- Monique Lawson: I hardly slept last night. I just couldn't stop thinking. I mean, so many people coming in, horrible injuries.
- April Sexton: And this isn't even a busy day.
- Monique Lawson: I just hope I'm up to it.
- Maggie Lockwood: Quick, nurses' credo?
- Monique Lawson: Uh... cure sometimes, treat often, comfort always.
- Maggie Lockwood: Uh-uh. Don't kill your patient.
- Maggie Lockwood, April Sexton, Nurse Doris: Because that's the doctor's job.
- Dr. Natalie Manning: [approaching] I heard that.
- Maggie Lockwood: [orienting a new nurse] Seven treatment rooms on the east side, four trauma bays on the west. Bays three and four combine to treat gunshot wounds, a place affectionately known as Baghdad. 4,000 shootings in Chicago. Some days we get... a dozen. Drug dispensers are in the north and south end of the E.D., extra gurneys, isolation suites in the ambulance bay. Uh... Band-Aid, wound dressings, gauze, and extra weaponry are in the supply closet next to the elevator, which brings us right here to the command center.
- Nurse Doris: Deer in the headlights.
- Maggie Lockwood: Mm-hm.
- Nurse Doris: Nursling?
- Maggie Lockwood: Monique Lawson. She's got her Pediatric Advanced Life Support certification, and is doing her E.D. check-off skills training with yours truly.
- Nurse Doris: [to Monique] Be careful. She bites.
- Dr. Sarah Reese: When Jason Wheeler jumped, do you think he was scared? Was... I mean, was... was he at peace? Right before he stepped off, was there a moment of regret? I just... I just can't stop thinking about him.
- Dr. Daniel Charles: Yeah.
- Dr. Sarah Reese: But see, I... I don't want to, and then I feel guilty because I don't.
- Dr. Daniel Charles: The thing about suicide, it's never really a lone act. It tends to leave a lot of victims in its wake. I'd be lying if I said I'd been sleeping too well recently. But, um... but you and I... we got work to do.
