The Rule of Three

♪
[EXHALES]
MALENA: You're both scared as hell.
- Yes.
- Very, very, very, very, very scared.
That just means everything's happening
the way it's supposed to.
Remember, by the end of today,
you two are going to be heroes
to parents everywhere.
It took me two partners
and eight years to have three kids.
LAUREN: When I'm on a plane
and there's turbulence,
I always watch the flight attendants,
and if they seem fine,
I figure I'm fine.
And you seem fine?
[LAUGHS]
Oh, Dr. Malena's better than fine.
She's an ob-gyn
who's about to deliver triplets
by C-section.
This is what she's trained for.
This is her day to summit Everest.
[LAUGHS SOFTLY]
Came to say good luck.
MALENA: You're
both brilliant, so I trust
you've been mindful of the names?
My parents left it to the last minute,
and now I'm named
after a breed of cats.
- [CHUCKLES]
- [PHONE BUZZING]
Oh, I'm sorry, that's
actually me.
Listen, well, I have to go.
Adam, Lauren and Tabby.
Good luck, and I will
see you all on the other side.
SASHA: I know this is
the tenth time I've asked.
Are you okay?
Since the whole thing?
Since I killed Beck?
I'm not trying to wave it off,
but I've given three statements
to the police.
That was, like, ten hours in total.
He attacked me, I defended myself.
Gotcha.
Well, hopefully, you can
get it out somewhere else.
Therapy?
I'm actually not allowed
back in group yet.
The investigation is
"winding its way down,"
but it's still active.
I'm here if you need me.
[FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING]
WATSON: Adam and Lauren
have just headed into the OR,
so it's gonna take a couple hours.
So, I'm gonna you know.
INGRID: Good idea.
She's waiting.
MARY: Your schedule is clear.
We're driving to Baltimore.
Uh, excuse me, you're in my clinic.
You may run the hospital,
but you don't run my calendar.
It's not an order.
I am trying to do you
a favor, John. You're sick.
- I feel fine.
- You have a glioblastoma.
That's in charge now.
You feel fine today?
In the very near future,
you will not feel fine at all.
You won't pick a neurosurgeon.
That has to stop.
Look, you've built your whole life
so there aren't people
who can say this to you
so it comes down to me.
You have to pick a neurosurgeon today.
I'm weighing my options.
I got us some time with Isaac Niles.
- Niles?
- Mm-hmm.
Niles was just in Johnstown last year.
Until you plucked him from obscurity.
Until you recognized his talent
and turned him into a superstar.
We are going to drive down
to Baltimore today
and you are going to make
an appeal to the man.
You are going to ask
to get on his surgical calendar.
Isaac Niles was your discovery.
You can't possibly tell me
he's not good enough.
He's a'ight.
All right, all right,
it's a good idea.
I'll give the man a hearing.
You're going to make an appeal.
You're going to ask Dr. Niles,
very respectfully,
for space on his calendar.
I'll give the man a hearing.
ANDREWS: Patient's unruly.
I got to break out of time.
Administering the haloperidol.
I got to break out of time.
[MOANS]
Hey, big ugly!
Beg your pardon.
Name's Shinwell Johnson.
Get over here
and make yourself useful.
I got to break out of time!
Hey, it's okay.
Ow!
- All right, mate, all right.
- Carlin!
ANDREWS: It was this.
He had it in his pocket.
PATIENT: I got to break out of time!
I got to break out of time!
Hey.
You doing okay out here?
Yeah. It's not my first needle stick.
Get the labs drawn,
write up the report.
All right.
Do you think I should kiss it?
I really think I can make it better.
Gonna need you to get out of my sight.
Carlin.
I just reviewed the patient's chart.
He's HIV positive.
Viral load unknown.
We can do this?
Three kids at once?
We can.
How? How can we?
How-how can anyone?
They already got you.
What more could they ask for?
Okay, Mom and Dad.
Dr. Malena, you okay?
Completely fine.
We are ready to begin.
["YOUR LOVE SHINES GOLDEN" BY
THE SEXTONES PLAYS OVER RADIO]
- [BEEPING]
- WATSON: There's a flood warning.
Ah, there's always a flood warning.
It's not even raining.
So I saw the news yesterday.
Josh Gibson is the new defensive
coordinator of the L.A. Rams.
Your boyfriend's going pro.
- Hmm.
- Impressive.
Boyfriend?
What are we, eighth graders?
Hey, look, you can call him
what you want. I'm just saying,
it's incredible news.
Big congrats to you.
Thank you. We're very happy.
I don't know how soon he's moving.
I don't know any of those details,
- if that's what you're asking.
- I wasn't asking anything.
I was just saying congratulations.
Thanks.
[CLEARS THROAT]
MALENA: I'm through
the initial layer of skin.
Can we increase the cautery level?
- Do you need help?
- [PHONE RINGING]
- Adam?
- MALENA: I'm fine.
I asked for more cautery.
NURSE HAN: Dr. Croft?
You have a phone call.
It's Dr. Watson.
Watson?
Adam, you need to see
if there's another OB available.
Dr. Malena has café au lait macules,
at least one neurofibroma.
If something goes wrong
Something's already wrong.
- She's not doing well.
- I'm concerned
she has neurofibromatosis type 1.
You need to find another OB.
Turn up the cautery.
[CRIES OUT]
[GROANING]
♪
- [MUFFLED]: Doctor. Dr. Malena.
- LAUREN [MUFFLED]: Adam?
[LOW, MUFFLED CHATTER]
Adam?
Adam? What's happening?
[CLEARLY]: Adam?
You were right.
Something's wrong with Dr. Malena.
[WATSON'S DIALOGUE GARBLED,
BREAKING UP]
- Watson, I can't hear you.
- [GARBLED DIALOGUE CONTINUES]
MALENA: I got a little lightheaded,
but I'll just re-scrub.
Respectfully, there is no way
that you are operating on my fiancée.
- You need a doctor.
- Who's gonna deliver the babies?
ADAM: Dr. Tichenor, how many
C-sections have you done?
Well, I mean, I've assisted on
several, but I'm only an intern.
LAUREN: No. We're having triplets.
He's barely out of training wheels.
Is there another attending available?
Dr. Fiore is in another delivery.
- He should be wrapping up soon.
- ADAM: Tell Labor and Delivery
to send him over as soon as he's done.
Until then, you are in charge
of these babies.
Monitor fetal heart rate.
This is just a delay.
Fiore is excellent.
We are lucky it's him.
Lauren, I'm not gonna
let anything bad happen.
Not to you, not to our babies.
Okay?
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
Cell towers must be down.
We can turn back around
and try to catch a turnpike ramp
so we can get back.
Yeah, but who knows when cell
service will be back up again?
[THUNDER RUMBLING]
You know, I think
I saw a diner a few miles back.
They have to have a land line.
- [ENTRY BELL JINGLES]
- You-you bought me out
of all the shoofly.
If it really needs to be four dozen,
I can throw in some coconut clusters.
Excuse me, sir. Can we use your phone?
Listen, I'm sorry.
My name is Dr. John Watson.
Hold on, buddy.
I'm-I'm taking an order.
Please. We're both doctors.
There is a situation at
our hospital back in Pittsburgh.
A woman is having premature triplets,
and her doctor collapsed.
We need to call UHOP,
and the the cell towers are down.
- I got to call you back.
- [PHONE BEEPS OFF]
Scariest six weeks of my life was
when my little girl was in the NICU.
Take all the time you need.
INGRID: You must
- feel like crap.
- Maybe it's getting better?
I can't tell.
Oh, that's not what I mean.
Missing a triplet birth.
That's once every five years?
- Oh, try seven.
- Oh, yup.
It's like getting injured right
before your gold medal routine.
Don't mind Dr. Derian.
She's got the bedside manner
of a neurologist.
[QUIETLY]: Hey.
We've got Dr. Malena.
We'll take care of her.
What do you need from me?
I don't know. How about,
invent a time machine,
go to the end of this day,
and let me know
everything turns out okay?
- [DOOR CLOSING]
- [PHONE RINGING]
- Care to guess who's calling?
- Bedford.
On the way to Baltimore.
Are you, by chance, eating pie?
WATSON: We found a land line.
Fill me in.
STEPHENS: Lauren and the
triplets are waiting on Fiore.
It's just an intern in there for now.
SASHA: Dr. Malena is having
a hypertensive emergency.
- Her blood pressure's 220/117.
- No wonder she passed out.
That would take out a man
twice her size.
Neurofibromatosis alone wouldn't
cause such a high reading.
We need to evaluate her
for all possible causes.
First priority is ruling out a
stroke. She needs a neuro exam.
If there's anything concerning,
she should get head imaging.
All right, agreed. Anything else?
SASHA: Could be poorly controlled
essential hypertension.
I'd take a look at her chart.
See if she's been
previously diagnosed.
Maybe she's not taking her medication,
or this could just be
a bad hypertensive episode.
Okay. Very good. Sasha and Stephens,
dive into Dr. Malena's
medical records.
Ingrid, do an exam and check
for any signs of a stroke.
If it's negative, give her labetalol.
Get her blood pressure down.
And you can use this number
if you need to reach us.
Make sure Adam has it, too.
SHINWELL: Those pills.
They stop you from getting it,
don't they?
They're supposed to.
I want to say something,
and feel free to take it
as a promise or a curse.
Whatever happens,
whatever this test says,
it ain't gonna change anything
on my end.
And if you are
fool enough to want me at your side
if I'm lucky enough
well, that's where I'll be.
But if it's care that you need,
with this,
with-with oh, with anything,
I'd be honored to do me part
there, as well.
Thank you.
Go.
You should be, um, shadowing oncology.
Nah.
[INHALES]
I think I'm gonna wait right here.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
[SIGHS]
Dr. Fiore's delivery
it's not routine anymore.
He's still coming.
It's just, um
it's gonna be a little bit.
[MONITOR BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
You said nothing bad
was going to happen.
So far, it all seems really bad.
I'm holding this picture in my head.
It's the end of today, or tonight,
however long this takes
but it's of you.
You're sitting up,
holding one of our babies.
Everything's quiet.
The other two are sleeping
in bassinets.
They can sleep,
because they know they're safe.
- I like that.
- Mm.
Adam, you want this, right?
Of course I do.
I sleep next to you every night.
I know when you're worried
about your sponsee,
but you can't say anything.
I know when you're worried
about something at work,
and you won't say anything.
I know your face.
It's like a book
I get to read every single day.
I'm terrified.
I don't mean, here, today.
I mean
everything.
I had a
not amazing father.
He never said anything, but I knew,
I just knew,
that I was in the way sometimes.
A lot of the time.
What if that's me?
- You're smiling?
- [LAUGHS]
I am.
You just described the one thing
I'm not worried about.
[SPEAKS SOFTLY]
Adam Croft.
I know you.
I know who you are.
You won't be that.
You couldn't be that.
[ALARM BEEPING]
That's a decel.
[PHONE RINGS]
Kelly's Pies. This is Kelly.
How can I make your rainy day sweeter?
ADAM: My baby's in trouble.
Please, I need John Watson.
It's for you.
WATSON: Ingrid, what's going on?
It's Adam.
One of my babies keeps having decels.
- How low is the heart rate?
- It started at 90,
but the most recent one
went down to 60
and lasted for a full two minutes.
Where's the new OB?
Dr. Fiore is stuck
in a vacuum delivery. Nurse says
it'll be another ten minutes,
at least.
Adam, it's Mary.
You have to go ahead
with the C-section.
How? I don't have an attending.
Use the intern.
You can't delay any longer
so you have
to use the hands you've got.
I'll guide him through the fascia.
Hopefully, by the time
he gets to the uterus,
Fiore's there to take over.
Hold on.
The babies need to come out?
Remember the picture.
Everything's quiet.
Everyone's safe.
Dr. Morstan wants to talk to you.
The medical director of UHOP?
- Andrew Tichenor.
- MARY: Dr. Tichenor,
you need to start the C-section.
I'll be with you
every step of the way.
Dr. Tichenor? Andrew?
Andy?
She can't hear you nodding, man.
Yeah, I'm here. Uh, An-Andy.
Okay, relax, Andy. Breathe.
You're not delivering.
You're just getting us
most of the way there.
Now, what do you see?
I'm looking at a layer of fatty
tissue with fascia underneath.
Kelly, do you have a second landline?
MARY: Good. That's Camper's fascia.
Now cut through until you see
the membranous layer underneath it.
Once you get through Scarpa's fascia,
you'll be
at the anterior rectus sheath.
Okay. Yes. I know this.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- Okay.
I got it from Miss Mimi's.
It's a nail salon.
[KEYS BEEPING]
[PHONE RINGING]
Pie? A manicure?
Man's gone soft on us.
We're into it here with Dr. Malena.
These findings
we need a sounding board.
- WATSON: Okay, tell me.
- SASHA: Her history shows
no evidence of hypertension,
she's never been prescribed
blood pressure medication.
The screening labs are normal,
and her exam was negative
for signs of a stroke.
I administered labetalol.
All right, then what's the issue?
Her blood pressure is still high.
221/185 when I left the room.
Well, she's not responding
to the meds.
- What about her tachycardia?
- Better. Down to
- [HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]
- [THUNDER CRASHING]
Watson? You there?
Yeah, no. No, I'm-I'm good.
Um, so, if her blood pressure's
not responding
to the beta-blockers, then,
it could be a tumor.
Do a CT on her abdomen and her pelvis,
and tell me what you see.
All right.
[PHONE BEEPS OFF]
Oh, the, uh, the OR?
Dr. Tichenor's working his way
to the uterus.
He'll call when he needs me.
What just happened, John?
I'm good. Nothing.
- Oh. Come on.
- I'm
I got it.
[CARLIN AND SHINWELL SIGH]
If you're going to stick around,
make yourself useful.
Distract me.
[SHINWELL SNIFFLES]
The trip you took.
Uh, you flew to London, what,
four times the last couple months?
You never said much.
I knew it had to do with him.
Sherlock Holmes.
The man that saved me.
That's right.
Not much to tell.
All sounds like high drama.
I checked the dead drops
that Holmes had set up
all over London.
I left letters
in case Holmes was checking
those same dead drops.
I went and saw various
associates of ours.
Holmes always used
to call them The Irregulars.
Dead drops?
- The Irregulars?
- Yeah.
Sounds like a great adventure, innit?
But, uh, in the doing of it
uh, just me maundering around.
It was a folly.
Why? Because Sherlock Holmes is dead.
The version of the man
that I was chasing
the only place you're gonna find
that Sherlock Holmes
is in the head of Dr. Watson.
Yeah. I'm terribly worried about John.
And as for Holmes
Oh, I miss him.
I always will.
I did my duty. I'm glad of it.
And I'd do it again if called upon.
But if you want to know the truth,
my life
is here now.
My heart
never left this city.
What are you thinking?
Wouldn't you like to know.
Tabby, I've been texting
with your husband.
Your kids should be
waiting for you on four
by the time we're done.
And the babies? The triplets?
We're waiting on news.
SASHA: He'll call.
If Adam has an update,
if he needs anything,
you'll be the first to hear.
Are you okay?
It's been a week.
So far, um,
I don't really feel much of anything.
I mean, Beck pretended
to be my birth mom.
It was weird.
It was sick.
But in the end, I'm just back
to where I started.
I'm just
numb.
I think that's
normal maybe?
- Hmm.
- [COMPUTER BEEPS]
[SASHA SIGHS]
Whoa.
A paraganglioma.
Right there in the bladder wall.
The pressure when her bladder
filled up caused the tumor
to release stress hormones.
Watson was right.
Tabby is lucky we found this.
She could have died
from a catecholamine crisis.
We'll start her on phentolamine
before her biopsy.
Her blood pressure
should respond right away.
I do believe
that we have cracked the case
of the collapsing gynecologist.
Stephens. He'll call.
Yeah.
Do you remember Paul Fentress?
From med school? Of course.
Oh, God, he was brilliant.
I loved Paul.
When I didn't hate Paul, I loved him.
- He was my yardstick.
- He was everybody's yardstick.
Seen him lately?
No.
I mean, the accident, obviously.
Mowed down in a crosswalk on Forbes.
You know, when Paul woke up,
he wasn't so brilliant anymore.
John, that is not going to be you.
You can come through this.
Okay? You can be fine.
I don't know. With this tumor,
I mean, the numbers aren't on my side.
What are you worried about?
Paul.
Paul never stopped trying
to figure out the world.
He was exhausting to be around.
Yet, he was exhilarating to be around.
That's me.
That's who I am.
And when you look at Paul now,
he's just trying to find his way home.
You know, people think
that I'm stubborn
because I won't pick a surgeon.
But the real reason is this question.
Do I want to live Paul's life
or no life?
Look, I have cancer.
Okay? And it's in my brain,
and I feel like
maybe just the one bit of power
I have left is
to keep myself from becoming Paul.
I hate to break it to you, John,
but you don't even have
that much power.
Look, you can't just opt out
because you're scared.
Okay, I get it. Of course I get it.
But people love you,
and you owe it to them
to take this risk.
You owe it to Shinwell,
you owe it to the Fellows.
You owe it to me.
- [PHONE RINGS] - [WATSON
GASPS] - [MARY SIGHS]
- MARY: Hello?
- Hi. I think it's safe to say
that we are in a very quiet,
very palpable kind of panic here.
- Tell me.
- Tell me.
Still no sign of Dr. Fiore.
Still no ETA.
Dr. Tichenor has cut down
to the uterus.
Do we wait?
You're going to have to go
with Dr. Tichenor.
Forgive me, one and all.
Things got a little complicated
with my previous delivery.
I'm Michael Fiore,
and we are about to begin
an extremely unique relationship.
Uh, we'll skip introductions for now
and just call you Mom and Dad, okay?
Yeah, sure. You hear that? This is it.
Okay? Everything's gonna be just fine.
Adam, um, I feel weird.
Something isn't right.
[ALARMS BEEPING]
Oxygen is in the high 80s.
She's getting tachy, and
her blood pressure's dropped.
Mom's losing volume.
Probably from internal bleeding.
But we can't help her until
these babies are delivered.
Don't think about
what they're saying, okay?
Just think about that picture.
Me sitting up.
- Our babies are sleeping.
- Mm-hmm.
- Everyone's safe.
- FIORE: Okay, team.
These babies are coming out right now.
- Moving placenta to the side.
- I see it.
FIORE: There's Baby A,
- a beautiful girl.
- [BABY CRYING]
That's our baby.
I can hear our baby. [SIGHS]
FIORE: That's Baby A.
So far, so good with her.
- [BABY CRYING]
- [FIORE GROANS]
And there's Baby B, another girl.
- [BABY CRYING]
- You are doing so great.
We're almost there.
[PANTING]
Something's wrong. I don't feel good.
No, no. We're gonna take care
of you so soon, okay?
Just one more. You've got this.
If something happens,
you'll take care of the babies.
Oh, don't talk like that.
We checked in together,
we are leaving together.
- You hear me?
- FIORE: All right.
Grab baby by the feet.
Now, pull gently,
and I'll support the body.
- How's Mom?
- ANESTHESIOLOGIST: Blood pressures are holding
- for now. Hanging second bolus.
- Okay, good.
And [GROANS]
Here we go. It's Baby C,
- a beautiful boy.
- [BABY AND LAUREN CRYING]
FIORE: Very nice work, everyone.
[LAUREN CONTINUES CRYING]
- Oh, my God.
- Look at him.
He looks just like you.
Look at his face.
- [ALARM BEEPING RAPIDLY]
- Lauren?
Lauren? Lauren? Lauren? Lauren?
ANESTHESIOLOGIST: She's crashing.
Systolics are in the 90s and dropping.
Wait, what what's happening?
- What's going on?
- FIORE: Could be uterine atony.
Both placentas delivered,
performing fundal massage.
Prep that third bolus.
I'm very sorry, Dad, but right now,
I need to focus on Mom's safety,
and for me to do that,
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
- Please?
- [RAPID BEEPING CONTINUES]
- Just take care of the babies.
- Yeah.
You take care of the babies.
I will.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
[P.A. BEEPS]
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.]
[MONITORS BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
STEPHENS: What are their names?
ADAM: Olivia, Isabella
and Hamish.
Olivia, Isabella and Hamish.
They are so beautiful.
[ADAM'S BREATH QUIVERING]
Lauren hasn't even met them yet.
She will. Soon.
Yeah.
Look at you.
You thought you didn't want this.
[ADAM LAUGHS SOFTLY]
SASHA: Adam.
Lauren just got out of the OR.
She's in the PACU now.
How is she? Is she better?
They transfused her
and stopped the bleeding.
You should see her. Now.
I'll be here. I'll stay with them.
[RHYTHMIC BEEPING CONTINUES]
[MONITORS BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
[PHONE RINGS]
[PHONE BEEPS]
Adam, are you okay?
I heard the triplets are here.
Adam, okay, tell me about Lauren.
She lost a lot of blood.
They gave her methylergonovine,
carboprost and misoprostol.
It didn't work.
They finally had to put in
an intrauterine balloon.
She's stable right now, kind of.
But nobody knows
what's causing the bleeding.
If Lauren's blood pressure tanks,
she might have to go back to the OR.
Watson, I can't do this alone.
I can't lose her.
No, you are not gonna lose Lauren.
We're going to figure out
what's wrong with her.
Tell me what you see.
Tune everything else out.
Tell me what you see
when you look at Lauren.
[VOICE BREAKING]:
I see Lauren. I see my fiancée,
and she looks really bad.
Okay. No. Look closer.
Go deeper, Adam. This is it.
This is what
I've been training you to do.
Look.
She's pale.
Paler than she was when I got here.
[BEEPING]
Her BP ticks down
every 90 seconds or so.
There's blood at her IV site.
That's weird, right?
- Yeah. No, that shouldn't be happening.
- [THUNDER CRASHING]
Postdelivery bleeding
wouldn't affect the IV site.
Go see Dr. Malena.
Keep me on the phone
and move as fast as you can.
- They told me the babies are safe?
- Yeah.
- What are their names?
- Olivia, Isabella
and Hamish.
You're on with John Watson.
Dr. Malena, we have to talk
to you about Lauren's C-section.
At the start of the operation,
right before your symptoms got bad,
did you notice anything unusual?
Nothing I was worried about.
But Lauren was on the oozier side.
- More than normal?
- Yes. Again, nothing dramatic,
but I had to cauterize
more than I usually do.
Did I miss something?
Lauren's in DIC.
She probably had a placental
abruption right before the OR.
Her body has used up all
of the clotting factors,
and now, she can't stop bleeding.
You need
to get off the phone right away.
Lauren's in DIC.
She needs FFP and cryo.
Get me back on with the blood bank.
Send a PACU nurse there right now!
[THUNDER CRASHING]
MARY: Lauren's getting treatment.
Okay? We'll know more soon.
I think it's your turn.
I told you everything
that I was leaving out.
Everything
that I was not willing to say.
Now I think it's your turn.
[SCOFFS] Who says
I'm leaving something out?
You did. I mean, you didn't use words,
but it was the way you reacted
when I talked about Josh's new job.
And some other stuff that happened.
You really are an exhausting ride.
You don't have to say anything
at all if you don't want to,
of course, but, uh
I've been waiting for the right time.
I guess there's never
really gonna be one.
Josh has a few job offers.
He wasn't sure if he wanted

You never should have let Beck

You never should have let him
in my life.
But once you knew, once you saw
Beck for what he really was,
you went over to his place anyway.
You exposed yourself to him,
and you put yourself in danger.
And I appreciate that.
I haven't seen you smile in a while.
That's what Beck wanted, you know.
He couldn't stand
to see someone like you,
strong and kind,
and just leave that alone.
Kind of just feels
like I'm leading with my chin.
That might be the saddest thing
I've ever heard.
Welp, let's see how I feel tomorrow.

Okay. Very good. Sasha and Stephens,

I loved Paul.
When I didn't hate Paul, I loved him.

No.

You can come through this.
Okay? You can be fine.
I don't know. With this tumor,
I mean, the numbers aren't on my side.
What are you worried about?
Paul.
Paul never stopped trying
to figure out the world.
He was exhausting to be around.
Yet, he was exhilarating to be around.
That's me.
That's who I am.
And when you look at Paul now,
he's just trying to find his way home.
You know, people think
that I'm stubborn
because I won't pick a surgeon.
But the real reason is this question.
Do I want to live Paul's life
or no life?
Look, I have cancer.
Okay? And it's in my brain,
and I feel like
maybe just the one bit of power
I have left is
to keep myself from becoming Paul.
I hate to break it to you, John,
but you don't even have
that much power.
Look, you can't just opt out
because you're scared.

Adam, um, I feel weird.
Something isn't right.
[ALARMS BEEPING]
Oxygen is in the high 80s.
She's getting tachy, and
her blood pressure's dropped.
Mom's losing volume.
Probably from internal bleeding.
But we can't help her until
these babies are delivered.
Don't think about
what they're saying, okay?
Just think about that picture.
Me sitting up.
- Our babies are sleeping.
- Mm-hmm.
- Everyone's safe.
- FIORE: Okay, team.
These babies are coming out right now.
- Moving placenta to the side.
- I see it.
FIORE: There's Baby A,
- a beautiful girl.
- [BABY CRYING]
That's our baby.
I can hear our baby. [SIGHS]
FIORE: That's Baby A.
So far, so good with her.
- [BABY CRYING]
- [FIORE GROANS]
And there's Baby B, another girl.
- [BABY CRYING]
- You are doing so great.
We're almost there.
[PANTING]
Something's wrong. I don't feel good.
No, no. We're gonna take care
of you so soon, okay?
Just one more. You've got this.
If something happens,
you'll take care of the babies.
Oh, don't talk like that.
We checked in together,
we are leaving together.
- You hear me?
- FIORE: All right.
Grab baby by the feet.
Now, pull gently,
and I'll support the body.
- How's Mom?
- ANESTHESIOLOGIST: Blood pressures are holding
- for now. Hanging second bolus.
- Okay, good.
And [GROANS]
Here we go. It's Baby C,
- a beautiful boy.
- [BABY AND LAUREN CRYING]
FIORE: Very nice work, everyone.
[LAUREN CONTINUES CRYING]
- Oh, my God.
- Look at him.
He looks just like you.
Look at his face.
- [ALARM BEEPING RAPIDLY]
- Lauren?
Lauren? Lauren? Lauren? Lauren?
ANESTHESIOLOGIST: She's crashing.
Systolics are in the 90s and dropping.
Wait, what what's happening?
- What's going on?
- FIORE: Could be uterine atony.
Both placentas delivered,
performing fundal massage.
Prep that third bolus.
I'm very sorry, Dad, but right now,
I need to focus on Mom's safety,
and for me to do that,
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
- Please?
- [RAPID BEEPING CONTINUES]
- Just take care of the babies.
- Yeah.
You take care of the babies.
I will.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
[P.A. BEEPS]
[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.A.]
[MONITORS BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
STEPHENS: What are their names?
ADAM: Olivia, Isabella
and Hamish.
Olivia, Isabella and Hamish.
They are so beautiful.
[ADAM'S BREATH QUIVERING]
Lauren hasn't even met them yet.
She will. Soon.
Yeah.
Look at you.
You thought you didn't want this.
[ADAM LAUGHS SOFTLY]
SASHA: Adam.
Lauren just got out of the OR.
She's in the PACU now.
How is she? Is she better?
They transfused her
and stopped the bleeding.
You should see her. Now.
I'll be here. I'll stay with them.
[RHYTHMIC BEEPING CONTINUES]
[MONITORS BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
[PHONE RINGS]
[PHONE BEEPS]
Adam, are you okay?
I heard the triplets are here.
Adam, okay, tell me about Lauren.
She lost a lot of blood.
They gave her methylergonovine,
carboprost and misoprostol.
It didn't work.
They finally had to put in
an intrauterine balloon.
She's stable right now, kind of.
But nobody knows
what's causing the bleeding.
If Lauren's blood pressure tanks,
she might have to go back to the OR.
Watson, I can't do this alone.
I can't lose her.
No, you are not gonna lose Lauren.
We're going to figure out
what's wrong with her.
Tell me what you see.
Tune everything else out.
Tell me what you see
when you look at Lauren.
[VOICE BREAKING]:
I see Lauren. I see my fiancée,
and she looks really bad.
Okay. No. Look closer.
Go deeper, Adam. This is it.
This is what
I've been training you to do.
Look.
She's pale.
Paler than she was when I got here.
[BEEPING]
Her BP ticks down
every 90 seconds or so.
There's blood at her IV site.
That's weird, right?
- Yeah. No, that shouldn't be happening.
- [THUNDER CRASHING]
Postdelivery bleeding
wouldn't affect the IV site.
Go see Dr. Malena.
Keep me on the phone
and move as fast as you can.
- They told me the babies are safe?
- Yeah.
- What are their names?
- Olivia, Isabella
and Hamish.
You're on with John Watson.
Dr. Malena, we have to talk
to you about Lauren's C-section.
At the start of the operation,
right before your symptoms got bad,
did you notice anything unusual?
Nothing I was worried about.
But Lauren was on the oozier side.
- More than normal?
- Yes. Again, nothing dramatic,
but I had to cauterize
more than I usually do.
Did I miss something?
Lauren's in DIC.
She probably had a placental
abruption right before the OR.
Her body has used up all
of the clotting factors,
and now, she can't stop bleeding.
You need
to get off the phone right away.
Lauren's in DIC.
She needs FFP and cryo.
Get me back on with the blood bank.
Send a PACU nurse there right now!
[THUNDER CRASHING]
MARY: Lauren's getting treatment.
Okay? We'll know more soon.
I think it's your turn.
I told you everything
that I was leaving out.
Everything
that I was not willing to say.
Now I think it's your turn.
[SCOFFS] Who says
I'm leaving something out?
You did. I mean, you didn't use words,
but it was the way you reacted
when I talked about Josh's new job.
And some other stuff that happened.
You really are an exhausting ride.
You don't have to say anything
at all if you don't want to,
of course, but, uh
I've been waiting for the right time.
I guess there's never
really gonna be one.
Josh has a few job offers.
He wasn't sure if he wanted
to take that gig with the Rams.
He slow-rolled it
for as long he could.
What made him change his mind?
I got approached.
A few months ago,
a headhunter reached out to me.
I blew them off at first,
but they kept coming back.
They're looking for a new chief
medical officer at UCLA Health.
Someone to head up the whole system.
I don't want to leave Pittsburgh.
I don't want to leave home.
But I took the job.
I couldn't not take the job.
I said yes, and then Josh said yes.
I'm leaving UHOP.
I'm moving to California next month.

I brought you daffodils

WATSON: Lauren
responded to the treatment.
The triplets are stable in the NICU.
Hey, Kelly,
you can have your phone back.
- Thank you so much.
- Hey,
you can thank me by taking a
dozen pies back to your friends,
handing 'em out, telling 'em we ship.
Oh, we would be honored.
We're gonna do that.
All right, hey, let's get rolling.
I will upload the directions
back to UHOP.
John Watson.
John Hamish Watson,
I know you've been busy,
but come on now.
Hamish?
That man named his son after you.
He loves you. They all love you.
We are not driving back to Pittsburgh.
We started this day headed
to Baltimore,
and that's exactly
how we're going to end it.
- Okay, but Niles
- But Niles, nothing.
Dr. Niles will make time for us
in the morning.
Isn't that what you always do
when somebody needs your help?
Let's go to Baltimore.
MARY: Hmm.
[BOTH SIGH]
Chief medical officer of UCLA.
They say they're going
to put me on billboards.
You're going to be incredible.
You're going to amaze them all,
every single day.
[MONITOR BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY]
[BABY GRUNTS]
Hi, Olivia.
Hi, my sweetie.
I'm your mom.
I'm so excited to meet you.
You are so perfect.
I love you so much.
Is this how you imagined it?
- It's exactly right.
- [LAUGHS SOFTLY]
It's perfect.
[LAUGHS SOFTLY, SNIFFLES]
- We did it.
- We did it.
Hi.
Hi, my love.
- [SNIFFLES]
- Hi, sweetheart.
[LAUGHS, SNIFFLES]
[LAUGHS]
I love you.
[PHONE CHIMES]
They're ready for me now.
I can officially go meet the triplets.
Stephens, they're infants.
They don't care how you look.
SASHA: But
you look great. You're gonna be great.
Right. Thank you.
I have to go wash my hands.
Don't forget their names.
Olivia, Isabella and Hamish.
Hamish.
I can't believe Adam pulled that.
Kiss ass.
I can feel you lingering.
You don't want to talk
about what happened with Beck.
I get it. I respect that.
But there's something
I got to say to you.
You never should have let Beck
in your life in the first place.
You never should have let him
in my life.
But once you knew, once you saw
Beck for what he really was,
you went over to his place anyway.
You exposed yourself to him,
and you put yourself in danger.
And I appreciate that.
I haven't seen you smile in a while.
That's what Beck wanted, you know.
He couldn't stand
to see someone like you,
strong and kind,
and just leave that alone.
Kind of just feels
like I'm leading with my chin.
That might be the saddest thing
I've ever heard.
Welp, let's see how I feel tomorrow.
Now if you'll excuse me,
I'm gonna go meet those babies,
and then I'm gonna have sex
until my head explodes.
Sounds fun. Let me know
if you need a clean-up crew.
Detective Lestrade.
To what do we owe the pleasure?
I was hoping to have
a quick word with Dr. Derian.
I was looking at our file
on Beck Wythe.
I have a couple questions.
I gave my statement already.
Just want to review a few details.
Now a good time?
After you, Detective.
- [PHONE DINGING]
- SHINWELL: Oh, hey, hey, hey, hey.
- Your phone.
- Hmm?
A message just came through.
- Is it the results?
- Yeah.
You want me to look?
[CARLIN SIGHS]
No.
Yeah. No. Um, I'll do it.
Hey.
It's okay?
It's all going to be all right?
I'm negative.
Negative?
I don't have HIV.
I got to get follow-up labs drawn,
but, uh, yeah, I'm negative.
You've got some paid time off,
coming up, right?
- I do.
- Yeah, three days,
the rest of the week.
You're gonna claim three days off,
and you're gonna let me spoil you.
All right?
Okay, then.
That's settled.
Negative. [GRUNTS]
Hey, I have this idea.
We should get married.
You're serious?
- [DOOR OPENS]
- ANDREWS: Shinwell.
- I've been trying to call you.
- My phone's on "do not disturb."
We need you in the ER.
There's some guy down there,
and he's in bad shape.
We don't know who he is,
we don't know why he's here.
But he's holding a piece of paper,
and it's got your name on it,
and your phone number.
CARLIN: Go.
Go.
I'll take those days.
We can finish this later.
Please don't come to your senses
while I'm down there.
