03x12 - Body Language

Post by bunniefuu »

So on our way back,

Joanne's in the front seat with me
and the kids are in the back seat...

Are you listening to me?

Huh?

What is with you today?

I don't know, it's...
It's just...

I don't know. It's dumb. It's...

Man, I don't want
to talk about it!

Why don't you go ahead
and tell me? You will, anyway.

I don't know, man...
It's just...

Some days, they just don't
go right. They're just...

It's incredible.
It's lack of communication,

it's misunderstanding,
it's confusion.

It's incredible! It's the whole bag,
it's unbelievable, it's...

Sorry. All right, I've got it.

Will you just leave it alone?

Well, if I'm following you,

and I'm not really sure I am,

the English translation is that

a young lady has once again
rejected you, right?

[sums]

ROY-

[ALARM SOUNDING]

DISPATCHER ON RADIO: Station 51,
Engine 36, Truck 116.


Small aircraft in trouble.

Information reports
it may crash near.


Essex Highway and Welton Road.

Essex Highway and Welton Road. Time out,


STANLEY: Squad 51,


[HORN BLARING]

There it is, right there.

Looks like a crop duster
cutting out.

Roy, I don't think
he's gonna make it.

[CRASHING]

I'll go grab the dry powder.

L.A., Engine 51.
We've got a small plane down.

No fire. Cancel other units.

Station 51 out in 20 minutes.

Roy, give that guy
a hand down there.

DISPATCHER ON RADIO: Station 51.

His legs are stuck. Hold him up.

All right.

Okay-Okay-

You got him? Got him.

Go.

Okay. Watch his head, now. Okay.

Yeah, just drag him on out.

Drag his feet on out.
That's right.

Rampart, this is Squad 51.

Rampart, this is Squad 51.
Come in, please.


MIKE: Negative on metaraminol. Stand by,


BP does not warrant.

Mike, I got a full arrest.
Can you take 51's call?

Right.



Stand by, 14. Go ahead, 51.

Rampart, we have a plane crash.

One victim, male, about 55.
He's unconscious.

We've removed him
from the wreckage.

Stand by for vital signs.

BP is 100 over 80.

Pulse is 85.

Respiration's...

He stopped breathing.

I'll patch him in here.

Look at that.

Johnny.

Chet! CHET: Yeah?

Gonna have to give him
some oxygen here.

Rampart, this is Squad 51.

MIKE: Go ahead, Squad 51.

Victim has stopped breathing.
We got him on O2.

He's got a perforating wound
in the anterior chest.

We're applying Vaseline gauze.

Blood pressure is 100 over 80.

Pulse is 85.



Start an IV with Ringer's.



Okay.

Take that off him now.

Roy! John! Yeah?

You know, that t*nk's ruptured

and it smells to me like he
was spraying with parathion.

Have you checked him out
for contact with it?

ROY: Yeah, there's nothing
here, Captain.

JOHNNY: What's this? Hey, hey.
Wait a minute.

He's got parathion all over him. We're
gonna have to wash him off. Marco!

Yeah? Get that line over here!

Right on,
Cap! Hold him down. He won't stay still.

Can you grab his legs?

Yeah, he won't stay still.
Don't! Don't!

You're gonna be fine. Just
settle down, settle down.

Rampart, this is Squad 51.

Go ahead, 51.

Rampart, we have
a second victim.


Extensive skin contact
with parathion.


The BP is 100 over 70.
The pulse is 110.

Excessive saliva,
mild shortness of breath.

We've washed the exposed areas.


atropine IV.

Use esophageal airway
if mucous and saliva build up.

Blockage may result. Transport.

How's your pneumothorax doing?



They want to know
how he's doing. Right.

Rampart, the BP on the
pneumothorax patient is still under 100.

We got possible other
internal bleeding. Pulse is 90.

The heart's in sinus rhythm.
You want a strip?


Negative, 51.

Start a second IV with
Ringer's. Transport both patients.



No, please don't. I
don't need it. I'm not sick.

Now, look.
Settle down. Settle down.

You've been covered
with parathion.

Now, that's very poisonous.

Now, this is going to
help you out.

We're gonna take you to the
hospital. You're gonna be fine.

This one's ready to transport.

Roy, I'm gonna go in with him.

All right. Just pick him up.
He's all right.

ROY: We're about ready
to transport over here.

Okay.

All right. Up.

Doc, this Walker's
gonna ruin me.

Why can't I have crutches
like everybody else?

Because the walker
is better for you.

But you know what
the kids will say!

I don't care what they'll say,

and you shouldn't either.

Doc, you don't know
what this is doing to me.

Yes, I do.

It's going to get you well
as fast as possible. Okay?

WOMAN ON PA:
Dr. Hoffman, Treatment Room 1.


Dr. Hoffman, Treatment Room 1.

Dr. Marcus, Receiving Room.

Dr. Marcus, Receiving Room.

What'
you say happened
to the crutches?

I'll just say I lost them.

This place is too big to keep
track of everything anyhow.

Hi, boys.

You win some, you lose some.

They're gonna m*rder me
on my block.

Better them than me.

MAN ON RADIO: He's wearing
a diabetic Medic Alert tag,


but I can't tell
whether it's coma or shock.


Check his respiration,
his skin and smell his breath.

10-4, Rampart.

Here comes my plane crash, Dix.

I'll take over. Thanks.

Take him into 2.

Take him in 3.

He fought me till he passed out.

It's lucky for him that you won.

Parathion works fast.

Yeah, I know, man.
And he had it all over him.

He was just soaked in it.

He got it on him when he
was trying to get the pilot out.

Well, he's holding
his own, just about.

Carol, prepare one gram of
pralidoxime for IV administration

and another two milligrams
of atropine.

He's got a heart
like a diesel engine.

What caused the crash?

Well, he mumbled something
about water in the carburetor.

Parathion, Walt,
don't get it on you.

Get out, Walt!

Who's he talking about?

Some farmer who tried
to pull him out.

Get out! It'll k*ll you!
Get out!

Easy. Easy.

Linda, I want a portable chest
x-ray and a flat plate of the abdomen.

Better get him type and
cross-matched for six units of blood.

I think he's bleeding
into the chest.

We may have to do surgery.

How's that parathion victim?

Ah, he's all right.
How's the pilot?

Ah, he's a little shaken up
over the guy that helped him,

but he'll be okay.

Yep. Hold this for a minute.

Mr. Lompok, please.
You're holding up the line.

Will you please sign the form?

I'll make a suggestion.

I want it to stand up.

I don't want my bottle
of mouthwash to spill,

get all over
my pajamas and bathrobe.

I bought new pajamas.

Hey, thanks.

Is it bigger than a bread box?

What?

Your recent problem.

One thing I can't figure out
is how I can say one thing

and the person
I'm talking to hear another.

Well, in your case
it's not all that difficult.

[LAUGHING SARCASTICALLY]

Hell, I'm just not gonna let it get to me,
that's all.

There you are, Mr. Lompok.

If you'll report to the clinic tomorrow
morning, they'll change that dressing,

and in a week you'll never
know you had an infection.

But I brought my
shaving kit and everything.

Don't you think I'd better
stay a couple of days?

Well, there's no need to.

I'd rather stay and make
sure I'm gonna be okay.

But I am sure.

That's all right for you to say,

but I know how I felt.

I thought my head
was gonna blow off.

I'd rather stay

and be absolutely sure
that you did the right thing.

I don't mind staying in a
room with somebody else

so long as he ain't too
sick and too messy. Okay?

I see.

Mr. Lompok, suppose we hold
a staff consultation

on whether you should
be hospitalized or not?

Would you like that?

Yeah. Sure.

Just a moment.

Dix, I'm in Treatment 3.

Would you ask Dr. Early
or Dr. Morton,

or both of them to step in
here if they're free, please?

Thank you.

They will be just a minute.

Hey, two doctors, huh?

Doctors, this is Mr. Lompok.

Mr. Lompok.
I just treated Mr. Lompok

for a condition that I'd like
to have him describe to you

to see if you agree with
my diagnosis and treatment.

Mr. Lompok thinks
he should be hospitalized.

I want to see if you agree.
Go ahead, Mr. Lompok.

Well, like I told the doctor,
Doctor and Doctor,

I always sleep on my left side,
rain or shine, day or night.

And another thing,
next to my bed,

the little light has to be on

or else there ain't no
shuteye for me.

Well, like I say, last night
I go to bed as per usual.

And what do you know,
this little moth which has got into my room

starts flitting
and flatting around the bulb

and the lampshade,
and the pillow

and my head
till I'm starting to go buggo.

So, I decide to use my brain.

I go to my bureau drawer and get
one of them... What do you call it?

The big name...

Paradichlorobenzene.

Yeah, so I balance this...

Para-whatcha-call-it on my right
ear and lay me down to sleep.

Well, you got to believe it.

No more flitting and flatting,
around me anyway.

But this morning,
have I got an earache.

I thought my head
was gonna blow off.

And I still ain't sure
it ain't gonna.

Well, what happened
to the paradichlorobenzene?

That's the funny thing.

This morning it was gone,
disappeared.

Diminution by evaporation
from body heat.

Yeah.

And slipped into his ear.

Well, I can certainly understand
why he's got a problem.

Well, I irrigated and
prescribed a local antibiotic.

Do you agree?

Mr. Lompok, in my opinion,
you have received

a correct diagnosis
and treatment.

I not only think you received a
correct diagnosis and treatment,

I think you received a brilliant
diagnosis and treatment.

Then you don't think I ought
to stay a couple of days?

No. No.

Are you sure? Mmm-hmm.

There you are, Mr. Lompok.
It's unanimous.

Now, don't forget to report
to the clinic tomorrow morning

and have that dressing changed.

And, Mr. Lompok,
please try to remember,

the next time
a moth bothers you,

don't put any mothballs
in your ear.

I bought new pajamas.

Go ahead and call her.

Call who?

Barbara. Your problem of the week,
remember?

[sums]

Oh, man.

I don't know.

And I can't understand is how she
could have possibly heard something

I didn't even say.

Maybe it was a bad connection.

I wasn't talking to her
on the phone.

It wasn't on the phone that I was
talking to her, it was at a movie.

Went to a movie last night.

She said...

Well, I mean...

She just said that...

I don't know. I mean...

Look, I said that...

I mean, I didn't say anything.

Look, it's just too ridiculous
to talk about.

I don't even want
to talk about it.

You know, man,
what I can't understand...

[ALARM SOUNDING]

Squad 51, man unconscious.

Observation Park, 50 yards inside,
Green Street entrance.


Observation Park, 50 yards inside,
Green Street entrance.


Time out, 1310.

STANLEY: Squad 51,


What's wrong with him?
Does anybody know him?

You know him?
What's wrong with him?

"A host of golden daffodils
A host of golden daffodils."

I think she's a little drunk.

Yeah.

Pulse is 130.

BP is 150 over 75.



It's got to be more than wine.

Yeah.

I'll go see
if she knows anything

if I can talk to her. Okay.

Hi. Was your boyfriend
having anything with his wine?

Pills or capsules or anything?

"I wandered lonely as a cloud
When all at once I saw a crowd."

Hey, look at me. Look at me.

Your boyfriend is in trouble,
do you understand?

I mean, he needs your help.
Do you understand?

"When all at once I saw a crowd."

Now, folks, I'm gonna have
to ask you all to move back

and give these men some little bit
of room to work, if you don't mind.

Please, everybody, back.

Thank you.

JOHNNY: His eyes are dilated and
they don't respond at all to light. See?

Rampart, this is Squad 51.

Still no conversion, 14.


Give two amps sodium bicarb.
And give one amp epinephrine.

Send a 15 second strip.
Go ahead, 51.

JOHNNY: Rampart, we have
a 20-year-old male.


He's unconscious.
He's been drinking some wine.


There's no sign of narcotics.

His heart is in sinus rhythm,
pulse is 130.


BP is 150 over 75,
respiration is 16.

The pupils are dilated
and do not respond to light.

The mucus membranes
are very dry.

Recheck pupils,
and what is condition of skin?

Stand by, Rampart.

"When all at once I saw a
crowd A host of golden daffodils."

"A host of golden daffodils"
That's very pretty.

Yes, it's so beautiful,
isn't it?

Yeah.

It really is,

but I'd like you to think about
something else for a minute if you could.

Who are you?

My name's Roy.

Roy. That's beautiful.

What's your name?

Pam.

Well, Pam, your boyfriend,
he seems to be out on something.

Do you know what it could be?

Just tripped out on poetry.

Is it, I mean, anything else?
Something in here?

Well, all that nature gives us.

The red grape
and the white turnip,

little green onions and
rosy-cheeked tomatoes, and beets

and beautiful daffodil bulbs.

Daffodil bulbs?

Yes, a host of golden daffodils.

Daffodils.

Rampart, the pupils
do not respond to light.

Also the skin
is very hot and dry.

Also seems to be
a little flushed.


Has he ingested anything,
liquid or food, other than wine?

Anything?

No, just vegetables.

Daffodil. Daffodil bulbs.

Rampart, and daffodil bulbs.





I think why don't we
sit up here and then you...

I like you, Roy.

Thank you. I like you, too.

You'll have to bleed this.

Then go ahead and inject it.

Roy, this is the other
daffodil eater?

Well, she doesn't remember
whether she had any or not.

It's marginal, but I'd say she's
had an overdose of atropine, too.

His vitals are improving.

Dix, when he comes around,
be sure to fill him in, huh?

Daffodils are from
the amaryllis family,

the bulbs are loaded with belladonna,
natural atropine.

Daffodils just dancing...

We better pump her out, too.

Here you go. In this chair.

We got to go now,
but you and your friend

are going to be
well taken care of.

You take care, too, Roy.

I will.

[RADIO BEEPING]

DISPATCHER ON RADIO:
Squad 51, are you available?


Squad 51. Available.

Squad 51, possible injury
at the horse ranch.


6000, Route 5,
near the county line. Time out, 1410.


Squad 51.10-4.

We had a report of an
accident at this address.

Yeah, give me a minute,
will you?

Is someone hurt over in
that house over there? No...

Come on, Doug, get him!

That old fool called about me.

Drive him this way!

Drive him on over here!

Then in other words,
it's a false alarm.

That horse threw me.

But you're all right now?

Sure, I'm all right.

Well, come on! Hold him.

You got him!
Now bring him on over here!

He shouldn't have called you.
Thanks for coming, anyhow.

Whoa!

I'm all right! I'm all right.

I'm all right, I tell you!

Look, why don't you
let us check you out?

There's nothing wrong.

I just hit my head, that's all.

JOHNNY: Are you sure
there's nothing wrong?

Hit a rock with his head,
that's all. He was out cold.

Long enough to scare me into calling
you two fellows and an ambulance, too.

How long was he unconscious?
Just a few seconds.

It was more like 10 minutes.

Now, look, 10 minutes.

Now, that would indicate
that there was... Indicate what?

You got a little nosebleed
there. So what's a nosebleed?

Another indication that it
might be a serious injury.

Now, look.

You know, I'd think twice
before you get back on that horse.

Now, look. Either you
run a horse or he runs you.

There ain't a horse been built that could
throw Bill Stagg and make him like it.

Now I'm going to
get back on this one,

and I'm going to
make him like it

or I'm going to drive his legs
in the ground.

Because that's how I'm built.

Doug, take up on that cinch.
I want it tight.

Well, what do you think?

Out that long, nosebleed.

Okay, let me have him.

Why don't we...

Why don't we stick around
for a few minutes

unless we get another call?

Yeah.

Hold on!

DOUG: You all right, Bill?

Don't put your spurs in him!

What's the matter?

JOHNNY: Looks like he's hurt.

DOUG: Pull him in!

Look out.

Hold him back!

[GRUNTS]

Rampart Base, this is Squad 51.

Rampart Base,
this is Squad 5-1. Come in.

Go ahead, 51.

I'll get it. I'll get it.

Rampart, we have a male
about 25 years old.

He's hit his head.
He's bleeding from the nose.

He's conscious now. He was
unconscious about five minutes earlier.

Any bruise to his nose,
face or frontal area?

Negative, Rampart.

Could be a skull fracture,
with intracranial bleeding.

Send vitals and examine ears.

10-4, Rampart.

BP is 120 over 75.

Ambulance coming up the road.

How's he doing? We're
still checking him out.

You known him long?

Couple of years.
Comes out to ride.

Rampart, Squad 51.

Go ahead, 51.

Rampart, our possible skull
fracture is bleeding through the nose.

He has fluid in the ears,
the respiration's about 16,

and the BP is 120 over 75
and the pulse is about 70.


TKO and transport.

10-4, Rampart.


IC. Continue CPR. Transport.

You know, it's my fault.

He always tried to do too much.

Well, he certainly looked like
he knew what he was doing.

Knew what he was doing?

He's the worst rider
I've seen in 30 years.

He comes out on weekends.
Says it relaxes him.

Can you believe it?

Mister, in my business
you can believe anything.

Well, when we transport, we're going
to have to keep his head elevated.

Better start doing it now.

Yeah, okay, here we go.

Mike, your skull fracture
is here.

Thank you.

WOMAN ON PA:
Dr. Davis, needed in Surgery.


Dr. Davis, needed in Surgery.

I got him. Thanks.

A little nosebleed
and passing out

for a couple of minutes,
so what?

Why drag me into a hospital?

I'd like to have a nickel for
every time I've been thrown.

I told those guys
I didn't need them.

You're just very lucky that they
waited around to bring you in, partner.

Squad 51. Available.

DISPATCHER ON RADIO: Squad 51,
respond with Engine 51. Traffic accident.


Injuries unknown.
Freeway 101, 6B off-ramp.


Freeway 101, 6B off-ramp.

Time out, 1525.

Squad 51.10-4.

WOMAN: Let's get this show
on the road. Are you all right?

Yes, I am, but that goon m*rder*d
and mutilated my beautiful car.

All right. Now, don't worry
about him. Are you okay?

Yes, I'm all right.

All right. We're gonna have to get
something to pop out this windshield,

so don't go away.

Wait a minute.

Don't you let that nut
who hit me leave.

Don't you forget it's a crime to
leave the scene of an accident.

Listen, he couldn't go
anywhere even if he wanted to.

Why don't we move over here?
I'm going to try to pop this door open.

Can you make it? Yeah.

Mine's okay. How's yours?

Somebody up there likes him.

Yeah, well,
it certainly isn't her.

Bring that trauma box, will you?

All right.

All right. Now I want you to
step back to the back of the car.

I'm going to knock
this glass out

and I don't want you
to get cut with any glass.

You Okay?

All right.

Come on,
why don't we get out of here? Yeah.

Can you move okay?

Yeah, I think so. All right.

Watch out. You okay?

Man, even in a nightmare
nobody moves into an off-ramp

from the middle lane. You!
Look what you did to my car!

I just had
all my fenders straightened.

Sure, sure. You probably
have to once a week.

Let me at him!

You already got me, remember?

All right. All right.

Hey, give me that crowbar,
will you?

It'll be self-defense.

You better not push your luck.

I'm going to have to check
out that cut you got there.

Oh. My God!

Oh, you're hurt.
You're bleeding.

Scalp wounds bleed pretty easy.

Why don't you sit down here,
and we'll take care of it?

You're not a bleeder, are you?

No. I hope not.

Okay.

Let's just lay this
in your lap, all right? Okay.

I've got a reunion at State
College tomorrow night.

And me, a cr*pple.

It won't be so bad.

Maybe you don't need
any stitches.

What year did you go to State?

I graduated four years ago.

I went to State. I graduated
the year before last. Fine Arts.

Really?

I was in architecture.

Want to hold that for me there?

I majored in music.

My term paper was "From Wolfgang to
Wolf man, Or What We Owe to Mozart."

I got their names for your report,
if you want.

Okay, thanks, Vince.

Want to hold still for me?

Just relax your arm. Just relax your arm,
all right.

I'm still not sure
which way I'm going to go.

Neutra or Frank Lloyd Wright.

Did you know there's a very close
relationship between architecture and music?

The BP's normal,
pulse is normal.

I'm going to go
copy down these names.

All right.

Hey. Where do you want
these piles dragged?

Well, I'm a member of
the Auto Club.

So am I.

Well, any Auto Club garage,
I guess.

Can we ride with you? Sure.

Here we are.

Thank you.

Thanks very much.

ROY: Pleasure.

It'd sure be a funny thing if they
wound up married, wouldn't it?

Don't say that.

What's the matter?

You know, I just figured out why
Barbara thinks I said what I didn't say.

You've never told me
what she thought you said.

That we'd get married.

Is that all?

Is that all?

I didn't even say anything.

Uh-huh.

I didn't. I didn't say anything.

We were at a movie last night.

It was one of those musicals

that has a wedding at the end,

you know, with the rice
and the old shoes

and the crying mothers and
the bridesmaids and everything.

And Barbara kind of
leaned over and said,

"Johnny, that's what I'd like
one of these days."

I was holding her hand and
I just kind of looked at her

and squeezed her hand
and nodded my head.

But I didn't say anything.

It was just to let her know
I heard what she said.

A judge would probably
hold you to that.

Why? I didn't say anything.

Oh, no. See, that's what
you call body language.

Roy, this is serious.

Yes, it is,
and I'd like to see how you handle it.

"And I'd like to see
how you handle it."

No doubt in my mind.
I'm all for weddings

as long as they're not mine.

But I like being married.

Sometimes. Thanks.

[PHONE RINGING] It's a great
convenience if you have kids.

Fellas.

L.A. County Fire Department.
Captain Stanley.

Yes, you certainly may.

It's Barbara.

Barbara Gage.
That has a nice ring to it.

Shut up.

[sums]

Barbara?

Listen, I'd like to...

Huh? Yup, right. Yeah.

[JOHNNY STAMMERING]

Listen, Barbara.
Barbara, listen to...

What?

Well, yeah. Sure, but...

[ALARM SOUNDING]

Listen, Barbara, I got to go.
Yeah, right. I got to run.

You almost lost your act.

From just a few pills?

Sometimes one's enough.

We're almost ready to transport.

How you doing, Dix? Johnny.

Hey, that was really
a nice job you guys did.

Well, thank you.

Oh, you know that weekend
cowboy you brought in?

[LAUGHING] Yeah.

Well, he's going to ride again.

If he rides again,
he's gonna be back again.

See you later. Right.

See you later.

[WHISTLING]

Ow!

Morning. Morning,
morning. How are you this morning?

I get the impression that your
Barbara problem has been solved.

You bet it has.

I saw her last night.
You know what she said to me?

She says, "Johnny."

"I think that we should think
about this marriage thing"

"for at least another
couple of months."

Man, I'm off the hook.

But she didn't actually say to
forget the whole idea, did she?

Well, she didn't actually say that,
but you know? It was words to that effect.

Uh-huh.

All right,
what do you mean "Uh-huh"?

Well, I just don't think you should
assume that she said something she didn't.

Trouble is you still have a
communication problem with her.

Man, you're right. I do!

You know, Roy, I don't think there's
gonna be a solution to this problem.

Well, sure there is.

What?

Go get married. Then you're
expected not to be able to communicate.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, yeah.

[SNORTS] Oh, no.
