The Resident
Tuesdays 8:00 PM on FOXThe Resident Quotes
Every day patients walk through the doors of Chastain with different needs, and our staff is ready. Our doctors and nurses work tirelessly, care deeply, sacrifice willingly. This hospital is a cornerstone of this community and a center for medical innovation, and that's why I'm so proud to call Chastain Park Memorial home.

AJ: The food wasn't inspiring but the name was.
Cain: Wny?
AJ: Come on, man. Another surgical god under the same roof and a brotha at that? I had hoped for a colleague, a comrade, but brotha, you have managed to alienate every single doctor in this hospital, and even still, I have my instincts that hope I felt is still very much alive. You know traumatic events like this can have profound impact on one's constitution, so maybe you come out on the other side of this surgical gifts intact with a different outlook on life.
Cain: I know what you're thinking, that this is Karma.
Kit: The sooner we operate the better chance we have to restore your hand function. That's what I'm thinking.
Mina: I have to tell you something, otherwise I'm going to explode. But you can't get mushy and have to agree this conversation never happened
Nic: Okay.
Mina: I'm seeing someone. He works here.
Nic: Well, it's about damn time! Who else knows?
Mina: Just you and AJ's parents.
Mina: I was wrong. You didn't bring the cameras here for you. You're trying to help Chastain. How bad is it?
Bell: Bad.
Mina: You're not the only one who loves this place, so what can we do?
Yorn: We have no need for a new CEO. Not now, not ever.
Bell: You're selling the hospital.
Yorn: Yeah, Red Rock doesn't throw good money after bad.
AJ: Mina, I'm giving Barrett a chance to see if he can redeem himself.
Mina: I'm not going to hold my breath about that.
Devon: When I was growing up my father was always driving his cab nights, weekends, birthdays, you name it. But then there was this one day that I asked to ride along. We drove all night. He let me sit up front. He even taught me how to spot a fake 20, and then we just started talking. He spoke to me about India, what it was like immigrating to Queens, starting a family. We never talked like that again and when he died, I didn't even get to say goodbye. What I would do for just one more day, one more ride, one more talk with my dad. My point is that maybe your daughter will feel the same.
McCloud: You don't know our story. It's our story. It's not yours. Just be my doctor and try to get me through this.
Don't do anything crazy, and let's keep Red Rock's plans to ourselves. The last thing we need to do is panic the staff.
Kit
Which one of you neophytes punctured Cain's lung?
AJ
You lied to us. We have sick people out there who need our attention but we were stuck here wading through your nonsense.
Devon
Conrad: She almost died keeping a secret. Anything you want to tell me?
Devon: After the memorial, I went to the hospital where my dad died. I found the resident who took care of him. He was a good guy, reminded me of you actually. They were understaffed -- too few vents, one nurse for every ten patients. We have a nurse for every two patients. They intubated him, he was stable 'til, like, 2 am. His Stat dropped, heart rate started to slow, ten minutes went by. And when they finally got to him, he was gone-- cardiac arrest. My father, he died alone because this public hospital in a poor Brown neighborhood didn't have enough resources to save him.
