The Resident
Tuesdays 8:00 PM on FOXThe Resident Quotes
Kit: You do look healthy. You'd tell me if you weren't right? If there's something I should ask?
Bell: Not at all, I'm good. I really am. Where is this coming from?
Kit: Rough case.
Devon: What is the scientific question that you want me to answer?
Marco: Isn't that obvious? How to live forever.
Billie: I can't imagine being in her position.
Conrad: It makes me want to ask everybody everything even if I'm afraid of the answer.
Billie: Me too.
It's complicated. Sometimes you need a dose of denial to have hope.
Kit
Devon: Why did you stick around?
Irving: I'm afraid of death.
Devon: You? Seriously? you see it all the time. Everyday somebody dies in our ER.
Irving: And when it happens I walk away. Another team comes in, cleans the body, zips up the bag. One moment a person is there and the next it's just dead flesh. Empty eyes, heavy limbs, absence. When I almost lost Jessica it got personal, I realized it could happen to us at anytime.
Ian: Thanks for holding down the fort.
Billie: But I shouldn't have to. What happened back there, Ian?
Ian: Well, long story short, I was sick, now I'm not.
Billie: Well, someday I want the long story because that can never happen again.
Cade: Dad, we need to talk.
Ian: I can't right now, dear, I've gotta get going.
Cade: Earlier with the patient you were having trouble, you were forgetting thigns, and it's been weighing on me.
Ian: I got surgery right now, Cade. I can't do this right now, okay?
Cade: I don't think you should be operating.
Ian: This is exactly why I didn't tell you about the oxyprozine, everything I do now is going to be under a microscope.
Cade: Can you blame me? I'm worried about you, dad.
Ian: Do no patronize me! Is that why you came in here? Comb through all my past, fine let's do that?
Cade: okay you're being irrational, just calm down.
Ian: Do you want me to admit it? I was a terrible father. That's what you tell all your friends, right? You tell them I was a deadbeat. You had to raise yourself, right? You know, Cade, sometimes you are not the victim. Sometimes you're the problem. You make everyone around you feel like a failure, Ms. High and Mighty. Do you have any idea what having a daughter like that does to a man?
Cade: I'm sorry I'm such a disappointment to you, Ian.
My cousin, his eyes used to be dilated like that. It turns out he was in withdrawal at the time. You're not in withdrawal are you, Dr. Sullivan?
Tabitha
Irving: You know where her weakness is from. She has myasthenia gravis.
Devon: I'm not so sure about that. My gut is telling me something else is going on.
Irving: Hold up, you're saying dozens of neurologists who all diagnosed her with myasthenia gravis are wrong, all because you have spidey sense?
Devon: I'm sure those doctors made the best diagnosis they could with the information they had, but the inefficiencies of the treatment--
Irving: This isn't about the treatments, Pravesh, this is about you treating a patient like one of your little science experiments.
Conrad: One bullet cost so much, for our patient and our hospital.
Kit: One damn bullet.
Conrad: We good?
Cade: My father tested positive. He has an excuse, said he's been taking pain meds for his back.
Conrad: Is that possible?
Cade: It's possible, but...
Conrad: We don't have to talk about it. We don't have to talk about anything. Come home with me.
Cade: I need to be alone, do some thinking. Tomorrow?
Conrad: Sure thing.
One bullet can require 100 healthcare workers to fix the damage it causes.
Conrad
