one thing that bugged me about this episode…  
Susan and Chuck are at a coffee shop or something when Chuck originally decked the creepy guy. The next thing we see, they’re in the ER with him - and he’s screaming about lawsuits. What the hell? As soon as the creep hit the floor, Susan and Chuck should have skedattled outta there, without any worries. He didn’t know their names or anything. But he ends up threatening them, the ER, and the city with a lawsuit - all because they felt the ‘need’ to personnaly escort the perv to their own ER?

Whoops! You’re right. It’s just that they come across as such useless newbies I have a hard time seeing them as full fledged doctors.

Which begs the question: how DID Morris get through residency, anyway?

Wasn’t there the implication that Coop sort of carried him through it, hence Morris’s discomfort at his departure? Or am I making all this up?
