Dr. Neil Melendez : Dr. Murphy, you're late.
Dr. Shaun Murphy : No, the bus was late. The schedule was clear. They post it online. But the 4 bus was late, which meant...
Dr. Neil Melendez : You're late.
Dr. Claire Browne : Five minutes. We've all been...
Dr. Neil Melendez : On your first day, no less. It is your responsibility to be here. If you are not, you have failed in that responsibility, which makes it your fault.
Dr. Shaun Murphy : Okay, how can it be my fault? I did nothing wrong. The bus...
Dr. Neil Melendez : [sarcastic] Yeah. This is gonna work out great. The board clearly made the right choice in hiring you.
Dr. Shaun Murphy : Thank you.

Dr. Marcus Andrews : I need a consult.
Dr. Neil Melendez : What? You have a question about this? This patient is perfectly healthy. There's not even any artifact in these images.
Dr. Marcus Andrews : Yeah, which in turn raises an interesting medical question: why the hell did this patient get an MRI?
Dr. Neil Melendez : I don't know anything about this.
Dr. Marcus Andrews : Yeah. Someone on your team ordered it. It's your responsibility, which makes it your fault.
Dr. Neil Melendez : What... how did you...?
Dr. Marcus Andrews : It's my department. It's my job to know everything.
Dr. Neil Melendez : Well, then, since I work for you, doesn't that make all of this actually your fault?
Dr. Marcus Andrews : Oh, I'm sorry, I stopped listening after "I work for you".

Dr. Aaron Glassman : I heard Shaun made the call.
Dr. Neil Melendez : Mm. He's an excellet diagnostician. You should get him a job in radiology.
Dr. Aaron Glassman : He doesn't want to be a radiologist. He wants to be a surgeon. That's what we hired him to be. That's what I worked damn hard to hire him to be. Not a glorified orderly.

Dr. Neil Melendez : You have any idea how many patients he scared the crap out of today? How many wasted tests he ordered?
Dr. Aaron Glassman : So teach him.
Dr. Neil Melendez : I'm doing that. I'm teaching you both that he doesn't belong.

Dr. Aaron Glassman : You're gonna make me pull rank, I will pull rank. This is my hospital.
Dr. Neil Melendez : But it's my team. You can't tell me how to run my team.

Jessica Preston : You got a minute?
Dr. Neil Melendez : I have a patient lying in the O.R. waiting for lab results, and I'm sitting here trying to figure out what the hell I'm gonna do next, and I don't like any of my options, so... yeah, unfortunately, it seems I do.
