Auggie has a brother
in California.

We can't tell you what this
means to Keshawn.

We can fly out
so the boys can meet.

A chemical pregnancy?

Does your mom know?

God no,
and please don't tell her.

He's had surgery.

I realize I shouldn't
have come back so soon.

Why do you think
you did that?

I'm the chief of the ED.

I have a greater
responsibility.

It's often the people
who are the very best

who feel the most inadequate.

Wouldn't do that
if I were you.

Dr. Choi.
- I'm sorry.

I just had to warn you.
You're leaving a rook exposed.

I know.

I'm attempting a gambit.

Once he takes my rook...
- Knight F6.

Then you've got mate in three.
Well done.

I promise I don't spend
all day playing games.

Hey, as far as vices go,
online chess isn't so bad.

Good morning, Dr. Virani.
- Hi.

Dr. Choi, a word?

Sure.
Excuse us.

You know,
you still haven't sent me

your top candidates
for the new ED position.

Right.

After your collapse
last week,

we both agreed you needed
to lighten your load.

And I'm gonna hire someone.

I just haven't found
the perfect fit yet.

Well, since
you're still searching,

a list of ED docs let go
through no fault of their own

from a nearby rural hospital.

Gaffney acquired
the institution

when they went bankrupt.

Whoa.
- Someone you know?

Dean Archer.

He was my senior medical
officer in the navy.

Outstanding physician.
Taught me most of what I know.

Well, see if you can schedule

an interview today.

And if not Dr. Archer,

I want that position filled
by the end of the week.

Yes, ma'am.

Dad?

Dad?

What are you doing here?

Aren't you gonna be late
for your pod?

I've got an Uber
waiting outside.

Can you just sign this
chemistry test for me please?

Just right there's fine.

Whoa.
A D?

Plus.

Why are you bringing this
to me anyway?

Isn't it your mom's week?
- Dad, you know how she is.

She would take my phone
or my iPad

and just anything
that I say to her,

she'd say it's an excuse.

Well, what do you
have to say for yourself?

We talked about this
a few weeks ago.

You really seemed like
you wanted to step it up.

I know.

It's just with the...

with the pregnancy scare
and the potential of moving.

I don't even know if we're
staying or going, so...

Listen.
I gotta go.

So can you just...

Um, I know this has been
a stressful time, okay?

But at least got the final
custody hearing today,

so one way or the other,
we are gonna have closure.

No more limbo.
- Yep.

♪

Owen?

One more video,
and then we're taking Nana

to the airport, okay?

Hello?
- Kay.

Hey, Mom?

If we don't leave in five,
we're gonna hit traffic.

Mom?

I want you to take two bites
before we leave, okay?

What is it with everyone
in this house today?

Mom?

Are you still in the shower?

Hello?

Mom?

Mom?

Mom, can you hear me?

Mom, I can't get
my video to play.

Owen, one second!

Mom, can you fix it?

Owen, do not come in here.
Stay in the living room.

Hi, yes.

I found my mom unresponsive
on the floor.

I need an ambulance now.

Mom?

Owen.

What's up?
- Coming through.

Oh.
Sounds like them.

There they are!
- Whoo!

Did you spend the whole $10
that I gave you?

At least they have
some healthy options.

That's true.
That's true.

Let's back this up.
- I'll help him.

Okay then.
He's got it.

It's been so great to spend
the week with y'all.

We really appreciate
you making the trip.

Oh, please.
It was our pleasure.

Keyshawn?

Why don't you give your brother
his goodbye present?

A present?
- Yeah.

"Swamp Tales"?
Nice!

Can we play right now?

Come on, fellas.
It's your last day together.

You really wanna spend it
playing video games?

both: Yeah!

Have fun, guys.

You like it?
- Yeah!

Thanks!

Dream come true for Keyshawn.

He's always wanted
to find his little brother.

Yeah, when we learned
that Auggie was sick,

we just prayed
that he would be okay.

You both have done
so much for him.

You saved his life.

We're just happy
he finally got a liver.

Yeah.

We love Auggie to pieces.

That's clear.

Probably why my heart is going
a mile a minute.

What?

Um, look--we don't know
how to put this.

Um...we understand

that your adoption
isn't finalized yet.

You want Auggie.

Well, we were thinking
wouldn't it be great

if the boys could
grow up together?

I know it's
an impossible thing to ask.

But if there's any way
that you could--

No.
- Maggie--

There isn't.
No.

We're adopting Auggie.

And I can't believe
that you would come here

and suggest this--
- No. You're right.

We're sorry.

We're grateful the boys
got a chance to meet.

Yeah.

Us too.

Natalie.

Will.

I heard your mom
was brought in.

Are you okay?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I'm okay.

They think she had
a heart attack.

Her troponin
were a bit elevated,

but they're not sure.

She's in the cath lab now.

Crockett will let me know
something soon.

And Owen, he's...

At the neighbor's house.
- Good.

When I found my mom,

I tried to keep him away,
but he saw her.

Come here.

It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.
- Crockett.

Hey.
- Hey.

Morning, Will.

Your mom's coronary arteries
are clear.

No evidence of infarction.

There you go, Nat.
That's great news.

But, um, there is
global dyskinesis

and a significantly depressed
ejection fraction.

Her heart's
not pumping properly.

I just don't--
I don't understand

what's causing this.

Myocarditis?
- That'd be my first guess.

Did you send cultures?

Bacterial and viral, yes.

Could also be
medication-induced.

I sent a tox too.

What about a thyroid panel
and cortisol?

Two steps ahead of you.

Look--I appreciate
the backup, Will--I do.

But I think I got this covered.

Thank you.
Have you had anything to eat?

I don't think I could eat
right now.

Still, I think we should
get you something.

You're gonna need your energy.
- Right. I know.

Thanks, Will.
- Of course.

Safe travels home tonight.

Thank you.

Can you believe the nerve
of those people?

Well, their hearts
were in the right place,

wanting their son to grow up
with his sibling.

So what are you saying?

You think we should just
let them take Auggie?

No.

I'm saying we should have
a conversation about it.

I get that we decided that

we weren't gonna have
any kids but this--

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

That has nothing to do
with what I'm saying.

No?

'Cause it feels like
you're looking for an out.

That's low, Maggie.

You know I couldn't
love Auggie more

if he was my own blood.

I'm not gonna do this
with you right now.

Thanks for coming in
on such short notice.

Sure.

You know, driving over here,

I was thinking about
the first time I saw you.

You were just a kid
and scrawny.

Well, not anymore.

Missed you the last couple
of reunions.

Sorry you weren't there.

I wanted to be
but, you know, work.

Well, your qualifications
are excellent obviously.

This was really just
a formality more than anything.

Job's yours if you want it.

I appreciate that
more than you know.

And, uh, I accept.

Matter of fact,
how about if I start today?

Today?

I figured since I'm already
credentialed in the system,

and I'm here.

Yeah.

Uh, why don't you shadow me
for today

just to get the lay
of the land?

It's an ED.
I think I know the lay.

Oh.

But, hey,

I welcome the opportunity
to watch you in action.

Happy to have you on board,
sir.

It's Dean.

Right.
Dean.

Gonna take me a minute
to get used to that.

Come on.

My baby needs help!

Someone, please.
- Okay, I got it.

Miss, tell me what happened.

I tripped going
down the stairs,

and I--I dropped her.
She's--

All right, we're gonna
help your baby, okay?

Just follow me right here.

Jim, meet me in two.

Why don't you put your baby
down right here, okay?

Okay.

What's your baby's name?
- Sarah.

Okay.
- She's only three months.

I need you to put Sarah down
right here, okay?

Maggie, what do we got?

Three-month-old fell
out of her mother's arms,

won't wake up.

There you go.
There you go.

I got her.
I got her.

Okay.
Okay.

Please tell me
she's gonna be okay.

This is a doll.
- What?

Is this some kind of joke?
- No!

My baby needs help.
You have to help her.

Please.

Yeah.

Hey.

We've got a situation
down in the ED.

The nurses tried to page you,
and you haven't responded.

Oh.
I'm sorry about that.

Um, I'll head down there now.

Daniel, what's wrong?

The judge has made
his ruling.

Susan will be taking
my daughter

out to Arizona.

Court decided it was in her--

her best interest.

What?

Why?

Well, I guess
with my work hours?

They said that Susan
technically would be home more.

They also noted that

she'd been
her primary caregiver

for the majority
of her childhood.

I'm so sorry, Daniel.

Look--I know it's nothing
like her being here.

But with Facetime and Zoom
and your visits,

you will be a part
of Anna's life.

Oh, yeah.

Definitely.
Yep.

Look.

Take some time.

I'll get someone else
to see the patient.

No, I gotta go to work.

Take my mind off this stuff.

So we have six treatment
rooms and two trauma bays.

And over there is our
state-of-the-art Hybrid OR.

Ah. I always dreamed of
putting an OR in my ED.

Never could raise
the funding though.

April, I wanna introduce you
to the newest member

of our team, Dr. Dean Archer.

This is April Sexton,
one of our star nurses.

Whoa.

The famous Captain Archer
in the flesh?

It's so nice to meet you.

My reputation precedes me,
huh?

Well, it is because of you

Ethan insists on making
the bed every morning.

Mm.
Why is he making your bed?

No, he's not.
- Uh, we--

It's--
- No, it's fine.

I got it.
I got it.

If you'll excuse me.
- Hold on.

April, when you get a chance,

can you set up
for an I&D in four?

Doris, I&D in four.

On it.
But we're 2 and 0 this month.

Next delousing is yours.

Okay.
I hate pus, she hates bugs,

so we switch.

Mm.
I see.

I remember when nurses
did both bugs and pus.

Nice of you to let 'em
pick and choose.

I don't want you to worry.

We're gonna take excellent care
of your baby, okay?

I'll be back shortly.

She's definitely
not pretending.

She's convinced
that that's her baby

and maintains that
they fell down the stairs

earlier today
while she was holding her.

But I didn't see any signs

of injury or bruising
on Ms. Sanders.

I'm not at all sure
that that actually happened.

What is this,
some kind of delusion then?

My first guess
is something called

Delusional Companion Syndrome.

The affected believe that

inanimate objects
possess consciousness.

The cause is usually medical.

Stroke, Alzheimer's--
in this case,

it'd have to be early onset.

Ideally, we get a CT

without tipping her off
to what we're looking for.

Well, we could tell her

that we're gonna check
for injuries

since she said she fell.

Good thinking.

Maggie, can you call the PICU

and tell them to prepare
a crib for Sarah?

Wait.
For the doll?

Ms. Sanders believes
that that's her baby,

and she's hurt.

We challenge her
with reality right now?

We risk shutting her down
completely.

Did she mention any family?

Her husband's a truck driver,

but he's on a cross-country
trip right now.

Okay. Maggie, why don't you
give him a call?

And then keep me updated.

All right.

Heart failure.

I don't understand.

I've never had
any heart issues.

Is this something
that could just pop up?

For some patients,
it's a slow build.

Usually due to high blood
pressure, faulty valves,

but in others,
it can be sudden.

So, um, then what?
I just take a bunch of pills?

Well, we're gonna start you

on an intravenous infusion
of medication

to try to get your heart
to pump more effectively.

But given your current stage
of heart failure,

the recommended course
of treatment

is a left ventricular
assist device--an LVAD.

LVAD.
- Mm-hmm.

That's what, like,
Uncle Joe had.

Yeah.

I remember him lugging
around that machine.

So if, um, I do this,

will it fix my heart?

Well, there's a small
percentage of patients

who fully recover but--

But it will improve
your quality of life, Mom.

So then it won't fix things.

Well.

Hey, Carol.

Sorry to interrupt.

I'm so glad to see you.

It's for you.

My favorite.
That is so sweet of you.

I have missed you so much.

Same.

How are you feeling?
- Not great.

These two--

they are telling me
that I need an LVAD.

Ah.

You know, Owen talks
about you all the time.

Hey, guys.

Why don't we give Mom
some time to rest.

Sure.
Carol.

Thank you, Doctor.
- Mm-hmm.

I'll stop by later.

Good.

Hey.
Sorry about that.

Kinda awkward.

I'm assuming Carol
doesn't know?

What's that?

About you and Natalie.

That you're seeing each other.

Yeah.
Guess not.

Well, I'm glad she has
the support right now.

I want Natalie to be happy.

Yeah, me too.

Ow!

When did the vomiting start?

Just after 1:00 a.m.

I had my head
in the toilet all--

Oh.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

April.

Okay.

All right.

Given that the abdominal pain
has been on and off

for over a month combined with
your alcohol consumption...

I swear I'm gonna
cut back, Doc.

I think we're looking
at pancreatitis.

Pancreatitis?

One of the main things
the pancreas does is

release digestive enzymes into
your small intestine, but--

But with pancreatitis,
the enzymes become activated

before leaving the pancreas,

causing inflammation
and belly pain.

Couldn't have said it
better myself.

Ms. Sanders's head
and c-spine CT read.

No evidence of stroke
or Alzheimer's.

Anything like--
oh, but look.

C-3.
Evidence of a fracture pattern?

It's really well-healed though.

So maybe she did fall.

Yeah.
But like a year ago.

Mom, hey.

Great news.

Dr. Marcel was able
to pull some strings

and schedule your LVAD surgery
for later today.

Will remembered
my favorite flower.

It was so nice of him
to come by, wasn't it?

It was.

Sometimes I think
about that week

we all rented the house
on the lake.

How crazy your dad was
trying to outdo Will.

Will won him over.

I know you two have
had your ups and downs.

Mom.

Will's a catch.

I know you love Will.
- Yeah.

I care about him too,
but we've both moved on.

Actually, um,
I started seeing someone new.

Yeah.
Dr. Marcel.

Oh, God.

I put my foot
in my mouth, didn't I?

It's okay.

I should've given you
a heads up.

It's just--it's super early,
so, you know.

Mm.

You haven't introduced him
to Owen yet, have you?

No.
No, not yet.

Good.

You don't want Owen
to get too attached, just--

Hey, I get it.
- Yeah.

All right?
And I--I agree.

Anyway, where is all this
coming from?

Well, I want what's best
for you, Natalie.

Now that I don't know
how much longer I've got...

Mom, stop it.
- I wanna see--

Don't talk like that.

I just love you so much.
I wanna see you happy.

And I will be, okay?

You're gonna be fine.

Mr. Becker's labs and scans.

Oh.
What's the damage?

Elevated lipase
and amylase.

Ah.

Take a look at his CT.

Big pancreatic abscess
over the body and tail.

Let's start him
on broad spectrum

antibiotics and fluids.

550 milligrams imipenem?

Now hold on.

Why not a percutaneous drain?

I prefer starting with the
least invasive intervention

and elevate care as necessary.
- Yeah, I understand,

but if it's SIRS
and not sepsis,

we're gonna be playing
catch up.

Fair point.

But still, given the chance
of perforation leak,

drain's high risk.

Not if I do it.

I'm credentialed
in hybrid procedures.

Yeah, okay.
Let's go with the drain.

April, Dr. Archer
will perform the procedure.

Show him up to CT.

Hey.
- Hey.

How are you holding up?

I don't know, Will.

I'm not, really.

I mean, you know
what an LVAD means

for someone my mom's age.

And the chances of her
getting a heart are so slim.

It's a bridge to nowhere.

She'll have two years...

Maybe.

I just--

I thought we had
all this time together.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't unload
on you again.

Don't apologize.

Listen--you might
have more time

with your mom than you think.

It's what I came
to talk to you about.

My clinical trial.

I reviewed Carol's charts.
She's an ideal candidate.

I mean, I know you've had
promising results,

but it's still experimental.

Oh, Nat, our results
are more than promising.

I mean, we're actually
seeing patients

reverse heart damage
without the risk of surgery.

But what if she
doesn't get the drug?

Well, after a few months,
everyone gets it.

It may be too late by then.

I mean, time will have passed.
She'll have gotten worse.

And then she may be too sick
to get an LVAD.

There's a risk
with any treatment.

But if it's time you want,
the trial's the best option.

I don't know.

I think...

I think maybe you should
present it to my mom.

Let's see what
she wants to do.

Dad, I can't leave Chicago.

I--I just can't.

I know how tough
this must be

leaving in the middle
of the school year,

leaving all your friends,
but you just gotta trust me.

Once you get out there...

Dad, I'm not worried
about losing my friends.

I'm worried about
leaving you.

Oh, honey.
I'm gonna miss you too.

And we are gonna talk
all the time.

Yeah, but it's not
gonna be the same.

And, like, yeah,
I have friends but...

you're the only one
who I know

isn't gonna judge me
for anything.

So--oh.

It's fine.
I know you have to work.

So I'm just--I'm gonna go.

Honey, can I call you back?
Okay.

I'm so sorry to interrupt.

But I tracked down
Tally's husband--

well, ex-husband.

Ex?
- Divorced.

It sounded recent.

He's on his way here now.

I knew the doll
was a bad idea.

When I first saw it,
I was shocked.

Oh, my God.
It looks just like her.

I guess people see 'em
as some kind of tribute?

When did you lose
your daughter

if you don't mind me asking?

About a year ago.

Tally tripped
coming down some stairs.

Sarah slipped out of her arms.

Doc said the fall
caused a mesenteric...

Ischemia?
- Yeah.

Said they could do some kind
of exploratory surgery,

but it probably wouldn't work.

Sarah was so tiny, I just--

I didn't wanna put her
through that.

Did Tally feel the same way?

She couldn't make the call.

She suffered a real bad
neck injury when she fell.

She was out of it for days.

When she came to,

I had to tell her
Sarah was gone.

She thought I made
the wrong decision,

gave up too soon.

It tore our marriage apart.

I'm so sorry.

You know what I'm thinking,
Mr. Sanders,

is that because Tally
couldn't participate

in any of Sarah's end-of-life
decision making--

she couldn't say goodbye--

she hasn't been able
to fully accept her loss.

And in her despair,

that the doll might have become

an opportunity for her
to rewrite the past.

That's why she's reenacting
what happened?

I think she's trying
to change the outcome.

And I have an idea
about how we might be able

to help her begin
to break this delusion,

but we're gonna need your help.

What happened?
- His pressure just plummeted.

Belly's distended.
Hard as a rock.

Maybe it's the drain.
- No.

I placed it perfectly.
That's not it.

Call general surgery.

Ethan, a word.
- Start him on Levophed

and titrate up
to a MAP of 70.

He goes into open surgery
right now, he's a dead man.

The mortality risk is high,
I agree,

but at this point,
we don't have a choice.

What if we did a VARD
right now, you and me?

It is minimally invasive,

but I'm not trained
on that procedure.

You still want me
to call surgery, right?

You remember on the Vinson

when we did that
emergency ex-lab

with just a laceration kit?

We got this.
I'll walk you through it.

April, open the Hybrid OR.

We'll need
a laparoscopic setup.

Are you sure about this?

I'm sure.

Hey, Halstead.

Yeah.

So I finish operating,

and I find out that you
cancelled Carol's LVAD surgery?

That's right.

She wants to be evaluated
for my clinical trial.

Your clinical trial.
Give me a break.

You're unbelievable, man.
- Excuse me?

Well, let's be real
with each other, Will.

What are you after?
- Hey.

You're way out of line.
- Am I?

Then why'd you present
the trial to Carol

without my input or approval?
- I went to Natalie

'cause hers is
the only approval I need.

Thought she'd keep you in
the loop, but apparently not.

Look, I have a lot
of history with Carol

and with Natalie.

And I understand that
makes you uncomfortable,

but I won't apologize
for it.

Wire and dilater in.

Okay.
Making an incision.

Thank you.

Go gently.

If he starts to bleed,
we won't be able to stop it.

Go, go, go.
All right.

There we go.
Ooh.

That enough pus for you?

Ring forceps.

Mike.

I'm here, Tally.

She slipped
through my arms.

I don't know what happened.
I just tripped.

Honey, it's okay.
It was an accident.

The doctor needs to talk
to us about Sarah.

Okay.

So Sarah's fall
caused an injury

known as mesenteric ischemia.

It is an interruption
of the blood supply

to the small intestine.
- Oh, my God.

Now I've spoken
to our surgical team,

and they can perform
exploratory surgery.

Whatever she needs, do it.

But it is
a very long operation.

I have to be honest with you.

It is very unlikely
that Sarah would survive it.

She'd be going
through the operation,

more suffering for nothing.

Mike, what do we do?

You're her mom.
You decide.

I mean, if they don't do
the operation,

how long before she--she...

I'm afraid it would be
a matter of hours.

No!

No.
- I'm so sorry.

I don't want her to suffer.

I know.

Don't do the surgery.

Can we be with her

when she...

Of course.
Of course you can.

Did you know Keshawn made it

all the way to level 100
in "Minecraft Dungeons"?

I didn't.

That's impressive.

Yeah.
And he's my brother.

Yes, he is.

Does he really have
to go back tonight?

I'm sorry, sweetie.

I'm sure he's gonna
miss you too.

Maybe someday soon you can go
visit him in California.

Yeah.

I'm sorry.
I should've updated you.

I've just been so overwhelmed.

Yeah, of course.

Look--I understand that.

Thank you.

I just--are you sure
that's the only reason?

I don't know,
it just seems like

Will, he's been your rock.
- Crockett.

I guess I just worry that
your mom's history with Will,

her affection for him,
it's clouding her judgement

and possibly yours too.

I mean, look--Will is someone

I shared a life with
for a very long time.

Yeah.
Of course.

But I would never
let that cloud my judgement.

Then why aren't you
objecting to this?

You know the risks
of an experimental drug.

LVAD is proven.

I mean, if this
were any other patient--

It's not any other patient.

It's my mom!

And if there's a chance
she could recover--

that things could go back
to the way they were...

I mean, I know
it's a longshot but...

As a daughter,
you wanna believe.

But as a doctor, you have
to see this for what it is--

a gamble.

This could buy you more time
with your mom.

Or less.

Look...

I just want you to be prepared
for all the outcomes.

Not just the one
you're betting on.

That was pretty incredible,
huh?

That's one way to put it.

If Archer hadn't have
suggested going in with VARDs,

Becker would've died
in the OR.

Saved the man's life.

If Dr. Archer hadn't insisted
on placing a drain,

Mr. Becker never would've gone
downhill in the first place.

We don't know that, April.

Look, I get that
he was your mentor.

Maybe that's why you
trusted his instincts

over your own today.

But Ethan, he's not
your superior anymore.

I know that.
- Does he?

What's going on?

She's, um...

She's finally saying goodbye
to her baby.

Hey.

Hey.

The Carters...

they wanna adopt Auggie.

I can't...

I can't lose another child.

Another?

I don't--
- I never told you.

Never told anyone really.

Only Ben.

When I was 16, I...

I got pregnant.

By the time I found out,
I was four months along.

I didn't know what to do.

I agreed to put the baby
up for adoption.

After she was born,

I held her.

Then a nurse came in and...

she took her
out of my arms and...

When my friends started
having kids,

they'd say, "Mags, you'd make
such a great mom.

When are you gonna
get pregnant?"

I couldn't tell them, but...

I didn't think I deserved
to be a mother.

Then Auggie came into my life.

It felt like a second chance.

But seeing how he was
with his brother today,

how happy he was,

what do I do, Sharon?

Maggie, you know
I can't answer that.

But what you did
for your baby,

allowing her to have a life
that you couldn't give her,

that was love.

So no matter
what decision you make,

it will come from that place.

And I'm sure of that.

Hey.
Listen.

If this is
about the judge's ruling...

It's not.
I just wanted to talk to you

because I'm--

I'm genuinely worried
about Anna.

Why?
What's going on?

Well, she came to my house
this morning

so that I could sign
her chemistry exam.

She got a D.
- Oh.

Yeah, of course she comes to
you 'cause you're the good cop,

and I get stuck
being the bad cop.

But I'm not sure
it's quite that simple.

No?
- No.

Look--how do I put this?

Anna really responds

when she feels like
she's being heard?

Oh, my God.
Here we go.

And I don't listen
to anything she says, right?

I mean, why else
am I a monster, Dan?

Tell me. Because I--
because I believe in

consequences,
a little discipline?

It's not what I'm saying.
- It is what you're saying.

Look--she's a teenage girl,
okay?

I mean, it's inevitable
at some point

there's gonna be a clash,
you know?

It's perfectly natural
for her to be pulling away.

She didn't tell me
about one bad grade.

You make it sound like we're
living on different planets.

It's not just
about the grade.

Well, what?
What else is there, Dan?

What don't I know about?
Her boyfriend? I know.

The specifics
aren't important.

Because
there are no specifics.

You just love to play
your little head games.

Sue.
- No, gotta get packing.

She got pregnant.

What?

It was a chemical pregnancy.

You thought she was pregnant,
and you didn't tell me?

No, I didn't 'cause she
begged me not to, all right?

And I'm only telling you now

'cause you don't wanna
seem to acknowledge

how disconnected you are
from your daughter.

You are a manipulative
son of a bitch.

You know, you wonder
why she doesn't talk to you?

It might have something
to do with you.

For instance, the way
you're behaving right now!

Doublechecking
my handiwork, huh?

Making sure I put the drain
in the right spot?

So how'd I do?
- Drain was placed perfectly.

Of course it was.

But there is one thing
I need to be clear about.

In this ED, I'm in charge.

Yeah, of course.
Uh...

To be honest, I--

I was just eager to make
a good impression.

That's all.
- Listen, this is gonna be

a big adjustment
for the both of us.

Yeah, hey. Lead, follow,
or get of the way.

And it's my turn to follow.

Thanks, Dean.
- All right.

You always have Auggie's
best interests at heart.

I know that.

That's what allowed you
to see what I couldn't.

Auggie should be
with his brother.

You really believe that.

Mm-hmm.

Growing up with a sibling
to lean on

was everything to me.

If Keyshawn is any indication,

Maxine and Antoine are...

They're pretty great parents.

I was just having...

Trouble getting past
my own stuff.

What happened
when I was a teenager.

Oh, honey.

I think about her
all the time.

Wonder where she is,
if she's okay, I...

It's okay, baby.

Let's go tell Auggie.

Her surgery went well.

She should be awake
in an hour, so...

Thank you.

Yeah.

I'm gonna stay here tonight.

Sitter's with Owen.

You want some company?

Yeah. I'd like that.

Okay.

What's going on?

Talk to Mom.

It's clear that
my way of parenting

isn't working anymore.

When Anna was a baby,
we were so close.

And somewhere along the way,
we drifted apart.

Yeah, but you know
that's not gonna last forever.

You know that, right?
- Maybe.

But I feel like
I don't know her anymore.

And I certainly don't know
how to connect to her.

I think that she should stay
in Chicago

with you.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Sue, are you sure?

Look, we can assess
at the end of the school year,

but for now...yes.

Sue, no, no, no.

Sue.
