Doogie Kamealoha, M.D. (2021) s01e08 Episode Script

1
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Hey! Sorry you had to wait so long.
I was second scalpel on
a snoozer hip arthroplasty
when a Bovie submarined
the lateral circumflex.
It was a sponge party.
Sorry.
Surgical jargon.
Gotcha. No worries!
Well, I mean, while I waited,
I nailed a double fakie hardflip
into a frontside overcrook,
and then I combo'd a reverse
gingersnap into an old-school ho-ho.
And I was like, what?
- Skating jargon.
- (SOFT CHUCKLE)
And really, I don't mind waiting.
You know I'd wait all day for you.
Thanks.
It'd be cool to do normal stuff,
like, meet my skate crew Saturday?
(SIGHS)
But I get it. You're a doctor.
You got weird hours and
you're just doing your job.
Like Big Mo.
Dude won't let me in to use the
bathroom unless I snap my ankle.
It's fine! Walter's my boyfriend!
(SIGHS)
All respect, brah!
So, I do have to work on Saturday,
but I'm all yours for the next
fifty-two minutes?
You wanna go for a walk?
- Feed the feral cats?
- (SCOFFS)
Only if we get to invent
elaborate backstories for them.
- (WATCH BEEPS)
- LAHELA: Crap!
Code Blue, my patient's flatlining!
- That's jargon for
- I think I know what that one means.
- Go!
- Okay.
Your THR patient from this
morning. He's 83 years old, yeah?
Eighty-four. Possible post-op DVT or
pulmonary embolus. Or caught a PJI.
- Poor old guy's on his honeymoon.
- (NOELANI GROANS)
(NOELANI GASPS)
(LAHELA CLEARS THROAT)
Oops.
Bonnie, we've got a crowd!
Your pulse oximeter came off.
We all thought you flatlined.
Sorry. We're newlyweds.
We just can't keep our
mitts off of each other!
(GLENN AND BONNIE CHUCKLE)
(MACHINE BEEPING)
(SIGHS) Gotta say,
not a bad way to spend
the end of your life.
(THEME MUSIC)
(ALL LAUGH)
That was like watching Nana
and Pop-Pop get to second base.
Girl, we doc-blocked them!
I think it's so sweet
they found each other.
It's inspiring to know the
candle of love still burns
so close to the end of the wick.
Oh, barf.
I hope Walter and I are
like that when we're 80.
Poor Walter. He reminds
me of my first boyfriend.
Huh?
I mean, Doogie, you're
16. You're still a keiki.
Trust me, you're gonna meet
guys who are way better fits.
We fit great.
He's my first love.
Ignore that hard-up witch
who's clearly been burnt before
and believe in love, honey.
Like me and Trent.
You know, we're navigating
choppy waters right now,
- but we're destined to be together.
- NOELANI: Hm.
You mean your ex?
In Chicago? Who just
moved in with another man?
I said choppy waters!
Walter and I are great.
I just wish I could see him more.
He asked me to meet
his friends on Saturday,
but that's my regular GI rotation.
Why don't we swap? You take
Monday, I'll take Saturday.
- No prob.
- Really?
Thanks!
Trent and Todd are apple picking
then and are gonna light up Insta.
Can't watch Trent pick
another man's apples.
(LIGHT MUSIC)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
(KAI GROANS) How much
longer is Dad gonna be?
(SIGHS DEEPLY) Eternity?
- Hey, Ono Ken, aloha!
- KEN: Hello, brother!
- Guava! A hui hou!
- GUAVA: Hey there, Benny!
(LAUGHS)
How's it, Kamealoha family?
Benny struck gold at Mama
Keona's macadamia stand!
It was (IMITATES EXPLOSION) nuts!
What's this noise?
BENNY: Carob chip brownies!
Mama K gave 'em to me
for only seven bucks each!
(CLARA CHUCKLES) You
and the farmers' market.
You always promise to hit it and
quit it, then go in for hours.
It's like Narnia but
with overpriced fig jam.
Oh, come on. It's my chance
to talk story with everyone!
You know, Guava Nohea,
Ono Ken, Smart Ken
(SCOFFS) all the Kens!
(RETCHES)
Diarrhea mouth!
Garbage.
Oh, my cookie cakes would
dunk all over these fools!
Kai! Dad paid seven bucks
for these poop bricks.
With your oven mitts
and my business savvy,
we could get rich off of
eager suckers like Dad!
Totally! The island's
crawling with chumps!
I'm in.
I could use extra money.
But I don't wanna do
any math or money stuff.
Don't worry, pretty boy.
I'll handle the cash.
(CLARA GROANS)
The hospital board wants
employee recommendations
for the Chief of Staff search,
which is great for my
competition, Dr. Lee.
The heart surgeon that ranked
everyone's spouse by hotness?
(GRUNTS)
He drives me crazy, but
he can really work a room.
Like Bill Clinton
if Bill Clinton were half-Malay,
wore cycling shorts to work,
and could recite the entire script
of Cool Runnings from memory.
I love Cool Runnings, John Candy.
I love the hospital!
And I know I can make it
so much better as chief.
But I have to campaign for it?
That's business.
Part of the reason why I left trading.
I do all the crap no one wants to do,
and I'm focused on actually
running the hospital.
But I'm no good at schmoozing.
(GRUNTS) I'm a workhorse,
not a show horse.
Show horses aren't born, they're made.
You have to be a workhorse
at being a show horse!
I have an idea.
You grab some fruit in the market
and lay it out at work with a sign,
"Courtesy of Dr. Hannon.
Your next Chief of Aloha."
That's a great idea.
Then you should sing
to them. From the heart.
But let's start with the fruit first.
Yeah.
You sure you didn't overdo it?
Steph, I wanna make a
good first impression
on Walter's skate crew.
With a shnark-noodle-ree board?
Charcuterie board!
I used meats and cheeses from
six of the seven continents.
It's delicious and conversational.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Whoo!
(UPBEAT MUSIC CONTINUES)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Why does it smell like a locker
room even though we're outside?
Love it.
Smells like dudes.
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
- WALTER: 'Sup.
- Hey.
Lahela, Steph, these are my boys!
- This is Spyder.
- How's it?
- Goofy J.
- 'Sup.
- And Carl.
- Cool meat.
I'm so happy that you're here. Come on!
GOOFY J.: Hey, look
at those handle nerds!
CARL: Scoots get the boot!
Hey, no hobbies, lifestyles only!
- (LAUGHS)
- They're yelling at children.
Yeah.
Beat it, Fisher-Price!
SPYDER: No, I got ya!
- CARL: Yeah, that was good.
- Come on!
- GOOFY J.: There you go.
- SPYDER: Welcome to the club.
- GOOFY J.: Yeah
- STEPH: Hey.
CARL: You should
come here all the time.
Okay, you left delicious
fruit in the break room
Now's the time to cash in.
Yeah.
Go get those employee recs.
(CHUCKLES)
(SOFT CHUCKLE)
(BREATHES DEEPLY) Oop.
Ahoy, Gail! (CHUCKLES)
All right, that's, um
So, not sure if you saw, but I
put some treats in the break room.
Yum.
Okay.
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
- Hey, Joannie! How are ya?
- Good.
You have been a nurse here
for, what, seven years?
Oh, 12. And, actually, it's Jenny.
Oh, my god. I'm so sorry!
Bye.
I need a shave ice.
Make it a double rainbow.
Whoa. What's going on?
My coworkers will never recommend me.
No, they love you!
I just called Jenny, a
longtime nurse here, Joannie!
I mean, wear a name tag
on campus, but still
Oh, that reminds me, I gotta
get a gift for her baby shower.
She said no gifts but
come on, I'm not an animal.
You were invited to her
baby shower and I wasn't?
(CLARA SCOFFS)
I'm so bad at this.
(SIGHS)
And now it's gonna
cost me Chief of Staff.
(DR. LEE YELLS)
(BOTH GRUNT)
- MAN: Hey!
- Oh!
Hey, PS, your wife's still
number one on the list, bruh.
(DR. LEE CHUCKLES)
Oh, hail Gail!
I'm following your account on Insta.
Dear Tabby? Yes, love it! Love it.
Oh, Jenny! Hope people
don't think the baby's mine!
(LAUGHS)
I'm kidding. I'm kidding. Don't call HR.
(BOTH LAUGH)
I'm gonna rec you.
As in "rec"?
Short for recommendations.
Boom! (CHUCKLES)
“Feel the rhythm! Feel the rhyme!
Get on up, it's bobsled time!”
- DR. LEE: Yeah! Yes!
- (GROANS)
(DR. LEE YELLS)
Dr. Lee is a star.
No wonder Joannie didn't invite me.
Jenny.
You didn't get invited
to Jenny's baby shower.
(IN SOFT VOICE) Right. Jenny.
(SIGHS)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
STEPH: Hey.
(STEPH CHUCKLES)
STEPH: No, like, I can
totally, like, shred the gnar.
- SPYDER: Really?
- STEPH: Yeah.
So, like, why do they call you Spyder?
I don't know. But all the
Tarantola men get called it.
Italian! Like-a me-a!
Hey, Lahela. Thanks for
bringing the food plate.
It's cool.
Yeah, Doc. These
little pickles are dope!
I feel like a giant man guy!
(ALL LAUGH)
And I don't know what those tiny
breadsticks are, but they're tasty!
Toothpicks?
Yo, Doc, you ever get to amputate stuff?
Ideally not. But I kinda do it all.
I'm currently in my
gastroenterology rotation,
and it's surprisingly cool.
Gastromony?
Like, butt stuff? (CHUCKLES)
Yo, Doc, you specialize in farts?
I guess you kinda came
to the right place, then.
(BOYS LAUGH)
Okay, let's talk something different.
So, is this what you guys normally do?
Yeah. I mean, if we're
not skating, we're surfing.
Wait.
So you guys, like, never walk?
Walking's for dopes.
The Earth doesn't walk, it spins, man.
Tony Hawk skated so that
we don't have to walk.
Oh, sounds like the
Ruth Bader Ginsburg
of transgressional street sports.
I gotta look her up.
Chicks with three names
are always smokin' hot.
I have three names.
So
(LIGHT MUSIC)
(GROANS)
Dr. Hannon's bribery
guavas have spoiled.
Oh, there she is, lover girl! (CHUCKLES)
So? How was your big
Saturday with Walter?
Hm. His buddies were underwhelming.
I finally get why there's no
dialogue in energy drink commercials.
Hm, well, welcome to the
world of mediocre boyfriends.
I mean, if it's not deadbeat pals,
it's unpaid rent, or a wife,
or one time, surprise back hair.
(GASPS) Brillo-back
Sammy! I remember him.
- He was funny.
- (NOELANI GRUNTS)
Lahela, you are a gorgeous
16-year-old doctor.
Just gotta keep those eyes open, girl.
(GROANS) Walter and I are great. Great!
I gotta go check on our newlywed.
Oh, you know, I'd knock first.
I think they discovered the
handlebars in the bathroom shower.
Hey, yo! What are you doing?
What?
Sorry about the TV.
I couldn't find the remote.
Why don't you tell me who you are?
Right. Sorry, that
was rude. I'm Anthony.
I just started volunteering here.
I read to patients twice a week.
Oh.
- Okay. That's cool.
- ANTHONY: Full disclosure,
it doesn't look too bad
on my college apps, either.
The goal is Columbia for Comp Lit,
and then it's off to
Cambridge for the Ph.D.
Here, if you'd like to
indulge in humanities,
William Carlos Williams
is your on-call poet.
Thanks.
Off to pediatrics! (SIGHS)
Chop-chop, partner! I need 42
cookie cakes by the end of day.
(GROANS) Buddy.
The farmers' market's not for
another couple days. Relax.
Did you not get the
business plan for
Brian Patrick and Kai's Cookie Cakes?
I slid it under your door.
Okay, here's the deal with the deal.
We fly high and fast and force
Keebler into a competitive M&A.
Make those smug little
elves pay through the nose.
Build our own tree mansion.
Eh, sounds intense.
I'll fire up a couple cookie cakes,
but I just wanna make enough to
buy myself a pair of kitchen clogs.
But I thought we were
doing this together?
Not like this.
I make cookies for fun. I
don't wanna bake for the man.
Don't you get it?
We're the man!
Sorry. Can't do it, bruh.
(SIGHS)
Then prepare to face the
invisible hand of the market, bruh.
(GRUNTS)
Ah, think next time,
I'll leave it in the box.
At least Jenny won't have to
put it together. Carpal tunnel.
How do you know more about
my colleagues than I do?
'Cause you don't talk story with them.
You come across as all
business all the time.
You're like a mullet
with no party in the back.
I wish I had time for talking,
but with my life, I
have to always be doing.
You should always be being.
Come to the baby shower and show
your coworkers that side of you.
People respond to that energy.
Not only is it how you
should live your life,
but it'll help you get Chief of Staff.
You're right.
I'll go. (CHUCKLES)
Now, this is the sort
of event that has the
- No booze.
- Yup, that's great.
Awesome.
I refuse to look at pics of
Trent apple-picking with Todd,
but please describe them and be
just to the bitchy side of honest.
Oh, this one looks like
they're in a big fight!
Aw, no wait. They're Lady and
the Tramp-ing a Granny Smith.
(GIGGLES)
Dr. Kamealoha.
So there's this live poetry reading
at the State Library tomorrow,
if you're interested.
Yeah!
I mean, maybe.
Okay, think on it, then.
Oooh.
Doogie!
I think he's into you.
What? (BLOWS RASPBERRY)
Please.
Girl, come on, she's
in love with Walter.
Lahela, do you really
see yourself at 30,
listening to Boardshorts Wally yammer on
about how he wants to build
a skate ramp in Auntie's yard?
He's not just a skater surfer
dude. There's more to him than that.
Yes, Walter's like the little
black dress of boyfriends.
He's cute, he is versatile,
and you can take him anywhere!
I mean, he'd say yes to a poetry
reading if you asked, right?
A hundred percent.
Okay, as we buy fruit for the baby
shower, you practice talking story.
Yeah.
Play it nice and cool.
Fanny pack?
I'm good.
Okay. Now remember, the goal today is
- Always be being.
- Always be being. Got it.
- (BOTH LAUGHING)
- Let's farm this market.
Cookie cakes! Come and
get your cookie cakes!
- Cookie cakes!
- MAN: No, thank you.
Dang it.
Cookie cakes!
- KAI: Nice and hot.
- There's a nice vendor I can talk to!
Cookie cakes! Come and
get your cookie cakes!
Ones you grew with
your body don't count.
- Oh.
- Good luck, son!
Come and get 'em!
I promise they do not suck!
Cookie cakes!
BRIAN: Trouble moving inventory?
(QUIRKY MUSIC)
Dude, did you made cookie cakes?
You can barely toast pizza bagels.
I repackaged the brownies from Foodland.
700 percent markup!
Where'd you get the sign?
And why is my name on it? And my face?
Alliteration. And you're
easy on the peepers.
Is that your confirmation suit?
Dress for success!
Paper's my religion now.
Hey, there's still time to
climb aboard the profit train.
Forty-nine percent ownership work?
No.
This place is about
supporting farmers and
the sacred rule of
one sample per person.
I can't believe I actually
wanted to work with you.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
I'm a little nervous.
I'm so bad at small talk.
Relax and focus on
eye contact and smiles.
Eyes and teeth. Show horse!
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
(EXHALES SHARPLY)
(CLEARS THROAT)
- Hey there!
- Hey!
So, five pounds of mangos, please.
- All right.
- And, um, where are you from?
Oh, you know, originally
outside Denver
(QUIRKY MUSIC)
Okay, good start with Mango Ken, but
now we add a follow-up question, yeah?
Stay engaged.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Aloha! (CHUCKLES)
Oh, these avocado look
amazing! (CHUCKLES)
So, how are things going today?
You always want more people, right?
Oh, not at a hospital.
It usually means a
multi-car pileup, so
Have you ever been in an accident?
And the finishing touch touch.
Physical contact.
It lets people know you've heard them.
(EXHALES DEEPLY)
Hit me with seven papayas, my good man!
(LAUGHS)
So, how long you been at this?
Oh, gosh, three years now?
Oh, great! And what did you do before?
I was up in the prison
for stealing a Harley.
(GRUNTS)
Yeah.
Hey! Sorry, you had to wait again.
No worries. I made some
progress with Big Mo!
Turns out, we're both
distant relatives of The Rock.
Oh.
So, I was thinking, maybe we
try something new tomorrow.
Like, a poetry read?
(LAUGHS)
Sorry. I thought you were kidding.
Um, you know, I'd love to,
but Spyder and I are gonna wear
GoPros and skate the dead mall.
You should come! We're
gonna grind down the old
Seriously?
I mean, is that what you
wanna do with your life?
Uh, I don't know. I guess I
haven't really thought about it.
Yeah, that's the problem.
I didn't realize that
there was a problem.
Look, I'm sorry that I didn't plan
out my life at the age of seven,
or however old you were in 11th grade.
Code Blue. I gotta go.
(SOMBER MUSIC)
- (CHUCKLES)
- Okay, baby shower time!
I'll assemble pop-up tents,
you be your amazing self
and win employee recs.
Always be being.
Yeah. You were great
at the farmers' market.
I just hope nine cubic feet
of fruit salad is enough.
(BOTH LAUGH)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
Oh, my!
Hi! Benny, Dr. Hannon, welcome!
Hi, Jenny! Where is everyone?
Oh, god, was there a tsunami warning?
Oh, no, no!
Grace and I wanted to keep it small.
Just family, you know?
- Family?
- Family.
Benny's always been so nice
to me, he's practically ohana.
Practically ohana.
Oh, that's so sweet.
Could you just give us one sec?
Just wanna talk for a sec, yeah.
(LAUGHS)
This is like the world's
smallest baby shower!
I kinda hope she goes into labor
because, at least then,
there'd be more people here.
Come on, this'll be fun.
Benny, it's her family and us.
That's a little weird!
See, this is the problem with
your "always be being" mentality.
We end up in these awkward situations.
What's awkward about a baby shower
with just the couple's parents
and the guy they buy shave ice from?
(GROANS) I have so much work to do,
and I wasted all that time
at the farmers' market.
BENNY: You weren't wasting time!
You were putting out good vibes
so that it comes back to you!
Positive energy?
Okay, I'll try it.
Great, I'll go get the tents.
Okay.
(EXHALES SHARPLY)
WOMAN: her barky
sinews anchor to soil,
pulling down, down, down.
Until deafening silence.
(APPLAUSE)
Hey, thanks for bringing me.
I don't usually do stuff like this.
(BOTH CHUCKLE SOFTLY)
So, I'm in the middle of my
college application process,
and it's (CHUCKLES)
…intense.
You know, I was thinking that a letter
from the world's only teen doctor
would really help me get over the top?
Cool.
Here, I already wrote something up.
You're gonna do is
sign at the sticky tab.
WOMAN: the
beginning of a new day
Whoa. I'm not gonna sign
something I haven't read.
Or actually wrote.
(APPLAUSE)
What's the big deal?
I mean, in what way am
I not an integral part
of the hospital ecosystem?
- MAN: Ice, ice, some ice!
- (PHONE BUZZES)
LAHELA: It's the hospital.
There's an emergency with Glenn.
I'm really sorry, I gotta go.
Can you drive me?
Now? Yeah, I would, but
he's my favorite poet.
- So
- (SCOFFS)
Well, I have a patient who needs me.
MAN: Rock. Rock rock!
(GRUNTS)
Every rideshare car is
over 20 minutes away!
God, I hate tourists.
(DEEP SIGH)
Walking's for dopes
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
Ma'am! Ma'am!
I'm commandeering your skates
for a medical emergency.
A life is on the line!
(LIVELY MUSIC)
Oh! Sorry. Sorry.
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
(LIVELY MUSIC CONTINUES)
- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)
- (WOMAN YELPS)
MAN: Whoa.
(TIRES SCREECHES)
(ENGINE REVS)
(UPBEAT MUSIC)
(WHOOSHING)
The things I do for science.
(SOFT CHUCKLE)
Hmm. Yum.
Well, these mangos are outstanding.
Oh, thank you! I got them
at the farmers' market.
The guy, Ken?
He grew up in Denver. (CHUCKLES)
- Oh, I love Colorado!
- Oh.
I'm actually a big skier.
That's my go-to fun fact
for Two Truths and a Lie.
- (BOTH LAUGH)
- What, skiing? How'd you get into that?
My mom's from the mainland,
and we would always go visit my
grandparents in the Pocono Mountains.
- In Pennsylvania?
- I'm from Philly!
- (SOFT CHUCKLE)
- When someone went missing,
they would always find the
body in Big Pocono State Park!
- It's amazing!
- What?
Small world!
(BOTH LAUGH)
I be being.
I'm sorry. I know we don't get
to talk much at the hospital,
but did Benny say you're
going for Chief of Staff?
Yes, I am. Yeah.
Would it be okay if I recommended
you to the other nurses?
What? Of course!
I would be honored!
Oh, I know you'd be great!
Benny always says how amazing
you are when we talk story.
You know, you're always
so busy at the hospital.
It's really nice to see
this other side of you.
Aw. (SOFT CHUCKLE)
It's funny because this
is the only side I see.
And I love it.
(CLARA LAUGHS)
Glenn is out of surgery
and doing very well.
Textbook thrombectomy.
Cleared that clot right out.
He'll be up and kissing in no time.
Thank you, doctor.
Good work, Doogie.
I don't actually want to
see them necking again,
but it's comforting to know they can.
So, how'd it go with Anthony?
(SIGHS) Terrible.
I mean, he made a library no fun.
Maybe Walter and I don't
share any interests,
but Anthony's only interest is himself.
Excuse me.
Really, dear. Thank you.
- I was so afraid I'd lose him again.
- Again?
Glenn was my first love.
But we went our separate
ways, lived different lives.
We only just recently
reconnected online.
Let me guess, on the Facebook?
On Hot2Trot.
It's like Tinder but for seniors.
And way more aggressive.
But thank God we found each other again.
Because there's no one else in
the world I'd rather be with.
And when you find that, you hold on.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
I'm both grossed out and wanna cry.
I just (SOBS)
And she (GASPS)
I need some air. (SIGHS)
(CHARLES SOBS)
Anthony wouldn't even
drive me to the hospital.
But Walter would wait all day
(SCOFFS)
just to see me for 15 minutes.
I think I blew it.
LAHELA: I shouldn't
have been so hard on him.
No.
I blew it.
I got in your head.
What?
God, it must be so hard
to be 16 and a doctor.
And you never let on. (SOFT CHUCKLE)
And (SIGHS)
Yeah.
I wanted to be a big sister to you,
- and
- (CHUCKLES)
I just ended up dumping
all my love baggage on you.
I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
(CHUCKLES)
Isn't that kinda what big
sisters are supposed to do?
(BOTH LAUGH)
Plus, I mean, if Bonnie
found love 65 years later
(SCOFFS)
then there's hope for us, too.
(CHUCKLES)
(SIGHS DEEPLY)
Yeah, there's always hope
when it comes to love.
Just ask Walter.
(GENTLE MUSIC)
Lahela, I bailed on skating
the mall with Spyder.
I've been texting you all day.
I'm so sorry for lashing out at you.
I just, I didn't know what to say
when you asked what I
wanted do with my life.
No, I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have put that on you.
It's great that you love
having fun with your crew.
That's high school.
It's just hard for me sometimes
because my life's been so different.
Brought a plate of continental
cured meats to a skate park.
That plate was everything!
I mean, you got Goofy J. to
eat, like, ten toothpicks!
(CHUCKLES)
I do love how determined you are.
I mean, my dream's
being paid to surf.
I don't even know
if that's a real thing,
but I love that you care about
what I wanna do with my life.
Because I want to share it with you.
I love you, Lahela.
I love you, too.
(ROMANTIC MUSIC)
Okay, you believe in love.
Say it.
- Fine.
- (LAUGHS)
I knew it!
So you think I should get
back together with Trent?
I think we find you a new Trent.
(CLEARS THROAT)
Sorry.
(BOTH GIGGLE)
(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
You're not selling Brian Patrick
Presents Kai's Cookie Cakes?
Nah, the vendors weren't very welcoming.
Based on the body part they
spray-painted on my sign.
Here.
We shook hands, so I owe you
50 percent of all my profits.
Enjoy your clogs. Or clog.
This is only gonna cover one.
Sweet.
You know, you're all right, BP.
A little off, but you're all right.

Wait, Mom, are you going in?
We're going in. (EXHALES DEEPLY)

As a doctor, you learn all there
is to know about the human body.
How blood flows, how muscles contract,
how the ileocecal valve can fail
and allow colonic reflux
to overwhelm the sphincter.
Sorry, I'm on my GI rotation
and it is fascinating!
But what's harder to figure
out is how two people,
who seemingly have nothing
in common, can fall in love.

But when you're in it,
and you hear those words
for the first time
(SOFT CHUCKLE)
…it's the most amazing
feeling in the world.
