Grace and Kara in “Unfinished Business”

My mother used to always say that good would be rewarded with grace. But when I became a surgeon, I finally saw the truth. There is no reward for being good.

Kara

Whatever is happening to you doesn't give you power over who lives. Only over who dies. You don't want that. [holds out her hand] We can stop it.

[takes Kara's hand] Stop it. Why would I ever want to stop it? This is the greatest thing that's ever happened to me. I don't have to worry about saving anyone anymore because I don't want to. [shoves Kara's hand away]

Kara

No.

I get to choose who dies.

Kara

Grace.

They say that surgeons have a God complex, but it's simple. [speaks in Pestilence's voice] I. Am. A god!
