00:59Okay, okay, okay.
01:01I get it.
01:03Fighting is not my strong suit.

03:17just work
03:18she wants control of the hospital that's not just work though is it not with her
03:30i can't control what you do out of work and frankly i don't care but if you bring your
03:35personal grievances into my hospital then it becomes my problem understood is it because the
03:41night after i present you as the hod of our newest department you decide to toddle off to the local
03:47bar and have some childish altercation and i'm starting to wonder if i made a mistake it wasn't
03:51a mistake you're ahead of surgery and you look like you fell out of a tree last night
03:56where is your tie and you our friendly first port of call for the patients has a black eye

04:07hit him
04:07is that what happened well yes so there is a problem we have to address here no no i i
04:15think your sources
04:16may have exaggerated or misinterpreted what happened as a fight really yes we were just
04:24being men oh yeah exactly male bonding
04:33fine so the male bonding won't continue in the workplace i can promise you the rough
04:38housing won't be an issue marty and i enjoy working together if only the arc had more surgical cases

15:41his wife and also my next message is not to be part of whatever you guys are doing it seems
15:45really
15:46hectic to be hooking up with someone who's waiting for his baby to arrive it's not like

16:04you have got a death wish girlie i think he's cheating on my mom oh as if emmett's game is
16:08primitive at best and no one else is hanging out for that except your mom yeah what's his code i
16:14don't
16:14know one two three four
16:29what the hell do you think you're doing this is my ed you can't just barge in here and start
16:33moving
16:33patients we've stabilized your patient now we're getting into theater patient leaves my ed without
16:37my say-so well it'll be fine if you were here to do your job let's go you move this
16:42patient one inch
16:42i'll have you on sluice drain duty for six months but don't be ridiculous your negligence
16:48it's not her why don't you just get out of here warner you can't tell me what to do i'm
16:51the medical
16:51director i'm hod so why don't you piss off can we take this somewhere else no you should be
16:56thanking her for saving your patient you are not running this hospital don't push me enough
17:05you're as embarrassed as i am for that display in ed and if you're not
17:09you should be yeah it wasn't one of my finest moments no anything to add apart from reminding
17:18us that you're the medical director at the top of your lungs i'm sorry emis i shouldn't have raised
17:24my voice no you shouldn't have it's my ed running a department in this hospital is a responsibility
17:30and a privilege and i told you this morning that you were the best choice for the role dr whitman
17:36but i'm starting to wonder if i made a mistake if you can't keep yourself in check over a small
17:41disagreement how are you going to handle a mass casualty i can i have i do it every day maybe
17:47under the former ceo who let you run ed like the wild west i'm not going to let you tarnish
17:52my reputation
17:54with trivial disputes
17:59i'm sorry dr woman i should have let you take the lead on that patient it won't happen again
18:06you can go now we're not done chris oh and emmett yeah if you leave ed in the hands of
18:15a junior
18:15doctor again it'll be the last time you step foot in this hospital got it
18:23it doesn't seem like a fracture but the x-ray should tell us for sure in the meantime keep it
18:28elevated and i'll get you some ibuprofen for this one billy can i talk to you for a minute no

18:45it's an infected scrotal piercing have fun with that one
18:49logan won't talk to me really i wonder why you know he's never gotten like this before well you're
18:55thinking about someone other than yourself this is the first can we just put our differences aside
18:59for logan's sake please i know how cut up he gets about fighting with his mates he's just he's over
19:05it villi over what you always talking down to him always making him put in all the work which is
19:11such
19:11a shame because he was actually really looking forward to seeing i know i should have been here
19:15after the crash i messed up but if you could just mess up he could have died i want to
19:20make things right
19:21with him please dawn i need your help fine i will help you but only because logan is in pieces
19:34over
19:34this not because i think you deserve it or that i think his life is better with you in it
