.

- I appreciate you filling in.
Really.

- You're back a little early.

- I need a signature.

- Well, hopefully
you can tolerate

a power sharing agreement.

- I'm sick.

I may not die today,
but it's coming,

and there's nothing
I can do to stop it.

- This has gone from fun
to a little terrifying.

What's going on with you?

- I don't want to die.

- Are there any surgical
supplies in that medical kit?

[dramatic music]

- Her pulse is coming back up.

- There's been some talk about
a "Nick of Time" reboot.

- I'm done with that part
of my life, you know?

- It's easy money.
- We just want to see-

- I'm sick.

- I have to decide if I want to
be back in the same position,

taking care of them
financially.

I was thinking
a little bit more about

the "Nick of Time" reboot.
- Oh, yeah?

- Tell them I'm in.

- Dr. Abrams came by earlier,
said there's still no shrinkage

to the spinal mass.

- Well, it's only
your second treatment.

It's off-label.
It needs time to take effect.

- I know this hasn't been
easy for you, son,

signing up for the reboot
and looking after your old man.

What I'm trying to say
is thank you.

It means the world to me
to have you

back in our lives again.

- I feel the same, Dad.

- Hey. I saw you tried
to call me last night.

- Oh, yeah, sorry.
That was-it was nothing.

- Yeah, well, I'm sorry
I didn't pick up.

I was with Jennifer,
and I didn't notice it

till the morning.

What did you want
to talk about?

- I've been thinking
a lot about the baby shower

that everyone's throwing
for me tomorrow.

- OK?

- I'd cancel it,
but I'm nervous

that I'll just be
disappointing everyone.

What do you think?
- What do I think?

I think the only person's
disappointment you need

to worry about is your own.

You know, maybe mine.

- I'll cancel it.
- OK.

- Thank you.

Oh, and hey, I'll try not to
call that late moving forward.

- So you think it went well?
- Well, which part?

You know, the EKG
or the PF study

or the fMRI somebody threw in
at the last minute?

Whose idea was that?
- Well, that came from legal.

My guess is trying to placate
the insurance company

carrying our
malpractice policy.

- You know what?

A lesser man might
be insulted having

to take a battery of tests
to get his job back after

29 years of stellar service.

- Yeah, well, I'm sure
a lesser man would.

But seriously, any lingering
effects from the hemorrhage?

- Nope.
- I'm relieved.

- Look, I don't want
to freak you out,

but there is a small
but very real chance

that I could, in fact,
be, um, immortal.

[laughter]

- You know, Daniel, I'm really
glad you decided to stay.

I'm not so sure I'd like
being here without you.

- Right back at you, old pal.
- [chuckles]

- Morning.
- Morning.

- I feel like we haven't had
a shift together in a while.

- You are right.
I make the schedule.

- Hey, I was thinking maybe
we should grab dinner,

talk about the other night.

- Yeah, maybe.
- Hey, guys.

Some jackass just parked in
the middle of our ambo bay.

- Oh.
Excuse me.

- It's-
- [grunts]

- Oh, use your abdominals.
I-

- Kip.
- Oh, Caity, good.

Here, hi.
I need your help.

Uh, this is my colleague, Troy.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- I just talked a customer
into a luxury vehicle upgrade.

Troy ran off to pull it around,
and he fell down the stairs.

He was acting kind of spacey,
so I drove him over here.

- Yeah, did you hit
your head, Troy?

- I think so.

- Mm-hmm. You should have
called an ambulance.

- Hang tight, Troy,
we'll get you a gurney.

- Hey, jagoff,
I got a pregnant patient

whose water broke back here.
- You need to move your car.

- It's not my car.
It's one of my rentals.

- I got you, Matt.
- This is a hospital.

- I will move it.

- Hey, guys, I'm Dr. Asher.
I'm an OB.

The medic said
that your water broke?

- I'm only at 36 weeks.

This can't be happening.
- OK, it's OK.

Sometimes labor comes
earlier than expected.

Babies tend to call the shots.

And you're only a week
before being term, so...

- No.
You don't understand.

If I go into labor,
my baby will die.

[dramatic music]

? ?

.

- The good news is you're
only a half centimeter dilated

and contractions
haven't begun yet, so...

- So I haven't
started labor yet?

- No, not yet.

- [sighs]
Thank God.

They told me that
everything would get

infinitely more complicated
once contractions started.

- All right, I think
this is the best image

I'm going to be able to get.

- OK, I can see that teratoma
now constricting the airway.

When was this first diagnosed?

- Uh, during my anatomy scan
at about 20 weeks.

My OB didn't know
what it was at first.

- It's pretty rare for a fetus

to develop a teratoma at all,

never mind one
compromising its airway.

- We've been told that
she won't survive childbirth

without an exit procedure.
- Exit procedure?

- An ex-utero
intrapartum treatment.

It's a specialized delivery
where you can stabilize

the baby's airway
while it's still attached

to the umbilical cord.

- We had one scheduled up
at Mayo a week after next.

I was told that I still had
plenty of time to spare.

- I-I couldn't reach
Dr. Shumaker.

They said they'd try
and page her.

Is it possible to be medevacked
up to Rochester?

- I wouldn't advise so
at this juncture, no.

- Why?

You said that
I hadn't started labor yet.

- Breaking your water
indicates that contractions

can begin at any moment.
- [sighs]

- We can give you something
to help try to delay them.

- OK.

- 20 of nifedipine?
- Make it 30.

In the meantime, I'll consult
with our pediatric surgery team

to see about performing
the procedure here.

Don't worry, we're going to
take good care of you, OK?

- I was afraid you left.
I wanted to wish you good luck.

- We don't say good luck
in the biz.

We say break a leg.

- Oh, well,
I'm not sure I can say that

without violating
my Hippocratic oath, so...

- Yeah, right.

Seriously, though, how do you
feel about acting again?

You excited?
- More like obligated.

You see, it was either
do the reboot

or sell a kidney to pay
for my dad's treatment.

And I did a lot of
drinking in undergrad,

so it's not a viable option
for me.

- Well, I'm sure you must
have had fun acting, right?

- It had its moments.

- [chuckles]

OK, what's with the Cartier?

- Oh, that.
Um...

it's a gift from Miranda.

The lady that delivered it
called it a tank watch.

- Wow.
It's classy.

- Yeah, I don't know.

I don't really feel
comfortable accepting it.

- You only helped
save her life.

- No, all I did was answer
the phone when it rang.

Ms. Goodwin did all the work.
- Come on.

You should still accept it, OK?

You know what they say,
don't look a gift horse

in the pericardium.
- What?

- I don't know.
it sounded cooler in my head.

- [laughs]
- I gotta run, OK?

- OK.
- Follow my finger.

- Your CT looks
rather unremarkable,

but you had pain
in your neck when

Dr. Ripley put on
your C-collar?

- Uh-huh.
- OK.

- Oh, hey.

The parking garage
was a trek and a half.

- I'd like to send you up
for an MRI

to rule out any ligamentous
injury, just to be safe.

- Uh, does this qualify
for workers' comp?

- That is something you should
discuss with your supervisor.

- So, Kip.

- Or his supervisor.

But for now, just hang tight
till we get you that MRI.

- OK.

- I'll call and ask.

Whew, saving lives, man.

Such a rush.
I get the appeal.

How long is
medical school again?

- Considering med school?
- No, just ignore him, Mitch.

- Oh, wait, wait, wait,

you're the infamous
Dr. Mitch Ripley?

Well, I've heard
so much about you.

- Have you?

- This is neither the time
nor the place, Kip.

- Oh, crap.
Sorry.

We, uh, still keeping this
a secret at work?

- Nice to meet you, Kip.

I got another patient
to get to.

- Oh.
Trouble in paradise?

- Waiting room or
your friend's trauma room.

I'm working.

- [chuckles]
OK.

- Dr. Ruiz, I'm just curious
why this patient

is being discharged,
since it looks like

we gave him a milligram of
risperidone only an hour ago.

- He appears to have
calmed down completely.

- Hospital policy mandates that
we keep him under observation

for a minimum of
three hours, right?

So what do you say
we split the difference

and check in on Mr. Abramowitz
in another hour?

- Uh-
- That's on me, Daniel.

If you ask me,
we've been awfully conservative

with the potential
drug interactions.

And in this case,
the confidence intervals

for the drug's efficacy
is basically the same

at three hours
as it is at one hour,

save for the very rarest
of edge cases.

- OK.

- And that time savings
has really helped

with bed turnover rate.
- That's great.

Only thing is, like,
I actually designed the policy

specifically to identify
and, you know,

protect those outliers,
those edge cases.

That was kind of
the whole idea.

- Got it.

I was just looking for ways
to be more efficient.

- Which is great.

- But let's keep
Mr. Abramowitz here

for another hour, Dr. Ruiz,
and get another BP reading.

- Yes, sir.

- Theo, you know, um, look,
if you've had any other ideas

that you want to or
have been experimenting with

while I was away,
let's get together,

give them a look.
- Great.

I'll send you a list.

- First off, I have to say,

I might be your guys'
biggest fan.

Yeah, I mean, I literally
grew up on this show,

and now here I am,
breaking bread

with Nick and Mac,
the Time Team,

back in action.
- Well, thank you.

And, hey,
anything you need from us

to get this thing going?

- Well, for starters,
we've got a big new concept

for the reboot that the studio
is really excited about.

- Dude,
you're going to love this.

- We're going to be bringing in
a new set of best friends

to find the backpack,
tween girls this time,

McKenzie and Nicole.

- Nicole's my daughter.
Get it?

Next-gen Nick and Mac?
- I got it, bro.

[laughs]
- All right.

- Jonathan, we were thinking

you could be
Nicole's fun uncle.

- Wow.

- And don't worry, we're going
to be totally flexible

working around your schedule.

- Oh, I'm just doing
the first episode,

but this really does
all sound great.

- Oh, and there she is.
- Oh, I see them.

- Surprise.

We got another original
cast member to sign on.

The fans are going to go crazy.

Hi.
[chuckles]

- Did you know about this?
- No, but this is great.

It's just like old times, huh?
- Thank you.

- Oh my goodness,
Ainsley, come here.

- Hi, hi.
- Hi.

- OK, sit down, everybody.
Sit down.

[soft dramatic music]

? ?

So what did I miss?

? ?

.

- Dr. Asher,
you wanted to speak

with me about your patient?
- Yes.

I consulted with
our pediatric surgical team,

and it seems that
our exit procedure

specialist is, unfortunately,
out of pocket today, so...

- I'd heard,
but luckily I just arranged

to fly Dr. Shumaker
down from Minnesota.

She'll be here within the hour.
- That's good news.

Is she licensed to
practice in Illinois?

- Well, considering
the circumstances,

we'd be more than happy to
grant her emergency privileges.

- OK. I will let Giselle
and Xander know.

- Great.

- Shouldn't you be
back at work?

- Oh, well, assistant manager
has its perks.

- Mm.

- Plus, I thought
I'd stick around

until Troy got discharged
so I could drive him home.

- OK.

- And I want to know the deal
between you and Ripley.

It seemed like there was
some tension between you two.

- I don't even know why
I told you about him.

It was hardly a thing, and it
might not even be that anymore.

- You guys are perfect
for each other.

He's a doctor.
You're a doctor.

You could still date
and work 80 hours a week.

- This conversation is over.

- Look, I'm just saying,
I never thought that I

would settle down
until I met Gemma.

- Well, maybe you and I
are just different people.

- How so?

- Dr. Lenox, Dr. Ripley
is asking for you.

- My arms.
My arms.

They feel like they're on fire.

- He's been complaining of a
tingling and burning sensation.

- Right here.
Troy, squeeze my hands.

- [groans]
- His grip is weakening.

- Hey, what's going on?
- Out of the room, Kip.

I don't want to have
to tell you that again.

- OK, OK, OK.

- I think we might be looking
at a spinal cord injury.

- Well, let's fold in
Neurosurg.

- OK.

[tense music]

? ?

- I looked online.

It's very expensive.
- Indeed.

- I gather it's a thank you
gift for having helped

save her life, and,
well, I'm not sure

what I should do about it.

I mean, it's very pretty,
but for some reason, I-

- It doesn't sit right
with you.

- Mm-mm.

I was just doing my job.

And I don't want to seem rude
or ungrateful,

especially to a board member,
but I feel like

I should return it
to Ms. Lewis.

- Leave the watch with me.

I'll take care of it
with Ms. Lewis.

- You're sure
it's no imposition?

- More than sure.

- So, Nicole, right?

She isn't sure what to make
of the backpack at first,

until a little talk
from Nana and Uncle Mac.

- Oh, wait, Nana?
That's frightening.

- Tell me about it.

I'm going to be playing
the dad of a teenager.

[laughter]

- Trust me, Ainsley, you'll be
the hottest nana on TV.

- Stop.

- But what I really wanted
to focus on moving forward

was the mother/son dynamic
you two have going.

- Yeah, no, you're right,
Angelica.

Jonathan and I have always
had great chemistry.

- I'm sorry,
you guys are trying to get

all of this just in the pilot?

- Well, I figured since
we have Ainsley back,

there was more juice
to squeeze there.

- So Matt could pop in
from time to time

throughout the season?
- Exactly.

And it would mean
a lot more money.

- You know, I think this
all sounds great.

I mean, our characters
obviously have a lot

to work through
after all these years.

I-

[soft dramatic music]

- Yeah, um,
I don't think they do.

? ?

- No, don't go, Jonathan.
I will go.

- Please, hey, you stay.
OK?

I, um I have to get back
to the hospital.

Thank you for lunch.

? ?

- No, it's not the LVAD.
We're way past that.

Her heart is shot.

They can't keep the fluid
off of her lungs.

Look, I don't know.
Um...

Listen, we're at Gaffney.
If you wanted to say goodbye-

- Trini,
call palliative care

and get a morphine drip
ready to transition

to comfort care.
- Right away.

- Things, uh,
looking pretty bleak in here,

I guess, Deano?

- Yeah,
congestive heart failure.

I'm afraid the poor woman's
run out of road, as they say.

- Right.
- Yeah.

- Not even on the transplant
list anymore, is she?

- If I had a new heart
to give her today,

it wouldn't matter.

Just doing all I can
to keep her comfortable.

- You've got a lot of nerve.

- Oh, that's right.
You know each other.

- Know each other?

He killed my sister,
decided that she wasn't worthy

enough to receive a heart while

she still had
a chance to live.

Like, the prick
thinks he's God.

- Celia, listen,
I know that there's

nothing I could say
to make you believe

what I'm about to tell you,
but I am genuinely sorry

that it has come to this.

I truly am.

- You should go.
- No.

[somber music]

Let him see what he's done.

? ?

.

- Yo, what was that all about?

- I'm not doing
the show anymore.

All right?
I'm out.

- You know this whole thing
falls apart if you walk.

- I'm sorry.
- Dude!

You're doing the reboot.
You're not doing the reboot.

Like, what is going on
with you, man?

Hey, this might just be a game
for you, but this is my life.

Like, why are you
jerking me around?

- I cannot do this
with Ainsley, all right?

- Why? What the hell is
going on between you two?

- You really don't know?
- Know what?

I thought you guys
were friends.

[somber music]

Oh.

- Yeah.

- We were just kids then.

- We were.

I was.

- Why didn't you ever tell me?

- She told me I needed
to keep it a secret.

Look, Ian, I know what
this means for you,

and I'm sorry.

I really am.

But being back in there,
seeing her, I-

? ?

It just brought me back to
right where when I was a kid.

? ?

I can't do that
to myself again.

- It's OK.

I get it, man.

Hey, really.

- I'm sorry, man.
- No, come here.

- I'm sorry.
- It's OK. It's OK.

? ?

- I hear a little bundle of joy
sped up her time of arrival.

- Thank God.

Dr. Shumaker,
I know I messed up

not coming up
to Rochester earlier.

- Oh, it's OK, Giselle.

That's what helicopters
are for, right?

You must be Dr. Asher.
I'm Liza.

- Hi.

- I understand
she's begun contractions?

- Yes, we've begun talking
about possible ramifications.

- Dr. Asher thinks
it's too risky now.

- How dilated is she?
- Six centimeters.

But it's more the rate
of change

that I'm concerned about.

- It's not ideal, I agree, but
as long as we can start soon,

I'm confident I can still
perform the procedure,

if that's what you guys want.

- Yes, that's what we want.

- I'll have an OR staffed
and ready to go in ten.

- Did you eat today?
- Yeah.

- If you look here at C5/C6,
you'll see what appears

to be enhanced cord signaling.

- We're thinking
central cord syndrome.

- Yeah, that's what
I'm seeing, as well.

You were right to bring us in,
though I'm a bit confused

with the imagery here.
- How so?

- I'm not sure you can
attribute much of this damage

to the fall this guy took.

See this here and here?

That looks more like damage
caused by excessive extension.

Did he come in immobilized?

- No.
No, he wasn't.

- What dumbass EMT didn't know
enough to put a collar on him?

- He was actually brought in
by a civilian.

- Well, unless this guy
wants to risk permanent loss

of function of both arms,

we'd recommend an anterior
cervical disk fusion.

- All right, let me know
when he's prepped.

I'll pop in to see
what you all find.

- Hey, is he going to be OK?

- Troy had
a little complication

from the fall he took,
and his spine is not

as stable as we'd hoped for.

So we're sending him
up to surgery now.

- Oh, man.
Did I do something wrong?

- No, no,
you did good bringing him in.

There's a waiting room
outside the OR.

You can hang out there.

- OK.

- OK, don't look
at me like that.

Kip is very sensitive.

Sometimes he needs to be
protected from the truth.

That's my job.

- I was just going
to say that I think

you're being a good sister.

- Time of death 17:23.

- Sorry, Daniel.

I know this is
a lot to process.

- It was a tough call to make.

- But still,
it's a huge burden to place

on any one person's shoulders,

even someone
as strong as yours.

- You know what,
I really appreciate you

saying that, Theo,
but, um, that was the job

that I signed up for.

But thank you.

- I mean, as it stands today,
maybe.

But that's why I keep
pushing fMRI so hard.

Do you realize how close we are
to a world where we can use

hard data to make these kinds
of painful decisions

objectively, instead of
relying on somebody's judgment?

- Are you serious?
- I'm dead serious.

- You're honestly telling me
you think an fMRI

could determine whether Linda,

an addict with
very shaky sobriety

who was probably
going to relapse and,

in the process, probably reject
that heart, waste that organ,

you think a machine
could make that call?

No, Theo.
No.

Only a human being can make
that determination.

So why not me?

- I think you're
misunderstanding me.

- Buddy, sometimes
I honestly wonder

if you are in
the right line of work.

[soft dramatic music]

? ?

- So is this your first?

- Exit procedure?

- No, pregnancy.

- Yes, actually.

For both.

- I've got three kids myself.

The first one, I worked
all the way up until delivery.

The last two, though,
I took leave at about 30 weeks.

Between being on my feet
all day and the hormones,

it was just so hard.

I wasn't being fair
to my patients.

? ?

- Is this about me
trying to convince

Giselle not to do the surgery?

Because if it is,
I'm afraid we might not

be on the same page
in regards to priorities.

- What makes you think that?

- I get that you're
a miracle worker,

but my objective is to make
sure that Giselle survives.

So if that means clamping
the cord before she bleeds out,

even if you haven't finished
securing the baby's airway yet,

then so be it.

I will not let her die
on that table, understood?

- Understood.

But just so you know,
I've done 28 exits,

and I've never lost a patient.

I have no intention of
breaking that streak.

? ?

.

[vitals monitors beeping]

- OK.

Pulling baby partially out.

All right,
start the clock, Asha,

and push some nitro to keep
that uterus nice and soft.

- The teratoma extends more
laterally than I expected.

I'll need to partially
dissect the tumor

before I can intubate.

- How long is that
going to take?

- Eight or nine minutes.

- OK, I want BP and HR
updates every 20 seconds.

- Roger that.

- Here.
- Oh.

- Waiting's the worst part.

- I shouldn't be worried,
right?

- No.
No, no.

Your-
your sister's got this.

She's a rock star.

- [chuckles]
Yeah.

She's good at that,
helping people.

Not so good at love,
though, right?

- [chuckles]

No comment.

- Look, Caity'd
probably kill me

if she heard me
telling you this,

but, um, I wouldn't give up
on her just yet.

- [clears throat]

It feels sometimes like
that's what she wants.

- No.

She cares about you.
I can tell.

But expressing human emotion
just isn't really her thing.

She's basically part robot.
- [chuckles]

- I feel like it's more of
a survival mechanism

for her than anything.

She was basically forced to
raise me when our parents died.

Someone had to
keep it together.

Look, I'm the closest person
in her life,

and even she keeps me
at an arm's length.

I think that maybe she's still
trying to adjust to the fact

that a noose is no longer
hanging around her neck.

- Noose?

- Yeah,
our mom's prion disease.

We made a pact
to never get tested,

but after my health scare,
you know.

- Wait, your mom died
of prion disease?

- Yeah, 15 years ago.
GSS.

I can't believe
she never told you that.

[somber music]

Oh, wait, yes I can.

Uh, anyway, don't worry.

She tested negative.
We both did.

[sighs]

I cannot tell you
how much of a huge relief

it was when she told me
that she didn't have it.

? ?

How'd it go?

Is Troy going to be
permanently paralyzed or?

- No, no, Troy will make
a full recovery.

- Oh, my God.

I have the best sister ever.
- Oh, you do.

You do.
OK, put me down. Whoa.

- Well, guess I'll tell
my boss the good news.

- OK.

? ?

- Hand me a tonsil.

We're on pace.
Making progress.

- Time, Asha?

- Six minutes, 23 seconds

since we performed
the C-section.

[vitals machine dings]

- HR just went up a tick.
It's 114 now.

She could be
bleeding somewhere.

- I don't know.
BP is still stable.

- Her placenta is
about to detach.

We're cutting the cord now.

- Hang on just two minutes.
I can't establish an airway.

- She doesn't have that.
We're cutting now. Scissors.

[tense music]

- She's out.

Let's keep her head elevated
and move her-

- Let's get methergine and
oxytocin to stop the bleeding.

- I wasn't finished yet.

I don't know if
I can establish an airway.

- 0-vicryl suture.

? ?

I couldn't risk losing Mom.
I didn't have a choice.

? ?

- Airway cleared.
Let's intubate.

? ?

- She's going to be OK,
everybody.

Good work.
Good work.

? ?

- Jonathan.

Honey, where were you?

Your producer's been calling.

She said that you
just up and walked

in the middle of lunch,

that you're backing out
of the reboot?

- Yeah.
That's true.

- What are you doing?

You're just going to desert
your old friends, Ian, Ainsley?

- Listen, I will find another
way to pay for the treatment,

I swear.
Don't worry about it.

- How?

- Honey, will you go
get me another blanket?

Maybe give Jonathan and I
a moment alone?

- All right...
[clears throat]

Listen to me.

I know that your mother
can be a lot.

But what happened?

Were they not willing to work
around your schedule?

'Cause we can talk to
business affairs again.

- No, Dad,
it wasn't anything like that.

- Well, then what?

Is it your new girlfriend?

- Why would it have anything
to do with Naomi?

- You're working
with Ainsley again.

Women don't like it when
their new boy start

spending a lot of time
with an ex.

[soft dramatic music]

- You knew about that?

- Of course I did.
I'm your dad.

? ?

- I was 16 years old.

It never occurred
to you that maybe

you should be protecting me?

- Protecting you?

You were a TV star having sex
with a beautiful woman.

What was I supposed
to protect you from?

Yourself?

- I was a kid.

- We gave you
a pretty damn good life.

- No.

No, I gave you one.

I gave you both one.
Do you understand that?

Whose job was it, Dad?
Hm?

Whose job was it to make sure
that we had the rent, the food,

that you had
the nicest clothes

and were driving
the nicest car, huh?

I was a kid
forced to be a parent

to two blood-sucking vampires
that only ever cared

about what I could do
for them, right?

- Poor Jonathan,
always the victim.

- Oh, my God, you really
haven't changed at all,

have you?

- The hell is that
supposed to mean?

- It means it's not my job
to take care of you!

Do you understand that?

It should have never
been my job.

? ?

It was your job to protect me

from an adult that was
taking advantage of me.

- What are you talking about?

? ?

Who was taking
advantage of you?

? ?

.

- [sighs]

- Dan.

- How long have you
been sitting there for?

- Oh, just now.

- I'm going to leave you
in peace, OK?

- Actually, um,
I'd prefer the company.

Working a double shift tonight.

Otherwise, I'd probably
be in a meeting.

- Oh, man.

Tough day, huh?
- Yeah.

- What's going on?

- I almost cost a couple
their newborn.

Couldn't get control
of my fear.

I was just gripping so tight,

trying not to let this woman
die on the table.

I don't know if I've
ever told you this,

but my mom died having me.

And it's just crazy, the power
that it still has over me.

- Oh, that's not crazy.

That's not crazy at all.

- You know, from everything
that I've been told,

she's just this true miracle
of a person, you know?

- Yeah.

- And I keep thinking about
this one memory,

where I lost my tooth,
and I went into my dad's room

to show him 'cause,
you know, I was just so proud.

- [chuckles]

- And there he was, just...

sitting on the corner
of his bed,

holding a framed photo
of my mom, sobbing.

And that sound is like nothing
that I've heard since.

He was just-
he was broken.

And I've never been able
to fill the hole

that I left in him.

- Patching that hole,

are you sure that
that's your job?

- It doesn't matter
if it's my job 'cause

he still blames me.
- I-

- I feel it.

- I never met your dad.

I just have a really hard time
believing that.

- He loves me as much
as he can.

- I think you've got
to go have a chat.

- Yeah.

- Oh, I see that you and
Dr. Howard got my gifts.

- We did.

And while we both agree that
these are a lovely gesture,

we just can't accept them.

- Well, it's not because
of the ethics, is it?

Because I did have my guy
check with the AMA,

and apparently if it's
a gift given from beneficence

or appreciation, it's fine.

- No, no, it's more than that.

These are very expensive,
Miranda.

- That's the point.

- But they're not necessary,

and it just
wouldn't feel right.

But thank you.
Thank you.

I mean, truly.

I hope you understand.

- How am I supposed to show
my gratitude, then?

- By simply saying thank you.

- That does not come
easy to me.

- So you'd rather spend $50k
to avoid it?

- I don't like to feel
indebted to anyone.

- Well, you're not indebted
to me, Miranda, or Dr. Howard.

Not at all.
- You saved my life.

- Well, that's because that's
what we're trained to do.

What, you were afraid
I'd hold this over your head?

- I know it's cynical, but
I've seen it a million times.

I was going to fire you
that day.

- I know that.

But I would never leverage
your life for personal gain.

That's just not who I am.

- Thank you, Sharon.

Genuinely.

- You're welcome.

- What's so important
that you had me

drive out here at this hour?

I thought you were in labor.

- I-
I need to clear the air

about something
that's been bothering me

for most of my life.

- OK.

- I know that you blame me
for Mom's death.

- Look, I know your hormones
are exploding at this point.

- Dad, that's not-
that's not what this is about.

And I need to talk about this
before my baby's born.

- What you need is rest,
Hannah.

So I'm going to leave...
- No.

- Because I parked
in the red zone.

- No, no, I want to talk
about this now.

OK, there has always been
a space between us,

and I have felt it for
as long as I can remember.

And I know that
you feel it, too,

so please don't deny it.
Please.

- Look, I know I have not been
the best father to you,

but there's no space.

- OK.

Well, then, why are you
always like this?

- Like what?
- Hesitant. Withdrawn.

You'd rather run away
than look me in the eye.

Look, I have been trying to get
your attention my whole life,

and I think
it's because of Mom.

- It's hard to look at you,
but not because I blame you.

How could I?

You were just a little tiny
baby coming into the world.

- OK.

Then why?

- Because you remind me
so much of her.

Same kind eyes,
same patient smile,

same little tilt of the head
when you ask a question.

[somber music]

You play with your hair
when you're lost in thought.

? ?

- I didn't know
that I did that.

- Of course you do.

She's a part of you,
more so than Lizzy and Matt.

? ?

I loved your mother
so very much

that sometimes looking at you
just makes me miss her.

That's all.

I swear to you, Hannah,
I have never, ever

blamed you for what happened
to your mother.

Not once, Hannah.

Never.

And I'm so sorry if
I have ever made you feel

less loved or less important.

? ?

But you're your own person,
Hannah.

You're so much more fierce
than your mother was,

and tougher too.

God, she would be
so damn proud of you.

[tender music]

? ?

- Well, thank you
for telling me this.

? ?

I've always wanted
to be like her.

? ?

And this makes me feel
closer to her somehow.

- I wish she was here
to tell you all this.

She was so excited to meet you.

We both were.

? ?

[knocking]
- Come in.

- What's with all
the cryptic texts?

We've got to work on
your emoji game, my friend.

- Your evaluation results
came back.

- And?

- Well, everything is fine,
except your fMRI scans

were flagged.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- By, uh-
by who?

Let me guess, Theo Rabari.

- I suppose.
It doesn't say.

- That's the most ridiculous
thing I ever heard.

You know, Sharon, he's actually
been making these weird moves

while I was away.
And I'm starting to think-

call me crazy-
that he actually wants my job.

It's like a joke.

- You know what's
got me worried?

Turnover for psych patients
went up 27%

the first week Dr. Rabari
was running things.

Now, it didn't mean anything
to me at first,

but now I'm a little concerned
that a picture

is forming for the board.

- Sharon, come on.

Of course the turnover number
is going to go up.

Theo doesn't think that,
you know, psychiatrists

and their patients
even need to converse.

Oh, come on,
you don't think he's

actually going to
get away with this.

Look, this is the part
where you're supposed to say,

don't worry, Danny,
everything's going to be OK.

- I wish I could, Daniel,
but I think

we may have a fight
on our hands.

[knocking]

- Hey.
- Hi.

- I was surprised you texted.

- Well, maybe I misread
the instructions

on the Orville Redenbacher,

and I didn't want it
to go to waste.

And I heard that you're
really into "Gilmore Girls"?

- I cannot confirm nor deny.

- You're not, like,
Team Jess or something?

[chuckles]

- It was nice meeting
your brother today.

- I'm so sorry about that.

And thank you
for babysitting him.

- Oh, it was good to-

it was good to get
to know him a bit.

He told me about your mom
and her prion disease.

- Really.

Huh.
What else did he tell you?

- Oh, just that you-

you both got screened, and you
told him you tested negative.

- Yeah.
- You know, I-

I've been trying to figure out

what could possibly happen
to cause such a huge

change in your behavior.

And for a while, I thought
it was just because

you were so head over heels
for me.

Now I think that was
just my ego talking.

You tested positive,
didn't you?

- No.

No.
Did you get that from Kip?

- No.

I got it from you.

[soft dramatic music]

"My brother's
a little sensitive.

He needs to be protected
sometimes."

You lied to him to protect him
from the truth, didn't you?

? ?

- Get out.

- What?

- Get out.

- Caitlin, we need to-
this is something

we need to talk about.

- Get out!

- OK.

? ?
