the pitt is crazy from a storytelling perspective because usually you sort of focus on one main plot point and it culminates over an arc so you have the time to have a dramatic chekhov's gun moment but this is one day in the ER so shit just keeps happening and gets resolved and happens again in a disjointed rhythm so instead you get chekhov's gun and chekhov's knife and chekhov's pregnancy test and chekhov's rats and chekhov's fourth set of scrubs and you have no idea when any of them are gonna fire.
whitaker eating ube baked goods w santos. that's it.
can people start obsessing over queerplatontic ships the same way they obsess over romantic ships
thinking about sang-woo's face whenever ali says something that reminds him how out of his depth the guy is.
i mean, sang-woo has this general air of constant guilt going for him in the show, but you can see the exasperation in there whenever this happens.
bonus: sang-woo's immediate reaction to finding out ali's got a one-year-old baby boy waiting for him at home.
it's not a squid game character unless all their relationships are doomed.
which character will mr. kim play this time?
(potential) ways people find out santos and whitaker are close/living together:
whitaker calling santos "trin" in front of their coworkers, santos not batting an eye and answering to it, and both of them pausing suddenly when they realize what happened.
santos putting an arm around whitaker's shoulders and ruffling his hair at random intervals throughout the day.
one of them instinctively stepping in front of the other when a fight breaks out in the hospital.
accidentally falling asleep while leaning on each other in the break room after a long shift.
santos handing whitaker a shopping list while passing him in the hallway.
one getting injured/passing out and immediately asking for the other when they wake up, still half-asleep.
^ alternate scenario: getting put on meds and saying something disgustingly sentimental. if it's whitaker, santos would get a bit emotional in the moment but will definitely make fun of him when he's sober. if it's santos, she'll be stuck wondering why whitaker looks so pleased with himself until someone tells her what happened.
discussing what they're going to eat for dinner while everyone is clocking out.
what the fuck did they inject into Karma (2025)'s theme to make it that good?
