There was a lot of exceptionally good dramatic acting in that episode, like just hand Noah Wylie that Emmy already, but Santos telling the nurses she knew what they were saying got a genuine guffaw out of me.

I assume that Langdon will be back next week, if Dr. Collins has gone home with her phone turned off they will probably need all the doctors they can get

Oh I wonder who the active shooter is... only complaint besides the heavy handing of political issues is how transparent and linear all is... somebody even caught the pizza for morale coming in this same thread! Still fully worth it and eps seems to last like 10 mins.

Langdon comes back and does some heroics, maybe saves Robbie's stepson. 2. Robbie is obligated to sweep the pills under the rug 3. Langdon voluntarily goes to rehab 4. Santos ends up a pariah, nobody knows everything but the whisper is that she's a Buddy Fucker 5. Langdon is back with huge grudge in season 2 I can see why they'd do it, it's dramatic, but I really hope they don't gently caress over a young female whistle blower, that seems bleak even for a show that's already killed off a kid. #TeamSantos

Santos's first day on the job she outs an very liked fellow colleague. Doesn't matter if she was right, it's gonna rub most of the staff the wrong way due to human nature. Like the surgeon lady who seemingly ended their partnership with the words "You're trouble". Robbie telling Santos to keep a lid on the incident only for her to literally call someone to talk about it as he walks away said a lot. Not sure how the Langdon situation will play out but it feels like a certainty that he comes back in on his own to offer help during the incoming shitstorm, question is if Robbie will allow it.

It seems almost a certainty robby will accept it because he has consistently shown a willingness to break some rules if it is objectively going to save lives but he will probably have some harsh conditionals and force Langdon to take some time off and get his poo poo together. They already showed how thinly he’s stretched with only two critical patients.

A small moment I really liked in episode 10 was when Langdon was stressing out about Santos catching onto him and telling Robby and he distracted himself (and, I'm sure in his mind, others) by talking about randomly making salmon for his family. Recontextualized the surprise puppy they had been talking about. Nice, well-observed detail on top of his increasingly paranoid glances.

Wondered if they’d do a segment where someone understood Tagalog & the nurses gossiping. Buddy had fun with that once when he was working fast food & a couple in line were being incredibly profane in their language, & at end of their order asked them in same language if they wanted a drink with that.

Like the surgeon lady who seemingly ended their partnership with the words "You're trouble". In her defense, she called Dr. García (I think that is the surgeon's name) to ask her to please keep a lid on what she had already told her, but given her previous reaction I didn't really understand why she bothered at all, except as a form of attention-seeking behavior. Other stuff this episode was kind of predictable and yeah, the show moralizes a bit, but it's very good at what it's attempting to be, which isn't a medical mystery series. The next episode is going to be brutal.

Caesar Saladin posted:drat the rubber special effects guys must have had an interesting week with that one This and Children of Men seem to be tied for most realistic birthing scene. I'm genuinely wondering if the Pitt-Fest shooter is actually the incel kid, or if it's just some other rando. Only because if he had it out for those specific girls, wouldn't they (and therefore he) be in school? Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought it was taking place on a weekday, which is why the mother faked her illness to go to the ER since she didn't want her son in school. Which isn't to say some high school kids wouldn't skip school for a music fest, or that a kid with his problems wouldn't decide to shoot some other location, but it's almost that his potential shooting has been played up so much I almost expect them to swerve on it. But it does seem like we know what McKay did to earn her ankle monitor. Seems to have assaulted her ex's new GF, what with that mention of the restraining order.

My mom was an E.R. nurse and I'd visit her at work all the time. Like, I couldn't hang out with her in patient rooms, but I could be in the staff lounge area or the charge desk if there was nothing going on. This was 20 years ago though. The crazy thing was I was allowed to rock and play with the babies that didn't have anyone visit them. Sharp contrast today where the wards are locked down tight and newborns have baby lowjacks.

Hyrax Attack! posted:Good point although I think just wandering around isn’t a HIPAA issue if he’s not on a computer or handling prescriptions. Seems like a high traffic area with computers secured. So the fun thing about HIPAA is that it only applies to people who work in, or adjacent to, healthcare. So Robbie's step-son isn't bound by it, the same way that you or I* aren't bound by it if we happen to see our neighbor in the ER getting something removed from someplace they never should have stuck it. It definitely becomes tricky when it comes to friends or family being invited into nominally staff-only areas and then obtaining PII that way, so I'll leave that to people more knowledgeable than me to discuss. And then on top of all that, you have to understand EVERY hospital is horrendous with HIPAA. People gossip, and it sucks. I'll admit I might have violated HIPAA at least once when I was young. I told my parents I saw my landlord in the hospital I was working at when I was like 21, literally first job out of college. I didn't, and still don't, know what she was there for, so maybe not a violation? Over 20 years ago at this point.** *Assuming you or I only see them in the ER in a non-professional capacity. **OH GOD that was really over 20 years ago?

The unit nurses are supposed to remove the baby lojack before I get up there, and I always double check to make sure they do, but the one time I didn't... Of course it was still on and alarms and strobes started blaring and the unit went on lockdown until the doors could be overridden by security. It was a little embarrassing and a bit comical because if you knew me, you'd know the last thing I want in my life is a baby.

There probably will be social consequences and we definitely haven't seen the last of Langdon, but I don't think the show's going to condemn Santos for it

It would be great in season 2 if Langdon comes back on probation and Santos avoids him like the plague only for him to finally get her alone and thank her for giving him a kick in the rear end to get clean, but that he was still right about her additude. Also, I didn't read flirty from Garcia, probably because I worked with people like her that file people into poo poo lists and don't remove them even if the person gets better and becomes really good at their job.

I wish I waited to watch this ep... cliffhanger is killing me. At least I now have ER to fill some gaps but it doesn't hit quite the same. Also now watching ER, I'm seeing it's pretty different from The Pitt and Chricton's estate trying to sue over it is a bit of a reach. Only similarity imo is that it's set in the ER and stars Noah Wyle. The format of it is totally unique. Of course there is overlap in any show set in an emergency department

Their argument is that The Pitt started as an ER spin-off and was then retooled after the estate rejected it. Which is true, but they probably don't have a leg to stand on because of said retooling.
