All language subtitles for Brilliant Minds s02e12 The Rider

I hope you don't mind feet.

My toes swell up like crazy at night.

Want an edible?

No, I'm good. Thank you, though.

I'm sorry. So you're, like, friends with
my dad?

I wouldn't exactly say friends. I live
in the unit upstairs. Your dad and I

have, like, an arrangement.

An arrangement?

Gross. It's not sexual or anything.

Oh, I wasn't thinking it was. What?

I water his plants while he's away.

Away where?

I take it you two aren't close.

Not since I was a kid.

When you saw him last, did he look
thick?

Seemed fine to me.

On second thought.

Settle in.

This stuff hits quick.

Troy Green.

I know that this past week has been
difficult without Drs. Nash and Marcus.

But like the brain, we have the capacity
to adapt, and adaptation requires

cooperation.

That said, I know it's obvious that
there's been tension between Dr. Porter

me. That is why I want it to be known
that I am the doctor who treated his

mother. The gala speech that Dr. Porter
gave was about me.

I'm sorry.

Charlie, so you came here for, like,
what?

Revenge? I came here to be a good
doctor. Okay.

Calling a code. We have to go.

Smart move.

Taking away my leverage.

This isn't a game, Dr. Porter.

I am not your enemy.

How did you find that apartment?

You can pay enough for anything.

The only thing that tops your curiosity
about my life, Dr. Porter, seems to be

the fragility of your own.

You can go.

Okay, I finished setting up your dating
profile.

All I need is a picture.

Oh, can't this wait? I have a patient.

I see what you're doing.

It's about the thorn thing at the gala?

Nothing. Okay, look, the man prefers
someone simpler, with less baggage.

No, no, no.

Lauren just knows you're not the type of
woman that he rebounds with.

And maybe it's not a bad idea to look
outside the hospital.

Give the apps a chance.

Playing the field sucks, but it's worth
it to have someone to come home to.

I want that for you.

Not that there's anything wrong with a
woman being alone.

Nice try.

I'll think about it.

Betsy, look at you.

You are glowing. Oh, well.

I'm feeling real good lately.

But I got so worried when I heard about
your suspension.

Because you've been such a light since
the building collapsed, right? You ever

find out who reported you? Now, how do
you know someone reported me? You know

how these nurses can talk. Oh, do they?

Mm -hmm.

Okay, well, unfortunately, we only have
so long. My schedule is tight today.

What brings you in?

I'm sorry. Where are my manners? This
here is my baby D 'Angelo.

How cute.

My life has been turned around since I
adopted him. I'm sleeping better through

the night. I'm not having as many bad
dreams.

But the problem with D 'Angelo here can
yowl. And my neighbors went to my

landlord. And now I'm going to get
evicted if I can't prove that D 'Angelo

emotional support animal. Now, Betsy, I
can't just hand out emotional support

letters. No, no. No, no, I'm not asking
you to do that. No, no, get to know D

'Angelo.

Some days it feels like he's my only
reason to get out of bed.

Dr. Chandler to MICU. Jared, a cup of
coffee?

Um, what can I do for you, Miss Silva?

Okay, I see you wore your grumpy
stethoscope today, but I think you're

like this one.

Benson Bowman.

A bull rider in town with his touring
rodeo for a few days came to the ED

a fall. They noted proximal leg
weakness, but CT, x -ray, and utox were

normal. So I squeezed him in for an
appointment today.

And fair warning, I have a thing for
cowboys. Buckling belts, knocking boots,

if I faint... Let's hope there's someone
there to catch you.

Where's our cowboy?

Come on.

Mr. Bowman, I'm Dr. Wolf.

Yeah.

It's nice to meet you.

You're quite the musician.

Yeah, I learned from a fella in New
Orleans who said music keeps the brain

sharp. Indeed, it does.

So I don't see anything wrong with your
brain on these scans, but I do agree

with E .D. Your gait is peculiar. This
could be muscular or skeletal. I see

you've broken quite a few bones.

Yeah, that's par for the course. A
rider's supposed to fall, but lately it

like I could fall before the chute even
opens.

Just need to hydrate more, I guess. You
do have significant sensorimotor

polyneuropathies. Oh, you understand any
of that? That means you've got some

merit damage in your arms and legs.

Oh, well, I wouldn't need so many fancy
words to tell you that. That could be

the result of your extensive injury
history, but I would like to run some

additional tests just to rule out any
neurological causes.

Sure thing.

Yeah, I appreciate you, Doc.

I'm looking for Benson.

Anyone know where he is? Benson?

Baby? Hey there.

I'm Dr. Wolf.

Dear heavens, you are one handsome man.

You're a doctor?

I am.

They hear you're looking for Mr. Bowman.
Are you Mrs.? That boy wishes. I'm

Grace Ann.

Grace Ann Stevens.

Benson's my guy. All right, right this
way, Grace Ann. I'm Benson's doctor. I

can show you his room.

It's right around here.

Oh, my God.

Okay.

98 .6.

Totally normal. Benson, can you walk us
through how you felt before your

temperature dropped?

Yeah, a little woozy, I guess.

Look, it ain't a big deal, all right?
This happens sometimes.

Benson runs frigid, especially after,
you know, he has a BM.

All right.

Yeah, it's been happening like this for
about a year. Comes on fast, goes away

faster. Yeah, but it's never been like
that before.

That was something else.

Persistent sinus tachycardia.

What's going on with me, Doc?

I just discharged Miss Chen. Room 303 is
free if you need it. Thanks.

I can't stop thinking about this Charlie
thing. It's like John Wick levels of

obsessed, but with, like, stethoscopes
instead of guns. And his speech, all the

feels. I guess you had to be there.

I'm doing it in a drop -off van tonight
after my shift if you want to come. Oh,

I almost forgot.

I applied for that grant.

The mental health services grant that
Bronx General is sponsoring.

I didn't realize that was your thing. I
landed an interview.

Will you help me with practice tonight?

Yeah, of course.

Yes.

That's great.

Congrats. Thanks.

So, Erica is going for the same grant
that I wrote you a reference for. Yeah,

but I never would have even considered
it if I'd known she was applying. Why

not? Your proposal's great. These grants
are like a gold star on your resume. Do

you know how hard it is to get hired
after residency without one? No, but

Erica's just so good at these things.

Kinney is a nuclear -level overachiever
addicted to success.

Some stiff competition might be healthy
for her.

Betsy was arrested.

What? She got into a fight with her
neighbors. Cops showed up. They found

place crawling with cats like dozens.

When they said it was a public health
hazard, Betsy lost it. Where is she?

44th Precinct. Okay.

Hey, have you tested for Toxoplasma
gondii yet? It's a parasite transmitted

through cat feces. The one where rats
fall in love with cats? Right. Some say

that Toxo could be what's behind the
misconception of the crazy cat lady. The

pathogen alters the neurons to spark
obsession.

Maybe I got Toxo because I keep bringing
home strays from the bar. That's an

interesting theory, but fringe.

I'll look into it. Thanks.

No, no, and no.

Benson's mixed neurologic exam.

His autonomic instability, his intensely
sweaty palms.

None of these symptoms are explained by
our in -house workup, but it is notable

that the life of a pro bull rider is
full of close contact exposures.

Manure, dirt, fertilizers, other
animals, even spiders.

Rodeo trailers travel, right? Like a
circus, it's feasible that southern and

western pathogens are at play.
Especially if he naps in hay.

Hay naps.

Really? I mean, how much do any of us
actually know about a rodeo? I know

Carter. You might be onto something, Dr.
Porter.

Benton's tachycardia is concerning.

Whatever's happening could be silently
worsening.

Best thing we can do for him now is put
ourselves in his... boots?

Sounds like we're going to the rodeo.

Welcome to the Empire State Livestock
Show and Rodeo.

Where should we start?

Well, we'll need to talk to the tour
manager and get samples from the dirt in

the arena as well as from any fertilizer
feed that Benson might have come in

contact with. I read that riders can get
sick from their bulls, so maybe we get

some specimen from old Elsie.

Elsie? Those are boys.

They don't teach you all that in med
school?

That would be a vet school.

Heard that, Buckle Bunny.

Some Rodeo 101 for you city flickers.

Barrel racers, like me, travel with our
horses, but bull riders draw a new bull

for each competition.

Which means there's not just one LC for
you to get specimens from, but... three.

Well, we need samples from both ends.

Dr. Wolf, you and I have got a date with
the Agricultural Expo.

I'll be at the concession stand.

I never want to see another bull in my
life.

Why do they have so much saliva?

Thanks.

So, I actually also applied for the
grant and I got an interview too.

Oh. Why didn't you tell me?

I guess I just was worried that it would
be weird. Is it weird? It feels weird.

Dana, relax.

I've been working in therapy to not let
my competition trigger me. There's no

reason we can't both go for it. That's
true.

And I'm glad that therapy is helping. I
wasn't sure if going for the grant was

bad or Sam or... What?

You've just been talking more about your
bio mom lately.

Have I?

Come on, we should find Wolf.

Wait a minute.

Hey, hey, hey, excuse me. Can I get a
little help in here? My arms are like

crazy.

Oh, no.

There's something on me. We all got bed
bugs in here.

I'm going to need your help. No, go to
hell.

Get them off me.

They're under my skin.

Have you ever seen the mummy?

When the little beetle dug himself under
the little guy's arm? They were

scarabs, honey.

Oh, whatever they're called. It was like
that.

Crawling up under my skin.

Have you ever experienced hallucinations
like that before?

Well, I've been knocked in the head a
few times.

Saw stars, but it wasn't like that.

It felt too real.

What about now? Are you still seeing or
feeling any bugs?

I feel right as rain now.

But that is how I get when I get my good
luck charm by my side.

It's the power of love and all that.

So sorry you had to go through that on
your own, baby.

I'm here now.

I'm going to take care of you. Well, if
this issue were psychiatric, it's

unlikely that your episode would have
resolved this quickly. We are still

analyzing the samples from the rodeo to
see if there's any connection.

But in the meantime, Grace Ann, keep
doing what you're doing.

On it. Not letting this one out of my
clutches.

Lab results from the rodeo figured you
should debrief Wolf.

Are you open to some feedback from
someone who's been awarded six grants?

You have my attention.

I used to walk into those interviews and
just rattle off a bunch of sassy facts.

It wasn't until I actually opened up
about what the grants meant to me that

committees lit up.

My advice?

Don't be afraid to get personal.

Thanks.

Speaking of getting personal, you.

Dr. Wolf?

My mentee has questions.

One, not your mentee. And two, now that
your C for Vendetta mission is

accomplished, are you really just going
to keep hanging around?

Are you trying to get rid of me, Danny?

Okay. And who says my mission is
accomplished?

Are you open to some feedback?

You're a good doctor, despite some
sociopathic tendencies.

Maybe spend less time trying to prove
Wolf wrong and show people how your

approach works.

I have a patient.

Hi. Everything all right?

Totally. I was just on my way to find
you. The rodeo results are in. Great.

And there is nothing relevant here, so
this isn't environmental or infectious.

What are we missing?

Dural Racer and the germaphobe.

Oh, excuse me. Oh, naked cowboy butt.
Whoops, sir. We should have put a sock

the door. I thought I told you to laugh.

They drank the hand sanitizer.

I think they're drunk.

That's just the beginning of our
worries.

Benson, why didn't you tell me you're an
alcoholic?

We don't call it that where I'm from.

My mama, she was born with that, oh,
what do you call it?

Fetus alcohol disease. Fetal alcohol
syndrome.

Yeah, the day I was born, first thing
she asked the doctor was, is he like me?

She drank all nine months of her
pregnancy.

That's what we do.

My family, my friends.

I was sober 12 years, then I turned 13.

I wasn't even drinking when I came in
here, though.

I was sober all two days. I didn't think
it was related.

Well, what you have is called a typical
Wernicke disease, sometimes referred to

as wet brain.

It's a thiamine deficiency caused by
chronic alcohol abuse. Alcohol blocks

thiamine, commonly known as vitamin B1.

And in severe cases, it can lead to
paralysis, coma, even death.

Yeah, but thiamine.

That's what y 'all got me hooked up to.
It's going to fix me. Well, it will

alleviate some of your symptoms. The
wide gait, the hypothermia. But I

your hallucination was caused by alcohol
withdrawal.

Which Grace Ann treated with hand
sanitizer.

Grace.

She was just trying to help me.

She's seen me through a lot.

We've always been there for each other.

We got this dream.

of owning this big ranch with one of
those wraparound porches.

We'll get us some rocking chairs.

And we'll sit back under that pink
Montana sky and sip a couple cold ones.

I don't think Grace would be too keen
sipping sparkling water instead.

Well, how would she feel about sitting
on that porch all by herself?

I've tried everything.

I worked all the steps.

I went to therapy.

I hired a sober buddy. Expensive rehab.

Cheap rehab.

I even tried hypnotherapy and those GLP
-1s.

I just wasn't born with an off switch.

Then we need to get you one.

Did you say neuromodulation?

Correct. Deep brain stimulation, DBS, is
a surgery that uses electrical impulses

to retune neural pathways.

One could also point out the similarity
to a modern -day lobotomy. I'm the first

to acknowledge the troubled history of
psychosurgery, but deep brain

to treat severe alcohol use disorder is
something different. I've seen DBS for

movement disorders, of course, and even
read about it for OCD, but never

alcoholism. That's because there aren't
that many people who can benefit from

it, people who are motivated to change
but who can't stop drinking despite meds

or therapy.

Well, that describes Benson, so how does
it work?

We don't know how it works. Not exactly.
But it does work for some people. Not

enough to guarantee abstinence
necessarily, but ideally enough to

urge to drink. Without impacting
anything else in the pleasure -reward

That is what it seems like. I mean, this
is at the forefront, team. Which is why

I don't even know why we would consider
it. We barely know anything about our

patient other than the fact that he's a
drunk. And if nothing has changed that

yet, then nothing will. This is a
disease like any other.

The window is quickly narrowing for
Benson. At this point, there are just

that many other options.

Good luck convincing the chief.

Let me handle him.

Well, if this doesn't make sense for us,
you've known this patient all of 24

hours. We need a more longitudinal view
of what he's tried, his commitment. I've

known Benson long enough to know he's
been trying to stop drinking for a

This is a powerful addiction, Josh. His
life is at stake. We could save him. I

hear where you're coming from.

Done DBS countless times. Whenever for
this indication, this is a real risk. In

an unapproved... I'm sorry, this is
about FDA approval?

You're the one who was pushing DBS on my
patient with Tourette's. That's not an

approved use either. And you said no.
Yeah, because Tourette's wasn't about to

kill it. I'm not just one surgeon making
calls about one patient. I'm the chief

to okay an unapproved surgery. With
uncertain outcomes and no mechanism for

reimbursement?

I'm sorry, I simply can't.

Dr.

Wolf, you got a sec?

Also, did you just drink hand sanitizer?

Uh, it's patient research.

I wanted to ask your advice.

I'm applying for this grant, and I have
to speak to a panel, and I'm not sure

what to say.

Comfort is in sight.

You want to get ahead?

Button up.

Be professional.

Boards love that in our line of work.

But enough.

I can do that.

Thanks, Dr. Wolf.

I'm glad to see your time in the clink
hasn't changed you. Well, I'm still

considering getting a neck tattoo.

But it's all been worth it if it means
that I can keep my baby.

I spoke with Officer Rogers, and he's
willing to drop the charges.

If we can get this situation under
control.

Betsy, how come you weren't honest with
me about how many cats you had? Because

it fluctuates. Even I don't know how
many there are sometimes.

People may think that makes me some kind
of old kook with cats.

But the thing is, D 'Angelo and these
strays, they make me feel whole.

I wake up with purpose.

It's been a long time since I felt that.
And there's nothing wrong with having a

companion. But when it gets excessive,
it can become a health risk.

As it happens, your lab results came
back positive for Toxoplasma gondii.

What is that? Never mind.

Okay, how do we treat that? While you
were exposed to the pathogen,

it's not an active infection.

So physically...

There's nothing to treat.

I mean, you said it yourself.

You've never felt better. But we still
need to find a solution so you and your

babies can have a safe place to live.

Nichols is being completely
unreasonable.

Benson is the perfect candidate for DBS.

He's tried everything.

There is no other option.

Relapses are often caused by euphoric
recall. His mind only remembers the

pleasurable aspects of drinking.

Do I have you for a Greek off?

Because I keep forgetting all the bad
parts about being married.

Maybe I need DBS.

Well, you can't get it at Post General.

I can't believe Josh.

Did Josh mention Dr.

Bo Pedrosa?

He's a neurosurgeon. He practiced here
before you came.

running a clinical trial on DDS, mostly
in patients with OCD, but I have a

feeling he will make a humanitarian
exemption for Benson. Well, why didn't

mention it?

He must have slipped his mind.

Carol, you're biting your lower lip.

No, I'm not. You're lying. What are you
hiding from me?

Dr.

Pedrosa is... Josh's boyfriend.

So you're going to cut out the part of
my brain that craves alcohol?

Not quite.

Surgeons will place electrodes in the
areas of your brain involved in your

addiction. It's still experimental, but
there is a private hospital running a

trial that we can try to get you into.
The goal is to reduce your cravings and

the anxiety you feel around needing to
drink.

How soon?

Can we just hold on for a second? This
is all happening so fast.

I understand.

But this is a once -in -a -lifetime
opportunity. They don't let just anyone

these trials.

I get that Benson drinks, but surgery
seems like a bit much, doesn't it? The

rodeo's like family. We got plenty of
people who want to help. You tell us

this is an issue, then the other guys
and I can handle it.

Grace.

Come here.

Hey.

I love that you don't make me feel like
I have a problem.

But I do.

I need to hear that. You know, there is
no guarantee.

It likely won't remove your cravings
altogether, but with continued therapy,

could make you a... Different person?

I've seen Benson try to get sober.

He's not the man I fell in love with.
This time will be different.

After everything we've tried to get me
right, we ended up here.

In this city, in this hospital, with
this...

Nut of a doctor, no offense, who's
offering me something that no one else

will.

This might be my one shot to get back on
the ball. In my mind, there are two

choices. Either we go through with the
surgery, or your career, your life, as

you know it, is over.

All right, I'm so sorry to keep you all
waiting.

Oh, please, don't worry about that.

Mr. Bowman, you're lucky you saw Dr.

Wolf. I wouldn't make time this quickly
just for anyone.

I've heard a lot about you, Doctor.

Uh, yeah, I've heard about you as well.

So... The way I like to explain this to
my patients is that...

Your reward system has been hijacked by
your addiction, and this is the first

step to getting it back.

Yeah, that sounds real good.

Now, this surgery is just the beginning
of a long journey. I like all my

patients to see a psychiatrist before we
move forward, and the people in your

life are essential.

They will need to be equally committed
to your recovery, or you'll be going

through brain surgery for nothing.

I'm here for Benson.

Good. Yes.

Having good people in your life is
everything.

So how have you been, Betsy? Well, it's
real quiet now with just me and D

'Angelo. But in finding homes for all my
other fur babies, I realize that this

city is...

full of cat lovers.

And I'm now a proud member of the Cat
Museum and the NY Cat Film Festival. I

even got invited to CatCon in Pasadena.

It sounds like you found your people,
Betsy. That's amazing progress.

And I have more good news. I can sign
off on D 'Angelo officially being your

emotional support animal.

And you two can both stay in the
apartment.

How does that sound? How does that
sound, baby?

How about you, Dr. Pierce? You ever
think about getting a cat for yourself?

Well, you make being a cat lady look
good.

Thank you.

I'm not sure I can pull that off the way
you do.

Dr. Pierce, I am a 60 -year -old widow
rebuilding her life.

I haven't got time for such trifles.

Life's too short.

You see me.

Think of all the surgery it could do for
us.

No more money wasted on rehab.

I could finally give you that life you
always wanted.

All I've ever wanted was you.

What if... What if this surgery changes
you?

Look, you heard the doctor.

I'll still be me.

Just a better version.

Maybe if this works, you could get it
too.

We'd be in it together.

What do I need the surgery for?

Gracie, come on.

You could drink me under the table.

That doesn't make me a drunk.

If you want to quit drinking, fine, but
don't put your stuff on me.

Look, I'm ready for this.

I need it.

But I also need you.

My good luck charm.

You have me.

You know that.

So then do this with me.

Come on.

Get sober.

for us.

Dr. Dane, we're so excited to hear from
you today. Happy to be here.

Your proposal is impressive.

Thank you. How do you plan on balancing
your grant work with your current

caseload? Well, I love working with my
patients, of course. But even in my

year, I've already successfully
completed three research projects. I

three -pronged approach.

Communication, structure, and
transparency.

Oh, wow.

That is a great question.

I guess I haven't really thought about
it.

You know, I've never really been great
at time management. It is my one flaw.

Why don't you tell us what made you
interested in pursuing this particular

grant? The statistics of how difficult
it is for patients living with mental

illness to get care are staggering.

And the cost that society then has to
bear is unsustainable. So, Dr. Dang, why

do you want this?

When I was young, my sister battled
depression for years before taking her

life. My parents made it impossible for
her to talk about what she was going

through.

She was alone, and she shouldn't have
been.

As providers, we should be there for our
patients, especially when no one else

is.

I want to make sure that when patients
come into our hospital, they have

who is going to protect them, someone
who has the patient's best interests at

heart.

No matter what.

Maybe if my sister had that,

she would still be here.

Good run?

Well, if it isn't Dr. Potster. Thank you
for introducing my boyfriend to my ex.

Well, thank you for introducing me to
the wonderful world of dating apps.

Besides, I did you a favor.

It was going to come out eventually.

Let me ask you something.

As chief, you have access to all HR
files, right?

So you know who reported me?

Carol.

You know, I can't... You don't have to
confirm nor deny.

I think it was Dr. Day.

I sit on the board for a grant she's
applying for, but she couldn't even look

me while she talked about her sister's
death.

It was a suicide, and Allison's case
must have reminded her of her sister.

It felt like she wanted me to know it
was her.

Why do you feel about that? Why do you
think I feel about that, Josh?

I don't like it.

Look, I'm glad that she had the strength
to stand up for what she believed in.

And I was wrong.

I have accepted that.

But I am just so frustrated.

Carol, you're a good doctor.

Don't let this convince you otherwise.

And as much as Wolf makes a fuss, he
cares about those interns.

Dana reporting me, he'll see that as a
betrayal, and he cannot handle that.

Well...

Then we should make sure that he doesn't
find out.

Vincent, should we wait for Grace Ann?

She ain't coming.

I'd do anything for that girl.

You just can't see what you can't see.

No. I've got to take this ride on my
own.

I'll see you on the other side, partner.

You're quite impressive, Dr. Wolf.

It's not easy getting people to accept
help.

Sometimes it can be our own worst
enemies.

I should have been home yesterday.

Yesterday.

Oh, you almost torched your winter wear.

Van and Jacob are lucky. They are the
only odd couple I cook for. Can you

my phone and see how long we'll bake
this bad boy for? Mm -hmm.

Oh, my God, Dana, the grand committee.

The email?

Quick, open it.

Dana, you did it.

You got the grant.

I got it? You got it.

You got it.

I got it. I got it.

I wish we both could have won. I guess
Blitzy's with you any day. No, stop it.

You deserve this.

Thanks.

It was tough putting myself out there
like that, but it was worth it.

I'm proud of you for being open.

I wanted to talk about my birth mom
during the interview, but I didn't.

My whole life I told myself not to think
about her, but now I am thinking about

her.

And I want to find her.

That's amazing, Erica.

Let me offer my finest stocking
services.

Brief charge.

Oh, well done.

I'm starting to wonder if I'm the only
food -motivated one in this

Shoot, dinner.

Totally lost track of time.

Sorry, babe.

You make it up to me.

I met your colleague, Dr. Wolf.

Nice guy.

He seems to care a lot about his
patients.

Like someone I know.

Yeah, yeah, he's a good doctor.

Don't really know him that well. Hey,
are you ready for dinner? Sure. I'm sure

we can still make a reservation.

How long have you been there?

It was actually impressive how you
advocated for DBS.

I wasn't sure it was suitable for an
alcoholic, but going after an

for this patient?

That's the kind of leadership that I
want to embody.

Addicts deserve a second chance.

Perhaps your father could have used one.

Your mother opened up to me during her
treatment. She said your father started

drinking long before she got sick.
Neither of you are responsible.

Neither was I. Is that how this works?

You tell me a nice little fun fact about
my family and we're all good? Charlie,

what do you want?

To be honest, I wanted you to fire me
after that gala speech.

I did what I came here to do.

But someone reminded me I'm a good
doctor.

Maybe I want to stick around.

Maybe run a department like this one
day.

Revenge is a ravenous beast if you let
it. This obsession with the past will

tear you apart.

Focus on your future.

Addiction isn't a loop.

It's a spiral.

You may think you're moving forward, but
it's only when you hit the bottom that

you realize you've just been going down.

I left the front door unlocked for you.

Made you a set of keys so you don't have
to break the window.

So what else can you tell me about my
father?

Look, usually I live for some drama, but
I'm not really trying to get involved

in whatever's going on between you and
your dad. Well, what's going on between

you two? You said you had an
arrangement. You watered his plants in

what? Are you hungry?

We could order a pizza.

What are your thoughts on stuffed crust?

When's the last time you slept?

I don't sleep.

Not much.

Your dad's the one who suggested
edibles. They haven't been helping.

He was treating you?

Kind of.

He heard me screaming in the middle of
the night. I have these crazy dreams.

Then I wake up unable to move. Sleep
paralysis.

That's what your dad said. I started
talking to him about my symptoms.

Monday, I guess I had a seizure.

Noah offered to be my doctor, pro bono.

He always liked to make house calls when
I was a kid. So I bartered with him. I

didn't want to feel like a charity case.

He'd be my doctor, and in return, I'd
help him write his life story.

He told me about you.

How he lied about being dead.

Wild.

You need a doctor?

Why don't I treat you on the house and
in exchange?

You can tell me what my father's been up
to for the last 30 years.

Got yourself a deal.

Greg, we'll get ahead.
