Chicago Med/Season 2


 * Seasons: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 |5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | Main

Chicago Med (2015-) is an American television series.

Soul Care [2.1]

 * Dr. Daniel Charles: So, Dr. Reese, the reason I'm here... uh, aside from the coffee of course, is that Med has a residency opening for you.
 * Sarah Reese: I'll take it.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: On my service.
 * Sarah Reese: Psychiatry?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Enough foam. Enough foam.
 * Sarah Reese: Okay. Um... Dr. Charles, thank you, but I've never considered psychiatry. I don't think I'm equipped.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I think you have all the tools. You're a problem solver. You pay attention. And look at how beautiful you're making my coffee despite all my meddling.
 * Sarah Reese: But... I don't know how to talk to people.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It's actually more about listening than talking.
 * Sarah Reese: [handing him a coffee cup] Grande quad three-quarters-caf nonfat, no whip mocha.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I'll tell you what. How about you come and spend the day with me, and then see what you think.


 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You know who the most unhappy people in the world are?
 * Sarah Reese: Hmm?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Fifteen year old girls.
 * Sarah Reese: I remember.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Mom said Emmie had hundreds of friends. Hyperbole?
 * Sarah Reese: Maybe not. [showing him her phone] She could have hundreds of friends.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Oh, like that.
 * Sarah Reese: Girls her age share everything. They judge everything. Maybe Emmie was shamed, and that led to a suicide attempt?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Let me know what you find.


 * Sharon Goodwin: HR informed me that you still haven't supplied them with current malpractice insurance.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Well, I'm trying to find a carrier that'll write me a policy.
 * Sharon Goodwin: I'm guessing that's because of the lawsuit.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Doesn't make sense. The suit was dropped.
 * Sharon Goodwin: But to an insurance company, you still look like a bad risk. Attending physicians must provide their own malpractice insurance. Now, the hospital could give you a grace period of two weeks, but after that...
 * Dr. Will Halstead: I understand.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Look, I know you and I have had our ups and downs, but I don't want to lose you. So I'll make a few calls.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Thank you.
 * Sharon Goodwin: You may not want to thank me. I guarantee, your insurance will not come cheap.


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: And Emmie does have hundreds of friends. 623 to be exact. She's on a lot of social media platforms.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: 623 friends? Yikes. Who do you invite to the birthday party?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Mm-hmm. She isn't always very nice to the other girls.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Not very nice?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: She wasn't shamed. She's the shamer.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Interesting. Well, so what do you think?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Maybe... Emmie realized she really hurt someone and she felt guilty?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Guilty enough to kill herself?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Hmm. I don't know.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You know what? We got to get Emmie to open up. Next time mom takes a break, jump in there, give it another shot.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Uh, Dr. Charles, wait. Where are you going?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I just thought Emmie might be more comfortable talking to a woman, and somebody her own age.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But I don't know what to say, what to ask.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I think that once you get in there, you'll discover that you do.

Win Loss [2.2]

 * Dr. Will Halstead: The roommate search is not going well.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Well, you're trolling the Internet. What'd you expect?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: It's the hospital community page. I don't know, someone like... me.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Oh, you mean, like, a slightly anal, overly stubborn, rule breaking control freak? Good luck.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Really? When I'm already down?


 * Dr. Nina Shore: Here, look at this. Come on, it'll make you feel better.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [looks into microscope] What is it?
 * Dr. Nina Shore: Molluscum contagiosum. It's a type of pox virus. It's a nasty one, actually. Even so, stunning, right? Like 10 pounds of raspberry rock candy pressed into a 5-pound bag.


 * April Sexton: [notices Dr. Reese looking at her] What are you thinking?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Anxiety is a powerful emotion. Would you say that you feel more nervous about the situation or fearful of the future?
 * April Sexton: I-I don't know. Both, I guess.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: How have you been sleeping? Waking up at night? Earlier than you'd like? [April and Maggie look at each other and start giggling] What?
 * April Sexton: Oh, my God. You're shrinking me. [to Maggie, amused] Three weeks in psych, and she's Freud.


 * Dr. Will Halstead: [about his patient] 15 years, homeless, essentially blind. I mean, that's a crap hand. He should be pissed. Yet, he's happy as can be. Crazy I got this patient today.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: My experience, we get the patients we need.


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: You've created a monster, you know that? Turns out the English language is primarily comprised of buzzwords for borderline personality disorders. And now that I know them, I can't have a conversation without immediately seeing the psych in people, which is clearly an impulsive reaction, which, by the way, could also suggest a borderline personality disorder. I mean, I... I... I can't even not analyze myself. And now I'm using double negatives.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You're a first year psych resident. Compulsive diagnosing is par for the course. My first year, I was convinced that a friend of mine had dissociative identity disorder because suddenly he would only listen to Euro-Disco. Really. My advice? Think less, listen more. You'll be just fine.

Natural History [2.3]

 * Maggie Lockwood: I miss my brother, is that so horrible?
 * Denise Lockwood: He's gone!
 * Maggie Lockwood: Not completely! Not to me! I know I hurt you, but I'm not going to lose you. If I have to drag you kicking and screaming into the CT scanner, that's what's going to happen.


 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Do you think it's weird?
 * Maggie Lockwood: What, you hooking up with your late husband's best friend?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Not "hooking up".
 * Maggie Lockwood: Whatever you want to call it. You're asking me if it's weird.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Yeah.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Ehh, a little.
 * [Natalie sighs]
 * Maggie Lockwood: Don't stress out about it. I learned a long time ago that you have to do what makes you happy, even if some people think it's strange.


 * Dr. Daniel Charles: [Reese wheels him into the hospital in a wheelchair] Actually, totally my fault. Overdid it on the PT; had to do that last leg lift, and this is my reward [hearing Reese yawn] Am I boring you, Doctor?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Oh, no, sorry. I stayed up all night attacking the library, got all the way to Bowlby.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Bowlby? Great stuff.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Mm-hmm.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Made Charles Dickens the fascination of an entire generation of shrinks.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Bowlby said that Darwin had a panic disorder.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Oh, yes, ma'am. Charlie had a dark side. Wait 'till you get to Barloon and Noyes.


 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Dr. Charles, Dr. Reese. Thanks for coming down.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: What's up, Ethan? What do you got?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Amanda Kendrick-Dobbs. Seven months pregnant, gravid belly, history of fetal movement and Braxton Hicks contractions; all signs of a normal pregnancy.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: So what's the issue?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: [handing over a tablet] There's no baby.


 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Rapid strep and mono were negative, LP normal. I'm afraid it's something exotic, but we won't have the cultures back for another couple of days. And now with the bronchospasm...
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Yeah, it could be almost anything.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Exactly. I gotta confess, I am at a complete loss.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [looking at some paperwork] Oh. Well, whenever I find myself in the weeds, I go back to something one of my clinical attendings used to say: the answer is always in the history.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: That's your pearl of wisdom? We can't get a history. We're lost in a maze.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Then retrace your steps. Every decision you made, each path you took or didn't take. Examine it all.

Brother's Keeper [2.4]

 * Dr. Will Halstead: So, how you two doing?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: What?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: You and Jeff.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: What are you talking about?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Natalie, everyone knows. It's good. It's... you know, you seem a lot happier lately. It's nice.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Okay, but when you say everybody, wh...
 * Dr. Will Halstead: ED staff, ambulance drivers, EMTs.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Huh.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: You know, the crazy guy out front who thinks he's Jesus.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Okay, so about the same people who know about you and Nina.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Wait, seriously?


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: You were right. There is something going on with Danny.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Oh. Tell me.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: He told me he's addicted to heroin. Uh, he started going through withdrawal, he's stable now, on methadone and Ativan, and I... I know detox is a long road, but maybe we can help.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Could work. Let's see what we got.


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [after talking to their patient and his mother] I don't know what happened. He's totally different.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, it's gonna be a little tense with mom in there, right?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But it's like a switch was flipped. He wouldn't even look me in the eye.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Something is a little off. What... how long 'till he's discharged?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, his obstruction's cleared, and now that we know it was caused by the heroin, there's no reason to keep him once his IV's done.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Let's ask Dr. Choi to order a lactic level and an iron panel.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Why would we want those?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Buy us a little time. We got to separate 'em, and see if we can find out what's what.


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [looking at a patient's x-ray] Straight edges, opaque. It looks man-made, like there was something under Danny on the table.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: No, this is definitely inside of him. I could be wrong, but I think this might be a tracking device.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: A what?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: A transponder. Emits a homing signal. Would explain how that woman found him.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: You mean his mom?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah, is she, though? I mean, think about it; the guarded behavior, heroin abuse.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Wait, you think he's a drug mule?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Resistance to examination by male doctors suggesting a history of abuse by other men. I've seen this before. I think that Danny might be a victim of sex trafficking.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Sex trafficking? So that woman...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Is his pimp.


 * Dr. Sarah Reese: We can't just let her take him.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: He is not a minor, so we have no right to intercede unless he explicitly asks us to.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But he wanted me to find the chip. He wanted me to know.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, what did he say? What exactly did he say?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: He didn't... he didn't say anything, but he was...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: See, Sarah, it's not enough. Crazy as it sounds, we need to know that he's psychologically ready to be extricated. We do this the wrong way, we call the police, could be very, very bad for him. It's why we need to hear it from is own lips. Trust me.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Then I need to talk to him.

Alternative Medicine [2.6]

 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Danny said he'd get back in touch.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: When he does, you should refer him to the psych clinic.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, he won't go. He's afraid to come into the hospital or any clinic. He's afraid the traffickers will find out and he only wants to see me outside.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Bad idea.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, Dr. Charles, he's suicidal.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: So, let me get this straight. You are gonna give him psychotherapy in the parking lot once a week? Dr. Reese, this patient - any patient - has got to be treated in the proper clinical setting.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: He feels a connection to me.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Let me ask you something. You feel like you're the only one who can help him? Only one who understands him?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: No. No, it's just...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Just what?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I care about him.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Cut it off. You're too involved.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But I... I... I don't understand.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: What happens if you don't get the rosy outcome you're looking for?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I think I can deal with that.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: No. Crucial part of my job is protecting my staff. You are headed down a dangerous path. Step away. We clear?
 * [Reese slowly, but sadly, nods]
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Good.


 * Erin Lindsay: So this hypothetical patient... female?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Male, hypothetically.
 * Erin Lindsay: Okay. And you say he was implanted with a tracking device?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Yes.
 * Erin Lindsay: Innovative. We... we usually see human trafficking victims who've been branded or tattooed, but not this. How old is he?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [unsure what to say] Um...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: We don't have consent to get any more specific.
 * Erin Lindsay: Sure. [turning to Reese] You want to help this boy get out of the life. It's complicated. Traffickers control their victims in a number of ways; psychologically through fear and emotional abuse, and physically. Drugs. Torture. He's up against a lot. I think it'll help him open up if he feels like he can trust you.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Pretty sure he already does.
 * Erin Lindsay: Great. Once he tells you that he's ready to involve us, just call me, and we'll start looking at ways to extricate him, but in the meantime, you have to be really careful. His fears are legitimate. If these traffickers find out that he's trying to get out, that he could potentially become a witness against them, they'll kill him.

Inherent Bias [2.7]

 * Sharon Goodwin: What is it about first loves that stick with you? It's just like the last 40 years never happened. One day this man walked out of my life, and the next, he's being wheeled in on a gurney.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Nina Shore: Hey. I thought you were picking up an extra shift.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Yeah, I was hoping to, but Goodwin put a moratorium on overtime. Oh, I do not wanna go home right now and face Mandelbrot.
 * Dr. Nina Shore: What? Is your new roomie still leaving toenail clippings on the couch?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Worse. Now he's doing jumping jacks in the nude.
 * Dr. Nina Shore: Okay, you really need a new roommate.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: I can't make rent without him.
 * Dr. Nina Shore: Well, hey, if worst comes to worst, I got plenty of beds down in the morgue.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [laughs] Yeah. Yeah, I bet you do. I might take you up on that.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Erin Lindsay: Protective custody?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Mm-hmm.
 * Erin Lindsay: We don't have a suspect, much less an open investigation. We legally can't protect Danny unless he gives us information about the people who held him captive.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: So talk to him.
 * Erin Lindsay: I did. I tried. I went to the shelter, and he wouldn't talk to me.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, now he's gonna have to sleep on the street tonight. Are you okay with that?
 * Erin Lindsay: No, of course not.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: So... can we talk to him together? 'Cause maybe he'll open up with me there.
 * Erin Lindsay: Let's give it a shot.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [after trying to talk to Danny] He's not ready.
 * Erin Lindsay: He's obviously terrified. And I wish that I could help, but my hands are tied here. Let me know if he changes his mind.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Okay.
 * Erin Lindsay: Good luck.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: I knew it wouldn't help and so did you. I figured we had safety in numbers.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I know. But if we'd had an alternative plan to save his life, yeah, I would've held firm with you. But we didn't. So we tried the Hail Mary. And Goodwin knows that we did everything we could for her.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: For her? Goodwin's not our patient, Reggie is. Right now, he's suffering. Best thing we could've done for him is to let him die with dignity.

Free Will [2.8]

 * Ian Vance: I love my brother. I'd love to give him my kidney.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Well, what's stopping you?
 * Ian Vance: I'm HIV positive.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: [understanding] But giving him a kidney would be giving him HIV, as well.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: I'm guessing by his reaction that he doesn't know?
 * Ian Vance: Not a clue.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: May I ask why don't you tell him?
 * Ian Vance: Because Jim is... incredibly homophobic. He thinks homosexuality is... disgusting, deviant behavior.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Yeah, well, but right now he thinks you're willing to let him die.
 * Ian Vance: Well, right now... right now he hates me for what I'm doing, but if I tell him this... he'll hate me for who I am.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I understand, but just so you know, if you don't tell him soon, it may be too late.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Ms. Charles, what brings you to the ED today? Yellow fever? Plague?
 * Robyn Charles: Eh, just a plain old cough. Things have not been the same since the swine flu died down.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Well, don't worry. There'll be another epidemic one day.
 * Robyn Charles: Eh, it's what I keep telling myself. You know, gotta stay positive.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I never figured you for an optimist.
 * Robyn Charles: Are you kidding me? I still root for the White Sox.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Wow.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Robyn Charles: What did you tell Connor?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Come again?
 * Robyn Charles: Did you tell him to stay away from me?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: No.
 * Robyn Charles: You said something.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I might have ind...
 * Robyn Charles: [cutting him off] Who I date is not your concern.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You're absolutely right. 100%.
 * Robyn Charles: You are unbelievable.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I'm sorry. I was wrong. If I worry about you, I can't help it.
 * Robyn Charles: Okay, well, that's gonna need to stop.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Can't do it. I'm your dad. I know I haven't won any awards in that department...
 * Robyn Charles: This is not a referendum on you.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I'm sorry I wasn't there. I'm sorry I wasn't a father.
 * Robyn Charles: Okay, see? That. That right there. Why does it always go back to that? Does it ever occur to you that I have moved on?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I... I didn't.
 * Robyn Charles: Not only am I past it, but I really... I do not care. So you can feel as guilty as you want, but you being overinvolved in my life now is not gonna cut it.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Spoke to your patient, Mr. Wallace.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Let me guess, not a suicide risk.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Garden variety sociopath. He's an opportunist. Knows all the buzzwords. Not a sincere bone in his body.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Good enough for me. [to an attending nurse] Let's start discharge paperwork on Treatment 4.
 * [the nurse nods and leaves]
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Chalk one up for the good guys.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [having learned Danny, the boy she was trying to rescue from sex traffickers, died] It's my fault.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: No, that's not true.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Of course it is. I told him we could remove the chip. I encouraged him to run away.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You empowered him to make decisions. It's what good doctors do.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But they were the wrong decisions.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It was the wrong outcome.
 * 'Dr. Sarah Reese: And now he's dead. I mean, who knows? If... if I had told him to wait, maybe the police would have come and broken up the ring and he'd be free. I was careless with his life.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Dr. Reese, you're anything but careless. Sometimes the best advice, you know, it's just not enough. Dangerous thing about psychiatry, it can sometimes give those of us who practice it the illusion of control. But the human brain, it's... it is the most complex, mysterious object in the universe. That means that what we do, it... it just doesn't come with any guarantees.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I don't think that makes me feel any better.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I know. Never does.

Unchartered Territory [2.9]

 * Cyrus Hammad: You can't control ignorance, only how you react.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Jeff Clarke: Hey, don't let those ass-wipes get to you. Just trying to be tough guys.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: No, Jeff. It goes deeper. Not many families with the last name Choi where I grew up. Know the type all too well.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: You just get good news or bad news?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: My coma patient this morning, he mentioned a verse: Surah Al shura 40. "The recompense of an evil deed can only be an evil equal to it; but whoever pardons and makes reconciliation, their reward is due from God."
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: In the psych world, it's called complementarity. You know, kindness begets kindness. Hostility, hostility.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Yeah. An hour ago, those two hated each other, but then his father extends a hand.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Dr. Charles calls it "flipping the script".
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Don't know if I could've done it.

Graveyard Shift [2.11]

 * Dr. Daniel Charles: So, after reading the material I gave you, you told me that you suspected...
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: That I'm on the autism spectrum. That I have Asperger's.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Right. So, how'd you feel if I told you that I thought that your diagnosis could very well be correct?
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Relieved, actually. My whole life, I've never understood why people treated me the way they did. I felt there had to be something wrong with me.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Not wrong. I mean, it's jut different wiring. That's all.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Is there anything we can do to change that wiring?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, our wiring is pretty much our wiring, but there's a whole bevy of strategies out there. I mean, medications, social skills training, to help you recognize body language. There's also a new therapy called TMS, but I'd probably recommend you going the traditional routes first.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: TMS?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. It's so far FDA approved only for depression, but there is anecdotal evidence that it can benefit people with spectrum disorders. I only mention it because we have a machine here at the hospital.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I spoke to my mom today. Told her I was a psych resident.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Oh, just now you're telling her?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, yeah. I knew how she'd react. And I was right. She... laughed. She said I was the last person she could ever imagine being a psychiatrist.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Wow. Real vote of confidence there.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: So this was your idea?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Dr. Choi volunteers at the zoo.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Normally we wouldn't bring an animal in here, but we couldn't diagnose without a CT.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Well, that's fine, but I'm not a veterinarian.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: She needs a cardiothoracic surgeon.
 * Sharon Goodwin: You've done this procedure many times.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Oh, yeah, I have. On human beings.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Same plumbing, just bigger. Crack her chest and plug the hole.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Are we sure that we're all comfortable spending our time and the hospital's resources to save an animal?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Dr. Rhodes, zoos rent pandas from the Chinese government for a million dollars a year. Why? Because people love pandas. So if we save this one, it's a public relations coup for this hospital. One which will lead to much needed donations to save human lives. And... and there's an issue beyond that. I've learned that there are less than 2,000 pandas left in the world.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Connor, we should do whatever we can to keep her alive.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: So, you volunteer at the zoo, huh?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Yeah.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: How come?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: You'll laugh.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Just try me.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: [sighs] All right. A few hours ago I lost a kid who was shot. Another one. So much of my work...stabbings, shootings...i's dark, man. Worst of human nature. But animals...not to say they don't kill each other, but they don't do it out of malice. They're innocent. They're light.

Mirror Mirror [2.12]

 * Ariel Green: My mom keeps saying I'm doing this for attention, but... god, who likes seeing doctors?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Your leg okay?
 * Ariel Green: All of a sudden, my knee hurts.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Hm.
 * Ariel Green: This place freaks me out even worse than school.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: What freaks you out about school?
 * Ariel Green: Everything. There's so much drama. It makes me crazy anxious. Sometimes I hide, sometimes I get into fights.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: That's what happened today?
 * [Ariel glances at something, and Daniel notices she's looking at her mother]
 * Ariel Green: I looked up schizophrenia online. It says it can start in late adolescence.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Mm, not usually as early as fourteen, but... I mean, are you hearing or seeing things that other people aren't?
 * Ariel Green: No. But... sometimes, it's like... my feelings aren't my own. Like they're someone else's.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Hm.
 * Ariel Green: Do you think I'm crazy?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Uh, not really my favorite word, but no. No, I don't.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: [a patient has a gun up his rectum] He says he has no idea how the gun got up there.
 * Sharon Goodwin: All right, what are our options?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: It's not gonna be easy getting it out. It's just past his sphincter.
 * Dr. Jeff Clarke: Plus, the hammer's cocked. So if there's a live round in there...
 * Sharon Goodwin: Seriously?
 * Dr. Stanley Stohl: Could do some real damage... 22 single-shot derringer. That's a big kick for a little gun.
 * Sharon Goodwin: So we work up a plan to get him to the O.R. Page the surgeon on call.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Ms. Goodwin, I think it'd be safer to do it here. Jeff and I both have weapons experience. We sedate him, try to slide it out. If we can't make it, then we call in surgery.
 * Dr. Jeff Clarke: I'm in.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Should we call CPD?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Yes. We'll need enough body armor and gear to protect whoever's in there with him. And let's keep this area clear.
 * Dr. Stanley Stohl: And I'll keep the cameraman away from all this. It's unsafe, and frankly, it's distasteful.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Laura Green: What were you doing to my daughter?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I was trying to confirm a diagnosis. Um... I... I want neurology to run some tests, but based on this and Ariel's history, I think that she has a condition called mirror touch synesthesia.
 * Laura Green: What?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It's a condition that... that causes her to experience the physical sensations and emotions of the people that she's interacting with as her own. My left knee hurts, Ariel feels it in her right. I slap my right cheek, she feels like her left is being slapped. She's mirroring me.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Her stomach; she's responding to your ulcer, not imitating you. She's literally feeling your pain.
 * Laura Green: Whoever heard of such a thing?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It's a pretty recent discovery, the existence of these mirror neurons.
 * Laura Green: Is there a cure?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Not yet, but there are... coping strategies we can teach her to help her manage her condition.
 * Laura Green: [her cell phone buzzes]' Uh... I'm sorry, I... I have to get this. [answers the call as she leaves]'' Yeah?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I cannot believe this woman.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: How's that old saying go? You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it gaze at its own reflection.

 * Dr. Isidore Latham: I have recently been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder. Asperger's.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: [slightly confused] Okay.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: I'm not revealing this to elicit sympathy from you, or as a means to justify my behavior. I simply feel it might be beneficial for you to know.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I think it might be.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: I am unable to discern whether you're being sarcastic or not. That's part of the disorder. It also makes it difficult for me to improvise from my set routine. I confess, I... I'm uneasy about the surgery we are about to perform. Can I rely on you to help me through it?

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Laura Green: She can really feel the pain of everyone she sees?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Yes.
 * Laura Green: Oh, god. I can't imagine how hard this has been for her. I took her to every specialist. I... I did what the doctors told me to. I thought she was faking.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: There's no way you could have known.
 * Laura Green: I am hurting my own daughter. How am I supposed to protect her from this if I'm part of the problem?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: It won't be easy. But... she feels what she sees. If she sees a happy person, she feels happiness. And if she sees someone who's constantly anxious...

Theseus' Ship [2.13]

 * Dr. Natalie Manning: We are aware that your son was prescribed a new oral chemo, and that you have been withholding it.
 * Adam Moore: I'm not withholding them.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I understand that you're a single father and that this must be incredibly hard for you...
 * Adam Moore: It's not about me.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: But if you are willingly keeping your son off of his meds, then we...
 * Adam Moore: It's his decision.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Excuse me?
 * Adam Moore: Gabe's. He's been through four courses of chemo. The nausea, the pain, the the drugs to treat the pain, it was awful.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: That doesn't mean you can just stop trying.
 * Adam Moore: He begged me all through the last course. But I wouldn't stop it. And it didn't help at all. None of them helped. So this time, I let him decide.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Well, he can't decide. He is eight years old, okay? His brain is literally not developed enough to process this. Life and death and forever are concepts that he cannot fully understand yet.
 * Adam Moore: Gabe does understand.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I'm sorry, but we need to start your son on his new chemo.
 * Adam Moore: No. I won't authorize that.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Adam Moore: He's breathing so hard.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: He's septic. We need to give the antibiotics time.
 * Adam Moore: He'd scream out in his sleep when it first started, and get these pains. But he kept on fighting. I quit my job to take care of him.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Then help him keep fighting. Tell him that there's a chance this new chemo could work.
 * Adam Moore: Look at him. He's not fighting anymore. He's done. And I will not flog him against his wishes. My boy deserves better than that.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Will Halstead: You know, it used to be if a doctor told a patient to do something, they just did it.
 * Maggie Lockwood: You been binging on Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman again?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: No, I'm just saying things were different.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: [after "meeting" a patient's alternate personality] Obviously, she is profoundly disturbed, which we should have known when she first said "tulpa". Why are we treating her like she is sane when she isn't?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Wouldn't that be a little too easy, though? I mean, sure, we could, you know, slap a label on her, put her in some diagnostic box, pour some medicine on top; but sometimes it's a little more complicated than that.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: She had an argument with her made-up friend while her subconscious crashed the car. It seems pretty simple to me.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Grace is definitely a fractured personality. But it's all the more reason that we have a responsibility to dig deeper and figure out why.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Right. I'm sorry, Dr. Charles, but I like boxes. None of this makes any sense. It is all so subjective. I hate it. I mean, where's the science?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Dr. Reese, every medical discipline, psychiatry included, is as much art as it is science.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Well, I don't see the science or the art. You know, everybody was so surprised when I went into this; me, the lab geek. Well, they were right. I don't belong here.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: This was a total disaster.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I'm not so sure that's true. I mean, from Grace's perspective, this could be as close to a win as we can get.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: She just chose her tulpa over her husband; her tulpa that almost killed her.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I just saw her tulpa talk her off a ledge.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I have no idea what to think.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Like it or not, the line between psychological illness and a coping mechanism is a blurry one. I mean, just 'cause we don't give them names and voices doesn't mean we don't all have different sides. I mean, our personalities change based on... how much sleep we get, how hungry we are. Hell, intestinal bacteria could be the determining factor in our emotions. Look... I know you think of yourself as an analytical thinker and a scientist, and that you're wondering if you have a place in psychiatry right now. But I also see this other Sarah in there, and she's filled with intuition and compassion, humanity. And when you put 'em both together, like during Grace's panic attack today, then I see a sensational psychiatrist.

Cold Front [2.14]

 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: What happened?
 * Jason Wheeler: I-I-I don't know. She was alert and talking a few minutes ago.
 * Dr. Jeff Clarke: No pulse.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: All right, Clarke, intubator. April, miligram of epi.
 * April Sexton: On it.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Wheeler, get on her chest now. She's hemorrhaging.
 * Dr. Jeff Clarke: Abruption from the trauma?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: That might explain just a vaginal bleed, but not this. She's bleeding around her IV.
 * April Sexton: Dr. Rhodes.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: All right, likely an amniotic fluid embolism. Impact from the accident forced amniotic fluid into her bloodstream, disrupted her clotting factors. Trigger the MTP. We need to get this baby out now.
 * April Sexton: Page OB?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: No, there's no time. We've got about four minutes to deliver or we're gonna lose her and the baby.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: Because of emergency surgeries, and a pregnant mother's serious bleeding disorder, we have used almost all of our O-negative. We can either treat Benjamin or Josh, but not both.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Benjamin needs an angio emolization more urgently than Josh needs surgery.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: How can you say that? Josh isn't compensating for his blood loss as well. He's in worse shape.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: I understand you're trying to protect your patient, but you're being emotional.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: [insulted] Emotional? And what are you being?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Our recommendation needs to be based solely on clinical criteria. So I'm handing it over to the triage team.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Dr. Rhodes, your opinion?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I have to agree with Dr. Halstead that Benjamin needs angio embolization more urgently than Josh needs surgery.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Not the issue. We're here to decide who has the best chance of survival, so...
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Unfortunately, even if Benjamin gets the embolization, there's only a 15% chance that the bleeding in his pelvis will stop.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Exactly. Whereas with Dr. Manning's patient, as the pressure in his thighs builds, the bleeding will eventually slow. Worst case, Josh loses a leg, but there is no question he has the best chance of survival.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Dr. Choi, what are you doing?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Putting in an IO.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Can I speak with you?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Hang on one second. Almost...
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Now.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: [to April] I'm in. He's 95% TBSA. Calculate his fluid based on Parkland, and run everything through the warmer.
 * April Sexton: Copy.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: [stepping outside] I thought I told you to make him comfortable and move on.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Dr. Latham, standing by while a patient dies is not in my job description.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: He has full thickness burns over 90% of his body. There is no chance of recovery.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: He's awake, talking, lucid, not in any pain.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: As you well know, he's not in pain because his cutaneous nerves have been destroyed by the burn. Very soon, his organs will begin to shut down. He is going to die. And treating him will only take resources away from patients who have a chance of survival.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I envied you today. Making those decisions clinically, not letting your emotions interfere.
 * Dr. Isidore Latham: Dr. Rhodes, are you saying you envy my autism?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: A little bit, yeah.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Mr. Kellogg, I am so grateful that you're still alive, and that I get to treat you.
 * Jack Kellogg: I just want my meds.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah. It really doesn't work that way. You see, your behavior indicates a pretty profound personality disorder. Off the cuff, among other things, I'd say you're probably a malignant narcissist with over sadistic impulses.
 * Jack Kellogg: You've got no right to talk to me...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Shut your mouth.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Dr. Charles.
 * Jack Kellogg: Maybe I should just go.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: No, no, no. I'm so sorry, but I gotta put you on a seventy-two hour psychiatric hold; for your own good.
 * Jack Kellogg: What? Seventy-two hours?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You wanted my attention, and now you have it.

Lose Yourself [2.15]

 * Sharon Goodwin: Case coming your way. Window washer fell thirty-three stories. Should be DOA, but still alive. Barely.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Thirty-three?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Press will be all over this. Hospital PR's gonna be involved. Get ready for your close-up.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Thirty-three stories. God. Massive subdural hemorrhage. Significant left shift. Big mass effect is crushing his brain inside of his skull.
 * Dr. Sam Abrams: Well, he did fall off a building.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Craniotomy, right?
 * Dr. Sam Abrams: To what end? He's coagulopathic. I go in and take out the clot, it'll just re-accumulate.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: No, I don't think so. I'm actively giving him plasma, platelets, and cryo.
 * Dr. Sam Abrams: Which improves his overall chances of survival from 1% to 2. I'm not opening up his skull. I question whether he's even strong enough for this CT, but that was your call.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: If the pressure on his brain isn't relieved, it's over. That's 100%. I got him this far. He'll get through surgery.
 * Dr. Sam Abrams: All the king's horses and all the king's men... guess they should've gone to you.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * April Sexton: The CPS working?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: A-line pulsatility is decreasing.
 * April Sexton: Heart's beating less and less on its own.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: But it's only been a few hours. The meds need a while to build in her system.
 * April Sexton: And we can't speed up the process? [seeing his reaction] We can?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: IVIG and plasmapheresis. It's a method to block Melody's immune system from attacking heart muscle as it tries to clear the infection.
 * April Sexton: Well, why aren't we doing it?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: The science is unproven. The unknowns worry me. The risk of anaphylaxis, additional infections, inflammatory side effects.
 * April Sexton: Well, she already coded. Another one could be right around the corner. Isn't it worth trying anything?
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Not if it does more harm than good.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Yes, and the suit was how Edward dealt with his wife's death. See, I'm concerned that if he leaves, he's just gonna go get another one, and that will lead him right back here. Some knucklehead will see him in that costume and pick a fight. "Let's see how tough you are, Super-guy."
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Hm. It's possible, but... is he having any suicidal thoughts?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: No.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: And he's certainly not a danger to others. He literally presented saving a woman's life. I mean, he just doesn't meet the criteria for a psychiatric hold.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * [in the hope of walking again, their patient has been getting stem cell injections in Mexico]
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Good luck? Ethan, are you kidding?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Nat, I've met combat vets who have been paralyzed. The feelings of inferiority can be overwhelming. If you told them a bottle of snake oil might help them walk again, they'd drink it every time.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: So you agree with what Nick's doing?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: I understand it, Nat.

Prisoner's Dilemma [2.16]

 * Dr. Sarah Reese: It's my fault.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Why'd you say that?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I gave her false hope. I told her I believed she was stable when she clearly isn't.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I'm not sure I agree. I mean, just made her case a little tougher, but I'm still gonna file the appeal.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Why would you do that when she just tried to kill herself?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Losing hope is a not a sign of mental illness. It's a sign of being human. I mean, the poor girl; she has a violent, unstable mother, and her fate is in the hands of this psychiatrist who doesn't believe a word she says. I mean, given these odds, I can absolutely understand why she'd fall into despair.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: [performing an ultrasound on a patient] No kidney stones. Let's look at the bladder. [noticing something unusual] How long did you say she was in a vegetative state for?
 * Maggie Lockwood: Five years.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: We need to call the police. This woman is pregnant.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Erin Lindsay: Is this our victim?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Yeah. It's awful. You ever seen anything like this?
 * Erin Lindsay: I wish I could say I hadn't.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Okay, let's lift. One, two, three.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: So helpless.
 * Erin Lindsay: We're looking into all of the employees at Teresa's facility. We're checking visitor logs, security footage. We'll find out who had access to her and to her floor.
 * Maggie Lockwood: But the rape kit's only supposed to reveal DNA for the past five days. How is this gonna help?
 * Erin Lindsay: I hate to say this, but the likelihood in a case like this is that the offender's been assaulting her regularly, maybe even daily.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: In your daughter's condition, I have to tell you, taking this pregnancy to term would be extremely difficult.
 * Angela Azen: Why? Her brain has been injured, but her body's healthy.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: No. At five years in a persistent vegetative state, it's not. This is a high risk situation for pulmonary embolism, sepsis, colonic obstruction, respiratory failure.
 * Dave Azen: But those are just risks, right? It could all work out.
 * Sharon Goodwin: They are extremely high risks.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: If you have your daughter go through with this pregnancy, there is a chance that she will not survive.
 * Angela Azen: She's hardly living as it is. If she dies giving birth, maybe that's a merciful outcome. Sometimes, I've wished for that.
 * Sharon Goodwin: There is another issue to consider. Given the abuse your daughter has undergone, do you believe that she would want to keep this pregnancy? In any case, you are Teresa's guardians, and therefore speak on her behalf. Your wishes will be honored.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Nancy Leigh: I wasn't trying to commit suicide. I was trying to see you.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Do you believe it's okay to hurt yourself?
 * Nancy Leigh: How else could I get to you? It's not like I can ask for a phone call.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Nancy, you... you could seriously hurt or even killed yourself.
 * Nancy Leigh: You have to help me get out of there. They locked me up after I got in a fight with my mom, but she's bipolar; has been for years.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Hey, I'm sorry, but I'm... I'm not your psychiatrist.
 * Nancy Leigh: My mom came at me with a hammer while I was sleeping. I was trying to defend myself. That doesn't make me crazy.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: No. If that were the situation, it would be reasonable to defend yourself.
 * Nancy Leigh: See? You're the only one who said that. All the other doctors think I'm psychotic, but my mom's the one who's crazy.

Monday Mourning [2.17]

 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: You and Dr. Wheeler were friends?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: No, I hardly knew him. He came to me - twice - asking about pills, about therapy. And that wasn't really what he was asking for. He was asking for help. I don't know why he came to me, but he did, and now he's dead. What kind of terrible psychiatrist am I gonna be?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: You can't jump in and save everyone, Reese. It's just not possible.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: It's not that I didn't jump in to save him. I didn't even see that he was drowning.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Will Halstead: You ever seen this before? A resident ending it like this?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Unfortunately, I have. Yeah. Several times. You know that 400 doctors take their own lives every year, right? Most of any profession. I don't have a lot of evidence to back this up, but I got a strong hunch it's got something to do with taking people who have a powerful desire to help and throwing them into a game where the odds are just stacked against them. I mean, this I do know: situations like this, it's never just one thing. It's always a complex set of circumstances, and, um, you know, trying to figure it out, trying to assign blame... it's, uh... it's pretty pointless.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Helping people is just about the hardest job there is.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: You've been doing it what? 25, 30 several years? What what's the secret?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I'm still looking for that, but if I had to guess, I'd say it had something to do with, you know, just keep showing up, keep doing your job, put one foot in front of the other, 'cause when you start to get all tangled up in here, you know, that's when, I mean, it can just paralyze you.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Yeah. Still, it's gonna be a while before I can sleep again. [walks away sadly]
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Dr. Halstead? [Dr. Halstead turns to look at him] I think we're lucky to have you here.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: When I took this job, Daniel, I wanted to create an environment where we would never lose someone. Everyone would look out for each other. I thought I did. But then today, I found out there was a very troubled young man in our midst, and not a single person knew him. I failed.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Sharon, come on.
 * Sharon Goodwin: No, no. You... you got wonder about all the ones who don't jump off the ledge; what's going through their heads, how this job is affecting them. I worry about these people, Daniel. I worry about them.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I know you do. I know you do.
 * Sharon Goodwin: I wish I could protect them.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: They won't need me in the ED tomorrow, so I'll be back on your service.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Thank you. Thanks. I'll see you tomorrow.
 * [Reese hesitates, then enters his office and sits down next to him]
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Everybody comes to you, don't they? With all their pain? And you just have to absorb it. How are you doing today?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It was awful. It's just awful.

Lessons Learned [2.18]

 * Maggie Lockwood: [orienting a new nurse] Seven treatment rooms on the east side, four trauma bays on the west. Bays three and four combine to treat gunshot wounds, a place affectionately known as Baghdad. 4,000 shootings in Chicago. Some days we get... [patient screaming] a dozen. Drug dispensers are in the north and south end of the E.D., extra gurneys, isolation suites in the ambulance bay. Uh... Band-Aid, wound dressings, gauze, and extra weaponry are in the supply closet next to the elevator, which brings us right here to the command center.
 * Nurse Doris: Deer in the headlights.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Mm-hm.
 * Nurse Doris: Nursling?
 * Maggie Lockwood: Monique Lawson. She's got her Pediatric Advanced Life Support certification, and is doing her E.D. check-off skills training with yours truly.
 * Nurse Doris: [to Monique] Be careful. She bites.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: When Jason Wheeler jumped, do you think he was scared? Was... I mean, was... was he at peace? Right before he stepped off, was there a moment of regret? I just... I just can't stop thinking about him.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But see, I... I don't want to, and then I feel guilty because I don't.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: The thing about suicide, it's never really a lone act. It tends to leave a lot of victims in its wake. I'd be lying if I said I'd been sleeping too well recently. But, um... but you and I... we got work to do.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Monique Lawson: I hardly slept last night. I just couldn't stop thinking. I mean, so many people coming in, horrible injuries.
 * April Sexton: And this isn't even a busy day.
 * Monique Lawson: I just hope I'm up to it.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Quick, nurses' credo?
 * Monique Lawson: Uh... cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Uh-uh. Don't kill your patient.
 * Maggie Lockwood, April Sexton, Nurse Doris: Because that's the doctor's job.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: [approaching] I heard that.

Ctrl Alt [2.19]

 * April Sexton: What is all this about malware and decryption keys?
 * Sharon Goodwin: It's a ransom note. We've been hacked.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: Our server has been corrupted and shut down, and until we can restore the system, we'll be operating under downtime procedure. That means paper charts.
 * Maggie Lockwood: Oh, and no tablets, people. Hand 'em over.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: So we have no access to anyone's medical records? How... how do we do stuff?
 * Sharon Goodwin: Well, there was a time not so long ago when we actually treated patients without the aid of computers. Imagine that. Tell them, Dr. Charles.
 * Sharon Goodwin: [reluctant to hand over his tablet] Can I keep it if I promise not to use it?
 * Maggie Lockwood: Sorry, Dr. Charles, IT needs to check them all out.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I'm sorry, but the note says that if we pay them thirty Bitcoins, they'll give us a decryption key, so...
 * Sharon Goodwin: It's hospital policy not to engage with extortionists.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: So we're going to fly blind with one arm tied behind our back? It seems a little shortsighted. I mean, it's what, thirty, forty thousand dollars? It seems like nothing.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [quietly to Natalie] Says the guy with the trust fund.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: [her ex-husband's new girlfriend is being treated at the hospital] So I hear they went zip-lining in Costa Rica.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I thought it was South America somewhere.
 * Sharon Goodwin: You knew about this? Daniel.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I went and had drinks with Bert about a month ago, and, you know, he let it slip.
 * Sharon Goodwin: A month ago? And you've just been sitting on this?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I kinda thought it was more up to Bert to tell you, and I advised him to do exactly that.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Yeah, well, he didn't.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I'm sorry. You know, it's not so easy staying neutral throughout all this, you know. You want me to choose sides, I'll pledge my loyalty to you right now.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Not necessary. I gotta get back to work.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Sharon Goodwin: Hey, Dr. Rhodes, I don't know if you heard, but somebody paid the ransom, an open violation of hospital policy.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: What, you think it was me? I'm sorry, Ms. Goodwin, but as much as I would like to take credit, I didn't do it.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Well somebody paid.
 * [as Connor leaves, Dr. Abrams enters]
 * Sharon Goodwin: Was it you, Sam?
 * Dr. Sam Abrams: My kid starts Sarah Lawrence in the fall. Not a chance in hell I'm cutting a check that size to solve your problem.

Generation Gap [2.20]

 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Elliot is very troubled. The poor kid is just consumed with sexual thoughts.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Aren't most kids his age?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah, but he's been raised to believe that sex is wrong unless it's for procreation. And repressing his natural urges is triggering aggressive impulses, which he's struggling to control.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Aggressive?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: He fetishizes blondes. Stalks them.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: We're talking about a sexual predator?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Not a psychopath. I mean, he has a conscience. I mean, I think he could definitely benefit from therapy, but I'm not ruling out those meds.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Chemical castration, really?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It's temporary, Ethan. Raping somebody isn't.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Hey, pop.
 * Pat Halstead: What are you doing here?
 * Jay Halstead: I called him.
 * Pat Halstead: Wasted trip. I don't need you.
 * Jay Halstead: Are you kidding me? You missed two days of work, and you never miss work.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Pops, this is Connor Rhodes. He's another doc at Med.
 * Pat Halstead: [glares at Will] Told you I don't need this.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Come on, you can barely talk.
 * Pat Halstead: I'm gonna take advice from someone who wet the bed till he was nine?
 * Jay Halstead: Never changes. [gets up to leave] I gotta get back to the district.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Thanks, Jay.
 * Pat Halstead: Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Mr. Halstead, I'm seeing some things that tell me that your heart isn't working very well. Your fingertips are purple, you're having a hard time breathing, and your energy seems, uh... depleted.
 * Pat Halstead: Had this heart thing forever. It's... it's never been a problem.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: You mind if I have a listen?
 * Pat Halstead: If it'll get you two off my ass.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: [listening to Pat's heart] Apical holosystolic murmur and the lungs are wet.
 * Pat Halstead: In English?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: It means that your heart has been compensating for the faulty valve for a very long time, and now it can't keep up, so fluid is backing up into your lungs.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: It literally means you're drowning in your own blood. We need to get you to the hospital.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Stan Gallagher: So a kid got beat up. What does he need a psychiatrist for?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, Elliot was caught peeping on girls in the shower at school.
 * Debbie Gallagher: Oh, my god.
 * Stan Gallagher: Wait 'till I get him home.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: But much more troubling are some violent impulses that, so far, he hasn't acted upon.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: And there is something we can do.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Elliot wants us to give him a medication that would turn off his testosterone. This would significantly decrease his sex drive and make it much easier for him to control these impulses, but we do need your permission to do it.
 * Stan Gallagher: "Turn off his testosterone"? What exactly are you talking about?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: The medical term is chemical castration.
 * Debbie Gallagher: What?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: It's completely reversible. The idea would be to combine it with traditional therapy with the hope of ultimately weaning him off the medication.
 * Stan Gallagher: No. No way.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Elliot could very well be on the verge of acting out on some very disturbing impulses, including rape.
 * Debbie Gallagher: He would never do anything like that.
 * Stan Gallagher: You people are sick.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Again, this was your son's idea.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Elliot is torn up about this. He's scared he may not be able to stop himself.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Don't worry, Mr. Halstead. We're gonna get that mitral valve fixed.
 * Pat Halstead: Damn. The kid was right. Not so much a kid anymore, is he?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: No.
 * Pat Halstead: Did you know he put himself through college? I told him... told him it was a waste of time and damned if I was gonna pay for it.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Well, I'm sure you're very proud of him.
 * Pat Halstead: That doesn't even begin to say it. He made something of his life. He's a better man than I am.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I don't think he feels that way, sir. And I'm sure that he wouldn't want you to, either.

Deliver Us [2.21]

 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Sure you don't want me to wait with you?
 * Dr. Robin Charles: Connor, I'm fine.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: No, I'm not saying that you're not. I just know that waiting rooms can be awfully boring. You know, all those old issues of "People" magazine.
 * Dr. Robin Charles: Anyone gets a little anxiety, they get a massage. Daughter of a psychiatrist, full-blown psych eval.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: [cupping her face] Look, we both know that you haven't exactly been yourself lately. So let's just do this right. We'll get you back on your feet, okay?
 * Dr. Robin Charles: Fine.

 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Dr. Kwon just told me Robin's coming in to be evaluated. I'm so sorry to hear that.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah, thanks. Just, um, I'm hoping for the best.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: He chose me as the resident to do her initial evaluation.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Really?
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Yeah, he said you spoke very highly of me. Thank you.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, I didn't tell him anything that wasn't true.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I imagine it must be hard to have to stay at arm's length from your daughter's treatment, but - and this goes without saying, but I just want to say it anyway - Dr. Kwon and I will do everything we can to make sure Robin gets the best possible care.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Dr. Reese, I have complete confidence in you. And there's anything I can do to help, you just let me know.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I will.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: How dare you admit Robin behind my back? She is my patient. You didn't examine her. You didn't treat her.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You didn't see her apartment.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I don't care what you saw! You should've come to me first.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I didn't have time, Dr. Reese. She was leaving the hospital.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Yes, because I gave her the night to think about it. I know she needs to be admitted!
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I thought... I thought that she was masking it from you.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: No! We were making progress. I was trying to get her to admit herself voluntarily. To take ownership of the idea so she'd be in the best state of mind to accept treatment. I needed to earn her trust for that, and now that chance is gone. You had to run around sticking your nose in everything instead of letting me do my job.

 * Maggie Lockwood: Imagine that baby being responsible for keeping its sister alive. Serial bone marrow donation. Maybe a kidney one day. Part of its liver. Not gonna be easy.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Nope. But if your kid had advanced leukemia, what would you do?
 * Maggie Lockwood: Whatever it takes.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Mm-hmm.

 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Mr. Walker didn't die of an MI.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [reading the autopsy report] Massive pulmonary embolism.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I can't believe it. I totally missed it.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Oh, come on. Even if we knew, there's nothing we could have done differently. It happened so fast. We didn't have time to get heparin on board, let alone send him upstairs.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: No, I know, but still... I... I...
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Wait. How did you get this so fast? These reports usually take at least three to four hours.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Nina brought it up to me.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: She came upstairs and gave it to you?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Yeah. You know, I... I... I'm gonna go back over the chart. See if there were some clues.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Nat, listen. You did everything you could for that man, so don't get down on yourself over it. Hey, you're too good a doctor.

White Butterflies [2.22]

 * Dr. Daniel Charles: [about his daughter Robin] I really appreciate your being here. Support from friends and family is crucial for the therapeutic process, so thank you.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Committed against her will? She can't even shower by herself. That is some theraputic process.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Oh, I think we all wish this could've happened differently, but, you know, at least she's getting the care that she needs, and she's safe and secure.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: No. She's locked up. In prison. It's not the same thing. This place is what is gonna drive her crazy. She needs to be out of here.

 * April Sexton: We cannot do this, Ethan.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: He was clear in his decision.
 * April Sexton: Because you pressured him, made him feel like he had to choose right now.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: No, I gave him his medical options, and he decided on what was best for him. Don't put this on me.
 * April Sexton: It is on you. Your hands may have been tied by his advance directive, but giving him heparin knowing it's lethal, that's assisted suicide.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: April, we can't save Gary, but one organ donor can save up to eight lives. One tissue donor can improve the lives of up to fifty others. Because of him, fifty-eight people get a second chance. Put in the order for heparin.
 * April Sexton: No.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Then I'll do it myself.

 * Jay Halstead: I spoke to the parents together and independently.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: And?
 * Jay Halstead: I don't like the stepdad for the guy. He offered to give a polygraph and submit his DNA. Offenders don't usually behave that way.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Any other leads?
 * Jay Halstead: Allison's comprehensive tox screen detected trace amounts of triazolam in her blood. That's a benzo, right?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Yeah. A sedative hypnotic with amnestic properties.
 * Jay Halstead: The stepdad's an accountant. I don't see him getting his hands on that.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: Unless maybe he was prescribed it. I mean, it is sometimes used for insomnia.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Yeah, it definitely puts you out. The hospital uses it mostly to treat patient anxiety, usually before procedures, MRIs scans, things like that.
 * Jay Halstead: So she could have gotten it here. Did you give it her before the CT scan?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: No.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: [checking his tablet] No.
 * Jay Halstead: Another doctor then, maybe. Did the mom mention any other recent medical issues?
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: No, nothing. Other than the symptoms that brought her in today. [remembering something] Braces. Allison did just get her braces on.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: Dentists also sometimes use triazolam.

 * Sharon Goodwin: Making a break for it, Keoni? Really?
 * Keoni: Seemed like a good idea at the time. Figured Maggie was sending over a shrink.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Oh, no. You get me.
 * Keoni: I appreciate the red carpet, but there's nothing you can do. In the back of my mind, I knew it was diabetes. I should've never come to the hospital.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Because what, denial is a good solution?
 * Keoni: You don't understand, Sharon. My family, diabetes kills. Now it's my turn.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Your genetics don't doom you, Keoni.
 * Keoni: No? I eat healthy. I don't drink the coladas or the daiquiris that I make at the bar. I exercise. Yet here I am. I did what I was supposed to do.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Yeah, and unfortunately, people like you and I have to do that and more to break the cycle. Yes, I have diabetes, too. And I've lost family also.
 * Keoni: I didn't know.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Many don't. And it's not because I'm hiding it, but because I've got it under control. And I have for the last fourteen years. There are people in this hospital who have to surrender. You have an opportunity. [handing him a pamphlet] You better take it.

 * Janelle Nicholson: The orthodontist? I was in the waiting room the whole time just checking my e-mails. When she came out, she smiled, showed me her braces, didn't seem any different.
 * Dr. Will Halstead: The police suspect instead of nitrous, he used triazolam. It knocked her out, ensured she had no memory of the assault.
 * Kevin: Sick bastard.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: I know this is a lot to process, but once Allison is stronger, the detective would like to come in and ask her a few questions.
 * Janelle Nicholson: Look, Ali just had a brush with death, and all she cares about is if she can still go to the junior high dance. She's so innocent. I don't want to take that from her. One day we'll have to, but not today.
 * Dr. Natalie Manning: We understand. We'll be back in the morning to check on her.

Love Hurts [2.23]

 * Dr. Daniel Charles: [Robin has been brought into Med after a psychotic break] So, you, um... you starting to figure out why I didn't want her leaving the hospital?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: She was rational. She was lucid.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I warned you.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Robin was fine, okay? Suddenly, she just...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Suddenly, look at her now! This is on you. You did this.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I have been reviewing Robin's history just to make sure we haven't missed anything, and... well, uh, some of her symptoms, they're not consistent with a psychiatric disorder.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Dr. Reese...
 * Sharon Goodwin: Let her finish.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: Two days ago when Robin came to the hospital, she was running a mild fever, 100.2, and her BP was elevated. Now, at the time, we didn't think anything of it...
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: That's cause it's a very mild fever. And of course her BP was elevated. She was on a forced hold. She was agitated.
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: But when Robin was brought in today, it seemed she was experiencing visual hallucinations. Now, auditory hallucinations indicate a mental disorder, but visual hallucinations should be considered organic until proven otherwise.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: I think we all wish that Robin had a treatable physical condition rather than...
 * Dr. Sarah Reese: I want to check her ceruloplasmin levels and run an FTA-ABS, as well as an MRI and EEG to rule out scelerosis and epilepsy.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Of course. Do it.
 * [Dr. Reese leaves]
 * Sharon Goodwin: What's the matter with you?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: She's trying to make me feel better. And bless her, but she's grasping at straws. Come on.
 * Sharon Goodwin: Are you so blinded by your fear that Robin inherited her problems from you that you won't even entertain an alternative?
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: False hope, Sharon. Come on. I don't need any.
 * Sharon Goodwin: You don't know that. Where's the Daniel who leaves no stone unturned when diagnosing a patient? Where's the Daniel who never gives up? Don't you think your own daughter deserves that much?

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: I was wrong to take Robin out of the hospital. I'm sorry.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well... I have certainly been wrong, too. Seeing the whole thing through the prism of my own fears.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Since I was a kid, I always wondered if there was something I could've done to stop my mom from killing herself. I obviously couldn't save my mom, but I was sure as hell gonna try and save Robin.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: You know, at one point, I considered bringing that up. Decided it probably wouldn't have been helpful.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: [they share a snicker] Yeah, probably not.
 * Dr. Daniel Charles: Well, she's not gonna want to have anything to do with me after all this is over, that's for sure.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: You saw Mr. Crocker?
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: Yeah. Pretty young to have that kind of heart trouble.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Well, could be genetics or... he said he's alone, right? He's not married. No friends. No family.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: None.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Loneliness puts you at risk for heart disease.
 * Dr. Ethan Choi: That for real?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Yeah. I think we all know that love can hurt, right? But loneliness, that'll kill you.

<hr width="50%"/>
 * Dr. Robin Charles: A tumor?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Yeah. Reaction to your antibodies caused your psychiatric symptoms.
 * Dr. Robin Charles: So I was crazy, but I wasn't crazy?
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: Yeah, something like that.
 * Dr. Robin Charles: Okay.
 * Dr. Connor Rhodes: You should know something. It was your dad that came up with the diagnosis. Robin, he's hardly left your side. You should talk to him.
