Doc (US) (2025) s02e05 Episode Script

(AMY): Previously on Doc.
I had a car accident,
lost a lot of my memory.
When you look at him,
all you see is the man
who you think let your son die.
You have to leave him.
I'm handing over my own rape kit.
No more hiding.
- What'd you tell him?
- That you have a thing for him.
Joan knows about the code.
If you both intend to stay
here, it ends immediately.
Amy, she's not wrong.
This can't happen again.
My father was a doctor here.
If I resign, will you not
put any of this in my file?
I've been having memory seizures.
I feel like my brain
is trying to warn me.
Okay, just tell me,
because I don't understand.
Why are parents of kindergarteners
talking to me about college?
It's like, let your kid master
the art of wiping himself
before fantasizing about him
at Stanford.
Wh
Hello?!
You flew in to help
with my stressful week!
You're not helping!
- Wha
- Excuse me, ladies.
She'll have something
with alcohol. Dealer's choice.
So, are you planning to see
Mom while you're here?
We had a fight. We're not talking.
What did she do this time?
When I tell you, you're gonna die.
Jess?
Jess?
(LIGHT MUSIC)
Mom? Are you okay?
Well, for the last four days,
I keep flashing on
that damn snow globe.
- You don't remember it, right?
- I don't.
And it doesn't seem like this
is helping you.
My mind is trying to tell me something.
(JINGLING)
Hi, Sweetie.
All right. Can you give Dad a fist bump?
All right.
Let's get you in there.
Heads up, she had three waffles.
And how, exactly, did that happen?
Well, like her mother,
she's a persuasive negotiator.
Please. She'd be disbarred
in a heartbeat
for never holding up her end
of the deal.
Oh, before I forget, would you
mind swapping weekends?
David has a work thing,
he'd like me to go.
Oh, that sounds exciting.
But if you've got plans,
I'll figure it out.
No, no, it's fine. I'm wide open.
Still not seeing anyone?
(SCOFFS) We've been divorced long enough
to dip a toe in these waters.
Ah, I thought I'd give it
another 10 years.
Come on. I still worry about you!
There is somebody, but it's, um
Some pretty serious obstacles
at the moment, so
- Intriguing.
- Yeah. I wish.
You've always been
too much of a romantic.
My Achilles heel.
You know what they say:
If you can't be with the one
you love, you?
Yeah, that's more your move.
Whoa, whoa. Sorry.
No problem.
- Morning.
- Morning.
Haven't seen you in a few days.
Did you want to?
Look, I know this is it's weird.
Um, so I asked Dr. Ridley to keep us
on different cases for a while.
You're Chief Resident.
Whatever you think is best.
Early in the year for snow globes.
Oh, yeah, I just, um,
uh Never mind.
No, what?
I've been having these memory hits.
Sometimes I see a person,
hear what they're saying
in the past, but sometimes
it's just these flashing images.
Memory seizures. I've read about that.
And they may not even be real, right?
The things you think are memories?
Yeah, but the last time, it-it was.
I was able to figure it out.
Must all be so trippy.
Yeah. That's one word for it.
Hey, just so you know, it's 9:06,
and there's someone watching.
So, Amy's back in the saddle,
Joan is running the show,
and everything's settled
with you and Nora at home?
Well, if everything's settled
with the Board,
is what we really need
to be talking about.
We seem to have smoothed
things over with UNOS,
so as long as there's no harm,
it'll be no foul.
I appreciate whatever you did.
You can repay me by wooing
the whale I've got on the line.
- An investor?
- High-profile investor
interested in donating
at least 10 million.
There are several departments
that could really use
an influx of cash
I want it for Labor and Delivery.
Turning our birthing center
into something boutique.
Which would be a real revenue
generator for the hospital.
- (KNOCKING)
- Hi. I was told to come here?
Ah, Dr. Maitra!
Perfect timing.
The donor I told you about
just happens to be her father.
Who has specifically requested
your presence on today's tour.
He should be here soon.
I've already cleared it with Dr. Ridley.
So, have fun.
Oh, and I'd like a check in my hand
by the end of the day.
I just can't believe it.
That has never happened to me before.
In fairness, fainting's
supposed to be a surprise.
I just got off with Frank.
He's ditched his big conference
and catching the first flight home.
You got one of
the last good ones, I think.
Last guy I dated refused to leave
his fantasy football draft
when I got a flat tire.
- Ugh.
- Mm-hmm.
This is my sister, Casey.
I had a long, very stressful week,
so she flew in from New York
for some girl-bonding time
while my husband's out of town.
And we all know,
the best bonding happens
in hospitals, right? (ALL CHUCKLING)
(KNOCKING AT DOOR)
Hey. I'm Dr. Heller,
I'll be working with Dr. Clark.
Um, do we have a diagnosis?
Looks like a pretty standard
vasovagal event.
I'm not even gonna ask what that means.
Sudden nervous system misfire
caused a drop in her heart rate
and blood pressure.
That's what made her faint.
It's common, usually harmless.
We'll do an EKG just to be safe.
Oh, thank you both so much.
You're gonna be fine!
Yeah, I know. Do you think I'm deaf?
I'm right here.
And, I would argue, more invested
in my doctor's prognosis than you are.
Okay, I-I just wanted
to make sure you're
Do you want to give me an EKG?
Doctors, can my sister give me an EKG?
She loves getting
overly involved in my life.
- Jess!
- Unfortunately, there is some
training involved. Any cardiac ectopy?
None. Normal sinus rhythm
since I've been here.
No! Jess!
- What the hell?!
- Hold on, hold on.
- Don't touch her.
- My apartment, my rules, Casey!
- What is happening?
- She's asleep.
She's fully asleep right now.
I am taking back control!
You are my guest,
so start acting like it!
We'll set up a sleep study ASAP.
I'm sorry, I should've caught that.
Don't worry. It was a very subtle shift.
You're a first-year resident.
I hope Dr. Ridley doesn't hear
I missed something so big.
I swear I'll be on top of it next time.
Hannah, there's gonna be
plenty you don't know.
There are still things I don't
know, and I'm Chief Resident.
It's gonna be okay. Our job here
is to teach you, not scare you.
It came on faster than usual,
but the moment Sal started
acting like an insane person
Dawn, Dawn, you're making it
sound worse than it was.
You made Missy cry.
He called our spin instructor
a size-four monster,
but she's really a size two,
so it was a thing.
Anyway, like the doctor told me,
I poured two packets of sugar
into a bottle of orange juice,
made him drink it.
And, for like 30 seconds, he was normal.
But then he started seizing.
I was terrified, so I called 911.
Two units on board.
Did you eat before spin class?
I put a cookies-and-cream
protein bar in his bag,
but, of course, he didn't eat it.
It tastes more like cookies-and-drywall.
Look, I get why my blood sugar
was low. But why did I seize?
It sounds like you overexerted
yourself on an empty stomach
and that caused the hypoglycemic crash.
Dawn, OJ was the right call.
But you might have overshot
the mark with the sugar.
So, we've given you a small dose
of insulin,
and that should bring your sugar down.
And you should be stable in a minute.
Thank you, Doctor.
So, you were diagnosed
with diabetes eight months ago.
Can I ask you if you've made
any changes to your diet?
Not just his diet,
we overhauled his entire lifestyle.
Both of ours.
Last six months, we've been eating clean
and working out every day.
We each lost about 10 pounds
and when we plateaued,
our doctor recommended Ozempic.
Are you a diabetic too?
No, but it's a godsend.
For her. Not so much for me.
We'll find the right dose, sweetie.
I don't, I don't feel right.
- (MACHINES BEEPING)
- (DAWN): Sal, what's happening?
Sal, what's happening?
- Excuse me.
- Heart rate's low. Weak pulse.
Blood sugar's at 45?
- But you only gave him
- Two units.
Okay, well, that's not enough
to drop it that low.
- Get the D50!
- Sal?! Oh, my God. Sal!
Sal? Hold on.
(SPUTTERING)
(TICKING)
(SIGHS)
I guess she's not coming.
The time is still yours, Katie.
Anything you want to share?
Not really.
You know you can say anything.
There's nothing to say, Dad.
Not without her here.
Katie, please.
When you keep things inside,
it's so bad for you.
Fine!
She came home last night
while he was helping me
with homework, and walked right by us
like we weren't even there.
I know that must have
been very painful
Then he tells me, "She'll come around."
After two years!
He's still making excuses for her.
Michael?
I'm sorry.
- I didn't mean to minimize
- You just keep acting like
what's happening isn't real!
How is that gonna help?!
(DOOR RUMBLING)
(SOFT MUSIC)
The insulin dose we gave him
shouldn't have caused his sugar
to crash like that,
which tells me the orange juice
and sugar wasn't the cause
of his earlier spike.
Glucose is 122. Back in the safe zone.
What is going on with him?
He has something called
brittle diabetes,
which means that his blood sugar
swings wildly;
it can crash or spike without warning.
For him to survive, we need
to keep it in a very tight range.
"For him to survive"?
He's walking a tightrope.
The only way to stop it is to figure out
what's messing with his metabolism.
Let's get a CT scan, stat.
I'll call radiology.
I've never done anything
in my sleep but snore.
Frank would've told me.
This can come on suddenly.
God, what if it's a brain tumor?
'Kay, I know you can't help it,
but let's not jump
to worst-case scenarios.
Casey is right. There's plenty
of other explanations,
and most are far less serious
than a tumor,
but the sleep study
will give us a clearer idea
of what's going on, okay?
When you wake up,
we'll have some answers. Okay?
So where do we go while we wait?
Um well, I've got other
patients to take care of,
but the, uh, the waiting room,
that's probably your best bet.
That makes sense.
What with me not being a doctor and all.
But I'll let you know
as soon as I know anything.
Okay.
Sorry you got dragged into this.
It's fine. I'm happy to help.
I looked him up quickly.
He's quite a philanthropist.
Yeah, he's a really good guy.
You've been here almost four years.
Any idea why he's doing this now?
No, we don't really talk
about his agendas.
And here he is.
My Sonya.
Dad, this is Dr. Michael Hamda,
our Chief Medical Officer.
Max was singing your praises.
Pleasure to meet you.
The pleasure's mine. And thank
you for your interest in Obstetrics.
Yes, Max suggested it was the department
where I could truly make an impact.
This way then?
I heard your patient seized.
I reversed it with a D50 bolus.
Hyperglycemia right on
the heels of hypoglycemia?
I'm surprised brittle diabetes
wasn't your first thought.
It was on the list. But he eats well,
he exercises, he's even on Ozempic,
so something's not adding up.
I'm scanning
for a pancreatic mass.
Possibly an exocrine tumor.
Well, that'd be a hoot.
I haven't seen one of those in 30 years.
GLP-1's can mask a lot
of underlying issues.
Yes. And this new fad
of using them for weight loss
is a ticking time bomb.
Still, doctors hand them out
like fun-size Butterfingers
at Halloween.
They can be very effective
when used properly.
They're a shortcut. Patients
end up like a scarecrow
and then balloon again
the second they go off the meds.
I wish the Danes would
manufacture a pill
that made people
more disciplined instead.
That is a bit reductive.
They reset maladaptive appetite triggers
so that willpower has a chance
against biology.
They're a crutch.
Even with a Higher Power,
alcoholics have to choose
to stop drinking.
The switch gets flipped
only when they flip it.
Free will is an illusion.
We're all just molecular
checkers floating in the abyss.
Acting like gods, but utterly
powerless over our destinies.
Darrin's our resident philosopher.
Bit of a nihilist, apparently.
(MEDICAL MACHINES BEEPING)
Hm. Pancreas is clear. No tumor.
Okay. It's 10 years ago. 3 AM your time.
I have just called from Nepal
because I can't figure this out.
There's no judgment. No boss.
Just a sick patient and two old friends.
What do you tell me to do?
A small bowel aspirate
and a methane breath test.
SIBO.
Not bad, Dr. Larsen. Not bad at all.
Positive methane breath test
confirmed by a small bowel aspirate.
It's a SIBO infection, all right.
- Huh.
- Don't know how you saw that coming.
It was a team effort.
Hm. Also, check out his triglycerides.
They're through the roof.
Are you sure these are right?
- Mm-hmm.
- Okay. Tests confirmed
Sal has a SIBO infection.
Which explains the brittle diabetes,
the blood sugar swings.
It's rare, but, uh, it can be
treated with antibiotics.
Oh. But why did it happen?
Underlying causes are usually dietary.
What do you mean "dietary"?
Um, excess processed carbs,
fatty foods
That doesn't make sense.
He's been eating so well.
I'm afraid that's not
what the bloodwork shows.
Sal?
What did you do?
I've been cheating.
With fast food, donuts.
Pretty much anything
I pass on the way home.
But you couldn't have
eaten much. The Ozempic
I stopped taking it four months ago.
It made me nauseous and miserable,
and then when I stopped
taking it, I was always hungry,
so I started sneaking.
Going to drive-thrus.
Pay cash. Leave the wrappers
in the neighbor's trash bin.
You've been doing all that
behind my back?
I need some air.
I know I shouldn't eat like that.
But when I'm tired or I'm stressed,
- I lose control.
- I get it.
Food's all I think about.
It's all I care about.
There is something wrong with me.
There's nothing's wrong with you, Sal.
Whether it's food or work or alcohol,
everyone has something
that slips out of control.
But that doesn't mean you can't
take back control.
How? I'm obsessed.
You need to have the right support.
- Dawn's been supporting me.
- Dawn is your wife.
She can't also be your coach,
your dietician, your trainer.
Let me bring in a professional.
Yes, please.
(BREATHING SHAKILY)
I need this to stop.
Can you paint me a picture of
what $10 million could achieve?
Well, that could fund private
recovery suites,
cutting-edge neonatal tech,
the kind of upgrades that turn
hospitals into headlines.
Hm.
Shona, show me where you work.
- You mean, um
- Internal Medicine.
I'd like to see it.
If you really want bang for your buck,
there's a much more expansive role
that money could play there.
I'd be curious to know about it.
But in any case, I want to see
where my daughter spends all her time.
Follow me.
No, don't you dare, Frank!
My mother may be a narcissist,
but yours is a stalker!
Oh, this is getting good.
Why did Casey buy me jeans
just to make me feel bad?
I gave you those jeans
cause when I wore them,
- you said you loved them!
- I couldn't tell
- they were high-waisted!
- So?
Casey knows I can't
do high-waisted with my short torso!
- (SIGHS)
- Liz.
Well, at least we know
you sleep talk the truth.
There's also some good news
on the medical front:
It's not a tumor.
So, what is it?
Looks like temporal lobe epilepsy.
It's a part of your brain,
it processes emotion, memory, language.
Anything stressful going on lately?
Yeah, she just finished
two weeks of brutal
- parent-teacher meetings.
- It's that bad?
Have you met the parents
of a kindergartener
in private school?
No matter what their kid does,
they interpret it
as the misunderstood behavior
- of a genius.
- Yeah, I think I might be one
of those parents. My daughter,
she's finishing up kindergarten now.
Well, since you're a doctor,
I'd buy that your kid
could be a genius, right?
So, Jess, we're gonna get you started
on an anti-epileptic.
We'll monitor,
adjust the dose from there.
Thank you.
He wasn't wearing a ring,
I just assumed he was single!
Hello?! I have epilepsy!
Jess, I know the word sounds scary,
but this form is very treatable.
And with the right meds,
there's a good chance
you won't even notice it.
Uh, just so you know, he's divorced.
(SIGHS)
And down here, we have
the Internal Medicine office
with an all-purpose space.
And here, we have Dr Larsen
Ah, Dr. Larsen.
We met at the fundraiser
three years ago.
Right after Sonya started as an intern.
I'm, I'm so sorry, I don't
I'm sure all businessmen
in suits blur together,
but you were very kind about Sonya.
Well, she's an excellent doctor.
She would've been excellent
at anything she chose to do,
but I'm very proud she chose
this selfless profession.
Mr. Maitra's considering
a sizable donation for Obstetrics.
Oh, great, though we could really
use support in this department.
Exactly what I was telling him.
Please, don't let me keep you.
- It was nice to see you again.
- You too.
Well, this was very edifying.
Thank you for such
a comprehensive tour, Dr. Hamda.
Our pleasure. Uh, please,
let me know if you have
any other questions or
If you wouldn't mind,
could I steal Sonya away
- for a quick lunch?
- Oh, I really can't.
I have so many patients
But I understood that Dr. Ridley
had excused your absence.
No, actually. She just texted me. I
She really needs me back.
Ah, I understand. Of course.
Your mother would love to see
you this week for dinner if you're able.
I'll let you know.
I'm gonna get back to work.
Please. Right this way.
- Where's Sal?
- I went downstairs
to get a coffee.
Thought you took him for tests.
No.
Is there a vending machine
on this floor?
(VENDING MACHINE BEEPS)
What the hell is wrong with you?
We're in a hospital!
All because you won't stop
eating garbage
that's gonna kill you!
And, and what about me?
What am I supposed to do
if something happens to you?
I messed up.
I'm not gonna stand here
and watch you kill yourself!
- I'm sorry.
- I'm done with you.
Dawn!
- Dawn!
- Honey?
Is she okay? Dawn! Dawn!
- Dawn, honey!
- Need a crash cart now!
- Got it.
- (SAL): What's happening to her?
What's happening?
When parents are unified,
it provides stability for the kids.
But when they have different ideas,
it can get tough.
Sometimes one parent feels like
they have to defend the other
to maintain that stability.
What I heard you say last week, Katie,
is that you want your Dad
to start telling more of his truth.
I don't think he can do that.
Michael?
I really don't want to start
bad-mouthing your mother. I
Katie. Katie!
I understand how you feel
No, you're just doing the same
thing over and over again!
Michael. She needs you to say
you don't like how Amy's acting.
That you know Amy's hurting her
and it's not right.
It's not right.
It's not right.
I'm not here to pressure you. (SIGHS)
- No?
- No.
I want to know what's
going on so I can help you.
You remember Ravi Dahr?
Well, he's the son of my
father's business partner.
And when he attacked me,
my mother was the only one I told.
She made me promise
never to tell anyone else.
And I kept that promise.
For five years.
But when Ravi was arrested,
it all came out.
Let's just say, my father's reaction
hasn't been what I would have liked.
He blames you?
He just can't face it.
Neither of them can.
They certainly don't wanna
talk about it.
So you don't see them.
I've been working very hard
in therapy to sort out
what I'm gonna say,
how I'm gonna say it,
and when I'll be ready to.
And it's not gonna be at lunch
in the hospital cafeteria
or dinner this week.
I am so sorry you were put
in this position.
You know, I put myself
through med school
so I wouldn't be beholden to them.
So this just feels beyond gross.
Him coming in here with his money,
trying to lift his leg on my territory.
Is it possible he's just desperate
to find a way to make it up to you?
You're telling me to forgive him.
Absolutely not. It's not my place
- to tell you anything.
- You are my boss.
Not right now I'm not.
It just, it feels like this might
be an opportunity for you.
To let him have it.
Give him a chance to step up.
I know how it feels
to have your family torn apart
because it's too hard
to deal with grief.
The only way through it is through it.
What happened?
Her heart decompensated
due to malnutrition.
She lost 26% of her body weight
in two months. Thanks to GLP-1s.
The abuse of GLP-1s.
We need to reintroduce nutrition slowly
to avoid re-feeding syndrome.
And you have to get her
to stop the meds.
Whatever she was hoping for
when she started this,
this can't be the ending
that she wanted.
Jess is sleeping.
I ran a loading dose of Keppra,
checked the levels.
It's in the therapeutic range,
so I feel good about it.
- Good job, Dr. Clark.
- Did you know that
Casey's a makeup artist to the stars?
She's done everyone
from Lady Gaga to Zendaya.
How cool is that?
That's, that's good to know.
I need you to help me
convince Jess to quit teaching.
Because if stress lowers
the seizure threshold,
I think it's just
It's too risky of a job,
and I don't want her seizing
every time it's parent-teacher week.
So, here's the thing
with temporal lobe epilepsy,
it's not just about triggers.
It's the cumulative load.
It's, it's, it's the tonnage.
- Okay.
- And, you know having her
extremely charismatic,
impossible-to-ignore sister
show up when she's already had
a very stressful week
I'm sorry, are you saying
I gave my sister epilepsy?
No, no, of course not.
Epilepsy is something she has.
But I am saying that
standing next to you,
someone who fills every room
she walks into,
that could be taking a toll
on Jess that she just
she hasn't fully processed yet.
Jess and I aren't like that.
You obviously know nothing
about our relationship.
- I don't
- Jess?
- I always knew you were the favorite.
- Oh God.
The fun, successful sister.
I made my peace with that.
Let's get you back to your room.
But you don't get to steal my doctor.
(CLEARING THROAT)
Okay. Maybe you're right.
- Is she okay?
- She's fine. She's stable.
But she needs help.
She's been starving herself.
It's my fault. I lied. I binged.
I pushed her to the brink.
She never would've started the shots
if I wasn't such a fat loser!
Hey! This is not on you! Okay?
We all make enough bad choices
by ourselves.
We don't need to take responsibility
for other people's too.
Why don't you tell me about
your relationship with food?
I've been on some kind of diet
since I was seven years old.
My mom and dad meant well, but
Both fat kids who didn't
want me to suffer like they did.
They were always
watching everything I ate.
Saying, "You don't want that."
In front of my friends
Girls
I grew up feeling like
my parents loved me more
when I was in shape.
That must have been really painful.
I guess when Dawn took over
my diet, it all came back.
In the beginning,
she loved me how I was.
We'd make big meals,
go out to nice dinners.
She doesn't want to do that anymore.
I love her,
but it feels like she can't love
me unless I change, like she did.
And I want to.
I want to do that for her.
But you can't get healthy for Dawn.
You have to do it for yourself.
What if I can't?
What is happening to you
is not your fault.
But getting better
that is your choice.
Over the past few weeks,
Katie's been working
with her dad on being more
honest with her feelings,
so we felt it was the right time
to get you two together
and see what's going on.
Katie?
They're gonna get a divorce.
What makes you say that?
I saw on her phone,
she was looking for apartments.
- You took my phone?
- Amy.
- That's not the issue here.
- I'm sorry.
You're sorry? To her?
Is it true?
That you're looking at apartments?
- Yes.
- Does Michael know this?
Not unless Katie told him.
I didn't.
What made you want to look
through your mother's phone?
Were you looking
for something in particular?
I wanted to read their texts.
Anything you want to share?
Or ask about?
Are you sure?
I don't understand
how you can just give up on him.
Hey.
- First day back.
- Yeah,
just, uh, checking in on you.
- I'm good.
- I know you were having
a strong reaction to the things
you were remembering.
Yeah, well, you know,
I spent the last four days
scrolling through a million
snow globes online.
- (CHUCKLES)
- Not that I know
what I'm looking for.
Just that there's snow.
- And a globe.
- Yeah. Those would be
the two main ingredients.
That must be like living in
an episode of "Black Mirror."
Oh, sorry. It's, um,
kinda like "The Twilight Zone."
Oh, yeah, I'm ready for Rod Serling
to just come around the corner
and explain it all to me.
(CHUCKLES)
Hey. Looks like Dawn's waking up.
Okay.
What happened?
You passed out.
From malnutrition.
- (SCOFFS)
- I'm fine.
I just didn't eat enough today.
Stupid, I know.
I swear it won't happen again.
This isn't about today.
Your labs indicate
that this has been building
for some time.
Probably since you started
taking the medication.
I like how I look.
How I feel.
Do you like how you feel right now?
When Sal got the diagnosis,
we started the diet
and the workouts to help him.
I never thought about
how much I weighed.
Or how I looked.
But I knew he wouldn't stick
to it unless we did it together.
At first, I hated every sit-up,
every carrot stick.
But then I started losing weight.
And people noticed
saying I looked amazing.
Not even in my 30's did I ever
think I looked amazing.
I felt lighter across the board.
Less worried about Sal.
And somewhere along the way,
I think it wasn't about him anymore.
I can't make you stop
taking the medication.
But I need you to hear me
when I say that this behavior
is the same behavior
that made you so furious with Sal.
No, it's not. Sal is having an affair
with the drive-thru. He lied to me.
And you think he's killing himself.
Yes.
And what do you think that you're doing?
You summoned?
(SPEAKING BENGALI)
(BIRDS CHIRPING)
You put me in a messed-up
situation today.
I only wanted to make
(SPEAKING BENGALI)
Do you think that's what I want
after everything I've been through?
Sorry, Shona, I didn't think you'd have
this type of reaction
(SHOUTING IN BENGALI)
"How would it feel, Sonya,
if I donated $10 million
to your hospital?
Would that feel good for you?
Or would that feel, I don't know,
manipulative and twisted
and totally tone-deaf?"
I don't understand. (EXHALES)
All I want is to be able
to talk about what happened.
How it hurt me.
How what mom did hurt me.
And for you to be able to just hear me
without making excuses
and trying to make it better
or, or make it go away.
Can you understand that?
I'm an old-fashioned man, Sonya.
I just didn't know what to do.
I just told you, Baba.
Did you hear me?
(SONYA CRYING)
I'll try, my dear. I promise you.
I will try.
Hey.
The meds weren't strong enough.
So we had to implant
a vagal nerve stimulator.
This is gonna help regulate
your misfiring signals.
No more epileptiform activity,
Jess. So, you're clear.
Would you two mind giving us the room?
I wanna talk to my sister.
I know you don't like spoilers.
But it starts with me apologizing.
- Thanks.
- Yeah.
You scared the hell outta me.
I know.
I'm sorry, Sal.
At first, I thought this was my fault.
The truth is, we both have issues
and we've both been lying.
I wasn't the one sneaking
No, you were just starving yourself.
Really, you're gonna judge me?
You judged me.
Watching me all the time,
breathing down my neck,
trying to control everything.
You made it worse.
You made me wanna eat.
I was trying to save your life!
Just stop it! You know
This is what I'm talking about.
Stop fighting all the time
and listen to what I'm saying.
You hurt me.
I didn't mean to hurt you. I love you.
- I love you, too.
- Hm.
And I'm gonna try to be healthy.
I'm gonna do it for real this time.
But I'm gonna do it for me,
not cause I have a gun to my head.
Thank you. That's amazing.
I want you to stop taking the shots.
- Sal
- I miss the way you were before.
- Well, I don't.
- I'm not gonna sit here
and watch you kill yourself either.
I'm not gonna beg you, Dawn.
You need to see the truth
and you need to do this
for yourself.
Promise me you'll stop taking the shots?
Well done with the Murphys.
Treating more than one
patient on the same case
can be very tricky.
Sadly, I'm not sure
the marriage is gonna last.
- Oh, it won't.
- (GASPS)
Better they act on it sooner than later.
(CHUCKLES)
That why you told me
to leave Michael five years ago?
- You remembered that.
- I did.
Telling a friend the truth
always has risks,
but you were worth it.
That was the dinner I asked you
about your first day back.
Obviously, I didn't put it together
I've lost eight years of memory
and all of my relationships
seem to have changed.
So
it's a bit unsteadying.
We haven't changed.
And for what it's worth,
I'm proud of how you handled
yourself during that time.
I know, you don't hear that very much.
That's worth a lot.
Why then did you go to Jake,
instead of me,
to put a roadblock up there?
He's your superior.
More appropriate that I talk to him.
But I am open to hearing
why you think that relationship
is a good idea
from a professional standpoint.
There's a reason they call it
"tough love."
But it is love.
And how's my little guy?
He misses you. Mama misses you, too.
- (KNOCKING AT DOOR)
- Come in!
Tell him I love him
and I've been working super hard
on my swaddling at the office.
- (CHUCKLES)
- Why do I doubt that?
- I love you.
- Love you.
I'll see you at home in a bit.
(EXHALES)
Paternity leave was a little shorter
than they might've liked. (CHUCKLING)
Hey, um, I just wanted to say thank you.
I spoke to my father and it was
the start of something, I hope.
I'm so glad.
But now you're in a pretty bad position
with Max and the board.
Plenty of billionaires who want to see
their names on plaques.
Why do I feel like you're just
saying that to make me feel better?
So what if I am?
(AMY): When I saw this, it reminded me
of how much you used to love
to go skating
at The Oval on the day
after Thanksgiving.
(SCOFFS)
(KATIE): Take it. I don't want it.
Katie
Look, I know this has been hard,
but I really want to try
to make things better.
Okay. How 'bout moving back home?
We have talked about this so many times.
Actually, we haven't.
You just decided for everyone.
It has been two years.
And you decided
that you wanted to go live
with your dad full-time.
You didn't just give up on him.
You gave up on me.
Sweetheart.
- Come here.
- Don't touch me!
I don't want you to be so upset.
Stop! The only thing
you care about is Danny!
He's gone and that's still
all that matters!
How was your shift?
Uh good.
No more snow globes?
When urgency becomes obsession,
it's time to let go.
Probably helps to be
in the business of saving lives.
Yeah. Helps keep your mind off
your own crap.
And occasionally,
you learn something
from the people you treat.
Have a good night.
(SOFT JINGLING)
Okay.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Um, can you take that? How'd it go?
- Really good, actually.
- Yeah?
It meant a lot to Jess
that I brought it up.
Obviously, I took all the credit
for the idea.
- Of course you did.
- Her husband just got here,
so once they started getting
all lovey-dovey,
I thought I'd give them some space.
Probably wise.
Looks like you're
wrapping up here, so
any chance you might want
to grab a drink with someone,
I don't know, charismatic,
who fills every room she walks into?
I just got out of something
kind of serious.
(INAUDIBLE CONVERSATION)
(SOFT MUSIC)
My flight to New York leaves at 9 AM.
I'm not looking for anything serious.
Dr. Clark. Sorry to make you
come back to HR,
but somehow, we're missing three forms.
No problem.
Any chance you're the daughter
of Brian Clark?
- Yes.
- I see the resemblance.
He was a great doctor. Kind. Funny.
Never met a dad joke he didn't like.
- (CHUCKLING)
- He really got a raw deal here.
What do you mean?
Nothing. Sorry, long day.
You're all set.
Did something happen
before he left here?
Not that I know of.
You just said he got a raw deal.
I-I shouldn't have. I-I-I don't
Please! Tell me what you know.
Why don't you just ask your father?
I would. But he killed himself
three months after
he left this hospital.
If you don't tell me,
I will go to Dr. Hamda and I will report
that you violated confidentiality.
Hannah, please don't do this.
You opened the door.
Now, I need to know
what's on the other side.
All I know is your father
filed an HR complaint
against Dr. Larsen,
and a week later, he was gone.
