Quotes 

• Sarah Reese : You paged about a consult?

  Daniel Charles : Yeah. Yeah. Um... 50-something guy, post-op after getting shot by a patient.

  Sarah Reese : Is this a joke?

  Daniel Charles : No. I'm serious. Give me your clinical evaluation of my recovery.

  Sarah Reese : No residual anger or fear.

  Daniel Charles : Mm-hmm.

  Sarah Reese : Normal intellectual and emotional functioning. You seem like you have moved on.

  Daniel Charles : Yeah. And you should, too.

  Sarah Reese : Excuse me?

  Daniel Charles : I'm just wondering if today was less about your patient and more about lingering fears for our safety. It is certainly true that a very few patients can be dangerous. But the overwhelming majority are... harmless, and in fact very grateful for our help. Only they can't get that help if you come to work scared.

  Sarah Reese : I'm not scared.

  Daniel Charles : This is not an accusation, Doctor. I just want you to know that every psychiatrist goes through this at some point or another. And then it passes. And it'll pass for you, too.

• Sharon Goodwin : You're looking more rested.

  Daniel Charles : Trying my best. What's the word?

  Sharon Goodwin : The board is deciding whether to put metal detectors at all the hospital entrances, so I have to go prepare my recommendation.

  Daniel Charles : Which way you leaning?

  Sharon Goodwin : Towards "yes".

  Daniel Charles : Really? Doesn't that kind of fly in the face of being a trusted community institution? You know, putting up barriers between us and the people that we're trying to help?

  Sharon Goodwin : One of those people shot you in the gut, Daniel.

  Daniel Charles : Yeah, outside the hospital. What kind of detector's gonna stop that?

• Daniel Charles : How'd that metal detector thing turn out?

  Sharon Goodwin : I changed my mind.

  Daniel Charles : Really?

  Sharon Goodwin : Yeah. I saw a woman today who almost killed her baby because she didn't trust us. And I thought "How can we encourage people to trust us more if we don't show them trust first?".

  Daniel Charles : Couldn't agree more.
