[Kit] Previously on The Resident…

[Cade] I saw you pocket the pills. You're
not having an issue with that again?

Your twins are in grave danger.

Just do whatever you have to do.
Please save my babies.

Smaller one's heart rate
is climbing to 103.

I'll see you tonight.

If this idiot becomes our new governor,
we'll have less than we ever had.

-He's polling ahead.
-Yeah, I wish I was there to help.

No. You're exactly where you need to be.

I have some good news. They're trying me
on a new anti-CD20 antibody,

and I'm tolerating it really well.

[newscaster] State Assemblywoman,
Camille Rogers,

is in a much tougher fight
than many expected.

Opponent Mark Betz,

the billionaire real estate
and finance entrepreneur,

is a first-time candidate
for public office.

Hey. I got your email. I'll have
those OR numbers to you by end of day.

Thanks. I'm trying to prepare
for the worst,

in case Betz becomes governor.

-How's it looking?
-It's too close for my liking.

How is that possible?

Betz hasn't even held public office.

But he has millions to spend
on attack ads.

So now half the state's gonna reject
an experienced woman

who wants to give them
healthcare and education.

Apparently, that just doesn't resonate

like "billionaire who wants
to slash social services."

Who would actually cut funding
to public hospitals?

Well, let's hope
we don't have to find out.

Is everything okay otherwise?

How's Randolph's treatment
going at the clinic?

He's responding well. His… his team are…

uh, encouraged. I'm working on it.

I worry about you
when I get emails at 3:00 a.m.

Oh, it's just this election.
It's got me tied up in knots.

All we can do is vote
and hope for the best, right?

Can't worry about things we can't control.

Those things worry me the most.

[chuckles softly]

[newscaster] Georgia's new voting laws
have taken effect,

leading to massive delays
throughout the state.

I can be on time or I can do
my civic duty this morning, not both.

Democracy needs you. We can cover.

It's slow here anyway.

Now, you know you shouldn't have said that
out loud, right?

Relax.

[phone clicks in cradle]

What?

Unbelievable.

Are you deaf?

Quit checking your Bitcoin
and move the hell up.

[yelps, groans]

-[people gasping, murmuring]
-Are you kidding me?

A line is a social contract
between citizens!

We're all interdependent!
Do you know what that means?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

We're all tired of waiting,
but you gotta dial it down.

I'm not your brother.
Go back to where you came from.

-[gasping, murmuring]
-[man 1] Chill.

-[man 2] Did you hear that?
-Came from Atlanta, gringo.

Where are you from?

Assault! You all saw that!
This man assaulted me!

-Hey, you need to back off!
-Police! This man's assaulting me!

-[grunting]
-[gasping]

[grunting]

[yells, groaning]

I'm at St. Anthony of the Cross
Community Center.

There are multiple injuries,
a cardiac arrest, a blunt trauma.

We're gonna need some medics here now!

[opening theme music playing]

Hey. Any exit polls yet?

Not yet. But they're thinking
it won't be decided tonight.

Well, if you need a distraction,
I could use your help with a consult.

I can clear something. What's up?

Well, I just got off the phone
with one of my trial patients,

and he's having severe back pain.

He tends to be a minimizer,
so I know he's suffering.

Which trial is this?

Multiple sclerosis.

He's been doing pretty well
with the treatment,

but the pain is bad enough
that he hasn't been able to walk.

So maybe an MS flare.
But if he's not mobile…

Then he can't be a part
of the trial any longer.

Exactly. So I'm hoping
that we can help reverse it.

Happy to take a look.

How's the trial going otherwise?

We're getting good results
with one of the treatments.

Well-tolerated, limited side effects.

How does it compare
to the new anti-CD20 meds?

Randolph's been responding well to those.

That's good news. We haven't been able
to compare it with other treatments yet.

We need to expand the study.

-Which means more funding.
-Yes.

Another reason we're hoping
this election goes our way.

-I don't see your little sticker.
-Oh, I'm gonna hit the polls at lunch.

Yeah, make sure you do.

All right. And we also got
your lavender essential oils

and palo santo,

which, if you ask me, looks like
an overpriced bundle of sticks.

Oh. Padma, I'm so sorry…

they only had regular cheese puffs.

[Padma] Oh.

-[sighs] That's okay.
-Look at you.

Thought I could not get my hands
on some spicy cheesies?

[squeals, laughs]

[laughing] It's about the only thing
on the list I do understand.

Thank you. You have no idea
what this means to me.

I think I do have an idea.

You know, I tried this online recipe
for keto cheesies once.

Never again.

-[beeps]
-I'm gonna pretend I didn't hear that.

Uh, I got to go review
some pre-op echocardiograms.

But, wait, I wanna show you
this amazing documentary.

The Himalayas are gonna have to wait.

I'm done with the Himalayas.
[sighs] It's ocean docs now…

-Ocean docs?
-See, the thing about octopuses…

Not "octopi," only pretentious people
say that.

…is that they're supposedly
so intelligent and compassionate

that scientists think
they're a lifeform from outer space.

-Scientists, huh?
-Mm-hmm, you have to see this one scene.

Uh, look, I really gotta
check it out later.

I got to go. See you soon.

Okay, wait, I'll send it to you.

Morning, everyone.

-Doctor Hawkins.
-Doctor Sullivan.

Aw, they still call
each other "doctor" at work.

Very professional.
We all know you're dating, doctors.

Can't stay out of my ER, huh?

You know how much I love being surrounded
by undifferentiated illness.

-[chuckles]
-Plus you keep slipping out before I'm up.

-Mm, a girl's gotta vote.
-Uh-huh.

Well, Gigi would love to share
some Nutty Wheats with you

whenever you're ready to make
the big leap.

I was actually thinking I'd introduce
you both to Crispy Chuck tonight.

-Your ex-boyfriend from high school?
-Mm, good one.

No, it's Crispy Chuck's Chicken Truck.
It's the best.

You have to be on a secret list
to know about it.

Letting me in on your chicken truck.

Wow, well, this is… this is big.

I'm glad you appreciate the significance.

Sorry to interrupt this summit.
Hundley called the triage line.

-Multiple trauma victims incoming.
-[Cade] From where?

There was an all-out brawl
at a polling station.

[chuckles] Democracy in action.

Let's put out a page for back-up.

I think I can beg off rounds,
help out for a bit.

-Knowing you, you're gonna need it.
-Just try and keep up?

-[siren blaring]
-Forties-ish female, head injury.

-Possible concussion.
-Let's get her to Trauma 11.

I'll get started on her assessment.

What was she struck with?

One of those folding chair-cane things.
Don't ask.

All right, let's get heat stroke
to Bay Four.

Asthma attack to Bay One,
wrist injury to Bay Seven. Hawkins?

I'm reassigning you to
this periorbital hematoma, Trauma Ten.

-On it. Jessica, can you take that for me?
-Cardiac arrest?

Got a pulse, but he's going in and out.

-That one's for me.
-Thank you. Trauma Nine.

Love the smell of napalm in the morning.

-What's his injury?
-I'm fine. I don't need this.

-He got tackled, might have broken ribs.
-Hundley and I can take him.

Find place in the hallway,
we're running out of space.

Yeah.

Didn't I tell you never to say
the S-L-O-W word out loud?

That's a made-up superstition.

From a man who won't let
a sneeze go unblessed.

[Irving] Because that would be wrong.

Any signs of concussion?

[patient retches]

Okay, ondansetron, fluids and a stat CT
for possible skull fracture.

-And a fresh gown for you.
-Thank you.

How's the eye?

Orbital fracture, possible entrapment.
Might be looking at neurosurg and ophtho.

And we have a possible
skull fracture in Trauma 11.

-Yep.
-So let's get Dr. Sutton in here.

Hawkins, can you tag team
this guy with me?

-Sure.
-He got tackled.

Has acute abdominal pain.
Doesn't want imaging.

Just wants to get out of here.
Says it's his IBS.

-And he got it from the tackle?
-Yeah, I didn't push it.

Mr. Mendez, this is Dr. Hawkins.

-How's it going?
-Heard you took a bit of a tumble.

-But his lungs are clear.
-Little angry dude lost it.

-I'm fine.
-[Irving] Okay.

Let's take a look at these ribs.

-[winces]
-Does that hurt?

Told him I got IBS. I always hurt.

Well, I'm with Dr. Feldman,

we need to take some pictures,
make sure nothing's broken.

Look, I gotta get to work.

Sooner we find out what you need,
sooner you'll be on your way.

And we'll give you medication
for the pain.

Fine.

-Page me if his symptoms worsen.
-Thank you.

[reporter] Betz is pulling ahead…

I got the prior authorization
filled out for Mr. S's anticoagulation,

so hopefully this time
he doesn't forget to take it.

Most new interns hate paperwork.

And you seem like you actually like it.

I mean, I won't lie, my family's
on me constantly, like,

"When are you going to start
saving lives, Maya?"

-"This is why we sent you to med school."
-[laughs]

Of course, I don't mention
I'm the one paying the loans.

-Oh, immigrant parents. Am I right?
-[laughs]

[pager beeping]

ER just paged out a major code disaster.
That means multiple injuries.

-You wanna see some action?
-Bring it.

Now you have something to tell your folks.

-¡Sí, mamá, mucha sangre hoy!
-[laughs]

Hey. Thanks for coming.

Of course. Possible skull fracture?

Trauma 11, and an orbital fracture in Ten.

I'd start with the orbital.

Skull can wait, GCS is 15.

-Busy day.
-Yeah.

Hey. I got your page.

This is my intern, Maya Nuñez.
What can we do to help?

I got a sprained wrist in Bay Seven.

-That's it?
-Sorry?

Guess we did miss all the fun.

[man shouting]

-Don't speak too soon.
-[Stewart] Get off me!

I just need to make sure nothing's broken.

-Keep your hands off of me!
-Hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

-She's trying to take my eye out!
-It's okay, Stewart.

No one's trying to hurt you.

I wanna make sure
you have functional vision.

Stop!

Help! Stop!

Help! Let me go!

-Let's get some restraints.
-Call 911!

Get this lunatic out of here!

-Hang on.
-Ow! Stop!

He's a vet. I might have an idea
of what's going on here.

[distant chatter]

Thanks.

Good news. CT scan shows
your orbital bones won't need surgery.

-Great.
-Noticed your ink.

I was Navy, too. Corpsman in the Marines.

15th Expeditionary, 3rd battalion.

Oorah.

How long you been out?

Twelve years.

It's pretty tough in the Navy, man.

I was a sonar tech in Bangor.

Never deployed.

So…

what is going on, Stewart?

You seem pretty on edge.

[sighs] I don't know.

Sometimes, I just lose it.

[scoffs] I guess I'm getting old
and cranky like my dad.

Well, I'd like to do some blood work,
check out at a few things.

Can I call someone to come pick you up?

I'm staying with my sister.

She's not gonna be happy to hear from you.

You let me worry about that.

Be right back.

[indistinct pa announcement]

-[knocking]
-Yeah?

Ben, Jasper.

-This is Dr. Voss.
-Hi.

And she is
one of our orthopedic specialists.

-Pleasure to meet you, Ben, Jasper.
-Nice to meet you.

And I'm hoping that she can help us
figure out what's going on with your back.

So, Ben, how would you compare
your symptoms

to your previous MS flare-ups?

Oh, uh, this is nothing like my MS.

It came out of nowhere, one morning, boom!

Um, fire shooting down my legs.

Yeah, he couldn't get out of bed.
Excruciating pain.

And before this Ben was showing
some real promise in the clinical trial.

Yeah, well, my triathlon days
are behind me,

but, yeah, I was definitely
getting stronger.

Of course, we want to keep you
on that track.

Any incidents you can recall
that may have caused an injury?

I haven't done anything crazy.

-He did help me clean out the CD closet.
-Yeah, well, who keeps CDs?

Not me anymore.

Well, I'd like to get some imaging.

And I'm going to consult
with our neurosurgeon, Dr. Sutton.

So there's a chance, if this isn't my MS,
I can get back in the trial?

I see no reason to give up hope.

-We gotta keep our star athlete, right?
-Yeah. [chuckles]

[indistinct pa announcement]

Hey, I was just coming by to see
if you still need an extra set of hands.

Uh, we just got a moment
to breathe, but thanks.

-I think we have it handled.
-What the heck happened?

People attacking each other
at a polling place?

Mostly one crazy guy.

Are you sure you weren't there?

-The bump on your forehead.
-Oh!

[chuckling] Yeah, I hit it on a cabinet.
Doing too many things at once.

Mr. Incredible in the OR,
Mr. Magoo in the kitchen.

Everything's fine, Kincaid.

I didn't say anything.

I know the look.

You're sweet to worry, but, look,
Seattle was a long time ago. I'm good.

Promise.

-Okay.
-[pager beeping]

Ah. And if you're good…

Hey, just checking to see
if those head trauma pictures came in.

Yes, they did. No fracture.

-Just a concussion.
-That was lucky.

Oh, I've been meaning to ask you,
how's Gigi doing?

No nightmares the past week.
I'm hoping we're out of the woods.

Thanks for asking.

Must be so hard dealing with
all the parenting stuff alone.

Believe me, all I keep thinking about

is how great Nic would have been
at dealing with this.

Well, you're doing an amazing job.

Thank you.

Gigi misses you.

We should all do something
together again soon.

That's okay.
I'm sure your weekends are full.

Where's my cardiac patient?

Left AMA. Said he had to get back
to the polls.

Wow, that's a dedicated voter for you.

-[Hundley chuckles]
-Here. Brought you a fresh one.

Mm.

Oh, no, we're good over here, thank you.

Well, you're not the one who had to tackle
that Proud Boy in there.

My hero.

-He's not still here, is he?
-I'm just running a few tests.

Right, because "jerky dude"
is so hard to understand?

I should get back.

Hey, if you need to chill him out,
I got some nature docs from Padma.

-Thought it was mountain climbing.
-That was last week.

But seriously, there's a cool one
where this octopus

thanks a guy after he saves him
from a sandbar.

Excuse me, I'm here for my brother,
Stewart Mayer?

Yeah, Emma, hi. I'm Dr. Hawkins.
I left you a voice mail.

-Do you have a minute?
-[Emma] Yeah.

Great.

[Emma] A scalpel?

Uh, should he be coming home with me?

So this is… this is new,
this level of volatility?

Yeah, he's been on edge
ever since his wife left and…

lately, it's gotten pretty bad.

But before that, he was just
an annoying techbro mansplainer.

Is he on any medication?

Some over-the-counter stuff
when he had the flu?

[smacks lips]

I'm waiting on a few test results.
You mind hanging out for a bit?

Yeah, can I see him, actually?

Yeah, sure.

Anybody see this patient leave?

[sighs] Wait here, I'll go check outside.

Stewart?

Stewart…

I've been looking for you.

Your sister's here.
Why don't we go inside and talk to her?

Trying to quit, huh?

Yeah, obviously not going well.

Tried everything, hypnosis, pills.
Nothing works.

Taking medication to help you quit?

Yeah, why?

[Kit] Ben is 52.

Former competitive athlete.

Diagnosed with MS six years ago.

Well, I can see why he's in pain.

He has a fracture at T11.

Doesn't remember any impact or trauma.

With advanced MS and this degree
of osteoporosis,

this could have happened just moving
from his bed to the wheelchair.

He's responding really well
to Devon's clinical trial

and is hoping to continue,
so how do we help him?

Given his comorbidities,

my suggestion would be
non-surgical management.

Brace, pain control and physical therapy.

Which means he doesn't walk again.

There's no guarantee surgery
would restore his mobility, Kit.

I mean, there's a serious chance
he could end up with less.

And a smaller chance
he doesn't survive at all.

Risks we take with every procedure.

Ben is an athlete.

He'll be highly motivated
in his post-operative physical therapy.

Ben's motivation won't matter
if the procedure ends up paralyzing him,

or he ends up hopped up on pain medication
for the rest of his life.

That's a real possibility.

If there's hope for Ben
with this procedure,

don't we owe it to him
to give him that chance?

Let's present him the options
and let him make the decision.

I appreciate your caution.

I will talk him through the risks.

-Hey, Kit…
-Mm?

I don't know what you and Bell
are going through, obviously,

but I do know that chronic disease
is tough on caregivers, too.

If there's any support you need, I--

Thank you, Billie. You're very kind.

But this is about Ben.

I'm fine.

Your brother was prescribed medication
to help him quit smoking. Varenicline.

One of the side effects?

Aggression and mood swings.

So anti-smoking medication is what was
making him act like a lunatic? [chuckles]

-I wouldn't say "lunatic…"
-Uh, I would.

It's rare, but it is in the warnings.

I gave him some nicotine patches.

Things should go smoother
once he's off the varenicline.

I'm definitely getting off it.

Yeah. Maybe stay off Twitter, too.

That can also cause aggression
and mood swings.

Thank you very much, Dr. Hawkins.

You guys take care of yourselves.

Officer Carter, APD.

I need to speak
with the gentleman in this video.

[grunting]

-Is he being charged?
-[Hundley] Excuse me. Officer?

I was a witness in that incident

and the person who started it
is over there trying to leave.

-That's right!
-I don't care.

-I just need someone to make a statement.
-[Enrique] I will.

He's in respiratory distress!

I want to… I want to press charges!

[rapid beeping]

-[gasping]
-You're not pressing anything.

His lung is collapsing.

All right. Give me a scalpel,
a chest tube and suture.

-[dramatic music plays]
-[rapid beeping continues]

Fractured rib here
punctured Enrique's lung.

Must have happened when he got
agitated with the cop.

Well, the chest tube is on water seal
and the lung is re-expanding,

so he should be good
to check out of here tomorrow.

Oh, geez.

-[Conrad] What?
-Padma.

I have entertained her nature docs,
I have indulged in her aromatherapy,

and now she's on to astrology.

[chuckles]

Hey. Look at this.

Hmm.

Looks like some kind of mass
in his ascending colon,

causing partial bowel obstruction.

When I did the abdominal exam,
he said he had IBS.

Well, that's the catch-all phrase
for unknown GI distress.

Let's get him into surgery.

He needs to remove that blockage
before the bowel loses blood flow.

Let's scan the rest of his abdomen.
I guess it's good he broke a rib today.

Well, I'm sure Padma would say
it's in the stars.

Enrique Mendez, 46. Imaging
for a fractured rib and collapsed lung

revealed obstruction
with threatened bowel.

-Looks like he could perforate anytime.
-We need to get in there now.

-Is there a prognosis?
-Hard to say with those images.

There's likely malignancy,
but we won't know

until we get in and see the extent
of the location and the disease.

And would you be all right if I invited
my intern to come observe?

That depends. She a Capricorn?

Kidding. Your sister's killing me
with the astrology.

-Oh, sorry.
-Sure, you can join us.

Just buckle up. Might be a long one.

Thank you so much, Dr. Austin.

And for the record, I'm a Virgo.

[chuckles] First bowel surgery!

[Kit] Here you see the fracture
causing pressure on the spine.

We're gonna remove
this damaged piece of bone

and use rods to stabilize your spine.

After some physical therapy, you should be
back to where you were before.

So I'd be out of this chair.

That's the hope.

But what's the reality?

Well, there are several factors
in our favor here.

Ben's history with competitive sport,
for one.

All that grit and determination
will be essential in your recovery.

-Nice to know it's good for something.
-However, I would--

And our chief surgeon here at Chastain
is a top-notch neurosurgeon.

Dr. Sutton and I
will be operating together,

so it's an ideal team going into this.

But it has to be said that there is
no guarantee that you would regain

the mobility that you had before.

And we don't know you'd be able
to continue with the trial.

But if we don't do this surgery,

I'm not getting out of this chair
again, right?

Nothing is certain.

But with the progression of your MS,
yes, that is a likely scenario.

Can we… take some time to think?

-[Devon] Of course.
-I… I don't need time.

-I wanna do it.
-[Jasper] Ben.

-I think we should talk about this.
-I…

I wanna complete the trial.
We were getting good results.

-I'm not ready to give in.
-I advise that you talk it over.

But hold on to that spirit, Ben.

-Can we talk?
-I like him, he's a fighter.

I know. [sighs] That's why I'm concerned.

Every patient in every trial thinks
they're gonna be in the top 5%

of the best outcome.

And as we know,
patients with good attitudes

often have better outcomes.

But that's not enough.

Look, Ben came to me thinking
he was gonna play tennis again.

I've done a lot
to manage his expectations.

I don't believe I indicated
he'd play tennis.

But I don't think we've given him
an accurate idea

of the risks he's gonna take
to get back into the trial,

when, statistically speaking,
it may not even help him.

The thing about statistics, Dr. Pravesh,
is that people aren't numbers.

Our job is to illuminate pathways,
warn of pitfalls,

and follow where the patient leads.
Are you saying I haven't done that?

Of course not.

I just hope we're ready to follow
where he's leading, because…

I don't feel good about it.

[tense music plays]

Okay, Mr. Mendez, we need you to just
sign here and initial here. All right?

[speaking Spanish]

[in English] I need to scrub in.

-Mind taking this to the nurse in there?
-[Maya] Of course.

[speaking Spanish]

[somber music plays]

[Leela in English] If this goes long,
wait in observation.

No way. I'm not missing anything.

[Leela] This is a retractor.
You can help me adjust it.

[Austin] Mobilize the omentum with me.

Let's get a good look inside.

[tense music plays]

What is it?

[Leela sighs] All through here…

Diffuse peritoneal carcinomatosis.

-So…
-It's metastasized.

Everywhere.

He's terminal.

There's nothing you can do?

Unfortunately, not when the damage
is this extensive.

-It's beyond treatment.
-Let's close, please.

Would you like to practice closing?
You can work on your sutures.

Can't you remove some of the bowel,
clear out the tumors?

Help him live a little longer?

-Unfortunately, we're beyond that.
-[Leela] It happens sometimes.

We open someone up
and we see something we can't fix.

It's a peek and shriek.

"Peek and shriek"?

[voice breaking] He's someone's father.

I…

I told him he was going to go to sleep
and… and wake up better.

We have to do something!

How can you just give up? I…

[tearfully] I don't understand.

[door bangs open]

I am so sorry, Dr. Austin,
I will talk to her.

You need to apologize
to your intern, Dr. Devi, not to me.

Why?

You referred to this patient's
inoperable cancer as a "peek and shriek."

I mean, you should know to use
more discretion in front of a new intern.

Obviously I know it sounded bad--

I'm well aware why we use these phrases.

"Watering the cabbage patch."
"Circling the drain."

So we don't have to look this horror
in the face every day.

-Exactly.
-But she doesn't know that.

All she knows is her mentor sounded like
she didn't care about this man at all.

Now, help me close this fascia.

[somber music plays]

Hey, Maya.

Hey.

Look, I know it may have sounded
like I don't care about Mr. Mendez.

But sometimes, we disconnect
from our patients

when they can't hear us,

because when we have to talk
to them and their families,

it can get overwhelming.

I know it sounds terrible,

but it's just a way
of protecting yourself,

so you don't get compassion fatigue.

And then you won't have what you need
when you really need it.

Can I show you?

As we explained, the surgery
was partially exploratory.

And, unfortunately, the mass
blocking Enrique's lower intestine

turned out to be malignant.

You mean cancer?

[sighs] That's why you've been having
so much pain.

[speaking Spanish]

[in English] With this type of cancer,

it's likely it was already advanced
by the time he started having symptoms.

So what do we do?

Unfortunately, the cancer
has spread too much

for us to remove it surgically.

And what does that mean?

An oncologist will be here shortly
to discuss a number of regimens

that may be of some benefit, but,

as much as we hoped
this was something we could fix…

it's likely Enrique's time may be short.

[sobs] No.

[Leela] I'll give you two
some time to talk.

[both crying]

[speaking Spanish]

Thank you for including me.

I'm still learning, too.

[Kit] Rongeur, please.

[Billie] Another bone fragment.

His bones are so brittle.

[Kit] Unexpected for a man
in his early 50s.

Not for a man with advanced MS
under years of steroid treatment.

Suction.

[Billie] I'm having trouble
with a bone here.

-It's dangerously close to the cord.
-[Billie] I know.

-I've almost got it…
-[alarms sounding]

We've got a heart rate
in the 160s. Afib with RVR.

-[Kit] What's his pressure?
-Dropping. MAPS in the 50s.

[Kit] His heart is failing.

The steroids must have weakened his heart.

-[Kit] Bolus amiodarone. Now.
-150 milligrams IV amio going in.

-Not sure how long he'll tolerate this.
-We're working as quickly as we can.

If we stop, he doesn't walk again.

We got a heart rate in the 170s, team.

-Might have to shock.
-[Billie] Let's move.

It's a race against time.

We have to finish this surgery
before he codes.

[alarms continue sounding]

[muffled sobbing]

Padma?

[sobbing continues]

Padma? You okay?

[Padma] No.

[crying]

I can't feel them moving.

Okay. Okay, okay. We'll just get you
into the bed first.

-Let's get you into the bed.
-[sobbing]

Let's just…

take a listen, okay?

Okay.

[beeps]

[rhythmic whooshing]

There's a heartbeat.

Okay?

[Padma groans]

[rhythmic whooshing]

There's the other.

They're fine.

[sniffles, exhales]

Do you want me to get an ultrasound
so you can see them?

I was sure they were…

That's perfectly normal.

You just went through a major surgery.

[sighs]

It's not only that.

It's like… [sniffles]

…all these shadows are hiding
that I never saw before,

all these things that can go wrong and…

and destroy you

and there's nothing you can do
about any of it.

I think that's just called being a parent.

What am I doing?

I've thought more about Burning Man
than becoming a mother.

What if I'm terrible at it?

What if…

what if I'm not ready for this at all?

Well, the good news is,

you're not doing any of it alone.

Hey.

I'm right here.
For anything you need. Okay?

[sniffles]

Okay.

My sister seems like
such a fearless, free spirit.

And most of the time she is,

but just like everybody else,
she has a breaking point.

So all the essential oils and crystals
I was making fun of…

They're her way of coping.

She's terrified.

Of course she is.

All right, what does she need?

-Head injury?
-Discharged. Just a minor concussion.

How's Enrique?

Uh, stabilizing in the ICU.

-Tough news.
-[sighs] It's very tough.

Well, you should get to the polls.
That's one thing we can fix.

What?

It was good
being in the trenches with you.

You, too.

So…

should I bring by some Crispy Chuck's?

That sounds great.

[sighs]

How's he doing?

Stabilizing.

I should have accounted
for the steroid treatments.

It was hard to see clearly on this one.

MS is such a bastard.

You think you're on a plateau and then,

it just crumbles.

Things are developing all the time, Kit.

I know. Randolph's been doing better.

But it's always there,

like a sword hanging over our heads.

I think I'm handling it,

or at least… [sighs] …compartmentalizing.

But, apparently…

I'm scared.

For what it's worth, you do a really
good job of keeping that a secret.

I know.

There really is hope, you know?

[somber music plays]

[indistinct chatter]

-Just the person I was looking for.
-[Billie] Hey.

I just wanted to check in,
make sure you're okay.

I'm fine. Why?

The guy who lunged at you in the ER?

Oh. That feels like a lifetime ago.

I'm fine. You're the one who tackled him.

Turns out varenicline was making him nuts.

Huh. That's… oddly comforting?

-[chuckling] I know, right?
-[laughs]

And also, uh…

I don't know how to say this.

You were Nic's best friend,
so every time I see you,

it's like Nic's watching me
through you, or something.

-I don't know. I know it sounds weird.
-Seriously, you have to let that go.

It makes me second-guess everything. Like…

Would Nic approve of me with Cade?

Like I said, I just want you to be happy.

Whoever you're with.

So would Nic.

Okay. Thank you. I just…

I just had to get that off my chest.

You know everything I went through
with Nic better than anyone.

No worries. You're all good.

[chuckles]

[elevator bell dings]

Um, you know what?
I remembered I forgot something.

Okay.

-See you tomorrow.
-Yup.

You absolutely have to try it.

It was highly controversial

So he was your high school boyfriend?

-Mm.
-It's okay, you can be honest.

Did I miss Gigi?

Already in bed.

But,

you could see her at breakfast tomorrow.

That sounds nice.

-They call it?
-Not yet.

But the billionaire's ahead.

I just wanted to say,
I know that was a rough surgery.

-I hope I didn't--
-I put you in a very tight corner.

You handled it with skill and grace.

Not sure how much grace.

Do you wanna go get a drink?

I think I'd better try and figure out

how Chastain is going to survive
without a third of its budget.

We don't know if he's gonna win.
There's always hope.

[reporter] As we go to the gathering

where Mark Betz is preparing
to speak to his supporters.

Again, Mark Betz, billionaire businessman

and first-time candidate
for public office,

is the new governor of Georgia.

Boy, do I love Georgia!

[supporters cheering]

[mutes TV]

So much for hope.

Hey, come on.

We can't give up that easy.

You know what?

I think I do need that drink.

Attagirl.

I'll say one thing,

that little, untested
real estate developer

has no idea who he's dealing with.

Ooh, I like this Kit.

Maybe all you needed was a dragon to slay.

Do me a favor, no silver linings tonight.

Just black clouds,
idiot billionaires and friends.

-Don't forget the bourbon.
-[chuckles softly]

[soft music plays]

Hey.

Hey.

It's okay. Go back to sleep.

Mm-mm, nope.

Nope. I'm not gonna
let you run away this time.

[chuckles softly]

What's going on?

[Cade] It's nothing.

Just, something is up with my dad

and I thought I could put it
out of my mind, but…

And why would you wanna do that?

Back in Seattle,
he had this patient, Carmen.

She had Edwards syndrome.

So he operated on her
maybe six times over a few years.

She was an amazing kid.

Everyone loved her,
but my dad got really attached.

So when she died, he took it hard.

Started drinking too much, and then…

He started writing himself prescriptions.

[sighs]

Was he addicted?

He always claimed he had it under control.

And he never hurt anyone.

You know, just himself.

So he operated under the influence.

I don't know.

It's possible.

But then, he quit.

All on his own.

Cold turkey.

That was five years ago.

And ever since,
I've always been on the lookout

for any kind of sign.

[somber music plays]

What are you seeing?

Maybe it's nothing.

But,

the other day, I saw him take a pill.

I don't know what it was, I didn't ask.

And then today, he had this bruise
on his forehead, and…

He said it was nothing.
But he seemed jittery.

Well…

I don't pretend to know him like you do.

But…

if he is using while he's working, that's…

that's a problem.

To put it lightly.

I know.

Come here.
