Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,830 --> 00:00:03,696
- Previously on The Resident...
- I hope it will be
2
00:00:03,716 --> 00:00:05,714
a comfort that Nic
3
00:00:05,865 --> 00:00:07,524
chose to be an organ donor.
4
00:00:07,777 --> 00:00:11,035
"We, Jake and Gregg,
solemnly swear to treat
5
00:00:11,128 --> 00:00:12,702
Sammie as our natural child."
6
00:00:12,798 --> 00:00:14,371
Dr. Pravesh
7
00:00:14,391 --> 00:00:17,449
is gonna be spending more time
doing clinical trials,
8
00:00:17,452 --> 00:00:18,946
and we need somebody
to fill his slot
9
00:00:18,969 --> 00:00:20,745
- in the ER.
- Is that a job offer?
10
00:00:20,806 --> 00:00:22,454
I need a photo
11
00:00:22,457 --> 00:00:24,106
of my son.
12
00:00:24,884 --> 00:00:25,809
Mom!
13
00:00:25,902 --> 00:00:28,128
Perhaps when you feel up to it,
14
00:00:28,146 --> 00:00:30,480
you'll tell me
what's really going on.
15
00:00:30,574 --> 00:00:32,033
This could be something simple,
treatable.
16
00:00:32,057 --> 00:00:34,033
You know it's not.
17
00:01:04,665 --> 00:01:06,108
And?
18
00:01:07,260 --> 00:01:10,194
Would you like to talk
in your office?
19
00:01:12,097 --> 00:01:14,240
Let's just talk here.
20
00:01:21,792 --> 00:01:24,209
It's multiple sclerosis.
21
00:01:25,870 --> 00:01:27,353
Mixed white and gray matter
22
00:01:27,371 --> 00:01:30,373
with black holes consistent
with worsening damage.
23
00:01:30,525 --> 00:01:32,859
It's hard to know how long
it's been going on.
24
00:01:32,860 --> 00:01:36,120
Months, at least. Years, maybe.
25
00:01:37,198 --> 00:01:40,049
But the science is advancing
in this field,
26
00:01:40,201 --> 00:01:42,585
and there are
some amazing treatments.
27
00:01:42,646 --> 00:01:44,146
There's no cure.
28
00:01:44,372 --> 00:01:47,524
We will find ways
to help you get through this.
29
00:01:49,378 --> 00:01:50,393
A specialist
30
00:01:50,486 --> 00:01:54,656
- can tell you more.
- Okay. Thanks, Conrad.
31
00:01:54,883 --> 00:01:57,400
Not now.
Let's talk about it later.
32
00:01:57,569 --> 00:01:59,828
Thanks.
33
00:01:59,978 --> 00:02:02,079
Of course.
34
00:02:41,371 --> 00:02:44,521
- What?
- Nothing.
35
00:02:44,540 --> 00:02:46,040
You're staring.
36
00:02:46,192 --> 00:02:47,542
No.
37
00:02:47,711 --> 00:02:51,621
I'm just watching my boyfriend
get ready to change the world.
38
00:02:52,941 --> 00:02:54,274
It's a tie.
39
00:02:54,292 --> 00:02:57,126
On a doctor-turned-scientist
40
00:02:57,278 --> 00:02:58,865
who's basically
going to cure cancer
41
00:02:58,889 --> 00:03:00,371
with his new clinical trial.
42
00:03:00,389 --> 00:03:03,967
You are the one that is crushing
her neurosurgery rotation.
43
00:03:04,061 --> 00:03:06,286
Billie's been telling everyone
44
00:03:06,304 --> 00:03:07,637
what a star you are.
45
00:03:07,806 --> 00:03:09,806
She's a great mentor.
46
00:03:09,957 --> 00:03:12,292
And you're changing the subject.
47
00:03:13,051 --> 00:03:14,811
Starting today,
we get to finally enroll
48
00:03:14,905 --> 00:03:16,052
our first patients.
49
00:03:16,073 --> 00:03:18,631
This is the beginning
of a new journey.
50
00:03:18,724 --> 00:03:20,074
One which will end with you
51
00:03:20,225 --> 00:03:22,026
receiving a Nobel Prize.
52
00:03:22,137 --> 00:03:23,986
Let's not get ahead
of ourselves.
53
00:03:24,139 --> 00:03:26,990
But you did forget
one of the best parts
54
00:03:27,141 --> 00:03:28,974
of running a clinical trial.
55
00:03:29,068 --> 00:03:31,811
- More than winning a Nobel?
- Oh, yeah.
56
00:03:31,903 --> 00:03:33,903
Fewer hours at work
57
00:03:33,998 --> 00:03:35,814
mean more time with you.
58
00:03:37,927 --> 00:03:39,426
I like the sound of that.
59
00:03:44,658 --> 00:03:47,084
I am so glad you could come.
60
00:03:47,103 --> 00:03:49,469
Randolph has been so
looking forward to seeing you.
61
00:03:49,697 --> 00:03:51,087
We both have.
62
00:03:51,108 --> 00:03:54,683
- Will there be drums and firecrackers?
- So many.
63
00:03:54,777 --> 00:03:58,262
And a lion dance
from local performers, darling.
64
00:03:58,430 --> 00:04:00,782
But tonight is
more than just a party.
65
00:04:00,932 --> 00:04:04,100
Celebrating Lunar New Year
is just one of the ways
66
00:04:04,194 --> 00:04:05,936
we hope to look out
for the well-being
67
00:04:05,955 --> 00:04:07,622
of our Asian American community.
68
00:04:07,774 --> 00:04:09,198
Yeah, well, I'm all for that.
69
00:04:09,293 --> 00:04:12,109
And I'm happy to help out
with the free hep B screenings.
70
00:04:12,203 --> 00:04:15,170
- Thanks.
- Mm-hmm.
71
00:04:15,873 --> 00:04:16,994
Look who's here!
72
00:04:17,115 --> 00:04:18,949
- Hey!
- Grandpa!
73
00:04:19,043 --> 00:04:21,468
Hi.
74
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:24,954
- Hey, Jake.
- Hey. Good to see you.
75
00:04:24,975 --> 00:04:26,319
I'm so glad
you guys could make it.
76
00:04:26,343 --> 00:04:28,346
We love
celebrating Lunar New Year
77
00:04:28,370 --> 00:04:29,384
with Sammie,
78
00:04:29,553 --> 00:04:31,434
and when she heard
about what you were doing,
79
00:04:31,463 --> 00:04:33,798
she practically booked
the whole trip herself.
80
00:04:33,891 --> 00:04:36,058
Where's Gregg?
81
00:04:36,211 --> 00:04:38,944
He had to work last-minute,
but he sends his love.
82
00:04:40,048 --> 00:04:43,066
Uh, the three of us
need to talk.
83
00:04:43,826 --> 00:04:46,386
Okay. What-What's this about?
84
00:04:46,403 --> 00:04:48,456
Well, let's get
Sammie settled first.
85
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,497
How would you like to help
the preschoolers
86
00:04:50,725 --> 00:04:53,461
- make some decorations, honey? How's that sound?
- Yes.
87
00:04:53,485 --> 00:04:56,319
Yeah? Wonderful.
All right, come on. Let's do it.
88
00:04:56,398 --> 00:04:58,005
Bay Two, drop an NG tube
89
00:04:58,233 --> 00:05:00,065
for a gastric lavage
to identify if it's an upper
90
00:05:00,084 --> 00:05:01,492
or lower GI bleed.
91
00:05:01,511 --> 00:05:03,360
Bay Three, grab some sugar
packets from the breakroom.
92
00:05:03,362 --> 00:05:05,588
Sprinkle them on the
prolapsed stoma, then reduce it.
93
00:05:05,757 --> 00:05:07,072
- On it.
- Bay Four,
94
00:05:07,091 --> 00:05:08,310
avoid sutures
for that poor girl's head lac.
95
00:05:08,334 --> 00:05:10,601
Just use her hair
and some Dermabond.
96
00:05:13,264 --> 00:05:16,173
Dr. Sullivan,
I see why Kit hired you.
97
00:05:16,192 --> 00:05:18,821
- Bet you put the "go" in "go, team."
- If I'm not ordering
98
00:05:18,845 --> 00:05:23,773
- new sneakers every other month, I'm not doing my job.
- Me, too.
99
00:05:23,867 --> 00:05:26,259
So, how's your first week been?
100
00:05:26,427 --> 00:05:27,494
Fine.
101
00:05:30,264 --> 00:05:31,764
A bunch of us are gonna hit
the Lunar New Year party
102
00:05:31,783 --> 00:05:33,098
after work. You should join.
103
00:05:33,192 --> 00:05:36,284
- Free food.
- Yeah, tonight's not gonna work.
104
00:05:37,362 --> 00:05:39,529
Dr. Sullivan, I'm starting
to think you don't like us.
105
00:05:39,548 --> 00:05:42,216
I don't know you well enough
to like you or not, Dr. Feldman.
106
00:05:42,367 --> 00:05:45,870
Exactly. So maybe come hang
and, you know, find out.
107
00:05:45,889 --> 00:05:47,889
Unfortunately, I have plans.
108
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:49,891
I don't think
109
00:05:50,042 --> 00:05:51,778
she really has plans.
110
00:05:51,802 --> 00:05:53,394
So, what do we say to everyone
111
00:05:53,545 --> 00:05:56,880
who keeps asking us
who the new ER doctor is?
112
00:05:56,975 --> 00:05:59,307
Tell them I believe in the soul.
113
00:05:59,461 --> 00:06:02,478
The hanging curveball.
High fiber. Good Scotch.
114
00:06:02,572 --> 00:06:05,632
That the novels of Susan Sontag
are self-indulgent crap.
115
00:06:05,649 --> 00:06:07,649
I believe
Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone.
116
00:06:07,802 --> 00:06:09,134
And I believe there ought to be
117
00:06:09,228 --> 00:06:11,038
a constitutional amendment
outlawing Astroturf
118
00:06:11,062 --> 00:06:12,915
and the designated hitter.
I believe in opening
119
00:06:12,939 --> 00:06:14,785
- your presents...
- ...in opening your presents Christmas morning
120
00:06:14,809 --> 00:06:16,065
rather than Christmas Eve.
121
00:06:16,086 --> 00:06:18,235
Crash Davis's speech
from Bull Durham.
122
00:06:18,254 --> 00:06:20,163
- Great movie.
- It's the best.
123
00:06:20,238 --> 00:06:22,981
Evidence suggests you and I
could be friends, Feldman.
124
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,000
I'm impossible not to like,
Sullivan.
125
00:06:25,095 --> 00:06:26,836
So, you aren't on social media.
126
00:06:26,913 --> 00:06:29,132
I tried to find you to make sure
you weren't a psychopath.
127
00:06:29,156 --> 00:06:31,824
Well, I'm not an exhibitionist
128
00:06:31,918 --> 00:06:34,269
- or a narcissist.
- Harsh.
129
00:06:34,420 --> 00:06:36,586
- But a picture is emerging.
- Love to get back
130
00:06:36,605 --> 00:06:38,831
- to my patients now. If you don't mind.
- Mm.
131
00:06:38,850 --> 00:06:40,274
Do your thing.
132
00:06:40,425 --> 00:06:43,278
I so agree with everything
you just said, by the way.
133
00:06:43,428 --> 00:06:45,095
I, too, am tired
of the humblebrags
134
00:06:45,189 --> 00:06:47,000
and the... You're
just gonna keep wa... Okay.
135
00:06:47,024 --> 00:06:48,341
Thanks, Dr. Sullivan.
136
00:06:48,358 --> 00:06:50,860
Another successful interaction,
Zach.
137
00:06:51,012 --> 00:06:52,694
You paged?
138
00:06:52,846 --> 00:06:54,680
29-year-old female.
139
00:06:54,774 --> 00:06:56,774
Had a syncopal episode
during spinning class.
140
00:06:56,942 --> 00:06:58,108
She had a heart transplant,
141
00:06:58,127 --> 00:06:59,944
so figured
you should take a look.
142
00:07:00,038 --> 00:07:01,255
What do we have here?
Initial EKG,
143
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,447
chest X-ray
and head CT negative.
144
00:07:03,466 --> 00:07:06,550
Vitals are stable.
She's awake and oriented.
145
00:07:09,713 --> 00:07:11,047
Call Hawkins.
146
00:07:11,141 --> 00:07:14,141
- For a consult?
- Just call him.
147
00:07:17,872 --> 00:07:20,206
- What's up?
- Hey.
148
00:07:20,375 --> 00:07:22,649
- Is it your mom?
- No. No, no,
149
00:07:22,802 --> 00:07:24,968
this is about a young lady
here in the ER
150
00:07:24,987 --> 00:07:27,471
with a syncopal episode
and a cardiac history.
151
00:07:27,548 --> 00:07:28,822
They called me to do a consult
152
00:07:29,050 --> 00:07:30,528
because she had
a heart transplant.
153
00:07:30,552 --> 00:07:32,494
- Okay. Let's have a look.
- It's...
154
00:07:32,644 --> 00:07:34,978
a little more complicated
than that.
155
00:07:34,997 --> 00:07:37,314
The transplant was performed
by a former colleague of mine
156
00:07:37,334 --> 00:07:40,459
at Redman Hospital
three years ago.
157
00:07:42,564 --> 00:07:43,730
Three years ago.
158
00:07:43,822 --> 00:07:46,749
- In September.
- When in September?
159
00:07:46,901 --> 00:07:49,302
September 17th.
160
00:07:50,180 --> 00:07:53,096
Yeah, there's no doubt about it.
161
00:07:54,074 --> 00:07:56,308
She has Nic's heart.
162
00:08:05,603 --> 00:08:08,196
Gigi, this is Sammie,
and she'd like to help you
163
00:08:08,346 --> 00:08:10,567
- with some decorations. Is that okay?
- Okay.
164
00:08:10,591 --> 00:08:13,776
Hi, Sammie.
I'm not very good with scissors.
165
00:08:13,870 --> 00:08:15,927
I can help. I'll show you how.
166
00:08:16,021 --> 00:08:17,612
You're a great dad, Jake.
167
00:08:17,706 --> 00:08:19,206
She's a sweetheart.
168
00:08:19,434 --> 00:08:21,375
It's all Sammie.
I think she was born this way.
169
00:08:23,437 --> 00:08:25,547
So, what's this all about?
170
00:08:25,697 --> 00:08:27,048
Let's get a coffee,
171
00:08:27,199 --> 00:08:29,867
- find a quiet place to talk.
- Okay.
172
00:08:41,139 --> 00:08:43,063
Don't say anything to her.
173
00:08:43,290 --> 00:08:44,899
There's no reason
she has to know.
174
00:08:45,051 --> 00:08:47,235
And I don't want to talk
about it. At least
175
00:08:47,385 --> 00:08:50,386
- not until we know what's wrong and fix it.
- Understood.
176
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,056
Hannah.
177
00:08:52,149 --> 00:08:55,392
Hey. I'm Dr. Austin,
178
00:08:55,412 --> 00:08:58,227
- and this is my colleague Dr. Hawkins.
- Hello.
179
00:08:58,248 --> 00:09:00,397
- Nice to meet you both.
- So, we heard you had a bad fall.
180
00:09:00,417 --> 00:09:03,083
Yeah. I started
taking a spin class.
181
00:09:03,311 --> 00:09:05,402
Been getting in good shape,
and I love it.
182
00:09:05,422 --> 00:09:07,381
So, you think maybe
you pushed yourself too hard?
183
00:09:07,405 --> 00:09:10,091
That's what's weird.
I mean, I don't think so.
184
00:09:10,241 --> 00:09:12,985
I forgot my spin shoes at home,
so I had to come back.
185
00:09:13,004 --> 00:09:14,912
And I remember I'd just joined
186
00:09:14,989 --> 00:09:16,764
the class
when "Nonstop" came on.
187
00:09:16,916 --> 00:09:18,916
Ah, I love that song.
188
00:09:18,934 --> 00:09:20,417
Uh,
189
00:09:20,437 --> 00:09:22,828
and all of a sudden,
I couldn't catch my breath
190
00:09:22,846 --> 00:09:24,996
and just collapsed on the bike.
191
00:09:25,015 --> 00:09:28,275
Paramedics had to unclip me,
and I came to in here.
192
00:09:28,427 --> 00:09:31,070
Well, let's take a listen
to your heart, shall we?
193
00:09:35,025 --> 00:09:36,542
Your turn.
194
00:09:36,601 --> 00:09:38,494
Hmm?
195
00:09:58,866 --> 00:10:00,624
Heart sounds normal.
196
00:10:00,644 --> 00:10:03,702
All right, let's
lie you down for an echo.
197
00:10:03,796 --> 00:10:05,355
Okay.
198
00:10:07,725 --> 00:10:09,375
We saw that you had
199
00:10:09,394 --> 00:10:11,152
a heart transplant
a few years ago.
200
00:10:11,302 --> 00:10:14,212
Yeah. I'm one of the lucky ones.
201
00:10:14,231 --> 00:10:17,048
Well, aside from
the shortness of breath
202
00:10:17,067 --> 00:10:19,067
in class,
you have any leg swelling?
203
00:10:19,162 --> 00:10:20,827
Wake up with trouble breathing?
204
00:10:20,980 --> 00:10:22,312
No, um,
205
00:10:22,331 --> 00:10:24,831
not since my transplant.
206
00:10:24,984 --> 00:10:26,908
It was like a miracle.
207
00:10:27,061 --> 00:10:29,077
I was born with a bad heart.
208
00:10:29,172 --> 00:10:30,078
I mean, I suffered
209
00:10:30,173 --> 00:10:32,822
with every symptom
of heart failure
210
00:10:32,841 --> 00:10:36,085
for so long, it felt
like I was dying every day.
211
00:10:36,236 --> 00:10:39,179
And then
after I got my new heart,
212
00:10:39,407 --> 00:10:40,330
I was alive again.
213
00:10:40,350 --> 00:10:43,743
Any other symptoms?
Anything at all?
214
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,519
I have headaches occasionally.
215
00:10:48,081 --> 00:10:49,749
Well, the echo shows
216
00:10:49,767 --> 00:10:52,985
that your heart's
ejection fraction is low.
217
00:10:54,364 --> 00:10:58,090
Meaning it's-it's not pumping
as well as we'd like,
218
00:10:58,183 --> 00:11:00,609
which is probably the cause
of your collapse.
219
00:11:00,703 --> 00:11:03,352
Uh, Hannah,
220
00:11:03,373 --> 00:11:04,779
I'm sorry to tell you this,
221
00:11:04,874 --> 00:11:07,542
but you are
in early heart failure.
222
00:11:07,711 --> 00:11:10,027
No. No, no.
223
00:11:10,046 --> 00:11:13,880
Um, I prayed that I'd never hear
those words again.
224
00:11:14,033 --> 00:11:16,775
This heart can't fail.
225
00:11:16,793 --> 00:11:18,461
It can't.
226
00:11:19,279 --> 00:11:20,758
After my transplant,
I did everything
227
00:11:20,782 --> 00:11:24,558
the doctors told me to do.
I-I never missed an appointment.
228
00:11:24,710 --> 00:11:25,893
I mean, I...
229
00:11:26,044 --> 00:11:27,688
- How could this happen?
- Don't worry.
230
00:11:27,712 --> 00:11:30,033
We're gonna run some labs,
and we're gonna figure this out.
231
00:11:31,808 --> 00:11:33,567
Relax.
232
00:11:33,794 --> 00:11:35,235
Take a deep breath.
233
00:11:40,576 --> 00:11:43,161
- Okay?
- Okay.
234
00:11:43,895 --> 00:11:44,986
There you go.
235
00:11:45,139 --> 00:11:46,748
It's gonna be okay.
236
00:11:46,975 --> 00:11:49,250
- What's the story there?
- Hmm?
237
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:53,044
Why do you ask?
238
00:11:53,739 --> 00:11:55,965
Why the urgent page?
239
00:11:56,759 --> 00:11:58,426
Now Hawkins seems concerned.
240
00:11:59,169 --> 00:12:02,846
So, are we sharing
personal tidbits now?
241
00:12:03,791 --> 00:12:05,265
Okay. All right. I deserve that.
242
00:12:05,493 --> 00:12:08,918
That young woman
was the recipient of a donor heart,
243
00:12:08,937 --> 00:12:10,663
and it belonged
to Conrad's wife,
244
00:12:10,681 --> 00:12:14,066
who died in an auto accident
three years ago.
245
00:12:14,836 --> 00:12:16,193
Damn.
246
00:12:17,672 --> 00:12:19,832
She was a
legendary nurse practitioner.
247
00:12:19,856 --> 00:12:21,264
One of us.
248
00:12:21,283 --> 00:12:24,025
And Nic and Conrad
were a great couple.
249
00:12:24,177 --> 00:12:26,846
A true love story.
250
00:12:26,864 --> 00:12:28,681
That's tragic.
251
00:12:28,698 --> 00:12:30,850
It's taken him years to recover.
252
00:12:30,942 --> 00:12:32,851
He's finally starting
to live again.
253
00:12:32,945 --> 00:12:34,519
And...
254
00:12:34,538 --> 00:12:36,107
if that woman
has something seriously wrong
255
00:12:36,131 --> 00:12:38,190
and should happen to die...
256
00:12:38,209 --> 00:12:41,302
- Who knows how he's gonna react.
- Yeah.
257
00:12:42,046 --> 00:12:46,197
A few weeks ago,
I started feeling... off.
258
00:12:46,216 --> 00:12:50,201
Numbness in my hands
and a loss of dexterity.
259
00:12:50,221 --> 00:12:52,388
That's why I pulled myself
260
00:12:52,539 --> 00:12:54,222
out of surgery. I just wanted
261
00:12:54,375 --> 00:12:55,794
to make sure
I knew what it was first
262
00:12:55,818 --> 00:12:57,725
before-before I worried you.
263
00:12:57,821 --> 00:12:59,394
So I waited.
264
00:12:59,547 --> 00:13:01,655
But I got
the final results today.
265
00:13:01,883 --> 00:13:03,807
And I...
266
00:13:03,826 --> 00:13:05,717
I don't want to spoil
this visit.
267
00:13:05,735 --> 00:13:08,644
I've been so looking forward
to it. But you're here,
268
00:13:08,739 --> 00:13:10,056
- so...
- What is it?
269
00:13:10,057 --> 00:13:11,499
P-Please, just tell us.
270
00:13:11,725 --> 00:13:15,001
I have multiple sclerosis.
271
00:13:16,172 --> 00:13:18,913
Oh, darling, I'm so sorry.
272
00:13:19,008 --> 00:13:21,067
- We're-we're here for you.
- And I...
273
00:13:21,159 --> 00:13:22,902
I know. You know,
I just learned this morning,
274
00:13:22,919 --> 00:13:24,919
so I'm...
275
00:13:25,072 --> 00:13:27,472
still kind of processing.
276
00:13:28,576 --> 00:13:29,741
A-And to be honest,
277
00:13:29,802 --> 00:13:31,351
I'm just... I'm just reeling.
278
00:13:31,578 --> 00:13:33,229
Of course.
279
00:13:34,581 --> 00:13:36,097
But there's hope.
280
00:13:36,250 --> 00:13:38,320
Whatever you've been experiencing
281
00:13:38,344 --> 00:13:40,861
- can be treated with meds.
- Yeah.
282
00:13:41,088 --> 00:13:42,287
W-We need to jump into this
right away.
283
00:13:42,288 --> 00:13:43,900
We need to find
the best place for you
284
00:13:43,924 --> 00:13:45,677
- to get treatment.
- I, you know, I have to round
285
00:13:45,701 --> 00:13:48,277
on some patients that I've been
asked to consult on, so...
286
00:13:48,428 --> 00:13:51,205
Of course. Go.
We'll get more information,
287
00:13:51,432 --> 00:13:53,615
and come find us
in my office when you're done.
288
00:13:53,768 --> 00:13:55,334
Yeah. Okay.
289
00:14:09,133 --> 00:14:11,783
Now the decompression.
290
00:14:12,543 --> 00:14:16,230
Placing the needle
into the subdural hematoma.
291
00:14:25,298 --> 00:14:26,407
Nicely done.
292
00:14:26,576 --> 00:14:30,059
I can see why AJ is courting you
for cardiothoracic.
293
00:14:30,138 --> 00:14:32,580
Choosing a specialty
is gonna be so hard.
294
00:14:32,807 --> 00:14:33,914
I wish I could do it all.
295
00:14:34,066 --> 00:14:35,990
I think
being a heart surgeon's great.
296
00:14:36,085 --> 00:14:38,144
If you want to be a plumber.
297
00:14:39,813 --> 00:14:42,234
Do not let Dr. Austin hear you say that.
298
00:14:42,258 --> 00:14:45,259
No shade to Dr. Austin,
but the heart is just a pump.
299
00:14:45,369 --> 00:14:48,745
The brain is more complex
than the universe
300
00:14:48,838 --> 00:14:51,823
and the source of everything
that makes us human.
301
00:14:52,918 --> 00:14:56,662
It's the source of my dyslexia
and the key to overcoming it.
302
00:14:56,754 --> 00:14:58,330
See, it's personal to you.
303
00:14:58,423 --> 00:15:00,607
That's how passion
for a field is born.
304
00:15:00,835 --> 00:15:02,684
You think I could do this?
305
00:15:03,504 --> 00:15:06,113
We could always use more women
in neurosurgery.
306
00:15:06,340 --> 00:15:08,506
We are overloaded
with arrogant men.
307
00:15:09,268 --> 00:15:12,285
But I would never try
to recruit you.
308
00:15:12,513 --> 00:15:13,178
Why?
309
00:15:13,272 --> 00:15:15,181
Well, Devon would kill me,
310
00:15:15,198 --> 00:15:16,849
- for one thing.
- Oh. He...
311
00:15:16,942 --> 00:15:19,534
- He'll support whatever I choose to do.
- I know.
312
00:15:19,687 --> 00:15:22,354
But as a neurosurgeon,
your life becomes the hospital.
313
00:15:22,373 --> 00:15:24,183
To be truly excellent
requires total commitment,
314
00:15:24,207 --> 00:15:26,357
and the pressure is intense.
315
00:15:26,376 --> 00:15:27,408
If you ever want
316
00:15:27,470 --> 00:15:30,787
- to have kids...
- That's far in the future.
317
00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:33,057
If ever.
318
00:15:34,051 --> 00:15:36,368
I really want to consider this.
319
00:15:36,386 --> 00:15:37,885
All right.
320
00:15:38,038 --> 00:15:40,147
Well, we can talk about it.
321
00:15:40,224 --> 00:15:42,316
You have both the brains
and the guts.
322
00:15:44,470 --> 00:15:46,802
Okay, you ready to try it blind?
323
00:15:46,822 --> 00:15:49,548
Oh, hell yeah.
324
00:15:50,308 --> 00:15:53,827
Lunar New Year was your father's
favorite holiday.
325
00:15:53,979 --> 00:15:55,221
And I also remember as a kid,
326
00:15:55,239 --> 00:15:56,645
he would give me
those little red envelopes.
327
00:15:56,665 --> 00:15:58,890
And I thought today,
328
00:15:58,908 --> 00:16:02,168
perhaps you could use one.
329
00:16:06,676 --> 00:16:08,750
Can always use a little luck.
330
00:16:17,260 --> 00:16:19,854
Do you really think
this drug trial
331
00:16:20,004 --> 00:16:22,004
could beat my cancer?
332
00:16:22,692 --> 00:16:26,693
Most success rates are low,
generally, in clinical trials,
333
00:16:26,845 --> 00:16:28,028
but this one's different.
334
00:16:28,179 --> 00:16:29,772
I mean,
they're thinking this could be
335
00:16:29,923 --> 00:16:31,847
the next big thing
in lung cancer.
336
00:16:31,942 --> 00:16:33,200
But one step at a time, Mom.
337
00:16:33,351 --> 00:16:36,620
First, we have to get you
enrolled in the trial.
338
00:16:39,191 --> 00:16:42,710
So, my mother's cancer
is spreading.
339
00:16:42,937 --> 00:16:43,936
Her lung masses are growing,
340
00:16:43,953 --> 00:16:45,770
and there's a new met
in her liver,
341
00:16:45,773 --> 00:16:49,698
and if it continues to spread...
342
00:16:49,719 --> 00:16:52,302
The next step will be hospice.
343
00:16:52,889 --> 00:16:54,663
Yeah.
344
00:16:54,815 --> 00:16:56,115
We're not there yet,
345
00:16:56,133 --> 00:16:58,966
but I do want to give her
the best chance to live,
346
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,452
and-and right now,
it's your trial.
347
00:17:01,471 --> 00:17:03,621
But have you looked
at the side effects
348
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:04,961
- of this trial?
- Yeah.
349
00:17:05,125 --> 00:17:07,308
She can do this, Pravesh.
350
00:17:07,461 --> 00:17:09,795
I'll need to assess that
for myself
351
00:17:09,814 --> 00:17:12,146
- very carefully.
- Yeah.
352
00:17:12,299 --> 00:17:14,157
Yeah, please do.
353
00:17:15,469 --> 00:17:17,803
But...
354
00:17:17,821 --> 00:17:20,163
This is our last hope.
355
00:17:29,074 --> 00:17:30,816
- Hey. I heard.
- How?
356
00:17:30,909 --> 00:17:32,070
The gossip mill at Chastain
357
00:17:32,095 --> 00:17:33,221
is alive and well.
358
00:17:33,244 --> 00:17:35,261
We're all pulling for her.
359
00:17:35,489 --> 00:17:37,747
- Do you know what's wrong?
- Heart failure.
360
00:17:37,767 --> 00:17:39,825
We're seeing what we can do.
361
00:17:39,844 --> 00:17:41,509
How are you holding up?
362
00:17:42,270 --> 00:17:45,271
I'm keeping perspective.
The heart is a muscle.
363
00:17:48,836 --> 00:17:50,611
Hey.
364
00:17:50,837 --> 00:17:52,947
This is me, Conrad.
365
00:17:53,097 --> 00:17:55,825
Inside this woman
who walked into our ER
366
00:17:55,976 --> 00:17:58,861
is a part
of someone we both loved.
367
00:17:58,936 --> 00:18:01,079
That means something.
368
00:18:02,125 --> 00:18:04,365
After Nic died,
I kept seeing things
369
00:18:04,518 --> 00:18:06,384
that made me feel
like she was near me.
370
00:18:06,386 --> 00:18:09,538
A song we loved would
suddenly come on the radio.
371
00:18:09,690 --> 00:18:11,539
A woman in the park
with her laugh.
372
00:18:11,692 --> 00:18:14,284
I'd find an old note
she left for me in the drawer.
373
00:18:14,303 --> 00:18:15,594
That type of thing.
374
00:18:16,972 --> 00:18:19,122
Then eventually, it faded.
375
00:18:19,866 --> 00:18:22,049
But now a small part of her,
376
00:18:22,202 --> 00:18:24,886
a real part of her, is here.
377
00:18:25,038 --> 00:18:26,721
Alive.
378
00:18:30,987 --> 00:18:32,211
Hannah, talk to me.
379
00:18:32,304 --> 00:18:33,988
I can't... I can't breathe.
380
00:18:34,214 --> 00:18:36,230
- I can't breathe.
- She's hypotensive,
381
00:18:36,325 --> 00:18:38,049
tachycardic,
and her sats are dropping.
382
00:18:38,143 --> 00:18:40,051
This looks
like cardiogenic shock.
383
00:18:40,069 --> 00:18:43,580
- I need a norepinephrine drip.
- And page Austin.
384
00:18:49,172 --> 00:18:50,913
Her ejection fraction
is only 15%.
385
00:18:51,007 --> 00:18:53,423
We need to get her
to the cath lab now.
386
00:18:59,830 --> 00:19:01,182
Inserting
387
00:19:01,333 --> 00:19:03,017
the pump into the aorta.
388
00:19:03,167 --> 00:19:06,761
That should help her heart
pump a little easier.
389
00:19:06,913 --> 00:19:09,506
But it's only a
stopgap. Her heart failure
390
00:19:09,599 --> 00:19:11,599
- is getting worse.
- She must be rejecting
391
00:19:11,751 --> 00:19:13,085
the transplanted heart.
392
00:19:13,178 --> 00:19:15,498
I wish there
were some other explanation.
393
00:19:15,530 --> 00:19:18,365
Well, she
stabilized enough to tolerate
394
00:19:18,517 --> 00:19:20,942
the biopsy.
That should tell us more.
395
00:19:21,095 --> 00:19:23,412
Biopsy catheter to me.
396
00:19:31,047 --> 00:19:34,214
So, AJ told me
you've discussed how, um,
397
00:19:34,365 --> 00:19:37,718
brutal and, uh, dangerous
this trial would be.
398
00:19:37,886 --> 00:19:39,513
And you're sure
you'd want to do it?
399
00:19:39,538 --> 00:19:43,223
I'm sorry to ask you again,
but given the risks,
400
00:19:43,375 --> 00:19:45,726
I need to hear it
from you directly.
401
00:19:45,952 --> 00:19:48,103
Yes.
402
00:19:50,807 --> 00:19:52,398
And...
403
00:19:52,550 --> 00:19:55,961
do you have any concerns that
you want to discuss with me?
404
00:19:55,962 --> 00:19:58,980
I'm not just doing this
for myself
405
00:19:59,133 --> 00:20:00,798
but for others.
406
00:20:00,817 --> 00:20:02,392
I mean,
407
00:20:02,411 --> 00:20:05,304
it will help advance
the science, right?
408
00:20:05,321 --> 00:20:06,321
Yeah.
409
00:20:06,414 --> 00:20:08,640
That's the point
of the clinical trials.
410
00:20:08,659 --> 00:20:10,400
They're experiments.
411
00:20:10,419 --> 00:20:12,810
Okay. I'm in.
412
00:20:12,903 --> 00:20:14,755
I admire that enormously.
413
00:20:14,905 --> 00:20:17,982
But we still have to determine
if you meet the criteria,
414
00:20:18,001 --> 00:20:21,595
which means one more test.
415
00:20:21,821 --> 00:20:24,138
- Okay?
- Okay.
416
00:20:25,768 --> 00:20:27,659
So,
417
00:20:27,678 --> 00:20:31,020
I'm gonna put this
over your nose.
418
00:20:32,942 --> 00:20:36,167
Now I want you to put your mouth
419
00:20:36,185 --> 00:20:38,278
around this mouthpiece
and breathe in normally.
420
00:20:42,768 --> 00:20:44,433
All right, Carol. I want you
421
00:20:44,452 --> 00:20:47,453
to pant. In and out.
422
00:20:47,605 --> 00:20:48,622
Good.
423
00:20:50,683 --> 00:20:52,366
Now take a deep breath in.
424
00:20:53,778 --> 00:20:54,778
Now breathe all of the air out.
425
00:20:54,797 --> 00:20:57,372
Keep going.
426
00:20:57,465 --> 00:20:59,383
Come on.
427
00:21:03,471 --> 00:21:04,863
And we're done.
428
00:21:04,955 --> 00:21:07,307
Let me try that again.
429
00:21:07,977 --> 00:21:10,310
Okay. One more time.
430
00:21:12,205 --> 00:21:14,722
The rules of the trialare clear.
431
00:21:14,875 --> 00:21:18,152
We need an FEV1 of 50% or more.
432
00:21:19,063 --> 00:21:22,155
Hers were 45 both times.
433
00:21:23,808 --> 00:21:25,717
I'm so sorry.
434
00:21:25,736 --> 00:21:27,368
She didn't pass.
435
00:21:29,405 --> 00:21:32,223
So, you're telling me that
she doesn't meet the criteria
436
00:21:32,241 --> 00:21:34,393
based on what's essentially
a rounding error?
437
00:21:34,394 --> 00:21:36,002
No, it's more
than a rounding error.
438
00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:37,395
There are other issues.
439
00:21:37,489 --> 00:21:38,822
I reviewed Carol's chart.
440
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,657
Her echo and performance status
were borderline, AJ.
441
00:21:41,676 --> 00:21:44,010
A-Are you cherry-picking
442
00:21:44,162 --> 00:21:46,846
only healthy patients to protect
443
00:21:46,998 --> 00:21:48,163
your numbers?
444
00:21:48,183 --> 00:21:50,759
I'm not protecting my data.
445
00:21:50,853 --> 00:21:52,760
I'm protecting Carol.
446
00:21:52,855 --> 00:21:54,170
And given her condition,
447
00:21:54,263 --> 00:21:55,580
I'm not sure how likely it is
448
00:21:55,598 --> 00:21:56,983
this incredibly
difficult regimen
449
00:21:57,008 --> 00:21:58,400
would even help her.
450
00:21:59,510 --> 00:22:00,919
"Not sure"
451
00:22:00,938 --> 00:22:03,680
doesn't cut it when we're
talking about my mother's life.
452
00:22:03,773 --> 00:22:05,515
I'm sorry,
453
00:22:05,608 --> 00:22:07,884
but these criteria exist
454
00:22:07,886 --> 00:22:10,037
for a reason.
455
00:22:11,539 --> 00:22:13,265
Who are you?
456
00:22:14,058 --> 00:22:16,859
No, really,
is-is this who you are?
457
00:22:16,953 --> 00:22:18,769
A numbers dude
458
00:22:18,939 --> 00:22:23,008
who blocks
a desperate woman's last hope?
459
00:22:42,980 --> 00:22:45,888
Wh-What happened?
460
00:22:45,907 --> 00:22:48,616
Your heart failure is worsening.
461
00:22:49,987 --> 00:22:51,728
We're waiting
for tests to confirm,
462
00:22:51,747 --> 00:22:53,896
but we're worried that...
463
00:22:54,065 --> 00:22:58,067
your body is rejecting
your transplanted heart.
464
00:22:58,903 --> 00:23:01,646
You have to fix it.
465
00:23:01,664 --> 00:23:03,589
Please.
466
00:23:03,759 --> 00:23:05,651
We're trying.
467
00:23:05,743 --> 00:23:09,488
I'll let you know as soon as we
get the results of the biopsy.
468
00:23:09,506 --> 00:23:11,006
Okay.
469
00:23:11,157 --> 00:23:12,990
If you need anything
470
00:23:13,009 --> 00:23:14,101
or you feel any discomfort,
471
00:23:14,327 --> 00:23:16,678
I want you to push
this red button, okay?
472
00:23:16,771 --> 00:23:19,565
I trust you.
473
00:23:20,592 --> 00:23:23,835
I know you'll help me.
474
00:23:23,836 --> 00:23:26,070
I will.
475
00:23:30,786 --> 00:23:32,176
Hey.
476
00:23:32,195 --> 00:23:33,361
I'm doing a split shift,
477
00:23:33,513 --> 00:23:35,513
so I'll be taking care
of Hannah in the ICU.
478
00:23:35,606 --> 00:23:38,775
- Want me to catch you up?
- No. Already did that myself.
479
00:23:38,902 --> 00:23:40,276
I'll keep a close eye.
480
00:23:40,354 --> 00:23:43,172
Page you if anything comes up.
481
00:23:44,708 --> 00:23:46,615
Conrad?
482
00:23:46,710 --> 00:23:48,093
Yeah?
483
00:23:49,712 --> 00:23:52,597
I'm sorry about your wife.
484
00:23:54,218 --> 00:23:55,959
Thanks,
but this isn't about Nic.
485
00:23:55,978 --> 00:23:57,719
It's about Hannah, okay?
486
00:24:10,808 --> 00:24:15,119
Open. Ah. Open...
487
00:24:15,888 --> 00:24:17,071
It's good. It's okay.
488
00:24:17,223 --> 00:24:19,374
It's okay.
489
00:24:24,507 --> 00:24:26,798
Oh!
490
00:24:32,072 --> 00:24:35,163
Dr. Bell, are you okay?
491
00:24:35,925 --> 00:24:38,352
Yeah, fine. Thanks.
492
00:25:06,214 --> 00:25:07,881
We have great news.
493
00:25:08,032 --> 00:25:09,232
Kit and I have been calling in
494
00:25:09,276 --> 00:25:10,420
every favor.
We're really excited
495
00:25:10,443 --> 00:25:12,443
to tell you
what we've come up with.
496
00:25:12,537 --> 00:25:13,961
Sit down.
497
00:25:15,281 --> 00:25:18,115
It's all right. I'm not
completely incapacitated yet.
498
00:25:18,209 --> 00:25:20,394
Uh, n-no, I know. I just...
499
00:25:20,563 --> 00:25:24,288
The landscape around MS
is always evolving.
500
00:25:24,307 --> 00:25:27,884
New immunomodulator therapies
reduce relapses
501
00:25:27,978 --> 00:25:29,461
and progression.
502
00:25:29,479 --> 00:25:30,714
If you experience a relapse
503
00:25:30,739 --> 00:25:31,904
after, uh, starting
504
00:25:32,132 --> 00:25:33,777
one treatment,
many patients try another,
505
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,317
and-and they keep trying
until they're symptom-free.
506
00:25:36,394 --> 00:25:38,804
Finding the right specialist
is paramount,
507
00:25:38,822 --> 00:25:40,563
so Jake pulled some strings
508
00:25:40,656 --> 00:25:44,326
and got you a neuro consult
at the Mayo Clinic on Tuesday.
509
00:25:44,478 --> 00:25:46,420
The chair of
the department's a friend.
510
00:25:46,570 --> 00:25:48,980
I did his nephew's cleft palate
surgery a few years ago.
511
00:25:49,074 --> 00:25:50,648
He's already been filled in.
512
00:25:50,741 --> 00:25:52,925
Thank you. Both of you.
513
00:25:53,077 --> 00:25:54,242
So you'll go?
514
00:25:54,262 --> 00:25:56,153
Yeah, of course.
515
00:25:56,173 --> 00:25:58,080
And I'm-I'm grateful.
516
00:25:58,249 --> 00:25:59,657
I'm so encouraged.
517
00:25:59,675 --> 00:26:02,585
- Jake, I need a couple minutes alone with Kit.
- Yeah.
518
00:26:02,605 --> 00:26:06,064
I'll, uh, let Mayo know
you're confirmed.
519
00:26:14,616 --> 00:26:16,674
Kit, I'm leaving Chastain.
520
00:26:16,692 --> 00:26:18,192
A leave of absence.
521
00:26:18,345 --> 00:26:20,769
- Of course. To heal...
- No. Permanently.
522
00:26:20,939 --> 00:26:22,180
What?
523
00:26:22,272 --> 00:26:24,124
I'll-I'll try the treatments,
524
00:26:24,275 --> 00:26:26,776
and I'm grateful for the help,
525
00:26:26,944 --> 00:26:28,105
but I'll never operate again,
526
00:26:28,188 --> 00:26:30,463
- even if I get markedly better.
- Why not?
527
00:26:30,615 --> 00:26:33,782
You at 95% is better
than anyone at 100.
528
00:26:33,801 --> 00:26:35,876
It's more complicated than that.
529
00:26:35,971 --> 00:26:38,453
Then, please, explain it to me.
530
00:26:38,473 --> 00:26:42,509
- Optic neuritis. You familiar?
- Of course.
531
00:26:42,736 --> 00:26:43,792
Eye pain, vision loss.
532
00:26:43,886 --> 00:26:45,369
Are you experiencing any?
533
00:26:45,462 --> 00:26:48,297
I just had an episode.
It cleared up.
534
00:26:48,317 --> 00:26:51,317
But it's a sign the disease
is progressing rapidly.
535
00:26:51,469 --> 00:26:54,488
I'll lose my strength,
then the ability to walk
536
00:26:54,638 --> 00:26:57,156
and speak and eat.
537
00:26:57,233 --> 00:26:58,659
And at some point,
538
00:26:58,809 --> 00:27:01,219
- I'll end up paralyzed in a hospital bed...
- Okay, stop.
539
00:27:01,238 --> 00:27:03,329
- ...unable to feed myself.
- Stop.
540
00:27:03,557 --> 00:27:05,207
Stop.
541
00:27:12,007 --> 00:27:16,093
See, you fell in love with
the man that I wanted to be.
542
00:27:19,071 --> 00:27:22,807
And I became him because of you.
543
00:27:24,744 --> 00:27:27,854
What are you saying?
544
00:27:28,006 --> 00:27:30,315
I love you.
545
00:27:32,435 --> 00:27:35,510
And I will not saddle you
with this.
546
00:27:37,773 --> 00:27:41,259
I have a welcome speech to give,
but don't leave.
547
00:27:41,278 --> 00:27:44,496
- We have to talk about this.
- No, we don't.
548
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:48,333
I have an office to pack.
549
00:28:39,502 --> 00:28:40,551
Kit!
550
00:28:42,765 --> 00:28:45,265
Hey, Kit!
551
00:28:47,417 --> 00:28:48,518
Kit!
552
00:28:49,921 --> 00:28:51,480
What'd he say?
553
00:28:54,925 --> 00:28:57,234
What happened?
554
00:29:14,855 --> 00:29:16,855
Gigi, wait! Sammie, wait!
555
00:29:16,873 --> 00:29:19,340
Sammie!
556
00:29:24,364 --> 00:29:27,382
She's seizing.
Two milligrams of lorazepam now.
557
00:29:27,476 --> 00:29:30,059
I'm gonna get her on her side
before she aspirates.
558
00:29:36,634 --> 00:29:39,376
So, she came in with heart failure,
559
00:29:39,395 --> 00:29:40,802
rapidly developed
cardiogenic shock.
560
00:29:40,823 --> 00:29:43,230
- And now seizures?
- Despite everything
561
00:29:43,307 --> 00:29:44,451
we're throwing at her,
she continues trending
562
00:29:44,474 --> 00:29:46,378
- in the wrong direction.
- She has a bleed.
563
00:29:46,403 --> 00:29:48,364
Likely caused by the
blood thinners we put her on
564
00:29:48,387 --> 00:29:49,644
for the balloon pump.
565
00:29:49,739 --> 00:29:51,980
I mean, thankfully, it's small,
so we can just monitor.
566
00:29:52,000 --> 00:29:53,982
But look at the meninges
lining her brain.
567
00:29:54,001 --> 00:29:56,060
Usually they're smooth,
but here they're bumpy.
568
00:29:56,153 --> 00:29:58,078
Something more serious
is happening here.
569
00:29:58,230 --> 00:29:59,506
Infection.
570
00:29:59,732 --> 00:30:01,156
An infection while
we're blasting her with meds
571
00:30:01,175 --> 00:30:03,046
to suppress her immune system
would be deadly.
572
00:30:03,069 --> 00:30:05,882
- Devi and I will do a spinal tap.
- I'll get her a full body scan.
573
00:30:05,905 --> 00:30:08,163
I'll send off autoimmune labs
and talk to pathology,
574
00:30:08,182 --> 00:30:09,982
see if the biopsy results
are back.
575
00:30:10,911 --> 00:30:13,501
- So what did I miss?
- Hannah's labs came back normal.
576
00:30:13,521 --> 00:30:17,022
Spinal tap was negative.
No cancer on the full body scan.
577
00:30:17,250 --> 00:30:18,098
Pathology told me
her biopsy proves
578
00:30:18,250 --> 00:30:19,290
she's rejecting her heart.
579
00:30:19,419 --> 00:30:21,102
Tacro levels
are in the basement.
580
00:30:21,253 --> 00:30:22,898
So her heart's failing because
she's probably not taking
581
00:30:22,923 --> 00:30:25,009
- her immunosuppressants.
- I don't think she would do that.
582
00:30:25,032 --> 00:30:26,251
Not based on everything
she told us.
583
00:30:26,276 --> 00:30:27,942
Well, we don't
really know her, do we?
584
00:30:28,095 --> 00:30:30,369
You know,
people can surprise you.
585
00:30:33,023 --> 00:30:34,875
I got to check on a patient.
586
00:30:34,951 --> 00:30:36,792
I'll be back in five.
587
00:30:39,864 --> 00:30:41,047
You all right?
588
00:30:41,199 --> 00:30:44,791
My mom's not getting
into Devon's trial.
589
00:30:44,886 --> 00:30:47,386
He said she missed the cut.
590
00:30:47,538 --> 00:30:49,349
Why don't you talk to Hannah
about those meds?
591
00:30:49,374 --> 00:30:50,765
I'll talk to Devon.
592
00:31:01,569 --> 00:31:05,404
Carol was outside the FEV1
entry criteria by five percent?
593
00:31:07,467 --> 00:31:09,742
Those are the rules.
My hands are tied.
594
00:31:09,894 --> 00:31:11,227
Protocol exists for a reason.
595
00:31:11,246 --> 00:31:13,413
I taught you to break
the rules for the patients.
596
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:15,041
You taught me to also follow
the science.
597
00:31:15,066 --> 00:31:17,842
And what you're saying now
is to ignore it.
598
00:31:17,902 --> 00:31:18,981
Yeah, we both know her odds
599
00:31:19,069 --> 00:31:20,589
are long
and this is your first trial,
600
00:31:20,646 --> 00:31:24,648
but to turn her down because
she'd skew your statistics?
601
00:31:24,784 --> 00:31:26,023
Do you think it was easy for me
602
00:31:26,169 --> 00:31:28,428
to tell AJ that she wasn't
a candidate?
603
00:31:29,338 --> 00:31:30,982
But I know it was
the right thing to do.
604
00:31:31,007 --> 00:31:32,339
The right thing to do for who?
605
00:31:32,491 --> 00:31:34,842
The patient, the pharma company
or for you?
606
00:31:34,936 --> 00:31:38,395
For everyone.
607
00:31:39,441 --> 00:31:42,424
If your father were still alive,
608
00:31:42,519 --> 00:31:47,096
and you had a chance to save
him with this trial,
609
00:31:47,173 --> 00:31:49,932
but he didn't fit the criteria
by a small number,
610
00:31:50,009 --> 00:31:52,130
would you make the same call
you did for Carol?
611
00:31:52,345 --> 00:31:55,180
I have spent all day
trying to convince myself
612
00:31:55,272 --> 00:31:57,440
it is okay to let her
into this trial.
613
00:31:57,500 --> 00:32:00,034
But I know that if I do,
she will likely end up
614
00:32:00,127 --> 00:32:03,020
on dialysis
when her kidneys fail.
615
00:32:03,038 --> 00:32:07,040
Fluid in her lungs will make her
feel like she is drowning.
616
00:32:07,210 --> 00:32:10,060
But what if she
makes it through?
617
00:32:10,196 --> 00:32:12,954
I don't see that happening.
618
00:32:13,048 --> 00:32:15,124
Carol is brave.
619
00:32:15,143 --> 00:32:17,292
She wants to help the science.
620
00:32:17,386 --> 00:32:19,813
But if I bend the rules
to let her in,
621
00:32:19,963 --> 00:32:23,400
her sacrifice,
it won't even do that.
622
00:32:25,377 --> 00:32:26,634
I am not going to torture
623
00:32:26,654 --> 00:32:28,546
an older immunocompromised
woman.
624
00:32:28,638 --> 00:32:32,784
She's already been through
enough. I won't do it.
625
00:32:43,395 --> 00:32:44,955
- You talk to Devon?
- I did.
626
00:32:45,007 --> 00:32:46,489
- And?
- I'll explain later.
627
00:32:46,508 --> 00:32:49,233
But we will do what's right
for Carol, I promise.
628
00:32:49,326 --> 00:32:51,086
We're out of time.
She's getting worse.
629
00:32:51,162 --> 00:32:52,920
What about
the immunosuppressants?
630
00:32:53,073 --> 00:32:55,401
She insists she's been taking
them. She has from the start.
631
00:32:55,424 --> 00:32:58,666
She told us she had headaches
off and on.
632
00:32:58,761 --> 00:33:00,912
She had seizures.
633
00:33:00,930 --> 00:33:02,837
Maybe she thinks
she's taking the meds.
634
00:33:02,932 --> 00:33:05,692
She could be forgetting
to take them,
635
00:33:05,843 --> 00:33:09,237
because of an underlying
neurological problem.
636
00:33:13,108 --> 00:33:15,593
How long has she been
tapping like that?
637
00:33:15,761 --> 00:33:16,869
For hours.
638
00:33:17,096 --> 00:33:19,163
It's the same consistent tempo.
639
00:33:24,788 --> 00:33:28,589
Her tapping matches the beat
of her heart on the monitor.
640
00:33:30,277 --> 00:33:33,010
Maybe she's hearing
her heartbeat in her ears.
641
00:33:37,726 --> 00:33:40,209
You're right. I can hear it.
642
00:33:40,228 --> 00:33:42,228
Must be a dural
arteriovenous fistula.
643
00:33:42,380 --> 00:33:43,878
An abnormal connection
644
00:33:44,015 --> 00:33:45,898
of blood vessels in the brain.
645
00:33:46,125 --> 00:33:48,217
Explaining all her symptoms.
646
00:33:48,236 --> 00:33:49,961
From the headaches
to the seizures
647
00:33:49,979 --> 00:33:54,298
to forgetting to take her meds,
resulting in the heart failure.
648
00:33:54,317 --> 00:33:57,634
So, her heart problem
is really a brain problem.
649
00:33:57,728 --> 00:34:00,038
And that can be fixed
through surgery.
650
00:34:02,066 --> 00:34:04,125
One second.
651
00:34:08,981 --> 00:34:10,481
Unequal pupils.
652
00:34:10,574 --> 00:34:11,907
Her brain bleed
is getting worse.
653
00:34:11,927 --> 00:34:15,010
I'll page Billie now.
654
00:34:16,097 --> 00:34:18,097
Dr. Austin?
655
00:34:18,248 --> 00:34:20,081
If you don't mind,
I'd like to monitor
656
00:34:20,175 --> 00:34:24,010
our patient's intraoperative
cardiac function.
657
00:34:24,164 --> 00:34:26,271
Of course.
658
00:34:27,943 --> 00:34:30,275
This one's for Nic.
659
00:34:40,530 --> 00:34:42,012
- Sammie?
- Gigi?
660
00:34:42,030 --> 00:34:43,456
- Sammie, Gigi!
- Gigi?
661
00:34:43,608 --> 00:34:45,958
- Sammie!
- Gigi?
662
00:34:46,110 --> 00:34:48,503
Sammie!
663
00:34:51,708 --> 00:34:53,507
- Girls?
- Sammie!
664
00:34:55,043 --> 00:34:57,619
Once there was a little bunny
665
00:34:57,639 --> 00:34:59,045
who wanted to run away.
666
00:34:59,141 --> 00:35:02,699
So he said to his mother,
"I'm running away."
667
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,534
"If you run away,"
said his mother,
668
00:35:04,628 --> 00:35:08,389
"I'll run after you,
for you are my little bunny."
669
00:35:08,483 --> 00:35:11,224
"If you run after me,"
said the little bunny,
670
00:35:11,378 --> 00:35:13,894
"I'll become a fish
in a trout stream,
671
00:35:14,047 --> 00:35:16,047
and I will swim away from you."
672
00:35:16,065 --> 00:35:18,382
So the mommy keeps him safe?
673
00:35:18,476 --> 00:35:21,827
Yes, you see? No matter
what the little bunny does,
674
00:35:21,978 --> 00:35:23,387
he's always protected.
675
00:35:23,481 --> 00:35:27,483
Like you protected me
from the dragon?
676
00:35:27,501 --> 00:35:29,168
That's right, Gigi.
677
00:35:33,175 --> 00:35:35,507
Pickups and
dural scissors to me.
678
00:35:37,070 --> 00:35:38,594
Opening the dura now.
679
00:35:44,686 --> 00:35:46,518
It was unavoidable.
680
00:35:46,670 --> 00:35:49,856
Two large bore suctions.
681
00:35:50,083 --> 00:35:52,750
Sutures. We have
to repair the sinus.
682
00:35:52,842 --> 00:35:55,195
Cardiac doppler to me.
683
00:35:57,090 --> 00:35:59,440
We got an air embolism.
684
00:35:59,592 --> 00:36:01,684
If air in the
blood hits the heart,
685
00:36:01,702 --> 00:36:04,036
it could be fatal.
686
00:36:04,264 --> 00:36:05,784
Chu, drop the head of the bed.
687
00:36:07,407 --> 00:36:09,266
Devi, flood the field
with irrigation.
688
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:13,338
I need a central
line to aspirate the embolism.
689
00:36:21,038 --> 00:36:22,947
Heartrate's stable.
690
00:36:23,039 --> 00:36:25,132
All good, man.
691
00:36:25,208 --> 00:36:27,041
All right.
692
00:36:27,061 --> 00:36:29,561
All right, let's keep it going.
693
00:36:54,481 --> 00:36:57,422
You can run, but you can't hide.
694
00:36:57,500 --> 00:36:59,342
I will find you.
695
00:37:01,170 --> 00:37:04,222
Wherever you go, I will follow.
696
00:37:05,675 --> 00:37:07,916
We will go to the Mayo Clinic
together.
697
00:37:08,010 --> 00:37:09,804
And wherever the road
leads after that.
698
00:37:09,829 --> 00:37:12,795
But it will lead back here,
to Chastain.
699
00:37:12,797 --> 00:37:15,016
Because you will get better.
700
00:37:15,168 --> 00:37:17,501
You will operate again.
701
00:37:17,594 --> 00:37:21,429
And you will save lives
as you have before.
702
00:37:21,523 --> 00:37:23,365
Well, you don't know that.
703
00:37:29,940 --> 00:37:31,291
I do know
704
00:37:31,442 --> 00:37:35,186
that whatever complications
may be ahead,
705
00:37:35,204 --> 00:37:37,521
we will face them together.
706
00:37:37,614 --> 00:37:41,358
Because you are the great love
of my life,
707
00:37:41,494 --> 00:37:46,139
and I'm pretty sure
I'm the great love of yours.
708
00:37:49,885 --> 00:37:51,793
It's gonna be okay.
709
00:37:51,887 --> 00:37:54,271
It's okay.
710
00:38:06,768 --> 00:38:08,552
So?
711
00:38:08,570 --> 00:38:11,204
Is my mother in your trial
or what?
712
00:38:12,891 --> 00:38:15,585
No. I'm sorry, AJ.
713
00:38:19,065 --> 00:38:20,105
I agree with the decision.
714
00:38:20,175 --> 00:38:22,248
What?
715
00:38:22,385 --> 00:38:23,918
Wow.
716
00:38:24,012 --> 00:38:27,304
Wow. I really expected more
from you.
717
00:38:29,184 --> 00:38:31,684
When Nic came into this hospital
gravely injured,
718
00:38:31,835 --> 00:38:33,813
I would have died to save her,
but I couldn't.
719
00:38:33,838 --> 00:38:35,021
No one could.
720
00:38:35,248 --> 00:38:37,356
I know better than anyone
there is nothing harder
721
00:38:37,507 --> 00:38:40,175
than not being able
to deliver a miracle.
722
00:38:40,344 --> 00:38:42,695
This trial
would not help your mom.
723
00:38:42,771 --> 00:38:44,197
It would harm her.
724
00:38:45,367 --> 00:38:46,902
But that doesn't mean
there's nothing we can do
725
00:38:46,925 --> 00:38:48,492
for your mother.
726
00:38:49,778 --> 00:38:50,945
I'm...
727
00:38:51,072 --> 00:38:54,456
actually a little relieved.
728
00:38:56,210 --> 00:38:57,601
If I'd qualified for the trial,
729
00:38:57,619 --> 00:39:01,713
I'd have given it
everything I've got.
730
00:39:01,940 --> 00:39:03,257
But...
731
00:39:04,568 --> 00:39:07,034
I'm tired.
732
00:39:07,054 --> 00:39:11,306
Part of me was doing it for you.
733
00:39:16,806 --> 00:39:18,139
Wow. Mom, I'm sorry.
734
00:39:18,291 --> 00:39:20,807
I-I didn't mean
to push this on you.
735
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,050
Hush. Hush, son.
736
00:39:23,070 --> 00:39:26,114
You've been an angel.
737
00:39:28,635 --> 00:39:30,311
Carol, I'm
gonna call your oncologist
738
00:39:30,335 --> 00:39:32,969
about starting you
on palliative care right away.
739
00:39:33,139 --> 00:39:35,489
It's not hospice.
740
00:39:35,641 --> 00:39:36,916
You don't need that yet.
741
00:39:37,067 --> 00:39:40,402
No, no. Palliative care doctors
will treat your symptoms
742
00:39:40,422 --> 00:39:44,090
and make sure you live
your best life without pain.
743
00:39:44,240 --> 00:39:46,219
It's something
we should've started
744
00:39:46,242 --> 00:39:47,668
the day you were diagnosed.
745
00:39:48,487 --> 00:39:51,746
Studies have shown that people
with metastatic lung cancer
746
00:39:51,766 --> 00:39:53,266
can actually live longer...
747
00:39:53,492 --> 00:39:54,992
- And better.
- ...than those who continue
748
00:39:55,010 --> 00:39:57,844
aggressive
and sometimes harmful treatment.
749
00:39:57,996 --> 00:40:01,014
And this will give us more time
to do the things that we love.
750
00:40:01,108 --> 00:40:02,108
Together.
751
00:40:02,277 --> 00:40:06,737
AJ, honey, I would love that.
752
00:40:09,599 --> 00:40:11,192
That should heal in a few weeks.
753
00:40:11,286 --> 00:40:14,268
And your neurologic symptoms
should start resolving soon.
754
00:40:14,289 --> 00:40:15,846
The fistula in your brain
755
00:40:15,940 --> 00:40:17,014
didn't just cause headaches.
756
00:40:17,032 --> 00:40:18,532
It affected your memory.
757
00:40:18,684 --> 00:40:20,867
That made you forget
to take the meds,
758
00:40:21,019 --> 00:40:22,353
which led to the rejection.
759
00:40:22,371 --> 00:40:24,855
- And my heart?
- We've begun treatment,
760
00:40:24,873 --> 00:40:28,050
and your heart is already
showing signs of recovery.
761
00:40:29,211 --> 00:40:32,346
Dr. Hawkins made the diagnosis.
762
00:40:33,641 --> 00:40:35,391
Dr. Hawkins.
763
00:40:36,052 --> 00:40:38,436
How can I thank you?
764
00:40:39,871 --> 00:40:42,106
All of you.
765
00:40:42,983 --> 00:40:45,233
Get some rest.
766
00:40:56,164 --> 00:41:00,041
I wasn't sure if I
was gonna tell you this, but...
767
00:41:05,414 --> 00:41:08,007
My wife was an organ donor.
768
00:41:09,068 --> 00:41:11,635
And she saved a lot of lives.
769
00:41:14,923 --> 00:41:16,474
Including yours.
770
00:41:19,003 --> 00:41:20,853
What?
771
00:41:25,860 --> 00:41:27,585
I...
772
00:41:27,677 --> 00:41:30,320
I have your wife's heart?
773
00:41:33,701 --> 00:41:36,284
Can I see her picture?
774
00:41:49,442 --> 00:41:51,032
I do have a favor to ask.
775
00:41:51,110 --> 00:41:52,885
Yeah, anything.
776
00:41:53,036 --> 00:41:54,945
Could I introduce you
to my daughter?
777
00:41:57,041 --> 00:41:59,057
Of course.
778
00:42:10,463 --> 00:42:12,887
Gigi, I want you to meet
a very special person.
779
00:42:13,056 --> 00:42:16,409
This is Hannah.
Hannah, this is Gigi.
780
00:42:16,559 --> 00:42:18,485
Hi, Gigi.
781
00:42:18,579 --> 00:42:20,329
Hi.
782
00:42:33,911 --> 00:42:35,469
Can we listen?
783
00:42:36,579 --> 00:42:38,655
Yeah.
