- I can't marry you.
- Get out.

I never want to see you again.

What about an outpatient clinic

We will have to hire
a top primary care physician.

REPORTER: I'm outside
the Atlanta Detention Center

Hunter is charged with giving
hundreds of patients

unnecessary chemotherapy for profit.

With trial just weeks away,
her release comes as a shock.

BELL: During the resection,
all the planes of dissection

were obliterated and his bowel
was adhered to the IVC.

Eight hours, 20 units of blood
and blood products.

I did manage

to repair the injury
using a saphenous vein graft.

Well, what's his prognosis?

That's too soon to tell, but he's alive.

BOARD MEMBER:
Thank God you were on call.

I hate to think what might have
happened to Marshall Winthrop

in the hands of a less gifted surgeon.

CONRAD: I should've been there with him.

There's nothing more
you could have done.

They got him into surgery right away.

I left him all alone with Bell.

Mina was there to help, and according
to her, Bell did everything right.

We haven't had enough time
to sort out our issues.

And now, just when I was starting

to get to know my father,
I could lose him.

Hey. Don't go there.

I'm sure he'll wake up soon.

But in what condition?

He could have neuro deficits
from being under so long.

20 units of blood, FFP,
and platelets transfused?

That alone carries
a 25% chance of mortality.

If someone hadn't run
that surgical checklist

- and had blood on hand...
- They did.

And your father is strong.

All we can do now is wait.

It's gonna be okay.

WOMAN: They let her out?

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Hey, what's going on?

Lane Hunter. She's out on bail.

- What?
- CONRAD: That's impossible.

- Bail was five million.
- MINA: That's probably nothing to her.

I heard she billed Medicare
over $20 million a year

for unnecessary chemo.

But her accounts were frozen.

She found the money somewhere.

MINA: That won't change
the outcome. She's a murderer.

The jury will convict her.

We have interviews at the clinic

for our new primary care doc.

- Yeah.
- Good, I'll meet you there.

I have to check in with Dr. Austin.

I can't believe this.

We have to let
the legal system do its job.

I'm thinking two zolpidem
and a half a quart of whiskey.

MINA: He left a fine woman
at the altar last night

in front of both their families.

I have no sympathy.

- (GRUNTS)
- Go home!

- Ooh.
- DEVON: I can't.

Priya's there. She doesn't leave
for San Francisco until Friday.

Wow, no wife and no home.

I at least feel pity for you.

He was sniffing around Julian.
The device rep?

An engaged man out there, on the prowl.

(SIGHS)

I thought better of you.

You're a little too hard on him.

The heart wants what the heart wants.

Sometimes the head has no control.

We all have a moral compass,

and we have a choice
to follow it or not.

He had feelings for Julian?
He should have avoided her.

Instead, he kept spending time with her.

What did he think would happen?

Anyway, when I'm done
with the clinic, I'll find you.

What do we have on deck?

Uh, just a VATS case.

You'll be bored. Go join Dr. Voss.

BAI: Here are files on the candidates.

Are you going to be volunteering
on a regular basis?

Bai was our first med student
to sign up.

Who do we have first?

Um, Dr. Christina Ruiz.

Graduated from Johns Hopkins
in family medicine.

Huh, sounds promising.

Let's get started.

RUIZ:Your clinic would be
the perfect fit for me.

I spent last year in Haiti
with Partners in Health.

I grew up in Atlanta
and want to give back.

Serve the underserved.

Access. Too many hospitals
treat and street.

There's no continuity.

Do you have any questions for us?

Yes. The salary posted,
was that monthly?

I'm kind of between jobs.

What if you pay
my malpractice insurance?

I've got a fair number

of totally frivolous lawsuits.

I'm sorry, but with the amount

of med school debt I'm carrying,

you don't need a physician,
you need a saint.

Is that really everyone?

Okay, uh, I wasn't gonna mention it,

because it's a super long shot,

but if "saint" is the criteria,
I do know of a guy.

Oh, there he is.

Dr. Alec Shaw.

First he was an infectious disease doc,

then he volunteered on a Navajo
reservation doing outreach.

After that he got into family medicine.

I first saw him
in my hometown, New Orleans.

Why didn't you mention him before?

BAI: He just landed in Atlanta.

He's always on the move.

And he hates hospitals.

Hates institutionalized medicine.

Oh. I like him already.

NIC: So he has no fixed
practice? No office?

He has kind of an office.

NIC: Well, let's go talk to him.

Um, you'll have to wait your turn.

He never lets anyone jump the line.

Hmm. My shift starts in 20 minutes.

Oh, you guys go. I-I got this.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

All right, good luck.

(BEAT PLAYING OVER STEREO)

- Thank you, Doctor.
- You bet.

CHARLIE: Belly bomb?

of powdered sugar on top,

You're now the device rep?
Where's Julian?

Who-who's Julian?

Hold on.

I bet you're more of a glazed man.

H-How about jelly? No?

That guy is Julian's replacement.

CONRAD: Where is she?

I don't know.

She said she was gonna quit and leave
town, and now she's ghosting me.

That's harsh.

Look, about yesterday,

I'm sorry, man.

How's your dad?

Not clear yet.

You should go home.

(SIGHS) I don't have one at the moment.

And I'd rather work.

I hear that. (CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHS SOFTLY)

There's an arm lac in ER Three.

I think you might want to take this one.

- Okay.
- Look, what do you want me to do?

They're
gonna stitch me up and then we'll leave.

I... you know,
I didn't mean to fall, I fell.

We should have just watched it on TV.

No way. You, of all people,
had to be there.

I'm Dr. Hawkins. What's going on?

We were at a protest, it got crazy.

- At the prison?
- Yeah.

And neither one of us
are happy that we ended up here.

Lane Hunter killed Roger's sister.

She came in with stage I breast cancer.

Lane treated it like it was stage IV.

All Judy probably needed
was a lumpectomy.

Instead, she died from a
reaction to Dr. Hunter's chemo.

I am so sorry.

I am not exactly a fan
of Dr. Hunter either.

Let's have a look at that arm.

- She had a pretty bad fall.
- Uh, it was a big crowd.

I tripped. Just stitch me up
and send me home.

ROGER: Natalie used to be a cop.
Nothing fazes her.

Well, I'm seeing some bruising here.

I'm gonna order an X-ray just to
make sure there's no fracture.

Hey, you're not hearing me.

I'm fine. Stitch me and I'm out.

And she doesn't like doctors.

I get it. I know what Dr. Hunter did.

Dr. Hunter gave Natalie chemo
and she didn't even have cancer.

She's the reason I'm no longer a cop.

Soon as I get an answer,
I'll let you know.

GRAYSON: Doc-Doctor Bell.

(PHONE RINGING)

(SIGHS)

Yeah?

My hero.

Dr. Bell, you have a call...

I bailed you out,

I got you a great legal team.
Now it's time to hand over

the deposition and the tape.

I'm checking into
a very nice hotel. Come by.

Alone, of course.

And let's discuss.

I'll send my lawyer.

Excuse me. Turn around here,

go to Chastain Park.

I'm on my way to you.

What hotel?

Roger and I became friends
at Dr. Hunter's clinic.

Poor guy drove his sister to
every one of her appointments.

That's a good brother.

Yeah, that's what I tell him,
but he still blames himself.

What diagnosis were you given
for the weakness in your legs?

Neuropathy from the chemo.

It just won't get better.
Yeah, today it's even worse.

Protest must have really wore me out.

Well, let's make sure it's nothing more.

- We have one of the best
- No.

orthopedic spinal surgeons
in the country, Dr. Voss.

I want her to check you out.

Look, I was a legacy officer
in the Atlanta PD.

My mom before me, Grandpa before that.

I wish I could have it all back,
but I can't.

Accepting that was
the hardest thing I've done,

but I did it.

This isn't the discharge desk.

I had a patient here.

She came in after having
a reaction to chemo from Lane.

Shock again, at 360!

The night she coded,

we all fought to save her.

(GRUNTS)

(EXHALING)

(FLATLINING)

I can't bring Lily back,

but if there is any possible way

to fix your legs, I want to find it.

Give me and Dr. Voss one hour.

One hour.

(PAGER BEEPING)

(MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY)

- How long has that been going off?
- It just started.

The RT's in a code down the
hall. Should I call for backup?

No, hold on,
his respiratory rate's too high.

Mr. Winthrop's peak pressure
is climbing.

He needs more sedation.

No, it's the vent settings.

It's trapping air in his lungs.
We need to get him off of it.

But he hasn't had
a spontaneous breathing trial.

- I'm getting an attending.
- (GRUNTS)

The vent's too high.
It was stacking his breaths.

He's awake, we can extubate.

(CHOKING)

(PANTING)

CONRAD (WHISPERS): It's okay. I got you.

BELL:So you blackmail me
with a sex tape,

tell me to come alone,

and now you bring a lawyer?

Ugh, calm down.

Now, Martin handled the wire transfer.

You are paid back, my friend.

BLACKMAR: The funds were
transferred from a shell company

in the Bahamas to an account
in your lawyer's name,

so there's no evidence
of a financial relationship

between you and Dr. Hunter.

Great.

- Now the deposition and the sex tape.
- Okay,

- Randolph, relax, please?
- Not feeling too relaxed.

LANE: Well, then, try.

I plan to.

Probably somewhere
with palm trees and dark rum

and pool boys with very little clothing.

(LAUGHS) Oh.

But first
we have to get past this trial.

Cancer treatment is complicated.

The trial's outcome
will depend largely on how

Dr. Hunter's chemo protocols
are perceived.

The jury will rely on testimony
from medical experts.

Pillars of the community,
ready to stand up for her.

You want me to testify publicly

about what a great doctor
you are? Are you insane?

Uh... why don't you just tell
the jury the facts, Randolph?

Cancer treatment requires
experimentation.

Oncologists routinely
use drugs off-label.

When ones that the FDA approves
don't work,

we improvise. Why? To save lives.

Find someone else.

All right, can we just
have a minute alone?

All right, I'll tell you what...
release the tape.

I'll bounce back. I'm not the only CEO

who's had consensual sex
with an unfortunate partner.

I'm done being blackmailed.

You're done when I say you're done.

- You killed Lily Kendall.
- No, I didn't.

Which is exactly why they have
no evidence to prove I did.

You're the only one with a motive,

you were at the hospital that night,

I saw you there, and I'll testify to it.

Hmm. You know, I heard once
about an appendectomy patient

that died in your OR.

You know, we all make mistakes,
but something tells me

you've had more than your share.

Whatever secrets you have, Randolph,

I'll find them.

I'll hire a medical detective,

I'll depose your entire OR staff.

Well, my staff will back me up

long before they'll support you.

(DOOR CLOSES)

ALEC: Good news, brother.

You're not dead. Bad news?
You got maggots.

Hold tight, you're up next.

Oh, um, I'm not actually a patient.

I'm a nurse practitioner
from Chastain Park.

I wanted to talk to you about
the community clinic...

I already told your med student no.

You want to switch it out
every couple hours.

Hamburger's gonna draw 'em out
faster than any drug

you're gonna get at her hospital.

Cheaper.

Safer, too.

GLADYS: Come on, Sammy, we're next.

The clinic will be free.
And with more supplies

and volunteers,
you can reach more patients.

And it's a lot bigger than
what you're working with here.

I grew up in a converted
school bus in Tennessee.

It was my dad's idea,
and not his best one.

Or his worst.

11 kids. Lots of government cheese.

So, to me, this is the Taj Mahal.

- (SAMMY WHOOPS)
- GLADYS: Sammy, knock it off.

- This is fun.
- You know, he's going through

- this licking phase.
- ALEC: Is it metal?

GLADYS: It is metal.

I got something for him.

Strawberry, my favorite.

(LAUGHS) Good choice, little man.

All right, Gladys,
let's see that finger.

So, your boy's licking metal

'cause he's got a mineral deficiency.

A good multivitamin is all you need.

GLADYS: Oh, okay.

ALEC: Let's see here.

(DEVICE BEEPING)

Hey, look at you. Sugar's down.

You been hitting that South Bend
Park? Eating those greens?

GLADYS: Stopping diabetes before
I get it, just like you said.

(CHUCKLES)

SAMMY: Thanks for the lollipop, Doctor.

Look, I'd love to talk to you
for just a few minutes.

Look, I don't have time for breaks.

I got a long line out there, so...

I heard you got free flu shots.

Yes, we do.

You ever had a reaction to one of these?

- No.
- Take a seat.

I'll help you get your line down

if you give me some pointers
on how to run our clinic.

All right, you're gonna feel
a light pinch.

You were diagnosed with
nerve damage from the chemo,

but actually the chemo
caused osteopenia.

You see this here?

You had a tiny fracture on your T12.

That's what caused
the weakness in your legs.

When you fell today, it got worse.

Now it's compressing
against the spinal cord.

It's become an emergency.

I knew it. I knew one test
and I'd end up in surgery.

CONRAD: No, Natalie,

these two are the real deal.

Listen to Dr. Voss.

KIT: It's nothing short of a
miracle that we caught this.

If we don't operate,

you'll be paralyzed from
the waist down within hours.

But if you get in there right
away, there's a chance

they can remove
the compression altogether.

You would have your strength back.

And then everything that Lane took
from you, that'd be in the rearview.

Back surgery is dangerous.

KIT: Are there risks? Yes.
But the alternative

is you'll spend your life
in a wheelchair.

I can give you a really good
shot at walking alone.

(CHUCKLES): I'm so mad at you.

Is that a yes?

- I don't get it.
- Thank you.

I don't know why
she's not texting me back.

Salespeople move on. So should you.

Julian still thinks
I got married last night.

- I have to tell her, or then...
- Julian is not returning your texts.

Get a grip, bruh.

- How many did you send?
- Like...

Oh, so y-you're going for the
crazy stalker approach, huh?

Listen to me, it's not a good look.

Stop.

ARMY GENERAL: As new
technologies emerge in medicine,

as in other fields,
the U.S. military strives

to be on the cutting edge
of the industry.

That's why we're at QuoVadis today.

Gordon, I hear from DARPA, the
first thing they want to look at

is the impact
of your VNS device on memory.

You want to use it to cure PTSD?

We're interested in the possibility.

This company's future
with the military is limitless.

Don't you agree?

- Hey, you ready for the OR?
- I'm a little stressed.

No.

No, make that scared.

- But let's do this.
- Is she okay?

I need an EKG now.

Your heart's racing.

Has this ever happened to you before?

Palpitations sometimes. Nothing big.

I've never had my spine
sliced into, so...

- (MONITOR BEEPING)
- Natalie, breathe.

Breathe. Natalie. Get the crash cart.

Pulse 160, BP's dropping.

She's in unstable V tach. Defib!

- (DEFIBRILLATOR WHIRS)
- All right, 200. Let's go.

- Clear.
- Natalie.

300. Clear.

Give her 150 of amio
and transfer her to the ICU.

ROGER: What's wrong with her?

With the amount of chemo Lane gave her,

I'm worried the dosages
also damaged her heart.

All right.

You bought a good hour
of my time by helping out.

Why do you do it? What drives you?

Uh, grew up in a church.

Service to the poor,
the needy, the stranger...

it's in my DNA. You know,
I'm a lapsed Catholic, at best,

but the drive to reach people
others ignore is still there.

You did a stint on a Navajo
reservation with PIH?

Yeah, that's where I learned
problems start upstream.

You got to keep people
from getting sick to begin with.

Vaccines are gonna do more
than rosaries.

Now I hand out condoms
instead of prayers.

I noticed you're low on basic supplies.

I get more from the Georgia Prescription
Assistance Program next week.

What if I could score what you need now?

(CHUCKLES)

This place could use some love.

Well, if you know any contractors

jonesing to help
some people out, let me know.

So why are you doing all this?

Knock-knock.

Oh, sorry, sir,

we're not actually open right now.

Oh, okay, uh,
I-I just saw the sign and...

What's going on here?

I was playing catch with my kid
and, uh, took one in the eye.

Can't really see anything out of it.

- What's your name, brother?
- Russell.

Let me just look at this eye, Russell.

Yeah, orbital compartment syndrome.

Yeah, if we don't relieve

some of that pressure,
he's gonna lose his eye.

Do I have to go to the ER?

I have lousy insurance. Huge deductible.

And I just paid my student loans.

Uh... you'll need
an ophthalmology consult

in the ER after this, but
we can do the procedure here.

Yeah, we have everything we need
here, and it'll save you some money.

(SIGHS) Okay.

- Mm-mm.

- There you go.
- (WHISPERS): There we go.

There you go. There you go.

My eye still there?

Still there.

ALEC: Congrats.

Looks like your clinic
just treated its first patient.

Well, he still needs
that consult, so it looks like

you're going to Chastain after all.

Natalie definitely has
chemo-induced cardiomyopathy.

And the compression fracture

has a large bone fragment that's causing

- her spinal cord compression.
- Decompression and fusion

is the only way to give
her a chance of walking.

We need to get in there now.

Implant the cage here for spine fusion.

Her heart might not be strong enough.
She's in the ICU on an amio drip.

We can try to manage it with ACE
inhibitors and beta-blockers...

We don't have time. We've
got three, maybe four hours

before the compression
becomes irreversible.

If she survives surgery.

Lane took Natalie's choices away.

We're giving her this one back.

- I came in for some damn stitches!
- Natalie, they're trying to help.

This is crap! My options are

full paralysis or possible death?

Or full recovery. That's the hope.

KIT: We do the fusion

while monitoring your cardiac function.

NATALIE: You're the heart guy, right?

So?

Well, under normal circumstances,
I would advise against it,

but these are not normal circumstances.

Dr. Hawkins...

what would you do?

You are the one who's gonna have
to live with this decision,

so you are the one who needs to make it.

But if it was me...

I am not letting
Lane Hunter hold me down.

I'm taking the risk.

Crap.

I got to try.

- You gave me a scare.
- They said...

I almost died.

I'm sorry I wasn't here.

I shouldn't have left you.

Always taking the weight
of the world on your shoulders.

The blame.

Not this time.

WELL, YOU ASKED FOR ONE THING: no Bell.

(CHUCKLES WEAKLY)

I guess he's better than nothing.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

I want things to change for us.

I've waited a long time
to hear those words.

Well, hey, we're both stubborn.

Yeah, that's... that's true. (CHUCKLES)

Hmm.

I have spent half my life
without a father.

We're gonna fix that.

CONRAD: I'm gonna hold you to that.

Thank you.

Excuse me, um, I'm looking
for Dr. Bell's office.

Tenth floor.

Hey, uh, you're Julian's boss, right?

Yeah. Gordon Page.

Devon Pravesh.

Have you spoken to Julian today?

No. She didn't show up for work.

Had to get a replacement.

A no-show isn't like her,
but I guess it's

because of what
she's been going through.

Yeah. She, um, mentioned
some issues with work.

Really? What'd she tell you?

Honestly, not much.

Yeah, Julian told someone in the office

that she got too close
to a doctor at Chastain,

and it turned into more than she wanted.

I just hope he didn't
scare her off. She's good.

Anyway, thanks for the directions.

Great news. Ophthalmology says

that Russell's eye is looking good.

They're gonna keep him
overnight for observation.

Is that necessary?
It's gonna rack up a bill

- he won't be able to pay.
- Hey.

- Can I help?
- ALEC: I doubt you can do anything

about a bloated hospital billing system

that charges 300 bucks for an aspirin.

Conrad, this is Dr. Shaw.
Alec, Dr. Hawkins.

We're trying to get him
to run the clinic.

Can't get past
the toxic hospital culture,

the lack of transparency,
the endless documentation...

Don't forget about the upcoding,

fragmentation of care,
over-testing, overtreatment.

- Not helping.
- Look, we know

we're going up against Goliath.

And it's true, all we got's a slingshot.

But we have damn good aim.

Well, it seems like a waste
of both your talents.

I do my own thing. Sorry.

Eh. No worries. Just remember, wars
are fought on the battlefield,

not from the sidelines.

Look, let me buy you a cup of coffee,

- introduce you to the team...
- No, I got to get back.

It's nice meeting you, Nic.

(NIC SIGHS)

(QUIETLY): Damn. He was perfect.

I don't believe it.

AUSTIN: Deflating the lung.

(AIR HISSES)

Dr. Voss, you have spinal access.

KIT: I would have risked
the surgery, too.

Really? You would risk it all just
for a chance of something better?

MINA: For the chance
at the life you want,

so would I.

KIT: Oh, hell.

The bone is weak from the chemo.
I can't get fixation.

What about a graft from her hip?

We can't get it fast enough.

Dr. Okafor, what's our move?

Let me see her X-rays.

All right, show me her ribs.

They're less damaged. We
can make a graft from her ribs.

How long do you think
it'll take? Her echo was showing

severely depressed ejection fraction.

We'll have to move fast, then.

Julian?

(CLATTERING)

Hey, it's Devon.

Are you okay?

Look, I know I shouldn't be here,

but, um, what you said about QuoVadis...

we should talk about it.

We should talk about everything.

Just call me.

Please.

- (LINE RINGING)
- All right, he's gone.

Mr. Page?

Yeah, the place is clean.

Someone came by.

Yeah, same guy.

Security's on the way.

This office is a shrine to your ego.

Lacking confidence without me?

Hardly. You have about two minutes

to say whatever it is
you came here to say.

You know, words aren't getting
through to you, Randolph.

So I thought that this... might.

Really brings out the desperation
in your eyes, don't you think?

Where did you get that?

That lawyer you found me,
he can dig up anything.

Now, tell me something.
What do you think is worse?

Trying to buy sex from an undercover cop

or failing to self-report your arrest

to the State Medical Board?

So, where's the copier?

I think everyone

- will want their very own.
- You're a monster.

Look around, Randolph.

Either you agree to tell the jury

You know, my first year as an attending,

they brought a guy into my OR
with six bullet holes.

He killed two cops, and everybody
said he deserved to die.

When I pick up a scalpel, I don't care

who's on the other end.

That's the discipline.

I'm a surgeon first.
That's all that matters to me.

Oh, so you wanted to kill me,
but you were...

too principled.

That's charming.

(BEEPING)

You paged me?

You don't 911-page me to come to you.

That's Natalie Ramirez.
Lane Hunter ruined her life.

Destroyed her heart and her spine

with chemo that she didn't need.

And now she may die in that OR.

And she's one of the lucky ones.

You think I don't care? I do.

Then why was Lane in your office?

Guess what. I am sick and tired

of you thinking you have
any right to question me.

You're a resident.

Who I would love to fire.

Except your father,
whose life I just saved...

thank you very much... would fire me.

So you got me down here
to see this woman.

I've seen her.

Good for you.

Made my day.

If Lane gets off, how many others
like Natalie will there be?

(SIGHS)

KIT: This should do the trick.

MINA: Spinal nerves still viable.

(BUZZING)

(BEEPING)

AUSTIN: She's in V tach again.

Wet laps.

AUSTIN: The anesthesia is too much
for her heart. We need to stop.

- KIT: Get the cage and screws ready.
- MINA: Clear.

Just let me finish fusing.

- Clear!
- It's in.

(BEEPING CONTINUES)

AUSTIN: On three. One, two, three.

(GRUNTS) Clear.

She needs double
sequential defibrillation.

Give her another 150 amio.

Start a procainamide drip.

Clear. And go.

(STEADY BEEPING)

She doesn't have the time
you need to finish the spine.

We need to take her back
to the ICU, let her stabilize.

We do that, she's paralyzed.

We don't and she's dead.

Can you stabilize her here?

Central line to assess the cardiac index

and output numbers.
How long would it take, Okafor?

For most, five minutes. For you, four.

- And if she needs ventricular assist?
- 20 to deploy percutaneously.

Her spine can stay in a sterile
dressing while you work.

I need 30 to finish,
then we get her back to ICU.

AUSTIN: All right. Heart first,

then spine, if she's still stable.

MINA: And if her spinal cord
is still viable.

ALEC: Nic?

You're here.

Grant applications.

All day...

I've been trying to get you to join us.

And it has been... (EXHALES)

a day.

There's so much I can't fix.

But this, this clinic...

I can do.

And I'll do it without you.

Don't get me wrong...
what you're doing here is great.

But is it really about the patients?

Seems like...

you'd rather rail
against a broken system

than actually fight to change it.

You serious?

I spent the better part of my life
in service. All I do is fight.

Well, maybe not hard enough.

HANCOCK: So, this is about
one of your employees?

Julian Booth.

Um... she never showed up for work today

and is not the type to just disappear.

Well, do you have reason to believe
that someone could have hurt her?

There's a guy you may want to look into.

Um, he's an intern at Chastain.

His name is Devon Pravesh.

This is her work phone.

We found it at her desk.

(STEADY BEEPING)

Mm, I'm alive.

And you're gonna stay that way.

We had to place a ventricular device

to keep your heart pumping effectively,

and we'll schedule a transplant
eval when you're healed.

Right now it's working perfectly.

KIT: And after PT and rehab,
you'll be able to walk again.

Will I be able to go back
to the police force?

We don't know that yet.

But...

you are gonna lose that cane.

That much I can promise you. (CHUCKLES)

NATALIE: I hate that thing.

(CHUCKLES)

(LAUGHS)

ROGER: You deserve to be happy.

NATALIE: So do you.

Your sister would've wanted that.

Thanks, guys.

Easy on the hot water.

Sit when you pee.

You may use my condiments,
but do not touch my alcohol.

I would never.

Outside of the guest room,
it's either clothing

or a bathrobe with full coverage.

I don't want any surprises.

Why are you helping me?

Because you need it.

Wayne Jackson.

In asystole for 15 minutes
before anyone noticed.

Kathy Mars. The hospital billed her
12 grand for a damn bee sting.

Matthew Teter came in
with stage IV colon cancer.

He would've lived
if he'd had early detection.

Every time I thought I got close
to making things better,

I saw another patient lose
to a broken system.

So, yes, it is
about the patients for me.

But you're crazy if you think
you can change things.

Maybe I am.

(SIGHS)

I like crazy.

(CHUCKLES)

- Yeah, sure.
- Here.

NIC (QUIETLY):
We'll just, uh, get these...

ALEC: So the pay sucks.

Beyond sucks.

And Chastain could slash
our funding at any time?

Without warning.

I won't be bossed around.

You start tomorrow.

I start now.

(CHUCKLES)

Congratulations.

You graduated from the ICU.

Eh. Yeah, unfortunately,
not from clear liquids.

You need something for the pain?

MARSHALL: No.

No, I want to be alert for this.

Son, I've been fighting
this disease for a while now.

I got lucky this time,

but it only gets worse from here.

Dr. Simmons says you will be
back on semisolid foods

in a week. In two to three days,
you will be out of the hospital

and starting physical therapy.

- You will get your strength back.
- We both know

my chances for a meaningful
recovery become less

and less with each surgery I have.

I need you to stay positive.

Patients who believe they'll
recover have better outcomes.

Positive thinking
won't change what's happening

to this body of mine.

I'd like to formalize things.

You want an advanced directive.

If something like this
happens to me again,

I don't want my life prolonged

by aggressive measures.

- That's a long way off.
- I'm serious.

I need to know you'll respect my wishes.

Of course.

Thank you.

BELL: Dear Board of Directors,

Leading this hospital

has been a joy and a privilege.

However, in the coming days,

you will learn of a terrible
mistake I have made.

I betrayed your trust.

You deserve someone who will
always put this community first.

And I am deeply ashamed that I
have not always been that person.

I put my trust in the wrong person.

(KNOCKING)

Coming.

And I take full responsibility
for my actions.

(GASPING)

I will step down and step away.

I hereby resign as CEO

and Chief of Surgery.

Dr. Randolph Bell.

(RAPID KNOCKING)

Uh, Dr. Bell?

You need to see this.

Grayson, what?

It's the news.

NEWSCASTER: shots fired
in a Buckhead hotel.

Police report they found the body of
accused murderer Dr. Lane Hunter.

Recently out on bail
after several months

in the Atlanta Detention Center,

Hunter was arrested
for first-degree murder

and involuntary manslaughter,

as well as insurance fraud
and money laundering.

No suspects have been named
in her death.

In related news,
victim rights advocates...

Um... thank you, Grayson. You can go.

NEWSCASTER: Not stepping forward,
not commenting on the death.

Many of them vocal just months
ago, and now they're not...
