    Make sure to drink enough before watching.

    Because you're going to need it for all the tears.

    What an episode.

    I used to watch ER reruns if saw it on while skipping channels, but never followed the seasons. Now I finally had the chance. The character Mark Greene is one of the best if not the best in the entire show and this episode is how a true ending should be. Heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. Be sure to get some tissues before watching because you will definitely need them.

    ER - The Most Emotional Episode

    Wow,I don't know how any fan of ER could not break down in tears to this episode, (male or female). I have never seen a movie or TV show that was this much of an emotional roller-coaster. And being a father of a little girl, I think it hit home just that much more.

    Mark Greene takes his daughter to Hawaii to have a last shot at teaching her some of life's important lessons, knowing that any day now would be his last. To top it off the song playing in the final few minutes of the show, (Somewhere over the rainbow/What a wonderful world), really just nails the exact feel to the episode. I don't want to ruin the experience of this episode, so I won't elaborate on it, just watch it for yourself.

    This is one of the best ER episodes, (Love, Labour, Lost), probably being the best. If you have never even watched ER, this one would probably show you just how important the show has been over the 15 years.

    I had never seen ER

    Started watching reruns. I found myself waiting to turn it on every morning. Then I started binge-watching. I couldn't leave my chair try. I really grew to love Mark Greene, and I really had to take the hit on this episode. I cried for an hour. The music in the background didn't help. A great hour of TV

    Crying

    I watched this back in 2002 as a kid and now again almost 20 years later. The most emotional tv episode ever made.

    very impressive

    I Haven't watched this series. I don't really like hospital series actually. I just happened to sort of stumble on to it, just saw some fragments of it. This is in actual fact the one episode I have seen. Twice to be precise, I saw part of it a couple of years ago and the series has been been repeated for a while in the Netherlands. For some strange reason I checked the TV-guide and saw the title. That was the reason I taped it,and yes, it was the episode I had partly seen before. I was mightily impressed. Rarely did I see one episode of a TV-series make this much of an impression on me. Kind of helps me prepare for ... well, I don't know... maybe the end of my own days. Maybe some time from now, maybe soon, I don't know. Very good indeed.

    • Quotes

      Dr. Mark Greene: [to Rachel] I was trying to figure out what I should have already told you, but I never have. Something important, something every father should impart to his daughter. I finally got it: generosity. Be generous, with your time, with your love, with your life.

      Rachel: Okay.

      Dr. Mark Greene: I'm sorry, Rachel. I'm so tired.

      Rachel: It's okay.

      Dr. Mark Greene: Don't cry for me.

      Rachel: I won't.

      Dr. Mark Greene: Be generous... always.

      Rachel: I will. Daddy. I remember the lullaby. I remember you used to sing it to me every night. I remember.
