More sides from episode 5.20.

Chris Meloy - 30s, arrives by ambulance after being hit by the car driven by Dan Gates. Dr. Smith attends to Dan while Dr. Walters attends to Chris. Paramedic informs Dr. Walters that Chris has afractured shoulder, possible broken ribs and internal bleeding. Dan says he didn't hit Chris, Chris jumped in front of the car. Chris accuses Dan of driving like a madman and calls for a blood alcohol test. Dan calls Chris a liar and Chris responds calling Dan a drunk.

In the ER: Dr. Smith is stitching up Chris and keeps glancing at his shoulder. Dr. Smith remarks that Chris said the car came from a northerly direction and Chris confirms asking why is that important. Dr. Smith tells Chris the police will there in a couple of hours and that Chris has to stick around till then. Chris gets uncomfortable, he doesn't want to wait for the police and just wants to go home to his family. Dr. Smith explains that whenever someone gets hit by a car they need to file a report so the police will need a statement from both Chris and Dan. Dr. Smith looks at Chris' shoulder again and knows something isn't right.


Dan Gates - 40s. First scene: is the same as in the previous side with Dan and Chris arriving by ambulance.

Dr. Smith talks to Dan explaining his injuries while Dan is trying to wrap his head around what happened. Dan has two broken ribs that lacerated several organs which caused internal bleeding. Dan says that he was only going to the bank because he had a few minutes before having to get back to the office. Dr. Smith asks him if there's any family he'd like for them to call before the surgery. Dan says his wife Mary but he hadn't called her yet because she gets worried and she had to pick up their sons from school in a couple of hours. Dan then gets very angry and starts yelling that Chris is a SOB and he jumped in front of the car. Dr. Smith tries to calm him down saying the police are on their way and that they should probably call his wife. Dan refuses saying she'll panic and he doesn't want to put her through that, he'll call her after the surgery. Dr. Smith agrees and says they'll call her after the surgery.

Mrs. Gates - Dr. Smith and Dr. Walters find Mrs. Gates waiting anxiously in the patient waiting area. Dr. Smith informs her that her husband Dan has a long recovery ahead of him, he suffered a minor brain contusion, broken ribs, internal bleeding but he's going to be fine. Mrs. Gates is relieved and extremely grateful thanking both doctors and saying they're wonderful. Dr. Smith asks her if she would like to see her husband and she accepts.

Mr. Smithson - is Jessica's father (the little girl who is the patient). Dr. Grant steps outside in the hall to talk to an exhausted looking Mr. Smithson. Mr. Smithson starts explaining to Dr. Grant that he spoke to a friend of his who is doing the fundraising for this sort of thing and his friend mentioned a place in Mexico where they do experimental treatments and have been very successful. In a few weeks they should have raised enough money. Dr. Grant says that she knows it's hard, they've talked about this a lot but she's sorry. Mr. Smithson refuses saying all they need is a little more time while he shuffles through print outs. He says he should've brought Jessica sooner over there for the treatment but he didn't know. He doesn't mean to insult Dr. Grant because he knows she's done everything she can but Jessica is a fighter and he needs a few more days to get her there. Dr. Grant looks him in the eye and starts saying that Jessica isn't going to be able to... Mr. Smithson blows up and starts yelling to Dr. Grant to not tell him what is best. He'll find a way to get his daughter to Mexico tonight and shame on Dr. Grant for giving up on Jessica. Mr. Smithson leaves angry and on a mission.

In Jessica's room: Dr. Grant is checking as usual to see if Jessica is bundled up enough. Mr. Smithson comes in defeated, he called eight organizations and there's a wait list for emergency funds, he doesn't know what else to do. Dr. Grant tells him it's time to stop. Mr. Smithson thinks maybe if they go to the airport they'll be let on the flight since Jessica is a sick child. Mr. Smithson pleads with Dr. Grant to not make him stop. Dr. Grant looks at him with compassion saying she wouldn't want to stop either. Jessica opens her eyes and asks her father if they're going to Mexico. Mr. Smithson looks at her and knows she's dying. He walks to the side of the bed, takes Jessica in his arms and lies down stroking Jessica's hair. He tells her they are going to Mexico where the sky is blue, the sand is white and so on. It'll be just the two of them, no more doctors, no more medicine, no more hospitals.

Jessica - Very sick 6 year old. In the first scene, Dr. Grant and Dr. Hawkins have stabilized her. Dr. Grant pulls out a tiny ceramic doll dressed like a ballerina from her pocket and asks Jessica for a good name for the doll. They agree on Elizabeth being a good name and Dr. Grant places the doll on Jessica's table where we see several other dolls.

In the second scene, Dr. Grant walks into Jessica's room and she's looking very scared and sick. Jessica really wants her dad and Dr. Grant says he's talking to the doctors and will be here soon. Jessica looks so small, weak and scared that Dr. Grant instinctively picks her up.

More sides from episode 5.20:

Kevin - he's a psych resident. In the ER, Dr. Smith is charting and Kevin approaches. Kevin was called for a consult on a guy who got hit by a car (Chris Meloy - going by the other sides) and Dr. Smith directs him to curtain five. The patient is gone and Dr. Smith remarks "Oh, crap..."

ND Patient - In the ND Patient's room, Dr. Swanson is stitching the patient and Mr.Vernon lingers nearby. Dr. Swanson says he's with a patient right now and he (Mr.Vernon whom Dr. Swanson calls 'Scott') shouldn't be there. The ND Patient says he doesn't mind Mr. Vernon being there and Mr. Vernon looks at Dr. Swanson as if to say 'see, the patient is on my side'. Dr. Sawnson sighs.

Episode 5.20 - Casting sides - March 04, 2009
Callie's dad is going to be visiting in episode 5.20.

I was right about Mr.Vernon being someone we know but I was wrong about it being Izzie. There's a new side for Mr. Hall and the scene is clearly with Callie (named Jessica in the side) and Mr.Torres (they didn't even bother to change his name, lol).

Mr. Hall - In Jessica's (Callie) ND Patient Room: Callie is setting Mr. Hall's bones, he's sedated but becomes alert when Callie cracks his bones. Mr. Torres hovers silently close by making it hard for Callie to focus. Callie tells her dad that she's with a patient at the moment and he shouldn't be there. Mr. Hall says he doesn't mind and Mr. Torres looks at Callie as if to say the patient is on his side. Callie tells her dad that she wasn't looking for a relationship, not with a he or a she but it feels good, safe, easy and comfortable with her (Arizona, I presume). Callie finishes setting Mr. Hall's bones and turns to her dad who's unreadable. Callie's says she's happy and asks him when has he heard her willingly admit to that. Mr. Torres is calm and determined as he says that when Callie lived at home with her parents she was happy. Callie responds that she was twelve so it didn't take much. Mr. Torres wants Callie to fly home with him today and he'll take care of everything for her (set her up in her old bedroom, buy her a new car). He says he'll talk to the Chief and explain the circumstances and Callie can transfer her residency to St. Mary's Miami. Callie outright refuses saying she's not moving back home.

Kevin - he's a psych resident. In the ER, Dr. Smith is charting and Kevin approaches. Kevin was called for a consult on a guy who got hit by a car (Chris Meloy - going by the other sides) and Dr. Smith directs him to curtain five. The patient is gone and Dr. Smith remarks "Oh, crap..."
