00:00You
00:05Last couple months have been amazing, but we don't even know what this is yet. Whatever this is. I'm in
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
04:47Ta-da!
04:48Whoa!
04:49Oh, here we go
04:51Shippers
04:51Guys, they're gorgeous
04:53Are they fancy?
04:55That's my name
04:57Guys, I 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
05:36It's all right, pal
05:37No rest for the weary
05:38Actually, Dr. Charles, you need a two
05:40It's a possible psych issue
05:41Hmm
05:42Trick 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?
06:03On my count
06:03One, two, three
06:07Lucas, do you mind if I move this jacket a little
06:09Just so 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, uh, 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 gonna hurt you, okay?
06:51I'm a doctor, I'm here to help
06:52No, you're not
06:52You're not a doctor
06:53You're one of 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
07:22Uh, what's the measurement?
07:24It's, uh, 3.0
07:25An increase in the NT, that 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
07:49So, I 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
07:58Uh, 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. Martha
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 rarely complains about anything
09:51So 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
09:58Thank you, Miss Rivera, this has all been really helpful
10:01Of course, of course
10:02Lucas is just such a sweet boy
10:04I really hate to see him like this
10:06We are going to get to the bottom of this, I promise you
10:10Thank you
10:13Mitch
10:14How's he doing?
10:16I'm pretty freaked out
10:18What do you think is going on? Early onset schizophrenia?
10:21That would be very early, just highly unusual
10:24It doesn't really align with the presentation
10:26The teacher just told me that he hasn't really been himself the last few days
10:30I'm just wondering, I 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, she 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
10:44Okay?
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?
11:00They'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
11:22We need some help over here
11:23Trauma three is open
11:24What's going on?
11:25This is my roommate, Jenny Rozelle
11:26Her period's been really bad
11:28And 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
11:32And she was burning up
11:33I called my dad who's a doctor
11:35Oh, he's a dermatologist
11:36But 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
11:41And 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
11:49Feel better
11:50Temps 102.3
11:52She's tachycardic
11:53Heart rate's 143
11:54BP 80 over 45
11:55I'm gonna palpate your abdomen, Jenny
11:57Let me know if anything feels tender
12:01Her uterus is enlarged
12:03Ultrasound
12:03Let's give four of morphine
12:05And hang a liter of saline
12:11Her endometrial lining is thickened
12:13And 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
12:23And 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
13:06It was so ridiculous, but so stinking cute
13:11Look at this
13:13Any something?
13:17Who is that handsome little guy?
13:20Hey, Tamika
13:21He looks like a mini-you, Bert
13:23This is our grandson, Isaiah
13:26He is a cutie pie
13:29Yeah, and believe me
13:30He knows it
13:31Uses it to get anything he wants out of his mother
13:38How are we doing today, Bert?
13:41Fine
13:44Who's your grandson dressing up as?
13:47Um, 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?
14:09I don't want you here!
14:11You think I'll want to be?
14:16You think I'll want to be?
14:37Morning, Sharon
14:39Hey
14:41Uh, I know I look a mess
14:43No, no, you look-you look fine, you okay?
14:46Uh, any 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
15:00You won't ever hear me call my ex-husband a saint
15:06But one thing he never did
15:08Not
15:11Once during the entirety of our marriage
15:15Did he raise his voice at me?
15:18You know, when Bert got mad, he got softer, not 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
15:31Including this morning
15:34I'm sorry, I'm sorry
15:35And you know that's not even why I'm upset
15:40I'm just really mad at myself because
15:46I lost it, I yelled back at him
15:49Okay, Sharon, listen to me
15:51You are navigating highly stressful uncharted waters with someone who you really did not
15:57See yourself going through this with
16:00Yeah, but
16:01It's Bert going through it
16:04Yes
16:05And you're going through it too
16:08Let me get myself to get
16:10Okay
16:11Okay
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
16:37She's having a miscarriage
16:43Lucas, how 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
17:01And 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 that you might be able to draw a picture for me?
17:18You could 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
17:27You go, don't look at me
17:33You go, don't look at me
17:57it's you the pregnancy hormone can take several weeks to leave your body which
18:07is why you still have a positive pregnancy test Jenny is there anyone
18:11you want to call maybe your parents no please you can't tell my parents okay
18:16hello you're an adult and I won't tell them or anyone else without your
18:24permission am I in trouble we just we want to get you feeling better okay the
18:29reason you're sick is because your uterus has retained parts of your placenta which
18:33has become infected you will need surgery to remove that I need surgery yes but
18:38it is a minor and very safe procedure in the meantime I would like to collect
18:43vaginal cultures so we can pinpoint the bacteria that's causing your infection
18:46is that okay with you okay okay let me just grab a nurse to assist we'll be
18:54right back keep looking at the wall keep looking at the wall I'm just sliding over
19:01here okay now look you don't have to look at me and I promise I won't move any
19:06closer Lucas cross my heart I'm not a monster but I absolutely believe that
19:14when you look at me that's what you see because I think that your brain is
19:18playing a trick on you a trick yeah and I'm going to prove that to you right now by
19:25taking a picture of myself now I'm going to show it to you here comes the iPad it's okay
19:38that's you yeah not a monster right no okay Jenny so you're going to feel my hand on your thigh
19:49okay thank you all right now you're going to feel a little pressure
19:55I know I'm sorry I know that the infection makes it extra extra tender so I will be gentle
20:05Dr. Asher you ready for the swab Dr. Asher
20:13um yeah sorry I just culture swab please
20:22okay
20:24okay I will be right back
20:26wait wait where are you going it's okay I'll be right back I promise
20:35Jenny's pelvic exam revealed a second degree perineal tear and I saw umbilical cord coming
20:40from her cervix I felt like something was off with her demeanor but I wasn't sure if she was in
20:45shock or hiding something do you know how far along she was based on the size of the tear and
21:01she won't tell you what she did with the baby she won't even admit there was a baby well if
21:06she
21:07delivered days ago and left the newborn somewhere it it could still be alive I'm very much in need of
21:14medical attention okay I don't see any way around it I have to report this to CPD we need to
21:20find that
21:21baby okay so what do we do with Jenny in the interim antibiotics alone won't clear up the infection and
21:26now
21:26she's refusing surgery well we have to honor her wishes but if her condition worsens and she becomes
21:32incapacitated then the hospital should assume decision-making authority over her medical care
21:39agreed thank you you're welcome what I'm thinking right now is that Lucas is suffering from something
21:45called prosopometamorphopsia or PMO for short colloquially known as believe it or not demon face
21:53syndrome yeah well that's certainly accurate yeah very rare neurological disorder of visual perception so
22:01this isn't a hallucination exactly it's a distortion which is a very different thing now some people it
22:09only occurs with a real live human being right not 2d imagery sure enough when I showed Lucas a picture
22:15of my face looked completely normal to him so what triggers PMO you know we know so little about it
22:21but I would like to get him an MRI to rule out the most serious known cause which is traumatic
22:26brain injury
22:27hmm you think something might have happened at his foster home and an injury that wasn't reported
22:33I'm sure hope not
22:35what the hell
22:43so how the hell this happened
22:45mr. Crowley
22:48who

23:43I'll see you tonight
23:44yeah
23:49oh Daniel
23:50hey
23:51what's up
23:52um I forgot to wish my dearest friend a happy birthday this morning
23:57you did
23:57maybe uh your dearest friend ain't so unhappy you forgot
24:01well happy Halloween birthday anyway
24:04thank you
24:04uh did I see Howie and Franklin wandering around here earlier
24:10you sure did
24:11gifted 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 their own med school pal to join them in retirement
24:21they're so
24:22they're so excited about it all you know
24:24I find it depressing
24:26yeah but it could be your glorious third act
24:29you know I guess we have to ask ourselves
24:31what we want to do with the time we have left
24:34I clearly have to change my thinking
24:36you know
24:37certainly don't want to outlast my useless around here
24:39are you kidding we're the glue holding this thing together
24:42damn right we are
24:43you're damn right we are
24:45and you're gonna figure it out and 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
24:54what happened
24:57I'll tell you some other time
24:59do you want to grab a coffee later
25:02yeah
25:04hey uh Lucas's foster parents are waiting in your office
25:07on my way right now thank you
25:09yeah
25:10I'm sorry we couldn't get here sooner
25:12we were up visiting our eldest daughter in Milwaukee
25:15well the good news is no evidence of brain injury or structural abnormalities of any kind on Lucas's scans
25:22oh thank god
25:23so then what's causing these distortions
25:25I was kind of hoping that we could figure that out together
25:28his teacher said that he hasn't been
25:31I don't know himself recently
25:33yeah he doesn't seem to be sleeping well right
25:35he's exhausted in the morning
25:38and I think he's having some sensitivity to light
25:41he keeps squinting and covering his eyes
25:43saying his head hurts
25:45hmm
25:45I just chalked it up to a growth spurt
25:48it's so tough to tell with Lucas you know if something's really wrong
25:51he's such a sweet kid he doesn't want to be a bother
25:53you know that could be a pediatric migraine
25:56and those are much less intense than the adult version
26:00but absolutely can be caused by lack of sleep
26:03and are a known trigger for PMO
26:06will the distortions go away?
26:08they will and that can take anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks
26:13but unfortunately they're very likely to return
26:15which is why I'd like to refer you to a colleague of mine
26:18who is a very skilled neuropsychiatrist
26:20and he can help you put together a treat
26:24what's-what's wrong?
26:25we'll certainly make the appointment
26:27but um
26:28well we don't actually know how much longer
26:31we're gonna be in Lucas's life
26:33yeah we got a call from his caseworker Sheila last week
26:35his biological parents are trying to regain custody
26:38we're gonna fight it
26:39we've started the process of filing for adoption
26:42okay
26:43you happen to know why Lucas was put in foster care initially?
26:48both of his parents are addicts
26:50yeah they claim they're sober now
26:51that they're turning their lives around
26:53and you know maybe they are but
26:55right, right
26:56you think there's any chance that Lucas might know
27:00that he might be aware that his biological parents
27:02trying to get him back?
27:03no, no he doesn't know anything
27:04we didn't want to scare him unnecessarily
27:07okay
27:07look I'm gonna hit the book
27:09see if I can figure out
27:11a way to get Lucas a bit of immediate relief
27:14okay?
27:15that'd be great
27:15thanks
27:17I didn't-I didn't deliver a baby
27:19Jenny, Dr. Asher saw the umbilical cord
27:21which means you must have cut it
27:23otherwise it would-
27:24no I didn't, please
27:25I just want to leave
27:26I know you want to leave
27:26I know you're really scared right now

27:45Jenny, listen to me
27:46I know that you're afraid of getting in trouble

31:37as we expected she was deceased
31:40any signs indicating how the baby died
31:42stillborn
31:42emmy believes she died in utero weeks ago
31:44so
31:45what does that mean for jenny legally speaking
31:49legally it doesn't take all charges off the table
31:51that's at the discretion of the asa
31:53but it does remove the most serious one
31:55i'm going to come by tomorrow talk with her again

36:08Yeah?
36:09The lights are really nice.
36:11Mmm.
36:11I like your costume.
36:12Wanna go with us?
36:13Can I, Mom?
36:14Oh, don't you wanna stay with us, honey?
36:16I wanna go with them.
36:17Please?
36:19Uh, okay.
36:20But?
36:21You need to stay where I can see you at all times.
36:24If you can't see me, you'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, and 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 I wasn't always such a helicopter parent.
36:57Then my daughter fell down a literal well, and now...
37:02I never wanna let her out of my sight.
37:05I'm afraid if I look away for even a second, the ground will swallow her up again.
37:14That's what it looked like when she fell.
37:16I couldn't see them all at first.
37:18It was too dark.
37:20It looked like the Earth just suddenly swallowed her whole.
37:27I can't imagine anything more terrifying.
37:32And obviously, this relieves only, at most, 0.0001% of the crushing responsibility you must feel at all times.
37:43Just so you know, whenever I'm around, I got eyes on her too.
37:50I'm not gonna let anything out of her.
37:54I 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, but I'm just not gonna make it tonight.
38:15It's been a long day, and I'm beat.
38:17So, tell Gemma that I'm looking forward to meeting her another time, okay?
38:20Tell her yourself.
38:21What are you doing here?
38:23I knew you'd bail, so I came here to personally escort you.
38:26Kip, you can't just...
38:27No, no, no, no.
38:27Kip, anything.
38:28Okay?
38:28You're coming.
38:30Katie, I am in love.
38:31For the first time in my life, I am buying paper towels and toilet paper in bulk.
38:36That's Gemma's doing.
38:38I'm thinking and planning ahead because I actually see a future with this woman.
38:45You do seem different.
38:48Grown-up job, grown-up relationship.
38:51Mm-hmm.
38:51That's the Gemma effect.
38:52And I suppose figuring out that I'm not hurling towards a early death doesn't hurt either.
38:57Although, I see that it's had the opposite effect on you.
39:00I mean, having one-night stands with the Quick Eats guy, it's not really your style.
39:04Yeah, well, you don't really know anything about my style.
39:07I think that we both know each other better than we'd like to admit.
39:12I'm really happy for you.
39:14Then rally and come to the bar for an hour.
39:18Fine. All right.
39:19Let's go to the bar and meet your future first wife.
39:24And if you do want Mom's ring to propose...
39:27Forget about that.
39:28I think that was a tad premature.
39:31I don't want to creep Gemma out by proposing two months in.
39:35True.
39:35You should let your action figure collection do that for you.
39:38Mm-hmm.
39:39Besides, uh, you should keep the ring for when you get married.
39:44That's what Mom would have wanted.
39:49Thank you, Annette Banana.
39:50You are such a lifesaver.
39:52I just feel so much better having somebody in the house, you know?
39:55Everything in the fridge is yours except, of course, my mu-mu guy pan.
39:59That's right, baby.
40:00No mu-gu for you-gu.
40:01All right.
40:02I call you from Miami.
40:04Love ya.
40:05Have fun at that conference.
40:07Oh, I can't wait.
40:08Oh, wait.
40:09Hold on.
40:11I think it's a call from Bert's facility.
40:15This is Sharon Goodwin.
40:19Tameka?
40:21Uh, what?
40:24Is he okay?
40:26Well, did you call the paramedics?
40:30All right.
40:31I-I'm on my way.
40:32I'll see you shortly.
40:33What happened?
40:34Uh, I don't exactly know.
40:35Bert had a fall.
40:36I gotta go.
40:38Should I come?
40:38It sounds serious.
40:40Oh, no, your flight.
40:40Daniel, please don't change your plans.
40:42Let me see what's going on, and I'll keep you posted.
40:45Okay.
40:45You promise?
40:46I promise.
40:49I heard him fall.
40:50I don't know if he tricked over something or-
40:52Did he hit his head?
40:53I think so.
40:54There's a gash in the back.
40:55Uh, and he was already unconscious when you got to him?
40:58No, no.
40:59He was still opening his eyes at first, and then he stopped.
41:20Oh Ñ…
41:20He was breaking his head.
