03x04 - An English Visitor

[bunniefuu]

Hey, you guys. We just had a
fantastic rescue, you wouldn't believe it.

Hey, d*ck. How are you? How's our
favorite community relations officer?

Just fine, Johnny. Before you finish your
story, I'd like you to meet Jason Channing.

Oh. Hey,
Jason. How are you? How do you do?

This is his partner, Roy DeSoto.

Hi. Roy, pleasure.

Jason's visiting us
from England.

His fire department sent him over to
observe the paramedic program firsthand.

He's cleared to ride with you.

Can't wait to give it a go.

Listen, you're going to see
a lot of action here at 51.

In fact, we just left a rescue
you're not gonna believe.

We got the call, right.
We're going out on the call...

JOHNNY: Squad 51, 10-4.

Can I help?

Yeah. Why don't you carry this?

STANLEY: Here, the elevator.
It's jammed.

Here, take this. Thank you.
Is somebody in here, Cap?

Well, let's hope not.

JOHNNY: Okay. Quick,
give me the oxygen.

Get it?
Drag it past the fire hose.

Listen, go into the Squad
and get the trauma box.

It's in the right hand
center compartment.

Also, get a flashlight,
will you?

ROY: Got that oxygen here.

Okay, I'm going to move him
down a little bit.

[GROANS]

Okay.

Here's the oxygen.

Okay, let me get
his helmet off first.

Okay, got it.

Squad 14, standby.
There is a doctor en route.

Squad 24, go ahead.

MAN ON RADIO:
Rampart, this is Squad 24.

We have stabilized the traffic victim,
applied splints and are ready to transport.


to Treatment 1.

10-4, Rampart.

What you got, Dixie?

Oh, I think everything's
under control.

ROY: Rampart Base,
this is Rescue 51.

Go ahead, 51.

Rampart, we have a burned
police officer in his late 20s.

He's got smoke inhalation... 99,
this is Rampart. Go ahead.

Second and third-degree bums,
“patient, approximately

to 50 to 60% of his
body. Sixty years old.

Front, back and arms,
Unconscious.

Request permission
to start an IV.


with normal saline.



JASON: All right, here we go.

I'll hold it. All right.

Hang this up for me, will you?

[GROANS]

Give me a bag
of normal saline solution.

And an administration sieve,
please.

Channing, you want to give me
the sheet when you get the time?

All right. Here you go. Yep.

Thank you.

Okay.

You about wrapped up there?

Just about.

Wanna see
what started it, Chief?

Molotov cocktail.

You mean,
someone threw it down the shaft on him?

That's right.

[SIRENS WAILING]

DISPATCHER ON RADIO:


toxic chemicals are stored
in a tanker.

Use caution.

KELLY ON RADIO: Squad 51,
this is Rampart. Can you send me some EKG?

JOHNNY ON RADIO:


We're sending you a strip.
Vitals to follow.

Pulse is 160. The victim
is in extreme pain, Rampart.

[INTERCOM BEEPING]

This patient is in V-fib.

Rampart, we have lost the
victim's pulse. Beginning CPR.

[RAPID BEEPING]

We're defibrillating victim,
Rampart.

Rampart, we've defibrillated
victim. Decent sinus rhythm.

JOE ON RADIO: Administer 2 amps
sodium bicarb and insert an airway.

KELLY ON RADIO: Start an IV,


DIXIE: Squad 51, continue monitoring
Vitals and transport immediately.

JOHNNY ON RADIO:
We're on our way, Rampart.

Miss Graves,

I'm not going to bother asking you
why it's taken you so long to get here.

We'll get into that later.

Right now, I want a blood sample
from this man for type and cross-match.

Have the lab send up
four units of blood.

Also, I want a CBC,
electrolytes and BUN.

Yes, Doctor.

But I suggest you do learn
where I've been

before you jump
to any more conclusions.

Excuse me.

What do you think the
policeman's chances are, Doctor?

Well, it's really
too early to say.

We haven't ruled out
respiratory tract involvement.

And there could be
other serious complications

such as infection
and a dozen other dangers.

He's certainly on
the critical list.

Critical.

Just seems so pointless.

Then again, I can't say we're
doing a much better job of it.

Oh, Dr. Early, this is Mr. Channing.
He's visiting us from England.

Coventry.

It's Jason Channing.
How do you do, Doctor?

Mr. Channing.

I'm sure you'll learn a great
deal during your stay here.

I already have.


in her condition?

MAN ON RADIO: Negative,
Rampart. She's still unconscious.

BP is holding at 100 systolic.

She appears severely dehydrated.



Just turning
the corner, Rampart.

Should be there
in less than a minute.


straight into Treatment 3.

Sounds like 99's
got a bad one. Yeah.

[BEEPING]

DISPATCHER ON RADIO:
Squad 51, unknown injury.

204 Kantrell.



Well, shall we tottle?

Tottle?

Squad 51.

ROY: Bad? MAN: Bad.

Where was she?

In her apartment, Doctor.

Her housekeeper found
her unconscious.

Any idea how long
she's been this way?

No, sir.

Did you pick up on
that acetone odor?

Yeah, every indication
of a diabetic coma.

Dix, see if you can contact
that housekeeper.

We're going to have to start
tracking some history on her.

She looks familiar.

Yeah. Patsy Flynn.
A rock singer.

And right now,
a very sick young lady.

[SIREN WAILING]

Well, it's about time.

She could have bled to death
before you got here.

Uh-huh, and who would she be?

My wife. Who do you think
I called you for, my cat?

Our friend seems a little
under the weather, doesn't he?

Under the what? Where is she?

She's inside where I left her.

Go right in there and
get her. Help her out.

Well, welcome to my home.
Please sit down, won't you?

Homer, be a good host and
fix the gentlemen a little drinky.

Oh, no, no. We'll pass on that.

Let me have a look at this.

Oh, it's nothing.
Just a little cut.

And it's all my fault.

Now, Homer, I told you before
it was my fault.

I shouldn't have moved.

Moved?

That's what I said.

Now look what I've done.

Homer, please don't cry.

Martha, I can't help it.


didn't want to hurt you.

Hurt me?

I don't feel a thing, Homer.

You will a little
later on, ma'am.

This is a pretty nasty cut.

Well, it just serves me right
for moving around like that.

Homer never missed before.
It's all my fault.

Ah, ma'am, missed?

Right. Homer's the best.
Aren't you, Homer?

Well, I sure thought I was.

Martha, I was aiming
for the flower stem.

I missed again.

Poor dear.

He's nuts. Huh?

I said, you're nuts.

Oh.

You just watch your language,
young man.

Homer used to be the best.

Didn't you, Homer?

Martha, I'm washed up.

It's all over now.

MARTHA: Nonsense.

A little practice and we'll be right
back with the wild west shows.

Just like the old days.

He used to be the best.

He shot a cigarette
from my fingers at 50 feet.

Is that how that happened?

I told you, I moved.
It was my fault.

Uh, ma'am,

from the looks
of that flower pot

I think it was a good idea
that you did move.

He's right, Martha.

I've lost my touch.
I'm all through.

Nonsense.

We resume practice tomorrow.

It was just
one of those off days, Homer.

Martha, you really mean that?

Absolutely.

Crazy Yanks.

ROY: Well, their neighbor is
taking her to a private doctor

and he's sleeping it off.


what about the g*n?

Rampart, it's in the hands
of the police.



WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM:
Dr. Feldman, Treatment Room 4.

Dr. Feldman, Treatment Room 4.

"Yes? Shelia..."

Would you tell Dr. Early that his
patient's wife is in the waiting room?

I have these lab reports
for Dr. Brackett.

Miss Graves, I know it's rough
working for someone else

after being in charge
of your own service.

But, uh...

Well, that's in the past.

This is my service
and you work for me now.

Now, I'll take the lab reports
and you find Dr. Early.

Yes, Miss McCall.

Oh!

And one more thing.

We've had a complaint from Mrs.
Washington about your attitude.

Apparently, good nursing
isn't enough around here.

Good nursing
includes recognizing

that these patients
are people with feelings.

Anything else, Miss McCall?

Yes, there's something else!

If there's another complaint,
I'll report it.

Just be sure
you can prove it, Miss McCall.

Pressure 80 over 60.

Pulse, 130 and thready.

Respiration's deep and labored.

Mucus membranes appear very dry.

What's the blood sugar?

Eight hundred.

Looks like diabetic acidosis.

Does she have
that kind of history?

I just phoned her doctor
in San Francisco.

Her mother was a diabetic,
and Patsy's been borderline.

Housekeeper says she's
had the flu bug for a week.

In bed?

Are you kidding? She's had three
concerts this week that I know of.

[sums]

That accounts for the temperature
and probably set off the diabetic reaction.

Yeah, well, I'd say she's
been pushing herself too hard.

What else?

Hematocrit, 55.
Sodium, 150. Potassium, 5.

BUN, so. CO2, 9.

Urine shows a four plus
glucose and acetone.

Rails at right base.

Looks like the flu
is really pneumonia.

Carol, let's get
a portable x-ray, right away.

She's beginning to throw
occasional PVCs.

Check her arterial blood gases.

Start her on 100 units
regular insulin.

We'll need to push
the IV fluids.

Right, and I'll repeat
these lab studies in an hour.

Please.

Please.

Why... Why...

Easy, Patsy, easy.
You're going to be fine.

Who...

I'm Dr. Brackett, Patsy.

I'm going to take care of you.
Now, please try to rest.

Stay with me.

I need

some...

I'm going to need some more
history on her.

Her manager's out in the waiting room,
pacing like a wounded bear.

Don't leave her
for a minute, Mike.

SHIRLEY: You know
what they told me, Doctor?

He was on a call.

They telephoned a phony call
saying a child was lost.

He was trying to help somebody
that didn't even exist.

And when he got in the elevator
and the doors were closed, they...

They threw a firebomb
down the shaft.

He didn't do anything
and they tried to k*ll him.

They may have
k*lled him, Doctor.

Did they find out who did it?

They arrested some militants.

As if that would
do him any good.

I've been waiting.

Would you step into my office?

[SOBBING] It's okay.

Sit down, please.

All right.

I was getting a little tired of
that sob sister out there, anyway.

What's with Patsy?

She's a very sick girl.

So I've been told.

I'm making arrangements to
move her to another hospital

where she'll get
more personal attention.

She's not going anywhere.

You might be her manager,

but right now I happen to be her doctor,
and she's desperately ill.

So, what's wrong with her?

She's in diabetic acidosis

probably brought on
by pneumonia.

Did you know she's been sick
for at least a week?

I'm her manager, not her doctor.

Now you're catching on.

And right now, you're the only
person available

to give me some answers,
straight answers.

Is she taking any dr*gs?

Wait, wait. Hold on.

What kind of dr*gs?

I mean any kind of dr*gs.

Uppers, downers, whatever it is you
feed these kids to keep them going.

Her life depends
on a straight answer.

Well, the answer is no.

Now, you tell me.
What are you doing for her?

Well, she's been given insulin.

We'll give her more
at regular intervals.

We've also started her
on antibiotics.

So what does that mean?

It means it's touch and go.

If we've caught it in time and she can put
up with what her system's been through,

she might make it.

She better make it, Doctor.

She's worth a lot of money
to a lot of people.

Well, let's see.

Yeah, here. You can bunk
down in this bed tonight.

Thanks,
mate. It's okay. Don't mention it.

So, Jason,
how long are you going to be with us?

Oh, about three days.

Then I'm on to Miami
to observe their program.

Boy, they sure treat you guys all right
over there in England, you know that?

I was lucky to be chosen.

We'll, I'm sure you're going
to find it very educational.

Well, you've traveled
a lot, then, have you?

Well, no. I haven't traveled a lot,
but I've certainly read a lot.

I see.

You know, you can learn
a lot by reading, you know.

Well, I suppose. It's better
to see it firsthand, though.

Yeah, well, we can't all get free
trips around the world, you know?

Hey, look, why don't we take
a coffee break?

Yeah. That sounds like a real
good idea. Why don't we do just that?

Here you are.

I didn't upset him, did I?

No, no, he's fine.

He's really gung-ho, isn't he?

Yeah.

MAN ON RADIO:
Squad 99 in quarters.

Squad 99.

Hi, Joe. Hi, Dix.

How's our policeman doing?

Well, better than I expected.

I think if we can fight off the infection,
we'll have a pretty good chance.

Got Miss Graves assigned to him.

Hey, Dixie, what's
with her, anyway?

I don't know.

I chalked it up to personality.

She's been here two months
and already in her third service.

So somebody kissed her off
on you, then?

Yeah, you know,
she's got the potential,

but I just can't seem
to break through.

Doctor, help. Please help.
Something's wrong. Please.

What is it?

The IV oath broke off in his leg. I
got a tourniquet on as soon as I saw it.

Dix, get me 50 milligrams
Demerol, right away.

[SOBBING] How'd it happen?

He was coming out of sedation.
I... Will you please shut up?

Will you help him? Please...

We are trying to,
but we have to hear ourselves think, okay?

He was coming out of sedation. I guess
his pain is what caused the movement.

Portable x-ray in 104, stat!

[GROANS]

Try and keep it
as still as possible.

Let's just hope
that tourniquet stopped it.

Dix!

What's happening?

I'll explain it to you.
He won't die?

JOE: Let's get a picture
of the leg first.

Once they've taken the x-ray,

they'll know how to proceed.

Here you go. Thank you.

WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM:
Dr. Thompson, Emergency Room.

Now, the catheter is
a small tube in his vein.

You make it sound so simple.

But I saw Dr. Early,
the concern on his face.

Well, there is some danger.

If the catheter passed the tourniquet,
it could flow in his lungs.

Oh, I know.

I promised to tell you.

But you promised
something, too. Remember?

I'll try. Good.

KELLY: Chest x-ray showed
extensive pneumonia in the right lung.

What's her latest PO2?

Well, it's up to 40, but there's still
not much improvement in her lungs.

Let's hope those antibiotics
take effect soon.

Dr. Bracket,
Dr. Early would like to see you in 2.

Tell him I'll be there
in a few minutes.

He seems in
quite a hurry, Doctor.

Yes, Doctor.

She's still throwing PVCs.

[FAINTLY] I'll die. So alone...

No, you're not alone, Patsy.

I'm here with you
and Dr. Morton's with you.

And you mustn't even
think about dying, all right?

I'm scared, Doctor.

You're going to
be all right, trust me.

Get another blood sugar and
CO2 pressures every half hour.

I'll check with Joe.

Kel, the last lab report
showed a potassium of 3.2.

I want to increase
its replacement.

Right.

What do you think?

Mike.

You're seeing what can
happen to a talented girl

who's worth a lot of
money to a lot of people.

Glad you could make it, Kel.

We lost a catheter from
the IV in his ankle.

Did you get a tourniquet on it?

Yeah, but I'm afraid
not soon enough.

It's not in his leg anymore.

Did you get a chest x-ray? Yeah.

Right here.

There's the catheter.

I'll get the oath
lab set up. Okay.

Lights.

Okay.

I'm into the left
pulmonary artery.

And...

that'
do it.

I hope I can get it out.

Snare.

Keep a close eye on it,
Joe. Okay, Kel.

She's in.

Now, if I can just snare
that tube and pull it out...

A little closer.

Looks good, Kel.

You got it.

Now, if I can just
work it out of there.

Well, what are you
waiting for? Come on.

You mean he's... He's okay?

He's fine.

What's this, Shelia?

It was all my fault.

Shelia, I was with Dr. Early.

You weren't blamed for anything.

I blame me.

I could've got
the tourniquet on sooner

or, better yet,

prevented him from
moving at all.

Well, where were you
when it happened?

Right at the foot of the bed.

And what's
the first thing you did?

Tied on the tourniquet.

Well, it sounds like you
did exactly right to me.

It got through.

Shelia, you did everything
humanly possible.

Now, isn't that
what it's all about?

Being human?

It's not your fault,
so don't blame yourself.

You're very kind,
Miss McCall. Thank you.

Well, maybe we should try to
spread that kindness around?

What do you say?

Hi, you guys.
Hey, Dix. How you doing?

How was the tour?
Very impressive.

Well, thank you. We're kind
of impressed with it ourselves.

CCU proved to be the
highlight of the whole hospital.

It was very modern.

And by the way, Miss McCall,

I noticed this pretty girl
in the Orthopedics section.

She's a nurse. She's about 5'6".

Fair hair, blue eyes.

You wouldn't happen
to know her name, would you?

Oh yeah, that's... JOHNNY: Uh...

I thought you were going to hang around
the squad for a couple of days at least.

Well, for the most part,
but I...

I do want to get a full grasp of
the situation here at the hospital.

Oh, yeah, well,
that situation has already been grasped.

Orthopedics?

That girl. She's taken.

Is that so?

Yeah, I'm working on it.

Well, as you Americans say,
"Have you made out yet?"

Well, as you English say,
"
'm on the brink."

I'm sorry, John.

Well, thank you
anyway, Miss McCall.

Well, her name is Cathy Green,

and I'm sure she would find
you delightful.

Thank you, but I wouldn't want
to step on anybody's toes.

[SCOFFING]

Well...

Go ahead.
sh**t your best shot, kid.

Well, that's very sporting
of you, John.

Yeah, that's me.

A real sport.

[RADIO BEEPING]

DISPATCHER ON RADIO:

Cross street, Elmwood.
Time out, 1530.

Squad 51 responding

Well, that's that.

Maybe we'll pop back again
later on, Miss McCall.

Thank you. Ta-ta.

[SIRENS WAILING]

The driver's trapped
in the cab over there.

Hey, Dave, get those people
back. Get them out of here.

I was chasing him. I wanted to
check him out for an overload.

Took off like a scared rabbit.

I haven't the slightest idea how
he thought he'd make that corner.

Hey, Dave,
get those people out of here!

I was afraid
this was gonna happen.

Gas t*nk ruptured
when he turned over.

You Okay?

Just my ankle.
I think it's broken.

All right, hang on.

[GRUNTS]

That's peculiar.
The smell, I mean.

Okay. Here, grab a hold
of my arm.

Did you get him? Yeah.

Come on, that's it.

That's it. Okay. Straight up.

[GRUNTING]

JASON: I got him.

VICTIM: Get me out of here.

JOHNNY: Come on. Go. Go!

I'll get the splint box. Okay.

Here. Let's just lay him
over here.

Okay. Easy. Okay,
easy, easy. All right.

Okay. That smoke is
getting in my head.

Likewise.

Listen,
how about we just get out of here, huh?

Yeah, that's a good idea.
Where do you want to go?

To a hospital, eh?

Oh, yeah. Well,
that's a good idea,

but I think I want to
check you out here first.

Look, I'd rather do it there.

I'd rather do it here.
Now, just hang on.

Okay, let's have an ax, pal.
Come on.

Hey. Where you going? Huh?

Where you going?

Oh, to get the ax.

It's just...
He's got a broken ankle

from what I can see.

How do you feel?

Fine.

Well, you can take care
of this, huh?

Yeah, I can handle it.

Let's go.

All right, let's slide this
under here.

It might hurt a bit.

Let's drag this cargo over there so
we can put some water on it, huh?

Hey, Gage, guess what.

Yeah, I know. This is grass.

Pot.

This truck's full
of marijuana bricks.

Well, now we know
why he tried to split.

Wasn't a terribly
bright chap, was he?

That's more than I've
ever seen in any one place.

I better get back
over to that driver.

Oh, uh, Roy is splinting his
ankle over there on the grass.

So to speak.

Yeah.

Boy...

Yeah, I know. Crazy Yanks.

Look, I've only one question.

Why is it you guys
didn't use your air masks?

Well, I guess by the time we
realized what was happening

we were too far gone
to do anything about it.

WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM:
Dr. Adler, wanted in Surgery.

Well, what's next?

Well, we can always dig up something
socially significant for a change.

Uh, Roy,

could you give me about
five minutes before we leave?

Sure. What's up?

I thought I'd pop up to the
Orthopedic ward for a minute. All right.

Um, it's getting a little
late, you know.

And I think they've got dinner
waiting for us back at the station.

Well, that would be a little difficult,
being it's your turn to cook.

I won't be long.

Thanks a bunch!

HARRY: What do you mean,
she's not responding?

Just what I said.
We're not miracle workers.

What have you done to that girl?

What have I done?

She's overworked,
sick with pneumonia

and you still have her pumping
out half a dozen concerts a week.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

In our racket, you gotta
make it while you're hot.

Well, she's just about
burned out.

The only thing she's got
going for her is her age.

The only reason she's in here
is pure neglect.

Neglect? Yes, neglect.

Her temperature is way up.
The pneumonia has worsened

an otherwise
mild diabetic condition.

She's not responding
to treatment. She may die.

Can't you give her some more
insulin or something?

She's getting all she can take
without going the other way,

into shock,
which could also k*ll her.

She's so young.

I know, but she's not a machine.

WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM: Dr. Brackett,
Dr. Brackett. Treatment Room 2, stat.

On my Way-

What is it?

She started throwing more PVCs
then went into V-fib.

[BEEPING]

Get a crash cart in here. Joe,
tell them we got a Code Blue.

JOE: Code Blue in Room 230.

Five, Doctor.

Let's roll her. Roll her.

All right. Got it.

All right.

Four hundred seconds.
Four hundred.

Clear. Clear.

Again.

SHELIA: Four hundred.

Go.

She's converted.

Tight.

Too tight. Dix, get a pressure.

Breathing's still
a little shallow.

Start a Levophed drip. Give
her two amps of sodium bicarb.

Mike.

Check her arterial blood gases
and electrolytes, stat.

Get me a lab up here.

DIXIE: 85 systolic.

If we don't stop
that infection...

[ALARM SOUNDING]

Washington Road and Arrow Highway.

Washington Road and Arrow

Sounds like a real dandy, eh?

Yeah, I think we may not make it
back in time for your dinner date.

Got a man trapped
in the jaw crusher, up there.

I don't know how bad he's hurt. Yeah,
we'll take a look.

All right, I'll grab a line.
Jason, get the HT.

Roy, we'll relay up any equipment
you may need. The snorkel's en route.

Do you mind if I come along?

Cap?

Come on up.

He was repairing
a bucket elevator.

Don't really know what caused him to fall,
probably working too fast.

Anyway, we're shut down
till we can get it fixed.

He's likely to be
in pretty bad shape.

Chet, you better get a Stokes ready. Marco,
you can lay their gear out.

JASON: Glad they let me come.

ROY: Well,
you came all this way.

Cap probably felt you
should get your money's worth.

JASON: Lucky for me.

Gives me a chance
to watch you firsthand.

JOHNNY: Look, Channing,

just be careful.

We don't want to have to
rescue you, too.

Thanks, John.

Hang on to the HT for me,
will you?

[GROANS]

I see him.

How you doing?

I can't move my leg.

I think it's broken.

Well, look. You sit tight now
and don't move, okay?

I'm gonna try to
get down here with you.

[GROANS]

Man, I'm hurting.

Johnny!

I'm gonna need a leg splint
and a drug box.

Channing! Yeah!

We're gonna need a leg splint
and a drug box.

Hello. Yeah, this is Channing.

We need a leg splint
and a drug box.



Oh, I'm hurting.

[GROANING]

Look, we're gonna get you
out of here in just a minute.

Johnny, you better get me
a jack and set up the Stokes.

I'm gonna need the HT.

You all right? Yeah.

There you go.

Engine 51, this is John. We're
gonna need a Stokes and a jack.

Yeah, they're coming up.

Look out. Look out!

Your hand's slipping.
Just hold on.

[JOHNNY GRUNTING]

JOHNNY: You're coming
off the platform.

Don't worry about me.

[GRUNTING] I...

Just hold on, all right?

Now.

JOHNNY: You're gonna fall, too.

I'm gonna pull you up.

Okay, pull.

Pull, man, pull.

Come on.

Come on.

Man, you could've
k*lled yourself.

Just one of the risks
we firemen take, isn't it?

Thanks, man.

Anytime, sport.

Hey, what's going on up there?

Uh, yeah. We'll be right there.

Jason and I are
just getting reacquainted.

Oh, man. Let's get out of here.

She's breathing much more
easily now, Kel.

Her cardiac rhythm has been
stable for the past hour.

BP is holding without Levophed.

Blood sugar is down to 150
and the PO2 is 85 on room air.

You did it, Kel.
She's stabilizing.

You're gonna make it, Patsy.

You're gonna make it.

Dr. Brackett.

You didn't leave me.

DIXIE: He sure didn't.

What's happened?

Broken leg.

Where's your friend?

He's up in Orthopedics
picking up his dinner date.

Oh, he beat you out, huh?

WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM: Can
I have a doctor in Treatment 1?

I'll see you chaps later.

I doubt it.

Beat you out, huh?

No, he did not beat me out.

In fact, I even arranged to
have his dinner tab picked up.

How about that.

I just figured I owed him,
that's all.

I mean, he's probably seeing more
action now than he will in a lifetime,

and I just want to be
part of it, that's all.

Nope. What do you mean, "nope"?

I was talking to the captain.

See, one of the reasons he's on this tour,
he was partially disabled in a fire.

Took out eight people by himself and spent
the next three months in the hospital.

Jason Channing just happens
to be a real live genuine hero.

[SCOFFS]

Well, can you beat that?

Well, just goes to show you.

Goes to show you what?

Oh, that's why he picked up so
fast on everything I tried to teach him.

WOMAN ON PA SYSTEM:
Attention all wards.

Attention all wards,
visiting hours are now all over.

Good night.
