i read a post somewhere that said something along the lines of “dr santos wants people to believe she doesn’t care but in reality she cares too much” and you can really see that when she invites whitaker over at her apartment. she lives alone in an apartment with a spare room. maybe it was a temporary situation, maybe she simply can afford it. it doesn’t really matter. she lives alone and it could stay that way if she just turned a blind eye. she could leave whitaker, pretend she didn’t see. people could argue that basically everyone in the pitt is kind enough to extend a landing hand and i believe that to be 100% true, but what matters is that dr santos did it. the one who everyone thought was heartless just for being arrogant. trinity santos saw this guy and said “fuck it. you’re coming with me. i’m not gonna stop making fun of you but if you don’t come with me now i’ll use my krav maga skills to bring you home myself.”
trinity santos the woman who had a close friend kill herself because of an abusive older man. trinity santos the woman who could’ve been that friend because mental illness has a hungry grip that spares no one. dr robby could be that person and dr santos doesn’t know. every single character could be that person and we wouldn’t even know because we, much just like dr santos, were allowed no more than a peek in these people’s lives. we only have a vague idea what they look like on the outside, what demons they’re fighting against. any day now, that person could be whitaker. could be any patient dr santos can’t save.
dr santos’ arrogance isn’t a lie, but it’s not a complete truth either; there are so many layers etched under her façade and it think whitaker is a great way to show that. they can be so beneficial to each other in terms of character exploration and development.
while watching karma I had the impression that kim beom jun is just sangwoo according to his haters, who don't understand his character and think that he's pure evil and psychopathic murderer (I love you anyway kim)
And another thing:
Regardless of your interpretation of Langdon's relationship with his wife, that man LOVES being a father. He's got a little friendship bracelet that says dad, whenever their is a child tragedy he is already on the phone to hear his kids and make sure they are ok. He bought them a puppy just because his four year old wanted one, desire to make them happy completely overriding any kind of common sense. Just he clearly loves being Dad, he is like daydreaming about mowing the lawn in white New Balance sneakers, he is mentally grilling outside during their birthday parties or whatever.
And there is so much to be explored with regards to how little time he actually gets with them. Residents get almost no time off for anything so you know he misses them and you know he feels guilty and you know the puppy is BECAUSE he feels guilty.
And we talk a lot (as we should) about the resentment that grows in the primary parent at having to be On and expend all their time and energy on caretaking, but it is also possible for the parent who is not there and is spending less time to be resentful of the other parent for GETTING so much time with the kids. IDK I just think it is an interesting thing to think about in terms of his relationship with his wife because he clearly loves those children.

ready for the trinity santos and dennis whitaker bestfriendship of all time on levels that no one else can comprehend. i need them to walk into the next season arguing about how trinity broke the coffee machine in the one singular way where it's unfixable. need dennis to talk about how someone tried to break into the apartment and trinity broke their arm in five places. they watch shitty medical dramas together and get genuinely angry at inaccuracies and use said inaccuracies to quiz each other. trinity took no less than 100 pictures on dennis's residency match day. dennis tells trinity that he's survived multiple tornadoes and her only reaction was calling him a loser because he's never been stormchasing. this isn't even all the thoughts i've had and i finished the finale 15 minutes ago
hot take. Despite having the biggest saddest eyes and pathetic vibes, Whitaker is not shaking like a chihuahua nervous about life, he's actually pretty fucking steady and rolls with things as they happen to him. things just happen to him A Lot
