Dr. Copelan and McCoy in “Positive”

CDr. Copelan

How many people have you watched wither away and die, Mr. McCoy?

You didn't want to suffer her fate, so you pushed her treatment until it was lethal. Isn't that true, doctor?

CDr. Copelan

How many nights have you sat by a dying child's bedside, praying that a treatment might work?

But for the child, doctor? Or for yourself?

CDr. Copelan

I did what I thought was right to save a young girl from a wasting hell. Did I hope it might help my chances? Yes, I did. For Emily, for me, for thousands of others. Yes, Mr. McCoy, I admit that.
