One of the trickier lies Carlisle has to work on in his profession (when he is actually in the operating room, of course) is the nurse who is normally assigned to the care of the doctors. Doctors are human, on the whole. They sweat; they tremble. Carlisle is excellent at it after so long but he is still remarkably controlled in comparison to the other professionals in the room.

And he always closes after surgery. A perfectionist to the core, he closes because he started the job - he should finish it.

But today there's a problem. Carlisle places the saline solution to one side before he drops it, blinking two, three times.

Everything's gone...fuzzy.
