Episode Report Card Wing Chun: D | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT Mars Attacks
By Wing Chun | Season 7 | Episode 3 | Aired on 10.25.2000
In the next trauma room, Luka, Lisa, and Chen work on Danny. Luka says he has some breath sounds on the left, orders meds, announces that he'll intubate, and tells Lisa to prep for a chest tube on the left hand side. And to pass the dutchie. Things are tense. Time is of the essence. Luka matter-of-factly tells Lisa to put in the chest tube. She replies, "I can't. I'm a nurse." They argue for a moment; she keeps refusing until he yells, "Go!" She starts, but quickly recovers and calls for a ten blade.
In the hall, Mr. K. soaks some rags in the water fountain before being chased back to his exam room by Dr. Dave. Various costumed personages still litter the halls. Paramedics wheel in a costumed twenty-three-year-old virgin -- I mean, "male" -- who's experiencing chest pain, and who bridles when Dr. Dave tries to cut his costume in order to examine him.
Okay, that guy I said was Danny? That Luka and Lisa were working on? That wasn't Danny. Sorry. Mark is working on Danny, with the crushed foot. He asks where Benton is, and Lily says she thinks he quit. Danny is losing foot pulse, and Mark announces that he needs to get to the OR "now." Lily says AGAIN that they're short on surgeons. Hey, any of you sci-fi types have an extra eyeliner pencil? Great -- would you mind wheeling over to that big clear plastic board at the desk and scrawling "WE GET IT" across it? Because we get it. At least, I get it. Do you? Yeah, I thought you probably did. Lily adds, "I thought we were closing to traumas!" Mark snaps, "Yeah, well, it's a little late for that now!" Um. What was that? Mark, did you just snap at Lily that it was too late to close to trauma? Who told dispatch that County could take three major and ten minor? Because I was watching the show three minutes ago and I'm pretty sure I heard you say it was you. So get on out there to the ambulance bay where more and more patients are still streaming in, and see if Pam will give you a boost onto the roof of her rig so that you can attempt to get over yourself. "A little late for that." I'm sure your mother thought that many times before you annoyed her to death. Lily says she'll go get Elizabeth...
...who is revving up a piece of equipment that looks like nothing so much as a drill. Lily tells Elizabeth that she has a patient with possible compartment syndrome. Elizabeth asks her to stabilize him, and promises she'll be there as soon as she can. Lily says that, in that case, they'll need the digital striker. Weaver tells her to call the OR, and Chuny informs her that it's under the sink, where Mark stowed it after stealing it from upstairs. Elizabeth tells Lily to tell Mark to use it, adding that he must give Elizabeth the readings. Elizabeth uses that drill-looking thing to drill something. Lydia runs in to tell Weaver that the cops have come to arrest Gloria for (according to Frank) writing bad cheques. It sounds like Frank isn't sufficiently challenged in his position. Bounce him! Bring back Jerry!
