ER
"Doug and Carol: Dreams Can Come True"
Scene 3: Carol's House
Carol and Doug reach the door of her house and she unlocks the door and they walk in.
Carol: Have a seat, Doug. Would you like a drink?
Doug: Sure. Thanks.
Carol walks to the kitchen and gets drinks for each of them. Doug sits nervously, fidgiting in his
seat. Carol returns and sits down next to him on the couch.
Carol: So, what's on your mind?
Doug: Well...I really don't know where to begin. I've been going crazy the last
couple of months...maybe even years. (looking at her) I miss us, Carol.
Everytime I take a breath, it seems shorter without you. I dream about you,
about us, every night. I still love you, Carol; always have, always will.
Carol: (interrupting) Doug....
Doug: No, Carol, please....please let me finish. You're the only one I want to
spend my life with. I've changed, I swear I have! I haven't been with a woman in
months. I love you, Carol.
Carol: (slowly) Doug..I..I..don't know what to say. I had no idea how strong
your feelings are. And you have to know something.....
Doug: (takes a deep breath, sighs, and looks down) oh boy....
Carol: (pushes his chin up and looks into his eyes) You have to know that I
didn't marry Tag because of you. I still loved you. I do love you. (tears begin to
develop in her eyes) I've always loved you and I always will. (Tear falls down
her cheek) You're a hard habit to break, Doug Ross. (smiling)
Doug: (smiling) You're the same thing to me.
Carol: So, are you feeling better?
Doug: (grins) More than you'll ever know. I love you, Carol, with all my heart
and soul.
Carol: Oh, Doug (moving close) I love you, too.
Doug: (reaches up and places his hands on her cheeks, stroking them)
You're so beautiful.
Carol now leans forward and their lips touch in a gentle, passionate kiss. Carol wraps her arms
around Doug as they continue to kiss. Doug lays down on the couch and Carol lays down with him,
with her head on his chest. They begin to fall asleep.
Doug: Goodnight, Carol. I love you!
Carol: Night, Doug. I love you, too.
They kiss a few times and then fall asleep.
Scene Four: In the ER
Carol had an earlier shift the next day, so she told Doug to go ahead and sleep and she'd see him
later. After a long good-bye kiss, she arrived to work.
Time Lapse- Carol is sitting at the desk working on a chart when Doug comes up behind her.
Doug: Good morning, beautiful! (smiling as he hands her a single,
long-stemmed red rose)
Carol: (blushing and grinning) Hi Doug! (smelling the rose) mmm...it's beautiful.
Thank you!
Doug: Last night was wonderful. It was so great to sleep holding you and
waking up with you. I haven't slept that well in months.
Carol: mmmm...me either. (smiling)
Carol stands up and puts her arms around his neck, and they share a kiss, unaware of their
audience. Mark, Susan, Jerry, Haleh, and Carter are all standing their watching.
Mark: Uh, guys? (interrupting Doug and Carol's kiss) Is their anything you
would like to share with us?
Carol: (smiling as she places her arm around Doug, who also has a huge smile)
Doug and I are back together.
Susan: (smiling) Well, it's about time!!
Everyone laughs, and Doug leans to Carol and kisses her and then wraps her in his arms and hugs
her. Mark and Susan look at each other from across the room and smile, each with a look of
longing in their eyes.
Mark: (thinking to himself silently) Someday, Susan. Someday.......
Final Scene: Three Weeks Later
Doug and Carol walk into the ER together, holding hands and laughing.
Doug: (giving Carol a kiss) See you later, Sweetheart. I love you!
Carol: Bye, I love you! (smiles and walks to the desk)
Doug walks away and runs into Mark.
Doug: Hey, Mark.
Mark: Hi, Doug. You look like you're about to burst with happiness.
Doug: Oh, Mark. You can't even begin to imagine how happy I am now.
There's nowhere in the world I'd rather be then here with Carol. I'm head over
heels in love, and not once have I felt scared at all. (walking with Mark back to
the desk)
Doug walks up behind Carol and places his arms around her waist from behind,
holds her close and kisses the top of her head.
Doug: Yep. I definitely believe it now. Dreams can come true, and standing here
with you, Carol, knowing you love me, too, makes me the luckiest man alive.
Carol: (blushing) Oh, man do I love you.
They kiss and the show ends.
The End.
