Inside the train car, Luka is not taking his eyes off Pin as the firefighters cut through the metal and move it aside, freeing Pin. Luka urgently asks for a backboard, and gently slides Pin, on his stomach, along the train-car floor toward him. Sars disappointedly asks, "Are those...three-quarter-length sleeves?" I assure her that Luka's sleeves are pulled up, and that he is not, in fact, wearing a woman's top. Luka ruffles Pin's bloody hair and checks his breathing with his stethoscope; Pin is still breathing and has "good air entry."
At County, Weaver has apparently just arrived and been briefed about what is sure to be her Happy Fun Shift. She asks Chen, "How many did you say we'd take?" Chen patiently replies, "I didn't; they're transporting all over the city." Weaver complains, "We're two docs down and a surgeon in the field!" Lisa asks Weaver if she should page Mark, and Randi interrupts, "He's at his competency testing!" Weaver, crutching out from behind the desk, tells Lisa to find out how many victims they're sending to County. Lisa says that "Malucci's on his way down with the first air-evac -- possible aortic rupture." Weaver crutches past Benton, who's trailed by William, and tells him that he's up. Benton breezily says he's got it, and Weaver corrects him that he should be headed for the elevator. She calls back toward the desk for someone to call CT and have them cancel all elective cases. Benton tells William to stay close, and to ask Benton any questions he might have, even though Benton might not be able to answer right away. Quinn comments that William has a nice ass, and Quinn is correct. Benton also tells William not to be surprised when the nurses tell him to get out of the way as Benton attends to the trauma victims: "It's their job. Just try not to knock anything over, okay?" "I don't need to stay?" William asks hopefully. "Only if you want to," Benton replies.
