Shaun decides to spend a 36-hour shift with Morgan at the hospital to avoid Lea.


  • All Take and No Give: Lea accuses Shaun of being this, and tells him that "Friendship is a two-way street."
  • Beware the Nice Ones: Lea, who is normally friendly and adorable with Shaun, is furious with him at the end of the episode.
  • Dead Person Conversation: At the end of the episode, still delirious from the surgery, Glassman begins seeing and talking to his daughter, who died many years earlier.
  • Hello, Attorney!: Lim shouts at a corrupt traffic court judge and spends a few hours in jail. After she is released, she encounters the male court prosecutor on the street. He is noticeably infatuated with her rebellious, competitive personality she showed in the courtroom and in her refusal to tell any of her colleagues about going to court or being locked up, out of fear that it may jeopardize her chances of being promoted to Chief of Surgery. They hook up shortly afterwards, but much to the prosecutor's dismay, Shaun and Morgan page Lim to the O.R. during their foreplay.
  • O.O.C. Is Serious Business: In the final scene, Shaun realizes he has crossed the line when Lea, who has always been nice to him, is very angry.
  • Took a Level in Jerkass: Lea accuses Shaun of this at the end of the episode. She says she was always a good friend and that Shaun acted like an jerk by ignoring her completely during the last two episodes and not even thinking about her feelings.
