Guildford March 19, 2020 Share March 19, 2020 So I guess it's lucky this season got cut short because that means Ben lives to see another year....poor guy is so gonna die. Can't have happy couples of this show for long. However, they are the only likeable couple on the show. So it's a pity his cards are marked. April and Choi.....just stop forcing it FFS. There is nothing there, and doubling your medication is just painfully dumb. I'm not sure who writes this show, but I had to laugh out loud when the nurse burst through the door and told Choi 'come quick, April is sick' seriously? Natalie must have had another TBI....no way that Natalie we know and loathe would ever defend the Mother of that child. This is the 'Doctor' who kidnapped a child, locked herself in a room and forcibly administered medication...I call bullshit. Loved the wedding....except for the painful longing glances between those merry band of idiots & now they've sucked Marcel into that vortex.

spunky March 19, 2020 Share March 19, 2020 I loved Crockett shutting Natalie down. He dodged a bullet with that one. Ethan really tried to fight someone who wasn't even willing to fight back. Crockett didn't put a gun to April's head. The little twit kissed him out of nowhere. April and Ethan so deserve each other. Crockett can do better than both April and Natalie. Not to mention he looked hot in that suit. Natalie didn't want to call DCFS for once, color me surprised. Then the real Natalie came out at the reception. She ruined her shot of getting a good man. Now she can sit there and watch Will be happy with his new girlfriend. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107205-s05e17-the-ghosts-of-the-past/#findComment-6012078

WinJet0819 March 20, 2020 Share March 20, 2020 I do hope that the rumor isn't spread that Crockett tried to break up April and Ethan, when in fact it was April that kissed him, and he stopped her right then and there. Natalie, obviously listening to the rumor mill, said he he tried to hit on April. And all this because April couldn't act like the grown-up she is and come clean right away. Drama for the sake of drama. And in any real life hospital, Ethan would have been suspended, possibly arrested, since there were cops around. You're at the workplace, in the ICU, and you deck a guy for kissing your girl, when you don't have the clear story because you left when she was trying to explain what happened. Another reason I despise workplace romances in these shows. Too many times, the relationship drama is dragged into workplace. Maybe it's good the season won't properly finish.

cathmed March 20, 2020 Share March 20, 2020 As some of you may have read, DirectTV went dark for the last 15 minutes or the show. I missed the wedding and evidently, Nat's snarky looks at Crockett. I'll have to see if I can catch On Demand as it sounds like those were the most interesting moments in the show! I have to agree with others; Crockett was NOT at fault with the kiss; it was all April. I've said previously, I like Crockett's character but just unsure where the writers will take him - will he end up being unscrupulous or just a nice guy and great surgeon? Also, agree - don't couple him with Nat or April IN.ANY.WAY!!! I thought it was just incredulously stupid for April to tell Choi at that moment about the kiss (I have no sympathy or empathy for her). It wasn't dramatic; just asinine, imo. They should have never been together in the first place. To me, it's certainly been a detriment to Choi's character. I remember Dr. Charles briefly mentioned a couple seasons ago about his wife and child (could have been around the time Robin joined the show); seemed odd to try to develop that storyline now. Maggie & Ben - still the most bizarre relationship simply because they were chemo patients. Maggie deserved better and yeah, Ben, nice guy, is going to die. Halstead and (former) heroin addict doctor - oh Lord, looks like I'll have to suffer through this but somehow, I think he and Nat will eventually "return to each other's arms" - ugghh! 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107205-s05e17-the-ghosts-of-the-past/#findComment-6014005
statsgirl March 20, 2020 Share March 20, 2020 I spent yesterday with someone who has a borderline personality disorder. So. Much. Drama. About everything. Caught up with the episode and realized who April reminded me of. I did like the last scene where they were all bowling. If only there had been no longing glances between Crockett and April. This show has done some terribly bad relationships but that has the potential to be the worst. They are going to destroy him as they did Rhodes and Choi. How old is Charles' daughter? Old enough to vape, and still acts like she's 5. The idea that she would freak out because her father was such a bad parent (!) that he would be put in jail is something for a much younger child. When Oliver Platt Charles hurt his leg a couples of seasons ago, one of the episodes had a scene where his younger daughter wheeled him around and then she disappeared.. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107205-s05e17-the-ghosts-of-the-past/#findComment-6014673
SG11 March 20, 2020 Share March 20, 2020 Wasn’t a terrible episode except: -when April painfully admitted THE KISS and Choi reacted like they had sex for 6 weeks while he was gone, it felt so very 7th grade. -I actually liked the spin on the MBP diagnosis that’s so overused on TV (I actually called what was going to happen) but it was ruined by NataNutBag deciding that the MBP was wrong because she spent 5 minutes with the Mom and of course she knew better, scowled the whole time because she wasn’t right, then gleefully beamed when Dr Charles went with PTSD because she WAS right, as she ALWAYS is. I cannot stand NataLoonatic on that show.

Dr. Strauss that abuse is suspected, and she says "I don't think so" and "I just don't get that sense with her" and Charles winds up proving her right with the PTSD.

sweetandsour March 21, 2020 Share March 21, 2020 Welp, all this 100th episode really had to offer me was Dr. Abrams, to whom I say, "Please never change." The blunt way he talked to Natalie (not critical of her, but adjacent to her, so that's good enough for me) and when he shook Dr. Charles' hand after Dr. Charles bowled a strike - I will take those little nuggets gratefully. I'm so glad Dr. Abrams is not a regular character since they are written so poorly. I just can't with Halstead and Asher. Also, if Halstead had reported Asher without evidence and she denied it, I have to imagine that her hierarchy of bosses would then be paying very close attention to her. And while Asher was attempting to cover up her addiction at work (and seemingly getting away with it around medical professionals - thanks, writers), I think she'd get busted pretty quickly after she was reported. No way was she an addict who could really convince people she was sober during those long shifts, day after day. Or that she could pass random drug tests. (I'm not sure the hospital could require random drug tests based on an allegation, but I'd think so, given the nature of the work?) The only way Asher could dodge the scrutiny is to quit or go on leave. And it's so gross to me that Halstead is still getting personally involved with her. Like he thinks that's a totally appropriate thing for a just-detoxed person to get into. But he's such a compulsively good, ethical guy, right? ... No comment on the eruption of the pointless love triangle and Natalie being Natalie.

Can TPTB really not think of any other wedding-related plotline or obstacles other than "this thing needs to take place in five minutes"? Also, isn't April always acting the part of the medical expert, even contradicting the actual doctors? How stupid would she have to be, doubling up on her fertility treatment stuff?
