My, uh,
building is this way.

My destination is this way,
as well.

Really?
Yeah.

Is it the Thai grocer
or the comic-book store?

Well, yeah,
it's the comics.

Right.
That --
That's hot, yeah?

[ Laughs ]

You know, I should have said
Thai grocer.

Then you would have thought
I was an excellent Thai chef.

Yeah, but then we would have
gotten caught in a situation

where we had to
prove it.

And I have you over for dinner
one night,

and then there's empty
Thai containers in the garbage

and we're done before we've
even had a chance kind of thing?

[ Cellphone vibrates ]
I'm sorry, uh,
Charlie has Luke.

Actually,
it's my security system.

Just a second.

Okay.
Hello?

You're kidding.

Okay,
I'll be right there.

The alarm in my apartment's
going off,

so I just need to --

I-I'll come with you.
Yeah.
Okay.

**

[ Alarm blaring ]

Forget to close it?
I'm a surgeon.

I don't forget
to close things.

There used to be
a really gaudy statue there.

It's gone.
[ Keypad beeping ]

Hello?
[ Alarm stops ]

Oh, thank God.

That thing
could wake the dead.

Mom.

Oh, I have been meaning
to come and help pitch in

ever since you told me
that you and Charlie split.

A-And I'm gonna need
the alarm code.

Wait,
what are you doing?

Well, I-I thought

that everything
that belongs to Charlie

could just go
in those boxes.

Why?

Because the place
is a man cave.

We need to get it
looking like Alex again.

Mm-hmm.
Where's Luke?

Uh,
he is with Charlie.

Oh, and, uh, Mom,
this is Emmanuel.

Emmanuel, this is my mom,
Martha.

Lovely to meet you,
Martha.

Well, look at you --
already back up on that horse.

[ Chuckles ]

The apple
doesn't fall far.
Mother.

I should go.

Oh, no, no.
This can work out.

Look, I'll just go
and crash in the bedroom

while you two heat up,
and then when you're ready,

I'll just come out here
and scooch onto the couch.

Oh, my God,
Mom.

Stop.
Please, please, I beg you.

Okay,
I am so sorry.

Um...tomorrow.

I'll see you
tomorrow morning.

Okay?
Yeah.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

* Oh, I heard a lie

* So I told the truth

Are you cooking?

I wish Luke
was here.

He needs to taste
my special pancakes.

You may blossom
in grandmotherhood after all.

Oh, come on.

I made pancakes
for you kids.

Only if
you were still up,

and then I had to listen
to drunk life advice

from all of your unemployed
poet friends.

Did you know that most of those
guys are almost all dead now?

Well, you come in
like a hurricane.

Yes, well --
But it'll be worth it.

When I turn this place into
the palace that I never gave you

when you were
a little girl.

Okay, listen,
I know what you're trying to do,

but we haven't really
seen each other in years.

But we said
that's gonna change, right?

I've never been
the palace type.

No, you're not.

You're my brilliant
surgeon daughter.

You got that way
without any help from me.

So let me take
some of the pressure off.

Now.

Let me look after
my grandson.

Just while you're going through
this breakup thing.

Luke's in daycare
at the hospital.

Not today, he isn't.

Today, he's got adventures
with Grandma.

Are you sure
you're okay, Mom?

I'm clean
and serene.

Just celebrated
two years.

You still
going to meetings?

Like a girl scout.

I don't know.

Alex, honey.
[ Chuckles ] I got this.

**

Eat a pancake.

[ Siren wailing ]

Cassie,
you busy girl.

Your name's been on
half my surgeries.

I worked my ass off to earn
every one of those cases.

I'm sure you have.

Oh.

I mean,
thank you, Dr. Harris.

I hope things
are going well with you.

Mm.

Hey.
How'd everything go?

Maybe not.

Hi.
Hey.

Cassie, we've got a
consult in the ER. You
want to meet me there?

Yeah.
Got it.

Actually, I don't think
I need another coffee.

Yeah.
I'll see you on rounds.

Hi.

Um...

my mom's in town.

She's gonna take Luke
for a few hours today.

He's in daycare.
I signed him out.

You sure
that's a good idea?

[ Sighs ]
I'm trying to let her back in.

**

Hi.
How are you?

Swimming in surgeries.

Don't get me wrong,
I love it.

You didn't have anything to do
with these, did you?

Are you working
with Dr. Harris today?

I am. Why?

Well, I need to appoint
an Interim Chief.

Dr. Harris ran a tight ship
before his accident.

Have you heard why he didn't
reclaim his position

after he recovered?

No.

And I can't report on people
for you.

Do you want to be liked,
or do you want to be respected?

Hmm,
I'll take both, please.

[ Scoffs ]

You know, Cassie,
you're on the fast track

to being named
Chief Resident.

Oh.
That's good.

And some jobs
require making hard choices

and saying things
that people don't want to hear.

You mean like your decision
to shut down the ER

and remove Dr. Bell
from Chief of Surgery?

A hospital
isn't a place for someone

who can't separate the personal
from the professional.

So.
Dr. Harris.

Is he
my new Chief?

He's definitely
unorthodox.

Like, um...
Jackson Pollock.

A-A surgeon
who's like Jackson Pollock?

Say more things.

Uh, unconventional
but brilliant.

Without
all the splatter.

I got to go.

[ Elevator bell dings ]

Morning.

Sleeping with
the enemy?

[ Cassie chuckles ]

You were the one who wanted to
keep things casual between us.

You think I'm jealous?

Your new boyfriend
is shutting down the ER today.

He's not my boyfriend,
and he's making

an unemotional decision
that benefits the hospital.

This was the best Level 1
trauma center in the city.

That's why
I came here.

That's why you came here.
[ Sighs ]

After today, we're only
doing electives, so congrats.

All your cozying up

will make you
Chief Resident of Tummy Tucks.

I'm not jealous,
Cassie.

I'm pissed off.

And you're feeling better,

which is a good indication
the drug is working.

I walked all the way
to the hospital today.

That's a very good sign.

Kelly Clarkson
blaring in my iPod.

Which is
a less good sign...

of your questionable taste
in music.

[ Sighs ]

I never thought walking would be
the marker for a good day.

Baby steps
to a full recovery.
You think so?

Let's just say
I'm optimistic

that we're gonna see
great results today.

From your lips
to God's ears.

[ Chuckles ]

Although,
if I get those good results,

I don't know
who I'm gonna share 'em with.

What do you mean?

Well...

my parents pretty much
abandoned me when I came out.

Violet's gone.

You know, some of the women
in the study --

they've got
really little kids.

And sometimes I get this feeling
that it's like...

more important
that they live

because it actually matters
to someone else if they do.

Mnh-mnh.

All that matters
is that you all live.

And you matter
to me.

**

Wow. They are really
taking apart your ER.

I'm tentatively positive.
Can't afford not to be.

Still paying
spousal support, huh?

Two mortgages.
Tutors. Rep Hockey.

Then long live
Urgent Care.
Uh-huh.

Where's Dawn?
I haven't seen her today.

Oh.

After she was unceremoniously
relieved of Chief of Surgery,

she decided
that she needed a spa day,

but when she called...

I heard
slot machines.

Ooh.

So. Here's the deal today,
guys.

We will be rerouting ambulances
to Mississauga Memorial

and we will be a walk-in until
we close the doors tonight.

Awesome.

So, here you go.
Bed number 4.

Guy broke his
"punny bone."

Seriously,
he's nonstop hilarity.

Charlie:
I can't wait.

[ Siren wailing ]

Knock, knock.

Who's there?

Orange.
Orange who?

Orange you glad
you didn't see...

banana?

[ Sighs ]

I don't want to jinx the study,
but I haven't felt this good

since those creepy
little cancer zombies

took over
my lymph nodes.

And you've had
an increase in appetite?

Well, I had a whole glass
of champagne

at my mom's birthday party
last night.
Mmm.

My,
that is a good sign.

I worry about
who got a placebo.

Like,
what if it's me?

But there is
no placebo.

It's a Phase 1/2 trial.

Just cheer up,
grumpy pants.

She's right.

We want to figure out
if the drug works, okay?

So you all
got the good stuff.

[ Chuckles ]

Uh, anybody else
increase in appetite?

Well...
I was waiting until you left

to break
these babies out!

Oh!

Those are terrible
for you.

Yeah, I'd be thrilled
to live long enough

for cheddar puffs
to kill me.

Well,
I'm sharing.

Well, then I will share four
seasons of "The Bachelorette."

Yeah!
Yes!

Ooh, okay.
I better get going.

Otherwise, I'm gonna get
sucked in and miss my surgery.

Hey,
Dr. Lin.
Yeah?

I just wanted
to say...

you guys
are the best.

When you're diagnosed
with the big effin' "C,"

you have
this team behind you

who's all, [Deep voice]
"We're gonna beat this."

[ Normal voice ] You're the only
one left still swinging.

**

True dat,
Doc.

You are
a bit of a superhero.

Hello, ladies.

Oh. The other half
of the dynamic duo.

[ Chuckles ] If you'll just
excuse us for a moment.

Dr. Lin,
I need to talk to you.

Okay.

Not too many cheddar puffs,
girls.

Get them.
Okay.

Gimme, gimme, gimme,
gimme, gimme, gimme.

[ Sighs ]
Stop!

The suspense
is killing me.

Okay.

Right.

Here we go.

All right.

Uh...

Spots on Laura's lungs
are getting smaller.

Maria's are shrinking.

Okay.
This is hopeful.

Shrinking, shrinking.

**

Bree.

Bree's spots
are growing.

Early days, though,
right?

Yeah.

**

This is
your first scan.

If you look at the diameter of
the same spots in your new scan,

most of them
are the same.

However,
some of them have grown,

like this one here.

But most are stable,
and stable is good.

But there has been
some growth.

So I'm not responding
to the study drug?

Not yet.
But --
Are any
of the other girls?

I'm sorry, Bree.

We can't divulge
that information.

It's okay.
It's fine.

I can tell they are.

**

I'm really sorry
for this pity party.

I'm really excited
for everybody else.

No,
you have every right.

You've been on a crazy ride
between the car accident

and the clot and --

Chemo to Violet leaving.
Yeah, it's --

It's pretty much
all sucked.

Well,
I'm not giving up.

I'm confident
that we are gonna get results,

and when we do, Kelly Clarkson
tickets are on me.

You are my kickass
guardian angel.

[ Chuckles, groans ]

Oh, my God.
Bree!

Bree.
[ Gasps ]

Okay, Bree, honey.
What's wrong?

Can you tell us
where it hurts?
[ Groans ]

Okay.

What are we dealing with here,
exactly?

He took his clothes off
in the lock-up.

It freaked out
a couple of drunk morons,

and they
roughed him up.

Yeah, you put your tooth
through your lip.

Gonna need a couple stitches.
How's your head, sir?

Head's right as rain.

What's your name?

They call me
The Nude Dude.

He calls himself
The Nude Dude.

No ID?
No pockets.

He's exercising his right
to be naked.

Which he doesn't have.
Which is fascist.

Hangs out with us a lot
as a result.

We dressed him
to get him over here.

Cuffed him.

Somehow he got the damn jumpsuit
off in the back of the squad.

Okay. Can we take the
cuffs off? I don't think
he's very dangerous.

Sir, I'm gonna ask you
to put on a gown for me.

Nah, I'm good,
thanks.

I'm gonna ask you
to put a gown on me for me, sir.

There are a lot of elderly
around here with weak hearts.

It's sad that we live in a world
where nudity is shocking.

But I appreciate you
getting my cuffs off.

You have compassion,

the most important quality
in a revolutionary.

Thanks.

For you,
I'll don the gown.

Hyuh!
Great.

Hey.
Dr. Hamza.

Yes.
You paged me.

We have a toddler with a nasty
bruise on his head, Bed 1.

Thought I'd take the extra
precaution just to be sure.

Luke?
Oh, no.

You know him?

Know him?
I'm his godfather.

Oh.
I'm his grandmother.

You're Alex's --
Please.

You can't tell her
that I'm here.

How do you like
working days?

I'm still trying
to flip my schedule.

I got pretty used to
working nights.

Some of my favorite animals
are nocturnal.

Like rats?

Owls.
Owls.

Yeah.
Big eyes, quiet wisdom.

That's my type.

You got to stop trying
to distract me, Dr. Reid.

I'm on my rounds.
Okay.

I would let you distract me at
a more appropriate time, though.

Oh, you would,
would you?

I would.
Yeah.

I'd whip up
some Pad Thai.

You know,
in the after owls.

In the after hours.

I'll think about it.

[ Chuckles ]

Uh, Peter Stone?

Hey, Doc.

Uh, what do you call
a mean pickle?

Uh, I don't know.
A sour dill.

No.
A prickle!

[ Laughter ]
Amazing.

A sour dill
was good, too.

But I-I wouldn't
quit your day job.

At least not until you've, uh --
you've fix this wing.

Charlie: Yeah,
what exactly happened?

I was mixing
a margarita.

The good news is,
I didn't spill a drop.

[ Chuckles ]

He's been given
morphine.

Well, it looks like
you've shattered your humerus.

I'm gonna, uh, need imaging
to confirm,

but you're probably
gonna need surgery.

Well, then, we'll both have
each other in stitches.

[ Laughs ]

Bree has an significant
small bowel obstruction.

That's common
with metastatic breast cancer.

What time
was her last blood thinner?

10 hours ago,

so she's due
for another one soon.

Good.

Let's hold off
on her next dose.

We'll do the surgery,
fix the bowel before it tears.

Oh, I don't think surgery's
our best option here.

Why do you say that?

Well,
she's a very sick,

immunocompromised
Stage 4 cancer patient

with a high risk
for a blood clot reoccurrence.

I just don't think
she can handle surgery.

Is this because you think
surgery makes her ineligible

to stay
in the breast-cancer study?

Surgery is just one option to
deal with a bowel obstruction.

You want to suck out
the contents with an NG tube.

Yep.
It's a partial obstruction.

NG tubes are slow,
and if the bowel perforates,

then everything's gonna spill
into her body

and we'll be dealing
with sepsis on top of that.

Maggie,
she's your patient.

I respect your opinion
on this --

Great.
If that's true, then let's --

We need to bring in
the Chief of Surgery.

Mr. Leffering.

We're at
a bit of a stalemate here.

Have you appointed
a new Chief of Surgery?

Uh, yes.

I have.

Who is it?

Dr. Harris.

Dr. Harris.

I'll be out
in a minute.

Let's multitask,
Charlie.

I'm naming you
the new Interim Chief.

Say what?

Effective immediately.

Yeah, thanks,
but no thanks.

I'm, uh --
Been down that road before.

Well,
according to my data,

you were the best Chief
this hospital's ever had.

Look, Dr. Reid's cancer trial
has a pressing issue,

and I'm not qualified
to make a decision on it.

Yeah, well, neither am I.
I'm a bone guy.

You're the former
Chief of Surgery

with a track record
of making sound decisions

for the patients
of this hospital.

Yeah,
don't be modest, Charlie.

This place
needs a leader like you.

Okay?

What --

Charlie.

So, you're the new
Interim Chief?
Uh, no.

I was just ambushed.
I haven't accepted anything.

Well, we need another
medical opinion on this.

We have a very sick patient
with a bowel obstruction.

I think it needs
to be tackled surgically.

And I think
we should hold off.

This patient
is in our clinical trial,

and the study rules state
that major surgery

will make her ineligible
to keep taking the trial drug.

A drug
that could save her life.

The results
have been questionable.

Okay, well, if it was me,
I'd think long-term,

give the patient some time
to respond to the drug.

I'm siding with Maggie.

[ Sighs ]

This is the wrong call,
Charlie.

We could lose this patient
unnecessarily.

Yes, but otherwise,
you're taking a very sick woman

away from a drug trial that
could potentially save her life.

Maggie's too personally involved
to see this clearly.

Bree's not responding well
to the study drug.

Can she even handle
going under the knife?

I believe
sepsis will kill her.

Alex, ultimately,
you can do what you want.

You're the surgeon.

Charlie.

Is this
about something else?

Do you think
this is personal?

Is it?

Alex, you asked me
for my medical opinion,

and I gave it.

**

If you'll excuse me,
I've got an elbow to fix.

[ Sighs ]

Shahir: Okay, well,
he didn't lose consciousness.

That's good.

No vomiting?
No.

I dropped him.

I lost my balance.

You tripped?
No, I --

I don't know.

Menopause, maybe.

He hasn't got a concussion,
has he?

Well,
any time you hit your head,

there's always some degree
of concussion.

Mm.
No, his reactions are perfect.

Just a bump.

If you tell Alex, she's gonna
think that I was drinking.

Because there have been times --
well, a lifetime ago --

that if
something like this happened,

it would have meant
that I was drinking.

Well, I can't treat Luke
and not tell her.

Oh, please.
I just got her back.

I'm trying to prove
that I've changed.

Well, I don't think
you're drunk.

But in my experience,
one lie leads to a web of lies.

It's a metaphor for when a fly
gets stuck into a spider's web,

which I don't want
to be.

[ Babbles ]

Okay, if you get Luke
out of here now...

then I won't
mention it.

Oh.
You'll never see us again.

But if there's vomiting,
I want to see him.

I got it.
Hey, buddy.

Should we go
get some ice cream?

Yeah.
Yeah.

Okay.
Come on.

Can I have a kiss?

Dev:
Dr. Miller.

In here.

There are men here saying

they're taking
the X-Ray machines back?

What? They're not supposed to
take those till next week!

So, what, we're back to good
old-fashioned country doctoring?

I'll be out
in a minute.

[ Scoffs ]

This emergency room's
closing?

No, we are transitioning
into an Urgent Care facility.

What's that?

It's when there's urgency
but it's not an emergency.

You mean
like a walk-in clinic?
No.

It has the hours
of a walk-in clinic

but the integrity
of an ER.

You don't strike me
as a walk-in clinic kind of guy.

Well, sometimes life doesn't
turn out the way you want it to,

and sometimes you got to take
care of your responsibilities

and put on
a pair pantaloons.

Ugh.

What's that?
Huh?

Oh, just a rash.

Happens a lot in my line
of work, what with the chafing.

It looks a lot more serious
than that.

Doc.
Mm-hmm?

If I was wearing pants,
you would have missed it.

If you were wearing pants,

you probably wouldn't have
gotten it in the first place.

I'm gonna have to run
some cultures.

Can I get a nurse
in here?

Okay, Cassie.

Once we get this last plate on,
we'll reattached the tip.

I can close
if you want.

Okay.
Hey, Doc.

You know, they say you can't
drink your problems away.

What if your problem is
you're thirsty?

Huh?

[ Chuckles ]

I'm not your wife.

What?

I said "knife."

You know, I, uh -- I got into
a fight with a mastodon.

I told him
it was irr-elephant.
[irrelevant]

[ Laughs ]
I heard you were
the new Interim Chief.

Yeah,
that's the rumor.

I didn't think
you'd want to be Chief again.

I don't.

Is it because
you find it too difficult

to be everyone's boss
and friend?

What did
the piece of bread say

when it walked
into the operating room?

Well, I just got tired
of saying things like,

"You need to take this
more seriously."

Nothing.

It was coma-toast.
[comatose]

And also making
life-and-death decisions

for really invested
surgeons.

Come on,
that's good!

I didn't want
to be Chief of Surgery anymore

because I wanted
a more balanced life with Alex.

What if -- What if you're
coma-toast was irr-elephant?

Are you thirsty, Doc?

Why was the coma-toast bread
thirsty?

[ Chuckles ]
Because he was irr-elephant.

Everything okay?

**

Um...

it's irr-elephant.

What's happening here?

NG tube is down.

Nothing yet.

Okay,
let's see what we've got.

Well, abdomen is not
distended at all.

Great.
So, as soon as it takes,

we'll feed the study drug
down the tube

and she won't miss
her trial dose.

Localized pain,
and her pressure's falling.

You think
it's a closed-loop obstruction?

Those things
go necrotic fast.

I want to get this patient
into surgery right away.

No, no, no. We just --
We give it more time.

I'm pulling rank.

No, you can't!
Excuse me.

I didn't put the stop on the
next dose of her blood thinners.

Maggie,
I told you to hold off.

Now she's
more of a bleed risk.

I thought we were avoiding
surgery, and I didn't want
her to clot again.

Okay, listen,
I want an anti-Xa test

to see
how thin her blood is.

Okay.

I'm scrubbing in.

And, Maggie,
I want you to assist,

but if you think you're
too close to this, you
need to page Dr. Williams.

My son
knows what to do.

He needs to wear his helmet,
Luke.

Are you here?
Is that you? Luke?

Can you follow through
with this?

Mrs. Reid.

Mrs. Reid.

Mrs. Reid,
why are you still here?

This is exactly
what I told you not to do.

I have a dog
who makes pancakes.

It's the strangest thing.

I'm sorry,
what?
They took my rings.

Can you help me?
They're thieves!

Mom,
what are you doing here?

It's not my fault.

Don't give the dog
the recipe.

Luke!

What happened to him?

Where are the police?
He's got a bump
on his forehead, Mom.

Yes, Alex, he's fine. I think
we have another problem here.
They took my rings, Alex.

Are you drunk?
How could you do this to us?

You know, it's my
fault. I should have known.
I should have known.

My gut said don't trust her
because she's totally untrust--

No.
Alex, just --
Mom.

Let's get someone
down here.
Mom. Here we go.

Listen to my voice.
You're gonna be just fine.

You're gonna be fine.

[ Sighs ]

She hasn't been drinking,
but I am quite concerned.

What do you think's
happening to her?

Just getting old,
baby.

Man on P.A.:
Dr. Reid to O.R. number 4.

Dr. Reid, O.R. number 4.
Go.

There isn't anything new I can
tell you right now, anyway.

I need to run
some more tests.
You sure?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.
I've got your mother.

And I'll get this little guy
back to daycare.

You take care
of your patient.

Go to Uncle Shahir.
Okay.

Come here, buddy.
Here we go.

Come here, Luke.
Okay.

Thank you.

I got this.

Maggie.

What have we got?

Okay,
I tested Bree's blood,

and I won't lie
to you --

Then don't.

If we reverse the blood thinners
and she throws another clot,

we're screwed.

Okay, so, we do the surgery
with lots of clamps and sponges,

and we do our best
to manage the bleed risk.

Yeah.

[ Sighs ]

Maggie,
I need you on your game.

100%.

I couldn't ask for her
to be in better hands.

**

Mrs. Stone.

Oh, Dr. Harris.

Um, your husband
is almost out of surgery,

and his arm
should be just fine.

Oh, good.

But I'm wondering
about him...personally.

Oh.

Has his behavior
been different lately?

Oh, yes, actually.

We haven't had this much fun
in years.

Has he always been
such a joker?

Oh, God, no.

He woke up one day
and started cracking jokes.

Yeah,
if you don't mind my asking,

what was Peter like
before all this?

Eight years ago, uh...

we walked
out of a cemetery...

leaving our son in a box
in the ground.

So...not great.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

Then when did
all the funny start?

[ Sighs ]

About three weeks ago.

He also joined
an improv troupe.

[ Laughs ]

Mrs. Stone...

I'd like to confer
with a neurosurgeon.

You want
to get his head checked

because he developed
a sense of humor?

I'm not worried,
'cause you're as tough as nails.

Okay, but if I say anything dumb
when I pass out,

you can't
put it YouTube.

I would never.

Are we still
on the road to recovery?

Well, I have a Google alert set
for Kelly's next tour, so...

**

Roxy.

Count backwards from 50
for me, hon.

50, 49, 48...50, 49, 48...

[ Sighs ]

[ Sighs ]

Hey.
What's this?

We're about the resect the bowel
of a Stage 4 BC Mets patient

with a partial blockage.

This is the patient
that was on blood thinners.

Yes.

Have you taken precautions to
ensure she's not a bleed risk?

Yes.

Okay.

**

So,
preliminary tests reveal

that Peter has a subarachnoid
hemorrhage in his brain,

which has been presenting
as humor.

So, let me
get this straight.

My sense of humor has been
caused by an aneurysm?

Well, it's not as uncommon
as you'd think.

And if I have
the surgery...

will I wake up
and not be funny anymore?

Well, you brain will go back
to the way it was before.

[ Chuckles ]

No.

No, I don't want
the surgery.

Peter, if you don't have
the surgery...

you'll die.

Dr. Harris is right.

Well, then, of course
he's gonna have the surgery.

Well, what will I tell
Elderprov?

We've got a show
next month.

I don't know.

But, Peter...
I can't lose you, too.

**

Running the bowel.
Nothing yet.

Ooh, it's all
over my shoes.

**

And here it is.

Wow.
That's -- That's dead.

Kelly.

Clamps.

Keep them coming.

Mm-hmm.

Clamps are holding.

Just a few small
controllable bleeds.

We still have to put
this whole thing back together.

Yeah.

[ Sighs ]

[ Monitors beeping rapidly ]
Pressure's dropping.

Blood thinners --
she's bleeding out.
Okay, sponges.
And keep them coming.

**

Alex:
Removing the bowel.

Maggie: Keep the fluids coming,
please.

I'm trying, but the blood gas
numbers are off the chart.

Whatever you guys are doing,
you need to hurry.

Maggie, I need you to clamp
the superior mesenteric artery.

I can't see anything.

I know we want
to stop the bleeding,

but if we clamp for too long,
we kill the entire bowel.

The clamp buys us time.
I'm only gonna be a few minutes.

Well, that's all you've got,
so...clamp.

Sutures.

Clamp in place.

Starting the anastomosis.

Blood pressure
is leveling off.
Great.

You okay?

I got too involved.

I risked her life.

She's gonna be fine,
Maggie.

How do you always keep
the emotion out of the OR?

I wish I was
a doctor robot.

No, you don't.

**

Peter: So, your surgeon's
down there

turning me back into
a broken man.

He's just picking up pieces
of a brain hemorrhage.

The rest
is up to you.

We've been through hell.

Lived in a house of gloom
for years.

And then this...

levity.

[ Chuckles ]

I thought
it was a gift.

Well, the human brain's
a mystery, but...

maybe this aneurysm
happened to...

remind you who you were,
where you were headed

before what happened
to your son.

I was so excited
to see him grow up.

He liked to sing.

He was shy, but I could hear him
in his room.

The levity.

It's slipping away.
I can feel it.

No. No.

It's still there.

Come on.
Tell me a joke.

Okay.

Uh...

a guy
walks into a bar...

[ Monitor beeping ]

You.

Me.

Your rash
is caused by a tick bite.

You have
Lyme disease.

Means I go great
with tequila?

It's serious.

It can cause
neurocognitive symptoms,

along with
muscle joint pains.

I need to get you on
an antibiotic drip right away.

Dev:
Hey. Hey!

You can't take that!

Hang on a sec.

Can I get
a doxycycline drip

for our fleshy friend
in Bed number 4?

What's going on here?

Zach,
Mrs. White is here again.

Heart palpitations?

And they're taking
the ECG machine.

Thomas.

Hi,
Mrs. White.

White: Hi.

How did you get here?

I'm with
the Uber now.

Right.
You're having some chest pains?

I'm just
a little thumpy again.

Right.

Okay,
I need this ECG machine.

Dr. Miller,
you seem upset.

I need
this ECG machine now.

These men are just doing
what I've asked them do, Zach.

Until the light outside
goes dark,

we are an ER
and we save lives, Thomas.

Zachary's been with me for
all four of my heart attacks.

That's right. I've been
with her for all four
of her heart attacks.

Man: Yeah!

You stick it
to 'em, Doc!
Who's that?

That is a little something
that you do not need to see.

Shahir.

Any news
on my mother?

I'm concerned
about her scan.

How so?

I don't want to speculate yet,
but dizziness, memory loss --

I'd like to admit her
for tests.

What do you think
it is?
I don't want
to speculate.

Shahir.
Alex.

Just tuck this away until
I have a conclusive diagnosis.

Okay.

Alex,
I'll do everything I can.

Thank you.

All right,
one course of antibiotics,

one orange jumpsuit.

Listen,
if you have any symptoms

like lack of sleep
or muscle pain, I think you --

Tell my prison guards
to send the ambulance

to a hospital
with a real ER doctor?

Look.

Do you have anyone
that's gonna bail you out?

Nah.
I'm a lone wolf.

Put on some pants.

Pants...

are prison.

No.

Prison is a prison.
Can't you compromise?

That's what you're doing,
and look at you.

You're a wreck.
I'm a wreck?

You're not
an Urgent Care guy!

You're a stallion!

And i-it's killing me
to watch you bend over, man.

Look, you put the pants
on, you walk out of here,
you're a free man.

This from a man
who can't even see the cage

that's getting built
around him.

**

Woman on P.A.:
Dr. Lin to ICU.

Dr. Lin to ICU.

Alex?

What's going on?

GCS of three.

**

She's got
no Plantar's reflex.

Oh, come on,
Bree.

Anything?

No.

She's in a coma.

**

Dr. Harris.

You're accepting
the chiefdom.

Yeah. What the hell?
Why not?

Fantastic news.

Thought I'd have more trouble
convincing you.

What can I tell you?

I, um --

I touched in
with several departments today.

I heard.

A bone doctor
who diagnoses brain bleeds.

You're a one-man band.

Yeah.

I forgot how much I enjoy
the big picture, you know?

Plus, you just put me
in a great position

to, um...
keep my eye on you.

Welcome aboard,
Chief Harris.

Shut the door
on your way out.

It's my study.

I did the surgery,

so it makes me responsible
for Bree's coma.

But a coma isn't dead.

No, but she is having
a functionary breakdown

of her reticular activating
system, so it's not great.

Yeah. [ Chuckles ]

Kind of like
sleeping off a bad bender.

Right.

Not even close.
Just --

Never mind.
Forget about it.

Go home.
You need sleep.

I'm not
gonna sleep anyway.

Well, I'd sure hope that anybody
who might be doing surgery on me

hadn't spent the previous night
in an uncomfortable chair.

[ Chuckles ]

Tests aren't something
to bunk in the hospital for.

If this turns out to be serious,
I might need you,

and you don't owe me
that many days.

Besides, I need to work
on my Pinterest page

so that I can fix up that
bachelor squat you call a condo.

I have eight beautiful lofts
for you to choose from.

Okay,
let me see.

**

I don't hate them.

You do know me.

Well,
you're my kid.

I've known you
since your first breath.

Mom,
you're gonna be okay.

Yeah.

Well, I am
pretty well-connected.

[ Chuckles ]

**

This is
the right choice.

It will
free up money.

More money
means more lives saved.

You weren't kidding
about not being liked.

[ Scoffs ]

People might dismiss us as young
and inexperienced, Cassie,

but...
we're the future.

Speaking of the future,
what are you doing later?

I could
buy you dinner.

This is the best.

Can't find it in pharmacies,
but you can take it all.

Where you gonna put it?

Doc, you just
leave that to me.

Okay. Just --

Now.

Let's go.

Come, come,
come, come.

I hope you get out
of the petting zoo.

I hope
the weather holds.

**

Zach,
is that a naked man

streaking across
the ambulance bay?

Yes, it is.

Chief.

I heard.

You can't make me
wear pants, either.

Okay.

I quit.

Enjoy Dawn's office.

* Deeper down we go

* Under leaves and snow

* Strangers to
the vernal season *

You, um, heard the one about
the guy who walked into a bar?

Maybe not the one about the guy
who walked into the bar

who hasn't called me
since college.

What do you want,
Charlie Harris?

Well, uh, "he" wanted to know
what you were drinking.

Well, that's not
a very funny joke.

No,
you're right.

I might be a little bit
funnied out today.

I had, um, this patient who
almost joked himself to death.

Huh.

I got
a funny doctor joke.

I'm just looking
for the fire exit.

Hey!

You called me.

I'll tell you what --

If I
make you laugh...

you get to come home
with me.

I really hope
this is funny, then.

A guy walks in to the doctor
complaining of a stiff neck.

Uh-huh.

Doctor takes one look at him
and prescribes...

Can I get two --
He prescribes...

Uh, yeah,
he prescribes Ibuprofen

every four to six hours

and alternating
hot and cold compresses.

Very good.

Doctor also says to the patient,
"It might be, you know,

a good idea if you refrain
from masturbating."

And the patient's
incredulous and looks
at the doctor and says,

"Why do I
have to do that?"

The doctor says,

"'Cause I'm still
examining you."

**

Check. Yeah. Please.

Thank you.

* You polish
every word that you say *

* Make 'em sound perfect

* How can I play
[ Knock on door ]

* A game with someone
cheating every round? *

* Fooling everybody we meet

* With a velvet handshake
and pearly white teeth *

* I'm covered in faux fur
from head to feet *

* Bad boys

* They always get in the way

* With all their good moves

* I really can't stay away

* Bad boys

* They always get in the way

* With all of their good moves

* I make the same mistakes

So, I try not
to let it get to me.

So you just throw yourself
into the work even further?

Yeah, but then the shift is over
and it kind of creeps back in.

And then you come home
to a kid every night.

I wouldn't know
how to do it.

Nah, see, he's the part that
makes everything worthwhile.

Hmm.

Thank you for this.

It is
just what I needed.

Yeah,
you're welcome.

Um, I-I wouldn't thank me,
though.

I'd thank
The Magical Buppa Thai.

* Nobody shuts me up or off

* I'm staring at a paper wall,
counting all the watermarks *

Guess we should, um...

call it a night.

[ Clears throat ]
Like another night.

Oh, yeah?

Just saying that I do
an excellent Mexican
takeout, as well.

* No one talks the way you talk,
nobody shuts me up or off *

I bet.

* I'm staring at a paper wall,
counting all the watermarks *

* Bad boys

* They always get in the way

Night, Manny.

Good night.

* I really can't stay away
