Jackie confronts Dr. Cooper after losing a patient during surgery.
It's not what Nurse Jackie says to "Coop" that resonates as much as how Edie Falco plays her and thus it's the unique-to-Edie style of delivery that really makes this scene pop. "What you need to know is that I know you. I've seen hundreds of jerk-offs like you blow through these doors..."
Jackie sends Zoey home after a long day at the hospital only to realize she's been overworking herself after nearly killing a patient.
We see completely different sides to Nurse Jackie here than in the "Coop" scene. Quite awesome I think that in the space of less than 30 minutes the character of Nurse Jackie is already so rich with potential that the viewer is hooked. She's almost like heroin. In a good way. Student nurse Zoey is also given a chance to show a side of herself that we would not have expected to be there based on her behaviour throughout episode one, but there it is. Another character to expect the unexpected from.
