Elliot Quote #17
Quote from Elliot in My Old Lady
Carla: What the hell happened to "I'll be right back"? I can't believe I actually started to think I'd been wrong about you. That woman needs her doctor to tell her something, anything, and you run away? Are you even gonna look at me?
Elliot: I've been deciding what drink to get. I've been standing here trying to choose between cherry soda and ginger ale, and you know what? It's a toss-up. I mean, either way I get a cold drink, right? And it would be impossible for me to kill someone with this decision but I still can't make it. I think I'm in trouble here.
Carla: Look... I don't think these kinds of decisions are easy for anyone. And if it's any consolation, one of the reasons I never liked you is you're already better than most of the doctors that come through here. And to be honest, I kinda liked being the only smart, strong chick in the joint.
Elliot: You sort of just complimented me.
Carla: A little bit.
Elliot: OK, I'm gonna have a ginger ale.
Carla: Good start.
Elliot: That clot isn't going anywhere on its own, so let's push the thrombolytics.

Quote from Dr. Cox
Dr. Cox: What now, Dr. Barbie?
Elliot: Mrs. Guerrero is a forty-year-old lupus patient who presented with a shortness of breath so I started her on a heparin drip and ordered a VQ scan. I just wanted to run that by you.
Dr. Cox: One. Two. Three.
Elliot: So, shall I continue with heparin-
Dr. Cox: It's really important that you let me get to ten.
Elliot: I just thought-
Dr. Cox: Listen, cookie. You've been here over a month. This is Medicine 101. I don't want everything little run by me. I don't wanna give my two cents' worth. But if you ever do want to know my opinion, rest assured it will always be that you're an incredible pain and every time I see your Kewpie-Doll face it just makes me want to pick you up and shake you until all the hours of my life that you've wasted fall out. Now laugh.
Elliot: What?
Dr. Cox: Laugh so that she doesn't think I'm yelling at you. [all laugh]
Carla: Oh, how fun was that?
Quote from J.D.
Mrs. Tanner: Listen, Dr. Dorian, there is not one thing I regret as I lay here right now. I'm ready. I really am.
J.D.: You have had an amazing life.
Mrs. Tanner: Good. Now we agree. Aren't there other patients you need to be seeing?
J.D.: Me? No, I've been off for two hours.
Mrs. Tanner: So with your precious free time, you've been sitting in a hospital room talking to an old lady. What about your list? How many of these things have you done? For that matter, how many times have you sat on the grass and done nothing, hmm? You need to start taking some time for yourself, young man. Promise me you'll do that.
J.D.: I will.
Mrs. Tanner: Good. Now, get outta here. Go on.
Quote from J.D.
Mrs. Tanner: You're gonna have to shut your mouth at some point. Sweetie, I'm 74 years old. I'm ready to go.
J.D.: Yeah, but with dialysis you could live another 80 or 90 years.
Mrs. Tanner: I think you're being a little irrational.
J.D.: No, I'm not.
Mrs. Tanner: Everybody dies some time.
J.D.: No, they don't.
