Kim:  Does it work?

Kerry:  I don't know. I'm desperate. Now I'm listening to Randi. Did you like it?

Kim:  Yes. First edition. Must have been expensive.

Kerry:  What's the point of working like a maniac if you can't spend money on friends?

Kim:  Friends. I don't think we're in the same place on this.

Kerry:  Oh, what? Christmas?

Kim:  No, us. I don't need any more friends.

Kerry:  Oh. Okay. Okay. I understand.

Kim:  Do you?

Kerry:  Yeah, with a pair of our suture scissors no less.

Kim:  You sent him home?

Kerry:  It was superficial. Didn't breach the peritoneum.

Kim:  There should have been a Psych consult, first.

Kerry:  He's a frewuent flier. A new injury every week.

Kim:  Could be an accelerating pattern.

Kerry:  Oh. He's never had a serious suicide attempt. Your department's refused to admit him on three separate occasions.

Kim:  He tried to harm himself. We're supposed to be called.

Kerry:  All he wanted was food and company. Frankly, I thought you'd be greteful that--

Kim:  Kerry, I-- I think we should not let what happened between us interfere with patient care.

Kerry:  what?

Kim:  We're both professionals.

Kerry:  Excuse me. I did what I thought was medically appropriate.

Kim:  It hat nothing to do with the fact you've been avoiding me?

Carter:  I called for a consult.

Kim:  I'm admitting her.

Kerry:  Why?

Kim:  Danger to self.

Kerry:  Does the pound of cocaine she swallowed figure into this?

Carter:  It wasn't a pound. We're not obligated to report drug use to the authorities.

Kerry:  But I'd imagine in the case of drug smuggling we'd make an exception.

Kim:  She's not a dealer. She's a kid. She made a mistake and almost got killed.

Kerry:  Maybe, but she's not suicidal.

Kim:  What's your probrem, Kerry?

Kerry:  What?

Kim:  She's 18 years old.

Carter:  Her going to prison isn't going to benefit anybody.

Kerry:  Could you excuse us, Dr. Cater? Excuse us. Don't you ever talk to me like that in front of a resident again.

Kerry:  I know that it's been tense between us and I really don't mean it to be.

Kim:  I'm sure it'll pass.

Kerry:  Kim, I want you to know that I respect you as a colleague.

Kim:  Today notwithstanding?

Kerry:  I miss you.

Kim:  Well, that'll pass too. In a few weeks we'll just be friedly co-workers all over again.

Kerry:  It's okay.

Christy:  Hey, do you realize that everyone at this table has slept with Kim?

Kate:  Oh, my God!

Kim:  Cut it out, you guys.

Christy:  I bet she brought a U-Haul on the second date, right?

INT. - CURTAIN AREA 3

Kim:  We're gonna move you to your own room. Okay, Mary?

Mary:  What if Jesus comes for me and I'm not here?

Kerry:  I didn't abandon you on purpose.

Kim:  I didn't say you did.

Kerry:  Okay, What did they say?

Kim:  They were following up on Shannon Wallace the attempted suicide who caused that train derailment. They probably wanna talk to you.

Kerry:  Why?

Kim:  The patient has accused me of sexual harassment.

Kerry:  What?

Kim:  Yeah. She told the police that I came on to her and I touched her.

Kerry:  Why would she say such a thing?

Kim:  Well, she caused over 30 deaths. She's probably trying to divert the heat off of herself.

Kerry:  Yeah, but why.. why would she accuse you of that? How would she even know you were..?

Kim:  Gay? I told her.

Kerry:  You what?

Kim:  I was trying to help her.

Kerry:  Oh, no. Kim. Kim, what were you thinking?

Kerry:  Yeah.


INT. - HALLWAY OUTSIDE ROMANO'S OFFICE

Kerry:  Dr. Legaspi.

Kim:  Kerry.


INT. - EXAM ROOM 2

Kim:  Is there someone you want me to call to be here? Your husband, maybe?

:  I'me divorced.

Kim:  What is his name?

:  Ed. Ed Jeffries. But he lives in Boston now.

Kim:  Okay. The police would like to ask you some questions. Do you feel up to this? Okay. I will be back when they're done, and we'll talk.

:  Okay.


INT. - - EXAM ROOM 1

Kim:  Hey.

Kerry:  Hey. How is she doing?

Kim:  Better than I would be.

Kerry:  Um.. How was your meeting with Romano?

Kim:  Homopjobic. Misogynistic. The usual. Degrading.

Kerry:  What did you tell him?

Kim:  The truth. That shannon Wallace was a young woman experiencing a sexal-identity crisis. She needed to know that being gay is not an affliction.

Kerry:  Yeah. And what did you tell him about us?

Kim:  Oh. Oh, I see. Don't worry. Your secret's safe with me.

Kerry:  That's not what I meant.

Kim:  No? What did you mean?

Kerry:  No. No. You think that I am the only one who has problem with this.. that.. that it's universally accepted. But that is not true.

Kim:  So we skulk about in the shadows because some narrow-minded individuals disapprove?

Kerry:  No. No. I just think that you are fooling yourself if you... How many openly gay women do you know in hospital administrative positions?

Kim:  Kerry..

Kerry:  None. It doesn't happen.

Kim:  What dose that have to do with anything?

Kerry:  I'm explaining why this is difficult for me.

Kim:  Guess what, Kerry. This isn't about you. This is about a confused and frightened young women who would rather kill herself than deal with the stigma of being gay. Maybe it is about you.


INT. - CONFERENCE ROOM

Kerry:  Are Dr. Romano and Dr. Anspaugh still here?

:  They're waiting for you in the conference room.

Romano:  Dr. Weaver. Better late than never. Let's cut to the chase, so we can all get out of here and go home. Okay. Dr. Legaspi recently, for whatever reasons, had what I hope was a momentary lapse in judgment.

Kim:  I take offense to that.

Romano:  Really? I take offense to you having come out to your patient, which was inapproproate..

Anspaugh:  Dr. Legaspi is a valuable asset to the Psychiatry Department as well as this hospital as a whole. I think that her instincts were correct and har intentions very honorable considering the situation.

Romano:  Honorable, perhaps. Stupid, definitely.

Anspaugh:  Come on, Robert. Patients with psychological problems falsely accuse their doctors of all sorts of things. I had a guy today blame me for hypnotizing him in order to drink his blood.

Romano:  Well, we'll have to look into that another day, Donald. But the fact is, to the best of my knowledge, you are not a vampire. Dr. Legaspi, however, is a lesbian. Am I right?

Kim:  I've never hidden that fact from this administration or my colleagues.

Romano:  Or from patients, wherein lies the problem.

Kim:  There's a difference between being gay and being a child molester.

Romano:  Okay. My recommendation is administrative leave pending the criminal hearing.

Anspaugh:  I think that's premature.

Romano:  No. It's preemptive. If we get lucky, there won't be any charges and you can come back to work having learned a lesson, albeit the hard way. You have anything to add, Dr. Weaver, considering you are one of them?

Kerry:  Them?

Romano:  A female physician dealing with female patients.

Kerry:  No. Yes. I think that Dr. Legaspi is a wonderful doctor. And I don't think that she did any of the things that she's accused of doing.

Romano:  Well, that's well-spoken, Kerry. That's very convincing. Please remind me never to ask you to testify on my behalf. Okay. Meeting is adjourned. I have dinner plans.

Anspaugh:  Pay no attention to him. This, too, will pass.

Kerry:  I'm sorry. I'm... Kim. Kim, please don't. Kim, please. Please, please stop. I'm so.... I'm so sorry. Let's just get out of here and talk about this.

Kim:  There's really nothing to talk about.

Kerry:  What did you expect me to say? I am so sorry, Kim.

Kim:  Me too. Go back to your life, Kerry.

Kerry:  No, don't. You can't do this. We have something good.

Kim:  What? What do we have? A relationship that you're ashamed to acknowledge in public?

Kerry:  You're right. I wish I could be like you. I wish I could be as confident and secure with this as you are. But I am not you. I have been on the outside my whole life fighting for acceptance and respect. And now you're asking me to do it all over again?

Kim:  I'm not asking you for anything.

Kerry:  don't, please. I just I need more time. I can't do this right now. Please, Kim. Kim.

Abby:  What commitment hearing?

Abby:  Well, nobody called me.

Kim:  Okay. Your mother has contested her certificare of commitment. By law, she is entitled to a hearing in front of a judge.

Abby:  And, what. he could release her?

Kim:  What was all that about?

Kerry:  Misguided sense of job security.

Kim:  Lot of that going around. I heard you came by the house.

Kerry:  Yeah, I was in the area, and on a whim, I thought I'd step by.

Kim:  Lori said that you had a letter, but that you didn't leave it.

Kerry:  It just didn't seem like the timing was very good.

Kim:  I can see how you would feel that way.

Kerry:  How long have you two been seeing each other?

Kim:  Not long. I'm sorry. I know this must be painful you.

Kerry:  No, I'm fine. I mean, it's fine.

Kerry:  You too.


INT. - LOBBY

Abby:  Dr. Legaspi.

Kim:  Hi.

Abby:  Hi. I was wondering if you could tell me how it's going with my mother.

Kim:  I'm sorry, Abby. I really can't discuss her therapy with you.

Abby:  Even if she said you said I should attend one of her sessions?

Kim:  I think that it would be mutually beneficial. Yeah.

Abby:  Okay. Could you give me a little bit of an idea what to expect?

Kim:  Well, it's not an ambush.

Abby:  I'm sorry. It's just that she lies a lot.

Kim:  We meet at one. You don't have to come if you don't want to.


INT. - KIM'S OFFICE

Abby:  Sorry I'm late.

Kim:  It's fine. We're glad you could join us.

Maggie:  Hi.

Abby:  Hi.

Kim:  Please know that we both understand how awkward it can be to step into someone eles's therapy.

Abby:  It's okay. I'm fine.

Kim:  Maggie, do you want to continue?

Maggie:  Sure. Um... So Dr. Legaspi and I were talking about... We were talking about a lot. But we were talking about ways I could stay healthy. You know, how to position myself to get it together, keep on track. And part of that is that I've decided to go home.

Abby:  Have you talked to Eric?

Maggie:  No, not Florida. Home home. I'm going back to Mionnesotta.

Abby:  You haven't been to Minneapolis in 15 years, Mom.

Maggie:  I know that. I know. I haven't. But I grew up there. And I feel like I belong there. I've got a little bit of famiy and some friends.

Abby:  What friends?

Maggie:  Gine. You remember Gine? Well, I'm gonna stay with her. She has a spare room. She thinks she could get me a job in the convalescent hospital where she works.

Abby:  Really? When did you arrange all this?

Maggie:  Last week. I... She accepted a collect phone call from me. She was glad to her from me, Abby. She was glad to talk to me. Anyway, I'll save enough money, and I'll get a place of my own.

Abby:  A place of your own?

Maggie:  Yes. A place of my own with no roommates, no men. Just me. Maybe a cat.

Abby:  A cat? that would be a great pet. Cat.

Kim:  Abby. Are you reacting to your mother's plans?

Abby:  I'm not reacting. I'm just...

Kim:  Just? Just what?

Abby:  Nothing.

Maggie:  Abby, I can't stay here in chicago. I don't want to go to Florida. It's just too easy for me to be a drain on you and--

Abby:  You know, I think we're way past that at this point.

Kim:  What is your objection to your mother going home?

Abby:  Nothing. It's vey romantic.

Kim:  You're not happy about it?

Abby:  I don't know what you want me to say. Yippee, she's going home? Fabulous, that solves all the problems? What?

Kim:  Then what is your solution?

Abby:  I don't have a solution. I don't... I don't think there is a solution. And to talk about this as if it were some life-management problem that you can plan your way out of, well, it's absurd.

Kim:  Then what do you suggest?

Abby:  I don't know. You know what? I don't know. I don't know. So I guess you're right. You have to do something, Mom. Good luck.

Maggie:  So, what? You're leaving?

Abby:  You wanted to tell me. You told me.

Maggie:  Well, I'm not going for a week or so.

Abby:  Okay, great. See you later.


INT. - HALLWAY OUTSIDE CURTAIN AREA 3

Kim:  Well. the hand's okay.

Mark:  Look at the wrist.

Kim:  Is that a Colles' fracture?

Mark:  Ben says he never hurt his wrist.

Kim:  Oh. Maybe he's too young to remember it.

Mark:  His dad doesn't remember, either. How did your talk go with him?

Kim:  Well, he's a pretty hostile kid.

Mark:  Clammed up when Dad showed up.

Kim:  Yeah. It was hard to talk to him. His dad was standing outside the whole time, and Ben knew it.

Mark:  He's terrified of him.

Kim:  I think he is. But he says theres no violence in the home.

Mark:  You saw that bruising. That's him getting pulled by his ear.

Kim:  He says he doesn't remember how it happened.

Mark:  You don't forget a broken bone or bruising like that.


INT. - DOCTORS LOUNGE

Kim:  There you are.

Abby:  Hi.

Kim:  Do you have a minure?

Abby:  Sure. Am I in trouble or something?

Kim:  I don't usually do this. But I think it's important.

Abby:  Okay.

Kim:  I think you need to give your mom one more chance.

Abby:  Didn't I do that today?

Kim:  You started to. And then you ran away.

Abby:  Maybe because I've heard it about 100 times before.

Kim:  I think this time's different.

Abby:  Do you? Why?

Kim:  Well, she hasn't been willing to go to therapy for 10 yeats. Now she's embracing it.

Abby:  I'd love to believe that meant something.

Kim:  Don't let your mom go away without being able to really talk to you. That won't make either of you happy.

Abby:  I don't think "happy" is on the table.

Kim:  Why not?

Abby:  Look, I'm not in therapy.

Kim:  Fair enough.

Abby:  But I'll consider it. What you said.

Kim:  Okay.


INT. - HALLWAY OUTSIDE EXAM ROOM 4

Kerry:  Kim?

Kim:  Hi, Kerry.

Kerry:  This is for you.

Kim:  What is it?

Kerry:  It's how I feel about things, about you. And I never really told you. And maybe it doesn't matter now. But I wanted you to know.

INT. - ADMIT DESK

Kim:  Kerry, I've got a hypotensive social worker. Probably just stress but you should check it out.

Kerry:  Okay. Thanks. Hello.

Kim:  I read your letter.

Kerry:  Good. I was wondering.

Frank:  Dr. Legaspi, Dr. Romano, line three, for you.

Kim:  Tell him I'll call him back.

Kerry:  She'll call you right back.

Kim:  Anyway, I appreciate the sentiment.

Kerry:  "Sentiment"?

Frank:   He says for you to get on the line now. He needs to talk to you about a transfer.

Kerry:  Frank. She's busy. He should be too. We could have as many as eight GSWs going.

:   Nine. Carjack victim.

Kerry:  Okay. We're swamped with this. Tell them to divert to Mercy.

:  Mercy said no ETAs 9 to 10.

Kerry:  Why do they bother calling?

Kerry:  Right. Okay.

Kim:  Okay. I should get back.


INT. - ADMIT DESK

:  Abby, let's go outside.

Romano:  And when I call you, you get on the phone!

Kerry:  She was helping with the mass casualty .... needed here.

Romano:  I needed to clear Recovery for the barrage of gunshot wounds you keep accepting!

Kim:  I'm not taking responsibility for post-op complicatons in the psych ward!

Romano:  Oh, really Okay. Well, then we'll have to find somebody who's interested in responsibility.

Kim:  What is that supposed to mean?

Romano:  DeRaad can finish your shift.

Kim:  What?

Romano:  Nice knowing you.


INT. - PSYCHIAYT WARD

Kim:  I'm surprised my code stil works.

Kerry:  It's not gonna happen, Kim.

Kim:  What isn't?

Kerry:  They can't let you go, not legally.

Kim:  No. They always intended to fire me.

Kerry:  They would have done it sooner, but they needed a thick human-resource file first. Which is bogus. They'll never get away with it.

Kim:  They already have.

Kerry:  Only if you let them.

Kim:  It's not worth the effort. I'm not interested in working for a place that doesn't want me here.

Kerry:  You have the right to due process. We can find a civil-rights attorney.

Kim:  We?

Kerry:  It's not right, Kim. You know why they're firing you. You have to fight it. You have to fight this.

Kim:  I'm supposed to fight? You're hiding but I'm supposed to fight. Well, I'm sorry. But I don't want to fight. I just want to move on. So should you.
