Previously on "New Amsterdam"...

- King of casino.
- Isn't that why I'm here?

Because you feel guilty
for ignoring your brother

for all those years.

You're here because you're my family.

That you ignored for your whole life!

I was the one who was ignored first!

My mother's raised three kids,

owns her own home,

prays harder than anyone I know
for everyone else,

and now she needs full-time care.

- What are you doing?
- I'm leaving.

No, come on. Don't do this.

Why not?

I'm transferring you
to another therapist.

I'm sorry.

I had a tremendous breakthrough

with the new patient.

Is that his hat?

103 degree heat,
suffocating exhaust fumes,

the sun reflecting
off every glass tower.

As you can see, she took it
with great dignity.

Oh, were you burning up out there?

Come here. I gotcha.

- Goodness gracious.
- Oh, I gotcha.

I think somebody needs
a little turbine cooldown.

- Max!
- No, she's fine.

She likes it.
God, it gets hotter every year.

I can't believe it's not even June.

What is the world gonna be like
when you're a grown-up?

Because it is a slow moving
train wreck right now,

and nobody is doing anything...

Could you speak up?

I can't hear you over the turbines

belching freon into the air.

Well, I make up for it, all right?

I turn on the low flow nozzle
in the shower.

I compost.

I turn off the faucet
whenever I'm brushing my teeth.

Okay? Every time.

I have like 60 of those
reusable cloth shopping bags.

Yeah, so you won't mind
if I turn this off?

No, no, no, just a second longer

'cause it's, you know,
making her comfortable.

Yeah, which makes you comfortable.

Everyone talks a good game
about sacrifice

right up until the second
it threatens their comfort,

including you, Max.

That's how much we throw out

Hey, Jer, you dropped one.

- Toss it?

- It's unopened.
- Don't worry about it.

We got thousands of these things.

Most of the patients throw 'em
in the garbage anyway.

You're cutting out the middle man.

I can't believe you took
a whole week off to be with me.

Well, I haven't taken
a vacation day since 2009.

So was it worth it?

I'm pretty sure I answered
that question several times.

- [PHONE CHIRPS]
- Mm.

You're gonna be late.

[SIGHS] I'm the boss.
Bosses can be late.

Well, in that case...

Not that late,

but we can pick up right here

[GROANS]

Mina!

Mina, the hospital is the other way.

Look, I know you're not thrilled

about the prospect of therapy,
but it helps to have someone

to talk to who can see things
that you might be missing.

- I'm not going to therapy.
- Mina, will you listen to me?

I mean, one of those American therapists

with those questions:

How do you feel about this?
How does this make you feel?

I'm not going back to that hospital.

- You need someone to talk to.
- [SIGHS]

I agree.

Islamic Center?

Don't look so surprised.

I grew up going to places like this.

Yeah, no, of course.

Mina, I'm not against you coming here.

It's just that I booked you
an appointment.

Hey, Dr. Frome!

You need to take this.

Was that why you wanted to see me?

Man, I'm sorry.
I could have just come by.

Yeah, I know.

I should have told you about Martin.

This needs to stop right now.

It was stupid.

I... I didn't mean
to freak anybody out, I swear.

It's only 'cause you wouldn't see me.

You're not my patient anymore.

You're not my husband's patient.

Chance, you lied your way into my home.

But you could help me

when no one else could.

I was getting better.

You know it's true.

I need you.

Just take the hat, please.

Don't do this to me.

I'm not doing anything to you, Chance.

These are the consequences
for your actions,

your choices.

And if you continue down this path,

I will get the police involved.

What?

For your safety and for mine,

you can no longer see me or my husband.

Is that clear?

This behavior is dangerous.
It is obsessive.

And I don't want to do this,
but if you don't stop,

I will be forced to file a
restraining order against you.

complete train wreck right now.

Come on, we're always
in shambles during a heat wave.

I'm sure it's nothing we can't handle.

[CHUCKLES] You say that now.

Before you let it rip,
I'm aware that we're not

Okay, where's Turan?

I know we're backed up.
I'm working as fast as I can.

It's fine. You're fine.

It is? I am?

Yeah, whatcha got?

Got a patient brought in
by a concerned family member

complaining of mild dehydration.

[PERCUSSIVE MUSIC]

He doesn't look dehydrated.

That's because he's not the patient.

Hey, Javier.

Why don't you tell the doctor
what you can do?

I can control the weather with my mind.

Okey dokey. I am gonna be right back.

Let's ask him to make it cooler,

and then get Iggy down here.

Dr. Bloom, I know you said
only bother you

- when absolutely necessary...
- [SIGHS]

Especially on a day like today, but I...

- Hit me, my friend.
- Oh, okay.

We got an interesting case.

Sister Edith Pursey, a cloistered nun

from the Monastery
of the Precious Blood.

Let me guess, she's hot.

No, she's cold... freezing, actually.

We just can't seem to get her warm.

Could be anemia.
She has a low hematocrit.

Okay, let's double up
the warming blankets,

page Sharpe, and Dr. Walsh...

- And here it comes.
- What?

No, no, I was just gonna
suggest that you move her

from the nurse's station
to a procedure room.

Geez, why does everyone think
I'm gonna bite their head off?

Who says you can't run an ED
and be nice to people?

You did. You said that last week.

Dr. Bloom, we are officially
out of space,

at capacity, and it's not even lunch.

No problem, okay? I am gonna fix it.

It's easy-peasy, okay?

Great work, everybody! Great work.

Maybe I need a vacation.

The man knows Mama has

Every time I turn around,

Look, no one is taking this seriously.

I'm up three times a night
every week checking her levels

'cause this guy's got
her blood sugar all jacked up.

- I'm telling you...
- Help, somebody help!

- I gotta go.

- Must be boiling in there.

He's got a core temp of 107.

[SIGHS]

Oh, Max!

- About this heat wave...
- Yeah, tell me about it.

Did you know that sea level
rise will nearly triple deaths

from contaminated drinking water

by the end of the century?

Oh, and my ED is already at capacity.

This is not sustainable.

Couldn't agree more,
and we are part of the problem.

Don't get me started

on New Amsterdam's carbon footprint.

I wasn't planning on it.

So to my point, I need
more staff, overflow beds,

and a second ambulance triage unit.

- I will do you one better.
- Overtime pay?

I'm gonna fix global warming...

at New Amsterdam.

[SIGHS]

Melting polar ice caps, deforestation,

temperatures are expected
to rise at least ten degrees

in the next century,

and the people in charge of solving this

can't even agree that it's real.

So now it's up to us.

The radiology department?

Because global warming
is a healthcare emergency.

[ALL OHH-ING]

Who do you think's gonna bear the brunt

of unchecked wildfires, mass migration,

toxic algae blooms?

- The radiology department?
- Hospitals.

So here, today, together,
the people in this room

are gonna take up the fight
against global warming.

Now, I would like to debut
my new flagship program...

"The Gloves Are Off."

- Wait, literally?
- Yeah, literally.

Single-use latex gloves account
for 20% of our medical waste.

Do you know where that waste
ends up, Mike?

We need to wear gloves, Dr. Goodwin.

Wrong answer. On a barge, Mike.

It ends up on a barge.

I also would have accepted
"in our oceans."

So we are all gonna try something new.

We are only gonna get one box
of gloves per day.

- Per person?
- Wrong again.

For the entire department.

What about infectious patients?

Well, that's why I chose radiology.

Your patients are already diagnosed.

Nobody needs gloves to simply
walk a patient into an MRI.

But gloves are how we protect ourselves

- from, you know, germs.
- Uh-huh.

But handwashing is undeniably
more effective,

which is why every
scrubs station and bathroom

on this floor has been stocked
with extra biodegradable soap.

Now, who's ready to save this planet?

Say it with me, guys. The gloves are...

The gloves are...

Off.

Thank you, Jerry.

I'm not crazy.

No one said you were.

I didn't say you were crazy.

I just... you know,
it's rare to see someone

who can control the weather
with their mind.

I knew it. You don't believe me.

No, wait, wait. No, no, no, no.

You know, it's my brother who is sick.

I just agreed to take him
to the emergency room.

- I don't need any of this.
- That's cool.

We're just...
We're just talking here, okay?

Just me and you.
Your brother, he's downstairs.

He's getting his fluids
replenished, and...

Can I come clean with you?

Can we sit?

Confession time here.

The only reason I brought you up here

is because I'm kind of
a weather nerd myself.

- You are?
- Just a touch.

I named my first pet El Niño.

- [CHUCKLES]
- So yeah, you be the judge.

I just... I have to ask you
a couple questions

about your, you know, your powers.

This brutal heat wave outside,
is that...

is that you?

Yeah.

Whoa. [LAUGHS]

How do you... how do you do it?

I get this throbbing feeling.

Starts in my head.

Then it moves down
through my whole body.

Then everything goes black,

and that's when it got hot.

That's it?

Are we done here?

Wait, um, look.

This is really exciting for me,
like, beyond,

and I know it's a big ask, but, um,

Javier, can I get a scan
of that brain of yours?

- A scan?
- Yeah, I just...

I need to see what makes you so special.

I know that's a big ask, like I said,

and if you wanna say no, I will
respect that and back away,

but I have to ask.

[CHUCKLES]

Sure.

- I guess.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.
- Awesome.

[LAUGHS] That's awesome.

I am so sorry

to cancel Mina's session
last minute, Serena.

No, no, everything's fine,

except for the fact
that she doesn't listen,

she's completely out of control,

and I don't know what more
I have to give her.

Sorry?

Me?

No, I don't need therapy.

I have to go, Serena.

[SIGHS]

Sister Pursey. Hi, I'm Dr. Sharpe.

I hear you're the only person
in the city

not melting from this heat wave.

It's not as promising as it sounds.

Don't tell me I got this virus.

- Oh, no, no, it's not COVID.
- Okay.

Although your temperature
is still only 94.5.

- Do you mind if I take a look?
- No, please.

A little different from your
usual day-to-day, I imagine.

It's my first day outside
the convent in almost...

Oh, goodness... almost 30 years.

- Gosh!
- Mm-hmm.

Well, I'm sorry this is where
you have to spend it.

[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Will you excuse me a moment, please?

- No, of course.
- Thank you.

Dr. Walsh.

I ordered four tests.
Why did I just see one?

Oh, I just ordered the thyroid test.

And why would you do that?

Well, the ED was so jammed,

and hypothyroidism seemed like
the obvious diagnosis.

So you thought that you'd just ignore me

and do whatever you wanted?

Sorry, what year
of your residency are you in?

And let's all just
lower the temperature.

A little heat joke
to diffuse the tension.

When I order four tests,
it's not a suggestion.

- It's an order.

Max Thunberg, what have you done?

You eliminated red meat
from all patient meals?

Every rib, patty, and sirloin.

But you can't do that.

I can, and I did

because New Amsterdam is getting ready

for "turning down the meat
on global warming."

I'm not sure if that's
a slogan or an HR violation,

but we are not complying.

- Do you hear me?
- [CLEARS THROAT]

New Amsterdam buys 7,384 pounds
of red meat per week.

That is 13,291,000 gallons of water,

and do you want to guess
how much methane

is produced by those cows?

No.

Good, 'cause that's the one
statistic I did not memorize,

but it is a lot.

Dr. Goodwin, I don't think
you quite understand

the effect this is going to have...

No red meat?

My patients are going to revolt.

- There will be violence.
- Over this?

Come on. It's healthier.

Studies show that cutting out
red meat reduces the risk

of heart disease as well
as most cancers,

and we've been doing it
in cardio for years.

Well, I don't work in cardio,
Dr. Goodwin, I work in OB,

and when a patient's been
sucking ice chips for two days,

squeezing a bowling ball
out of their vagina

during an 18-hour labor,
believe me, they want blood.

- They want steak.
- Right, okay.

Well, if new mothers are
craving iron post childbirth,

you can lovingly
and instructively point them

toward legumes.

- You're gonna get me killed.

Every single patient in post-op
is complaining about our food.

Yeah.

How exactly is that any
different from any other day?

and I would really like to know
what's actually happening here.

I'm fascinated.

♪

I knew it.

I'm not making this up.

- We're trying to help you.
- By tricking me?

Lying to me?

Trying to lock me away
in some psych ward?

Because you're acting crazy!

Hey, now, we don't use that term.

Javi, you're sick. You need help.

We're trying to help.

There's nothing wrong with me.

Your brother is just
concerned for you, okay?

He's worried.
We all just want what's best.

You want proof?

Here's proof.

Oh, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Grab him, grab him.

Gently, gently, gently.
Get him on his side.

- Javi, open your eyes.
- Gladys!

Javi.

Yeah?

I asked you for help this morning,

and you have done absolutely nothing.

I've been trying
to make changes all day.

- To combat climate change.
- Exactly.

I asked you for help in my ED, Max.

And my changes would
significantly reduce

your patient load.

Years from now, not today.

My ED is coding today.

Okay, so when do we make changes?

You tell me. We run 24/7.

There's never gonna be a good time

to change the lightbulbs,
or try a new policy,

or do anything of any consequence.

We all say that we wanna fight
climate change,

just not like this.

Do you know what "not like this" means?

It means never,

and never means a lot of patients.

It means human suffering on a scale

that we can't even imagine.

- Max.
- No, we can be a model

for other hospitals in New York,

for the country, the world

if we can cement one single change...

Enough!

I am running an emergency department,

not an environmental think tank.

I don't care about my carbon footprint,

or yours, or this hospital's.

I don't care how many gloves I use,

or how many syringes I toss,
or my emissions.

I care about the patients in this ED

lining these hallways
and waiting in ambulances

halfway around the damn block.

So stop making changes
that are gonna help people

a hundred years in the future,
and get me more staff,

more beds, and a second triage unit,

so we can start helping people
right now.

Javier, the surgery was a success.

How'd you know how to fix him?

Do you guys know
what barometric pressure is?

I heard of it,

but what's that got to do
with my brother's brain?

Excellent question.

So barometric pressure
is the weight of the atmosphere

all around us, and it can
affect the human body

in many, many ways.

Like, for example,
if the air pressure is lower,

it pushes against the body less,

allowing tissues to expand.

And when the storm started,

the drop in pressure opened
a fistula in Javier's brain.

And that fistula was hiding
a small benign tumor,

hiding it even from the MRI.

And that's what was causing
Javier's delusions.

I know. It's been that kind of day.

So I wasn't controlling the weather?

No, no, the weather was
controlling you, in fact,

which sadly is something
I think we're all gonna have

to get used to.

- How are you feeling, Sister?
- The same.

What's wrong with me?

We have run some more tests,

but at this stage, we just don't know.

I have faith.

I'm not gonna lie.

I could use some of that
right about now.

Are there any spare rooms going
at your convent?

I'm not sure that would be any help.

I found mine on a bender in Panama.

[CHUCKLES]

Oh, you're serious?

You found your faith
on a bender in Central America?

Oh, yes.

At your age, I was what you'd
call a raging alcoholic.

- Sister Edith.
- It's true.

That summer backpacking...
Partying, really.

I think it took about six weeks
until I lost everything,

my backpack, my passport, friends.

I managed to push everyone
and everything away.

I thought it would make me feel
more safe,

but I was never so alone.

And then suddenly, I wasn't.

I had faith.

It was all that was left,

and what I was missing,

and I never lost it again.

[SOFT MUSIC]

- In... in Panama.
- Yeah, that's right.

Will you excuse me a moment, please?

She has malaria.

What are you talking about?
She's a cloistered nun.

Yeah, now, but 30 years ago,
she was a party girl in Panama.

You can't be serious.

She had a whole life
before joining the convent.

So, what, it's been dormant
all this time?

And only now triggered
due to the heat wave.

Look, her body temp, her blood smear.

Cerebral malaria.

Get her on intravenous artesunate.

I just couldn't see it

because I only saw one part
of who she is.

Apology accepted.

[DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Dr. Reynolds.

What's gonna happen to him?

There's a lot to unpack there,

but leaving a child locked
in a car in New York City

can constitute endangerment.

He could go to jail, lose his son.

Is that...

is that too far?

The boy was five, Dr. Reynolds,

abandoned in a car.

You found him. You saw.

Right, right, right, right,
but you didn't...

you didn't see the look on his face

when he came into my OR, he had the...

His eyes.

I'm sure he felt awful,

but our concern must be
for the safety of the child.

Right, right,
that's why I called, but...

What's the smile for?

♪

I owe you an apology.

I came in here this morning thinking

that I could make changes

without disrupting your lives.

Clearly, I was wrong.

So I'm gonna try something else.

I'm gonna disrupt your lives on purpose.

We're all in favor of change

right up until the moment
it makes us uncomfortable.

So we're going King Solomon here.

Since I can't implement any changes

without upsetting someone,

I'm gonna implement
all of my changes at once

and upset everyone.

I didn't think it could get any worse.

That's what they said
about climate change.

I'm asking everyone to be annoyed,

inconvenienced, uncomfortable.

It will unquestionably suck,

but doing nothing is worse.

So we'll all put up with the lightbulbs

and the fewer gloves.

And the surgeons will say goodbye

to single-use scalpels,

and the anesthesiologists will account

for their greenhouse gasses.

We will all dig a little deeper,

and cope with a leafy salad

because if we want any chance

of a better future for our kids,

there is only one move left:

Suck it up and get it done.

The only thing I can promise

is that we'll all hate it together.

Annoying, but inspired.

You know, I get that a lot.

are we calling this program?
