- (MACHINES BEEPING)
- Dr. Sullivan.
- Dr. Sullivan?
- Breathe.
There's a hole in the
carotid. I need blood.
Temporary clips?
Clock on.
We have five minutes to fix
this before she strokes out.
- Clock's on.
- (BEEPING)
I need to find the rupture
point and fix the hole.
Found it. Get me a 7-0 Prolene suture.
I'm suturing the carotid.
Blood pressure is rising.
Removing the temporary clips.
Okay. Let's hope this works.
Suture's holding. Okay, time?
Two minutes, 56 seconds.
Okay.
(SIGHING)
Let's get the rest of this tumour out.

FRANK: She should be out by now.
Something's wrong.
They said it was gonna
take up to six hours.
It's been longer than that.
I'll go see if I can get an update.
How's Edna?
So, I was able to
remove the entire tumour
from both her carotid
artery and her optic nerves.
Thank God.
Is she okay?
There was a complication.
What kind of complication?
Edna suffered a hemorrhage
during the procedure.
Now, I was able to get the
bleedings under control in time,
but we won't know how
she is until she wakes up.
Can I see her?
- Of course. Follow me.
- Thanks, Maggie.
You all right?
I panicked in there, Cal.
It was just for a second, but I froze.
Hey, hey.
You got the tumour, Maggie.
What if it wasn't enough?
♪
Any change?
She's still not conscious.
She should be awake by now.
What if I didn't get to
that bleed fast enough?
She probably just needs
a little bit more time.
- I hope you're right.
- (PHONE RINGING)
Oh, sorry. I've gotta take this.
Yeah, I want imaging done.
Hey.
Thought you might be hungry.
Oh. I'm too nervous to eat.
You did the best you could.
Now it's up to Edna.
RAFE: Thought we would've
heard something by now.
My friend had brain surgery.
Can take a while for them to wake up.
Um, Rob said you landed on a
design for the new restaurant?
Yeah, yeah.
Can I see it?
Sure. Um, it's in the other room.
Come on.
Um, I'm gonna grab a beer. You want one?
Okay. Sure.
Hey. Um
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure.
It's about Sydney.
Okay.
Did you know she didn't
wanna get married?
Came up the other day
when we were talking about
hosting weddings at the lodge.
I told her she needed
to talk to you about it.
Yeah. Well, she did.
- And?
- I get Syd's a free spirit.
You know, that's one of the things
that attracted me to
her in the first place.
And I know we're not always
gonna see eye to eye on everything,
but this whole not
getting married thing, I
I don't know if that's
something I can get behind.
Well, did you tell her that?
I'm kinda worried
about how she'll take it.
I can tell you that sometimes Sydney,
she just needs a little
push to help her, you know,
- change her mind.
- Yeah.
Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
Yeah.
(MACHINES BEEPING)
Shouldn't she be awake
by now? It's been hours.
MAGGIE: All right, Edna.
We're all here. we're waiting for you.
It's time you wake up.
(SIGHING)
Come back to me. Please.
SULLY: Come on, Edna.
Stop bein' so stubborn.
Wake up, will ya?
(EDNA MUMBLING)
Did she just say something?
I didn't hear anything.
No, I think she did!
I said, who are you
callin' stubborn, Sully?
(RELIEVED SIGHING)
FRANK: Edna. You're awake!
What's with all the long faces?
She can see!
(ALL CHUCKLING)
Oh, careful, my love.
All right.
She's gonna be okay.
I knew you could do it, Maggie.
(SNIFFING)
Thanks for being there for me, Cal.
I'm gonna go call everybody,
tell 'em the good news.
(CHUCKLING)
LOLA: Thank you so much for the update.
(PHONE BEEPING)
That was Cal.
He said that Edna's awake
and she's gonna be fine.
- Really?
- I know, I feel like I can
finally start to breathe again!
Me too.
Sounds like everything's gonna be okay.
There's something I need to tell you.
Okay, what is it?
My advisor called.
The university won't let
me finish my degree here.
Gonna have to head home in a few weeks.
Oh.
I'm really sorry, Lola.
We both knew what we were
getting ourselves into
when we started this.
Yeah. I guess we did,
I just wish I didn't
have to leave so soon.
Me too.
And now, how many fingers am I holding?
- One.
- And now?
Five.
- (CHUCKLING)
- That's great. That's good.
All right, well things might
be blurry for a little while,
but that will clear up.
Thank you, M'Chi.
I'm just glad you're gonna be okay.
Now you should go home and rest.
You've done enough.
Don't you worry about me.
I'll see you soon.
You did an incredible
job today, Dr. Sullivan.
Thank you.
How did it feel being back in the OR?
Honestly, amazing.
Too bad there aren't
any openings around here.
I know.
But I do know someone in Chicago
who's looking for a head neurosurgeon.
I'd be happy to pass
along your information?
How 'bout I get back to you on that.
Okay.
Ah, you're in luck!
Yeah, we got a couple
of cabins available.
Just need a credit card number.
Uh okay.
All right, you'll get an
email confirmation shortly
and uh, we'll see you soon.
- (PHONE BEEPING)
- Good morning.
I have a reservation under Davies.
Oh, looks like you're
in, uh, cabin eight.
Is that a nice one?
Yeah, yeah. The last
guest that stayed there
was a bestselling author.
She she loved it.
That's good to hear.
All right. Towels and sheets
should already be in there.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Oh. Should stop over
to the lodge tonight.
Grand opening of our new restaurant.
Ah. Okay, thanks for letting me know.
- We'll see you soon.
- All right.
(DOOR CLOSING)
(PHONE DIALLING, RINGING INTERNALLY)
HELEN: You've reached Helen Culver.
I can't come to the phone right now
but if you leave your name,
number, and a brief message,
I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
(BEEPING)
Hey. Uh, Helen, it's
Sully. How you doin'?
I don't know if you haven't
already left yet, but um
I just wanted to wish
you safe travels and uh,
yeah, give me a call
if you have any time,
and I'd love to know how
things are going over there.
(PHONE BEEPING)
Where you going?
Uh, to the lodge.
- Already?
- (PHONE VIBRATING)
Yeah, Rob needs me to come down
and help with some last-minute setup.
Taking your dress?
I don't think I'll have
time to come home and change.
But I thought we were
gonna drive down together.
Yeah, I know. I'm sorry.
I just I gotta go.
Look, uh
There's something I was really
hoping I could get off my chest.
Can we just talk for a minute?
Oh, okay.
Um
Look. I, uh I just need you to know
how important getting married is to me.
We're already living together, Rafe.
I don't see the difference.
It's not the same thing.
Marriage is a much bigger commitment.
Really? Because people
get divorced all the time.
Well, I know that. It's just
it definitely makes it a lot harder
to just walk away when
you hit a rough patch.
I made a commitment to you
when I came back from New York.
You don't need to worry.
I'm not going anywhere.
But you threatened
to move back to Rob's.
Only because I thought you
were breaking up with me.
Well, Syd, without that piece of paper,
I'm always gonna feel like
you got one foot out the door.
I know I love you, Rafe.
I don't need a piece
of paper to prove it.
But I do, Sydney.
I have to go over to the lodge, but
I'll see you tonight?
Yeah.
You sounded excited when
you called. What's up?
I looked into it, and it turns out
I was able to put my degree
on hold for two years.
I don't understand.
Why would you do that?
Because I could stay with you here
while you finish your degree
and then we could both move
back to Alberta so I could finish mine.
Thank you.
I'm not sure that's such a good idea.
Why not?
Because I know how much this
degree means to you, and
I worry that if you put
it off for two years,
you might never go back to it.
I look at Frank and Edna's relationship,
and how much they love each other,
and I want that too, Lola.
So do I!
One day.
But
we both still have so
much to experience in life.
And jumping into anything right now
wouldn't make sense for either of us.
And we've only just met.
There's no guarantees this relationship
would even work out.
Thanks for being honest with me.
Where are you going?
I need to call my advisor.
Guess I need to let him know that I'm
gonna be heading back to Alberta soon.
(SIGHING)
- Hey.
- Hey.
Need a hand?
This is the last of 'em.
Think this one's for Rob.
Sydney's been waiting for
a string of lights, so.
Oh, I can take those over in a bit.
I wanted to stop by and see
how things are going anyway.
I just need to call Dr. Rabney
and schedule a follow-up
appointment for Edna.
- She all right?
- Yeah.
Yeah, no, I just like to be
extra cautious with my patients.
Your patients, huh?
You know what I mean.
You know, I can't help but notice
what a good mood you've
been in since the surgery.
Being back in the OR helped me
to put everything that
happened in Boston behind me.
What do you mean?
I don't think I realized how much
that lawsuit was affecting me.
Just, um
feels like a weight's been lifted.
Uh
you know, I I overheard Dr. Rabney
talking about a a job in Chicago?
Yeah. Uh, she mentioned a
friend of hers is hiring.
Are you considering it?
Why would you ask me that?
'Cause you said you'd get back to her.
I was being polite.
Are you sure?
Where is this coming from?
Look, I guess I just wonder,
if you really thought through
what you'd be giving
up when you moved here.
(SCOFFING)
Of course I did.
It's just, watching
you the last few days,
it feels like you're missing your career
a lot more than you'd like to admit.
(SIGHING)
I'm just gonna take this over to Sydney.
ROB: Hey.
So, what do you think?
Well, once it gets dark,
this is going to look very romantic.
ROB: It's a DJ. I thought
we discussed a band.
I told you it was part of
the package deal, remember?
Sure we can afford all that, Syd?
I got this, Rob.
Yeah. Uh, sorry. I'm
just a little nervous,
everything we've went through.
I wonder if everyone's gonna show up.
Oh, I'm sure it's
gonna be a big turnout.
Come on, let's get
you into that kitchen.
It'll help the nerves. (CHUCKLING)
You always know just
the right thing to say.
Let's get cooking!
Those two are looking cozy together.
Yep. They finally made things official.
- That's great.
- Yeah, it is.
Glad someone's getting along.
Things not going well with you and Rafe?
Not really.
What's up?
You remember when we were younger
and I told you that I
never wanted to get married?
Yeah?
Well, I still feel that way.
And Rafe doesn't.
He basically said it's a dealbreaker.
Where does that leave
things between you two?
I'm not sure.
Do you think it's worth losing
him over a piece of paper?
It's not just a piece of paper to me.
Signing it would mean that I'd
be changing who I am for him.
After everything I went
through in New York with David,
I'm not sure I'm
willing to do that again.
But Isn't that what love's
all about? Making sacrifices?
Not if it means giving up
who you are in the process.
Right.
♪
Oh. Thank you for taking
such good care of me, Frank.
I know it isn't easy on you.
I'm just glad you're home, Edna.
I wasn't sure
that I'd ever get a chance
to see this view again.
I know.
I've been thinkin' a
lot about what you said
about not getting to do
the things you wanna do.
Tapwe. It's true.
So, I called a travel
agent about that
tour to Alaska.
- You did?
- Mm-hm.
Once you're back on your feet,
I'm gonna take you to
see those northern lights.
You're the most important
thing in the world to me.
And you deserve to be happy.
Oh, Frank.
But being in the hospital
reminded me that I
need to be more grateful
for what I already have.
I don't need to go on
a cruise to be happy.
All I need is to be right here with you.
(CHUCKLING)
Hey.
Cal go home?
Yeah. He, uh,
he said he needed to go do
something before the party.
Something up? He seemed a
little upset when he left.
What's goin' on, Maggie?
Cal seems to have gotten it in his head
that I'm missing my career.
And are you?
I have to admit, me being
back in the OR did feel good.
But I made a choice when I
moved here, and I love Cal.
I don't think anyone's
questioning that, Maggie.
(EXHALING)
But I know what it's like to wake up
and wonder what your life
could have looked like
if you'd just taken it
in another direction.
And I don't want that to happen to you.
What are you saying, Sully?
Just that I want you to make sure that
you've made the right decision.
♪
Rafe, why don't you head home early?
I'm sure you want to help
Sydney set up for the party.
Actually, I've still got a couple
incident reports I gotta fill out.
You wouldn't happen to be
putting off going to the party
for any reason, would you?
I don't know.
Okay, yeah. Maybe.
I take it you and Sydney still
haven't worked things out?
I took your advice and
I told her how I felt,
and it didn't seem to
make any difference.
Well, it seems then that
you have two options.
Oh, yeah? What are those?
Well, you can either give in
or you can give up.
♪
Cal?
You're dressed already?
Uh, yeah. Promised Rob
I'd go give him a hand.
Can you please tell me
what's going on with you?
Okay, um
Do you remember when I told you
that I'd knocked over a box books?
Yeah.
Well, I found a letter you wrote.
What letter?
This one.
I wrote this years ago, Cal.
Okay, but you were
breaking up with someone
because you were worried
they were getting in the way
of your career.
I'm not that person anymore.
Look, I don't want to be
the one holding you back
from what you love, Maggie.
Are you going somewhere?
I think I should stay
with Sedona for a bit.
Why?
Because you need to figure
out what you really want,
and you can't to do that if I'm here.
This is crazy, Cal.
I love you too much
to let you give up your dreams, Maggie.
You asked me to take a
chance on us, and I did.
Okay? So, why are you
doing all of this now?
Can you promise me you'll never regret
turning your back on your career?
If you can do that, I'll stay.

Magpie.
Hi.
You look beautiful.
Thanks, Frank.
I wanted to check in on Edna
before I went to the party.
She's resting.
Do you have a sec?
Sit.
What's wrong?
Cal just told me he's leaving
for New York after the party.
Why?
Because he thinks that I'm going to
regret giving up my career.
Is he wrong?
That's the problem.
I don't know.
You know, moving here
and being with Cal
it's what I wanted.
But he's right.
(SNIFFLING)
I do miss being a surgeon.
And I can't have both if I stay here.
So, what do I do, Frank?
I don't know how to choose.
You remember the first day
when you came to the Crossing
looking for answers?
I told you the path
from the head to the heart
was a difficult journey.
You need to quiet your mind
long enough to listen to your heart,
because you're the only
person that can decide
which path is the right path.
Thanks, Frank.

You were right,
you really can't see them
like this in the city.
No, you can't.
I'm not going anywhere, Cal.
But what about your career?
I have been so focused
on the path that I thought
I needed to be on that
I couldn't see the one
right in front of me.
I don't understand.
Being a doctor is who I am,
and it's who I'll always be,
but I'm also a Sullivan,
and the Crossing is my home.
And both of those sides
are equally important to me.
So
There is freedom within ♪
What if there was a
way I could to do both?
But I thought there
weren't any jobs here.

It's been longer than that.
I'll go see if I can get an update.
How's Edna?
So, I was able to
remove the entire tumour
from both her carotid
artery and her optic nerves.
Thank God.
Is she okay?
There was a complication.
What kind of complication?
Edna suffered a hemorrhage
during the procedure.
Now, I was able to get the
bleedings under control in time,
but we won't know how
she is until she wakes up.
Can I see her?
- Of course. Follow me.
- Thanks, Maggie.
You all right?
I panicked in there, Cal.
It was just for a second, but I froze.
Hey, hey.
You got the tumour, Maggie.
What if it wasn't enough?
♪
Any change?
She's still not conscious.
She should be awake by now.
What if I didn't get to
that bleed fast enough?
She probably just needs
a little bit more time.

Yeah, I want imaging done.
Hey.
Thought you might be hungry.
Oh. I'm too nervous to eat.
You did the best you could.
Now it's up to Edna.
RAFE: Thought we would've
heard something by now.
My friend had brain surgery.
Can take a while for them to wake up.
Um, Rob said you landed on a
design for the new restaurant?
Yeah, yeah.
Can I see it?
Sure. Um, it's in the other room.
Come on.
Um, I'm gonna grab a beer. You want one?
Okay. Sure.
Hey. Um
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure.
It's about Sydney.
Okay.
Did you know she didn't
wanna get married?
Came up the other day
when we were talking about
hosting weddings at the lodge.
I told her she needed
to talk to you about it.
Yeah. Well, she did.
- And?
- I get Syd's a free spirit.
You know, that's one of the things
that attracted me to
her in the first place.
And I know we're not always
gonna see eye to eye on everything,
but this whole not
getting married thing, I
I don't know if that's
something I can get behind.
Well, did you tell her that?
I'm kinda worried
about how she'll take it.
I can tell you that sometimes Sydney,
she just needs a little
push to help her, you know,
- change her mind.
- Yeah.
Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
Yeah.
(MACHINES BEEPING)
Shouldn't she be awake

No, I think she did!

He said that Edna's awake

- I know, I feel like I can

Me too.
Sounds like everything's gonna be okay.
There's something I need to tell you.
Okay, what is it?
My advisor called.
The university won't let
me finish my degree here.
Gonna have to head home in a few weeks.
Oh.
I'm really sorry, Lola.
We both knew what we were
getting ourselves into
when we started this.
Yeah. I guess we did,
I just wish I didn't
have to leave so soon.
Me too.
And now, how many fingers am I holding?

Now you should go home and rest.
You've done enough.
Don't you worry about me.
I'll see you soon.
You did an incredible
job today, Dr. Sullivan.
Thank you.
How did it feel being back in the OR?
Honestly, amazing.
Too bad there aren't
any openings around here.
I know.
But I do know someone in Chicago
who's looking for a head neurosurgeon.
I'd be happy to pass
along your information?
How 'bout I get back to you on that.
Okay.
Ah, you're in luck!
Yeah, we got a couple

Just need a credit card number.
Uh okay.
All right, you'll get an

She she loved it.
That's good to hear.
All right. Towels and sheets

Let me know if you have any questions.

There's something I was really
hoping I could get off my chest.
Can we just talk for a minute?
Oh, okay.
Um
Look. I, uh I just need you to know
how important getting married is to me.
We're already living together, Rafe.
I don't see the difference.
It's not the same thing.
Marriage is a much bigger commitment.
Really? Because people
get divorced all the time.
Well, I know that. It's just
it definitely makes it a lot harder
to just walk away when
you hit a rough patch.
I made a commitment to you
when I came back from New York.
You don't need to worry.
I'm not going anywhere.
But you threatened
to move back to Rob's.
Only because I thought you
were breaking up with me.
Well, Syd, without that piece of paper,
I'm always gonna feel like
you got one foot out the door.
I know I love you, Rafe.
I don't need a piece
of paper to prove it.
But I do, Sydney.
I have to go over to the lodge, but
I'll see you tonight?
Yeah.
You sounded excited when
you called. What's up?
I looked into it, and it turns out
I was able to put my degree
on hold for two years.
I don't understand.
Why would you do that?
Because I could stay with you here
while you finish your degree
and then we could both move
back to Alberta so I could finish mine.
Thank you.
I'm not sure that's such a good idea.
Why not?
Because I know how much this
degree means to you, and
I worry that if you put
it off for two years,
you might never go back to it.
I look at Frank and Edna's relationship,
and how much they love each other,
and I want that too, Lola.
So do I!
One day.
But
we both still have so
much to experience in life.
And jumping into anything right now
wouldn't make sense for either of us.
And we've only just met.
There's no guarantees this relationship
would even work out.
Thanks for being honest with me.
Where are you going?
I need to call my advisor.
Guess I need to let him know that I'm
gonna be heading back to Alberta soon.
(SIGHING)
- Hey.
- Hey.
Need a hand?
This is the last of 'em.
Think this one's for Rob.
Sydney's been waiting for
a string of lights, so.
Oh, I can take those over in a bit.
I wanted to stop by and see
how things are going anyway.
I just need to call Dr. Rabney
and schedule a follow-up
appointment for Edna.
- She all right?
- Yeah.
Yeah, no, I just like to be
extra cautious with my patients.
Your patients, huh?
You know what I mean.
You know, I can't help but notice
what a good mood you've
been in since the surgery.
Being back in the OR helped me
to put everything that
happened in Boston behind me.
What do you mean?
I don't think I realized how much
that lawsuit was affecting me.
Just, um
feels like a weight's been lifted.
Uh
you know, I I overheard Dr. Rabney
talking about a a job in Chicago?
Yeah. Uh, she mentioned a
friend of hers is hiring.
Are you considering it?
Why would you ask me that?
'Cause you said you'd get back to her.
I was being polite.
Are you sure?
Where is this coming from?
Look, I guess I just wonder,
if you really thought through
what you'd be giving
up when you moved here.
(SCOFFING)
Of course I did.
It's just, watching
you the last few days,
it feels like you're missing your career
a lot more than you'd like to admit.
(SIGHING)
I'm just gonna take this over to Sydney.
ROB: Hey.
So, what do you think?
Well, once it gets dark,
this is going to look very romantic.
ROB: It's a DJ. I thought
we discussed a band.
I told you it was part of
the package deal, remember?
Sure we can afford all that, Syd?
I got this, Rob.
Yeah. Uh, sorry. I'm
just a little nervous,
everything we've went through.
I wonder if everyone's gonna show up.
Oh, I'm sure it's
gonna be a big turnout.
Come on, let's get
you into that kitchen.
It'll help the nerves. (CHUCKLING)
You always know just
the right thing to say.
Let's get cooking!
Those two are looking cozy together.
Yep. They finally made things official.
- That's great.
- Yeah, it is.
Glad someone's getting along.
Things not going well with you and Rafe?
Not really.
What's up?
You remember when we were younger
and I told you that I
never wanted to get married?
Yeah?
Well, I still feel that way.
And Rafe doesn't.
He basically said it's a dealbreaker.
Where does that leave
things between you two?
I'm not sure.
Do you think it's worth losing
him over a piece of paper?
It's not just a piece of paper to me.
Signing it would mean that I'd
be changing who I am for him.
After everything I went
through in New York with David,
I'm not sure I'm
willing to do that again.
But Isn't that what love's
all about? Making sacrifices?
Not if it means giving up
