Matt: So order a bmp, a CBC, and blood work on Mr. Ramirez. Oh, and we’re also going to need a liver panel. And you can feel free to chime in at any time.
Elizabeth: I’m sorry?
Matt: Isn’t this usually where you tell me I’m going test-happy and overboard and in love with the sound of my own barking voice?
Elizabeth: There’s no point. You’ll do what you want anyway, right?
Matt: Well, maybe. It’s not about ego, it’s about healing. I think one of the biggest problems in this country with the health care industry is that the professionals are often looking for the simplest solution when the solution is anything but.
Elizabeth: You know, you actually managed to sound sincere about that.
Matt: Well, I was. So does this mean that you’re ready to forgive me and admit that you were wrong?
Elizabeth: Um, no.
Matt: Okay, well, I guess I just have to keep trying.
Elizabeth: Don’t bother.
Kelly: Did records send up Robin’s chart?
Elizabeth: Uh, yes. Here you go.
Kelly: Thanks. Robin and Patrick are coming in for an ultrasound. In less than an hour, they’ll know whether they’re having a boy or a girl.
Robin: Hi.
Elizabeth: Hey, big day — dump trucks or dollies. Are you guys nervous?
Robin: Yeah, I am a little.
Patrick: Did you find out if Jake and Cam were boys before you had them?
Elizabeth: No, I waited, but I still knew both times.
Patrick: Had a feeling, huh?
Elizabeth: Mm-hmm.
Patrick: Well, you’re not on record, but is there any feeling screaming from inside you?
Robin: Yeah, actually, I do have a feeling about it.
Matt: Well, hello, all. A patient is coming up from E.R., bus accident, massive head trauma. Can you take it?
[Patrick sighs]
Patrick: Yeah, prep an O.R., get me scans and tests.
Matt: Okay, I was the attending downstairs, so I’d like to scrub in.
Patrick: That’s fine. You’re okay to be on the team?
Elizabeth: Yes.
