1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,320
Previously on Doc.

2
00:00:01,580 --> 00:00:05,080
He'll say all the right things. He'll do
what needs to be done. He's TJ.

3
00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:07,780
Did you follow up on what we talked
about? The nightmares?

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,030
Yeah. I want to have a child.

5
00:00:10,230 --> 00:00:12,010
We've wasted so much time.

6
00:00:12,230 --> 00:00:14,590
Your ovarian reserve has become very
low.

7
00:00:14,830 --> 00:00:16,870
Gina, your eggs appear to still be
viable.

8
00:00:17,090 --> 00:00:18,850
You started the day with a HIPAA
violation.

9
00:00:19,070 --> 00:00:21,070
I want to know what you're going to do
to turn things around.

10
00:00:21,290 --> 00:00:23,510
I'm Graham. Your parents gave, what, 20
mil to the hospital?

11
00:00:23,810 --> 00:00:27,930
She's insisting she's ready to work. If
she does anything to earn my distrust,

12
00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:29,650
I'll be the first one showing her the
door.

13
00:00:31,830 --> 00:00:34,010
Dad, none of these are going to work.

14
00:00:34,310 --> 00:00:35,830
Oh, no. They're all burnt.

15
00:00:36,670 --> 00:00:37,810
No, we need more.

16
00:00:38,330 --> 00:00:39,330
I've got bad news.

17
00:00:39,910 --> 00:00:41,050
No. No.

18
00:00:41,270 --> 00:00:44,210
We need at least one good batch. I know,
I know. Dad, come on.

19
00:00:44,630 --> 00:00:47,410
I've got to do a taste test. Hazel's
going to be here in like two minutes for

20
00:00:47,410 --> 00:00:48,830
our sleepover. In like two minutes?

21
00:00:49,450 --> 00:00:52,450
Serious? We can just give these burnt
ones to Uncle Kenny. He'll eat anything,

22
00:00:52,610 --> 00:00:53,610
right?

23
00:00:58,150 --> 00:00:59,490
Where this is?

24
00:01:01,090 --> 00:01:02,090
What?

25
00:01:06,860 --> 00:01:07,860
Roxy, what?

26
00:01:09,100 --> 00:01:10,100
What's going on?

27
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:12,160
Where? Where?

28
00:01:13,140 --> 00:01:14,140
Where?

29
00:01:47,820 --> 00:01:50,280
So did you find Mr. Right yet? Oh, no.

30
00:01:50,580 --> 00:01:53,280
There's way too many to choose from. Oh,
I like him.

31
00:01:53,480 --> 00:01:54,480
What's his CV?

32
00:01:54,660 --> 00:01:56,900
UCLA undergrad, MBA from Berkeley.

33
00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:00,420
And he brews his own craft beer as a
hobby. Kind of like that.

34
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:04,940
Is it me or does this whole thing feel
like some icky master race sci-fi

35
00:02:04,940 --> 00:02:06,520
experiment? What's the alternative?

36
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,160
If Wendy has her way, Marcus.

37
00:02:10,060 --> 00:02:11,060
Her brother.

38
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:15,600
Family lines, generational legacy, and a
dose of guilt since it was supposed to

39
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:16,600
be her egg to begin with.

40
00:02:16,700 --> 00:02:19,200
How do you feel about that? About the
prospect of Uncle Daddy?

41
00:02:20,260 --> 00:02:21,340
It's a bit fraught.

42
00:02:21,660 --> 00:02:23,600
Too bad you already went there. I'd ask
Ben.

43
00:02:23,860 --> 00:02:26,620
Not if you'd been having the memories
that I'm getting here with.

44
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:27,799
Oh, no.

45
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:28,800
What now?

46
00:02:28,900 --> 00:02:30,140
It's about the trial.

47
00:02:30,920 --> 00:02:35,460
Apparently, I consulted on it, and I
remembered calling him and asking him

48
00:02:35,460 --> 00:02:36,460
about a problem.

49
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:38,980
But that was, like, four years ago.

50
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,820
They must have gone through half a dozen
research boards for approval to even get

51
00:02:42,820 --> 00:02:47,700
this far. I know, but now I'm wondering
if my brain is back to warning me about

52
00:02:47,700 --> 00:02:50,640
something. So you don't have enough on
your plate trying to manage 30 interns.

53
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:54,440
You want to go on some wild goose chase,
which violates your whole mantra.

54
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,040
Wait, what was it again?

55
00:02:56,460 --> 00:02:57,460
Oh, right.

56
00:02:57,660 --> 00:02:59,840
You were going to look forward.

57
00:03:01,300 --> 00:03:04,440
Right. So go then. Into the future,
please.

58
00:03:05,380 --> 00:03:06,800
Keep going. Goodbye.

59
00:03:14,300 --> 00:03:15,300
Hey. Hey.

60
00:03:22,340 --> 00:03:23,780
So this is how it's gonna be now?

61
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:29,660
It's Rachel. I gotta take this. Is that
okay?

62
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:32,880
Did you hear anything yet?

63
00:03:38,030 --> 00:03:39,330
Hi, I'm Dr. Larson.

64
00:03:39,690 --> 00:03:44,590
This is Dr. De Silva and Dr. Barker.
James, my wife Hillary, this is Roxy.

65
00:03:44,730 --> 00:03:46,950
Hi. Hi, Roxy. How are you feeling?

66
00:03:47,650 --> 00:03:50,030
I'm good. Yeah. We don't know what
happened.

67
00:03:50,950 --> 00:03:55,550
It's like she's totally fine now, but
she was... And then they sent us up here

68
00:03:55,550 --> 00:03:58,850
and they wouldn't tell us anything. The
ER did preliminary labs and imaging, and

69
00:03:58,850 --> 00:04:00,290
everything came back normal.

70
00:04:00,570 --> 00:04:01,570
Hey there, Rockstar.

71
00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:02,750
Uncle Kenny.

72
00:04:03,390 --> 00:04:04,590
That's my brother, Kenny.

73
00:04:05,290 --> 00:04:08,610
Hi. Is Hazel here? No, sweetie, she's at
home. It's her cousin.

74
00:04:08,830 --> 00:04:10,510
We can FaceTime her in a bit, okay?

75
00:04:11,230 --> 00:04:12,850
So, what's going on here?

76
00:04:13,130 --> 00:04:14,130
Dr. De Silva?

77
00:04:14,350 --> 00:04:19,750
We tested Roxy for infections, vitamin
deficiencies, and thyroid function, all

78
00:04:19,750 --> 00:04:20,750
of which came back negative.

79
00:04:21,050 --> 00:04:24,910
Our next step is to perform something
called a spinal tap, which will allow us

80
00:04:24,910 --> 00:04:27,550
to collect fluid surrounding her spinal
nerves.

81
00:04:27,830 --> 00:04:28,830
Oh, my God.

82
00:04:28,950 --> 00:04:30,730
Wait, it's like a...

83
00:04:31,350 --> 00:04:34,630
Like a needle in her spine? Yeah, it's a
very standard, well-established

84
00:04:34,630 --> 00:04:35,630
procedure.

85
00:04:35,710 --> 00:04:36,710
Will it hurt?

86
00:04:36,770 --> 00:04:38,690
No. Roxy will be sedated.

87
00:04:39,070 --> 00:04:43,130
You won't feel a thing. Okay, so why do
you need to do that? What exactly are

88
00:04:43,130 --> 00:04:44,009
you looking for?

89
00:04:44,010 --> 00:04:45,010
Dr. Barker?

90
00:04:45,330 --> 00:04:47,930
Anything that could be affecting Roxy's
nervous system.

91
00:04:48,170 --> 00:04:49,190
Any sign of an infection.

92
00:04:49,430 --> 00:04:51,190
It's the best way for us to get clear
answers.

93
00:04:51,570 --> 00:04:53,590
And what we find will determine our next
steps.

94
00:04:54,890 --> 00:04:59,440
I know it sounds really scary, but... We
wouldn't perform any procedure that we

95
00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:00,500
didn't think was absolutely necessary.

96
00:05:04,940 --> 00:05:06,760
Dr. De Silva, set up the LP.

97
00:05:06,980 --> 00:05:10,100
Yes. And Dr. Barker, make sure you get
all the consent signed from Mom and Dad.

98
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:11,360
Absolutely.

99
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,400
Well, Dr. Larson, I'm sorry. I meant to
ask you something earlier, but I have a

100
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:20,280
family commitment this afternoon. I was
hoping I could step out for a bit. Step

101
00:05:20,280 --> 00:05:21,820
out? In the middle of your shift?

102
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,700
Yeah, it's a lunch thing honoring my
stepmother, you know, Nina Barker.

103
00:05:28,070 --> 00:05:29,070
It's kind of a big deal.

104
00:05:29,270 --> 00:05:32,710
There are protocols for asking for time
off. Clearly you've known about this for

105
00:05:32,710 --> 00:05:35,410
a while. Yeah, yeah, that's my bad. I
didn't think it was something I could

106
00:05:35,410 --> 00:05:36,790
ask for my first week.

107
00:05:37,150 --> 00:05:41,270
Then I spoke to her this morning, and
she told me how important it was to her.

108
00:05:41,510 --> 00:05:44,370
So it's right on McAllister.

109
00:05:46,890 --> 00:05:47,890
You have an hour.

110
00:05:48,290 --> 00:05:51,610
You will finish everything on your
patient list before you go. Of course,

111
00:05:51,750 --> 00:05:54,610
of course, of course. I'm heading to
check on Ms. Camelia's blood cultures

112
00:05:54,610 --> 00:05:56,450
right now. Thank you so much.

113
00:05:59,340 --> 00:06:00,340
He seems happy.

114
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,660
He is something, that's for sure.

115
00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:06,020
How did it go last night with TJ?

116
00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:07,600
Honestly, I have no idea.

117
00:06:08,020 --> 00:06:09,020
What do you mean?

118
00:06:09,180 --> 00:06:15,180
Well, he was great, like I expected. And
then this morning...

119
00:06:15,180 --> 00:06:18,160
Oh, okay. Well, he's avoiding.

120
00:06:18,620 --> 00:06:19,780
It's not shocking.

121
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,880
This is going to sound strange, but
you've known him for longer than anyone

122
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:25,859
else here.

123
00:06:25,860 --> 00:06:28,620
Yeah, like 15 years. But I have an
eight-year blind spot.

124
00:06:29,930 --> 00:06:32,750
No memories of him during that period?

125
00:06:33,530 --> 00:06:34,730
No, not really.

126
00:06:36,090 --> 00:06:37,470
What are you asking exactly?

127
00:06:37,850 --> 00:06:38,850
I don't know.

128
00:06:39,630 --> 00:06:44,790
Something's just kind of... He almost
seems detached from the situation.

129
00:06:45,370 --> 00:06:49,410
He's been through a lot. I'm sure he has
his coping mechanisms.

130
00:06:50,370 --> 00:06:52,070
Maybe just give him some space.

131
00:06:53,370 --> 00:06:54,990
Right. Thanks.

132
00:06:59,210 --> 00:07:00,210
This happened when?

133
00:07:00,670 --> 00:07:01,670
About a week ago.

134
00:07:02,050 --> 00:07:04,470
Okay, we'll have Dr. Maitre take a look.
Here she is.

135
00:07:04,690 --> 00:07:06,990
Dr. Maitre, this is Mason McCanty.

136
00:07:07,230 --> 00:07:09,090
Swollen jaw from a bench-pressing
injury.

137
00:07:09,630 --> 00:07:10,890
Barbell slipped out of my hand.

138
00:07:11,170 --> 00:07:13,650
Temp set 102, and the site's warm to the
touch.

139
00:07:14,230 --> 00:07:15,230
Looks like an infection.

140
00:07:15,510 --> 00:07:16,510
Yes, it does.

141
00:07:17,290 --> 00:07:18,610
How much were you benching?

142
00:07:19,070 --> 00:07:20,150
About 215.

143
00:07:20,610 --> 00:07:22,650
I'm trying to put on some muscle mass,
you know?

144
00:07:24,350 --> 00:07:27,270
I'm gonna demarcate the area around the
swelling.

145
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,640
So we can monitor the site.

146
00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:31,260
What does that mean?

147
00:07:32,260 --> 00:07:33,880
It means that you're a circle on your
face.

148
00:07:34,940 --> 00:07:36,680
Just making sure the infection doesn't
spread.

149
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:38,640
Suggested course of action?

150
00:07:39,380 --> 00:07:42,420
Blood cultures and start them on a
broad-spectrum IV antibiotic.

151
00:07:42,900 --> 00:07:45,520
Plus a CT to make sure the infection
hasn't invaded the bone.

152
00:07:45,940 --> 00:07:47,860
Exactly. So we're going to do tests?

153
00:07:48,900 --> 00:07:49,900
What's that going to show?

154
00:07:50,020 --> 00:07:53,600
We need to take a closer look at your
injury, see the extent of the damage.

155
00:07:55,140 --> 00:07:56,140
Right.

156
00:07:56,780 --> 00:07:57,780
Sure. Okay.

157
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:07,760
Looks like the infection has invaded
bone.

158
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,140
That's not the only thing I'm worried
about. Look at those hairline fractures.

159
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,260
Yeah, there's dozens of them. Yeah, and
see the pattern?

160
00:08:15,980 --> 00:08:17,440
I've been reading about this.

161
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:22,000
It's just hard to believe it, even when
you see it.

162
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:23,920
I don't understand.

163
00:08:24,490 --> 00:08:27,290
This is why he was nervous about us
testing him.

164
00:08:28,550 --> 00:08:29,810
He did this to himself.

165
00:08:31,470 --> 00:08:32,470
Intentionally.

166
00:08:43,210 --> 00:08:44,210
Hi.

167
00:08:48,110 --> 00:08:49,590
I'm sorry I'm late.

168
00:08:50,070 --> 00:08:53,050
There was a mistake upstairs that I had
to fix.

169
00:08:53,450 --> 00:08:56,970
Always going to be a reason for Dr.
Larson to swoop in and save the day.

170
00:08:57,770 --> 00:09:00,950
Can I get you a coffee or something? No,
I'm fine. Thanks.

171
00:09:01,430 --> 00:09:06,830
I don't know how to... I'm so sorry
about you and Michael. The divorce.

172
00:09:07,190 --> 00:09:09,170
That's nothing that you need to worry
about, TJ.

173
00:09:09,830 --> 00:09:10,990
Anyway, I want to talk about you.

174
00:09:11,470 --> 00:09:12,470
How's med school?

175
00:09:13,330 --> 00:09:14,330
Incredible.

176
00:09:14,830 --> 00:09:16,730
Has the transition been hard?

177
00:09:17,550 --> 00:09:19,170
Transition? From active duty.

178
00:09:20,850 --> 00:09:21,850
Stay side is...

179
00:09:22,459 --> 00:09:27,420
Definitely less exciting, but it's all
good.

180
00:09:27,660 --> 00:09:29,220
Well, I am so proud of you.

181
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,460
Finishing college while making Ranger.

182
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:37,920
Yep, traded in frats and keg parties for
IEDs and night raids.

183
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:39,200
That's quite a feat.

184
00:09:39,660 --> 00:09:41,140
Feels like I found purpose over there.

185
00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:43,800
And now, with the medicine.

186
00:09:44,060 --> 00:09:46,320
I better be your first call when
residency comes around.

187
00:09:47,300 --> 00:09:49,380
You gonna save a spot for me? I got four
more years.

188
00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:51,440
As long as I'm chief.

189
00:09:53,610 --> 00:09:57,090
We perform a bone resection to clear the
infected tissue, then flush the area

190
00:09:57,090 --> 00:09:58,090
with antibiotics.

191
00:09:58,130 --> 00:09:59,130
Bone resection?

192
00:09:59,450 --> 00:10:00,450
That'll leave a scar.

193
00:10:00,510 --> 00:10:01,610
We can bring in a plastic surgeon.

194
00:10:01,890 --> 00:10:04,710
If your goal is to clear the infection,
I'm sure there's another way. Oh!

195
00:10:05,410 --> 00:10:07,110
You started the consult already.

196
00:10:07,790 --> 00:10:10,470
You weren't here yet, and he wanted to
know the plan. Did you explain to him

197
00:10:10,470 --> 00:10:12,110
that this could lead to sepsis? Of
course.

198
00:10:12,870 --> 00:10:15,550
Sepsis means it could kill you. I get
it.

199
00:10:15,770 --> 00:10:18,190
You are not cutting a hole in my face.

200
00:10:18,430 --> 00:10:21,470
We won't know the extent of the damage
until we go in surgically. If you can't

201
00:10:21,470 --> 00:10:22,470
figure it out...

202
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,480
I'll do my own research.

203
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,640
Seriously? Please put the phone down,
Mason. You're not going to find the

204
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:29,640
solution there.

205
00:10:30,820 --> 00:10:35,680
I'm hesitant to suggest this, and I
don't recommend it, but we could try a

206
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:39,380
stronger round of IV antibiotics with a
needle aspiration and monitor the

207
00:10:39,380 --> 00:10:42,040
situation very closely over the next 12
hours.

208
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:44,420
As long as you're not cutting into my
face.

209
00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:48,440
But you need to understand that it could
get worse, and at that point, we would

210
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,360
need to revisit the surgical option.

211
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,900
I'll take my chances.

212
00:10:54,340 --> 00:10:55,780
You better get an informed refusal.

213
00:10:56,500 --> 00:10:57,459
What's that?

214
00:10:57,460 --> 00:11:01,060
It means you're ignoring sound medical
advice in favor of a much riskier

215
00:11:01,060 --> 00:11:02,880
course. So it protects you.

216
00:11:03,180 --> 00:11:04,200
That's right, it does.

217
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:09,020
Appreciate the consult. Dr. Coleman will
pay you if anything changes.

218
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:16,980
A needle aspiration kit? Please.

219
00:11:23,370 --> 00:11:27,490
I know this is something you're not
going to want to talk about, but are you

220
00:11:27,490 --> 00:11:31,050
doing something to your face to change
your appearance? I already told you it

221
00:11:31,050 --> 00:11:32,050
was the barbell.

222
00:11:32,470 --> 00:11:36,750
Go get whatever forms you need me to
sign. Mason, we need to... No more

223
00:11:36,750 --> 00:11:37,750
talking.

224
00:11:38,750 --> 00:11:41,670
The truth is, looks is health.

225
00:11:42,130 --> 00:11:47,650
I am going to show you how to look
smacks the real way in 2026, starting

226
00:11:47,650 --> 00:11:49,070
with your jaw.

227
00:11:49,310 --> 00:11:51,650
Dude, you're gorgeous as you are. What
are you doing?

228
00:11:52,780 --> 00:11:55,280
This is about a patient. Oh, God. One of
those incel freaks?

229
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,160
No idea. But it's crazy what these looks
maxers are doing.

230
00:11:59,500 --> 00:12:02,280
My patient's bone smashing to give
himself a better jawline.

231
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:04,280
Good thing guys like us don't have to
worry about that, right?

232
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:06,400
Right.

233
00:12:06,980 --> 00:12:11,180
Sure. Anyway, a friend of mine bailed on
the Twins game tonight, so I got an

234
00:12:11,180 --> 00:12:12,180
extra ticket.

235
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:15,880
Killer seats, dude. Like, three rows
from the dugout. You down?

236
00:12:17,420 --> 00:12:18,420
Yeah. Sure.

237
00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:20,320
Absolutely. Right on.

238
00:12:20,940 --> 00:12:21,940
Twins are...

239
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:24,080
Baseball, right? Oh, okay.

240
00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:25,560
Got a lot to teach you.

241
00:12:26,140 --> 00:12:30,300
Only thing, though, I gotta go to this
lunch thing today, and I'm kind of

242
00:12:30,300 --> 00:12:35,060
behind on some of my patient follow-up.
Can you, uh... Can you do me a solid?

243
00:12:36,140 --> 00:12:39,820
You mean covers for you? Yeah. I mean,
otherwise, we'll never make it out in

244
00:12:39,820 --> 00:12:42,760
time tonight, so... Um, sure.

245
00:12:44,180 --> 00:12:45,960
Yeah, no problem. All right.

246
00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:47,920
Sick.

247
00:12:48,940 --> 00:12:52,200
I gotta go do this spinal tap with
Larson now, but I'll hit you up with the

248
00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:52,959
beads later.

249
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:53,960
Alright?

250
00:12:58,980 --> 00:12:59,980
We're just waiting.

251
00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:02,400
Yeah.

252
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,020
It'll take a little while longer.

253
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:06,740
It's gonna be okay, man.

254
00:13:07,260 --> 00:13:08,700
I'm looking it up.

255
00:13:09,260 --> 00:13:11,720
Spinal tap's not nearly as scary as it
sounds.

256
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,460
This is a great hospital, and these are
the best doctors.

257
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:18,600
Alright?

258
00:13:21,540 --> 00:13:26,320
Insert the needle at a slight upward
angle, aiming toward the umbilicus.

259
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:30,820
Dr. Barker, what does it mean if the CSF
comes out cloudy?

260
00:13:31,620 --> 00:13:35,180
Meningitis. And if it comes up viscous,
Dr. De Silva?

261
00:13:35,540 --> 00:13:38,180
Cancer. And yellow fluid indicates brain
bleed.

262
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:44,080
It's clear.

263
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,440
Which means we have no idea what it is.

264
00:13:47,579 --> 00:13:49,720
You did a procedure on her spine for
nothing.

265
00:13:49,940 --> 00:13:53,800
It was necessary, and it helped us rule
out some things, but we are going to

266
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:54,800
need to do more tests.

267
00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:56,640
Does this mean I can't go home?

268
00:13:57,180 --> 00:13:59,140
Not for a little while yet, Roxy.

269
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,160
How long has your life been doing that?

270
00:14:04,620 --> 00:14:05,620
I don't know.

271
00:14:05,940 --> 00:14:07,080
Is it from the procedure?

272
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:08,900
No. No.

273
00:14:11,300 --> 00:14:12,760
Are you feeling hot at all?

274
00:14:12,980 --> 00:14:13,980
No.

275
00:14:14,220 --> 00:14:15,960
And she's all caught up on her vaccines.

276
00:14:16,460 --> 00:14:17,449
Yeah, of course.

277
00:14:17,450 --> 00:14:21,110
Kids need to be 12 months before they
can get their first dose of MMR.

278
00:14:21,610 --> 00:14:25,150
Was she ever sick before she was able to
get those shots?

279
00:14:25,690 --> 00:14:26,990
Measles, mumps, rubella?

280
00:14:27,430 --> 00:14:32,430
Yeah, she had a fever a few times, but
nothing serious. She never had a rash or

281
00:14:32,430 --> 00:14:35,670
anything like that. Measles doesn't
always present with a typical rash.

282
00:14:36,190 --> 00:14:39,850
Was she ever around anyone who had it?
No, of course not.

283
00:14:40,070 --> 00:14:42,210
We don't know anyone that ever had it.
Right.

284
00:14:42,850 --> 00:14:43,850
Hazel did.

285
00:14:44,610 --> 00:14:45,610
What?

286
00:14:45,940 --> 00:14:47,780
Hazel. She had the measles.

287
00:14:49,020 --> 00:14:51,560
When? She was about two years old.

288
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,080
It was a couple weeks after that big
family reunion at Leech Lake.

289
00:14:56,700 --> 00:14:59,840
That was before Roxy's first birthday.
So she gave it to Roxy? Oh.

290
00:15:00,980 --> 00:15:04,340
Oh, my God. This is... You never had
Hazel vaccinated?

291
00:15:04,940 --> 00:15:07,060
No. So this could be SSPE.

292
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,100
S-what? What the hell is that?

293
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,400
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

294
00:15:10,940 --> 00:15:14,880
Information is key. And we just got a
little bit more, which is good.

295
00:15:15,870 --> 00:15:17,270
We're just going to need a little more
time.

296
00:15:19,910 --> 00:15:23,270
I'm sorry, Dr. Orson. I wanted to make
sure you didn't miss it.

297
00:15:23,530 --> 00:15:26,490
If she had measles as a baby, it could
have developed into SSPE.

298
00:15:26,850 --> 00:15:30,750
Of course I didn't miss it. That's why I
was asking the questions about the

299
00:15:30,750 --> 00:15:31,790
measles in the first place.

300
00:15:32,470 --> 00:15:35,110
But SSPE is a death sentence.

301
00:15:35,890 --> 00:15:38,930
We don't give that kind of information
unless we are absolutely sure.

302
00:15:39,510 --> 00:15:42,550
You're right. I'm sorry. This isn't the
first time you've ever stepped in front

303
00:15:42,550 --> 00:15:44,790
of a patient or jumped the gun on a
diagnosis.

304
00:15:45,010 --> 00:15:49,790
And if we are going to deliver news like
that, there is a... I can't understand

305
00:15:49,790 --> 00:15:50,790
what you're saying, Michael.

306
00:15:54,310 --> 00:15:55,310
Dr. Larson?

307
00:15:57,010 --> 00:16:01,610
If we're going to deliver that kind of
news, there is a way to do it.

308
00:16:02,430 --> 00:16:03,430
I understand.

309
00:16:04,190 --> 00:16:05,390
So what do we do next?

310
00:16:05,850 --> 00:16:10,170
For now, we're going to treat SSPE as a
diagnosis of exclusion, so let's start

311
00:16:10,170 --> 00:16:16,890
excluding. We will test for every other
possible illness and hope that one of

312
00:16:16,890 --> 00:16:17,890
them is the answer.

313
00:16:26,250 --> 00:16:28,890
TJ, your shift ended three hours ago.

314
00:16:29,150 --> 00:16:30,170
Yeah, I'm just catching up.

315
00:16:30,410 --> 00:16:31,970
If you weren't caught up, I'd know.

316
00:16:33,050 --> 00:16:34,050
Right, of course.

317
00:16:34,780 --> 00:16:38,060
You have to be back here at 6 a.m. Yeah,
I could just crash in your car. Sure,

318
00:16:38,220 --> 00:16:39,220
but I need you fresh.

319
00:16:39,340 --> 00:16:40,660
I am not sleeping much anyway.

320
00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:42,080
Go home.

321
00:16:44,300 --> 00:16:45,780
Tell Jennifer I said you're welcome.

322
00:16:46,060 --> 00:16:49,660
Oh, um... Jen and I broke up.

323
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:52,300
Sorry. You okay?

324
00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,780
Yeah. I'm fine.

325
00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,080
You told me last week she was moving in.
She just doesn't get it.

326
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,020
What we need to do to be doctors.

327
00:17:02,830 --> 00:17:06,089
I will go home, be ready for you
tomorrow, back at it.

328
00:17:09,589 --> 00:17:11,670
Hey, you sure you're okay?

329
00:17:12,390 --> 00:17:13,890
Yeah, I'm so good.

330
00:17:17,790 --> 00:17:19,670
Yes, I already explained the risks.

331
00:17:20,069 --> 00:17:22,930
The guy needs a psych consult. The
girl's 11 and we're looking at the

332
00:17:22,930 --> 00:17:25,109
possibility of SSPE. I need those labs
now.

333
00:17:26,730 --> 00:17:29,470
Fine, just get them to me as soon as
they're ready.

334
00:17:29,930 --> 00:17:31,110
Literally standing by.

335
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,740
No, no, the name's Gamelia.

336
00:17:33,060 --> 00:17:34,060
Frances Gamelia.

337
00:17:34,140 --> 00:17:36,240
Yeah, just calling to check on her blood
culture.

338
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:38,720
Kyle, what are you doing?

339
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:43,680
Oh, I was just making sure. I don't
remember asking you to check on my

340
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:44,680
patient.

341
00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:45,800
Right.

342
00:17:46,300 --> 00:17:50,380
Sorry, I should have... I'm just doing a
favor for Graham.

343
00:17:50,600 --> 00:17:53,780
Graham can handle Graham's work. I will
get the blood culture results.

344
00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:55,460
You get back to your rounds.

345
00:17:55,820 --> 00:17:56,820
Yeah, I understand.

346
00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:57,920
We'll get back to you.

347
00:17:58,020 --> 00:18:00,600
Well, feel free to call Dr. Matri. He is
her patient.

348
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,220
I hope you're not talking to Dr. Grant
that way.

349
00:18:05,420 --> 00:18:06,760
No, um, Fox.

350
00:18:07,380 --> 00:18:11,180
Still? Yeah, um, non-compliant patient
really getting out of my skin.

351
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,920
Hey, I haven't had a chance to check in
with you.

352
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,600
How are you doing with everything?

353
00:18:19,100 --> 00:18:20,620
You mean moving to surgery? That's going
great.

354
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:22,760
I mean with Sonia.

355
00:18:23,100 --> 00:18:24,100
Oh.

356
00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:30,360
Yeah. I mean, it's a lot, so it's
understandable if you feel thrown a bit.

357
00:18:31,130 --> 00:18:34,210
Did Sonya ask you to talk to me? No, no,
of course not. Because it seems like

358
00:18:34,210 --> 00:18:35,610
you're pretty involved in all of this.

359
00:18:36,210 --> 00:18:39,510
She was scared, TJ. She needed to know
how far along she was.

360
00:18:40,650 --> 00:18:42,750
She saved hearing the heartbeat for you.

361
00:18:43,550 --> 00:18:47,030
Listen, I don't think this is the place
for any of this, so... Right, I'm sorry,

362
00:18:47,210 --> 00:18:48,690
I... I have a few patients to attend to.

363
00:18:49,010 --> 00:18:51,310
Some consults, so...

364
00:18:51,310 --> 00:18:58,170
I know I freaked you out.

365
00:18:58,210 --> 00:18:59,710
Clearly, you need to talk to somebody.

366
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,960
She's negative for anti-NMDA
encephalitis.

367
00:19:12,220 --> 00:19:17,020
So that's good, right? It's a process of
elimination right now. The next step

368
00:19:17,020 --> 00:19:19,280
would be a cerebral angiogram. What's
that?

369
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:24,940
We put a catheter into the arteries that
feed her brain and inject dye so we can

370
00:19:24,940 --> 00:19:26,440
see what's going on with the vessels
inside.

371
00:19:28,780 --> 00:19:31,580
God. What are you looking for now?

372
00:19:32,129 --> 00:19:37,070
This would be to eliminate possible
aneurysm or abnormal blood vessels,

373
00:19:37,230 --> 00:19:40,930
either of which could be causing this. I
know that sounds scary, but either of

374
00:19:40,930 --> 00:19:41,930
those would be treatable.

375
00:19:42,270 --> 00:19:44,410
And if you don't find what you're
looking for, then what?

376
00:19:44,790 --> 00:19:49,210
A brain biopsy, which is extremely
invasive, so we're putting that off as

377
00:19:49,210 --> 00:19:50,089
long as possible.

378
00:19:50,090 --> 00:19:53,070
What was the thing that your intern said
before? SS something?

379
00:19:53,290 --> 00:19:56,910
Yeah, sorry about that. She's only been
here a few weeks, and honestly, she was

380
00:19:56,910 --> 00:19:58,270
just trying to impress me.

381
00:19:58,690 --> 00:20:01,190
We're going down much more likely routes
right now.

382
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:10,460
I did the needle aspiration and the
second dose of Amselbactim seems to be

383
00:20:10,460 --> 00:20:14,820
working, but he's still non-compliant to
surgery and absolutely resistant when it

384
00:20:14,820 --> 00:20:16,380
comes to talking about any of this.

385
00:20:16,700 --> 00:20:19,960
You did the right thing, offering him a
less invasive solution.

386
00:20:21,060 --> 00:20:23,380
Let's see if it softened him up a bit to
want to talk now.

387
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:26,060
Have you ever seen anything like this
before?

388
00:20:28,100 --> 00:20:29,100
Nope.

389
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:32,519
Hi, Mason.

390
00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:33,520
I'm Dr. Walker.

391
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:35,040
Another doctor.

392
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,260
Call it the deluxe package.

393
00:20:38,140 --> 00:20:39,140
Can I sit?

394
00:20:44,100 --> 00:20:50,980
Now, I spoke to Dr. Coleman and Dr.
Matra,

395
00:20:51,020 --> 00:20:54,500
and I understand how important it is to
you to not have surgery. But you're here

396
00:20:54,500 --> 00:20:55,740
to talk me into it anyway.

397
00:20:55,980 --> 00:20:56,980
Not at all.

398
00:20:57,500 --> 00:21:02,040
But you need to understand, depending on
the circumstances, the infection itself

399
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,640
could cause the scarring we're all
trying to avoid.

400
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,600
The integrity of the tissue under your
jaw is important.

401
00:21:10,020 --> 00:21:14,980
It can cause tethering of the skin as it
heals, which can cause asymmetry or even

402
00:21:14,980 --> 00:21:18,400
disfigurement, which is why we need to
know if there's been prior trauma to

403
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:23,000
this area and what caused it. And your
facial scans clearly show it wasn't a

404
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:24,000
barbell.

405
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:30,140
I've seen this done with fists, hammers,
even ice picks. It was a massage gun,

406
00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,240
okay?

407
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,700
You take the guard off and...

408
00:21:35,950 --> 00:21:36,950
You get more precision.

409
00:21:37,450 --> 00:21:43,130
And that's to undo years of damage from
sleeping incorrectly, bad posture,

410
00:21:43,470 --> 00:21:45,490
chewing wrong.

411
00:21:46,910 --> 00:21:49,830
Yeah, that's exactly right.

412
00:21:50,030 --> 00:21:54,410
The blunt force creates calluses, and
when they heal, the jaw squares out.

413
00:21:54,870 --> 00:21:55,869
Wolf's law.

414
00:21:55,870 --> 00:21:56,870
I'm familiar.

415
00:21:57,090 --> 00:21:58,250
It's just science.

416
00:21:58,890 --> 00:21:59,890
Face shape.

417
00:22:00,270 --> 00:22:01,270
It's a myth.

418
00:22:01,550 --> 00:22:03,090
Can I see some of your research?

419
00:22:11,630 --> 00:22:12,810
It's what you're all looking for.

420
00:22:14,070 --> 00:22:16,010
Who? Women like you.

421
00:22:16,790 --> 00:22:21,750
I hate to break it to you, but women
like me tend to look for women like me.

422
00:22:23,410 --> 00:22:24,450
But I get your point.

423
00:22:24,830 --> 00:22:29,310
You know, 80% of women only date the top
10% of men.

424
00:22:29,610 --> 00:22:30,810
Sounds like a high bar.

425
00:22:31,130 --> 00:22:32,130
My last girlfriend?

426
00:22:33,370 --> 00:22:34,530
Total freaking Becky.

427
00:22:35,590 --> 00:22:36,690
She dumps me.

428
00:22:37,830 --> 00:22:39,890
Is that when this started? After the
breakup?

429
00:22:40,190 --> 00:22:41,190
Started.

430
00:22:41,770 --> 00:22:43,430
This is how life is.

431
00:22:44,850 --> 00:22:48,690
When you're attractive, everything's
easier. That's just a fact.

432
00:22:54,190 --> 00:22:55,210
Yeah, I think we're done here.

433
00:22:56,290 --> 00:22:57,290
Thanks for the chat.

434
00:23:01,130 --> 00:23:04,490
Dr. Matos, can I pick your brain for a
minute? If you can wait an hour, I've

435
00:23:04,490 --> 00:23:05,349
got a procedure.

436
00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:07,530
Please. The patient's 11 years old.

437
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,680
I'm thinking cardioembolic TIAs.

438
00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,660
There's no vegetation on the valves.

439
00:23:14,420 --> 00:23:17,040
EKG is totally normal, not even
arrhythmias.

440
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,200
Plus, the head CT is normal. We are
redoing that right now.

441
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:25,300
I'm sorry, Dr. Larson. I have a patient
waiting for me, and you're grasping at

442
00:23:25,300 --> 00:23:26,300
straws.

443
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,640
CT is negative.

444
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,720
Hey, SSPE.

445
00:23:37,450 --> 00:23:38,450
That's what you said, right?

446
00:23:38,630 --> 00:23:39,930
There are so many of them. Just tell me.

447
00:23:40,430 --> 00:23:43,210
Okay? Tell me right now my daughter
doesn't have this. We can't.

448
00:23:43,870 --> 00:23:46,410
But we really don't know anything for
sure.

449
00:23:46,690 --> 00:23:49,250
Hey, sorry. The line of the cafeteria
was bananas.

450
00:23:49,610 --> 00:23:50,610
Hey!

451
00:23:50,790 --> 00:23:52,050
You did this! What?

452
00:23:52,870 --> 00:23:53,870
You killed her!

453
00:23:54,190 --> 00:23:55,350
Hey! Security!

454
00:23:55,590 --> 00:23:56,590
Stop! Stop!

455
00:23:56,650 --> 00:23:59,450
Hey! She died? No! Not yet!

456
00:23:59,650 --> 00:24:01,990
Stop! Stop! Get off me! Stop it now!

457
00:24:05,410 --> 00:24:06,570
It's fine. We got this.

458
00:24:08,699 --> 00:24:10,620
I'm fine. Yeah, you're fine, Kenny.

459
00:24:10,940 --> 00:24:11,980
Yeah, you're just fine!

460
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,800
It's kind of a sore subject in the
family, you know?

461
00:24:21,740 --> 00:24:24,060
But I've done my own research.

462
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:26,140
I've read up on all the issues.

463
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,180
Natural immunity is better than vaccine
antibodies.

464
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:34,340
And these pharmaceutical companies, they
don't want you to know this, but...

465
00:24:34,760 --> 00:24:38,980
Those vaccines aren't even 100%
effective. No, they're not. But before

466
00:24:38,980 --> 00:24:42,100
the vaccine, the measles killed 2
million people a year. That's the point.

467
00:24:42,700 --> 00:24:46,380
Vaccines are highly effective, and
they're also a social contract that we

468
00:24:46,380 --> 00:24:51,060
make to protect the weakest among us,
our most vulnerable, in this case, our

469
00:24:51,060 --> 00:24:52,060
babies.

470
00:24:52,360 --> 00:24:55,380
Hazel probably got it from somebody who
chose not to be vaccinated.

471
00:24:55,860 --> 00:25:00,100
I get that. I do. But when Hazel got
sick...

472
00:25:00,570 --> 00:25:05,210
We isolated her. I'm sure you did, but
the incubation period for measles is 14

473
00:25:05,210 --> 00:25:08,530
days. Hazel would have been contagious
well before she had symptoms.

474
00:25:08,930 --> 00:25:10,070
But she got better.

475
00:25:10,790 --> 00:25:13,650
They both did. So why is this happening
now?

476
00:25:14,490 --> 00:25:16,730
SSPE can lie dormant for up to 30 years.

477
00:25:17,030 --> 00:25:18,870
So you're saying my daughter could get
this too?

478
00:25:22,570 --> 00:25:23,570
Yes.

479
00:25:23,890 --> 00:25:28,790
If this is SSPE, you're telling me that
there's nothing that you could do?

480
00:25:29,420 --> 00:25:30,420
I'm sorry.

481
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:31,480
No.

482
00:25:41,220 --> 00:25:42,460
Two and a half hours?

483
00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:47,380
I am so sorry. There was this guy that
was giving a speech that was way too

484
00:25:47,380 --> 00:25:49,800
long to honor my stepmom, and he asked
me to say something.

485
00:25:50,020 --> 00:25:53,360
I hope you enjoyed it, because that is
the last time I give you the benefit of

486
00:25:53,360 --> 00:25:54,360
any doubt.

487
00:25:55,820 --> 00:25:56,820
Go. Change.

488
00:25:57,340 --> 00:25:58,720
Help Nikki collect blood cultures.

489
00:26:00,700 --> 00:26:01,700
Oh, my stepmom.

490
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:03,140
She asked me to send her regards.

491
00:26:04,100 --> 00:26:07,920
I mean, you wouldn't remember, but you
two knew each other pretty well a few

492
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:08,920
years back.

493
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,600
She's a big fan.

494
00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,060
Don't tell me you're checking on me
again.

495
00:26:20,360 --> 00:26:23,060
We told you this will require constant
monitoring.

496
00:26:23,540 --> 00:26:25,020
I get it, but every 20 minutes?

497
00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:26,560
It's starting to spread.

498
00:26:27,020 --> 00:26:28,120
I thought you said it was getting
better.

499
00:26:30,700 --> 00:26:33,380
I feel crepitus. Call the OR?

500
00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:37,180
Stat. No. I told you I'm not doing
surgery.

501
00:26:37,380 --> 00:26:39,020
Okay, it can't wait any longer, Mason.

502
00:26:39,460 --> 00:26:41,160
The infection's spreading too fast.

503
00:26:41,460 --> 00:26:42,460
I don't care.

504
00:26:42,500 --> 00:26:46,700
Just try something else. It is too late,
Mason. You have flesh-eating bacteria.

505
00:26:46,980 --> 00:26:47,980
Do you understand?

506
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:49,880
This will kill you. I don't believe you.

507
00:26:52,140 --> 00:26:54,040
This is how serious it is.

508
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,620
Okay. Okay, I'll do it.

509
00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,840
Just please, can you bring in a plastic
surgeon? You can do that, right?

510
00:27:08,900 --> 00:27:10,520
She's negative for Lefora now.

511
00:27:10,820 --> 00:27:12,280
And she's deteriorating.

512
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:14,400
We're running out of ideas.

513
00:27:14,740 --> 00:27:19,720
It feels like it's time to... Amy.

514
00:27:24,430 --> 00:27:26,330
Like, it's time for the biopsy.

515
00:27:26,590 --> 00:27:31,470
I don't like it, but I... High fever,
confusion, delirium, myoclinus. What

516
00:27:31,470 --> 00:27:32,670
about toxoplasmosis?

517
00:27:36,410 --> 00:27:37,490
Do you have a cat?

518
00:27:38,530 --> 00:27:40,170
What? A cat.

519
00:27:41,070 --> 00:27:42,070
No.

520
00:27:42,370 --> 00:27:46,450
There's a rare infection called
toxoplasmosis. It can come from cat

521
00:27:46,450 --> 00:27:47,409
litter boxes.

522
00:27:47,410 --> 00:27:50,610
Well, she was over at Jocelyn's place
last week. Doesn't she have a cat? I

523
00:27:50,610 --> 00:27:52,930
think so. That could be what's causing
this.

524
00:27:53,310 --> 00:27:54,610
If it is, it's good news.

525
00:27:54,810 --> 00:27:56,730
Great. What do we do?

526
00:27:56,950 --> 00:27:58,090
It's a simple blood test.

527
00:27:58,370 --> 00:27:59,990
We'll make sure the lab rushes the
results.

528
00:28:00,330 --> 00:28:01,670
We can have them within the hour.

529
00:28:07,630 --> 00:28:08,630
Where's Dr. Coleman?

530
00:28:09,190 --> 00:28:10,430
Good morning, Dr. Larson.

531
00:28:11,210 --> 00:28:14,270
I think he's still in the on-call room.
He crashed there last night.

532
00:28:16,290 --> 00:28:20,150
Dr. Coleman, you are... Oh, my God.

533
00:28:20,910 --> 00:28:21,910
TJ?

534
00:28:22,219 --> 00:28:24,280
TJ, hey, wake up.

535
00:28:24,580 --> 00:28:25,580
Wake up.

536
00:28:29,260 --> 00:28:31,060
Hey, it's Amy. It's Amy.

537
00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,960
I keep

538
00:28:36,960 --> 00:28:46,080
thinking

539
00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,420
what I could have done differently.

540
00:28:47,940 --> 00:28:50,320
His denial was too strong, Sonia.

541
00:28:51,850 --> 00:28:52,930
We did what we could.

542
00:28:55,070 --> 00:28:57,230
Debreeding this area of necrotic tissue
now.

543
00:29:06,910 --> 00:29:08,550
Dr. Coleman, irrigate here.

544
00:29:08,830 --> 00:29:11,130
I want this field clear before we go any
further.

545
00:29:21,290 --> 00:29:22,310
Give me the bone cutters.

546
00:29:23,550 --> 00:29:25,070
How far does the infection go?

547
00:29:25,330 --> 00:29:26,490
He's going to lose half his jaw.

548
00:29:40,110 --> 00:29:43,530
The extent of the damage is worse than
we anticipated, but we were able to

549
00:29:43,530 --> 00:29:46,470
clear the infection, which means there
won't be any additional tissue loss.

550
00:29:48,390 --> 00:29:49,570
What will it look like?

551
00:29:51,390 --> 00:29:55,490
The advancements in facial
reconstruction have been incredible over

552
00:29:55,490 --> 00:29:59,430
the last few years. It'll take some
time, but we'll create a treatment plan.

553
00:29:59,710 --> 00:30:01,730
Time? How much?

554
00:30:07,050 --> 00:30:08,050
A year.

555
00:30:08,450 --> 00:30:13,130
Maybe two. Two years to recover from a
surgery?

556
00:30:13,610 --> 00:30:16,050
It's not just one surgery, Mason.

557
00:30:16,910 --> 00:30:17,910
How many?

558
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:22,520
the truth.

559
00:30:22,900 --> 00:30:24,200
It'll likely be dozens.

560
00:30:27,900 --> 00:30:31,580
I just want to go back to the way I
looked before.

561
00:30:43,020 --> 00:30:47,820
Unfortunately, the toxoplasmosis test
came back negative. Are you sure?

562
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,120
We are.

563
00:30:52,590 --> 00:30:53,590
So now what?

564
00:30:54,350 --> 00:30:56,070
It's time for the brain biopsy.

565
00:30:56,810 --> 00:31:00,690
Does that mean you have to... Yes, we
will take a small bit of brain tissue.

566
00:31:04,210 --> 00:31:05,990
And what will that tell us?

567
00:31:06,190 --> 00:31:09,910
We have eliminated every possible
diagnosis except for two.

568
00:31:10,570 --> 00:31:15,790
The first is an idiopathic encephalitis,
which would resolve with immunotherapy.

569
00:31:18,690 --> 00:31:19,690
And the other?

570
00:31:20,010 --> 00:31:21,070
The SSP.

571
00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:26,180
Which will kill her.

572
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:29,800
Slowly, in the most horrible way
possible.

573
00:31:30,860 --> 00:31:31,860
James.

574
00:31:32,860 --> 00:31:33,860
Sorry.

575
00:31:36,500 --> 00:31:38,620
I can't understand what you're saying,
Michael.

576
00:31:39,880 --> 00:31:40,880
This test.

577
00:31:41,980 --> 00:31:46,360
You're presenting it like it's 50-50,
but what is it really? If she did have

578
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:49,580
measles as a child, SSPE is far more
likely.

579
00:31:50,220 --> 00:31:52,360
But there's still a chance it's not.

580
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:56,080
Oh, my God.

581
00:31:57,820 --> 00:31:59,140
Oh, my God, oh, my God.

582
00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:06,460
If you'll excuse me for a moment.

583
00:32:14,220 --> 00:32:15,300
What happened in there?

584
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:16,640
Nothing.

585
00:32:16,740 --> 00:32:19,660
You don't need to talk me off the ledge.
Well, I'm not here to do that.

586
00:32:20,350 --> 00:32:21,550
Let go. I'm fine.

587
00:32:22,290 --> 00:32:26,270
Sometimes you seem to forget I'm chief
of medicine, and one of my residents

588
00:32:26,270 --> 00:32:29,390
just ran out in front of a patient's
family, so you need to tell me what's

589
00:32:29,390 --> 00:32:30,390
going on.

590
00:32:32,190 --> 00:32:34,950
I had a memory of the night Danny died.

591
00:32:36,870 --> 00:32:37,870
And the funeral.

592
00:32:38,910 --> 00:32:44,730
And it's just... This is exactly what I
was worried about with you coming back.

593
00:32:44,910 --> 00:32:49,370
It wouldn't matter, Michael. These
memories could happen anywhere. No, Amy.

594
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,800
This case is triggering you. That is
what's making these memories come up.

595
00:32:53,940 --> 00:32:57,400
Well, you're just going to have to deal
with that because I'm not going home to

596
00:32:57,400 --> 00:33:00,960
stare at the wall and wait to heal.
Right, right. So we're back to that.

597
00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:05,740
I am still the best doctor in this
department and everyone knows it. So

598
00:33:05,740 --> 00:33:08,560
what is this? I am trying to figure that
out myself.

599
00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,760
Well, stop figuring and let me do my
job.

600
00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:18,480
Did I hurt you?

601
00:33:19,850 --> 00:33:20,850
No.

602
00:33:20,930 --> 00:33:22,930
But clearly, you need to talk to
somebody.

603
00:33:23,830 --> 00:33:26,710
I know I freaked you out, but it was
just a nightmare.

604
00:33:27,590 --> 00:33:29,250
This is your life, TJ.

605
00:33:29,870 --> 00:33:32,590
Okay? It's not some mission that needs
to be accomplished. The hell do you know

606
00:33:32,590 --> 00:33:33,590
about my missions?

607
00:33:34,970 --> 00:33:35,970
You're right. I don't know.

608
00:33:36,690 --> 00:33:39,090
All the more reason for you to get some
help. I don't need them.

609
00:33:39,330 --> 00:33:40,910
Look at what's happening to you, TJ.

610
00:33:41,910 --> 00:33:45,110
Everything you are bottling up inside,
it's going to find a way to come out.

611
00:33:45,970 --> 00:33:46,970
It always does.

612
00:33:53,770 --> 00:33:54,770
I'll think about it.

613
00:33:56,030 --> 00:34:02,010
Okay. Because I really don't want to
hear you say, it's all good, again.

614
00:34:04,150 --> 00:34:05,150
I promise.

615
00:34:11,270 --> 00:34:17,429
Hey, who's doing Roxy Kettle's brain
biopsy?

616
00:34:41,610 --> 00:34:42,610
How is she?

617
00:34:43,050 --> 00:34:47,010
The biopsy went well. No complications,
and she's stable.

618
00:34:47,290 --> 00:34:48,288
Thank God.

619
00:34:48,290 --> 00:34:49,969
We sent the tissues up to the lab.

620
00:34:50,270 --> 00:34:54,510
The results can take up to 24 hours, but
we pushed them hard, so hopefully we'll

621
00:34:54,510 --> 00:34:55,870
hear something in under 12.

622
00:34:56,130 --> 00:34:59,410
Okay, so now... We wait.

623
00:35:06,410 --> 00:35:07,750
I can't believe my brother.

624
00:35:08,470 --> 00:35:09,710
Can I speak freely?

625
00:35:09,970 --> 00:35:15,270
No. As a doctor, just as somebody who's
lost a lot in her life.

626
00:35:17,150 --> 00:35:18,510
Yeah, yeah, go ahead.

627
00:35:21,370 --> 00:35:24,490
Family is a gift for only given ones.

628
00:35:25,850 --> 00:35:27,150
Even when they're at their worst.

629
00:35:27,750 --> 00:35:32,710
And especially when they still want the
best for us, we've got to try to find a

630
00:35:32,710 --> 00:35:33,710
way to hold on to them.

631
00:35:34,670 --> 00:35:35,730
I can't forgive them.

632
00:35:37,570 --> 00:35:38,570
So don't.

633
00:35:39,190 --> 00:35:40,190
Not yet.

634
00:35:40,930 --> 00:35:43,210
Maybe just let him be there for you.

635
00:35:45,170 --> 00:35:46,770
Because you're going to need each other.

636
00:35:48,490 --> 00:35:49,610
Trust me on this.

637
00:35:53,810 --> 00:35:54,810
Yeah.

638
00:36:11,180 --> 00:36:12,180
Hey, man.

639
00:36:12,940 --> 00:36:14,940
Been looking for you. Hey, ready to go?

640
00:36:15,380 --> 00:36:19,560
Yeah, I got some bad news, man. It turns
out my buddy is coming to the game

641
00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:21,360
tonight, so I don't have that extra
ticket with us.

642
00:36:21,820 --> 00:36:24,360
Oh, okay. But I did get you your own
seat.

643
00:36:25,060 --> 00:36:27,800
Furo's back, but... Sitting alone?

644
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,360
I was trying to get you something
closer.

645
00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:32,920
Right.

646
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:37,980
Yeah, uh... I think I'm just gonna hang
back and get ahead of tomorrow's work.

647
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:39,880
Thanks anyways.

648
00:36:40,430 --> 00:36:41,450
Yeah, sure.

649
00:36:41,810 --> 00:36:43,330
Brain check. Dr. Barker.

650
00:36:46,830 --> 00:36:47,830
Catch you tomorrow.

651
00:36:55,130 --> 00:36:57,310
You know what we've been dealing with
today.

652
00:36:57,790 --> 00:36:59,450
With Roxy and her parents.

653
00:36:59,790 --> 00:37:01,150
Yeah, yeah. Pretty rough.

654
00:37:01,370 --> 00:37:02,930
Yeah, Kyle was on a rough one too.

655
00:37:04,250 --> 00:37:07,150
And do you know what didn't help me or
anyone?

656
00:37:07,990 --> 00:37:09,490
Was your lack of performance.

657
00:37:11,100 --> 00:37:15,060
Excuse me? I checked the specimen logs
from all the patient labs from earlier.

658
00:37:15,300 --> 00:37:19,520
Mrs. Gettleman, Mr. Wright, Ms. Spahr,
Kyle did them all. Yeah, yeah, we

659
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:20,198
swapped favors.

660
00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:21,198
They're not favors.

661
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,200
They're assignments.

662
00:37:22,740 --> 00:37:26,140
Yeah, but when you're on call. You
weren't on call. You were at a luncheon.

663
00:37:26,780 --> 00:37:30,780
I'm sorry. I didn't realize it was a big
deal. It's all a big deal.

664
00:37:31,420 --> 00:37:33,760
Being a doctor is a big deal.

665
00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:37,620
So, you'll stay late and finish the
handoff list.

666
00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,100
Oh no, I'm done with my list. No, not
just yours.

667
00:37:40,380 --> 00:37:41,380
Everyone's.

668
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:44,780
Yeah, I really wish I could.

669
00:37:45,960 --> 00:37:49,600
I'm just taking a few friends to a ball
game. They're already there. I can't

670
00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:52,740
text them the tickets. It's a whole
moving barcode thing.

671
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:59,980
Sorry to interrupt. I didn't realize you
were... I just need to sign off on Mrs.

672
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:01,120
Camillia's discharge.

673
00:38:03,569 --> 00:38:04,569
To be continued.

674
00:38:04,690 --> 00:38:06,250
Graham, we'll pick this up in the
morning.

675
00:38:27,610 --> 00:38:28,610
Hey, babe.

676
00:38:29,430 --> 00:38:30,430
I can't choose.

677
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:35,980
the father of our child based on what
college he went to or how chiseled his

678
00:38:35,980 --> 00:38:36,980
jawline is.

679
00:38:37,380 --> 00:38:38,880
We're not doing that, Gina.

680
00:38:40,260 --> 00:38:42,120
Yeah, we pretty much are.

681
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:45,740
So, let's go with your brother.

682
00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:55,800
Hey.

683
00:39:01,770 --> 00:39:03,410
I didn't mean to ambush you earlier.

684
00:39:03,630 --> 00:39:04,630
I know.

685
00:39:06,550 --> 00:39:08,190
TJ? Yes?

686
00:39:08,490 --> 00:39:09,690
Your leg's shaking.

687
00:39:10,970 --> 00:39:14,010
Oh, um, yeah, it does that sometimes.

688
00:39:14,650 --> 00:39:15,650
When?

689
00:39:16,110 --> 00:39:17,210
I don't know exactly.

690
00:39:19,310 --> 00:39:20,370
Clearly you're stressed.

691
00:39:20,870 --> 00:39:24,590
I have handled a lot more than this. I
know you have.

692
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:31,240
But I know you, and you always have a
plan, and this... Improvise, adapt,

693
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:32,520
overcome.

694
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,840
I'm sure that works in battle, but you
are not in battle right now.

695
00:39:37,200 --> 00:39:38,200
That was a joke.

696
00:39:38,420 --> 00:39:39,420
Oh.

697
00:39:40,340 --> 00:39:47,280
I had a memory of us, and I told you you
needed to see

698
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:48,280
somebody.

699
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:52,320
Oh, yeah, that was, um...

700
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:56,100
That was a few days before your
accident. I had a nightmare in the on

701
00:39:56,100 --> 00:39:59,660
-call room. It was a sleepwalking kind
of thing.

702
00:39:59,900 --> 00:40:01,220
And did you see someone?

703
00:40:01,700 --> 00:40:02,700
Yeah.

704
00:40:02,840 --> 00:40:06,320
Yeah, I saw a specialist, and I sleep
great now.

705
00:40:06,540 --> 00:40:07,540
No more nightmares.

706
00:40:10,240 --> 00:40:13,760
I know you're worried about me, and I
appreciate it.

707
00:40:14,820 --> 00:40:15,820
But trust me.

708
00:40:36,270 --> 00:40:37,270
Tough day.

709
00:40:37,730 --> 00:40:38,730
Yeah.

710
00:40:40,030 --> 00:40:41,510
Guess we got our wires crossed a bit.

711
00:40:43,650 --> 00:40:48,550
Maybe you need some space to process
this.

712
00:40:51,550 --> 00:40:53,050
Maybe just for tonight?

713
00:40:54,670 --> 00:40:55,970
Maybe I'll get some sleep that way.

714
00:40:57,390 --> 00:40:58,390
Yeah.

715
00:41:24,399 --> 00:41:25,120
I just

716
00:41:25,120 --> 00:41:32,040
checked in with the lab.

717
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,620
They're going to let me know as soon as
they have the results.

718
00:41:45,740 --> 00:41:47,060
Do you mind if I wait with you?

719
00:42:25,570 --> 00:42:26,770
This is Dr. Larson.

720
00:42:27,170 --> 00:42:28,590
We got Roxy's results.

721
00:42:29,230 --> 00:42:30,189
I'm sorry.

722
00:42:30,190 --> 00:42:31,430
It's not the news you wanted.
