'Mark?'

'What are you doing?'

Uh, playing Tetris.

It's 5:30 in the morning.

'Yeah, I couldn't sleep.'

This wouldn't have
anything to do

with your father
arriving today?

No, of course not.

You know, you'd feel
a whole lot worse

if he spent
the holidays alone.

Yeah, what would
Thanksgiving be

without turkey and guilt?

God, I hope we can fake
at getting along.

I just hope
he'll be comfortable

with our sleeping arrangements.

Yeah, him and me in here

and you out on the couch.

Stop it!

Peter! Peter, wake up!

‐ How long was I asleep?
‐ How should I know?

I just came on.
We need you now!

Ssh! Okay, alright, damn.

‐ Watch your back!
‐ 'Peter, rough night on call?'

‐ Yeah, we got slammed.
‐ Yeah.

Nothing like a trauma
to get the juices flowing.

‐ Ready, and lift.
‐ What happened?

Choir bus from Louisville
got hit by a semi.

‐ Louisville?
‐ Yeah.

They drove up
for a gospel festival.

This blunt abdominal trauma
may need surgery.

I'm assigning him
to you, Dr. Benton.

‐ Assigning him?
‐ I am the triage officer.

You need to let me know what's
going on with your patients.

‐ Oh, God, this is a nightmare.
‐ He's a senior.

He requested
more responsibility.

Hey, let me know
if you need help.

Righto, the blood bank
is running low on O‐neg.

So let's all try and go easy.
Give me the bullet.

Twenty‐six‐year‐old
woman complains

of neck pain and mid‐line
tenderness. No LOC.

‐ Vitals?
‐ Stable.

Let's shoot a lateral c‐spine

and leave her on the back board
until I can come in

and clear the X‐ray myself!

Whatever you say, John.

Chuny, where are you going?

Taking this lady
for an ankle X‐ray.

Wait, she might not need it.

And we don't want
to tie up radiology.

Ow!

‐ Okay, take her to X‐ray.
‐ Good idea.

Lucy, so glad
you could join us.

Sorry, I slept through
my alarm.

I need you in four.

Can't I at least
take my coat off?

No, you cannot.

Angulated colles fracture.

‐ Oh, there's space down here.
‐ Talk to me.

‐ I'm on top of it.
‐ You checked the wrist pulses?

No, I‐I just thought
I'd just amputate.

Dave!

Neuro circ is fine.
Don't worry.

Good! Let's get her something
for the pain.

Get her to X‐ray and get busy
in the suture room, huh?

Yes, maestro.

‐ 'How we doing, Carter?'
‐ Everything's under control!

‐ What have you got?
‐ Chest contusion.

I'm putting her on a monitor
just to be safe.

‐ What's the 12‐lead show?
‐ I just brought her in.

Oh, right. Uh, I got
a space open in exam four!

Do you think I can attend
the emergency

services committee
meeting today?

Carter, one step at a time!

‐ Excuse me, excuse me.
‐ Yeah?

I got to go.

Haleh, can you take
this little guy to..

Patient three needs
the breathing treatment.

‐ Chuny, are you free?
‐ No, gotta run this urine..

‐ Lucy, I need you..
‐ I have an allergic reaction.

I need sub‐Q epi.

If anybody needs me,
we'll be in the men's room.

‐ 'I got it.'
‐ Thanks, Connie.

Appreciate you filling in
at the desk, Carol.

Oh, sure, there's not
much else I can do

except answer phones, anyway.

'Dr. Weaver,
that was Dr. Romano'

'reminding you to bring
all the QA data'

'to the Emergency
Services meeting.'

When don't I?

Carol, remember
to elevate your feet

to reduce the swelling
in your ankles.

Connie, could you give
Carol a stool

so she can put
her feet up, please?

Thank you.

Is there anything
else I can get you?

You know, a carton
of milk would be great.

And I could use some pens.

My pleasure.

Thanks.

Oh‐oh, Connie,
Connie, Connie!

Could you slide
the phone over here?

Great!

I guess I'm all set now.

Morning.

Hey. You're back.

Yeah. Dr. Weaver called me in.

I thought you went
South for the winter.

Soon. Before the first snow.

You look great.

‐ Really?
‐ Yep.

I feel like
an overgrown pumpkin.

‐ Pumpkin?
‐ Yeah.

The big, round, orange thing

you carve on Halloween.

Bundeva. Yeah.
Actually..

I‐I'd say,
more like a lubenica.

What is that?

Uh, I forget how
to say it in English.

See ya.

‐ He's oozing.
‐ Crit's 29.

‐ Want the last unit of O‐neg?
‐ No, no, no.

I've got the bleeding
under control.

Morning, Peter.

Morning.

Laser surgery
on the liver lac?

Yeah, I'm using the argon

to reduce the blood loss.

Would you like me
to scrub in?

No, no, no, I got it.

But I do need
to ask you a favor.

What's that?

I need some time off.

‐ How much time?
‐ I'm not sure.

My custody case
is going to trial.

I don't know how long
it's gonna last.

If you'd be willing to trade
holiday shifts, take extra..

‐ Whatever it takes.
‐ I'll see what I can do.

Dr. Benton, chain reaction
pile‐up off the Roosevelt.

They need you to go
to the scene.

Ah, damn!

Look, you finish up here.
I'll take it.

No, no, no!
I got it.

Peter, even you
can't operate

and fly on a chopper
at the same time.

I owe you.

Your ER Compliance Rate
is a meager 78 percent

for the pneumonia
clinical pathway.

Really, Kerry,
I expected better from you.

This is only
the first month's data.

All the nurses haven't
been in‐serviced yet.

Yeah, well,
let's shoot for a minimum

of 90% next month,
shall we, ladies?

Sorry we're late.

To what do we owe
the unexpected pleasure

of Dr. Carter's company?

Oh, uh, Carter wanted
administrative experience.

So I appointed him

as the new resident
representative.

‐ I thought I told you.
‐ No, you didn't say squat.

Kerry, do you know
anything about this?

Carter asked, I said no.

Oh, so...it appears Dr. Carter

has been playing
mommy against daddy.

I can step out, if you'd
like to discuss this.

Oh, there's nothing
to discuss, Carter.

‐ Have a seat.
‐ Really?

Oh, you're comfortable sending

the message to our residents

that their opinions
are worthless

and, uh, they're just here
to serve you?

Actually, I'd be completely
comfortable with that.

But since I admire
the deviousness

with which
you got yourself here‐‐

Good. Carter, welcome to the
Emergency Services Committee.

Unfortunately,
I have to take off.

So, Carter, can you,
uh, take good notes?

So what's on the agenda?

Chad's lost 20 pounds.
His grades are falling.

Mom, I'm fine.

Has your appetite
changed recently, Chad?

‐ Not really.
‐ He's doing drugs. I know it.

I told you a thousand times,
I don't get high.

Yeah? What about those losers
you hang out with?

‐ Mom, you don't know anything.
‐ Start with a few blood tests.

Try to rule out anemia.

I brought him in here
for a drug test.

Do you see?
She never believes me.

And I don't feel
that it's appropriate

to force that on Chad,
Mrs. Kottmeier.

Well, who's in charge here?

Let's, uh, call a social worker
and try to..

‐ Is there a problem?
‐ Yes!

My son is on drugs
and she refuses to test him!

Uh, Chad denies drug use
and I was urging Mrs. Kottmeier

to consider family counseling.

Chad, do you object
to being tested?

Whatever.

If it'll get her off my back.

Problem solved.
Lucy, run a tox screen.

‐ Fine.
‐ Excuse me. Lucy‐‐

Look, I'm a medical student,
you're a resident.

And you have every right
to question

my clinical judgment,
just don't do it

in front of my patients.

Chad had no objections.

You didn't have
to choose sides.

I wasn't choosing sides.

I was trying
to work with them.

Well, sometimes the path

of least resistance works best.

Okay, since you've got
this all figured out

why don't you take this case?

Meet, Babette Fritzler, 28.

GSW to the shoulder.

Neuro vascular is intact.

‐ Husband Matt shot her.
‐ It was an accident.

I‐I‐I was trying, I was trying
to scare the hiccups out of her.

But, nothing‐nothing else
worked!

Sweet pickle juice is more

effective and a whole lot safer.

Why don't you go find some,
Dave? I'll do this.

Oh, no, you don't, Carter.

Malucci, get an upright
chest X‐ray! I'll send Kovac in!

Come on, you're doing
the positive charts.

‐ Oh, can't I do that later?
‐ No!

People could be getting sick
and not even know it.

‐ What do I have to do?
‐ Okay.

I want you to review
all positive urine

and sputum cultures
from the past 72 hours

and call back any patient
who wasn't treated

with the appropriate antibiotic.

When you're done sorting
through these, I want you

to check our compliance

on TB mask fit testing.

You asked for more
administrative experience?

And yet, somehow, I feel
I'm being punished.

Yeah. No pain, no gain.

'Multi‐car pile‐up!'

They're transporting four
to local hospitals.

‐ Any criticals?
‐ Truck driver's okay.

We don't know about the guy
underneath the truck.

‐ What's this?
‐ 'Neck and back pain.'

How are you doing?

‐ I'm okay.
‐ Okay.

Can you wiggle
your toes for me?

Great! This one's clear
to go by ground.

What's his status?

Couldn't get in
to take vitals.

Is he awake? Talking?

‐ He was groaning.
‐ Okay.

How soon before
we can get to him?

Gas tank's leaking,
we got to finish

foaming the area first.

How soon?

Shut it off!

I can't see anything!

Can you break through?

Help me!
Please, somebody help!

Hello, can you hear me?

‐ What's your name?
‐ Dean.

Okay, Dean,
we're going to help you!

He's got a weak carotid pulse.

Hang on, Dean,
we're gonna get you out!

Hang on!

ER.

No, you don't need
an appointment. Stupid.

Hey, Carol, could you order
a gram stain on the sputum?

I'm just answering phones.

'Oh, well, excuse me.'

'What are you making?'

What's it look like?

‐ A blanket.
‐ It's a hat.

‐ Sorry. Nice color.
‐ Lucy, I want to talk to you.

Did you change your mind
about drug testing that kid?

‐ Nope. Waiting for the results.
‐ ER.

I know, it's rough
being a fourth‐year.

You wanna fly solo, but nobody
thinks you're ready.

Excuse me, I got two members
of my choir out here

who still needs to be seen.

‐ And a cut on my hand.
‐ Cleo?

Lucy, why don't you assess them,
order their tests

and I'll sign off
before you discharge them?

Sure.

‐ ER.
‐ 'Hey, Carol.'

Can you order
my gram stain now?

‐ You the doc?
‐ Yep. Corday from County.

Detective Cruson,
Violent Crime.

‐ Is he still alive?
‐ Just about.

What about his passenger?

There's no one else in his car.

Well, there should be. He
carjacked a lady this morning.

Help me.

‐ What'd you do with her?
‐ Somebody help me!

What'd you do with the lady
you carjacked?

Oh! Okay!

'He's cut his carotid!'

Open a few packs
of four‐by‐fours.

He'll need
two large bore IV's!

‐ Please..
‐ 'Don't move!'

You've cut an artery
in your neck.

We'll have to remove the collar

to stop your bleeding.

‐ Tell me where she is.
‐ Who?

You know who,
you son of a bitch.

Don't move! Don't move!

Now back off him
and let me work!

There's a woman's out there
in trouble.

God knows what he did to her.

Tape his forehead
to the board.

Don't move!

‐ Don't let me die.
‐ I'm a doctor.

‐ I'll look after you.
‐ Listen to me!

There is a woman out there
that could be dying.

Now, do you understand that?

We got to find her.

Where is she, Dean?

You're bleeding,
really badly.

Where is she?

Oh, I don't know.

BP's down to 70.

This is your last chance.

Do you want to die?

Uh‐uh.

Then you tell me
where she is.

You tell me where she is

or I'll let you bleed to death.

'Do you hear me?'

Linc‐Lincoln Park..

...under the bridge.

She's in Lincoln Park,
under the bridge!

Lincoln park!
Lincoln park!

Okay, we've got
to stop this bleeding.

Get me an atraumatic clamp, now!

‐ How's he doing?
‐ He's stable!

I intubated him
on the chopper.

I heard you tied off
his carotid.

That's a pretty aggressive move!

I had no choice!

‐ Are handcuffs necessary?
‐ He's not going anywhere.

I'm just following procedure.

He's under arrest
for attempted murder.

Carol? Judy Rogers.
I'm Meg Corwin's nurse.

She had a baby boy and would
really like to see you.

‐ Why does she want to see me?
‐ She didn't say.

How's the baby doing?

Quite well under
the circumstances.

We were able to get Meg
off the heroin

before she delivered.

She said you
got her arrested.

Well, she refused treatment, so
I didn't have much of a choice.

Hey, I'm with you,
if you want to see her

she's on the jail ward.

‐ Thank you.
‐ Hey, Carol?

I heard UCAN's flying
in a trauma.

Elizabeth and Peter have it.

I'll go see if they need a hand.

Not so fast. I checked
over your list.

You haven't been
fitted for a TB Mask.

‐ Well, I'll do it later.
‐ Yeah.

I expect you to set
a good example

for the other residents.

Let's go.

He's choking, Connie,
type and cross for six.

Hang two units of O‐neg
on the rapid infuser.

‐ Blood bank's out of O‐neg!
‐ We'll have to type him first.

‐ We need blood now.
‐ What do you know?

He's got a blood donor card.

"I was an angel,
I donated blood."

‐ He's B positive!
‐ Okay, I'll order it!

Send off blood,
c‐spine and a chest X‐ray.

Alright, let's get
a gram of Ancef.

Let's update the tetanus.

Recheck his chest.

But belly's soft!
Chest is clear!

He's got an unstable pelvis,
add an AP.

‐ Pressure's down 60 palp.
‐ Okay, he's bleeding out.

Let's log roll him,
check his back.

‐ Can't, he's cuffed.
‐ Uncuff him!

We're supposed
to keep them on.

'Lily, get the bolt cutters.'

Alright, but you're responsible.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Alright, go.

No sign of any injury.

Could be a pelvic hematoma.

Could be
an intra‐abdominal bleed.

‐ I'll do an ultrasound.
‐ No, no, no.

Why don't you take a break?
I got him.

No, I brought him in.
I'll stay with him.

Alright, you got it.

'Where's the competition
being held?'

Uh, at Navy Pier.

They're sending over
a bus to pick us up.

So keep the sutures
clean and dry

and in about a week,
go see your doctor

and have them removed.

Thank you.

Are you okay, Mr. Owens?

'You're breathing
kind of fast.'

You know, let me
listen to your lungs.

Oh, I'm fine.

Let me have you breathe in
and out, deeply.

Again.

You've got rales.
Wet lungs.

Are you on any medications?

Uh, Digoxin and, uh, Lasix

for...congestive heart failure.

I'd like to run
some blood tests.

'Oh, no.'

I've had this for five years.

I need to round everyone up
and reassign parts.

Your lungs sound bad,
Mr. Owens.

Well, so will my choir
if we don't rehearse.

‐ He's got a pelvic hematoma.
‐ 'He may need embolization.'

Connie, call Steve Flint
in radiology.

Lily, how are we doing
on that blood?

Four units, B positive
on the way.

'Radiology's ready
when you are.'

‐ They must have found her.
‐ Who?

'The woman he kidnapped.
She's still alive.'

‐ 'Pressure's down to 60.'
‐ What?

BP's 60, you want
another liter of saline?

No. Lily,
get the rapid infuser.

'Multiple stab wounds
to the chest.'

Decreased breath sounds.

You want to put in
a chest tube?

Yeah. Ten blade.

She's hypotensive, BP 90.

‐ Pulse at 130.
‐ The blood bank have any O‐neg?

‐ 'Not yet.'
‐ Okay.

Does her husband
know her blood type?

‐ 'He said he doesn't know.'
‐ 'Type and cross her for four.

Are those scratches
on her neck?

Step back, we need to work.

Dr. Weaver, you might want

to take a look at this.

Abrasions
to the external genitalia.

Yosh, get the camera.

Sandra..

...can you describe the man
that stabbed you?

Ron..

Where's Ron?

'Try and remember.'

‐ 'Sats have dropped to 88.'
‐ I got to intubate.

You got to get out
of here. Go.

I need a positive ID.

You heard her.
Get out, now.

Sandra, I'm going to put
a tube down your throat

to help you breathe.

Fifteen of etomidate,
a hundred of sux.

My husband.

Don't worry,
your husband is on the way.

She's bleeding out.
Hand the cell saver.

Chuny, run a red top
to the blood bank.

Tell them to drop everything
and give us

'four units
of type specific.'

'Done.'

'Connie, check a second HemoCue'

and prime the rapid infuser.

Peter, how we doing
on that central line?

I'm almost there.

He can't hold his arm up.

Squeeze my hand.

‐ Tighter.
‐ What's wrong?

He's got right sided weakness.

Well, you tied off his carotid.
What do you expect?

He should still have good
collateral flow to his brain.

I got the B positive.

Hang it on the rapid infuser.

'We need to put in a shunt!'

'He could be stroking out!'

Connie, get a Javid
from the OR.

Alright, that's it. I'm in.

Bring down as many sizes
as you can!

Oh! Okay, Malik!
Malik, clamp it!

‐ Oh, I got it.
‐ 'Get those clothes off him.'

Prep his neck and
get a vascular tray!

Whoa! Whoa! What the hell
are you doing?

We're saving his life.

No, you're destroying evidence.

That woman's blood
could be on those clothes.

So is a unit of donor blood.

It doesn't matter!

Okay, stop, stop cutting
his clothes.

I'm sorry,
I didn't realize.

Keep all his
belongings separate.

Elizabeth, his weakness
is progressing.

We've got to get that shunt in.

And don't clean him up until

I come back with a warrant.

How much have you given her?

I autotransfused a liter back.

Okay, she's bled
another liter

into the cell saver.
Hang that!

Blood bank says another ten
minutes on the type specific.

We can't wait that long.
She's lost too much blood.

Check and see if anyone here
is O negative.

‐ What's your blood type?
‐ 'I'm B positive.'

Malucci, what's your blood type?

A positive, why?

'Tell me if you taste anything.'

Haleh, what's your blood type?

‐ AB.
‐ Carter?

‐ O negative.
‐ What?

‐ O negative.
‐ You're the man.

Come on.
Carter's O negative.

‐ What's going on?
‐ 'We need you to donate .'

'Sit him down and get
a 14‐gauge needle.'

You wanna put this on him?

Multiple stabbing victim,
needs blood.

There's no time to type her.

'Squeeze in another
two liters of saline.'

'Get another pressure.'

I've been numbing it with
a little bit lidocaine!

I got a flash.

Keep your arm straight, Carter.

This is a needle,
not a catheter.

She's tachycardic.
Heart rate's 140.

Stand by with the paddles.

‐ Vessel loops are in place.
‐ Okay.

I'll cannulate the proximal end
of the shunt

that way we can flush it out.

Otherwise, we could send
an air embolism to the brain.

Snug it down
while I do the distal end.

‐ What's wrong?
‐ Shunt's not advancing.

Hold on. Hold on.

You could be raising
an intimal flap.

He's throwing PVCs.

Give him 100 of lidocaine
and prep a drip.

There.

Distal vessel loops are secure.

Alright.

Let's open the shunt
and see how he does.

With any luck,
he'll be able to stand trial.

‐ Blood's ready.
‐ Hang it on the infuser.

You're a good bleeder, Carter.

‐ What can I do?
‐ Go to the lounge.

Get yourself some orange juice
and cookies.

Hey, I'm fine.

Ah, no! Go!

‐ 'Her pressure's dropping.'
‐ 'Okay.'

We've got to control
the bleeding.

'I put in another
chest tube.'

Oh, my God!

Sir, you have to leave.

My wife,
she's going to be alright?

Yeah, we're doing
everything we can.

Where‐where is that music
coming from?

Lucy's gospel singers.

Okay, ask them
to stop singing.

We're trying to work here.

We've lost her pressure.
Thoracotomy tray.

What are you doing?

‐ We have to stop the bleeding.
‐ Get him out of here, now.

‐ Come on, sir.
‐ Give me the sternal saw.

♪ God ♪

♪ Listen to your children ♪

♪ Praying ♪

♪ Send us love ♪

Dr. Weaver wants them to stop.

What?

Please, quiet down!

I'm sorry.

You‐you just can't,
you can't sing in here.

Then we'll rehearse outside.
Let's go, everyone.

No, Mr. Owens,
you can't leave.

His blood tests
aren't back yet.

Take it up
with Dr. Weaver.

‐ Where are you goin'?
‐ I got to pee.

Do I have to go
in a cup again?

No, you can flush this time.

Is that drug test back
on Chad Kottmeier?

Yeah. The tox screen
came back negative.

That's good news.

His liver function
tests were abnormal.

Could you call the lab and
add on a blood alcohol level?

Sure.

‐ Oh.
‐ Whoa, Carol, are you okay?

Dave, need a hand!
Carol's presyncopal.

‐ I'm just dizzy.
‐ Yeah, okay.

‐ I'm okay. Really.
‐ Take some deep breaths, okay?

‐ Guys, I'm fine.
‐ She's probably hypotensive.

Grab a gurney. We're putting you
and the babies on a monitor.

‐ Come on, I'm alright.
‐ Carol, breathe.

‐ I've got the blood.
‐ 'Okay.'

Hang 'em wide open
on the rapid infuser.

Pulmonary vein is
shredded on my side.

Clamp off the hilum,
she's losing blood

faster than we can
give it to her.

Give me suction.
Give me suction.

2‐0 silk and pickups.

Okay, hilum is clamped.

Take over the compressions.
Give me the stitches.

‐ She's in fib!
‐ Her heart's filling.

Give me the paddles.

Charge to 30

and clear!

Let's take him to Radiology
for embolization.

‐ Do you still need me?
‐ No, I'll take him up.

Alright.

Uh, Connie, you go on.
I'll be up in a minute.

'Okay.'

Can you tell me
what they're doing to my wife?

They're shocking her heart
to try to get it beating again.

Why are they stopping?

Mr. Perry..

...we need to talk to you.

‐ They okay?
‐ Good variability.

No contractions.

Your babies are doing great,
it's you I'm worried about.

I'm taking it easy.

There's no such thing
as taking it easy in the ER.

You're in your third trimester,
with twins.

You need to go home and rest.

Heard you collapsed.
You okay?

I didn't collapse.
I'm fine.

Her blood pressure was low.

Normal for this stage
of the pregnancy.

Okay, I'll take it.

Uh, call me
if you have any problems.

Thanks.

‐ You need to‐‐
‐ I need to go home, I know.

‐ Yes.
‐ Hey, how's your dad?

He never got off the plane.

‐ Was it the right flight?
‐ Yes.

The only morning flight
from San Diego.

I called the airline
and they wouldn't

give me any information.

Did you call him at home?

Yeah, and I checked
with the neighbor.

She has a key and she went over
to the house.

There's no sign of him.

Um, maybe he took
a later flight.

Yeah, or he's just lost
somewhere

in the continental
United States.

Guess I'm off the hook, huh?

Not quite.

Your tests
are a bunch of crap.

‐ I'm clean.
‐ You're drunk.

If you call this drunk

lady, you don't get out much.

When was your last drink?

I had a few beers last night.

Must have had more than a few
to still have alcohol

in your blood this afternoon.

Okay.

So maybe I had
a couple of six‐packs.

I don't remember.

Is that because
you blacked out?

Chad, you've already
got liver damage

from the alcohol.

That means you've been doing

some seriously heavy drinking.

I like to party
with my friends.

Nothing wrong with that.

We need to talk to your mom.

So what's she gonna say?

She gets bombed
every night herself.

She just went
to go get us...coffee.

That's all.

Mr. Perry, could we speak
to you outside?

I can't leave.

Not yet.

We need to talk
to you about something

that's going to be
very difficult.

We have to do
a rape exam on your wife.

Please, come with us.

I'm very sorry,
but I‐I must ask.

Have you had intercourse
with your wife

in the past 72 hours?

Why?

If the exam is positive

we have to make sure

that it wasn't you.

No.

'He's bleeding from
the internal iliac.'

We'll have to embolize
the vessel.

Any other sites
of hemorrhage?

No, he lucked out.

Nonetheless, he's got
a fractured pelvis

shredded carotid,
dislocated hip

torn hypogastric.

All the radiologists
and all the surgeons

might not put Humpty
back together again.

Uh, step out, please.
We're about to take X‐rays.

I have a warrant
to gather evidence.

The charges against
this guy have been changed.

What do you need to do?

'Fingerprint him,
scrape under his nails.'

'You're looking
at murder one, pal.'

♪ He taught me how ♪

♪ He taught me how ♪

♪ To walk ♪

♪ My everything ♪

♪ My every ♪

♪ And he rejoices ♪

♪ And he rejoices ♪

Your lungs sound better
since the Lasix.

Yeah, that damn stuff
made me pee like a fountain.

We're late.
We got to be headin' out.

Uh, you can't leave until
your blood tests are back.

Well, I'm not gonna
disappoint my choir.

I'll come back right after
the concert. I promise.

‐ Freddy, we're taking off.
‐ Oh, no, no.

Okay, you're leaving
against medical advice.

I'm gonna need you
to sign a waiver.

Just‐I‐I have to go get
a doctor, okay?

I thought you were a doctor!

I'm a medical student.
You stay there!

If the boy doesn't want help,
there's not much we can do.

If he keeps it up,
he's going to kill himself

or someone else.

I can give you the names
of some treatment programs

that you could refer him to.

I offered that.
He refused.

Can't we commit him?

We can't pull him out
of his home

for being an alcoholic.

What if I convinced
the mom to sign

him into a treatment facility?

‐ Dr. Finch?
‐ Maybe.

Mr. Owens is leaving AMA.
You have to talk to him.

He's in congestive
heart failure.

‐ What's his EKG?
‐ Uh, no ST changes.

I put him on Lasix
and nitropaste

and I'm waiting on
the cardiac enzymes.

Where is he?

Why didn't you get me sooner?

I thought I could handle it.

If his enzymes shows
he's had a heart attack

you better find him.

Hey, how was the Emergency
Committee meeting?

I'll let you read the minutes,
Dr. Weaver

is making me
type them up.

Mark, cab company

from San Diego called back.

They said they picked
up your dad this morning

and dropped him off
at the airport.

‐ Thank you.
‐ Got any other leads?

No, not yet.

Well, what are you
still doing here?

If I don't finish
these time cards

the nurses don't get paid.

Well, can't somebody else
do it?

Well, it's gonna take me
just as long

to explain it to someone else.

Besides, I'd be doing this
at home anyway.

‐ Take it easy.
‐ Yes, doctor.

Mark, the neurologist
wants to know

if you or Dr. Weaver
can come up to Six West.

‐ It's about Dr. Lawrence.
‐ Where's Kerry?

Well, she's doing
a rape exam.

Alright. Tell him
I'm on my way.

Ooh, I almost forgot.
Some girl named Meg called.

She said she really
wants to see you.

‐ Thanks.
‐ Uh‐huh.

It's a volcano.

Whether it's Mount Etna
or‐r Vesuvius

I couldn't tell you.

Okay, volcano will do.

This is ridiculous!

‐ I feel like a lab rat.
‐ Just bear with me.

Alright, fine,
just point me to the cheese.

What's this?

It's a martini glass
without the base.

Or it's a..

It's a cone...right?

Okay, let's try another one.

What's this?

Th‐those are the picker‐uppers

that you use to..

...to put the ice
in the martini glass.

Yeah, they're also called?

‐ Call 'em whatever you like.
‐ 'Okay.'

‐ They're tongs.
‐ Great, they're tongs.

‐ Who the‐who the hell cares?
‐ 'How about this one?'

Look, no, look.
Stop this nonsense!

‐ We're not quite finished yet.
‐ I am!

I'm not gonna sit here
and play guessing games

with you and a‐and a bunch
of lousy drawings.

I'm sorry.

Why don't we take
a short break?

I'll be right back.

Don't rush.

'Uh, saline.'

‐ Ready for the Wood's lamp?
‐ Yeah, please.

I see a spot.

Looks like semen.

Yeah, that's it.

Finished up?

I'm just waiting
for the test results.

Have a seat.
Share my boredom.

Want to grab a cup of coffee?

Well, sure.
Why not?

How are things going?

For a doc
who can't practice medicine?

Can't complain.

I called your son.
He's on his way over.

Oh, no. Come on, look.
I just..

I told that neurologist
I don't want my son involved.

You can't enlist in a clinical
trial without a caregiver.

You need someone
to be in touch.

Even on a daily basis

Make sure that you
take your meds.

My son is not gonna
baby‐sit me.

You took care of him
when he needed you.

Now it's his turn.

That's just it.

I was too busy being a doctor.

Too busy helping
everybody else.

Yeah, well,
let your son decide, okay?

No, I'm‐I'm not gonna
be a burden to him.

Dr. Chow is gonna be testing
a new neurotrophin.

It could give you
some more time.

What difference
is a couple of more months

gonna make?

So, you're just giving up
'cause you're too damn proud

to ask your son for help?

If he says yes..

...I'll still end up
the‐the way I'll end up.

I don't think I could bear
for him to say no.

Just talk to him,
he might say yes.

I think it's too late.

I'm gonna clean out my locker.

Doppler showed an intimal tear
of the carotid.

We'll go in
and tack it down.

Yeah, sounds like a plan.

Lizzie...I understand

you've had yourself
quite a day.

I'm not in the mood.

Perhaps you'd be in the mood
to hear

what's been
going on downstairs.

Your, uh, patient
raped that woman.

‐ Oh...dear God!
‐ Yeah.

I also got a little visit
from an investigator

in the public defender's office.

It seems, some bleeding heart
is claiming

that you coerced Rollins

into telling you
where he left her.

Did you coerce your patient
into giving information

in exchange for his life?

Dr. Romano,
you're out of line.

It's okay, Peter.
I'll answer that.

I think it's fair to say
I pressured Mr. Rollins.

Well, Lizzie,
you never fail to impress me.

I didn't think
you had it in you

to cross that line.

But you may wanna
reflect on whether

that's really
how you'd characterize

what happened today
because...unfortunately

in this country..

...when a confession
is coerced..

...it's usually thrown out.

I'm here to see Meg Corwin.

‐ 'Change your mind?'
‐ I wanted to see the baby.

Just in time. Social Services
will be here soon to take him.

She's in here.

Kind of crazy having
to lock her in like this.

But County has its rules.

‐ 'Hi, Meg.'
‐ Hi.

This is Joshua.

He's beautiful.

Hi, Joshua.

They're‐they're sending me
back to jail.

I need you to talk to someone

about letting Joshua
stay with me.

Oh, Meg, that wouldn't
do any good.

You did this.

If you hadn't gotten me busted

I wouldn't be here
right now.

I did what I thought was best
for you and your baby.

I'm gonna be in jail
for ten months.

You think that's
what's best for him?

Look, I know how hard this is.

But if you get your life
back together

and you prove that to them

I'm sure you can
get Joshua back.

How can you be
so damn self‐righteous?

Meg, Social Services is here.

Just give me
a little more time, okay?

You know the rules, moms can't
keep their babies in jail.

'This isn't right.'

'I‐I know I screwed up bad.'

‐ But he needs me.
‐ Come on, now.

I'm his mother.
Carol, please do something.

There isn't anything
I can do.

‐ Carol, please..
‐ I‐I'm sorry, Meg.

Please, Carol.
You did this.

‐ I...no.
‐ Please, sweetie.

Let him stay
a little while longer.

'We're gonna help.'

Can you open this door?

‐ Just a moment.
‐ 'He's really happy with me.'

‐ Yeah, sorry.
‐ 'Please let him stay.'

Open this door now, please!

'I'm his mother.'

'No, no, please don't take him.'

'Please don't take my baby!
I'm his mother.'

'When I get back,
I'll get you something'

'so you can get some sleep.'

'Mama loves you, honey.'

'I love you.
I love you.'

‐ 'We'll be back for you.'
‐ 'Please don't take him.'

'I'm his mother!'

Dr. Lawrence,
what are you doing here?

‐ Waiting for my ride.
‐ 'Earl Rydiger, 63.'

'Wife found him unconscious.'

'Seized in the rig
for three minutes.'

'Gave him two of Ativan,
history'

'of type 2 diabetes,
on Micronase.'

‐ 'He's seizing again.'
‐ Give him two more of Ativan.

Load him up with Dilantin,
15 per kilo!

Page Dr. Weaver.

I guess I got myself
all worked up over nothing.

Mrs. Kottmeier, alcohol abuse
is hardly nothing.

Oh, so he had a few beers
with his friends.

Thank God it wasn't
speed or coke.

Your son is an alcoholic.

He has a serious problem
we can't ignore.

With your permission,
I can refer Chad

to a treatment program.

Doctor, uh, Finch

I brought my son here
to be tested for drugs.

I did not give you permission
to test his blood for alcohol.

Your son needs help.

Look, he's not on drugs, right?

Are you avoiding this because
you have a drinking problem?

How dare you?

Come on, Chad.

'How much Dilantin's on board?'

‐ Four hundred milligrams.
‐ Alright.

Keep pushing it.

PH is low, 6.95.

Potassium's 6.8.
Why is he so acidemic?

He's diabetic.
Could it be ketoacidosis?

‐ No. Blood glucose is normal.
‐ 'Could he be septic?'

Temp and white count
are normal.

‐ BP's stable.
‐ Seizure stopped!

‐ I don't understand this.
‐ 'Oh, he's throwing PVC's.'

Alright, start the Lidocaine.
What the hell's going on?

He's seizing again.

He's going to arrest.

'Dr. Lawrence,
can you help me?'

I don't work here anymore.

'Please, I got a guy
who's coding.'

His pH is falling.

His potassium's rising.

He's having refractory seizures.
Please.

It's nothing obvious.
It's not DKA.

It's not sepsis. It's not
aspirius. It's not uremia.

'He's throwing
multifocal PVC's.'

Get me six of Pavulon.

‐ Pavulon?
‐ Just do it.

What's going on?

Guy with refractory seizures
and acidemia.

Dr. Lawrence has asked me
to give him Pavulon.

Come on, push it, Carter.

I've never tried
giving Pavulon

for acidemia and seizures.

It's strychnine poisoning.

Give me that.
I'll do it.

It worked!

'How did you know?'

Strychnine
competitively antagonizes

the central inhibition
of glycine

which causes hyperexcitation.

I had a case like this
20 years ago.

Patient tried to commit suicide
by eating Gopher Go.

Once you see
strychnine poisoning

you never forget it.

Check his pH.

I'll bet you'll see
it's coming back up.

Dr. Carter, your patient
will recover.

Thank you.

Score one for the
absent‐minded professor, huh?

Well, I got to go.

Gabe..

...that patient
would've died

if you hadn't
been here.

This old dog
can still teach you

a few new tricks.

I wouldn't be here
without you.

I just gave you
a little push

in the right direction,
that's all.

What are you gonna do?

Mark called my son,
asked him to stop by today.

We talked and..

I've...I agreed
to live with him.

I'm glad.

He's picking me up now.

I'll see you, Kerry.

I'll see ya.

‐ You find that patient?
‐ I called a dozen times.

‐ Nobody's seen him.
‐ What've you got?

Fifty‐five‐year‐old male.

Complains of headache
and chest pain

along with gospel singers

'with suspected
carbon‐monoxide poisoning.'

This is all your fault.

‐ Mr. Owens..
‐ We missed the festival.

Call Cardiology
and don't lose him this time.

‐ Mark?
‐ Dad?

Are you alright?

'Where you been?
I was worried about you.'

I'm fine.

A little tired,
but 200 bucks richer.

My flight
was overbooked.

So I volunteered
to take a later one.

You know, they actually pay you
to get off the plane.

Dad, you don't have to worry
about saving

a couple of hundred bucks,
you know?

I could buy you a ticket.

I can afford
my own ticket, Mark.

Dad, how about a tour?

I've been
in plenty of hospitals.

Well, you've never
been in this one.

You're the boss
around here, right?

‐ Yeah, one of them.
‐ Oh.

Dr. Kovac..

...thank you.

Oh, for what?

For doing a good job
on a tough case.

Until next time.

Luka, I...would
like you to stay..

...permanently.

Uh, there is,
a‐an opening here

since Dr. Lawrence
is leaving.

‐ Okay.
‐ Great.

Don't you want to know
how much it pays?

You'll be fair.

See you tomorrow.

See ya.

I'll close.
What's his blood loss?

'700cc's.'

Let's give him
another unit.

Normal sinus
at a 100.

Lucky bastard.

I should've let him die.

Well, don't beat
yourself up.

Your getting
him to talk

made it possible
to find her.

Yeah, a fat lot of good
that did.

Hey, look, she didn't die
alone outside

you know,
under a bridge.

‐ He's in V‐tach!
‐ His pressure's dropping.

Alright, let's get the paddles,
people. Let's move!

'Charge to 200!'

'Paddles are charged.'

What do you want
to do, Elizabeth?

Elizabeth?

'Clear.'

'He's back.'
