Previously,
on "New Amsterdam"...

You have cancer.
Squamous cell carcinoma.

I want to try
precision targeted therapy.

Chemo's gonna take the life
out of me and I-I want

to keep running this hospital.
- It's too big a risk.

Doctor Bloom asked me
to consult

on the hematology patient.

Her file says that
she received her heart

from a Luna Goodwin.

Your sister-she gave me
a beautiful life.

She had me arrange this.

Max?

Baby!

My-help!

Help!

We've got Marina Latimer,
mid 60s.

Been down for three minutes.

It's her third time here
this week.

She went back into V-fib
right after I shocked her.

Charge to 200.

Clear.

Okay, I've got a pulse.

Her heart's
a ticking time bomb.

Let's put V-fib pads on her
and find Reynolds.

He needs to put in
an ICD, today.

Yo, Dora.
Where's Max?

Out of pocket
for a few hours.

Okay.
Well, I have a patient

who needs an ICD surgery.

Her insurance won't cover it
so I'm just gonna charge it

to the Community Care Fund.

Max is the only one
who can approve surgeries

from the Community Care Fund.

He's out of pocket
for a few hours.

Can this wait until
it doesn't get me fired?

Um, look, whenever there's
a surgery that needs to be done

I just give Max a heads-up
and I do it, all right?

He dots the "I's"
and crosses the "T's" later.

We-we got a whole system.

He's been here
for like three weeks.

Yeah, that's how efficient
we are.

Dora, hi.

Just on my way
to Max's office right now.

Yeah, he was out of pocket
for a few hours.

He's what?
Shoot.

No, really?

As the
nurses' union liaison,

I need to tell him that
the hospital-wide walkout

was authorized just now
for today.

"Walkout"?

No, no, no.
It's a good-it's a good thing.

Max gave them the idea.

Of course he did.
- Yeah, I probably should have

led with that.

Did you know that insurance
has covered over-the-counter

emergency contraception
since 1996,

and now all of a sudden,
out of the blue, they're like,

"No.
Not without a prescription"?

That's not fair, right?

There's-there's no way
we're gonna let that slide.

And yes, for the record,
"Norma Rae"

is my favorite movie.

Go, girl.

Dora, I've been
texting Max,

but he's not responding.

He's out of pocket
for a few hours.

But I need to talk to him.

I've basically authorized

a surgery that's not covered
by insurance, and I'm about

to endure a walkout
from the nurses,

so whatever you need right now,
I'm sure I can handle.

It's private.
- Dora.

Dora, I've been looking
for Max.

Okay, I'm only gonna
say this once more:

Max is out of pocket
for a few hours.

Please, save your news,
questions,

mysterious personal requests,
or whatever it is

that you need, for his return.

Thank you.

Dr. Panthaki.
Thank you

for picking up Max's samples
in person.

But to be clear, this cooler
is full of Miller Lites, right?

Yes.

Yes, because I'm the type
who drinks domestic.

So tell me, will this be
your first time

seeing Lauryn Hill in concert?

Actually, no.
I've seen her several times.

But never on a date.

So in your head,
this is a date?

That's interesting.

Just-just give me my ticket.

Actually,
let's do this properly.

Get dressed up.

Dinner.

Okay.

Great.

Well, I-I should go now.

Me, too.

And we're going Dutch
on dinner, so make sure

you bring some cash.

Max, are you on
your way back?

Helen!

Helen, can you hear me?

Georgia?
What's wrong?

It's Max.
He-he collapsed.

He's not moving.

Does he have a pulse?

Okay.

Yes.
- Did you call 911?

They're coming but, um,
the call dropped

and I just didn't know
what to do.

Put your cheek
over his mouth.

Do you feel air moving?

There is,

like, a whistling-
a raspy sound.

Put the phone next
to his throat.

Georgia?
- Yes?

Georgia, Max's throat
is blocked.

What?
- You need to make

a new path
so that he can breathe.

Okay.
- You're gonna cut a small hole

in his throat...
- What?

No.
No, I can't.

Yes, yes.
Yes, you can.

You can, because I'm gonna
help you.

Find something that can cut
a hole in his throat

and a tube
to slide through it.

Find something.

Okay.

I have a-

I have a pocket knife.

God.

And a-and a plastic straw.

Use the knife to cut, um,
three inches.

It doesn't have to be exact.

Here we go, Georgia.
- Okay.

Use your index finger.

Find Max's Adam's apple.

Okay, I found it.

Feel down from there
until you come

to a little indentation.

Make a half-inch,
horizontal cut

through that indentation.

What if it's-
what if it's not clean?

What if I give him
an infection?

Georgia-Georgia,
Max can't breathe.

You need to help him breathe.

You can do this.

Okay.

God.

I did it.
I did it.

Good job.

Now, pinch the far edges
together.

Use your finger to keep
the hole open

and slide the tube halfway in.

God.
Okay.

Air should be coming out

of that tube.

It's-it's not-

it's not working.

God, it's not working!

It didn't work!
It didn't work!

You-you might just need
to help his lungs expand.

Blow into the tube.

Come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

Come on.
Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

He...

He's breathing.
He's breathing.

My God.

Good.

Good.

How long
was his airway obstructed?

How long was he not breathing,
ma'am?

Six or seven minutes,
maybe.

We got a possible
cerebral hypoxia!

Let's pick up speed!

What does that mean?

Means there's
a big difference

between six and seven minutes.

Mr. Mokrani?
- Yes.

How are you?
- Not great.

Yeah, let's have a look.

Does that hurt, right there?
- Yes.

Yeah.
Fell during a show?

No.

At the after-party.

I challenged another dancer
to a fouetté competition.

I can fouetté in my sleep,

but in my sleep,
I'm neither wasted

nor on a pool table.
- Please.

I was just as drunk and
on-a-pool-table as you were.

Know that you did not
out-dance me.

Basem, I out-danced you
so bad,

you're in a hospital.
- Yeah, well, I don't know

if it counts as out-dancing

if he fell off a pool table.

Yeah, but I didn't.

So, I out-danced him.

Dancing is the art
of not falling?

I'm sorry, who are you?

Yeah, I'm...

Just a guy challenging you
to a...

fouetté rematch.

Don't worry, I took dance
all through...

never.

Hello?
- Yeah.

Don't you have
some medicine to practice?

So,

you have a dislocated elbow.
Go ahead

and take this pen
with your left hand.

Now, grab it tight.
Hang on.

Okay?

Oof.
- Better?

Yeah.

Yeah, good.
Okay, he's okay.

I was thinking
loser buys dinner.

Really?

I mean, yeah.
I'm not scared

if you're not scared.

Looks good.

Looks pretty-pretty good.
- Okay, you go.

My turn?
- Yep.

This is embarrassing,
'cause I actually thought

"fouetté" was a French dessert,

so I didn't know that it was
that spin-y thing.

That was way better
than what I thought it was.

But...

excuse me.

You're gonna go ahead
and ice that elbow

and you're gonna be fine.

Are you coming?

Um...

it's 2:00 in the morning.

Yeah, but I gotta be
back here

in three hours anyway-
and full disclosure,

I can't afford
a real restaurant,

so we were just headed
to the cafeteria regardless,

but the Jell-O is phenomenal.

You in?

What's with the T-shirts?

You said you were gonna
take time off

to take care of yourself.

I am, and I will.

I tried to talk to Max
this morning,

but he's not here.

He's always here.

Well, right now he's not,
and I can't just

stop running the ED, can I?

I feel so bad, all the work
you do on me.

I've become this burden
to everyone.

No, no, you're not a burden.

It's just that you have
mediocre insurance,

and I think you should be
treated like you have

Cadillac insurance,
so we're gonna cover you

for an ICD implant.

Today.
- For the whole surgery?

What about
the anesthesiologist?

Sometimes they get you
with the anesthesiologist.

For the whole surgery.

So glad Gertie
is doing better.

Bye.

both: Hello.
- Nice T-shirt.

Thank you.
Power to the people, Vijay.

Ella was telling me
that I helped her save

her crazy Chihuahua.

All right, Ka-pooch.

I didn't know you did work
on canines.

That's cool.
- I don't.

I gave her a little money
for the vet.

How much?
- $2,000.

American?

I gotta go,
but I'll see you in prep.

Sharpe!
What's the code?

It's Max.
- I'm sorry, what?

What happened?

I don't have all the details,
but he's collapsed.

He's in a medevac
on his way here now.

Is it serious?
- I should get the trauma team.

They'll be here
in two minutes.

There's something else,

something that you all need
to know in order

to treat him properly
when he arrives.

All right, Sharpe, what's-
what's going on?

Max has
squamous cell carcinoma.

Advanced stages.

The trauma team's
gonna meet us here.

No-whoa, hold on a second.

How long have you known
about this?

Since his first day.

Since his first day?
- Look, I-I know

that this is shocking,
but whatever we're feeling,

we're gonna have
to put it aside

because we need to focus.

Clear a path!

O2 stat's dropping.
- Okay, let's up oxygen

to 100%.
- Push more fluid.

Does anybody know how long
he was out for?

Okay, everybody out
of my ED, now!

Should I page Dr. Candelario?
- No.

Yes, yeah.
Page her, please.

On three.
One, two, three.

Monitor
for ischemic cascade.

Why hasn't he started chemo?

In two weeks he starts,

an immunotherapy trial.
- What?

Well, that's-

that's what he wanted.

That's what he wanted?
- Yes, Floyd.

He's the patient.
- Yeah, but he's also

the medical director
of this entire hospital.

Am I the only one who's
wondering what happens next?

What-what are you doing
out here?

Candelario is working on him.

Why?

Because I just got off
of back-to-back doubles,

and Candelario
is an excellent doctor.

You pull doubles
all the time.

Max deserves to have a doctor
with fresh eyes.

Do you disagree?

How is he?

We don't know yet.

Might be hypoxia.

So, like most of you,
Doctor Sharpe told me

about Max's condition,
and needless to say,

I was a bit shocked,

but we don't have time
to be shocked,

or angry, or upset.

We all have a hospital to run,

and while Max is in there,
we need a leader out here,

and that's gonna be me.

Until further notice, I am
the new Medical Director

of New Amsterdam.

I need surgery schedules,
staff rotation.

I need the minutes
from the last

department chair meeting.

That-that's gonna take
a little while

to put together.
- Okay, then let's start

with what Max
was overseeing today.

His hot list.
- Yeah.

What's the hot list?
- It's his to-do list,

but with a cooler name.

I'll call it something else.
- Thank you.

Don't worry,
I'm only temporary.

I have several calls out for
more permanent replacements.

Dean Fulton, all this
is incredibly premature.

When Max wakes up-
- If Max wakes up,

he will still have cancer.

He certainly didn't expect
to continue this job

while undergoing chemo.

Hah.

Of course he did.

So all you care about
is business.

Let me tell you something...

every single day,
10,000 patients walk

into this hospital
and its clinics.

Our annual budget
is $1.5 billion,

and the governor is demanding
that we cut it by 10%,

which is really tough,
because our expenses come in

well over $1.8 billion.

Our infrastructure report
after Hurricane Sandy

told us that we were sinking
into the East River,

and will need $100 million

infused within the next
two years so we don't end up

like Bangladesh
after a monsoon!

And the one guy who's in charge
of this whole show

is lying in Trauma One
with a tube down his throat.

And what about
a succession plan?

He knew he was sick.

You knew he was sick.

Someone should have had
a plan in place.

Right?

What?

I just made us the greatest-

Max has had a set-back.

His throat closed up.

Where is he?

In the trauma unit.

Well, is he responsive?
- Still unconscious,

but at least
he's breathing again.

How long was he down?

Six or seven minutes.

I need to ask a favor.

Anything.
- I need you to move up

Max's start date.

To when?

To tomorrow.

Helen, I just got the cells.

I know, I know I'm asking
a lot, but if Max is gonna

keep running this hospital,
then he needs to be

in your trial.

Let me see what I can do.

Monitoring.

Decompression.

Dr. Candelario is suctioning
Max's lungs.

He's really lucky
you were there.

Stand by.

You want
to step outside?

Get some fresh air?

What's the difference
between six and seven minutes?

"Six and seven minutes"?

EMT said he might
have hypoxia.

I don't know how to pray.

I'm not religious, but I wish

I knew how to pray.

We've got blood.

What's happening?
What's happening?

Could be ARDS.

God!

Ooh, you're seriously
taking me to the theater

in your scrubs.
- I'm on call,

but when I put
this jacket on, like so...

You're looking at me like
you can't quite believe

you're dating somebody
so stylish.

Just like looking at you.

So, are you excited to see
Pina Bausch's company?

My God, I can't stop
saying it.

Pina Bausch.
Pina Bausch.

Pina Bausch.

You wanna know
an interesting thing

about Pina Bausch?
- Pina Bausch.

It's super rare
for her company to be

performing on a Monday.
- Is it?

Weir-sch.

Theaters are dark on Monday.
- Did not know that.

You wanna know another thing?
- I sure do.

Her company performed
just last night

at the Kansallisooppera.

And that's even more fun
to say.

It's also in Finland.
- Really?

Now, it sounds like
you don't think we're going

to see Pina Bausch.

What is this?

What's that-what?

Yeah, you got me.
There's no show.

Just a guy who can't quite
believe his luck.

Really?

Really.

Will you marry me?

Not even gonna check that.

I'm not even gonna look
until you say something.

No rush.

Someone could be dying...

Right now.

Yes, I'll marry you.

Yes?
- Yes.

My God,
it's beautiful.

So beautiful.

I gotta go.
I gotta go.

Go, go, go. Jacket.
- Yeah, but I-yeah.

I'll make it quick, I promise.

She said yes!

You know-
I've been thinking about this.

This kind of explains a lot,
don't you think?

What?
- The-all the crazy changes

he made around here.
That explains a lot of it.

Yeah, I mean, like, who-
who forms a cardio unit

that doesn't care about money,

or who-who puts fruits
and vegetables

in vending machines?

Who encourages their own staff
to stage a walkout?

Do you know what I mean?
It's a-it's a dying man

saying "screw you"
to the system, that's who.

What do you want me to say?

I don't-anything.

Just join
the conversation, man.

Or are you just gonna
stand there staring at me

like the old Kapoor?

I was not aware
there was a new Kapoor.

Yes.
No, there are two

very distinct Kapoors.
The old Kapoor was this

solemn fellow
who rarely spoke to people,

and then Max comes
on the scene and bam,

all of a sudden
you're smiley-face guy

who randomly lends $2,000
to the coffee girl

for her quote-unquote "dog."

You have no right
to talk about Ella's character.

Except I do, because she took
$2,000 from you.

I gave it to her,

and for the records,
there is no old or new Kapoor.

There is only Kapoor.

Doctor...

So I see that your patient,
Marina Latimer,

is scheduled for an ICD.

Yes.

Why is it being charged
to the Community Care Fund?

Because her insurance
is garbage.

I don't see Max's signature
anywhere on the document.

Right, yeah, he would have
approved that

had he not collapsed.
- Right.

Is she stable?

Yes.

This is not
a necessary surgery.

Okay, Mrs. Latimer
has been in and out

of this hospital
more than her own home.

This ICD will completely
change her life.

Doctor,
a public hospital's job

is not to change
people's lives.

It's to save people's lives.

We will not be paying
for this surgery.

Dean.
Dean, hi.

You wanted to see me?
- Yeah.

Hi.
What's up?

How you holding up, kiddo?

you know.

Terribly.

We go way back, don't we?

Am I fired?

Ignatius, come on.

Well, usually when people say
"we go way back,"

it's because you're not going
way forward.

This is about the nurses
and the walkout.

Good, right.
Yes.

Um, HCC needs to come back
to the table

so we can make some progress.

They're not coming back
to the table.

Well, if the nurses
stand together, we have a shot.

They're not coming back
to the table.

HCC wouldn't tell Max,
but they told me.

If the nurses walk,
then I have no choice.

I just have to replace them.
- You can't.

You can't replace 1,600 nurses.

So I'll have to close
the wards that we can't staff.

I'm gonna have to send
the doctors home,

send custodial home.

People are gonna lose
their jobs, and for what?

We work in healthcare,
and we can't provide

our own people
with comprehensive healthcare.

I want you to listen
to me now.

With Max down,
this is not the right time.

Convince the nurses
to stand down,

or else everyone-
patients included-

everyone is gonna
pay the price.

Fine.

All right, fine.

Can I get an update?

For, Georgia?

He's still unresponsive.

We're having a hard time
getting his heart rate up.

Well, maybe I can help.

He's not your patient.

He's my friend.

Can I talk to you, please?

Then why did you pass him off?

Max...

Max needed fresh eyes.

I've known you six years

and I have never once heard you
refer to your eyes

as not fresh.

My shift was over.

Lauren.

Why did you pass Max off?

I- I've been working
at Bronx General a lot...

and working here a lot.

I don't know, the last-

last few weeks it was...

it was too much.

I hit a wall.

Okay.

And, um...

I've been taking
a little bit more...

Adderall than prescribed.

How much more?
- I don't know.

Just more.

But I'm handling it, okay?

I'm gonna-I'm gonna take
some time off,

I'm gonna figure it out.

I was gonna talk to Max
this morning, but...

Anyway...

that's why I passed him off.

So, do you really think

Ella doesn't have a dog?

Are you serious right now?

Is that-
is that a serious question?

New Amsterdam
is upside-down right now.

Max is in the ICU,
the dean wants me to tank

the walkout, and you're focused
on some woman's Chihuahua?

Come on, man.
- So you do think

she has a dog.
- I don't care.

Dog, no dog, it doesn't matter.

It matters to me.

Why?

Why does it matter?

Because...

there is a new Kapoor.

I think there's
a new Iggy, too.

So what do you think this...

new Iggy and new Kapoor
should do?

Are you Dr. Goodwin's wife?

Yes.

I-I just want to say
that your husband

is the first man
in his position...

To care about the janitors.

We wait for good news.

I come bearing

the sweetest cantaloupe
you have ever had.

I know your, cravings
haven't started yet,

but when they do,
I feel like they're gonna be

really melon-heavy.

I don't know why,
I just get that vibe.

You okay?

What's wrong?
Is it the baby?

When I came home
there was a FedEx waiting...

with contracts from
New Amsterdam Medical Center.

Good news.

You got the job...

that I didn't know
you'd even applied for.

I didn't-I didn't apply,
it just happened.

When was the interview?

A week ago...
- A week ago.

But, look,
the dean of medicine called me

out of nowhere and he said,
"I need an answer right away."

And I figure why tell you...
- "Why tell me"?

If I don't know-
- We made a promise, Max.

Remember?

We were going to raise
this child together.

We were going to put
our careers second.

I gave up everything.

This job is the opposite
of that.

I'm gonna make it work.

Really?

It is the largest
public hospital in the country.

And I'm gonna figure out
how to squeeze everything in.

Great.
Will you, Max?

Will you figure out how
you can squeeze me in and-

and your child?

That's not what I meant.

Well, that's what's
gonna happen.

By the time this baby
gets here, I'm gonna have

this place running smoothly.

I can come home early.

I can take weekends.

You won't.

Not unless I'm sick,
not unless the baby's sick.

That is the only way
you will stop,

and just...

be.

And just be what, Georgia?

This is-this is the life
of a doctor.

This is my life.

No, it's not.

It's not.

We know doctors-we know
dozens of doctors-

and this is not their life.

You're obsessed, Max.
You are.

It's not healthy.

It's like an addiction.

I know you love me.

But when the hospital calls...

it always wins.

I can't let my daughter
grow up

feeling like she's not
the most important thing

in her father's life.

I can't do this anymore, Max.

Georgia...

with your permission,
I would like to provide Max

with a small prayer.

What is that?

Did I hurt him?

No.

I think you might have
just saved his life.

It's called
a paraneoplastic syndrome.

The way his skin got red
and swollen

where you kissed him?

That's happening everywhere
in his body.

Everything's becoming red
and swollen,

and shutting down.

From the cancer?

Yes.

But now that we know
what it is, we can treat it.

And he'll be okay, right?

We'll have
to wait and see.

Let's let the HCC
know what we want!

all: We'll march all day!

We'll march all night!

'Cause birth control
is our right!

We'll march all day!

We'll march all night!

Louder!

All right, come on!
This one's for the one and only

true Medical Director
of New Amsterdam:

Max Goodwin!
Let's make it bigger!

all: March all day!
March all night!

You know, I just-
I think Max would have hated

to see a bunch of clever
homemade protest signs

go to waste, you know?

You look like you're a small.
Right, sir?

There.
For you.

all: March all night!
'Cause birth control...

Forceps.

Suture.

Reynolds?

Is that Marina Latimer?

It is.

So you're willing
to risk your job

for one surgery.

I'm willing to risk my job
for one patient.

Now, the ICD is implanted,
and I'm using

a 4-0 nylon suture for closure.

When I am done she'll spend
24 hours in recovery.

Then I am sending her home
without a bill.

If the hospital won't pay,

bill me.

I'll give you a moment.

So that's my wife.

What do you think?

Not bad, right?
I did okay.

She would have loved you.

Thing is, I...

I almost blew it with Georgia
a few months ago.

She, saw right through me.

She figured out
that everything I do

is because of you.

I just keep trying
to save you.

Over and over,
that's all I do.

And I never...

never will.

So now I got a wife...

and a daughter
on the way, and...

I'm always gonna love you.

Always...

Always...

But I need to start living
for them, too.

Georgia.

My God...

It's okay.

Dr. Reynolds.

Is the dean looking for me?

I'm sorry, I can't seem
to stop.

Max is awake.

I should have told...

everybody from the beginning.

Um...

but I've been wrong before.

Sharpe.

I want to start chemo.

No clinical trials, no risk.

I don't want to risk...

losing you again.

That's my priority.

Which means-
- No.

No, you're not resigning.

I have no choice.

You will if we help you.

I mean, if you're willing
to delegate,

we'll all have your back.

Like you had ours.

Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, count me in.

Me, too.

I don't mind putting in
the extra time

if it means keeping you around.

Guys...

you're not hearing me.

I think they're hearing you
just fine, Max.

These are your people.

This is your hospital.

For better or worse,
there's no going back, Max.

Georgia, help me out.

Max is about to start
the most intense fight

of his life.

And above everything...

He has to take care
of himself.

Which is why
he's not quitting.

This job-

this job is who you are.

In some ways...

it's who you've always been.

I honestly believe...

that by staying here...

working, helping...

Will keep you alive.
