[quote=Anonymous]I had a thought about a potential suicide plot line.

I think the show is really pushing us to think that Robby might attempt suicide. Riding his bike without a helmet. Talking like he's not coming back. Giving Whitaker his house. Being unable to look at Abbott when he talks about "dark thoughts". Zooming in on his face, near tears, when Al-Hashidi asked the mom of the little boy if she had thoughts about hurting herself.

I think it's a feint. I think someone else is going to make an attempt. Someone who no one is particularly worried about and in fact might be generally annoyed by and wishing they would just... go away. Someone who perhaps is annoying specifically because they are in a lot of psychic pain and have a host of maladaptive behaviors to try and deal with negative and intrusive thoughts. Someone who was a survivor of childhood abuse, and has a history of self harm (cutting). Someone who feels isolated (like a pariah) and feels trapped in a difficult professional situation with no good out. Someone who doesn't seem to have any close friends and also might be experiencing feelings of abandonment because their sort-of girlfriend just dumped them and their roommate is about to move out. Someone who is under a lot of pressure at work and whose new boss told them they might not get through their R2 year if they can't dig out of the hole they're in on charting. And someone whose only true ally in the ED, Robby, is about to leave.

I think it might be Santos.[/quote]
