Previously on E.
R.
- Michael's coming home today.
- Well, hello, soldier.
Michael's gonna have a heavy patient flow.
He will be unable to make it home on leave as anticipated.
- Tony Gates.
- Dr.
Rasgotra.
- You don't like my style? What is that? - We were all here a long time before you.
We work together.
You're the new guy.
- I'm her father.
I have a right to know.
- Dad, please.
Stop it! You ever come near my daughter again, and I'll kill you.
Wasn't as cold this morning.
Thought people from the Bronx were tough.
- We are.
- Yeah, right.
Talk to me in February.
What's up? - What we got? - Martin Trudeau, 60, short of breath.
Uh-oh.
Looks like trouble.
You're telling me.
- How's the rookie doing? - She could smile more.
She's fine.
All I wanted was a little oxygen.
And these clowns keep poking me for 10 minutes.
Status post-cardiac transplant, 2001.
Think those bastards at the Mayo Clinics give refunds on bad hearts? - Marty's on a lot of meds.
- Neoral, mycophenolate, Lipitor benazepril, nicardipine, Isordil, furosemide, potassium, aspirin.
Now we got freaking Rain Man here.
- I'm taking her to Vegas.
- Lungs are wet.
Forty of Lasix, 25 of sublingual captopril.
I'll be right in.
- So how's it going? - They don't have a coat that fits.
They woke me and my neighbors at 5 a.
m.
with that siren.
Gates is like a dog in heat.
Other than that- There is no other than that.
- Look on the bright side.
- What bright side? Pratt, your diarrhea guy's butt is exploding again.
- You could be stuck here.
- Yo, Mayday.
- Dr.
Rasgotra will be fine.
- I'm gonna go restock, Mayday.
- Thanks.
- Nice jacket, roomie.
Or can I still call you that? As long as you don't call me Mayday.
How's the ride-along? - That good, huh? - You need a fresh Steri-Strip.
- Oh.
Sorry.
- Yep, still a little tender.
All things considered, you got off easy.
My ass-kicking was a breeze.
All I had to do was lay there.
Beats jail time.
Here, sit.
- Heard from Gallant? - Not yet.
He got stuck.
- He's still coming home, right? - Not at the moment.
Oh, that's cool.
I mean, too bad.
- But, uh, maybe I can come home now? - No.
- No? - It's nice without you.
That smell hasn't been there since you've been gone.
- But it's my place.
- Got another run, Mayday.
You can come back on these conditions: No dishes in the sink, no using the couch as your hamper.
Didn't I let you move in? Okay, fine.
Done deal.
I'm on graveyard, I'll be back in the morning.
Oh, crap.
Admit, 2 o'clock.
- I thought you got rid of her.
- Help, please.
- Ray.
- Neela.
- Zoe.
- Oh, hey, Neela.
- Why are you here? - Where is Ray? - He's off today.
- That's not true.
He pulls doubles Thursdays so he can do Friday gigs.
I totally know his schedule.
He had a doctor's appointment.
Eye specialist.
He hasn't returned my calls.
I've been worried.
Come on, we got a man down.
- I'll tell him you were here.
- Give him this.
It's all our songs.
It's a make-up mix.
Residency office is looking for Abby.
- She's on nights.
- Lucky her.
She's on nights.
I think I know why you got fluid in your lungs, Mr.
Trudeau.
I take long showers.
Is there anything you wanna tell me? - Like what? - Listen, your cyclosporine level was zero.
Yeah? So? So you stopped taking your meds.
Am I right? - Are you taking your pills? - Nope.
So you're wasting a good heart, not to mention my time.
You know how much the medicine costs me a month, huh? I take piles of that medicine at almost 4 large a month.
What about Medicare? Oh, please.
You gotta declare poverty for that.
You have to give up your house and your savings and your car.
Huh? Who's gonna take care of my wife? How are you supposed to if you're dead? Oh, please.
She drives me back and forth to the hospital.
I puke, she cleans it up.
And I can't make it up the stairs alone.
I pass out.
Mr.
Trudeau, are you refusing to take your medication? Because if you are, you're gonna go into heart failure - and you're gonna die.
- Aw All right, then, put him in Curtain 3.
We're done.
- Sam, how many nurses are you short? - Two, and the registry's empty.
You'll manage.
Here's my number.
My flight leaves at 4:20.
- I'll keep my cell phone on.
- What about Malik? - Funeral in Detroit.
- Arson capital of the world.
- Did you try Jarvik? - I called everybody.
Sam, do you want me to stay? - Oh, go ahead.
We got it, go.
- Okay, I got a flight to catch.
- Yo, Rocky.
- Hey, Inez.
- You wanna pick up a drunk samurai? - Samurai? GYN has a bed, but can't take the PID for two hours.
- I'll call them.
- Sam, why is my UTl still here? We're out of ICONs.
- Could you, please? - I got it.
- Like, before Christmas? - I said, I got it.
- Four more.
- What did she say? Same thing she said the last six times.
Kobayashi.
That's your real name? You, with hair like ray of sun, you are beautiful.
What are you doing? Looking for my underwear.
Are you on tonight? No.
Why are you leaving? I just thought I should.
- You should stay.
- I probably shouldn't.
I have a lot of stuff I need to do and Oh.
Your bra.
Thank you.
Panties.
Still like ketchup on your eggs? Okay.
I'll make us some breakfast.
I think we probably slept through breakfast.
And lunch.
I can't believe he's doing this to himself.
Can you stop it? Really, what's the point if he's not gonna take the medication? He's not such a pain in the ass, you know.
He's just angry because he's been so sick.
I wish you could help him.
I'm not sure I can.
He's my life.
I'm not ready to let him go.
Take a cab.
And next time, fake a seizure.
So how about some sushi? You like sushi? I know a great sushi place.
- Does he ever stop? - Get a ring.
He's scared of husbands.
- I told you, I have a boyfriend.
- Oh.
So, what is he, a lawyer? - A commodities trader? A dentist? - He's a doctor.
- County? - In the Army.
- Stateside, I hope.
- Iraq.
- CASH unit? -10th Combat Support.
You know, I was a medic in Desert Storm.
-101 st Airborne.
- Airborne? - Did you fly planes? - Nope, just jumped out of them.
- When's he coming home? - Soon, I hope.
To prove I'm a good guy, know what I'm gonna do? I'll let you sit in front, play with the siren.
- I'm gonna buy you coffee.
- With an empty wallet? Paramedics and cops drink for free.
- Technically, you're not buying anything.
- Technically, it's the thought that counts.
Come on in.
Sorry.
Sorry, I won't do it again.
My foot slipped, I promise.
Scout's honor.
What took you so long? Buckle up.
What the hell's that? Monoclonal antibodies to stop the rejection.
Did I not make myself clear? I don't want it.
Well, you're getting it anyway.
And you're gonna take these too.
I spoke to your doctors at the Mayo.
They agreed to take you.
By helicopter.
- I'm not going.
- This is Neoral.
If you take this, you'll have a detectable blood level by the time you get there.
You are so wasting your time, doc.
Yeah, okay, good.
So look, this is how it's gonna go.
You gonna take these pills, get on that chopper.
You're gonna stay on your meds as long as that donated heart keeps beating.
Who the hell do you think you are? You see that woman over there? She loves you.
And I have no idea why, because, personally, I find you extremely annoying.
But if you think you're helping her by killing yourself, you're wrong.
You know, you're a miserable guy.
But she seems like a great lady and she wants to keep you around.
So open wide, Marty.
- Be careful, it's hot.
- Thanks.

- You're so cool for not pressing charges.
- Now is not a good time.
- Okay, but you get off at 8, right? Ha.
When I said we can't see each other anymore- Just because my Dad's a jerk doesn't mean we can't keep going.
I got my ass kicked once.
I don't wanna go to jail.
I know, but we could keep it a secret.
Like Romeo and Juliet.
No, you need to leave right now.

Adrian, we're doing what we can, okay? All you do is point, okay? UNSURE (OF WHAT'S HAPPENING) We're using all the medication we can to fix your heart.

Let Dubenko finish what you started.
You got big huevos, big brass ones.
They look good on you.

Ninety-four in room air.
That's not great.
- There're some expiratory wheezes.
- Those will pass.
Or get worse.
I'm a bit worried here.
- Hello? - I'm sorry.
It was just Today was so Terrifying and amazing.
There was no labs, no x-rays, no rapid infusers or cutdown trays.
Just me.
I mean, maybe it's the adrenaline, but I feel high.
I need to go back out.
Sounds like I should call for a psych consult.
- Still patients out there.
- Yes, and they're being handled.
Excuse me, Abby.
Dubenko called from the O.
R.
Alice Watson died on the table.
Okay, thanks.
- Patient of yours? - Impaled abdomen.
- From the crash? - Mm-hm.
- Where are her kids? - Exam 2.
You need to be monitored.
Hey, Abby? How's he doing? Lung is up after two chest tubes.
We're going up to ICU.
- So I stopped breathing? - It was more like holding your breath.
- But I could've died.
- Theoretically, yeah.
Think you were in more danger on the plane.
- Hm.
I cheated death twice today.
- You're very lucky.
I guess I should feel bad, or guilty, or something.
But truth is I feel happy.
I have a second chance.
I'm calling off the wedding.
Oh.
You might wanna sleep on that.
No, I have been sleeping my whole life.
I never do what I wanna do.
I never say how I really feel.
- I'm not in love with her.
- Maybe you two should talk about that.
Screw that.
Screw it.
No more messing with "could have, should have, would have.
" Carpe diem.
All right.
Well, good luck with that.
Besides, I'm pretty sure, um, I'm gay.
- Getting tired? - No.
Dr.
Pratt, this is Adrian's girlfriend, his brother and his uncle.
- I explained everything.
- I'm sorry.
We gave him every kind of medication possible.
Nothing's working right now.
He's awake.
You can talk to him if you want.
Hey, you hang on.
Everyone's coming.
Pratt, check it out.
I guess she's okay, then.
Yeah.
- It's alive.
- They shut down the Dan Ryan.
It took me two hours to get here.
Where do you need me? - How about Peoria? - How'd we do? - We're still here.
- No ICU boarders? - None.
- And we're reopen for trauma? Yup.
Hey, call housekeeping for T1.
Pharmacy's here to restock.
Excuse me.
Could someone please remove these? Go for it.
- Sir, why are you restrained? - I have no idea.
Hey, Sam.
- More Sianis family members.
- I'll be right there.
- Sam, what is Haleh doing here? - Exam 2's going up to 4-West.
- I gotta help Pratt with a trauma.
- Did you bring her back? Haleh's one of the best nurses in town and we're getting our asses handed to us.
I did whatever I thought I could.
Good move.
- You need a chest x-ray.
- I told you, I'm fine.
Tell the kids I'll check on them in the morning.
- Come on.
- Please, I've been on for 16 hours.
- Yeah, well, what if your lungs get worse? - I'll call 911.
Stay at the hospital.
You can sleep in the call room.
- I need to be at home tonight.
- That might not be safe.
If I start to die, you'll be the first one I'll call.
- Fine.
I'll come and stay at your place.
- It's not necessary.
Oh.
Okay, is there anything, anything I can say to get you to stay? No.
- I slept with Luka.
- Yeah, nice try.
I can bag.
So how is this gonna go if you stop? There'll be lack of oxygen to the brain.
He'll pass out, like going to sleep.
- Is he gonna be in pain? - He's had a sedative.
He's comfortable.
And you've done everything? Yes, we have.
What, you want us to stop? Are you ready? No.
No.
No.
No.
Nine forty-two p.
m.
No.
I'm sorry.
No.
- He was a lucky guy.
- He's dead.
A lot of people loved him.
They all got a chance to say goodbye.
All right, you gotta stop calling me.
No, because we're done.
We've been done.
- No.
No.
No.
Why? Because you're not listening to me.
Let me say it to you really nice and slow for the last time.
I don't love you.
Go back to your husband.
I'm not going back to him- Hey, Dr.
Kovac.
You know, you and I should have a little sit-down.
Yeah, probably.
No, I think, like, definitely.
We're both captains on this team here.
If we break down, the whole machine breaks down.
We can't have that, especially on days like today.
I agree.
Oh, because, see, I thought I was the incident commander.
- I thought I was clear- - Know what? Let's talk tomorrow.
Yeah, tomorrow's great.
I'll be here all day, 8 to 8.
Hey.
Hi.
- Rough night.
- Yeah, I'm glad it's over.
Yeah, me too.
Did Baxter get upstairs okay? Oh, he's fine.
Not so sure about his fiancée, though.
- Listen, I was thinking that- - Sorry.
- No, you go ahead.
Go ahead.
- No.
Okay.
No, I was just thinking about Uh, I was thinking about what happened last night.
It was nice.
"Nice"? Yeah.
- Wasn't it? - No- Ha.
Yeah, of course.
- But? - What? I don't know.
I don't know.
What do we do now? Not sure.
For a long time, even when we weren't connecting a lot you've been the one person I can count on.
I feel like that too.
That means a lot to me, that friendship.
Me too.
So? Maybe we should just leave it at that, then.
I don't know.
I don't wanna lose that.
But if that's what you- That's what's the best.
So, what we're just saying is that we'll just stay friends, then.
Need a lift? No, I have some stuff I need to finish inside.
Okay.
- Good night.
- See you.
R.
Previously on E.
R.
- Michael's coming home today.
- Well, hello, soldier.
Michael's gonna have a heavy patient flow.
He will be unable to make it home on leave as anticipated.
- Tony Gates.
- Dr.
Rasgotra.
- You don't like my style? What is that? - We were all here a long time before you.
We work together.
You're the new guy.
- I'm her father.
I have a right to know.
- Dad, please.
Stop it! You ever come near my daughter again, and I'll kill you.
Wasn't as cold this morning.
Thought people from the Bronx were tough.
- We are.
- Yeah, right.
Talk to me in February.
What's up? - What we got? - Martin Trudeau, 60, short of breath.
Uh-oh.
Looks like trouble.
You're telling me.
- How's the rookie doing? - She could smile more.
She's fine.
All I wanted was a little oxygen.
And these clowns keep poking me for 10 minutes.
Status post-cardiac transplant, 2001.
Think those bastards at the Mayo Clinics give refunds on bad hearts? - Marty's on a lot of meds.
- Neoral, mycophenolate, Lipitor benazepril, nicardipine, Isordil, furosemide, potassium, aspirin.
Now we got freaking Rain Man here.
- I'm taking her to Vegas.
- Lungs are wet.
Forty of Lasix, 25 of sublingual captopril.
I'll be right in.
- So how's it going? - They don't have a coat that fits.
They woke me and my neighbors at 5 a.
m.
with that siren.
Gates is like a dog in heat.
Other than that- There is no other than that.
- Look on the bright side.
- What bright side? Pratt, your diarrhea guy's butt is exploding again.
- You could be stuck here.
- Yo, Mayday.
- Dr.
Rasgotra will be fine.
- I'm gonna go restock, Mayday.
- Thanks.
- Nice jacket, roomie.
Or can I still call you that? As long as you don't call me Mayday.
How's the ride-along? - That good, huh? - You need a fresh Steri-Strip.
- Oh.
Sorry.
- Yep, still a little tender.
All things considered, you got off easy.
My ass-kicking was a breeze.
All I had to do was lay there.
Beats jail time.
Here, sit.
- Heard from Gallant? - Not yet.
He got stuck.
- He's still coming home, right? - Not at the moment.
Oh, that's cool.
I mean, too bad.
- But, uh, maybe I can come home now? - No.
- No? - It's nice without you.
That smell hasn't been there since you've been gone.
- But it's my place.
- Got another run, Mayday.
You can come back on these conditions: No dishes in the sink, no using the couch as your hamper.
Didn't I let you move in? Okay, fine.
Done deal.
I'm on graveyard, I'll be back in the morning.
Oh, crap.
Admit, 2 o'clock.
- I thought you got rid of her.
- Help, please.
- Ray.
- Neela.
- Zoe.
- Oh, hey, Neela.
- Why are you here? - Where is Ray? - He's off today.
- That's not true.
He pulls doubles Thursdays so he can do Friday gigs.
I totally know his schedule.
He had a doctor's appointment.
Eye specialist.
He hasn't returned my calls.
I've been worried.
Come on, we got a man down.
- I'll tell him you were here.
- Give him this.
It's all our songs.
It's a make-up mix.
Residency office is looking for Abby.
- She's on nights.
- Lucky her.
She's on nights.
I think I know why you got fluid in your lungs, Mr.
Trudeau.
I take long showers.
Is there anything you wanna tell me? - Like what? - Listen, your cyclosporine level was zero.
Yeah? So? So you stopped taking your meds.
Am I right? - Are you taking your pills? - Nope.
So you're wasting a good heart, not to mention my time.
You know how much the medicine costs me a month, huh? I take piles of that medicine at almost 4 large a month.
What about Medicare? Oh, please.
You gotta declare poverty for that.
You have to give up your house and your savings and your car.
Huh? Who's gonna take care of my wife? How are you supposed to if you're dead? Oh, please.
She drives me back and forth to the hospital.
I puke, she cleans it up.
And I can't make it up the stairs alone.
I pass out.
Mr.
Trudeau, are you refusing to take your medication? Because if you are, you're gonna go into heart failure - and you're gonna die.
- Aw All right, then, put him in Curtain 3.
We're done.
- Sam, how many nurses are you short? - Two, and the registry's empty.
You'll manage.
Here's my number.
My flight leaves at 4:20.
- I'll keep my cell phone on.
- What about Malik? - Funeral in Detroit.
- Arson capital of the world.
- Did you try Jarvik? - I called everybody.
Sam, do you want me to stay? - Oh, go ahead.
We got it, go.
- Okay, I got a flight to catch.
- Yo, Rocky.
- Hey, Inez.
- You wanna pick up a drunk samurai? - Samurai? GYN has a bed, but can't take the PID for two hours.
- I'll call them.
- Sam, why is my UTl still here? We're out of ICONs.
- Could you, please? - I got it.
- Like, before Christmas? - I said, I got it.
- Four more.
- What did she say? Same thing she said the last six times.
Kobayashi.
That's your real name? You, with hair like ray of sun, you are beautiful.
What are you doing? Looking for my underwear.
Are you on tonight? No.
Why are you leaving? I just thought I should.
- You should stay.
- I probably shouldn't.
I have a lot of stuff I need to do and Oh.
Your bra.
Thank you.
Panties.
Still like ketchup on your eggs? Okay.
I'll make us some breakfast.
I think we probably slept through breakfast.
And lunch.
I can't believe he's doing this to himself.
Can you stop it? Really, what's the point if he's not gonna take the medication? He's not such a pain in the ass, you know.
He's just angry because he's been so sick.
I wish you could help him.
I'm not sure I can.
He's my life.
I'm not ready to let him go.
Take a cab.
And next time, fake a seizure.
So how about some sushi? You like sushi? I know a great sushi place.
- Does he ever stop? - Get a ring.
He's scared of husbands.
- I told you, I have a boyfriend.
- Oh.
So, what is he, a lawyer? - A commodities trader? A dentist? - He's a doctor.
- County? - In the Army.
- Stateside, I hope.
- Iraq.
- CASH unit? -10th Combat Support.
You know, I was a medic in Desert Storm.
-101 st Airborne.
- Airborne? - Did you fly planes? - Nope, just jumped out of them.
- When's he coming home? - Soon, I hope.
To prove I'm a good guy, know what I'm gonna do? I'll let you sit in front, play with the siren.
- I'm gonna buy you coffee.
- With an empty wallet? Paramedics and cops drink for free.
- Technically, you're not buying anything.
- Technically, it's the thought that counts.
Come on in.
Sorry.
Sorry, I won't do it again.
My foot slipped, I promise.
Scout's honor.
What took you so long? Buckle up.
What the hell's that? Monoclonal antibodies to stop the rejection.
Did I not make myself clear? I don't want it.
Well, you're getting it anyway.
And you're gonna take these too.
I spoke to your doctors at the Mayo.
They agreed to take you.
By helicopter.
- I'm not going.
- This is Neoral.
If you take this, you'll have a detectable blood level by the time you get there.
You are so wasting your time, doc.
Yeah, okay, good.
So look, this is how it's gonna go.
You gonna take these pills, get on that chopper.
You're gonna stay on your meds as long as that donated heart keeps beating.
Who the hell do you think you are? You see that woman over there? She loves you.
And I have no idea why, because, personally, I find you extremely annoying.
But if you think you're helping her by killing yourself, you're wrong.
You know, you're a miserable guy.
But she seems like a great lady and she wants to keep you around.
So open wide, Marty.
- Be careful, it's hot.
- Thanks.
The passenger jet crashed in the 5700 block of- - Child rooms clear? - And sutures and Curtain 2.

Not a drill.
I'm going out with Pickman.
Congratulations, have her home by 10.
Set this up.
- City fire needs a physician.
- With experience.
Somebody with experience would be better here.
- It's a tough call.

They'll need crikes, central access, chest tubes.

You got anybody? - I'm going, come on.
Okay, okay, Pratt, it's you.
But get your ass back here in an hour.

- You're so cool for not pressing charges.
- Now is not a good time.
- Okay, but you get off at 8, right? Ha.
When I said we can't see each other anymore- Just because my Dad's a jerk doesn't mean we can't keep going.
I got my ass kicked once.
I don't wanna go to jail.
I know, but we could keep it a secret.
Like Romeo and Juliet.
No, you need to leave right now.
- You can't just walk away.

I made her bougatsa.
Custard in phyllo dough.
Women love a man who can cook.

- What? - Can't be serious.
- Do I have your permission? - Will you go out with me? I need to do this.
- If you didn't have a boyfriend, yes or no? - Yes.
I'm all yours.
Okay, bag him through this.
From the subxiphoid to the symphysis pubis.
Clear.
Still V-fib.
When's the last time you saw her? I told you, we were a block apart.
Resuming compressions.
- Amiodarone's onboard? - Five minutes ago.
Should've kept an eye on her.
- Pronestyl drip? - Infusing.
You could've done better? Wouldn't let her into a burning building.
Sure wouldn't have left her.
Guys.
You're doing okay, Adrian.
- Take a break.
- I got it.
Greg, go.
Adrian, we're doing what we can, okay? All you do is point, okay? UNSURE (OF WHAT'S HAPPENING) We're using all the medication we can to fix your heart.
Sometimes it takes a while.
Anything else? FAMILY You want your family? We called and they're on their way.
Fifteen-foot fall.
I packed off the liver.
Whoa, whoa.
In the field? Damn, girl.

- Was he awake? - I had etomidate.
It's always the quiet ones.
Always the quiet ones.
Look, I'll take him up to the O.
R.
Let Dubenko finish what you started.
You got big huevos, big brass ones.
They look good on you.
I had no idea what else to do.
You okay? Need you on a pulse ox.
- No, I'm fine.
- Yeah, you sound terrific.
- No, I'm okay.
- Singed nasal hairs.
- Indicates substantial smoke inhalation.
- I just need to wash up a bit.
- I would hate for you to stop breathing.
- I'd hate that too.
- Neela, come on.
- Can I at least pee first? I'll get you a bedpan.
Ninety-four in room air.
That's not great.
- There're some expiratory wheezes.
- Those will pass.
Or get worse.
I'm a bit worried here.
- Hello? - I'm sorry.
It was just Today was so Terrifying and amazing.
There was no labs, no x-rays, no rapid infusers or cutdown trays.
Just me.
I mean, maybe it's the adrenaline, but I feel high.
I need to go back out.
Sounds like I should call for a psych consult.
- Still patients out there.
- Yes, and they're being handled.
Excuse me, Abby.
Dubenko called from the O.
R.
Alice Watson died on the table.
Okay, thanks.
- Patient of yours? - Impaled abdomen.
- From the crash? - Mm-hm.
- Where are her kids? - Exam 2.
You need to be monitored.
Hey, Abby? How's he doing? Lung is up after two chest tubes.
We're going up to ICU.
- So I stopped breathing? - It was more like holding your breath.
- But I could've died.
- Theoretically, yeah.
Think you were in more danger on the plane.
- Hm.
I cheated death twice today.
- You're very lucky.
I guess I should feel bad, or guilty, or something.
But truth is I feel happy.
I have a second chance.
I'm calling off the wedding.
Oh.
You might wanna sleep on that.
No, I have been sleeping my whole life.
I never do what I wanna do.
I never say how I really feel.
- I'm not in love with her.
- Maybe you two should talk about that.
Screw that.
Screw it.
No more messing with "could have, should have, would have.
" Carpe diem.
All right.
Well, good luck with that.
Besides, I'm pretty sure, um, I'm gay.
- Getting tired? - No.
Dr.
Pratt, this is Adrian's girlfriend, his brother and his uncle.
- I explained everything.
- I'm sorry.
We gave him every kind of medication possible.
Nothing's working right now.
He's awake.
You can talk to him if you want.
Hey, you hang on.
Everyone's coming.
Pratt, check it out.
I guess she's okay, then.
Yeah.
- It's alive.
- They shut down the Dan Ryan.
It took me two hours to get here.
Where do you need me? - How about Peoria? - How'd we do? - We're still here.
- No ICU boarders? - None.
- And we're reopen for trauma? Yup.
Hey, call housekeeping for T1.
Pharmacy's here to restock.
Excuse me.
Could someone please remove these? Go for it.
- Sir, why are you restrained? - I have no idea.
Hey, Sam.
- More Sianis family members.
- I'll be right there.
- Sam, what is Haleh doing here? - Exam 2's going up to 4-West.
- I gotta help Pratt with a trauma.
- Did you bring her back? Haleh's one of the best nurses in town and we're getting our asses handed to us.
I did whatever I thought I could.
Good move.
- You need a chest x-ray.
- I told you, I'm fine.
Tell the kids I'll check on them in the morning.
- Come on.
- Please, I've been on for 16 hours.
- Yeah, well, what if your lungs get worse? - I'll call 911.
Stay at the hospital.
You can sleep in the call room.
- I need to be at home tonight.
- That might not be safe.
If I start to die, you'll be the first one I'll call.
- Fine.
I'll come and stay at your place.
- It's not necessary.
Oh.
Okay, is there anything, anything I can say to get you to stay? No.
- I slept with Luka.
- Yeah, nice try.
I can bag.
So how is this gonna go if you stop? There'll be lack of oxygen to the brain.
He'll pass out, like going to sleep.
- Is he gonna be in pain? - He's had a sedative.
He's comfortable.
And you've done everything? Yes, we have.
What, you want us to stop? Are you ready? No.
No.
No.
No.
Nine forty-two p.
m.
No.
I'm sorry.
No.
- He was a lucky guy.
- He's dead.
A lot of people loved him.
They all got a chance to say goodbye.
All right, you gotta stop calling me.
No, because we're done.
We've been done.
- No.
No.
No.
Why? Because you're not listening to me.
Let me say it to you really nice and slow for the last time.
I don't love you.
Go back to your husband.
I'm not going back to him- Hey, Dr.
Kovac.
You know, you and I should have a little sit-down.
Yeah, probably.
No, I think, like, definitely.
We're both captains on this team here.
If we break down, the whole machine breaks down.
We can't have that, especially on days like today.
I agree.
Oh, because, see, I thought I was the incident commander.
- I thought I was clear- - Know what? Let's talk tomorrow.
Yeah, tomorrow's great.
I'll be here all day, 8 to 8.
Hey.
Hi.
- Rough night.
- Yeah, I'm glad it's over.
Yeah, me too.
Did Baxter get upstairs okay? Oh, he's fine.
Not so sure about his fiancée, though.
- Listen, I was thinking that- - Sorry.
- No, you go ahead.
Go ahead.
- No.
Okay.
No, I was just thinking about Uh, I was thinking about what happened last night.
It was nice.
"Nice"? Yeah.
- Wasn't it? - No- Ha.
Yeah, of course.
- But? - What? I don't know.
I don't know.
What do we do now? Not sure.
For a long time, even when we weren't connecting a lot you've been the one person I can count on.
I feel like that too.
That means a lot to me, that friendship.
Me too.
So? Maybe we should just leave it at that, then.
I don't know.
I don't wanna lose that.
But if that's what you- That's what's the best.
So, what we're just saying is that we'll just stay friends, then.
Need a lift? No, I have some stuff I need to finish inside.
Okay.
- Good night.
- See you.
