1.03 Winning a Battle, Losing the War

We live out our lives on the surgical unit.

Seven Days a week, fourteen hours a day, we're together more than we are apart.

After a while, the ways of residency becomes the ways of life.

Number one : Always keep score.

Number two: do whatever you can to outsmart the other guy.

Number three: Don't make friends with the enemy.

Oh, yeah, Number four: Everything, everything is a competition.

Whoever said winning wasn't everything...

Never held a scalpel.
