Original subtitles

Previously on Third Watch.

She was supposed to meet me.

Is she breathing?

Barely. Is she going to be okay?

Kim? Doc, does she breathe?

Watch her neck. Watch her neck, okay?

I came to talk about getting back on the schedule.

I can't believe Doc did this. I don't mean that as a diss on you. I mean

me like he did.

He needs to work with Kim.

You see anybody?

Like who?

A therapist.

You know what, Mom? It's none of your damn business who I'm seeing or not

seeing. I'm sorry I didn't answer the phone last night when Joey was sick.

We share custody. And in the event of your death, your ex -wife would make a

and suitable soul guardian, Mr. Doherty? Well, she's had some problems. Why

won't you talk about this? Because you don't have cancer.

Still calling sick.

No, I'm okay. I'm just tired.

Calling tired, then. Maybe everybody's tired. Everybody's working 12.

You're not everybody.

You should be taking it easy. The procedure's a week away.

It's surgery, Fred.

And I'll take it easy afterwards.

Maybe I should talk to Bosco. Make sure he's keeping you from pushing yourself

too hard.

No, don't say anything to him. He doesn't know.

What? Well, why would I tell him? You tell him everything else. I do not. I

can't cut one in bed without him busting my chops about it for a week after.

But this, you're going to have a procedure? You keep that a secret?

What'd you tell him about the days off? Nothing. I just told him we were going

down the shore for a few days next week.

If you're not 100%, your partner should know about it. It's not like I'm in

pain. What about your head?

You know, emotionally?

Emotionally? At least I can say surgery.

I gotta go.

There you are. You look good today.

Before I forget... What the...

What?

It wasn't an easy decision for me, Kim.

Custody? You want custody?

Keep your voice down. My voice?

What is that, your plan? Do this in front of your friends so I won't make a

thing? No, this is nothing I planned. It's the first time I saw you today.

Soul custody?

If something were to happen to me, Kim, what would happen to Joey? He'll have

his mother.

You're still working things out. Oh, don't patronize me.

You tried to kill yourself.

It was an accident. If you think that justifies taking away my son, you're out

of your mind.

There's other copies. Yeah, well, you can shove those, too.

No, because we don't want to scare her.

Scare her? I might kill her myself.

All right, that's not going to be helpful.

All right, all right.

Five -five, Dave. We definitely got to jump her up. We better get ESU rolling

here with that airbag.

Want me to grab her?

You both go over.

Miss?

Hello, miss?

Police?

Something bothering you?

People never stop.

I'm sorry?

They never stopped walking by.

I don't know what that means.

I don't want to hurt anyone.

Well, that's good.

That's how we should think.

No one's going to get hurt here today.

I was going to do it on the other side.

But there was never an opening.

Because the people never stop.

What's your name, honey? I would have landed.

I don't want to hurt somebody.

Whatever it is that's bothering you so much, I promise we can work it out.

Now I don't know if this is Farina.

My name is Faith.

Faith Yoka.

Farina? Sweetie, what's bothering you today?

It's been bad these last few weeks, huh?

Depressing for all of us.

Why don't you tell me your name, you know, so we can talk. I told you mine.

Tell me your name.

My name doesn't matter.

It matters to me.

I'm already dead.

No, you're not.

You're alive.

And whatever it is that has you feeling like this, we can fix it. I promise you.

So why don't you come down off that ledge and you let me help you fix it,

Is this high enough?

Sweetie, tell me you need it so I can talk to you. If you want to help me,

me! Is this high enough? Please, just tell me you need it. I'm sorry. I put

everyone through this.

You're at a jumper. With a conscience.

Just landed on that roof.

Made a point of avoiding the street. Didn't want to take anybody out with

Imagine the thought process. With a 50 -foot jump. Yeah, she was concerned

that, too, whether she was high enough.

Let's say we have an answer.

Wonderful.

Let's get up there and see.

I'll never get these people.

These people?

Yeah, people who... What?

So, uh, she's up there?

Safe bet she hasn't gone anywhere.

He's a weird guy.

You okay?

Living a dream.

It's all locked up.

Let's go up then. Tower ladder's already here.

Lost the jumper, huh?

That obvious?

All right.

I'm not the one who jumped.

Who was she? She wouldn't tell me.

We know if she lived here.

She wouldn't even tell me your name, Sully.

Address, phone number, favorite color. Those would have been my follow -up

questions.

Can you go in and see if there's a super in the building?

People are going to jump or not jump, you know, no matter what you say. I know

that.

Look at her, rushing around like she's going to be any less dead if they get up

there any sooner.

Chick's a paperweight.

You got a pen?

What the hell is with everybody?

Oh.

Love myself.

Love myself.

Oh. This you don't need.

Guess Bosco was right.

Five floors was high enough.

She landed on her head.

She's coming up behind us.

She's going to cut her off. She probably doesn't need to see this. Yeah, all

right.

Poor kid.

What a waste.

She's alive.

What?

Get out

of the way. Maybe you can stay back on it, please.

All right?

Her lungs are working. At least one is.

She's alive!

Move.

I'm going to intubate. Start two large force.

There's brains.

Brains got nothing to do with blood flow. Give me.

If I can get her stabilized, I'm going to need to get her down. We need the

strokes up here right away.

Must be the maid's day off.

Never had nothing like this happen here before.

Got a driver's license.

Let me see that.

It's a quiet building.

Constance Marie Waller? Yeah, yeah.

Connie. That's it.

Connie.

I got three units available.

This is gonna make it a bitch to rent them. You're pretty selfish. You're not

thinking that she was gonna mess up your day and all. Hey, come on.

I got feelings.

I'm just saying.

Don't worry about it. This city is so full of freaks that we rent this place

just because of something like this.

Think so?

Oh, yeah. No doubt.

So no reason you'd see this coming?

Like, if she lost anybody?

I don't know.

She and her husband kept pretty much to themselves.

Where's the husband?

You don't know about this yet?

Do you know where you can find him?

Oh, jeez.

I think he works in a restaurant. He manages a restaurant on the west side. I

got his phone number downstairs.

You want to come with me? Yeah, thanks.

Sorry, Connie.

All right.

Locked in? Yep. All right, careful.

She's alive?

Can't be. Medics are just playing doctor.

Doc? Half her head's gone. I don't know.

The brainstem must still be working. We got something.

Hey, we need some help over here. Leave him alone. Got it.

Somebody bag her. Got it.

He's bagging her.

Where's my son? Let's just get over there.

Well, what are we going to do? Sully,

have you reached the husband?

No, we're picking him up at work. What did you tell him?

Well, I thought we'd leave that for the hospital.

Good, because she's alive.

Get him here fast.

Name, address, date of birth.

License doesn't give you a lot of information.

As long as there's enough to fill out a police report, I'm satisfied.

Yeah, but it doesn't tell you much about a person.

Well, how much more do you need to know?

What made her so damaged?

Damaged? You should take a number.

What?

You're damaged?

How many people do we know who would give anything to be breathing right now?

Wife and kids at home?

No husband, no father?

Here comes the stupid selfie.

I got no sympathy.

Yeah, man.

I'm going to get wide open.

Rest is up below ten.

Kim, take over.

There's not much there.

Oh, come on.

I still can't believe there's anything there.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Hey, sisterly.

Grab the infuser.

Jimmy, step on it. We're losing her back here. Hang on.

Are you an organ donor?

Still using them.

Oh, I mean, did you check the box on the back of your license?

No. I don't want them looking at me like a bunch of spare parts.

Makes me wonder if they'll try as hard.

You know?

She checked off any organ needed.

Yeah, I wonder if she knew she was going to squish herself if she signed it.

Doesn't make a lot of sense, does it? No.

Not really.

But does it look like they're not trying?

Approximately 25 -year -old female attempted suicide.

Jumped 50 feet onto a tar roof.

Massive head trauma with protrusion of gray matter.

Arrested in the bus.

CPR times three minutes. Three lines of saline rapidly infused through three

large bores. BP 60 palp sinus attack at 110.

No carotid pulse.

Breath sounds decreased on the right. Everybody set on my count. One, two,

three.

Take neurosurgery now.

Two units O -neg in the rapid infuser. Spin a crit and a CBC chem panel typing

across eight units.

Is she alive?

Barely. But she made it here.

Yeah. Sally's going to get the husband.

We're not wasting any time.

I'm going to go clean up.

Unbelievable.

Well, she meets every criteria of a brain death protocol.

And ordinarily I'd wait, but since it's such a small portion of the brain that's

left... Is she gone?

Well, I seem to take her off the vent. Yeah.

She was strong, huh? Oh, very.

Unbelievable. And one day you're going to have to let me know I kept it going

long enough to get her in here. I doubt I would have even tried.

You said it yourself, she was strong. Still, we couldn't have done better in

trauma unit.

It was nice work.

Is there a next of kin?

I'd like to talk to him before we call it. Husband's on the way down now. All

right, then. She's an organ donor.

Oh, that's what I was going to ask the husband. How do you know? Because she

signed on the back here and she checked off any organ needed.

Well, she's a prime candidate.

So we're going to have to get the husband's permission.

The signature and the license only indicates the patient's intent.

You know, I'm going to get the transplant coordinator down here to get

process started.

Excuse me.

This is Walter's husband.

Is she all right? Mr. Wall, I'm Dr. Thomas.

Is Connie all right? Why don't you come with me?

What'd you tell him? Not much, except she had an accident.

That's all.

Understatement of the year.

What organs can they use? Why, threatening a new liver or something?

Waiting lists are a mile long. I'm sure she's got something somebody can use.

Yeah, it's probably some rich guy.

Two you always read about in the news.

Mickey Mantle, Walter Payton.

What, you're going to tell me those guys didn't receive preferential treatment?

Walter Payton died waiting on the list.

I'm just saying, Doc. Yes, you are, as usual.

Man, you were really touchy today. Well, go find someone to beat up.

That hurts.

What are you up to?

I'm cleaning up.

You lost?

No.

Yogesh has a wild hair up her ass today.

Trying to stay clear of the hurricane.

She's taking all this real personal.

Pretty bizarre, huh?

I thought for sure she was toast when she jumped off that roof.

Jumped five floors, still had enough left to get her to the hospital.

Clogging her for an hour didn't do her much good.

Guess not. She ended up in the same place.

I, uh... I owe you a thank you.

Good. I can use one. You're the only one not walking on eggshells without me

handling a suicide.

Everyone acts like I'm going to freak out from my accident. I don't know how

many times I have to say that I wasn't trying to, you know... At least you

treat me like I'm damaged goods.

Yeah, you seem all right to me.

Also, I, uh...

I wanted to thank you. No problem.

I'm going to head back in, though. I'll see you later.

Yep. Absolutely.

Yeah.

I'm looking for Paramedic Parker.

Yes, ma 'am.

Grace Owens, transplant coordinator.

The nurse's station told me you're the paramedic supervisor in this area. I'm

the senior man, yes.

What did the husband say? He gave consent to use the organs.

Two things.

There's an eight -year -old girl in Yorkville that needs an ambulance to

her to St. Christopher's Hospital as soon as possible.

That's the nearest transplant center. She's top of the list for a heart, and

she's not in good shape.

I can arrange that. What's the other? I need you to transfer the heart there as

well. Excuse me? The husband signed consent to donate the heart, but we

have a lot of time.

They're in recovery now, but this little girl is very sick. Minutes count. I

don't want to wait for a transport car with you already here.

Well, I can radio in and get another bus to cover our area. It shouldn't be too

long. How bad off is this little girl?

She's been on the list since last year.

Hit the top position about a week ago, but it's day to day. Is this lady's

going to fit into a kid?

Mrs. Waller was pretty petite, but the most important thing is she's the same

blood type.

So she could save a life.

If the little girl is still alive.

Parents didn't want her to die in the hospital, so they took her home

No. No, I understand, but... Well, I'm the one that's pre -med. Shouldn't I be

the one to carry the... No.

Right.

No, I understand.

What's the big job? Lucky bastard.

Doc's transporting a heart to St. Christopher's for a transplant.

So what do they need us to do? Get the recipient there.

Some kid up in Yorkville.

As a heart attack.

No pun intended.

Let's go.

Mr. Waller, I'm Officer Yoka.

Faith Yoka.

Are you the one that was there?

The cops had brought me in. They said there was another police officer with

when she got hurt.

Yeah, I was there.

Did she say?

Yeah, she said she was sorry and that she loves you very much.

She did.

Yeah, she said that it was important that you know that.

I have, um, iconic driver's license.

I knew she was unhappy.

She used to spend days at a time in bed.

I thought she'd get over it.

I didn't know.

If somebody wants to do something like this, no one can really stop them.

She didn't even drive.

I mean, she knew how, but we never had a car.

You know, somebody's awful lucky that she had that.

It'd be nice to know who.

They said it was confidential.

It's a little girl.

Eight years old, up in Yorkville.

Pretty sick.

Yeah. They said that she'll die without it.

I think you're very brave, Mr. Waller.

You and Connie both.

I don't know if I can be that brave.

I just wanted to tell you that.

And that I'm sorry for your loss.

Try 106?

Get stuck on one of those streets.

Come on!

Get down!

I almost forgot how stupid people are about this.

Come on.

Damn it.

Nothing's moving for a long way.

Oh, oh, Doc.

Give me some eyes. All right. A little left.

A little more left.

Damn. A little left.

A little left.

We're never going to clear that. A little left.

I don't have any more left.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm going to need you to back up, all right? Just stay right there.

Back up.

Back up for me. You got to get out of here. Back up.

Lady, hey, where are you going?

No. Hey.

I need you to back up, okay?

You got to look outside.

is gone there ain't nothing in those bags relax man i ain't gonna lie to you

don't have to hurt me you don't have to mean the worst i said i'm not gonna lie

to you start talking all right all right truthfully yeah

truthfully please i don't really know this guy and his sons

of bitches they clean out our bus and now he's gonna let that little kid die

is to find that heart, and if we don't, I'm taking yours. What heart? Look,

buddy, you don't want to take the wrath of the murders all alone, do you?

Murder? You moron stole a heart that was being taken to a hospital to be

transplanted into a little girl. It's dying. And if your actions prevent that

operation from happening, that's a murder on your ass. Oh.

Look, I'm just... I got a habit. I ain't no murderer. Not yet.

There was a heart in that ambulance.

Where are they? Right. See, now you pissed him off. Right.

Look, if I show you where we hang out...

Are we all cool? I mean, with the murder and everything?

Of

course.

That's the building. They're inside?

I don't know. It's where we were supposed to meet up. How many ways in

Just the front door.

No other way? I never knew no other way.

Back up.

This is 55 Charlie requesting backup at... 5207.

5207 Arthur.

Your pals better be inside there. Hey, all I'm saying is we were supposed to

meet up here. Yeah, all I'm saying is you better pray they did.

There's no way.

No way is not enough.

Look, I'm not saying we don't try.

I'm saying that there's no way we're going to get her down on these steps.

Let's just get up there.

Little girl with a bad heart, you'd think the parents could at least get a

ground floor apartment.

Yeah, or maybe something on Park Avenue with a doorman and a freight elevator.

You know what I'm saying.

Yeah, I do.

You always just carry her in my arms.

Dean Martin?

Saw that coming.

Boss.

You gotta be kidding me.

He's empty.

Okay, okay, we're caught.

Where's the heart? What?

There was a heart in this box. Where is it? What box? That box. This is not the

time for wise guy power.

Manny said there'd be a... You know, we were looking for drugs.

I don't give a damn what you thought you were doing. There's a human being's

heart in that box, and I want it.

There's some stuff in the cans out back.

You know, in a crack house, it's the only damn station that comes in.

This way.

She's not breathing so well.

Hang on, baby. Help is here.

Hi.

You're Cassandra?

My name's Carlos.

We're going to drive you to the hospital.

Is that all right with you?

We just need to check some things out first, okay?

Wow, bet you can't wait to get rid of all this stuff, huh?

Hold on, okay?

If we don't keep our plot, we're going to lose those bilateral pick lines. I

know.

So I guess we just have to bring her down the old -fashioned way.

This is Boy 553.

We're going to need some help over here.

What the hell is this book to look like? I think we'll know when we see it,

Tully. Bosco, you want to help out a little bit? No, I don't, David.

But I will.

A little bit.

David, I think you need to take... Damn it! You watch!

What'd you get?

I don't know what else it could be. Doesn't look like they opened it. Does

matter? I don't know.

This is 55 Charlie.

Let the medics know we found the package they lost.

Okay, Cassandra. Nothing tells me you don't scare so easy. So listen to me

like a ride.

Okay? Ready?

Willing and able.

Hey, what a beauty.

Oh, wait a minute. No one told me we had a princess here.

Hello, Your Majesty.

Precious cargo coming down.

You're doing fine, Your Highness.

Yeah.

Are you sure you're not a queen?

Or a movie star?

Thanks, Jimmy. You're cool. We're out to hide.

Central, this is 55 Charlie.

Have you got an ETA on the medics for this package?

Working on it, Charlie. Come on! How long do you think we've got?

No.

That used to be part of a person.

Pretty creepy if you ask me.

Sally, why can't we just take it?

And they're going to St.

Christopher's, right? Seems like we can get up there faster than waiting for a

bus to get here. And you don't have to know anything to handle it? What? Just

keep it on ice.

How are they transporting you? Just sit in the back of the bus, as far as I

know.

Well, why can't we?

We still got this pinhead in the back of our car, for one thing. No problem.

No problem.

Pinhead.

Let's go.

You thank me later, you're free.

I can go?

Go, now.

Hey, just say no.

We're all clear.

Okay. I'll carry it. Davis and I will run interference for you.

You better not slow down, Sully. I'll be up your ass. You just try to keep up

with my ass, Bosco. 5 -5 Charlie to Central. Tell the medics to meet us at

Christopher. We're going to transport this package ourselves.

It's a weird winter sport, Tuesday at 7.

Call Central, see if you can get us some help.

Central, we're going to run up 7. Can we get any assistance with intersection

control?

Move, move.

Great, keep them moving.

Keep the deep box going.

Damn, old Sully's got some serious lead in that foot.

Does he think he's Popeye Doyle?

You ever see Friends Connection?

Okay, see? Stay awake.

Open your eyes for me, Cassandra.

Wake up, baby.

Almost there. Cassandra, you've got to keep those eyes open. Stay in your seat.

Stay in your seat. You've got some great hands as long as you... Whoa!

Shut up!

Hey, there's those beautiful brown eyes.

Good, Cass.

Good. Keep your eyes on me, okay?

We've got to turn somewhere. I know.

The lights are against us. I know.

Does Stoney know?

All right, you better slow down if we're going to make this turn. No. Slow down

if we're going to make this turn. Stop.

Stop.

No, no, no. She's throwing PVPs.

Baby? Nick, talk to me, Carlos. They're all over the place.

Lidocaine? Already got them to make them a pipe.

She's stabilizing, but it might not last.

Hang on, baby. Hang on.

Taylor, how much further?

Next turn.

Both 110.

Hunter, take that seat on board.

Doc?

Yes, ma 'am.

Doc, you're up.

Thank you.

How could I forget that?

I'm going on and on about someone trying to kill themselves, and all the time

I'm talking to someone who actually tried it.

What is wrong with me?

Could it be you're self -absorbed?

No.

That's not it. I just forgot.

That's all. I mean, it's no big deal, right?

Now I'm supposed to remember every little thing that happens at the

Yeah.

Every little thing.

All right, her trying to dust herself is kind of a big thing, but the truth is I

hardly know her.

You don't have to justify it to me. I didn't give her a thought either.

Really?

You didn't?

None.

Good.

Good. Then I'm okay then.

Huh.

You kind of took this whole thing personal.

Not really.

Yeah, you seem like it's bothering you.

No, I just never really gave organ donation that much thought before.

It's kind of like Connie has a second chance to live.

One of her parts is in the girl. It's not her.

Well, it sort of makes someone immortal, doesn't it? Yeah, well, big man

willing, it'll be a long time before we have to start thinking about giving any

pieces away.

Going home?

Some of us are going to stop at Hagerty's. If there's any mention of the

girl on the news.

I called the hospital. They wouldn't give me any information.

Yeah, we're always last to know.

Ain't that all?

Why don't you come with us?

Yeah. Yeah, I think I will.

Probably wouldn't be able to get any sleep until I knew anyway.

Is there something else?

I did okay today, right? You did great. And I didn't hesitate and knew what to

do? Kim, you were fine.

You know, you feel like you might have forgotten everything.

Well, it's like riding a bike.

It was an accident.

Excuse me? No one believes that the overdose was an accident.

Hey, that's what everyone says.

Okay, Kim, and we understand, Kim, but they don't believe it.

When Jimmy's standing on the edge of the roof today, like he doesn't think I

should see an attempted suicide, I can handle that from him, but I just need to

be sure you believe me.

You do believe me, right, Doc?

You know I wouldn't try to kill myself.

Yeah. Yeah.

I believe you.

And it's all right?

Yeah.

I'll see you at the bar.

Yeah, yeah. Let me just finish up here.

live where a dedicated team of doctors at St. Christopher's Hospital repeated a

heart transplant tonight on an 8 -year -old girl.

Dr. Henry Bolton, the lead surgeon in the delicate operation, gave a brief

statement only moments ago that the little girl, Cassandra Reynolds, came

through the operation well and the heart is working perfectly.

We have with us Doreen Reynolds, young Cassandra's mother.

What can you tell us about Cassandra's condition?

She's sleeping now.

There's so many people to thank.

I just don't even know where to begin.

The donor and these doctors, I really don't know how to... Thank you so much

for giving me my little girl back.

Well, there you have it. This is Karen Lee at St. Christopher's Hospital. Back

to you in the studio.

To the doctors.

To the doctors.

To the doctors.

To the doctors.

Where are you going?

I want to get home.

You all right?

Yeah.

You sure?

Yeah, I'm good.

See you tomorrow.

What's wrong with her?
