    WOW!! GH:NS started out with a boom and it ended with one too. The twist and turns in the shoot out made my heart beat fast. The part when Robin ran out of nowhere blew my mind. Especially, when Jason had to shoot the guy that held her captive. Robin and Jason have an amazing chemistry on screen. At the end I was like, "WTF?!" It was a total shock when I saw that it was ROBIN on the gurney as and she actually saw herself. That was an excellent way to end the series, or season. I loved it! The fact that Patrick was quick to get over Patrick annoyed me but, the fact Jason was there made me happy. Because of this Robin and Jason beat out Scrubs in my book.moreless

    ADD QUOTES
    • Robin: I have learned to hate the night shift.

    • Regina: If you're seriously afraid of not graduating, then it's time for me to be petrified. Jolene: I'm just saying. The only one who's got it locked is Leyla. Regina: Huh, you think it's too late for me to improve my chances by sleeping with a doctor. Leo: If it'll serve the greater good, I'm willing to make the sacrifice.

    • Patrick: Oh, well, when the tests come back, we'll know if you need surgery. Patient: I don't want anybody cutting my head open. Robin: If you do need an operation, Dr. Drake's the best. Just ask him.

    • Jordan: Who would have guessed the night shift janitor would turn out to be the leader of "The Saints." Ha, ha. I loved that group.

    • Spinelli: I'm afraid the Angel of Mercy of the formerly Fair Jolene is more like an Angel of Death...

    • Jolene (to Medcam lawyer Jordan Lovell): If you were sick, would you check yourself into a Mecam hospital?

    • Young Toussaint: Tell me this isn't going to be me someday. Toussaint: Oh, not if you're lucky. Work on it. Young Toussaint: Well, at least you're not bald. I guess... that's something. Toussaint: I must be in Hell.

    • Epiphany: You almost died on that table. Dr. Drake did an extraordinary job pulling you through. Patrick: Nurse Johnson, I think that's the first compliment you've ever paid me. Epiphany: I said you did a good job. Don't get carried away. Patrick: Actually, you said "extraordinary." But I'll take it.

    • Doctor: What did I promise? No scarring. See for yourself. Patient Barrett: Thank you. Doctor: The burns on your face were superficial. The bandages were a precaution and they worked. You're just plain gorgeous, Ms. Barrett.
