ER

(Luka and Gordana see Chuck and Susan about to kiss in a room with a dead body in it) Gordana: (in Croatian) Was that a dead body in there? Luka: (in Croatian) Uhm... American doctors can be very unprofessional.

Pratt: If it's viral, why would you give him antibiotics? Romano: You've kept him here 2 hours. Call it a consolation prize.

(to Abby) Romano: If I wanted a nurse's opinion...well, I don't know what I'd do because quite frankly it's never happened.

Romano: A couple more Croatians, I could really clean house around here.

(Luka and Gordana converse in Croatian) Luka: Hey, I thought you would have left. What's wrong? Gordana: There's some sort of problem. They won't let Ante into the country. Luka: Why not? Gordana: The State Department is saying it's a visa problem, but because I'm not a next of kin, they won't tell me specifics. Luka: I'm sure it's just some sort of mix-up. Gordana: I've spent weeks trying to find someone to do this surgery, and now he's going to die because of bureaucracy.

(during a trauma) Chuck: It's the Marilyn Manson manicure. Gordana: (speaking Croatian) What's that mean? Luka: (speaking Croatian) The nail polish keeps the oxygen saturation probe from working.

Romano: You're a doctor? Gordana: Surgeon. I'm visiting from Croatia. Romano: Ah, what a coincidence. I'm also a visiting surgeon. May I buy you a cup of coffee or something? Luka: Hey! You been here long? Gordana: No. Romano: You two know each other? Luka: We went to the same medical school. Romano: No doubt. Luka: Gordana is here to observe a correction of a congenital heart repair on a young boy from Croatia. (speaking Croatian) You don't want to get too close to this one. Gordana: (speaking Croatian) Why not? Luka: (speaking Croatian) Let's just say it's not a good idea. Romano: What a beautiful language. Dr.Kovac, I don't want to keep you from your patients, and by the looks of the board, it looks like you're running a little behind. So it's a pleasure meeting you. (leaves) (the rest of this dialogue is spoken in Croatian) Gordana: He seems nice enough. Luka: He's a prince. It's good to see you. Gordana: It's good to see you, too, Luka. You look great. Luka: You, too. I wish I could have set up your surgery here. Gordana: I toured Mercy's facilities, it's a very modern hospital with all-new equiptment. Luka: Maybe it's just as well then. Gordana: That's not what I meant. Luka: It's okay, this place is falling apart. No money, no staff, it's perfect for me.

(Luka and Gordana are talking in Croatian) Luka: What? Gordana: You. Luka Kovac. ER doctor, living in Chicago. You've made quite a life for yourself. It's a long way from that room you shared with Stipe and Tomo. You could barely stand up in there. Luka: I know, I have scars from hitting my head in that place. Gordana: You don't go back much. You must be very busy. Luka: Not as busy as a surgeon. Gordana: Everybody's busy in America. Life is busy here, not like back home. You don't miss it? Luka: Sometimes I miss the ocean. The people... driving up the coast on a summer day. Gordana: Do you remember that time we drove to Vukovar after finals? You hit that goat! (laughs) Luka: (laughs) Oh my God. That was horrible. Gordana: It was hilarious. You and Tomo jumped out and tried to revive him. Luka: I was doing CPR, but Stipe refused to do mouth-to-mouth. Gordana: And Tomo wanted to put in a chest tube. Luka: That poor goat. Gordana: I think that was the first patient you ever lost. (laughs)

Carter: Do you have to go? I mean, my dad's flying in, I gotta do all the funeral arrangements... Abby: I just, I have to go get him. Carter: Why? Eric's been gone for weeks. What's one more day? Abby: He's off his meds, and if I don't go now he might disappear again. I'll be back tonight. John... Carter: Go. Go find your brother. My grandmother will still be dead when you get back.

Susan: Ah, look. I think you may have gotten the wrong impression today in exam 4? When you were looking for Carter. Luka: You mean with the flight nurse? Susan: Chuck. And technically, we're married. Luka: Oh! So it's technically o.k. to boff your husband in the hospital? Susan: We weren't boffing, we were talking. Luka: Good night Susan. Susan: It's still not the same as a patient's mother. Luka: Hey, at least I used an empty room.

Abby: You know Luka from Croatia? Gordana: We're old friends. We went to school together. He was what you call a character back then. Abby: Luka? Gordana: Oh, yes. Always playing practical jokes on the other students and the professors. Abby: Really? Gordana: You could always tell when Luka was in the building, because you could hear him laughing. You know that laugh of his, it's contagious. Abby: (shakes her head) He doesn't really laugh much at work. Gordana: He seems like he's changed. Abby: He's been through a lot, I guess. Gordana: Still, I thought I'd find him married to some American supermodel with three children and a dog. His wife Danijela would have wanted that.

Romano: What's your excuse for not taking this one Lizzie? No exposed bowel? Corday: Give it a rest Robert.

(seeing Gordana perform a surgical procedure in a trauma room) Carter: What are you doing? Romano: What does it look like? Carter: A law suit.

Susan: Hey, did Air Rescue leave yet? Frank: What, am I air traffic control now? Why don't you use the helicopter check system? Susan: What's that? Frank: Go up on the roof and check. If the helicopter isn't there, they left. Lewis: Frank, are you taking anything for your cholesterol? Frank: No. Lewis: Good!

Romano: (to Luka) How do you say "bite my big one" in Croatian?

Mrs. Reynolds: You're going to charge my insurance company 50 grand to tell me I needed to fart?

Abby: (to Jerry) Are you the only person in this hospital that doesn't know about my crazy family?

Pratt: Do you know how many patients I'm juggling? Weaver: Not enough if you have time for dancing in the hall!
