Doctor, this ship is heaven.
- And you're here
- [SCREAMS]
to keep everyone alive.
Breath is irregular. V-Fib. Now.
[THUMP]
I have a pulse.
Becoming some kind of team, huh?
I have a secret.
Is it that you're in love with Avery?
You broke the code.
Bro code?
You want to call a truce?
No more fighting over girls.
You matter.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]
Lotta new faces this year.
That joke was old
the first time you told it.
Oh, Lordy. A lot of new everything.
Wow.
In case of an emergency,
you can use your implants
as a flotation device.
You are both awful.
What's happening here is a disease.
It's called body dysmorphia.
Ah, the patients
for plastic surgery week arrive,
high on pain meds and sea air.
Whatcha guys doing?
The Captain and Tristan
have this cute little tradition
of mocking people
victimized by an industry
that exploits them
and makes them pay for it.
And here comes the exploiter-in-chief.
- Who's that?
- Lenore Laurent.
Her husband, Maury,
owns the cruise line.
They also own a chain of
fancy plastic surgery clinics.
She books the ship out every
year for her elite clients.
They get their work done
and come aboard to recover.
But her real motive
for this whole thing?
Miss Lenore has a huge
lady boner for the captain.
She does not have a

- No, that
- Bobby Massey.
Oh, she's spotted me,
so big smiles all around. Let's go.

My brawny buccaneer.
Lenore Laurent.
You get younger every year.
Mwah. Oh, you.
Mister, what did you do
to yourself, hmm?
Little Juvederm or Restylane?
- "T," huh?
- No, no, no, no.
Just a little sunlight, sleep,
and a little sunscreen.
- Ah.
- How's Maury?
Ugh, Maury. He's great,
as long as he's stuffing
his face with cold cuts
and white bread,
which he's always doing.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Dearheart, uh, remind me
of your name again.
Why am I thinking Harvey?
It's not Harvey.
It is. My name is Harvey.
It's Avery,
and she is our very talented
nurse practitioner.
Avery. That's right.
So pretty.
- Your name, that is.
- Hmm?
I hope we're in a better mood
this year. Hmm?
My patients, they pay beaucoup
bucks, and they expect happy,
shiny faces full of joy
and accommodation.
Miss Laurent,
can I show you to your suite?
I'm off.
I'm gonna mwah bother you later.
Okay, well, I'll look forward
to being bothered.
Ta-ta. Let's go.
- [CLEARS THROAT]
- Oh. Ah, yes.
I can't do this week again. I cannot.
- Avery? Wait, wait, wait.
- It's just so anti everything everything
- and against everything I believe in.
- Whoa, whoa.
Just imagine this time next
year you'd be taking your boards
on the way to being a doctor.
Thanks, really.
But there's a stack
of unsorted compression garments
down below calling out for me.
I can't stay here anymore.

I was afraid you'd jump ship.
How about this room, hmm?
I told the gal at the check-in

I'm Max,
the doctor here on The Odyssey.
You're not my usual demographic.
I have a doctor question for you.
I heard you have
some special equipment onboard,
a cryotherapy chamber?
Two of them, actually. You wanna see?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
So, here is our little dabble
into cryotherapy.
His and hers chambers.
Could it be his and his?
I dare you.
So you got your pectorals
done most recently, then?
Yep. I built them up with exercise
but added a small custom implant
to give the perfect shape.
They were the final piece.
The statue of David is complete.
[CHUCKLES] The statue of Ken.
Exactly.
You know,
I watch your TV show, obviously,
and I was always fascinated by
how you describe yourself as an artist
who has just fully
put himself into his work.
My mom's motto was you
can be whatever you want to be.
And I took that quite literally,
obviously.

This is my fourth boob job,
and nothing like this
has ever happened before.
Third time wasn't the charm, huh?
What's your treatment regimen?
Antibiotics. I have an ointment
for the incision scars.
- Nothing for the pain?
- They gave me some pills,
but I don't like
to put synthetics in my body.
To ingest synthetics.
Understandable, dear.
The only thing that really
works anyways is ice.
Have you been icing frequently?
Oh, all day.
I'd walk around with
two buckets full if I could.
Okay, well, um, you have frostbite.
Can you run a warm bath?
We need to break up the ice crystals,
make sure there's
no more damage to the tissue.
I'm going to prescribe you
a CBD balm for the pain.
- It's all natural.
- Will the skin heal?
The redness will go down,
but unfortunately,
that's second-
and third-degree frostbite.
So the damage to the tissue
is permanent,
and you are gonna experience
some blistering.
Down the line, you may be able
to get a skin graft,
but for right now, we're
just gonna do everything
- we can to keep you comfortable.
- Well, can't we do that now?
A-A skin graft?
That's not that difficult.
Oh, it's not? A skin graft
is not too difficult?

Pippa.
Your nose. It's falling off your face.
[BOTH SCREAMING]
Hey, you're going to be okay.
In my experience, response time
is what matters most
- in cases like this.
- Your experience?
Noses falling off
left and right, are they?
I have dealt with
other avulsions successfully.
How'd it even happen?
The filler used
in Pippa's recent rhinoplasty
has an acetone base.
Certain substances
in high concentrations
- can cause the filler
- High concentrations?
- Hear that, Pippa?
- Aw, piss off. It means
Can cause the filler to dissolve.
Then the acetone leaks out,
and it starts to eat away
at the surrounding tissue,
which causes the nasal avulsion,
the detachment.
Okay, now what I'm about
to put on is only temporary.
And don't worry,
Lenore has already been in
contact with a plastic surgeon
in Los Angeles who specializes
in these kinds of reattachments.

I thought you were fired.
I am. Still have to finish

This is fixable.
You just have to talk to Lenore.
I just can't do that, Tristan.
Hey. How's it going?
[SIGHING] Oh, sometimes
we can give them the world.
Other times, best we can give
them is their nose in a box.

You were smart to come in. Absolutely.

The tissue around the implant

Right now, our primary concern
is her safety and survival.

There are many different ways
we could attack this
debridement, Vacuum Assisted Closure.
But I got to be honest with you,
any one of them
could affect the implant.
So we don't use any one of them.
We use all of them.
Precision debridement,
one layer of skin at a time.
Vacuum Assisted Closure to
remove anything that's missed.
What about post-operative spread?
Targeted cryotherapy.
We have the machines.
If there's any bacteria that's missed,
it'll ensure it doesn't spread.
It also stimulates collagen growth,
which can keep the scarring
to a minimum,
help the skin look better, healthier.
The tissue removal would
have to be incredibly precise.

The tissue around the implant
has become infected.
We have to remove that
infection, or it could spread.
So this this tissue
removing business,
it's not going to affect her implants.
Right now, our primary concern
is her safety and survival.
I understand. I'm not the Wicked
Witch of the West, you know.
It's just, her aesthetic
is an integral part to who she is.
There are many different ways
we could attack this
debridement, Vacuum Assisted Closure.
But I got to be honest with you,
any one of them
could affect the implant.
So we don't use any one of them.
We use all of them.
Precision debridement,
one layer of skin at a time.
Vacuum Assisted Closure to
remove anything that's missed.
What about post-operative spread?
Targeted cryotherapy.
We have the machines.
If there's any bacteria that's missed,
it'll ensure it doesn't spread.
It also stimulates collagen growth,
which can keep the scarring
to a minimum,
help the skin look better, healthier.
The tissue removal would
have to be incredibly precise.
I can do it. I can.
I'll go with the second opinion.

Okay.

You know what really sucks?
Learning a lesson.
And you can't ever go back.
You can never un-see the thing

I don't know.
Maybe that it was never real.

Yeah, she comes back, right,

I do, but

people do change. They can.
But it's rarely when you

How about you, man?
Uh, Avery told me about

I'm sorry I made fun of it.
Yeah, it's all very abrupt.
I don't know where to put it yet.
Well, we're three cruises in.
We got a few days off.

When I was in the hospital,
there were weeks
and weeks and weeks
where the only human contact that I had
was through this little window, waving.
So
watching Ken on TV,
watching the whole gang on TV,
you were the closest thing
that I had to friends.
I used to talk to you guys, you know,
like we were all in the room
hanging out together.
I know that sounds
a little crazy, but
Not at all. It's what a doll is for,
to be a friend when there's no one else.
Ken was living proof.
Nobody's born a hero.
We make ourselves
into the hero that we need.
I hate to ask this, but
could you show us where he is?
In his will, we were listed
as his next of kin,
so we need to receive the body
and start funeral arrangements.
I'm really sorry I couldn't do more.
A lot of doctors
won't even see patients like us.
You saw him. That's enough.
