Undocumented Mothers."

I'm here to make sure that

the hospital's medical network.

So you'll have instant access

become the future of medicine.

Dr. Kay-poor.

- Mm.

- It's Kapoor!

- I refuse.

- Okay, Todd, here's the deal.

Since we are not gonna

cut anything major
from this budget,

we're gonna make a lot of
small cuts to each department.

- My commanding officer would
call that the Fabian Strategy.

- That's the one.

- You have no idea

- No, I do not.
- Max, you got a sec?

You have, uh, seven

dual-chamber
pacemaker surgeries

on the books for tomorrow?
- That's right.

- Yeah, so those pacemakers
are made in Mexico,

but the American inventors
charge three times as much,

so we're gonna
cancel the order,

place it directly with the
manufacturer in Mexico city.

It's gonna save us 50,000,

but it's gonna, uh, have
to push your surgeries.

- [sighs]
Why not save money on shipping

and just have me do
the surgeries in Mexico?

- No, that--
that was sarcasm.

- That was genius.

Mexico's opening tons
of new clinics

in response to our
skyrocketing medical costs.

We could pay for you and your
patients to fly to Mexico,

it's gonna save them in
co-pays, and us, like, 50--

$100,000.

- So my patients are supposed
to just go to Mexico tomorrow?

- Yeah.
Only if they're content with

getting the same surgery,
with the same surgeon

for less money
and a better view.

- Sure.

Why wouldn't I be happy about
outsourcing American jobs?

That also--
both: Sarcasm.

I think both the conch shell

- Knock knock.

I hate to interrupt
the creative process,

but I have the results
of your biopsy.

The mass in your stomach

turned out to be a Primitive
Neuroectodermal Tumor.

- Tumor?

- The good news is,
it's benign.

Surgeons should be able
to remove it,

and Cephas will make
a full recovery.

- What caused it?

- Tumors are very sensitive
to hormone levels

inside the body,
and in Cephas' case,

he had an excessive amount
of cortisol,

which is one of the body's
main stress hormones.

- [huffs]

How does a 13-year-old
get a tumor from stress?

- That's what
I'd like to find out.

- Dr. Sharpe didn't
say anything

about the tumor
being in my brain.

- No, no, no, no.
Um...

that's a little misleading.

Psych is not just about what's
going on in your head.

Because what is going on
up there

can affect
your entire body, right?

In your case, excessive
cortisol levels caused a tumor,

but cortisol is triggered by
PTSD, stress, anxiety--

- But, I don't have
any of those things.

PTSD?

My life was pretty boring
until I came here.

- Okay.

Do you have any stressors
in your life?

- I'm good.

Home's good.
School's good.

My biggest stressor
is the school librarian.

- The librarian?
All right.

What's happening there?
Tell me about that.

- She refuses to let me
check out some books

because they're reserved
for gifted students--

even though I've been
reading them for years.

That's it.

- But that upset you.
- Yeah.

But they're just books.

Really?

Ten it is.

he's okay.

I had Cephas answer some
questions from a Harvard test

known as "Unrest."

It is designed to, um,

measure someone's level
of social resistance.

- Social resistance?

- When people like us oppose
the values and policies

of the dominant culture.
- That's right.

- And what does that
have to do with--

- Your son, he feels threatened
on a daily basis.

Like everything he's earned can
just be taken away.

He's disenfranchised.

But because his life is
seemingly free from all this,

because he can't name it,
he's internalizing it.

- Name what?

- Racism.

No, I'm sorry,

not this time.

Many, many times I've played it
fast and loose

But this time it will
actually hurt patients.

the 13-year-old boy

who is lying in our OR

medical issues,

anything about it

The thing is, if they don't
actually end up in crisis,

then we can't bill for it.

Um, finally better.

No biggie.

So, it would save this hospital
a lot of money

diagnosis can be confirmed.

a dozen more orderlies,

be over-diagnosed

that may ultimately be
benign.

Amsterdam be paying for it?

- Fine, cut yearly mammograms.
- Really?

- Sure.
- Thank you.

- Except those mammograms

are actually money-makers
for this hospital.

- I walked right into this,
didn't I?

- If you cut mammograms paid
for by insurance,

I'm fairly certain

it's gonna make your budget
shortfall even worse.

- What about mammograms not
covered by insurance?

- So you're suggesting
two standards of care,

one for women with insurance
and one for women without?

- No, because that would be--

- Draconian.
- Yeah.

And I would be ashamed to even
be having this conversation.

- Don't be,

because I'm sure Castro
will cut whatever you want.
