Season 8- Episode 17 - Bygones

Hmm, I think it's about time Mark switched to an electric razor...it'd be terrible if he accidentally slit his throat while shaving. (wait a minute, what am I saying!)

When did Ella get so much hair? Maybe Rachel's E had been cut with Angel Dust or something.

And speaking of hair, when did *Rachel* get so much?

Lieutenant Gallant. Mmm, yes, there is *definitely* something about a man in uniform <g>

Was Gallant carrying those eggs around in a bedpan?

And I'll say it yet again. Wearing scrubs makes med students look waaay more mature than lab coats.

I can't believe that Mark is scheduling Chemotherapy for the *middle* of his shift. He knows that it's not always possible to get out of the ER at a specified time. He knows how crappy he felt after radiotherapy and that Chemo is generally way worse, but yet he plans to be going and treating patients even when he's ready to hurl.

Romano "Stay away from love...it does things to the brain."
Maybe somebody should have warned Mark.

Patient who needed the liver transplant "What's to think about?"
Uh hello! I have a sister that I'm very close to, but there's no way in hell that I'd make a decision about donating a piece of me to her in the space of five minutes. I can't believe they ambushed her like that. Heck, I was half expecting Elizabeth to say "Just sit up on the gurney here, let me get my scalpel and we'll have it out of you immediately." I know there was a time factor involved but that was just way too much pressure too quickly.

Baby gym class? Please don't tell me that babies less than a year old go to gym class?

Elizabeth to Charlie re Kerry "You're in perfectly good hands."
Bit of a change of heart from a year ago when Elizabeth was wishing a fatal disease on Kerry.

Hmm, Kerry needs to go back to last season's hairdresser. She's much nicer with redder hair.

Mark should never have put Susan in the position of having to cover for him in the first place. He should have told Elizabeth immediately.

Poor Elizabeth. I actually felt sorry for her when she got confirmation that Mark was sick again. I think that until the Oncology nurse said that he was there, Elizabeth was still hoping that she'd jumped to the wrong conclusion.

Elizabeth "How much time?" Mark "If this works, 10 months."
Wait a minute, don't tease us like that. I thought the doctor in New York said only five.

Elizabeth "You're going back to work?"
Mark "I don't know what else to do."
Looks like Kerry's not the only one whose life revolves around the ER.

Loved the 'gastrointestinal bric-a-brac' <g>
Susan "I can't believe you pulled [my pen] out of someone's stomach."
Carter "Other end."
Susan "Keep it."

I don't think too badly of the girl for not wanting to donate part of her liver. The sister seemed to be acting like it was *her* right to have any part of her siblings body any time that she wanted it.

Mark "I just had my first round of chemotherapy Kerry, I feel like hell. I'm going to go home now."
So when exactly was he going to mention to his boss and colleagues that he was having treatment for a recurrence? Was he going to wait until he started puking up during a trauma? How about waiting until he had a seizure while talking to a patient?

Mmm, cute Luka in sports clothes!

When Luka asked Abby "Is this the last [beer]?" I don't think it was because he knew how many beers there should have been and was worried that Abby had drunk them all. I think it was more because of the way Abby looked at him when he took hers. Sort of as if there *weren't* any more and she was pissed at him cause he'd just finished the last of hers.

This should end speculation about whether or not Abby had told Luka she was an alcoholic. No way in hell would she have been sitting there drinking and so relaxed if she knew that he knew.

Grrr, damn you TPTB. Two years with Dave on the show and *now* you bring in baby ducks?

Kerry to Sandy "You were right, you *did* do me a favor."
NO NO NO NO NO!!!!! I can't believe she said that.

Even though I knew what was coming, I was still hoping that Kerry would have kissed Lopez and then said, "You did do me a favor...but I could never be with someone who violated my privacy like that and revealed something that I'd told them I didn't want made public at my place of work. I could never trust you again, so goodbye."

I also can't believe that Mark hadn't told Rachel. Didn't she have the right to be warned of Mark's condition if she's living under the same roof as him? She's 14. She's old enough to be told what's going on.

What's the betting that Rachel isn't going to let Ella get more than two feet away from her while she's minding her *this* time <g>


And my usual rant about how Dave could have been used in an episode. Well there's no contest...who better to be looking after a bunch of baby ducks <g>
