The Resident
Tuesdays 8:00 PM on FOXThe Resident Quotes
You actually think that dyslexia is the hardest part of my job? It's not. It's you, and your voices in my head constantly telling me I'm not good enough.
Leela
Bell: How did it go?
Conrad: Gigi had a great day.
Bell: And you?
Conrad: I wouldn't call it great, but it was important. I'm needed here. I'm ready. I'm ready to suit back up for Chastain.
Bell: Uh, so what about the work/life balance.
Conrad: I have no idea. But we'll make it work.
Bell: Welcome back, Dr. Hawkins.
Trevor: That was real.
Conrad: We're all going to die. One day we'll be the patient. We stand between them and the day that moment comes, and we all knew the truth, and you found it hard to give her the truth, but you did it anyway because the patient is what comes first, not us. Hey, you did good in there. Now, if your interest comes before the patient like they did earlier today, then Dr. Pravesh is right. It should be your last day as a doctor.
Conrad: He felt pain for Carol and AJ, he wanted to help. I could see that, but it'll be a journey with him.
Devon: Yeah, I"m conflicted. I'm thinking about my first day. God knows I screwed up.
Conrad: You screwed up because of a desperate need to help, your empathy got you in trouble, not your self-interest. As for Trevor, it's your call.
AJ: Look, I talked to your boy today. I have hope for him.
Billie: Me too.
AJ: But listen, he thinks I recommended him to Chastain. That I got him his residency. Billie, I want you to know that I did no such thing.
Billie: I know. I did.
AJ: No man wants his mother to pull his strings.
Billie: Agreed, but I'm not his mother.
Padma: I threw you under the bus in there, I'm really sorry.
Leela: It's okay.
Padma: No it's not. When I got leukemia, it affected us both as children. It took my fertility, but it also gave me something far more powerful, the ability to live each day as if it was the last. That freed me from everything, including their judgment. And you're free now too. I am so proud of you for standing up for yourself today.
Leela: At the expense of ever having a peaceful family gathering again.
Padma: Peace is overrated. You demanded respect, and I've never been prouder to share your DNA.
Bell: I have hope because you came today. If you weren't even going to consider it, why even show up?
Conrad: Same reason you did? You don't say no to Kit Voss.
Gigi: Are you going to the hospital where mommy used to work?
Conrad: You remember, sweetie, I don't work at the hospital anymore. I have a private practice now because I want to spend more time with you and Mr. Giraffe.
Kit: Dr. Sutton.
Billie: How many times do I have to call you because these ICU doctors won't give my patients enough pain meds? Look, I know it's not your fault, Kit, but it's your hospital, and if my patients can't get relief...
Kit: It complicates their recovery.
Billie: How do you expect me to do my job when not everybody is doing theirs?
AJ: Me and your sister, I hope it's not too weird for you.
Leela: You mean the fact that you basically have seen me naked?
AJ: Great. Thanks, I didn't think about that.
Irving: Look who decided to show his face.
Hundley: As if anyone could get enough of that face.
Leela: How long can you keep doing this?
Padma: Doing what?
Leela: Exactly. What are you doing? Look, I know this seems like it's fun and everything, but don't you think it's time you put down some roots, or maybe a root? You know what, forget, I'll check it out later.
Padma: I threw your milk out last week. It was five months old. And I would've noticed sooner if I wasn't lacto.
Leela: What's your point?
Padma: When's the last time you ate a meal at home?
Leela: We order in.
Padma: To the apartment, you're never at? With the boyfriend you never see?
Leela: I see Devon all the time.
Padma: At work where you always are. When I came to Atlanta, I was only going to stay for a couple of weeks. I stayed because I love you, and Leel, you don't eat, you barely sleep, all you talk about is medicine.
Leela: That's the job; I'm a doctor. I'm saving lives.
Padma: And what about your life?
