00:05There's been some talk about a Nick of Time reboot.
00:07It's easy money.
00:09I'm done with that part of my life, you know?
00:11Do you think I'll still make it to our baby's delivery?
00:14I do.
00:14Oh my God, the baby's kicking.
00:16It's really happening, isn't it?
00:18We're gonna have a baby girl.
00:21What do you want?
00:22We just want to see...
00:24Secondary progressive MS.
00:26Parents stole a lot of money from me.
00:27Maybe it's just too much water under that bridge.
00:30What are you doing here?
00:32Still looking for company on that trip to Brandywine Falls?
00:35Are you guys ready?
00:39La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
00:4399 bottles of beer
00:45Sorry, stuck in my head.
00:48Here, take one down, you're passing around
00:5198 bottles of beer on the wall
00:55Oh, you know what you could say.
00:57Yeah, don't tell anybody.
01:01Sharon?
01:02Hey, Dave.
01:03Morning.
01:03Daniel, I wanted to go over the admission sheets for the psych floor
01:07and I also thought I'd be nice and grab you a coffee
01:10but it looks like you beat me to the punch.
01:12Don't you worry about it for a second.
01:14This one's finished.
01:15That's so nice of you.
01:16Long night?
01:17You know, I started to volunteer at a suicide hotline
01:21a few weeks ago
01:22and my shift ended at 2 a.m.
01:24But I'm fine.
01:25Hey, I'm actually having dinner with Howie tonight.
01:27Yeah?
01:28I'm in the candle at both ends.
01:29Those hotlines can be emotionally draining, yeah?
01:33Sure, but after that little scare with Anna last year
01:37I've just got this knot in my chest every now and then
01:41and being the guy on the other end of the line.
01:44I don't know.
01:45It kind of helps.
01:46Dr. Archer, got an EMS call that might require several sets of hands.
01:49Okay, let's go.
01:52Let me guess.
01:53Acupuncture?
01:54Yeah.
01:55Gail Spinner, 43.
01:56She was mid-session when she fell off the table and onto her back.
01:59How you doing, Gail?
01:59Have you ever been in pain in 500 goddamn places at the same time?
02:05Ready, on my count.
02:07Holy pincushion Batman.
02:09Let's be extra gentle here, please.
02:11Ready, one, two, three.
02:12Oh, I was on the table and I just, I had to spasm.
02:17I think the technician put a needle in the wrong spot or something
02:19and I just seized up and tilted over onto the floor
02:22and now I look like a damn porcupine.
02:25Let's get pickups and hemistats.
02:26Yeah, and also, uh, give me four milligrams of morphine, please.
02:30Okay, easy there, Tiger.
02:31I don't like taking pain meds.
02:32It's just this might be an arduous process.
02:34You may want something to manage the discomfort.
02:36Except it makes me constipated.
02:39Like, like bad.
02:40Like, like an old cement mixer.
02:43It's very graphic.
02:44You're fine.
02:45It's your call, but we can give you something to help with the constipation.
02:49Hmm.
02:50What do you say, Chuck?
02:52Should we let him fill me with painkillers?
02:56Read that for me, Speedy.
02:58Oh, you may rely on it.
03:00All right.
03:01Let's go.
03:02Load him in.
03:03All right, yeah, let's give her the morphine and 100 colase
03:06and you may want to loop Dr. Charles into this.
03:22Hey, thank you for meeting us out here in the cold.
03:25Okay, thank you.
03:25RV's a little big to get in by the ED.
03:27I live to serve.
03:29Easy, Dad.
03:29How we doing here, family?
03:31Well, we were on a weekend trip to Cuyahoga Valley.
03:35Which we should still be on.
03:35Dad took a little fall, twisted his ankle.
03:37Damn black ice.
03:39Figured with the MS and all, we should be safe.
03:41Come back early, get an x-ray.
03:42Not broken.
03:43I know what it feels like to break a bone.
03:45James, stop acting like a cowboy.
03:47Sit.
03:47To take a load off Mr. Frost.
03:49Yeah.
03:50Hell no.
03:51James.
03:51Dad.
03:52You all right?
03:55You know, I didn't really peg you as the outdoorsy type.
03:59I got layers.
04:01Huh.
04:01Out of curiosity, what type did you peg me as though?
04:04I don't know.
04:05Kind of like a guy who might be familiar with moisturizer.
04:09True.
04:11This is great.
04:13You can hardly feel anything now.
04:20I'll be back in a second.
04:22Hey, what's going on, Jeremy?
04:25Oh, we're not here for me this time.
04:27I'm supposed to be induced next week, but my water broke.
04:31Oh, that's exciting.
04:35Dr. Asher?
04:36Yep.
04:38Hey, you two, everything okay?
04:39Asmi was saying that her water broke this morning.
04:42I've been trying to reach my OB, but her office hasn't connected and I wasn't sure where to go, so...
04:49And we're used to coming here.
04:51Totally get it, and I am happy to get you sorted.
04:54Let's get you up to L&D and into a bed.
04:56And your OB is Dr. Rebecca Brown, right?
04:59Yeah.
04:59Work with her a little.
05:00She's great.
05:02Uh, one of my patients is looking a little rough, so I'm gonna have him checked out.
05:06You got this?
05:07Yeah, sure thing.
05:08Hope it goes okay upstairs.
05:09All right.
05:16Outlook not so good.
05:31Ah, that hurts a little.
05:33Sorry.
05:34What happened to the man who refused a wheelchair?
05:37It'll be just a second.
05:39You're doing great.
05:40I like you.
05:43X-ray up.
05:45Thanks, Mike.
05:47Okay.
05:48All right, we got a hairline fracture.
05:50You have a small break in your ankle and some swelling.
05:53You'll have a walk-in cast for a few weeks, but it should be fine.
05:57You know, if you like Sudoku, the Tribune has a word version called Word Monster that's so great.
06:01I play Word Monster every day.
06:04Hey, a beautiful doctor who likes puzzles.
06:06Are you single?
06:07Ah.
06:09I'm not, actually, but I'll go get that walk-in boot.
06:14What?
06:16Nice that you got them a room together.
06:19Well, he didn't want to leave his wife and given his state, staying in a wheelchair wasn't a long-term
06:24solution.
06:25How's he looking?
06:27Not good.
06:28His blood pressure's dropping, increased ascites, his stegibnic.
06:34The end's coming quickly.
06:37Have you told him how long he has?
06:39I didn't need to.
06:40He's putting on a brave face for his wife, but he knows.
06:46Hey, I'll come by after my rounds.
06:48Okay.
06:55So there are three things to consider with a job.
06:58Quality of life, salary, and passion for the work.
07:02That said, this is your first job, so you're probably not getting any of those.
07:06But that's okay, because you can go out and get drunk with your co-workers, talk smack about your boss.
07:11Jeremy!
07:12I'm kidding.
07:13I'm not kidding.
07:15But you're going to do great.
07:17Because you're amazing.
07:19And I love you.
07:22Let's get that back on you.
07:27So what the, what exactly was that?
07:30Uh, Jeremy's been recording videos the past couple months for their daughter to watch at different points in her life.
07:35This one was her first day of work at a real job, but I've also done first day of kindergarten,
07:42teaching her how to drive.
07:43That did not go well.
07:45I know I'm going to be missing all the milestones, but, uh, I figured I'd pass on a little fogly
07:52advice.
07:54What's that?
07:56That is the baby's heart rate monitor.
07:57Is something wrong?
07:58The heart rate's dipping, but that can happen, so I need you to turn onto your side, okay?
08:03Here we go.
08:05Okay, there we go.
08:06We just needed to change positions.
08:08She's okay now?
08:09Yeah, sometimes the heart rate drops when the umbilical cord gets compressed, so we'll keep an eye on it, but
08:13nothing to worry about just yet.
08:26Gail, I'm Dr. Charles.
08:27I was hoping that we could have a little chat.
08:28Is now a good time?
08:29Well, I've already missed Price is Right, so why the hell not?
08:32Want to buy a seat?
08:33Please.
08:38So, what is it that you would like to discuss with me?
08:42Well, I've got to be honest.
08:43My curiosity is thoroughly piqued by your magic eight ball.
08:47Chuck.
08:48Oh.
08:49There's a name.
08:50Yeah, it was the only thing I can trust, so I figured you deserved a name.
08:54Do you mind?
08:54Please.
08:56I used to love these things when I was a kid.
08:59So, Chuck helps you make all your decisions?
09:02Nope.
09:03Just the ones involving other people.
09:06Why's that?
09:07Well, they can't be trusted.
09:08Look, I know people think I'm out to lunch making these big decisions based on a child's toy.
09:14It's just that people don't see things the way they are.
09:20They weigh their options, do research, consult with their friends and family, and still, they
09:26almost exclusively make the wrong decision.
09:30With Chuck here, I leave it up to the universe.
09:34There's no lies.
09:36There's no misintentions.
09:38No stress.
09:40Just fate.
09:44I gotta say, you're making a, uh, pretty good case for Chuck.
09:49And yet, I mean, he did, I assume, help lead you to your acupuncture adventure?
09:56Yeah, but the crazy thing is, the only reason why I tried that in the first place is to fix
09:59my back.
10:00It's been so stiff lately.
10:01Yeah, it says in your chart that it was a back spasm that made you fall off the table.
10:06Can you tell me a little bit more about that?
10:07I mean, the spasm specifically?
10:09Uh, it's like if you're half asleep and you have a nightmare, but you jump in real life.
10:14Yeah.
10:15Okay.
10:18Does it mean something to you?
10:19Um, I don't know.
10:21It might.
10:23It might.
10:25Hey.
10:27So, I was just in with Gail Spinner, you know, and I'm looking over her chart.
10:32Stiffness, sudden onset of these myoclonic jerks.
10:35I think we might be looking at a neurological issue.
10:37So, I want to do a couple tests.
10:39Um, I don't know.
10:40FMRI, maybe, uh, maybe an evoked potential.
10:43Hmm.
10:43Is Chuck on board with that plan?
10:45Oh, silly me.
10:47Yeah.
10:50Reply hazy, ask again later.
10:52I'm sorry.
10:53I figured back to you on that one.
10:55Hey, Doris.
10:56Hmm?
10:56I realize that you still owe my dad's insurance card.
10:59Oh, yeah.
10:59Sorry, I'll grab it.
11:00Cool, thanks.
11:04So, a boyfriend, huh?
11:07Well, I wouldn't say that.
11:09What would you say?
11:10That I met a guy, we had a few dates, but so far, no red flags.
11:15Okay.
11:16All right.
11:17And just out of curiosity, what would a red flag look like to you?
11:21The usual, I guess.
11:23Anyone 510, pediatricians, former child stars.
11:28Smart.
11:30Is that your dad's room?
11:32Oh, my God.
11:34Help!
11:34Please!
11:35What happened?
11:36He was using the water used in the bathroom, and his arms just gave out, and he fell.
11:41Dad, hey, hey, you okay?
11:42My arms.
11:44They're numb.
11:45What?
11:45Both of them?
11:46Yeah.
11:46What's happening?
11:48I don't know.
11:48I don't think it's from MS.
11:50What?
11:52James.
11:53James!
12:01Spinal cord mass.
12:04So I don't have MS?
12:05No, but a mass like this can present in a nearly identical fashion.
12:10A lot of doctors will see the lesion, very common marker for MS, and they'll make that
12:13same diagnosis.
12:15Can't we just go in there and cut it out?
12:18Unfortunately, given the location, that's not possible.
12:21So there's nothing we can do?
12:23There's one other option, an immunotherapy drug, Hiboxin.
12:27It's had a lot of success in shrinking and even eliminating this kind of mass.
12:30Well, that sounds good.
12:32It is, but the drug is in the trial phase through the Mayo Clinic.
12:37What happens if we don't treat it?
12:38The mass will continue to grow and will most likely be fatal.
12:45How long?
12:46Less than six months.
12:50Hey, it's okay.
12:52All right, I'll talk to Ms. Goodwin.
12:54She knows everyone.
12:56I'll see if she can help get you into that trial, all right?
13:01Is this what they mean by active labor?
13:04It can help expedite the process, yes.
13:07Oh, gosh.
13:10What's wrong?
13:12Uh, Dr. Brown won't be here for a while.
13:15She's stuck in surgery.
13:17But hey, don't worry, okay?
13:19Until she gets here, I'm your girl.
13:21I'm not going anywhere.
13:23Mm-hmm.
13:25Hey, you know, I don't know that I have ever heard how you and Jeremy first met.
13:31I was a temp at his office for three days.
13:34Mm-hmm.
13:35My desk was next to the paper shredder, and he must have shred like 200 documents.
13:39I was convinced he was a white-collar criminal.
13:44But on my last day, he passed me a note asking me out.
13:48Aw, sweet.
13:50I said no.
13:51I wrote back I had a boyfriend.
13:53Wait, the infamous Derek Davenport?
13:57Good memory.
13:58Mm-hmm.
13:58So what did Jeremy do then?
14:02He wrote me another letter saying that's really going to get in the way of us dating.
14:08Bold.
14:10The crazy thing is, even after I broke up with Derek, I didn't go out with Jeremy for months.
14:16Why not?
14:17Because he said he knew he was going to marry me after 20 minutes, and I thought, how could anyone
14:23be so sure?
14:23Hmm.
14:25I get that.
14:28I shouldn't have doubted him.
14:31All that time we could have been together.
14:35I'd give anything to have that back.
14:48Hey.
14:49It's me.
14:50You don't have to put on a brave face.
14:54Is it that obvious?
14:55Is the morphine not working?
14:58I don't know.
14:59How long is it supposed to take to kick in?
15:02Not this long.
15:04Can we try giving him two milligrams Dilaudid?
15:06Mm-hmm.
15:09You know, I used to think I was so lucky.
15:14Esme, the baby.
15:16Things always just seem to work out for me.
15:22You know, I'm starting to get nervous that I might have used it all up.
15:27Well, let's see if the Dilaudid helps.
15:30Yeah.
15:33And now, Gail, I want you to imagine yourself.
15:36I imagine myself getting the hell out of this machine.
15:39Gail, you're doing great.
15:41We're almost there.
15:43Imagine yourself running, and feel your legs hitting the ground, pushing you forward.
15:50Okay.
15:52So.
15:53The overall pattern suggests corticobasal degeneration.
15:58What?
16:00Theo, there's no evidence of cortical atrophy.
16:04Not yet, but I see decreased activation in the parietal lobe and the motor cortex.
16:09Minimal, maybe.
16:11Theo, that's a death sentence.
16:13You know that, right?
16:14So, like, what are you seeing?
16:17What are you looking at that I'm not?
16:19I mean, how do you know?
16:21Because I've created a profile on how this disease presents in early stages,
16:25using thousands of images and tests from other patients.
16:31And that's what it looks like.
16:35So that's it for me then, huh?
16:37I know it's really hard to hear, and, um, I'm just so sorry.
16:44How does this, how does this happen?
16:46How does it work, this whole basal cell thing?
16:48Well, it causes shrinking and atrophy in portions of the brain over time.
16:52But right now, it's only affecting the motor pathways,
16:56which is why you have muscle spasms and weakness.
16:58But the positive piece is that because of the cutting-edge work that Dr. Urabari does here at Gaffney,
17:04we caught this much sooner than we normally would have,
17:07so we can immediately start treatments that will hopefully slow the progression of the disease.
17:12Slow, not stop, not cure?
17:17Unfortunately not.
17:18Why is that?
17:19Why is there no cure?
17:22Well, complicated question, but fundamentally it's because it's still exceedingly rare.
17:27And though doctors, including myself, are working on a cure,
17:31and eventually we will find one,
17:33the funding just isn't in place for it to happen anytime soon.
17:37Not fast enough to help me.
17:40Right.
17:42What if I were to chip in?
17:45I'm sorry, I don't know what you mean.
17:47What I'm saying is if I were to give you money, can you find the cure?
17:50That's incredibly generous of you,
17:52but unfortunately the funding required for this kind of research is just,
17:56it's really quite substantial.
17:59Well, I can give you $150 million.
18:01Would that work?
18:11$150 million.
18:13Turns out she has it.
18:14She won the Mighty Millions jackpot four years ago.
18:20So you're telling me the woman who uses a magic eight ball
18:23to make decisions is worth a quarter of a billion?
18:27Minus taxes.
18:28Apparently people just started coming out of the woodwork,
18:31trying to get a piece for winnings,
18:33lying to her, trying to manipulate her,
18:35and she says that that's when she stopped trusting people
18:38and started using the eight ball.
18:40Yeah, I can imagine.
18:42And she's willing to just give us her entire fortune?
18:47Only if we can guarantee a cure.
18:50And there is a cure.
18:51Based on what evidence?
18:53The success that we're having targeting tau proteins
18:55with monoclonal antibodies,
18:56combined with the work that I'm spearheading
18:58on biomarker development,
19:00both have shown significant success in treating similar diseases.
19:04Formidable points, right?
19:05But anybody with advanced CBD
19:07just rarely has more than five years to live, right?
19:11So I can't imagine any amount of money
19:13generating a cure in that time frame.
19:15I can do it.
19:17Theo, I know you believe that, which is great,
19:19but you don't know it, right?
19:21You don't know it for sure.
19:22Actually, I do.
19:23Look at what they did with Huntington's.
19:26Ms. Goodwin, I'm not someone who over-promises,
19:30but I am telling you
19:32that I can find a cure in five years.
19:33Look, I respect your confidence,
19:36but I have found anyone guaranteeing something in medicine
19:40usually isn't being completely honest,
19:42either with the patient or themselves.
19:46Okay.
19:47Even if I can't find a cure in five years,
19:49which I can,
19:50it would be morally reprehensible
19:52to pass on this money.
19:54How does that work?
19:56Because there are other patients
19:58outside of Gail to consider.
20:00I understand your argument,
20:02and it's not without merit,
20:05but we need to be straight with Ms. Benner
20:09and let the chips fall where they may.
20:18Can't you give him something for the pain?
20:20We gave him two milligrams of Dilaudid,
20:22but with his decreased kidney function,
20:24anything more, he might stop breathing.
20:26And even if you don't, it'll sedate you.
20:29You'll be unconscious.
20:30Well, if you knock me out,
20:32could you wake me up again?
20:36Probably not.
20:39It's okay.
20:41It's okay.
20:42No more meds.
20:44I can handle it.
20:45Can we do a C-section?
20:48I'll speak with Dr. Asher.
20:51Can I have a word?
20:52Yeah.
20:56All right, look, uh...
21:00You know, I know what we said in there,
21:01but maybe there's something
21:02we can give Jeremy that would help.
21:04Like what?
21:05I could dose a Vepi every ten minutes
21:08just to get him through a little longer.
21:09Are you insane?
21:10You'd be coding him before he's dead.
21:13Look, I followed you down the rabbit hole
21:15with the cytoreduction surgery,
21:16but this is too far.
21:17Yeah, but we can't have come this whole way
21:19only to watch him die minutes
21:20before my daughter is born.
21:24Your daughter?
21:27His daughter.
21:28His daughter.
21:31I know that this is a brutal situation.
21:34I do.
21:35But at some point,
21:36we have to let nature take its course.
21:47What would you do if you won the lottery?
21:49Easy.
21:50Mississippi riverboat,
21:51seeless celebrity boyfriend.
21:52Never-ending pasta pass at Olive Garden.
21:54Oh, yum.
21:56It's annoying, though,
21:57everyone's suddenly being so nice to that woman.
21:59It's not like she's gonna give someone
22:00a pile of money for bringing her ice chips.
22:02Oh, I don't know.
22:04See this watch?
22:05Yeah.
22:06Attack the leap.
22:08Last year, a rich lady came in here,
22:10and she gave it to me,
22:11and I didn't even have to bring her ice chips.
22:14Okay, good.
22:15I'll be right back.
22:16Mm-hmm.
22:19Dr. Frost.
22:20Hey.
22:21I made some calls about the drug trial
22:23for your father.
22:24Great.
22:25Any luck?
22:25Uh, unfortunately not.
22:28You couldn't convince him to make any space?
22:30Well, we didn't actually make it that far.
22:33What do you mean?
22:35The study requires that participating patients
22:38be diagnosed within the last 30 days.
22:41Okay.
22:42Well, my dad literally got diagnosed today, so...
22:44Actually, he did it.
22:46I requested his medical records
22:49so I'd have them ready to send over.
22:53Here.
22:54See for yourself.
23:06You went to a doctor last year
23:08that told you the same exact thing that we did.
23:11You've known about the mass on your spinal cord
23:14for four months.
23:18So, what was that?
23:20When Dr. Abrams was standing here
23:23explaining it all to you,
23:24was that just an act?
23:26No.
23:27We didn't know for sure.
23:30God, did you know about the clinical trial too?
23:35Was all of this a play
23:37so that I would help you get into it?
23:39Don't lie to me.
23:39Don't lie to me!
23:40No.
23:42My doctor said it might not be MS,
23:46but also said I should go see a specialist.
23:50It wasn't fully clear.
23:52So, you're admitting that you lied?
23:53That's not what I'm saying.
23:54Then what the hell are you saying, Dad?
23:59I was lying to myself.
24:04I got scared
24:07about the possibility
24:10of a terminal diagnosis.
24:16And it's what made him come here
24:18to reconnect with you.
24:27What am I supposed to believe?
24:34This is so expected
24:35from the both of you, honestly.
24:39You know, the only surprising part
24:41is that I fell for it again.
24:45You got me?
25:02Okay, they'll call once they get Esme
25:05set up in the O.R.
25:07Hey.
25:09Don't look so serious.
25:10I'm having a baby today.
25:15So, uh, how many of those videos
25:18have you done?
25:19A few dozen, maybe.
25:21Oh.
25:22I like the idea that she's gonna
25:24keep making new memories with me.
25:28I do wish I could really be there
25:30for just one of them, though, you know?
25:33Steal it from the future somehow.
25:36Yeah.
25:39Although, you know,
25:41maybe you could.
25:43What do you mean?
25:47Oh.
25:51Hey.
25:52There she is.
25:55Hi.
25:56Didn't realize this place
25:57had turned on service.
25:59Oh.
26:00I'll check back again soon.
26:02Yeah, yeah, I'm gonna need you to not.
26:03Okay.
26:04Thank you, though.
26:05So, you guys gonna take my money
26:08and cure this thing, or what?
26:09If you would like to make a donation,
26:11we will put every single penny
26:13into finding a cure for CBD.
26:16We will create a multi-team,
26:20multi-front assault,
26:21a global consortium of experts
26:24with neurologists, immunologists, geneticists,
26:27that will allow for dozens
26:28of simultaneous clinical trials for new drugs.
26:31We will move at warp speed.
26:33And find a cure.
26:35Eventually, yes.
26:36We will find a cure.
26:38I know that.
26:39But fast enough to save me, right?
26:43Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that.
26:47What?
26:47You can't?
26:48Look,
26:50if anybody's gonna do it,
26:51it's gonna be Dr. Abari and his team.
26:53And as far as research timelines go,
26:55they are close.
26:56But are they close enough to help you?
26:58We just can't in good conscience promise you that.
27:01I still urge you to consider this donation.
27:05You will save thousands of lives in the future
27:07and create a legacy for yourself.
27:09Okay.
27:10I get it.
27:13Look,
27:14you've got a lot to think about.
27:16So, um,
27:17so why don't we give you a little time?
27:18You know that's not how it works.
27:23Even though I appreciate your honesty,
27:26I'm gonna have to
27:28lean on Chuck here.
27:30I'm sorry.
27:31You're gonna,
27:32you're gonna let a eight ball
27:33decide if you give us $150 million?
27:36Of course.
27:37I can't chicken out now
27:39just because there's a few more zeros involved.
27:43All right, Chuck,
27:44this is a biggie.
27:46Do I give all my money
27:48to these men right here?
28:04You're really staring down
28:05that cup of coffee.
28:08Just trying to figure out
28:09the right thing to do.
28:11I heard things got a little complicated.
28:15How you feeling?
28:16Yeah.
28:17I'd say
28:18my overriding emotion
28:20is
28:20confusion.
28:24Why is that?
28:28When I
28:29found out
28:30that my dad
28:31knew this was an MS,
28:33I was sure
28:35it was some kind of play
28:36to manipulate me.
28:37And I got
28:38so angry.
28:41And now?
28:43I don't even know.
28:46I mean, they've
28:49they've
28:49really
28:50hurt me
28:51over the years,
28:53but
28:53they're not criminal masterminds.
28:56So
28:57maybe he was
28:58just in denial.
28:59Maybe
28:59he is
29:01wanting to reconnect.
29:02It seems like
29:03you have a little.
29:06Yeah.
29:08Yeah.
29:09In the past week,
29:11it's
29:12been nice.
29:15But, um,
29:18if he doesn't get into
29:19that drug trial,
29:21the only way
29:22that he can get the medicine
29:23he needs
29:23is to get it off-label,
29:25which means
29:27insurance won't cover it.
29:28It'll be expensive.
29:3030 grand a month.
29:36So, yeah.
29:38Um,
29:39now
29:39I have to
29:41decide if I want to be back
29:42in the same position
29:43I was 15 years ago,
29:45taking care of them
29:46financially.
29:48I'm sorry,
29:49but why
29:49exactly?
29:50They're adults.
29:51Why does it have to flow to you?
29:53Oh,
29:53because they're in debt.
29:55because they make
29:56bad choices,
29:57because, uh,
30:00it just always does.
30:04You're a really good person.
30:06You know that?
30:08Yeah,
30:08it doesn't always feel that way.
30:11That's how you know it's true.
30:16So,
30:16what do you think
30:17I should do?
30:21I'm not sure
30:22how I could
30:23really answer that.
30:24I mean,
30:25you just have to decide.
30:27Do you believe
30:28in second chances?
30:32How are you feeling?
30:34Uh,
30:34honestly,
30:35pretty
30:36exposed.
30:37She's doing great,
30:38Jeremy.
30:39Okay,
30:39just finish the bladder flop.
30:41Bladder of blade,
30:42please.
30:44Since you're getting close.
30:46Can you feel anything?
30:48Not yet.
30:49Getting ready to start
30:50the transverse uterine incision,
30:52get the suction ready.
30:55Okay,
30:56Esme,
30:56you're going to feel
30:57a little pressure now.
31:04Can you cook cords too tight?
31:06Can't deliver through.
31:07Wait,
31:07what does that mean?
31:08It means we need to cut the cord now.
31:10Clamp?
31:10Clamp.
31:11And scissor.
31:16Here we go.
31:18She's out.
31:19Why can't I hear anything?
31:21What's happening?
31:22Is she okay?
31:24Mouth and nose clear?
31:26Still no respiration
31:27and tone looks poor.
31:28Transfer,
31:28start PPV.
31:29Okay.
31:30What's happening?
31:31She needs more stimulation.
31:33I'm sure they're doing
31:34everything they can.
31:35Can somebody please
31:36tell me what's going on?
31:37Still unresponsive.
31:39Bagger,
31:39we need an airway.
31:40It's a tube now.
31:41I got it.
31:41Esme?
31:42Hello?
31:44Esme?
31:44Hello?
31:46Hello?
31:57Excuse me.
31:58Get out of the way, please.
32:02Baby's fine.
32:03Baby's fine.
32:04She started breathing.
32:04Mom's fine.
32:05We're okay.
32:06Yeah?
32:07Okay.
32:08You okay?
32:09Yeah,
32:10just winded from running is all.
32:11No,
32:12no,
32:12I mean emotionally.
32:15I heard your convo with Kingston.
32:19Yeah,
32:19I should get back to Jeremy.
32:21Let him know the good news,
32:21yeah?
32:22Of course.
32:27I woke up today
32:28without $150 million,
32:29and I'll be going to sleep
32:31without $150 million.
32:33So,
32:34nothing changed.
32:36then why does it feel like
32:37I just got sucker-bunched?
32:39Hey,
32:39Sam,
32:40what would you do
32:40if you won the lottery?
32:41Oh,
32:42I have no interest
32:42in winning the lottery.
32:44No interest.
32:45If wealth makes you more entitled,
32:47can you imagine me
32:48with $150 million?
32:53Hey,
32:53there's Howie.
32:57You're going to grab my stuff,
32:59and then we're out of here.
33:00All good.
33:01I actually wanted to see you
33:03because I have some news.
33:05Oh, yeah?
33:05Everything okay?
33:06No.
33:07Yeah,
33:08I just,
33:08just,
33:09I have decided
33:11to step away
33:12from my teaching position
33:13at Porter University.
33:15Wow.
33:16Buddy,
33:17are you sure
33:17that this is the right time
33:18to do that?
33:19Since Susie died,
33:21it's just,
33:22I,
33:23my head is just
33:24not quite in it.
33:25My heart, either.
33:27Okay.
33:28Well,
33:29you got to do
33:29what's right for you.
33:30I mean,
33:31they must be
33:31devastated over there,
33:33though, right?
33:34No,
33:34they're okay,
33:35actually,
33:35because I already found
33:37the best possible replacement.
33:39Oh,
33:39well,
33:39that's good.
33:40Anybody I know?
33:41Well,
33:42Danny,
33:43can anyone really
33:44know themselves?
33:46Me?
33:47Yes.
33:47Howie.
33:48No, no.
33:49The med students
33:50you had here
33:50are still raving.
33:51You clearly have
33:52a knack for mentoring,
33:53and you keep talking
33:54about what comes next,
33:56finding something new.
33:57Look,
33:58I am deeply flattered.
34:00Okay,
34:01but I can't just,
34:01like,
34:02bug out of here,
34:03you know,
34:03drop everything
34:04and take off.
34:05I can't do that.
34:05Why not?
34:06You have already
34:07given them
34:07more than half your life,
34:09and the ED
34:10is a young man's game.
34:11You must have
34:11some kind of
34:13protege
34:13who's ready
34:14to take the reins.
34:15Um,
34:17I don't know about that.
34:19All right,
34:19look,
34:20don't answer right away.
34:21Just promise me
34:22you'll think about it,
34:23okay?
34:24Okay,
34:25I promise.
34:26Now let's go.
34:27Good.
34:28Because I already
34:29gave your name
34:29to the provost,
34:30and I told him
34:31you were very interested.
34:44Frosty Bear.
34:45Hey,
34:45what's up,
34:46man?
34:46How you doing?
34:47Oh,
34:47you know,
34:48just chilling.
34:50Listen,
34:50I was thinking
34:52a little bit more
34:52about what we talked
34:53about last time
34:53you were here.
34:55The, uh,
34:56the Nick of Time reboot.
34:59Oh, yeah?
35:00Yeah,
35:01uh,
35:02you think the offer's
35:03still on the table?
35:04I imagine it is.
35:05They were pretty excited
35:07about the idea.
35:08And, uh,
35:09you said they
35:10sounded pretty motivated,
35:11right,
35:11to have me on it?
35:12Definitely.
35:13I told you,
35:14without you,
35:14it was a no-go.
35:16Okay.
35:17Um,
35:19tell him I'm in.
35:20Oh,
35:21hell yeah!
35:22Let's go,
35:23baby!
35:31Hey.
35:33Who's that there?
35:35This is your daughter,
35:37Daisy.
35:39Oh.
35:41Shh.
35:42Shh.
35:43Shh.
35:44Ready?
35:46Hi.
35:48Hi.
35:49Hi.
35:52Hi, Daisy.
35:53I'm your dad.
35:56Oh.
35:58She's so tiny.
36:00Oh.
36:01You did it.
36:02You did it, man.
36:03Hi.
36:05Huh?
36:07Oh.
36:09Awful.
36:12Awful.
36:13Okay.
36:14Do you mind grabbing my phone?
36:16I just wanted to record
36:16one more thing.
36:17Yeah, of course.
36:18Here.
36:19Let me do it for you,
36:20okay?
36:20Okay.
36:21Hi.
36:23All right, recording.
36:25Need you play it now.
36:30You know,
36:31I spent all this time
36:33making these videos
36:34for the moments
36:35I'm gonna miss.
36:37But
36:39Dr. Archer
36:39had an idea
36:40that maybe
36:41there was a way
36:42I could steal one
36:43from the future.
36:45The one we could
36:45experience together.
36:48So,
36:49this last one,
36:51yeah,
36:52this last one,
36:53I want you to play for her
36:55on her wedding day.
36:58It's our father-daughter dance.
37:01Baby.
37:02Now I know
37:04all the wrong
37:06daisy.
37:09You're getting married today.
37:12And I'm so sorry
37:13that I can't be there
37:15to walk you down the aisle
37:17and
37:18tell you how stunning you look.
37:21But I-I want you to know
37:23that
37:23more than anything,
37:25I hope you found
37:27someone wonderful
37:29to spend your singular
37:30magical life with.
37:33Someone who goes
37:34all out on the holidays
37:35and
37:36leaves you love notes
37:38around the house
37:39and
37:41shares your passion
37:42for
37:42beef jerky
37:44on road trips.
37:48Someone who's thoughtful
37:49about who they let in
37:51and-and-and who they love.
37:54Because once they love you,
37:57they're in for good.
38:00All the way.
38:03Forever.
38:07Forever.
38:10Yeah.
38:13I hope you found that.
38:16I am
38:18the luckiest
38:31how's Jeremy?
38:38Jeremy is sleeping.
38:40Oh.
38:42Dr. Kingston finally
38:43up to his meds.
38:51That was, um...
38:54That was a really
38:55lovely idea.
38:56The, um...
38:58The father-daughter dance.
39:00Oh, yeah.
39:00Well.
39:02Huh.
39:04And after they told me
39:05you were pregnant,
39:06I started doing the math.
39:08I'm gonna be 65
39:09when she's born.
39:11I'm gonna be 83
39:13when she graduates
39:14high school.
39:15And I can't imagine
39:17I'm gonna be walking
39:17our daughter
39:18down the aisle, either.
39:20You don't know that,
39:21do you?
39:21Mm.
39:22It's okay.
39:24It's okay.
39:25I-I was upset.
39:30But today,
39:33I realized
39:34it's not about
39:34what I'm gonna miss.
39:38Because I'm gonna get
39:39to raise
39:40a daughter
39:41with you.
39:46How unlikely.
39:49How miraculous
39:50is that?
39:52Oh.
39:54It's pretty miraculous.
40:00I'm glad it makes you
40:01wonder, though.
40:02What's that?
40:04Just...
40:05You know,
40:05all these moments
40:06in life are a gift.
40:08What do you do
40:09with them?
40:11I don't know.
40:12I guess...
40:15you don't waste them.
40:23Dean?
40:25You ready to go?
40:26Yeah, I'll be right there.
40:31Nice work today.
40:32You too.
