Jerry: Thank you for your kind attention.

Matt: Oh, I am not done with you yet. I need to get a ct scan of his kidneys.

Elizabeth
: He was punched.

Matt: The severity of your pain, what would you compare that to? A stubbed toe? Childbirth?

Elizabeth: Hey.

Matt: How about watching the cable news?

Jerry: Yes, that one, yes.

Matt: Okay, is it steady?

Jerry: Oh, no, it’s — oh.

Matt: Yes, okay. See, he has episodic pain of colic, which means that he –

Elizabeth: Is having kidney pain that comes and goes?

Matt: Yes. Have you also had strep throat recently?

Jerry: Yes, as a matter of fact, I have.

Matt: Let me get a urine sample as well.

Elizabeth: You’re testing for PSGN?

Matt: No, I want to see if he’s taken any cool drugs. You never know when you’re going to need a new dealer.

Elizabeth: Sometimes a bruise is just a bruise.

Matt: Nadine, the little girl who came into the clinic earlier with the antibiotic issue, how is she doing?

Nadine: She’s stable. It helps that now she’s getting actual antibiotics instead of the fake ones she was given at Mercy.

Elizabeth: Oh, that’s scary to think the meds we’re giving to cure patients could actually be useless counterfeits.

Nadine: Yeah.

[Elevator bell rings]

Lucky: Hey, can I talk to you for a minute?

Elizabeth: Yeah. Excuse me.

Lucky: Listen, something’s come up, and I kind of have to work this weekend. I’m supposed to take Cameron to the — you know, the baseball game this week, and I just really hate to disappoint him.

Elizabeth: Don’t even worry about it. He — he knows what you do is important. His daddy saves lives for a living. It’s okay. I’ll explain it to him again.

Lucky: Thank you.

Elizabeth: Don’t worry about things like this.

Lucky: I know, it’s just that I don’t want to –

Sam: Well, you can never make time for me, but her, a woman who cheated on you and dumped you –

Elizabeth: No, no, no, Sam, this is not what it looks like.

Sam: No, I know when a guy — I know exactly what it is, and I’m sick to death of it.

Nikolas: Hey.

Elizabeth: Hey.

Nikolas: What’s wrong?

Elizabeth: I’m worried about lucky.

Nikolas: Why, what happened?

Elizabeth: He came to the hospital to talk to me about Cameron, and Sam totally misread the situation and turned it into this big fight.

Nikolas: Okay. Well, why — why does that concern you?

Elizabeth: Well, they’re fighting because of me. And I can’t get involved.

Nikolas: It sounds to me like it’s between Sam and lucky.

Elizabeth: Yeah, except I’ve made things more difficult. It’s no secret that I was opposed to Lucky dating Sam, and it’s only recently that I’ve made peace with it. And I actually thought Sam and I had reached some kind of a truce, but I guess it was too little, too late. Look, I don’t want Lucky to lose her because of me. So I thought maybe you could talk to him and talk to Sam and help them try to work this out?

Nikolas: Why? Why would you want me to do that if you don’t even think that Sam is right for him?

Elizabeth: After everything I’ve done to hurt Lucky, the least I can do is just get out of the way and let him be happy with Sam.
