Actually, I’m hoping they kill him off soon, so I can stop getting that damn Suzanne Vega song stuck in my head everytime he says, “My name is Luka.”
Besides that, he’s a smarmy bastard. Not as smarmy as Prince Smarming, but still pretty damn smarmy.
Sure, Luka is pretty, but I’m just tired of his character. Maybe if they could make him a little less depressing…?
I was always more of an Anthony Edwards fan myself.
I too love Romano, but I wish they would make him a little less cartoonish. Maybe last night’s bit of vulnerability will show up more often.
I don’t remember what happens to Romano, sorry.
The thing is, wouldn’t he have felt his arm burning? I mean, no, not the arm itself, but come on! He would have:
-Smelled the shirt and/or his flesh burning
-felt the heat on his chest or his face
-asked Opal for help
-and used the water he was just starting to heat to put it out!
sigh
Abby is getting on my nerves. Oh, my brother’s bipolar! My mom’s bipolar! Oh poor me!
I LOVE Luka. Yeah, I did see the episode where he recited Hamlet. He lost his virginity on his wedding night! swoon
I finally had to quit watching because of that! 
I don’t think Romano is cartoonish.
Arrogant?
Oh my yes.
Does he have a huge ego?
Yes.
He reminds me of the scene from Malice when Alec Baldwin’s character of Jed gives the soliloqy at the malpractice hearing and he closes it out by saying, "I am God.
I missed the first half and only saw bits and pieces of the second half due to Storm Warnings interupting. All the more confusing with their screwy timeline and split screen.
Thank you everyone for the recap and details

Idiot warning: I didn’t even get that it was two different shifts being show concurrently until I asked somebody to explain it to me.
I thought it was a “how the shifts would have gone differently for Pratt or Carter / parallel universe” thing going on.
Now I’m pissed because I’d like to watch it again knowing the skinny on the time-shift thing. And I got cash-money says I forget all about it when the rerun pops up this summer.
I taped the episode and watched it last night. I found it to be one of the most enjoyable episodes I’ve seen in a long time.
Way back when, ER was all about the medicine, not about the personal drama in the doctors’ and nurses’ lives. Lately, it’s all been about “who’s having a hard time at home this week”. But on Thursday, it was almost entirely patients, patients, patients. H’ray!
Dang, guess I need to put specifics in a spoiler box…
I caught on to the time-shift thing pretty quickly, and I liked the parallel day-night storylines about the same patients, like the demerol-seeking guy who gave different names and the 13-year-old gang member. Incidentally, that stabbing he gave to the other kid was incredibly brutal, and I gotta give 'em credit for showing it.
I don’t have the original episode available for ready viewing, but did any of y’all notice that the beginning was very similar to the beginning of the first episode, but with Dr. Carter instead of Dr. Green? A little first episode-200th episode parallel, I guess…
I did notice that.That was WIERD!

Gods, that’s terrifying. That’s like Bonnie and Clyde with knives. Romano is the ultimate megalomaniacal prick, and Elizabeth is the world’s foremost emotionally unstable shrew. The two of them together would at least save the rest of humanity from anyone else being with either of them, but the idea of their union makes me think of nitro in a paint mixer: No good can come of it.
