1
00:00:01,042 --> 00:00:02,669
[Devon] Previously on The Resident…

2
00:00:02,752 --> 00:00:05,380
So that means we're going
to have to talk about hospice.

3
00:00:05,463 --> 00:00:06,840
Don't. Not yet.

4
00:00:06,923 --> 00:00:08,466
Oh, you can have hospice for months.

5
00:00:08,550 --> 00:00:10,677
It's a great service that most people

6
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:12,262
wait too long to use.

7
00:00:12,345 --> 00:00:14,472
I wouldn't mind a kid a lot like you.

8
00:00:14,556 --> 00:00:16,808
You want me to be your sperm donor?

9
00:00:16,891 --> 00:00:18,309
Thank you, Emily.

10
00:00:18,393 --> 00:00:20,437
We'll pass this up
to the complaint division

11
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:23,064
and discuss the status
of the investigation.

12
00:00:27,444 --> 00:00:28,486
[Conrad] How is she?

13
00:00:28,570 --> 00:00:30,405
Well, I'll let her tell you herself.

14
00:00:31,322 --> 00:00:32,449
Hey, Carol.

15
00:00:32,532 --> 00:00:33,700
Conrad.

16
00:00:33,783 --> 00:00:36,786
Come and meet my hospice nurse.
This is Janaya.

17
00:00:36,870 --> 00:00:38,955
Hello, Dr. Hawkins. We met years ago,

18
00:00:39,039 --> 00:00:41,332
when my father was
a patient before he passed.

19
00:00:41,416 --> 00:00:42,459
Darius Purcell.

20
00:00:42,542 --> 00:00:44,919
Yeah, I remember him.
You were in nursing school then.

21
00:00:45,003 --> 00:00:47,213
[Carol] Now she takes care
of dying folk like me.

22
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:48,131
[all laugh softly]

23
00:00:48,214 --> 00:00:49,048
Mom.

24
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:52,927
AJ gets prickly when I use the "D" word.

25
00:00:53,887 --> 00:00:54,888
[Janaya] Dr. Austin,

26
00:00:54,971 --> 00:00:56,890
I need you to help me
review some med dosages

27
00:00:56,973 --> 00:00:59,100
and update Carol's charts before I go.

28
00:01:00,810 --> 00:01:02,145
Hey, I'll be right back, Mom.

29
00:01:02,228 --> 00:01:03,354
[Carol] Mm.

30
00:01:08,234 --> 00:01:09,611
Anything I can do for you?

31
00:01:10,570 --> 00:01:12,489
Oh, I have everything I need.

32
00:01:13,073 --> 00:01:14,866
It's AJ I'm worried about.

33
00:01:14,949 --> 00:01:16,451
[soft music playing]

34
00:01:18,912 --> 00:01:21,664
He wanted me in hospice,
but now he can't seem

35
00:01:21,748 --> 00:01:24,125
to face what we both know is ahead.

36
00:01:25,084 --> 00:01:28,421
This is very hard for him, Conrad.

37
00:01:28,505 --> 00:01:31,049
Well, of course it is.
He loves you. [chuckles]

38
00:01:31,132 --> 00:01:33,760
And he has been in the business
of saving people for a long time.

39
00:01:34,844 --> 00:01:36,638
I'm a realist.

40
00:01:36,721 --> 00:01:38,598
I have one clear goal.

41
00:01:39,474 --> 00:01:42,894
I want all the time I have left
to spend with him.

42
00:01:42,977 --> 00:01:45,438
And no pain. That's all.

43
00:01:46,356 --> 00:01:50,068
But he can't seem to stop trying to fix

44
00:01:50,151 --> 00:01:52,112
what can't be fixed.

45
00:01:53,530 --> 00:01:54,739
I'll talk to him.

46
00:01:56,616 --> 00:01:57,992
[Gabbi] Good news, Dr. Devi.

47
00:01:58,076 --> 00:02:00,495
Your body's responding well
to the hormones.

48
00:02:00,578 --> 00:02:02,038
Your follicles are maturing well.

49
00:02:02,122 --> 00:02:04,374
We should be able to retrieve
the eggs within the week.

50
00:02:04,457 --> 00:02:06,209
I can't believe this is all happening!

51
00:02:06,292 --> 00:02:08,503
We hope. But a first-time course of IVF

52
00:02:08,586 --> 00:02:10,338
only has a 33% success rate.

53
00:02:10,421 --> 00:02:11,714
[Gabbi] Dr. Devi is correct.

54
00:02:11,798 --> 00:02:14,008
It's important to manage
your expectations, Padma.

55
00:02:14,092 --> 00:02:16,094
The path to motherhood
is not always an easy one.

56
00:02:16,177 --> 00:02:17,679
I know, I know. I just…

57
00:02:17,762 --> 00:02:19,430
Oh, I want this baby so badly.

58
00:02:19,514 --> 00:02:20,932
It's all I want for you, too.

59
00:02:21,015 --> 00:02:23,434
Once we have the eggs from Dr. Devi,
we fertilize them,

60
00:02:23,518 --> 00:02:26,062
and choose the viable embryo
to be implanted into you.

61
00:02:26,146 --> 00:02:28,106
One last question.
Will your donor sperm arrive

62
00:02:28,189 --> 00:02:29,232
in a test tube or…

63
00:02:29,315 --> 00:02:30,984
Oh, no, my donor's here, in the hospital.

64
00:02:31,067 --> 00:02:33,153
-He's a, he's a doctor.
-[Dr…] Great.

65
00:02:33,236 --> 00:02:35,488
And he's available to come in
during the egg retrieval

66
00:02:35,572 --> 00:02:37,532
so we can create embryos
as quickly as possible?

67
00:02:37,615 --> 00:02:39,784
I hope. He has a personal situation

68
00:02:39,868 --> 00:02:41,828
which makes it a bit complicated.

69
00:02:41,911 --> 00:02:44,622
Yeah, if he's, um, unavailable
due to a family emergency,

70
00:02:44,706 --> 00:02:46,708
can we…[breathes] can we wait?

71
00:02:46,791 --> 00:02:48,543
I'm afraid not. In that instance,

72
00:02:48,626 --> 00:02:50,253
we would have to freeze the eggs.

73
00:02:57,010 --> 00:02:58,511
[Leela] What's wrong?

74
00:02:58,595 --> 00:03:01,431
I haven't been able to reach
AJ yet to finalize details.

75
00:03:01,514 --> 00:03:02,640
What details?

76
00:03:02,724 --> 00:03:03,975
Just little things.

77
00:03:06,936 --> 00:03:08,062
You're blinking.

78
00:03:08,688 --> 00:03:09,898
Too many blinks.

79
00:03:09,981 --> 00:03:12,358
Come on, that's your tell. Talk.

80
00:03:12,442 --> 00:03:14,861
AJ hasn't fully committed
to be the sperm donor yet.

81
00:03:16,237 --> 00:03:17,906
We just lied to Dr. Johnson?

82
00:03:17,989 --> 00:03:20,325
Okay, calm down.
She's a doctor, not a pujari.

83
00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,912
Have a little faith.
The universe…[exhales]

84
00:03:23,995 --> 00:03:25,955
-…has a way of working things out.
-No!

85
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:27,165
You need to work this out.

86
00:03:27,248 --> 00:03:28,958
The universe is not paying attention.

87
00:03:29,584 --> 00:03:31,377
Talk to Dr. Austin today.

88
00:03:32,295 --> 00:03:34,672
Okay? If he's not all in,
you need to know.

89
00:03:35,256 --> 00:03:36,507
You're so bossy.

90
00:03:38,343 --> 00:03:39,344
Okay.

91
00:03:40,303 --> 00:03:41,471
Okay.

92
00:03:48,061 --> 00:03:49,437
Hey.

93
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:52,273
My mother is taking
escalating doses of morphine,

94
00:03:52,357 --> 00:03:54,150
and we don't even know
her kidney function.

95
00:03:54,234 --> 00:03:56,277
You think maybe I should
switch to hydromorphone?

96
00:03:56,361 --> 00:03:57,820
Uh, that depends.

97
00:03:58,696 --> 00:04:00,865
Are you worried about
long-term complications

98
00:04:01,658 --> 00:04:04,369
or focused on keeping her
comfortable for now?

99
00:04:04,452 --> 00:04:06,746
I, I don't think there's
any harm in running labs

100
00:04:06,829 --> 00:04:08,248
to check her kidney function.

101
00:04:08,331 --> 00:04:10,416
Well, there's no harm, but I think the key

102
00:04:10,500 --> 00:04:12,835
is to ask yourself, is there any benefit?

103
00:04:12,919 --> 00:04:14,963
Will this bring her more comfort or less?

104
00:04:17,548 --> 00:04:19,842
Look, I know there's no fix.

105
00:04:21,427 --> 00:04:23,304
I-I know where this is going,

106
00:04:23,388 --> 00:04:25,765
I just want to spend as much
time with my mother as I can.

107
00:04:25,848 --> 00:04:27,350
There's nothing wrong with that, man.

108
00:04:27,433 --> 00:04:30,353
Of course not, but your mom
is worried about you.

109
00:04:30,436 --> 00:04:31,813
More than anything else.

110
00:04:33,731 --> 00:04:35,441
She's worried about
how you're taking this.

111
00:04:37,777 --> 00:04:39,404
-She told you that?
-[glass shatters]

112
00:04:40,488 --> 00:04:42,323
What was that? Mom!

113
00:04:43,408 --> 00:04:44,492
Oh, she's seizing.

114
00:04:45,201 --> 00:04:46,494
Let's get her on her side.

115
00:04:46,577 --> 00:04:47,870
[AJ and Conrad grunting]

116
00:04:47,954 --> 00:04:49,747
Hospice left you lorazepam, right?

117
00:04:49,831 --> 00:04:51,582
Yeah. It's in the…medicine cabinet.

118
00:04:51,666 --> 00:04:52,667
Okay.

119
00:04:53,918 --> 00:04:55,670
Hey, Mom, you're gonna be all right.

120
00:04:58,506 --> 00:05:01,050
So, tell me what happened
on your camping trip.

121
00:05:01,134 --> 00:05:03,177
I was heading to the river
for a morning dip

122
00:05:03,261 --> 00:05:05,513
when I caught my big toe on a root.

123
00:05:05,596 --> 00:05:07,473
I felt a pop in my ankle and I went down.

124
00:05:07,557 --> 00:05:08,891
And you were barefoot?

125
00:05:08,975 --> 00:05:10,268
[Bryce] Bare everything.

126
00:05:10,351 --> 00:05:12,353
-Oh.
-[Bryce] We're not nudists.

127
00:05:12,437 --> 00:05:15,648
We were earthing. Reconnecting to
Earth's electromagnetic field,

128
00:05:15,732 --> 00:05:16,941
through bare skin.

129
00:05:17,025 --> 00:05:19,819
[chuckles] Sounds silly, but it works.

130
00:05:21,863 --> 00:05:23,281
[device beeps]

131
00:05:23,364 --> 00:05:24,490
101.2.

132
00:05:24,574 --> 00:05:26,159
Patient is spiking a fever.

133
00:05:26,242 --> 00:05:27,744
That can't be from his ankle.

134
00:05:27,827 --> 00:05:29,579
BP is 83/50.

135
00:05:29,662 --> 00:05:32,290
-Um, okay, uh--
-[nurse] And dropping.

136
00:05:32,373 --> 00:05:34,375
-Uh, it's…
-Dr. Pravesh?

137
00:05:36,002 --> 00:05:37,086
What's the problem?

138
00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:38,796
BP is dropping rapidly.

139
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,132
Dr. Pravesh is here to take a closer look.

140
00:05:42,675 --> 00:05:43,885
Do you hear that ringing?

141
00:05:44,719 --> 00:05:46,095
[nurse] He's going down.

142
00:05:46,179 --> 00:05:48,639
One liter of LR, and get that norepi pump
next to his bedside.

143
00:05:48,723 --> 00:05:49,724
Let's go.

144
00:05:50,933 --> 00:05:52,310
[opening theme music playing]

145
00:06:04,697 --> 00:06:07,533
I think it's best
to call the hospice nurse.

146
00:06:07,617 --> 00:06:09,786
Have her come back and take over.

147
00:06:10,411 --> 00:06:12,038
Yeah, but what if it's a brain bleed?

148
00:06:13,122 --> 00:06:15,291
We know the cancer has spread
to her brain,

149
00:06:15,374 --> 00:06:17,293
so then that wouldn't be unexpected.

150
00:06:17,376 --> 00:06:18,836
She could be hyponatremic.

151
00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:21,672
-She hasn't taken enough electrolytes.
-AJ…

152
00:06:21,756 --> 00:06:22,965
No, if there's any chance

153
00:06:23,049 --> 00:06:27,053
I can get her a few extra weeks,
a few extra days,

154
00:06:27,136 --> 00:06:28,638
even a few extra hours…

155
00:06:28,721 --> 00:06:31,265
Any intervention now
could cause harm.

156
00:06:31,349 --> 00:06:32,517
Well, I got to try.

157
00:06:51,452 --> 00:06:53,663
As an investigator
for the state medical board,

158
00:06:53,746 --> 00:06:56,040
my job is to weigh the merits of the case.

159
00:06:56,916 --> 00:06:58,584
And this case is clear.

160
00:06:58,668 --> 00:07:02,088
Emily Benesch was irreparably
injured by Dr. Bosley.

161
00:07:03,756 --> 00:07:07,385
When I reviewed common outcomes
for the surgery in question,

162
00:07:07,468 --> 00:07:09,470
spinal, neurological, high risk,

163
00:07:09,554 --> 00:07:12,223
it appears Miss Benesch's outcome is…

164
00:07:12,306 --> 00:07:13,433
is not at all unusual.

165
00:07:14,392 --> 00:07:16,477
Paralysis is not unusual?

166
00:07:17,687 --> 00:07:19,814
I mean, surely you know
how ludicrous that sounds.

167
00:07:20,731 --> 00:07:21,732
[scoffs]

168
00:07:22,358 --> 00:07:24,152
Did you even speak with Emily?

169
00:07:24,235 --> 00:07:27,029
The goal of my investigation
is to remain impartial

170
00:07:27,113 --> 00:07:28,030
and unbiased.

171
00:07:28,114 --> 00:07:30,575
Right, well, you only took
statements from experts

172
00:07:30,658 --> 00:07:32,243
provided by the defendant.

173
00:07:34,495 --> 00:07:37,707
You've become emotionally
involved in this case, Dr. Bell.

174
00:07:37,790 --> 00:07:39,542
It's blinding you to the reality

175
00:07:39,625 --> 00:07:42,253
that what happened
to this patient, while tragic,

176
00:07:42,336 --> 00:07:44,755
is not the fault of her surgeon.

177
00:07:44,839 --> 00:07:46,215
This case is closed.

178
00:07:47,091 --> 00:07:49,093
[door opens and shuts]

179
00:07:49,719 --> 00:07:52,013
Bryce came in here with
a pulled tendon in his ankle,

180
00:07:52,096 --> 00:07:54,765
and has developed fevers,
hypotension requiring pressors

181
00:07:54,849 --> 00:07:57,101
and increasing agitation.

182
00:07:57,185 --> 00:08:00,354
The broad-spectrum antibiotics haven't
really helped with what's going on.

183
00:08:00,438 --> 00:08:02,648
This muscle spasm happened
in the past hour,

184
00:08:02,732 --> 00:08:05,359
so I checked his electrolytes,
and they're all in normal range.

185
00:08:05,443 --> 00:08:07,028
His-his thyroid is normal, too.

186
00:08:07,111 --> 00:08:09,864
[Conrad] Have you been doing
any intense exercising lately?

187
00:08:09,947 --> 00:08:11,574
I meditate, go for walks.

188
00:08:12,450 --> 00:08:14,243
We've been working through the Kama Sutra.

189
00:08:14,327 --> 00:08:16,662
Sounds like quite a regimen.

190
00:08:17,955 --> 00:08:18,873
[Bryce grunts]

191
00:08:21,626 --> 00:08:22,919
Percussive myoedema.

192
00:08:23,961 --> 00:08:25,796
Touch your chin to your chest for me?

193
00:08:27,882 --> 00:08:29,175
The stiff neck is new.

194
00:08:29,884 --> 00:08:31,928
Bryce, we're gonna run some tests

195
00:08:32,011 --> 00:08:34,514
to check for an infection
in your central nervous system.

196
00:08:34,597 --> 00:08:36,933
And we're gonna start
with a lumbar puncture, okay?

197
00:08:37,808 --> 00:08:39,310
[Conrad] There you go. Breathe

198
00:08:40,478 --> 00:08:41,771
Good, good.

199
00:08:42,939 --> 00:08:43,940
Just breathe.

200
00:08:44,482 --> 00:08:45,566
[inhaling unsteadily]

201
00:08:47,193 --> 00:08:48,152
[Conrad] There you go.

202
00:08:48,653 --> 00:08:49,904
[Devon] I almost got it.

203
00:08:49,987 --> 00:08:50,905
[Conrad] Breathe.

204
00:08:50,988 --> 00:08:52,615
[Bryce breathes shakily]

205
00:08:52,698 --> 00:08:54,617
I brought kale and apple.

206
00:08:54,700 --> 00:08:56,994
Oh, my God. What are you doing to him?

207
00:08:57,078 --> 00:08:58,788
I'm needle-phobic. I can't watch. Here.

208
00:08:58,871 --> 00:09:00,206
No, get that away from…

209
00:09:00,998 --> 00:09:02,333
[Mia exhaling] I feel sick.

210
00:09:03,376 --> 00:09:04,835
He really doesn't like that drink.

211
00:09:04,919 --> 00:09:06,504
It's triggering a physical reaction.

212
00:09:10,007 --> 00:09:11,259
He's afraid of it.

213
00:09:11,342 --> 00:09:12,468
[Devon] Hydrophobia.

214
00:09:16,806 --> 00:09:18,474
Bryce, we have to test you for rabies.

215
00:09:24,188 --> 00:09:26,274
-[Carol crying]
-Just one second, love.

216
00:09:26,357 --> 00:09:28,317
-I got you.
-[Carol moans]

217
00:09:28,401 --> 00:09:30,653
-I got you, I got you.
-[Carol wincing]

218
00:09:30,736 --> 00:09:32,280
I know, I know. I got you.

219
00:09:33,322 --> 00:09:35,616
[whispering] Just a little bit.
Just a little bit.

220
00:09:37,827 --> 00:09:40,121
-[Carol] Mm.
-It's okay.

221
00:10:01,183 --> 00:10:03,060
[Austin] She's not getting
enough calories.

222
00:10:03,144 --> 00:10:06,147
I've tried five other flavors
and she wouldn't touch them.

223
00:10:06,230 --> 00:10:09,734
But this one, chocolate raspberry chia,

224
00:10:09,817 --> 00:10:11,110
I think this is the one.

225
00:10:11,777 --> 00:10:13,404
You might wanna stick it in the freezer.

226
00:10:13,487 --> 00:10:14,447
She just fell asleep.

227
00:10:15,239 --> 00:10:17,241
She could be tired from the pain meds.

228
00:10:17,325 --> 00:10:19,869
And I know that also affects appetite.

229
00:10:21,203 --> 00:10:25,833
Or her body is requiring less energy.

230
00:10:25,916 --> 00:10:27,877
Less input, less output

231
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,296
as she begins to enter
a hibernation state.

232
00:10:32,632 --> 00:10:35,301
Dr. Austin, I'm not just here
for your mother.

233
00:10:36,260 --> 00:10:37,428
I'm here for you, too.

234
00:10:38,304 --> 00:10:39,930
So, if you have any questions…

235
00:10:43,768 --> 00:10:46,103
How much longer does she have?

236
00:10:48,022 --> 00:10:50,650
Could be a week, or a few days.

237
00:10:52,151 --> 00:10:54,153
Her metabolic functions will be telling.

238
00:10:54,820 --> 00:10:56,947
But she'll also give us signs as well.

239
00:10:57,031 --> 00:10:59,158
She may want to open up

240
00:10:59,241 --> 00:11:02,244
and start to talk about things
she's never discussed before.

241
00:11:02,995 --> 00:11:04,664
She may get a burst of energy.

242
00:11:04,747 --> 00:11:07,249
We call that "planes,
trains, and automobiles."

243
00:11:08,542 --> 00:11:11,212
If your mom starts
making plans for a trip,

244
00:11:12,213 --> 00:11:14,048
that usually means she's ready to go.

245
00:11:17,093 --> 00:11:18,594
I don't know how you do it.

246
00:11:20,513 --> 00:11:23,682
You know, your job seems incredibly hard.

247
00:11:23,766 --> 00:11:26,644
[chuckles softly]
And being a surgeon is easy?

248
00:11:27,895 --> 00:11:30,564
I can solve problems with a scalpel.

249
00:11:31,857 --> 00:11:34,902
You know, I can find a cure.
There's always an answer.

250
00:11:36,987 --> 00:11:39,115
But waiting for death to come

251
00:11:40,616 --> 00:11:43,411
and not trying to do anything
to stop it, I don't…

252
00:11:45,162 --> 00:11:46,580
I don't know how to do that.

253
00:11:48,249 --> 00:11:49,834
All you have to do

254
00:11:50,835 --> 00:11:52,586
is follow your mother's lead.

255
00:12:05,516 --> 00:12:06,851
[Conrad] He's positive.

256
00:12:07,726 --> 00:12:08,894
Bryce has rabies.

257
00:12:08,978 --> 00:12:11,272
Rabies? But that's so impossibly rare.

258
00:12:11,355 --> 00:12:14,316
The odds of a doctor seeing
a rabies patient over the course

259
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:16,944
of their career is one in 325 million.

260
00:12:17,027 --> 00:12:20,698
Okay, we know the rabies virus spreads
to the brain through the nerve cells,

261
00:12:20,781 --> 00:12:21,740
and once it's the--

262
00:12:21,824 --> 00:12:22,992
It multiplies rapidly,

263
00:12:23,075 --> 00:12:25,744
causing severe inflammation
in the brain and the spine.

264
00:12:25,828 --> 00:12:28,706
It's 99.9% fatal if it's not
treated almost immediately.

265
00:12:28,789 --> 00:12:30,916
Only 11 patients have survived.

266
00:12:31,792 --> 00:12:33,919
Clearly the odds
aren't in Bryce's favor,

267
00:12:34,003 --> 00:12:35,838
but people have been saved before.

268
00:12:36,589 --> 00:12:39,258
So, now it's all about
when Bryce contracted the virus.

269
00:12:39,884 --> 00:12:41,093
Uh…

270
00:12:42,011 --> 00:12:43,220
[Devon] What?

271
00:12:43,304 --> 00:12:46,849
During intake, he told me
that he went camping. Naked.

272
00:12:46,932 --> 00:12:48,350
No tent, no sleeping bag.

273
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:50,311
It's some kind of an Earth-love thing.

274
00:12:51,812 --> 00:12:53,981
He could've been bitten
by a bat and never noticed.

275
00:12:55,566 --> 00:12:56,901
I wish you told us this sooner.

276
00:12:56,984 --> 00:12:58,277
I didn't think--

277
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,279
I'm sorry, I screwed up.

278
00:13:01,447 --> 00:13:02,781
[Conrad] Let's find the bite.

279
00:13:03,866 --> 00:13:05,951
The further away
from the central nervous system,

280
00:13:06,035 --> 00:13:08,621
the longer it takes the virus
to reach the brain, okay?

281
00:13:09,246 --> 00:13:10,414
Every second counts.

282
00:13:17,379 --> 00:13:18,631
[footsteps approaching]

283
00:13:18,714 --> 00:13:20,508
Why is he being tied up?

284
00:13:20,591 --> 00:13:22,301
Bryce never hurt anyone.

285
00:13:22,384 --> 00:13:23,928
You're making him feel claustrophobic.

286
00:13:24,011 --> 00:13:25,846
I know it's hard to see him like this,

287
00:13:25,930 --> 00:13:27,348
but rabies can cause aggression.

288
00:13:27,431 --> 00:13:29,225
It's safer for everyone, including Bryce.

289
00:13:30,017 --> 00:13:32,561
[Devon] We're gonna give him lorazepam
to relax him, okay?

290
00:13:32,645 --> 00:13:34,355
Bryce, we're looking for a bite.

291
00:13:34,438 --> 00:13:36,524
It may be so small, like a scratch,

292
00:13:36,607 --> 00:13:38,317
something you wouldn't have even noticed.

293
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,694
I don't know. I don't know, I…

294
00:13:40,778 --> 00:13:42,488
Bryce, tell me, how do you sleep?

295
00:13:43,155 --> 00:13:44,740
What do you mean?
With my eyes closed.

296
00:13:44,823 --> 00:13:47,159
-[Conrad] He means back, side, stomach?
-[Bryce] Side.

297
00:13:47,243 --> 00:13:48,452
-Okay.
-Let's go.

298
00:13:49,453 --> 00:13:50,663
[Bryce breathing heavily]

299
00:13:53,082 --> 00:13:54,124
[Devon] All right, here.

300
00:13:54,208 --> 00:13:55,417
There's some puncture marks.

301
00:13:56,168 --> 00:13:58,504
We need to get as much HRIG as possible

302
00:13:58,587 --> 00:14:00,422
into this infected area beneath the bite.

303
00:14:01,006 --> 00:14:03,217
Bryce, we're gonna give you
a series of injections.

304
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:05,177
A vaccine and some immunoglobulins.

305
00:14:05,261 --> 00:14:07,263
We're gonna repeat them every 12 hours.

306
00:14:07,346 --> 00:14:08,973
You're gonna get pretty sore.

307
00:14:09,056 --> 00:14:10,683
Those needles are huge.

308
00:14:10,766 --> 00:14:13,352
And if he's already sick, then why
are you giving him a vaccine?

309
00:14:13,435 --> 00:14:15,396
-Janice.
-We're trying to stop the virus

310
00:14:15,479 --> 00:14:17,147
from spreading to his nervous system.

311
00:14:17,231 --> 00:14:18,899
If we can slow the progress of the virus,

312
00:14:18,983 --> 00:14:20,484
we have a chance at treating him.

313
00:14:20,568 --> 00:14:22,903
That'll work? You'll cure him?

314
00:14:22,987 --> 00:14:25,364
[softly] Yeah…if he got here in time.

315
00:14:25,447 --> 00:14:26,574
[Bryce shouts]

316
00:14:27,950 --> 00:14:29,326
[Mia] Oh, God.

317
00:14:29,410 --> 00:14:31,620
No, I-I… I can't…

318
00:14:31,704 --> 00:14:33,247
I can't handle this. I…

319
00:14:34,039 --> 00:14:36,292
I can't watch him get worse and worse.

320
00:14:36,375 --> 00:14:37,334
[Bryce grunts]

321
00:14:37,418 --> 00:14:38,669
[grunts]

322
00:14:38,752 --> 00:14:39,837
[gasps] Oh, my God.

323
00:14:44,925 --> 00:14:46,719
[choking, grunting]

324
00:14:50,598 --> 00:14:51,682
The board lied.

325
00:14:54,101 --> 00:14:55,811
Promised the patient a fair investigation.

326
00:14:55,895 --> 00:14:58,689
Instead, case closed, no further review.

327
00:14:58,772 --> 00:15:00,482
Unbelievable.

328
00:15:00,566 --> 00:15:02,401
So I did more
investigating myself.

329
00:15:02,484 --> 00:15:05,571
And the names of the same
five doctors, including Bosley,

330
00:15:05,654 --> 00:15:07,031
come up again and again.

331
00:15:07,114 --> 00:15:09,950
These are career bad apples with multiple
complaints of the worst kind.

332
00:15:10,034 --> 00:15:12,912
You remember that surgeon
they called Dr. Death?

333
00:15:12,995 --> 00:15:15,372
Of course. He maimed
and killed patients in Texas.

334
00:15:15,456 --> 00:15:16,415
His colleagues knew it.

335
00:15:16,498 --> 00:15:17,875
They took it to the state board

336
00:15:17,958 --> 00:15:19,460
and the state board did nothing.

337
00:15:19,543 --> 00:15:20,961
But he got caught.

338
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:23,631
When someone leaked
the story to the press.

339
00:15:33,515 --> 00:15:34,767
There you are.

340
00:15:35,476 --> 00:15:36,894
I've been texting you nonstop.

341
00:15:37,353 --> 00:15:39,313
I know. I got your 5,000 messages.

342
00:15:41,065 --> 00:15:43,275
Don't worry, I didn't call AJ.

343
00:15:43,359 --> 00:15:45,527
I heard about his mom and
I'm respecting their privacy.

344
00:15:45,611 --> 00:15:46,904
Good.

345
00:15:46,987 --> 00:15:51,784
Okay, so… next steps?

346
00:15:51,867 --> 00:15:54,578
We call Dr. Johnson and we tell
her we're freezing the eggs.

347
00:15:54,662 --> 00:15:57,081
I'm not willing to give up
on this cycle of IVF just yet.

348
00:15:57,790 --> 00:15:59,416
It's not giving up.

349
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:00,918
A lot of people freeze their eggs.

350
00:16:01,001 --> 00:16:02,503
They do it because the timing

351
00:16:02,586 --> 00:16:04,588
of making a baby is just not right.

352
00:16:04,672 --> 00:16:07,591
Last week, I went to the farmers' market
and I got bagels.

353
00:16:07,675 --> 00:16:11,053
Okay? They were fresh
out of the oven, perfect.

354
00:16:11,136 --> 00:16:13,514
But I didn't think I'd be able
to eat them all in time

355
00:16:13,597 --> 00:16:16,058
before they went stale, so I froze them.

356
00:16:16,141 --> 00:16:18,143
And guess what happened the next day?

357
00:16:18,227 --> 00:16:20,187
You microwaved one and ate it?

358
00:16:22,439 --> 00:16:23,857
It wasn't the same.

359
00:16:23,941 --> 00:16:25,985
[Leela laughs] Padma,

360
00:16:26,068 --> 00:16:27,945
that is a ridiculous metaphor,

361
00:16:28,028 --> 00:16:30,531
and you cannot expect a donor
to just fall into your lap.

362
00:16:30,614 --> 00:16:33,659
It is really hard for me to talk
to you when you get like this.

363
00:16:33,742 --> 00:16:36,704
-Get like what?
-Overly Logical Leela.

364
00:16:37,788 --> 00:16:40,374
Trust the universe. No freezing.

365
00:16:44,169 --> 00:16:45,629
-[alarm beeping]
-[Bryce grunting]

366
00:16:45,713 --> 00:16:47,339
[Conrad] He snapped the restraint.

367
00:16:48,424 --> 00:16:50,759
Push two of lorazepam
and five of haloperidol.

368
00:16:50,843 --> 00:16:51,885
[Janice] On it.

369
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:53,178
[Bryce grunting]

370
00:16:53,262 --> 00:16:54,972
We're treating him too late, aren't we?

371
00:16:55,055 --> 00:16:57,182
-I hope not.
-[Bryce grunting]

372
00:16:57,266 --> 00:16:59,476
This virus is a terrible way to die.

373
00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,186
[Bryce grunting]

374
00:17:12,531 --> 00:17:14,033
[birds chirping]

375
00:17:20,622 --> 00:17:22,416
Hey. What are you doing on your feet?

376
00:17:24,001 --> 00:17:27,087
Dust inflames my sinuses.

377
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:32,760
I thought I told you last night.

378
00:17:32,843 --> 00:17:34,386
You need a haircut.

379
00:17:35,429 --> 00:17:37,806
Well, you also called me Dad,

380
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:39,683
so I figured I would let it ride.

381
00:17:40,476 --> 00:17:43,062
And come on, you really should
get back in bed, Mom, come on.

382
00:17:45,189 --> 00:17:46,231
Okay? Come on.

383
00:17:48,108 --> 00:17:51,820
Janaya said your peach tree was blooming.

384
00:17:51,904 --> 00:17:53,280
I'd like to see it.

385
00:17:54,698 --> 00:17:57,242
Okay. We'll get you in the wheelchair

386
00:17:57,326 --> 00:17:59,828
and we'll move you to the window.

387
00:17:59,912 --> 00:18:01,413
No, son.

388
00:18:02,664 --> 00:18:05,918
Hear my words. I feel good.

389
00:18:06,001 --> 00:18:07,836
I want to go outside.

390
00:18:09,963 --> 00:18:10,964
[whispers] Okay.

391
00:18:12,049 --> 00:18:14,176
We'll make it a field trip.

392
00:18:14,259 --> 00:18:16,136
-[Carol laughs softly]
-All right, let's do it.

393
00:18:21,767 --> 00:18:23,393
So far, I've identified

394
00:18:23,477 --> 00:18:26,772
two major hurdles in rabies protocols.

395
00:18:26,855 --> 00:18:29,191
We have antiviral effectiveness
and neuroprotection.

396
00:18:29,274 --> 00:18:32,444
So once the virus enters
his spinal cord or the brain,

397
00:18:32,528 --> 00:18:33,987
the antivirals are ineffective.

398
00:18:34,071 --> 00:18:36,990
The meds can't pass through
the blood-brain barrier. Patient dies.

399
00:18:37,074 --> 00:18:40,077
So, what if we made
the barrier more porous?

400
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,495
How?

401
00:18:41,578 --> 00:18:43,497
Something I learned in clinical trials.

402
00:18:44,957 --> 00:18:47,126
Some brain cancer studies show

403
00:18:47,209 --> 00:18:49,670
that mannitol can actually
poke holes in the barrier

404
00:18:49,753 --> 00:18:51,046
so that the chemo can get in.

405
00:18:51,130 --> 00:18:52,464
Yeah, poke enough holes

406
00:18:52,548 --> 00:18:55,551
in the blood-brain barrier
and the antivirals can seep through.

407
00:18:57,636 --> 00:18:59,429
[exhales] That's an incredible long shot.

408
00:18:59,513 --> 00:19:01,140
And it doesn't explain how we preserve

409
00:19:01,223 --> 00:19:03,392
the nervous system
long enough for it to work.

410
00:19:03,475 --> 00:19:05,435
So we need to figure out
a way to cool him down

411
00:19:05,519 --> 00:19:07,146
without heavy sedation.

412
00:19:07,229 --> 00:19:09,606
What if we lower his temperature
from the inside out?

413
00:19:09,690 --> 00:19:12,609
We place an IV cooling probe
in a blood vessel.

414
00:19:13,527 --> 00:19:14,611
Warm him from the outside

415
00:19:14,695 --> 00:19:16,238
with blankets and meds for shivering.

416
00:19:16,321 --> 00:19:18,323
So we take the existing rabies protocol

417
00:19:18,407 --> 00:19:20,492
and tweak it just a bit.
I mean, it could work.

418
00:19:22,411 --> 00:19:25,873
[exhales] I mean, it has
never been done before

419
00:19:25,956 --> 00:19:27,249
This is completely hypothetical.

420
00:19:27,332 --> 00:19:29,209
And the minute Bryce was bitten,

421
00:19:29,293 --> 00:19:31,086
hypothetical became his only chance.

422
00:19:32,171 --> 00:19:34,590
-[Austin] Thanks for coming.
-Flattered you remembered me.

423
00:19:36,466 --> 00:19:39,803
[chuckles] You wrote
that Dr. Reality Star piece.

424
00:19:39,887 --> 00:19:40,929
[exhales]

425
00:19:42,472 --> 00:19:43,515
I framed it.

426
00:19:45,809 --> 00:19:47,686
That's kind of you, since it was, uh,

427
00:19:47,769 --> 00:19:50,856
shall we say, a balanced profile?

428
00:19:50,939 --> 00:19:52,733
Well, I appreciated your honesty.

429
00:19:52,816 --> 00:19:53,942
That's why I called you.

430
00:19:54,026 --> 00:19:55,694
Look, we've sniffed around

431
00:19:55,777 --> 00:19:57,946
the medical board's incompetence
many times before,

432
00:19:58,030 --> 00:20:00,532
but without any proof,
we never get anywhere.

433
00:20:02,242 --> 00:20:03,577
I have case files.

434
00:20:06,371 --> 00:20:09,708
And patients that all are willing to talk.

435
00:20:09,791 --> 00:20:11,752
And I thought if you published
their stories--

436
00:20:11,835 --> 00:20:13,837
[Austin] The board
is appointed by the governor,

437
00:20:13,921 --> 00:20:15,130
approved by the state senate.

438
00:20:15,214 --> 00:20:18,133
You understand that by doing this,
you'll be rocking a very big boat.

439
00:20:18,217 --> 00:20:19,885
Oh, yeah, it's an ocean liner.

440
00:20:19,968 --> 00:20:22,346
You know, all doctors
benefit from the shield

441
00:20:22,429 --> 00:20:23,972
the white coat provides.

442
00:20:24,056 --> 00:20:25,224
And I have, too.

443
00:20:27,476 --> 00:20:29,853
Malpractice breaks our oath to do no harm,

444
00:20:29,937 --> 00:20:31,813
but it also destroys the public trust

445
00:20:31,897 --> 00:20:33,273
in even the best doctors.

446
00:20:33,357 --> 00:20:34,858
And the-the bad ones are few.

447
00:20:37,069 --> 00:20:38,487
But they need to be weeded out.

448
00:20:39,404 --> 00:20:41,323
And the guard dogs need to be reminded

449
00:20:41,406 --> 00:20:42,866
of who they're meant to protect.

450
00:20:48,914 --> 00:20:50,415
You mind if I record this?

451
00:20:51,124 --> 00:20:52,584
I'm counting on it.

452
00:20:57,673 --> 00:20:59,091
[Carol] Heavenly.

453
00:20:59,174 --> 00:21:03,095
You have a green thumb.

454
00:21:03,178 --> 00:21:05,722
Well, I have a well-paid landscaper.

455
00:21:05,806 --> 00:21:07,641
[Carol laughs]

456
00:21:11,853 --> 00:21:13,438
You've got your career,

457
00:21:14,564 --> 00:21:16,608
your beautiful home,

458
00:21:17,943 --> 00:21:21,780
your well-paid landscaper. [laughs]

459
00:21:23,031 --> 00:21:24,950
Is that all you need?

460
00:21:25,033 --> 00:21:28,203
Well, if…if you're inquiring
about my dating life,

461
00:21:28,287 --> 00:21:31,290
I-I assure you, it's-it's quite robust.

462
00:21:31,373 --> 00:21:33,125
Dating is fine.

463
00:21:34,167 --> 00:21:38,297
But you have to open yourself up to love.

464
00:21:40,215 --> 00:21:42,050
What about a family?

465
00:21:42,134 --> 00:21:43,885
-Bah.
-[groans]

466
00:21:44,970 --> 00:21:46,555
[laughs]

467
00:21:49,391 --> 00:21:51,351
Don't you worry about me, Mom.

468
00:21:51,435 --> 00:21:54,438
-[Carol] Mm.
-I'm gonna be okay.

469
00:21:54,521 --> 00:21:58,650
I want you to be more than okay.

470
00:21:58,734 --> 00:22:00,152
[coughs]

471
00:22:03,155 --> 00:22:04,948
You know what we need?

472
00:22:06,241 --> 00:22:09,786
A trip to Butter Bean Beach in Savannah.

473
00:22:11,371 --> 00:22:14,041
We haven't been in so long.

474
00:22:14,124 --> 00:22:16,001
Yeah, I don't think
we can manage that, Mom.

475
00:22:16,084 --> 00:22:17,919
I've turned a corner, AJ.

476
00:22:18,003 --> 00:22:21,548
We'll bring home a pile of shells!

477
00:22:22,674 --> 00:22:24,760
Come on, baby. Let's go.

478
00:22:24,843 --> 00:22:27,220
[coughing]

479
00:22:28,055 --> 00:22:29,639
Mom, you…you okay?

480
00:22:29,723 --> 00:22:30,807
Need some water?

481
00:22:30,891 --> 00:22:33,185
[gasps, coughing]

482
00:22:33,268 --> 00:22:35,645
[coughing] Can you get me back inside?

483
00:22:35,729 --> 00:22:37,481
Yes, yes, yes, yes.

484
00:22:46,364 --> 00:22:47,532
[softly] Rabies.

485
00:22:48,283 --> 00:22:50,160
Crazy, huh?

486
00:22:50,243 --> 00:22:52,120
I heard you did the intake.

487
00:22:52,204 --> 00:22:53,747
[Janice] More like blew the intake.

488
00:22:53,830 --> 00:22:55,040
I'm trying to convince myself

489
00:22:55,123 --> 00:22:57,584
that it wasn't what will kill him
'cause no matter what,

490
00:22:57,667 --> 00:22:59,419
too many days had passed since the bite,

491
00:22:59,503 --> 00:23:00,587
and he came in too late.

492
00:23:05,634 --> 00:23:07,177
[Conrad] All right.

493
00:23:07,260 --> 00:23:08,887
Temperature probe is set.

494
00:23:08,970 --> 00:23:11,681
We're gonna start
cooling you down now, okay?

495
00:23:11,765 --> 00:23:13,517
[Conrad] In order to protect your airway

496
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,644
we're gonna intubate you
with a breathing tube.

497
00:23:15,727 --> 00:23:17,896
[Devon] And you'll enter
a light hibernation state.

498
00:23:17,979 --> 00:23:19,564
You'll feel drowsy,

499
00:23:19,648 --> 00:23:21,608
and your breathing
and heart rates will fall.

500
00:23:21,691 --> 00:23:22,609
Like a bear.

501
00:23:23,860 --> 00:23:25,112
I love bears.

502
00:23:25,195 --> 00:23:26,905
[Conrad] Yeah, like a bear.

503
00:23:26,988 --> 00:23:30,951
But we need to keep you awake
as long as possible.

504
00:23:31,034 --> 00:23:31,952
So,

505
00:23:32,035 --> 00:23:35,914
Dr. Bonner is gonna sit with you,

506
00:23:35,997 --> 00:23:38,583
and she's gonna perform
serial neurochecks.

507
00:23:38,667 --> 00:23:42,671
Basically, that just means
she's gonna talk to you

508
00:23:42,754 --> 00:23:45,048
and keep you awake. All right?

509
00:23:55,267 --> 00:23:57,477
[knock on door, door opens]

510
00:23:57,561 --> 00:23:58,436
[door shuts]

511
00:23:59,521 --> 00:24:01,106
Listen, we…we were just outside, right?

512
00:24:01,189 --> 00:24:03,191
She…she was lucid, she was happy…

513
00:24:03,275 --> 00:24:04,818
[Janaya] Remember what I said.

514
00:24:04,901 --> 00:24:06,903
At the very end, patients can rally

515
00:24:06,987 --> 00:24:08,822
and have their best day in a long time.

516
00:24:09,990 --> 00:24:12,242
Your mother is dying. Maybe today,

517
00:24:12,325 --> 00:24:14,619
maybe tomorrow or the next day.
We don't know when.

518
00:24:15,662 --> 00:24:17,539
She is accepting,

519
00:24:17,622 --> 00:24:19,749
no longer fighting.

520
00:24:19,833 --> 00:24:21,543
That is a huge win.

521
00:24:22,878 --> 00:24:25,380
Now, Dr. Austin, it's your turn.

522
00:24:27,799 --> 00:24:29,259
What…what should I do?

523
00:24:29,342 --> 00:24:31,178
Don't burden her with your grief.

524
00:24:31,887 --> 00:24:34,472
Honor all that she is and has been.

525
00:24:34,556 --> 00:24:36,600
Say any words left unsaid.

526
00:24:36,683 --> 00:24:38,768
The last thing they lose is their hearing,

527
00:24:38,852 --> 00:24:40,228
so talk to her, if you wish.

528
00:25:06,338 --> 00:25:07,631

is because of you.

536
00:25:38,036 --> 00:25:40,038
I've been afraid of losing you.

537
00:25:43,124 --> 00:25:44,876
But these last couple of days,

538
00:25:45,835 --> 00:25:47,671

Feeling the loss of this chance.

But she'll understand
the story is just beginning.

558

She'll come around to freezing the eggs.

[Devon] Hmm.

560

Why not?

00:27:23,224 --> 00:27:24,768
Doesn't it solve everyone's problems?

565
00:27:24,851 --> 00:27:29,189
Wouldn't it help us, too, in the end?

566
00:27:30,482 --> 00:27:31,816
No, Devon.

567
00:27:32,817 --> 00:27:36,029
My egg and your sperm would make our baby.

568
00:27:36,112 --> 00:27:37,739
We couldn't give that baby away.

Well, I agree it would be
complicated, but hear me out.

It puts my sister between us
in a bizarre way.

It affects my relationship
with her profoundly,

581

and with the kid, and with you and me.

582

Can't you just discuss it
with her?

Increased pressure in the brain.

I think we need neuro right away.

600

Good call. Not very many doctors
would've caught it off

601
00:29:08,204 --> 00:29:09,664
of such a subtle finding.

602
00:29:09,748 --> 00:29:11,791
Can you give him
the extra ventricular drain?

603
00:29:11,875 --> 00:29:15,420
We can, but there's a limit
to how much CSF fluid he can lose.

00:37:01,010 --> 00:37:03,262
-[Hundley] Shh!
-…joined now by Dr. Randolph Bell,

709
00:37:03,346 --> 00:37:04,639
Chastain Memorial surgeon

710
00:37:04,722 --> 00:37:07,308
and now former member
of Georgia's State Medical Board.

711
00:37:07,391 --> 00:37:08,601
Thank you for having me.

712
00:37:08,684 --> 00:37:10,394
There's quite a scandal unfolding.

713
00:37:10,478 --> 00:37:11,479
Lack of oversight.

714
00:37:11,562 --> 00:37:14,523
Doctors who should lose
their licenses are still practicing.

715
00:37:14,607 --> 00:37:16,692
The Board doing nothing
to protect the patients

716
00:37:16,776 --> 00:37:17,902
they're tasked to protect.

717
00:37:17,985 --> 00:37:18,986
Oh, it doesn't end there.

718
00:37:19,070 --> 00:37:21,572
The governor and politicians
all over Georgia,

719
00:37:21,656 --> 00:37:24,283
who are supposed to make sure
that the Board does its work,

720
00:37:24,367 --> 00:37:26,953
are bought and paid for
by every single entity…

721
00:37:27,036 --> 00:37:28,037
[grunts]

722
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,539
[Bell] …that stands to lose
in a malpractice suit.

723
00:37:30,623 --> 00:37:31,624
And there are many.

724
00:37:31,707 --> 00:37:34,377
Hospitals, doctors, insurance
companies, the list is long.

725
00:37:34,460 --> 00:37:36,045
And it is full of deep pockets.

726
00:37:36,128 --> 00:37:36,963
[Emily] Finally!

727
00:37:37,046 --> 00:37:40,132
[Bell] The medical industrial complex
gives more money

728
00:37:40,216 --> 00:37:42,718
than any other single donor,
including the NRA.

729
00:37:42,802 --> 00:37:44,804
It just has to stop.

730
00:37:44,887 --> 00:37:47,139
I understand only 2%
of all malpractice cases

731
00:37:47,223 --> 00:37:49,558
are ever reviewed
by the State Medical Board.

732
00:37:49,642 --> 00:37:51,185
Break down for us, if you will,

733
00:37:51,269 --> 00:37:54,313
how everyday citizens are supposed
to get the attention of the Board.

734
00:37:54,397 --> 00:37:56,816
Well, that's at the very
heart of this, isn't it?

735
00:37:56,899 --> 00:38:00,403
Because most people don't know
that the State Medical Board

736
00:38:00,486 --> 00:38:02,571
is there to protect patients.

737
00:38:02,655 --> 00:38:03,781
[scoffs]

738
00:38:03,864 --> 00:38:05,116
[Kimberly] Who knew?

739
00:38:05,199 --> 00:38:07,326
He just called out
the whole Medical Board.

740
00:38:07,410 --> 00:38:09,578
He just called out the freaking governor.

741
00:38:10,955 --> 00:38:12,456
That's my man.

742
00:38:16,210 --> 00:38:17,253
[monitor beeping]

743
00:38:18,004 --> 00:38:20,131
You're tracking much better, Bryce.

744
00:38:20,214 --> 00:38:22,341
And you have some intentional movement

745
00:38:22,425 --> 00:38:24,302
in all four of your limbs.

746
00:38:24,385 --> 00:38:26,012
And it may not seem like it yet,

747
00:38:27,013 --> 00:38:28,514
but that is monumental.

748
00:38:28,597 --> 00:38:31,183
The virus did a number
on your nervous system,

749
00:38:31,267 --> 00:38:33,978
but you just beat one of
the most fatal diseases

750
00:38:34,061 --> 00:38:35,021
on the planet, man.

751
00:38:35,104 --> 00:38:36,188
[Devon] Yes, you did.

752
00:38:37,106 --> 00:38:38,232
And you're a young guy

753
00:38:38,316 --> 00:38:41,819
with a young brain
with the ability to rewire itself.

754
00:38:41,902 --> 00:38:43,446
I spoke to the rehab facility.

755
00:38:43,529 --> 00:38:46,157
They're gonna roll out
the red carpet for you, Bryce.

756
00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:48,117
You're a medical celebrity.

757
00:38:53,664 --> 00:38:55,499
You know, people are saying
you ought to have

758
00:38:55,583 --> 00:38:58,044
a whole wing dedicated
to this success story.

759
00:38:58,127 --> 00:39:01,547
The Hawkins-Pravesh
Rabies Treatment Facility.

760
00:39:01,630 --> 00:39:04,175
You mean the Pravesh-Hawkins Facility.

761
00:39:04,258 --> 00:39:06,135
Ha ha, I like hers better.

762
00:39:06,218 --> 00:39:09,138
But honestly, if I never see
another rabies patient again

763
00:39:09,221 --> 00:39:10,598
it'll be too soon.

764
00:39:12,224 --> 00:39:13,726
[Devon] Excuse me a sec, guys.

765
00:39:16,228 --> 00:39:19,023
Congratulations. I'm so proud of you.

766
00:39:20,316 --> 00:39:22,234
It was a team effort.

767
00:39:24,278 --> 00:39:25,571
So, uh…

768
00:39:28,616 --> 00:39:30,076
are things weird between us?

769
00:39:30,159 --> 00:39:31,202
Not weird.

770
00:39:31,285 --> 00:39:33,120
And we don't even have to discuss it

771
00:39:33,204 --> 00:39:35,122
because Padma agreed to freezing the eggs.

772
00:39:37,124 --> 00:39:38,084
Oh.

773
00:39:39,293 --> 00:39:42,004
I thought you said
her biological clock was ticking.

774
00:39:44,632 --> 00:39:46,425
What can I say?

775
00:39:46,509 --> 00:39:47,760
She hit snooze.

776
00:39:49,345 --> 00:39:50,429
You know my sister.

777
00:39:51,389 --> 00:39:52,306
[Devon] Hmm.

778
00:39:55,393 --> 00:39:58,104
Devon, did you really want
to father my sister's child?

779
00:39:58,187 --> 00:39:59,063
No, I, I…

780
00:40:00,481 --> 00:40:01,774
I don't know, I just…

781
00:40:03,818 --> 00:40:06,487
I don't know, I just want
to help in any way I can.

782
00:40:10,699 --> 00:40:12,326
I have to get to surgery.

783
00:40:12,410 --> 00:40:14,036
Congrats again on your patient.

784
00:40:24,505 --> 00:40:26,173
[doorbell rings]

785
00:40:26,257 --> 00:40:27,466
Hey.

786
00:40:27,550 --> 00:40:28,509
Look at that!

787
00:40:28,592 --> 00:40:30,302
Italian. Gigi's favorite.

788
00:40:30,386 --> 00:40:32,304
And she insisted
it was your favorite, too.

789
00:40:32,388 --> 00:40:34,056
Of course. Come on in.

790
00:40:35,015 --> 00:40:37,393
-Hey.
-This is for you, Dr. Austin.

791
00:40:37,476 --> 00:40:39,019
I'm sorry about your mommy.

792
00:40:39,103 --> 00:40:40,980
Oh, thank you, Double-G.

793
00:40:41,063 --> 00:40:43,149
Oh, I really appreciate it.

794
00:40:43,232 --> 00:40:44,733
All right, you guys come on in.

795
00:40:49,155 --> 00:40:52,366
Oh, these flowers are so nice. Thank you!

796
00:40:56,036 --> 00:40:57,496
[soft piano music playing]

797
00:41:08,716 --> 00:41:10,468
Everyone at Chastain misses you.

798
00:41:12,428 --> 00:41:13,512
I feel that.

799
00:41:14,722 --> 00:41:16,307
I'm not ready to come back yet.

800
00:41:17,766 --> 00:41:18,976
You know, I…

801
00:41:19,059 --> 00:41:20,519
I'm used to checking on her.

802
00:41:21,562 --> 00:41:23,731
You know, listening for her voice,

803
00:41:23,814 --> 00:41:25,149
for her every move.

804
00:41:25,983 --> 00:41:27,318
Now it's just silent.

805
00:41:29,820 --> 00:41:31,071
And I'm all alone.

806
00:41:34,366 --> 00:41:36,035
I could lend you Gigi.

807
00:41:36,118 --> 00:41:37,703
-[AJ laughs]
-[Gigi] Daddy!

808
00:41:37,786 --> 00:41:39,997
Daddy needs a break.
I'll pick you up in, uh,

809
00:41:40,080 --> 00:41:41,707
say, what, about a week?

810
00:41:41,790 --> 00:41:43,959
What do you say, Uncle AJ? Yeah?

811
00:41:53,052 --> 00:41:54,428
[Padma taking deep breaths]

812
00:41:54,512 --> 00:41:55,471
Are you nervous?

813
00:41:55,554 --> 00:41:56,722
Why would I be nervous?

814
00:41:56,805 --> 00:41:58,015
Because it's hatch day.

815
00:41:58,098 --> 00:42:00,017
Time to find out if you're a good chicken.

816
00:42:00,100 --> 00:42:00,935
[yelps softly]

817
00:42:04,396 --> 00:42:05,606
Dr. Austin.

818
00:42:06,232 --> 00:42:08,275
I didn't expect to see you here.

819
00:42:08,359 --> 00:42:09,944
I'm so sorry about your mother.

820
00:42:11,278 --> 00:42:13,739
Me, too. How are you?

821
00:42:16,325 --> 00:42:17,535
Grieving.

822
00:42:19,578 --> 00:42:21,288
It's gonna take some time, right?

823
00:42:22,623 --> 00:42:25,543
But it's time that a woman…

824
00:42:25,626 --> 00:42:28,712
women going through IVF

825
00:42:28,796 --> 00:42:30,589
cannot afford to waste.

826
00:42:33,133 --> 00:42:35,719
So, Padma, if it's not too late,

827
00:42:35,803 --> 00:42:37,471
I would like to be your sperm donor.

828
00:42:37,972 --> 00:42:39,974
[exhales sharply]

829
00:42:40,057 --> 00:42:42,935
And you didn't think
the universe would come through.

830
00:42:43,018 --> 00:42:44,270
Yes. Yes.

831
00:42:44,353 --> 00:42:45,563
Yes!

832
00:42:48,065 --> 00:42:49,775
[Austin] But there is a condition.

833
00:42:54,196 --> 00:42:57,116
Now that I'm alone in the world,

834
00:42:58,033 --> 00:42:59,994
I realize I…I don't like being alone.

835
00:43:00,995 --> 00:43:03,038
So if we're going to do this,

836
00:43:03,122 --> 00:43:05,207
I don't want to just be a donor.

837
00:43:06,333 --> 00:43:08,168
I've got to help you raise this kid.

838
00:43:09,837 --> 00:43:12,548
I want to be a father.

839
00:43:19,555 --> 00:43:21,307
[closing theme music playing]
