Fear of Flying
Hey.
You left your panties at my house this morning.
I was looking for these.
You came to work with no panties? - Oh, shh! Is she back? Is? Who? What? - Violet.
She's been gone two weeks.
I killed all her houseplants.
Is she back? No, not yet.
She's awfully into Violet.
No, she's not.

She can't admit that she misses Cooper, so - What are you doing? - I'm waiting for Sam.
- I'm gonna make him talk to me.
- Make him? Mm-hm.
For the past couple weeks, he's been avoiding the office altogether, booking surgery after surgery.
Well, today, we have a patient together, and he is going to talk to me.
- You don't wanna hear me say this, but - No, he has no right to be mad at me.
He has a right to be mad.
You told him you couldn't be with him.
- You started sleeping with me.
- You are not the ex-husband of my best friend.
Look, you know, it irritates me.
I mean, doesn't it irritate you that Violet went away? She's not with some guy.
She's with, uh, Cooper.
They're touching monkeys, whatever they call it.
Anyway, she's coming back today, so - Good morning, Sam.
- Morning, Addison, Pete.
How are you? - Good.
How are you? - Uh, I am great.
- Well, good.
That's That's good.

Take those panties off.
- But he just talked to me.
- Panties off now.
Welcome to Flight 120, Pacific Vista Airlines, nonstop service to San Francisco.
Please turn your attention to the flight attendant nearest you for our safety demonstration.
We can close the window shade, if you like.
I mean, if it bothers you.
Leave it open.
Violet says it's good not to close anything out.
- Please prepare for gate departure.
She lets her patients call her Violet, huh? She said anybody who survived what I survived gets to call her by her first name.
Okay.
To release your seatbelt, lift the upper portion of the buckle.
We suggest that you keep your seatbelt fastened If you could just, uh A little less squeezing.
Oh, I'm sorry.
L Heh.
Thank you for doing this.
If my sister wasn't getting married, I would've waited for Violet.
No, it's my pleasure.
The floor-level lighting will guide you towards the exit.
The doors can be opened by moving the handle in the direction of the arrow.
Good.
Good.
Just breathe.
You can do this.
Yeah, I can do this.
In the event of a change in pressure, an oxygen mask will automatically drop from the compartment above your seat.
Once we've started All right, just find your place of calm.
You know, think about San Francisco, about the wedding, your family.
Slow it down.
Easy.
I made a mistake.
I can't do this.
You can.
You can.
Just try and ground yourself.
Calm - Stop the plane.
I have to get off.
- You need to sit down.
No, we're gonna crash! We're gonna crash, and people are gonna burn.
She was on the Flight 97 crash last year.
Okay.

Let me off the plane! Let me off the plane! No! We're gonna crash! You gotta let her off this plane.
Alvin Ailey Dance Theater? - No one can get tickets to that.
- I can.
William.
You know, the dinners and the flowers and the gifts Are you just trying to get me into bed? Because I am a grown woman.
You can ask.
I'm very aware of your womanhood, and I will ask at some point.
Right now, however, I'm wooing you.
- You are, heh, heh.
- Pick you up tomorrow night? - About 7? Here? - Okay, 7.
Such a pretty picture.
The rich, dirty old boss and his hot employee.
Do you want something, or do you just enjoy tormenting me? There's a sweet-looking couple who can't keep their hands off each other - waiting for you in the lobby.
- Oh, okay.
Thanks.
- Is there something else? - You actually like that guy? I actually like that guy.
I don't ever wanna see a book again.
- It wasn't that bad.
For you.
This is the kind of guy who gets A's without studying.
It's disgusting.
Hey.
Elisha and Esau.
How's the happy couple? Did you guys finish your dissertations? Yeah, we argued them last week.
The committee loved his.
They liked mine.
I should be jealous, but I don't care.
We're done with school, and we're off to Vegas tomorrow.
- Oh.
Vegas wedding, huh? - We want Elvis to marry us.
- Elvis? - Esau loves Elvis.
Yes, yes, yes.
Elvis, Vegas.
It's the ultimate American wedding.
- Heh-heh-heh.
- Ha, ha.
Right.
Okay.
It looks like we can't get you that physical soon enough.
- Did you bring the form? - Yes.
- I got it right here.
Excellent.
My visa has expired.
I need a physical to apply for a green card.
- Okay.
You ready? Yeah.
All right.
Baby's full term.
Could deliver at any time.
Has there been any change with his heart? No, the Doppler shows no change in the anatomy.
There's transposition of the great vessels.
- You'll schedule the heart surgery? How soon? The first one within a week of delivery, and then we can figure out the rest of the schedule as the baby grows.
Let's just hope the baby has your lungs, yeah? - Yeah.
Right, let's get you into that physical, check out that cough.
You're back.
It's about time - Not who you were looking for? - What are you doing in here? I'm updating the notes on one of Violet's patients.
Plane-crash survivor getting over her fear of flying, until she had a meltdown and was completely re-traumatized - under my care.
- Like house-sitting for a friend - and killing their dog? - Thank you.
That makes me feel better.
She's not back yet.
Who does that? Drops everything on a moment's notice and disappears.
- We're really talking about Cooper.
- No.
I was under the impression you'd broken up.
We have.
We were doing just fine hating each other.
Till Maya's wedding.
Followed me into the bathroom.
- Long story.
- Well, maybe after the long story, Cooper's just trying to figure things out.
Maybe he's just an ass.
So this is the guy.
- I'm the guy.
Heh, heh.
You know, I'd given up on meeting someone.
That's why we harvested my eggs.
But then, bam! Like a lilac bulb bursting through the winter snow, out of nowhere.
Henry sells rare Peruvian lily seedlings online.
- That's how we met.
- Oh.
I Googled all around, but he was the only one that would ship them overnight.
Not many people understand the differences in lilies, not the way May does.
- It's fate.
We're like Henry and June.
- But one month off.
Don't make me laugh.
It hurts when I laugh.
Okay, what hurts? He flew all the way over here to meet me so we could see if we both lived up to the e-mails and the pictures and the phone calls.
And we did.
You did, Henry.
I thought I was being gentle, but - Last night was our first time.
- Uh-huh.
I've never had so much pain.
I feel like I'm on fire.
Okay.
All right, okay.
Well, we will We'll take a look.
And, uh, we'll get you back on your feet, so to speak.
- Hey.
- Hey.
So, um, we're good? Yeah, we are good.
- No, no, I mean about me and Pete.
- Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean.
Because I wanna make sure you know that it's different.
Me and Pete is different than me and you because you were married to Naomi, and she's my best friend.
Addison, I don't have to talk about this.
It's water under the bridge.
Pete.
Glad you're here.
Take a look at this? Esau's got an infiltrate on his lung and a pleural effusion.
I think I'm gonna need a consult.
You needed a consult and you called Pete? He did call me.
All right, people, I'm good, all right? I don't think this is.
- What's going on? This is Dr.
Wilder.
- He's a specialist in infectious diseases.
I'd like you both to put these on.
If you could just come over to this side of the room just for a moment.
- You're scaring me.
What's wrong? Esau has tuberculosis.
What? No, no, no.
Other than the cough, I feel fine.
I feel fine.
TB doesn't always manifest with anything more than a cough, but it's serious.
No one gets TB anymore.
Not here much.
But it's on the rise in other parts of the world.
What about Elisha and the baby? What if they get it? We can test her.
If she's positive, we can go ahead and treat her.
The masks should protect her.
In the meantime, I'd like Sam to check you into St.
Ambrose, run some tests, find out what strain you have, and get you started on antibiotics.
If lmmigration finds out I have TB, what about my green card? I need you to sign off on my physical, to say I'm okay.
Esau No.
His visa's expired.
If you don't send that form in, they'll send him away.
Dr.
Bennett, please.
ICU, paging Dr.
Lee.
Okay.
So the nurses are finishing up on him, and then you can go in.
I put him on antibiotics and took some cultures to verify the strain.
And what about the form, Dr.
Bennett? I have a legal obligation to turn that form in, and I can't lie on it.
He's gonna get deported.
We're supposed to be married.
- I'm gonna have his baby in a few weeks.
- Can you hold off on sending the form in? I don't feel comfortable withholding information.
If he doesn't have that form, he's illegal, and he can't work, and he could be deported at any time.
Okay, okay.
We'll just go live with his parents in Kenya.
Elisha, you can't leave the country.
- If he's going, I'm going with him.
- No, he's talking about the baby.
He needs surgeries and extensive care for the next few years.
You won't have access to the care that he needs in Kenya.
Oh.
I'll hold off on sending in the forms.
We'll get him treated, and we'll worry about lmmigration later.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Okay.
- Thank you, Sam.
- Yeah.
Hey, you.
I thought you were at your office today.
Hey.
No.
Change of plans.
Uh, Vanessa Hoyt, this is Addison Montgomery.
Vanessa Hoyt, the perinatologist.
And neonatologist.
I've heard a lot about you too.
Good things.
- From Sam? - Um, no.
I didn't realize the two of you knew each other.
I didn't realize you two knew each other either.
Well, Sam asked me to consult on a case last week, and we just hit it off.
Well, that's nice that he asked you to consult on a case involving a pregnant patient from his practice.
So I have a minute if you wanna grab coffee.
- Sure.
Sure.
Let's go.
- Okay.
Nice to meet you.
Okay.
Hey.
- Hey.
Thanks for fitting this into your day.
I thought May was having an allergic reaction, but I just can't pin it down.
No worries.
You seem more relaxed than I've seen you in a while.
- Well, it's William.
- Ah, love.
No, not love.
Well, maybe eventually love.
But, no, he's wooing me.
I gotta hand it to the guy, he's got class.
And it's good to see you looking so happy.
You and Addison.
- I didn't think anybody knew about that.
- Yeah, well, Addison told me.
- What about you and Violet? - Violet's on vacation.
That could be good for Violet, getting away from it all.
She spent the last nine months away from it all.
Yeah.
Oh.
What is it? The tests from your exam show that you had an allergic reaction, - and that's why I brought in Dr.
Wilder.
- So, what's she allergic to? - She's allergic to your sperm.
- My sperm? Yes.
It's a rare reaction to a protein in the fluid.
Which can lead to an anaphylactic reaction the next time she's exposed.
Sort of like a peanut allergy.
Once you have it, the next time's usually worse.
- But you can fix it, right? - Well, this type of allergy is complicated.
I'm looking into possible treatments, but right now, no, I can't.
But we can't be allergic to each other.
And what about kids? We both wanna have kids someday.
- And if I'm allergic to his sperm - That's where we can help.
We can wash the sperm and inseminate.
And if that doesn't solve the problem, then we can do in vitro with your eggs.
So a baby someday, but we can't be, um, intimate? Yes, you can be, just safely.
You need to make sure you use a condom until Dr.
Wilder can figure this out.
I just wanted everything to be perfect.
Thank you.
- Well, look who forgot the SPF.
- Ha.
This is for you.
Costa Rica, best coffee in the world.
I thought you were touching monkeys.
That was the plan, and then we went to the airport, and we said, "No plans.
Costa Rica.
" White-sand beaches, fabulous music, steady stream of alcohol.
It was very Zen.
- Did you just say "Zen" to me? - It was relaxing, Charlotte.
Did you go to Central America, or did you join a cult? - Coop.
You're back.
- Pete.
He's Zen.
Best coffee in the world.
Mm-hm.
I actually came to borrow a book from you: Semen allergies.
I'll see what I have.
- So, what about Violet? She Zen too? - Oh, Violet.
Violet? She didn't come back.
She decided to stay.
She decided to stay? L She won't see her kid.
She won't get help.
And suddenly, she's a Costa Rican woman.
Ohh.
Light just went on in the den.
Bet he's pouring her a glass of wine.
Big old glass of red wine.
My wine.
- Addison.
- Oh, come on.
If he's dating a neonatal specialist, Pete, it's obvious what he's doing.
- Oh! Light just went off in the kitchen.
- Addison, come away from the window.
Come away from the window now.
Come on.
- He's happy.
- She's Zen.
Come on.
We're horrible.
We shouldn't be jealous like this.
We have each other.
We should be happy for them.
Yeah, I know.
Yes? Okay.
- Yeah.
Thanks.
- What is it? I gotta admit, I was surprised you asked me over for dinner tonight.
- Why? - Well, it's Okay.
I was actually surprised you said yes when I asked you out.
You know, I've been around, and you never noticed me.
No, I noticed you.
It's just that Oh, you were seeing someone else? Well, I'm not seeing someone else anymore.
Okay.
- Hey, Sam.
- Addison, what? Esau's tests came back.
It's MDR.
- His TB is drug resistant? - We should tell him.
That was nice of you to come all the way out here to tell Sam.
- I live next door.
- Oh.
I should go.
- Okay.
- All right, I'll - You know what? I'll deal with it.
Just go.
- Thank you.
Okay.
Uh, I'll meet you after.
Your place? - Okay.
- I'm so sorry.
- From your trip? - Yeah.
Hey.
Look at this.
Banana fiber.
Can you believe that? Someone could take a banana and make that.
Costa Rica.
I was wondering if you had a number for Violet.
One of her patients, I need to get her on a plane.
- Violet's patient, not Violet.
- No, sorry.
She's trekking in the rain forest, next couple weeks.
Cooper, is she? I mean, is this good, or is she running away? - No, no, no.
It's good.
It's therapeutic.
- Well, I'm all for therapeutic.
And you covering her patients has been very helpful.
She doesn't have to worry about them.
- She knows they're - Great, great.
No pressure there.
Sorry.
It's just, as I said, there's one I'm struggling with.
Mm-hm.
Well, day after day, the sun You know? Zen.
Oh, I found Zen.
Once.
It was the best couple hours of my life.
How long does he have to be in quarantine? Up to six months.
We can't risk an outbreak.
- They're gonna be devastated.
- Always fun to break people's hearts.
He's gone.
They're gone.
So I'm just gonna drive up tomorrow.
I don't need to fly.
I can have a good life without ever leaving the ground.
You wanted this, Natasha.
What's the point? We've been over the crash a hundred times.
Then let's not talk about the crash.
Let's talk about yesterday.
Talk me through it.
We'll see if we can figure out what triggered you, okay? Okay.
Um We sat down, and then the announcement came on, talking about the emergency procedures, and I was still okay.
Then what happened? I mean, what started you feeling anxious? I don't know.
I just freaked out.
Think about what you were thinking before that happened.
You know, you talked about your sister and the wedding.
Natasha? What happened? It was you.
You touched my arm and told me to breathe.
Just like she did.
Like Violet? No, the woman who sat next to me in the crash.
The woman I killed.
Any luck in finding them? I've called everyone in Elisha's file.
No one's heard from them.
The grad school, nothing.
- And Esau has no family here, so - They could be anywhere, - infecting anyone.
- We should've talked to Elisha more after we told her she couldn't take her baby out of the country.
- You're saying I scared her? - No, that's not what I said, Sam.
Well, I'm calling lmmigration.
No, Sam, that is not our job.
We're not the police.
Leaving isolation at the hospital was irresponsible.
And they're not going to knowingly put anyone at risk.
- Let me try to find them, okay? - Now you're being irresponsible.
Oh, really? I'm being irresponsible? What is that supposed to mean? Oh, this is about Vanessa.
She works on babies, Sam.
You're dating someone you think will get to me.
All right, you're jealous.
And you know what? You don't get to be jealous, because you made your choice.
Sam, don't call, okay? Look, they're scared.
They're in trouble.
The last thing they need is lmmigration coming down on them.
I looked out, and I saw the wing hit the ground.
And there was There was smoke.
And then fire.
And screaming.
I unbuckled my seatbelt, and the woman next to me, she couldn't get her belt undone.
She was screaming, "Help me! Please help me!" But I just wanted to get out.
I was so scared.
And I looked at her, and she was scared, but I ran.
I could hear her screaming, and I just ran away.
You didn't kill her.
The crash did.
- If you had stayed, you would've died too.
- I could've done more.
It was awful.
I killed that woman.
I can't talk my way out of that.
- I can't breathe my way past it.
- Natasha.
No.
Tell Violet I'm done with therapy.
I quit.
I'm only saying, if we can block the formation of cicatricial tissue The neurons are spared permanent damage and people like me would be able to walk no matter how bad the injury they sustained? I read last month's New England Journal too.
I'll leave you to it.
- Fife.
- I don't like being patronized.
What, even by our patron? What do you have against him? - Hey.
What? - William White doesn't know you.
He just likes the idea of you.
You'd be like a trophy in his case.
That's what you do for him.
But since I read once, when you're fighting for a girl you love, you shouldn't put down the competition, because it makes you look insecure, I'll bring it back to me.
Um I know I'm abrasive.
I know I'm snide.
But you make me a better person.
That's what you do for me.
- You gonna eat it or make love to it? - Bananas are amazing.
I'll never look at one the same way again.
Here.
You can have this one.
I'll find another.
Ow! What's your problem? Cut the Zen crap.
You follow me into the bathroom, then take off for two weeks? I know.
It was a mistake, which is why I left.
- I'm not angry anymore.
- Well, I am.
The sex didn't have to mean we were a happy couple again.
- It had to mean something.
- It did.
It meant I was still angry.
I've been sitting on a beach with a therapist working this out.
That moment has passed.
We can move on with our lives.
I forgive you.
- You forgive me? - Yes.
Ow! Ow! You need to talk to somebody about your eating disorder.
Shut up.
Fife's in love with me.
- Really? - Mm-hm.
- You're sure? - Yeah, because he told me so.
He said I make him a better person.
- Damn it.
- Yeah.
Jeez.
How do you turn down the guy in the wheelchair? What? Oh, God, I don't even notice the wheelchair anymore.
I mean, but who? Who does he think he is? How does he get off loving me? I mean, he is mean.
He is mean, and he is sarcastic, and he's morally adrift.
He'd steal my DNA and clone me if he could get away with it.
He is everything that I hate.
No, he is not He's not allowed to He's not allowed to love me.
Oh.
What? You like him.
- No.
I am dating William.
- You like him a lot.
Oh, my God.
I like him a lot.
Yes.
She can't breathe.
She threw up, and she started sweating.
- Slow down.
Tell me what happened.
- We used a condom.
I don't know.
We thought we were being safe.
She almost stopped breathing.
Epi's onboard, but her pulse ox is dropping.
I'm gonna intubate.
- I can't believe - Don't talk.
I need to listen.
- Prep the tube.
Give me one minute.
- She may not have a minute.
May, I know you're scared, but it's making your breathing worse.
I need you to take slow, deep breaths.
Henry, come take her hand.
Slow, deep breaths.
Feel the air fill your lungs.
Good.
Good.
Just like that.
Good.
- Her airways are opening up.
What happened? How could this happen after we took every precaution? I don't know.
I don't know.
Hi.
Well, I don't know if the condom broke or leaked.
Could've been too big.
People have a tendency to buy them a little big.
- Anyway, there was seminal fluid present.
- It's not your fault, Henry.
- But it is.
You're allergic to me.
- We got unlucky.
It broke.
How often does that happen? We'll be fine.
I can't have sex knowing that, every time, something could go wrong, and I could kill you.
- Henry - I love you.
I never thought I'd find somebody who gets me.
I don't want to be alone, but the thought of hurting you Guys, guys.
Let me find something.
The last thing I want is for you to forgo sex.
I will find a way, okay? I haven't been stood up since, oh, that's right, ever.
I'd like to thank you for letting me experience that unique humiliation that I'd somehow managed to escape until now.
I was supposed to meet you back at your place.
You're just remembering this? Vanessa, I'm so sorry.
I had a patient, and he left the hospital.
I'm so sorry.
I like you, Sam.
I could really see myself with you.
And a few years ago, I'd have ignored this voice in my head that says you're not where I am.
I'd try and make you feel what I'm feeling.
I feel I like you.
Addison Montgomery.
My entire professional life I've been riding in the shadows of the reputation of the famous double-board-certified redhead.
I'm not gonna do it in my personal life too.
- Addison and me - I don't wanna know.
I'm a catch, Sam, an honest-to-God catch.
But you're gonna have to chase me to catch me.
Vanessa - Esau, are you all right? - It's Elisha.
She's in labor.
Let's notify the OB and get her upstairs on a monitor.
You're doing great, Elisha.
We were on our way to her mom's because I was scared about lmmigration, but then the contractions started.
- We should get you back to Isolation.
- I need to be with her.
It's not safe for either of them.
Come.
Come with me.
Esau.
- You gonna pull your hair out? - No.
No.
Yeah, well, maybe.
- Not sure bald's the right look for you.
- I'm just having a bad run.
You too? Cooper's back.
He's all Zen.
It bothers you.
I beat him with a banana.
You gonna shrink me, tell me why? He's past the anger.
You're afraid it means he's really over you.
You're pretty good at this stuff.
No.
No, I'm failing everybody.
I try to help people, and they run.
Violet ran.
Her patient ran.
Two means you're failing everybody? Don't shrinks tell people to avoid global statements like that? Yeah, well, it feels like everybody.
Do you know how hard I tried to help Violet? Maybe you didn't push too hard.
Didn't push hard enough.
I can't force a patient to continue therapy.
You can let her know quitting's for losers.
Nudge her in the right direction.
Can show her settling's the coward's way out.
You can sit here and pull your hair out until you go bald.
- Thank you.
- Whatever.
Pete? You don't have to find a cure.
He broke up with me.
I wanted to let you know.
I didn't wanna waste your time.
I'm so sorry, May.
Here.
- I can't stop crying.
- Oh, I know it's hard, losing something you felt was right, but sex is important.
And maybe it's better to end it now before it got serious.
I know I just met him, and that may not make sense to you, but, oh, he was the one.
I spent my whole life waiting for someone like Henry.
And now he's gone.
But he still has my heart, and maybe he always will.
You'll find someone else.
Just give it time.
Do you really believe that? I do.
I'm sorry.
Tell Naomi to forget about the eggs too.
I can't do it on my own.
After Henry, I'm done.
Elisha's labor is progressing quickly.
What about the baby? Everything looks good so far.
I'll have the neonatal team standing by.
I'll give you an update as soon as the baby's born.
Okay? - Is that Esau Ajawke? - Yes, it is.
I'm Agent Jones with lmmigration and Customs Enforcement.
I have an order here to detain Mr.
Ajawke.
Addison.
- I told you not to call.
- Well, I did what I thought was right.
How is tearing them apart right? She can't go to Kenya.
He can't stay here.
What do you want me to say? Sometimes love doesn't always work out.
No.
Sometimes it doesn't.
Oh, come on.
Now, I'm trying to move on here.
I'm trying to be happy.
Oh, well, good for you.
In the meantime, I have to deliver Elisha's baby.
A baby that Esau isn't even going to see.
How are they supposed to move on? On semen.
A little light reading? May almost died.
Henry's condom broke or leaked.
He left her.
Oh, that's awful.
They were perfect.
Makes you wonder if there's some kind of message in it.
Biology telling them they don't belong together.
Well, I mean, there are the people that are right for you on paper, and then there are the people that are just right.
Is it settling if you go with the person who's right for you on paper? Maybe there's nothing wrong with settling, with being wooed.
Sometimes the person who's just right doesn't want you.
- Or they do, and they're just wrong.
- Yeah.
- Are we gonna have this? - Have this discussion? No.
- No? Okay.
- No.
- Aw.
I really wanted May to get her guy.
- Me too.
I'm sorry.
This isn't something I do.
I value your privacy - and your decision to not do therapy.
- Dr.
Wallace No, I just have something to say, and then I'll leave, and you can do whatever feels right for you.
- I wanted to be a surgeon.
- Look, I don't Medical school, Stanford, 1986.
ER rotation during my internship.
My first night on call, there was a bus accident.
The place was flooded with people.
And I was assigned this guy whose leg was mangled, and he was in pain, and he was yelling and screaming at me, and I couldn't stop the bleeding.
I called for help, and everyone was busy.
And this guy, he started kicking and yelling at me, and I let go of the compression, and he bled out.
And he kept yelling at me until he was dead.
I faked illness for the rest of the week.
As soon as I could, I switched to psychiatry.
See, I ran.
And my father was a surgeon.
And that's all I ever wanted, was to make him proud.
I haven't been through a plane crash, but I know what it's like not to push through what you wanna do.
And you saved yourself, Natasha.
That's not wrong.
No, it's human.
It is.
And I don't wanna push you to be scared.
I wanna push you past being scared so you can have what you want, so you can have the life you wanted to have.
And I know I'm not Violet, but I can help you.
So just please let me help you.
The ambulance arrived.
We're gonna be taking him now.
I'm sorry, you can't.
The nurses just paged me.
His oxygen levels have dropped.
It's probably due to the infection or the fluid that's collecting in his lungs.
Is that right? Look, if you take him now, you'll have a body on your hands by the time you get there.
Thank you.
Dr.
Montgomery's delivering your baby.
If you wanna see him, put this mask on and start acting sicker.
I think you're lying.
You sure? Are you a doctor? You might wanna step back.
He's very contagious.
Wouldn't wanna put you at risk.
We'll wait till he's stable.
Henry.
- I asked Henry to come because - He can fix it, May.
- You can fix it? - I can try to fix it.
There are breakthroughs being made in desensitizing people of this type of allergy.
Desensitizing? How? I would use injections of Henry's seminal fluid.
Expose you to small traces and build up your immune response over time.
- How much time? - Could take six months.
Maybe a year.
There's no guarantee this will work.
Look, I told you that it would be okay, you could move on, but what you two have, I envy it.
So maybe it's enough to survive for some time with no sex.
He's beautiful.
He's so beautiful.
Thank you.
Okay, I can't stall anymore.
You gotta go now.
- I love you.
- And I love you.
Do I think about you when I'm with her? Yeah.
But I can't wait around for something I can't have.
I won't.
And you shouldn't expect me to.
Sourdough.
I've been to San Francisco today, on a plane, with the patient who was afraid to fly.
She did great.
So that's my way of saying thanks - for kicking my butt into gear and - Congratulations.
You did it.
No.
No, you did it.
So take the thanks, take the sourdough, and, well, take this.
I know you're not a huggy-type person, but I really needed to do that.
Didn't kill me.
Well, I should go.
Sheldon.
Do you like martinis? I ran track in high school.
Well, I went out for the team.
I didn't make it, because I had asthma, but I can run pretty fast.
I'm sorry, what is your point? My point is that I'm ready to chase you.
But you better be ready to get caught.
- You're very good with the lines.
- Yes.
Yes, I am.
Charlotte.
Charlotte, if you're here, I tried calling.
I gotta send Violet her mail.
Cooper? What the hell are you doing here? I'll be gone in a minute.
I just got Charlotte made martinis.
I think he's lost his Zen.
- So you're off to the ballet? - Yes, I am.
- Is that what you're wearing? - Why? Well, I was just gonna say you look stunning.
- Shall we? - Yeah.
He's moved on.
So has she.
I don't want to alarm you, but I'm going to cry now.
I'm gonna hold you while you cry.
You left your panties at my house this morning.
I was looking for these.
You came to work with no panties? - Oh, shh! Is she back? Is? Who? What? - Violet.
She's been gone two weeks.
I killed all her houseplants.
Is she back? No, not yet.
She's awfully into Violet.
No, she's not.
Just that Cooper's on vacation with Violet.
She can't admit that she misses Cooper, so - What are you doing? - I'm waiting for Sam.
- I'm gonna make him talk to me.
- Make him? Mm-hm.
For the past couple weeks, he's been avoiding the office altogether, booking surgery after surgery.
Well, today, we have a patient together, and he is going to talk to me.
- You don't wanna hear me say this, but - No, he has no right to be mad at me.
He has a right to be mad.
You told him you couldn't be with him.
- You started sleeping with me.
- You are not the ex-husband of my best friend.
Look, you know, it irritates me.
I mean, doesn't it irritate you that Violet went away? She's not with some guy.
She's with, uh, Cooper.
They're touching monkeys, whatever they call it.
Anyway, she's coming back today, so - Good morning, Sam.
- Morning, Addison, Pete.
How are you? - Good.
How are you? - Uh, I am great.
- Well, good.
That's That's good.
- Yeah.
Okay.
Good to see you, Pete.
- What just happened? - He talked to you.
Um, I have 15 minutes before my first patient.
Take those panties off.
- But he just talked to me.
- Panties off now.
Welcome to Flight 120, Pacific Vista Airlines, nonstop service to San Francisco.
Please turn your attention to the flight attendant nearest you for our safety demonstration.
We can close the window shade, if you like.
I mean, if it bothers you.
Leave it open.
Violet says it's good not to close anything out.
- Please prepare for gate departure.
She lets her patients call her Violet, huh? She said anybody who survived what I survived gets to call her by her first name.
Okay.
To release your seatbelt, lift the upper portion of the buckle.
We suggest that you keep your seatbelt fastened If you could just, uh A little less squeezing.
Oh, I'm sorry.
L Heh.
Thank you for doing this.
If my sister wasn't getting married, I would've waited for Violet.
No, it's my pleasure.
The floor-level lighting will guide you towards the exit.
The doors can be opened by moving the handle in the direction of the arrow.
Good.
Good.
Just breathe.
You can do this.
Yeah, I can do this.
In the event of a change in pressure, an oxygen mask will automatically drop from the compartment above your seat.
Once we've started All right, just find your place of calm.
You know, think about San Francisco, about the wedding, your family.
Slow it down.
Easy.
I made a mistake.
I can't do this.
You can.
You can.
Just try and ground yourself.
Calm - Stop the plane.
I have to get off.
- You need to sit down.
No, we're gonna crash! We're gonna crash, and people are gonna burn.
She was on the Flight 97 crash last year.
Okay.
Natasha.
- Natasha.
- No.
Let me off the plane! Let me off the plane! No! We're gonna crash! You gotta let her off this plane.
Alvin Ailey Dance Theater? - No one can get tickets to that.
- I can.
William.
You know, the dinners and the flowers and the gifts Are you just trying to get me into bed? Because I am a grown woman.
You can ask.
I'm very aware of your womanhood, and I will ask at some point.
Right now, however, I'm wooing you.
- You are, heh, heh.
- Pick you up tomorrow night? - About 7? Here? - Okay, 7.
Such a pretty picture.
The rich, dirty old boss and his hot employee.
Do you want something, or do you just enjoy tormenting me? There's a sweet-looking couple who can't keep their hands off each other - waiting for you in the lobby.
- Oh, okay.
Thanks.
- Is there something else? - You actually like that guy? I actually like that guy.
I don't ever wanna see a book again.
- It wasn't that bad.
For you.
This is the kind of guy who gets A's without studying.
It's disgusting.
Hey.
Elisha and Esau.
How's the happy couple? Did you guys finish your dissertations? Yeah, we argued them last week.
The committee loved his.
They liked mine.
I should be jealous, but I don't care.
We're done with school, and we're off to Vegas tomorrow.
- Oh.
Vegas wedding, huh? - We want Elvis to marry us.
- Elvis? - Esau loves Elvis.
Yes, yes, yes.
Elvis, Vegas.
It's the ultimate American wedding.
- Heh-heh-heh.
- Ha, ha.
Right.
Okay.
It looks like we can't get you that physical soon enough.
- Did you bring the form? - Yes.
- I got it right here.
Excellent.
My visa has expired.
I need a physical to apply for a green card.
- Okay.
You ready? Yeah.
All right.
Baby's full term.
Could deliver at any time.
Has there been any change with his heart? No, the Doppler shows no change in the anatomy.
There's transposition of the great vessels.
- You'll schedule the heart surgery? How soon? The first one within a week of delivery, and then we can figure out the rest of the schedule as the baby grows.
Let's just hope the baby has your lungs, yeah? - Yeah.
Right, let's get you into that physical, check out that cough.
You're back.
It's about time - Not who you were looking for? - What are you doing in here? I'm updating the notes on one of Violet's patients.
Plane-crash survivor getting over her fear of flying, until she had a meltdown and was completely re-traumatized - under my care.
- Like house-sitting for a friend - and killing their dog? - Thank you.
That makes me feel better.
She's not back yet.
Who does that? Drops everything on a moment's notice and disappears.
- We're really talking about Cooper.
- No.
I was under the impression you'd broken up.
We have.
We were doing just fine hating each other.
Till Maya's wedding.
Followed me into the bathroom.
- Long story.
- Well, maybe after the long story, Cooper's just trying to figure things out.
Maybe he's just an ass.
So this is the guy.
- I'm the guy.
Heh, heh.
You know, I'd given up on meeting someone.
That's why we harvested my eggs.
But then, bam! Like a lilac bulb bursting through the winter snow, out of nowhere.
Henry sells rare Peruvian lily seedlings online.
- That's how we met.
- Oh.
I Googled all around, but he was the only one that would ship them overnight.
Not many people understand the differences in lilies, not the way May does.
- It's fate.
We're like Henry and June.
- But one month off.
Don't make me laugh.
It hurts when I laugh.
Okay, what hurts? He flew all the way over here to meet me so we could see if we both lived up to the e-mails and the pictures and the phone calls.
And we did.
You did, Henry.
I thought I was being gentle, but - Last night was our first time.
- Uh-huh.
I've never had so much pain.
I feel like I'm on fire.
Okay.
All right, okay.
Well, we will We'll take a look.
And, uh, we'll get you back on your feet, so to speak.
- Hey.
- Hey.
So, um, we're good? Yeah, we are good.
- No, no, I mean about me and Pete.
- Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean.
Because I wanna make sure you know that it's different.
Me and Pete is different than me and you because you were married to Naomi, and she's my best friend.
Addison, I don't have to talk about this.
It's water under the bridge.
Pete.
Glad you're here.
Take a look at this? Esau's got an infiltrate on his lung and a pleural effusion.
I think I'm gonna need a consult.
You needed a consult and you called Pete? He did call me.
All right, people, I'm good, all right? I don't think this is.
- What's going on? This is Dr.
Wilder.
- He's a specialist in infectious diseases.
I'd like you both to put these on.
If you could just come over to this side of the room just for a moment.
- You're scaring me.
What's wrong? Esau has tuberculosis.
What? No, no, no.
Other than the cough, I feel fine.
I feel fine.
TB doesn't always manifest with anything more than a cough, but it's serious.
No one gets TB anymore.
Not here much.
But it's on the rise in other parts of the world.
What about Elisha and the baby? What if they get it? We can test her.
If she's positive, we can go ahead and treat her.
The masks should protect her.
In the meantime, I'd like Sam to check you into St.
Ambrose, run some tests, find out what strain you have, and get you started on antibiotics.
If lmmigration finds out I have TB, what about my green card? I need you to sign off on my physical, to say I'm okay.
Esau No.
His visa's expired.
If you don't send that form in, they'll send him away.
Dr.
Bennett, please.
ICU, paging Dr.
Lee.
Okay.
So the nurses are finishing up on him, and then you can go in.
I put him on antibiotics and took some cultures to verify the strain.
And what about the form, Dr.
Bennett? I have a legal obligation to turn that form in, and I can't lie on it.
He's gonna get deported.
We're supposed to be married.
- I'm gonna have his baby in a few weeks.
- Can you hold off on sending the form in? I don't feel comfortable withholding information.
If he doesn't have that form, he's illegal, and he can't work, and he could be deported at any time.
Okay, okay.
We'll just go live with his parents in Kenya.
Elisha, you can't leave the country.
- If he's going, I'm going with him.
- No, he's talking about the baby.
He needs surgeries and extensive care for the next few years.
You won't have access to the care that he needs in Kenya.
Oh.
I'll hold off on sending in the forms.
We'll get him treated, and we'll worry about lmmigration later.
- Thank you.
Thank you.
- Okay.
- Okay.
Okay.
- Thank you, Sam.
- Yeah.
Hey, you.
I thought you were at your office today.
Hey.
No.
Change of plans.
Uh, Vanessa Hoyt, this is Addison Montgomery.
Vanessa Hoyt, the perinatologist.
And neonatologist.
I've heard a lot about you too.
Good things.
- From Sam? - Um, no.
I didn't realize the two of you knew each other.
I didn't realize you two knew each other either.
Well, Sam asked me to consult on a case last week, and we just hit it off.
Well, that's nice that he asked you to consult on a case involving a pregnant patient from his practice.
So I have a minute if you wanna grab coffee.
- Sure.
Sure.
Let's go.
- Okay.
Nice to meet you.
Okay.
Hey.
- Hey.
Thanks for fitting this into your day.
I thought May was having an allergic reaction, but I just can't pin it down.
No worries.
You seem more relaxed than I've seen you in a while.
- Well, it's William.
- Ah, love.
No, not love.
Well, maybe eventually love.
But, no, he's wooing me.
I gotta hand it to the guy, he's got class.
And it's good to see you looking so happy.
You and Addison.
- I didn't think anybody knew about that.
- Yeah, well, Addison told me.
- What about you and Violet? - Violet's on vacation.
That could be good for Violet, getting away from it all.
She spent the last nine months away from it all.
Yeah.
Oh.
What is it? The tests from your exam show that you had an allergic reaction, - and that's why I brought in Dr.
Wilder.
- So, what's she allergic to? - She's allergic to your sperm.
- My sperm? Yes.
It's a rare reaction to a protein in the fluid.
Which can lead to an anaphylactic reaction the next time she's exposed.
Sort of like a peanut allergy.
Once you have it, the next time's usually worse.
- But you can fix it, right? - Well, this type of allergy is complicated.
I'm looking into possible treatments, but right now, no, I can't.
But we can't be allergic to each other.
And what about kids? We both wanna have kids someday.
- And if I'm allergic to his sperm - That's where we can help.
We can wash the sperm and inseminate.
And if that doesn't solve the problem, then we can do in vitro with your eggs.
So a baby someday, but we can't be, um, intimate? Yes, you can be, just safely.
You need to make sure you use a condom until Dr.
Wilder can figure this out.
I just wanted everything to be perfect.
Thank you.
- Well, look who forgot the SPF.
- Ha.
This is for you.
Costa Rica, best coffee in the world.
I thought you were touching monkeys.
That was the plan, and then we went to the airport, and we said, "No plans.
Costa Rica.
" White-sand beaches, fabulous music, steady stream of alcohol.
It was very Zen.
- Did you just say "Zen" to me? - It was relaxing, Charlotte.
Did you go to Central America, or did you join a cult? - Coop.
You're back.
- Pete.
He's Zen.
Best coffee in the world.
Mm-hm.
I actually came to borrow a book from you: Semen allergies.
I'll see what I have.
- So, what about Violet? She Zen too? - Oh, Violet.
Violet? She didn't come back.
She decided to stay.
She decided to stay? L She won't see her kid.
She won't get help.
And suddenly, she's a Costa Rican woman.
Ohh.
Light just went on in the den.
Bet he's pouring her a glass of wine.
Big old glass of red wine.
My wine.
- Addison.
- Oh, come on.
If he's dating a neonatal specialist, Pete, it's obvious what he's doing.
- Oh! Light just went off in the kitchen.
- Addison, come away from the window.
Come away from the window now.
Come on.
- He's happy.
- She's Zen.
Come on.
We're horrible.
We shouldn't be jealous like this.
We have each other.
We should be happy for them.
Yeah, I know.
Yes? Okay.
- Yeah.
Thanks.
- What is it? I gotta admit, I was surprised you asked me over for dinner tonight.
- Why? - Well, it's Okay.
I was actually surprised you said yes when I asked you out.
You know, I've been around, and you never noticed me.
No, I noticed you.
It's just that Oh, you were seeing someone else? Well, I'm not seeing someone else anymore.
Okay.
- Hey, Sam.
- Addison, what? Esau's tests came back.
It's MDR.
- His TB is drug resistant? - We should tell him.
That was nice of you to come all the way out here to tell Sam.
- I live next door.
- Oh.
I should go.
- Okay.
- All right, I'll - You know what? I'll deal with it.
Just go.
- Thank you.
Okay.
Uh, I'll meet you after.
Your place? - Okay.
- I'm so sorry.
- From your trip? - Yeah.
Hey.
Look at this.
Banana fiber.
Can you believe that? Someone could take a banana and make that.
Costa Rica.
I was wondering if you had a number for Violet.
One of her patients, I need to get her on a plane.
- Violet's patient, not Violet.
- No, sorry.
She's trekking in the rain forest, next couple weeks.
Cooper, is she? I mean, is this good, or is she running away? - No, no, no.
It's good.
It's therapeutic.
- Well, I'm all for therapeutic.
And you covering her patients has been very helpful.
She doesn't have to worry about them.
- She knows they're - Great, great.
No pressure there.
Sorry.
It's just, as I said, there's one I'm struggling with.
Mm-hm.
Well, day after day, the sun You know? Zen.
Oh, I found Zen.
Once.
It was the best couple hours of my life.
How long does he have to be in quarantine? Up to six months.
We can't risk an outbreak.
- They're gonna be devastated.
- Always fun to break people's hearts.
He's gone.
They're gone.
So I'm just gonna drive up tomorrow.
I don't need to fly.
I can have a good life without ever leaving the ground.
You wanted this, Natasha.
What's the point? We've been over the crash a hundred times.
Then let's not talk about the crash.
Let's talk about yesterday.
Talk me through it.
We'll see if we can figure out what triggered you, okay? Okay.
Um We sat down, and then the announcement came on, talking about the emergency procedures, and I was still okay.
Then what happened? I mean, what started you feeling anxious? I don't know.
I just freaked out.
Think about what you were thinking before that happened.
You know, you talked about your sister and the wedding.
Natasha? What happened? It was you.
You touched my arm and told me to breathe.
Just like she did.
Like Violet? No, the woman who sat next to me in the crash.
The woman I killed.
Any luck in finding them? I've called everyone in Elisha's file.
No one's heard from them.
The grad school, nothing.
- And Esau has no family here, so - They could be anywhere, - infecting anyone.
- We should've talked to Elisha more after we told her she couldn't take her baby out of the country.
- You're saying I scared her? - No, that's not what I said, Sam.
Well, I'm calling lmmigration.
No, Sam, that is not our job.
We're not the police.
Leaving isolation at the hospital was irresponsible.
And they're not going to knowingly put anyone at risk.
- Let me try to find them, okay? - Now you're being irresponsible.
Oh, really? I'm being irresponsible? What is that supposed to mean? Oh, this is about Vanessa.
She works on babies, Sam.
You're dating someone you think will get to me.
All right, you're jealous.
And you know what? You don't get to be jealous, because you made your choice.
Sam, don't call, okay? Look, they're scared.
They're in trouble.
The last thing they need is lmmigration coming down on them.
I looked out, and I saw the wing hit the ground.
And there was There was smoke.
And then fire.
And screaming.
I unbuckled my seatbelt, and the woman next to me, she couldn't get her belt undone.
She was screaming, "Help me! Please help me!" But I just wanted to get out.
I was so scared.
And I looked at her, and she was scared, but I ran.
I could hear her screaming, and I just ran away.
You didn't kill her.
The crash did.
- If you had stayed, you would've died too.
- I could've done more.
It was awful.
I killed that woman.
I can't talk my way out of that.
- I can't breathe my way past it.
- Natasha.
No.
Tell Violet I'm done with therapy.
I quit.
I'm only saying, if we can block the formation of cicatricial tissue The neurons are spared permanent damage and people like me would be able to walk no matter how bad the injury they sustained? I read last month's New England Journal too.
I'll leave you to it.
- Fife.
- I don't like being patronized.
What, even by our patron? What do you have against him? - Hey.
What? - William White doesn't know you.
He just likes the idea of you.
You'd be like a trophy in his case.
That's what you do for him.
But since I read once, when you're fighting for a girl you love, you shouldn't put down the competition, because it makes you look insecure, I'll bring it back to me.
Um I know I'm abrasive.
I know I'm snide.
But you make me a better person.
That's what you do for me.
- You gonna eat it or make love to it? - Bananas are amazing.
I'll never look at one the same way again.
Here.
You can have this one.
I'll find another.
Ow! What's your problem? Cut the Zen crap.
You follow me into the bathroom, then take off for two weeks? I know.
It was a mistake, which is why I left.
- I'm not angry anymore.
- Well, I am.
The sex didn't have to mean we were a happy couple again.
- It had to mean something.
- It did.
It meant I was still angry.
I've been sitting on a beach with a therapist working this out.
That moment has passed.
We can move on with our lives.
I forgive you.
- You forgive me? - Yes.
Ow! Ow! You need to talk to somebody about your eating disorder.
Shut up.
Fife's in love with me.
- Really? - Mm-hm.
- You're sure? - Yeah, because he told me so.
He said I make him a better person.
- Damn it.
- Yeah.
Jeez.
How do you turn down the guy in the wheelchair? What? Oh, God, I don't even notice the wheelchair anymore.
I mean, but who? Who does he think he is? How does he get off loving me? I mean, he is mean.
He is mean, and he is sarcastic, and he's morally adrift.
He'd steal my DNA and clone me if he could get away with it.
He is everything that I hate.
No, he is not He's not allowed to He's not allowed to love me.
Oh.
What? You like him.
- No.
I am dating William.
- You like him a lot.
Oh, my God.
I like him a lot.
Yes.
She can't breathe.
She threw up, and she started sweating.
- Slow down.
Tell me what happened.
- We used a condom.
I don't know.
We thought we were being safe.
She almost stopped breathing.
Epi's onboard, but her pulse ox is dropping.
I'm gonna intubate.
- I can't believe - Don't talk.
I need to listen.
- Prep the tube.
Give me one minute.
- She may not have a minute.
May, I know you're scared, but it's making your breathing worse.
I need you to take slow, deep breaths.
Henry, come take her hand.
Slow, deep breaths.
Feel the air fill your lungs.
Good.
Good.
Just like that.
Good.
- Her airways are opening up.
What happened? How could this happen after we took every precaution? I don't know.
I don't know.
Hi.
Well, I don't know if the condom broke or leaked.
Could've been too big.
People have a tendency to buy them a little big.
- Anyway, there was seminal fluid present.
- It's not your fault, Henry.
- But it is.
You're allergic to me.
- We got unlucky.
It broke.
How often does that happen? We'll be fine.
I can't have sex knowing that, every time, something could go wrong, and I could kill you.
- Henry - I love you.
I never thought I'd find somebody who gets me.
I don't want to be alone, but the thought of hurting you Guys, guys.
Let me find something.
The last thing I want is for you to forgo sex.
I will find a way, okay? I haven't been stood up since, oh, that's right, ever.
I'd like to thank you for letting me experience that unique humiliation that I'd somehow managed to escape until now.
I was supposed to meet you back at your place.
You're just remembering this? Vanessa, I'm so sorry.
I had a patient, and he left the hospital.
I'm so sorry.
I like you, Sam.
I could really see myself with you.
And a few years ago, I'd have ignored this voice in my head that says you're not where I am.
I'd try and make you feel what I'm feeling.
I feel I like you.
Addison Montgomery.
My entire professional life I've been riding in the shadows of the reputation of the famous double-board-certified redhead.
I'm not gonna do it in my personal life too.
- Addison and me - I don't wanna know.
I'm a catch, Sam, an honest-to-God catch.
But you're gonna have to chase me to catch me.
Vanessa - Esau, are you all right? - It's Elisha.
She's in labor.
Let's notify the OB and get her upstairs on a monitor.
You're doing great, Elisha.
We were on our way to her mom's because I was scared about lmmigration, but then the contractions started.
- We should get you back to Isolation.
- I need to be with her.
It's not safe for either of them.
Come.
Come with me.
Esau.
- You gonna pull your hair out? - No.
No.
Yeah, well, maybe.
- Not sure bald's the right look for you.
- I'm just having a bad run.
You too? Cooper's back.
He's all Zen.
It bothers you.
I beat him with a banana.
You gonna shrink me, tell me why? He's past the anger.
You're afraid it means he's really over you.
You're pretty good at this stuff.
No.
No, I'm failing everybody.
I try to help people, and they run.
Violet ran.
Her patient ran.
Two means you're failing everybody? Don't shrinks tell people to avoid global statements like that? Yeah, well, it feels like everybody.
Do you know how hard I tried to help Violet? Maybe you didn't push too hard.
Didn't push hard enough.
I can't force a patient to continue therapy.
You can let her know quitting's for losers.
Nudge her in the right direction.
Can show her settling's the coward's way out.
You can sit here and pull your hair out until you go bald.
- Thank you.
- Whatever.
Pete? You don't have to find a cure.
He broke up with me.
I wanted to let you know.
I didn't wanna waste your time.
I'm so sorry, May.
Here.
- I can't stop crying.
- Oh, I know it's hard, losing something you felt was right, but sex is important.
And maybe it's better to end it now before it got serious.
I know I just met him, and that may not make sense to you, but, oh, he was the one.
I spent my whole life waiting for someone like Henry.
And now he's gone.
But he still has my heart, and maybe he always will.
You'll find someone else.
Just give it time.
Do you really believe that? I do.
I'm sorry.
Tell Naomi to forget about the eggs too.
I can't do it on my own.
After Henry, I'm done.
Elisha's labor is progressing quickly.
What about the baby? Everything looks good so far.
I'll have the neonatal team standing by.
I'll give you an update as soon as the baby's born.
Okay? - Is that Esau Ajawke? - Yes, it is.
I'm Agent Jones with lmmigration and Customs Enforcement.
I have an order here to detain Mr.
Ajawke.
Addison.
- I told you not to call.
- Well, I did what I thought was right.
How is tearing them apart right? She can't go to Kenya.
He can't stay here.
What do you want me to say? Sometimes love doesn't always work out.
No.
Sometimes it doesn't.
Oh, come on.
Now, I'm trying to move on here.
I'm trying to be happy.
Oh, well, good for you.
In the meantime, I have to deliver Elisha's baby.
A baby that Esau isn't even going to see.
How are they supposed to move on? On semen.
A little light reading? May almost died.
Henry's condom broke or leaked.
He left her.
Oh, that's awful.
They were perfect.
Makes you wonder if there's some kind of message in it.
Biology telling them they don't belong together.
Well, I mean, there are the people that are right for you on paper, and then there are the people that are just right.
Is it settling if you go with the person who's right for you on paper? Maybe there's nothing wrong with settling, with being wooed.
Sometimes the person who's just right doesn't want you.
- Or they do, and they're just wrong.
- Yeah.
- Are we gonna have this? - Have this discussion? No.
- No? Okay.
- No.
- Aw.
I really wanted May to get her guy.
- Me too.
I'm sorry.
This isn't something I do.
I value your privacy - and your decision to not do therapy.
- Dr.
Wallace No, I just have something to say, and then I'll leave, and you can do whatever feels right for you.
- I wanted to be a surgeon.
- Look, I don't Medical school, Stanford, 1986.
ER rotation during my internship.
My first night on call, there was a bus accident.
The place was flooded with people.
And I was assigned this guy whose leg was mangled, and he was in pain, and he was yelling and screaming at me, and I couldn't stop the bleeding.
I called for help, and everyone was busy.
And this guy, he started kicking and yelling at me, and I let go of the compression, and he bled out.
And he kept yelling at me until he was dead.
I faked illness for the rest of the week.
As soon as I could, I switched to psychiatry.
See, I ran.
And my father was a surgeon.
And that's all I ever wanted, was to make him proud.
I haven't been through a plane crash, but I know what it's like not to push through what you wanna do.
And you saved yourself, Natasha.
That's not wrong.
No, it's human.
It is.
And I don't wanna push you to be scared.
I wanna push you past being scared so you can have what you want, so you can have the life you wanted to have.
And I know I'm not Violet, but I can help you.
So just please let me help you.
The ambulance arrived.
We're gonna be taking him now.
I'm sorry, you can't.
The nurses just paged me.
His oxygen levels have dropped.
It's probably due to the infection or the fluid that's collecting in his lungs.
Is that right? Look, if you take him now, you'll have a body on your hands by the time you get there.
Thank you.
Dr.
Montgomery's delivering your baby.
If you wanna see him, put this mask on and start acting sicker.
I think you're lying.
You sure? Are you a doctor? You might wanna step back.
He's very contagious.
Wouldn't wanna put you at risk.
We'll wait till he's stable.
Henry.
- I asked Henry to come because - He can fix it, May.
- You can fix it? - I can try to fix it.
There are breakthroughs being made in desensitizing people of this type of allergy.
Desensitizing? How? I would use injections of Henry's seminal fluid.
Expose you to small traces and build up your immune response over time.
- How much time? - Could take six months.
Maybe a year.
There's no guarantee this will work.
Look, I told you that it would be okay, you could move on, but what you two have, I envy it.
So maybe it's enough to survive for some time with no sex.
He's beautiful.
He's so beautiful.
Thank you.
Okay, I can't stall anymore.
You gotta go now.
- I love you.
- And I love you.
Do I think about you when I'm with her? Yeah.
But I can't wait around for something I can't have.
I won't.
And you shouldn't expect me to.
Sourdough.
I've been to San Francisco today, on a plane, with the patient who was afraid to fly.
She did great.
So that's my way of saying thanks - for kicking my butt into gear and - Congratulations.
You did it.
No.
No, you did it.
So take the thanks, take the sourdough, and, well, take this.
I know you're not a huggy-type person, but I really needed to do that.
Didn't kill me.
Well, I should go.
Sheldon.
Do you like martinis? I ran track in high school.
Well, I went out for the team.
I didn't make it, because I had asthma, but I can run pretty fast.
I'm sorry, what is your point? My point is that I'm ready to chase you.
But you better be ready to get caught.
- You're very good with the lines.
- Yes.
Yes, I am.
Charlotte.
Charlotte, if you're here, I tried calling.
I gotta send Violet her mail.
Cooper? What the hell are you doing here? I'll be gone in a minute.
I just got Charlotte made martinis.
I think he's lost his Zen.
- So you're off to the ballet? - Yes, I am.
- Is that what you're wearing? - Why? Well, I was just gonna say you look stunning.
- Shall we? - Yeah.
He's moved on.
So has she.
I don't want to alarm you, but I'm going to cry now.
I'm gonna hold you while you cry.
