Should there be a mention of the hidden (Medic?) weapon from the double drop picture? http://img818.imageshack.us/img818/2968/doubledropweek.png

:It's definitely a Saxton comic, pause it and look closely as the shot pans across the characters. I don't know if it's Jarate Master on the back or not.

I'm CERTAIN it's a comic we haven't seen, even if you disagree on it being Saxton. Check the comics page. My edits were fine, worded to not be 100% declarations of truth, and time-consuming.

At 2:27, he's seen going towards the truck, however, the camera goes to the Demoman in the wheelchair and as he falls out of his wheelchair from the rockets, the Heavy is no longer seen anywhere near the truck he was heading towards and as the camera shows the Demoman getting up, he's nowhere on the map at all, he then reappears taking cover behind the truck as the Scout passes by the camera [[User:Masterlegodude|Masterlegodude]] 02:35, 26 June 2011 (PDT)

== Waiting Room Line ==
 
 
 
The ticket dispenser at the end of the video shows 11, so there is an unseen 10th waiter. But to me it would seem that there are two more unseen waiters. In the video, you can see that the Soldier holds a ticket with 3 on it and I think the Spy holds a ticket with 9 on it (the ticket is rather blurry, so I can't see it exactly). Scout is 1. For the moment, let's presume Sniper is 2, Pyro is 4, Engineer is 5 and Demoman is 6. Then who are numbers 7 and 8? I doubt the Heavy and Medic, since Heavy already has had the operation and I find it very doubtful that the Medic takes a waiting line ticket when he is the one doing the operations. Even if he pulled a ticket for himself, then there is still one number unaccounted for. I might be reading too much into this, but to me, the math is just off. -- <span style="font-family:TF2 Build;font-size:90%;">[[File:Killicon train.png|40px|link=User:Hefaistus]] [[User:Hefaistus|<font color="#FF9933">Hefaistus</font>]]</span> - [[User talk:Hefaistus|<span style="color:black;font-size:82%;">talk</span>]] 09:46, 27 June 2011 (PDT)

== Timeline ==
 
 
 
Meet the Medic is one of the few things we can see are definitively in the "past" as it shows the invention of the Ubercharge.  It seems to also occur after Meet the Sandvich as the Sandvich is half eaten.  Meet the Director shows the Sniper, Heavy, Scout, Soldier being filmed in that order around the same time by the Director (Meet the Medic and Spy don't have to be during this time as they aren't interviews.) The Meet the Medic footage already existed at that point, as well.  So, right now, we're looking at: Sandvich, Medic, Sniper, Heavy, Scout, Soldier.  Engineer and Demo can't really be placed at that time.  Just some thoughts on when the videos might occur. [[User:Webrunner|Webrunner]] 12:51, 28 June 2011 (PDT)
 
:The refrigerator from Meet the Sanvich =/= the refrigerator from Meet the Medic. Yes, both contain half a sandvich and a bottle of beer. So what? Just because your neighbour's refrigerator has the same contents as yours does not mean that it is suddenly your refrigerator. It is pure speculation, nothing more. Not convinced? In Meet the Sandvich, the floor is wood. In Meet the Medic, it's ER flooring. Meet the Sandvich has 3 bottles next to the sandvich. Meet the Medic only one. It is a reference at best, but I doubt it is more then just model reusing.
 
:Log story short, we can't say anything about Meet the Sandvich. I wished I could comment on the rest, but I wouldn't be able to do that without placing the Engineer Update and the WAR! Update before Meet the Medic, chronologically speaking. But Meet the Director does indeed seem to be placing Meet the Sniper, Heavy, Scout and Soldier in that order. -- <span style="font-family:TF2 Build;font-size:90%;">[[File:Killicon train.png|40px|link=User:Hefaistus]] [[User:Hefaistus|<font color="#FF9933">Hefaistus</font>]]</span> - [[User talk:Hefaistus|<span style="color:black;font-size:82%;">talk</span>]] 13:23, 28 June 2011 (PDT)
 
Another timeline thing that occurred to me: The video shows the first ever Ubercharge, so it definitely takes place before any of the updates, because the standard (no longer prototype) medigun has been in the game since release. However, one of the BLU soldiers can be seen holding the Equalizer, which he did not get until the WAR!. So we have a minor contradiction. Should this be noted in trivia? [[User:Zoon-li|Zoon-li]] 15:48, 28 June 2011 (PDT)
 
:And that is what I meant with my previous comment. The Frontier Justice also appears, meaning that both the WAR! Update and the Engineer Update would take place before Meet the Medic. Not trivia worthy, if you ask me, as it can be explained by Valve wanting to make the video a bit prettier. -- <span style="font-family:TF2 Build;font-size:90%;">[[File:Killicon train.png|40px|link=User:Hefaistus]] [[User:Hefaistus|<font color="#FF9933">Hefaistus</font>]]</span> - [[User talk:Hefaistus|<span style="color:black;font-size:82%;">talk</span>]] 15:54, 28 June 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Perhaps a reference to an old trailer ==
 
 
 
Was looking around aimlessly today and I came across [[Trailer 2]]. I watched it, curiously, and noticed that the Heavy mows down many people, or rather many soldiers, just after 0:50. From what I've watched, this is the only other video I have seen with the Heavy killing mass amounts of soldiers. Perhaps I'm looking too far into this (in fact I probably am), but maybe Meet the Medic, specifically just after 3:10 in the video, is a reference to this old trailer? [[User:Atonement|Atonement]] 11:47, 12 July 2011 (PDT)
 
:It is--[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] {{mod}} 11:58, 12 July 2011 (PDT)
 
::Should it be added somewhere into the page then? [[User:Atonement|Atonement]] 12:00, 12 July 2011 (PDT)
 
:::I don't think it's a reference, they wanted the Heavy to mow down a bunch of enemies, and rather than having a tangle of different classes causing confusion they used several of the same one - the Soldier, being the main generic class.

::::That's a possibility, however, if you watch [[Meet the Heavy]], he kills all types of classes. But I could see why they would put several different classes when they are focusing on the heavy, but only one when the heavy isn't the focus. But then again, in Trailer 2, he's the focus and only kills one type of enemy. [[User:Atonement|Atonement]] 16:45, 12 July 2011 (PDT)

In the cabinets in the background, there are various items in there, one of them is the Medic's Solemn Vow (seen right next to his arm), and there's also a purse hanging on the wall to the right of his head, should either of these be noted? Also, other than the various bottles in there, what are those other objects? [[User:Masterlegodude|Masterlegodude]] 21:02, 14 July 2011 (PDT)
 
 
 
:{{c|Maybe}} Well, while the other objects in/near the cabinet are not noteworthy, these two seem to be.  I'm not sure about this one; perhaps if we get another yes we can add it.

== The Scout's Heart ==
 
At the very end, as the Scout bursts out of the emergency room saying "You would not believe...how much thus hurts!", listen carefully with a good pair of headphones; The sound of a heart beating very rapidly can be heard. You see, the heart of a small animal beats very rapidly even when the animal is in a resting state. So could this mean that the Scout got the Loch Ness Hamster heart, or the smaller unlabeled one? Oh, and as soon as Archimedes the Dove coos inside his chest, the sound of his heart stops. I thought it was neat enough to mention. [[User:Cronie|Cronie]] 02:05, 26 July 2011 (PDT)
 
:What heart the Scout has is speculation. That his heart stops when Archimedes coos is observational.

== Heart size to Health of each class ==
 
 
 
I think that the size of each class's heart vary to the health of each class. The Heavy's heart is the largest and his health is the largest (300). Should this be noted or not --[[User:Mardamien24|Mardamien24]] 19:46, 29 July 2011 (PDT)

== Spy's Head ==
 
 
 
There is a scene in the movie "American Psycho" (the one with Christian Bale) in which the protagonist Pat Bateman opens the fridge of his home and it is shown the head of a woman inside. Just like in the clip Meet the Medic. I think the head of the Spy is an obvious reference to the movie and this information should be included in the Notes.

:I think that's a possibility considering the Medic's and Bateman's shared homicidal/psychopathic tendencies, however I am wary to say it's anything more than speculation. I'm fairly sure the idea of a head in a fridge is not one exclusive to American Psycho, so it's hard to say if this is intended to be a reference to American Psycho. -[[User:Mr. Magoolachub|Mr. Magoolachub]] 22:30, 12 February 2012 (PST)

== Soldiers Wearing Hats: A First. ==
 
 
 
I've noticed that this is the first Meet the Team video in which a character is wearing a non default hat. The BLU soldiers are wearing hats such as  The Proof of Purchase, Frontline Field Recorder, Soldier's Stash, Stainless Pot, Lumbricus Lid, Jumper's Jeepcap, and The Armored Authority.
 
 
 
I keep trying to add this to the trivia section, but after about 2 minutes it disappears from the page, just like ALL of my contributions. I'm new, so the last sentence may sound stupid. Is there a validation period, or is someone angry at me? What's happening?
 
 
 
Here's what I try to add:
 
* So far, Meet the Medic is the only "Meet the Team" video that shows any character wearing a non-default hat. Some BLU Soldiers near the end of the video can be seen wearing The [[Proof of Purchase]], [[Frontline Field Recorder]], [[Soldier's Stash]], [[Stainless Pot]], [[Lumbricus Lid]], [[Jumper's Jeepcap]], and The [[Armored Authority]].

This might be bringing up an old issue, but on that same line, the soldiers have different weapons. While that itself isn't of note, is it of note that one of those weapons appears to be the same as those used in [[Trailer 1]]? It can be seen at 3:36 on the left, tucked underneath the arm of one of the Soldiers. I don't really know weapons very well, though, so it could be that it is just an unfired rocket.

== A reference to the 241543903 meme? ==
 
 
 
When you search "241543903" on Google Images, you can see people sticking their heads in freezers. The BLU Spy's head in the refrigerator/freezer reminded me of that, so should we add this reference to the Trivia section?
 
 
 
Along with that, there's a noise that reminded me of the critical hit sound at 0:54. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Foxontherails|Foxontherails]]''' ([[User talk:Foxontherails|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Foxontherails|contribs]]) 13:39, 13 July 2012</small>
 
:That's quite amusing, but there's really no evidence to suggest that it's a reference to the meme at all. And Valve re-uses sounds all the time, a critical hit sound in the video definitely isn't worthy trivia. {{User:Cooper Kid/Signature}} 06:22, 13 July 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Engieneer holding frontier justice? ==
 
 
 
I couldn't find it in the notes or trivia, but I saw after the heavy is übercharged (around 3:25 or so) the engineer behind cover next to the sniper is holding the Frontier Justice rather than his default shotgun. <small>— ''The preceding unsigned comment was added by'' '''[[User:Shadowhand|Shadowhand]]''' ([[User talk:Shadowhand|talk]]) • ([[Special:Contributions/Shadowhand|contribs]]) 23:27, 9 September 2012</small>

== Woman in TF2? ==
 
 
 
At 0:55 in the video of Meet The Medic, after the heavy's heart explodes, you can see a woman figure in the window in the top left. Ideas anyone?
 
[[User:Platinum Time|Platinum Time]] 14:25, 1 October 2012 (PDT)
 
:That woman is generally accepted to be [[Miss Pauling]]. It is also noted in the article page itself. [[File:User_Upgrade_Signature.png|link=User:Upgrade]] 14:45, 1 October 2012 (PDT)
 
 
 
== Release of medibeam ==
 
 
 
After the Medic and Heavy climbs the corpse pile, the Medic actually releases his medigun and the beam can barely be seen being stopped.
 
Should this be Trivia or something?
 
 
 
== Very nice there / Bitte sehr ==
 
 
 
The transcript of the video confused me. I'm pretty sure that the Medic doesn't say "Very nice there" when he gives the heart to the Heavy and finishes his treatment on the Scout, but "Bitte sehr". "Bitte sehr" is German and pretty much means "you're welcome", mostly in the context of giving somebody something and would fit perfectly there. "Very nice there", on the other hand... I'm not even sure if that's even proper English (but then, I'm not a native English speaker). And (more or less) gratuitous phrases from non-English speaking characters aren't unheard of.

== Scout saying "balls" when first getting hurt ==
 
 
 
I hear him clearly and quickly say "balls" when the first rockets hit him.
 
I changed a word in the transcirpt because there's no way it could be just "augh"
 
I mean, he does play baseball. :P
 
Anyways, I dont wanna have an edit war so if you have a good reason against this go ahead giveit to me.

: Subtitles are more less official.  The sound clip is also official. And after hearing it numerous times, And getting others to hear it. They do not hear it. Secondly the little reference of him saying balls because he plays baseball isn't noteworthy. More less not even noteworthy. The transcript is also official iirc.

Yeah i realized that part about the trivia and removed it a while ago. Whatever, just like last time, do whatever you want. [[User:ErnieTheGreatest|ErnieTheGreatest]] ([[User talk:ErnieTheGreatest|talk]]) 01:57, 7 August 2013 (PDT)

In-game items should have priority. Move this page to [[Meet the Medic (video)]] , and move [[Meet the Medic (taunt)]] to this page · [[User:Ashe|Ashe]] ([[User talk:Ashe|talk]]) 04:14, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

:::: I partially disagree. As much as I agree that game items have priority, effecting this move would create an inconsistency with other video pages (like [[Meet the Engineer]]).<br>I believe the hatnote "<code><nowiki>This article is about the video. For the taunt item, see Meet the Medic (taunt).</nowiki></code>" is sufficient. [[User:Tiagoquix|Tiagoquix]] ([[User talk:Tiagoquix|talk]]) 19:21, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
 
::::: {{info}} I agree with Tiagoquix, for consistency sake, it is better to keep it the same format as the other Meet the Class videos, moreover, the hatnote should suffice to clarify the ambiguity between the item and the video.
