THE MOHANTOS WEEK PROMPT SURVEY IS OUT!

It becomes a running game for some of the staff (Princess, Perlah, and Walsh), to see what adjective they can mention to make Garcia bring up Santos. She does it a lot, unprompted, but it takes them a while to get it right.

They fail at first.

"That new IT tech is so pretty."

"Did you see the biceps on that paramedic? She could carry me any day."

"Oh, didn't she have the most beautiful eyes?"

Nothing. Garcia just nods, or makes a flirty comment, or ignores them entirely.

It's not until Princess comments on Dr Toomarian's skill in a procedure that they realise where they've been going wrong. All it takes is a throwaway, "Steady hands there, Doc."

And suddenly Garcia says, "Two promising interns in two years? Maybe this place won't fall apart just yet."

And Princess' mouth hangs open and she runs to tell Perlah, and after that it's history. There have never been more compliments flying around the ED, at least when a certain surgeon is in earshot.

Perlah praises, "Quick thinking."

Garcia says, "Almost as quick as your competition."

Walsh offers, "Bold decision."

Garcia says, "I know someone bolder."

Even Matteo catches her by accident with, "I can't believe you caught that! Impressive. Most doctors would have sent him home."

And, like clockwork, Garcia says, "I know at least one other doctor who would have caught it. Two, if you count me."

And somewhere in a super secret text thread, there is an ever growing list, titled simply, "Evidence", that so far consists of:

Ambitious

Steady

Quick

Bold

Impressive

Dedicated

Talented

Fearless

Skilled

Brave
