Summary
Sometimes, Dennis thinks, life would be easier if he didn't feel guilt so easily.
Pretending that he doesn't have the flu to cover for everybody else who has the flu isn't one of his brightest moments. But Dr. Robby had looked so openly defeated when he had to send Santos and McKay home early in the shift, and when he jokingly begged for Dennis not to catch the flu...
Well, the overwhelming guilty feelings came into play at just the right time. Never mind the fact that he's been running a small fever since early that morning from the same flu that is terrorizing the department. Ibuprofen is a godsend, and guilt, Dennis knows, is a powerful thing.

Summary
"Why did I just get a call from the site admin notifying me of an elevator entrapment involving two of my doctors?" Gloria asked. "Who else is in there with you?" | It's 7:01PM the first Monday after PittFest, and everything is going great—at least for Jack. Until it isn't.

Summary
“Come on, kid,” someone says, rubbing his sternum with bruising fingers. Dennis desperately tries to swat the hands away, the bone already sensitive from the weight of the patient from just moments ago. “Open your eyes, Whitaker, come on. Look at me. Open your eyes.”
He twitches, his limbs flexing in odd and tight angles as he tries to expel the memory of the pain. He tries to speak, not to answer the question but to ask for help, help, anyone, anyone at all, his mom or one his brothers or the youth pastor who gives him bandages when no one is looking, just, God, please, please—
The best Dennis can manage is a deep gurgle from his throat.
*
When he gets seriously injured after an altercation with a patient, Dennis is forced to reveal parts of himself he would rather keep hidden.

Summary
Trinity and Dennis have been roommates for three months, and she wouldn't say that they're friends.
Sure, they spend all of their time together. And yes, they watch The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives religiously every week and chat about it at work. And yeah, fine, she'll meal prep them both lunch while he fixes her sink, but they're not friends. And that's how it'll stay.
Until the day a patient comes into the ER and Dennis refuses to treat him. Not out of revulsion. Not because the guy’s an ass.
Because Dennis is terrified.
And fear has a funny way of cracking things open.
