Previously onGood Sam...GRIFF: You're supervising

these doctors. You're
above them in knowledge,

rank and skill.
Act like it.

SAM:
I'm second in command here, and he shows me no respect.

I think I'm gonna take
the Cleveland offer, Caleb.

It's not about me.

Yeah.

[gunshot][groans]

[crowd screaming]

Dad!

My father can never be replaced,

but I vow to carry on

his legacy
to the best of my ability.

You've earned this.

And I say that
as your chief medical officer,

not your mother.

I'm Sam, by the way.

I'm Malcolm. Kingsley.

I'm the new director of finance.

VIVIAN:
Sam!

Mom.

It's your father.

He's waking up.

You were shot six months ago.

[strained]:
How long...

till I can work again?

VIVIAN:
You have to be proctored.

I'll do it.

I'll supervise him.

What, do you
have company?

And since you brought up Lex,

the next time
you want to help me,

don't screw my best friend!

My dad is here.

MALCOLM:
With my dad.

SAM:
The chairman of the board.

He's trying to go over my head,

skip to the end
of his proctorship.

You all asked me
to step in as chief.

And now my father is awake and
you are asking me to step aside.

And I can't do
that. Because I am

a better chief.

May the best Dr. Griffith win.

Uh...

Do you have any idea
why these were delivered here?

I didn't ask because I
didn't want to butt in.

It wasn't funny
the first time. Okay, sorry.

I-I didn't mean to be cheeky.

Dear God, make it stop.

You're right. No more cracks.

"Deliver to Dr. Sam Griffith."

Huh.

Huh. I don't suppose
you have any idea why

three dozen units

were delivered here to me today?

My understanding is that these

are very advanced
training devices.

SAM:
This is a prank,

and a very elaborate one.

So what is this really about?

Well, it's obviously a mistake.

But, well,
it's the kind of thing

that comes across
the chief's desk all the time.

You want me to make some calls?

No. I think you've done enough.

Okay. Well, either way, I win.

I know my dad.
This is more than just a joke.

I mean, is he trying
to distract me?

Maybe it's simpler
than that.

Maybe he's just trying
to embarrass me

in front of everyone.

These are medical devices.

And we are all adults.

There is nothing
embarrassing here.

I...Dr. Griffith?

Mr. Kingsley.

Hello.

Thank you for taking time
out of your day.

I was looking for my son.

Is this...

...the new tech you mentioned?

No. This is a mix-up.

A mix-up?I didn't order these.

I actually think
that my father did...

I've always said
a good leader

takes responsibility
for everything

that happens on their watch.

I'm about to handle it.Great.

Let's talk when you're done
with that.

Mm-hmm.

Find me when you're free.

Of this.

Yes, sir.

Look, I know.

He's tough, but
he is also fair.

He's open to a conversation.
He-He'll hear you out.

Except that his last memory
of me will be of the time

that I greeted him
from inside a sea of butts.

I have to get these out of here.

How did my dad
even get these in here?

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I don't understand.

People get appendectomies
all the time.

Every surgery carries risk.

The doctor last night said
that Dad hemorrhaged.

He didn't say why.

Do you know?

The reason isn't always clear.

But I'm gonna find one.

I promise.

Thank you.

Geez, what's wrong? Am I dying?

It's probably nothing, Tracy.

Maybe you felt

Okay. Yeah.The symptoms were
mild enough

to be mistaken for-- Oh.No. Mm-mm.

Okay, hey.

Whoa, oh. Sick people
have heart attacks.

Old people have heart attacks.

No one in my family
has ever had a heart attack.

Tracy.Go prep the cath lab.
I got her.

Tracy. Tracy?

There's my son, working so hard,
he forgets to find me.

Or eat lunch.

I'm sorry.

The boss is in town.Mm-hmm.

Heard he was a hard-ass.

Only if he sees you
making a mistake.

Ooh, that is a record.

I haven't even opened
my sandwich yet.

I saw you

seem to have a personal
relationship with Sam Griffith.

I do.

It-- I mean, it's...
it's new, but, uh, yeah.

[laughs softly]

I'm not trying to interfere
in that part of your life,

but we came up with
a plan for your career:

you climb till you succeed me.

Well, that will
be a weird day.

That'll be a great day.

And I don't want you
getting distracted

or derailed on the way there.

Do you not like Sam?

I don't like her pulling you
into her family power struggle.

No, that... that's not
what she's doing.

Are you sure?

You led her straight to me
at the donor event.

And this morning

I found you right
in the middle of her mess.

Just looking out for you, son.

Worst Netflix and chill ever.

Doesn't matter how many times
I see it, how much I slow down

or freeze,
I can't tell what went wrong.

Well, you can't
control everything.

Yeah, "leave it up to the
universe, I can't control it"?

That's how guys like you get by
with no accountability.

Oh, why stop talking
on my account?

Go on, get it out of your
systems. "Lex and Griff,"

"Griff and Lex."We weren't talking about you.

Sorry. It's just,
everyone else is.

Oh, no, don't get
me wrong, we did,

when it first
came out,

but we're over it.

I mean...

20 people have probably slept
with each other around here

since your news came out.

This isn't helping.

I'm asking the family
to approve an autopsy.

JOEY:
Did you rule out a burst implant?

We did, but after we clean out
this vessel blockage,

we'll have a conversation
with her plastic surgeon.

Who is it? Is it her?

Please tell me
so I can prepare.

Nobody's getting
ahead of me on this one.

Plastics is all me.

GRIFF:Plastics is a
waste of time.

Your fetish for
interdisciplinary medicine

is not relevant in this case.Push the dye.

Is that what this is all about?

You're protesting

my interdisciplinary approach

by littering my surgical lounge

with prostate devices?

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

SAM:
I'm sure you don't.

I don't see the blockage yet.

Well, there's all kinds of
blockages, aren't there?

Stubbornness,
pride, ambition.

It takes many forms.Ugh, give me a break.

The dye is all the way in.

GRIFF:
Her coronary arteries are clear.

How did she have
multiple heart attacks

with perfectly clear arteries?

I don't know, but if we can't
see what's wrong,

we can't fix it.

Let's get her to the ICU.

Okay, we know Tracy fainted,
but does she have a history

of fainting?It's not in her charts.

Chest pain after sex.
Unclear if they're related.

And she had knee pain.Yeah, that sounds more like

the kind of sex,
not the sex itself.

Doesn't explain
the heart attacks.

Transient spasm
in the large coronary artery?

That's a lot of spasms.

Maybe it's coronary
microvascular dysfunction.

JOEY:
Or maybe it's a spontaneous tear

in the artery.RHONDA:
Maybe it was Professor Plum

in the library with the wrench.

It is her.

[groans]

Bad enough you had
to call plastics in.

Did you have to call Rhonda?

Zip it, you pompous gasbag.

I pulled Dr. Glass in
because she

is the chief of plastics.

RHONDA:
I also did all of Tracy's

previous surgeries,
which were impeccable,

by the way.

Dr. Glass, uh,
my name is Joey Costa.

May I just say,
I'm such a fan of your work.

Are you gonna tell me
what's going on here, Jerry?

Um... y-yes.

The patient has
no family history

of cardiac events,
yet she's been having trouble...

Long pedal on the right.I'm sorry?

Speed it up. I'm familiar
with her backstory.

Down to where she lost
her virginity

and when she smoked
her first cigarette.

The former--
behind a Walgreens in Dearborn,

the latter--
Bowie's Glass Spider Tour.

The woman
is a talker.

[laughs]:
Oh, coming from you...

I started at Lakeshore

a glorious five weeks

before his overbearing ass
appeared.

He resents my seniority.
Always has.

1987.
Hmm?

Bowie's Glass Spider Tour
was in 1987.

Right.
If Tracy

is 40...
Hmm.

...she would have only
been six years old then.

She lied about her age.

She told you she was 40?[laughs]

Why would anyone lie
about their age?

Asked no woman, ever.

Do know if she ever found
a boyfriend?

Yeah, online.

There's your answer.

Guys on dating apps, they're
interested in two numbers:

your dress size and your age.

Either of them doesn't meet
with their approval,

they're swiping left.

This changes everything.

We have to run a battery
of new tests.

I mean, Tracy's real age
elevates her risk factors

for multiple conditions.

Well, she just made it harder
on herself

by not giving up the game
to start with.

Ah. She's trying
to win at a game

where the odds
are not in her favor.

I, for one, don't blame her.

Hey, Sam.
Hi.

I did some digging into how
Griff bought those devices.

All right, he still
has signing authority

on the Lakeshore account.

What? How?

Well, nobody ever revoked it.

[stammers]All right, not even after
he fell into his coma.

N-No-- Can you revoke it now?Look, Sam,

I like where we are.

I do, too.
Good.

It's just, I'm starting to find
my professional footing here.

And-and you and I

working together and dating...
look, it's complicated.

[stammers]

No, no, no, I-I'm not
saying I want to stop.

Okay? I don't.Good. Same.

It's just on this one,

I think you need to bring it
to your mom.

Oh.

Yeah. Okay.Yeah.

I will go talk to my mom.

I know, I know. I'm on it.

No more signing authority
for your father.

Why did he even
still have it?

It was an oversight.

I didn't think about revoking it
because he barely ever used it.

Well, today he used it to
litter my department's lounge

with a bunch of
useless equipment

right when I am
trying to prove

that I am a fiscally
responsible department head.

Okay, there. Done.

Listen, when your father and I

were building Lakeshore,
he wasn't part

of the financial equation
beyond donors.

I mean, he would schmooze

on the golf course,
that's it.

I managed

all his paperwork,

I balanced his books,
I cleaned up his messes.

And that is how CT came to be
the powerhouse it is today.

I know, but now, it's a pow...

Now it is a powerhouse

with a balance sheet
full of butts.

I know.

It's brilliant.

You know, if I say
"My dad did it,"

I look like I can't
control my personnel.

And if I say that I didn't know
about it,

I look like I'm clueless about
my own department's finances.

All right, let's look up
the contract.

Okay. Okay,
we're gonna fix this.

I already have a plan to save
$100K, which is a start.

How much were the devices?

What?

$2 million?!

Well, hello.

I thought I was
the only one

who haunted the lab
waiting for test results.

[laughs softly]
I was hoping to talk with you.

Much as I enjoy
my ringside seat

to you and your father's
cage match,

you're never gonna
beat him.

Not like this.

What do you mean?

You're gonna have to get
a whole lot dirtier.

I know where the bodies
are buried.

Why would you help me?

'Cause you're the only
Griffith I can stand.

You want my dad
out of the picture.

Don't you?

N-No. I-I'll pass.

This isn't about

digging up dirt,
this is about who's best

to lead the CT department.

Here's your results.

Thank you.

Tracy's estrogen is high.

Especially for someone
in menopause.

Or perimenopausal at least.

She must be taking
hormone replacement therapy.

Which could be prothrombotic.

We've got to get her
off the estrogen

and onto an anticoagulant.

Great.

Nice doing business with you.

Mm-hmm.If you ever want to do

any other business,
you know where to find me.

We could just wait
for pathology.

We're here now.

There are other patients
upstairs,

and they're alive.

[sighs]

Well, it's been a while
since I've done an autopsy.

I'm not as cavalier
as you might think.

If you need to do this
for peace of mind

or pride or whatever, I'll help.

It's not like a patient has
never died on my watch before.

It was Anders,
the way he looked at me.

When he called
the time of death...

Well, he was upset.
We were all upset.

It was regret.

No, Isan. You're wrong.I'm not.

I've seen it in my dad's eyes
my whole life.

He's in family practice;
thought I should be, too.

Not because he wants me
to be his partner;

no, because he doesn't think
I'm good enough to be a surgeon.

So, you have to prove you are.

Um... D-Do you want to
pass me the forceps?

What did you find?

No, nothing.

What?

I nicked the iliac.

That's why he bled out.

I killed him.

GRIFF:
Isan?

Isan!

Do you need something,
Dr. Griffith?

Uh...

Yeah, sure.

Uh, so, my golf clubs
are up north.

And I would usually
send Isan to get them,

but he's not answering his texts
and I am playing tomorrow.

Ergo, I am in the market
for a shiny, new set.

Uh...
[groans]

This thing is... keeps
giving me an error message.

It's broken.

It's not broken.
Your payment was declined.

[chuckles]
That's not possible.

It's a Lakeshore card.

Platinum.

It's not working.

Maybe just use a personal card.

That's a great idea.
You have one?

I meant, your personal card.

[laughs]: My personal card,
for a business expense.

Funny.

The packing slip says
the devices are nonrefundable

and I can't find a loophole
in this contract.

Is there anything
on the website?

No, there barely even is one.

The company must be new.
There's only a splash page.

Well, what about a phone number?

Yeah, the same one
we've already tried.

Nothing but automated
customer service.

Yeah, I can't tell a recording
that I need

a $2 million refund.

Breathe, and stay calm.

It'll defuse the
situation with Griff.

Thank you.

GRIFF:
Vivian! I need you!

Griffith. You're looking well.

Pyne. You're looking
exactly the same.

I don't know what that means,

but knowing you,
it's probably an insult.

I always forget how your
generation is just so sensitive.

I never forget how yours is not.

[laughs softly]

What is wrong with my Lakeshore
credit card?

What a stupid question.
What do you...

[inhales]

It has been revoked.

And I need an explanation

for the $2 million
that you've spent.

Good lesson for Sam.

A lesson? Who orders
a bunch of stupid...

[exhales]

Why does he sound like he's
transitioning to active labor?

My new husband
has some techniques

to help me deal
with my old husband.

Oh, millennial medicine.
That's cute.

I find it helpful.

[whispers]: If you don't
want to do the breathing,

try boundaries.VIVIAN: Mm.

Have a serene afternoon.

Yeah.

God, you're a fool.

Oh...A shortsighted fool,

because even if you do manage
to get your old job back,

your department's gonna have
a $2 million deficit.

I can make it up on the course.

I've got a plan. Just involves
a new set of golf clubs.

No, you have money.
You buy your own club.

That doesn't make any sense.

They're a legitimate
business expense.

Besides, that limited edition
copper set I bought?

What, four grand
with the engraving?

It's seven years ago.

$2 million amortized over time,

that's less than a penny a club.

That is not
what "amortized" means.

I want those devices
returned and refunded.

All right, Vivi, I hear you.

I'm not in the business

of making anyone's life
more difficult.

Give this to Sam.

It's the sales rep
that I dealt with.

Th-- What, this is
an actual, live person?

Bit of a dud, but he's alive.

He did the deal, I don't know
if he wants to undo it.

Nobody wants to refund
$2 million.

We'll see about that.Thing is, there is a way

you could thank me
for giving you his number.

Still with the stupid clubs.

They're actually smart clubs.

They compensate for
hooks and slices...Fine.

Get back to work.

Hey.

Ready for the Whipple?

Please, don't. No, no, no...Can I help?

Come on. What?[sighs]

[scoffs]
What-- Hey.

It's a conversation.
It doesn't matter.

To you.
You know, it's different for me.

They see me as your mistress
first, doctor second.

That's not true.

You have no idea.

All right?
It was already hard enough

for me to be
taken seriously before.

Now I have to work double
just to get my credibility back.

SAM:
Hello, everyone.

Thank you.Hey.

Thanks again for giving me the
time to study for this Whipple.

It's a lot.Mm-hmm.

Look, Sam, this is harder
than I thought.

It's like every time
I'm anywhere near Griff,

all people think about is,
you know, that.

Well, maybe you shouldn't
curl up on a bench with him

and whisper.

Sorry.

I'm still thinking
about it, too.

[pager beeping]

GRIFF:
Tracy Reynolds is having another heart attack.

What?

♪

Push 150 of amio.

Push 70 of roc
and 20 of etomidate.

SAM:
Do it.

7-0 tube to me.

Do you see that?

Look like lesions. Viral?

She's stable for now.

Let's get a sample of this
to the lab ASAP.

This might be what's
causing all her problems.

CALEB:
Are you gonna be okay?

Isn't your shift over?

I'm fine. You can go.

You don't look fine.

And that makes sense.

I mean, it's hard to
look at your mistakes.

Own up to them.

They call it a "fearless and
searching moral inventory."

Who calls it that?People in recovery.

You know, like, accepting
the things you cannot change.

Do you really think
appropriating 12-step mottos

is gonna help me feel better?

It helps me feel better.

What do you mean?

I got sober a couple months ago,

right after Sam
and I broke up.

I made a lot of mistakes.

And now I'm just trying to do
better one day at a time.

I had no idea.

I was good at hiding it.

Nobody knows yet. It's new.

I think if you can

accept that you did
all you could for this patient,

it'll be best for the
patients who still need you.

[door opens]

MEG:
Prelim path is in.

Your guy had a malignant mass.

It's pretty advanced
appendiceal cancer.

[door closes]

His tissue was falling apart.

That's why the sutures
wouldn't hold.

Well, I still hit the iliac.

Yeah, but if he hadn't had
cancer, you could have fixed it.

I know that you don't
normally permit refunds,

but this is a unique
circumstance. Uh...

I'm not saying that the charge
was fraudulent, I'm just...

"Cause"? Oh, come on.

The cause is that no one needs
this many plastic butts. Bernie.

This is for Tracy Reynolds. Can
you put a rush on those, please?

Sir, I need you to connect me
to your boss.

Sir? Sir?

Oh...DOCTOR: Looks like
it's gonna be a late night.

There's a Whipple
in the OR ahead of me.

DOCTOR 2:
Hope they got a good assist.

Trulie. Which one is that?

The hot one, third year, braids.

Apparently she "assists" Griff.

DOCTOR 2:
Oh, right, the Griff girl.

DOCTOR 3:
Explains how she got the Whipple.

[laughter]

Oh, boy.[laughs]

Oh, wow.

I know you were
not insinuating

that a tremendously
talented surgeon

got into an operation for
any reason other than her skill.

No?

If I can get past Dr. Trulie's
recent personal choices,

you certainly can.

And the only thing
you need to think,

let alone say about her is that
she is an incredible doctor.

And if she got
an opportunity

earlier in her career
than any of you,

that is on your lack of skills.

Not on her.

Hmm?

[exhales]

JOEY:
Labs got nothing.

It's not a virus.

Dr. Glass,
can you walk us through

all of Tracy's cosmetic
procedures, please?

Mm-hmm. Breast augmentation,
that was the start.

Lower rhytidectomy after that.

Blepharoplasty a year later.

Laser skin resurfacing,
she gets that done fairly often.

Where? Just her face?

Mostly. Few times on her legs.

Varicose vein removals.

How often did you do her veins?

More than most.

It's not Tracy's age.

It's a disease.She was trying to smooth out

her skin
but it wasn't age spots.

Joint pain.
She said her knees hurt.

Arthritis, headaches,
oral lesions.

Superficial
venous thrombosis.

Tracy has Behcet's syndrome.

Blood vessel inflammation
exacerbated

by the estrogen
supplements.

GRIFF:
None of which you caught

while doing every procedure
under the sun.

Oh, can it. Women get work
like this done every day.

You want me to screen them all
for rare autoimmune disorders?

She's right.

Damn right I'm right.

I didn't invent
beauty standards,

even though they do
pay my mortgage.

Standards.

Start her on a gram
of methylprednisolone.

That'll knock out
the inflammation for today.

And then we are gonna
get her a team

of specialists
to tailor her medications

to her specific symptoms.
I have to go.

Come on...

That won't get it here
any faster.

[gasps] The devices.
They're for teaching, right?

The contract
specifically says

that they represent
a "typical human body,"

except they are all
the exact same.

They represent
one body type,

and it is young, thin and white.

To call it "typical"

is biased and
discriminatory.

And it implies
that there is a standard.

And that is a standard
that my patient

nearly killed herself
trying to live up to.

Which nobody wants to argue
in the court of public opinion.

Exactly!

Which is why

they are gonna let me
return all of those butts

for a full refund.

Hello.

Wow.

VIVIAN:
Boundaries.

I mean, deep down, he knew

what he was doing he was wrong.

He just needed to hear it
in language he could understand.

Now, of course,
he also needed a new set

of golf clubs, but...[chuckles]

[laughs]That sounds like Griff.

You know, he just handed over
the information

Sam needed to cancel
the contracts.

Asher, it was just...That sounds less like him.

Hey. Want to help me
pack up some butts?

Only a fool would say
no to that. [chuckles]

So, you called them and you
got them to give you a refund?

Yeah, that's what they say.

I'm still waiting
on the confirmation email.

Well, so might you say
you butt-dialed them?

[laughs]:
No.

[both laugh]

I-I really needed that.

Thank you.
[laughs]

You always made me
laugh so much.

I still could.

How's Isan?

Uh, he's... you know,

it's a tough day, but he's on
the other side of it.

[phone chimes]

Ugh, please, please, please.

Ha!
[laughs, sighs]

There's the email.

Butts refunded in full.

What is the company called?

[stammers]
Uh, I think it Emoti-Med.

This says that
the $2 million refund

is coming from
"The Waxman Corporation."

Well, that's okay-- it's
probably the parent company.

No, no, no.

Waxman?

Oh, my God.

Gerald Waxman.

[exhales]

Oh, Sam.

It was never about the devices.

I walked right into his trap.

Of course he didn't care
about the golf clubs.

He just needed you to think

that he wanted something,
that this was a trade.

Gerald Waxman, multimillionaire
entrepreneur and philanthropist.

Lakeshore's internal says
he's given a ton of donations.

SAM:
Way more than the two million his devices cost.

VIVIAN: This month,
Waxman pledged to give

Lakeshore a new donation.

How much?

[exhales]

$12 million.

[putter strikes golf ball]

Waxie just called. Apparently,
he was counting on that sale

to raise the profile
of his new company, so...

when you canceled the contract,
he canceled the donation.

You let Lakeshore lose
an eight-figure donation?

And pinned it on me.

I did tell you that the lesson
was gonna hurt.

Hmm.But class is done.

We can put all this
behind us and move forward.

Here's what's
gonna happen.

I'll go down to storage

where they boxed up my stuff
when I was shot

and unconscious
and you stole my job.

And somewhere down there
is a bottle

of 50-year-old single malt.

I'll take it to my office...

It's Sam's office.

You finish with your patients,
do what you have to do

and come to see me.

We'll have a drink,

and negotiate your surrender.

Thanks for sticking
around to chat.

Always.

Look, I respect what you said,

but I can't sit this one out.

I'm on Sam's side.

Not because she needs me,
but because she doesn't.

She is the better leader.

Sam Griffith just made a mistake

that cost Lakeshore
a lot of money.

And I am sorry to hear that,

but it doesn't
change my mind.

She will find a way
to turn the tide.

You don't sound very neutral.

And you are?

Man, who are you
kidding?

All this golf with Griff?

That's my business, son.

And Sam is mine.

Do what you want.

But I can tell you
from experience,

making alliances too early
in your career

can lead to disaster.

SAM:
You are gonna feel so much better

once the immune-modulating
medication

and the steroids kick in.

And your heart will
be healthier, too.

You must think I'm so stupid.

Tracy, I'm one of two women
in my department.

We're both battling how
we're perceived every day.

Baldwin left.

He said it wasn't my age,

it was the fact that I lied.

Can I offer you
my professional opinion?

You know, as a doctor?

Baldwin does not deserve you.

You're probably right.

But it's hard to find someone,
you know?

Someone you really gel with.

Yeah.

I'm sorry.

[ragged exhale]

I'm gonna come
check on you later, okay?

Okay.

Hey.Hey.

How was the Whipple?

Slayed it. But that's
not why I'm here.

Thank you for what
you said earlier.

I know it's
hardest for you

with the whole...
me and him thing.

When those idiots
were talking about you,

I wasn't thinking about that.

I was just thinking
about my friend.

The wine thing?

Let's do that sooner than later.

I would love that.

Me, too.

Shall we go tonight?

Mm, unfortunately,
tonight I have to...

drink with someone else.

Excuse me.

Are you Dr. Isan Shah?

I am. Can I help you?

You've been named
in a wrongful death lawsuit.

You've been served.

♪

Tell me how to hit him.

Happy to.

But like I said...

...my help comes with a price.

Rhonda, if it's less
than $12 million...

...I'm in.
