Doc (US) (2025) s02e10 Episode Script
Chief
1
I had a car accident.
Lost a lot of memory.
Chief resident is up soon,
consider throwing your hat in the ring?
(MICHAEL): After Danny died,
you changed.
(AMY): Previously on "Doc". Danny
I saw my son, but then I didn't
get any more memories of him.
I just keep seeing this man.
The punishment should fit the crime.
The crime is that our dad is dead.
All I care about is do
you wanna be with me?
(MICHAEL): Nora just got
an email from you.
- I didn't send her anything.
- She was hacked.
This is out of control!
No, it's in control our control.
(AI RECORDING): My name is Amy Larsen.
And if you thought today was fun,
that was only the beginning.
(TENSE MUSIC)
(DOOR OPENS)
Doc. Hey, Doc. You got a sec?
Just clocked out and it is
2 a.m. What do you want?
Well, uh I was too
embarrassed to do this
in any official capacity,
but I think there's a problem with my
- my rear.
- Your rear?
Sort of my uh, undercarriage.
Think you could take a look?
Sure, 'cause this is how
I love to spend my free time.
Just a quick peek in the
ambo. I'm beggin' you, man.
You're gonna owe me big for this.
- All right.
- Yeah.
(TIRES SCREECH)
(DOOR SLAMS SHUT)
Hey, I need some help over here!
(TIRES SQUEALING)
Sir, if you can hear me?
You're at Westside Hospital.
We're gonna take care of you.
(VOICEMAIL): This is Nora,
leave a message.
(BEEP)
(MICHAEL): Honey, please, I get
you're upset but we're married.
We have a child. This isn't
the way to work things out.
Call me back. Or I'll
come to your mother's.
I told you I needed space.
Yeah, well, I needed to try.
I know, because you're someone
who wants to do the right thing.
- That's not what this is about!
- It is, Michael.
You have a baby,
you want to be a great father,
you know how this will look to people.
Oh, will you give me a break?
I am giving you a break!
I'm letting you go.
Some maniac sends you a recording
of what my ex-wife's therapist says,
and off of that you're leaving me?
I can't compete with
this insanity anymore.
Wh-, Nora
Don't call me. Don't come by.
I will text you
with a schedule for Simon.
(DOOR SHUTS)
(SOMBER MUSIC)
Are you sure you want
to go to work today?
Well, no, I I really
don't wanna go anywhere.
I meant because of your dad.
Yeah. I mean what else am I gonna do?
Sit around, staring at the walls
all day, thinking about him? No.
Separate cars, ten minutes apart?
(CHUCKLES)
That's exactly what
you used to say back then.
But I mean like, the exact same words.
Guess some things are just
stuck in my head.
Although, this time
I'm gonna take an Uber.
TBI and whatnot.
Well, I'll take you
however I can get you.
And IT still has nothing on the hacker?
Whoever did this had some acumen.
It has to be the angry doctor
I keep seeing in my memories.
Unfortunately, there were many people
who may have had a grudge against you.
Which is why I need
to get back into TMS.
Amy, you collapsed.
I collapsed because
I was forced to undergo
temporal interference to my brain
that was only because I was
wrongly accused
of making two mistakes.
(SONYA): Get that bulletin this
morning about the hack?
Yeah. You hear anything about it?
Pretty sure it has
something to do with Amy.
What makes you say that?
Overheard something
at Rachel's house yesterday.
Once again she creates chaos.
(WHISPERING): You idiot!
Your plan completely backfired.
No one was ever gonna think
she sent that e-mail.
And now IT
(CHARLIE): I told you,
we're fine, okay? Z's on it.
(Z): Tell her it's no sweat.
We're gonna phish our way in.
Did he just say "phish"?
(CHARLIE): Hospital put out an
all-staff bulletin about the hack.
We just piggyback on that, send
everyone a fake password reset.
One person clicks it,
the link Trojan horses us in.
- Wipe her metadata.
- Oh, my God.
Don't wig out me now,
okay? We've got a couple more
wrecking ball Amy Larsen
therapy sessions going out
to a small, but exclusive club.
Although this time
it's courtesy of AI voice replication.
Which is it? Do you want
to start practicing medicine
or chase down your hacker?
There's no reason I can't do both.
I am not taking the meds anymore.
And I am not going back to see Marks.
If it can't be Gina, then I want
to pick my own doctor this time.
That's fine, but I am not signing you up
for headaches and nosebleeds.
Well, how are we going to find this guy?
I'm a sitting duck right now.
You changed your passwords
and we're monitoring
your accounts. Joan's right,
get back to work. Let us do our jobs.
And Amy you're still an intern
and you still need supervision.
You'll be with Dr. Maitra today.
You need to get to the bottom of this.
We'll be fine.
(SONYA): And you have no idea
who dropped you off last night?
Had to be Russian agents.
Or Chinese maybe.
They abducted me in my sleep.
Is there anyone we can reach
out to? Family, friends?
No, I left them behind.
It's not safe for them to be near me.
Hi, I'm Dr. Larsen. I'll be
working alongside Dr. Maitra.
Looks like he's been
living on the streets.
Seems mentally unstable.
Dumped off last night with
a crush injury. Car sped off.
No ID. Says his name's Tim.
(TIM): Who made this food?
Hospital cafeteria.
There's no proof of that!
Can you test it for poison?
That's done at the nurse's station.
I saw it myself. If you're
hungry, it is safe to eat.
What happened to your leg?
Was this the people
that brought you here?
I told her it was enemy agents.
One of them dropped me here
and the other one took off.
They've been following me since
the night at the lake.
- What lake?
- Cedar!
We had to go on the lam!
There gave me no choice!
This isn't helpful, Dr. Larsen.
Finding out who he is
and where he's been
could be extremely helpful, Dr. Maitra.
(SONYA): Fine. I will treat
the injury in front of me.
If you want to get to
the bottom of his identity,
then go order a psych consult
and review the security footage.
Sure.
(TJ): It's the body's
defense against infection.
We're starting antibiotics while
we wait for more test results.
Antibiotics? She's in a coma.
Ma'am, good morning. I'm Dr. Heller.
You wanna catch me up?
What's going on here?
Yeah, a 16-year-old female found
unresponsive in her bed this morning,
came to the ER a few hours ago.
Regular heartbeat, breathing on
her own, but she's 9 on the GCS.
- What does that mean?
- She is in critical condition,
but we can still bring her
out of this if
we make a proper diagnosis.
Now, do we know where
she was last night?
She was in bed studying.
We were both home all night.
I'm assuming the ER ran a tox screen?
She doesn't do drugs.
That's not what this is about.
Negative for amphetamines and opiates.
Still waiting for a more
advanced screen.
What are you doing?
I told you she was home!
She doesn't do drugs!
Let's get a CAT scan,
make sure we don't have a latent bleed.
Mrs. Bauer, I understand you're worried.
I have a daughter myself.
I promise you I will treat yours
like she's my own, okay?
- I'm sorry, I just
- No, don't, don't apologize.
She's your child. You have
nothing to apologize for.
I'm going to need you to
sign for that CAT scan.
Of course. (SNIFFLES)
- (SIGHS)
- (MYSTERIOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
(KEYS CLACKING)
(PHONE RINGS)
(DETECTIVE OVER PHONE): This is
Detective Summers.
Hi, Dr. Amy Larsen from
Westside Hospital in Minneapolis.
I have a John Doe here.
I think he might be from your area.
- (DETECTIVE): Okay.
- He says his name is Tim.
(DETECTIVE): Uh, Physical description?
White male, 30 years old,
six foot, dark brown hair.
Hazel eyes. He-he mentioned
something about Cedar Lake.
(DETECTIVE): Well,
that could help, hang on.
Yeah, okay. I've got
someone who might match.
Name's Timothy A. Stern.
He'd be 33 years old.
Last seen at that lake.
I tell you what, I'm gonna
text you his photo.
Oh, great. Thanks.
(PHONE CHIMES)
(AMY): Yeah, that's him.
(DETECTIVE): Well, his wife's
gonna be happy,
he's been missing over 7 years,
and he was pronounced dead
four months ago.
(MUSIC PEAKS)
Why is it everyone's such a moron?
Oh, what happened now?
Dr. Park missed an MI.
Put a guy into cardiogenic shock.
Well, even I know people make mistakes.
Well, they shouldn't.
And they wouldn't if our
esteemed chief, Numeroff,
held people accountable.
Perhaps the new chief will do better.
Getting that job is all about
groveling and backstabbing,
and then doing it is all about
bureaucracy and politics.
And holding people accountable.
It's a moot point anyway,
'cause he's going to die
in that chair in 25 years.
No, actually, he's not. I just
had drinks with his wife last week,
and the old man's announcing
his retirement any day now.
When you walk into the IMO,
you're the smartest person in the room.
Time for you to start owning that.
I'm not sure you're seeing
the full picture here.
What do you mean?
(AMY): There's a ramp.
I saw it when his CO2 spiked.
Well, we pumped him full of
fluids, CO2 level's normal.
Yeah, but didn't you hear the crackles?
Of course, it's probably edema.
Look at the capnography curve.
There's fluid in his lungs.
Which could be caused by
so many different pathologies,
and we have no medical
history of this man.
So, what are you suggesting?
A VQ scan.
You want to take an unstable patient,
wheel him into an elevator,
take him two floors down,
then load him into a scanner bed
where he'll be practically
unmonitored for another
45 minutes, what
on your hunch?
He could die lying here of
undiagnosed pulmonary hypertension.
I want to find
out what's going on with him.
What's going on with him
is he has a crush injury,
and I don't see any symptoms
suggesting the contrary.
So, administer Lasix and start an ARB.
Fine, but I'm going to order
a blood sample.
And if it comes back with
abnormal gases, we run the VQ.
Should have just said
that in the first place.
(DOOR OPENS)
Test came back?
So her CT was negative,
but the results do show
alcohol in her system.
But she was in bed.
She wouldn't be the first
teenager to sneak out of the house.
If she was partying, she might have
taken something she shouldn't have,
or someone could have spiked her drink.
But that's what I thought
the tox screen's for?
Some things don't show up.
- Like what?
- GHB, ketamine Rohypnol.
That's a roofie.
(JAKE): It would be smart
to have her checked
for sexual assault, with your consent.
- Y you think she
- Now, there-there's no
bruising, there's no sign of a struggle,
so let's not get
ahead of ourselves, okay?
(TENDER MUSIC)
Can we please have
a female doctor do that?
Of course. That is the protocol.
It'd be really helpful if you
could help us figure out
where Shannon was last night.
Nothing on her Uber.
I don't see anything
in her texts or WhatsApp.
You have Life 360? It keeps a history.
She removed herself from it last night
so I wouldn't know where she was.
Okay, you might want to
start calling her friends.
- Beth!
- Hi, Tim.
- Hi.
- (BOTH CRYING)
Beth. Beth Beth, you can't be here.
It's-, no I can, it's okay.
No. No, listen to me.
They'll find you. See? See?
They were tracking me
and I cut out the advice.
You need to leave. You're in danger.
Okay, Tim. This is the hospital
- you're safe.
- You're okay.
No! You need to get her outta here!
Tim, can you tell me where you were?
Can you tell me what happened?
- (MONITOR ALARM BEEPS)
- What is going on here?
This is Beth, Tim's wife.
I am so sorry. I'm so sorry,
but you're scaring him.
Which I told you is not
what he needs right now.
- It's not safe! It's not safe!
- I didn't mean to upset you.
- It's not safe, Beth!
- We need you out of here now!
I don't want to go anywhere.
I'm staying here.
- Beth! It's
- We're getting her
- to a secure location.
- What is, what is that?
- (BETH): I'm right here, Tim!
- What are you putting into me?
Just something to calm you down.
I I I don't want it.
I don't I don't want it!
I don't want
(ALARM STOPS)
I thought you already gave
him meds to calm him down?
We did, but seeing you
was triggering for him,
and so, we just upped his dosage.
His condition is even
more acute than I thought.
I really don't understand.
He was fine, and then a few days
of acting kind of strange,
and then suddenly he's a schizophrenic
who disappears for seven years?
It's common for it to come on suddenly,
especially at his age.
But where's he even been all this time?
Like, living on the street?
He-he never ended up in
a shelter or in the system?
People fall through the cracks.
So, now what?
We will get him into an
inpatient program to help him
digest what happened
and cope with re-entry.
This is Dr. Larsen. She's the
one who helped us track you down.
I really can't thank you enough.
It must be so difficult for you
to get your head around this.
You don't even understand.
Um we have a son
that he doesn't even know about.
It was only a few weeks after
we found out I was pregnant
that he ran away. And everyone
thought that he got spooked,
but I kept telling them
and the police that he really
he really did love me and he
really wanted to be a father.
I'm so sorry.
But there are, there are
medications, right?
To help deal with the schizophrenia.
Let's just focus on the task at hand.
We get him healed and then we
deal with how to move forward.
Okay.
I'm sorry, I'm just really
I'm so happy he's alive
and I'm so glad someone
finally found him.
Thank you.
- (HURRIED KNOCK)
- Sorry I'm late.
I had an emergency consult
with a patient.
Our mandated weekly appointments
are meant to be taken seriously.
Wow.
It's fine. We'll make this quick.
You've started seeing
your own therapist?
I have.
And you're feeling of sound mind?
Whatever you have to say to me
- I think I already said it.
- So, I should lose my license?
It was a private session that
no one was supposed to hear.
- It was unprofessional.
- It was our strategy to help
Were you encouraging her to
try to patch things up with me,
when I have a newborn child?
- Absolutely not.
- My entire life's a sham,
so she should come in and uproot
it now that she can't remember
she's the one who undid it all?
I'm so sorry this is causing
you so much trouble.
No, I'm great. You did me a favor
since I never loved Nora anyway.
Do you want me to talk to her?
- (SCOFFS)
- Are you kidding me?
- (KNOCK AT DOOR)
- What is it?
IT wants you in the server room.
Don't worry, you'll be
getting high marks for today.
(DOOR CRASHES OPEN)
(MICHAEL): Tell me you found something.
We just flagged two new messages
from Dr. Larsen's
personal email account,
both with attachments to audio
recordings from her sessions.
How can that be when she changed
all of her passwords last night?
If the hacker
was signed into her account
and never logged off, he could
have still been in there.
This is insane. You've got to
be able to log her off remotely.
We just did.
Well, why the hell didn't
you do that last night?
The encroachment was on her
hospital e-mail,
and we were focused on
firewalling our entire
encryption network so you don't
end up with a billion-dollar lawsuit.
(SIGHS)
Well, what were the messages,
and who were they sent to?
One was to Dr. Heller.
- The other was to your daughter.
- What?
We haven't listened to the contents.
- We can't do that without
- Well, when was it sent?
Six minutes ago.
We called you right away.
- And have they been opened?
- Dr. Heller's, no.
But we can't see your daughter's
because it's a personal email account.
Well, forward me the emails
and then unsend them
from Dr. Larsen's account. Immediately.
See that spike T-wave?
It could mean elevated potassium.
So, we check for kidney malfunction.
- Mm.
- (SCREEN BLEEPS)
What the
(PHONE CHIMES)
(JOAN): Hey, hey, did your
computers just glitch?
Yeah, it looks like it's rebooting.
Probably something to do
with the IT investigation.
(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
(AMY): I don't know. I just
don't know what to do about it.
(GINA): You need to dig deeper
is what you need to do.
Because this block you have
with Katie is serious.
And it's clearly not going away.
(AMY): The thing is, no matter
how great Jake is in bed,
I'm always gonna love Michael.
I honestly can't see what
he's doing with that shrew.
(GINA): So just wait for it to implode.
Then Michael will come back.
- Come on.
- (KNOCK AT DOOR)
- (LID CLAPS CLOSED)
- Come in!
I just spoke with IT.
Whoever hacked Amy sent
a phishing e-mail
to everyone in the hospital.
Now one of the doctors opened
it and the entire system
rebooted instantaneously.
Just make sure any tests your
doctors ordered are reconfirmed.
This is madness, Michael.
This puts all of our patients in danger.
I know, but it looks like the only thing
they were interested in
is wiping Amy's metadata.
What if it's not someone
from Amy's past?
What if it's someone
working in the hospital now?
(CURIOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
(PATIENT RETCHING)
Thank you, ma'am.
I'm Dr. Clark. What's going on here?
I think someone is trying
to sweet-talk his way out of
admitting to his parents
that he has a hangover.
You slandered me, Julie,
after I poured on all that charm?
(JULIE LAUGHS)
He's never been sick like
this, even as a little kid.
You eat anything unusual?
Cafeteria pizza, fast food
burger after school.
And no drugs or alcohol?
No, that would get in
the way of basketball.
There's a playoff game on Thursday,
so we need to be out of here for that.
Okay. Well, we'll start you
on Ondansetron for the nausea.
I'll order a liver function
test to be safe,
but there's a good chance
this is just food poisoning.
Thanks.
(MONITOR BEEPING)
A computer glitch screwed
up my blood test,
so I need a new sample.
His breathing's still decompensating.
How much Lasix did you give him?
Forty milligrams.
That's not enough.
His neck veins are flat.
That's not typical for heart failure.
If you are still refusing a VQ,
we should at least give him a spiral CT.
He would only be on
the table for 15 minutes.
For the last time, we are not
moving him so you can play the hero.
You actually think that's
what this is about?
I have no idea, but if we can't row
in the same direction,
I say you bow out of this.
Do I need to remind you
of the hierarchy?
(KATIE): So, what exactly
was on the email?
Hmm I told you,
someone broke into Mom's account
and got a hold of her therapy sessions.
And what was on them?
Stuff that was really
bad for me and Nora.
Wow. Can you be more vague?
We discussed this.
Anyway, she's staying
at her mom's right now.
I don't know for how long.
Did you hear what was on that recording?
I did.
I can't blame her for leaving.
But you still won't tell me?
Well, it's actually
none of your business.
Right.
They also sent one
to you this morning.
And we managed to unsend it
and delete it,
but I wasn't sure if you saw it?
I was in classes all morning.
I don't check my phone.
Okay, good.
Why, what was on them?
I didn't listen. But don't worry.
We're gonna find out who's doing this.
I already know who's doing this.
It's Mom, right?
Ever since her accident,
everything's just falling apart again.
I swear, I won't tell your parents.
We just need to know where she was.
Yeah. Okay.
I'll try her.
I'm striking out.
(CURTAIN RASPS POWERFULLY)
There's no indication
of any kind of assault.
But there was sexual activity
at some point
within the last 12 hours.
But if someone had given her
a roofie, they could have
without there being any evidence.
If she was sneaking out on
a school night, it's,
it's much more likely that she
was going to meet a boyfriend.
Right. Then how the hell
does she end up here?
(CURTAIN RASPS OPEN FURTHER)
Is she here on her own?
(JAKE): Yeah. Yeah, father died
a few years ago.
She's the only child.
Her CO2 is ramping.
Yeah, a slight shark fin
pattern, that's new.
My other case,
he's having the same issue.
So, we think they're related?
He said there were two people,
one who dropped him here
and the other one took off.
Maybe maybe that was her?
So, how, uh how is Mrs. Hardy in 615?
Vitals look good.
I was just in there.
She seems to be on the mend.
Yeah. I suspected a PE,
so I sent her for a CT.
But the results showed
a giant lobar pneumonia.
Good catch.
Not really.
- Excuse me?
- Well, it's not a catch.
That's luck. You should have caught
the decreased breath sounds on exam.
You did examine her, right?
- Of course.
- So, you just missed it then?
- (SIGHS)
- (TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)
Dr. Miller, Dr. Clark, would
you mind giving us the room?
(DOOR RASPS SHUT)
You're absolutely right.
Though I'm not sure
how that was productive.
I'm not sure how you don't
get fed up with the ineptitude?
They're not inept. They're just not you.
Well, I guess I'll have to
take over when you leave, then.
(INCREDULOUS LAUGH)
Your hubris is astounding.
I'm the best doctor here.
You and I both know this
hospital needs me.
(EXHALES)
Okay, you see that slight asymmetry,
the upstroke pattern?
That wasn't there an hour ago.
Could be sampling issues,
a kink in the line
or condensation build-out.
That would create a variable pattern.
This is identical every breath.
(DOOR OPENS)
We rechecked the security footage.
They don't think there was
anyone else in the car
besides the driver.
Well, she has the same CO2
ramping as Tim Stern
and the same crackles.
Could be mycoplasmic
pneumonia from the ER?
There was no infiltrate
on the chest X-ray.
(JAKE): Amy was right.
Order the VQ, Sonya.
Now.
Ahem, I will given the
change in circumstances.
Whatever you need to tell yourself.
What's going on there?
Doesn't concern you, TJ.
You need a VQ on her as well.
Let's get that done.
Look, it was a gray area.
I wouldn't be so sure it was personal.
Shannon just got a Snapchat
message from a boy in her school.
"Laid up at Westside, think I got food
poisoning from those burgers.
You okay?"
Nausea meds should be kicking
in by now. Feeling any better?
Yeah, starting to, thanks.
Jake, it's the same curve.
You were with my daughter last night?
What did you give her?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's going on?
Wait, Shannon's here? Is she okay?
No, she's not okay. She's in a coma!
Now tell us what drugs you gave her!
Okay, back off. He didn't
give anyone drugs.
- What did you do?!
- Okay, hey, hey, Mrs. Bauer,
please just give us
a chance to talk to him.
You were with Shannon last night, right?
Yes, but we didn't do any
drugs. She had like, one beer.
I didn't even drink at all.
You gave her alcohol too?
You said it was food poisoning.
So, it must have been the burgers then?
That's not what it looks like now.
You drive a dark Chevy, right?
And you dropped a homeless man
off at this hospital at 2 a.m.?
- What?
- He's sick too.
We think you all have the same thing.
Okay, Chris, this isn't a game.
You need to tell us
everything, right now.
We sneak out sometimes.
Go to this empty house.
Last night we found this
injured homeless guy.
And you didn't call 911?
He was trapped under this metal beam.
And when, when we got it
off him, there was,
there was no c-cell service.
So, we put him in my car,
and Sh-Shannon was freaking out.
So, then I so, I let her out
on the way to the hospital
and she walked home.
And you didn't want to get caught.
I'm sorry, it was stupid.
But if they all have the same thing,
is this other man in a coma?
They're all presenting differently.
We need to find out
what they were all exposed to.
Where is this house, Chris?
The VQ results on all three patients
shows the same type
of lung inflammation.
I called public health.
They're on their way to the house.
It's an abandoned construction site,
so it is most likely the source.
I don't like sitting on our hands,
but how long 'til we get
results from public health?
Their first priority
is to secure the site
and to make sure the community is safe.
The tox results will
delay until that happens.
We need boots on the ground,
and it's got to be me.
In your condition?
I'm the only one who's worn
a hazmat suit in a combat zone.
You got an hour. Go. But
I need you back here in one piece.
Move Chris and Tim into the ICU
so we can observe them all together.
But if TJ doesn't get us answers,
we're going to be flying blind.
Heavy metal tests on all three.
We're tracking renal and liver function,
and repeat all the tox screens.
Oh my god, Shannon.
I'm so sorry, Mrs. Bauer.

So, I was just wondering
what that was today,
when you undercut me with Numeroff?
You had it wrong. I stepped in.
We're not interns.
That wasn't a teaching session.
I guess this is as good
a time as any to tell you.
Numeroff's about to announce
his retirement,
and I threw my hat in the ring
to succeed him as chief.
I thought you never wanted that.
I didn't.
Now I do.

No. Thanks.

Shannon should come out

How's Hannah?
We're all having a hard

Thank you for attending to the parents.
I wouldn't say I was of much comfort.
I wasn't going to start trauma
bonding with them.
You were the one that was
best equipped to manage them
in that situation. I'm sorry
if that made you feel like
- I didn't
- I'm a great doctor, Joan.
I know that better than
anyone, but there were plenty
of capable hands in that room,
and I made the call that
I thought was right.
You have Sonya in line for
chief resident,
and I run circles around her every day.
Oh, so that's why
you thought exploding on her
in front of the staff and
the patients was a good idea?
She killed a kid.
That hack today where
the computers rebooted,
it wiped out the blood test
that you ordered,
which would have come back
in time and none of this
would have happened.
She threw me off the case
because I had a different opinion,
which turned out to be right.
What does that say about her
and her leadership?
And I will talk to her.
That's not what I'm asking for.
Okay.
I'm not an intern, Joan.
I walk into that IMO
and I am the smartest person
in that room.
Everybody knows it. This is a farce!
Look, I'm not saying that I am
ready for your chair,
but I should at least be
considered for chief resident.
You're right.
And I hope this means
you are changing your focus.
So, I'll remind you, any side
effects from memory treatments
will have to be a factor,
especially if they affect
your performance or
availability, which they have.
So, I hope you take that
into consideration
as you make your life choices now.
Believe me, I will.

it'll be before he's back

I'm very sorry to tell you
this, but after this
long without treatment, he'll be

We'll be fine.

Had to be Russian agents.
Or Chinese maybe.
They abducted me in my sleep.
Is there anyone we can reach

No, I left them behind.
It's not safe for them to be near me.
Hi, I'm Dr. Larsen. I'll be
working alongside Dr. Maitra.
Looks like he's been
living on the streets.
Seems mentally unstable.
Dumped off last night with
a crush injury. Car sped off.
No ID. Says his name's Tim.
(TIM): Who made this food?
Hospital cafeteria.
There's no proof of that!
Can you test it for poison?
That's done at the nurse's station.
I saw it myself. If you're
hungry, it is safe to eat.
What happened to your leg?
Was this the people
that brought you here?
I told her it was enemy agents.
One of them dropped me here
and the other one took off.
They've been following me since
the night at the lake.
- What lake?
- Cedar!
We had to go on the lam!
There gave me no choice!
This isn't helpful, Dr. Larsen.
Finding out who he is
and where he's been
could be extremely helpful, Dr. Maitra.
(SONYA): Fine. I will treat
the injury in front of me.
If you want to get to
the bottom of his identity,
then go order a psych consult
and review the security footage.
Sure.
(TJ): It's the body's
defense against infection.
We're starting antibiotics while
we wait for more test results.
Antibiotics? She's in a coma.
Ma'am, good morning. I'm Dr. Heller.
You wanna catch me up?
What's going on here?
Yeah, a 16-year-old female found
unresponsive in her bed this morning,
came to the ER a few hours ago.
Regular heartbeat, breathing on
her own, but she's 9 on the GCS.
- What does that mean?
- She is in critical condition,
but we can still bring her
out of this if
we make a proper diagnosis.
Now, do we know where
she was last night?
She was in bed studying.
We were both home all night.
I'm assuming the ER ran a tox screen?
She doesn't do drugs.
That's not what this is about.
Negative for amphetamines and opiates.
Still waiting for a more
advanced screen.
What are you doing?
I told you she was home!
She doesn't do drugs!
Let's get a CAT scan,
make sure we don't have a latent bleed.
Mrs. Bauer, I understand you're worried.
I have a daughter myself.
I promise you I will treat yours
like she's my own, okay?

Oh, great. Thanks.

(AMY): Yeah, that's him.
(DETECTIVE): Well, his wife's

he's been missing over 7 years,
and he was pronounced dead

(MUSIC PEAKS)
Why is it everyone's such a moron?
Oh, what happened now?
Dr. Park missed an MI.
Put a guy into cardiogenic shock.
Well, even I know people make mistakes.
Well, they shouldn't.
And they wouldn't if our
esteemed chief, Numeroff,
held people accountable.
Perhaps the new chief will do better.
Getting that job is all about
groveling and backstabbing,
and then doing it is all about
bureaucracy and politics.
And holding people accountable.
It's a moot point anyway,
'cause he's going to die
in that chair in 25 years.
No, actually, he's not. I just
had drinks with his wife last week,
and the old man's announcing
his retirement any day now.
When you walk into the IMO,
you're the smartest person in the room.
Time for you to start owning that.
I'm not sure you're seeing
the full picture here.
What do you mean?
(AMY): There's a ramp.
I saw it when his CO2 spiked.
Well, we pumped him full of
fluids, CO2 level's normal.
Yeah, but didn't you hear the crackles?
Of course, it's probably edema.
Look at the capnography curve.
There's fluid in his lungs.
Which could be caused by
so many different pathologies,
and we have no medical
history of this man.
So, what are you suggesting?
A VQ scan.
You want to take an unstable patient,
wheel him into an elevator,
take him two floors down,
then load him into a scanner bed
where he'll be practically
unmonitored for another
45 minutes, what
on your hunch?
He could die lying here of
undiagnosed pulmonary hypertension.
I want to find
out what's going on with him.
What's going on with him
is he has a crush injury,
and I don't see any symptoms
suggesting the contrary.
So, administer Lasix and start an ARB.
Fine, but I'm going to order
a blood sample.
And if it comes back with
abnormal gases, we run the VQ.
Should have just said
that in the first place.
(DOOR OPENS)
Test came back?
So her CT was negative,
but the results do show
alcohol in her system.
But she was in bed.
She wouldn't be the first
teenager to sneak out of the house.
If she was partying, she might have
taken something she shouldn't have,
or someone could have spiked her drink.
But that's what I thought
the tox screen's for?
Some things don't show up.
- Like what?
- GHB, ketamine Rohypnol.
That's a roofie.
(JAKE): It would be smart
to have her checked
for sexual assault, with your consent.
- Y you think she
- Now, there-there's no
bruising, there's no sign of a struggle,
so let's not get
ahead of ourselves, okay?

a female doctor do that?
Of course. That is the protocol.
It'd be really helpful if you
could help us figure out
where Shannon was last night.

You have Life 360? It keeps a history.

I don't want

I thought you already gave
him meds to calm him down?
We did, but seeing you
was triggering for him,
and so, we just upped his dosage.
His condition is even
more acute than I thought.
I really don't understand.
He was fine, and then a few days
of acting kind of strange,
and then suddenly he's a schizophrenic
who disappears for seven years?
It's common for it to come on suddenly,
especially at his age.
But where's he even been all this time?
Like, living on the street?
He-he never ended up in
a shelter or in the system?
People fall through the cracks.
So, now what?
We will get him into an
inpatient program to help him
digest what happened
and cope with re-entry.
This is Dr. Larsen. She's the
one who helped us track you down.
I really can't thank you enough.
It must be so difficult for you
to get your head around this.
You don't even understand.
Um we have a son
that he doesn't even know about.
It was only a few weeks after
we found out I was pregnant
that he ran away. And everyone
thought that he got spooked,
but I kept telling them
and the police that he really
he really did love me and he
really wanted to be a father.
I'm so sorry.
But there are, there are
medications, right?
To help deal with the schizophrenia.
Let's just focus on the task at hand.
We get him healed and then we
deal with how to move forward.
Okay.
I'm sorry, I'm just really
I'm so happy he's alive
and I'm so glad someone
finally found him.
Thank you.

Whatever you have to say to me
- I think I already said it.
- So, I should lose my license?
It was a private session that
no one was supposed to hear.
- It was unprofessional.
- It was our strategy to help
Were you encouraging her to
try to patch things up with me,
when I have a newborn child?
- Absolutely not.
- My entire life's a sham,
so she should come in and uproot
it now that she can't remember
she's the one who undid it all?
I'm so sorry this is causing
you so much trouble.
No, I'm great. You did me a favor
since I never loved Nora anyway.
Do you want me to talk to her?
- (SCOFFS)
- Are you kidding me?
- (KNOCK AT DOOR)
- What is it?
IT wants you in the server room.
Don't worry, you'll be
getting high marks for today.
(DOOR CRASHES OPEN)
(MICHAEL): Tell me you found something.
We just flagged two new messages
from Dr. Larsen's
personal email account,
both with attachments to audio
recordings from her sessions.
How can that be when she changed
all of her passwords last night?
If the hacker
was signed into her account
and never logged off, he could
have still been in there.
This is insane. You've got to
be able to log her off remotely.
We just did.
Well, why the hell didn't
you do that last night?
The encroachment was on her
hospital e-mail,
and we were focused on
firewalling our entire
encryption network so you don't
end up with a billion-dollar lawsuit.
(SIGHS)
Well, what were the messages,
and who were they sent to?
One was to Dr. Heller.
- The other was to your daughter.
- What?
We haven't listened to the contents.
- We can't do that without
- Well, when was it sent?
Six minutes ago.
We called you right away.
- And have they been opened?
- Dr. Heller's, no.
But we can't see your daughter's
because it's a personal email account.
Well, forward me the emails
and then unsend them
from Dr. Larsen's account. Immediately.
See that spike T-wave?
It could mean elevated potassium.
So, we check for kidney malfunction.
- Mm.

What the
(PHONE CHIMES)
(JOAN): Hey, hey, did your
computers just glitch?
Yeah, it looks like it's rebooting.
Probably something to do
with the IT investigation.
(OMINOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
(AMY): I don't know. I just
don't know what to do about it.
(GINA): You need to dig deeper
is what you need to do.
Because this block you have
with Katie is serious.
And it's clearly not going away.
(AMY): The thing is, no matter
how great Jake is in bed,
I'm always gonna love Michael.
I honestly can't see what
he's doing with that shrew.
(GINA): So just wait for it to implode.
Then Michael will come back.
- Come on.
- (KNOCK AT DOOR)
- (LID CLAPS CLOSED)
- Come in!
I just spoke with IT.
Whoever hacked Amy sent
a phishing e-mail
to everyone in the hospital.
Now one of the doctors opened
it and the entire system
rebooted instantaneously.
Just make sure any tests your
doctors ordered are reconfirmed.
This is madness, Michael.
This puts all of our patients in danger.
I know, but it looks like the only thing
they were interested in
is wiping Amy's metadata.
What if it's not someone
from Amy's past?
What if it's someone
working in the hospital now?
(CURIOUS MUSIC PLAYING)
(PATIENT RETCHING)
Thank you, ma'am.
I'm Dr. Clark. What's going on here?
I think someone is trying
to sweet-talk his way out of
admitting to his parents
that he has a hangover.
You slandered me, Julie,
after I poured on all that charm?
(JULIE LAUGHS)
He's never been sick like
this, even as a little kid.
You eat anything unusual?
Cafeteria pizza, fast food
burger after school.
And no drugs or alcohol?
No, that would get in
the way of basketball.
There's a playoff game on Thursday,
so we need to be out of here for that.
Okay. Well, we'll start you
on Ondansetron for the nausea.
I'll order a liver function
test to be safe,
but there's a good chance
this is just food poisoning.
Thanks.
(MONITOR BEEPING)
A computer glitch screwed
up my blood test,
so I need a new sample.
His breathing's still decompensating.
How much Lasix did you give him?
Forty milligrams.
That's not enough.
His neck veins are flat.
That's not typical for heart failure.
If you are still refusing a VQ,
we should at least give him a spiral CT.
He would only be on
the table for 15 minutes.
For the last time, we are not
moving him so you can play the hero.
You actually think that's
what this is about?
I have no idea, but if we can't row
in the same direction,
I say you bow out of this.
Do I need to remind you
of the hierarchy?
(KATIE): So, what exactly
was on the email?
Hmm I told you,
someone broke into Mom's account
and got a hold of her therapy sessions.
And what was on them?
Stuff that was really
bad for me and Nora.
Wow. Can you be more vague?
We discussed this.
Anyway, she's staying
at her mom's right now.
I don't know for how long.
Did you hear what was on that recording?
I did.
I can't blame her for leaving.
But you still won't tell me?
Well, it's actually
none of your business.
Right.
They also sent one
to you this morning.
And we managed to unsend it
and delete it,
but I wasn't sure if you saw it?
I was in classes all morning.
I don't check my phone.
Okay, good.
Why, what was on them?
I didn't listen. But don't worry.
We're gonna find out who's doing this.
I already know who's doing this.
It's Mom, right?
Ever since her accident,
everything's just falling apart again.
I swear, I won't tell your parents.
We just need to know where she was.
Yeah. Okay.
I'll try her.
I'm striking out.
(CURTAIN RASPS POWERFULLY)
There's no indication
of any kind of assault.
But there was sexual activity
at some point
within the last 12 hours.
But if someone had given her
a roofie, they could have
without there being any evidence.
If she was sneaking out on
a school night, it's,
it's much more likely that she
was going to meet a boyfriend.
Right. Then how the hell
does she end up here?
(CURTAIN RASPS OPEN FURTHER)
Is she here on her own?
(JAKE): Yeah. Yeah, father died
a few years ago.
She's the only child.
Her CO2 is ramping.
Yeah, a slight shark fin
pattern, that's new.
My other case,
he's having the same issue.
So, we think they're related?
He said there were two people,
one who dropped him here
and the other one took off.
Maybe maybe that was her?
So, how, uh how is Mrs. Hardy in 615?
Vitals look good.
I was just in there.
She seems to be on the mend.
Yeah. I suspected a PE,
so I sent her for a CT.
But the results showed
a giant lobar pneumonia.
Good catch.
Not really.
- Excuse me?
- Well, it's not a catch.
That's luck. You should have caught
the decreased breath sounds on exam.
You did examine her, right?
- Of course.
- So, you just missed it then?
- (SIGHS)
- (TENSE MUSIC PLAYING)
Dr. Miller, Dr. Clark, would
you mind giving us the room?
(DOOR RASPS SHUT)
You're absolutely right.
Though I'm not sure
how that was productive.
I'm not sure how you don't
get fed up with the ineptitude?
They're not inept. They're just not you.
Well, I guess I'll have to
take over when you leave, then.
(INCREDULOUS LAUGH)
Your hubris is astounding.
I'm the best doctor here.
You and I both know this
hospital needs me.
(EXHALES)
Okay, you see that slight asymmetry,
the upstroke pattern?
That wasn't there an hour ago.
Could be sampling issues,
a kink in the line
or condensation build-out.
That would create a variable pattern.
This is identical every breath.
(DOOR OPENS)
We rechecked the security footage.
They don't think there was
anyone else in the car
besides the driver.
Well, she has the same CO2
ramping as Tim Stern
and the same crackles.
Could be mycoplasmic
pneumonia from the ER?
There was no infiltrate
on the chest X-ray.
(JAKE): Amy was right.
Order the VQ, Sonya.
Now.
Ahem, I will given the
change in circumstances.
Whatever you need to tell yourself.
What's going on there?
Doesn't concern you, TJ.
You need a VQ on her as well.
Let's get that done.
Look, it was a gray area.
I wouldn't be so sure it was personal.
Shannon just got a Snapchat
message from a boy in her school.
"Laid up at Westside, think I got food
poisoning from those burgers.
You okay?"
Nausea meds should be kicking
in by now. Feeling any better?
Yeah, starting to, thanks.
Jake, it's the same curve.
You were with my daughter last night?
What did you give her?
Whoa, whoa, whoa, what's going on?
Wait, Shannon's here? Is she okay?
No, she's not okay. She's in a coma!
Now tell us what drugs you gave her!
Okay, back off. He didn't
give anyone drugs.
- What did you do?!
- Okay, hey, hey, Mrs. Bauer,
please just give us
a chance to talk to him.
You were with Shannon last night, right?
Yes, but we didn't do any
drugs. She had like, one beer.
I didn't even drink at all.
You gave her alcohol too?
You said it was food poisoning.
So, it must have been the burgers then?
That's not what it looks like now.
You drive a dark Chevy, right?
And you dropped a homeless man
off at this hospital at 2 a.m.?
- What?
- He's sick too.
We think you all have the same thing.
Okay, Chris, this isn't a game.
You need to tell us
everything, right now.
We sneak out sometimes.
Go to this empty house.
Last night we found this
injured homeless guy.
And you didn't call 911?
He was trapped under this metal beam.
And when, when we got it
off him, there was,
there was no c-cell service.
So, we put him in my car,
and Sh-Shannon was freaking out.
So, then I so, I let her out
on the way to the hospital
and she walked home.
And you didn't want to get caught.
I'm sorry, it was stupid.
But if they all have the same thing,
is this other man in a coma?
They're all presenting differently.
We need to find out
what they were all exposed to.
Where is this house, Chris?
The VQ results on all three patients
shows the same type
of lung inflammation.
I called public health.
They're on their way to the house.
It's an abandoned construction site,
so it is most likely the source.
I don't like sitting on our hands,
but how long 'til we get
results from public health?
Their first priority
is to secure the site
and to make sure the community is safe.
The tox results will
delay until that happens.
We need boots on the ground,
and it's got to be me.
In your condition?
I'm the only one who's worn
a hazmat suit in a combat zone.
You got an hour. Go. But
I need you back here in one piece.
Move Chris and Tim into the ICU
so we can observe them all together.
But if TJ doesn't get us answers,
we're going to be flying blind.
Heavy metal tests on all three.
We're tracking renal and liver function,
and repeat all the tox screens.
Oh my god, Shannon.
I'm so sorry, Mrs. Bauer.
I had no idea there was anything
wrong in that house.
Hey, we got this. TJ'll figure it out.

- Okay, that was TJ.
It's copper sulfate exposure.
Hang methylene blue,

Dr. Clark, go stat.
(ANXIOUS MUSIC)
If we're right, the treatment
could just take a few minutes.
And then she'd be out of the coma?
We don't know how long his exposure was,
but if we calculate this
correctly, his respiratory
issues should dissipate
almost immediately.
All that time you were
getting that man out
from under the beam, you didn't
realize you were being exposed.
What about Shannon?
Is it too late for her?

what that was today,
when you undercut me with Numeroff?
You had it wrong. I stepped in.
We're not interns.
That wasn't a teaching session.
I guess this is as good
a time as any to tell you.
Numeroff's about to announce
his retirement,
and I threw my hat in the ring
to succeed him as chief.
I thought you never wanted that.
I didn't.
Now I do.

You want?
No. Thanks.
Shannon and Tim are stabilizing?
Shannon should come out

How's Hannah?
We're all having a hard
time with this one.
Thank you for attending to the parents.
I wouldn't say I was of much comfort.
I wasn't going to start trauma
bonding with them.
You were the one that was
best equipped to manage them
in that situation. I'm sorry
if that made you feel like
- I didn't
- I'm a great doctor, Joan.
I know that better than
anyone, but there were plenty
of capable hands in that room,
and I made the call that
I thought was right.
You have Sonya in line for
chief resident,
and I run circles around her every day.
Oh, so that's why
you thought exploding on her
in front of the staff and
the patients was a good idea?
She killed a kid.
That hack today where
the computers rebooted,
it wiped out the blood test
that you ordered,
which would have come back
in time and none of this
would have happened.
She threw me off the case
because I had a different opinion,
which turned out to be right.
What does that say about her
and her leadership?
And I will talk to her.
That's not what I'm asking for.
Okay.
I'm not an intern, Joan.
I walk into that IMO
and I am the smartest person
in that room.
Everybody knows it. This is a farce!
Look, I'm not saying that I am
ready for your chair,
but I should at least be
considered for chief resident.
You're right.
And I hope this means
you are changing your focus.
So, I'll remind you, any side
effects from memory treatments
will have to be a factor,
especially if they affect
your performance or
availability, which they have.
So, I hope you take that
into consideration
as you make your life choices now.
Believe me, I will.
