Okay, this week’s episode of The Pitt wasn’t the best one I’ve ever seen (not enough Dana, maybe? Definitely not enough Santos-Garcia lesbian energy!), but even a mid episode of this show is so much better than half the swill out there right now. Plus, there was a genuinely lovely subplot this week that I won’t spoil yet, but know that it’s being talked about. Below, find absolutely every thought I had about Season 2, Episode 3 of The Pitt:
- Oh no, it’s the yelling guy from the end of the last episode!
- He’s still yelling!
- Did he have a breakdown while studying for the bar?
- Likely thing to happen!
- Well, at least the…priapism guy is okay now.
- As are the fighting cousins whose whole deal I never entirely figured out.
- Damn, they let an ASL patient wait this long without an interpretor?
- “Use the system. It’s what it’s there for.” I mean…sort of?
- Not to get all anti-capitalist, but I feel like the system is ultimately there to exploit its own failures for money.
- I want this potential child abuse case to resolve favorably, and I feel like it’s not going to :(
- In retrospect, I wish I weren’t drinking a smoothie during that up-close blood shot.
- Mmm, cool, that’s…an exposed brain.
- That’s right, Robby! Don’t ride your dumb little motorcycle anymore!
- Garcia’s here!!!
- Aw, I love this sweet Walmart greeter who’s trying to Walmart-greet all the patients.
- I want a more interesting storyline for McKay this season.
- Okay, learning from my past mistakes and putting down my smoothie for this fluid-draining scene with Louie.
- “Sharing meds which haven’t been prescribed to you is actually a real big no-no.” OH REALLY, LANGDON?
- Is the antagonistic vibe between Robby and Al-Hashimi turning………..sexy?
- Ah, one of my Russian countrywomen!
- Emma, girl, you don’t know what a samovar is? Get thee to a Russian restaurant for some borscht and pelmeni, stat!
- Obsessed with this Russian Jewish queen interrogating Robby about his single status.
- And MacGuyvering her own burn with honey?
- That’s my сестра!
- Wow, this Tree of Life reference is making me unexpectedly emotional.
- Oh shit, Kylie, the potential abuse victim’s dad, is (finally) here.
- Hate this dad, even if he’s not an abuser.
- Oh my God, this kid is so cute.
- Hey, I know what “idiopathic” means!
- Thanks to Scrubs!
- Why is this patient’s wife allowed to be in the room while they work on him?
- Wow, this pill grab bag goes crazy.
- Ugh, I love Mel.
- Watching a bead be sucked out of this child’s nose is weirdly satisfying.
- On another note: how do you stop a child from shoving beads up their nose?
- I mean, I can handle it in a babysitting capacity, but if you’re a parent, there are 24 hours in a day when your child could be huffing beads. I don’t like those odds.
- Aw, daddy convention!
- Obsessed with Al-Hashimi using a negative tox screen to shut down this racist creep security guard.
- Okay, this scene with Perlah where the Tree of Life survivor thanks her for the work the Muslim community of Pittsburgh did to help after the shootings is really nice.
- Girl (Robby), stop threatening to go on sabbatical and just go on sabbatical!
- “You’re middle-aged man. Don’t be stupid.” Yana is legitimately my QUEEN.
- “50-ish-year-old man on a motorcycle. Very sad.” Get him again!
- Oh God, Code Black at Westbridge.
- Things are about to get craaaaaaaaazy!
