Luka and Doris lift the renal-failure patient onto a bed. Doris says her lungs are wet and she's not making any urine. Luka asks the patient why she missed her dialysis, and she replies, "I was having my hair done." Aw. Luka says, "It's nice to look good [and HE WOULD KNOW], but your health should come first, huh?" She quavers, "You think I look good?" Distractedly, he replies, "Yeah -- beautiful!" She says it's for her birthday, which is today. He wishes her a happy birthday; she thanks him. Where was he on my birthday? He gives Lily his order for medication, and asks the patient if he can call a family member. He touches her chest and she moans quietly. He apologizes quickly and says, "Sternal tenderness." Doris mutters, "This is why idiots need to stop for ambulances." Doris! Luka orders a couple more tests, one of which has to do with the patient's heart. She asks, "What's wrong with my heart?" He explains that her fluid overloaded from missing her dialysis, and that there's fluid collected around her heart -- possibly from the renal failure, but it could also be from the accident. She says, "Oh, my!" He asks for some more medication and calls for an ultrasound. Lily says they're using it in the next room, and Luka yells, "Then get me another one!"
