Season 1, Episode 1: A Hard Day’s Night

“The game: They say a person either has what it takes to play, or they don’t. My mother was one of the greats. Me, on the other hand… I’m kinda screwed. Like I said… I’m screwed.”

I can’t think of any one reason why I’d want to be a surgeon… but I can think of 1,000 reasons why I should quit. They make it hard on purpose. There are lives in our hands. There comes a moment when it’s more than just a game, and you either take that step forward, or turn around and walk away. I could quit, but here’s the thing… I love the playing field. So, I made it through my first shift. We all did. The other interns are all good people, you’d like them, I think. I don’t know, maybe. I like them. Oh, and I changed my mind. I’m not going to sell the house. I’m gonna keep it. I’ll have to get a couple of roommates, but, it’s home, you know?
