- Yeah.
It's what the fight was about.

Carmen said
it didn't look right.

Wanna take him to the hospital,

"No, money's tight."

why you still haven't sat down
with Avery Quinn.

- Because her firm is bringing
a class action lawsuit

against this hospital,
and frankly,

I don't think we should be
so eager to cooperate.

- Ms. Goodwin,
these depositions

are just pro forma

- This lawsuit shouldn't
be happening.

Every one of our doctors
associated with the Vas-COM

is listed as defendants,

but they didn't do
anything wrong.

They shouldn't be punished.

- You're right.

But what we need
to avoid right now

is an ugly legal battle that

we're really being judged

is in the court
