.

- OK, so the pain is mainly
in your upper right side.

And are you currently taking
any medications?

- No.

That's funny, though. [laughs]

- Yeah, that always
does get a big laugh.

All right.

What about any family history--

- OK, please don't be mad.

But I told a bit of a whopper
to get back here.

- OK.

- My real pain is in my soul.

- Mm.
- Uh-huh.

I'm gonna just--

- My husband works here.

We got in a big fight,
but I'm gonna get him back.

- I'll stay for a sec.

- He's amazing.

He's strong,
brilliant, gorgeous.

- Oh. Oh.

- Are you talking about
Dr. Kaufman from Plastics?

- Oh, his calves are huge.

I don't care if they're fake.
- Oh, my gosh.

I think I see him.
- Wait. The one on the left?

- Ooh, juicy!

- Yeah.

- Matt!

Matthew, it's me.

- Violet? Ooh!

Ugh!

- Oh, Stink!

Are you OK?

- I'm OK.

- Who's Stink?

- Oh.

- Matt's wife.

[upbeat music]

* *

- So apparently, they were
married for a couple years.

Then they broke up when
he went to nursing school.

- Kind of crazy
he never saw anything.

- Oh, that's the weird part?

[chuckles] What?

OK.

If no one else will say it,
I will.

A woman, an actual human woman,
married Matt.

- Oh, come on.

- Well, it's not tracking
for me, to be honest.

- Thank you.

- OK, now I see it.

- You guys are being rude,
you know?

- Ooh!
- Wow, wow, wow.

- Wait, I missed it.
What'd she do?

- Uh-uh.

- Matty the Kid wifed up.

[chuckles, snorts]
Well, you know what that means.

Final holdout, yeah.

Marriage?

No, thanks.

You'll never take me alive.

Get back.

[laughs] No.

No, not for Bruce. Mm-mm.

All that, "Get your clothes
off the floor,"

and, you know,
who picks the movie?

Oh.

There's a flip side, yeah.

Companionship, sure.

Love, trust.

Stability, I suppose.

Yeah, stability.

Yep.

I will never have that.

- Alex, may I speak with you
for a moment?

- Yeah.
- Kind of a tough convo,

so you might wanna
step away, Val.

- Nah.

- Well, fine.

Alex, the turnover time for
our patients is way too slow.

Now, I am not blaming you.

I am blaming the nurses
that work under you, like Val.

Sorry, Val, but I did warn you.

- I'm fine.

- See, the longer
a patient waits,

the less happy they are
with their care.

- I know.

Yeah, we need to hire
more nurses.

- No, this is not
a numbers problem.

This is an attitude problem.

Your nurses need more pep.
- Pep.

- I mean, look at us right now.

Here we are,
just gabbing away,

flapping our jaws.

- You asked me to talk.

- Yeah, and I was hoping
you'd be too busy

to spare the minute.

- Joyce, we're doing
our best, OK?

The ER averages 40 patients
in a 12-hour shift.

- OK, well, we need that
to be 50.

- All right.

Well, unfortunately,
we're actually down a nurse

today, so we're probably
not even going to reach

our usual target.

- We will reach 50 because I
am going to step in myself.

[bangs]

[laughs]

You'll see what
a little pep can do.

- Yeah.

- Dr. Henderson
back on the floor.

[chuckles] Scratch that.

Nurse Henderson, MD.

- Dude, how come you never
told us you were married?

It's kind of a big thing
to leave out.

- I know.

I wanted a fresh start,
you know?

I didn't want to be
the weird guy.

- Well, you are the weird guy,

and this would have
changed nothing.

- Can I ask you a question,
personal, you know,

divorcé to divorcé?

- Our circumstances are
a little different.

- I know, you're old.

But have you ever had
a situation where

your ex thought you made
a huge mistake,

and they really wanted
to get back together?

- [snorts]

- No, Matt,
I've never encountered

that particular issue.

We did have a nice talk
about how much

of my life insurance payouts
she was entitled to receive.

Was that helpful?

- Violet's just so sure we
need to give it another shot.

- Well, tell her
you don't want to.

I mean, unless you're still
in love with her.

- Right.

[PA system crackling,
screeching]

- Once again,
paging Dr. Emerson.

Dr. Emerson to Zone A.

Dr. Emerson, you are needed
immediately.

- [sighs]

- Back in my life.

- I left a woman
on the table, Bruce.

- Well, so did I--you.

Wait, hold on.
Wait, wait, wait.

I--I just don't think
I gave us enough of a shot.

- I broke up with you.

- Because I was emotionally
unavailable as a tactic.

I pushed you away.

I don't wanna get into it,

but your car was
shockingly dirty.

It gave me the ick.

But what do you say

we give this crazy thing
another shot?

- Bruce...

- We can hire someone
to clean your car.

- I'm gonna say this
as nicely as possible.

No.
- OK.

Well, the nicest way
would have been to say yes,

even if deep down,
you had serious reservations.

- It's over.

I'm seeing someone else.

- [snorts] Plenty of fish.

None that come to mind, though.

- Mm, slam dunk case
of strep throat.

Get those meds,
and get the heck out of here.

[laughs] I'm kidding,
but you are done.

All right,
cruising our way to 50.

Looks like a little pep
is paying dividends.

- If she gets us
to 50 patients,

she'll never hire more nurses.
- [sighs] God, I know.

We gotta figure out a way
to slow her down, you know?

Prove her wrong.

- I mean, if one
of her patients died--

- Val.

- It would slow her down,
though.

- Val, stop.

- Mm-hmm.

- She's kidding.

[knocking]
- Sorry to keep you waiting.

- No, I'm sorry.

I showed up here
totally unexpected,

like a jalapeno
in your banana split.

It's just that--
ooh, ah, goodness.

- Are you OK?

How long has that
been bothering you?

It's--it's fine.

Um, by stomach hurts
because my heart is lonely.

And I've been sweating a lot
because my heart is sad.

- Right.

Well, maybe we should still--

- I prepared something.

I wrote it on some TP
from the train bathroom.

[clears throat]

Matthew Ebenezer
Charles Jedediah Pearson,

it's me, Violet Elizabeth
Chastity Stokely Pearson.

- Hang on. I--I--

I care about you, OK, a lot.

But I just--I don't think we
have that connection anymore.

Our lives are really
different, and--and--

- Oh, OK.

- It's not a bad thing.
- Yeah.

It's kind of embarrassing.

I emptied the entire dispenser.

- [sighs] Violet.

- People probably went without,

and it was for nothing.

It's OK.

I'm fine.

Um, I'd like to leave now.

- Yeah.

I'll get the discharge started.

Um...

- Hey, man.

Your ex's white blood cell
count is super high.

We got to figure out
what's going on.

- What?

Son of a bouncy bunny!

- Can't you just curse
like a normal person?

- That's normal cursing.

.

- OK, abdominal pain
in the upper right quadrant,

fevers--that is classic

for a gallbladder infection.

I'll tell her she needs
an ultrasound.

- Wait, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- We talked about the touching.

- She's not gonna
listen to you.

You're a doctor.

Our community doesn't
believe in medicine.

That's why going to nursing
school meant I had to leave.

I mean, that's why
we got divorced.

- How are you people
still alive?

Does inbreeding improve
the immune system?

- Oh, OK.

Yeah, we're "inbreeders."

Who have you been talking to,
the Fergusons?

Because they're the inbreeders.

- I stand corrected.

I apologize.

Now, look,
I don't know if your ex

wants to believe this or not,
but she's really very sick,

so try and keep her here.

- So, yeah,
I gave him the tablet.

But I'm the aunt.

It's my sister's job
to monitor what he's watching.

[snips]
And done.

Discharged.

Another one bites the dust.

- Uh, Joyce, quick question.

Could use your expertise.

- Quicker.

I'm dialing you up to 1.25.

- I'm not a podcast.

So there is a patient
who's requested an MRI,

and his insurance
won't cover it

unless it's deemed necessary.

But catch-22, we can't deem it
necessary without an MRI.

- Oh, so dumb!
- I know. Yes.

Can you please call
his insurance

and tell them how dumb it is

so we can get him treated
and discharged?

- A phone call?
That's it? Of course.

Consider it done--with pep.
- OK.

- * You're a grand old flag *

* You're a high flying flag *

- Yeah, insurance calls
are pretty quick.

- Yeah, I think my last one was
only an hour and a half.

- That is quick.

The on-hold music is
catchy, though.

It's like...[vocalizing]

[both vocalizing]

- Violet, please don't go.

- Why not?

You don't want me.

- Well, maybe I spoke too soon.

- Really?
- Yes, but I--

I just need you to kind of
go through the motions

of being a patient
because that's the only way

we can keep talking.

- Are you sure?

- Yes.

Just--just please stay.

OK.

Hey, Dr. Ron,
could we order an ultrasound?

Violet really wants one.
- Really?

- Oh, yeah.

I love ultrasounds.

They taste so good.

- Oh. Oh. Yeah.

- So I put some feelers out
after Dr. Emerson said

she was seeing someone else.

I got a lot of contacts here,

lots of people in my corner.

They put the pieces
together pretty fast.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Is this seat taken?

- Uh, no.

But there was a huge puddle
of something on it.

- Nah, there wasn't.

- It wasn't water.

Something else for sure.

- Listen,
I heard some chatter--

probably not true.

You and Dr. Emerson are
seeing each other?

- We've been sharing some time.

- Uh-huh.

Well, I just thought
you should know that

there's some unresolved
feelings between her and I.

- Me and her.
- Her and I.

- We can look it up.
- Don't wanna look it up.

Uh, just a fair warning
that there might be

a little friendly competition
coming your way.

- Brooke's a beautiful woman.

- Who's Brooke?

- Dr. Emerson.

- Brooke Emerson, right.

No, you were mumbling.

I didn't--I know Brooke.

- Hey, if there's unfinished
business there, go for it.

- Huh.

- Honestly, I just
want her to be happy.

- I mean, that's
very gracious of you.

OK, well, I guess
that's why you're a chaplain.

[chuckles]

- Just don't come crying to me
like a little bitch

when she says no.

- Wait. I'm sorry, what?

- Oh, sorry.

I don't wanna raise my voice.

I said...

[whispering]
Don't come crying to me

like a little bitch
when she says no.

- [sniffs] Oh.

- How's it going
with your lady friend?

Seemed kind of intense.

- Oh, yeah.

Dr. Ron ordered an ultrasound,

but I can't find
the requisition code.

- Here.

I just saw you guys
holding hands and thought,

oh, maybe he is into her.

- [sighs] No, that's not it.

I--[sighs]
I feel like a monster.

- What?

- Not like a literal one,
not Dracula.

I mean, he has an excuse.

He needs blood or else.

- OK, you're losing me.

- The only way
to get Violet to stay

and get the care she needs

is if I make her think
we still have a chance.

- Hey, come on.

That's fine.

You're a good guy, and you're
doing the right thing.

- Yeah?

- I mean,
not with the req code.

You're about to put her
on chemo.

- Ooh.

- I'm aware...[clears throat]

Of where you and Matt
come from,

and I don't know
if you're prepared

to hear what I have to say.

- Oh, no,
that's not true at all.

- But I thought you all think

medicine is silly
and all of that.

- Sure, one tenet
of our religion

is that we heal through prayer,

but an even bigger tenet
is respect for elders.

You carry the fire of wisdom
through the ages,

and it is a blessing
to receive it.

- Wow.

I like that tenet a lot.

Perhaps I judged
Matt's cult too harshly.

Well, "cult" really isn't
the right word.

It's more of a commune--

organic farming,
harvest festivals.

Sure, there's
the ultra-religious nonsense,

but respect for your elders--

that just shows character.

- No, the MRI will
give us the evidence.

Are you not seeing the paradox?

Don't put me on hold!

[sighs] Stella, Stella,

let me know
when an actual human being

comes on the line.

I have other patients.
- Joyce, you know what?

These patients are all
taken care of.

So go see Mr. Reynolds in 107.

- 107.

- Yeah.

Yeah.

Oh, we got some real stinkers
lined up for Joyce.

- Those patients suck.

- That's--I mean,
they're just a lot.

- A lot of suck.
- [chuckles]

- Hello, Mr. Reynolds.

What seems to be the problem?

- China.

- OK.

Uh, can you be more specific?

- Well, first of all, they've
taken over manufacturing.

We used to make things
in this country.

- The gel helps
the conductivity

as the sound waves come out
of this transducer here.

- I love that.

Is medical school just learning
super fun words all day?

- Well, that's a lot of it.

[laughter]
- Hey there.

- Matthew!

Come sit.

I wanna show you something.

- I brought you a cup of water.

Not sure if you
still like those.

- Aw!

I do.

Oh, so this is a photo album
of us as kids.

- Aw, Matty!

- Oh, our high school
graduating class.

- Just the two of you?

- We weren't even
the smallest grade.

- Yeah, the grade below us
was just Ethan.

He lives in the woods now.

- Nice powder.

Where'd you guys ski?

- Oh, that's our backyard.

- I do miss Mount Pearson.

- Wait, you have
your own mountain?

- Yeah.

Mountain, lake,
a bunch of creeks.

- How do you think Matty
became such a man's man?

- Why don't we get started?

- OK.
- Oh, yeah.

.

- Mmm!
You made these from scratch?

- Apples from the orchard.

- Wow, all that harvesting.

That's a lot
of hard work, though.

- The young people do
that work.

The elders aren't allowed.

* The young produce *

* The elders consume *

- Yep.

My grandpa signed that
into law

right when he turned 60.

- Oh, I fibbed.

I made it seem like
I made the fritters

when, really, it was my mother.

- Look. There she is.

- That's your mom?

- Mm-hmm.

- Oh, my goodness.

She's a very
good-looking woman.

- Thank you.
- How old is that picture?

- Oh, that's from last year,
right before my father passed.

- She's--is she all alone now?

- Mm-hmm.

- It's interesting.

There is a path here
where I end up Matt's dad.

It is interesting.

- My grandpa pronounced us
man and man's wife,

and they released
about a million doves.

[chuckles]
- They flew right into us.

We were covered in poop
at our wedding.

I should have known
we were doomed.

- Well, I don't know.

It was still kind of
a perfect day.

You know,
our families were there,

all our friends,
everybody we loved.

It really felt like
we were exactly

where we were supposed to be.

- It was perfect.

- OK, so the pain is
right on the side?

- Yeah. Yeah.

- Joyce, your grandma
was German, right?

- Huh?
- Ha, Germans.

You know, a lot
of their wristwatches

don't go tick, tick, tick.

Hands go around smoothly.

Then there's the war,
of course.

- It's a little harder
than I thought it would be.

Haven't used the bathroom
since 8:00 a.m.,

but on the plus side,
I also haven't eaten,

so not much to get rid of--

maybe a little
from last night.

But we're hitting the numbers.

Pep, pep, pep.

Pep!

- [sighs]
Hey, good job in there.

- You too.

- OK.

[Brandy's "Baby" playing]

Where's that--is that you or--

- [sighs]
- Oh, my--[laughs]

I was trying to check my texts.

I guess, instead,
I put on "Baby" by Brandy.

Whoo!

You remember this one?

- Bruce, I'm trying to--

- Yeah, we hooked up
to this one.

- Oh...

- What's going on over here?

- Please, just ignore him.

- Don't worry, I will.

- A little dance party?

- It'd be a bit advanced
for you.

- * Baby, all the time *

- A little wooden.

What, you counting the beat
in your head there, bud?

- Takes a lot more than that
to make me wooden.

- Uh-huh.

OK, you got this one?

[grunts] Ah.

- So you dated both those guys?

- Yeah.

- [grunts]

I got that.

- Yeah.

Let me bless you with this one.

- Oh, no, I don't think
I got that one!

I can take that all day.

All right.

Well, how about this?

- Yes!

I got you.

- Oh, nice!

You saw that coming.
- I saw it.

- My man.

Are you getting this?
- Oh!

- OK.

Let's go take a ride
on the sexy canoe.

There it is.

- Snuffleupagus?

Now, that was a buffalo.

[chuckling]

- Hey, Joyce.

- How many patients
till we clear 50?

- Three.

But you only have
a minute left.

But, hey, you know,
you give it a good run.

- I can do this.

- Joyce, you don't
have to do this.

It's fine. Oh. Ah!

- You know, that reminds me--
- Enough!

You're clearly a very lonely
and bored man.

- Hey!

- But there is
a vibe between us.

I feel it. You feel it.

It's undeniable.

I think we need to explore this
over drinks tonight

outside the hospital.

- OK.
- Great.

Discharged!

Hey!

You listen to me, the doctor.

Our patient needs an MRI,
and you are gonna pay for it.

- We're still on hold.

- OK, yeah, just send them
to Imaging.

We'll fight this later.

Discharged!

- Oh, my gosh. Only one left!

- Is it weird that
I'm rooting for her?

- So am I!

- When I was 39,
a tall man named Robert

took me to the Rainforest Café

and bought me this possum
in the gift shop.

He kissed me during
the tropical rainstorm show.

It changed the nature
of my desire, OK?

But if you take
that medicine right now,

I will give you Mr. Possum.

Discharge!
- Hey!

- I lied.

Ha-ha-ha!

I did it. I did it.

I did it.

Um, carry me.

- Oh, dear.
- No.

- OK.

Val! Valerie?

- 9 acres for $40,000?

That can't be right.

- [humming]

- You seem psyched.

- I can feel it.

He wants to be with me.

- Well, Matt cares about you.

That's definitely true.

- Nothing has changed
between us.

- Well, some things
have changed.

I only mean
Matt lives here now.

He's made a lot of new friends,
good friends.

- You can't change your heart.

- You can change your heart.

- Matt loves me.

- Well, then why has
he never mentioned you?

No, no.

I--I'm sorry.

He does care about you.

That's why he's trying
to keep you here--to help.

- Keep me here?

What does that mean?

- Um, nothing.

I--I--I only meant--

- Is he pretending he has
feelings just to keep me here?

[sobbing]

- Oh.
- No.

[high-pitched crying]

- Oh.

- [wails]

.

- So none of this was real?
- You're sick, Vi.

And I--
- Matt Pearson, you are a liar.

Liar, liar, pants on fire.

- Hey, don't say things
we can't take back.

- But you lied!

You said you'd be with me
forever.

And then you left
to follow your dream.

What about my dream,
to have a family?

To have people see me
on the street and say,

"Hey, there's that person
with the family,

the one that exists."

- Violet, I want that for you.

But your gallbladder
is infected.

And if you don't get surgery,
you could die.

That's the truth.

And I don't know what I'd do
if something happened to you.

So I'm asking you to trust me.

- I do trust you.

I came all this way for you.

But I have to know
if your feelings are gone

or if there's still
some in there.

- Violet, I told you.

- Show me with a kiss,
one kiss.

And if you truly feel nothing,
I'll let it go.

I will get this stupid surgery,
and I will let you go.

- See?
- Yeah.

It wasn't as good.

- Uh, yeah.

- It gets better than that?

Damn.

- The demands on you guys are
so high, almost impossible.

- Exactly!

Joyce, we are spread too thin--

- And yet possible,
because I did it.

- OK.
I mean, you did just throw up

and then down, like,
three Gatorades.

So doesn't that prove
we need more staff?

- I don't think so. No.

But you have earned
a newfound respect from me.

- What I want is more staff.

- OK, I'm gonna give you
one more half shift per week.

One. Are you happy?

- Not really.
- Well, neither am I.

So that's evidence
of a good compromise.

[grunts]

- So every Tuesday night,

they clear the tables, right?

They bring in a DJ.

I was scared of being alone.

And that's crazy,
because I'm not alone.

I've got Chaplain Steve, who's
honestly a really great guy.

- We have to go.

- Oh, we're going.

Are you kidding me?
- Oh!

We are going.
- Yeah.

I don't know. We just click.

- What about Brooke?

- Hmm? Who's Brooke?

- Hey, Matt!

- Oh, Violet's about
to go into surgery.

- Yeah, got it.

Concerning this cult of yours--

- Homestead.
- Yeah, whatever.

Can anyone join and retire
to the skiing mountain

with the women that love
the old people and all that?

- Yeah.

Outsiders just have
to join the religion...

- I can do that.
- And get double circumcised.

- Say what?

It's sad how these people live

uneducated about the world.

It may seem nice,
but it's dark.

It's not good.

- Sorry I blew up your spot.

- Nah, it's for the best.

If anything,
I feel kind of guilty.

- You only lied to help her.

Give yourself a break.

- No, I kind of held back
on the kiss.

Didn't give her
the full Matt magic.

- Oh, really?
- Yeah.

Probably only gave her,
like, 25%.

- [laughs] OK, player.

- I feel a lot better.

I'm not sure if it's because
I got closure with Matt

or because a doctor
did science on me,

but either way,
this trip was a success.

And Matt?

He's where he should be.

I wanted to take him home
to his family,

but maybe this is his family.

Oh, and also, they let me take
as many of these as I want.

[bell clangs]
