Bar's open, guys. The usual, sir?
This is for you.
What is it?
It's a wound people can see.
Problem?
Leave.
Cancelled?
Yes!
Are you going to do this every time you lose a patient?
I'm the doctor, it's my call.
If you lean on us, you will feel yourself turn a corner.
You're mad.
We're all mad.
(CRIES) Daddy, why don't you love us anymore?
(LAUGHS)
Did you hear the good news? Linda's job's been advertised.
Your application. Please Nik, you're the sanest person in this place.
You know your potential and it will destroy you.
You're not management material.
Dr Wells did write you a glowing reference and I believe you were once engaged.
That was five years ago.
You must be going crazy. He's got that thing where the, uh, song goes round and round in your head. Maybe it's like hiccups. You just need a big scare.
What are you afraid of?
Your family are coming together but it's not your whole family. Do you think there might be some trauma around that?
Are you OK?
Do you think our family will ever feel right again?
I've got a bad feeling.
It's like I'm outside my body watching myself.
