All during the first season Dr. King is always very harsh on her for some reason.

**Season 2**

Right at the start of the second season she again has some flirtations with Hans. Several times she goes back and gossips about their encounters with Greyson, her now best friend. She confides in Greyson a lot about the chief babying her and actually yells at him about it in front of everyone which angers him greatly. Dorka also gets very close to a patient who ends up passing away. Instead of comforting her about it, King only gives her hardship about it. In the final scene of the season, she is walking out to her car on the phone trying to call Greyson. When he doesnt pick up she hangs up and is putting her stuff into her car. When she turns around the camera is on her and she makes a gasp and drops her phone. The season ends there.
