Dr. Thackery lectures Lucy (Eve Hewson) in The Knick
Clip from S01E02 of the new Cinemax (HBO) series The Knick.
Dr. John W. Thackery (Clive Owen): Lucy, there's a life we live within the walls of this hospital, and one we live outside of it, and these two lives need not intersect. Do you understand?
Lucy Elkins (Eve Hewson): I think so.
You saw me as no one else here has.
I did.
But I have a reputation here. In the medical community. With my colleagues. And any perceived weakness could damage their confidence in me as a leader and as a surgeon. And that in turn could endanger the lives of my patient.
I understand.
What you saw must remain between us.
