Emily: You're supposed to be making me like you less, remember?
Will: Right, okay, yeah, so suck it up then. Grow a pair?

Emily: I lost a patient today, and I know that it's gonna get easier and it's only hitting me like this because it's the first time, but that doesn't make me feel any better, because there's also something so sad about that.
Will: I don't think it will.
Emily: What?
Will: Get easier for you. I think you'll get better at hiding it, but I don't think it'll get easier for you.
Emily: Do me a favor and don't tell Dr. Pindari that.
Will: You know, Emily, you're a different kind of doctor than she is, and for my money, if I were sick, I'd want you.

Cassandra: Is that a threat?
Emily: Maybe.

[internal monologue] Just let it go. Rise above it. She's not worth your time. You are an adult and a doctor. Oh, screw it.

Emily: I'm very sorry that I dragged you into that adolescent nightmare.
Micah: You know what this means now? I'm gonna have to spread a rumor that I shot you down.
Emily: I'm used to it.

[to Emily] You felt bad? Let me tell you about bad. When you ignore hospital protocol that's bad. When you go over my head, that's bad. And when you piss me off twice in your first week of work, that's very bad.

Gina

Nurse: Watch out. That girl's a barracuda. And apparently she's after you now.
Micah: The gossip in this place is out of control.

Will: You make some sweeping proclamation that you're in love with me?
Emily: I would hardly call it a proclamation.
Will: Emily, we were friends, and coworkers, and now every time I ask you to run a CBC I'm gonna wonder if you're reading something into it.
Emily: Trust me, I'm not...it's very clear that you don't like me.

Will: Yeah?
Emily: I mean, did you think I was going to pine over you forever? You are a cool guy, but come on, I am moving on.

Tyra: Don't worry. It wasn't as bad as you think.

Personally, I find gossip so irritating.

Cassandra

Emily: Any and all.
Max: None of it's big. That's what I tell my grandson. Stop worrying so much. None of it's big.
Emily: Feels big though.

Emily: How about us.
Tyra: Surgery's a melting pot, a little bit of everything, which basically means none of us get along.
