Previously on Doogie Kamealoha, MD.

What's there to teach? You grab a girl and give her a twirl.

Mom, that is the fourth unhoused person

we've turned away this week.

Look, I don't like it either.

But as Chief of Staff,

it's my job to balance the budget and I have a board to answer to.

Now that you're my girlfriend, I'm keeping you close.

Oh, we're adorable!

I already came up with our couple name. You know, like "Brangelina," "Kimye."

All divorced.

The hottest fires burn the fastest.

Look at you, Miss Shiniest Resident.

Every department wants you to pick them for your specialty.

I just wanna choose what I'd be best at.

Girl, you're the best at everything you do,

you're literally a child genius.

Do you know how hard it is

working with someone who's never made a mistake?

I've no idea what I want to do and it is...

scary.

My advice is not to focus on...

making the best choice.

Just follow what lights you up inside.

You have your whole life ahead of you.

Morning.

Wow. This is a lot of food.

Our drug rep dropped off breakfast.

I figured since Qwezeepin is spelled out in smoked salmon.

I think we should put away the lox before it goes bad.

Well, if it does, we can always take Qwezeepin.

It is the number one medication for nausea.

What? It's written in gold leaf in the cream cheese.

Huh. I didn't know Dr. Lee was all about them gains.

He measures his thighs every morning

and then records it in his gratitude journal.

Did he feel especially muscle-y when you were making out with him?

I hope you took Qwezeepin after.

Wait.

You guys know I kissed Dr. Lee?

Charles saw you two, and then swore me to secrecy.

What? And then I heard about it in the elevator

the next day from Nurse Jenny.

Oh, well, I may have told some of the nurses and an imaging tech guy

and the parking lot guys, but just the day ones, not the night ones.

Those guys cannot keep a secret.

I thought I was done with high school drama when I was 7.

Were there sparks when you made out with him?

Do you think you'll start dating?

No way. He's not boyfriend material. He's not a serious guy.

Well, I bet he could be serious.

What's up, losers.

Why are you dressed like that?

I've been selected as a finalist on The Bachelorette.

Working out a cool persona for the show.

Doctor Lee, Top Gun Surgeon.

I feel the need.

The need for speedy recovery. Whoo!

Where did you get that bomber jacket?

Oh. Our drug reps. Pretty dope, huh?

Oh, if you need any advice,

'cause I have seen every season of The Bachelorette, even the boring ones.

Just kidding. There are no boring ones.

Medical courier en route.

- I need to prep the OR. - I'll go meet the van.

Go, go, go!

Oh, oh, oh.

Good job, Doogie.

Mr. DeMatteis is on the table, prepped and ready.

What do we got? Kidney? Liver? Heart?

Butt.

Mr. DeMatteis is getting a brand new, state-of-the-art badunkadunk.

Come on.

I wanted to become a doctor to make a difference,

not give rich guys big butts.

Well, now you know what you don't wanna do,

have you decided on a specialty?

Not yet.

Oh, it's a big life decision.

I mean, peers twice your age struggle with choosing a specialty.

Mix in being a teen and everything else you're grappling with,

I'm sure it's... it's daunting.

It's okay if you feel a little lost.

Mom, I'm not some hormonal teenager.

You have enough of those already.

- I love your toes. - I love your toes.

- Aw. Stop it. - No, you stop it.

Can you both stop it?

You're weirding out my pet lizard.

What lizard?

Great. Scaley took a run for it.

He couldn't handle your baby voices.

Hey, we're not using baby voices.

Maybe a wittle.

- Yeah, just a wittle. - Just a wittle.

Kai, help your brother find his lizard.

Ugh. Fine.

You okay, Mom? You seem a little tense.

Next week, I'm presenting my Q2 budget to the board,

and the new hospital CEO, Max Lee, is gonna be there.

His billionaire dad acquired the hospital and made his son CEO.

So now I have to beg for a portable CT scanner

from a guy who started his own line of vodka.

You're gonna be awesome.

You're super persuasive.

Maybe you can convince Lahela to go to her 10-year high school reunion.

Save it for Max Lee, Mom. I'm not going.

Why not? I had a great time.

Yeah, because in high school, you were the BMOC.

King of the Island.

In high school, I was 7.

Okay, here's the thing.

High school can be a cruel place, but it's 10 years later,

and now all your old classmates have grown up.

They're all adults now.

We...

A 7-year-old in 12th grade was confusing for them,

but an almost 17-year-old doctor now that they're 27?

That's impressive.

I hadn't thought of it that way.

You'll have fun.

Liliuokalani High has this tradition

where everyone votes on reunion superlatives.

Like, most kids or most down to earth, or most successful alumni?

Most successful alumni? That's cool.

I didn't want to go because I never fit in and felt like a weirdo.

But if I won most successful alumni, I mean, everything would be different.

I was voted best body.

We found Scaley!

How about you use your best body to climb up there and get Scaley?

- You got it, boss. - Go get him.

Order for Max Lee.

- Mahalo. - Mahalo.

I went by your office

- and you weren't there. - Oh.

And so I thought, you did you're best, you deserve a shave ice,

and now look, here you are.

Moral of the story, breaks are good.

Congratulations on being named the new CEO.

Oh, that was my dad's idea.

Time to grow up, Maxie.

Can't hide in your nightclubs forever, Maxie.

We didn't get you into USC

as a fake collegiate rower for nothing, Maxie!

- I want you to know something. - Mm.

Even though I'm in charge, you're really running this show.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

I got a million of these.

- They're very expensive. - Um-hm.

Oh, one tiny thing.

I'm gonna take a vacay next week.

Could you present your budget on Thursday?

Oh, that... that's in two days.

Oh, it's either that or having me miss my vacation.

And we already established that breaks are good.

Um, okay, um, um, sure.

- Fun! - Yeah!

We make a great team.

Hi, Dr. Hannon.

- Oh. - I wanted to put in for some time off?

My improv comedy troupe, The Shahahakas, is going on tour.

I'll be gone for 28 days playing semi-sold out shows across America.

Oh, Jenny, no.

I can't lose a supervising nurse for 28 days.

Oh, it's kind of hard to yes and that, but I'll try.

Yes, you can't lose a supervising nurse for 28 days.

And I'll make it 27 days.

Thanks! Scene.

- Bye! - No. Jenny,

- I get... - Dr. Hannon.

Hey, I don't know if you've heard.

But I've been selected as a finalist to be on The Bachelorette.

I didn't know that.

It's okay, you don't have to pretend. It's already the talk of the hospital.

I honestly hadn't heard.

Right.

Anyway, as part of the selection process for the major TV show

you "didn't know" I was up for,

I have to present a sizzle reel.

So is it cool if I have a videographer just follow me around work?

Oh, I don't think...

You don't think that's gonna be a problem?

- Thanks, you're the best! - A...

- Hey. - Give me a double.

One double rainbow shave ice coming up.

- Rough day? - Rough week.

What is your secret for staying strong during an argument?

But you never had a problem sticking to your guns before.

I guess it's the enormity of being Chief of Staff.

I know I can do the job,

but everyone wants a piece of me and I just cave.

Hey, when I get overwhelmed,

I use my martial arts training to visualize the argument.

And that works?

Every time.

Huh.

I'll tell you more about it in a second.

- Sir, you can't park here. - No, no, no. Hey.

I use my martial arts training to visualize the argument.

I have a permit.

Sorry for troubling you today.

No problem, officer. Have a good day.

Be like Benny.

Oh, babe, do you know what today is?

Yeah. Our two-week-aversary!

That went by so fast.

Because it's two weeks.

We have milk older than your relationship.

Ugh.

Just remembered my parents want me to look after him today.

He's gonna third wheel our celebration and ruin the vibe.

We'll get through it, babe. We made it this far.

Not far, two Sundays!

Well, I'm going to go to your sister's room

to get ready for our celebration.

Wait, why don't you just take the stairs?

Old habits.

- Hey, pretty girl. - Oh, hey.

Check out this new contour tip I found on TikTok.

You place a spot on your cheek where you can feel your teeth

and then use a fluffy brush to get a soft-looking, high cheekbone.

Love it.

I'll have to wait to try it.

My mom's been borrowing all my makeup since she lost her purse in the ocean.

Huh.

Okay, I have my 10-year high school reunion today, and I need your help.

Which one says big-time doctor with a Roth IRA,

and a diversified portfolio of limited edition Air Force 1's?

I love the idea of you going to your reunion

to flaunt your revenge body of financial assets. But...

Denisco, you're not getting soft on me, are you?

Heck, no!

Revenge is my middle name.

Actually, it's Marie, but when I turn 18, I'm filing the papers.

I just think that showing up in your mom's Chevy Impala

isn't going to get you voted most successful,

but instead most sensible mid-size sedan.

And that is why I rented something with a little more wow.

♪ I don't meant it like that ♪

♪ Yeah, I let it died down ♪

♪ I wanna see you like that ♪

♪ Baby, we ain't like that ♪

♪ I don't meant it like that ♪

♪ Yeah, I let it died down ♪

Little more casual than I thought.

No problem. I got this.

I'm fine.

So, what do you guys do?

- I own a Jersey Mike's in Kailua. - Uh-huh.

What about you, Alison? What do you do?

- I work at a nursery. - Oh, very cool.

I've spent a lot of time in a nursery. OB rotation. Babies.

I'm a doctor. Have I mentioned that?

It was the first thing you said when you walked up.

You know, I still have to choose my specialty.

Right now, the front runners are neurosurgery and interventional radiology.

Have you guys voted for most successful alumni yet?

Is that a thing?

Yeah, apparently. I mean, it's silly.

But they actually gave me a ballot when I first got here

and there were, like, five of them stuck to it.

So here you guys can each have one of those.

And I also have pens. You can keep these.

- Qwezeepin? - It's a new prescription medication.

As a doctor, I get a bunch of free stuff from Big Pharma.

Code, perks. Am I right?

I had a bagel with gold on it.

Gold.

I wouldn't worry about those guys.

- Kayla, right? - Yeah.

You made your prom dress out of duct tape.

Oh, yeah. I still have scars from ripping it off.

And your date was your American Girl doll, huh?

Yeah. I still have scars from that too. Mine are emotional.

Makes sense.

So have you voted for most successful alumni yet?

Oh, no, I haven't heard of that.

If you vote for me, you can keep this pen.

Hey, thanks for helping me in my audition.

No problem. Okay, so the key is to have an interesting back story.

So let's just, like, ease you into this.

What's the most traumatic thing that's ever happened to you?

Oh, guy at the gym didn't wipe the weight bench.

Uh, posing for lots of selfies with guys I thought were Bradley Cooper.

- No? - Um...

My dad didn't love me?

Now we're talking.

Keep that nugget in your pocket for Hometowns.

Dr. Lee, I'd like a word.

Oh.

I don't like the sound of that.

Cardiothoracic emergency?

What? No. Are you doing a voice?

Cut. Yota, did we get that?

I lost her coming in.

Damn. All right, back to one.

That means go out and come back in.

No, no! No. You two out.

What's up?

And full disclosure, I'm mic'd up,

so if any of this is usable, it's going in the montage.

Be like Benny.

Mm. I'm not letting you film your audition on hospital property.

Why not? It's good press!

It's a violation of patient privacy.

I will blur their faces!

You've got all these lights and cords!

It's an insurance issue.

I'm afraid someone's gonna get hurt.

Okay, fine. You win, shoot's over.

But you just cost yourself a wrap gift. Big mistake.

You haven't lived until you've had me on your feet.

Boom.

Kai, babe, this is amazing!

Now, let me just cue up Minions for Brian Patrick, and the day is ours.

I wanted to watch Lord of the Rings.

I didn't know you liked Lord of the Rings.

I actually call my mom Gollum because she covets a ring so badly.

I...

You guys wanna watch?

Pass.

You shall not pass!

Well, now we have to watch.

How'd the campaigning go?

Oh, pretty well, although I could have circulated more

if my heels hadn't kept sinking into the ground.

Oh, yeah.

Probably why you don't see a lot of park rangers in Louboutins.

He's about to announce the reunion superlatives.

Aloha, Class of 2013!

I'm your senior class president, Bryson Chun!

Now, for the superlative we've all been waiting for...

Best Body.

And the winner is...

Peter Huie!

Hey, oh, guys, guys, thank you. Thank you.

Okay, okay. This next one's a biggie.

Most Successful Alumni goes to...

Peter Huie!

Hi, I'm Dr. Lee. And I'm a cardiologist.

- My specialty is healing hearts. - Welcome back.

But the only one I can't fix is mine.

That's where you come in.

This Maverick is looking for his co-pilot.

My biggest weakness is loving too hard, and my huge calves not fitting in jeans.

Oh, yay! I wrote that loving too hard line.

I could tell by the way you were mouthing along.

Wait, where are you guys going?

So, what do you think?

Well, I was a little confused because I thought I was there to watch a video

on continuous-flow left ventricular devices.

Well, I admit my email might have been a tad misleading,

but now that you've seen my audition tape.

You think I should send it in?

Sure, why not?

Well, I... I can't be on the show if I'm with someone.

Oh, right. I mean, that makes sense.

Right. So...

What's up with your finger?

Well, I mean, we never got to talk about that night?

Oh, you mean the night when we all went to Zippy's

and then you went to the bathroom and left without paying?

No, I'm talking about that unforgettable night where your lips touched mine,

and our souls joined together briefly for a moment.

The... the night that we...

The night that we kissed.

I know, I'm joking.

Look, I had fun.

But to be honest,

I'm looking for a Monday-through-Friday guy,

not a Saturday guy.

Huh.

That was rough, man.

- Go again? - No!

You're still here?

I didn't feel like going home and explaining why I was back so early.

Well, did you eat?

I've got some leftover teriyaki bento boxes?

I mean, they're pretty good for food not made out of gold.

Thanks.

I can't believe I told everyone I ate a gold bagel.

Yeah. Yeah, that was an odd flex.

Why'd you do that?

I guess I wanted their validation?

Because I'm kind of in a weird place right now.

I just broke up with my boyfriend.

And there's this other guy that I really like, but it's complicated.

And I have a major career decision to make.

And for the first time in my life, I have no clue what to do.

I mean, you're, like, 17.

You're just now the age the rest of us were back in high school.

You're not supposed to have all the answers.

You'll know when you know.

Thanks.

It means a lot.

Why are you being so nice to me?

- I don't remember us being friends. - You don't?

Don't worry. No, we barely knew each other.

But I... I do remember I was so nervous for a trig test one-time

and you helped me study for it.

How do you even remember that?

Sometimes a small gesture can make a big impact.

I like that.

What are you doing with all those bento boxes?

I can show you. If you give me a hand.

I'd like to talk to you about moving our meeting back to next week.

What color green is this?

Um, I'm not sure.

- We should change it. - I'm not doing that.

I just had these walls repainted six months ago.

We should change it.

Be like Benny.

Well, something needs to be done to liven this place up.

It should be aspirational.

Like Soho House.

I'm thinking leather wingback chairs.

This is a hospital, not a nightclub.

Fine, Danish modern.

My priority is a new CT scanner.

Your priority should be keeping your boss happy.

And until your daddy buys you a hospital, I'm the boss.

And the boss wants to redecorate.

We don't have the budget for that.

Then cut your CT scanner.

I'll run the numbers.

Fun!

I'll see you at the board meeting tomorrow.

I'll bring donuts!

Thanks for driving.

My bike doesn't have the best trunk space.

You know, I never got to ask you at the reunion.

What do you do now?

Well, in high school, I was really into fashion,

so I always thought I'd be like a big designer in Paris.

But my life took a different turn.

It did?

Yeah.

I noticed there was a growing unhoused population in Hawai'i.

And I wanted to put my talents to use closer to home.

So I started an outreach program

to makeover unhoused folks to get them ready for job interviews.

Wow. That is amazing.

You could have totally won Most Successful.

Why didn't you tell anyone at the reunion?

Oh, the people who matter know,

besides wanting to win something at a high school reunion...

it's pretty lame.

Fair.

Mahalo.

There's my beautiful bride!

I tried your trick of beating people up in my mind, and it didn't work.

I never told you to do that.

Yeah, you did!

To be fair, it did work on Dr. Lee...

but not even a little on my hospital's CEO.

Because you never beat a big boss like that.

When I said I use my martial arts training,

I meant I focus on my breathing to center myself,

so I don't get overwhelmed.

That's how you win an argument.

- What? - Follow me.

- Hello? - Oh.

Can I get my order? That's my shave ice melting behind you.

Sorry. We were breathing.

- On the house. - Yeah.

Oh, we're here. Pull over.

- Hey, look who showed up. - Hi, Clint.

- This is my friend, Lahela. - Hey.

We brought bento boxes.

- Oh, is anyone hungry? - Yeah.

Hey, you need some help?

- Yeah. - Oh, that'd be great. Thanks.

Thank you.

- Hey, Kayla? - Hi.

I have an interview to be a receptionist for an insurance agency.

Can I get a makeover?

I keep my clothes and my gear in a closet at the shelter.

- Do you mind? - Oh, no, it sounds like fun.

Let's do this.

I love that movie.

And they stayed pretty loyal to the books,

Well, I would like to thank you both for a wonderful date night.

Time to have a nightmare about Saruman.

Why did you let him watch a movie with us? I felt like the third wheel.

My mom's gone a lot, so it's usually just me.

I don't have any siblings.

You know, one of the reasons I love coming here is

because there's always family around.

I never realized you felt that way.

I'm sorry for being such a selfish ding dong.

You're not!

And you're nobody's third wheel.

You're my Legolas.

The Orlando Bloom character.

The hot elf that shoots arrows.

Oh, sick!

Thanks for your help today.

Oh, I should be thanking you.

You've turned a crappy day into a pretty great one.

Felt good to help.

How long have you had that cough?

I don't know. A while, I guess.

Have you seen a doctor?

Doctors don't come around here.

Well, you're welcome to come see me any time at the hospital.

Lahela's a doctor.

Wow. What kind?

Oh, you know, I've been thinking about that a lot recently,

and up until today, and getting to hang out with all of you,

I... I didn't know, but...

I do now.

I mean, don't keep us in suspense. What's your specialty?

People.

My specialty is helping people.

Noelani, report to the hospital entrance.

Okay.

What's going on?

I got on The Bachelorette.

- Oh, I am so excited. - What?

I leave for LA today.

To be honest,

the whole reason I even applied was to see if you are actually into me.

But since you're not...

Well, I never thought you were serious. Everything with you is always a joke.

Please, you've made your choice.

As your Chief of Staff,

I'm submitting for a portable CT scanner instead of redecorating the ER.

This new machine will keep our ICU patients safe.

Any questions on the Q2 budget?

Yeah, I'm not sure new equipment

is what this hospital needs to be investing in right now.

What if the image quality is worse?

They meet ACR standards and even allow for intra-operative imaging.

Hey, won't this crater Q3 and Q4?

Data from the Cleveland Clinic says these machines pay for themselves in six months.

Won't this require extra training and time away from patient here care?

This new machine is so simple even you could handle it, Mr. Ludwig.

Impressive.

During the flight back on my private jet,

I read an article that said these new machines increase exposure to radiation.

Now, I thought we were in the business of helping people, not hurting them.

Focus on your breathing.

Center yourself.

With all due respect to the in-flight magazine on your dad's private jet,

with standard safety measures in place,

there is no risk of higher doses of ionizing radiation.

And as Chief of Staff,

the safety of my patients and my doctors is always top of mind.

Dr. Hannon,

it's my recommendation...

that the board approve your budget.

Thank you.

No, thank you.

We make a great team!

With your professionalism and my attention to detail...

Ooh-ho.

I'm good.

I'll put a new chair in the budget.

It's funny.

If you're around someone for long enough you think you have them figured out.

But I've come to realize that people will surprise you.

And sometimes the person that surprises you the most is...

you.

A small gesture can make a big impact.

On the person you're helping...

but also...

on you.

Mom.
