
Yeah, I mean, if I can survive this hell-hole, I can survive anything.
Can I call you a cab?
[hurriedly] No. No. No, I think I'm just gonna walk.
