- Hey, I know I'm behind.

Just go ahead
and have them start the prep

for Mr. Azad and...

What do you mean he cancelled?

No, no, I'll...
I'll handle it.

Okay.

Mr. Azad,
this surgery isn't optional.

You have pancreatic cancer.

- Had.

You cut it out in the first
surgery, remember?

- Right, right, we resected the
tumor in the primary surgery,

but now we need to go back in
to clear the margins.

Otherwise, the cancer
will just come back.

- Always upselling, huh?
- Wait, excuse me?

- After my surgery,
New Amsterdam sent me a bill

for 28 grand
after my insurance paid up.

- What?
Wait, what was the bill for?

- You.

It said you were a consulting
surgeon in my case.

You told me
you were in network.

- [sighs]
I-I am.

Look, Mr. Azad,
I'll figure out a way

to make this right, but we got
to get you in for surgery now.

- Well, I guess
I can't afford to live.

Consult on that.

- Thanks, but I brought
my own lunch to school.

- It's the first installment
of my loan repayment.

$1,000.

- Leyla, you didn't have to--
- I did.

I'll keep paying you back
whenever I have the money to.

My lawyer said a paper trail
would kill my chances

at a visa, so...

- Cash, right.

- Do you wanna count it?

- No, I don't.

I trust you.

- I'll try to have more
for you next week.

[indistinct PA announcement]

- It's Leyla.

Do you know what would
make the situation better?

- Hm?
- Ritalin, booze.

Sex with a stranger.
- Mm.

- Just so happens
that all the things

that actually work on stress
are sobriety-wreckers.

- What about meditation
and exercise?

- Yeah, I said something
that actually works.

- [chuckles]

- I mean,
there's got to be some crutch

to help me deal
before I completely lose it.

- Oh, wait, here it is.

Gum.

- I found Kyle
in the elevator struggling.

Diaphoretic, tachy,
tachypneic.

- And, madonne,
the diarrhea.

- All right,
let's get you to a room.

- [groans]
- Famous Kyle's.

Best calzones in the city.

- Oh, that's me.
I'm famous Kyle.

- Oh, no way.
- Wait, no way.

That's my favorite spot
in Midtown.

- Famous Kyle's Calzones
is Lower East Side.

Kyle's Original Calzones
are in Midtown.

And the balls on those
rip-off artist bastards

for calling themselves
"original" when--

- You ever had this pain before?
- No.

- Okay, any medical history
I should know about?

- I've got MS.
I've had it for years.

It's been acting up,

so I did
an immune modulator trial

three days ago.

- Azathioprine?
Methotrexate?

- It's...fecal transplant.

- For MS?
Is that indicated?

- No. Someone
was way out of line.

I'm sorry,
where did you get this done?

- Downstairs.

New Amsterdam.

A Dr. Mia Castries.

- Huh.

- Dude!
- Hey, hey, hey!

[overlapping shouting]
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

- Ah!
- Hey, no, okay.

- Oh, my gosh!
- Close the door please.

- They started it!
- Hey, hey!

It doesn't matter
who started it.

You can't
physically hurt somebody

because you don't
like what they said.

- It's not what they said.

It's what they did.
Isaac--Isaac dumped me.

It's his fault.
- Oh.

- He started it!
- Okay, okay.

I didn't know that.
I'm sorry.

Heartbreak, that's rough,

but you can talk to me
about it, okay?

No matter how awful it gets.

- The only one who's gonna
feel awful is him.

I'm coming for you, you freak!

- Okay, time out, time out,
time out, come on.

[elevator bell dings]
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Well, looky here.
What, is it Visitor's Day?

- Actually, I work here.
For Urgent Medicine.

Yeah, lovely little outfit
on the sixth floor.

Nice people, great benefits.

- And UMI is a subcontractor,
so I can't fire you.

Cute.
- Yeah, isn't it?

You know, the cutest thing
might actually be

UMI's seat
on New Amsterdam's board,

which I believe
meets this afternoon, right?

Which is great for me
because...

[elevator bell dings]
I got a lot to say.

Hey, I'll see you there.

- Can't wait.

- Hey, in my office.

- "Office"
is an ambitious word choice.

- Well, underestimate me
at your own risk.

I have a way to take out
our target once and for all.

In 2004, there was
a huge malpractice suit.

A patient died,
they settled out of court,

and that NDA just expired.

I can take that NDA
to the board

and blow the lid
off this thing.

- We can't.
- I mean, I don't want to

use it either,
but what choice do we have?

- I mean, we can't because
the board's already heard it.

Veronica told the story
at her job interview.

Took full responsibility.

That's what
great politicians do,

turn weakness into strength.

What they don't do
is show up at the OK Corral

at High Noon
with an empty gun.

We still have
the element of surprise.

At least she doesn't
know we're coming for her.

- Yeah, well, about that,

she kind of knows.

- Is this your office?
- Rude.

- Patient Oren Azad
got handed

an unjustified bill
from New Amsterdam.

Not only is it unjustified,
it is intentionally predatory.

- Well, did he talk to billing?

Sometimes they can
help negotiate that down.

- He did,
and that's where he found out

it was already
referred to collections.

- Yeah, where he can
fight it in court

with a bunch of money
he doesn't have.

- Exactly. But since
you are always the Mozart

of helping people not pay,
I thought maybe a little

"Goodwin special sauce" might--

- Floyd.
- Oh, I like that face.

That's a classic
"Max brings justice

to the people" face
right there.

- This is it.

This is what's gonna
finally bring Veronica down.

.

- You know, when somebody
breaks up with you,

it is perfectly natural to feel
a whole well of emotion--

sadness, loss...

- Revenge.

The desire to make his pathetic
life an ever-living hell.

- Sure, yeah, that's an emotion
one could feel, yeah.

Why do you think
you're feeling that?

- Because I-I liked him.

I spent my first kiss on him.

- Oh.

How was it?

- Good?

But then I got confused,

'cause I know
I don't feel things the way

other people feel things.
- Sure.

- So I decided
I should test it.

- You decided to test it?
How?

- I kissed every other boy
on the inpatient floor

to see how those kisses
made me feel.

- Ah.

- And none of them even came
close to kissing Isaac.

His kiss was...different.

I don't know.
He made me feel something.

- Hmm.
- But then he found out.

He should have been happy.

The test proved
his kiss was the best one,

but instead he dumped me

in front of everyone.

And now he's gonna pay.

- Did you ever consider

that Isaac might feel another
emotion other than happiness,

after he learned
about the kissing?

♪

- If you...hurt a person

that you really like,
even by accident,

can you ever get them back?

- Well, all you can do is try.

- Mmm, yeah.

And worth coming to
the sixth floor for, huh?

- I love this place.

Best calzones in Brooklyn.
- Oh, yeah.

- No, no, no,
Brooklyn is Classic Kyle's.

Midtown is Original Kyle's.

Famous Kyle's--
the only real Kyle's--

is Lower East Side.
- All right, thanks, Kyle.

- How hard is this?

- Hey, I just heard that
Kyle Vincenzi came back in.

How's he doing?
- Oh, yeah.

He's doing much better

since I pushed
broad-spectrum antibiotics...

to reverse your unindicated
and dangerous FMT.

- Oh, I think you'll see that
it was indicated,

just not by his MS.

His neuroimmune issues,
his weight issues,

his compulsive behaviors--

they all suggest
a maladaptive gut biome.

- Right, well,
Kyle is my patient now,

so I am gonna treat him
with traditional medicine.

- No, that's what
I've been doing.

- No, what you do
is alternative medicine.

What I do
is traditional medicine.

- No, what you do
is modern medicine.

- Okay, um, I wanna say
awful things to you right now--

I mean, like, way worse
than I've already said--

but I know
that it's not okay

to rip someone's head off
and jump down their throat

just because you disagree
on a diagnosis.

Unfortunately,
I haven't found a better way

to deal
with my negative emotion,

so I suggest you leave very,
very quickly.

- I like hot yoga

and a week of a honey elixir
and leafy greens.

- Thank you.
- Feel better.

- Mr. Azad.
- I got nothing to say to you.

- Well, I just came
for a detail.

- You came to me for a detail?
- Yeah.

The, uh, gold package
with the hand wax

should do her right.

- You left in the original V8,
or you chrome it out?

- You know,
I'm not much of a car nut.

- With a car like this?

- Oh, yeah,
this belonged to my dad.

You know, he, uh...

I don't have too
many memories of him,

but him showing me
how to clean a car right--

that was one.

- Look, doc, I appreciate
the business,

but I'm still not coming in
for the surgery.

- Look, Mr. Azad,
the surgery's on the house.

No, in fact,
if you get charged one dime,

you get the car.

That moment could happen

or in a week, or in a year.

I hope it's soon, but, Helen,

you have a mountain to climb.

You're not climbing badly.

You're just climbing.

I've also seen a lot
of benefits

from bringing a partner
to the sessions.

This afternoon,
why don't you bring Max?

- So Reynolds came to me
with this egregious case

of overcharging,
and I looked into it.

It's everywhere.

Veronica
is overcharging patients

and then threatening them
with court

before their stitches
are even out.

Oren Azad wasn't an accident.
He's the plan.

- She'll claim she's doing
what every hospital does.

- Yeah, but how much?

Right now, Veronica's
an industry leader in greed.

- The board likes money.
They won't care if it's dirty.

- No, but the world will.

- You want to go public,
force the board's hand?

You tell the world
what you just told me,

and the hospital's reputation
will be in tatters.

We'll be synonymous with greed,
poor care,

and we may never recover.

So I need to be sure
you understand

you'd be taking down
New Amsterdam.

- It may be the only way
to save it.

- [sighs]

Big, fat scam right there.

New Amsterdam is robbing you,
putting profits over patients.

No, but like--

her truth with you,

- Yes.

- Not MS?
both: No.

- But my famous calzones...
- Are making you sick.

- But not because
they're not delicious.

It's the gluten.
Your immune system

is treating it as a threat.

- The inflammation it's
causing is what's triggering

your numbness,
weakness, the rashes--

symptoms almost always
associated with MS.

- I'm so sorry, Kyle.

- Why would you be sorry
that he doesn't have MS?

- 'Cause it's hard to accept

when something you love
is hurting you.

- Are you kidding?
It's great.

I finally have a way
to put daylight

between me
and those other Kyles.

Gluten-free calzones.

It sounds so classy I'll be
able to charge whatever I want.

on that diagnosis.

[knock at door]

- Juliet, come on.
I know you're in there.

We need to talk about
what you did to Isaac.

- Fine.

[door clicks]

Just get it over with.

- Look,
I know that he hurt you,

and I know that that stings.

But that does not give you
the right to hurt him back,

no matter how bad you want to.

No, no,
that's not gonna work on me.

- I'm not trying to do it!
They just keep coming.

They won't stop.
It's so annoying!

What is happening?

- I think that
it's because deep down,

you still care a lot
for Isaac.

- Well, duh.
Of course I do.

- Why do you think
you hurt him then?

- I was really, really happy
when we got back together.

And I thought
everything was gonna be

the same as it was before.

But he was different with me.

He was distant,

and I knew it was only a matter
of time before I got dumped.

So I wanted to win

before I lost again.

- Hmm.

Wow, that must
have felt strange...

first time winning felt bad.

- It's my own fault.

- How so?

- I'm callous-unemotional.

I'm not supposed to be happy
with someone else.

I'm clinically predisposed
to be alone,

and these feelings prove it.

- Holy moly, did you ever
get this one wrong.

- You making fun of me?
- No.

Feeling like
you're doomed to be alone?

That you screwed things up
so badly

with the one person for you

that you're never
gonna be happy again?

These are big emotions
that everyone feels

when they get broken up with.

Juliet, these are
the most recognizable emotions

you've ever shared with me.

- Really?

- Yes, really.

But you know what I think
these tears mean?

I think they mean
you're getting better.

- I move to immediately
dismiss Veronica Fuentes

as Medical Director
of New Amsterdam.

Can I get a second?

- Hi--
You started without me?

Hi, everybody.
- Veronica, welcome.

You are just in time to take
a vote on your termination.

- Mm, shame.

Well, I guess I could just
make it easier on everybody

and hand in my resignation.

- Wow, that would be great.

- But before I do that,

I would like to make
one final proposal.

I would like to acquire
Urgent Medicine Inc.

You see, there's this little
buyout option in the contract,

and call me crazy,
but Max's very weird

and rather ugly
grandstanding today

actually created
a beautiful opportunity for us.

But I want to be very clear--
this is not just a PR win.

This is a huge
financial gain for us

because once we bring back
our former patients,

plus UMI's,

we will be netting
approximately--ooh, let's see,

hmm, maybe about
$3 million a month,

give or take.

I'm sorry, I--who
still wants me to resign?

[tense music]

♪

- [sighs] What happened?

- How do you beat
greed personified?

You give her something to buy.

- She took the bait?
She bought UMI?

- Veronica just bought herself
a Trojan horse.

We are in.
