00:14Amelia
00:16Yeah, I do it
00:19Well, I'm starting a parenting journey at this point in your life
00:24Sometimes I worry about how this is gonna work you and I raising a kid together
00:29So pretty, what's your name? Sharon, you're tired, aren't you?
00:34I
00:34It's okay, Bert. You can just sit
00:46I think your doorbell's broken. It worked fine. I was sleeping. What happened to your key? I lost it
00:55You know what? You were sleeping? Since when do you sleep past six?
00:59Since when are you up before noon?
01:01And what's with the suit? Is this a Halloween costume?
01:05This is a hundred percent polyester I'll have you now. That's not good. It's for work
01:11Hey, you got a bike? Uh, yeah, I got a bike. Sorry
01:14You got a job that requires you to wear something besides a ratty t-shirt?
01:18Well, I see that you're currently enjoying one of my ratty. I don't want to miss your breakfast rush
01:23Hey, what's up, dude? Look, I didn't know. I thought she was single. Oh, I'm her brother. No. Oh, well,
01:31cool. Uh, nice to meet you, man
01:33Yeah, um, have you seen my pants?
01:38I think they're by the couch
01:40Oh, thanks
01:41Uh, just let me use the bathroom
01:46Aye, aye, Cap
01:48Impulse pie?
01:49No, what are you even doing here, Cap?
01:52Oh, so, um, do you still have mom's ring?
01:55I, uh, kind of got some important news
01:57Might want to sit down for this
02:01Okay, uh, I am proposing to my girlfriend
02:04Oh, how far along is she?
02:06Seriously, Katie, Gemma is the most amazing person on the planet
02:09We're hanging out in Andersonville tonight
02:11You should stop by and meet her
02:14Guess I'll be heading out there
02:15Oh, get out
02:17All right
02:17Quick eats?
02:20Or is this like a quick eat?
02:22Hell of a tip
02:23Cap
02:24What? I'm happy for both of you
02:26Sex makes the world go round
02:28Yeah, sometimes I get to meet some pretty cool people
02:34So do you have mom's ring or are you gonna save it for the delivery, dude?
02:42So it's just the ultrasound today, right?
02:45Uh, yeah
02:48Hi
02:51I'm Dr. Lavelle
02:53Dr. Clark had to step out to do a delivery
02:55So I'm gonna be doing your ultrasound today, okay?
02:58Okay, yeah, uh, sure
03:00Before we get started, two very important questions
03:03Question number one
03:05Do either of you know who I was supposed to be?
03:09Your cat
03:10I'm the cat that went viral for looking like Eugene Levy
03:13Remember he had those funny markings on his fur like eyebrows?
03:16Oh, you know, I'm not really active on Instagram
03:18It's time to move on to tick-tock
03:21Anyway
03:23Question two
03:24Do we want to learn the baby's sex today?
03:26Yes, we would
03:27I'd rather not
03:28So, um
03:30I was
03:32Kind of thinking it would be nice if we kept it a surprise
03:35Oh, you really think we need any more surprises?
03:39I mean, why is learning the sex so important?
03:41I mean, who would help to figure out the design of the nursery?
03:46You could always do a gender neutral theme
03:48Outer space, the ocean, woodland creatures
03:52Oh, yes, those are great ideas, thanks
03:54Yeah, I'm really not worried about the nursery
03:57Okay, well then we'll just revisit it at our next visit
04:03I'll make a note for Dr. Clark
04:05Are you ready?
04:06Yeah, all right
04:09Okay
04:11Knock, knock
04:12We were supposed to meet at Lou Mitchell's for breakfast this morning, birthday boy
04:16I told you to get my text
04:17I'm so sorry
04:18I can't do it today
04:19This day has turned into an actual freaking nightmare
04:21I'm so sorry
04:22Yeah, we got your text
04:23We chose to ignore it
04:24Did you really think we were going to let you wriggle away from any and all humiliation?
04:29Do your colleagues realize how old you are?
04:32Oh, hey
04:34This guy is 65 today
04:36Tell a friend
04:37Would you have a lighter by any chance?
04:39Oh, almost forgot your present
04:41Smoke, but um
04:42Oh, this was obviously Howie's idea
04:46Ta-da!
04:48Whoa!
04:49Oh, here we go
04:51Shippers
04:51Guys, they're gorgeous
04:53Are they fancy?
04:55That's my name
04:57I don't even play golf
04:59Uh, not yet you don't
05:01You're always talking about how the ED is a young person's game
05:04Certainly you must be getting tired of fighting the same old fight
05:08Make a wish
05:14Not even 9 a.m. and we're already getting Halloween injuries
05:17So glad I'm off tonight
05:19Big plans?
05:20Uh, Sadie and I are taking Amelia trick-or-treating
05:24Really?
05:25Really?
05:25Well, so that's kind of turned into a, uh, what a bit of a thing
05:28Yeah, a really nice thing
05:30Dr. Ripley, you're on deck going to treatment for
05:33Eight-year-old boy fall down at school
05:34Trauma to the face
05:35Teacher rode in with him
05:36Sorry pal, no rest for the weary
05:38Actually, Dr. Charles, you're needed too
05:40It's a possible psych issue
05:41Hmm, trick or treat
05:44Lucas, early eight-year-old male
05:46Two centimeter through and through laceration
05:47Middle of the lip
05:48Lower two front teeth went through the skin
05:50It's okay, Lucas
05:51This is his teacher, Ms. Herrera
05:52You're safe
05:52These doctors are going to help you
05:54How did this happen?
05:55He was running
05:56Tripped and hit his chin on a curb
05:58Okay
05:59Hi Lucas, I'm Dr. Ripley
06:01We're going to take you for a little ride, okay
06:02On my count
06:03One, two, three
06:07Do you mind if I move this jacket a little bit
06:09So I can take a look?
06:11It might take him a minute to warm up
06:13Did he get overstimulated by all the Halloween costumes?
06:16Northbrook doesn't allow costumes at school
06:18Could I speak with one of you outside?
06:22Of course
06:23Thanks guys
06:25Lucas
06:27I don't even know what to call it
06:28He became extremely agitated and tried running away from school
06:32Thank God he tripped
06:33Northbrook Academy is on a very busy road
06:36If he had run into the street, I don't know what would have happened
06:39Ms. Herrera, are you aware that you're bleeding?
06:41What?
06:43It's just a small cut
06:44I didn't think it was that bad
06:45What happened?
06:46Get away!
06:49Lucas, Lucas
06:50I'm not going to hurt you, okay?
06:51I'm a doctor, I'm here to help
06:52No, you're not a doctor
06:53You're all the bad people
06:55The bad people?
06:57The monsters!
06:59You're all monsters!
07:14So the baby is measuring right where it should be
07:17One thing I did want to mention is the nuchal translucency is on the high end of normal
07:21Uh, what's the measurement?
07:24It's, uh, 3.0
07:25An increase in the NT
07:26That can be a sign of chromosomal and genetic abnormalities, right?
07:31Yes, but given that all of Hannah's blood work was normal, I'm really not stressed about it
07:35Oh, I'm glad you're not, but I am stressing
07:37Uh, what can we do for this?
07:40Um, nothing
07:41At the moment, we can bring Hannah back in a few weeks for an early anatomy scan
07:45Is that the game plan? Watch and wait?
07:47I mean, that is what I would recommend for my own patient, so
07:50I mean, I don't think it's necessary at this point, but we could discuss doing an amniocentesis to
07:56No, no, no
07:57Sorry, no
07:59Uh, my non-invasive prenatal testing and genetic carrier screenings were both normal, so
08:04So what about the genetic issues that don't show up on those tests?
08:08Can you diagnose those conditions with an amnio?
08:14Yes
08:15Yes, but it is also totally overkill at this moment
08:20Totally
08:20And it's not worth the risk, trust me, I'm an OB
08:25Okay, all right, all right
08:27But you can't always use the trust me, I'm an OB, I know best card
08:31Okay, well then how about the it's my body and I'm not doing it card, is that okay?
08:36Cool, cool, cool
08:37Well, I think that's everything, do either of you guys have any other questions?
08:42No
08:42For me?
08:43Thank you, Dr. Marvell
08:47So, why do you think Lucas attacked you with scissors?
08:51He didn't attack me
08:53Well, then how would you characterize what happened?
08:55He was terrified, trying to protect himself
08:59Right, terrified of?
09:01Me
09:02Yeah
09:03Any history of mental illness you know about?
09:06No, not to my knowledge at least
09:08Okay, no recent injuries or any kind of health issues?
09:13Lately, Lucas has just been a bit more subdued, down in the dumps, like not quite himself
09:21Interesting, and how long ago did you start to notice that?
09:25A few days ago
09:26We had parent-teacher conferences on Friday, I was going to check in with his foster parents then
09:30Oh, how long has Lucas been in foster care?
09:33Since he was six, he's been with his current foster parents, Tim and Lisa, for about a year, I think
09:39I've been reaching out to them, but it just keeps going to voicemail
09:43And does he seem pretty happy with them, you think?
09:46It's hard to say, I mean, Lucas is one of those kids who
09:50Rarely complains about anything, so even if he wasn't happy, I'm not sure he'd tell me
09:55Okay
09:56You know what? It's good to know
09:57Thank you, Miss Rivera, this has all been really helpful
10:01Of course, of course
10:02Lucas is just such a sweet boy, I really hate to see him like this
10:06We are going to get to the bottom of this, I promise you
10:10Thank you
10:14Mitch, how's he doing?
10:16I'm pretty freaked out
10:18What do you think's going on? Early onset schizophrenia?
10:21That'd be very early, just highly unusual, it doesn't really align with the presentation
10:26Teacher just told me that he hasn't really been himself the last few days, I'm just wondering,
10:31I don't know, if there's a trigger in there somewhere
10:32I, uh, I did see in his chart that, uh, he's in foster care
10:37Yeah, he just told me
10:39I'm gonna let him chill out for a bit and then just, I don't know, go back in and see
10:43if I can get him to talk to me, okay?
10:45Yeah
10:49Geez, another body
10:51Oh, that room's giving me the heebie-jeebies
10:53I think there's a spirit of the deceased hanging out in there
10:56Okay, I'll bite
10:57Why would anybody hang around treatment five longer than they have to?
11:01They're looking to take more spirits with them, obviously
11:03The last three patients we put in there have died
11:05No, that's not
11:06Mm-hmm
11:07Oh, actually, yeah, you're right
11:09Yeah, my gut says it's the spirit of Mr. Crowley
11:12You know, that elderly gentleman who said I looked like a young Goldie Hawn
11:16And then he died of MI
11:17Didn't he have cataracts in both eyes?
11:19Okay, that's beside the point, Dr. Archer
11:23Trauma three is open, what's going on?
11:25This is my roommate, Jenny Rizelle
11:26Her period's been really bad and she hasn't left our dorm room in two days
11:29I went to go check on her after my intro to econ class this morning and she was burning up
11:33I called my dad, who's a doctor
11:35Oh, he's a dermatologist, but he knows the basic stuff
11:37And he said that I should call Campus Health
11:39But Jenny kept saying no and she was fine and she wouldn't let me call
11:42You did the right thing bringing her in
11:43We're gonna help you into the bed, okay, Jenny?
11:45Here, let me give you my number
11:46I'll get it from you, Amy
11:47Let's give the doctor some room
11:48Bye, Jenny
11:49You're better
11:50Temps 102.3
11:52She's tachycardic
11:52Heart rate's 143, BP 80 over 45
11:55I'm gonna palpate your abdomen, Jenny
11:57Let me know if anything feels tender
12:01Her uterus is enlarged, ultrasound
12:04Let's give four of morphine and hang a liter of saline
12:11Her endometrial lining is thickened and I'm seeing pockets that could be air
12:15Endometritis
12:16Or pelvic inflammatory disease
12:18Let's order a sepsis panel and an HCG test
12:21In the meantime, start Zosyn IV and Lupin Dr. Asher
12:24We're gonna get you feeling better, Jenny
12:30You want some jam and butter on your toast?
12:35Maybe just some butter, huh?
12:40Oh, oh
12:43Okay
12:45Never mind
12:51You know, I went to see Isaiah in his preschool recital on Tuesday
12:57And you gotta see the little three-piece suit that Tara had him in
13:02You know, I think I have a picture for you
13:05Let's see
13:05It was so ridiculous, but so stinkin' cute
13:11Look at this
13:12Isn't he something?
13:16Ooh, who is that handsome little guy?
13:20Hey, Tameka
13:21He looks like a mini U-bird
13:23This is our grandson, Isaiah
13:26Oh, he is a cutie pie
13:29Yeah, and believe me, he knows it, uses it to get anything he wants out of his mother
13:38How are we doing today, Bert?
13:40Fine
13:44Who's your grandson dressing up as?
13:46Um, you know, one of those, uh, superheroes all of his little friends have obsessed on
13:53I-I can't remember the name
13:56Look, you don't want to spill that
13:57Don't touch that
13:58I just wanted to move it out of the way so you won't spill it
14:03Bert
14:04You could just leave that on the table
14:05Come on, let's leave this on the table
14:07Give me the plate, okay?
14:08I don't want you here!
14:11You think I'll want to be?
14:22I don't want you here, I don't want you to leave this on the table
14:38Morning, Sharon
14:39Hey
14:41I know I look a mess
14:43No, no, you look, you look fine, you okay?
14:47Any dementia in their family?
14:49Yeah, my uncle Paul, my mother's brother
14:51Do you remember the anger phase?
14:54Oh, he would rage at my poor mother
14:57Using all sorts of very strong language we didn't even think he knew
15:01You won't ever hear me call my ex-husband a saint
15:06But one thing he never did
15:10Not once during the entirety
15:13Of our marriage
15:15Did he raise his voice at me?
15:18You know, when Bert got mad, he got softer
15:21Not louder
15:24I could count on one hand the number of times he raised his voice
15:28And they've all happened since his diagnosis
15:31I'm sorry, I'm sorry
15:39But I'm just really mad at myself because
15:46I lost it
15:48I yelled back at him
15:49Okay, Sharon, listen to me
15:50You are navigating highly stressful uncharted waters with someone who you really did not
15:57See yourself going through this with
16:00Yeah, but it's Bert going through it
16:04Yes
16:05And you're going through it too
16:08Let me get myself together
16:18Okay
16:18She definitely has endometritis, high white count, elevated procalcitonin and lactate
16:23And her roommate said she's having a bad period
16:26But her pregnancy test is positive
16:28And I didn't see an embryo on her ultrasound
16:32Yeah, her thick and uterine lining is likely from retained product
16:36She's having a miscarriage
16:43Lucas, how are you feeling?
16:44No, no, please go away
16:45Lucas, I'm not going to hurt you
16:47Get away
16:47I promise I'm not going to hurt you, buddy
16:49Hey, do you think you could describe to me what it is that you're seeing that's making you so upset?
16:54Please don't hurt me
16:55Go away, go away
16:57Hey, you know what?
16:58Miss Herrera told me that you like to draw
17:02And that you're actually pretty good at it
17:04Is that true?
17:04Go away
17:06Okay, well, you know something I've learned about drawing is that
17:10If I draw a picture of something that I'm scared of, it can make it quite a lot less scary
17:15for me
17:16Do you think you might be able to draw a picture for me?
17:18You can just use my iPad, draw with your finger?
17:21You think you might be able to do that for me?
17:24Okay
17:25You go, don't look at me
17:26I'm just going to hand it to you
17:48Wow
17:51Who is this?
17:57It's you.
18:03The pregnancy hormone can take several weeks to leave your body,
18:07which is why you still have a positive pregnancy test.
18:10Jenny, is there anyone you want to call?
18:12Maybe your parents?
18:13No.
18:14Please, you can't tell my parents.
18:16Okay, I won't.
18:17You're an adult, and I won't tell them or anyone else without your permission.
18:25Am I in trouble?
18:26We just, we want to get you feeling better, okay?
18:29The reason you're sick is because your uterus has retained parts of your placenta,
18:32which has become infected.
18:34You will need surgery to remove this.
18:36I need surgery?
18:37Yes.
18:38But it is a minor and very safe procedure.
18:40In the meantime, I would like to collect vaginal cultures
18:44so we can pinpoint the bacteria that's causing your infection.
18:46Is that okay with you?
18:48Hmm.
18:49Okay.
18:51Okay, let me just grab a nurse to assist.
18:58Keep looking at the wall.
18:59Keep looking at the wall.
19:00I'm just sliding over here.
19:01Okay.
19:02Now look.
19:03You don't have to look at me,
19:04and I promise I won't move any closer.
19:08Lucas,
19:10across my heart, I'm not a monster,
19:12but I absolutely believe that when you look at me,
19:15that's what you see
19:16because I think that your brain is playing a trick on you.
19:20A trick?
19:21Yeah.
19:22And I'm going to prove that to you right now
19:24by taking a picture of myself.
19:30Now I'm going to show it to you.
19:32Here.
19:32Here comes the iPad.
19:34It's okay.
19:38And that's you?
19:39Yeah.
19:40Not a monster, right?
19:43No.
19:46Okay, Jenny,
19:47so you're going to feel my hand on your thigh.
19:49Okay.
19:50Is that a key one?
19:52All right, now you're going to feel a little pressure.
19:55I know.
19:56I'm sorry.
19:57I know that the infection makes it extra,
20:01extra tender,
20:01so I will be gentle.
20:05Dr. Asher, are you ready for the swab?
20:08Dr. Asher.
20:13Um, yeah, sorry.
20:14I just...
20:15Culture swab, please.
20:22Okay.
20:25Okay, I will be right back.
20:26Wait, wait, where are you going?
20:28It's okay.
20:28I'll be right back, I promise.
20:30I promise.
20:35Jenny's pelvic exam revealed a second-degree perineal tear,
20:38and I saw umbilical cord coming from her cervix.
20:42I felt like something was off with her demeanor,
20:44but I wasn't sure if she was in shock or hiding something.
20:46Do you know how far along she was?
20:48Based on the size of the tear in the cord,
20:50I suspect close to full term.
21:01And she won't tell you what she did with the baby?
21:04She won't even admit there was a baby.
21:06Well, if she delivered days ago
21:08and left the newborn somewhere,
21:10it...
21:11it could still be alive.
21:13I'm very much in need of medical attention.
21:15Okay, I don't see any way around it.
21:17I have to report this to CPD.
21:19We need to find that baby.
21:22Okay, so what do we do with Jenny in the interim?
21:24Antibiotics alone won't clear up the infection,
21:26and now she's refusing surgery.
21:28Well, we have to honor her wishes.
21:29But if her condition worsens
21:31and she becomes incapacitated,
21:34then the hospital should assume decision-making authority
21:37over her medical care.
21:39Agreed.
21:40You're welcome.
21:42What I'm thinking right now
21:43is that Lucas is suffering
21:45from something called
21:47prosopometamorphopsia,
21:48or PMO for short.
21:50Colloquially known as, believe it or not,
21:53demon face syndrome.
21:54Yeah, well, that's certainly accurate.
21:57Yeah.
21:57Very rare neurological disorder of visual perception.
22:01So this isn't a hallucination.
22:03Exactly.
22:04It's a distortion,
22:05which is a very different thing.
22:07Now, for some people,
22:09it only occurs with a real, live human being, right?
22:12Not 2D imagery.
22:13Sure enough,
22:14when I showed Lucas a picture of my face,
22:16it looked completely normal to him.
22:17So what triggers PMO?
22:19You know, we know so little about it,
22:21but I would like to get him an MRI
22:23to rule out the most serious known cause,
22:26which is traumatic brain injury.
22:27Hmm.
22:28You think something might have happened
22:30at his foster home,
22:31an injury that wasn't reported?
22:33I sure hope not.
22:35What the hell?
22:37No, no.
22:44So how the hell did this happen?
22:46Mr. Crowley.
22:49Who?
22:49The spirit haunting this room.
22:51And we're done here.
22:57Hey.
22:57Hi.
22:58I'm on hold with insurance
22:59waiting to fight with them over my latest claim.
23:01Hashtag prosthetic problems, am I right?
23:04Your costume for tonight.
23:05Thank you very much.
23:07Hello?
23:08Hello?
23:09Hello?
23:09Yes, I have my policy number.
23:11It's on my insurance card,
23:13which is...
23:15Damn it.
23:16It's at home.
23:17Come on, baby.
23:18We gotta go right now.
23:19But you said I could have a snack.
23:21I know.
23:21I, uh, I could take you to the cafe
23:23while you run home.
23:24No, no, you're working.
23:25And Doris will text me if I'm needed.
23:27And then what you do is Amelia.
23:28I will set her up with a coloring book
23:31in the doctor's lounge.
23:32Thanks, but she can have a snack at home.
23:35I'm hungry now.
23:36Amelia, we're going.
23:39Now.
23:40No, no, don't put me back on hold.
23:41I'm getting the card.
23:43I'll see you tonight.
23:44Yeah.
23:49Oh, Daniel.
23:51Hey.
23:52What's up?
23:53Um, I forgot to wish my dearest friend
23:55a happy birthday this morning.
23:57You did?
23:58Maybe, uh, your dearest friend
24:00ain't so unhappy you forgot.
24:01Well, happy Halloween birthday anyway.
24:05Uh, did I see Howie and Franklin
24:08wandering around here earlier?
24:11You sure did.
24:12Gifted me a pricey set of golf clubs.
24:14made me blow out a candle
24:15on a damn brand muffin.
24:17Well, it sounds like they want
24:19their old med school pal
24:20to join them in retirement.
24:21They're so excited about it all, you know?
24:24I find it depressing.
24:26Yeah, but it could be
24:27your glorious third act.
24:29You know, I guess we have to ask ourselves
24:31what we want to do
24:33with the time we have left.
24:34I clearly have to change my thinking.
24:36You know, I certainly don't want to
24:38outlast my useless around here.
24:40Are you kidding?
24:40We're the glue holding this thing together.
24:43Damn right we are.
24:43You're damn right we are.
24:46And you're going to figure it out
24:47and so am I.
24:48I'm taking your word for it.
24:49Okay.
24:49How's your day going?
24:51Uh, I had a rough morning with Bert.
24:55What happened?
24:57I'll tell you some other time.
25:00You want to grab a coffee later?
25:02Yeah.
25:04Hey, uh, Lucas's foster parents
25:06are waiting in your office.
25:07I'm over right now.
25:09Yeah.
25:10I'm sorry we couldn't get here sooner.
25:12We were up visiting our eldest daughter
25:14in Milwaukee.
25:15Well, the good news is
25:16no evidence of brain injury
25:18or structural abnormalities
25:20of any kind on Lucas's scans.
25:22Oh, thank God.
25:23So then what's causing these distortions?
25:25I was kind of hoping
25:26that we could figure that out together.
25:28His teacher said that he hasn't been,
25:31I don't know, himself recently?
25:34Yeah, he doesn't seem
25:34to be sleeping well, right?
25:36He's exhausted in the morning.
25:38And I think he's having
25:39some sensitivity to light.
25:41He keeps squinting
25:42and covering his eyes,
25:44saying his head hurts.
25:45Hmm.
25:46I just chalked it up
25:47to a growth spurt.
25:48It's so tough to tell with Lucas,
25:49you know, if something's really wrong.
25:51He's such a sweet kid.
25:52He doesn't want to be a bother.
25:53You know, that could be
25:54a pediatric migraine.
25:56And those are much less intense
25:58than the adult version.
26:00But absolutely can be caused
26:02by lack of sleep
26:03and are a known trigger for PMO.
26:06Will the distortions go away?
26:08They will.
26:09And that can take anywhere
26:10from a few hours to a few weeks.
26:13But unfortunately,
26:14they're very likely to return,
26:16which is why I'd like to refer you
26:17to a colleague of mine
26:18who is a very skilled neuropsychiatrist,
26:20and he can help you
26:21put together a treat.
26:24What's wrong?
26:25We'll certainly make the appointment,
26:27but, well, we don't actually know
26:30how much longer
26:31we're going to be in Lucas' life.
26:33Yeah, we got a call
26:33from his caseworker, Sheila,
26:35last week.
26:36His biological parents
26:37are trying to regain custody.
26:38We're going to fight it.
26:39We've started the process
26:41of filing for adoption.
26:42Okay.
26:43You happen to know
26:44why Lucas was put
26:46in foster care initially?
26:48Both of his parents are addicts.
26:50Yeah, they claim
26:50they're sober now,
26:51that they're turning
26:52their lives around,
26:53and, you know,
26:54maybe they are, but...
26:55Right, right.
26:57You think there's any chance
26:58that Lucas might know
27:00that he might be aware
27:01that his biological parents
27:02are trying to get him back?
27:02No, no.
27:03He doesn't know anything.
27:04We didn't want to scare him
27:06unnecessarily.
27:07Okay.
27:07Look, I'm going to hit the book,
27:09see if I can figure out
27:11a way to get Lucas
27:12a bit of immediate relief.
27:14Okay?
27:15That'd be great.
27:16Thanks.
27:17I didn't...
27:18I didn't deliver a baby.
27:19Jenny, Dr. Asher saw
27:20the umbilical cord,
27:22which means you must have cut it,
27:23otherwise it would still be...
27:24No, I didn't.
27:24Please, I just want to leave.
27:26I know you want to leave.
27:26I know you're really scared
27:27right now, but the...
27:29Oh, my God, it's happening.
27:31Let me take a look, okay?
27:35What's going on?
27:35She's starting a hemorrhage.
27:36Okay, Jenny, listen to me.
27:37If we don't operate now,
27:38you will bleed to death.
27:39I don't want to die.
27:40Okay, then let us
27:41take you to surgery, okay?
27:43Okay.
27:44Call the OR.
27:45Jenny, listen to me.
27:46I know that you're afraid
27:47of getting in trouble,
27:48but the best thing you can do
27:49right now is tell the truth.
27:50Where's that baby?
27:52I buried her.
27:56I'm sorry, I'm so so sorry.
28:06He went into V-fib.
28:07Crowley's at it again.
28:09Charge at 120.
28:11Charge.
28:12Clear.
28:14No pulse.
28:15Resuming compression.
28:16Charge.
28:16200 milligram of epi, please.
28:18Clear.
28:21No pulse.
28:22Have you had around 300 milligrams?
28:24Charge 200.
28:25Charged.
28:26Clear.
28:29Back to sinus rhythms.
28:31See?
28:32No such thing as ghosts.
28:35What is that?
28:36What happens?
28:37What is that?
28:38What's going on?
28:38I don't know.
28:39Hey, we lost power in a year.
28:42Dead.
28:43You can't tell me that wasn't...
28:47Coincidence.
28:48That's...
28:49That's...
28:50That's...
28:50Ghosts.
28:53See, you know,
28:54green tinted glasses help with light sensitivity.
28:57So,
28:58ophthalmology had a bunch of these lying around,
29:00but it turns out
29:02they also help reduce distortions
29:06caused by PLO.
29:08Open your eyes, pal.
29:13Hey there.
29:15I'm not scary looking anymore.
29:16You look just like your picture.
29:18Just, uh,
29:19a little more handsome, right?
29:21Huh?
29:25You look like Tim and Lisa again.
29:27Well,
29:27we are Tim and Lisa.
29:30Honey,
29:32can I ask you something?
29:33Are you having trouble sleeping?
29:36We won't get mad, okay?
29:37Remember what we always tell you.
29:38If you can't sleep
29:39or if you're having bad dreams,
29:41you can always come wake us up.
29:43Right.
29:44Lucas,
29:44I'm just curious.
29:46I've been wondering
29:47if maybe you might have heard
29:48Tim and Lisa
29:49talking to your caseworker, Sheila,
29:52about possibly going back
29:53to live with your...
29:54with your mom and dad?
29:57Baby, it's okay if you did.
29:59You can tell us.
30:00Yeah.
30:02I heard you crying
30:03and I just wanted to see
30:04what was wrong.
30:05I know I'm supposed
30:06to knock on your door,
30:07but...
30:09But what?
30:11I didn't want to
30:12because that would be a mistake.
30:15A mistake?
30:16Why would that be a mistake?
30:18Because you're not supposed
30:19to bother people
30:19when the door's closed.
30:21Who told you that?
30:24Your mom and dad tell you that?
30:27What else did they tell you
30:28was a mistake?
30:29I'm not supposed
30:30to talk about it.
30:31Lucas, look at me.
30:33You are not going to get
30:34in any trouble, buddy.
30:34You are safe here.
30:36Do you understand me?
30:38You won't tell them.
30:39I swear.
30:48being too loud.
30:50Cleaning up my toys
30:53or sneaking food.
30:57And, um...
30:58What would mom and dad do
31:01if you made a mistake?
31:05They would scream
31:06really bad words at me.
31:09They'd time it in my bed.
31:11They won't let me have
31:12anything to eat.
31:14Oh, baby.
31:16I don't want to go back there.
31:18Don't make me go back there.
31:19It's okay.
31:20I don't want to stay here.
31:22It's okay.
31:29Hey.
31:30How'd it go?
31:30True dream of well.
31:31We were able to move
31:32the placenta
31:33and stop the bleeding.
31:33Good.
31:34I wanted to let you know
31:35we located the baby.
31:36And?
31:37As we expected,
31:38she was deceased.
31:40Any signs indicating
31:41how the baby died?
31:42Stillborn.
31:42Emmy believes she died
31:43in utero weeks ago.
31:45So,
31:45what does that mean
31:46for Jenny,
31:47legally speaking?
31:49Legally,
31:50it doesn't take
31:50all charges off the table.
31:51That's at the discretion
31:52of the ASA,
31:53but it does remove
31:54the most serious one.
31:55I'm going to come by tomorrow
31:56to talk with her again.
31:57That is,
31:58if she hasn't lawyered up
31:58by then.
32:00Which, honestly,
32:01Hannah,
32:02I would advise her to do.
32:04Good.
32:12Hey.
32:16Are your throats
32:17going to feel
32:18a little sore
32:18from the tube?
32:21Did they find her?
32:25Yeah.
32:27I didn't know
32:28what to do.
32:32When she came out,
32:33she wasn't...
32:36There was no sound.
32:37Okay, Jenny,
32:38I just want you to rest,
32:39okay?
32:40I tried.
32:42I know CPR.
32:44I took a class
32:45and I tried,
32:46but she wasn't breathing
32:47and I couldn't.
32:50I just...
32:51She was stillborn, Jenny.
32:55She had already died
32:56in your uterus
32:57weeks earlier.
33:00But if I had called 911,
33:03they could have shocked
33:03her heart.
33:04No, no, no, no.
33:07There's nothing
33:08you could have done.
33:10Nothing.
33:13Can I ask...
33:16Why didn't you ever
33:17go see a doctor
33:19to discuss your options?
33:21I didn't know
33:22I was pregnant.
33:25I mean,
33:26not...
33:27not for sure.
33:28I...
33:28I never took
33:29a pregnancy test.
33:31Why not?
33:31I didn't...
33:34Because...
33:35That would have
33:36made it real.
33:52You talked to DCFS?
33:55I did.
33:57Reunification
33:57with Lucas' bio parents
33:59is being put on hold
34:00pending a thorough investigation.
34:02If that goes away,
34:03I think it will.
34:04Kids can have themselves
34:06a nice new set of parents.
34:07Come on.
34:09You're a realized superhero.
34:10You banished the monsters.
34:12Sure did.
34:13Eight years too late.
34:22Hey.
34:24I thought your shift
34:24was over hours ago.
34:26It was.
34:28What are you still doing here?
34:30Doesn't feel like
34:31going home yet.
34:32Yeah.
34:34One of those days, huh?
34:36Want to talk about it?
34:38I don't.
34:38Thanks.
34:39All right.
34:40Do you, uh...
34:42Want to come by
34:43and help me pass out candy?
34:45You pass out candy?
34:47As opposed to, what?
34:49Bopping for apples?
34:51Turning off all the lights
34:52and pretending no one's home.
34:53Yeah.
34:54Miss my yearly opportunity
34:56to eat my weight miniature Snickers?
34:58No way.
34:59Okay.
34:59Well, Snickers, fine.
35:01I mean, I've just,
35:03I've been super craving chocolate lately.
35:06Must be having a girl
35:07you're craving sweets.
35:08Yeah, that's just
35:09an old lifestyle.
35:11So what do you think
35:12you're having?
35:13No clue.
35:14Really?
35:14You don't have like
35:15a sixth sense
35:15or anything like that?
35:16My gosh.
35:17Leanne was positive.
35:19She knew we were having
35:20a boy by week six.
35:21Yeah, I really just
35:22haven't thought
35:22too much about it.
35:25Huh.
35:30What's...
35:31Huh?
35:33I just find it interesting,
35:34that's all.
35:36It's just the...
35:36Why are you analyzing me?
35:38Oh, Hannah,
35:39I'm not analyzing you.
35:39Yes, you are.
35:41Look, if you want to find out
35:42the sex so bad,
35:43go ahead and do it.
35:44We don't need to make
35:44every decision together.
35:45Oh, please.
35:46I'm not trying to...
35:46Look, I'm just going to go home.
35:47I feel like we could
35:48use a little space.
36:06Can you share some
36:07of your candy with me?
36:08Yeah.
36:08Yeah?
36:09The lights are really nice.
36:11Mmm.
36:11I like your costume.
36:12Want to go with us?
36:13Can I, Mom?
36:14Oh, don't you want
36:15to stay with us, honey?
36:16I want to go with them.
36:17Please?
36:19Uh, okay.
36:20But you need to stay
36:22where I can see you
36:23at all times.
36:24If you can't see me,
36:25you've gone too far.
36:26Okay.
36:28Come on!
36:30Not too fast, Amelia.
36:31Slow down.
36:33You should be fine.
36:35I'm not exactly running yet,
36:37and Amelia moves fast.
36:39Well, I got eyes on her.
36:40I have to see her.
36:46You don't trust me?
36:49No.
36:49I don't trust me.
36:54I swear,
36:54I wasn't always such a
36:55helicopter parent.
36:57Then my daughter
36:58fell down a literal well,
37:00and now...
37:02I never want to let her
37:03out of my sight.
37:05I'm afraid if I look away
37:06for even a second,
37:09the ground will
37:10swallow her up again.
37:14That's what it looked like
37:15when she fell.
37:16I couldn't see the well
37:18at first.
37:18It was too dark.
37:20It looked like
37:22the earth
37:24just suddenly
37:26swallowed her whole.
37:28I can't imagine
37:29anything more terrifying.
37:32And obviously,
37:33this relieves only,
37:35at most,
37:360.0001%
37:38of the crushing
37:39responsibility
37:40you must feel
37:41at all times.
37:43Just so you know,
37:45whenever I'm around,
37:48I got eyes on her, too.
37:50I'm not gonna let
37:51anything out.
37:53I know.
37:56I know you won't.
38:04Where is she, though?
38:06She's right there.
38:09Thank goodness.
38:11Come on.
38:12Hey, Kip,
38:13I'm sorry,
38:14but I'm just not
38:14gonna make it tonight.
38:15It's been a long day,
38:16and I'm beat,
38:17so tell Gemma
38:18that I'm looking forward
38:18to meeting her another time,
38:19okay?
38:20Tell her yourself.
38:21What are you doing here?
38:23I knew you'd bail,
38:24so I came here
38:24to personally escort you.
38:26Kip, you can't just...
38:26No, no, no, no, Kip,
38:27anything, okay?
38:28You're coming.
38:30Katie, I am in love.
38:31For the first time
38:32in my life,
38:33I am buying paper towels
38:34and toilet paper in bulk.
38:36That's Gemma's doing.
38:38I'm thinking
38:39and planning ahead
38:40because I actually
38:41see a future
38:42with this woman.
38:45You do seem different.
38:48Grown-up job,
38:49grown-up relationship.
38:51Mm-hmm,
38:51that's the Gemma effect.
38:52And I suppose
38:53figuring out
38:54that I'm not hurtling
38:55towards a early death
38:56doesn't hurt either,
38:57although I see
38:58that it's had
38:58the opposite effect
38:59on you.
39:00I mean,
39:01having one-night stands
39:02with the Quick Eats guy,
39:03it's not really your style.
39:04Yeah, well,
39:05you don't really know
39:06anything about my style.
39:07I think that we both
39:08know each other better
39:09than we'd like to admit.
39:12I'm really happy for you.
39:14Then rally
39:14and come to the bar
39:15for an hour.
39:18Fine.
39:19All right.
39:19Let's go to the bar
39:20and meet your future
39:21first wife.
39:24And if you do want
39:25Mom's ring to propose...
39:27Forget about that.
39:28I think that was
39:29a tad premature.
39:31I don't want to creep Gemma out
39:32by proposing two months in.
39:35True.
39:35You should let your
39:36action figure collection
39:37do that for you.
39:38Mm-hmm.
39:39Besides,
39:40you should keep the ring
39:42for when you get married.
39:44That's what Mom
39:45would have wanted.
39:48Thank you, Annette Banana.
39:50You were such
39:51a lifesaver.
39:52I just feel
39:52so much better
39:53having somebody
39:54in the house, you know?
39:55Everything in the fridge
39:56is yours,
39:56except, of course,
39:57my mu-mu guy pan.
39:59That's right, baby.
40:00No mu-gu for you-gu.
40:01All right.
40:02I'll call you from Miami.
40:04Love ya.
40:05Have fun at that conference.
40:06Oh, I can't wait.
40:08Oh, wait.
40:09Hold on.
40:11I think it's a call
40:12from Bert's facility.
40:15This is Sharon Goodwin.
40:19Tameka?
40:22What?
40:24Is he okay?
40:27Did you call
40:27the paramedics?
40:30All right.
40:31I'm on my way.
40:32I'll see you shortly.
40:33What happened?
40:34I don't exactly know.
40:35Bert had a fall.
40:36I gotta go.
40:38Should I come?
40:39I'm serious.
40:39Your flight.
40:40Daniel, please
40:41don't change your plans.
40:42Let me see what's going on
40:43and I'll keep you posted.
40:45Okay.
40:45You promise?
40:46I promise.
40:49I heard him fall.
40:50I don't know
40:51if he tripped over something.
40:52Did he hit his head?
40:53I think so.
40:54There's a gash in the back.
40:55And he was already
40:57unconscious when you got to him?
40:58No, no.
40:59He was still opening
41:00his eyes at first
41:01and then he stopped.
41:32I did a gash in the back.
41:32I did it.
