Original subtitles

Oh, it's cold out there.

That walk's awful slippery.

I paid Pirelli to shovel and salt, but he took the money and went to Mottagroff.

I guess that's the kind of work ethic he learned in Middlebury College.

My car almost didn't start this morning.

Well, at least you have a car.

Where's your rental?

I turned it in.

I was at the end of my 200 free miles.

Well, we'll drive to the hospital together.

Oh, by the way, the, uh, Auschlanders won't be able to make Donald's party,

so I guess I'll have to hitch a ride with you to Peterborough.

As long as you don't mind traveling with three women.

I'm taking Carol Novino and Lizzie Westphall.

Can't wait to hear all about last week's episode of Cagney and Lacey.

Mark, where are the coffee mugs?

Oh, I moved them.

I mean, you keep the dishes so far car from the washer.

You know, you're even neater than I remember you.

You've re-organized the entire kitchen.

Yeah, well, now that I'm giving up the house as per our divorce agreement.

Now, that's the start of trying to make me feel guilty about kicking you out of your home.

Ellen, there's no reason to fight.

Now, let's just complete the agreement and get on the road, because I have the twin bill in OR before noon.

I'll send someone over from the Ivy Club to pick up my bags.

Where do I sign?

There.

Okay.

It's all yours.

You better hurry, huh?

Mm-hmm.

What are you doing?

Well, you know, I've been making so many three-minute eggs.

I was just wondering if I could keep this.

The egg timer?

Well, it's, you know, it's very familiar, and I know just how the dial works.

Mark, you can buy an egg timer anywhere, and a lot better than that one.

Please, let me have it, hmm?

Sure.

We better go.

The roads are really slick.

You've said that three times already.

I get the hint.

I'll be careful.

It's not that I don't trust you.

Right.

Well, let's, uh, switch places and I'll go over the controls.

I know how to drive.

Lizzie, my old car was demolished in the parking structure.

I just can't afford to replace another one.

You know, you could have gotten a better deal from Pee Wee's Autoland.

After that smooth talker lowballed our relationship, I'd rather ride a mule to work.

Jeffrey, I did not say you could have new ice sketes.

Yes, you did.

This is not a debate.

Mom, do you have to yell?

Marcy?

You can stay with us while you're patching up your marriage, but I run the house.

Come on, everyone, I have to drive clear to Newton, and we're not halfway through the carpool.

Use your old skates.

I heard you say you'd loan him the money.

Helen, I heard it too, but can we put this off till tonight, huh?

Oh, skip it, Mom.

Helen?

Carol?

Great day, isn't it?

Oh, I forgot something.

Richard, wait!

Maybe not such a good day.

I'm trying to relax.

I want to call respiratory therapy down here for treatment.

Right, no problem.

Just got evaluations for last month.

Made me realize I'm not even halfway through my surgical residency and here you

are, ready to start practicing in the spring.

Spring.

Clear the doors.

This is bringing you to action, Jackie.

BP is 100 over 70, pulse 90, deep scalp laceration with a possible local

concussion and rib fractures, started among ringers.

One minute I'm driving along whistling Dixie, the next minute I'm over the center line into oncoming traffic.

For all you happy commuters, this is the man who closed the Congress Street Bridge.

Type cross two units, start an IV normal saline, and get a portable X-ray up here, stat.

Oh, Fiscus, DiCarlo wants your butt.

I'm only letting her have my ifs and ands.

Okay, folks in respiratory are too busy to catch their breath, so I'll just go ahead in and bid you.

I've been able to stay out of the hospital for three months.

Growing up with cystic fibrosis, you're aware that coughing blood is serious.

Come on, let's sit her up so she can breathe.

She wanted to stay home.

Well, in her condition, that would have been a mistake.

I'm going to drag.

Come on, keep her upright.

Look, if she doesn't want to, I'm not going to make her.

Louie, you want to give me a hand over here?

Let's move her upstairs.

Mr. Bidwell, I'm checking you in.

It doesn't seem like I'm hurt that bad.

You were lucky you were wearing a seat belt, but we have to discover why you blacked out.

Help me get Mr. DeWalt to admitting.

Oh, Mark, I need to talk to you about Mrs. DeLillo's surgery.

And I need to get into my office.

Well, call Colin Kyle.

Those two beady brains from maintenance?

That's a joke.

Oh, hell.

I really could use your help with Mrs. DeLillo's arrhythmia.

You know, walk and talk.

And take western-sized steps.

Chandler.

Listen, according to your organizational chart, I'm supposed to ask a first-year

proctor for a consult coming to you, right?

That's right.

Well, all the first-year proctors are busy, so... So am I.

Phil, I have a patient, Stacy Schneider.

Don't have time to help.

Now, reorganize your first-year residence so you can be more efficient.

It worked in Missouri.

It can work here.

Good morning, Carol.

No, not really.

Early.

Helen?

Helen?

Helen?

Oh, yeah, Stanley.

I'd like the pharmacy log of the night of Judge Farnham's death.

Still sleuthing for whoever accidentally overdosed the judge.

Helen, my patient Peter Bidwell is on the way up.

He'll be in room 5217.

That's occupied.

Admission said that you gave the all clear.

I had the pressure.

Didn't mean to make your job more difficult.

It was as if my head was going to split open.

Perhaps you like aspirin.

Excuse me, I'm sorry, I think I'm going to vomit.

Speaking of which, when it comes to dealing with Helen lately, I throw up my hands.

So?

I don't see any cardiac activity.

Maybe we just miscounted the days.

There's even less placental tissue protein than the last exam.

Yeah, but maybe... And your beta HCG turned up negative twice in a row.

Oh, Victor.

Hey, hey, it's nobody's fault.

Only one out of five pregnancies end up in this carriage.

Can you perform the DNC?

Uh, I have another patient in labor right now.

So what, soon as you're through?

Well, if you and Lucy are both ready.

Hey, why wait, right, hon?

My problem is I have a nine O'clock bypass, M&M conference at 11.

30, let's say about 11.15.

Victor.

Yeah, babe.

Can you pass me my sweater?

Right.

I think I can arrange a room.

It's still early.

Got the day off, you can go home for a while.

Well, I thought we could sit together, maybe have some breakfast.

Yeah, but just fluids for you.

Hey, your secretary told me you were here.

Shut You changed the lock on my office, and I just found out that Oliver London has taken my surgical schedule.

We'll talk about this later.

Close the door.

What the hell's going on?

Until the Spooner malpractice suit is settled, you won't be practicing here.

That could take years.

Besides, before I implanted the artificial heart, Henry Spooner signed a release.

Now, his widow doesn't have a case.

The data you compiled shows you modified the Craig 9000 prior to surgery.

Surgery.

I replaced a broken vent.

Which means the corporation and you are fair game for Marguerite Spooner.

How do you figure that?

When you made the unauthorized alteration, you breached FDA approval and the surgical consent form.

If I hadn't made that emergency repair, Spooner would have died.

Maybe.

Definitely.

Fact of the matter is, Weigert's invested millions into the artificial heart program.

For their money, they hoped to gain a reputation, public confidence.

Instead, just the opposite's happened.

Patient.

Security will let you get what you need from your office.

You can't force me out.

How you doing?

I got a leg up on the situation.

Now I have both.

We're giving you 50 milligrams Demerol.

Just the minimum dosage or I'll go into orbit.

Normal dose.

You okay?

Uh-huh.

Uh-huh.

That stuff works fast.

You shouldn't feel any more pressure than with a pelvic.

You might feel a little tugging.

Legs asleep.

Don't want to go to work?

Uh-huh.

I see roads.

Be crazy driving around delivering sappy balloon bouquets.

Always get an indoor job for winter.

Put out the butt.

Hey, I opened a window.

Annette's on medication to control the bleeding in her lungs.

The smoke may start her coughing again.

Not one hack attack since you left for my lab results.

I wish I had good news.

Good news is a razor.

You're coughing up more blood than you said I've ordered a transfusion.

Wait, with all the AIDS crap going around?

A friend of ours just had hep.

You're anemic and you need... I can't guarantee I won't catch something.

The hospital does its best to... Guarantee.

The chances are very slim.

Like you said, she doesn't need more problems.

All right, but I'd like to schedule a bronchoscopy.

No.

Listen, you might get by without the transfusion, but if the bleeding doesn't stop, you're dead.

Gratefully.

Now you're making cheap rock-and-roll jokes?

What are you talking about?

The test you want to do is dangerous.

I had it once.

Doctors told me if something goes wrong, I'm a veg.

Then eat all your Brussels sprouts.

And if I do make it, you're just going to put me on a respirator?

I've been on one of those.

It was vile.

I swore to myself never again.

The respirator probably saved your life.

Without it, you might have died.

Well, I woke up a big sweat.

Cafeteria, please.

Jonathan Gladman, cafeteria, please.

Jackie!

Everything's straightened out.

Mr. Bidwell has a bed in the ward.

Victor asked me to deliver this to Mark Craig.

Who does he think I am?

Postmistress general.

Oh, I know what this is.

You guys won't believe it.

Want a peek?

Is it Mark Craig's birthday?

No.

Good.

I don't have a gift for him.

Victor thought since the sheep died, Dr. Craig deserved something special.

It's that one, I think.

It is.

Victor's disgusting.

Dr. Kiem, I just finished residency evaluation.

You're still not certified to work in ER.

I know.

No, I still haven't beat the clinical simulator yet, but I will.

Listen, I really need a consult.

Dr. Kiem, I need a consult.

Good in line.

I heard the news today.

Oh, not that.

They got you under house arrest.

I wish there was something I could do.

Well, it's not.

Listen, you didn't want to listen to a word I say.

I'm about to leave my left anterior descending artery award.

I'm heading straight to my lawyers to file an injunction.

If you're not here to help, what do you want?

What do you want?

Helen Rosenthal.

You can have her.

She's acting a perfect piccadilly.

That's my point.

Her behavior's been unusually erratic.

You know, when the powers that be were crucifying Donald's career, Helen rallied everyone to his defense.

I mean, people were ready to storm Gideon's office.

But now, not so much as a single person has come by to lend me support.

Everything seems to be okay.

Your EEG's fine?

We need to run an MRI scan.

You sure you don't remember anything else about the accident?

Any dizziness, chest pains?

Not a thing.

Were you under any unusual stress or emotional pressure?

Are you saying this is all in my head?

Well, I have a relative who faints every time somebody puts tomatoes on his salad.

An orderly will run you to your scan.

All I can say is this time ended up worse than the others.

Others?

Accidents.

From blacking out?

Five in the last two years, plus falling off the roof.

I guess sometimes you just get on a bad roll.

Dr.

Craig, I wanted to let you know... Thanks, Wade, but nothing can be done now.

Weigert has no right to take my work away from me.

Actually, I was talking about Victor.

It sounds like Lucy's in a miscarriage.

Dr. Craig, this is to you from Victor.

What is it?

Well, he knew how much you loved that lamb.

He didn't.

Once Flash died, he... He made her fleece into seed covers?

He says the sheepskin keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

Of all times.

Oh, sick.

How can you be friends with such a moron?

I know the gift seems a little extreme, but he... Skinned my pet.

Victor cares.

Phooey.

When we went skating, I thought I saw something that everyone else missed.

Warmth.

Sympathy.

The residents always argued about who you really are.

ER.

I guess we're finding out.

You're not a nice person who's sometimes mean.

You're a mean person who sometimes is... Snowplow.

Knocked down the no-parking zone.

How much is the ticket?

Fifty.

And you don't have it?

Uh-uh.

Hello, Richard.

Daniel.

I was supposed to meet Helen for lunch.

She's been very forgetful.

Yes, I know.

May I speak with you?

Thank you for a moment.

Police ever find out who was taking pot shots at you?

No.

Strange.

As long as there aren't any more attempts.

Hi, Ellen.

Have a seat, Dr. Chandler.

Well, I... No, please.

Mrs. Craig?

Harper?

Well, this food looks even better than before I went to Missouri.

Good.

Something wrong?

You locked Mark out.

Weigert wants a cooling down period.

Bull.

Oh, shoot.

This bacon cheeseburger's a little rare, isn't it?

Stop hiding behind the corporation.

I know you have the authority to... Ellen, could we talk about this later?

Yeah, yes.

Rare.

Cheeseburger.

Don't ever put me on the spot in front of the staff.

Cath.

Daniel Auschlander says Mark is a wreck.

No matter what caused our divorce, I can't take pleasure in his pain.

Your girlfriend is very sick.

Yeah.

She's weak and doesn't feel capable of fighting her illness.

That's why it's important for you to be her strength.

Yeah.

And then you'll be mine and he'll be yours and so on and so on and so on.

Look, you heard what Annette said, right?

She doesn't want the respirator.

She'd rather die.

Now that's her choice.

Don't you love her?

Madly.

Well, then show it.

I do.

I show it every day.

I feel like I just slipped into a parallel universe.

Hey, listen to me for a second.

Annette and I, we met four years ago.

Hardly ever apart since.

We understand each other.

Isn't that what matters?

We're trying to help your girlfriend live.

Hey, death isn't something we're afraid of.

I mean, what is it, huh?

A heart attack?

Or a gunshot?

Or a grim reaper?

You guys waste a lot of time worrying.

Life's not your biological being.

It's what we're doing right now.

Sounds hopeless.

Oh, come on.

To you guys, medicine and hospitals are your hope.

Not to me.

And who's to say?

Whatever shape you want to make it?

Though that hasn't solved all that much hope.

Lucy, babe?

I'm still bleeding.

That's why we want you spending the night.

I hope I don't get a roommate.

I traded time on call with Kylie so I could poke my head in.

Okay, honey?

Bye-bye.

Wait, you're leaving?

I've got surgical rounds.

Can't you stay just a second?

Yeah, okay.

I don't want to make you late.

No, no problem.

No, go.

I'm here, I'm here.

What's the matter?

I stopped by to give you a kiss.

You told me not to leave.

I say of rounds, but okay.

Then you tell me to go.

We haven't seen each other since the procedure.

I... You don't seem very upset.

I feel bad, but you want to be maudlin.

I don't want to be maudlin.

Listen, it's over.

I think we have to put this all behind us and go on with our lives.

Obstetrics.

Victor, we lost our baby.

No, eight weeks.

The fetus was barely formed.

Oh, forget it.

Lucy, come on.

Oh, get out.

Just get the hell out.

Can't wait for this day to end.

Gave up saying that quickest way to ensure a worse tomorrow.

Hope not.

I'm off at dawn to New Hampshire.

Visiting Westphall?

Yeah.

Intimately?

Hardly.

Ellen Harper will be there, Dr. Craig.

Big problem is I have to spend the weekend with Lizzie Westphall if I don't kill her first.

How opinionated can a 20-year-old girl be?

You know, these are not Stacey Schneider's x-rays.

Did I tell you I was rear-ended this morning?

Better off than Mr. Bidwell here.

He had a head-on.

Fifth time he's fainted behind the wheel, and I can't figure out why.

The MRI scan's normal.

Arrhythmia?

Mm-mm.

Checkup's negative so far.

History?

History, blood test, neuro.

Not a clue.

So what do you do now?

Well, if nothing turns up, I send him home with a 24-hour cardiac monitor and tell him to start taking the bus.

Yes?

You wanted to see me?

Come in.

Obviously, you were quite taken by your chief residency training in Missouri.

Surgery.

Well, Weigert's developed a terrific system down there.

I'm not so sure it's terrific.

I don't understand.

Carol Novino came to me for a consult today.

Oh, yeah, well, consults shouldn't reach you except through me.

I'm sorry.

I welcome her questions.

Yeah, but the way I've designed... Carol needed information.

Her efforts to learn and care for a patient were impeded.

Our function is to teach speech skills, and encourage initiative and thought, not management.

Is that all?

Yes.

I hope I haven't wasted your time.

I'm sorry I kept you waiting so long for lunch.

Better late than never.

Losing track of time.

It's because I'm not getting enough sleep.

I know it is.

I'll hitch a ride home tonight.

Richard, are you all right?

You didn't say a word during lunch, not even a peep.

Daniel Auschlander is concerned about you.

Daniel's become a regular biddy, hasn't he?

Actually, what he discussed, your strange behavior, I've seen it too.

I don't have Alzheimer's.

Helen, I've noticed you're taking pills all the time.

Do you snoop around medicine cabinets these days, counting little bottles?

It just occurred to me that... Richard, I'm a nurse.

I understand medication, and frankly, I resent your bringing this up at all.

She's worse.

So give her more codeine.

We're at the limit.

So what?

Give her some more anyway.

Hell's got no limits.

Annette, if you keep bleeding like this, you're gonna have to be on a respirator.

How many times do I gotta tell you?

Don't be stupid.

She's not.

You're letting her commit suicide.

I am not croaking myself.

This disease is... We can stop it.

Yeah, maybe for now, but not forever.

Nothing's forever.

Right, so why bother?

You want to die.

No, I don't want anything.

I just don't want pain.

Hey, I've seen movies before for people letting them choose for themselves.

Very old people, people who are terminally ill.

So what makes them so special, huh?

She's young.

She has a future.

You know, you may not even make it to morning.

Really?

Really.

Early.

Want to have a party?

Mark called.

Spent half the day at his lawyer's.

Any progress?

No, said it doesn't look good.

You shouldn't be out of bed.

The person who made that hospital corner was a real square.

Jack Morrison tells me you had a rough day.

I brought you some chocolate meringues.

Mmm, still hot.

Is this your way of I don't have to watch out for my weight gain anymore?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Putting you on the spot like that, that's not fair.

It's all right.

Mark always used to dish out the one-liners that way.

His method of getting my attention.

It usually meant that he was upset deep down.

You feel like talking?

Yeah.

You know, people have stopped in all evening.

I know they're just trying to comfort me.

Hey, you'll get pregnant again.

A miscarriage is only normal.

It's God's will.

I know whatever they're saying is true, but... But somehow it just doesn't help.

It never helps to deny your loss.

Sensory surgery, functional surgery,

gestational properly, And I will be directed towards a specific time and event.

The hardest day of the year for me is Stephen's birthday.

Just let it out.

What's the problem?

Beats me.

You think you'll be able to start it again?

I don't know.

Well, you're a real Mr. Goodwrench, aren't you?

Yeah, well, forget about it.

I'll walk the rest of the way.

Hey!

You know how many blocks it is to the Ivy Club?

Yeah, it beats me.

I don't know.

Boston hacks.

How's Lucy?

Fine.

I haven't had a chance to tell you.

Don't worry about it.

Mr. Bidwell, as of tomorrow, you're a free man.

Nothing showed up on my other tests?

You're a picture of perfect health, as far as we can tell.

What caused the blackout?

It's a mystery.

Unoriginal, but good enough for me.

I'll be back tomorrow to discharge you.

Jackie, your patient Bidwell, down for the count again.

It happened again, Dr. Wade.

I was just lying.

Excuse us a moment.

I think you better sniff around for the rest of the story.

What do you mean?

Just before this guy dropped, I heard him really rip one off.

Flagellants?

He passed gas and I nearly passed out.

What's going on?

Julie, I thought you were waitressing at Dergen Park tonight.

I got someone to cover.

Helen, have a seat.

This can't be a surprise party no kidding Jeff Helen this is gonna be rough for all

of us but we care about you mom and we ask only that you listen what is all this

about we're here to talk about your dependency on pills excuse.

Me any spare change not on your threadbare life Oh for the love of the All.

Right.

Okay.

How about a buck, okay.

How about a buck, to help me pick this up?

Don't bother.

To help me pick this up.

I just want your coat.

Not those!

Give me those!

Let me go you son of a…

Hey!

My wallet is in that coat!

You bastard, Richard.

You've really done it this time.

We care about what's happening to you.

Nothing is happening.

Well, then come in the kitchen and tell that to all of us.

We'll listen to you if you'll then listen to us.

I want everyone here to know once and for all, I do not have a problem with pills.

You do take pills.

Of course.

No more than I've taken for years.

Just say no, Mom.

After we spoke, I came home and I looked at the medicine cabinet.

God almighty, I feel like a witch on trial in Salem.

All right.

Look, I do take temazepam, but that's for my neck spasms.

You also take Darbon.

That's for my lower back.

Slim trex?

Wait.

Second all or highly addictive?

And all prescribed.

Not by the same physician.

Helen, you understand that the wrong mixture of these medications could be lethal.

All right, I'll quit.

Helen, chemical dependency is a disease.

You need help.

Help.

Look, are you all quite finished down here, because I'm going upstairs.

Helen, just listen, please.

Get the hell out of my way, Richard.

Please, let us finish.

Helen, I believe you're chemically dependent, and you can't work in the hospital.

Shut up.

What's it gonna take, Mom?

I've always been there for you kids.

I haven't ignored your needs.

When I was suffering from an eating disorder, Mom, you screamed and yelled at me to admit my problem.

I didn't get a long look.

I'm sure I can identify the bum in the lineup.

You know, I'm practically frozen.

Welcome.

Where the hell am I?

Temporary municipal shelter for the homeless.

Oh, no, no.

Hold on.

Officer.

Nurse... I told that flatfoot I needed help.

You can stay as long as the storm continues.

If the temperature goes above freezing, the city will ask everyone to hit the road again.

But, uh... Try and find a cot.

All I really need is a telephone.

There's a booth at the corner.

Well, I, uh, I don't have any money.

Maybe you could... Sorry.

Can't help you.

Look, you don't understand.

I'm a heart surgeon.

Mm-hmm.

If I could call the Ivy Club, please.

There are others who need to come in from the cold.

Get yourself some soup.

The nurse told you once already.

I don't want to have to tell you again.

Shut the music off.

And more.

Oh my God.

She's not breathing.

Annette?

Dead?

Is she dead?

Hey wait, leave her alone.

Leave her alone already!

I don't believe you.

You're blasting your music and dancing and the whole time she's just lying there?

Annette wanted us to have a great time.

You just let her die.

It was going to happen anyway.

What if medical technology made a breakthrough?

What if we found a cure for her disease?

She's only dead.

Don't you care?

Don't you feel anything?

You got no guts.

What is it now, Phil?

Going to Kiem.

Yeah, I needed a consult.

When I started this practice system, I started it because I knew it would work.

You just don't know how to make it work because you don't have enough on the ball.

All.

That's why you'll never make a good doctor.

I don't see what his problem has to do with us.

I can't separate my feelings for you from what you've done to Mark.

All I've gotten from you are excuses and confusing responses.

Is this Is this relationship going anywhere?

John, I don't know.

However, half of it's headed for New Hampshire tomorrow.

You're making this up.

I'm not, Mr. Bidwell.

You're sure this is why I've been blacking out?

What am I gonna tell my friends?

If you're embarrassed.

Of course I'm embarrassed.

You should feel lucky it isn't something more serious.

Oh really?

At least with a brain tumor no one would laugh at my condition.

Physician.

It's not just the forceful expelling of flatus.

Bearing down on your sphincter muscle made you lose consciousness because it caused cardiac dysfunction.

You're sure there's a cure?

Surgically.

You'll need to have a pacemaker implanted.

I'm looking at an open heart operation?

No.

It's a much simpler procedure performed every day.

Well, I guess I won't be able to blame it on the dog anymore.

And more.

Better grab a cot.

Find a bed.

With this weather, we'll fill up fast.

Oh, no, I'm not staying.

I'm just... It's been a tough day.

The soup doesn't look so bad tonight.

Nice seat covers.

Look warm.

Arm.

Are they real sheepskin?

Made from my pet lamb.

Oh.

Yes, I truly love that animal.

But she's gone now.

I'm gone with the rest of my life.

You know, about a year ago, I bumped into this old college classmate of mine.

He'd hit the skids.

And I just couldn't understand how that wunderkind could allow himself to fall so low.

I just... And I vowed never to let that happen to me.

Hard times for a lot of people, one.

By one, I've lost everything that's important to me, and I wonder, how.

Will I survive, where will I start, why.

Aren't you with Lucy, on call, oh, that why you're out here bombing

traffic, yeah, yeah, well that may make sense to you, To me, it sounds like being a lousy husband.

What the hell is the matter?

You're a big, slow-moving target, Boomer, and sometimes you should keep your mouth shut.

Yeah, well, maybe I can't help thinking about what happened to your first marriage.

What am I supposed to do, go up there and make everything right for her?

No, of course not.

You can't.

Lucy wanted this baby so bad.

So now you know what she's going through.

A little.

Then what does that mean?

You're the Fred McMurray with the trio of kids, a dad.

Are you worried about becoming a father?

No.

Well, what then?

The baby.

Lucy and I were using birth control.

This is a kid that ain't no river wide enough, ain't no mountain high enough.

It was determined to be.

And our futures, at least for the next couple years, we plan on just the two of us.

A large part of me wants this kid.

But all of a sudden, we had one coming, Fed X.

And when the surprise wore off, the realization sank in, hey, I'm still not ready.

Just snoozing by the side of the road.

Oh, I spoke to Annette Cervanko's boyfriend.

Frankie?

Igeek, real piece of work.

How can anyone think like he does?

In Vietnam, there were so many cultures with completely different approaches to life.

It's funny, you and I are different ages, and yet we're part of the same generation.

I mean, both our lives were shaped by Vietnam.

For you, it was a time for mere place.

Yeah?

But just as you were trying to heal the victims of a war-torn country, I was doing what I could to change the world.

I wonder, were we successful?

That's not the point.

We cared about a better future.

In dark times, we believed.

And today, how come I see fewer and fewer people like that?

Wayne, I don't have any answers.

Why do people like Frankie and Annette feel so little about their lives?

It's late.

Night.

Night.

Night.

Night.

Night.
