00:05I appreciate you filling in, really.
00:07You're back a little early.
00:08I need a signature.
00:10Well, hopefully you can tolerate a power-sharing agreement.
00:13I'm sick.
00:14I may not die today, but it's coming,
00:17and there's nothing I can do to stop it.
00:20This has gone from fun to a little terrifying.
00:23What's going on with you?
00:25I don't want to die.
00:27Are there any surgical supplies in that medical kit?
00:32Her pulse is coming back up.
00:35There's been some talk about a Nick of Time reboot.
00:37I'm done with that part of my life, you know?
00:39It's easy money.
00:40We just want to see...
00:42I have to decide if I want to be back in the same position,
00:45taking care of them financially.
00:46I was thinking a little bit more about the Nick of Time reboot.
00:49Oh, yeah?
00:49Tell him I'm in.
00:53Dr. Abrams came by earlier,
00:56said there's still no shrinkage to the spinal mass.
01:00Well, it's only your second treatment.
01:03It's off-label.
01:04It needs time to take effect.
01:06I know this hasn't been easy for you, son.
01:10Signing up for the reboot
01:11and looking after your old man.
01:16What I'm trying to say is thank you.
01:19It means the world to me
01:21to have you back in our lives again.
01:26I feel the same, Dad.
01:31Hey, I saw you tried to call me last night.
01:33Oh, yeah.
01:34Sorry, that was...
01:35It was nothing.
01:36Yeah.
01:36I'm sorry I didn't pick up.
01:38I was with Jennifer and, um...
01:40I mean, I didn't notice it till morning.
01:42What did you want to talk about?
01:43I've been thinking a lot about the baby shower
01:45that everyone's throwing for me tomorrow.
01:47Okay.
01:47I cancel it,
01:48but I'm nervous
01:49that I'll just be disappointing everyone.
01:52I mean, what do you think?
01:53What do I think?
01:54I think the only person's disappointment
01:56you need to worry about is your own.
01:59You know, maybe mine.
02:01I'll cancel that.
02:02Okay.
02:04Oh, and hey, I'll, um...
02:06I'll try not to call that late moving forward.
02:10So you think it went well?
02:12Well, which part?
02:14You know, the EKG or the PF study?
02:16Or the fMRI somebody threw in at the last minute?
02:19Whose idea was that?
02:20Well, that came from legal.
02:22My guess trying to placate the insurance company
02:25carrying our malpractice policy.
02:27You know what?
02:28A lesser man might be insulted
02:30having to take a battery a test
02:31to get his job back
02:32after 29 years of stellar service.
02:34Yeah, well, I'm sure a lesser man would.
02:37But seriously,
02:39any lingering effects from the hemorrhage?
02:41Nope.
02:42I'm relieved.
02:44Look, I don't want to freak you out,
02:45but there is a small
02:46but very real chance
02:48that I could, in fact,
02:50be, um,
02:51immortal.
02:55You know, Daniel,
02:56I'm really glad you decided to stay.
02:59I'm not so sure
03:00I'd like being here without you.
03:04Right back at you, old pal.
03:06Good morning.
03:10Morning.
03:12I feel like we haven't had a shift together in a while.
03:15You are right.
03:17I make the schedule.
03:22Hey, I was, uh,
03:23I was thinking maybe we should
03:25grab dinner.
03:27Talk about the other night.
03:30Yeah, maybe.
03:32Hey, guys.
03:33Some jackass just parked
03:34in the middle of our Ambo Bay.
03:35Oh.
03:36Excuse me.
03:39It's...
03:39Oh.
03:40Use your abdominals.
03:41I...
03:42Kip?
03:42Okay, good.
03:43Here.
03:44Hi.
03:44I need your help.
03:45Uh, this is my colleague, Troy.
03:47Hey.
03:48Hey.
03:49I just talked to a customer
03:50into a luxury vehicle upgrade.
03:52Troy, uh,
03:52ran off to pull it around
03:54and he fell down the stairs.
03:56He was acting kind of spacey,
03:57so I, uh,
03:58drove him over here.
03:58Yeah.
03:59Did you hit your head, Troy?
04:00I think so.
04:02Mm-hmm.
04:03You should have called an ambulance.
04:04Hey, hey, Troy.
04:05We'll get you a weird...
04:05Hey!
04:06Jagoff!
04:07I got a pregnant patient
04:08whose water broke back here.
04:09You need to move your car.
04:11It's not my car.
04:11It's one of my rentals.
04:13I got you, Matt.
04:14It's a hospital.
04:15I will move your car.
04:16Hey, guys.
04:17I'm Dr. Asher.
04:18I'm an OV.
04:19The medic said that your water broke.
04:21I'm only at 36 weeks.
04:22This can't be happening.
04:23Okay, it's okay.
04:24Sometimes labor comes earlier than expected.
04:26Babies tend to call the shots
04:27and you're only a week before being termed, so...
04:29No, you don't understand.
04:31If I go into labor,
04:32my baby will die.
04:44The good news is
04:45you're only half a centimeter dilated
04:47and contractions haven't begun yet, so...
04:49So I haven't started labor yet?
04:50No, not yet.
04:51Thank God.
04:52They told me that everything
04:53would get infinitely more complicated
04:55once contractions started.
04:56All right, I think this is the best image
04:57I'm going to be able to get.
04:58Okay, I can see that teratoma now
05:00constricting the airway.
05:02When was this first diagnosed?
05:04During my anatomy scan
05:06at about 20 weeks.
05:07My OB didn't know what it was at first.
05:09It's pretty rare for a fetus
05:10to develop a teratoma at all,
05:12never mind one compromising its airway.
05:14We've been told that she won't survive childbirth
05:16without an exit procedure.
05:18Exit procedure?
05:18An ex-utero intrapartum treatment.
05:20It's a specialized delivery
05:22where you can stabilize the baby's airway
05:23while it's still attached
05:24to the umbilical cord.
05:25We had one scheduled up at Mayo
05:27a week after next.
05:29I was told that I still had
05:30plenty of time to spare.
05:32I couldn't reach Dr. Shoemaker.
05:33They said they'd try and paid you.
05:34Is it possible to be medevaced up to Rochester?
05:36I wouldn't advise so at this juncture, no.
05:38Why?
05:39You said that I hadn't started labor yet.
05:40Breaking your water indicates
05:42that contractions can begin at any moment.
05:44We can give you something
05:45to help try to delay them.
05:47Okay.
05:4820 of nifedipine?
05:49Make it 30.
05:50In the meantime,
05:51I'll consult with our pediatric surgery team
05:53to see about performing the procedure here.
05:55Don't worry.
05:56We're gonna take good care of you, okay?
06:02I was afraid you left.
06:04I wanted to wish you good luck.
06:05We don't say good luck in the biz.
06:07We say break a leg.
06:09Oh.
06:10Well, I'm not sure I can say that
06:11without violating my Hippocratic Oath.
06:13Yeah, right.
06:16Seriously, though,
06:17how do you feel about acting again?
06:18Are you excited?
06:19More like obligated.
06:22She was either due to reboot
06:24or sell a kidney
06:25to pay for my dad's treatment,
06:26and I did a lot of drinking in undergrad,
06:29so it's not a viable option for me.
06:31Well, I'm sure you must have had fun acting, right?
06:34It had its moments.
06:36Hmm.
06:40Okay.
06:41What's with the Cartier?
06:42Oh, that.
06:43It's a gift from Miranda.
06:45The lady that delivered it
06:46called it a tank watch.
06:48Wow.
06:49It's classy.
06:49Yeah, I don't know.
06:52I don't really feel comfortable accepting it.
06:55You only helped save her life.
06:57No.
06:58All I did was answer the phone when it rang.
07:00Miss Goodwin did all the work.
07:01Come on.
07:02You should still accept it, okay?
07:04You know what they say.
07:05Don't look at Gift Horus in the pericardium.
07:07What?
07:07I don't know.
07:08It sounded cooler in my head.
07:10I gotta run.
07:11Here.
07:12Follow my finger?
07:13Your CT looks rather unremarkable,
07:15but you had pain in your neck
07:17when Dr. Ripley put on your C-collar?
07:19Uh-huh.
07:20Okay.
07:21Oh, hey.
07:22The parking garage was a trek and a half.
07:24I'd like to send you up for an MRI
07:26to rule out any ligamentous injury,
07:28just to be safe.
07:28Uh, does this qualify for workers' comp?
07:31That is something you should discuss
07:33with your supervisor.
07:34So, Kip?
07:37Or his supervisor.
07:38But for now, just hang tight
07:40till we get you that MRI.
07:43I'll call and ask.
07:46Ooh!
07:47Saving lives, man.
07:48Such a rush.
07:50I get the appeal.
07:51How long is medical school again?
07:53You're considering med school.
07:54Just ignore him, Mitch.
07:55Oh, wait, wait, wait.
07:56You're the infamous Dr. Mitch Ripley?
07:59Well, I've heard so much about you.
08:00Have you?
08:01This is neither the time nor the place, Kip.
08:04Oh, crap.
08:05Sorry.
08:06We are still keeping this a secret at work.
08:09Nice to meet you, Kip.
08:10I got another patient to get to.
08:12Oh.
08:12Trouble in paradise?
08:14Waiting room or your friend's trauma room?
08:15I'm working.
08:21Dr. Ruiz?
08:23I'm just curious why this patient is being discharged.
08:27And since it looks like we gave him a milligram of risperidone only an hour ago.
08:31He appears to have calmed down completely.
08:33Hospital policy mandates that we keep him under observation for a minimum of three hours, right?
08:37So, what do you say we split the difference and check in on Mr. Abramowitz another hour?
08:43That's on me, Daniel.
08:45If you ask me, we've been awfully conservative with the potential drug interactions.
08:49And in this case, the confidence intervals for the drug's efficacy is basically the same at three hours as it
08:55is at one hour, save for the very rarest of edge cases.
08:59Okay.
09:01And that time savings has really helped with bed turnover rate.
09:03That's great.
09:04Only thing is, like, I actually designed the policy specifically to identify and, you know, protect those outliers, those educations.
09:13And it was kind of the whole idea.
09:14Got it.
09:15I was just looking for ways to be more efficient.
09:17Which is great.
09:20But let's keep Mr. Abramowitz here for another hour, Dr. Ruiz, and get another BP reading.
09:25Yes, sir.
09:30Theo, you know, um, look, have you had any other ideas that you want to or have been experimenting with
09:38while I was away?
09:39Let's get together, give them a look.
09:41Great.
09:42I'll send you a list.
09:47First off, I have to say I might be your guys' biggest fan.
09:50Yeah, I mean, I literally grew up on this show.
09:53And now here I am breaking bread with Nick and Mac, the time team, back in action.
09:59And, hey, anything you need from us to get this thing going?
10:02Well, for starters, we've got a big new concept for the reboot that the studio's really excited about.
10:07Dude, you're gonna love this.
10:08We're gonna be bringing in a new set of best friends to find the backpack.
10:11Tween girls this time, Mackenzie and Nicole.
10:13Nicole's my daughter.
10:15Get it?
10:15Next gen Nick and Mac.
10:16I got it, bro.
10:17Yeah.
10:18All right.
10:18Jonathan, we were thinking you could be Nicole's fun uncle.
10:22Wow.
10:22And don't worry, we're gonna be totally flexible working around your schedule.
10:25I'm just doing the first episode, but this really does all sound great.
10:32Oh, and there she is.
10:34I see that.
10:34Surprise.
10:35We got another original cast member to sign on.
10:37The fans are gonna go crazy.
10:39Hi.
10:40Did you know about this?
10:42No, but this is great.
10:43It's just like old times, huh?
10:45Oh, my goodness.
10:46Ainsley, come here.
10:48Hi.
10:48Okay, sit down, everybody.
10:50Sit down.
10:51Mm-hmm.
10:58So, what did I miss?
11:07Dr. Asher, you wanted to speak with me about your patient?
11:11Yes.
11:11I consulted with our pediatric surgical team, and it seems that our exit procedure specialist is unfortunately out of pocket
11:17today.
11:18So, I'd heard, but luckily, I just arranged to fly Dr. Shoemaker down from Minnesota.
11:23She'll be here within the hour.
11:25That's good news.
11:26Is she, is she licensed to practice in Illinois?
11:28Well, considering the circumstances, we'd be more than happy to grant her emergency privileges.
11:34Okay, I will let Giselle and Xander know.
11:36Great.
11:40Shouldn't you be back at work?
11:42Oh, well, assistant manager has its perks.
11:45Oh.
11:45Plus, I thought I'd stick around until Troy got discharged so I could drive him home.
11:49Okay.
11:49And I want to know the deal between you and Ripley.
11:52Seemed like there was some tension between you two.
11:55I don't even know why I told you about him.
11:56It was hardly a thing, and it might not even be that anymore.
12:01You guys are perfect for each other.
12:03He's a doctor, you're a doctor, and you could still date and work 80 hours a week.
12:07This conversation is over.
12:08Look, I'm just saying, I never thought that I would settle down until I met Gemma.
12:12Well, maybe you and I are just different people.
12:15How so?
12:17Dr. Lennox, Dr. Ripley's asking for you.
12:21My arms.
12:22My arms, they feel like they're on fire.
12:23He's been complaining of a tingling and burning sensation.
12:26All right, here, Troy, squeeze my hands.
12:29Grip is weakening.
12:31What's going on?
12:32Out of the room, Kip.
12:32I don't want to have to tell you that again.
12:34Okay, okay.
12:35I think we might be looking at a spinal cord injury.
12:37Well, let's fold in neurosearch.
12:39Okay.
12:47I looked online.
12:48Mine, it's very expensive.
12:51Indeed.
12:52I gather it's a thank you gift for having helped save her life, and, well, I'm not sure what
12:56I should do about it.
12:57I mean, it's very pretty, but for some reason, I...
13:02It doesn't sit right with you.
13:05I was just doing my job.
13:07And I don't want to seem rude or ungrateful, especially to a board member, but I feel like
13:13I should return it to Miss Lewis.
13:16Leave the watch with me.
13:18I'll take care of it with Miss Lewis.
13:21You're sure it's new in position?
13:23More than sure.
13:27So, Nicole, right?
13:28She isn't sure what to make of the backpack at first, until a little talk from Nana and
13:32Uncle Mac.
13:33Oh, wait, Nana, that's frightening.
13:34Tell me about it.
13:35I'm going to be playing the dad of a teenager.
13:39Trust me.
13:39Ainsley, you'll be the hottest Nana on TV.
13:42Stop.
13:42But what I really wanted to focus on moving forward was the mother-son dynamic you two
13:46have going.
13:47Yeah, no, you're right, Angelica.
13:48Jonathan and I have always had great chemistry.
13:50I'm sorry.
13:51You guys are trying to get all of this just in the pilot?
13:54Well, I figured since we have Ainsley back, there was more juice to squeeze there.
13:59So Mac could pop in from time to time throughout the season?
14:01Exactly.
14:01And it would mean a lot more money.
14:03You know, I think this all sounds great.
14:05I mean, our characters obviously have a lot to work through after all these years.
14:13Yeah, I don't think they do.
14:19No, don't go, Jonathan.
14:20I will go.
14:21Please, hey, you stay.
14:22Okay?
14:23I have to get back to the hospital.
14:27Make it for lunch.
14:32No, it's not good.
14:34Oh, bad.
14:34We're way past that.
14:35Her heart is shot.
14:37They can't keep the fluid off of her lungs.
14:40I don't know.
14:43Listen, we're at Gaffney.
14:45If you wanted to say goodbye.
14:48Trini, call palliative care and get a morphine drip ready to transition to comfort care.
14:53Right away.
14:55Things are looking pretty bleak in here, I guess, Dino.
15:00Yeah, congestive heart failure, I'm afraid.
15:02The poor woman's run out of road, as they say.
15:04Right.
15:05Yeah.
15:06Not even on the transplant list anymore, is she?
15:09If I had a new heart to give her today, it wouldn't matter.
15:11Just doing all I can to keep her comfortable.
15:13You got a lot of nerve.
15:16Oh, that's right.
15:17You know each other.
15:18Know each other?
15:20He killed my sister.
15:22Decided that she wasn't worthy enough to receive a heart while she still had a chance to live like the
15:26prick thinks he's God?
15:28Celia, listen, I know that there's nothing I could say to make you believe what I'm about to tell you.
15:35But I am genuinely sorry that it has come to this.
15:40I truly am.
15:42You should go.
15:44No.
15:47Let him see what he's done.
15:57Yo.
15:59What was that all about?
16:01I'm not doing the show anymore.
16:03Alright, I'm out.
16:03You know this whole thing falls apart if you walk.
16:06I'm sorry.
16:07Dude, you're doing the reboot, you're not doing the reboot.
16:09Dude, like, what is going on with you, man?
16:13Hey, this might just be a game for you, but this is my life.
16:16Like, why are you jerking me around?
16:17I cannot do this with Ainsley, alright?
16:19Why?
16:20What the hell is going on between you two?
16:24You really don't know?
16:25Know what?
16:26I thought you guys were friends.
16:36Oh.
16:41We were just kids then.
16:43We were.
16:45I was.
16:48Why didn't you ever tell me?
16:51She told me I needed to keep it a secret.
16:56Look, Ian, I know what this means for you, and I'm sorry.
17:01I really am, but being back in there, seeing her, I, I, it just brought me back to right
17:12where I was when I was a kid.
17:16I can't do that to myself again.
17:18It's okay.
17:21I get it, man.
17:25Hey, really.
17:28I'm sorry, man.
17:29I know.
17:29Come here.
17:30Sorry.
17:31It's okay.
17:31It's okay.
17:37I hear a little bundle of joy sped up her time of arrival.
17:41Thank God, Dr. Shoemaker.
17:43I know I messed up not coming up to Rochester earlier.
17:46That's okay, Giselle.
17:47That's what helicopters are for, right?
17:50You must be Dr. Asher.
17:51I'm Liza.
17:52I understand she's begun contractions.
17:54Yes, we've begun talking about possible ramifications.
17:56Dr. Asher thinks it's too risky now.
17:58How dilated is she?
18:00Six centimeters, but it's more the rate of change that I'm concerned about.
18:04It's not ideal, I agree, but as long as we can start soon, I'm confident I can still perform
18:09the procedure, if that's what you guys want.
18:11Yes, that's what we want.
18:13I'll have an OR staffed and ready to go in 10.
18:17Did you read it today?
18:19Yeah.
18:20So if you look here at C5-C6, you'll see what appears to be enhanced cord signaling.
18:24We're thinking central cord syndrome.
18:26Yeah, that's what I'm seeing as well.
18:28You were right to bring us in.
18:29Though I'm a bit confused with the imagery here.
18:32How so?
18:33I'm not sure you can attribute much of this damage to the fall this guy took.
18:36See this here?
18:38And here?
18:39That looks more like damage caused by excessive extension.
18:43Did he come in immobilized?
18:45No.
18:46No, he wasn't.
18:47What dumbass EMT didn't know enough to put a collar on him?
18:51He was actually brought in by a civilian.
18:55Well, unless this guy wants to risk permanent loss of function of both arms, we'd recommend
18:59an interior cervical disfusion.
19:01All right, let me know when he's prepped.
19:02I'll pop in to see what you all find.
19:11Hey.
19:13Did you think he'll be okay?
19:15Troy had a little complication from the fall he took, and his spine is not as stable as
19:20we'd hoped for, so we're sending him up to surgery now.
19:23Oh, man.
19:26Did I do something wrong?
19:27No.
19:27No, you did good bringing him in.
19:29There's a waiting room outside the OR.
19:31You can hang out there.
19:33Okay.
19:40Okay.
19:41Don't look at me like that.
19:42Kip is very sensitive.
19:44Sometimes he needs to be protected from the truth.
19:46That's my job.
19:48I was just going to say that I think you're being a good sister.
19:59Time of death, 1723.
20:13Sorry, Daniel.
20:14I know this is a lot to process.
20:18It was a tough call to make.
20:22But still, it's a huge burden to place on any one person's shoulders, even someone as
20:27strong as yours.
20:28You know what?
20:28I really appreciate your saying that, Theo, but that was the job that I signed up for.
20:34But thank you.
20:36I mean, as it stands today, maybe.
20:41But that's why I keep pushing the fMRI so hard.
20:45Do you realize how close we are to a world where we can use hard data to make these kinds
20:50of painful decisions objectively, instead of relying on somebody's judgment?
20:57You're serious.
20:58I'm dead serious.
20:59You're honestly telling me you think an fMRI could determine whether Linda, an addict
21:05with very shaky sobriety, who was probably going to relapse and in the process, probably
21:10reject that heart, waste that organ?
21:12You think a machine could make that call?
21:14No, Theo.
21:15No.
21:17Only a human being can make that determination.
21:20So why not me?
21:21I think you're misunderstanding me.
21:22Buddy, sometimes I honestly wonder if you are in the right line of work.
21:40So is this your first exit procedure?
21:44No pregnancy.
21:45Yes, actually.
21:47We're both.
21:48I've got three kids myself.
21:51First one, I worked all the way up until delivery.
21:54The last two, though, I took leave at about 30 weeks.
21:58Between being on my feet all day and the hormones, it was just so hard.
22:02I wasn't being fair to my patients.
22:09Is this about me trying to convince Giselle not to do the surgery?
22:12Because if it is, I'm afraid we might not be on the same page in regards to priorities.
22:16What makes you think that?
22:17I get that you are a miracle worker, but my objective is to make sure that Giselle survives.
22:23So if that means clamping the cord before she bleeds out, even if you haven't finished
22:27securing the baby's airway yet, then so be it.
22:31I will not let her die on that table, understood?
22:34Understood.
22:36But just so you know, I've done 28 exits, and I've never lost a patient.
22:41I have no intention of breaking that streak.
22:58Okay.
23:01Pulling baby partially out.
23:03All right, start the clock, Asha, and push some nitro to keep that uterus nice and soft.
23:07The two toe mix in more laterally than I expected.
23:09I'll need to partially dissect the tumor before I can intubate.
23:12How long is that going to take?
23:13Eight or nine minutes.
23:14Okay, I want BP and HR updates every 20 seconds.
23:17Roger that.
23:22Here.
23:23Oh.
23:24Waiting is the worst part.
23:26Yeah.
23:29I shouldn't be worried, right?
23:31No.
23:32No, no.
23:33Your, uh, your sister's got this.
23:36She's a rock star.
23:38Yeah.
23:40She's good at that.
23:42Helping people.
23:45Not so good at love, though, right?
23:48No comment.
23:52Look, Katie would probably kill me if she heard me telling you this, but, um...
23:58I wouldn't give up on her just yet.
24:03Feels sometimes like that's what she wants.
24:07No, no.
24:09She cares about you.
24:10I can tell.
24:11But expressing human emotion just isn't really her thing.
24:15She's basically part robot.
24:18I feel like it's more of a survival mechanism for her than anything.
24:23She was basically forced to raise me when our parents died.
24:27Someone had to keep it together.
24:30Look, I'm the closest person in her life, and even she keeps me at an arm's length.
24:35I think that maybe she's still trying to adjust to the fact that a noose is no longer hanging around
24:40her neck.
24:42Noose?
24:43Yeah, our mom's prion disease.
24:45We made a pact and never get tested, but, uh, after my health scare, you know...
24:50Wait, your mom died of prion disease?
24:55Yeah, 15 years ago.
24:57G.S.S.
24:58I-I can't believe she never told you that.
25:02Oh, wait.
25:03Yes, I can.
25:05Uh, anyway, don't worry.
25:07She tested negative.
25:09We both did.
25:11I cannot tell you how much of a huge relief it was when she told me that she didn't have
25:15it.
25:19How'd it go?
25:21Troy could be probably paralyzed, or...
25:23No, no, Troy will make a full recovery.
25:26Oh, my God.
25:28I had the best fear ever!
25:29You do, you do.
25:30Okay, let me down.
25:31Whoa.
25:33Well, I guess I'll tell my boss the good news.
25:36Mm-hmm.
25:44You want me a tonsil?
25:46We're on pace, making progress.
25:48Time, Usha?
25:49Six minutes, 23 seconds, since we performed a C-section.
25:54HR just went up a tick.
25:55It's 4.14 now.
25:56She could be bleeding somewhere.
25:58I don't know.
25:59BP's still stable.
26:00Purple sense is about to detach.
26:01We're cutting the cord now.
26:02If I could have it in just two minutes, I can't establish an airway.
26:04She doesn't have that.
26:05We're cutting now.
26:06Scissors!
26:09She's out.
26:10Let's keep her head elevated and move her...
26:12Let's get methanogen and oxytocin.
26:14Stop the bleeding.
26:15I wasn't finished yet.
26:16I don't know if I can establish an airway.
26:17Go back, girl Sutra.
26:23I couldn't risk losing mom.
26:24I didn't have a choice.
26:27Airway cleared.
26:27Let's activate.
26:32She's gonna be okay, everybody.
26:33Good work.
26:35Good work.
26:35Good work.
26:42Jonathan.
26:44Honey, where were you?
26:47Your producer's been calling.
26:49She said that you just up and walked in the middle of lunch, that you're backing out of
26:53the reboot.
26:55Yeah.
26:56Yeah, that's true.
26:58What are you doing?
27:00You're just gonna desert your old friends?
27:02Ian Ainsley?
27:05Listen, I will find another way to pay for the treatment.
27:09I swear, don't worry about it.
27:12How?
27:12Honey, will you go get me another blanket?
27:18Maybe give Jonathan and I a moment alone.
27:27Listen, I know that your mother can be a lot.
27:33But what happened?
27:35Were they not willing to work around your schedule?
27:37Because we can talk to business affairs again.
27:39No.
27:39Dad, it wasn't anything like that.
27:42Well, then what?
27:44Was it your new girlfriend?
27:47Why would it have anything to do with Naomi?
27:50Me working with Ainsley again.
27:53Women don't like it when their new boys start spending a lot of time with an ex.
28:03You knew about that?
28:05Of course I did.
28:06I'm your dad.
28:10I was 16 years old.
28:13Never occurred to you that maybe you should be protecting me?
28:17Protecting you?
28:18You were a TV star.
28:20Having sex with a beautiful woman.
28:22Was I supposed to protect you from?
28:24Yourself?
28:25I was a kid.
28:27We gave you a pretty damn good life.
28:29No.
28:31No, I gave you one.
28:35I gave you both one.
28:36Do you understand that?
28:37Whose job was it, Dad?
28:40Hmm?
28:41Whose job was it to make sure that we had the rent, the food, that you had the nicest clothes,
28:46and were driving the nicest car, huh?
28:47I was a kid forced to be a parent to two blood-sucking vampires that only ever cared about what
28:57I could do for them, right?
28:59Poor Jonathan.
29:01Always the victim.
29:02Oh, my God.
29:04You really haven't changed at all, have you?
29:06What the hell is that supposed to be?
29:07It means it's not my job to take care of you.
29:10Do you understand that?
29:13It should have never been my job.
29:17It seems it's your job to protect me from an adult that was taking advantage of me.
29:24What are you talking about?
29:28Who was taking advantage of you?
29:31Who was taking advantage of you?
30:01Who was taking advantage of you before?
30:01No, just now.
30:03I'm going to leave you a piece, okay?
30:07Actually, um, I prefer the company.
30:11Working a double shift tonight, otherwise I'd probably be at a meeting.
30:16Oh, man.
30:17Tough day, huh?
30:19Yeah.
30:26What's going on?
30:27I almost cost a couple their newborn.
30:31Couldn't get control of my fear.
30:34You know, I was just gripping so tight.
30:39Trying not to let this woman die on the table.
30:41I don't know if I've ever told you this, but my mom died having me.
30:44And it's just crazy, the power that it still has over me.
30:50Oh, it's not crazy.
30:52It's not crazy at all.
30:54You know, from everything that I've been told, she's just this...
30:59true miracle of a person, you know?
31:02Yeah.
31:03And I keep thinking about this.
31:04This is one memory where I lost my tooth and I went into my dad's room to show him because,
31:11you know, I was so proud.
31:13Yeah.
31:15There he was just...
31:19sitting on the corner of his bed holding a frame photo and my mom sobbing.
31:28And that sound is like nothing that I've heard since.
31:33It's just...
31:37It's broken.
31:38And I've never been able to fill the hole that I left in him.
31:43Patching that hole?
31:45Are you sure that that's your job?
31:48It doesn't matter if it's my job because he still blames me.
31:52I feel it.
31:54I've never met your dad.
31:55I just have a really hard time believing that.
31:59He loves me as much as he can.
32:02I think you gotta go have a chat.
32:09Yeah.
32:11Oh!
32:12I see that you and Dr. Howard got my gifts.
32:15We did.
32:15And while we both agree that these are a lovely gesture, we just can't accept them.
32:20Well, it's not because of the ethics, is it?
32:22Because I did have my guy check with the AMA, and apparently if it's a gift given from beneficence
32:27or appreciation, it's fine.
32:28No, no.
32:28It's more than that.
32:29These are very expensive, Miranda.
32:32That's the point.
32:33But they're not necessary, and it just wouldn't feel right.
32:37But thank you, thank you.
32:39I mean, truly, I hope you understand.
32:43How am I supposed to show my gratitude, then?
32:47By simply saying thank you.
32:50That does not come easy to me.
32:52So you'd rather spend $50,000 to avoid it?
32:56I don't like to feel indebted to anyone.
32:58Well, you're not indebted to me, Miranda, or Dr. Howard.
33:02Not at all.
33:03You saved my life.
33:04Well, that's because that's what we're trained to do.
33:09What, you were afraid I'd hold this over your head?
33:12I know, it's cynical, but I've seen it a million times.
33:19I was going to fire you that day.
33:21I know that.
33:22But I would never leverage your life for personal gain.
33:27I mean, that's just not who I am.
33:31Thank you, Sharon.
33:33Genuinely.
33:34You're welcome.
33:37What's so important that you had me drive out here at this hour?
33:40I thought you were in labor.
33:42I, uh, I need to clear the air about something that's been bothering me for most of my life.
33:52Okay.
34:01I know that you blame me for Mom's death.
34:07Look, I know your hormones are exploding at this point.
34:10No, that's not, that's not what this is about.
34:12And I need to talk about this before my baby's born.
34:15Oh, what you need is rest, Hannah.
34:16So I'm going to leave because I parked in the red zone.
34:19No, no, I want to talk about this now.
34:23There has always been a space between us, and I have felt it for as long as I can remember.
34:29And I know that you feel it, too, so please don't deny it.
34:32Please.
34:35Look, I know.
34:37I have not been the best father to you.
34:39But there's no space.
34:44Okay.
34:46Well, then, why are you always like this?
34:50Like what?
34:51Hesitant.
34:52Withdrawn.
34:54You'd rather run away than look me in the eye.
34:59Look, I have been trying to get your attention my whole life.
35:02And I think it's because of Mom.
35:07It's hard to look at you.
35:10But, but not because I blame you.
35:13How could I?
35:14You were just a little tiny baby coming into the world.
35:17Okay.
35:20Then why?
35:24Because you remind me so much of her.
35:28Same kind eyes.
35:30Same patient smile.
35:32Same little tilt of the head when you ask a question.
35:37You know, you can play with your hair when you're lost in thought.
35:42I didn't know that I did that.
35:45Yeah, of course you do.
35:46She's a part of you.
35:48More so than Lizzie and Matt.
35:57I loved your mother so very much.
36:02Sometimes looking at you just makes me miss her.
36:05That's all.
36:06I swear to you, Hannah, I have never, ever blamed you for what happened to your mother.
36:12Not once.
36:14Never.
36:16And I'm so sorry if I've ever made you feel less loved or less important.
36:23But you're your own person, Hannah.
36:27You're so much more fierce than your mother was.
36:29And tougher, too.
36:33God.
36:34She would be so damn proud of you.
36:43Well, thank you for telling me this.
36:49I've always wanted to be like her.
36:54But this makes me feel closer to her somehow.
36:58I wish she was here to tell you all this.
37:03She was so excited to meet you.
37:06We both were.
37:20Come in.
37:22What's with all the cryptic texts?
37:23We've got to work on your emoji game, my friend.
37:25Your evaluation results came back.
37:28And?
37:29Well, everything is fine, except your fMRI scans were flagged.
37:35Really?
37:36Yeah.
37:38By, uh...
37:39By who?
37:41Let me guess.
37:43Theo Robari.
37:44I suppose.
37:46It doesn't say.
37:48That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
37:50You know, Sharon, he's actually been making these weird moves while I was away.
37:54And I was starting to think, he's calling me crazy, that he actually wants my job.
37:59It's like a joke.
38:01You know what's got me worried?
38:05Turnover for psych patients went up 27% the first week Dr. Robari was running things.
38:13Now, it didn't mean anything to me at first, but now I'm a little concerned that a picture is forming
38:23for the board.
38:25Sharon, come on.
38:26Of course the turnover number is going to go up.
38:28Theo doesn't think that, you know, psychiatrists and their patients even need to converse.
38:33Oh, come on.
38:33You don't think he's actually going to get away with this.
38:37Look, this is the part where you're supposed to say, don't worry, Danny.
38:40Everything's going to be okay.
38:41I wish I could, Daniel.
38:43But I think we may have a fight on our hands.
38:51Hey.
38:52Hi.
38:53I was surprised you texted.
38:55Well, maybe I misread the instructions on the Orville Redenbacher and I didn't want it to go to waste.
39:05And I heard that you're really into, uh, Gilmore Girls?
39:10I cannot confirm nor deny.
39:13You're not like Team Jess or something?
39:20It's nice, uh, meeting your brother today.
39:24I'm so sorry about that and thank you for babysitting him.
39:27No, it's good to, uh, it's good to get to know him a bit.
39:31Tell me about your mom.
39:33And her, uh, prion disease.
39:38Really?
39:40Oh.
39:41What else did he tell you?
39:42Well, it's just that you've, you both got screened and you told him you tested negative.
39:49Yeah.
39:50You know, I've been trying to figure out what could have possibly happened to cause such a huge change in
40:01your behavior.
40:02And for a while, I, I thought it was just cause you were so head over heels for me.
40:08Now I think that was just my ego talking.
40:13You tested positive, didn't you?
40:16No.
40:19No.
40:20Did you get that from Kit?
40:22No.
40:23Well, I got it from you.
40:27My brother's a little sensitive.
40:29He needs to be protected sometimes.
40:33You lied to him to protect him from the truth, didn't you?
40:43Get out.
40:45What?
40:47Get out.
40:48Kaylin, we need to, this is something we need to talk about.
40:51Get out!
40:52Get out!
40:55Okay.
41:15I don't know.
41:32I don't know.
42:04I don't know.
