00:05After that little scare with Anna,
00:08I just got this knot in my chest every now and then.
00:11I have decided to step away from teaching
00:14because I already found the best possible replacement.
00:17Me?
00:17You must have some kind of protege
00:19who's ready to take the reins.
00:20What happened?
00:21I'm thinking about retiring.
00:23I haven't had a panic attack since medical school.
00:27I'm in the candle at both ends.
00:28If I started to volunteer at the suicide hotline,
00:31being the guy on the other end of the line,
00:33I don't know, it kind of helps.
01:19Greater Chicago Lifeline.
01:21This is Dan.
01:22What's going on tonight?
01:28Hello?
01:31Are you there?
01:32Did I lose you?
01:38I'm here.
01:39Oh, there you are.
01:41Tell me what's happening.
01:44I want to die.
01:48Thank you for your honesty.
01:51I also appreciate you saying that out loud
01:55because that's not easy to do.
01:58It's all I can think about.
02:00My brain just keeps, I don't know, running in circles.
02:05It always comes back to that.
02:07I can't eat.
02:08I can't sleep.
02:11Not sleeping absolutely sucks.
02:14Do you mind if I ask your name?
02:16Or at least, you know, what you'd like me to call you?
02:22It's Gio.
02:23Gio.
02:25Okay, Gio.
02:27It was an accident.
02:29It was my fault.
02:31What was?
02:32What was your fault?
02:36I killed my girlfriend.
02:40Okay.
02:42I think it might help to, um, tell me what happened?
02:47Why?
02:48Why?
02:48How would that help?
02:50Well, you know, you said that it was your fault
02:53and that it was an accident,
02:54which is interesting because, you know,
02:56I mean, accidents are, well, I mean, they're accidents, right?
02:59I mean, they're not on purpose.
03:03We went to a holiday party.
03:05By the end of the night, she was pretty hammered,
03:07but I only had a few beers, so I drove us home.
03:13She started feeling sick, so I was driving pretty fast.
03:18I didn't want her to puke in the car, you know what I mean?
03:20Oh, I sure do.
03:20That's the worst.
03:22Yeah.
03:25We were coming up on a big intersection
03:28when the light turned yellow, so I gunned it.
03:34And out of nowhere,
03:37a woman stepped into the crosswalk early.
03:40I slammed on my brakes.
03:42I tried to see around her, but
03:45the car spun out of control
03:47and slammed into a traffic pole
03:50on the passenger side.
03:57when I looked over at her.
04:00Her eyes were open, but she was gone.
04:07Man, I'm just so sorry, Gio.
04:09That sounds awful.
04:11I mean, awful.
04:13It's like a tape loop in my brain.
04:15It hurts so much, and it never, ever stops.
04:18I need to make it stop.
04:21Okay.
04:21You know, there is a big difference, though, right,
04:23between being involved in an accident
04:27and intentionally causing someone's death, right?
04:31And I want you to trust me on this.
04:33Like, grief and guilt are really, really good
04:36at blurring the difference.
04:38It was my job to get her hope safe.
04:41You want to know what the cruelest thing is
04:43about accidents that happen really quickly?
04:45It's that after the fact, we slow them way down,
04:49and then we start to play them
04:51over and over again in our head,
04:54which creates the illusion
04:56that we might have done something differently, right?
04:58That we could have somehow created a different outcome,
05:01when the truth is that that was just never,
05:03ever going to happen.
05:09Look, you're clearly a nice guy,
05:11but none of this stuff is going to bring her back.
05:15No, it's not.
05:16And I can't even imagine
05:18how difficult it must be to accept that.
05:22Gio, can I ask you,
05:23do you have anything with you
05:23that you might use to hurt yourself tonight?
05:29A gun.
05:31Got it.
05:32And, uh, where is the gun right now?
05:37My head.
05:38Okay.
05:40Look, I'm going to ask you
05:41to do something for me, all right?
05:42And that is, I just want you to put it somewhere,
05:44just for now,
05:46put it somewhere where you can't see it.
05:52You still there, buddy?
06:00Sometimes it can actually
06:03help to talk about people
06:05that we've lost, right?
06:06You think that might help
06:07to talk about her a bit?
06:08I mean, there is no wrong answer
06:10to this question.
06:11I'm-I'm just asking.
06:15Her name was Darby.
06:20She's gone.
06:22Forever.
06:25You know what?
06:26This-this mistake.
06:28What is?
06:30What-
06:31Gio, look.
06:32It's so important
06:33that you feel this stuff.
06:35Lucky.
06:35It is.
06:36You can't possibly understand.
06:38It's torture.
06:39Buddy, listen.
06:40I can't do it anymore.
06:41No, no.
06:42You-you look-
06:42No, no.
06:44I'm sorry.
06:44Gio, listen.
06:45Loss like this
06:46brings a kind of pain
06:47that-that can't be solved
06:48or explained away.
06:50You just gotta talk about it.
06:51You just gotta feel it, right?
06:52But just because you're feeling it
06:54doesn't mean you have to act on it.
06:55Feeling guilty
06:56doesn't mean you don't deserve-
06:59Gio.
07:00Gio.
07:23I don't know.
07:24Running in circles
07:25and it always comes back to that.
07:27I can't eat.
07:28I can't sleep.
07:49Hi.
07:50Hi, honey.
07:51How you doing?
07:52Good.
07:53Good.
07:55Oh.
08:02Is everything okay, Dad?
08:03Yeah.
08:04Great.
08:05You're early.
08:07Yeah, the traffic from Evanston
08:08was super light.
08:09Okay.
08:10I want you to be honest with me.
08:11What do you miss more?
08:12Me?
08:13Or my state-of-the-art laundry facility?
08:17It's a dead heat.
08:18Oh, man.
08:18You are so adorable
08:19when you lie.
08:21I lie because I love, Dad.
08:22You know what?
08:23I'm gonna make some eggs.
08:25Sugar only gets you so far.
08:26Ugh, but they're magically delicious.
08:31Oh, whoops.
08:32Oh, sorry about that.
08:34Oh, no.
08:34Don't touch anything.
08:35Oh.
08:39Boxers.
08:41Uh, those are mine.
08:43You wearing men's boxers now?
08:46Uh, it's a thing now.
08:48Okay.
08:52What?
08:53Honey, nothing.
08:54It's none of my business, okay?
08:57Come on, Dad.
08:58I'm asking you to tell me
08:58what you were gonna say.
08:59I'm just wondering
09:00if having a boyfriend
09:01is just the best idea right now.
09:03That's all.
09:03I cannot believe you just said that to me.
09:04Honey, you told me
09:05that that's what Dr. Drake told you.
09:07Okay.
09:07Note to self,
09:08don't tell Dad a goddamn thing
09:09about anything ever again.
09:10Sweetie, I'm sorry.
09:11Really, I'm sorry.
09:12Dad, I don't have a boyfriend.
09:15Aren't you worried
09:15that a new relationship,
09:17I mean, even a sexual relationship
09:18would be...
09:18Okay, Dad.
09:19Good point.
09:20Fine.
09:21I like to get laid.
09:23Oh, man.
09:23I need to get laid.
09:24No, no, honey, sweetie.
09:25It's like the best antidepressant
09:27that I have found so far.
09:28Honey, come on.
09:29Dad, this doesn't have
09:30anything to do with me.
09:31This is about you.
09:32Whenever you start fixating
09:33on my life,
09:34it means something's going on with you.
09:36It's called projecting.
09:37Yeah, I'm familiar with the concept.
09:39How about deflection?
09:40You ever heard of that one?
09:42Okay, how about this?
09:44You go to work,
09:45I'll wash my clothes,
09:46and we'll pretend
09:46this conversation never took place.
09:48Okay?
09:52So, could your supervisor
09:54trace the call
09:55using his phone number?
09:56Only emergency services
09:57is allowed to do that.
09:59And get this.
10:00Once we make that move, right,
10:02once we escalate it,
10:03that's it.
10:04No follow-up allowed whatsoever.
10:06It's a legal thing, right?
10:07We are not allowed to find out
10:09what happened
10:09in one way or the other.
10:10Damn, that's brutal.
10:12Tell me about it.
10:12Yeah, but look,
10:13you did everything you can,
10:15and you don't know what happened,
10:17and maybe that's a good thing.
10:18You also know
10:19what you signed up for, right?
10:21Of course I do.
10:22So, come on, Daniel.
10:23You can't save everybody.
10:27Why not?
10:33Oh, hey.
10:34Do you have a moment?
10:36I do.
10:37Uh, talk later?
10:38Maybe a little cocktail
10:39after work?
10:40Yes, please.
10:41All right.
10:42I have a patient
10:43that just came in.
10:44Travis Abbott
10:45says he fell
10:45and hit his head,
10:47but he's been
10:47knocked around pretty bad.
10:49Uh, there was blood
10:50and perineal lacerations
10:51near his rectum,
10:52and his tox screen
10:53came back positive
10:54for GHB.
10:55Oh, okay.
10:56You're thinking sexual assault?
10:57Yeah, but he won't go there.
10:59Lead the way.
11:02I don't know
11:02what the big deal is.
11:03All right?
11:04I had too much to drink.
11:05I tripped
11:06and smashed my head
11:06in the bathroom.
11:07I just came here
11:08to make sure
11:08I didn't have a concussion,
11:09and Dr. Ripley said I don't,
11:10so can I please go home now?
11:13Here's the thing.
11:14We do need to inform you
11:15that we are legally obligated
11:17to reach out
11:17to law enforcement
11:18and provide you
11:19access to counseling
11:20when we're confronted
11:21with evidence.
11:22I wasn't raped.
11:24I'm fine.
11:26Okay.
11:30You know, um,
11:31my dad,
11:32he wasn't around long,
11:34but, uh,
11:34he did teach me
11:36to handle pain
11:36with silence,
11:37because that's
11:38what real men do, right?
11:40Someone kicks your ass,
11:41you suck it up.
11:42Someone makes you cry,
11:44you suck it up.
11:46But that crap
11:49eats you up inside.
11:51Trust me.
11:52It's not worth it.
11:54You gotta learn
11:55to ask for help.
12:03Oh, that was super moving,
12:05but none of it applies to me.
12:09Got it.
12:10I really just have
12:11one more question.
12:12Screw you.
12:15Hey, go fuss over
12:17somebody else.
12:18Who do y'all think
12:19you are?
12:19My mama?
12:30You creeping on your
12:31daughter's Facebook page,
12:32Dr. Charles?
12:33I'm not creeping on anything.
12:35It's my daughter.
12:36And it's a public platform
12:38I last checked.
12:39How about you
12:39mind your own business?
12:41Sorry.
12:44But just for the record,
12:46she moved to Instagram
12:46a few years back.
12:49What do you mean?
12:50How do you know that?
12:51Well, because I follow her,
12:53and you don't.
12:57Well, if you must know,
12:59I think she might
13:00have a new boyfriend,
13:01and I'm just worried
13:01he's a little sketchy.
13:03Anna has a new boyfriend?
13:06What, she's got
13:06a new new boyfriend?
13:08How many boyfriends
13:08does she have?
13:09Dr. Charles?
13:10You available for a consult?
13:13Yeah.
13:14Okay.
13:1532-year-old Sage Ellison,
13:18she claims she's
13:19in searing abdominal pain
13:20and is demanding
13:21I perform exploratory surgery,
13:23and she put him
13:25in a real show, too.
13:26I ran every test
13:27under the sun,
13:28and I didn't find anything.
13:29So what you're saying
13:30is you think we might have
13:31a big-time hypochondriac
13:33in there?
13:33Definitely.
13:38So could you give me
13:39just a rough idea
13:41of when you first
13:41became aware
13:42of the pain?
13:44About two years ago.
13:46Okay.
13:47And always
13:48pretty much been
13:49concentrated
13:50in your digestive system?
13:52Yeah.
13:53It always starts off
13:54as minor,
13:54but inevitably
13:55it always gets a lot worse.
13:57I keep losing weight
13:58because eating is torture.
14:00I mean,
14:02it sucks.
14:03Sounds like it.
14:04Anything,
14:05I don't know,
14:07stressful going on
14:08in your life
14:08at the time?
14:11There it is.
14:12What?
14:14Skepticism.
14:15You're a psychiatrist,
14:16so you think
14:17I'm either drug-seeking
14:18or it's all in my head.
14:20The only thing
14:20I was thinking
14:21is that you didn't
14:21answer my question.
14:23Ooh.
14:26Are you okay?
14:27Sage?
14:29Do you really care?
14:31Well,
14:31actually I do.
14:33No.
14:35Nothing emotionally
14:36stressful happened
14:37in my life
14:38that triggered me.
14:42But I get it.
14:44I'm a woman.
14:45I'm used to men
14:46discounting
14:47my physical pain.
14:49All right.
14:50I hear that.
14:52But what I was
14:54about to say
14:54was people
14:55tend to start
14:56making moral judgments,
14:57you know,
14:58when we can't
14:59identify
15:00traditional sources
15:01of pain.
15:01And as far as I'm
15:02concerned,
15:02you know,
15:03like pain,
15:04it's pain.
15:06Do you know
15:06how many stories
15:07I've heard
15:08of doctors
15:08discounting
15:09a woman's pain
15:10only to later
15:10discover that
15:11she had cancer?
15:12And that by then
15:14it was terminal
15:15because too much
15:15time had been wasted.
15:17Are you worried
15:18that this could be cancer?
15:19That's my point.
15:20I don't know.
15:23But my stomach
15:24feels like
15:24it's being ripped apart
15:25by a chainsaw
15:26and nobody
15:27seems to care.
15:29So please,
15:31find someone
15:32who does
15:32or even better
15:33just send someone
15:34down here
15:34to prep me
15:35for my surgery.
15:44It's like a table
15:45with my brain.
15:47I've heard so much
15:48and it never,
15:49ever stopped.
15:50I need to make it
15:51stop.
15:53I need to make it
15:53stop.
15:59Oh, come on.
16:03What's the problem?
16:06Naomi just schooled me
16:07on Wordle
16:07again.
16:09What's the word?
16:10Lunar.
16:12I completely blanked
16:14on the sixth and final guess
16:15and she gets it
16:16and she gets it in two.
16:17Oh, you okay?
16:20You seem a little sad.
16:21Don't, don't, don't even
16:22with me right now.
16:24Two guesses, Dr. Howard.
16:26I'm a lifelong astronomy buff,
16:28so the word came easy.
16:30One thing this small town girl
16:31doesn't love about the big city
16:32is you can't see the stars.
16:35I miss them.
16:37Wow, that, that is sad.
16:40Sure is.
16:41I gotta go.
16:42Oh, also,
16:45I rule.
16:49It's a good one.
16:52What's going on there?
16:55Absolutely nothing.
16:57Really?
16:59I'm sure we've had our moments,
17:01okay,
17:01but we're strictly friends.
17:04Got it.
17:05She has a boyfriend.
17:07Really?
17:09Look,
17:09there's been a lot
17:11of bad timing between us,
17:12but I have a feeling
17:14that this new boyfriend
17:15is a short-timer.
17:16Next time,
17:17I won't miss my chance.
17:19Next time, huh?
17:22You are judging me,
17:24aren't you?
17:24Next times aren't guaranteed,
17:26you know?
17:27Gather ye rosebuds
17:28while ye may.
17:37Hey, Daniel,
17:39I'm sorry for summoning you,
17:41but I just got
17:42a weird call
17:43from the provost
17:45of Porter University
17:47School of Medicine
17:48asking for a reference.
17:50Oh, my God.
17:51Okay, look,
17:52this is Howie,
17:54all right,
17:54who decided to retire.
17:56Now, that's a terrible idea
17:57in my opinion,
17:58but in his mind,
18:00I'm the only person
18:01in the entire universe
18:02who could replace him
18:03as a dean of psychiatry.
18:04I got it.
18:05As long as it's all
18:06in his head
18:07and not in yours.
18:08Oh, trust me,
18:09ain't going nowhere.
18:10And just for the record,
18:11I am flattered
18:13by your concern.
18:14Oh, and I ran
18:16into Dr. Lennox.
18:17She said you're
18:17consulting on a patient
18:19who's demanding
18:19a surgery she may not need.
18:21Yeah, Sage Ellison.
18:23Poor thing.
18:25She's a tough one,
18:26but really suffering,
18:28just not necessarily
18:29in the way she might
18:30have us believe.
18:31Okay.
18:32Oh, and, uh, Daniel,
18:35I'm glad you're
18:36sticking around.
18:38Me too.
18:47Travis.
18:48Travis, wait.
18:50Nope.
18:51I'm out.
18:57Well, Travis just
18:59checked himself out
19:00against medical advice.
19:02Sorry I couldn't help
19:03you move that needle, pal.
19:05Yeah, me too.
19:06But I couldn't help
19:09noticing that you
19:09almost did.
19:11So, look,
19:13none of my business,
19:15but I couldn't help
19:16wondering,
19:18are you in therapy?
19:21Good catch.
19:23Buddy,
19:24it was always
19:24such a hard no for you.
19:26I mean, what got you there?
19:28I'm just curious.
19:29I don't know.
19:30Maybe, uh,
19:31Hannah and Sadie
19:32dumping me
19:33for the same reason.
19:34Oh, man.
19:34Those personal hygiene issues,
19:36they finally caught up
19:37with you.
19:38That and, um,
19:39my savior complex.
19:41Oh, come on.
19:42Isn't that basically
19:43just, I don't know,
19:44being a doctor?
19:47My three exes
19:48all said to me
19:49in so many words,
19:50just do what you're
19:51going to do, Danny,
19:52because that's
19:52what you're best at.
19:54Ouch.
19:55Yeah.
19:56I don't know, man.
19:56You just, uh,
19:58come a long way.
20:00And I hope you don't
20:01mind me telling you
20:02that, uh,
20:04I'm really proud of you.
20:21Dr. Charles,
20:22can I talk to you
20:23in private?
20:25Jake Driscoll,
20:26theater major.
20:26He's a prick.
20:28He's not ugly.
20:30Turned 22
20:30on December 19th.
20:31Any way to tell
20:32how long they've been
20:32dating?
20:33Oh, I have no clue.
20:35Dr. Charles,
20:35there's no hint
20:36of Anna here,
20:37no photos.
20:38As a matter of fact,
20:39he still has his dating
20:40profile set to single.
20:42She was horrified
20:43when I called him
20:43her boyfriend.
20:45Oh.
20:47Well, maybe they're
20:48not exclusive.
20:49Maybe this is, like,
20:50more of a casual thing.
20:52He does give me
20:53wild child Sagittarius
20:54vibes, and Miguel
20:55is also Sagittarius.
20:56That's great, that's great.
20:56Show me the blog.
20:57Okay.
20:59Oh, he's been in
21:00and out of rehab
21:01three times.
21:03Hmm, well, he hasn't
21:04posted in, like,
21:04a month and a half.
21:05I hope he's okay.
21:07What do you mean?
21:09Do you think
21:09he relapsed?
21:12Oh, Lara,
21:13I am very well aware
21:14of how busy you are,
21:15and so I just wanted
21:16to, uh, thank you
21:18again for taking the
21:19time to come in
21:20and talk to me
21:20about your sister.
21:21I really appreciate it.
21:22Just understand,
21:23I don't want to see
21:24Sage, and she can't
21:25know I was here.
21:26You have my word.
21:30So, it sounds to me
21:31like maybe you guys
21:32aren't really in touch
21:33right now.
21:34Not for the last
21:35five years.
21:36You mind if I ask
21:37why?
21:41Let me guess
21:42why I'm here.
21:44Sage is in
21:45unbearable pain,
21:46and she wants
21:47emergency surgery
21:48to fix it.
21:49But you can't seem
21:50to find anything wrong.
21:52Okay.
21:53So, this has
21:54happened before.
21:58Sage is my
21:59kid sister.
22:00We grew up
22:01in the foster system.
22:03Musical families.
22:06Some nice.
22:07Some not so nice.
22:10But when they
22:11weren't nice,
22:11I was always there
22:12to protect her.
22:13But when I aged
22:14out of the foster
22:15system, one kid
22:17cracked her skull
22:18with a bat,
22:18and she had
22:19emergency surgery.
22:21The doctors and
22:22nurses knew her
22:22situation, so they
22:24showered her with
22:24attention to make up
22:25for it.
22:27She's been chasing
22:28that high ever since.
22:31Did it ever occur
22:32to you the possibility
22:33that Sage's pain
22:35might be real to her?
22:37You're giving her
22:38too much credit.
22:39The mind can be
22:40extraordinarily adept
22:41at creating physical
22:43pain, Allara.
22:43It can.
22:44She's not in any pain.
22:47She's just a liar.
22:48Well, the
22:50attention-seeking
22:51behavior you're
22:51describing is at the
22:52core of a very
22:53serious condition
22:54called factitious
22:55disorder, or, as
22:57it's more commonly
22:58known, you know,
22:58Munchausen syndrome.
23:00I don't care what
23:00it's called.
23:02I just know I can't
23:03deal with it anymore.
23:04I blamed myself
23:05for a long time.
23:07Maybe if I'd taken
23:08her with me when
23:08I turned 18,
23:10she'd be normal.
23:14Sage kept me on
23:15the hook with that
23:15guilt.
23:16Well, she kind of
23:16weaponized it,
23:17didn't she?
23:18You're damn right.
23:19I believed her lies,
23:22enabled her,
23:24defended her to
23:25doctors who knew
23:25better, until I
23:27realized I had to
23:29cut her out of my
23:30life, if I was ever
23:31going to actually
23:32have one.
23:39It was my fault.
23:43I killed my
23:44girlfriend.
23:46Hi, I'm Dr. Charles.
23:48Dr. Frost asked me
23:49to stop by.
23:50Lee Holloway, but I'm
23:52not the patient.
23:53Who?
23:54He is.
24:03Well, hello there.
24:05What is, uh, what's
24:07your name?
24:08You know cats don't
24:09talk, Dr. Charles.
24:11Excellent point.
24:12What is this, uh,
24:13this kitty's name?
24:15Slater.
24:19But I'd call him
24:20Adelaide for your own
24:21safety.
24:23Adelaide it is.
24:24Uh, Lee brought him
24:25in with chronic
24:25vomiting.
24:26He's been eating
24:27cat food.
24:28Uh-huh.
24:29And, um, how long
24:30has Adelaide been
24:31doing that for?
24:32Three days.
24:33Since our cat died.
24:35Oh.
24:36Well, I'm so sorry.
24:39Adelaide was my
24:40partner in crime
24:41for 18 years.
24:43I adopted her my
24:44freshman year at
24:44DePaul.
24:45Pre-husband,
24:46pre-motherhood.
24:48She got me through
24:49many breakups.
24:52But it's a pretty
24:52extreme way of trying
24:53to make me feel
24:54better, isn't it?
24:55Lee, would you mind
24:55if I just had a
24:57moment alone with
24:58Adelaide?
24:59Would that be
24:59all right?
25:00Of course.
25:01Just follow me
25:02this way.
25:07Adelaide, why don't
25:08you just, um,
25:09want me to jump up
25:10on the bed?
25:10There's a lot of
25:11fleas on the floor.
25:16Wow.
25:17So look, I am gonna
25:20ask you a few
25:22questions, okay?
25:23And how about, if the
25:25answer is yes, you
25:27meow, and if the
25:29answer is no, you just
25:32don't say anything.
25:33Sound good?
25:35Okay.
25:37Maybe the reason that
25:38you turned into a cat
25:39was because your, your
25:41mom was so sad and you
25:42wanted to make her feel
25:43better?
25:47Okay.
25:47Well, look, I think
25:48it's so wonderful how
25:50hard you're working to
25:51make your mom feel
25:52better.
25:52But I want to let you
25:53in on a little secret.
25:55Moms actually left
25:56their kids more than
25:58anything.
25:58Anything in the whole
25:59wide world, even their
26:01favorite pet.
26:03So what I think is that
26:06who mom actually misses
26:07the most is Slater.
26:18It was my fault.
26:20What was your fault?
26:21Mommy had Hershey
26:23chocolates on the
26:24top shelf of the
26:25pantry.
26:26I'm not supposed to
26:28know because she doesn't
26:29want me eating too much
26:31sugar.
26:31Hmm.
26:33So I snuck in the
26:35pantry after she went
26:37to bed one night and
26:38ate with you.
26:39But I forgot to put the
26:41chocolates back on the
26:42shelf.
26:44I left them on the
26:45floor.
26:47Oh, I see.
26:49And Adelaide found
26:50them.
26:52Mommy found her dead
26:53in the morning.
26:56She'll never
26:57forgive me.
26:58Yes, she will.
27:00I promise you that.
27:02But first we have to tell
27:04her what happened.
27:05I know that that
27:06sounds scary, but I'm
27:08going to help you.
27:08Okay?
27:09And after we do,
27:11trust me, everybody's
27:14going to feel so much
27:15better, especially you.
27:23What kind of doctor are
27:24you?
27:25Why do you ask?
27:26I thought I was going to
27:28have to be a cat forever.
27:30Oh.
27:30Well, I'm really glad that
27:32I could help.
27:34Should we talk to Mom?
27:50Any luck?
27:51Any leads on Gio's phone?
27:53Don't worry, Dan.
27:54I kept your name off him.
27:56Since his life was at an
27:57imminent risk, I was able to
27:58use accident circumstances to
28:00trap the phone.
28:01Fantastic.
28:02And?
28:04And it was purchased at a
28:057-Eleven.
28:06Pay as you go.
28:08No database can ever hit the
28:09number, so I got up quick on
28:10a trap-and-trace ping
28:12order, but it was turned off
28:14right after your hotline.
28:15Oh.
28:17Phone to your ping.
28:18Got an area downtown, but
28:20it's so dense with high
28:21rises, and the ping has a
28:221,000-meter range of error.
28:24So it's like kind of a
28:26needle in a haystack thing.
28:28I did my best.
28:28I tried to track every Gio,
28:30every Giovanni.
28:31Nothing.
28:32So what are you thinking?
28:33Kind of a dead end?
28:35Wish I had more for you.
28:37Look, buddy, I knew this was
28:38a long shot.
28:40I just really appreciate you
28:42looking into it for me.
28:43Really, I do.
28:44Okay.
28:45At least I can do, Doc.
28:46So you're calling me a liar?
28:48No.
28:49You just told me my pain
28:50isn't real.
28:51It's not what I said at all.
28:52What I said was just because
28:53there could be a psychological
28:55element at play here doesn't
28:57mean that this is any less
28:58real to you.
29:00Okay, yeah, great mother
29:01Teresa, but...
29:02But our nervous systems can
29:04learn to express emotional
29:07pain in the form of
29:08physical symptoms.
29:10There it is again.
29:12What did I tell you?
29:13It's all in my head.
29:14I know what I'm saying.
29:15What I'm saying is that your
29:15body and your mind could be
29:18colluding in ways you're not
29:19even aware of because it's
29:20not voluntary.
29:21Stop hiding behind all your
29:22fancy double talk and send me
29:23someone who will actually
29:25listen.
29:25Sage, trust me, I'm
29:27listening.
29:27You're so full of it.
29:28I mean, do you actually know
29:30how full of it you are?
29:31I understand the power of
29:33attention.
29:34Trust me.
29:35You know, medical attention
29:36included for people who feel
29:39lonely and abandoned.
29:41Oh, I'm lonely and abandoned,
29:45am I?
29:46Well, you're a human being.
29:48Okay.
29:49Well, if I need medical
29:51attention to feel whole,
29:54do you know what that makes
29:55you?
29:56I don't know.
29:58What does that make me?
29:59The freak who needs sick
30:02people like me to feel whole
30:04because fixing us is how you
30:06feel important.
30:09You should see your face.
30:12I nailed it, didn't I?
30:15You need me.
30:17I'm the damn drug you're strung
30:19out on.
30:20You need us so that you can feel
30:22useful, so you can BS yourself
30:24into believing you're actually
30:26helping.
30:30Come on, Dr. Charles.
30:32Hit me with some more of your fancy
30:33crap so you can feel better about
30:35yourself and feed your delusion.
30:39because the truth is
30:40you're a useless fraud
30:43and you want to know what's really
30:45sad?
30:47Everybody knows it
30:49but you.
30:59Look, you're clearly a nice guy.
31:01None of this stuff's gonna bring her back.
31:03Oh, sorry.
31:04I'm sorry.
31:05Head it out.
31:06Uh, yeah, my boyfriend and I are
31:07grabbing deep dish at Pequot's.
31:09Oh.
31:10Well, you're not gonna regret that.
31:11Yeah, I can't wait.
31:18Incoming.
31:23Doris, I noticed your friend
31:24requested my new boyfriend today.
31:29Oh.
31:31Yeah.
31:32I don't know.
31:34She was snooping on my behalf.
31:35I put her up to it.
31:37Yeah.
31:37I put that part together all by myself.
31:40You said it wasn't your boyfriend.
31:43I think we should talk.
31:44Yeah.
31:44Let's talk.
31:53You are many things
31:54but internet sleuth
31:55is not one of them.
31:56Honey, maybe I overstepped
31:58a little bit.
31:58Oh, maybe?
31:59Honestly, I was freaked out
32:01by our conversation this morning.
32:02Of course, you were entitled
32:03to a private life.
32:04Oh, thanks so much
32:05for getting that, Dad.
32:06But I mean, just so you know,
32:07the program of Alcoholics Anonymous
32:08actively discourages
32:11relationships
32:11in the first year of sobriety,
32:13okay?
32:13Because it's just
32:14a very risky proposition.
32:17Wow.
32:18This from the man
32:19who spent years
32:19preaching non-judgment
32:20of recovering addicts.
32:22I'm not judging anybody.
32:22I'm trying to protect you.
32:23You know, bad idea for you,
32:25terrible idea for him.
32:26Dr. Drake would have said
32:27the same thing about Johnny.
32:28Jake.
32:29Jake?
32:29Because after all,
32:31didn't the poor fellow
32:31just relapse?
32:32Dad, he had a couple of drinks.
32:34That's called a relapse.
32:35He's fine.
32:36He's going to meetings again.
32:37Great.
32:37Does he know about your situations?
32:39Does he know about your history?
32:40About, you know...
32:41My suicide attempt?
32:42Yes, Dad, he does.
32:44Good.
32:46Honey, I'm just...
32:47You gotta...
32:48Oh, let me guess.
32:50Dealing with such complex emotions
32:51and attachment
32:52could lead to a relapse
32:53of depression
32:54or worse,
32:56suicidal ideation.
32:57Is that what you were gonna say?
32:58I almost lost you.
33:00Okay?
33:03Sharon called me
33:04and told me you'd been in an accident
33:05and that you were
33:06in critical condition.
33:07So Robin and I,
33:08we got in the car
33:09and we drove here.
33:11And it was the longest
33:1215 minutes of my life
33:13because I was terrified
33:14that I would get here
33:16and find you dead!
33:17So you just be careful
33:19around this topic
33:20and you cut me some slack!
33:24Please!
33:43Stop!
33:44Stop, stop!
33:46Stop!
33:49Hi, Dr. Charles.
33:52Are you okay?
33:53I'm fine.
33:56And clearly not as good
33:57as you two,
33:58but, uh,
33:59thank you for asking.
34:21Dr. Charles?
34:23What are you doing?
34:25Looking for the Big Dipper?
34:26No, it's a surprise
34:28for Naomi.
34:31Oh, wow.
34:33Yeah, but, uh,
34:34her shift ends any minute
34:36and she's gonna walk in here,
34:38so...
34:38Buddy, I think I might have
34:39just seen her
34:40leave in the hospital.
34:41Wait, really?
34:42Yeah.
34:43Do you have any idea
34:44where she went?
34:45Mm-mm.
34:47Damn it.
34:49Okay.
34:50Okay.
34:50If you must know,
34:52I was taking your advice.
34:54I know it's kind of corny,
34:56but I was trying to,
34:58I don't know,
34:59make her day.
35:01Well,
35:03if it's any consolation,
35:04um,
35:06I think you might have
35:07just made mine.
35:09Thanks.
35:13Excuse me.
35:14Yeah, go ahead.
35:21Hi, Sharon.
35:22Where are you, Daniel?
35:24I am right behind
35:26the doctor's lounge.
35:27Listen,
35:28I need you to come up
35:29to my office
35:30right away.
35:32Something wrong?
35:33We have a situation,
35:34so don't talk to anyone.
35:36Just come straight up here.
35:39I'm on my way.
35:40I'm on my way.
35:47It's torture,
35:48and I can't do it anymore.
35:50You know what?
35:51This is a mistake.
35:52This thing.
35:53I have some distressing news.
35:56Sage Ellison just filed

36:05Daniel?
36:07What?
36:08Are you okay?
36:10Yeah, I'm fine.
36:11What's going on?
36:12Sorry, what were you saying?
36:13Sage Ellison just filed
36:15an official complaint
36:16against you.
36:18On what grounds?
36:19Well, she claims
36:20you verbally abused her
36:21a few hours ago.
36:23That is a steaming load
36:24of crap.
36:25Well, she also claims
36:27you accused her
36:28of faking her abdominal pain
36:30for attention.
36:31I promise you,
36:32the only person
36:32who got abused
36:34in that room
36:35was me.
36:35You do know
36:36I have to go through
36:38the motions
36:39of processing
36:40this complaint.
36:41Why?
36:43I'm sure nothing happened.
36:45Do you not believe me
36:46when I tell you that?
36:46Yes, of course
36:47I believe you,
36:49but this is about optics.
36:51Come on,
36:51you dismiss
36:52this kind of stuff
36:53all the time.
36:54Daniel,
36:55it's a little different
36:56when the accused
36:58is your best friend.
36:59Now, wouldn't you say...
37:00Come on.
37:01This is unbelievable.
37:02This is unbelievable.
37:03Okay, what is wrong
37:05with you?
37:05What are you not telling me?
37:09What's that supposed
37:10to mean?
37:10Not tell...
37:11Not telling you what?
37:14You don't believe me.
37:15You don't believe me.
37:16No, no.
37:17You don't believe me.
37:18Daniel, wait a minute.
37:20Just slow down.
37:21I'm worried about you.
37:23This is not like my friend.
37:24Yeah, well,
37:25right back at you.
37:26Maybe your friend
37:26doesn't like being called a liar.
37:27Okay, you know what?
37:28Maybe you need
37:29some more personal time.
37:31How about that?
37:32No, what I need
37:32is maybe take Howie's
37:33offer more seriously.
37:35That's what I need.
37:36Okay, so you were
37:37considering it?
37:38You were just lying
37:39to me this morning?
37:39I have never lied to you.
37:41Never!
37:44And I was not
37:45considering it,
37:46not for a second.
37:48But I sure as hell am now.
37:59Hey, yo, right here.
38:01Can you all stand by
38:01one second?
38:02Yeah, thank you.
38:03OR3's ready for her?
38:05What happened?
38:06Uh, Sage just swallowed
38:07some drain cleaner.
38:08What?
38:09Cleaners were here earlier.
38:10She must have stolen it
38:11off the cart.
38:12She was screaming
38:13at the top of her lungs
38:14when I came in.
38:15On exam,
38:15she had significant erythema
38:16and ulceration in her mouth.
38:18Who knows what her esophagus
38:19looks like.
38:20What was she screaming about?
38:21Crazy stuff.
38:22Something about her dad,
38:23I think.
38:23Am I sick enough
38:25for you now, Pop?
38:27Does that mean
38:28something to you?
38:31Is, um...
38:32She couldn't make it.
38:33If she didn't just
38:33put a huge hole
38:34into her esophagus
38:35or stomach
38:36and she doesn't start
38:36to hemorrhage
38:37in the next ten minutes,
38:38maybe.
38:38Let's get her upstairs
38:39to surgery.
