Marcia Gay Harden: Dr. Leanne Rorish

Quotes 

• Dr. Leanne Rorish : What you got, Jesse?

  Jesse Sallander : [note found on hospital floor]  Tina wrote this. I think she's saying she was kidnapped.

  Dr. Neal Hudson : Where's Dennis?

  Christa Lorenson : Oh, my god. This says Tina disappeared two years ago. She's still listed as missing. Dennis isn't her father. Leanne is with the police. They're posting officers at the exits.

  Dr. Neal Hudson : Damn it. Where is he? Send deputies to the utility corridor. He's headed for the west exit. Where are you going, Dennis?

  Dennis : I needed some air. Tina okay?

  Dr. Neal Hudson : You're a monster!

  Dennis : What?

  Dr. Neal Hudson : Tina's not your daughter!

  Dennis : Of course she is.

  Dr. Neal Hudson : You're either lying or you're delusional! Either way, it's over! We know you took her!

  Dennis : You don't know anything. We're a family. She is mine. She needed me, and I gave her a reason to live. She loves me! What about the baby she gave me? Doesn't that prove anything?

  Dr. Neal Hudson : [becoming increasingly angry]  You know, I've never hurt another human being before...

  Dennis : She was lost! And I saved her.

  Cop : We got him! Sir. Hands behind your back.

  Dennis : She loves me! Do it! She belongs to me!

• Dr. Leanne Rorish : He's your son. He's welcome here. But I can't treat him any differently than I would anyone else.

  Dr. Rollie Guthrie : That's fine. He doesn't get extra points for being my son. But I'd prefer that he doesn't lose points for it, either.

  Dr. Leanne Rorish : Fair Enough.

• Dr. Leanne Rorish : You got lucky, Dr. Savetti. I wonder how long that's gonna last?

• Mario Savetti : [on caring for a repeat visitor who is an alcoholic]  Doesn't it bother you? After all you did, he's not even gonna make his daughter's wedding?

  Dr. Leanne Rorish : His daughter died 10 years ago on her wedding day. This is what is known as a grief ritual. Trauma One was the last place he saw her alive. He's stuck in that moment, he tries to escape it, but... he can't.
