Waiting To Inhale

There's a little locked locker on the wall of the Pyxis room, where there's a little slot you drop them in. Of course, seconds later she comes back with the key and retrieves them, but it's awesome because of all the pill-heads on this show constantly scanning the floor for drugs, only Sam is going to trot over to that little box every time. So now whenever he finds something, she's going to get them there, and that's brilliant.

Out in the Virgin Mary hallway, a guy is replacing the smoke detectors, which reminds Jackie of how her daughter is insane. Something about today, maybe Harry, has reminded the king of her kingdom. She calls Kevin and tells him to get one of their regulars, a firefighter named Luis, to visit Grace and explain to her that the house is not just randomly going to burn down. They already have the best smoke detector they make; she can stand down for a little while. She can breathe.

Kevin's impressed, because that's very smart and also means that Jackie was thinking about her kids. Meanwhile, Eddie's still at the bar being creepy and then immediately changing the subject: "Is that your wife? I fuckin' love beer nuts!" Kevin is so easily played. Lucky for Nurse Jackie!

Gloria is having an adorable fight with a piece of tape from her desk dispenser when Jackie drops in. "First of all, Coop will not stop twittering. It is interfering with work and it's pissing me off." Gloria tells her about the formal complaint -- for "insubordination and general bitchiness" -- and Jackie sputters hilariously: "Insubord... Fuckin'-A Twitter tweetering fuckin' dickhead." Exactly.

The second thing is Sam. "Like every newly-sober person, he's convinced that everyone around him is an addict. It's like the born-again guy we had last year." Which, wouldn't it be funny if he were some kind of narc or sleeper and they chose him for that purpose? I mean, I don't think that's the case, but it's funny that we have a zealot at the same time as Jackie's drug-stealing has caused a crackdown.
