The Resident (2018) s04e04 Episode Script

Moving on and Mother Hens

1 - Previously on The Resident - I saw Yorn.
Did he say why he hasn't hired a CEO? They're selling the hospital.
- Oh.
- I need to show Yorn that Chastain is worth a hell of a lot more than he thinks it is.
My father, when he died, I didn't even get to say goodbye.
What I would do for just one more day with my dad.
Sorry.
Losing someone is never easy.
I'll get someone to cover for you.
No.
I'm okay.
I just need a minute.
(TAKES DEEP BREATH) It's official.
A baby? (LAUGHING) (LAUGHS) - (BELL TINKLES) - (LAUGHS): What is this? Uh, breakfast in bed.
- Where did you even get this? - Ah NIC: Pancakes? Your favorite.
- Blue wildflowers.
- Aw Nic's favorite berries.
Ah! Get in there, get in there.
All right.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Whose dad do we want to call first, yours or mine? I think we should wait a little longer.
Well, sure, there's no rush to tell anyone.
I mean, right? Your pregnancy is already further along than it was last time.
This time is gonna be different, and it's it's gonna be okay.
You know that, right? But we can't.
I had a miscarriage, and it was awful.
And if it happens again, I don't want to have to tell everyone, so I just just want to wait a little longer, okay? Of course.
Whatever you want.
Thank you.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR) (DEVON GROANS) (KNOCKING CONTINUES) I'm coming.
(GROANS) (RAPID KNOCKING) All right! Did I park in someone's spot or something? - (RAPID KNOCKING) - (SIGHS) Okay! Mom.
What are you - what are you doing here? - Surprise.
I thought I'd finally come visit my s What happened to you? Oh, my God.
Were you in a car accident? I knew something was wrong.
I knew it.
A mother always knows.
Mom, I'm fine.
We had an ER patient with psychosis, and someone should have restrained him immediately, but we missed it, and then he was swinging at a nurse, and I uh, went in to help.
Yeah, in retrospect, I should have just left it to the security.
You are a hero.
My poor boy.
(SIGHS) But where are your pajamas, huh? And, uh what is that smell? You know, just wait right here.
I just got to I'll wash up.
Hey, don't worry.
I-I'm going to take care of everything.
(SIGHS) (PANTING) - (INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER P.
A.
) - (FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) (AUSTIN CHUCKLES) The way you drive like a hellion, I was sure you'd beat me here.
Normally, I would beat you here, because you drive like a nun, but today I stopped for this.
- Doughnuts.
- Mm.
Maple.
I believe they're your favorite.
(CHUCKLES) And I believe you mentioned a fondness for breakfast burritos.
Oh, I do not hate this part of being in a relationship.
Oh, such high praise.
Tell me, what can I do to make sure you stay this effusive? There is one thing.
Uh, you can (TAKES DEEP BREATH) marry me.
My 0-1 visa is expiring.
I knew it was coming, so I applied way in advance.
Yesterday I found out it was denied.
Mina, you should have told me this yesterday.
I was gonna tell you when I came over last night, but you had made such a nice dinner, and I didn't want to ruin it, so I said nothing.
And then we got occupied with other things.
I don't understand why the government would deny your renewal, as many American lives as you've saved.
Since February of 2020, Nigerians are no longer able to obtain visas to immigrate to the U.
S.
permanently.
If I want to stay, I have to find a way to renew my current visa or marry an American citizen.
- You are terrible at this.
- I applied months in advance.
No, no, I mean this.
You know, Mina, proposals usually come with a ring.
- And a carefully crafted speech - (CLEARS THROAT) about commitment and love, full of compliments.
Flowers wouldn't hurt, either.
- Okay, so will you do it? - (STAMMERS) You didn't even buy me a nice dinner first.
I got you doughnuts.
True.
And they're maple.
Hey.
Come here.
Mm (INHALES) Breathe.
It's gonna be okay, Mina.
We can make this work.
All right? Love.
Honor.
Obey.
Ooh, I love the way that sounds.
- Don't you? - Okay, uh, maybe we are rushing this.
Oh, no, we're definitely rushing this.
(AUSTIN CHUCKLES) What's that about? Good morning.
Good question.
How's the other guy look? Funny.
I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a bike ride in the middle of the night.
And it was pitch black, and I was tired.
Yeah, I know.
- It was stupid.
- Mm.
I, uh, hit a curb and I wiped out.
Oh, and then my mother showed up this morning unannounced and, uh, I lied to her about it, because I didn't want her to worry.
(SCOFFS) Anything else you want to know? Well, your father passed away, and It's been months.
- I'm fine.
- You're not fine.
You're grieving.
You don't need to put a timeline on it.
Getting through it takes as long as it takes.
- Let's just talk about how you're feeling.
- Okay.
I said fine.
You don't need to ask me again.
WOMAN: Excuse me? Excuse me? Can we get some help? Okay, what's going on? My daughter Trinity needs medical attention.
No, I don't.
What's happening, Trinity? Show them.
It looks worse than it is.
My mom is making this a big thing.
Your hand looks like a sea monster.
It's a big thing.
Whatever.
I tripped on the stairs.
You, too? Um, bike accident.
I don't need sedation.
Just pop my fingers back into place.
Trust me, I have a high pain tolerance.
Look how well she tolerated the existential pain of being stuck at home with her mom during lockdown.
I was supposed to speak at my graduation.
Then I didn't go to college in the fall 'cause it's all distance learning.
Apologies for our family drama.
It's been a year.
Well, we're ready to fix your fingers if you really want to do it that way.
- CONRAD: Positive? - Yep.
Okay.
Trinity, look at your mom.
Let's remember the good parts of lockdown.
- (CRACKS) - (GRUNTING) The tap shoes.
The quail.
- (CRACKS) - (GRUNTS) - Quail? - We incubated eggs and raised them to adulthood.
- Kept the only girl.
- Sidney Vicious.
Ah, Sidney Vicious.
I love that name.
She's coming with me when I get my own apartment, which I'm supposed to look at today.
(WHISPERS): Finally.
You're all done.
You should be good to apartment hunt now.
Actually, there's something else.
- This wasn't Trinity's first fall.
- Mom, stop.
- You said we didn't have to - She's been off lately.
Something with her balance, maybe.
We can take a look at that.
I said no.
I just want to go and get my If you want a cosigner for that apartment, you will stay in that bed and let the doctors work.
CONRAD: It will be quick.
We'll get X-rays on your hand just to be safe.
And then we'll be back for a full physical.
I'll let imaging know.
MAN (OVER P.
A.
): Procurement coordinator to the ICU.
Quail.
Maybe Nic and I need to bring some variety to our chicken coop, huh? Well, it sounds like Trinity wants independence more than any bird.
I hear the mother-daughter thing can be tough sometimes.
Yeah, the mother-son thing is no walk in the park, either.
My mom wants to know where I keep the disinfectant, the trash bags, the good toilet paper.
- (LAUGHS) - This is the last thing I need right now.
I don't know.
Maybe you can set some boundaries with her or something? I'm not really looking for advice here.
I'm doing my job, I'm not making any mistakes.
Anything beyond that is not your business.
It's my business that my friend is upset and grieving.
Can you stop trying to doctor this? Okay? I need a minute.
Can you handle the exam? - Yeah.
- Okay.
So the good news is that the PR coming in from my show's segment on the patient helped.
And Yorn thinks that Chastain might still be valuable enough to take selling the hospital off the table.
The bad news is, they're talking about filling the empty CEO seat with me.
I thought you weren't keen on the job anymore, - you were focusing on surgery.
- Trust me, I don't want it.
Even if I said yes, Red Rock could still dump Chastain if we don't rebound financially.
And we'd be under the thumb of some other conglomerate.
And there are companies out there that are way worse than Red Rock.
Well, here's something to cheer you up.
There's a rather attractive young woman over there who can't take her eyes off you.
Do you know her? No.
- No.
- Oh.
Here she comes.
I'm so sorry to interrupt, but can I? Interrupt, I mean? (LAUGHS) I love your show.
- Ah.
- That segment on scurvy.
I-I don't have scurvy, but you made me feel like I did.
Well, that's high praise.
That's that's very kind of you.
- What's your name? - Fiona.
Well, it's lovely to meet you, Fiona.
Thank-thank you for watching the show.
You're so nice.
Could I? - Yeah.
Of course.
Of course.
- (LAUGHS) (CAMERA CLICKS) This is my lucky day.
- Thank you.
- You bet.
You are so happy right now.
- No comments from you.
- (LAUGHING) All right.
I've got some good news for you, Trinity.
- Nothing's broken.
- TRINITY: Great.
I don't need any more tests? Let's get out of here.
(CHUCKLES): No.
Get back in that bed.
Trinity? Walk toward me.
Your steps are uneven.
Did you feel a little off-balance when you fell? I mean, I wasn't totally awake yet.
I was tired.
I feel like I've been tired the whole (GRUNTS) - What's wrong? - Nothing.
My heart's a little fluttery, that's all.
(GROANS) Heather.
Need to get her on the monitor.
Let's see what's going on.
I'm fine.
- I'm f - (MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY) I knew it.
What's wrong with her? CONRAD: Easy, easy, easy.
(BEEPING STOPS) She just fainted.
What happened? You just bought yourself some more time in the hospital.
Got a call I have a visitor.
Hi again.
- (CHUCKLES) - Um Fiona? Right? I'm sorry to drop in unannounced.
I'll be quick.
I'm actually curious about employment at Chastain.
- (CHUCKLES) - Uh, well (STAMMERS) I admire the gusto.
Um, hiring is sort of (CHUCKLES) - It's outside my purview.
- I know, it's just I'm I'm trying to switch paths, so I'm looking for something entry-level.
And after seeing the way that you talk about Chastain on your show, and then when I met you in person, I got all inspired.
It felt like fate.
Well, HR is on two, east wing.
And you can tell them Dr.
Bell sent you.
(CHUCKLES): Thank you so much.
- You're amazing.
- Okay.
Yes! (CHUCKLES) Hey.
So I assume you've spoken to Mina.
I talk to Mina all the time.
So you know about the proposal? No.
No, you-you did not propose.
You've been dating for, like, five seconds.
- Why would you jump the gun like that? - Mina Okafor proposed to me.
Yeah, she needs a green card so she doesn't get deported.
- What? - Yeah.
(SIGHS) How can I help? Well You can help plan a wedding.
It has to happen quick, so it can't be elaborate.
You know, small guest list, tasteful, intimate.
Wait, so this is a real wedding? Well, under normal circumstances, it'd be way too early.
- Way.
- But we will rise to the occasion.
And just figure out if you want to be married - while being married.
- (PAGER VIBRATING) Well, that's what most people do anyway, right? They're just not honest about it.
All right.
Oh.
Duty calls.
You are a doll.
(NIC SIGHS) Nic? You okay? (INHALES SHARPLY) Yeah.
Are you okay? Yeah.
Well, it turns out biking at night is not a good idea, which is why I was looking for you.
Uh, I need a small favor.
- Okay.
- So, I can't sleep.
And I am exhausted.
So I was taking meds to help, but my doctor's out of town, so he can't refill the script.
- Mm-hmm? - So I just need something to sleep, just enough for a couple days.
I mean, Devon, we're friends.
We don't have a clinical relationship.
I know, but if-if I don't sleep, I'm not gonna be able to focus.
And I'm not gonna ask Conrad, 'cause he's gonna worry for nothing.
My next day off, I'll go straight to the doctor.
- Are you on any other medication? - No.
And this is just to get you over the hump? Yes, this one time.
All right, I'm sending this to the pharmacy.
Zolpidem, five milligrams.
I'm only giving you three pills.
- If you need more, you go to your doctor.
- For sure.
Thank you.
(SIGHS) Hey, are you sure you're okay? Yeah.
Good.
(SIGHS DEEPLY) Trinity's arrhythmia broke on its own.
Her heart is structurally normal.
So why are these cardiac events happening? This is a 19-year-old female with sporadic runs of non-sustained V tach that are symptomatic.
Echo is not impressive.
Interesting.
That is a wide-open box.
- Any other history? - Her mother reports difficulty with coordination.
Otherwise healthy.
All right, well, keep her on telemetry.
And grab me another EKG now that she's in sinus.
Will do.
Come in.
Sorry again.
(CHUCKLES) I left my résumé with the lady in HR.
Is there something else? I thought you'd want to see it.
Okay.
Thank you.
This is not a résumé.
- Let's call it my headshot.
- Oh, no, no.
This is No, no.
This is not your head.
And-and this, this is not appropriate.
You know, I'm gonna ask you - to leave.
- (BEEPS) - Don't pretend this isn't real.
- Just - stand back.
Kit.
- I know you want me.
Kit.
Dr.
Voss.
Could you come in here for just - just a moment? - Yes, Randolph.
I know you.
- You're the girl from this morning.
- Fiona.
(QUIETLY): She's acting psychotic.
And security's been notified.
- You called security? - Well (STAMMERS) because we are gonna get you some We're gonna get you some help.
(GROWLING) (BARKING LOUDLY) Stop her! Stop her! - Fiona.
Fiona.
Fiona.
- I need five of Haldol for IM.
Look at me.
Look at me.
We're gonna get you some help.
We'll take a little trip down to the ER.
I'll be there with you the whole time.
(GROWLING, GRUNTING) KIT: There you go.
There you go, darling.
Just give it a minute.
You'll be okay.
(PANTING) Nice work.
- (PHONE RINGS) - (EXHALES) Hey, Mom.
Can you pick up laundry detergent on your way home? - I had plenty.
- Now you have none, but you have clean clothes and linens.
You didn't have to do that.
(SIGHS) Your home is lonely.
You are lonely.
You need a partner.
No.
No, I don't.
No, don't-don't do that.
Check your phone.
Don't forget the detergent.
Love you.
(PHONE CHIMES) (SCOFFS) (QUIETLY): Are you getting deported? I will kill AJ Austin.
(SCOFFS) You can't marry a corpse, Mina.
(SIGHS) Why didn't you tell me? Uh, because saying it makes it real.
Not saying it doesn't change that.
I didn't want you to get upset.
All right? It's not an ideal situation, but AJ and I are handling it.
We'll do it quickly.
And I'll be safe from deportation.
"Quickly"? He wants a wedding.
This is real to him.
Of course it's real.
Sort of real.
It's also business.
A real marriage and a business arrangement are two separate things.
- I mean, it can't be both.
- Why not? By definition, a marriage is a business arrangement.
You are linking your finances, your housing arrangement, your professional and biological plans to someone else.
It makes sense.
It makes sense if you're in love.
Are you in love with him? Okay.
The reason I didn't want you to get upset is because I think you also have a secret.
Yesterday, you took a power nap in the nurses' lounge.
You have developed the superpower - to smell doughnuts a hall away.
- (SIGHS) Your hair is extra lustrous.
And some might say you're glowing.
(CHUCKLES SOFTLY) - Okay, it's early.
- Mm-hmm.
- I'm not ready to talk about it.
- Okay.
I will keep your secret.
Please keep mine.
For now.
And congratulations.
(FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING) Your girl here is a missing person.
I called her house and talked to her roommate.
Two days ago, she left for groceries and never came home.
Pravesh said her head CT came back normal.
No drugs in her system.
Did the roommate say anything about a history - of mental illness? - I asked.
None that she knew of.
She's trying to get in touch with her family on the West Coast.
Then maybe this is a new diagnosis.
- It might be her first psychotic break.
- Mm.
She's in the right age range.
Can't treat her till we find out what it is.
Well, Dr.
Pravesh is on his way to do a full exam.
- I'll keep you posted.
- Okay.
Thank you.
Lots of people faint.
True.
But you fainted because your heart was beating abnormally.
We need to find out why.
We ordered a few more lab tests, okay, Trinity? Mmm.
Your coffee smells like heaven.
- Is that hazelnut? - Yeah.
- I'm gonna go get us some, Trin.
- That's weird.
I can't smell it.
What do you mean you can't smell it? (SNIFFS) What about this? My perfume? She can't have COVID, can she? Let's all just take a breath.
Loss of smell can be a symptom of multiple things.
No, no, no, no.
We were so careful.
We-we-we got all our groceries delivered.
- We didn't see friends.
We - It could be allergies or a cold.
Even when we joined a pod and we tested positive, we-we-we were lucky because we didn't have any symptoms.
- Okay.
Good, good.
- (BREATHING HEAVILY) The danger's supposed to be over.
It's supposed to be safe.
(MUMBLES) - Whoa.
- Mom.
- Whoa.
Gotcha, gotcha.
- Mom! Mom - are you okay? - Your mom's stable.
They're just taking a look at her heart with an ultrasound.
MINA: Akinesis of the postero-basal wall.
Circumflex infarct.
That explains the non-diagnostic EKG.
Is that bad? It sounds bad.
Your mom collapsed because she's actually having a heart attack right now.
Oh, my God.
How is that possible? Her EKG shows evidence of another heart attack in the past.
Has your mom ever had chest pain or shortness of breath before? The protests.
When George Floyd was murdered.
We made our signs and we went out there.
It was supposed to be peaceful, but it didn't matter.
They tear gassed us all.
That must've been awful.
I recovered pretty quickly, but Mom said she felt like an elephant was sitting on her chest.
I wanted to take her to the hospital, but she was afraid we were gonna catch COVID again.
Back then, we didn't know if that was possible.
She was afraid.
Okay, that could be it.
Tear gas can cause stress on the heart and aggravate cardiac issues.
Your mom has a good chance of recovery.
We need to get her to a cath lab now.
We'll put a stent in to open up the clogged arteries in her heart.
Don't worry.
It's a routine procedure, okay? Mom? I love you.
I love you, too, baby girl.
I'll be right back to cosign for that apartment.
Okay.
AUSTIN: Okay, you got to get it closer to the vessel wall before you deploy.
I'm trying to rotate it, but I can't get the stent into position.
Well, see, it's a tight spot.
(MONITOR BEEPING) No blood flow.
She's in V tach! Charge the defib to 200.
Any sign of trauma? Not yet.
There's no bruising, no breaks in the skin at all.
It looks like Fiona works as a paralegal while in law school.
No edema.
No rashes.
She posts pictures of her food and her feet in sandals.
No clues there.
BELL: Uh, hold on.
There's bruising on her lower flank.
Grey Turner's sign? Wait, wait.
Feel this.
You're right.
There's a mass.
Let's take a look.
BELL: It's right there.
It's a tumor right above her kidney.
Extending deep towards her spine.
How long has she been walking around with that in her? If this is an adrenal tumor secreting hormones, it could be causing her psychosis.
Certainly could explain her interest in the famous Dr.
Bell.
Zoom in.
There active extravasation.
She's got a retroperitoneal bleed.
Could've happened when she was fighting with security.
Well, if we don't get it out soon, she's just gonna bleed out.
I'll get an OR ready.
CONRAD: I gave the lab a heads-up about putting a rush on Trinity's bloodwork.
Nope.
It's not my business.
- You do you.
- It's not a dating app.
It's my mom.
It's the tenth eligible woman she's sent me today.
You getting enough sleep? Oh, you're talking to Nic? No, but if she noticed you look tired, it's because you do.
Yeah, I'm tired.
But I'm handling it.
I get it.
I've been there.
So much of what we fight against is preventable.
It's like why am I drowning in debt for this? It's exhausting.
I don't know how many different ways - I can tell you that I'm fine.
- You don't have to talk to me I'll give you a name, someone good.
But I'm not looking to talk to anyone.
Drop it.
(KNOCKING ON DOOR) - Hi.
- How's my mom? Is she okay? Dr.
Austin and Dr.
Okafor are still with her in the cath lab.
While we're waiting, we want to run a couple other tests on you.
I bet your mom would feel better if we had some answers when she came out.
Put your hands up like this.
Okay.
This is my fault, isn't it? I pushed back about everything.
I argued with her all last year.
I'm why she was so stressed.
No.
No, you didn't do this.
This past year was stressful for everyone.
CONRAD: You can't blame yourself for circumstances that are out of your control.
That was a near miss with that stent deployment.
Fine job back there.
- We do make a good team.
- (LAUGHS) That we do.
I have bad news.
I spoke to an immigration lawyer.
If we get married, it could raise red flags.
Why? We've known each other for years.
It's easy to prove we have a basis for a real marriage.
But this version of us is new.
We don't have photos or records of vacations together.
The government will ask "Why now?" They can ask all the questions they want.
We got nothing to hide.
The lawyer said the presumption will be that our marriage is not bona fide.
If there is an investigation and it goes badly, I'll get deported and not allowed back in the country.
Not allowed back in the country? You could face felony charges for perjury.
Not if I don't perjure myself.
Mina, if we end up in court, I will tell them the truth.
The marriage is real.
Unless you're saying you don't think it'll be real.
Okay, AJ, you're not hearing me.
If we get married right after my visa denial, no matter what we say or do, I can still get deported.
It's putting us both at risk and I refuse to do that.
- So you're saying the wedding is off.
- I am.
We've got to deal with this bigger problem first.
You can't marry or even date someone who isn't here.
Ah.
Murgh makhani, bharta, coconut barfi, all of your favorites.
Mom, the hospital has a cafeteria.
Well, now you don't have to go there.
Or come home to filth.
Your room was particularly a disaster.
- I discarded these things.
- Okay, stop.
Okay? Did you like any of the pictures that I sent you? Hmm? Listen, I am not there right now.
Dating is not exactly on my radar, okay? Let-Let's go.
I thought we could eat together.
God, you cannot just show up at my job and expect me to drop everything and go eat barfi with you.
You need to listen.
I-I eat cafeteria food, I have women over who might not be Indian, and that is my choice.
I don't want any of this.
I don't need it.
You should have asked before coming here.
We both miss your father.
I thought we could help each other.
Well, you should have called first.
My calls go straight to voice mail.
And when you do answer, it's always, "I only have a minute", or "I have to get back".
I didn't ask if I could visit because I knew you'd say no.
(EXHALES) Two minutes in the microwave.
Well, the famous Sidney Vicious won't be lonely tonight.
We should be able to get you out of here soon.
You have a rare genetic disease called Refsum syndrome.
- Does my mom have it, too? - No.
She's a carrier of the mutation, but to get the disease, you have to have two genetic defects.
Basically, y-your body isn't able to process a certain type of fat.
Over time, that causes toxicity to multiple organs.
That's why you were falling.
And it's why your heart was giving you trouble.
Here's the good news: it's totally manageable.
We caught it early, which is fantastic.
And my buddy Dr.
Pravesh and I, we think changes in your diet are gonna do the trick.
So we'll hook you up with a nutritionist, and we'll schedule regular appointments to keep an eye on everything.
I acted like everything was fine because I wanted it to be.
You wanted life to be normal.
We all do.
Yeah, but Mom knew something was wrong with me.
Yeah, well, sometimes our parents see things that we don't see in ourselves.
I stomped around like the world was happening to me.
While she was the one who actually had something wrong.
CONRAD: Eh, don't take that on.
You and your mom, you got through the impossible.
Cut yourself a break.
Celebrate it.
I've been so annoyed with my mom this whole time, but now it's like I just want her to be okay.
- I need her.
- (PHONE VIBRATING) I'm pretty sure she needs you, too.
It's Nic.
Go.
CONRAD: Oh, wow.
Doesn't matter how many times I've seen one of these.
It's different when it's ours.
It's magical.
Oh, look.
That's the heartbeat.
(BOTH LAUGH) - Ah.
Looks like a fighter.
- GABBI: I agree.
Growing just like it should be.
That is a perfect baby.
(EXHALES): This is good.
I love you.
I love you, too.
(EXHALES) Want to know what you're having? - (LAUGHS) - Uh TRINITY: Mom? Mom? I'm right here, Mama.
Hi, baby.
The doctors fixed your heart.
We managed to place a stent in your blocked artery.
You get to go home in a couple of days.
Well, we didn't make it to your apartment.
It's okay.
I'm not moving out anymore.
I'm gonna stay home with you.
The hell you are.
You think I helped those wings grow strong just to clip them? You're ready to fly.
But what if you need me? Then I'll call you.
BELL: Pickups to me.
KIT: These buggers are everywhere.
BELL: Well, we're making good progress.
Last time with one of these tumors, it took hours to ligate all vessels.
KIT: I think we're lucky she's young, and we caught this while it was still small.
BELL: Metz? KIT: I see why you don't want to be CEO.
You're a wizard in the OR.
Still, Chastain needs you.
It's about quality of life, Kit.
That's why you should do it.
As CEO, you can hire anyone you want.
- (SCOFFS) - Remind me, Randolph.
What are the "Cs of medical cash flow"? - I'm not doing that.
- I'll start.
Chemo, cataracts, colonoscopies.
- Come on, give me one.
- Cancer.
Already covered when I said "chemo".
Try again.
Cosmetic surgery.
There you go.
You could gain financial ground by hiring a rock star - plastic surgeon.
- (SCOFFS) Like your stepson Jake.
- Cauterize.
- I am.
Trust me, the kid doesn't want to be anywhere near me, much less work under me.
Maybe you could sweeten the deal if you took Yorn's offer.
Did I did I give you a picture? Don't worry.
It went straight in the shredder.
Never mind.
I don't want to remember anything else.
No, it's not your fault.
You had a very rare type of tumor that secreted hormones, and it caused your behavior to change.
What happens now? KIT: We have to wait for pathology results to stage it appropriately, but we have some of the finest oncologists here who will help with the next steps.
BELL: And we can already see your mental status is improving.
Try not to be embarrassed.
If you hadn't followed Dr.
Bell here, who knows when you would've been diagnosed.
- Okay.
But still, Dr.
Bell.
- Mm.
You're like four decades too old for me.
I don't think four is right.
You're like my grandpa.
Or father.
KIT: It's fortunate we caught it when we did.
- Get some rest.
- (BELL CLEARS THROAT) Let's go, Gramps.
Thanks.
Hey, Nic.
- Hey.
- Um I'm giving these back to you.
And, um, I shouldn't have put you in that weird position.
I'm sorry.
It did feel strange giving them to you.
Um, but are you okay? Everyone keeps asking me that.
I guess I need to figure it out.
Yeah, figuring it out will help.
And you know I'm here if you need anything, right? Yeah.
- Thanks again.
- Mm.
What's all that about? Well, I was just texting everybody.
- Check your phone.
- (PHONE VIBRATES) DEVON: I was with Nic when she sent that text.
She didn't say why.
- Do you know why we're here? - We'll find out soon enough.
I'm guessing a baby.
They just got married.
- It's got to be a baby.
- Shh.
Don't jinx it.
We wanted you to be the first to know.
- You're having a baby? - Don't jinx it.
(LAUGHS) - Guess it was obvious.
- Oh! - Fantastic news.
- Yeah, I'll have that now.
Here you go.
Here you go.
- You want to do the honors? - Thank you.
It's a girl.
(CHEERING) You didn't waste any time there.
(LAUGHTER) Yay! Congrats! Cheers.
Cheers.
DEVON: All right.
Reason.
(FOOD SIZZLING) (SNIFFING) (DOOR CLOSES) Hey, Mom.
I wanted to see for myself that you are okay.
And now that I have, I will be on a plane tomorrow.
(SIGHS) No.
Mom, I'm I'm sorry I lied to you.
I didn't get this from an ER patient.
I told my friends at work that I got in a bike accident, and that was a lie, too.
(SIGHS) Last night, I went to a bar, and there was this guy, six foot five, huge arms, minding his own business.
I just got in a fight with him.
Oh, Devon.
Mom, that's not even the first dumb thing I've done.
I just keep thinking about Dad, you know, and what I could have done different.
You know? You cannot blame yourself.
If I just moved him to a different hospital, or spoke to his doctors more often If I had made him stop driving that taxi.
No, Mom.
That was his choice.
And then, the system failed him.
And it failed us.
Listen, that isn't your fault.
Well, it's not yours, either.
(SNIFFLES) No, his death was out of our control.
(EXHALES): Yeah.
We need each other.
Okay? Please stay.
(SIGHS) (SNIFFLES) I will.
I will.
Mm.
(SNIFFLES) (SIGHS) Someone has to help you eat all of this food.
(LAUGHS) (SNIFFLES) You could always make a nice dinner for one of the lovely women in the pictures that I sent you.
Oh, my You don't quit.
AJ? Well, if you came here to wish me good luck, I'm offended.
I can do an inguinal hernia repair in my sleep.
I'm not here for luck.
I need to tell you something.
I'm listening.
I don't often apologize, because I rarely make mistakes, but today, I made one.
I shouldn't have proposed to you like that without doing the proper research.
You had every right to be upset.
You were in a tough spot.
You still are.
I asked you the impossible and you agreed without hesitation.
I'm grateful for that.
Okay.
Nic asked me if I'm in love with you.
I didn't know what to say then, but now I do.
It's yes.
I am in love with you.
(LAUGHING) So the end of today's roller coaster ride is here.
And what a beautiful ending it is.
Except, I may still be deported.
No.
No, no, that's not gonna happen.
We are not gonna let that happen, guaranteed.
You know I love you, too, right? I suspected so.
What'd I tell you? Huh? Magnificent lobby.
- I think it would fall right in line with what - Jacob.
Your, uh, office was my next stop after I finished this tour.
Well, uh, pardon the interruption.
Do you mind if I just steal him for just a moment? I've decided to accept Red Rock's generous offer.
I'm confident, as CEO, I can turn our financial situation around.
And I have some initial thoughts about Since last we spoke, Red Rock has had to make some very difficult decisions.
So that CEO spot no longer open.
Who are you filling it with? No one.
We sold Chastain.
Well, um, I'll be happy to work with the new conglomerate in any way Look around.
Look around.
We are standing on a prime piece of real estate.
These buyers are developers.
Yeah.
They're turning Chastain into luxury condos.
My apologies.
Why don't we walk over to the elevators here.
I want you guys to get that magnificent view from up top.
