Here.
Thank you.
Look, Gillian. I get that this is incredibly awkward.
But you have to believe me, Chris and I...
That kiss just happened.
I'm so sorry. We didn't mean to hurt you.
He didn't tell you about the kiss, did he?
My grandmother died this morning.
I'm sorry.
Was it unexpected?
You're a bitch, you know that?
Nine courses?
Yeah, it's their tasting menu. It's supposed to be amazing.
One of them is sea urchin. I bet you've never had sea urchin.
I accidentally drank the worm in a bottle of tequila once.
Oh, come on, it's Valentine's Day.
I just want to do something special.
What about Mike's party at Delaney's?
How is that different from every other night?
Okay, I didn't think you'd be such a big Valentine's Day person.
Why?
Two months ago you said, "Christmas is for suckers. " I thought I detected a theme.
Besides, I thought it'd be fun to make dinner at home tonight.
Are we just going to make dinner at home every night for the rest of our lives?
I only know how to make three things!
You want to order in then or...
No, I want to get out of the house!
Okay, okay! We'll go to the stupid restaurant. Calm down.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
Sorry.
8:00 sharp. Got it.
Paul? Hey.
Who's Paul?
Oh, Paul, no, go straight to Radiology and have them do a chest X-ray
and then meet me on the fifth floor. Okay, I'll see you in a bit.
Lauren's having trouble breathing. I got to go.
Oh, happy Valentine's Day.
Geez, Chlo, who died?
Mr. Fuller.
Hey, relax. It wasn't like it was your fault. You're not cancer.
Maybe I am! I mean, every patient I have seems to die.
I mean, even Sharra...
Okay. You know what? You need a break.
Oh, here, look, it's the new Us Weekly.
"Most romantic celebrity Valentine gestures ever. "
Huh? Cheer up.
Oh! Look what else I have.
Watermelon Bubblicious.
There we go. That's right.
Now, let's see who did wear it best, huh?
Hey, you, freshman dance. I need you to empty Mrs. Woods' bile drain.
She'll be there in a sec.
Excuse me. Do we suddenly not have patients?
Did the Rapture happen and I missed it?
Look, she's had a rough day, okay? She's taking a break. Her patient died.
Oh, my God, you're kidding me. Somebody died? Here?
What do we do? Has this ever happened before?
It's a hospital. People come here to die.
If you're uncomfortable with that, you should get a job somewhere else.
I hear Build-a-Bear is hiring.
That make you feel good? Being a dick to a sad nurse?
Careful, Nurse Toughie.
Hey, you don't have to talk to him like that, okay?
Why do you always have to be such a jerk all the time?
By the way, you're not even our boss, so step off.
Technically, you're right, I suppose. Excuse me.
Hello, Helen?
Hey, listen, I was just down in the ER. They're down five nurses.
Do you think we have the staffing up here to help them out?
Fantastic.
Hey, Nurse! I've got my stool sample!
Bring it to the window.
Nurse, there are CIA assassins after me.
We have to find a safe house!
They can help you at the window.
Don't feed the animals.
Oh.
We were told to report down here.
Great. Head back and find Grace. She's the nurse manager.
Hey! Uh-uh! You step out, you're back at the end of the line!
You people can kiss my ass!
You have a nice day, too, sir.
What just happened?
We have been reassigned.
Lauren, I know you feel like you can't breathe,
but you're going to have to try and calm yourself, okay?
We're going to take care of you.
She's been running a fever since last night.
It looks like she has pneumonia.
She's been aspirating her food.
I have her on a soft diet.
She sneaks Doritos at night.
I crave junk food when I'm depressed.
Dr. Harris, what do I need to do to get out of here?
Well, I'm afraid you're stuck here for a few days.
I'm going to put you on an IV antibiotic.
But, Mrs. Kempton, I also think it's time to insert a feeding tube.
Hey, you're going to get more calories,
and it's going to help keep you healthier for longer.
It's a simple procedure.
We can do it today. I'll speak with Dr. Briggs.
Fine.
Great.
I'll see if I can get the procedure room for this afternoon.
Hey, it's Sonia. Do you guys have time for a G-tube this afternoon?
Great, thanks.
Hey, have you seen Chris?
No. Why do you look crazy?
He broke up with Gillian. Actually, I did. For him. On accident.
I have to find him before...
Before what? You want to control this? You can't.
It's done. She knows.
Now she's going to go yell at Chris.
It is not your problem. He's all yours now.
You're right.
Yes, I am.
Stop smiling. It looks weird on you.
Hey, why didn't you ever tell me that guys pee with the door open?
Oh. Because if women knew that, nobody would ever move in together.
Yeah, well, thanks for having my back, friend.
What is wrong with you?
What is wrong with me is that two weeks ago I got evicted,
and now I'm living with this really great guy, and it's like game over.
We're going to get married, have a bunch of babies,
live on a cop and a nurse's salary for the rest of our lives.
Shopping at Costco, taking vacations at the shore,
and then finally, after 30 years, pay off the mortgage.
Hurray!
They got a great deal on a hot dog and soda at Costco.
It's like a buck fifty.
Where's Angel?
Hmm.
Angel, I heard they were sending you down.
Welcome back to the ER, baby!
New grad? Yes, ma'am.
We're short on preceptors. Angel, she's following you.
We've got some new protocols. At triage you'll take vitals
and assess the patient's acuity using a five-point scale.
Five is a heart attack, one is a splinter.
Fours and fives come right back, everyone else sits.
First rule of triage, don't let them die in the waiting room.
Does that happen?
If you screw up.
Where do you need us?
Everywhere.
Mr. Simms, your labs came back okay,
so you're cleared for the OR at 1:00 p. m.
Do you have any last-minute questions?
Yeah. You think I actually need this surgery?
Well, Mr. Simms, we've been over this.
You have an abdominal aortic aneurysm.
There's a 50% chance of rupture in the next year.
If that happens, you'll bleed to death in minutes.
So, yeah, I think you need the surgery.
But I was talking to this other doc, Briggs.
I think that's his name. Briggs?
And he said he had this tube thingy he could stick in the artery in my leg.
A stent. Yeah, that's it. A stent.
He said no surgery, just this stent, and I can walk out of here tomorrow.
A stent is a fairly new device.
No one's sure how long they last.
They can move around and cause blood clots.
The open surgery has a much better track record.
I'm kind of liking the sound of this stent deal.
Okay.
I'll talk it over with Dr. Briggs,
and we'll come up with the best recommendation.
Thanks, Doc. Okay.
Hey, Briggs, what do you think you're doing poaching my patient?
Excuse me? Herb Simms, abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Did you talk to him?
I thought he should know all of his options.
You want to discuss a case, you talk to me, not the patient.
This guy was pre-opped, on the schedule, consented for surgery.
Informed consent means you went over all the options with Mr. Simms.
And I think you skipped one.
Briggs, my way has a 90% success rate. Yours?
Don't be afraid of science, Chris.
Actually, this has nothing to do with science, it has to do with protocol.
There's a way that things are done around here.
Oh, really, Chris? Is there?
Is there really a way things are done around here?
Like, uh, sleeping with two of your co-workers at the same time?
Gillian. Gillian, wait.
I'm sorry you found out this way,
but, first of all, Veronica and I are not sleeping together.
I wouldn't do that to you.
And I wanted to talk to you this morning,
but I knew you were dealing with the death of Nana.
Don't you use my nana as an excuse!
You were using me, you son of a bitch.
And I gave you every opportunity to take me out of the game.
You know, it's probably a good thing I snaked your patient.
Because now, you have all the time in the world to deal with this mess.
I'm going to get a soda. You want anything?
Did you get the vanco?
Yep. One gram over 90 minutes.
And you drew Agatha's cultures?
You're really enjoying this, aren't you?
Do you need a shaving kit?
No, thanks, baby.
Girl, I'm not one to give advice,
but you've got to spruce it up.
You're looking more like a Hagatha than Agatha.
My boys like me this way.
Makes them feel dangerous. Right, baby?
Payne, Garcia, your six minutes with Miss Thing are up.
I need you out here.
I got something good for you, Chloe.
Special case for your first day.
We need to do an extraction.
Really, Grace? That's just mean.
Is that a bowling pin?
How...
Why would you put a bowling...
Well, it is Valentine's Day.
Good luck.
Seriously. How...
Huh.
Oh, you've been so wonderful, Veronica.
Thank you so much for taking such good care of me.
Oh, you're so welcome. We're going to miss you.
All right.
Okay, the flash is on, we're focusing. One, two, say "cheese. "
Cheese!
Wait, I'm taking a movie. Fran, why am I taking a movie?
Hey, did you want to get in?
Uh, yeah, yeah. I'll get in there.
Okay.
Okay, great. Done.
Thanks a lot. And thanks for everything.
Bye-bye.
Hi.
I'm sorry I broke up with your girlfriend for you.
It's okay.
Is it? I really didn't mean to hurt anybody's feelings.
I know. It's awful.
Don't beat yourself up about it.
It's my fault, I should have told her sooner.
But it's over.
Really? Of course, really.
What are you doing tonight?
Oh, they're having this thing at Delaney's. Everybody was going to go.
You remember that little Italian place you told me about?
The one with the little white lights and giant meatballs?
Miselli's. Yeah.
I want to take you there. Tonight.
But tonight is... I know.
You can wear a pretty dress.
I'm going to wear a suit.
Yeah, that sounds nice.
I'll pick you up at 8:00.
At my parents' house? How about I meet you there?
Okay, it's a date.
It's a date.
Got it.
You did not. Mmm-hmm.
He was scheduled for surgery.
Yeah.
Foreign bodies that big never come out.
I see what you're saying, but I just asked him to relax,
we did some visualization, and he just loosened right up.
Oh, my God. You're the Butt Whisperer.
She is. She's the Butt Whisperer.
Maybe I should have my own show.
Okay, you two, we need your help in triage.
Get your asses in the cage.
The cage?
Behind the bulletproof glass.
What's this?
This guy took pictures of all the metro stations in Paris.
I saw it and I thought of you.
Oh, you didn't have to do that.
Yes, I did. And it's not enough.
I wanted to say thank you for being there today.
I don't know what I would have done.
Anyway, um,
it's been really hard, and my mom and I haven't always gotten along.
But things have been a lot better,
and I think that's because of you. So, thank you.
You're welcome. And happy Valentine's Day.
Oh, yeah. What are you doing?
Spending the night in the stairwell, I guess.
I don't want my mom to be alone.
Oh. You can sleep in the crash room.
It's bunk beds, but it's private. I'll let everybody know.
Great. Thank you.
Sure.
Is that the son? You didn't tell me he was cute.
You think he's cute?
Didn't notice.
Hey, where are you going?
Klowden let me go early. I have a date.
With?
Yep. Oh, my God.
I know.
Don't wear the purple dress.
No.
Okay.
Oh.
Uh...
Honey, if you want a drink, just say so.
You don't have to go banging all around, looking for your stash.
My what? What are you even...
I'm looking for that dress that I wore to Colleen's wedding.
I took that to the dry cleaners.
You what?
Why is it at the dry cleaners? Why do you touch my things?
It had a little gook on the butt.
How did that get on there, anyway?
Mom! What?
Why do you need it tonight?
I've got plans.
Are you going to Mike's thing at Delaney's?
No. Well, what then?
Well, if you must know, which clearly you do, I have a date.
Date?
With Chris.
The doctor. From Iraq.
Look, I am really happy about this.
It's like our first real date, and it's Valentine's Day,
and I just really want to feel pretty for a change,
and I need that dress. So can you please, please, please help me out here?
It's at Bright Spot Cleaners. I'll find the ticket.
Honey, have a good time.
And for God's sake, wear some hose. Your legs are like paste.
I'm gonna be late.
Hey, Chris. It's me. I'm just running a little behind here.
Got to make one quick stop on the way, but I am...
I'm really excited to see you. Bye.
I understand you're not feeling well,
but how long have you had chest pain?
About two years.
What made you come in today?
I had the day off.
Do you have a urine sample, sir?
Yeah, it's right here. What's this for, anyway?
I have to do a tox screen.
What? No. No, no, no. Nobody said anything about a tox screen.
Sir, you're on parole. I have to do a tox screen.
No, seriously, just don't worry about it.
I have to have this analyzed.
No, no, forget it. Give it back!
Oh, my God, he drank his pee! He just drank his pee!
Next!
I know what you're thinking!
What the hell?
I know what you're thinking. Do not mess with me! I know what you're thinking.
Don't mess with me, man. I'll take you apart. You're small.
Why isn't someone doing something?
Where's the security guard?
Must've gone to lunch or something.
Somebody call security!
Oh, crap. Takes them five or 10 minutes, usually.
Just hang tight. I'll go get an order for Haldol.
Ten minutes? That guy's going to be dead in 10 minutes!
Security to triage! Now!
We have to do something. Give me a stick!
What?
Chloe!
Chloe, no!
I need security right now!
Triage, code gray. Security, code gray.
You, too!
Why are you all after me? I didn't do nothing!
Why are you people after me?
He's over there. Get him!
Stay back. Coming through! Put it down!
I know you're all in on it!
Chloe? Chloe, you okay?
Get off of me! I won't let you take me alive!
It's okay. You're going to be okay.
We're going to take good care of you.
I need a gurney!
The chair leg collapsed his lung. Let's call RT.
We need to re-expand. I'm in.
Bag him and prep a chest tube.
How fast? Twenty a minute.
Thirty-six French?
Perfect.
BP's 80 over 50.
Copy that. I've got two units going on the rapid infuser.
Follow up with FFP and platelets. Ten blade.
Need a vent? Just keep bagging for now.
Got it.
Everybody ready? Curved Kelly.
THORA-SEAL is ready.
Systolic's down to 60.
Transfusing as fast as I can here.
Oh! Just keep pressure on it.
Five hundred ccs out the chest.
He needs the OR.
I doubt he'll make it up there.
Guys, pressure's not working. We need more blood.
Get a Foley in the hole.
What? You want a urine catheter?
Stick it in the wound. It puts pressure on the inside.
Take over the infuser.
I haven't been oriented on it.
Okay, then listen to me, pick up the Foley and test the balloon.
Balloon is good. So, go for it.
How far? Just enough to get the job done.
Twenty ccs in.
Bleeding stopped.
Nice work.
Pressure's better. Ninety systolic.
Let's get him up. Thoracic's ready in OR 2.
Is he going to make it?
He made it out those doors alive.
Down here, that's a win.
Is that where the feeding tube is going to go?
Yeah, right there.
Three times a day you'll get your high calorie supplement.
And you won't have to worry about choking.
Or tasting. Does the tube come out?
No.
You just clamp the end so your stomach juices don't squirt out.
My stomach juices don't come out?
I changed my mind. I don't want this. No, thank you.
Hey, hey, let's calm down.
Hey, get our hand off my stomach. Get away from me!
I said I don't want this!
Can we just get a minute?
Yeah, take a minute.
Lauren.
Lauren, you have to do this.
This is happening so fast. I thought I had more time.
You do.
Everything is going to shut down.
I'll be trapped in my body, unable to move or speak.
And I'll be all alone.
And it's starting, Sonia. It's starting now.
I'm scared. I'm so scared.
Lauren, I am so sorry.
And I know it's scary, but I can tell you two things.
Okay, one, this feeding tube will help you stay healthy.
I know.
And two, I will be there for you.
I promise.
Can I hold you to that?
Yes.
We totally saved that guy's life in, like, five minutes.
I'm, like, flying off adrenaline right now.
Oh, yeah, we are. Come on, party's already started.
You know, maybe some tequila would even you out.
Yeah. Totally. We're going to tear it up.
Yeah. Ew.
ER fashion tip, peroxide will totally get out the blood.
You know, I think I'm done with the flowers.
We're closing.
Okay, I just need the bathroom key.
Sure, so I'll give you that, then you can go in there and do some drugs,
or you can steal the toilet paper like everybody else.
Restroom's for customers only.
I'll have a maple bar.
Good choice.
Oh, $5 minimum for cards.
Or you could buy a dozen for $10.25.
Just charge me $5 for the maple bar and give me the bathroom key.
Fine, whatever.
Please.
I don't think this is such a good idea.
I mean, it's not like it's even going to have time to work.
My legs look like paste. I just want to look pretty. Can you please be supportive?
All right, fine. Okay, here's what you do.
Hold the can six inches away from your leg.
Mist, do not spray it in a straight line.
Do not go over the same area more than once.
And don't touch anything until it's dry.
Cold. Very cold.
Oh, suck it up. You were in Iraq.
Hey, is Chris getting any action tonight?
No. Not tonight.
Probably not tonight.
Slut.
Where are you guys going?
Oh, to this place I read about in the city, if Nick ever gets here.
Well, have fun, okay?
Nick's a good guy.
I know he's a good guy.
Good.
Anything else?
No. I've got to go. I've still got to figure out this hair situation.
Gotcha. Okay.
Hey! How the hell you get that damn safe open, bitch?
It's in the desk. The combination's in the desk.
Let me take a look. I'm a nurse.
I'm sorry about the maple bar.
It's okay. It's okay.
Hey, what are you having?
Three shots of tequila.
Ooh!
Make it four.
Hey, what are you doing here? Where's Detective Appealing?
Late.
This place is packed.
I mean, brilliant to have a singles night on Valentine's Day.
I like it.
Figured I couldn't be the only one without a date.
Hit me again.
Ooh!
All right. On the house. Have fun.
I prefer an aged cognac.
Drink it.
If I do, can I leave?
Nope.
What are you doing?
Flirting.
Do you see this? This is the most amazing thing in the world.
This is the face of confidence.
Are you going to be like this from now on?
Hey. Your date's here.
Can we talk outside?
So where were you?
A guy ran on me today. Had to jump a freaking fence to catch him.
Yeah, well, we missed our reservation.
We'll have dinner someplace else.
It's Valentine's Day, Nick. Everywhere else is booked.
So there's no dinner and there's no date,
and tonight is just like every other night.
We'll have dinner here. It's no big deal.
We're together. Isn't that all that matters?
Sometimes other things do matter, Nick. Sometimes what I want matters.
Even if you think it's stupid or frivolous or pointless.
I'm allowed to want things. I'm allowed to want more.
Okay. What are we talking about right now? Because you just lost me.
I need some space.
Space? You need space because I was late for dinner?
Where are you going, Sonia?
Just don't wait up.
Don't worry. I won't.
Okay, the bleeding's stopped.
I'm dizzy.
You're okay.
Hang in there.
All right, that's enough of that. Now come with me, dear.
Is that your dad?
No! God! What are you doing?
He's nice. He teaches deaf kids.
Yeah, he doesn't teach deaf kids, Chloe. It's time to go home.
Why?
Because, that's how you get crabs, Chloe. Thank you, Angel.
Call me.
That's it, that's it.
You! All right.
Come, let's go now.
I don't like him.
Coming through!
Toot, toot.
Hi, I don't think we were ever actually formally introduced. I'm Doctor...
Yeah, I know who you are.
And you saw me get dumped today,
so I think we're beyond formalities.
Call me Gillian.
Okay.
Gillian, you can do a lot better than that slasher.
That's funny.
So you're the guy that can deploy an expandable heart valve percutaneously, right?
Yeah, I'm the guy.
You hungry?
Yeah, I could eat.
You wanna go grab a steak?
I'll tell you all about doing an epicardial ablation to cure Wolff-Parkinson-White.
You're on.
We need a phone. You're going to be okay.
I'll come right back.
No, no, no, no.
Hey!
Who the hell are you?
I said, who the hell are you?
I was in the bathroom.
Give me that.
Did you fix the leg?
I'm a nurse.
You're going to help me find the combination to the safe. Go.
Okay. Go!
Hey.
What are you doing here? Is everything okay?
Oh, yeah, everything's fine.
Okay.
Nice dress.
Why did you give me that book?
I don't know.
I guess I think you should go to Paris.
There's a whole world out there.
You deserve to see it.
Why are you being so nice to me?
Are you going to make me say it?
It's weird to be hitting on you
with everything that's going on,
but I think you're great.
Where is she?
What? Veronica. Is she here?
No. I haven't seen Veronica in a week.
What are you even doing here, man?
We had plans.
Tonight?
Yeah. Tonight.
She didn't show.
It's not like that.
No? What's it like, then?
I'll talk to you later, man.
Right. I'll see you.
Hey! Hey, you! Can I get a drink or what?
Yeah, sure. No problem.
Come on, where the hell is this thing at?
It's here, it's here. It's got to be here.
Got it, got it. It's taped to the back of the stapler.
Open it. Open it!
Thirty-five.
Right or left?
How the hell should I know?
It's usually right first, and then left.
At least that's how our lockers were in high school.
Twelve.
You go to school around here? I grew up in Weehawken.
Zero.
I didn't catch your name, by the way.
I'm Veronica.
Fifty.
Listen.
Deanna, that clerk out there, she's going to be okay.
This doesn't have to get any worse.
You didn't kill anybody.
You can just take the money and leave us here and we won't say anything.
This can all be over.
I promise.
Ninety.
Please, let me go check on her. Please. She needs me.
Go.
Deanna? Deanna!
What's going on here?
She's lost a lot of blood. We need to call the paramedics.
Is she dead? No. She's still got a pulse.
She ain't moving, she ain't breathing. Open your eyes!
She's in shock. She's unconscious. That's all.
She looks dead. She's dead.
She's okay. Just take the money and go.
Don't lie to me. Everything's going to be okay.
Stop lying to me!
Wake up. Please, wake up.
Damn it.
911. What is your emergency?
Dispatch, I have a double run.
Victim number one, female, large caliber gunshot wound to the femoral artery
and flank at approximately 20:10.
Exsanguinated over four liters of blood, no signs of life.
Victim number two, male, multiple gunshot wounds to the torso at approximately
21:15.
No spontaneous respirations, no palpable pulse.
Requesting evac of both casualties immediately.
Okay, ma'am, stay with me. I'm sending paramedics...
