Like always, Angus Mario were arguing again. A couple of patients had been brought it after their boat capsized and so the guys at first argued whether or not the fact the boyfriend risked his own life to save his girlfriend’s was romantic. Angus of course thought it yet Mario was a natural pessimist. Therefore when they found a ring in their patient’s pocket, Angus’s initial reaction was to tell Sophie that her boyfriend had been planning to propose to her. Yet Mario had to burst the bubble by saying if Killian really did want to marry her then why didn’t propose when it looked like he could die?
So the guys would have continued to have argue about the subject but another patient of theirs decided to way in and call the situation what it was. The plot of the movie Titanic. Otherwise known as one of the most romantic movies ever made.
And so Ted shared a good laugh with Angus. Though he no felt like laughing when he saw something he shouldn’t have. He was later having his blood taken when he saw that Mario had accidentally stuck himself with the needle. Which in his case just made him feel awful because suddenly there was a chance he might have infected Mario with HIV.
Ted you see had been diagnosed during the Reagan administration yet he’s been careful about it ever since. But after their incident, he saw the worry in Mario’s eyes and in his own way tried to explain that it didn’t have to affect Mario like it did him.
Only Mario didn’t want to hear it nor for that matter did he want to acknowledge that he had to be checked out. So he basically did his best to ignore what happened and simply refused to talk about it. And unfortunately Mario was acting just like Carla – Pineda’s friend.
Carla had been the one to go looking for Pineda and she had told Pineda (in her own way) about her cancer. Yet Carla was refusing all treatment despite her pregnancy. She said that those things would merely buy her a couple of years tops. And thus she saw them as a waste of time.
But Pineda didn’t. So she went behind Carla’s back and created a donation drive in order to find Carla a possible donor.
Meanwhile Killian the boyfriend ended up getting the surgery he needed but that the surgeon hadn’t wanted to give him. Though one should never doubt Rorish’s capabilities. She essentially hunted down Cole and did not let up until he agreed to perform on her patient. So what do you know, guess you can bully your way into surgery!
And elsewhere in the hospital, Dr. Taylor was forced to play baby-sitter. A kid whose mom had been injured in a car accident apparently also needed to be watch while she had surgery. So Taylor spent most of his rounds checking up on his doctors but doing his best to shield a pre-teen from some of his bloodier cases.
Yet Christa who had been put on all emergencies outside of emergency room ended up running into some problems with treating Rebecca Kahn. Rebecca was having problems with breathing but no one was around to remove the patient’s headmask. So Christa tried reaching out to Neal and the problem with that was the way things have been awkward between them since they had drinks. And yet she had pushed that to the side to ask for help.
And he had been busy with his patient. So Christa did what she thought was impossible. Which she later called shoving a square peg into a round hole.
But Angus found out about Mario’s situation in the end. Mario had put a prescription in under Angus’s name and so when the pharmacy called Angus – he immediately knew the prescription had really been for. So he confronted Mario.
Though that didn’t get Mario to open to him. If anything Mario only ever opened up with Ted who he had spoken about parents with. It seems Mario’s parents had forgotten for three days and so he had stayed with a Mrs. Clarkson. And sadly Mario had enjoyed his time so much that he didn’t actually want to return home when his parents were finally found.
So Ted ultimately got an insight into why Mario was as closed off as he was. And the two men became friends right before Ted’s death.
And later at the end of the episode of, there was a proposal hours in the making and Cole asked Rorish out on a date. She said no but Sophie ended up saying yes to Killian.
THE END!
