you just spent more time
at work.
695
00:38:15,544 --> 00:38:16,669
When you knew he
couldn't be fixed,
696
00:38:16,670 --> 00:38:18,838
you just stopped trying.
697
00:38:18,839 --> 00:38:23,801
You let him become a shell
of a man, and then you left him.
698
00:38:23,802 --> 00:38:26,054
But you think I should try
harder?
699
00:38:27,973 --> 00:38:32,059
- After all these years,
you're still trying to fix him.
700
00:38:32,060 --> 00:38:35,563
And it doesn't matter how
many patients you treat, honey.
701
00:38:35,564 --> 00:38:38,733
It's not going to bring
him back.
702
00:38:38,734 --> 00:38:40,943
And the sooner
that you deal with this,
703
00:38:40,944 --> 00:38:45,031
the sooner you will stop
making decisions
704
00:38:45,032 --> 00:38:47,074
that primarily serve you.
705
00:38:47,075 --> 00:38:50,161
- What I did was for Roman.
706
00:38:50,162 --> 00:38:53,748
His choice, not mine.
707
00:38:53,749 --> 00:38:56,667
- A choice that hurt
this technology,
708
00:38:56,668 --> 00:38:59,420
other patients out there
who could benefit from this.
709
00:38:59,421 --> 00:39:02,089
- I will always focus on the
patient right in front of me.
710
00:39:02,090 --> 00:39:04,009
- Huh.
711
00:39:06,344 --> 00:39:08,179
I'm glad you have
that privilege.
712
00:39:08,180 --> 00:39:12,433
- You and I are never
gonna see eye to eye, Mom.
713
00:39:12,434 --> 00:39:16,604
If you want to terminate me
because of that, then do it.
714
00:39:16,605 --> 00:39:18,230
That's on you.
715
00:39:18,231 --> 00:39:28,449

716
00:39:28,450 --> 00:39:31,327
- Hey, Ericka.
717
00:39:31,328 --> 00:39:33,621
You holding up?
718
00:39:33,622 --> 00:39:34,830
- If stuff like that
comes with the job,
719
00:39:34,831 --> 00:39:37,625
I'm glad we have each other.
720
00:39:37,626 --> 00:39:40,461
- I've been wanting to ask
you something,
721
00:39:40,462 --> 00:39:42,254
and I could be totally off base
here,
722
00:39:42,255 --> 00:39:43,923
but, um,
the past couple of days,
723
00:39:43,924 --> 00:39:47,468
I've been getting a sense
that you have, uh, feelings.
724
00:39:47,469 --> 00:39:49,595
Good ones, big ones.
725
00:39:49,596 --> 00:39:51,722
- You felt that?
- [ Sighs ]
726
00:39:51,723 --> 00:39:53,641
- Of course you did.
727
00:39:53,642 --> 00:39:56,060
You're right.
728
00:39:56,061 --> 00:39:57,937
I am.
729
00:39:57,938 --> 00:40:00,689
I do.
