Gabi really should’ve just taken Sir out but that would mean ending the show way ahead of schedule. Also I’m the anon who sent the Margaret ask and I’ll be honest I completely forgot that it’s only been a couple of days since the reveal. Once I rewatched I realized that Margaret’s reaction really does make sense because of everything you laid out and it’s not like Gabby‘s gonna really face any legal consequences so some attitude and icing out is pretty much all the punishment she’ll get. I think I just miss the team dynamic and think it’s way more interesting when they get along because everything feels a bit fractured right now
That’s why I’m kind of irritated by the show sometimes. Because so many things are CONTRIVED for the sake of the plot.
What do you mean Trent, who is a very “by the rules” cop, walked right by Hugh on a park bench in broad daylight and didn’t notice him? Bro didn’t even have his face covered. He just had a hood on LOL
And Hugh was FOLLOWING HIM. What do you MEAN you were being followed by this bulky 50 something year old man and you didn’t notice?!?!
Why is said bulky 50 year old man able to disappear in and out of spaces so quietly like he’s a petite acrobat?
He’s very smart, but he’s not a genius lol nor is he a magician.
Anyway lol I also miss the team dynamic but I’m also glad Gabi is being held to the fire. Because I was so sure they were just gonna shrug it all away once Lacey was taken. My only worry now is that they’re going to go about Lacey’s post-second abduction life very carelessly. That she won’t be given substantial screen time nor will they actually take the time to show her heal.
#najas asks#found nbc#I’m still wondering how Hugh was able to steal Ethan’s credit card because that either means Dhan has NO security protection at his house#which would be insanely OOC#OR Hugh was able to get close enough to Ethan to nick his wallet from him#which also doesn’t make sense bc that would mean Ethan just never noticed his card was missing#and didn’t question random charges

Med Rewatch Series (#4)
S3: Nothing to fear. See what happens.
-GUYS IT’S AVA
-yes.
-Ava: “It’s leaking.” Connor: “that’s impossible.” BITCH FUKCING BET
-Ava’s like bruh you ain’t shit
-ava undermining connor to latham. hmm...... not that good for my argument, but... it just means, greater redemption arc
-okay why does Connor gotta look at her so mean tho?? bro chill
-literally why is everyone so horny
-haha sarah yessss. the clipped ‘dr. reese’ ‘dr. charles.’
-i have no idea why but sarah and noah are just walking through the ed and I keep expecting ava to fucking pop out of nowhere and save her from the convo. oh my god.
-okay sarah’s storyline in this one is pretty good. the lady, the patient, she’s great.
-sarah is adorable right now. so professional but also chill
-’disingenious’ okay damn go off
-okay but back up to my point before, i’ve always thought of ava of being like this lowkey protector of women (ik it’s a little out of left field) so everytime I see a guy trying to talk to flirt with a girl i am always expecting ava to just swoop in and save the day. ESPECIALLY with sarah, and its gotten to the point while watching her and noah I ACTUALLY expected her to pop up. dumb monkey brain never learns --- I actually wrote this so here it is
-god sarah is the fucking best
-uh oh, the fact that there’s an ava/connor scene right after this is SENDING ME (not in the good way bc literally stop it - especially)
-this is the scene where ava brings him coffee and his hair is a mess. It shows empathy (if you take away the romantic ava subtext). Like if you look at it on the surface, it’s a great scene, she’s nice. But then she goes and starts talking about robin and how she is also kind of his patient, which could be read as undermining (listen ava stans I promise i’m not looking for negative ava points it just happens)
-BUT THE BEST THING IS IT DOESN’T GO THAT FAR. I was fully expecting him to get accusatory of her criticizing robin but he doesn’t so we’re good. This scene is completely fine without the romantic subtext, which is fantastic
-this scene is also fun if you think about those au’s where sarah or ava has really severe mental illnesses that effect her work bc then the exact things she says to connor ‘you work our schedule then you go home to your girlfriend who is basically your patient too’ and- Now that i think about it in those stories connor would just be super super supportive aw well
- i do really like that scene - one of the best points of connor/ava brotp
-Ava: “At least it hasn’t affected your sunny disposition” ma’am I love you
-Ava: “keep up the good work” she said keep making mistakes and I keep getting paid let’s go this is the team
-is this the one where the baby was fake? that was a really good episode
-aw wait there’s actually a baby nevermind
-ava’s best storylines are one’s where she’s independent of connor. we’ve established that. it’s not that I hate connor, I just get scared when they’re in the same room for a long time bc then they inevitably start talking relationships and undertones
-when we get to the actual relationship i’m gonna vomit
-why does Connor have to be right everytime? Come on, it’s annoying, and not just for me, right?
-everytime he’s right and ava is wrong, it makes ava seem impulsive. As we’ve established before, she’s not impulsive (EXCEPT WHEN CONNOR IS BOWLING OVER HER DECISIONS AND CONGRATULATED FOR IT). she’s a good doctor, she wouldn’t be at med with connor if she was not
-yeah it’s that classic thing where surgeons are always partial to surgery
-ava tends to lead to the more serious possible outcome. actually, that’s really all it is, she tends to believe the most drastic possibilities. she makes the tough decisions when no one else can/will. she’s fucking amazing, and that’s why we love her - but everytime connor bowls over her decisions, she seems impulsive, she seems incompetent, almost dramatic. med. no.
-especially on this case - remember that this is CONNOR’S mistake! ava is cleaning up after it! connor should not be congratulated when, from the way I look at it, connor’s just getting lucky.
-gosh sarah’s fantastic
- nobody:
-sarah: *rolls sleeves*
-oh yeah she steals sarah’s prescription pad. i really do hate all the people sarah treats bc they like totally take advantage of her and make her distrust them so much that she feels super unsafe. ava will protect her (in my brain ava is a instinctual protector of women)
-okay but literally in this scene sarah is like floored and she makes a deal of apologizing to charles but like,,, sarah Was right. babey no...
-ik that most medical dramas are all about doctors disagreeing over things but,, med would not be able to propel story without it. literally everything story beat is-
character A: I think this.
Char B: No! we’re going to do this.
*does the thing* *thing goes wrong*
B: See? I told you so.
-also most of the time something Else happens and A happens to be right the entire time. (and the amount of times character b happens to be female and char A is a man is astounding. literally ava in her first ep, and ethan and april now. holy shit I hate this show so much.)
-i boiled down med to its bare essentials!
-sarah: *prescription pad goes missing* *sees woman who wanted a note* *dramatic music plays*
-sarah... please no. she’s about to do a bad thing....
-sarah’s storyline makes me so fucking sad.
-the way sarah fixes her shirt/jacket when she tries to be in control
-SARAH GOING TO BE ALONE SO SHE CRIES ON THE ROOF - MY FUCKING HEART????? stop it med fucking stop it (i got so upset in my first draft i wrote stopping fuck it) - but that’s some reesker inspo right there
-med writers really try to make everything a ‘thing’
nobody: ...
april: it’s because i’m not a doctor, isn’t it.
(alt:
ethan: ...
doris: it’s bc you two are fucking, right )
-but maggie is taking none of their shit
-maggie: if you two don’t stop misbehaving i’m gonna move your desks apart
-the way all the people with common sense talk to the doctors like children is fucking hilarious (sharon: ‘I expect better from you, Dr. Manning’
-if nat pulls the ‘i know this, i’m a mother’ card i am suing.
-I’m suing.
-she pulled the ‘I’m a mother’ card AND the ‘my husband died’ card oh wow! a two for!
-okay honestly. Im gonna be real with u. If i came up with nat’s story about her fear of heights, then I wrote will helping her over her fear of heights, I would be proud of that. That being said, it feels suuuuper out of place right here. it’d be in place in like a thirty minute comedy (like the emotional development and pay off is on brand for like brooklyn nine nine) but it just feels suuuper weird.
-like having an hour per ep means it feels like they should have had enough time to better develop the story
-latham: ‘Did you go behind my back?’ YES LATHAM YES HE DID. FLAME HIS ASS
-i want to see what happens with connor’s benching storyline
-now i get anxious whenever they’re in surgery (you can use this for inspo)
-okay what. just bc connor found something wrong he gets to SCRUB IN??? BRO HE SHOULD NOT GET A SURGERY FOR NOTICING A MANUFACTURING MISTAKE??? this is so FUCKING STUPID
- i hate it here
-the way sarah folds her hands behind her back when she goes into charles’ office - adorable.
-okay what the fuck. charles asks sarah into his office and asks for her diagnosis of him, which makes it seem like he is actually trying to get better, but then when sarah answers his question (incorrectly btw, charles is not fine) he’s such a complete jerk. dude everybody needs to stop hating on sarah come on wtf. that’s literally so mean.
-god she is literally too pure she should not be a psychiatrist.
-that being said. she is beautiful.
-I FUCKING FORGOT THAT THE PATIENT SLASHED SARAH’S TIRES
-she really can’t catch a break. babey
-sarah noah brotp is probably peak
-its very rare for med to have two characters of opposite genders interact and not get together so this is a special thing
This episode wasn’t the worst. I wrote that fun little thing about Ava shutting down Noah’s advances on Sarah. The Ava/Connor cafeteria scene is fantastic for their interactions with each other, and like always, we just sit through the other storylines.
thanks for sticking through. not a lot to say, this was more me just talking about the general tropes used on med, but i did write a whole 500 words for casual reesker so its a good day
