Clip from Terms of Endearment. One of the most powerful scenes in movie history, in my opinion. In this scene, Aurora (played by Shirley MacLaine) walks up the the nurses' station and insists to several nurses that are sitting doing other things while the time for her daughter Emma's pain shot (played by Debra Winger) has already passed. It shows the desperation only a mother can feel while watching helplessly her child in pain.
