Okay, so the pain is mainly on your
upper right side, and are you currently

taking any medication?

No. That's funny, though.

Yeah, that always does get a big laugh.

All right, what about any family
history?

Okay, please don't be mad, but I told a
bit of a whopper to get back here.

Okay. My real pain is in my soul.

I'm anxious.

My husband works here.

We got in a big fight, but I'm going to
get him back.

I'll stay for a sec. He's amazing.

Strong, brilliant.

Oh, are you talking about Dr. Kaufman
from Plastics? Oh, his calves are huge.

I don't care if they're fake. Oh, my
gosh. I think I see him. The one on the

left? Do you see?

Matt!

Matthew, it's me.

Violet?

Oh, Dink! Are you okay?

I'm okay.

Oh, Dink.

Matt's wife.

So apparently they were married for a
couple years and they broke up when he

went to nursing school. How crazy you
never thought anything.

Oh, that's the weird part?

What? Okay, if no one else is saying, I
will. A woman, an actual human woman,

married Matt.

Oh, come on.

Well, it's not tracking for me, to be
honest. Thank you.

Okay, now I see it.

You guys are being rude.

You know?

Oh, wow, wow. Wait, I missed it. What'd
she do?

Maddie, the kid, wifed up.

Well, you know what that means.

Final hold on. Yeah.

Marriage? No thanks.

You'll never take me alive. Get back.

No. No, not for Bruce.

All that get your clothes off the floor
and, you know, who picks the movie?

There's a flip side.

Companionship, sure. Love, trust.

Stability, I suppose.

Yeah, stability.

Yep. I will never have that.

Alex, may I speak with you for a moment?
Yeah. Kind of a tough convo, so you

might want to step away, Val. Nah.

Well, fine.

Alex, the turnover time for our patients
is way too slow.

Now, I'm not blaming you. I'm blaming
the nurses that work under you, like

Sorry, Val, but I did warn you. I'm
fine.

See, the longer a patient waits, the
less happy they are with their care.

I know. Yeah, we need to hire more
nurses. No, this is not a numbers

This is an attitude problem.

Your nurses need more pets. Pets. I
mean, look at us right now. Here we are

gabbing away, flapping our jaws. You
asked me to talk.

Yeah, and I was hoping you'd be too busy
to spare the minutes.

Joyce, we're doing our best. Okay, the
ER averages 40 patients in a 12 -hour

shift. Okay, well, we need that to be
50. All right. Well, unfortunately,

actually down. a nurse today so we're
probably not even going to reach our

target we will reach 50 because i am
going to step in myself

you'll see what a little pep can do yeah
dr henderson back on the floor

scratch that nurse henderson md dude

how come you never told us you were
married

Kind of a big thing to leave out.

I know. I wanted a fresh start, you
know? I didn't want to be the weird guy.

Well, you are the weird guy, and this
would have changed nothing.

Can I ask you a question?

Personal? You know, divorcee to
divorcee? Our circumstances are a little

different. I know. Well, you're old, but
have you ever had a situation where

your ex thought you made a huge mistake
and really wanted to get back together?

No,

Matt. I've never encountered that
particular issue. We did have a nice

about how much of my life insurance
payout she was entitled to receive. Was

helpful?

I was just so sure we needed to give
another shot.

Well, tell her you don't want to.

I mean, unless you're still in love with
her.

Right.

Once again, thank you, Dr. Emerson. Dr.
Emerson to Zone A.

Dr. Emerson, you are needed immediately.

Back in my life.

I left a woman on the table, Bruce.

So did I.

You. Hold on. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I just don't think I gave us enough of a
shot.

I broke up with you. Because I was
emotionally unavailable as a tactic.

I pushed you away.

Don't want to get into it, but your car
was shockingly dirty. It gave me the

ick. But what do you say we give this
crazy thing another shot?

We can hire someone to clean your car.

I'm going to say this as nicely as
possible.

No. Well, the nicest way would have been
to say yes, even if deep down you had

serious reservations. It's over.

I'm seeing someone else.

Plenty of fish.

None that come to mind, though.

Slam dunk case of strep throat.

Get those meds and get the heck out of
here.

I'm kidding, but you are done.

All right, cruising our way to 50. Looks
like a little pep is paying dividends.

If she gets us to 50 patients, she'll
never hire more nurses.

God, I know. We've got to figure out a
way to slow her down, you know? Prove

wrong. I mean, if one of her patients
died.

Well... It would slow her down, though.
No, stop.

Mm -hmm.

She's kidding.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

No, I'm sorry.

I showed up here totally unexpected,
like a jalapeno on your banana split.

It's just that... Oh, goodness.

Are you okay? How long has that been
bothering you? It... It's fine.

My stomach hurts because my heart is
lonely. And I've been sweating a lot

because my heart is sad. Right. Well,
maybe we should still... I prepared

something. I wrote it on some TP from
the train bathroom.

Matthew Ebenezer Charles Jedediah
Pearson.

It's me, Violet Elizabeth Chastity
Stokely Pearson.

Hang on. I care about you, okay? A lot.
But I just don't think we have that

connection anymore.

Our lives are really different.

Oh, okay.

It's not a bad thing.

Kind of embarrassing.

I emptied the entire dispenser.

Violet. People probably went without,
and it was for nothing.

It's okay.

I'm fine.

I'd like to leave now.

Yeah, I'll get the discharge started.

Hey, ma 'am.

Your ex's wife blitz will come super
high. We've got to figure out what's

on. What?

Son of a bouncy body.

Can't you just curse like a normal
person?

What's normal cursing?

You guys are going to bleep that, right?

Okay, abdominal pain in the upper right
quadrant, fevers, that is classic for a

gallbladder infection.

I'll tell her she needs an ultrasound.

No, no, no, no, no, no. We talked about
the touch -in.

She's not going to listen to you. You're
a doctor.

Our community doesn't believe in
medicine. That's why going to nursing

meant I had to leave.

I mean, it's why we got divorced.

How are you people still alive?

Does inbreeding improve the immune
system?

Oh, okay, yeah, we're inbreeders. Who
have you been talking to, the Fergusons?

Because they're the inbreeders. I stand
corrected. I apologize.

Now, look, I don't know if you're... X
wants to believe this or not, but she's

really very sick, so try and keep her
here.

So yeah, I gave him the tablet, but I'm
the aunt. It's my sister's job to

monitor what he's watching.

And done.

Discharged.

Another one bites the dust.

Joy, quick question. Could you use your
expertise?

Quicker. I'm dialing you up to 1 .25.
Okay, I'm not a podcast.

So, there is a patient who's requested
an MRI, and his insurance will cover it

unless it's deemed necessary, but catch
22, we can't deem it necessary without

an MRI. Oh, so dumb. I know, yes. Can
you please call his insurance and tell

them how dumb it is so we can get him
treated and discharged? A phone call,

that's it?

Of course. Consider it done with pap.

Okay. You're a grand old flag. You're a
high flag.

Yeah, insurance calls are pretty quick.

Yeah, I think my last one was only an
hour and a half.

That is quick.

The on hold music's catchy, though. It's
like...

Violet,

please don't go.

Why not?

You don't want me.

Well, maybe I spoke too soon.

Really? Yes, but I just need you to kind
of go through the motions of being a

patient because that's the only way we
can keep talking.

Are you sure?

Yes. Just please, today.

Okay. Hey, Dr.

Ron, can we order an ultrasound?

Violet really wants one. Really? Oh,
yeah. I love ultrasounds. They taste so

good. Oh, yeah. So I put some feelers on
after Dr.

Emerson said she was seeing someone
else.

I got a lot of contacts here.

Lots of people in my corner.

They put the pieces together pretty
fast.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Is this seat taken? Uh, nope.

But there was a huge puddle of something
on it.

Nah, there wasn't. Wasn't water.

Something else for sure. Uh, listen, I,
uh, heard some chatter. Probably not

true. You and Dr. Emerson are seeing
each other?

We've been sharing some time.

Uh -huh.

Well, I just thought you should know
that there's some unresolved feelings

between her and I. Me and her.

Her and I.

We can look it up. Don't want to look it
up.

Just a fair warning that there might be
a little friendly competition coming

your way.

Brooke's a beautiful woman.

Who's Brooke?

Dr. Emerson. Brooke Emerson, right. No,
more mumbling. I didn't know Brooke.

Hey, if there's unfinished business
there, go for it.

Honestly, I just want her to be happy.

I mean, that's very gracious of you.

Okay, well, I guess that's why you're a
chaplain.

Just don't come crying to me like a
little bitch when she says no.

Wait, I'm sorry, what?

Oh, sorry.

I don't want to raise my voice.

I said, don't come crying to me like a
little bitch when she says no.

How's it going with your lady friend?
You seem kind of tense.

Oh, yeah.

Dr. Ron ordered an ultrasound, but I
can't find the requisition code.

Here. I just saw you guys holding hands
and thought, oh, maybe he's in tour.

No, that's not it. I feel like a
monster.

What?

Not like a literal one, not Dracula.

He has an excuse. He needs blood or
else.

Okay, you're losing me.

The only way to get Violet to stay and
get the care she needs is if I make her

think we still have a chance.

Hey, come on.

That's fine.

You're a good guy and you're doing the
right thing. Yeah?

I mean, not with the rec code.

We're about to put her on chemo.

I'm aware.

of where you and Matt come from, and I
don't know if you're prepared to hear

what I have to say.

Oh, no, that's not true at all. But I
thought you all think medicine is silly

and all of that. Sure, one tenet of our
religion is that we heal through prayer,

but an even bigger tenet is respect for
elders.

You carry the fire of wisdom through the
ages, and it is a blessing to receive

it. Wow, I like that tenet a lot.

Perhaps I judged Matt's cult too
harshly. Well, cult really isn't the

word. It's more of a commune. Organic
farming, harvest festivals.

Sure, there's the ultra -religious
nonsense, but respect for your elders,

just shows character.

No, the MRI will give us the evidence.
Are you not seeing the paradox?

Don't put me on hold!

Stella, Stella.

Let me know when an actual human being
comes on the line. I have other

Joyce, you know what? These patients are
all taken care of. So go see Mr.

Reynolds in 107. 107?

Yeah.

Oh, we got some real stinkers lined up
for Joyce.

Those patients suck.

I mean, they're just a lot. A lot of
suck.

Hello, Mr. Reynolds.

What seems to be the problem?

Chime.

Okay.

Can you be more specific?

First of all, they've taken over
manufacturing.

We used to make things in this country.

The gel helps the conductivity as the
sound waves come out of this transducer

here. I love that. Is medical school
just learning super fun words all day?

Well, that's a lot of it.

Matthew,

come sit.

I want to show you something.

I brought you a cup of water. Not sure
if you still like those. Aw, me too.

Oh, so this is a photo album of us as
kids.

Oh, Maddie. Oh, our high school
graduating class.

The two of you? We weren't even the
smallest grade.

Yeah, the grade below us was just Ethan.

He lives in the woods now.

Nice powder.

Where'd you guys ski?

Oh, that's our backyard.

I do miss Mount Pearson.

Wait, you have your own mountain?

Yeah, mountain, lake, a bunch of creeks.

How do you think Maddie became such a
man's man?

Why don't we get started?

Okay, so when you're ready, madam.

Apples from the orchard. Wow, all that
harvesting. That's a lot of hard work,

though. The young people do that work.
The elders aren't allowed.

The young produce, the elders consume.

Yep, my grandpa signed that into law
right when he turned 60.

Oh, I fibbed. I made it seem like I made
the fritters when really it was my

mother. There she is.

That's your mom?

Mm -hmm.

Oh, my goodness.

She's... A very good -looking woman.

Thank you. How old is that picture?

Oh, that's from last year, right before
my father passed.

Is she all alone now?

It's interesting.

There is a path here where I end up,
Matt's dad.

It is interesting.

My grandpa pronounced us man and man's
wife, and they released about a million

doves. They flew right into us. We were
covered in poop at our wedding.

She didn't know when we were doomed.

I don't know. It was still kind of a
perfect day. You know, our families were

there, all our friends, everybody we
loved.

It really felt like we were exactly
where we were supposed to be.

It was perfect.

Okay, so the pain is right on the side.
Your grandma was German, right?

Huh?

German.

You know, a lot of their wristwatches
don't go tick, tick, tick.

Their hands go around smoothly.

Then there's the war, of course.

It's a little harder than I thought it
would be. I haven't used the bathroom

since 8 a .m., but on the plus side, I
also haven't eaten, so not much to get

rid of. Maybe a little from last night,
but we're hitting the numbers.

Pep, Pep, Pep.

Pep!

Hey, good job in there.

You too.

Okay.

Where's that?

Is that you or... Oh, my God. I was
trying to check my tag.

Instead, I put on Baby by Brandy.

You remember this one?

Bruce, I'm trying. Yeah, we hooked up to
this one.

What's going on over here?

Please, just ignore him.

Don't worry, I will.

A little dance party? It'll be a bit
advanced for you.

A little wooden.

What, are you counting the beat in your
head there, bud? It takes a lot more

than that to make me wooded.

Okay, you got this one?

So you dated both those guys?

Yeah.

I got that. Yeah.

Let me bless you with this one.

Oh, no, I don't think I've got that one.

I can take that all day.

All right, well, how about this?

Now that was a buffalo.

Hey, Joy.

How many patients till we clear 50?

Three. But you only have a minute left.

But hey, you know, you gave it a good
run. I can do this.

You don't have to do this. It's fine.

You know, that reminds me. You're
clearly a very lonely and bored man.

But there is a vibe between us. I feel
it. You feel it. It's undeniable. I

we need to explore this over drink
tonight outside the hospital.

Okay. Great. Discharge.

You listen to me, the doctor.

Our patient needs an MRI, and you are
going to pay for it.

We're still on hold. Yeah, just send him
to imaging. We'll fight this later.

Discharge.

Only one left.

Is it weird that I'm rooting for her? So
am I.

When I was 39, a tall man named Robert
took me to the Rainforest Cafe and

me this possum in the gift shop. He
kissed me during the tropical rainstorm

show. It changed the nature of my
desire, okay?

But if you take that medicine right now,
I will give you Mr.

Possum.

Discharge! Hey!

I lied!

I did it. I did it. I did it. Um, carry
me.

Oh, dear. Okay.

Val! Valerie?

Nine acres for $40 ,000?

be right?

You seem psyched.

I can feel it. He wants to be with me.

Well, Matt cares about you. That's
definitely true.

Nothing has changed between us.

Well, some things have changed.

I only mean Matt lives here now. He's
made a lot of new friends. Good friends.

You can't change your heart. You can
change your heart.

Matt loves me.

Well, then why has he never mentioned
you?

No, no, I'm sorry.

He does care about you. That's why he's
trying to keep you here, to help.

Keep me here? What does that mean?

Um, nothing.

Is he pretending he has feelings just to
keep me here?

Oh.

Oh.

So none of this is real?

You're sick, Vi, and I'm... That person,
you...

Don't say things we can't take back. But
you lied.

You said you'd be with me forever, and
then you left to follow your dream.

What about my dream? To have a family?

To have people see me on the street and
say, hey, there's that person with the

family. The one that exists.

Violet, I want that for you, but your
gallbladder is infected, and if you

get surgery, you could die.

That's the truth.

And I don't know what I'd do if
something happened to you, so I'm asking

trust me.

I do trust you.

I came all this way for you.

I have to know if your feelings are gone
or if there's still some in there.

Violet, I told you. Show me with a kiss.

One kiss.

And if you truly feel nothing, I'll let
it go.

I will get this stupid surgery and I
will let you go.

Yeah. It gets better than that.

Damn.

The demands on you guys are so high.
Almost impossible.

Exactly. Joyce, we are spread too thin.
And yet possible because I did it. Okay.

I mean, you did just throw up and then
down like three Gatorades. So doesn't

that prove we need more staff?

I don't think so. No.

But you have earned a newfound respect
from me. What I want is more staff.

I'm going to give you one more.

Half shift per week. One.

Are you happy? Not really. Well, neither
am I. So that's evidence of a good

compromise. So every Tuesday night, they
clear the tables, right? They bring in

a DJ.

I'm scared of being alone.

And that's crazy because I'm not alone.

I've got Chaplain Steve, who's honestly
a really great guy. We have to go. Oh,

we're going.

Are you kidding me? We are going.

I don't know. We just click.

What about Brooke?

Hmm? Who's Brooke?

Hey, Matt.

Oh, Violet's about to go into surgery.

Yeah, got it.

Concerning this cult of yours.
Homestead. Yeah, whatever. Can anyone

retire to the skiing mountain with the
women that love the old people and all

that? Yeah. Outsiders just have to join
a religion.

I can do that. And get double
circumcised.

Say what?

It's sad how these people live,
uneducated about the world. It may seem

but it's dark.

It's not good.

Sorry, I blew up your spot.

Nah, it's for the best.

Depending, I feel kind of guilty.

You only like to help her. Give yourself
a break.

No, I kind of held back on the kiss.

Didn't give her the full Matt magic.

Oh, really?

Yeah, I only gave her like 25%. Okay,
Blair.

I feel a lot better.

I'm not sure if it's because I got
closure with Matt or because a doctor

science on me, but either way, this trip
was a success.

And Matt, he's where he should be.

I wanted to take him home to his family,
but maybe this is his family.

Oh, and also, they let me keep as many
of these as I want.
