(BREATHING DEEPLY)

-Where am I?
-Grey House.

-I don't understand.
-Brian, we're trying
to help you.

-I need to go.
-Yeah, we're working on it.

-(GROANING) Now...
-No. Not now.

-Honey, honey, lie down.
-(SIGHS)

Where is the ambulance?

(SNORING)

-Martha? What are you doing?
-(GASPS)

Waiting for my briefing.
Waiting for my briefing.

-(CLEARS THROAT)
-You stayed here?

Yes! As commander-in-chief,
I need to be here
to lead my men to victory.

All right, well,
we're not invading a country.

We're just trying to help
these people get through
this winter storm.

And I am on the front lines,
standing shoulder-to-shoulder
with our men in...

-White?
-Blue.

Blue.

I've called all our
volunteer snowplowers,
and we don't have enough.

I mean, not nearly enough.

But you have to
clear the roads.

But I'm clearing these roads
so that our people
can get through,

not so that media can get here
to interview you.

The people of Middleton
are scared, trapped.

Their...
Their roads are impassable!

I need to do what I do best,
which is get
the message out there

that I'm on the job
and that everything
is going to be fine.

And for that to happen,
I need the media here. So...

What can I do?
I'm at your disposal.

You could call
Mayor Blankenship.

Ask him if he can
lend us his plows, his crews.
Uh, we have so few.

Blairsville has so many.
The storm totally missed them.

It's all just sitting there!
I mean, they're waiting
to be called into action.

What can I do?
I'm at your disposal.

(SIGHS)

(SIGHS) I got hold of my mom.

And?

We're just supposed
to stay put.

Should we tell him?

I don't even think he cares
whether we're stuck or not.

I don't think he wants
to go home.

ANTHONY:
It's really coming down.

(SIGHS) It is.

You worried?

Yeah.

Brandon?

I can't shake this feeling
that he's hurt,

and that he's going
to get hurt even more.

How?

I don't know.

Hey, he's a policeman.
He knows how to
take care of himself.

(CHUCKLES)

(SIGHS)

(CLICKING)

ABIGAIL: Lay still. You don't
want to hurt your back more.

I thought you left.

-I wouldn't leave you.
-Why?

Because I told you I wouldn't.
(SIGHS)

The power went out
on the whole block.

-(EXHALES SHARPLY)
It is treacherous out there.
-Oh.

My car slid right down
the driveway into the street.

Still no word from Brandon.
Derek sent him out a while ago
to get the kids.

-The kids?
-Yeah, they're still
at the library, waiting.

So we can't drive Brian
to the hospital?

Well, it's not going to do him
or us any good to get stuck
out there on the road.

-And if we can't get out...
-The ambulance can't get in.

-(GRUNTS)
-What? What's going on?

His blood pressure is low,
really low. He's dizzy,
light-headed, confused...

I think Brian's got
a slow bleed in the abdomen.
I think it's his spleen.

But he would have had to have
some trauma to the spleen
to cause internal bleeding.

-And he hasn't. Has he?
-No, they've been antiquing
and sightseeing.

(SCOFFS) That wouldn't do it.

(SIGHS) But you feel
that's what it is?

Without tests, blood work,
X-rays,

it's not definitive,
it's an educated guess
at best.

No, it's more than that.

I wish it were, but it's not.

You can't feel your way
into deciding if someone
requires surgery.

I'm not saying
you could or should.

What are you saying?

That just like your medical
skills, your instincts have
been honed over the years.

They're there as a tool,
to guide you.

I need a lab,
or go to the hospital.
An ambulance would be nice.

Trust yourself, Sam. I do.

(SIGHS) Well, it goes
without saying

we need to keep
both of them calm.

Us, too.

(WIND HOWLING)

No, thanks, I'm not hungry.

(GROANS)

(SIGHS)

Drink.

I don't need you disabled
and dehydrated.

(COUGHING)

Help's on the way.

(SIGHS) I feel like you're
a better liar than that.

Come on,
put your back into it.

What do we do now?

Um...

Wait for the
fire department to arrive
and hope they're all single?

(GROANING)

-Checking the weather?
-Yeah.

Luckily, it missed us
here in Blairsville,

-but Middleton's being
hammered.
-Mmm-hmm.

I'd say you're
spending the night.

I've got a hotel room,
but I just want to
get back there.

As soon as the road's clear,
I'm gonna head home.

Girlfriend?

Someday, maybe, yeah.
She's a little gun-shy.

Come off a bad relationship?

No, a perfect marriage.
She's a widow.

-She lives in Middleton?
-Yup.

Owns Bell, Book & Candle.

Cassie Nightingale?

She's renting that building.

She has a long lease.

Uh-huh. You and I know
leases can be broken.

What I know is that
that shop and that building

is a part of her,
and vice versa.

What I'm bringing you
into here,

you're not selling
houses anymore.

It's about packaging an idea.
Dreams, possibilities.

This mall will change the face
and the economic makeup
of Blairsville forever.

There will be no time
for girlfriends or wives
or friends or family,

-and you're gonna
need some help.
-I'm good.

Frankie is better. Best man
in the Chicago office.

Okay, I'll call Frankie.

No need. Frankie's going
to meet you here tonight.

Flew in yesterday
to go over numbers.

And if you can make
Frankie happy,

I'll be happy.

Well, then I better
make Frankie happy.

What's with the Internet?

-It's alive!
-(CHUCKLES)

Seriously, what are we
supposed to do?

Well, we are in a library.

-Read?
-Yeah.

You know, people have been
doing it for centuries.

Because they didn't
have the Internet.

Okay, so Shakespeare wouldn't
have written Romeo and Juliet
if he'd had the Internet?

No, he would have written it,

but everybody would have
waited for it to be made
into a movie

-and then streamed it.
-(SCOFFS) Okay,
so until this storm passes,

it looks like
we're on our own.

-It's going to be okay.
-Are you kidding me?

This is not Lord of the Flies,
it's an ice storm.

I just hope I don't die
of boredom.

And then there were two.

(CHUCKLES)

(INDISTINCT)

-Well?
-We found the cruiser,
but no Brandon.

There's blood
on the door handle

-and tracks leading away
from the vehicle.
-Oh, no!

If he's hurt
and he took off for help,

that means he's disoriented,
he's roaming around
in the cold.

-He could freeze
before we find him.
-We have to find him!

We will.

Right now, we've got
half the people in town

without cell service,
without power, all right?

The roads are practically
impassable. We need to
implement a temporary curfew.

People do not need to be
on the roads tonight.

But number three on my
10-part emergency plan says,
"Make your way to a shelter."

I know, but you haven't
allocated and identified which
buildings to use as shelters.

If we tell people
not to leave their homes
and they have no heat...

If you tell people to go
to shelters that don't exist,

and then they
get stuck in the snow
trying to get there...

-Excuse me.
I have to brief everyone.
-Oh!

Perhaps I should
address the troops.

-Why?
-I'm the Mayor.

I'm the Chief.

Everyone! Guys.

I give you the honorable
Mayor Martha Tinsdale.

Thank you. Officers, staff,

man I don't know
standing in the back
by the water cooler,

lend me your ears.

We have been hit
by a gigantic winter storm
and I am here to...

To...

To introduce
the Chief of Police,
who has an update for you.

All right, guys,
here's the plan.

-I don't understand.
-(SIGHS)

-Did Brian take a fall
yesterday?
-No.

Was he in an accident before
he came to Middleton?

No. What's going on?

I'm getting really worried.
Is Brian going to be okay?

Yes, he is. But we need
to keep an eye on him.

(SIGHS) No cell service.

Ah, me either. Landline?

-Dead.
-The storm.

Yeah, well, Derek knows
we need help.

Yeah, he just doesn't
know that Brian's condition
is getting worse.

(SIGHS)

-All right, what do you got?
-(SIGHS)

-Lip gloss...
-Mmm-hmm.

...toothbrush, uh,
four sticks of gum,
a box of mints and...

-A candy bar.
-(CHUCKLES)

What about you?

Come on, what do you have?

Twenty bucks and an iPod.

-No food?
-No, I stayed with
my dad last night.

And my mom
always does that stuff.

My dad and I, we eat
a lot of bachelor steak.

"Bachelor steak?"

(SIGHS) Yeah, cereal. No milk.

-Yum. (CHUCKLING)
-Hmm.

-Where do you think Nick is?
-(SIGHS) Who knows?

But he'll be back.
When he's hungry.

-He can eat the mints.
-No. We should save the mints.

Gum?

-One stick.
-(LAUGHING)

Here.

(SNAPS)

I'm keeping the bigger piece.

-Of course. As usual.
-(CHUCKLING)

(GROANS)

(COUGHS)

That's good. What is it?

I can't give you
my chef secrets.

(CHUCKLES)

You don't want Sam and I
to be together, do you?

You and Sam are fighting
the natural order of things.

And Cassie and Ryan?

There's a lot of fighting
the natural order of things
around here.

You hired and fired me
because you don't trust me.

Because you want
to control me.

People often want to control
the uncontrollable,

like me.

I trust you.

You didn't even trust me
to move some furniture
or change the menu.

Why is that?

(PANTING)

He's resting.

Sam's with him.

How are you holding up?

(SIGHS) I've had
better vacations.

You make plans and then...

-And then life happens.
-Exactly.

Brian's been under
so much stress at work

that I insisted
we get away from the city,
from everything,

and now look at us.

Lots of stress?

The only relief
he gets is running.

-Brian went running yesterday?
-Hmm. In the afternoon.

He came back early.
It was getting cold already.

Excuse me.

He went running
yesterday afternoon.

It was slick out
even before the storm hit.

-BOTH: He fell.
-But he didn't tell Eve.

Stubborn, manly,
ignored the pain.

I'm familiar with the type.

What are your instincts
telling you?

A small tear. That's why
the bleeding's so slow.

So he fell just hard enough
to hurt his spleen.

Brian needs
emergency surgery.

-(EXHALES) Thanks.
-Yep.

Well, I can start an IV,
get some fluids in him.

That'll buy us
and him some time.

I'm still not used to ordering
supplies myself. Those came
to the house by mistake.

-Oh, lucky mistake.
-Well, we're due
a little good luck.

We just gotta keep him stable
until some help gets here.

-Help is here.
-(CHUCKLES) More help.

What's going on?

(SIGHS)

You look very dashing
in that fire blanket.

You have sprinklers,
so why do you have
a fire blanket?

The sales guy looked like
George Clooney.

Ugh, it is so cold in here!

I know.

We still don't have power.

Which means we don't
have heat. (SIGHS)

Whoa, whoa, whoa!
You need to stay awake.

I'm just gonna close my eyes
for a minute.

-No.
-I'm cold and tired.

So am I, but you might
have a concussion.

-I should get back
to the station.
-You're not going anywhere,

and you're not gonna
close your eyes.

(RATTLING)

-Hey!
-Nick!

You're gonna bust me
for this?

-That's public property.
-I'm starved and I don't
have any change.

Well, we have gum.

You missed a spot.

-What?
-Upper right lip. Chocolate.

-I'm guessing you two didn't
have gum for dinner.
-Okay, fine.

-We should've shared.
-I can take care of myself.

-(RATTLING)
-NICK: Oh!

Victory.

I have to say, I would have
expected such selfish
behavior from him.

But you? Grace.

I have to say,
I'm disappointed.

Hey, Cassie, it's me.
It's, like, the fourth time
I've called.

I tried calling Grey House,
but I keep getting
a busy signal.

I hope you're okay.
I'm getting a little worried.

Call me, please.
I'm gonna head home
as soon as it clears.

Okay, bye.

WOMAN: Pardon me,
are you Ryan?

-Yeah.
-I'm Frankie.

Frankie?

Ben sent me. Mr. Jones.
I'm here to help.

You're Jones' best man
in Chicago.

-I am.
-Yeah.

And since we've got
some time, let's go over
some of the figures

from the mall project
that just don't add up.

Uh...

Uh, you've got something
better to do?

It's just that it's late.

Yeah, well,
you need to realize that Ben
doesn't keep regular hours,

and neither do I.

That affects me how?

I'm your new partner on this.

"Partner?"

-(CLICKS)
-(SOFTLY) Oh. Thanks.

(HYPERVENTILATING)

Eve?

I... I can't...
I can't breathe.

Okay, all right, Eve,
we're going to do
some breathing.

(SOBBING) Brian's gonna die.

-No. Sam's not going to let
that happen, are you?
-No.

He's bleeding. He's...

Your baby needs you
to stay calm and breathe.

I don't want
to lose my husband.

Sam's one of the best trauma
surgeons in the country.

He just moved here
and he's taking care of Brian,
okay?

How lucky is that?
Brian's in very good hands.

All right, now take
a deep breath in.

(BREATHING SHAKILY)

You can do better than that.
Come on.

Sam, why don't you
show her how it's done?

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

-Oh, look. See, he's even
worse than you are!
-(BOTH LAUGH)

Okay, all right, come on,
let's do this together, okay?

(BREATHING TOGETHER)

Yes, thank you.
Please keep me informed.

How's the situation
at Grey House?

Still can't get them
on the phone,

but we've got every plow
working to get through.

There was an accident
on the interstate,

so now all the Blairsville
snowplow drivers have to take
back roads to get to us.

It's taking a while.

But thank you for calling
the mayor of Blairsville.

Well, at least I didn't
have to see Darryl
and his smug face

-when I asked for his help.
-How does that guy keep
getting re-elected?

-I...
-(PHONE RINGING)

Mayor Tinsdale. Darryl!

I stand corrected.
Mayor Blankenship.
My apologies.

Yes. Yes.

No, I... Oh, yes, I know,
it was very...

Well, I wouldn't call it
"heroic," exactly.

Yes, I know that Blairsville
is the fifth largest city
in the state,

but thank you
for reminding me yet again.

(CLICKS)

Looks like we're having
phone trouble
at City Hall, too.

What if he calls back?

Ah, I feel like his line
may be dropped all night.

Another casualty of the storm.

(CHUCKLES)

-Eve, I'm cold.
-I'm here. I'm here.

Here.

(SOFTLY) He's getting worse.
I can't just stand here and
watch him bleed to death.

Sam!

For him to have
any chance at all,
I have to stop the bleeding.

And we need to get
Eve's consent.

No. Absolutely not.
How can you do surgery here?

I don't want to,
but if I can just get in there
and clamp off the leak,

-stop the bleeding...
-I don't want you to.

-Eve...
-No.

You are not operating
on my husband here.

An ambulance will arrive.

-Boy, I'm stuffed.
-(SCOFFS)

Chips, cookies,
two candy bars,
and I'm on my third soda.

You guys look hungry.
How's the gum?

-Great.
-Not very filling.

-I'm not going to beg.
-(SIGHS)

-(CRUNCHING)
-(SNIFFS)

So crunchy, so salty...

So good.

Okay, fine, I'll beg.
Please!

-(SIGHS)
-How much you got?

-What?
-Money. Cash.
Coins will also be accepted.

(SCOFFS)

You're seriously going
to take money from us?

Yeah. I was wrong,
this is Lord of the Flies.

See, I do read.
Pay up or starve.

-It's not worth it, Grace.
-(WHISPERING)
There's chocolate.

-Can you break a 20?
-Yup.

(SIGHS)

Where's my change?
You said you could break a 20.

I can, but I'm not going to.

I'm not gonna change my mind.

I know.

What would you do
if it was your husband
lying here?

I trust Sam.

-With your life?
-Absolutely.

With my husband's life?

Yes.

BRANDON: Well, in her defense,
you told her to keep me awake.

You never mentioned
keeping herself awake.

(CHUCKLES)

-You look better.
-Thanks.

-And worse.
-Excuse me?

Something's weighing
heavily on you.

I hate being stuck in here
when I know I'm needed
out there.

That's not what's really
got you worried.

How's your wife?

Tara.

She's away
working on her PhD, right?

Tara?

So, I've got
back-to-back appointments
with local retailers

who are very interested
in space in the mall.

-Great. Let me vet them.
-I've already made
the appointments.

-But I need to approve them.
-Says who?

Ben.

Frankie, I didn't
ask for help.

No, I was sent here
by your boss.

-My partner.
-I think he'd disagree
with that.

The way that I like to work
with all my clients

is that I respectfully steer
them in the right direction.

Hmm. Ben doesn't like to be
steered, and neither do I.

He'll never know.

-I'll tell him.
-Why?

Because when it comes
to business,
I tell my father everything.

Your father?

(SCOFFS)

(CLANGS)

-It's still coming down.
-Yeah.

Thank you, Captain Obvious.

What's wrong?

I'm stuck in a library with
you two and no Internet.

No, it's something else.

It's not.

You were in a much better mood
a couple of days ago.

-How could you tell?
-Anthony!

So what happened?

-Nothing.
-You're lying.

Well... You're just...

Your mom.

I heard that she was coming.
But she's not, is she?

And that's why you don't seem
to care if you're going home.

-Man, that stinks.
-I'm not you.

I'm just trying...

Just leave me alone, okay?

Ooh, it's cold!

-Hello? Come in? Anyone?
-(DOOR OPENS)

-I'm here.
-MARTHA: Hi, honey.

Do you have any idea
how hard it is to walk
from our home to here?

It's practically a whiteout.

Well, Sam did say
you need to do more cardio.

I don't think he meant
in a blizzard.
Why am I here?

I need you, Tom.

For the photo op?

No, no. I need you.
Here, with me.

-You're nervous?
-It's the first big test
of my leadership abilities.

And you're doing great.

Oh, you have to say that
because you're married to me.

I'm saying it
because it's true.

You are a born leader
and this town is lucky
to have you at the helm.

Oh...

-Follow me.
-Where are we going?

To the lost-and-found.
And let's hope somebody
lost a suit, preferably blue.

-Why?
-Because eventually
the cameras will be here

and I need you looking
like the man I married,

not the man I passed
hitch-hiking on
the interstate.

(BRIAN GROANS)

(SNIFFLES)
Is there any other way?

Yes. An ambulance
gets him to the hospital
and we do the surgery there,

but I'm afraid he's losing
too much blood.

I don't want him to die.

If we wait much longer,
there's a point of no return
for the body.

Do what you have to.

Both of you.

I don't know
what I'm going to find
when I open him up.

Hopefully I can cap off
the bleeder with a clamp

and they somehow
get an ambulance here
and get him to the hospital.

It'll buy him some time,
but not a lot.

-I'm going to need you.
-I'm here.

-You are, aren't you?
-(SIGHS)

Well, he can't afford
to lose any more blood.

Well, you're doing
what you need to do
to save his life.

If I haven't said it yet,
thanks.

-Thanks?
-For everything
that you've done so far,

and what you're about to do.
I'm glad you're here.

-Sam.
-Yeah?

They're here.

(SIREN WAILING)

An ambulance is here!

It's okay.

(SIGHS) It is.

MAN: You okay?

Steady?

(GRUNTING)

Do you want to ride with us,
Dr. Radford?

Yeah, I talked to the hospital
administrator, he knows
I'm coming to do the surgery.

-Roger that. Let's go.
-You heard him. Let's go.

Thanks.

-How we doing?
-BRIAN: Ah, that hurts.

(SIREN WAILING)

-Roads clear?
-The main ones.

Cassie?

Uh, ambulance just radioed
that they're at the hospital
and her guest is in surgery.

I suppose I'll have to thank
Darryl in my speech.

-You need to get out here!
-Just need a moment.

Martha Lorraine Tinsdale!
Get out here. Now.

(PEOPLE CLAMORING)

DARRYL: ...and I'll get
to all your questions,

but the main point here
to be made is that
we're going to be all right.

Blairsville, being
the better-prepared city,

we're here to help
our less-fortunate
neighbor sister city.

We have loaned the snowplows
and the crew necessary
to clear these streets

-and to aid in getting
a very sick man to hospital.
-(CAMERAS CLICKING)

Now, we're not through
this storm just yet,
but together, we'll get there.

I was only able to make it
in myself today
because of my M-RAP,

my Mine-Resistant
Ambush-Protected vehicle.

Picked it up for a song
at a military auction.

We're going to be all right.

Blairsville, being the larger,
and, well,
better-protected city...

We're here to help our
less fortunate neighbors...

WOMAN ON PA:
Janet to the nursing station,
Janet, nursing station.

Dr. Carey to Obstetrics,
Dr. Carey, Obstetrics.

-So, Brian's out of surgery.
-Oh, thank God!

They're giving him
a transfusion now to get
his blood and platelets up,

but after that
he'll be in recovery.

So he did injure his spleen?

No, once I got in there,
I was able to run some tests.

Turns out it was
hemolytic anemia.

That's, um, abnormal breakdown
of the red blood cells.
It causes the spleen to bleed.

-When can he leave?
-I was able to do
a laparoscopic procedure,

so he can leave the hospital
tomorrow, but I'd put off
travel for a few days.

-Do you have room?
-Absolutely.

-Can I see him?
-Yeah, the nurse is waiting
to take you back.

Thank you.
Thanks, both of you.

(BOTH SIGHING)

Phew!

WOMAN ON PA:
Dr. Carey to Obstetrics,
Dr. Carey, Obstetrics.

-Stephanie?
-Brandon!

I'm fine. It's just my back.
I slipped.

-I got you covered.
-Thanks.

Well...

BRANDON: Derek is on his way
to the library.

I slid off the road
and banged my head.

-Oh, do you need stitches?
-No. Abigail took care of me.

Um, but you were together?
How?

I walked away from my cruiser
and somehow ended up
at the bistro.

Um... Let's take a look.
Come on.

And you were at the bistro?

I told you,
I forgot something.

(INAUDIBLE)

DEREK: Hello?

-Anybody want a ride home?
-Get me out of here.

-Hey.
-Hey.

(SIGHS) Where's Brandon?
Is he okay?

-He had an accident,
but he's fine.
-(SIGHS)

-He's at the hospital.
-Take me there.

-That's not a good idea.
-What aren't you telling me?

Look, they're gonna
check him out

and then
they're gonna bring him
back down to the station.

Okay, so you take them
home and then you
take me to the station.

-(SIGHS)
-Let's go.

(SIGHS)

Well, look at you!

It's the miracle
of modern medicine.

But...

(SIGHS) I'm supposed
to stay off my feet
for a few days,

go see Sam and get checked out
before I come back to work.

As per doctor's orders,

I'm going to be leaving early
and coming in late.

No, you won't.

But this is a good start.

(SIGHS) This is gonna be fun.

For which one of us?

(DOOR CLOSES)

-Brandon.
-Hey.

I'm okay.
Just a little car accident,
bumped my head.

I'm as good as new.

I tried to call...
If I had called earlier
or if I had...

If you were there with me
when it happened?

What, you could have
stopped the accident?

Yes.

Look, there's risk in my job,
but there's risk in life.

It's not your responsibility
to keep me safe,

and it wasn't
your responsibility
to keep Dad safe.

We have to live our lives,
Grace. We have to...

You have to live yours,
and you have to trust me
to live mine.

I just don't want you
to get hurt.

Hey. I'm gonna be fine.
I promise.

There are lots of ways
to be hurt, Brandon.

(CELL PHONE RINGING)

-It's...
-Tara.

(RINGING CONTINUES)

(BEEPS)

Table for two, please.

I'll see if I can
squeeze you in.

No, I'll see if I can
squeeze you in.

You, off your feet.

-You're back.
-I am.

So, I hear you and Cassie
make a good team.

Well, we did last night.

-He's gonna be okay? Brian?
-(DOOR OPENS)

Yeah. He's gonna be fine.

-Cassie, I've been
looking for you!
-Martha!

-Oh, Cassie,
are you all right?
-Yes. I'm fine!

It's polite to reciprocate
and ask how others are.

Mmm, this is about
Mayor Blankenship's
news conference.

I saw it in the waiting room
at the hospital.

That was supposed to be
my press conference.

I have watched snow and sleet
and rain and everything else
hit Blairsville and miss us.

I have endured years of
watching that windbag of a man
steal the spotlight.

This was my moment, my...

My big moment,
and now, poof, it's gone!

Martha, you did so much more
than speak to the press.

You cleared the roads,
you kept people safe,

you worked with Derek
and his staff.

Now that is what people
will remember,

and that is what makes you
a great leader.

Even though it took place
here in Middleton,

that was Darryl's
press conference,
not your own.

I think you'll find that
when you're ready to talk,

your audience will be
anxiously awaiting to hear
what you have to share.

Oh!

Thanks.

-Oh, you got me pie!
-I did.

-And tea!
-I did.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That was an interesting
evening together.

Yeah, certainly not your
average Saturday night.

-I'm glad I was here.
-Me, too.

I'm just glad
I could help him.

You may not be done
helping people.

(CASSIE CHUCKLES)

(APPLAUSE)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Thank you.

As you all know,
Middleton was hit with
its worst storm in 20 years,

and I wanted to let everyone
know what we were doing

to ensure the safety
of all of our citizens,

and to give you an update
on the man rushed to hospital

who underwent
emergency surgery.

But first, I would like
to thank some people.

Middleton's newest resident,
Dr. Sam Radford.

(APPLAUSE)

Our Chief of Police,
Derek Sanders.

(APPLAUSE)

And, of course,
Mayor Blankenship and
the good people of Blairsville

for their thoughts,
their prayers
and their snowplows.

-(CHUCKLES)
-(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)

-(CAMERAS CLICKING)
-(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

-SAM: Is it wrong
that I enjoyed that?
-(CASSIE CHUCKLES)

SAM: The rush of
emergency surgery?

Mmm, you miss it?

I can't lie,
it's why I became a doctor.

You look very at home
in a hospital.

-Well, I thrive in chaos.
-(CHUCKLING)

-That can't be good.
-(CHUCKLES)
Oh, it was good for Brian.

-Well, you helped.
-Mmm.

-Our first medical
co-production.
-(LAUGHING)

The meeting of feelings
and facts.

-And trust.
-Lots of that.

So, I have to ask, why...

Why not take a job in a town
that has a hospital

where you can do this work
that you obviously love?

Well, I'm a single dad.

In New York, I had
housekeepers and doormen,

and it was just time
to put my son first.

Running an ER,
working in a hospital,

it's not exactly
family-friendly...

Not Nick-friendly.

Something had to give.
Turns out that something
was me.

-Tea?
-I thought you'd never ask.

-(BOTH CHUCKLE)
-CASSIE: Thanks.

Sir...

The door was open,
but no one was here.

I'm late, but I'm hoping that
my reservation is still good.

This is Grey House?

Linda.

Linda Wallace.

My ex-wife.

Hello, Sam.
