Joanne?

Oh.

You're the one who moved back to Seattle.

Well, I miss you and the kids.

I can't leave.

Well, because there is nothing... Joanne, there is... Joanne... Oh.

Oh, Celia, uh, will you make sure Judge Farnham gets his morphine on time?

Okay?

Good night.

Elliot.

- See you later Carol. - Uh huh.

I've never been this tired.

You'll still get another 24 hours.

Falling asleep on my feet.

Dream a little dream for me.

You heard?

Yes, just caught me on my way out.

The cage operator called me, said it was an emergency.

What went wrong?

Don't know yet.

Gotta get down there.

Is there?

Jackie and I checked on her an hour ago.

She was fine.

Where's this damn thing?

How could a condition change so quickly?

Let's take the stairs.

Here, sir!

Sorry, sorry, this car's an express.

What happened?

BP's dropping.

I tried raising heart rate to 120 beats, but she's not responding.

Is she dead?

Are there other vitals?

She's stable.

There's no indication why the Craig 9000 is not pumping enough blood.

Output seems fine and dandy takes a sudden dive.

Might be a leak in the vent like the one that killed Mr. Spooner.

Do you want a metacrit and x-rays?

Sir?

I'll draw blood.

I got a portable X-ray.

Wait.

You hear something?

What?

Shh.

Get a roll colotape, two inches.

Small tear right through the plastic.

Hose must have snagged on the cage.

Here you go.

I told that weenie Werner to bar these edges.

Should have done it myself in the first place.

Responding already, sir.

BP's coming back to normal.

Yeah, that should hold until we replace the compressor line.

I really thought we were going to lose her.

No, no, no.

We won't do that, will we?

You're going to be all right.

That's right, my little girl.

You're going to be fine.

Paulette!

Hello, Helen.

Today at lunch you had two slices of pecan pie.

I love southern cooking.

Well, so do I, but how do you stay so thin?

Kevin and the kids are in Washington, now I'm alone.

I never feel like going out, and I'm a terrible cook.

So I eat one meal here.

Good.

You must miss your husband.

Christmas together was an overdue reunion, even with the last minute running around shopping.

It was nice to be back in a noisy house.

When we were first married, I hated being home alone without Mark.

After a while, I learned to appreciate the quiet.

When are you going to court?

Day after tomorrow.

All these months waiting.

Suddenly the date is staring me in the face.

When you're out from under your divorce and my schedule lightens, we should have dinner.

Cajun food, I know just the place.

John, you got back tonight after all.

What a to-do.

Corporate jets down in Latin America had to surrender and fly commercial.

Paulette, welcome home and good night.

So, how did it go in Missouri?

At least the shareholders are happy.

Tomorrow, we're unveiling the corporation's new name.

Oh, what is it?

Don't ask.

Wasn't my first choice.

Well, I missed you.

Intensive care,

Hispanic mental health, audiology, cool,

I didn't notice that the lights had changed.

What are you looking at?

You notice this hallway seems brighter.

Glaring, almost.

What was I doing?

Oh, yeah.

Dr. Flynn Kirkpatrick, Dr. Flynn Kirkpatrick, ICU.

What are you reading?

New Testament.

You ever glance at the Gospels?

Hospitals.

Gee, you know, I knew I forgot to do something.

I never took religion seriously before, but Jesus is either

who he said he was or he's the greatest con man who ever lived.

I said are the Greeks for they shall inhibit their girth.

Hello, Cleo.

What's on the tally?

I haven't even checked.

Station must have signed off, which is what I'm about to do, and I've given you atropine.

What's that for?

Surgery.

I need you to roll up your sleeves.

I'm not having surgery.

You're not?

I'm here for a myelogram, Dr. Thorpe.

Well, then you certainly don't need this.

Um, I don't know how I could have... After.

You run a full course of antibiotics, get back on a normal diet, I'll discharge you.

Since you told me I had Huntington's disease, disease.

Fixing my gallbladder doesn't seem very important.

Mrs. Callen, Huntington's moved slowly.

It's likely that it'll be a number of years before the symptoms become debilitating.

Do you have children, Dr. Morrison?

A son, two step kids.

And you know what I'm going through with David and Annie taking that test tomorrow, don't you?

Neither of them are symptomatic now.

Children have been an afflicted parent of a 50% chance of not carrying the gene.

Oh, but if they do, they'll wake up every morning of their lives knowing they'll die a horrible death.

And I will be responsible, won't I?

The disease is genetic.

There is nothing that you or anyone can do about that.

You work every day of your life.

Life, trying to keep your children safe.

Give them everything you possibly can.

I just didn't think my illness would be a part of that legacy.

Victor.

In a minute.

This is ridiculous.

We're married.

I have a bashful bladder.

I'm a nurse.

You're a doctor.

You're just trying to avoid our discussion.

I'm very worried about you.

Working all those hours, never getting enough sleep.

I still can't believe you don't like my toothpaste.

And what about our baby?

Seven weeks along, fetus the size of an M &M, plain, not even peanut.

That's why we should start planning now.

The baby's gonna be here before you know it.

So will tomorrow morning.

Ow!

Your child deserves a father who will be healthy and who can spend a little time at home.

We've got 33 more weeks to discuss this, okay?

Mmm, minty fresh.

Please step.

On the scale.

Your weight is 121 pounds.

You have gained three pounds.

33 weeks to go.

I'm going to be the size of the Hindenburg.

Have a nice day.

The poor woman kind of makes me dizzy but thanks for inviting me to come along

Catherine is much for the kinetic arms I'm expanding my horizons already ready.

La Mission Obreon, 1945.

Lafitte Rothschild, 1928.

Some of the finest wines in the world, one can only hope they're not real.

This whole place is unreal.

The essence of art is to raise us to heights of reality, self-awareness stripping away our conventional barriers.

Emerging of intellect, emotion, sexuality.

I never thought of it that way.

It's printed here on the program.

Who did you say invited you?

Alex Corey, the man who painted my portrait.

And there he is.

Ah, Dr. Auslander, Carpe Diem.

Same to you, Mr. Corey.

Quite an extravaganza you've got here.

Makes one dizzy, doesn't it?

That's what I said.

Man fused with art.

With technology.

With... Old.

Method was oil in the canal.

It's too slow.

Now we go with a squirt of Lidocaine.

Hey, Fiscus.

Hang on, Mr. Hattie.

But this is a first for me.

Where have you been?

Little Bighorn?

Gallery.

Shooting?

Art.

Nice to meet you, Art.

Alex, Corey.

I rode along in an ambulance.

VPs 90 over 60, pulses 110.

We started a line normal saline.

Okay, couldn't cross match three units.

Aren't you the guy that painted Auschlander's portrait?

My initial inertia period.

Tonight he was doing his performance piece.

I guess things didn't go that well, huh?

My responsibility is to lead, to Blaze trails into new territory.

Sorry, oh!

Tough being an artist.

If it's easy, where's the point?

Penetrating your abdominal wall.

We're gonna have to remove this in OR.

Louie?

See you later, Mr. Corey.

Ready?

Okay, little dab oughta do ya?

Let's just hope you didn't start a family.

Whoa!

Rain!

The incision is healing nicely.

Experiencing any more discomfort?

Bl Hunt, buncombe, liver transplant, internal Kings, uterine cancer,

transplants of the crown of the loose, pulmonary paroxysmal musste, amenorrhea,

renal cirrhosis, don't repeat after me during serial diagnosis, auto-evulsive vascular upset, photo diagnostic.

Last month, I was on edge for that.

I didn't mean to jump on you.

I'm sorry you felt I was invading your privacy.

When I found the lump, I became so frightened and anxious, I started looking

for peace of mind in the medicine chest, which explains why you found so many drugs in my urinalysis.

I was concerned about you.

Of course you were.

But you don't have to be anymore.

I appreciate the work you performed on the liaison committee, especially after your cancer was diagnosed.

It took guts.

Wish I could have been of more help.

Daniel, I thought you paraded already through here this morning.

That was yesterday.

See you later, Judge.

I have to get ready for the sign raising.

Corporation never would have lost that trademark, Senator.

How did you sleep last night not well every bone in my body feels under siege

will increase your morphine now for the bad news latest prognosis Elliot the

cancer is spreading from the pancreas progression appears to

be fairly rapid and it's infiltrated the aorta and the spine.

Kovac, geriatric surgery, We've been through this in counseling sessions with Mom.

You want to go first?

Mm-mm.

After seeing what Mom's been going through, how can you be so prepared for a test like this?

I don't see there's any other choice.

And Paula?

Still gonna marry?

We've talked about it.

Need more time.

Can't answer that overnight.

Annie, why don't you have a seat?

Emergency.

Just leave.

I can't.

How'd you get past security?

I slipped Andy a cruller.

Andy?

The guard.

He comes to the cafeteria every day.

Anyway, he knows who I am and he let me in.

Yeah, well, that's exactly what happened to the Marines in Moscow.

整形ゴブ.

So sweet, such a lamb!

Oh, it's too bad she can't run free Crying out loud anyway Flash doesn't like to be

petted that way here She likes being scratched right here on the brisket You

two are really attached Was there a reason you came down here Just to tell you that I

was bothered about what happened last night in the lobby.

Well, I'm sure it's none of my business what you do.

Yes, but... You can kiss whomever you want.

Even if he is a stiff.

I just wanted you to know you're seeing us.

I feel badly.

But he see you tonight at the appraisal I guess uh Andy will let you out huh Mr.

Corey mr Corey mr Corey she should be in bed resting I do not have the energy to

rest you were at the gallery you witnessed my defeat I gotta be honest with you.

If that's art, it makes gang-fighting in my neighborhood look like the Bolshoi.

That's precisely my point.

It's so rare that creativity approaches the essential power and drama of reality.

I've never even come close to touching what you do here.

The art of medicine, healing, shock therapy, therapy.

You're going Dutch?

I'm on a staff meal plan, remember?

Oh, even better.

You're welcome.

Thanks for not bugging me about the Hawaiian chips.

I'm through riding you.

Does that mean we have to stop doing that rodeo thing?

No, at least until I'm close to term.

Get your mind out of the hay.

I meant your diet, health, workload.

You're not worried, fine, but I'm making adjustments in my life for the baby.

I'm taking precautions, cautions around infectious patients,

laying off the coffee and donuts, looking out for radioactivity.

Now that you mention it, maybe you shouldn't be working here.

Let's not get crazy, but I have to do what I think's right.

Variable term, 500 thou.

Whose life is it anyway?

Yours.

Signed.

I want to find out if I have the genes so I can get on with my life.

Uh-uh.

You want to find out you don't have it, same as anyone.

Great.

I watch mom doing this.

Dropping the keys, following where the customers change.

Loss of coordination is always the first sign.

Annie, have the test.

All our lives we were encouraged to face things, confront problems, not be afraid of what we might discover.

I think you're making a mistake.

David, the counselor said it's up to us.

I have a right not to be tested.

You have no idea what this decision means to me, so just lay off.

What does Michael think?

You haven't told him.

He's your husband.

How can you keep something like this from me?

Pregnant.

And that means that the baby might have the disease too.

I don't see why our appearance in court is even necessary.

Massachusetts is a crusty old commonwealth, wouldn't think of giving up our formalities.

Surprised that Mark is letting you have the house though.

My lawyer says between tax problems and having to liquidate other assets is the

only thing that makes sense financially, unless we both agreed to sell.

And neither of Anything to keep some sense of the past and the things that flourished because of your relationship.

I was so intent on just turning my back and walking away from Mark.

Never occurred to me that I might have second thoughts.

While the corporation that owns St. Eligius was forced to change its name,

our goals haven't changed.

With the raising of this banner and today's opening of the new chemical

dependency unit, we continue our commitment to this community.

And now with the completion of the parking garage, we're ready to break ground on a modern medical office complex.

Clinic.

Maybe we've already broken ground.

Anyway, St. Eligius is now a part of... St. Eligius is now a Weigert hospital.

What the hell's going on?

Parking truck.

What about it?

It collapsed.

Steps.

Be.

Careful in there.

Watch your head on the rafters.

If he knocks himself out, we'll have even more legal problems.

Don't distract him, Ellen.

We're almost finished.

Although I'm not going to make it back in time to check on Flash.

Well, go ahead, Mark.

I'll stay.

And leave you alone with him?

The man's hand was moist when I shook it.

Heart.

Authentic Georgian partners.

I know.

Never could find the right spot for it.

I should keep looking.

Collecting a lot of dust up here.

Could we just get on with it?

$3,000?

I paid nearly $1,500 for this piece 20 years ago.

Ellen, what we paid in the past is beside the point.

Let's just get through this.

But Mark, that was a lot of money.

Clinical therapy,

surgery for women, surgical surgery for men, physical therapy.

How many victims from the parking structure collapsed?

So far, so good.

Zero.

All available personnel are standing by.

Let's hope it's a good sign that there were a few people inside.

Let's hope so.

Emergency crews are working around the clock.

Hang in there.

Sir, what about our cars?

The entire structure and everything inside is a complete loss.

We'll all be filling out a lot of insurance forms.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm getting great pleasure on seeing

John Gideon's house of cards come tumbling down.

Whoa!

I'm dressing here.

Come on, we're married men.

Maybe she'll change her mind.

Oh, no way.

Well, I'm going to sleep.

I might as well UN-dress in bed.

I'm talking about Annie Callen.

The advances in genetic research.

I don't know if we're ready.

Soon we'll be able to detect Alzheimer's, cystic fibrosis.

Diagnosis.

Who wants to find out what they're going to die of 30 years from now?

Before the baby, I didn't give it a second thought, but now I wish I had more medical history on my relatives.

Women in my family get fat by 40.

You've been here a year.

You're still going to play peekaboo?

I like a little privacy.

Look at me and Joanne.

It's hard enough living apart, but if one of us found out that we were

passing an illness on to our children, you know, I'd hate not seeing my kid graduate from med school.

Okay.

Okay, so he doesn't have to be a doctor.

Still, I just want him to be healthy.

Oh boy, I promised the babysitter I'd be home, but now I gotta run.

Me too.

Bye-bye.

Night, Carol.

Night.

I forgot my bag.

I'll remember this moment the rest of my life.

The structure and everything in it has been declared a total loss.

On a positive note, there have been no confirmed reports of any injuries or... Everything good.

How are you feeling?

Like I'd rather be crushed in that parking structure.

Turn it off.

Really, I can't lift my arms.

You know what?

I am absolutely addicted to the Home Shopping Network.

It's much more fun than mail order.

It reminds me.

They sent away for new judicial robes a few months ago.

Paid for them, too.

That was a mistake.

In England, judges still wear wigs, even if they're Tories.

Injuries.

I'm sorry.

I thought you'd be off duty by now.

Short-staffed, as usual.

Nursing's out of vogue.

I can't even fill the vacancies in my training program.

Probably all becoming corporate lawyers.

My profession used to be so much more respected.

There you go.

Oh, morphine.

My fix.

Good night, Judge.

Why didn't you tell us sooner?

I haven't even told Michael.

I wanted to surprise him when he got back in town, but with all this... We need some good news.

Good news?

Mom, what if I have Huntington's?

But you have to be tested before you know that.

If I have the gene, my baby has a 50-50 chance of having it too.

Yes, but maybe he won't.

Parents aren't allowed to test minors.

Orthodontist, we have no way of knowing until he was an adult.

And until then, Mom, what do I say?

I don't know.

I sit here all day long trying to think of something to say to you and your brother.

Then you understand my reluctance in not wanting to do the same in 20 years.

I'm considering not having the baby.

Don't sit there like that, Judge, and I am not judging you.

I was just remembering.

When I was pregnant with David, I was having a lot of trouble sleeping.

So the doctor prescribed a sedative called thalidomide.

Later on, we found that it caused great birth defects, but we didn't know for sure.

Naturopathy, emergency procedures, medical care, emergency surgery,

paediatric surgery, gastric surgery, hemostasis surgery, Don't be.

Mr. Corey, you shouldn't be out here.

I'm trying to sensitize myself to my surroundings.

And you?

During heavy snowfalls, I like to check my bulbs.

I planted some tulips in the fall.

I don't like to let the ice build up.

You're tampering with nature.

We all need a hand now and again.

Then where is the struggle?

Surgical, the conflict, what is the purpose of my work, my life?

Why don't you come inside?

Am I nothing but flotsam, lost amid the other jetsam eddying about the universe?

With no discernible purpose other than to clog the energy drain?

Mr. Cora, you're not fit to be lying there.

I must find a way to continue, to go further.

You've come to St. Eligius twice before.

Each time, you've taken less joy in your work.

My kingdom for a single moment of inspiration.

Flap your arms.

Swing your legs.

What?

Your arms and legs.

Move them.

Like this.

Go ahead.

That's it.

Good.

Good.

Now, get up.

An angel in the snow.

No, childlike, spontaneous, but ephemeral.

A moment caught in time, yet even now beginning to fade away.

An angel.

That's it.

Thank you, Dr. Auschlander.

I'm freezing my butt off.

That's it.

Court's adjourned.

Patient.

At least he's not suffering anymore.

Why isn't there a pump on this to regulate the morphine drip?

I ordered one.

Four milligrams morphine per hour.

Well, it looks like he's had at least 50.

Do you think somebody removed it?

More likely the nurse who hung this thing forgot to hook one up.

50 milligrams morphine per hour?

What a way to go knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door.

Who was the RN?

Doesn't say.

Somebody's responsible for killing the judge.

Well, that little lunk of head is finally gone.

Same dewy handshake on the way out.

Only room in the house with any real value.

Aside from the desk, he didn't make a single notation.

Sixth game of the 75 World Series.

Three of us went together.

It's the only time you ever took Stephen to a ball game.

Thought we'd have fun.

Oh, Mark, you got the tickets from some grateful patient.

Patient.

Donald Westphall was jealous, so the only reason we went was so that you could rub his nose in it.

Worked, too.

Boy, what a game.

I'll never forget it.

Bottom of the 12th, all tied up.

Pudge Fisk at the plate.

He swings.

We can hear the crack of the bat.

We all held our breath watching that ball.

Going, going, gone.

All the way home, you boys kept singing the praises of pinch hitter Bernie Carbo, unsung hero.

Bernie Carbo, that's good, Ellen.

Very good.

Shame they had to go ahead and lose it the next night.

Oh, well.

They lose it every year.

Maybe next season.

To the left still like being on stage at the Orpheum a moment of your time what is it now Mr.

Corey I have been up all night with a fever in my brain and a pain in my

heart you should have buzzed one of the nurses would have given you something I

was speaking metaphorically so was he but now I have seen the light it's still too

bright oh yes that's good this afternoon in the solarium I am putting on a performance piece all are welcome to.

Pd2, I've been commuted since the gas shortage of 76.

It was 73, and there's no shortage of gas around here.

Farnham.

How is he?

Dead and dead.

Somebody OD'd him on pain medication.

I smell the handiwork of one of your crack nurses in training.

Nice going.

Look at that mess.

OSHA investigators suspect lift slab constructions to blame.

Ran into the same problem before.

We're fortunate there were so few injuries.

Far as we know, Cruz will be digging for a week.

But with time and this cold weather, anybody else trapped in there?

Paulette.

I need a minute.

I'll leave.

Oh, by the way, Weigert Hospitals owes me a Thunderbird with all the options.

I'll be leaving shortly for a divorce court.

My daughter watches that show all the time, here's a list of my patients and

thank you for covering, I wouldn't trust Oliver London to trim Flash's hooves,

oh listen, do you happen to know the room Farnham's in, he died last night,

oh, too bad, I wanted his read on this Judge Don Levy, apparently Kingman Books

looked the store over and liked the location, They're interested in an outright bath?

I don't know how long I can keep the place running, but this is just too sudden.

Annie?

She said so.

Don't speak for me.

Mama, it just wouldn't be the same without you.

A different name?

Of course.

They're a chain.

No more Callan's books, huh?

Do we have to talk about this now?

Annie, relax.

Anything you say, David.

You had the gene test, and tomorrow you'll know the answer.

Believe me, it does not help to worry.

How can you be such a dope?

Please.

Both of you.

Mrs. Callan, I'm here to discharge you.

David, we need to talk.

My test results?

There's no need for privacy.

Before I tell you, your brother's results have no bearing on what the outcome for you might be.

Emergency.

You tested positive.

That means what?

In all probability, you have the gene.

Oh.

Oh, God.

Are you sure it's okay to be down here?

I have a research clearance pass.

Plus, Dr. Warner said I could bring you in.

Where exactly are we?

Okay.

You know, the past couple days, we've been talking about our health,

you know, what's ahead for us and our kid, or kids.

With this, we'll never liver part company.

Victor, we have a water heater.

No, no, no, cryonics tank.

Weigert's heavily into icicle people.

If I die an untimely death, you know, due to some unknown illness without a cure.

...

You get frozen inside that?

Then they thaw me out once they find a cure.

I come back, a chance to surf Rincon with our great-greats.

And what about me?

Twin pops, together forever.

Have you lost your mind?

Okay, I'll admit it's not perfected yet.

And so far Weigert's only frozen this one guy.

But think about it.

A hundred years from now, Leonard Gagwell might still be alive.

Victor, the other night when we were talking, I didn't mean that we should be around here forever.

I just want you here now, healthy and happy.

Do you know what really worries me?

I look at Craig, I see the pressure he's under, the way he's screwed up with his wife and kid.

Homejob, childcare, off seeking, maternity leave, etc.

This is quite serious.

His death is the direct result of a nurse's negligence.

Why is the finger suddenly pointed at me?

Why do I come under fire?

You are director of nurses in training.

Daniel, I really appreciate your concern.

I'm sure we both appreciate the seriousness of this error.

I want a full investigation and report as to how something like this could have happened.

Of course.

Course.

We could try to reassure ourselves that Thornton was in a great deal of pain.

He's going to die soon anyway.

We cannot deny the implications for the quality of our health care.

John, you're not listening.

You have to cancel dinner tonight.

That's fine.

I understand.

Not sure when we'll be through at the courthouse.

You know, You know, last night with the appraiser, I told myself I wasn't going to

let it bother me, but watching someone itemize your life is... Good idea, actually.

What?

Oh, canceling dinner.

Spending a week at the corporate office feels like I'm two months behind in paperwork.

Not to mention phone calls I haven't returned.

John, I was talking about...

Yes?

Yes?

Uh, no, not right now.

But see if you can get a hold of Tony Schubert.

We'll spend some time together later in the week, when you're not so preoccupied with your court date.

I'm preoccupied?

Went through this with my own divorce.

Once you decide to separate, you feel stronger, because you're taking some kind of action.

Then the reality sets in.

You feel the sense of loss.

Loss.

Failure.

Failure.

To an extent.

You've really got this down, haven't you?

Give it some time.

Before long, you move into the next phase.

John, I'm talking about my marriage, not a corporate bankruptcy.

Not everything fits into neat little compartments.

Maybe it's always been that easy for you, but not me.

You're missing the point.

Yes.

Yes.

Oh, put him through.

Tony Schubert.

Hello, Tony.

I'm sorry I missed you.

Gee, I'd love to, but I'm plowed under here.

Can we make it next week?

Your mom will be down soon.

I'll sign out.

You'll come back tomorrow for your results?

Yeah.

I wonder if I'll handle All the news is as well as my brother.

The one thing about not knowing is that it still leaves room for hope.

Mom getting sick, David's diagnosis, selling the bookstore.

I feel like my family's falling apart.

Right now, my family's being pulled apart, too.

The struggle to stay close.

It's tougher than ever.

But we have a bond that isn't diminished by pain or distance.

No matter what, we have to preserve our families.

They're our past.

They're our future.

Ready, Mom?

I think so.

I park way down the block.

I'll go get the car.

That's all right.

We can make it.

Bye, Dr. Morrison.

Special.

Multimedian care, teaching of lung cancer prevention, assisted care, emergency Still

I don't have three months before we're together again.

Thank you.

Hospital, hospital.

Third a they'd let me know.

Good luck.

How it ought to you Dr. Auschlander?

Or not sir!

Remember you promised to live long enough to see me graduate from Northeastern.

I won't let you down.

So how is it being off the chemo?

In my particular case, the risk seems to be paying off.

What's going on?

Home, performance art.

Think it wise to allow Mr. Curry to dance around like this?

Where do you get all this equipment?

Who knows?

From the halls of human suffering, to the shores of asystole, I stand before you.

The first, the best, the only.

Oh, wait!

Both parties, please rise.

As you're aware, this is a no-fault divorce with an agreed-upon division of the marital assets.

Have you both had the benefit of counsel?
