rat in my workplace. i really am in da pitt

idk i just. i gotta say there is something so powerful about having two alpha male coded characters discussing their emotions on a rooftop while grappling with overt suicidality and having the most alpha of the two not only providing emotional support and words of affirmation but actively endorsing therapy. admitting that he goes and it helps. do you understand how insane that is. they really wrote jack abbot to be in the middle of a venn diagram of suicidal demographics and said we're not going to leave him there, we're going to make him be the one who is advocating for the mental health care of healthcare workers. Do you get this. he's a white male veteran between like 18-50 who undoubtedly has access to a firearm. he's disabled, he works in emergency medicine as an attending and we have no idea what kind of support system he has outside of work. like. that is a man i would be actively worried about in my workplace. that is a man who knows how to kill himself and make it stick. and he's talking about his therapist out in the open. the amount of stigma and internalized masculine ideals and military masculinity he has worked through. do you. do you understand. do you understand what an incredible character jack abbot is. i'm tearing up. robby is terrified someone will find out he has ptsd and panic attacks and jack is telling him it's okay. implying he has them too. it's okay because you came out and went right back in it. you were who we needed you to be, and it wasn't fair and it's okay to not be okay. it's okay to need help. jack. jack abbot said those things.

jack abbot you have my entire heart

Some people are critical of Dr. Langdon for cutting off Mel midsentence with a brusque "I gotta hit the head," but have we considered how hard it is to get a bathroom break in that ER? We had a whole, multi-episode arc highlighting the struggles of Dr. Robby to grab two minutes at the urinal. Did we learn nothing from this? Should we not consider extending the same level of empathy toward Dr. Langdon? In this essay I will

There should be a new joke on The Pitt where the hospital's morgue attendant fucks with the new doctors (individually, they corner the New People one by one throughout the shift as a rite of passage) by telling them a patient was murdered and the crime will remain unsolved without their help.

Whitaker and Mel fall for it with ZERO second thoughts and immediately panic over having to catch a murderer with this off-putting pathologist. Trinity ALMOST doesn't fall for it, going "you'd tell the cops, not me" until the pathologist says, very gravely, "I have reason to believe I can't trust the police" and then she locks the fuck in. Javadi waffles hard for a few seconds, before saying, "I don't believe you!" and then scuttles off to ask Dr. McKay or Dr. Robby if the pathologist likes to prank med students.

Mohan did not fall for it when she started, but says nothing to warn new people because she knows it makes the pathologist and their assistant both laugh. Langdon had the exact experience Trinity had. Beat for beat. Didn't fall for it until he thought there was A Conspiracy. Garcia refuses to admit that she fell for it but she absolutely did. McKay did not fall for it, but thought it was the funniest thing on Earth. Collins only fell for it because McKay was standing there going "this is for real, Collins, this looks like poison" and she started to genuinely Freak Out for a few seconds.

Dana and Kiara have never been subjected to this prank, as it would have been a waste of time to do so. "Shut up Dr. Brandywine" and "I'm sure the police would love to hear about any real murders you uncover, Doctor" would be their respective answers. Robby and Abbot were each subjected to it in the first month following said pathologist's hiring and both fell for it at least a little. Like Abbot probably hesitated and went, "are you serious? If you're serious we need to call the police, unless you think we shouldn't fucking do that for some reason?" and Robby was ready to believe it until there was any suggestion of not calling the police, and then concluded he was being screwed with.

Gloria has been subjected to this prank so many times that, the one time a patient was ACTUALLY murdered, she didn't believe it until she was testifying at the trial.

okay but. santos inadvertently picking abby up on the rebound. no one ever told her langdon's wife's name because why would they and he's been gone for months when she hits it off with this woman at a bar. and they're vibing and they go back to the woman's place to hook up and suddenly santos stumbles across a picture of FRANK LANGDON AND HIS CHILDREN

and abby is like oh sorry i know it looks bad but we're separated i promise but santos is just like I Have To Leave Right Now Immediately

He's fucked up, sure, but the boy's always been a little fucked up. His father did that to him.

I do not need some sweet, heart-on-sleeve reconciliation between Santos and Langdon. I need a genuine asshole to be hired, and for Santos and Langdon to unite against them in mutual hatred.

santos and the girlies on break comparing stories of the most filthy out of pocket DMs they've gotten from total strangers on IG and mel reveals she's never even been catcalled. and is it weird to feel secretly jealous of the girls who get that kind of attention. and they have a big fun debate about it meanwhile langdon is in the corner of the break room on his phone eating a yogurt and making 50 new burner accounts
