Always a Catch

Wallace Boden: Emily.

Emily Foster: Chief.

Wallace Boden: I had an interesting phone call today from a Dr. Enright. Apparently the dean of Northwestern Medical School.

Emily Foster: What'd she say?

Wallace Boden: She asked how you were doing. She said she wanted you to re-enroll.

Emily Foster: Huh.

Wallace Boden: I told her I had a pretty good idea of what kind of doctor you would make, as you've already blown us away here as a paramedic. Be a shame to see you go. But she'd be lucky to have you.

Emily Foster: That's really nice of you, Chief.

Wallace Boden: Meant every word.

Emily Foster: The thing is... I've already decided. I'm gonna decline the offer.

Wallace Boden: Why?

Emily Foster: I went to med school for all the wrong reasons. And it was every man for himself. It was cutthroat. And I was... holding the knife with the rest of them. Except... it ate me up inside. Then I came here, and everybody was like, "It's a family at 51." And... I thought, "There's a catch." There's always a catch. Except, well, there wasn't. Not one I could see. And I realized something. I like myself here. It is a family.

Wallace Boden: And you are a part of it. Otis.

Brian Zvonecek: What you need, Cheif?

Wallace Boden: Emily Foster drinks on me tonight.

Randall McHolland: Is that just for her or everyone?
