It's just an hour.

Which really means
an hour and a half,

which means
by the time we get to Jason's,

- the party will be over.
- It's not a party.

It's four boys arguing
over who's gonna play

"Call of Duty's Warfare."

Meanwhile, you're gonna be
learning how to exercise

your First Amendment
rights.

- By waving signs at cars?
- Mm-hmm.

And it's "Call of Duty"...
Colon... "Modern Warfare."

Everyone who sees our signs
knows that they're not alone,

and when we have numbers,
we have a voice.

We are heard.

At least
someone's being heard.

This is democracy, Ethan...
Making a difference.

This is
how change happens.

Yeah, well,
change sucks.

It's 10:30. I will have you
at Jason's by 11:45, okay?

Ooh, I see a spot.

Really?

Why'd you let her in?

Because the idiot
would've smashed our car.

How about we go get
milkshakes instead, hmm?

But I spent three hours
making signs.

Ooh, there!
There's a spot!

Sweet.

Any hint of trouble,
we are leaving, got it?

Inspiring speech, Mom.
Very Vince Lombardi.

I saw his hologram.

Oh, here's your
very own wristband.

Solidarity!

Yeah!

Yes, they already did
the finger prick

and gave me the gloop.

It's a 50-gram
glucose solution.

It was gloop,
and it tasted awful.

Gloop wouldn't tell us if
you have gestational diabetes,

which is associated with
hypertension, preeclampsia,

preterm labor, and for the baby,
respiratory issues and obesity.

Before we buy
jumbo baby clothes,

let's get the test results,
okay?

Okay,
will you text me when...

Whoa.

What's this?

We know at least
two people have been shot,

but we have no information
on their status.

By all reports, the rally
in support of Prop 266...

That is less than a mile
from here.

...was quite peaceful despite the presence

But just about 20 minutes ago,
what witnesses described...

I have to go to the E.R.,
STAT.

The passenger opening fire.

9-year-old boy with multiple
gunshots to chest and abdomen.

He took three rounds of EPI,
still PEA.

Trauma Bay 6.
Checking ABCs.

Asher, taking over compressions.
Claire, assess wounds.

You're the mom?

- What's his name?
- Mason.

Mason, got it.

Entry wound left chest.

Right over his heart.

Emergency thoracotomy?

20 blade.

We'll take good care
of Mason,

but right now,
you need to go.

- I can't.
- Now.

Rib spreader.

We got a pumper.

I can't see a thing.
Suction.

Hole in right ventricle.
I got my finger on it.

That's stopped the bleed,

but we gotta get the heart
pumping normally again.

Urinary catheter.

Stick it in the hole,

inflate the balloon
inside the ventricle,

and occlude the hole.

And
we've got a regular heartbeat.

Red cells, platelets transfusions.
Let's get him to the O.R.

Very good, Dr. Browne.

Kid took one gunshot
to the head,

became unresponsive
en route.

Intubated him.

He's bradycardic.

Pupils are blown.

No response
to sternal rub.

And the kid's
leaking brain.

Glasgow Coma Scale...
3T.

One gram per kilo Mannitol,
50 milligrams per kilo Keppra.

Elevating head 30 degrees
and bagging down his CO2.

Alright, let's take him...
O.R. two.

*THE GOOD DOCTOR*
Season 04 Episode 06

Episode Title: "Waitingn"
Aired on: April 26, 2021

And we can now
confirm that the shooting victims

were young boys,
witnesses describing them

as both under 10 years of age.

According to accounts,
one was shot several times

in the chest and abdomen,

the other shot at least once
in the head.

The fact it was children who
were shot is devastating news.

And so we have
yet another day

in an otherwise peaceful
community erupting in violence,

the kind of atrocity
that has sadly become

all too commonplace.

And that only makes
this attack

even more tragic
and senseless.

We are awaiting updates
and will let you know

as soon as we have any...

Fixed
the liver laceration.

Let's get the spleen
out of there.

Suturing
the right ventricle.

Next up
is left ventriculostomy.

All that'll leave
is the bronchial injury,

the diaphragm tear,
the VSD,

and the hollow-viscous
bowel injury.

B.P.'s dropping fast.

We're gonna need every unit
of O-neg or compatible blood.

Do you have someone
in surgery?

N-No.

I'm just here
for a test.

- Mrs. Wilkie?
- What is it?

And Mrs. Bardo?
What happened?

Nothing. I just need you
to fill out these forms.

Forms?

Necessary evil.

Do you have copies
of your insurance cards?

Uh, no,
I must've left mine.

I work here in I.T.

I'll help them
with the forms.

Thank you.

This is not
a happy brain.

Let's clean out as much
as we can.

Scalp, hair,
skull fragments.

And let's not forget
bullet shrapnel.

Ultrasound.

I'm looking for
any deeper bullet fragments.

Brain's herniating.

CO2 is normal.

Is he storming?

Heart rate's
way too low.

We need to take off
his entire right skull.

Drill with B1 bit.

Uh, initial there.

And sign here.

Thank you...

Lea.

Lea.

I think
that's the other mom.

I'm Carina.

Were you

at the rally?

Yeah. I'm Taryn.

Mason's 9.

Ethan's 8 1/2.

They'll be fine.

I know it.

You're one of them.

Them?

Get away from me.

It is so sad
that people can't express

their views peacefully.

The right is so intolerant
of political differences,

any differences.

I think there's some
intolerances on both sides.

Oh, like there are good people
on both sides?

What if I told you I belong
to the NRA?

I'd think you were
saying that to make a point.

About five years ago,
my wife and I went

to a very trendy restaurant
in a very shady part of town,

and on our way back to the car
we were mugged at gunpoint.

The next day,
I bought us both handguns.

I'm a card-carrying member.

I voted for Trump.

Too soon.

I'm serious.

I liked his stand
on Israel.

But I've never
told anyone

because I'd be
absolutely vilified.

As you should be,
especially you.

Pooling up.
He's hypotensive.

Lactate's rising.

Okay,
crit's down to 17.

We could put him
into deep hypothermia.

No, the low temp would only
worsen his coagulopathy.

He just needs more blood. We've
used up most of the O-neg and A-neg

from the blood bank. Start
calling other hospitals now.

You actually
voted for Trump?

Once.

And then what?

You... You...
You suddenly discovered

he was exactly
who he said he was?

I don't feel like you want an answer.
I feel like you want an apology.

This kind of changes
how I feel about you.

What does that mean?

You're saying
you don't respect me?

We can't be friends
because of a vote?

It is more than a vote.

Yeah. It's a fundamental right
that I exercised.

This kind of changes
how I feel about you.

If I can't have
a political opinion

about the best way
to improve all our lives...

Do you think anybody's life
got better?

That's enough.

Are you okay?

The repairs
are almost finished.

We can be done with this
in two or three hours.

We have
just enough blood.

That's if we want to.

Mrs. Bardo?

What is it?

Uh, we fixed two holes
in your son's ventricles.

We've removed his spleen
and repaired his liver,

but he's still
in surgery.

Your son has lost
a lot of blood.

We're giving him
transfusions,

but... the blood loss may have
caused damage to his brain.

If his brain is fine,
then we should push on,

but if his brain
isn't fine,

then... continuing the surgery
could kill him.

Unfortunately,
we can't accurately assess

for brain function
in the O.R.,

so we would have to wake him
up and do a traditional neuro exam.

You need her
to decide that?

Why put that on her?

- You guys are the doct...
- Wake him up.

If you wake him up,
I can be there, right?

You can.

But he will be confused
and stressed.

His belly will still
have to be open...

My husband died in a
car accident two years ago.

I didn't get
to say goodbye.

This is not goodbye.

This decision
should not be based on...

Please.

Wake him up.

Okay.
Come with us.

Why haven't I
heard anything?

The brain looks
more relaxed now.

There are
a lot of clots.

Kellan play soccer?

I'm fine.

Two kids shot.
We all are.

You're not supposed
to be here.

I know.
I am so sorry.

Is the baby okay?
Did you get your test results?

No, but I'm fine.
The baby's fine.

How's the boy?

You can't be here,
and we can't tell you.

I'm sitting in a waiting room
with a terrified mother.

Somebody needs to tell her
he's being taken care of.

Mrs. Wilkie?
I'm Dr. Shaun Murphy...

Is my son okay?

Okay, we have
successfully removed

half of your son's skull
to reduce brain pressure.

We've removed blood clots,
bone chips,

and bullet fragments.

But we are still trying
to find the less accessible

and deeper chunks of
the bullet in his brain.

Can I see him?

Of course not.
He's in surgery.

We... just needed
to let you know his status.

I'm sorry.

Hey, Mason.

I need you
to follow my finger, okay?

Can you wiggle your toes
for me?

Your little piggies?

You're acing this test,
Mason.

Now can you squeeze
my fingers?

Just try
to make a fist.

Doesn't have to be hard,
just a little squeeze.

Okay, no, that's okay.
Hey, Mason, look at me.

You're gonna be okay,
pumpkin.

Everything's gonna be okay.

Hey.

There's an indentation

on a right M3
segment branch artery.

That suggests the presence
of a deeper fragment.

Nice catch.

Yes, but I'm not sure
how we get it out.

When was
Ethan's birthday?

Um, October.

It was
just the three of us.

We have a golden doodle
named Derber.

Ethan wanted to invite
a couple of friends over,

but I said no,
it wasn't safe.

He wanted two friends.

He has like 100 of them
and I said no to 2.

Feels like all Ethan and I
ever do now is fight.

Children don't need
their parents to be buddies.

They need limits,
structure.

You don't have kids,
do you?

He'll die hating me.

Taryn, you cannot think
like that.

We found the last
bullet fragment.

It's deep but stable,

so it is very unlikely to
cause further brain damage,

bleeds, or seizures.

We should leave it
where it is.

You want to leave a bullet
in my son's brain?

Removing it comes
with a high risk

of lacerating
key brain vessels.

You can trust them.

They're the best doctors
I've ever known.

Okay.

Leave it in.

Did you get
to see Mason?

They're doing
more tests.

But I know
he'll be fine.

He will.

Does Mason play
any sports?

Uh,

basketball.

Team captain.

Likes to be in charge.

So mature for his age.

When my husband died,

it was Mason
who kept me going.

Brought me coffee
every morning,

opened my curtains,

helped me
get out of bed.

I'm a single mom, too.

Helluva day to be one,
isn't it?

Mm.

When did you lose
your husband?

We divorced
two years ago.

But not amicably.

Divorced.

I know it's not the same,
but...

I buried my husband.

You lost him in
the worst possible way, yes.

But I doubt you also lost
half of your friends,

your self-respect,

and the love
of your son.

I doubt you ever had
to tell your son

that Daddy
was never coming home again.

Look,
I didn't mean to...

You figured
you know me.

You've experienced pain,

so you understand all the pain
everybody else has ever felt.

- I understand pain...
- Shut up.

Right. Someone disagrees with you
and you shut them up.

You couldn't let us wave
our little signs in peace?

You had to come
shout us down,

and when that didn't work,
you had to shoot us?!

Yes?
Yes?

You can go first.

Why?

I'm being polite.

It won't make any difference
who hears their news first.

We don't think
there is any brain damage.

We're gonna take him back
to the O.R. to finish the repairs.

Wonderful.
Thank you so much.

Of course.

We have to leave
Ethan's skull off

until his brain swelling
has gone down,

which could be a
couple of days from now.

Or months.

We've moved him
to intensive care.

You can see him now.

When he was a baby, I used
to love watching him sleep.

It was the only time he wasn't
bouncing off the walls.

The only time
I could just look at him.

When he was older,
if he caught me watching him,

he would say
that I was weird,

and...

I just told him
how beautiful he was.

And that only
made me weirder.

But he is

so beautiful.

His eyes moved.
They moved.

He's looking at me.
That's good, right?

Yes.

No, he's not looking
at you.

His eyes are deviating
to the right.

What does that...

He's squeezing my hand.

Ethan, honey,
Mommy's here.

How hard?
Is it getting firmer?

Yeah.

Ativan. Increase propofol, and
we need a C.T. and an E.E.G.

He is having
a focal seizure

which is originating
in the left side of the brain,

which wasn't the damaged side,
which is very strange.

The bullet fragment
must've migrated.

It was a mistake
to leave it in.

He's seizing.

This is exactly
what he said wouldn't happen

if we left the bullet in.

Exactly.

I'm sure he'll figure out
what to do, and...

Who do you have news for?

Ms. DiLallo?

Good news?

Oh, it's nothing.

It's okay for someone
to be happy.

I'm expecting.

And all's good.

I gave birth
on Christmas Eve.

All the nurses
were singing carols.

Kenny joked that
the only thing missing

were the three wise men.

It was hokey
and ridiculous.

But it was magical.

Ethan was
three weeks premature.

We were having
just one last fun weekend,

the two of us, and I guess
Ethan didn't like that idea,

so I gave birth in a motel
room 300 miles from my OB.

Left a really good tip
for housekeeping.

It's very strange.

I was wrong.

It's... very,
very strange.

No, you weren't.

The fragment's still stable
in location,

no severe compression on MCA,
no new bleeds.

That just means
we missed something else.

There.

Deep in
the left thalamus.

I wasn't wrong.

I wasn't wrong.

You were.

You missed it.

No.
No, I wasn't wrong.

I would've noticed
another fragment.

There.

There was nothing there
eight hours ago.

Okay, so,

it's just new
to this location,

which means it's moving.

And based
on its trajectory,

it's gonna cause
a lot more damage.

It's much deeper
than the other.

So we can't get to it.

We can't go through the water
drainage system of the boy's brain

because that would mean
having to puncture

the ventricular wall
at the thalamus,

and we can't follow the injury
pathway using MRI guidance

because the metal in the
bullet rules out the MRI.

- And we can't...
- Shaun, Shaun, just...

You are a neurosurgeon,
okay?

You will know
what I have missed.

You don't think
you missed anything?

No.

Then you didn't.

Okay, then...

Ethan is probably
going to die.

Okay.

This one's different,
huh?

Because he is a child?

Yeah, yeah,
because he's a child.

No.

I've lost children
before.

Shaun,
every parent has one job,

and that's to keep
their kid alive,

to keep them from
all the horrors in the world.

And maybe

because you can't
protect Ethan,

you think...

That's not rational.

No, it's...

It's not rational,
the price of parenthood.

But you know what?
It's worth it.

If it makes me
upset and irrational,

it doesn't sound like
it's worth it.

You don't mean that.

I came here to ask
for your surgical advice about Ethan,

and all you've given me
is emotional advice about me.

Yeah.

Because that's all I got.

Kellan started playing soccer
when he was 7.

He loved that jersey
so much.

Wore it to bed every night.
Wouldn't let us wash it.

Then he spilled grape juice
on it.

A big purple stain.

And I got angry at him.

I always get a little
like this with kids.

You know, I think
maybe Shaun and Lim

can handle it fine
without me.

If it was Kellan
in that ICU,

how would you feel if
his doctor bailed on him

because his kid had spilled
grape juice 10 years earlier?

Yeah,
it's brutal on you.

About a hundredth as brutal
as it is on them.

So, you agree with Biden
on every single issue?

No, of course not.

But I agree with him
on more than one.

How many?

Where's the line?

Every vote
is a compromise.

We support the things
we think are important,

and... rationalize
the things that aren't.

Unfortunately, compromise
has become a dirty word,

which is ironic since that's
the essence of democracy,

and the lack of compromise
is why I left home.

His left foot is cold.

It's pulseless.

I got a pulse here.

Something's happening
between here and you.

Good.

Nothing.

Good.

Nothing.

Nothing.

It's his popliteal artery.
He must've thrown a clot.

We have to fix this now
or he loses the leg at best.

Ethan's seizures were caused
by a different fragment

that migrated to the left side
of his brain.

We weren't wrong about leaving
the other fragment in.

So you weren't incompetent
about that,

just about completely missing
this other fragment?

Yes.

But the new fragment
isn't stable,

and will almost definitely
continue to cause damage.

So you'll remove it
as soon as possible.

It's too deep to remove.

Which means

you'll do what?

We'll keep him
on anti-seizure meds

and, uh,
we'll monitor him,

hope for the best.

Monitor?

An 8-year-old boy is dying
and you're gonna monitor him?

If this was your child,
you could live with that?

Taryn, they're doing
their... They're doing nothing!

Lea!
It's okay.

It's okay, Shaun.

You're a couple?

I made a decision
about my son's life

based on your opinion
of your boyfriend?

Taryn, I'm so sorry.

Isolating
popliteal artery.

Next?

Incise vessel transversely,

use Fogarty catheter
to complete the embolectomy,

confirm flow
with the angiogram.

How's our blood?

Maxing out on
pro-coagulants,

anti-hemophiliacs,
and recycling

every last drop
of cell saver suction.

And we're still down
to our last 100 CCs.

What about
other hospitals?

There was a multi-vehicle
crash on the 280.

Nobody has anything
to spare.

I'll just have to work
a little faster.

Removing catheter.

B.P.'s falling.

Damn it.

Catheter tore the artery.
Clamp and suction.

There's not enough blood.

His hematocrit is on
the floor. He's dying.

You got your test results
hours ago.

You need to go home.

I can't.

Mason is hanging on,

but we have used up
all the O-neg and A-neg blood.

We're having some medevacked
from L.A.

How long will that take?

Another couple of hours.

You don't think he'll last
that long.

We're hoping.

I'm A-negative.

Sometimes we can't.

Every parent has
an overwhelming need

to protect their child
from horrors.

It's the price
of parenthood.

Taryn donated twice
the typical amount of blood

and Mason needed
every drop of it.

It's gonna be
a long night.

Where are you going?

Yeah,
you should come with.

Where? Ever read
"Hansel and Gretel"?

That's what
you were reading?

I thought
you were doing research.

The scan showed no sign
that the fragment

tore major brain tissue,

and there are no
significant bleeds or clots

as it migrated,

which means
it didn't cut a new route.

It took a trail
that was already there.

Okay.
How is that helpful?

It weaved through CSF spaces
or sulci

in between
the brain parenchyma.

If so, it left us
some breadcrumbs...

Heme products staining.

...along the way, and we can
use a rigid 3-millimeter endoscope,

find the trail,
and take that trail

all the way to the bullet
without damaging the brain.

It's okay, it's decaf.

You shouldn't feel guilty
about being happy.

I didn't feel happy,
not right then.

I felt... scared.

For us?

And for me.

You two,
you're so different

and so... angry.

Hmm.

But you are so strong,

and I'm...

You don't think
you're strong?

No.

Not strong enough
for this.

This doesn't
usually happen.

This isn't supposed
to happen.

And the way
we've been coping with it

has nothing to do with
whether we're good parents.

Strength doesn't matter.
It's compassion.

And... the way
you've treated us

you're gonna be
a great mother.

Mason made it.

Thanks to Taryn.

Ethan made it.

Thanks to Park.

They're in the ICU.

They want to see
their moms.
