Hey, Jose, where did you learn a swab a deck?

On the good ship, lollipop?

Look, you push the mop out in front of you.

Then, before you draw it back, you flip it over so you're always working with a clean surface.

And it wouldn't hurt to have a little clean water in the bucket, right?

We've got to get this place looking spick and span for Ebenezer Wright, our liaison with Magna Fujiyama.

See, just push it out, flip it over, then you pull it back with a clean surface.

Oh, for crying out loud, lard butt, I just mopped there.

Forgive me, I'm on a quest for Mark Craig.

Uh, Mr. Wright?

No, mister, please, call me Ed.

You know, ever since the city sold St. Eligius to your health maintenance

organization, our staff has been hopping from foot to foot.

There's a certain amount of anxiety about the speech you're going to make today.

I can understand why, but once we see which way the wind's blowing, we'll be

able to unleash the falcon and see where it soars.

Uh-huh.

But who's going to clean up the mess?

This is a metaphysical bird we're flipping here.

All right.

No, call me Ed.

Visitor's pass.

VIP.

Visitor's pass.

Airplanes always freak my sinuses.

Listen, Ed, did you get a chance to look over the staffing and patient projections I sent over?

It's a needless act.

Paper is so much pulp.

I intend to walk the halls and from the feelings I sense, I'll be able to

understand the direction St. Eligius will take.

You know, I think there's a great future here for all of us.

The future was built upon the past.

Whoa.

Something the matter?

Strong vibes.

Very strange.

Dr. Auschlander, I give you... the womb.

A protective receptacle for the regeneration of the species.

May all who enter here feel safe.

Mr. Corey, we need to talk.

Probably routine maintenance.

Let's take the staircase up to Dr. Westphall's office.

The climb is good for us.

Ah. Confused relationships.

I thought you and Roberta worked out all your problems.

I wish.

Do this, do that, go there, stay here.

Whenever someone tells me how to run my life, man, I rear back.

Try being taken for granted.

How about being called a jackass over the hospital PA system?

I can still hear the snickering.

Yeah, she has absolutely no idea what I do for a living.

That's what happens when you have nothing in common.

Oh, yeah.

You mean like her insisting on an appearance at the fundraiser after the kind of day we put in today?

Exactly.

This whole relationship is a big mistake.

It's right up there with Napoleon's invasion of Russia and the Watergate tapes.

Well, that's not exactly true.

I mean, she's a funny, intelligent, sexy woman.

Yeah, but would you want to spend the rest of your life with her?

Worth a try.

Craig says once you're stuck, man, you are stuck for good.

What's the difference what Craig thinks?

I mean, it's not his life.

You're right, man.

That does it.

I'm gonna go home and tell her.

Yeah, tonight's the night.

My mind's made up.

Mine, too.

I'm getting divorced.

Still huffing and puffing from that trek upstairs.

I thought selling the St. Eligius was just a rumor.

No, Candor, have you treated me like a cabaret?

Is your relaxed attitude typical of Magna Fujiyama?

Unfortunately, no, but they've come to rely upon my hospital evaluation.

They find my aura very pure.

This room, I can dig it.

It's peace, calm, wisdom.

You've got one hell of a nerve sticking your face in people's business, family business.

You beat up your son, O'Connor.

What goes on between me and my boys is no concern of yours.

You smashed his nose, you broke his ribs, he lost a kidney, you're lucky he didn't die.

I know you people, I know what you're trying to do.

You doctors think you're something special, better than people like me.

Well, let me tell you something, Westphall.

I love my boys, what we've got, you can't touch.

I've been a good father to them ever since their mother died.

It ain't been a day gone by that they ain't had clean clothes and a decent meal, and it ain't been easy.

I grew up with people like you, O'Connor.

I know how tough it's been for you.

But you're not the only one in this world that ever lost a job.

Or a wife.

Talk about love and family and respect.

You don't even know what the hell those words mean.

All you know is you're angry.

You have to hit people.

And the sickest part of it is, you take it out on the people you supposedly care the most about.

Oh, why don't you shove that dime store shrink talk?

I hate people like you, you know that?

And I'm telling you something right now.

I'm gonna do everything in my power to stop you from doing any more damage to that boy.

For you you're gonna swing on me you want to hit me wouldn't you feel a little more

comfortable with a baseball bat in your hand I learned to fight the same place you

did pally boy and there's nothing I'd like better right now than to tear you apart uh

I don't mean to bother you um the staff meeting where when I'm really sorry about

what happened Jack I got a call from Paul lochner he's my counterpart over at Porter

general yeah I'm being traded I'm afraid it's bad news What's the news, Jack?

Your wife has had an accident.

An accident?

Nina's dead, Jack.

What?

I can't tell you how sorry I am.

What happened?

Well, I'm, uh, I'm not sure of the details, sir.

Paul said she suffered a massive cerebral hemorrhage from a fall.

And where is she?

She's still at Porter General.

I want to see her.

Why don't you let me drive you?

No, no, no, no, you've got things to do.

No trouble, Jack.

It's okay.

No, I have to see Nina.

I want her to pick up the baby.

Nina said she'd bring him to the palm of her hand just because she had to work.

She started back in the newspaper last week, you know.

Jack, sit down for a second.

No, I should get going.

Well, let me drive you.

I'm fine.

Really.

I'll need to get someone to cover for me.

I'll take care of it.

And I promised Mrs.

So, she wants the wedding to be Greek Orthodox.

Shut it up, Elliot.

You're the only person I've told.

Besides, there's nothing Orthodox about either of us.

This party should celebrate a relationship.

Not her family's getting rid of an old maid.

Luther, I'm telling you, he came to my apartment.

Moats was in the same room with my family.

What am I going to tell him?

He hasn't done anything yet.

By the time he does, it'll be too late.

I think Detective Zito's kind of cute.

He's Italian, too.

Make my mom happy.

He's too young for your mother.

Anyway, please aren't here for the benefit of your social life.

We have a mercy killer running around.

What are you looking for?

Or.

Roxanne, I don't want her to see me if I don't have to.

Not bridging those troubled waters?

Believe me, Seth, never fall in love with people you work with.

Oh, don't worry, I'm not that stupid.

Is this thing on?

Today's a red-letter day in the hallowed halls of St. Eligius.

A representative of Magna Fujiyama Incorporated, known throughout this

country for their quality health care and fine transistor radios, is here to give us an overview of the company plans.

Plans.

And so, without much ado, the vice president of medical facilities,

Ebenezer, be right.

Ev, call me Ev.

As I look around this room here, I like what I see.

Wavy gravy, a meal you can really sink your teeth into.

Oh no, he's still here.

What's the matter?

This guy asked for spaghetti and meat sauce.

I tell him it's cold.

He says I don't care, so I give him the spaghetti It's all spaghetti and meat sauce, it goes bananas!

Sauce has garlic in it, I can't eat garlic!

All spaghetti sauce has garlic in it.

But vampires can't stand this stuff.

Help me, Dr. Axelrod, please, I beg you.

I am slowly losing the power of reason, I can't help myself.

Stop me.

Stop me before I need to suck blood from some poor unsuspecting damsel.

Elliot, get this guy up to psych and admit him, he's your patient.

Just dump him on the street somewhere or give him spaghetti with no sauce.

Take it easy.

Dr. Axelrod is going to take very good care of you.

Why me?

Why is it always me?

It's cool that you're all terrified that the concerns of a large corporation will change the spirit of St. Eligius.

But to be perfectly up front, I want you people to know that there are a lot of

deadheads, and I don't mean Jerry Garcia, on the board of Magna Fugiam are pretty bummed out behind this purchase.

What I want you to know, I'm your biggest fan.

I really believe in what you do here.

And in occlusion, I like to say this.

My chest is about to explode.

Whoa, it's blue.

I'm a bit depressed myself.

It's a new pulse.

Watch your back.

Come in, sir.

Big video you're not looking to hand here look at her collapse the cafeteria no wonder today salivary He was in VTAC.

Got him back to normal sinus risk.

Still complaining of severe chest pain.

Okay, Novino, get a 12 lead, Griffin, CBC, fill gases, boomer lights,

Elliot, you just try and stay out of the way.

Sir, have you ever felt pain like this before?

Yeah, where were you?

August 8th, 1985.

Whose.

Tail is this?

It's Big Snoopy's.

And who are you?

I'm Little Snoopy.

Can you help me patch Big Snoopy's tail?

This is an emergency.

This is an emergency.

Do you want thousands of kids to watch this?

Big Snoopy diet, slow death on national television?

Yeah!

Daniels, Snoopy suits your staff.

How is he?

Not responding to morphine and IV nitro.

EKG shows lateral ST elevation.

I'll get the cath team ready.

Why?

The sun sets on us all.

This isn't Steven.

This isn't my son.

Son.

It's not him, Mark.

Mark, we have to go and find Stephen.

If he's hurt, you'll be able to help him.

Barely even 10 milligrams, I am.

Helen, it's not him.

You know Stephen, he's handsome.

My son has gorgeous green eyes, and he has hair that keeps falling on his face.

His father teases him all the time about I'm getting a haircut.

He left from our house tonight.

He's on his way to Columbus.

He's a resident at OSU.

Let's find someplace where we can talk.

He's my only child.

He wouldn't leave me.

Geodesic domes, whole earth catalogs, Free Bobby, and Huey, and Dewey, and Louie.

Can you hear that sound?

Can you hear the music?

The simple melting of the bud horn.

Which way are you headed?

Up well then I think you're gonna enjoy my next number hit it what goes up must come

down spinning wheel got to go round talking about your troubles it's a crying

sin ride a painted pony let the spinning wheel spin oh I forgot something on the on

call Oh, I'm sorry to wake you, Elliot.

That's okay.

No, no,

no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, I hear old voices like an Indian burial ground.

Let me check your abdomen, Mrs. Huffnagel.

You lay a finger on me, Butch, I'll be calling Miami Vice.

Nursing.

My new career.

I can't stand it.

The patients never shut up.

My back aches.

The coffee was cold.

My tray's not right.

Was it such a big deal to fluff my pillow?

I'm not talking to you, Mrs. Huffnagel.

Why do you think the nurses went on strike?

They don't like doing scut either.

Yeah, but they do it a whole lot better than him.

Lighten up, would you please?

I mean, I've had patients spit pills at me, call me names, throw up on me.

It was only a little phlegm.

Look, uh, Dr. Poe was called out of town.

I've been assigned to your case.

I'm Dr. Chandler.

You're my new doctor?

Yes, ma'am.

Check, please.

Don't worry, Mrs. Huffnagle, you're gonna be okay.

Ha!

Don't you come near me!

This man has tried to kill me with rat poison.

It was phenobutazone for her phlebitis.

Rat poison.

Going down to X-ray.

You'll be getting a barium enema.

N-O.

Nobody touches the Booty.

The thing I can't figure out is how they can let you run a hospital.

What do you mean?

You're a jinx.

Mrs. Huffnagel.

Not to think of it, this whole place is jinxed.

Auschlander's about ready to kick the bucket.

Morrison got his degree from a crackerjack box.

And behind those sensible wrinkles, your life's a mess.

You have an aneurysm.

It's a weakening in the wall of the heart, and it's extremely dangerous.

I don't care.

Care if you did win the Cushing Left Anterior Descending Artery Award.

How do you know I won an award?

Because I saw the plastic cast of your hands.

What were you doing in my office?

Well, I'm surprised they let you keep them after Eve Leighton's heart went back to Nina.

Ah, you Greeks are sure a distrustful lot.

Cradle of democracy, my eye.

Don't tell me that Onassis wasn't trying to make a run for the White House by marrying Jackie.

Jackie.

Anything for a laugh, huh, Ms. Huffnagle?

Ms. Huffnagle?

Ms. Huffnagle?

Damn.

Don't raise the bed, okay?

I'm just checking your blood pressure.

Everyone gets the same treatment here, don't they?

But I told you they're going to take pictures of my feet, didn't I?

Yeah.

So what?

You're making a big to-do and upsetting everybody.

And everything.

I forgot.

Oh, you'd forget your head if it wasn't screwed under your shoulders, wouldn't you?

Yeah.

Where were you anyway?

I went to the shelter.

I went to look for Frankie.

It was me and Dollar.

He pay you?

He said maybe tomorrow.

Yeah, sure.

Who smacked you?

Huh?

Who smacked you?

You got a big thing on your head.

That damn Charlie hit me with a bottle.

Hospital.

Don't you have the sense to run?

Didn't hurt much.

They take your blood, they put it in bottles, and they sell it gory.

That's not blood, Arnie.

That's medicine.

The doctor said I'm very sick, Arnie.

Dr. Nice, I said my feet gotta be cut off.

My feet are dead and just poisoning my legs.

This is what they do, Corey.

This is what they do.

No.

It's not the hospital's fault.

I could have run from Charlie.

I could have run.

Corey.

Corey, please, let's go home.

I'll soak your feet up.

I'll take care of you.

Please, Corey, please.

Let's go home.

They're gonna cut off my feet!

Don't you understand anything?

You can't go running around like a chicken without a head because I can't chase after you no more.

I gotta run!

I gotta run!

Cory?

Cory?

Cory!

Arnie, hey!

Arnie, it's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

Everything's okay.

Yes uh mr Wright was presented in ventricular tachycardia with unstable

angina bypass is indicated only he's chosen to skip surgery I'm not being

cavalier about this this incarnation has run its course it's time to change

channels it's a matter of attitude eb be merry then you're gonna make it after all.

Swan swan the happy homemaker bridge had me confused with someone else I'm Mary you know Mary Sorry!

Sorry.

Mrs. Wright, if your husband doesn't follow our instructions, it's very likely

that his next heart attack is going to kill him.

I'm so glad Eb is here.

He was really looking forward to visiting you.

I'm confident you'll do everything to help him.

Mrs. Wright.

Well, call me Marley.

It's very important that you convince your husband that this surgery is necessary.

It won't be easy.

Yeah, I know.

Warden chagley thinks it's time you started chemotherapy I'm feeling all right

Donald really I am you collapsed in the middle of grand rounds I'm not a child to

be plucked over and cared for I'm not an invalid to be whispered about behind my

back Daniel I know better than anyone what's going on inside my body please have

the decency to pay me that respect I've treated hundreds of cases like mine before.

Do you think maybe in this case your vision might be a little clouded?

I'm as strong as I ever was.

As alert.

As capable.

No one's doubting that.

Look, I appreciate your concern.

I know it's terrifying.

I know that.

I can face the pain that goes with the injections The fever, the nausea,

the diarrhea that goes along with chemotherapy But what I hate is that as

the chemotherapy kills the cancer I will grow weaker and weaker You saw me on the

tennis court this morning, I played as well as ever, better center.

Well, I'm not ready to put my life in mothballs.

What man wants to cease to function as he chooses?

What man wants to hand himself over to such a life?

The bottom line, my friend, is that chemotherapy will buy you time.

Advantage Westphall.

I'll do it.

Excuse me.

I think the rat should be left alone.

Honey.

Hi, baby.

Let's meet the monkey.

Oh, ducky.

I'm puzzled by your behavior.

I do crosswords in pen.

Do I look like someone who needs help?

Yes.

Come on, try me.

All right.

23 across, 8 letters, plastic silverware.

Oh, oxymoron.

Yeah, a rhetorical figure in which contradictory terms are combined.

10 across, unnamed gadget or trinket, 6 letters.

Quavo.

How do you spell that?

Q-U-A-W-O-R.

Yeah, that's what the Aboriginal tribes of Borneo used for barter.

Oh my, that's a scary place, Borneo.

Yeah, I lost a lot more there than traveler's checks.

A little less.

What are you doing?

I said less, not green.

Don't you know the difference?

Get up and fix the TV yourself.

What's the matter with you?

I'm in a tent.

I'm sick.

You know that, don't you?

Your legs aren't broken.

Herschel, you're doing it again.

Do you want me to leave?

I'm telling you to leave.

Wait a minute.

First, put the TV set back on and and fix the collar.

Good morning.

I won't.

I'll just go.

How are you feeling this morning, Mr. Milstein?

Not so good.

Mr. Milstein, I'll want you in your room in an hour for pre-op medication.

Is it going to hurt?

Is it going to hurt?

Listen to him.

I'm sick and he's complaining.

Get off my back.

Have you two always been like this?

He's still mad about the time.

Don't say it.

Don't say it.

Joe, you're still mad about Niagara Falls.

That's it.

That's it.

I'm going to teach him a lesson.

How do I get out of this?

Take it easy now.

I'll get leeched.

I'll go to Mexico and I'll eat apricot pits, but I'm not going to go through with this.

I'm not... Just, let's call it off.

Unzip the tent.

I don't want his damn bone marrow.

Your brother's making a big sacrifice for you.

Yeah!

This is going to be more painful for him than for you.

Yeah, it will.

This is a risky business, but I'm a top gun and we'll cruise through.

Put him under.

My legs hurt.

Get over here, Ehrlich.

Clinic.

Victor Ehrlich.

Thank you, sir.

Can somebody take this?

To stick their cancer isn't a joking matter for a man your age, Dr. Ehrlich.

Do you examine yourself once a month?

No.

You should.

Not now, Ehrlich.

Yes, sir.

Upstairs, when I was convinced I had to make him understand

that life is just too beautiful to miss one multicolored moment.

I can attest.

I told him we should see our daughters grow and our house with two cats in the yard.

Life used to be so hard.

Oh, besides, he only needs two more years to qualify for the pension plan.

Are you going to be all right down here while the surgery's going on?

Yes.

You know, we've been agnostics since 69.

I never told Eb that I'd kept this.

You know, I think that in any other circumstances, you and I'd probably get along very well.

Yeah.

Yeah.

I don't think our views on life are very different.

Only our views on death.

I know Sister Teresa's going to a better place.

You see, I don't even believe in an afterlife.

All I trust in is the here and now.

When did you stop believing?

When you became a doctor?

No, it was a long while after that.

My wife was in an accident.

Well, I called it an accident.

The church would call it part of a greater plan.

In any case, Maureen ended up lying in a hospital bed.

And the only thing that told me that she was still alive was an electronic impulse on a monitor.

I had two small children and I was scared.

I didn't know what to do.

So I went to our parish priest and he responded the same way you did.

I put her life in God's hands.

And I lost her.

At the time, that seemed right.

I even grew to accept it.

But in the years since then, I've seen case after hopeless case where patients,

because of one doctor's faith in medicine, came back to life.

So you see that the question that keeps eating away at me is why?

Why was I so willing not to trust what I knew?

If I had waited, the only woman I ever truly loved might still be here with me.

Sir, if I do say so myself, I'm doing a crackerjack job.

You start taking Mr. Wright off the bypass machine, and you stop shooting off your mouth.

Dr. Morgan, read the history, please.

Cause of death, severe head trauma, resulting in massive brain hemorrhage,

shortage, admitted, Porter General, ER, 9.17 A.M., time of death, 9.30 A.M.

, donor, white, female, weight 125 pounds, age 28, name, Morrison, Nina I.

I should have been there.

Jack, if I had been there, none of this would have happened.

But you weren't.

Yeah, because I was here.

Like every other morning.

While she was feeding Peter, getting ready to go to the sitters, so she could go to work, I was here.

And for what?

So I could be a big hot shot, big hot shot, save people's lives.

I couldn't even save my own wife.

Jack, it was not your fault.

She fell in the bathroom and hit her head.

It was a stupid accident.

And if I'd been there to help, it would not have happened.

Have happened?

She wouldn't have been running around doing everything herself because I could have helped.

I should have been there.

Went better than expected.

Super.

Dr. Craig.

Wait a minute, Ehrlich.

Once again, the pluck of St. Eligius plucked someone out of the jaws of death.

There's major trouble brewing.

There's no movement on his left side.

What?

Mr. Wright's having a stroke.

Get Neuro down.

Down here, stat, okay.

This is Monica.

Don't look at me like I'm crazy, because I got a legitimate grievance here.

I'm going to open the hernia sac and identify the bowel content.

You just tell us what the problem is.

I want you to get the doctor who did this and bring him back here.

Did what?

This!

Dr. Finnan got you pregnant?

No!

No, my husband got me pregnant!

And then 10 years.

I never so much as looked at another guy.

I wouldn't have had time even if I wanted to.

What did Dr. Finnan do?

What did he do?

It's what he didn't do.

A year ago, he's supposed to give my husband a vasectomy.

Obviously, he didn't know what he was doing.

Mrs. Moniker, please put the gun down.

I want you to go and get that bastard and bring him back here with you.

I know we can straighten this all out if you'll just follow me to my office.

I'm going nowhere.

I want you to get that bastard and bring him right here, right now.

I know you'll get hurt.

It's not going to help at all.

Discussions are closed, mister.

You bring him to me.

You hear me?

Me.

I hate rock and roll.

Do you want to take a break?

I'd love to.

Sleeping?

You're all working so hard for him.

I really I really appreciate that.

Dr. Craig said the stroke could have been caused by a number of things.

Blood clot in the heart, brain lesions.

I'm afraid your husband's got a long way to come back.

Let's go outside and get some air.

Come on.

Elliot, this isn't working.

Let's call it.

Are you kidding?

And be remembered as the guy who killed Santa Claus?

Claire.

Care.

I can see it in the history books now.

John Wilkes Booth, Sir Hans Sirhan, Elliot Axelrod, not this Jew.

Clear!

Eb's dead.

Send him down to the morgue.

I'll break the news to us.

How do you give my regards to your husband?

Leonard died last spring.

Oh, I'm sorry.

He was I was walking over to Brigham's with my beautiful collie laddie to pick me up a pint of mocha chip.

Leonard liked vanilla himself.

A simple man deserves a simple ice cream.

Coming back, they got killed by a hit-and-run car.

Hit-and-run, that's what the police told me.

You never know.

Now, at least my laddie is always with me.

He's stuffed.

And staff.

Uh, did you have your husband stuffed, too, Miss Petter?

Oh, no, I had Leonard cremated.

His ashes are on the mantle in the living room.

What do you think I am, sick?

You killed my husband!

You You would have come and killed my husband.

I understand.

I know.

See, all the pathophysia.

I'm getting hysterical.

I can't think of what I'm helping.

You wait!

You have to think of your own health.

Wait!

You have my hearing.

Woo!

It seemed like a nice guy.

I tried.

What?

I didn't say anything.

Is Dr. Giave here?

No.

No, he went to the health club.

Well, he was supposed to have the results on the Nielsen autopsy.

Oh, the man who died sitting with his family watching television?

Yeah.

Here you go, sir.

Thanks.

This is incomplete.

Why, Wayne?

Well, there's no indication of which show he was watching.

My guess is cable.

They play all the really good movies on cable.

I love lying in bed, watching.

There are no interruptions.

Uh-huh.

Um, well, bye, Kath.

Wayne, wait.

Have you ever seen the French lieutenant's woman?

It's on tonight.

I saw her.

Can you ever forget the look on Meryl's face when she was standing on the quay,

a lone figure on a windswept car, waiting for her man to return?

Then she turned, and Jeremy saw her for the first time.

Wayne, can I be frank?

You can be anybody you want.

Please.

I want to bare my soul to you.

I saw the way you were looking at me in the cafeteria.

Like you used to, before.

Oh, damn it, Wayne.

Ever since that night when I walked out of your apartment, all I think of-Kathy, Kathy, you are not interested in me.

You are just obsessed with sex.

Yes, I am.

But only with you, Wayne.

You're better than Tony and David and Scott and Steve even Gary I still wear

your heart close to mine well look Kathy I gotta go please don't no you don't

understand I am in the middle of the beginning of a very nice relationship with

Shirley Daniels and anything that might happen between us right now Now we'll screw that up.

And I don't want to screw that up.

No, Kathy.

No, Kathy.

Kathy.

Kathy.

Get back home.

I remember.

The day will come when you shall be called to account for what you have done to me.

Are you afraid?

No.

I want you to be afraid.

I want you to be afraid.

I'm not afraid anymore.

No, no, what is that for?

It's for all of us.

What are you talking about?

Is this where you raped Kathy Martin?

Don't be crazy.

You were going to rape me, weren't you?

You were coming on to me.

I thought we were just having a little fun, you know.

Like the other women had fun?

Now look, Shirley.

Get out of here.

Nervous?

Shirley?

Now you know what it feels like.

Now please, this is... Now I want you to be afraid.

Did you hit them?

What did you make them do?

I didn't, I didn't touch them.

I don't want to hear your lies anymore.

I didn't touch them!

Say it, Peter.

Say it.

You raped them.

Please.

Say it!

I raped them.

All right, all right.

I'll go.

I'll turn myself in, okay?

All right.

Bye, Peter.

Well, we go to the corporation's directors and tell them exactly what happened.

We killed the poor man.

Oh, come on, Paulette.

You saw the autopsy report.

Wright was injected with a lethal dose of potassium chloride, obviously by this mercy killer.

He was our only ally with Magna Fugiyama.

Mark, you're being very quiet.

You're usually so opinionated.

I'm the one who contacted the HMO.

This is all my fault.

Mrs. Huffnagle's death was a direct result of a surgical error.

Cura, small neck in the mitral papillary muscle, which gradually ruptured during the post-op period.

In other words, I'm responsible for Mrs. Huffnagle's death.

My father always said, one life, one day in that life, is as precious as any other.

We lose patients for a lot of reasons that we can't control.

But when we lose a patient because of our own ineptitude, it's unforgivable.

I want to apologize to you all.

I made a mistake.

I'm sorry.

We'll proceed to the next case.

Dr. Cavanaro?

Referral.

Mrs. Wright's going to sue us for malpractice.

Oh, my God.

That's the good news.

The bad?

His head.

It's gone.

Arm.
