Carol: (Walks over to Doug)
Doug: (Sleeping in a rocking chair)
Carol: (Squats down and kisses him) Hey.
Doug: (Wakes up) Hey. (Smiles) I was in the middle of a pretty decent dream.
Carol: Was I there?
Doug: Big time. (Smiles)
Carol: (Smiles)
Doug: You think I did the right thing?
Carol: Yeah, I do.
Doug: Even if we both get fired for it?
Carol: Well, you know, that would just be icing on the cake. (Kisses him again)
Scene 2: Nurses' Station
Doug: Mark, Kerry, this is the incident report if you wanna go over anything. (Kerry walks off to the side)
Mark: (Faces Doug) Like maybe why you lied to me?
Doug: You wouldn't have understood, Mark, you see, it's--
Mark: Well you really didn't give me a chance to.
Kerry: You know what? Take it outside! We got work to do.
(Doug and Mark Go Outside )
Doug: This kid was more important.
Mark: You always got a patient as an excuse to hide behind. (Pushes open the ambulance bay doors. They talk outside where it's raining)
Doug: When it's necessary, I'm willing to go out on a limb.
Mark: Go out on a limb? You took the whole tree with you this time! I was trying to support you!
Doug: To become a Pedes Attending, Mark? You were never gonna support me if it meant giving up that much authority!
Mark: Well we'll never know now, we'll we? Because you do what you always do--You go out for something you want, and when you're just about to get it, you
sabotage it!
Doug: Is that what you're so angry about? (They walk off to the side)
Mark: Look, I'm not angry. I'm disappointed.
Doug: You like being disappointed in me Mark. It validates the fact that you are the adult and I'm the screw-up.
Mark: You never wanted to grow up.
Doug: You don't want me to grow up! You like our friendship the way it is. We go out, we have a couple of beers, we come here--you're the boss!
Mark: And for good reason based on your actions!
Doug: Based on your inability to see me as an equal, Mark. It was bad enough when Kerry stepped out.
Mark: I supported her in that.
Doug: You supported her on the surface, yes, underneath you resented her. Like you resent what I'm doing with Josh McNeal.
FEEDBACK: I loved that episode! It was so cool to see everyone working together. really weird how they matched everyone up. Benton and Corday, Doug Carol and Mark, and Carter and Anna. cool!

huh?
Carol: [Nods]
Doug: You okay?
Carol: Yeah.
Doug: You sure?
Carol: He kept asking for his daughter. [Stops what she's doing] I never thought of it like that, you know? Maybe he wanted to see me, and I never came.
Doug: Your dad was probably in a coma, Carol.
Carol: I don't know, I've been living my mother's version of it for so long that I don't know what memories of him are mine.
Doug: What was her version?
Carol: Everything was alright. It was an accident.
Doug: [Sadly Sighs]
Carol: [Short pause] He was depressed, Doug.
Doug: Well, maybe it's time you talk to your mom about it.
Carol: [Nods] After he was gone, my mom used to go on and on how you can never depend on men.
Doug: [Chuckles a little]
Carol: [Looks straight at Doug] Now, she's head over heels and I'm the one holding back. How messed up is that?
Doug: [Clears throat and smiles] Keeps me on my toes. [Smiles]
Carol: I say I want time but the truth is...[Walks over and stands in front of Doug. He gets up and puts his hands on Carol's arms. Beautiful but sad tune starts to play] I'm scared to death of losing you.

Doug: (Shakes his head) Was that the guy?
Carol: Yes, that's they guy. I'm not seeing him or anything.
Doug: Now, you're not ready to commit, that's fine. You wanna screw firemen, fine! Just don't humiliate me in front of my friends! Carol: Humiliate you? What about the surgical tech in the on call room? Or the pedes nurse in the parking lot?
Doug: Ancient history.
Carol: How about the drug rep with the fake breasts and the big hair?!
Doug: Ancient history!
Carol: I have to do the entire Bulls' line-up on the damn admit desk to even begin to be equal with you!
Doug: Is that what this is? Is this about getting even with me for the things I did a long time ago?
Carol: No, this is about me needing some time and you being really pissed off that things aren't working out exactly as you planned. I've spent years, years of my life changing to fit your needs, working around your schedules, (Starting to cry) your insecurities, your inabilities to commit (Crying)! You know what Doug? It's not all about you. I know that may come as a shock. But a relationship is give and take--two people as equals and right now I need something! So you can grow up and accept it or you can go and continue to be the selfish, self centered bastard you've always been and refuse to give me the one thing, one thing I've ever asked you for! (Walks away crying)
Scene 3: Exam Room
Carol: (Showing the parents how to wrap the baby in a blanket)...You fold under. You fold up. Then you fold over. Now you try.

Carol: Yeah, you're doing great!
Doug: (Takes another step forward and Carol sees him. She walks over in front of him) Looks like they're doing great. (Looking at the couple and smiles. Then he looks at the ground)
Carol: Yeah, then why is it so hard for us? (Smiles)
Doug: I don't know. (Facing Carol...a short pause as their forheads rest against each other's) I didn't mean to push...(Kinda looking at the ground then another pause occurs) Take all the time you need. I'll wait. (Kisses her forehead and walks away)
Carol: (Gets teary and smiles to herself)

Doug: I just wanna show her I'm serious.
Mark: Sounds like a big night.
Doug: And then, I'm gonna get a-a limo and we're going to the Ironhead Lodge in Dundee and then at one minute after midnight the Justice Of Peace is gonna perform the ceremony.
Mark: That sounds great. (Smiling)
Doug: Yeah, alright, now what would make it perfect is if you would agree to be the best man.
Mark: You think you have to ask?
Doug: Yeah?
Mark: Yeah sure I'd be honored! (Doug and him hug)
Doug: (Laughing) Oh man, I can't believe this. (Running his fingers through his hair) Every other woman I've went out with, it was just-- I knew it was wrong. Now, I'm gonna spend the rest of my life with her. (Rubbing his head nervously) I, um, I'm talking like an idiot here.

Scene 3: Doug's Apartment
Note: This upcoming scene if after Carol had kissed Greg Powell...one of the most painful moments I had to watch:(:(:(:(
Doug: (Hangs up phone as Carol walks in) I've been waiting for you all night. (Had his serious face on)
Carol: I'm sorry. (serious) I got wrapped up. I called here but you weren't home.
Doug: I was at the corner of Deer Born and Clark.
Carol: (Now about 4 feet away from Doug) Right.
Doug: I called the hospital, the firehouse, they both said that you and the 57 came back on time.
Carol: Yeah, I was talking to Greg Powell. It was um, the paramedic on my ride-along. It was a really hard day for both of us. (Takes off her coat) And um, it's just one of those things where you talk to someone you hardly even know and you start telling them things.
Doug: Mmm. Talking to him all night? (Very still and serious with his hands in his pockets)
Carol: We got coffee then we talked. Since then I've been walking.
Doug: In this cold?
Carol: I needed to think.
Doug: About what?
Carol: (Looks at Doug then looks down and starts to cry) About you and me, the engagement, the vows, the rings, and uh, (Sniffles) I think we're rushing into this. I don't think we're ready.
Doug: I'm ready. And you're not?
Carol: When I was talking to Greg Powell, it got intense and um.....I kissed him.
Doug: (Short sigh)
Carol: It didn't go any further than that.
Doug: (Had a hurt look on his face) Mmm hmm.
Carol: It was just one of those moments, you know.
Doug: Mmm hmm. (Walks away from Carol and gets his coat) Okay that's good. (Avoiding eye contact) I just wanted to make sure that you were safe and sound.
Carol: Doug! I am so sorry! (Crying)
Doug: Yep, me too. (Walks out and slams the door behind him)
Carol: (Silently cries)
FEEDBACK: Um...the 2 beggining scenes were sweet...everything was so perfect! But the last scene made me kinda teary and the
scene was good but what had happened in it was...really sad and I did not like it. Damn you Powell! Carol, you didn't kiss him! He kissed you! Aaaaahhh!! Pain...excruciating pain. Help...me...

Doug: Hey.
Mark: So how was it, meeting your father's in-laws?
Doug: I'm glad I did it--but it was hard. Sherry's death hit 'em really bad. That was her name--Sherry.
Mark: (The 2 of them start walking down the hall) Listen, I'd like you to see a depressed anhedonic girl, complaining of loss of
appetite and insomnia.
Doug: (Examines girl's chart) Uh-huh.
Mark: She's in exam room 3.
Doug: Psych take a look at her?
Mark: I'd like for you to evaluate her first. (Smiles and walks away as Doug heads for Exam Room 3)

Doug: Uh-huh.
Doug and Carol: (Practically runs to each other and starts kissing again!)
FEEDBACK: Okay, this was one of my favorite Doug and Carol moments:) It was hilarious and yet so romantic. When Cynthia gave Carol that look (For those of you who don't know), she looked at her that way because Carol had just warned her not to have sex or any kind of behavior like that in rooms in the hospital! Now, I absolutely loved this part...heh heh heh. :) *Remember, breath in, and out, in, and out* :)

Doug: We have a suit here. It's an Armani, I believe it's double breasted.

Mark: (Hangs his mouth down) I'm speechless.
Doug: Well, I'm relieved.
Mark: You two got back together?
Doug: She didn't want me talking about it because she didn't want it out at work. Now you are sworn to secrecy.

amazement)

Doug: (Squatting down) Carol. (smiles) I'm in love with her. I use to think I knew what love was. I mean I cared about a lot
of them. And I just don't think that I've ever really been in love. I think about her all the time. I don't like it when I'm not with
her. I don't wanna be with anybody else.That's love isn't it?
Mark: (Smiles) Yeah,that's love.
SCENE FEEDBACK: (sigh) All I can say is, whoah!
Scene 3: A Bridge
Doug: Hey.
Mark: You missed dinner.
Doug: Drove up to Long Beach. Checked out that return address.
Mark: Anything?
Doug: Oh hey, it's not my dad's kid. He's living in Arizona with the ex-husband. (Rasberries a little) So, how's family life?
(Chuckles a little)
Mark: Dad's got emphysima. I thought he was gonna cough himself to death over the fried chicken.
Doug: Is he ok?
Mark: He's on inhaler, oxygen. He seemed alright.
Doug: Is he getting decent care?
Mark: Oh, I'm sure he's fine.
Doug: (Getting the point that Mark doesn't wanna talk about it) So why don't you stay down here for a while? I'll go back up to Barstow by myself and you spend some time with him?
Mark: Eh...why bother? You really didn't miss much not having your father around when you were growing up Doug. Believe me.
Doug: That's, that's kind of a crappy thing to say isn't it?
Mark: It wasn't my idea to come down here.
Doug: Then don't stay.
Mark: Don't worry, I won't.
Doug: Now I'm confused. Your father's still alive right? And he's still with your mother?
Mark: Oh so that's the criteria for a good father? A longjevity?
Doug: Did he smack you around a lot? Did he smack your mom around?
Mark: Poor Doug.
Doug: Wait, poor Doug?! Your father,did he go in to your room at night, throw up on your bed, then pass out? Did he do that? Did he leave you in a hallway in Atlantic City while he screwed some hat check girl, Mark? Did he do that? Did he do that, Mark?! Your
father was there for you every night, you and your mother and that's love! And it's whether the way you want it or not! It's love Mark! You grew up in Ozzie and Harriete land, get your head out of your ass!
Mark: (Walks away)
Doug: (Walks away)
SCENE FEEDBACK: I totally love that scene! Doug looked so cute when he's in his 'pissed off' face! But I think that's he's right. Mark doesn't realize what Doug missed before. But as we all know, later on the show, Mark admits that he's wrong.
Scene 4: Outisde the Barstow Motel
Doug: (Mark and him pull up to the motel) Man, I'm beat! (Gets out of car)
Mark: (Him and Doug walk up to the motel doors, groans) Wanna go get some breakfast, get a few hours of sleep before we go to
that funeral home?
Doug: (Looks over to see who's standing at his far left and sees that it's Carol)
Mark: Doug, you wanna do that? Doug?
Doug: (Walks over to Carol, a small smile spreading across his face)
Carol: (Walks over to Doug, her face showing so much love )
Doug: (He kisses her lips and then they embrace)
Mark: (Looks on and smiles)
