- No problem.

Keep the change.

Oh, God. Oh, God.

It hurts so bad. It started in the
store. My children-- Grandchildren....

Would you like to see pictures
of my grandchildren?

I have four sons and three
grandchildren. Let me show you.

I miss them so much! I miss them!

That son-of-a-bitch cardiologist!
My sister met the president....

Thank you. We're the new third-year
students looking for Dr. Greene.

- Great tan.

Where's Dr. Benton,
and has he been asking about me?

Once or twice.
He's doing a crash section.

Pregnant woman got sh*t.
He just limped up.

- Hi, Dr. Greene.
- Who is that?

- Carter, I think. Dr. Benton's student.
- Tell him to slow down.

I am on the phone with Cardiology
every day. They claim the CCU's full.

I go up and there are empty beds.
We had a rule-out MI here for two days.

You're an Attending now. Got a
problem with another department...

...you solve it. And you've got
new third-years coming in today.

- Today?
- Four of them, bright-eyed.

Staff meeting at : . Don't forget.

- Forget what?
- My first staff meeting's today.

Little boss, what did big boss want?

Something about me accepting
the heavy mantel of my new position.

- You set the tone, right?
- How are you set for cash?

If you need the bucks,
I'm strapped for cash right now.

No, I'm making up a schedule
for next week.

Maybe you could pull a graveyard
Attending shift, get extra cash.

- Consider it done.
- Dr. Greene?

Three lost sheep claiming to be
med students.

I thought there were four of them.

One's doing a history of a bipolar.
She'll be done by next Tuesday.

- This way, guys.
- Jerry?

Anything of the pediatric persuasion
up there?

I've got a Scandinavian flight attendant
with a bum ankle and an earache.

And you saved her all for me?

I love you, big man. You know that.

Nine months pregnant.
Couldn't find the b*llet?

Gotta be in the uterus somewhere.

Pressure barely holding.
No time to waste.

- Dr. Benton?
- Carter, don't bother coming in here.

I'm sorry. I came straight
from the airport.

- Hurricane Phyllis in the Gulf.
- Your student?

- Don't remind me.
- Nice tan.

Student, what is the most important
anatomical structure to identify?

- The uterus?
- Ureter.

You cut that and you're in big trouble.
She can't pee.

- What's its name?
- Carter.

Basic anatomy. What muscle forms
the floor of the pelvis?

Levator ani.

The ovarian artery comes off the aorta
just above the....

- Comes off the aorta to....
- Inferior mesenteric artery.

Doesn't the word "student" imply that
you should be teaching him something?

- Hello.
- I'm Dr. Ross, and you must be....

- Hulda.
- Hulda.

What a beautiful name, Hulda.
What seems to be the problem?

- I hurt my ankle. It hurts very much.
- Let's take a look at it.

A man dropped his little vodka bottle
in the aisle and she slipped.

It tickles.

Haleh, lateral AP
and oblique views, please.

It doesn't seem to be broken.

We're gonna get some x-rays and
may consider a cast, just to be safe.

Oh, and my ear is very sore.
For many months.

All this going up and coming down,
I think. Yes?

Look, we're really busy today
and I didn't know you were coming.

Park yourselves in here, and I'll come
round you up when I get a minute.

Here you go. And Harrison 's Principles
of Internal Medicine.


Rosen 's, volumes one, two and three.
Start reading.


- Hey, who's that?
- Med students. Gave them Harrison 's.


Wow, that'll keep them busy.
I need you in Curtain .

There's another student
floating around with a bipolar.

Could you try and find them?

- So who's gonna be the new chief?
- You?

- Maybe next year when I'm eligible.
- Who do you think it should be?

Jane Pratt. She's smart, nice, easy
to work with. Your decision, right?

I'll find out this afternoon. You guys
were roommates for a while, right?

Me.

How are you doing, sir?

- Not so good. I got a headache.
- Probably the nitro.

- Why is he down here?
- CCU is full again.

Sir, you're gonna have to stay down
here for a little longer.

So you can just relax
and enjoy the peace and quiet....

Jerry, for God's sake, shut him up!
Will you, please?

- I'll try Cardiology again.
- Thanks.

- So it's Jane for chief resident?
- Why not?

Carter, get ready to suction.
Here she comes.

- How does she look?
- She's breathing. Color, tone: Fair.

Apgar?

- Eight.
- Cord's cut. Carter, come with me.

No exit wound in the uterus.

- Okay, Carter, see the holes?
- Oh, yes. Thighs.

We've got through-and-through
g*nsh*t wounds to both thighs.

- Got it! In the placenta.
- Prep for an umbilical line.

Carter, start dressing the wounds.
Rocephin and oxacillin, mg each.

Displace the uterus anteriorly. Check
the other organs for penetrating injury.

- You're gonna be just fine, Mom.
- Hell of a way to make an entrance.

- This is your lucky day.
- Oh, you're gonna be fine. Just fine.

- You jet-ski?
- That's me.

- Haleh, diet or regular?
- Unleaded.

Hey, hey! Listen up, everybody.
We don't have a lot of time.

Admin sent us another action memo.

"Excessive use of surgical supplies.

Personnel must exercise prudence
in the use of expendables...

...i.e. x s, gloves, surgical tape,
suture kits."

Why don't I just bring a needle
and thread from home?

"And alcohol wipes." Next, ACLS.

Steph, you're up October .
And, Wendy, you've never certified.

- What is it?
- Don't worry, you're gonna love it.

CPR re-certification.
Lily, Lydia, Haleh.

- Saturday afternoon, : .
- This week? Man, I've got Sox tickets.

MICN ride-alongs. Joanie, you've got
to get your hours in before Halloween.

Lily, if it makes you feel any better,
I've procrastinated.

Now I have to do a paramedic
ride-along or I lose my certification.

Are you happy?

Last, but not least, the hated peach.

They have stopped making this
particularly delightful shade.

Take a look at the catalog
and get back to me with your choice.

I look bad in that green.

Carol, 's three minutes out,
and they're in trouble.

I need your picks by the end of the day.
Most votes wins, unless I hate it.

And then, whatever I like goes.

- What is this all about?
- Air conditioning repairs.

- Mark? Hi.
- Hi, Jane. How are you doing?

Susan told me that she talked to you
about my becoming chief resident.

I didn't put her up to it.

I really want the job,
but I didn't ask her to approach you.

- No, I didn't think you had.
- I hear Kerry Weaver's interested.

- Weaver? Really? Over at Mount Sinai?
- She'd do a good job.

- I'll do it better.
- All right, thanks.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- I thought I'd left enough time.
- You get here an hour before me.

You pre-round my patients.
You order tomorrow's labs after I leave.

You check out my surgical schedule
and study the cases the night before.

What did you get read this summer?
Schwartz's Principles of Surgery?


Sabiston 's Essentials?

Surgical Secrets?

Let me get a turkey breast on whole
grain, lettuce, tomato, extra sprouts.

No mayo.
Carter, you reflect on me now.

You screw up, I screw up.

If you don't know an answer,
that's because I didn't teach you.

No mayo.
What do you want, Carter?

Can I get a Polish dog with extra
onions, extra peppers, and cheese.

A lot of cheese. Please.

Surgery is the most difficult
specialty of all.

Fifteen students wanted this spot
and will want the surgical residency.

Now, do you wanna be a surgeon?

Well, then you start acting
like a surgeon.

We've got a thyroidectomy
this afternoon.

What do you know about the arteries
in the neck?

There's a lot of them.

You have an hour and minutes.
I suggest you locate a Gray's...


...and start memorizing it.

Hi. I'm Dr. Greene.

- What seems to be the problem?
- I have a rash on my thighs.

- Anywhere else?
- Not this time.

Why don't you hop up on the bed,
and I'll take a look.

- Ms....
- Sweet. Loretta Sweet.

- Are you sexually active?
- No, mostly I just lie there.

- Do you use condoms?
- Lf I owned the factory I'd be rich.

- Looks like contact dermatitis.
- Is that bad?

No. A little cortisone cream
will clear it right up.

You're allergic to something
you came in contact with.

Right.

I'd try and avoid coming into contact
with it again in the future.

I've got two kids at home, you know.

- Anything else I can do for you?
- No, thanks.

Anytime.

Adult male found passed out
in his own vomit.

- BP / on arrival, pulse .
- Daddy!

Resps shallow at . Tremulous.
Stopped breathing two minutes out.

I can't ventilate him. Cyanotic.
Pulse up to .

There's airway obstruction.
We gotta move him fast.

- He's had glucose and Narcan.
- Daddy!

- The kid found him. Called .
- Daddy!

- Out of the way!
- Daddy!

Nope. Damn it!

Somebody get Mark.
We need a crike tray, now!

Pupils are four millimeters,
equally reactive.

No sign of trauma. Two IVs with saline
wide open, one liter so far.

We've sucked cc's of blood
from his upper airway.

- Two, three....
- Again!

- How much time?
- Almost three minutes.

- Where's the damn doctor?
- Daddy!

- Again!
- One, two, three.

- We're out of time. Crike him!
- Again. Harder!

Get this kid out of here!

You're not gonna die on my shift, you
son of a bitch. Come on. Come on.

I got it!

All right, hyperventilate him.

- Daddy!
- Out of the way!

- All right, what have we got?
- Airway obstruction, male.

Approximately years old.
Tremulous.

Possible impending D.T.'s, maybe septic,
maybe stroke, metabolic derangement.

CBC, Chem- , coag panel,
UA and a chest.

Push D normal saline. He's
dehydrated. Get a banana bag going.

- Carol, get a blood gas.
- Coming up.

Doctor! Doctor!

- Who the hell is that?
- Some drunk looking for a hot meal.

- How long he been at it?
- About an hour.

Damn irritating, isn't it?

At least he hasn't learned
to say "nurse" yet.

- Nice tan.
- Thanks.

- What's that?
- Anatomy of the neck.

- Forget it. Too many arteries.
- Exactly.

- I thought this year would be easier.
- Wait till you start your residency.

Want to show a third-year
how to start an IV?

- No.
- You haven't seen her yet.

I shave my legs. I used to wax them,
but that hurt so much.

I love candlelight and Christmas music.
And the smells.

Mulled cider and chestnuts.
I haven't had a chestnut in years.

- Hi. You're the new med student?
- Yes. Thank you.

- Harper Tracy.
- John Carter. How's it going?

Well, I've tried to take her history,
but we didn't pass the Crimean w*r.

You are very handsome.
Are you a doctor? My son's a doctor.

- I play the cello. Do you like music?
- Yes, sometimes.

This is Mrs. Constantine. I think she
has cellulitis, left lower extremity.

- It's swollen, warm and tender.
- Haydn, Bach, Saint-Saëns....


I'd say you're right. Sounds right.
Are you in any pain, ma'am?

The pain?

- She's also clearly bipolar.
- Right.

Dr. Lewis wanted me to show you
how to start an IV.

Pull this little gizmo out.

- Find your vein. Go in bevel up.
- I play the cello....

Advancing slowly until you see
a flash. Needle out, cath in.

- Thanks. Got it.
- Really?

Madrid, Tokyo, Milano...

...Buenos Aires, Barcelona....

- Ow!
- I'm sorry, ma'am.

- Wow, you hit it the first time.
- The Pittsburgh Youth Symphony.

Second chair. I should've been first
chair, but the conductor, bastard...

...was sleeping with a fat Italian girl
who couldn't carry a tune.

Sex, sex, sex!

Same with my husband.
He doesn't care if I'm tired.

- Thanks, John. I can take it from here.
- Day or night.

- But I could dance all night....
- Okay, then.

I would like to put the moon
under my heels...

...and go flying up, up into the sky.

Hey, Jerry.

Do you know where the kid is,
from that alcoholic airway obstruction?

Thanks.

Sure it's not that one?

- Nice shirt.
- That's all I had.

- What are you doing?
- Noah's fixing the VCR.

It has a tape stuck in it.

You be cool now, Noah, you hear?

- Your dad's gonna be okay.
- I know.

He's gonna have to stay with us
for a while. Is your mom coming?

She lives in Florida.

Is there someone else
who could come get you?

My dad will take me home in a while.
He never stays in the hospital.

He's done this before?

And you called .
That was very smart.

Have you done that before too?

Lots of times?

Do you have a Phillips head?

Sure.

You really know what you're doing.

- She's still down here?
- Kayson says he has no new beds.

- I think we're being followed.
- Student.

- Harper Tracy.
- Greene, Mark.

- No, actually, my first name is Harper.
- The bipolar?

Off her meds. Psych got her back on
lithium, admitted her for IV antibiotics.

- How's the Jell-O, Mr. Kuzner?
- Delightful.

We're gonna have you out of here
as soon as we can.

Jerry? How long is it gonna be until
we get this air conditioning fixed?

A week ago Thursday.

Didn't they find asbestos in this
building a couple of years ago?

No, not again.

- Kiss little Susie for me.
- Yeah.

Dr. Lewis. Pour vous.

- A taste from the islands.
- Well, thank you.

- Dr. Greene.
- Yeah?

I have something for you.

- There you go.
- Thank you.

Carol.

Carter, it's beautiful. Thank you.

- All right.
- Carter!

Where are my charts?

Maybe you should've saved
one of these for yourself.

Oh, but I did.

Here you go.

Jerry?

Why are there three kids in cheap ties
reading textbooks in Exam ?

- Damn. The med students. I forgot.
- Dr. Greene, staff meeting's in five.

Could you see if they need anything
and tell them I'll be back in an hour?

Sure. Right.

- Dr. Ross, a little taste of the islands.
- Carter, you shouldn't have.

- It's Wondoa, the god of fertility.
- Just what you need, Doug.

- Come on, Mark. I'll walk with you.
- To the staff meeting?

Yeah, I'm nurse manager. I always go.
Nice hat.

- See you.
- Yeah, see you.

Carter, O.R. Let's go.

- You should put some ice on that.
- I'm fine.

I think I got the neck arteries down.
The common carotid, superior thyroid....

Thyroidectomy is called off.
We're doing a hernia.

I hope you know your way around
Hesselbach's triangle.

Folks, can we get started?
Please, can we start on time?

Mark Greene is joining us
as an Attending...

...now that he has completed
his residency.

Mark, any thought as to who should
succeed you as chief resident?


I was thinking Jane Pratt would be
an excellent choice.

Is she that blond
who always wears sweaters?

No. Brunette, tall.

She's very smart. Well-liked.
Easy to get along with. Very competent.

That's how I would describe you.

You might want someone who'd
complement your weaknesses.

- Which are...?
- Discipline, paperwork, administration.

- Any other candidates?
- She'd be my first choice.

Carol, any thoughts?

Pratt's the best of this year's crop.
She'd take the least babysitting.

Do you know Kerry Weaver
over at Mount Sinai?

- Only by reputation.
- I'd like you to meet her.

Okay.

Can we get this Ross thing
finally resolved today?

Nobody thinks this is important,
but why is my Pediatric budget...

...carrying the cost
of an ER fellowship for Doug Ross?

It's an ER Pediatrics fellowship, Neal.

Then put him under my supervision.

I'll keep him in the clinic
where I'm severely understaffed.

When there's a real pediatrics
emergency, you can call him down.

- They need him in the ER full-time.
- Then let them pay!

They're severely under-budgeted,
and you know it.

- I like him, but he's a bit of a cowboy.
- A bit?!

David, he's arrogant and dismissive
of my authority.

Now, I'm warning you right now.

When his fellowship comes up
for renewal in November...

...I'm not gonna sign off on it. You
want him, you find the money for him.

Let's jump off that bridge
when we get to it.

Mark, we need to talk about who gets
to cover the Attending swing shifts.

It's a nice piece of change.
Any thoughts?

No. I'II....

I'll get you some names later.

Next on the agenda, we've got
a JCAH inspection coming up.

Come on, people. This is what allows
us to call ourselves a hospital.

Help me!
Please, somebody help me!

It's my brother! Please!
He fell off the boat!

Grab the gurney on the side.

- Come on, man. Please.
- No spontaneous resps.

Get an ambu-bag and set up suction.

- Jerry, Trauma open?
- No, air conditioning guys are there.

- Curtain .
- Get Respiratory down here, stat.

Stop. Lily, we're gonna need a scribe.

- Pulse ox is . He's hypoxic.
- ET tray, seven and a half.

- Please, what's happening?
- Sir, you have to wait outside.

Get these air conditioning guys
out of here now!

Anybody get a blood gas?

Please, please....

- Tracy, come here where you can see.
- Oh, God. Don't do this, man.

- Core temp's at .
- CBC, Chem- , coag panel.

Don't die. Please.

- Are those meetings always that fun?
- Kind of boring this week.

Nobody took a swing at anybody.

Do they always talk about residents
like that?

- Wanna hear what they said about you?
- That drunk with the kid...

...he's trying to check himself out AMA.

It's none of my business, but Jane
Pratt? I think Morgenstern has a point.

I didn't get a chance to thank you
for the Attending shifts.

I'm kind of behind on my car payments,
you know?

- You've worked with Kerry Weaver?
- Yeah, we've crossed paths.

Morgenstern wants me
to consider her for chief.

- Really?
- That bad?

Did you ever see Cuckoo 's Nest?

- I hear you're going someplace.
- Yeah. Where's my kid?

- Noah's in the lounge watching cartoons.
- Well, get him. We're going home.

You're suffering from severe
electrolyte imbalance.

Your white blood count is high,
and you probably have pneumonia.

I just need to sleep it off.

You need to be admitted for fluids
and IV antibiotics.

So you can charge me
bucks like last time?

Let's talk about last time.

You were drowning in your own vomit.
Your son called it in. Just like today.

- Where's my damn shirt?
- We had to cut it off you.

I paid bucks for that shirt!
Who's gonna pay me? You?!

Somebody-- I swear to God,
somebody's gonna pay for that...

...if I don't find that shirt.
Where the hell--?

You're not going anyplace.

I don't know why, but for some reason
that boy cares about you.

Stay and get straightened out.
Give Noah something to be proud of.

- He's not warming up fast enough.
- He's in V-fib.

Damn it, let's shock him. Two hundred.

Clear. Harper, clear.

- Nothing.
- Three hundred. Clear.

- Someone get them out of there.
- Hey! Get down out of there!

- What?
- Come down now!

Three-sixty. Clear.

Hey, we've got a b*at.

Hey, Davey, are you okay?

What are the borders
of Hesselbach's triangle?

- Some kind of vessel.
- Deep inferior epigastric.

- And a ligament. Poupon.
- That's a mustard, Carter.

Poupart's ligament
and the rectus sheath.

You didn't get one of Dr. Hicks'
questions right.

You told me we were doing
a thyroidectomy....

Embarrass me in front of another surgeon
and you'll spend the rest of your Sub-I...

-...suturing bagel cuts and baby falls.
- Rescue 's on its way.

The g*ng sh**ting?
Somebody sh*t the sh**t.

Dr. Greene? Heard a lot of great things
about you.

I'm Kerry Weaver.

- Oh, hi. I'm Mark. Sit down.
- Thank you.

Just eating something.

So Morgenstern says you're gonna
need a lot of help around here.

Really?

- Gonna finish those fries?
- No.

So when do I start?

- Are we all set for this guy's airway?
- Yep.

- What happened?
- Guy fell through the ceiling.

- Landed on a patient.
- You're kidding.

Broke the patient's ribs and his own leg.

-year-old male.
Shotgun to the chest at close range.

- No vitals. No pulses. Nothing.
- Welcome back, guys.

- This the sh**t of the pregnant lady?
- So they say.

- His chest is a mess, you guys.
- Carter, CPR. Six units O-neg.

- Tube's leaking.
- Asystole.

Man, I think I just punched
right through his ribs.

Skip it. Let's tube him! Amp of epi.

- Seven and a half.
- Kind of rusty at this.

- Find the cords and thread it through.
- Do it now, Carter.

- Let's cr*ck him.
- I got it.

Spreader!

Carter, retract that lung. Here we go.

- Whoa, man....
- Just take a deep breath, all right?

I need you to stay on your feet here.

He's totally dry. Trendelenberg!

- Think I'm gonna be sick.
- No, you're not. Come on, internal CPR.

- Fibrillating!
- Damn! His right ventricle is hit.

Twenty-five. Clear!

We got a b*at! Nope, it's gone.

Fifty! Clear!

- Asystole!
- Well, that helped a lot.

Man, smells kind of like a barbecue
in here, huh?

Oh, God....

Welcome back, Carter.

- Oh, no. Please....
- He's gonna be okay.

Thank you. Thank you.

He does have
a couple of broken ribs.

All right, that's it.

Good try, people.

He was dead
before he came in the door.

- Who's got the death bundle?
- I'll get it.

You all right?

Good. Sew him back up. Nothing fancy.
I'll see you at a.m. Sharp.

And, Carter. Prostatectomy
in the morning.

Adrenalectomy for a
pheochromocytoma in the afternoon.

- Hey, guys. Here's your equipment.
- Excuse me.

- The kid make it?
- No.

- It's Hathaway, right?
- Yeah.

This is Shep. Raul.

- Well, see you around, Hathaway.
- Oh, hey, guys.

I have to do a ride-along
for my MICN re-certification.

Mind if I tag along with you next week?

Sure. You bet. Anytime, Hathaway.

- What?
- Nothing.

- It's not like that.
- I didn't say a thing.

Nurse Hathaway,
what are you doing tonight?

I thought maybe I'd rent a movie.
Make some popcorn.

- Maybe I'll bring a pizza.
- I don't remember inviting you.

- You didn't. I invited myself.
- Good night.

- My rule-out MI is still not in CCU.
- I can't miss the train.

What's the point of having a CCU
if you can never get anyone into it?

If I don't make it to Union Station
in minutes...

...I'm gonna be walking to Milwaukee.

- Mark, you need to do something.
- I will. I promise, first thing Monday.

Hey, I heard you hired Kerry Weaver
as chief.

That's definitely a move
in the right direction.

- You didn't hire Jane?
- No, I didn't.

Were you planning on letting me
read it off the board?

It was my decision. I made it.

I gotta pick Susie up from daycare.

Hey, Dr. Greene....

Those medical students
are still in Exam .

Want me to send them home?

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Yes, yes, you're the young lady
who helped me earlier today, aren't you?

Mrs. Constantine,
are you feeling better?

Well, I'm a bit tired.

Did I tell you that I play the cello?

- Once or twice.
- Sorry.

Well, I would like to play something
for you as a kind of thank-you.

I don't think that's necessary.

My son brought my cello to me.

It helps me pass the time
until I get better.

Really. You don't have to do this.

I mean, maybe you shouldn't do this.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah.

No, I'm fine.

- Tough first day back, huh?
- Yeah.

Some days, like today, I have to forget
or I'd never come back.

- So did you have a good summer?
- Yeah, it was great.

Really.

I did a pedes rotation
over at Children's...

...and spent about five weeks kicking
around St. Bart's.

Really? I always wanted to go.
Was it nice?

Yeah.

Hey, Doc! Doc!
Can you give us a hand?

Kid on a bike got hit by a car.
Full arrest.

- I'll see you tomorrow, okay?
- Yeah, see you tomorrow.

Okay, give me the b*llet!

Sorry.

Hold on!

No, hold it. Thanks.

Chloe? Is dinner almost ready?
I am starving.

Yeah, all we gotta do is drop in
the pasta and we're all set.

Hello, my beautiful girl.

Hi. Hi, prettiest girl.

- How was school today?
- Great.

They're teaching us how to use Word
and the spreadsheets.

Honey, you wanna come up
and say hi to Mommy?

Okay, here we go.
Let me get your head there.

There we go.

Oh, no.

Whoops. There we go,
there we go. That's good.

Yes, you're okay.

Yes. Oh, no, no. It's okay.

Okay.

It's okay.

I missed you. Yeah.

Oh, God....

What time is it?

Oh, God.

Oh, man.

Peter?

- Peter, hey, wake up.
- What?

We fell asleep.

It's almost midnight.

Oh, man....

What time does he get off work?

In minutes.

Hey....

Why don't you stay?

You know I can't.

I love you.

I'll see you tomorrow.
