Original subtitles

: Previously, on Doc.

Amy, me and Rachel are back together.

You said you were never going back to her.

I'm pregnant. He almost seems detached

from the situation.

- I had a memory of the night Danny died.

This is exactly what I was worried about.

You're just gonna have to deal with that.

I'm headed to New York tomorrow

to check in on my clinical trial.

I heard it's being transferred here.

- I'm Graham. - Your parents gave, what,

20 mil to the hospital?

I have a family commitment this afternoon.

You have an hour. Two and a half hours?

You'll stay late and finish the hand-off list.

You know, I really wish I could.

Hey!

Somebody help her!

Hurry! Help!

The train's coming!

Hey.

So, uh... blueberry, cinnamon, and banana muffins?

Just in case your cravings kicked in.

And you just left them at my door?

What is that, a hit-and-run?

I didn't wanna wake you. And I figured you might still

be pissed at me for disappearing the other morning.

- Oh, uh... - I am sorry.

Wasn't my best moment.

Yeah, I get it.

I kind of wanted to tell you something.

Okay.

It's just that...

I love you.

Uh, don't say that 'cause you think you have to.

I wouldn't.

And you don't have to say it back

if you're not ready.

Well, I appreciate that, but...

I love you, too.

That definitely makes things easier.

Yeah.

I don't want to go to school.

I want to go to Baltimore. Mommy's in Baltimore.

I know. I know, sweetie, but Mommy's not gonna be

gone for long, okay?

It's just Nan-nan's been feeling a little sick lately.

You remember that thing with her breathing?

Okay, well, Mommy wants to see Nan-nan

the same way you want to see Mommy.

Is she gonna die like Grandpa?

No, sweetie. She's not gonna die.

It's just, sometimes, when people get older,

they have problems with their health.

But that's what hospitals and doctors are for.

Okay. I'm happy you're home, Daddy.

Yeah, me too, kiddo. All right. Say, "shalom."

Shalom means "hello."

Yes, but it also means "goodbye"

And it means "peace." So whenever we greet someone

or we leave them, we're automatically

wishing them good things.

Shalom, then.

Shalom. All right. You have a good day, okay?

Okay.

Hi, Mia. Come on in.

- Morning. - Morning.

Am I getting your intern evaluations later today?

I think probably EOD tomorrow.

Oh, because Sonya emailed hers this morning.

Yeah. We divided them up and we are staggering them.

- Anything I need to know? - What do you mean?

Well, I'm sure some are standing out, maybe others not.

It's still early days.

But if you could give us some space to do our work,

that would be great.

No way, you're such a liar.

Swear to God, they were talking to us from the dugout.

We were practically in the dugout.

Dr. Barker.

Good night at the ballpark?

Yeah, yeah. It was amazing.

Glad you enjoyed yourself. Let's you and me talk over here.

Nikki, Caleb, you two, IMO.

Dr. Maitra will be there in a minute

to give you your rounding assignments.

Yeah. Somebody's not happy.

You're off regular rotation today.

- What? - Have a look

at your assignments, let me know if you have any questions.

You're putting me on scutwork?

Why do you think that's an appropriate

consequence for your behavior yesterday?

I'm guessing because you think I was insubordinate.

Yes, you were, but no, that's not it.

It...

Ow.

I understand you lost a son.

- You all right? - Yeah. I'm fine.

Um...

You had everyone else do your work yesterday,

so you are gonna return the favor today.

That's the answer. Hop to it.

You're having memory seizures again?

Intense memories.

And yeah. Sharp, shooting pain in my forehead.

And how long has this been going on?

I had a few yesterday, and then again this morning.

Okay. What did you remember?

Danny.

And some woman talking to me about losing a son.

Has he been on your mind more than usual?

My brain just does what it wants.

And I am hostage to it.

So can you talk to Dr. Scherl about me taking these?

Cenobomate? That's for focal seizures.

Yeah, but my activity's in the temporal lobe,

and these have minimal side effects.

So why not give it a shot?

You know she'll never put me on phenobarb

and let me work again.

12.5 milligrams is fine.

And I suppose she'll be encouraged

you're not sweeping this under the rug.

Exactly. And I want a DTI scan.

They do those at Roosevelt, right?

I need to figure out what is going on.

I'll arrange it, but someone'll need

to tell Michael.

I really don't need the third degree from him today.

I'll handle it.

And you go ahead and start on these.

Thank you, Mama Bear.

Yeah, yeah. Camilla said she could stay

as late as we need her to.

Hey... Hey, listen to me,

your mother, she's strong, okay?

She's gonna get through this, all right?

Yeah, I love you too. Bye.

I'm sorry, Rachel's mom, she took a turn.

She's in Baltimore, so I've got Mia on my own for a bit.

No need to apologize. If you need to deal with that--

No, no, no. It's all settled.

Uh, Dr. Maitra said I'm with you today.

Yes, you are. Let's go.

Hi, Sofia, I'm Dr. Larsen, this is Dr. Ferguson

and Dr. Heller of Cardiology.

Look, I'm feeling better already.

Honestly, I think I was just dehydrated.

Okay, well, let's hope that's all it is.

Dr. Ferguson?

EKG looks normal.

ER ordered CBC, electrolytes, and tox-screen.

And no family listed here. Parents? Siblings?

Anyone we can contact?

I live with my boyfriend,

but I don't want to bother him right now.

I see.

We would like to start with an abdominal examination.

Sure.

Sorry, what's

the pain level there? One to ten?

Maybe... a four?

Okay.

Seems more like a six or a seven.

Yeah. Maybe.

Where did you get that scar?

- Oh, I had appendicitis. - How long ago?

I was nine.

That must be quite a story.

Actually, it wasn't too bad.

They caught it early, and I got to eat ice cream

for like a week.

- Sofia. - Uncle Carlos.

Thank God you're okay. Hi, Carlos Garcia.

Dr. Heller.

How long until Sofia can be moved?

Moved where?

You didn't tell them we want to see

- Dr. Irving at St. Mary's? - I-I didn't have a chance yet.

Okay, well, we're gonna need to run a few more tests

- before you can be moved. - How long?

A few hours at least.

Can I have a word alone with my niece?

- It can't wait? - If you wouldn't mind.

Just five minutes. Thank you.

Now, what you see here

is only a taste of what's to come

for Westside's 10-year plan.

- Max. - Dr. Larsen.

A dedicated cosmetic surgery wing.

Did someone forget to tell me that it's April Fool's Day?

If you have any thoughts on the allocation

- of donated funds-- - Oh, I have thoughts.

Nina Barker's welcome to throw her money around,

but it is your job to tell her where it's needed.

And it is not for double Ds and tummy tucks.

That's an interesting point of view.

Perhaps you'd like to discuss it with Mrs. Barker?

I stand by what I said.

So you don't think that was an appendectomy scar?

Did you see the location?

Too high on the abdomen

and the scar was too wide and long, right?

And if she'd really been nine years old

and there were no complications,

- it would've healed better. - Why would she be lying to us?

Patients lie all the time.

For a variety of reasons.

Usually, it's shame over what they think

they've done to put themselves here.

Or denial that they're really sick.

It's our job to figure out which,

and to get them to trust us.

In this case, I don't think Sofia

is gonna say anything in front of Uncle Carlos.

She seemed kind of nervous when he walked into the room.

And when I asked her about family,

- she didn't mention him. - And she didn't want us to call

her boyfriend, which was strange.

I'm not even sure there is a boyfriend.

So what do you think this is?

Sex trafficking or something like that?

It's possible.

That episode at the train tracks.

That could be drug-induced,

or it could have been a suicide attempt.

Amy!

I'm sorry... Uh, you are?

Oh, Nina Barker.

Yes. I've heard a lot about you.

Um, thank you so much for letting Graham

attend my benefit yesterday.

I'm sorry he got back so much later than anticipated.

I told him it would be better

if we had more warning next time--

I know, I know.

It's... wow.

It's just so strange, you and I used to know each other.

Quite well before your accident.

Graham said something about that,

and I looked back in my emails

and saw that we did something together around women's health.

Well, we tried.

Unfortunately, it didn't work out.

We're done talking,

if you wanna finish your examination.

I'll let you go,

I'm just here for that donor lunch.

Thought I'd pop down and see Graham.

Well, he should be in the Internal Medicine Office.

Great. Thanks.

We'll get her alone in Radiology

when we do the CT scan.

Hey, there.

You're here for the donor thing?

Oh, I thought I'd say a quick hello.

See how you're doing.

Larsen's drowning me in paperwork.

Clearly the best use of my time.

Is this punishment for yesterday?

- You got it. - I thought she'd changed

- since her accident. - Well, she's Mary Poppins

with everyone else,

she just has a sweet spot for me.

Did you antagonize her?

Not even a little bit.

I heard she's getting some of her memories back.

Don't tell me there was something between

you two that I need to worry about.

No, I'm just curious.

But I did run into her in the hallway.

She couldn't have picked me out of a lineup.

Well, don't reach out to the Board, okay?

Don't-don't do anything, all right?

I'm already the Nepo Boy here,

so just leave it alone.

I only meddle when your father asks me to.

If you wanna be your own man, try talking to him.

So, it sounds like your trip to New York was quite fruitful.

It was. It was.

And I'll be bringing in some of my New York people,

- including Sasha. - Oh, well, she's excellent.

And what do you need from us in terms of resources?

Uh, let's see. A couple hands on deck

from Cardiology, likely one or two people

from Internal Medicine to help with pre-and post-op.

Didn't Dr. Larsen consult with you on this

a few years ago?

She did.

But obviously, she wouldn't remember that.

And I'd be concerned

she has her hands full managing the interns--

Oh.

This is one of my donors

He's flying in for the luncheon today.

Of course. Go ahead.

Uh, Holly, would you let Max's office know

that Nina Barker is here and that we should grab some--

Tom! How was your flight?

- I'm sorry to be the one to break this to you.

Wait, don't-don't...

Don't tell me you're pulling the funding.

You know the group.

They like to be connected to the work.

Well, we discussed this, and you said that

moving the trial would not affect anyone's enthusiasm.

And that's what I thought,

but Kirkpatrick heard another pitch Tuesday

and decided to divert the funds.

Um, okay, so I'm sorry about that,

and we'll talk tomorrow.

All okay?

Yeah. Tom Wilton's having some family issues,

- so he can't make it today. - Oh, that's a shame.

Yeah.

Hey, the surgery I was prepping this morning

fell off the board?

I've been reshuffling the whole day.

One of my donors just dropped out.

Oh, man. Anything I can do?

Yes. You got three million bucks?

Isn't there some big donor lunch coming up this week?

Today, actually.

I'm supposed to be making an appearance,

but now I'll be walking in with my hand out.

- Nina Barker gonna be there? - Of course.

Come in.

How do you know her?

Same family as one of the new interns.

She's his stepmom.

From what I hear, the guy's a piece of work,

and Amy put him in the doghouse this morning.

She put the Nepo Boy in the doghouse?

I thought she was going with kinder

and gentler this time around.

I guess she's making an exception for this guy.

Maybe you can trade favors there?

Nah, I don't Amy'd appreciate us mucking around

in her sandbox. Besides, Nina already pledged two mil.

Kinda tough to double dip there.

What about this Harsha Maitra?

- As in Sonya Maitra? - Her father.

This hospital only hire royalty?

Sonya never took any help from her family.

Actually, her dad tried to give a big gift

to Westside last year and she squashed it.

Then what's he doing here today?

It's complicated between them,

but they've mended some of the fence posts.

She's the doctor you're seeing?

I can talk to her.

See if we can get the inside track on her dad.

- Good relationship with him? - To be honest, I never met him.

Ah, well, I'm not going to put you in that position.

So, why don't you go on and scrub in with Dr. Ford?

Sure.

What do you see, Kyle?

He small bowel's almost completely obstructed.

Could those be adhesions?

Darrin, can you zoom in, please?

Focus on the small bowel.

There's a capsule in there.

Tissue doesn't look fibrotic.

Not encapsulated tissue. A plastic capsule.

- What does that mean? - Body packer syndrome.

- What is that? - It means she's a drug mule.

The capsules carry the drugs,

and there's one stuck inside her.

But we'd need to know what drugs were in there, right?

And when it happened.

It could've been in there for years.

It's gotta be you. Alone.

Let's make sure Uncle Carlos doesn't leave the hospital.

And get police standing by in the lobby.

- Hundred percent. - Call Surgery.

Tell them to prep for an emergency ex-lap.

Darrin, can you give us a moment?

Yeah.

There you go.

You found something?

Well, your intestines have gotten so blocked up

that when you eat something or just even drink water,

your body rejects it.

So that's what caused the dehydration,

which led to the delirium

that you had on the train tracks.

Oh, okay. Well, how-how do we fix that?

Well, you have a plastic capsule stuck in your abdomen.

That's what's causing the blockage?

Plus internal damage from a botched surgery.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Sofia, I think you do.

Someone who wasn't a professional operated on you

and they left that capsule in there.

No.

Maybe I swallowed a pill

or something never got digested.

Can't you just get it out?

It's not a pill,

that capsule's half the size of my fist.

- And if it had drugs in it-- - It didn't. I swear.

That scar is not from an appendectomy.

That man out there is not your uncle.

Is he hurting you?

Or making you do things against your will--

No; it's nothing like that.

I know how scared you must be to tell us.

But if that capsule has drugs in it and it bursts,

it could kill you.

You are a ticking time bomb.

Now, if he's hurting you or threatening you,

- we have programs, we can help-- - No, it's not that.

Then what is it?

Anything you tell me is confidential.

I haven't talked about this with anyone in so long.

I have worked with many women

who have been through terrible things.

You can trust me.

It was filled with cocaine.

From how long ago?

- Twelve years. - So, you were just 19?

It started when I was 16.

- Gangs? - My boyfriend.

He was in the soldados fronterizos.

The Border Soldiers.

He said that capsules were safer

than the baggies or the condoms.

So, me and one of the other girls,

we went to the border like usual,

and when I got back, I started getting really sick.

One of the capsules burst.

Yeah.

So, my boyfriend takes me to some garage,

to this guy he says was a doctor.

They gave me a shot, and I woke up

a few hours later with stitches.

And that's what caused the scar.

After that, I told them I was done with all of it,

and he said, "Sure, you can get out.

As long as you're willing to eat a bullet."

So I kept doing it.

The DEA caught me and some of the other girls

in a bus stop in El Paso.

They said they needed someone to talk.

That they could protect me, so I flipped.

Got myself a new life.

My real name is Monika Fuentes.

I know. The views are going

through the roof, but while I'm...

I'm gonna call you back.

She told us everything, okay?

Her past, her real name, but I wanna see your badge

so I can confirm.

U.S. Marshals working in witness protection

don't show their badges in public, Dr. Heller.

I'm sure you can understand that.

And I'm sure you can understand

that we feel like we should've been told.

I wasn't authorized to reveal her identity.

And I was hoping to get her moved

- before that was necessary-- - Okay, well, listen.

The cat's out of the bag, can we all just

get on the same page here?

That's a video of her on the train tracks.

It's gone viral, and everyone can see her face.

Her cover is blown.

So she's not safe here?

If they find her, they'll kill her.

I won't take up too much of your time,

I just wanna clear the air.

Sure.

You know, I was married once before.

My husband and I...

We had a daughter.

And then there was a boating accident.

I lost them both.

I'm... I'm so sorry to hear that.

I didn't know.

I couldn't bear to have another child after that.

But Drew has a son.

He's in med school, actually.

It's a noble profession.

I understand you lost a son.

- Did you wanna trauma bond? - Is it the loss...

that's made you so cynical?

I wouldn't say cynical.

- Wary, maybe. - Sure.

Here I am with my husband's millions,

virtue-signaling my way into

seeming like a person of value

while you're rolling up your sleeves every day

- doing the hard work. - Look, I admit

that I was a bit heated the other day.

But I still think that a cosmetic surgery wing

is a colossal waste of money.

We've run the numbers.

In five years, the revenue generated from that wing

will trickle down exponentially to every department at Westside.

I'm sure that's what Max told you.

But you won't be able to control how he spends it.

I can stipulate I need oversight

- of the profit distributions. - Well, you can try.

I've never seen it work.

So, what would you do with my money?

I'd focus on a group that no one pays attention to.

Under-privileged women.

I need IV fluids, antibiotics, painkillers, and an NG tube kit.

And when you get to the elevator,

you call Dr. Heller, and he will get

security to unlock the fourth floor.

Got it, give me five minutes.

It's the second to last room,

it's the only one that's finished.

Okay, and the IVs and the NG tube?

Working on it.

I've got surveillance outside the hospital.

I've got four Marshals up here with me,

two on either end of the hallway.

Are you sure you have what you need to treat her?

We're bringing in the equipment now.

Renovations won't be done for another month,

and we sent the contractors home

so there won't be any foot traffic.

All right. Thank you.

Are you going to need a nurse?

No. We can manage for now.

The Marshals say the fewer people who know, the better,

so not even Sonya.

Yeah, they told me, too.

She thinks I'm in a bronchoscopy.

I spoke to Dr. Scherl and Gina.

The medication's working.

No memories. And no side effects.

Okay, I need full transparency.

Today of all days, I can't have you distracted.

I am laser focused.

I have been completely transparent,

and the lack of trust is getting boring.

It wasn't long ago you almost killed yourself

because you were hiding symptoms

and OD'd on meds no one knew you were taking.

So, you'll have to suffer the tedium of this for a while.

Getting in the northwest elevator on six now.

Where are you off to, Ferguson?

Oh, uh, it's just a supply run.

Supply run? What are you, Door Dash?

Ha-ha. Yeah...

Yeah, they're a little light up on seven.

Hm.

The damage from your surgery

makes it very difficult to dig around in there.

And if we do, we could accidentally burst the capsule.

So, we've been giving you heavy doses of antibiotics

to calm the risk of infection,

and we're gonna put this tube into your stomach

to try to relieve the pressure.

But it needs to go through your nose

and down your throat, so it will be uncomfortable.

I've dealt with a lot worse.

I'm just gonna put my hand right here.

Okay, here we go.

Okay, now, Sofia, if you can just touch your chin

to your chest, please.

- Okay. Got it? - Yeah.

Chopper can be here in 90 minutes.

How soon can she be ready?

Uh, depends how fast this works.

She's too unstable to travel right now, okay?

We'll know more in an hour. Syringe.

Here.

Okay.

Oh God. It's yellow.

Yellow's good, Sofia. That means it's bile.

If this works, we're gonna get you out of here safely,

and the hospital that the Marshals want you at,

they can deal with the capsule later.

There's someone downstairs in the Visitors Center

who wants to see you.

He says his name's Sean.

That's the man she lives with. Did you call him?

No, I was too afraid to bring him here.

- Did anyone? - No, not us.

So he saw the video.

He must've called before we told

our switchboard not to divulge that she's here.

- Carlos, tell him to go away. - No, Sofia, it's too late.

Now you have to talk to him.

I don't want to put him in danger.

What about Annie?

I have Marshals

staking out her school right now.

She's safe and being monitored.

I did this to them.

We can sneak him up by the stairwell.

I can send someone to help with that.

Do you love him?

Of course.

Then you need to face him.

This clinic offers

low-cost breast exams to underserved women.

And unlike insurance companies,

they don't have arbitrary rules about what they will cover.

I thought mammograms were covered by insurance now.

Only if they count as a screening.

So, if you're under 40 or have no risk factors,

- you're out of luck. - That's ridiculous.

Particularly when women who miss their first

breast cancer screening

have a 36% higher rate of dying from it.

- So, how does this place work? - Grants.

But right now, they've only got about six months

of operating costs left because patients keep coming,

and they don't turn anyone away.

So you're telling me my money will travel

farther here than at Westside?

By miles.

Well, it really couldn't

have been much of a decision at all,

given my track record and innate charm.

- And humility. - Right? I did forget that.

Well, he can brag about whatever he wants,

now that his trial is fully funded.

Exactly. But, of course,

I have Max and Lisa to thank for connecting me to Nina.

Oh, now he's just setting me up

to see if I can be humble.

You do know that Nina's stepson

is one of our most promising new interns?

And my daughter is chief resident,

which means she'll be overseeing him.

Oh, you must be incredibly proud.

She's finally allowing me to find a way to contribute.

Provided I do it anonymously.

Well, you're a week too late to get into Dr. Grant's trial,

but I'm sure Max could sell you on any number of other projects.

That's too bad.

Your project sounds intriguing, Dr. Grant.

Dr. Coleman!

Yes, sir.

I think we need to revisit

your offer from this morning.

Yeah.

How could you do this?

All this time, there's been a target on your back?

Which means there was a target on Annie and me.

I know, Sean. If I would have known

that this would've happened, I would--

Six years we've been together! You're like a mother to my kid.

And now I don't even know who you are.

I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.

These are the rules that they gave me, Sean.

New name, new identity. Tell no one.

After we met, I told Carlos,

and he said that we could be together

as long as I didn't tell you who I really was.

Well, I guess if Carlos said so.

'Cause he knows you a lot better than I do.

- That's not fair. - This isn't fair!

What are we supposed to do now? Do we just pick up?

We disappear with you?

Lose all my friends and my family.

Or do you and I, we just never see each other again?

I don't know.

Carlos said that there was some other girl.

Marisol?

She went into the program at the same time as you.

Yeah?

Apparently, they got to her of couple years ago.

What?

No! How?

He said that she broke protocol

and she visited her folks.

Then you have to go, Sean.

Go take care of Annie.

I can't ask anything of you.

Please. Just go.

Yo, G-Money!

Hey, you know Dr. Douglas

is about to run an arterial line down on five?

- It's gonna be sweet. - Oh.

Though it seems like you're kind of busy doing... nothing.

Oh, uh, gonna be busy doing your mom pretty soon, actually.

Oh yeah, yeah, that's original.

Especially from the dude with the Fairy Stepmother.

Oh!

Is this a hospital or a locker room?

Dr. Maitra. I'm Sorry, I was just about to...

Call a renal consult for Mr. Chung?

Right.

Hey. I haven't seen you in a few hours.

- Where are you? - Well, I texted you.

- I had a bronchoscopy on five. - So, it's finished?

'Cause I think you need to check on Brad Fuller.

I need a bit more time here, but Dr. Park's covering for me.

- Amy. - Yeah?

Michael said you might be having seizures again?

And that you started new medication?

- And? - We're partners, right?

And I confided in you about some pretty big stuff.

I'd be happy to talk about it at the end of the shift.

Frankly, I'm surprised that Michael

didn't think it could wait.

Okay.

I'll see you when I see you, I guess.

Okay.

- Hey. Can I grab you for a sec? - Yeah, sure.

Okay, so keep this between us,

but Ben lost a bunch of funding today.

- Oh, no. - Yeah, and uh,

he was gonna try to hit up people at the luncheon,

but he realized it'd be a bad look.

Anyway, the point is, we need funding,

or the whole trial is gonna fall apart.

So you want me to put in a good word with my father?

- 'Cause I don't know-- - No, no, no,

I wouldn't ask you to do that.

I was thinking maybe I could get a crack at him.

- You? - It's an amazing cause.

And I think it'd be an interesting way

for me to meet him.

Like, he just sees me as a young surgeon

who's really passionate about what we're doing here.

So, I introduce you...

You introduce me to him as a doctor you work with.

I impress him, maybe get him to help Ben.

Then later, when you're ready, we do the whole,

"Guess who's coming to dinner" thing.

I mean, you know what I mean.

- Yeah... - If it's too weird for you,

we don't do it. Case closed.

So, let's say I go ahead

and give five million to this clinic.

You're not worried about the political implications?

The Chief of Medicine

diverting funds away from her own hospital?

The Board already thinks I'm a loose cannon,

but they know they need me.

You know, my stepson is graduating

from medical school this year.

His father wants to keep him close.

He would be so lucky to learn from someone like you.

- I'm flattered. - I'll make sure his application

crosses your desk, then.

Nina, you can't possibly imagine

that I would be comfortable with that.

Oh, I'm sure you misunderstand.

Graham is eminently qualified.

He may be, but unfortunately,

now that the well is poisoned,

there's no probably no point in him applying to Westside.

You'll be more motivated

when you understand the leverage I have over you.

Excuse me?

Dr. Benjamin Grant?

And the trial you consulted on?

Did you honestly think I wouldn't thoroughly vet you?

When the time comes, you know where to find me.

She has to start her life over again for the second time.

Is he gonna go with her?

She told him to leave.

But he seems pretty conflicted.

His whole world's turned upside down.

I don't even know what's right.

I just, I don't want to see them separate in anger.

You're great with Kyle.

Kind of destabilizing

seeing you so different in that role.

Well, we'll see how long I can keep it up.

Help! We need help here!

Okay.

Dr. Larsen on line three for you.

You missed me.

I can't explain everything right now,

but you're needed on the fourth floor

for emergency surgery.

I'm about to scrub in for another patient.

- Isn't there someone who can step in?

No one else can pull this off.

- Now I'm intrigued. - Just you.

Tell no one.

Pressure's holding strong.

Prep another bag of saline. On it.

Thirty years, I've never seen adhesions this bad.

Hold on, I think I see the obstruction.

Give me more exposure.

Retracting.

Shift to the left.

Yeah, this bowel's necrotic.

Dividing the mesentery.

Bowel clamp.

Marking mesenteric artery.

Vessel loop on a right angle.

- I see the capsule. - That's impossible.

It's attached to the small bowel.

A piece must've broken off during the original surgery.

There's a second obstruction?

Yeah, and it might be eroding the wall.

We have to take out that entire section of bowel

without rupturing the capsule

and releasing the cocain into her system.

Ah, it's stuck.

Another adhesion?

Yeah, but we got bigger problems.

It's wrapping around the liver.

- Is it over? It's been hours. - Uh, not yet, not yet.

We're just gonna take five minutes

so we can rest our hands.

- And? - So, we were able

to fix the first bowel obstruction.

We found the second one and the capsule.

We're just figuring out the best way to remove it now.

Oh, my God.

If she doesn't survive this, the last thing I said to her

was that she was a stranger to me.

Listen, I think you gotta try to put yourself in her position.

Okay? She was a teenager. She was coerced,

- she felt threatened-- - But how could she keep

all this from me? All this time?

You heard what the Marshal said.

What was she supposed to do,

put all of you in danger?

We were in danger the moment she started

flirting with me at the Denny's.

Listen, she wasn't trying to fall for you, okay?

These things just happen.

Even when they're not supposed to.

And when they do,

there's nothing we can do to resist 'em.

It's just part of being human.

You're right. You're absolutely right.

- And I love her. - So you tell her that,

when she gets out of this.

I will.

I mean, she's the best thing that's ever happened to me.

- And to my daughter. - Right. Right, so--

I'm going with her.

Wherever she goes, I'm going too.

Thank you. Thank you, man.

Currently, the best artificial hearts

last an average of 100 days.

Our model is going to blow that out of the water.

The ultimate goal, and we believe

this is imminently attainable,

is for a permanent artificial heart solution.

It sounds very promising,

but may I ask

why you're giving this presentation

and not Dr. Grant?

To be honest, sir,

we lost a bit of funding this morning.

Nothing earth shattering, but in that context,

at the lunch, in front of the other donors...

It would've been difficult for him, I understand.

I appreciate that, sir.

Well, he must really trust you then.

Leaving you to this pitching business?

Uh...

Sonya? What's wrong, why are you crying?

Kichu na.Sorry, Baba.

Shona, whatever it is, you can tell me.

No, no, please TJ, continue.

Hey. Just tell me.

Uh, Baba...

TJ and I...

We're seeing each other.

Oh.

Ah, I can understand why perhaps

you wouldn't want to say something about that right now--

And I'm pregnant.

I see. Um, how far along?

Eight weeks.

And how long have you been seeing each other?

Four months.

Mr. Maitra.

I love your daughter.

And I'm going to be here with her the whole way through.

So you're getting married, then?

Oh, uh...

Uh, we haven't discussed that yet.

The operation was a success.

You're ready to be moved. And...

Sean has decided that he and Annie are coming with you.

- What? - Is that not what you want?

Oh, of course it's what I want,

but I can't do that to them.

He's a grown man. He's making his own decision.

No, he's doing something stupid. And rushed.

When he doesn't even understand what he's signing up for.

But I do. Because I lived it.

You can always tell him you don't want him to come.

Then he's gonna think I don't love him.

No, love doesn't always mean hanging on.

Sometimes it means letting go.

Then I start over again.

From scratch.

It's a long life.

We love different people, we change.

And we grieve, and we move forward.

It doesn't have to erase what you had.

All of that will stay a part of you.

You will stay a part of them.

Always.

Are you a shrink, too?

Oh, not even close.

But I have had experience with second chances.

You'll be okay.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, uh, long day

but thank you for including me, it was... educational.

Yeah, some things we don't want to have to learn about.

My parents warned me about stuff like this, but...

- Still, it's... - You did well today.

Very well.

Sofia's awake, and she'd like to talk to you.

- Thank you. - Yeah.

So the Marshals said there's no indication

that the gangs tied Sean to her,

but they're gonna keep protection on him

for a couple of months.

So, he's staying?

Well, it's not up to him.

She's leaving without them.

Do you have anything to do with that?

No, that's what she wants.

I just helped her through her fears.

Well... I gotta thank you for that.

The thought of Sean looking over his shoulder

the rest of his life, worrying about his daughter,

that was...

I was about to lose a lot of sleep over that.

I'm sorry how we ended, Jake.

We should've talked things through

instead of me coming to you so impulsively,

thinking I had all the answers, and then running away.

But I am glad that you went home to Mia and Rachel.

That must be good for you.

Yeah. It is.

And I appreciate you saying that.

You talk to your mom yet?

She's gonna throw a fit.

You don't know that.

Yeah, I do. 'Cause I told my father

and didn't even bother to include her.

Okay, so it didn't go exactly how we planned.

I don't know how I thought

any of that would be a good idea.

I'm sorry. I asked you if it was all right and--

And I should've just told you no.

- Why didn't you? - Because you said

how important this was to you. To your career!

- It's not about my career! - Come on, TJ!

Ben used you. Used us. And we just let it happen.

He's scrambling to save--

Hey. Heard you were in here.

How'd it go?

Yeah, good. He's all in.

You'll have what you need.

Oh.

Did that get messy?

It's fine. We'll work through it.

Yeah, well, thank you.

And I'm sorry if I put you in a tricky spot,

but we are gonna make history.

How's it going there, Dr. Barker?

Just about done.

Assuming tomorrow they'll put me in the dungeon.

Well, it can't all be pride and glory.

Maybe you ought to consider the kind of privilege you have

and remember not to rely on it.

Right.

Of course, I heard your father was at the same donor luncheon,

so maybe best to keep some of that perspective yourself.

- Excuse me? - Never mind.

But just so you know, Dr. Larsen was not doing a bronchoscopy.

She was down on the fourth floor.

All day.

But I get the feeling they didn't clue you in.

I mean...

Feel free to ask Kyle about it. If you can find him.

Guess he was in on it, too.

Well, I think that's a pretty stupid piece of gossip, Graham,

since they're renovating that floor,

and nobody's even allowed down there.

If you say so.

Just checking in. Any more seizures?

- Nope. - Memories?

The medication's working. I told you.

And I'm fine, thanks.

- Anything else? - Uh, matter of fact, there is.

I got a call from Max. He said that Nina Barker

would really like you to take an extra interest in Graham.

Any idea what that's about?

Just a big donor trying to get her money's worth.

But yeah, I will make sure

he gets all the attention he needs.

Okay. Uh, we'll regroup after your DTI scan tomorrow.

What the hell is going on down here?

We were trying to protect you.
