- What do you say, Captain?

Shall we show these kids
a thing or two?

- I would be honored.

- One day I got tapped
on the shoulder

and gently reminded that
life is unbelievably fragile.

Coronavirus.
I thought I was dead.

You're pregnant.

And you think it happened
when the three of us...

So you don't know
which one of us...?

I wanted to tell you,
I am all in for you.

- Why don't we get out
of this cheap gin joint

and go get a room.

- I thought you'd never ask.

- Ooh, pair of aces.

Looks like Lady Luck has a
soft spot for a man with a limp.

- [ Chuckles ] Oh.

Oh, late, Maxy.
Convenient timing.

- Well, please allow me
to sweeten the pot.

What is the one thing
that we never gamble with

here on the Odyssey?
- Real money?

- No Health and safety.

The latest COVID boosters
have arrived.

Who's first?

Hmm?

Okay, I'll go first.

- I just got out of
the hospital.

I'm not supposed to be
taking anything.

- Right.
- Max, I don't think

I need another booster.

I-I've had COVID four times.

I'm basically a walking antibody
at this point.

- Yeah. Every time I get
a booster, I'm out for days.

I can't afford it.

- Well, some mutations have
fewer complications.

But [sighs] give it to me.
I'll take it.

I should be protected,
obviously, because...

...I'm a nurse.

- Yes. Thank you, Nurse.
- Mm-hmm.

- So let's just have a basic
biology lesson, shall we?

Viruses mutate
in every direction.

And in the event
that this strain turns out to be

something particularly nasty,

where do you think
it's gonna pop up first?

Yes, right here, because we live
on what amounts to basically

a floating petri dish.

Need I remind you about
the beginning of the pandemic?

Thousands of people
quarantined on a cruise ship,

some of whom actually died.

Hmm? Ring a bell?

Okay, well, if you two
wake up tomorrow morning

and suddenly decide
to be responsible citizens,

you know where to find me.

I am so incredibly disappointed
in all three of you.

You two are in my good books,

- Lord.
- Dad's mad. Fun's over.

Let's call it.
Big day tomorrow.

- What in the world is that?

- Last gasp of a dying era.

It's a sculptural tradition
here on the Odyssey.

- [ Laughing ] Oh, my God.
Cougars Week.

- Mm.
- Right.

Or as we now lovingly
refer to it as--

- Uh, Sophisticated Ladies Week.

It's ridiculous.
Cougar is a term of respect.

Cougars are elegant,
powerful creatures.

- You are very passionate
about this cruise.

- Mm-hmm.
- Guess that tracks with your--

- Mommy issues? You were about
to say mommy issues, Doc.

- I was about to say
modus operandi.

But, yes,
the subtext was mommy issues.

- Don't judge things
you don't understand, Doc.

Men in their 20s
and women in their 50s

are deeply sexually compatible.

There's something innately
natural about the whole thing.

Yin and the yang.

Ah, years past,
I would have pulled

two, three cougs a cruise,
but, well...

not this year.

Everything's changed.

It's not fatherly behavior.

- Fatherhood and paternity
are not the same thing, Justin.

And not everything in life
is a dance-off.

- Yeah.

Oh, speaking of dancing, the
cougs love a whirl and a twirl.

So get ready.
You're fresh meat, baby.

It's Odyssey policy, my policy,

it is the correct protocol.

- So you forcibly lock her up.
What if she sues?

- Way better than if the rest
of the passengers sue

because they got COVID because
of her and our irresponsibility

and an unnecessary degree
of pearl clutching.

to handle this situation

tactfully and graciously.

Max, I know your history.

I know you have
zero tolerance for anti-vaxxers

and COVID deniers.

- Sir, yes, I had the virus,
and, yes,

I watched the bodies pile up
in the freezer trucks,

and it's a miracle
that I'm not one of them,

which is why I'm not willing
to turn the other cheek

just because some
very charming woman wants to--

Tact and graciousness.

Diphenhydramine hasn't been

That can have adverse reactions,
and they can be delayed onset

two weeks to a month.

- And...

you can tell him.

- God, Max, that's so terrible.

I'm-- I'm so sorry.

- She was fiery, like you.
[ Both chuckle ]

And just always...

taking care of everybody.

She was just giving and giving

and not taking care of herself.

In this job, I'm supposed
to be in control at all times.

Hands on the wheel,
steady in a crisis.

And things like this happen--

getting COVID,
my mother dying--

and it's just,

the illusion of control
goes out the window.

And that terrifies me.

And usually when I'm terrified,
I run.

- Honey, y-you're just having
PTSD.

- I'm gonna be a father, Liv.

- Ah.

[ Exhales ]
I'm gonna be a father,

and it terrifies me.

But not because I'm gonna run.

Terrifies me
because I want to stay.

- Oh, my God.

I know, I know.

[ Gasps and moans ]

Ah. Ah! Something's wrong.

- What's going on?
- Oh!

I-I can't--
I can't catch my breath.

- Okay, I need to get you
to the infirmary right now.

- [ Groans and coughs ]

- Olivia, just try to breathe
normally.

You're doing great.
- [ Moans loudly ]

- Just try to breathe normally
if you can.

Multisystem
inflammatory syndrome.

She's got COVID antibodies
in her bloodwork.

- So her current infection was
actually a reinfection?

- Correct.
- BP is dropping. 93 over 54.

- Fluids are going.
Let's get her on corticosteroids

for a severe inflammation.

Hey.

- [ Coughing ]
- Okay.

- [ Moans loudly ]

[ Gasping in pain ]

- What are you hearing?

- There's no fluid
on her lungs yet.

Heart is tachy.

Can you get her in
for an ultrasound?

Also, check for myocarditis

and the inflammation levels
in her abdominal organs.

- I have so much to do.
Please, please.

- Liv. Liv.
- Don't let me go.

- You are way too peppery
to leave the mortal plane.

You're in good hands, I promise.

- [ Moans and gasps for breath ]

- Just keep breathing.

- [ Labored breathing ]

- Keep breathing. That's it.

- Well, her vitals are
stabilizing,

but the tests do show
that she has mild myocarditis.

She's still
in critical condition.

- Now we just need
to give her time.

IVIG and the steroids
are starting to work.

Let's get a repeat echo,
run a blood panel.

And we gotta push IV fluids
around the clock.

- Okay.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Max, you did everything
you could.

Now it's up to her.

- Come on, Olivia.

You're not gonna quit on me now,
are you?

- Bobby, I-I admit
I'm a little worried.

I mean,
having a baby at our age?

I mean,
so many things could go wrong.

- I've thought of that, too.

We've got-- you have time

to think about this and figure
out what you want to do.

If you want to do it,
I'm gonna be there with you.

We're gonna do this together.

Are you okay?

- Mm.

Oh! Oh.

- Do you think I miscarried?

Is there still a chance
it's okay?

Spotting can happen

more serious complications.

Everything looks good, healthy.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

But I want to get her
to a hospital as a precaution.

The spotting was likely
due to cervical irritation,

which is not uncommon
in early pregnancy.

you know where your life is,

clear picture of it.

And I've come to know
that we're all walking around

absolutely 100% clueless.

Congratulations, sir.

You know, being a father was...

my favorite part
in the whole world,

even better than
my first naval command.

But I wasn't there enough.

a drum kit.

Five-piece with a hi-hat.

Is this even happening?
Is it possible?

- Well, apparently
anything is possible.

We got a lot to talk about.

- Oh, yes.

- Did you know I had a secret
crush on you for years?

The first time that we went out,
it was--

- Oh. Pink Martini.

Café Carlyle, and nobody else
wanted my extra ticket.

- Oh, I did.
- [ Chuckles ] Yes.

- I loved Pink Martini.
- [ Chuckles ]

- Do you remember after the show
you walked with me

down to the subway?

- You missed your train?
- Yeah.

- It was a nightmare.
It was 115 degrees,

and it smelled awful.

- Like-- Like very expensive
French cheese.

[ Both laugh ]

You insisted on waiting with me
till my train came.

And it was on that very cheesy
subway platform

that my work crush
kind of metamorphosed

into love with you, D.

And that feeling, that--
that's never changed.

Not, in six years,
I mean, you could take out

a restraining order if you...
[chuckles]

if you really
don't want me around.

But it's not gonna matter
'cause I'm gonna wait with you.

Until you're on your train...

and the doors close and, uh...

...you're on your way.

I'm gonna wait with you.
