(SIGHS) What?

It's time
to wake up.

Mnh-mnh. It's still
dark outside.

I'd like
to have sex.

(SIGHS)

As romantically
as that was put,

it's too early, Shaun.

It's exactly early enough
to have sex

for the average duration
it takes us

and still allow
precisely enough time

to get ready
for work.

(SIGHS)

How long have you
been up figuring that out?

Since 4:53.

But it only took
two minutes.

You've been waiting
since then to propose this?

I let you sleep
as long as possible.

That's... very considerate.

Ohh.

(LOCKER DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)

(CLACK)

Sorry, I'm late.

I'm Dr. Shaun Murphy.

Kayley has
a sore throat.

[ Hoarsely ] More like
this constant feeling

like there's something
stuck in my throat.

And I've fainted
a couple times,

which I first thought
was just random.

And I'm obviously
losing my voice.

Since I've only
just met you,

I have no idea
what your voice
normally sounds like.

Well, not this.

Sometimes when swallowing,
I get a super intense pain,

like, worse than
an ice cream headache.

My internist sent me
to an ear, nose,
and throat guy,

an orthopedic surgeon,
um, three gastroenterologists,

a voice issues
specialist dude.

An otolaryngologist.

...a-a neurosurgeon who thinks
it might be a messed up nerve

connecting the throat
to the brain.

The ninth cranial nerve,
glossopharyngeal neuralgia.

He recommended,
like, brain surgery.

Microvascular decompression.

Which a second neurosurgeon
said I don't need.

You're not happy with
the answers you're getting

from a whole bunch
of recommended specialists,

so you came to the ER?

I ran out of
recommended specialists.

Hmm.

It is an intriguing
combination of symptoms.

We'll admit you
and run some tests.

Uh, Dr. Murphy?

You're...

Interesting.

I have autism.

That's so cool.

Uh, I mean, no...

Sor... Not... Not cool
that you are.

Be more insensitive,
Kayley. Um...

It's cool
that you're this...

Totally chill,
super knowledgeable medico.

Compliments...
are very awkward.

(CAMERA CLICKS)
(CHUCKLES)

Cute doctor
who's gonna cure me.

Severe abdominal discomfort.

Fever, tachy, hypotensive.

(SIGHS)
It's okay, sweetie.

What's your name?

That's Marla.

No one to leave her with.

We're gonna take care
of your mommy.

(GROANING)

Abdomen tender
and distended.

Dehydrated.

(BREATHING RAPIDLY)

Delayed capillary refill.

Rapid respiratory rate.

Skin cool and bluish,
looks cyanotic.

(MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)
She's going into shock.

We need aggressive
fluid resuscitation.

Start broad spectrum
antibiotics,

place an NG to decompress
distended abdomen.

Trend her lactates, initiate
complete sepsis bundle.

(BEEPING CONTINUES)

**

Her CBC,
BMP autoimmune panel,

nasal swab,
and blood cultures.

All normal.

Ohh.
That's exciting.

Negative tests
are exciting?

No one's been able
to find out what she has.

I'm going to get brain FIESTA
and time-of-flight MRI

to assess the cranial nerves
and vessels,

and Doppler ultrasound
to...

I have to
get back to work.

Our pre-dawn romantic
interlude made me late.

Yes. There was a flaw
in my methodology.

My calculation
was based on

the mean duration of our sex
overall, but generally,

we take statistically
significantly longer

in the morning
than at other times of day.

Well, maybe
we can discuss

this whole timing-our-sex
thing at lunchtime.

Mm. No, thank you.

I can't have lunch today.

Too much to do.

(IMPERCEPTIBLE CHATTER)

Sorry I'm late.

I was going to
cancel our lunch.

Let me guess.

A patient
more interesting than me.

Exactly.

(SIGHS) Yeah.

She has
a mysterious condition.

But I realized
I could use our lunch
to help understand it.

I ordered you a salad.
Thank you.

**

How do I get
an ice cream headache?

I've never had one.

You don't want one.
Brain freeze is horrible.

The scientific term

is sphenopalatine
ganglioneuralgia.

The trigeminal nerve
reacts to

rapid temperature change
in the mouth,

sending a signal
to the brain,

which responds with
changes in blood flow
and dura irritation,

which combats what
it perceives as a dangerous,
noxious stimuli,

but is just ice cream.

I need to experience that.

Okay.

The technique
I usually use is,

eat way too much,
way too fast.

**

(INHALES)
I'm quitting my job.

The job you came back
from Hershey for?

Don't tell Glassy.
He already thinks I'm a flake.

You kicking me out
is just what I needed.

Mm-hmm.

I was in a complete rut.

In my personal life,
at work, super stale.

I mean, we weren't
developing anything,

just market
testing designs...

Ow.

Ow! Ow, ow!

That's awful!

What's the cure?
Time.

How much time?
Depends.

Do you think
I should include my job
in Hershey on my resume?

It hurts so much!

Or does it make me
look like

I'm unable
to commit to anything?

Ow!

Okay.

The ultrasound showed
your colon is distended.

We placed a rectal tube
and an NG

to try to get that
decompressed.

Mommy,
can we go home?

Not yet, sweetie.

It would be helpful
to try to find out

what could've triggered this.

Any history of Crohn's
or ulcerative colitis?

No.

I, um...

I have had
some UTIs lately.

That's likely
not connected.

Okay.
PARK: Diverticulitis?

Any recent
international travel?

I have a three-year-old
and no husband.

MELENDEZ: Okay.

We're gonna need
to keep you on IV antibiotics

and monitor
the distention.

In the meantime,
is there anyone
who can look after Marla?

No one.

My whole family's back east.
It's... It's just us.

I'll get a social worker
to look after her.

Thank you.

Go ahead, honey.

**

**

Why is my mom upset?

**

(SIGHS)

If her anterior inferior
cerebellar artery

is encroaching
on her glossopharyngeal nerve,

it's very minor.

Certainly not enough
to justify

microvascular
decompression surgery.

I agree.

It could also be acid
reflux temporal arteritis,

laryngopharyngeal dysesthesia.
We need to...

We need to do
$50,000 of tests,

and it might be
acid reflux?

Or temporal arteritis or...

It's a constellation

of relatively insignificant
symptoms.

Have you ever had
an ice cream headache,
Dr. Andrews?

Yes.

I believe it didn't require
brain surgery, Dr. Murphy.

As a compromise,
we could do an MRI

and CT her neck
and a swallow...

Shaun.

You don't compromise
with your boss.

Start her on dilantin for
her pain and send her home.

**

**

Can I just leave her
with you?

I'm a receptionist,
not a social worker.

And I'm a surgeon.

I didn't mean
I'm more important.

I just meant we both have
more important things to do.

When will the social worker
be here?

She said half an hour.

Can you page her again?

I want my mama.

Why don't you just go play
with the toys, okay?

Do you have her number?
I'll call her myself.

I made Mommy sick.

No, sweetie.
It's not your fault.

Sometimes
people just get sick.

Mommy drawk ma poop.

Your mommy
drew your poop?
No!

Drawk. Mommy drawk.

Drank?

Yes.

Mommy drawnk my poop.

**

The good news is,
we've ruled out
glossopharyngeal neuralgia.

You don't need
brain surgery.

Never any good news
without bad news.

We've got a list of
a few things you don't have,

but we don't know
what you do have.

So you'll run more tests.

We can't.

There are 21 different things
this might be,

but they don't want us
to run 37 more tests.

Well, this is lame.

I can afford the tests.
I make good money.

(VOICE SQUEAKING) I can't
keep talking like this!

I need a...

(MONITOR ALARM)

She's hypotensive.

Code stroke.

We need stat brain CT

(INHALES SHARPLY)

(ALARM STOPS)

**

Wow. (GASPS)

(CHUCKLES LIGHTLY)

I-I didn't drink it.
I just...

I just used her stool
to do a home fecal transfer.

And you didn't think
to mention that?

You said my UTIs
were unrelated.

They didn't get better
with antibiotics,

so I did exactly
what I was supposed to do.

The video swore that
it was completely safe.

Make sure your friend
is completely healthy.

I've had the best results
with vegans,

though if it were between

an 18-year-old carnivore
and a 60-year-old vegan...

Well, don't make me choose.

We're gonna add
the saline solution.

Should be a one-to-one match,
more or less.

Then, we're gonna puree...

(BLENDER WHIRRS)

...puree, and then
puree some more.

While it's mixing...

Let's talk enema bags.

(INHALES DEEPLY)

Marla must have seen her
using the blender,

assumed she drank it.

Yeah, that's
the mystery here,

not how anyone
this stupid is still alive.

It's not
completely irrational.

The E. coli strain
in drug-resistant UTIs

can hide out
in the gut.

Repopulating the
colon microbiome using FMT

has shown some success.

In a hospital,
under controlled
and sterile conditions.

Prep her for surgery.

Between the dilation
and rigidity,

there may be
colon perforation.

And test Marla's stool
for toxins
and infectious bacteria.

She was suffering
a mini-stroke,
and I saved her.

I saved her.
I need to celebrate.
Outside?

I want to celebrate
by kissing you.

A lot.

I-Inside would be
inappropriate.

(CHUCKLES)

Eagle Syndrome
is very rare.

A longer-than-normal
styloid bone

coming off the base
of the skull.

And...
I only get
a five-minute break.

It impinged
on her nerves,

causing the
confusing symptoms

that baffled
eight expert doctors.

And then when she
turned her head suddenly,

it pinched her carotid,
causing her TIA.
(LAUGHS)

Yeah, it's him!
(GASPS)

It's Dr. Murphy!

(EXCITED LAUGHTER)

How do I know you?

He is cute!
(CAMERAS CLICKING)

Is that his girlfriend?

Kayley's hotter.

(CLICKING CONTINUES)

WOMAN: He's so cute!

(CLICKING CONTINUES)

(LAUGHS)

(NORMAL VOICE)
My personal... Chernobyl.

(LAUGHS) What?

Seriously, guys.

Ohh, come on.

A zone of exclusion
should be imposed
around my kitchen.

(LAUGHS)
(CLICK)

Millions of people
have watched that?

(HOARSELY)
As of 9:00 a.m.

You're an influencer.

And you posted
how I saved you?

But I take it
I'm not saved yet?
You still have to operate?

A normal
styloid process

is 2.5 centimeters
in length. Yours measures...

Don't do that.

There are two
surgical options.

Transoral, where we go in
through your mouth.

It's non-invasive, but
creates surgical challenges

for physical
and visual access.

The alternative
transcervical procedure

involves an incision
in your neck

with none of those
access issues,

but with some
post-operative scarring.

So one way is safer,
but the other way,
I'll look better?

It's a pretty
bad-ass scar.

(CHUCKLES)

Can I take a bit
to decide which?

Of course.

You had no right
to tell the world about me.

It was flattering.

Not everyone
wants to be famous.

Uh... If it's
any consolation,

you've had over
70 marriage proposals.

It's not.

**

Some of us
are more comfortable
in the spotlight than others.

I think you're great.

Thanks.

MARLA:
I don't have to poop.

Be patient.

I don't have to poop!

Is there something
your mom does

to help you
when you can't go?

MARLA: Sometimes
she hold my hand.

Would you like me to?

MARLA:
You're not my mom.

Well, just keep trying.

MARLA: Pbbbbbbht.

(SIGHS)

Sweetie, we really
need you to go.

If you can't,
there is another way
we can do this.

MARLA: How?

CLAIRE: Well, it's not fun.

For either of us.

(INHALES SHARPLY)

(SIGHS)

MELENDEZ: Isolate and divide
middle colic artery and vein.

It's an epidemic.

People taking
online medical advice.

CLAIRE: It's not the problem.
It's the symptom.

Medical care is a financial
stress for lots of people,

not to mention
physician arrogance,

incompetence, impatience.

So it's our fault?

Resect and cut the colon
proximal and distal

to the perforation
with GIA stapler.

A friend of a friend
self-diagnosed

her own
Cushing's disease online

after a series of doctors
barely listened to her,

told her
to get more rest.

I'm guessing
she didn't then perform

do-it-yourself
brain surgery at home.

(GROANS)

Claire's right.

I was...
supporting your point.

She convinced me
I was wrong.

Divide mesentery
with LigaSure.

(MONITOR ALARM)

WOMAN: We have a bleed.

It's major.

Tension during mobilization

We need to do

Take the vascular pedicle

(ALARM STOPS)

Dr. Melendez?

Can this wait?

I'm not sure.

The fecal sample
that your team sent me...

(SIGHS) It might be normal,
but was it mislabeled?

It seems to be
from a 70-year-old.

It's from a three-year-old.

SCFAs, elevated isobutyric
and isovaleric acid.

She is at high risk
for serious cardiac problems.

**

(BRAKES SQUEAL)

Oh, are you okay?

Her social media posts
about Shaun have gone viral.

I've got reporters
clamoring to speak

to the "twice-exceptional"
Dr. Murphy.

Bad idea.
Luckily, he won't do it.

He went off on Kayley
about his privacy.

The publicity would be good
for the hospital.

And I'm sure Dr. Glassman
can make him see
the wisdom of that.

MELENDEZ:
I'm with Andrews.

It smacks of us
patting ourselves on the back.

It could also come off
as exploitative.

But the bigger issue is,
it could blow up in our face.

Shaun is a complete
communications wild card.

Who knows what he'll say
about you, about me,

about being demoted,
about screw-ups.

Well, we would
have to coach him.

Do we have six years
before they need
to go to press?

I can go with him,
manage the situation.

GLASSMAN: No, no, no.

If we consider Shaun
an asset,

we shouldn't treat him
like a liability.

I'll talk to him,
see what he says.

You can see the proximity
of her elongated styloid

to the nerves and carotid.

The trick is to break off
the excess length

without injury to local
neurovascular structures.

If done transcervically,
entry point is key.

Minimizes risk of a marginal
mandibular nerve injury.

Has she made a decision?

SHAUN: Not yet.

I'd like to lead.

Being that it's such
a rare surgery,

I may not get
another chance at it
during residency.

When I have the benefit
of supervision.

And it wouldn't have
anything to do with hoping

Kayley might then post
glowingly about you?

Not at all.

Well, undoubtedly,
a little.

Given the attention
this case has drawn,

I think we should
put our best, most
experienced choice forward.

Well, this is
a teaching hospital.

It's exactly
the type of surgery
we'd give to a third-year.

The fact that she has
an online presence

shouldn't be a factor.

And yet here you are,
the Chief of Surgery

working a case you say
a third-year can handle.

It also might reflect
well on this place

to have a young woman
be the face
of Kayley's surgery.

Assuming it goes well.

Live by the Internet,
die by the Internet.

You still want to lead?

Yes.

It's yours.

MELENDEZ: Ann?

Am I okay?

You're fine.

We had to wake you up

because we need
to discuss something
with you.

Do you understand?

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

Your gut biome showed markers
for elevated cholesterol.

Which you don't have.

Your daughter does.

Marla has
high cholesterol?

She has
a genetic condition:
hyperlipidemia.

Coronary testing
showed 90% narrowing

of the left main artery
to her heart.

(GROANS)

I'm afraid your daughter
needs urgent heart surgery.

I don't want to.

Okay.

I'll tell
the reporters that.

But can... can we
talk about why?

(COMPUTER BEEPS)
Your computer
just beeped.

I know.

I can think of a few reasons
why you might be reticent.

You're shy.
No, I'm not.

Well, you do have trouble
with social interactions,

and you have
trouble anticipating

what people might ask
and how you might respond.

Yes, that is a problem when
I'm meeting with a patient

or I'm at a job interview
or I'm on a date.

Then my answers matter.

But if I'm talking
to a reporter,
they don't matter.

(COMPUTER BEEPS)
It beeped again.

Yes, I know.
We're digitizing.

Every time a patient
needs to take a drug,

we send them
a reminder.

For some unknown reason,
they keep sending me one, too.

I think stories
do matter.

I think what you do
and what you have done

might be inspirational
for people to hear.

Okay.

Okay, you'll do it?

Okay, you've convinced me
I should be nervous about it.

Now I have two reasons
not to do it.

What's the other reason?

I'm very busy
between doing my job
and having sex.

I don't have
a lot of free time.

(COMPUTER BEEPS)

You should hire Lea.

No.
SHAUN: Yes.

She's very good at tech

and isn't happy
in her job right now.

**

I'll tell you what, Shaun.

You think about this,
you really think about this,

how your story
can benefit people,

and I will...

Interview Lea.

Excellent.

I'll think about it.

I'll really think
about it.

Okay.

(DOOR CLOSES)
(KEYBOARD CLANKING)

Some people definitely thought
I would look amazeballs

but after a while,

you just start being
"the sick girl."

You give up your privacy.
Doesn't that bother you?

I have nothing to hide.

No one should.

We should all just be

We are...

The decisions we make.

And you let other people
make them for you.

So you're not
being anyone.

They're gonna make

I don't really need anyone.

Did he ask you

Yeah... It's okay.

I didn't really want
to work for you anyway.

You're a bit of a grouch.

But make sure

shores up your firewall.

A kindergartner

Thank you.
I'm sure we'll be fine.

You're just sneaking

Arranging for her

where she'll just loom

She won't be looming

She'll be

Hey.

What are you doing?

Eh, fresh air.

Shaun lied to me
about having lunch with Lea.

No, he didn't.

Shaun is incapable

He must have
genuinely thought
that you wouldn't mind.

Well, then, he is completely
tone deaf and insensitive,

which are not better qualities
in a boyfriend.

True.

But not exactly
unanticipated

when you get into

And it's never
really about the lie.

It's what's underneath.

You're jealous of Lea.

I am not jealous.

I am concerned...

You don't need to justify.
I'm on team jealousy.

It's flattering,

It means you're committed

It's ugly and reflects

Admit you're jealous,
give in to it,

and then get over it.

(SIGHS)

(DOOR OPENS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

MORGAN:
Finding the styloid

via digital palpitation
of the tonsillar fossa.

There.

Making incision vertically
along the mucosa of mandible.

Next?

I will free the styloid
process from its muscle

and ligament attachments.

Done.

Dissecting away from
the internal carotid medially,

and external, laterally.

Now fracture and excise
the styloid.

(HIGH-PITCHED WHIRRING)

(MONITOR ALARM)

SHAUN: Bradycardia.
Hypotensive.

Loss of EEG waveform.
Cerebral ischemia.

You may have injured
the carotid.

Or compressed it
by fracturing the styloid.

See if the fragment
is impinging on the vessel.

Dr. Murphy,
extend her head.

(ALARM CONTINUES)

**

Yes. Found it.
Easing it away.

(ALARM STOPS)

Carotid decompressed.

(CLANK)

EEG back to baseline normal.

**

Resuming styloid extraction.

**

Kayley's in ICU,
stable.

CT shows no signs
of any permanent damage.

No reason to anticipate
any future problems.

So, the question is,
what do we tell her?

That the surgery
was a success.

She had a cerebral ischemia.
On the table.

That did no damage
and that there's
no evidence of.

Hospital policy
is transparency...

We don't tell them
what music we played,

what we talked about.

This isn't relevant
to the outcome
or to her prognosis.

Would you be taking
the same position

if Kayley wasn't someone
whose criticism
could go viral?

ANDREWS: I don't know.

But it would be delusional
to think it's not relevant.

Dr. Reznick.

Any thoughts?

I don't think I can
fairly offer an opinion,

because my career
could hang in the balance.

Yeah, well, none of us
are disinterested parties,

given the hospital's
reputation
is also at stake.

Did you screw up?

Could that crisis
have been avoided?

**

If it could have been,
then we are all responsible.

We were watching
everything she was doing,

and none of us
told her to stop.

This is an easy call.

There's only one reason
to tell her everything,

and that's you might
feel guilty if you don't.

On the other hand, there's
the future of this hospital.

**

Okay.

**

Shaun, if the patient asks
for details about the surgery,

can you limit
your answers?

**

I...don't know.

Okay, we need to know if--

No.

Dr. Murphy, I hope
you will limit your answers.

But I won't order you
to defy your conscience.

**

We don't normally have
patients share rooms,
but...

She's...?
Gonna be completely fine.

And once she's recuperated,
we'll begin her on statins
and Ezetimibe,

and she'll undergo
lipid apheresis.

It's kind of like
dialysis,

but it'll allow us
to extract LDL
out of her blood.

Should get her cholesterol
to within normal range.

She'll need those drugs
and that other stuff

for the rest of her life?

Yes. But hopefully
a very long one.

(EXHALES SHARPLY)

(SNIFFLES)
Thank you so much.

Thank God
I did what I did.

(CHUCKLES)

(CHUCKLES)

KAYLEY: (NORMAL VOICE)
Everything went great?

(SIGHS) The repair was
successful. You should
have no...

KAYLEY: Everything went great.
Say it. Say it to your fans.

Everything went great.
(KAYLEY GIGGLES)

KAYLEY: You rocked it.

(CHUCKLES) You'll be with us
another few days,
and then you...

KAYLEY: She rocked it, right?

She was lead surgeon
in a successful...

KAYLEY: And how gorgeous
is that hair?

Dr. Morgan Reznick,
take a bow!

(KAYLEY LAUGHS)

KAYLEY: She was wrist-deep
all up in my mouth, y'all.

She is a damn hero!

(KAYLEY LAUGHS)

You've got work to do.

We're proud of you.

Any reason
you screwed up?

I didn't. It could've
happened to anyone.

Not anyone suffers
from arthritic pain.

That didn't affect
anything.

You sure about that?

'Cause I'm not.

CARLY: Did you speak to Lea?

Yes.

I know
she's a good friend.

And it would be unfair

for me to expect you
to cut her out of your life.

But...

You going to ask her opinion
right after I had given mine,

it just called up Wyoming
all over again.

That you preferred Lea
to me.

**

I was jealous.

And it's something
that I have to work out.

**

For the two of us
to work out.

Together.

**

**

What was Lea's advice?

**

That it'd be selfish not to
share my story with the world.

**

I liked your advice better.

**

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

MELENDEZ: Hey.

Uh-oh.

Actually, yeah.

There's something awkward
we need to talk about.

You and Claire.

You can reopen the door.

There's nothing
remotely improper going on.

I received an anonymous
favoritism complaint.

We need to deal with it.

I don't want
to talk to reporters.

I know.

So if I talked
to reporters,

it wouldn't be honest
to who I really am.

Well, sometimes, Shaun,

people present a different
version of themselves

depending upon
the circumstances.

Like, I'm not always
the same here as I am at home.

I don't.

No, you don't.

I considered
all the arguments.

**

I want to be known
as a good doctor.

Not a good autistic doctor.
