Quotes 

• Daniel Charles : Sometimes being out of options is what it takes to instill the idea to get better.

• Ethan Choi : 3,000 calories?

  Daniel Charles : It's all she's willing to accept.

  Ethan Choi : Why are you negotiating? Dangerously low albumin, renal insufficiency. 5'6" and less than 70 pounds. Dr. Charles, I carried her in, she was nothing. She needs high-calorie, long-term nutrition.

  Daniel Charles : I agree.

  Ethan Choi : Then what are you doing?

  Daniel Charles : Anorexia is actually the most deadly mental illness that there is. Every instinct she has is telling her to resist this, and I don't want to push her any harder than she'll let us.

  Ethan Choi : Then let me push her.

  Daniel Charles : No. I made a deal, we have to honor it. Trust me, it's her best shot.

• Sarah Reese : [about a 65 pound woman]  Is she the worst case you've ever seen?

  Daniel Charles : A healthy BMI is between 18 and 25, her's is 11. If she's going to survive, we can't afford to make any mistakes.

  Sarah Reese : She's killing herself.

• Sarah Reese : I did my two-week suspension. I am in therapy. I am not supposed to be afraid anymore. I am a psychiatrist. Rule number one is to connect with your patients, and I could not even look her in the eye.

  Daniel Charles : Look, the good news is that you recognize the problem. Right? Sarah, nobody learns how to master their fears in two weeks, trust me. It just doesn't happen. Not even somebody as determined as you are.

  Sarah Reese : Okay. You know, when, um... when Allison died today, I saw myself, beause she could not change. But I have to. I have to. I just don't know how. You have to help me. Dr. Charles.

  Daniel Charles : Of course. Of course. Of course I will.
