on a farm downstate,

so I've been thinking about
more than just water.

Maybe contaminated soil,

but this time of year,
there's not a lot of gardening.

Hm. Well, it is Christmas.
What about Christmas trees,

with everyone bringing them home?

Yeah, I thought about that as well,

but Harold and Lydia Rosenblatt?

I mean, they're Jewish, right?

Would they get a Christmas tree?

Harold may be Jewish,

but I know for a fact,
he celebrates Christmas.

Huh...

Our job is to treat patients,
not to bankrupt them.

The man died in the waiting room.

After which you had him transferred

to a trauma room
and thoroughly examined.

Okay, "Position fee,
room charge, supplies,

maintenance to clean
and sterilize the room"

These charges are all legitimate.

His wife has suffered enough.

Can't we just look the other way

on some of these things?

You know as well as I do,
the E.D. is hemorrhaging money,

and you wanna hand out freebies?

I'm just asking to adjust the bill.

Ms. Goodwin...

what's the big deal?
His insurance will cover this.

And what if he doesn't have insurance?

Then they'll cry poverty

and negotiate a lower bill.

That's how it's done.

At least we'll look responsible.

Responsible?

Fiscally responsible.

Ms. Goodwin...

I'm looking out for you.

[tense music]

Get away from me! No one is safe!

Kramer, you need to come with us.

Listen to me, the demons are here!

Detective, what are
you doing to my patient?

Dr. Charles, you don't understand.

- Why didn't you page me?
- You said I'd be safe.

Dr. Charles, let us do our job.

No, no, you give me a moment
and let me do mine.

Vince, nobody's gonna hurt you.

I'm not gonna let 'em
hurt you, all right?

You can't stop them! [grunts]

- Call a code silver!
- [paddles whirring]

- Get away from me!
- Vince, look at me,

- look at me.
- You lied to me.

No, I didn't lie to you, I promise.

There's been a big misunderstanding.

Vince, look at me, look at me.
Right here. Nobody else.

Ignore everybody else. Look at me.

What I need you to do,

I need you to lower the paddles, okay,

so we can talk this out.

I promise you,
everything is gonna be okay.

All right?

Daniel, stop. You were shocked.

Let me check your

Dr. Charles, you could've been killed.

Where are you taking him?
What are the charges?

- Stop him. Can't you stop him?
- No.

And the what the hell were you
thinking, risking your life?

It's a police matter.

How did it become a police matter?

- He's my patient.
- Let me explain...

Look, what, that is
a good idea to lock a man up

who's in serious need,
uh, of... of treatment?

Put him behind bars, blow any
chance we have of helping him?

He stabbed a priest.

Goodwin.

I'm her secret Santa, all right,

I'm really glad you shared that with me.

is take off her shoes.

- House slippers.

I'll help you pick 'em out.

Sharon, I mean, what the hell?

You blackmailed the board?

All I did was explain that
it'd be very bad publicity

if it got out that we gave Santa's widow

a bill for $16,000

one week before Christmas.

If it got out.

The board took that as a threat.

- What are they gonna do?
- Well, they got no choice

- Good.

No, it's not good,

They're not happy, and believe me,

they would have no qualms
about replacing you

with someone who would
gladly bill Santa,

the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy.
