Summary
Carter’s not sure exactly when he first learned about the patented Peter Benton Dating Algorithm, but it must have been early on, because he internalised it like it was any other scrap of information he’d gleaned and hoarded like a crazy person, like his GPA (3.8), his birthday (September 9th) or his blood type (B positive).

“I’m not going to hurt you, John. You’re not…you’re not at home. You’re in the hospital. There was an accident with a patient.” Mark tried to explain but John didn’t seem to register any of it.
He was gasping now, barely taking in any oxygen. Wide eyes remained terrified and unseeing.
Mark felt utterly helpless.

Summary
“Doctor Benton,” Carter whispers, terror rising. “You want me – you want me to perform a surgical procedure on myself? I can’t do that. That… that’s crazy.”
“Carter, you can and you will. I’m going to talk you through it. And then we’re going to get you out of there, and to the hospital, and then you’re going to be fine. But right now, we do not have a lot of time. So I need you to listen to me very carefully and do everything I say.”
Or: John Carter is trapped under a collapsed building and seriously injured. Peter Benton talks him through surgery... on himself.

Summary
Peter Benton's anger over Carter's decision to quit surgery had been stewing for months.
Of course, of course today would be the day that that festering anger exploded out of him. Made him say everything he could think of to hurt Carter. Played on his insecurities, his need for Peter’s approval. Took all that rage and forged it into a knife aimed directly at Carter’s heart.
And now this.
Or: in the aftermath of a shooting in the ER, Peter Benton is finally forced to deal with his emotions - and his fractured relationship with a certain former student.
