14.13 "Atonement"

Let's see, Skye's back.

Lots of mentions of Julia she's involved in a naming ceremony in the NICU.

Patient stories are intertwined. Sam and Gates have an 11 year old kid that fell into the frozen lake. Pratt has an old guy that jumped in after the boy.

The boy needs to be put on ECMO (heart bypass machine until he warms up)

Turns out the old guy is a former prison doc who executed inmates and is trying to make amends to their families before he dies from cancer. He carried the death sentence on the boy's father a few years back.

There is mention of being shorthanded when it comes to surgeons because of a "big conference"

Turns out it's an ice hockey game between trauma and ortho. Neela is still with ortho and ends up being their goalie

Morris is playing on the team with the trauma surgeons and taunting Neela. She trips him with her stick. There is at least one throw down on the ice and another back at County afterwards. Neela enjoys the violence. Looks like trauma won.

Dubenko asks how his team is (for once it looks like his knee is spared injury). Skye says they need ibuprofen, a hot tub and wine. There's some subtext there as he says he likes the way she thinks.

Morris goes back to treating ER patients sadly.

Sam and Gates end their shift with a drink together at Ikes. Very flirty, hello triangle.

Other things going on this ep: Grady's around. There's a junkie that does odd jobs around Skye's apartment and she's given him vicodin in the passed. He shows up drug seeking at County and Sam overhears. Skye can't do anything with Sam around. When the junkie leaves Sam intimates that Skye must be sleeping with the junkie and he's too young for her. Skye says no way. Later, junkie comes back in, badly beaten. He broke into a car to steal money to buy drugs. Skye blames herself.

Pratt and Bettina are looking at "grown up apartments". Pratt gets uneasy when the realator mistakes them for a married couple. Bettina calls him on it.

There is not even a mention of Abby let alone any indication she is in this episode. She presumably took her two weeks off to go to Croatia.

So..this is the last episode written before the strike...and the first one that won't benefit at all from re-writes....must be interesting to see the first draft.

I hope Abby's gone...gone to see Luka and Joe, that is

ETA: Are they really going for a Sam/Gates....affair?

[Jill]

I thought with that title Abby would be in this episode.

So if Abby is in Croatia I wonder if Luka and Joe will return with her? If not I'm wondering what Luka's excuse will be?

We may not have any answers for awhile with the strike going on.

[andrejia]

I don't think that IF she went, there're going to keep Abby there for more than 1-2 episodes. Given that GV will have more three, they'll come up with something to have him off-screen.Looking for a job, maybe? I don't know...and finding another excuse to have him stay there again...not going to buy that...

more info still no abby!

In the additional pages, Sam and Gates squabble a bit about the best way to raise Truman’s core temp. Chaz invites Pratt for coffee to see if he is okay (he witnessed tension between Pratt and Betina that morning). Pratt turns him down, saying he is fine. But the notes say he is not so fine.

Truman prays with a rosary for Gabriel. At one point, he grabs a peek at his own EKG and explains he was a doctor at Stateville penitentiary.

Pratt approaches Truman with the results of his x-ray, but Truman already knows he has metastatic prostate cancer that has spread to his lungs and bones. He seems to believe it is his retribution for killing Gabriel’s father and others like him when he administered lethal injections to death row inmates. He says bad things happen when men try to do God’s work. At first Truman thought the death penalty was just, but he changed his mind. As Storm described above, Truman has been tracking down the loved ones of the men he killed and trying to make amends.

Later, Truman tells Julia the story of a young man slated for the death penalty after being convicted of killing a cop. When the young man was on the table, Truman gave him three different lethal agents but none killed him. Finally, after moving the IV, Truman was successful. Seven months later, he learned the young man was framed. Truman believed God tried to stop him from killing the man, but he didn’t heed the warning, so he can never hope for forgiveness. Julia wonders if guilt has become Truman’s reason for living, and says that he needs a better reason to go on. Truman gets upset, saying that he doesn’t want to go on. He begs her for answers--is it possible to atone? Can he possibly expect forgiveness? Julia tries to calm him, but he says he doesn’t want new-age mumbo jumbo. He wants a chaplain who believes in a “real God” and heaven and hell. Julia is rattled and leaves, though Pratt tries to comfort her.

Later we see Truman at a supply cart. He fills a needle with potassium chloride and starts to inject himself, which intercuts with flashbacks of him giving a lethal injection to a prisoner. Pratt finds him and knocks the needle out of his hand.

From coffe and pie board! i only go for the spoilers! but still dont like it! lol

Ohh .. great !
Abby's gone to Croatiaaaa !

[andrejia]

I sure hope so! But I try not to keep my hopes up because there are a lot of scenes unspoiled..not in this particular episode but......Although I truly think she actually went this time...

No Abby!

GETTING RID OF THE GUILT- KARI MATCHETT AND REIKO AYLESWORTH GUEST STAR-- Pratt (Mekhi Phifer) gets cold feet when Bettina (Gina Ravera) tries to take their relationship to the next level. Neela (Parminder Nagra) joins the Ortho's hockey team and is shocked to see who they are playing in the first game. A prison doctor comes into the ER after he tried to save a young boy from a freezing lake. Julia (guest star Reiko Aylesworth) tries to help the prison doctor get rid of his guilt after he reveals he gave the lethal injections to criminals on deathrow. Meanwhile, Gates (John Stamos) gets irritated with Sam ( Linda Cardellini) when she undermines his decisions. Scott Grimes also stars.

Yeah I just saw that on YouTube, she seems bitchy. I thought Moretti was going to be there for a while, but I guess he was just a "guest star" ! I actually liked him, except with Abby of course !

[hinkydoodle]

I didn't like Skye's whole not wanting the job then deciding she'd make the best of it by having sex with Dubenko in her office. But then two episodes ago she was really just bitchy for no reason. She didn't even seem like she wanted to be in the room with the one rape victim patient.

Maybe it's just the actress. She always looks bored.
