All language subtitles for Carols Second Act s01e16_English

I didn't even know you could
fit a pine cone in there.

Oh, you can fit it in,

but only a medical professional
can get it out.

Dr. Frost, Dr. Jacobs.
Any news about Eddie?

Nothing yet, but you
can rest assured,

with Dr. Lewis as his surgeon,

he's in great hands.
Meh.

I just mean,
does any surgeon truly deserve

to be called great?

Cut, cut, snip, snip,
a little light sewing.

The whole profession's
basic arts and crafts.

Yes, sir. But if we...But when a magazine

makes a list
of California's sexiest doctors,

you better believe it's surgeons
as far as the eye can see.

I never should have
shown him that article.

Hey, Mom. Any news?

Nothing yet. And the wait
is driving me crazy.

Hey, everyone. Hello, Jenny.

Nice seeing you
for the first time today.

Hmm. You look well.

Ugh, enough. We all
know you're hooking up.

It's obvious.Yeah, you both leave
at the same time

and you show back up
at the same time.

CAROL:
Even I can tell.

The little looks between you,

the walks to the parking garage,
the texts on Jenny's phone.

Mom.

Well, you shouldn't
just leave it in your purse.

Okay, great. You got us.

This is happening.

Okay, so what's happening?

It's casual? It's very
casual? I's almost over?

We're not labeling it, Mom.

We're exploring,
we're discovering.

Ugh, I'm sorry I
asked. That's plenty.

[elevator bell dings]

Everyone.

I'm just realizing that
Dr. Kenney probably expects me

to deliver this news
with balloons or confetti,

but the transplant
was a success.

[cheering]Oh! Thank goodness!

Oh, my God.
You are a miracle worker.Oh. [chuckles]

An absolute miracle worker.
You just saved a man's life.

Can you believe that?
I bet you're jazzed.

Are you jazzed?

I suppose I'm a little jazzed.

Well, you should be. This man
deserves a pat on the back.

He is a hero.No, no, no.
It's thanks to you

that he made it
to surgery at all.

[laughs]:
Dr. Lewis.

I mean, well, that's a very kind
thing of you to say.

I'm embarrassed.
I don't even-- I mean,

wow.I'm going back upstairs.

CAROL:
Yes.

Well, don't be a stranger.

You're welcome back here
any time.

I mean, of course you are.
You work here.

Okay, bye.

[exhales]

LEXIE:
Wow.

You are deeply in
love with that man.

Oh, come on, stop it. Honestly.

I'm just excited
that Eddie is okay.

Mm-hmm. Is Eddie
the reason why you wore

your favorite earrings today?

I definitely noticed
those thirsty little hoops.

Guys, lay off. There are
already enough barriers

to love without the fear
of getting teased.

[sighs]Carol? I hope you find
what we have.

I liked this better
when it was a secret.

♪

[beep]

Knock, knock.

[laughs]:
Eddie, oh, my gosh.

You look great.

Oh, I feel great, too.

I'm thinking of replacing
more of my organs.

[both chuckle]

Maybe start with a kidney,
upgrade the ticker,

then if all goes well,
I'll do my breasts.

[both laugh]

Oh... I don't want you to leave.

Carol, you hold him down,
I'll break his legs.

Aww.

I'm gonna miss you guys, too.

Hey, can I ask
you guys something?

It's a little sentimental.

Sentimental?
You have my attention.

The whole time
I've been cooped up in here,

I've been dreaming of fresh air.

So, when I'm cleared to leave,
the first thing I want to do

is go up to the roof
and raise a toast.

A little thank you
from me to my doctors.

Don't worry, little guy,
it's nonalcoholic.

Oh, Eddie.

You want to toast us
on the roof?

I'm gonna tell you right now,
I will be sobbing.

Frankly, I'm surprised
I'm not already sobbing.

[crying]:
Wait, here it comes.

Think about Daniel
and Jenny hooking up.

[sniffles]
Okay. I'm back.

Oh, Eddie, that would be lovely.
As long as we can avoid

the pigeons
and the trauma helicopters.

Trauma helicopters, filthy
birds, nonalcoholic booze.

What can I say?
I know how to party.

Now tell me, how are things
going with your surgeon?

What?

He's been in the hospital
for three months.

Gossip's all he has.

[sighs]
Okay.

It might be true that I have

an itty-bitty, teensy-weensy,
not even a big deal crush

on Dr. Lewis.

BOTH:
Ooh...
But I-- Okay.

I don't know how he feels.

And he certainly
hasn't expressed any interest.

Well, dating at work
is tough these days.

As a guy, you don't want to do
anything disrespectful,

so sometimes you have
to wait for the woman

to make the first move.

Really? I have
to flirt with him?

Oh, my gosh. I don't know
if I even remember how.

Carol, how long has it been
since you flirted with a guy?

On purpose? 30 years.

Unintentionally? A week.

Caleb had a little piece
of lint on his cheek.

I leaned in to blow it off
and I accidentally kissed him.

Take it from a guy
who stared death in the face:

you got to take your shots.

You'll be great.
Just tell him

it looks like
he's been working out.

Guys love that stuff.

If he flirts back,
you know he likes you.

Oh, well, I just might.

But right now,
you get some rest.

I'm gonna order you
some pain killers.

And a pair of D cups.

[chuckles]

Let's go C.
I want it to look natural.

[laughs]

So, the ER sent you up
for a possible concussion,

but I don't see
any bruises or swelling.

Huh, that's weird,
because I definitely got kicked

in the head
by three different horses.

Before we order an MRI,
would you say you're nauseous?

No, in fact,
I'm pretty hungry.

Hmm. Are you dizzy?

No. Everything's fine, except
for this awful concussion.

Well, you don't have the two
main symptoms of a concussion,

so we can rule that out.

Oh, man, really?

Can you ask me
those questions again?

All right, Greg.
What's going on?

[sighs] The truth is, I'm having
the worst week of my life.

My girlfriend broke up with me.Oof.

While I was proposing.Oof.

Because she's in love
with my best friend.

[both groaning]And while I was in my apartment,

sobbing, my car got stolen.

I was so depressed, I didn't go
to work for three days.

I work at this furniture store,
Danny's...

Oh, that's where I got
my dining room chair.

You bought
one dining room chair?

Uh-huh.

Anyway, my boss was
about to fire me,

but I told him I was sick.

He said to keep my job,
I need a doctor's note.

Oh, I don't know.

Writing a fake doctor's note
is sort of a gray area.

I don't want to get you
guys in trouble. It's just,

if I lose this job,
I lose my insurance.

And that's literally
the only thing I have left.

I-I really would
like to help you.

You seem so pathetic.

Thank you.

Hey, you said you were
feeling depressed, right?

Totally.Oh. Great.

Then we can give you a note
saying you visited the doctor

for a legitimate
medical concern.

Really?Yeah.

Oh, man. You two are the best.

This will just take a minute.

Ah-- There he is.

Carol, are you ready
to get your flirt on?

I don't know, I just finished
my salad, and I think

you're supposed to wait
30 minutes after eating?

Carol, come on. Trust me,
I know from experience.

It'll all be worth it when
you and that special person

get to finally connect both
emotionally and physically...No.

Dude, that is her daughter.Gross.

Okay, listen, I can do this.

I just have to go over there
and be friendly.

No, no, no, no.
Regular Carol is friendly.

He needs to know
that you want a piece of that.

So, when in doubt,
I say lick your lips.

Okay, definitely don't do that.

I like Eddie's advice.
Just compliment his body.

That should be easy.
He has great wrists.

Carol, do not listen to
these amateurs, all right?

Just mention a restaurant
you want to try,

and if he takes the bait,
it means he likes you.DENNIS: Right.

Like, "Hey, are you a fan
of the... Spaghetti Factory?"

You've all been a huge help.

[sighs, mutters]

Okay.

Hi.
Oh.

Sorry, that-that came out
louder than I intended.

Ah. Good to see you, Dr. Kenney.Yeah.

I-I'm sorry. Am I, uh,
blocking the bananas?

Uh, no. Um, I already ate.

Uh, just, uh,
just wanted to say howdy.

Hmm.

Oh. Burrito. Very nice.

It's sort of the sandwich
of Mexico.

Actually, a Mexican sandwich
is a called a torta.

Oh, wow. Neat fact.
[chuckles]

So, um...

Dr. Lewis,
have you been working out?

Excuse me?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean it
as a personal comment.

I-I only ask
because I'm looking for a gym.

For exercise.
Because I've gained weight.

LEWIS:
Really?

Well, have you considered
a low-carb diet?

Well, I would, but I just can't
get enough of those tortas.

The ones I just told you about?

Uh-huh.

Okay.

Oh, um, Dr. Lewis,
speaking of food,

have you heard? There is a
great new sushi restaurant

that opened up just
across the street.

I don't know if you're
a fan of ginger,

but you can have
as much as you want.

Oh.
[chuckles]

Well, I love sushi.

You know what, I should
give it a try. Thanks, Carol.

Oh, darn it.
I'm-I'm getting paged.

Uh, nice seeing you, Dr. Kenney.

[exhales]

[clears throat]

Uh, Carol, uh,

I'm gonna be real:

t-that was terrible.

[sighs]

[moaning]

Oh...

I'm sorry for the sounds
I'm making.

Hold up,
is that a massage chair?

[chuckles]: One of
your patients sent it.

"Thank you for lying for
me and saving my job.

Sincerely, Greg,"

in parentheses, "The Kicked
in the Head by a Horse Guy."

Daniel, vamoose. I want
that cushion to form to mybutt.

Lexie, we need to return it.

Great idea.
Or, hear me out,

we keep it forever.

Lexie, of one...

If we just ask Dr. Frost,
can we skip the speech?

Hey. Massage chair?

Lexie and Caleb got it
as part of a bribe.

You should try it.
It'll make you forget

all about yesterday.

Oh, my God, I can't stop
thinking about that.

It was excruciating.

I have never been
so humiliated.

I mean, I put myself out there
in the most obvious way.

He gave me nothing back.
Not a sign.

At least we know how
he feels about me.

Case closed.

Hey, hey, Carol,
you tried.

Not everybody can say that.

[knock on door]

Dr. Lewis.

Hey, Carol, everyone.

I was just in the neighborhood
and thought

maybe I could fill up in here.

I-I don't want to
interrupt anything.

No, of course not.
Sure. Help yourself.

Thank you.

[whispering indistinctly]

It's nice in here.

I see you have a couch.

Yes, we do.

We call her "Ol' Couchy."

Okay, I will see you later.

See ya.

"Ol' Couchy"?
What is wrong with me?!

Uh, Carol, you're
missing the point.

That was your sign.
He's into you.

Oh, don't be ridiculous.

Why else would he have
come in here?

For a coffee. He told us.

Carol, the surgeons' lounge has

a professional-quality
espresso machine.

We use newspaper
for a coffee filter.

He did not come in here
for the coffee.

He came in here
for the Carol.

Oh, my.

He likes me.

Yeah!Ooh, ooh!

Wait, so he pretended
to stop by for coffee

just so he could see you?
I...

That is the cutest thing
I've ever heard.

I mean, I think he was
even a little nervous.

He complimented our couch.

That garbage couch?

It is garbage. Yeah.

You know, for someone
who once said

they didn't approve of
workplace romances,

you are dangerously close
to being in one.

You think I'm dangerously close?Yes.

Okay, so... what do I do?

I think you should text him.

Text him?

You don't think
that's too forward?

No, it's exactly
forward enough.

I guess it's like Eddie said.
I should just take my shot.

Yeah.
All right.

To craft...
the perfect text.

"Hey..."

Send.

That's really good.

And now we wait.

Okay.

I think when you see this gift,

you'll understand why
we're concerned.

Or you'll be like,
"This is no biggie.

"Lexie was right the whole time.

Pip pip... cheerio."

Your impression of me
has improved, Dr. Gilani.

Now, I do love
a juicy moral dilemma,

so let's see what we've got.

[voice vibrating]:
Oh, my goodness.

Wow, this is troubling.

First of all, Dennis,
stop making eye contact.

And second,

this chair is the gift?

I know. Cool, right?

When you said
"a sizeable gift,"

I thought you meant
a big cake.

This is unprecedented.

Oh, so there's no precedent.
We can keep it.

No. And I'm disappointed
in you both.

You should never accept a gift

in exchange
for medical services.

I'm sorry, Dr. Frost.

Well, what can we do?

For now, I want you
to find the hardest,

most unforgiving chairs
in the cafeteria,

sit in them and think about
what you've done.

So, if they can't keep it,
what are you gonna do?

I'm gonna give this to someone
who really deserves it.

Oh...

God, what was I thinking?

I should never have texted him.

Oh, my God. And "hey"?
That's terrible.

[mockingly]:
"Hey." "Hey!" "Hey..." Idiot.

Mom, it's fine.
It's only been three minutes.

Well...

I mean, that's it.
I'm shutting it down.

Dating is not for me.

I mean, okay, I admit
I was excited by the idea

that a handsome, successful man
might like me.

But dating is just
so uncomfortable.

I mean, what comes next?
We go get martinis.

And then what if we have
nothing to say to each other?

What if he wants to kiss me?

What if he doesn't
want to kiss me?

What if he wants to have sex...

Mom!

It just--
It freaks me out.

And for what?
For the opportunity

to take care of a man
who's sliding down

the wrong side of the hill
into incontinence and dementia.

Okay, this is a full spiral.

[sighs] No, that's it.
Jenny, take my phone.

I don't want to check it
for the rest of the night.

Mom, Dr. Lewis is calling.

Give it to me!

How do I look?It's a phone call.

Yes.

Hey.

Oh.

Yeah. Of course.

Thanks for calling.Oh, no.

Mom, that man is an idiot.

No, no, no.
It's not that.

Our patient Eddie,
he died.

It's like he was never there.

Dr. Jacobs told me
this is the first time

you've lost a patient.

How are you?

A few hours ago, we were
laughing and celebrating.

What happened?

His immune response
was too strong.

It's the hardest part about
this job: the unpredictability.

Ten percent of the time,
the immunosuppressants

just aren't enough.

There's nothing you or any of us
could have done about it.

I-I can't believe how quickly
things move on.

It may seem callous, but death
is a common thing here.

We have a job to do, and
other people to take care of.

I promise, over time,
it does get easier.

Do I want it to get easier?

If you need anything,
I'm around.

Sometimes...
I find it helps me

to take a private moment
to say goodbye in my own way.

Hang in there.

[sighs]

Well, Eddie, you stood me up.

Not cool.

I did steal your bottle
of fake booze, though,

so I guess we can
call it even.

Oh, boy.

I mean, you were cooped up
in that tiny room for months,

and somehow you seemed like
the happiest person

in the hospital.

You know, you just...
you never lost your joy

or your sense of humor.

You just lived
every day to the fullest.

Even if, for the last
little while,

all it meant was
switching the kickers

on your fantasy football team.

[sobs]

I'm gonna miss you.

Dr. Kenney.
Dr. Lewis. Hi.

I'm sorry, I...

[chuckles]

I guess Eddie told you
his plan, too.

I thought they'd thrown
the bottle out.

I had to run
to the corner store.

Seemed important to him.[sighs]

Yeah.

I owe you an apology.

You said that
letting patients in

makes it harder
to do your job,

and you were right.

I should have never
pushed you to do that.

I didn't know
how bad it felt.

Mm.
Yeah.

No, I was glad
that I got to know Eddie.

I...

I haven't felt connected
to a patient like this

in a long time.

Which is funny because
it's sort of the reason

I got into medicine
in the first place.

So thank you.
Oh, you're...

you're welcome.

You actually have had
quite an effect on me.

In fact, I actually
feel like doing things

that I normally wouldn't.

Oh, really? Like what?

[helicopter approaching]

Trauma helicopter!Get down!

I can't believe
Eddie's gone.

This isn't gonna be
the last time this happens.

But we'll be here
for each other.

If either of you need me to
mentor you through this,

I'm here.

Daniel, I'm older than you.

But I'm wise.

I just hope Carol isn't
taking this too hard.

[elevator bell dings]

What the heck happened?

Nothing.

Just... nothing.

[elevator bell dings]

Oh, I see what happened.
