Sides for episode 9.19
Dates are 2/22 - 3/5.
Aidan doesn't seem injured, his parents are. So, he's not a peds patient. After reading the sides all the way through I think its Alex too (thought it could have been Jo or Meredith earlier).
Bike Messenger - Dr. Vara approached Dr. Caine who is taking care of an injured bike messenger. He/she tells Dr. Caine to page Dr. Garrity, he/she is leaving for the TED confernence in 4 hours. The messenger says his/her roommate went last year and got David Blaine's autograph. Dr. Vara beams and says "High five!". Messenger stares at her, Dr. Vara looks down and sees the badly mangled hand.
Scruffy guy - Dr. Smith is finishing up an exam on scruffy guy. He asks if he can go smoke, doctor says if he wants to die, Scruffy says sweetie, I don't need a lecture. Dr. Smith tells him he was just in an accident, sweetie, sit your butt down. Scruffy sits.
Dr. Goyle/Parker (there's a mother in the sides also but no separate side for her, probably casting both from the side). ER - Dr. Davis goes up to a mother there with her sick son Parker, 4. Parker is limp and unresponsive. Parker is too weak to answer Dr. Davis. His mother says his fever spiked again, he's usually an energetic kid, something is wrong. She looks at Dr. Davis who hasn't moved an inch.
Later in the ER - Parker is hooked to an IV. His mother is talking to Dr. Goyle telling him/her that Parker is cranky, not sleeping, has chapped lips and today a rash. Dr. Goyle asks how she is doing and if she is getting enough sleep. She says of course not, she was up all night with her son. Dr. Goyle asks if its just her or is there a boyfriend, partner, husband? She tells him its just her. Dr. Goyle says she's all Parker has, especially when he's sick like this and that's a lot of pressure on her. Mother asks Dr. Goyle if he/she is a psychiatrist. Dr. Goyle asks her to listen for a moment but the mother knows that he's no doctor, he's a psychiatrist. Dr. Goyle tries to calm her down as she realizes these people think she's crazy.
Later - Parker's room. Dr. Davis walks into Parker's room and finds him sitting up, coloring with a hospital tray on the table from his lunch. Parker is practically like a new kid. His mother thanks Dr. Davis for saving her son. Parker gives his mother a drawing. She's happy to have her son back.
Elyse/Vince - ER day. Dr. Davis is stabilizing a hugely pregnant Elyse. She's groaning and writhing in pain. She asks if her baby is ok. Dr. Davis rolls her on her side. Elyse asks if she's (baby) ok and can Dr. D hear a heartbeat. Dr. Davis says not yet, rolls Elyse, adjusts the fetal band to a new position. Says "c'mon, c'mon". Elyse asks what is happening, Dr. Davis says the baby is breach. Dr. Davis rolls Elyse back over just as the baby's heartbeat plummets. Elyse asks what is happening. Dr. D tells her the baby is upside down and the pressure has caused the heart to stop. Dr. D is trying to turn the baby around, Elyse is afraid and in pain. Dr. Davis tries to calm Elyse as the nurse arrive in a flurry to take Elyse to the OR.
Nicu day - Dr. Hall and Vince Cruse arrive at the Nicu. Vince looks shell shocked. Dr. Hally points out the baby. Vince says she's perfect. Dr. Hall explains they have her on oxygent as a precaution but she is stable. Asks Vince if he wants to hold her. Vince cradles his baby.
ICU Night - Vince with Elyse. She is unconscious with tubes everywhere. Vince is talking to her, telling her they are a team, she has to wake up and not leave them. He told their little girl and now he's telling her - they are all supposed to be together. He's just about breaking down as Dr. Hall and Dr. Smith approach. He sees them and asks if they can show him where NICU is again. He tells Elyse the doctors are there and he's going to see their baby. Love you. Dr. Hall and Vince leave to go to NICU. Dr. Smith stays to care for Elyse.
Outside NICU, night. Through the window we see Dr. Hall has just told Vince Elyse has died. Vince is devastated, breaks down, absolutely wrecked.
Will add the rest after someone posts. The forum won't let me add all of it to this post.
Paul/Rachel/Social Worker/Aidan - An ambulance brings in Rachel Dawson, 40s. She's been in a car accident and is banged up and in pain. She's asking where her son and husband are, the paramedic tells her they are right behind her.
Paul is Rachel's husband. He's being brought in and weakly calls to Rachel and tells her he's there. Asks where his son is . The paramedic tells him not to worry, they have him.
The paramedics unload a boy, 10, with cuts on his wrists. Dr. Clark asks if he's Aidan. Aidan says yes and asks if his parents died. Dr. Clark says no, they're inside and he'll see them soon. Aidan is scared and in shock.
In the ER, Paul is being prepped to go to the OR. As they start to wheel him he sees his son. Tells him he's OK and tells him to stay with mommy.
Rachel's room, night. She's asleep with bandages on her head. Aidan says Momma!, reaches out and touches her face. Her eyes flutter, she sees him. Aidan tries to wrap his arms around her but she is shrinking away, terrified. Asks what are you doing, who are you? Aidan says its me mom, Aidan. She's disoriented and doesn't recognize him. She asks again who are you, yells help! help!. A nurse arrives just as Dr. Smith arrives. Aidan is backing away as Rachel screams what's happening?
The ER is bursting with activity. A little boy, Aidan, runs by with a social worker chasing after him. Aidan is running through the crowd in tears. Dr. Clark steps out and cuts him off, holding him. The social worker is grateful, apologies to Dr. C, tells him Aidan is a runner. Tells Aidan they are going to go to a hotel where he can stay until... Aidan says he doesn't want to go, Dr. C. asks if he can stay there, social worker says hotel is standard protocol. Dr. Clark whispers to the social worker that what he needs is to get sleep and feel safe. Says the social worker can stay there too, does that work? Social worker considers then nods.
Family waiting room, night: Dr. Clark enters and sees only the social worker on the cell phone freaking out, she is saying she alerted security and the nurses and has looked all over. Dr. Clark asks her where Aidan is. She says she went to the rest room and he was gone when she returned. Dr. Clark asks when did you lose him? She says about a half hour ago.
Cafeteria, night. Dr. Clark and Aidan sit in the cafeteria eating ice cream from a giant 2 gallon container. Dr. Clark says you're in the semi finals, what position do you play, Aidan says left defender, Dr. Clark says left defender is crucial. Aidan asks why his mother doesn't know who he is. Dr. Clark explains that she hit her head pretty bad and when its healing sometimes we forget things, even important things, for a little while. Aidan says so she'll remember me? Dr. C says I think so. Pager goes off, Dr. C sets it aside and focuses on Aidan. Tells him he needs to stay with the social worker. Aidan wants to stay with Dr. C. Dr. C tells him he needs to go help his parents get better so he/she needs Aidan to stay with the social worker, can he help out with that? Aidan nods.
Family waiting room, night. The social worker sits across from Aidan who is set up on a sofa with a blanket and pillows. Dr. Clark is crouched down to talk to him. Aidan says "he's not waking up?". Dr. Clark says not tonight, hoping you can see him tomorrow. Aidan asks about his mom, Dr. C hopes he'll see her tomorrow too. Dr. C. rises and tells Aidan he needs to get some sleep. Aidan asks Dr. C "are you going too?". Dr. Clark pauses then says no, I'm gonna stay here. He sits on the couch, kicks off his shoes and settles in. Tells Aidan he played a little Left Defender, Aidan says you played soccer? He can't quite believe it, asks if he scored any goals, Dr. C says yes, Aidan is settling in and relaxed, perhaps for the first time all day.
If Aidan is recurring I guess he stays with one of the doctors while his parents recover (never happen IRL but its GA). The child could end up staying with any of them, even if its Alex with him that night. I don't see the point of Alex playing a father figure for multiple episodes at this point in his life but there's a few episodes between now and then. IMO there's definitely a theme going on here about children losing a parent(s), being left, etc. The side with Elyse dying and Vince with the baby read a lot like its trying to be like ER's Love's Labor Lost (emotionally, not the exact medical condition) but it could be me reading into it though as that episode of tv is one I will always remember.
My guesses: Dr. Clark is Owen, (or one of the interns - Shane or Heather!! - maybe), Dr. Vara with the Bike Messenger is Callie, Dr. Smith with the Scruffy Guy reads like Bailey with the sass, and I think Alex is on the Parker peds case.
