Come on.

What are you? Nuts?

You just retired, Mike.

Enjoy it.

You can't wait out here. We'll page you

as soon as we know anything.

OK, I'm gonna go over

and check the instruments.

Better get gloves on. I wanna check

the wound. You got the draw sheet?

- On three. Gently. Two, three.

- Pick him up.

- OK, gurney out of the room.

- We'll get some gloves on.

I'd like some orthopaedic instruments.

- I'll check the elbow. Check his knee.

- The bullet is probably out.

The patella is completely shattered.

The knee seems completely unstable.

Let's have a double prep,

a Betadine prep and double draping.

- How's his pressure doing?

- It's fair.

That's good enough.

You better start the elbow.

- We're gonna need some irrigation.

- We'll at least try here.

Can we have irrigation now, please?

Do you want me closer or further?

I will be waking him up shortly. Soon as

we get the cast on, you can wake him up.

Finish it and we'll transfer him over.

- Running low on water.

- Bring the gurney in.

- Gurney!

- Slit the shorts. Could you cut 'em open?

- Slip the shorts off.

- See if you can lift him up.

Slowly and gently on three. You ready?

Two, three.

- Watch his arm here.

- OK.

OK. You all set?

- All right, let's get ready to transfer.

- Careful of his foot.

Get his IV over.

It's time to take your vital signs.

You're in ICU.

I'm gonna take your blood pressure.

Just relax.

Where... am... I?

- You belong to me now.

- That's all right by me, honey.

- Care for a little more ham?

- No. No. No.

How about some tomato?

Hey, hey.

Let me do somethin' here.

Didn't hurt you there, did I?

Slip this... Put this on my ear.

You wanna hear,

you gotta stick it in your ear.

- I gotta what?

- You gotta stick it in your...

- You gotta stick it in your ear.

- Oh.

Yeah, right. There you go.

- I don't hear nothin'. It's all over.

- Wait a minute.

Call my mother.

~ Oh, say can you see ~

All right, all right.

Let's see if you're still alive.

Yeah, it's still tickin'.

I think you're all right.

All right.

- You gonna take that garbage outta here?

- No more of this garbage. OK.

- Are you comin' back?

- You know it, sweetheart.

- We'll be seein' a lot of each other.

- Oh. Well, I'll just be hangin' around.

- Hello, Mike.

- Ahh.

Hey, gentlemen.

Well... I asked them to hang me

out there on that clothes line.

Thought I'd dry out faster, you know.

They're givin' me some

good-feelin' stuff, I'll tell you that.

I'm learnin' all about

that anatomy, like, um,

femurs, patellas, fibulas.

All that good stuff.

I talk to them at night, you know.

No autographs yet?

I'm savin' the first spot for my roomie,

but he hasn't come by to sign as yet.
