Season 8- Episode 3 - Blood Sugar Sex Magic
RTE voiceover "Dr. Malucci flirts with disaster (Cein -
ahhh, so *that's* her name) and Dr. Greene has a surprise visitor."
Two weeks in that apartment and Luka *still* hasn't unpacked? Tsk
tsk tsk (Cein carefully ignores the bag of stuff she brought from
home after Christmas that is still in the corner of *her* room
almost a month later)
Oh come on, they seriously expect us to believe that a little
knock like that could crack a fish tank?
Abby "I don't know if it's salt water, I didn't taste it."
(smirk)
Mark to the sprained ankle dude "Normally I'd do some
bloodletting, but we're low on leeches." (mustn't make Abby
comment, mustn't make Abby comment)
Awww, poor little Reese and his little flashlight (sniffle) Now
why couldn't they have *showed* us that scene. (then they could
have cut the Cleo/Benton bit)
Benton "My son's gonna grow up without a mother.....and
there's nothing I can do about it."
Um, never heard of 'stepmothers' dude?
Cleo "I was waiting on a surgical consult."
Dave "Aw, come on, you were in there gabbing with your
boyfriend."
Cein "Word!!"
(although, Dave *was* out of line in treating another doctor's
patient...but then, wasn't Mark doing the same thing with some of
Kerry's?)
Dave (re Cleo and her 'butt hole' patient) "Freudian thing,
isn't it?"
Why did Kerry give him the 'look', which is normally reserved for
times when someone makes a comment about gay people?
And yet again, Chen - who is supposedly the *Chief* Resident -
lets a 'junior' member of staff persuade her into a course of
action she's not happy about. Granted that Carter is much more
experienced than Dave, and of course *he's* not going to make the
wrong call.
Dave "I'm Dr. Dave."
EMT "So I've been warned."
(smirk)
The elevator didn't look *that* crowded to me.
Luka to Abby "Did you find your sweater?"
Abby "Yeah." (and I found a few good CD's as well. You
don't mind, do you?)
Rachel "I swear I'm adopted."
Mark and Jen "We wish!!"
How dumb do you have to be to *not* lock the ambulance door?
You could almost *see* Kerry realize that her 'scapegoat' has
just shown up.
Mark "Malucci is not the first doctor to get caught
performing an unauthorized physical in the hospital." Yeah
Mark, you'd know all about *that*.
Abby re Luka "He sleeps with the window open." (please
everyone, no vampire jokes <g>)
So Carter tells Abby he has a bad back and she *still* insists on
climbing on top of him?
And why didn't he just lift her up as far as the fire escape. I
mean, we know he's able to carry her (Rescue Me) and the fire
escape wasn't *that* high.
Patient "I can't have a baby." And yes, the anvil
wouldn't work properly if we didn't get a quick shot of Chen's
reaction to the comment.
Hmm, guess they had a two for the price of one deal on anvils,
cause they managed to get Mark with the whole "I don't want
to be responsible for my child" one as well.
I can't believe it. Luka has graciously allowed Carter and Abby
to be released without charge, and *neither* of them has the
common courtesy or decency to apologize to him and thank him?
So, last season Reese needed to be watched 100% of the time while
he was in Cleo's living room. But he's matured sufficiently in
the last few months so that neither Peter nor Jackie are bothered
that he's wandering around the corridor at County?
Peter re Reese "I need to find someone to look after him."
Romano "Don't look at me." (smirk)
Awww, poor Dave, sitting in the ambulance bay all alone (sniffle)
Chen "You know, they say you're not a real doctor until
you've killed a few patients."
Gee Chen, you *really* know how to make a guy feel better.
Dave "This is the only thing that I've ever been any good at."
Oh I don't know, Dave. I think that paramedic you were just with
might disagree ;-)
Dave "I need this job. You can't fire me. I have a kid to
support."
Okay, I know there's been a lot of speculation as to whether Dave
was lying through his teeth just to gain sympathy. Well, my
opinion is that he was telling the truth. The look on his face
wasn't that of a guy who was thinking, "Quick, what can I
say to make her change her mind? Tell her I've got an aged mother
to support? Nah, she'd never fall for that. Ooh, I know, let's
tell her I've got a kid."
To my mind, it was more the look of a guy who's grudgingly having
to admit to something because it's his last resort. He didn't *want*
to have to say anything, but he didn't feel he had a choice.
Kerry "Since when? You never said anything about being a
father."
Hmm, is Kerry feeling a twinge of guilt and maybe wishing that
she'd picked a different scapegoat?
Whoa, for a second there during Dave's last speech, I was almost
expecting him to actually hit her.
