The Pitt’s Final Moments Featured A Very Revealing Line Of Dialogue Fans Are Overlooking

Since The Pitt premiered, it has become one of the most talked-about TV shows in a long time. Since fans are so fascinated by moments like Dr. Robby’s breakdown and Dr. McKay’s arrest, it didn’t take long for plans for the second season to be announced. As a result, millions of fans have been focusing on which characters will return for Season 2 since they want to see more touching moments from their favorites.

However, with fans focusing on The Pitt featuring positive role models and incredibly tense moments, there is something that most of them haven’t noticed. The final moments of The Pitt’s Season 1 finale featured an extremely revealing line of dialogue that most fans didn’t notice.

The Pitt’s Dr. Cassie McKay Had A Very Revealing Line Of Dialogue At The End Of The First Season

When Episode 15 of The Pitt”s first season was coming to an end, fans were likely to be blown away. After all, seeing such a stellar close to the show’s first season was an incredible achievement for The Pitt’s viewers to behold.

On top of that, the finale for The Pitt’s first season left fans with a lot of questions about what is to come. Most notably, fans were left wondering what would happen to Dr. Frank Langdon and Dana Evans after the end of the events of the show’s first season.

Given everything that fans had to take in during the finale of The Pitt‘s first season, it makes sense that many fans didn’t think much of a line of dialogue from the finale episode. While many fans may not have picked up on it, Dr. Cassie McKay’s final words during The Pitt’s finale were very powerful if you think about them.

During the finale of The Pitt’s first season, the last moment that viewers saw of Dr. Cassie McKay showed her walking out of the hospital. As she exits the hospital after a nightmare day, Dr. McKay can be heard talking to her son, Harrison Ashcroft.

Just before the episode cuts away from Dr. McKay, the last words that fans hear her say are a telling question that she asks her son.

What did I tell you about scary movies?

There are two reasons why that seemingly throwaway line of dialogue from Dr. McKay is meaningful. Interestingly enough, one of those reasons is very serious, and the other is completely hilarious.

First off, this article will look at the serious reason why Dr. McKay’s comment to her son is so meaningful. In order to look at that, fans have to think about the day that Dr. McKay had before saying those words to her son.

Why The Pitt Is The Best Medical Show Ever Created

After only one season, The Pitt has quickly become the best medical show ever created.

Throughout the day that fans saw Dr. McKay have during The Pitt‘s first season, she went through unimaginable trauma. While emergency room doctors spend every day seeing patients who are the victims of horrific violence, a mass shooting incident would hit even them very hard.

Not only that, Dr. McKay took a stand in an attempt to protect young women when she reported a young man who wrote something disturbing. While Dr. McKay did the right thing, the sad truth is that things can blow up in your face even when you do the right thing. In this case, Dr. McKay had her boss call her out for risking the young man’s well-being. While viewers can conclude Dr. McKay did the right thing, having your mentor and boss mad at you is a quick way to wind up questioning yourself.

During the events of The Pitt’s first season, Dr. McKay saw and experienced things that would put any horror movie to shame.

The Pitt’s Best Characters, According to Collider
The Pitt Character	Rank

Victoria Javadi	#9
Dr. Trinity Santos	#8
Dr. Cassie McKay	#7
Dr. Samira Mohan	#6
Dr. Frank Langdon	#5
Dana Evans	#4
Dr. Mel King	#3
Dr. Heather Collins	#2
Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch	#1

After getting through that horrific day, Dr. McKay could easily have been numb. Instead, Dr. McKay instantly prioritized protecting her son from experiencing even the fake danger of a horror movie at a time when she believed he was too young for it.

Chicago Med Has Gone Severely Downhill For This Likely Irreversible Reason

Chicago Med fans have sadly watched the show go downhill because of a trend on the show that likely is irreversible.

The fact that Dr. McKay was being so protective of her son at that moment is even more telling when viewers consider something else. Since viewers could hear the other side of the conversation, they heard Dr. McKay’s son tell her what movie he was watching with his grandfather.

Me and Grandpa just started watching Planet of the Apes.

While some people may find Planet of the Apes to be intense, the movie isn’t often considered to be a “scary” or horror movie. As a result, it seems very telling that Dr. McKay would want to protect her son from even a movie like that, considering what she’d gone through that day.

Then, there is the funny reason why that line of dialogue is truly remarkable, who delivers it and the characters involved in that scene. Before she joined the cast of The Pitt, Fiona Dourif spent years starring in horror movies and shows.

Most notably, Fiona became one of the stars of the Chucky/Child’s Play franchise since she starred in two of the franchise’s movies and its show. Additionally, Fiona starred in several other scary movies and TV shows. That dialogue also is funny because Dr. McKay’s son was watching the so-called “scary” movie with his grandfather, who was portrayed by Brad Dourif.

Before playing the father of Dr. Cassie McKay on The Pitt, Brad Dourif had a legendary career as a successful actor for decades. While Brad starred in a slew of movies, including One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and The Lord of the Rings franchise, he is best known for playing Charles Lee Ray and Chucky in the Child’s Play/Chucky series. In real life, Brad is Fiona’s father.

Since Fiona Dourif and Brad Dourif are both celebrated horror movie actors, seeing them be part of a scene that calls Planet of the Apes “scary” is funny.

The Pitt Featured An Earlier Line Of Dialogue That Later Became More Meaningful

As anyone who has seen The Pitt is likely to remark, the show’s first season was a masterpiece. One of the reasons why the first season was so extraordinarily great was because of how skilled the show’s writers clearly are. Another line of dialogue that was later revealed to be a lot more meaningful is a perfect example of how great the show’s writing was.

These Chicago Med Characters From The Past Need To Return Like Dr. Sarah Reese

Chicago Med could become great again if these characters from the past rejoined the show’s cast.

During the first episode of The Pitt, fans were introduced to Shawn Hatosy’s portrayal of Dr. Jack Abbot. While the character wouldn’t be seen again until much later in the season, an important piece of information was dropped during that first episode: that Dr. Abbot is a veteran.

Later when Dr. Abbot returns to help in the hospital following the mass shooting, there is a moment when he is asked if he needs a hand to put in two chest tubes. In response, Dr. Abbot has a response that seemed unremarkable at that moment.

Hell no. I got two hands.

Later during the episode, Dr. Abbot is one of several doctors who are seen unwinding after their day by drinking a beer together. As he is shown getting comfortable around his friends, viewers learn that Dr. Abbot has a prosthetic leg below the knee.

After fans learn about Dr. Abbot having a prosthetic leg, his comment about having two hands takes on an all new meaning.
