New Amsterdam (2018) s04e12 Episode Script

1 Well, I did it for love.
I left behind a dream job and 7-Elevens, the Yankees The things we do, right? But, really, living in London has just been the absolute best, truly.
That's great to hear, Dr.
Goodwin.
And I just got my medical license in the UK.
Not in the U.
S.
Had that one already.
So I'm ready to go back to work.
You just say the word.
We're looking for a urologist.
Not the word I was hoping for.
Get your head in the game.
Tell me about your most recent employment.
NHS Hampstead.
Ah, yes.
In what capacity? - Receptionist.
- Receptionist? - Mm-hmm.
- And the reason you left? Ha.
Kind of a funny story.
I got fired by my girlfriend for starting an insurrection.
That sounds worse than it is.
Here we go.
For six years where I specialized in the study of infectious diseases.
That is one incredible CV, Dr.
Goodwin.
Well, those are just the highlights.
The full reel would really knock your socks off.
Well, you certainly are qualified.
Thank you.
One might say overly qualified.
Really? Who would say that? Uh, I would not say that.
I would say I'm just exactly The right level of qualified.
Hiring someone who could so easily replace me doesn't sound like the wisest of ideas.
And before that, you were medical director of New Amsterdam in New York City.
Perhaps you should have led with that.
I, uh ha ha note taken.
May we reach out to the current medical director, Veronica Fuentes, for a reference? I'd really rather you didn't.
It's gonna work out.
Look, I-I know there are a million reasons not to hire me, but-but I need this.
I mean, I love this.
This is what I was trained to do provide care, healing, helping people.
I don't care if I have to see patients in some back alley I will do it.
I-I just I'm begging you.
Please.
Just put me back to work.
- It's a no.
- No.
Apologies but no.
We just don't have a position for you, but I have no doubt you'll land some place wonderful.
- It's a no.
- No.
- No.
- No.
No no How is she? She still spotting? All good there, but, you know, being on bed rest for 23 hours a day is working her last nerve, as am I.
Yeah, I guess we're both in the doghouse.
Yeah.
But, hey, thanks for covering for me, man.
I got a few job interviews.
If she needs anything Of course, I'm happy to help.
Okay.
All right.
Yeah.
- Just 'scuse me.
- Sorry.
Yes.
Hey, Floyd, um do you know your way around? No.
No, no, no.
I've never been inside here.
I ha haven't been anywhere.
Okay, um bedroom's upstairs.
- Right.
- Okay.
Yeah.
The lab called.
They want all blood cultures sent in duplicate.
Also, for the love of God, please stop ordering SED rates.
And, uh obviously, Dr.
Shinwari dropped out of the residency program, but she failed to fill out some exit paperwork and she didn't leave any forwarding information.
Somebody here must know where she is, right? It's for official paperwork, okay? You wouldn't be betraying any trust or anything like that.
Look, I know that one of you knows where she is, okay? So just Nico Jerrino, 33, unconscious, massive contusion.
Hit his head on the stairs at Madison square garden.
All right.
Let's get him to Trauma One.
Secondary survey, clear his spine and order head CT.
You know the drill.
No, it's personal.
And I'm only here in a professional capacity.
Okay.
Maybe I will tell you after our insurrectionist meeting, which, by the way, is highly unprofessional.
Hi.
- Hi.
- Hi.
What are you doing here? - Nothing.
- Uh, nothing.
I like to come here and think.
I get that.
Dead bodies are pretty quiet.
Although if you listen with your root chakra, you can hear them from the other side.
Uh It's a joke.
I'm not crazy, remember? Right.
Totally.
So you were looking for me.
Yes.
Veronica placed me in the oncology department.
So I wanted to reach out and connect.
She did? Why? Well, my work can be very helpful with patients who are going through chemo and radiation and, you know, we're both new here.
So I thought we could work together, show each other where the bodies are buried.
Pun intended.
And accomplished.
So I guess I'll see you around.
Great.
Are your sessions always this action-packed? No, this one's the wildest.
Well, like I've said, this is your time, so Pssh.
Not really.
These check-ins are mandated by the higher-ups, aren't they? Yeah.
That's right.
So I'll be checking in with all of your coworkers over the course of the year.
Job's fine.
Marriage is fine.
You don't wanna be doing better than fine? Well, at the end of a shift, I'm too tired for much excitement.
What's that look like? The fatigue.
Tell me about that.
I lay down on the couch, grab a couple cold ones.
Turn the TV on.
My wife asks me questions about my day, which I don't wanna talk about.
She gets mad.
I get defensive.
Typical marriage, right? But you used to interact more, right, with your wife? Why'd you stop? Like I said, I'm tired.
When did this start? Time to go to work.
- Great talk.
- Yeah.
Okay.
Now, remember, as per your employer, I will be observing you for the rest of the day, so Yeah.
Let's roll.
Mr.
Jerrino.
Hi, I'm Dr.
Bloom.
You're at New Amsterdam Hospital.
You remember hitting your head? Who won the game? Excuse me? Knicks.
Who won? Oh, uh, I don't know.
I can ask around later.
Can you check, please? Now? It's really important.
Super important.
I was wearing my lucky jersey, and we were up by 10, - and I think this could be the - Okay.
- Okay.
- Oh, wait.
Wh-where is my jersey? All your belongings are in that bag - at the foot of the bed.
- Oh, thank God.
Some people think it's trashy 'cause I only wash it when they win.
Like a cleanse, you know? But it's getting kinda 99-96.
Knicks lost.
No, impossible.
Can I see? Damn it! They blew it.
No D.
They threw it away.
Out-rebounded again.
And dumb fouls.
God, they suck! What a waste.
I feel nauseous.
Um metaphorically? I can't I can't get enough air.
Your oxygen levels are good.
Let's get a crash cart over here now.
Hey.
Yeah, it's me.
Just got here.
Um, interviews went, uh, really great.
Yeah.
A lot of good opportunities, so - it's gonna be hard to, uh - Me leg's killing me.
- There are no cancellations.
- To pick one.
- We'll see you in four weeks.
- Just hold tight.
Anyways, I'll, uh, wait around for a little bit.
And, uh, if you're, uh, too busy, I'll just, um I'll see you at home.
- Love you.
- Would you like if I unscrew me leg, then, and leave it here? It's not doing me any good, you know.
We'll see you in a month, Mr.
Chiltern.
- What's that? - Some information.
Number 37.
Uh Mr.
Chiltern, I'm Dr.
Max Goodwin.
How can I help? Médecins Sans Frontières on the Afghan border? Oh my gosh what a powerful experience that must have been.
It got me to understand how much we doctors can do with very few resources.
I know Hampstead's on a slim budget, but there's so much to be done with what's at hand.
I couldn't agree more.
When I became medical director, I had this overwhelming responsibility that I had to impart the best of myself to this institution, knowing that it was a direct reflection of me, of my values, my principles.
"Do not follow where the path may lead.
Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.
" Emerson.
It was a pleasure meeting you, Dr.
Sharpe.
Likewise, Dr.
Vaishya.
I think I just found my number two.
Ah.
He's lovely, I'm sure.
He's devoted his life to those in need.
And he quoted Emerson.
Now, if that's not sign I'm not sure how things are in America, but we don't see many female hospital directors in our corner of the world.
Go on.
Well, you've been given the rare opportunity to really start changing the face of the NHS.
A female deputy could pay dividends for generations to come.
Otherwise, who's gonna train the next you? Right.
I hadn't thought of it that way.
Well, hiring a woman could be a shot across the bow, but it's your decision, of course.
Hmm.
Well, that is a nasty bump.
Yeah, I could have told you that.
Don't make you a doctor, does it, mate? Ow! Ow.
Sorry.
Uh, this is osteoarthritis.
- That doesn't sound good.
- Well, it's not that bad.
I can get a needle, drain this fluid, and the swelling should go down and you should feel better pretty immediately.
You sure you're actually a doctor? Actually, I, uh, used to run America's oldest public hospital.
Ha ha ha ha! Yeah, sure you did.
Yeah.
So, uh, you stay here, and, uh, I'm gonna grab some medical supplies.
We'll be right back.
Hey, Priscilla.
Hi there.
I was out getting some snacks for my beloved and I thought you might like one.
Oh, what a prince.
Give it here.
I'll give it to her straight away.
You know what? I was actually thinking I might give it to her myself.
- Sure.
Yeah, of course.
- Is that okay? Awesome.
It's nice to see you.
- You too.
- You look great.
Thank you.
On call pediatric nurse, station 5.
On call pediatric nurse, station 5.
What the hell happened to me? - You had a heart attack.
- Full on? And then some.
A stress-induced cardiomyopathy, which has left you with an aortic aneurysm.
Tch.
Are you kidding? My dad runs marathons every year.
My grandpa's still kicking at 93.
And, well, you you've got an aneurysm that could blow at any minute.
Look, cardiology's gonna come down here for a consult, but I'm pretty sure they're gonna recommend open heart surgery.
I-I don't get it.
I take good care of myself.
I drink smoothies every morning with real kale.
I go on hour-long walks.
I eat good.
Well, how long you been a Knicks fan? I never wasn't one.
Why? Okay.
Well, according to this ultrasound, you got the heart of an 80-year-old.
That's stress, adrenaline, fluctuating heart rate based on who wins and who loses.
What are you trying to say, Doc? Nico, the Knicks are literally killing you.
Willow, thanks for coming.
Can I get you anything? Yeah, less cancer would be great.
That's what all we're all hoping for.
Now, you have lost a few pounds since your appointment a few weeks ago.
My high school self would be jumping for joy.
How's your appetite? Nothing looks good or smells good.
Just talking about my appetite is making me feel sick.
So let's just not, okay? Willow, many patients who are in remission and have a recurrence feel angry, anxious.
But this regimen Etoposide, cisplatin, cytarabine Is still your best shot.
But I am concerned about the side effects.
Yeah, me too.
But I have an idea how to fix them.
That's wonderful.
I wanna stop all the treatment.
I give up.
No, wait.
Don't go in my head.
Get out, get out.
Hey, lady, you can't be here.
This is a place of business.
Hey, you think I don't know what you want? Ha ha ha ha! I know.
You're trying to hide in the internet, but I get a special text when you're trying to find me.
Yep.
Yep.
Sure.
Sure.
All right.
Move it along.
Move it along.
Don't you touch me.
Get away from me.
Ma'am, I'm gonna repeat this, okay? You need to move now.
- Get away from me! - Okay.
You know what? You were warned.
You're moving now.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Don't fight me.
There you go.
Okay? Watch out for all these cops here! As exciting as it looks in the movies? - Yeah.
- You can't just stand there! So, um, I think I know why you're so tired all the time.
What are you talking about? Aya, I believe you are suffering from PTSD.
I'll admit, I was so excited to learn that you were also at Cambridge.
I can't believe I just missed you.
I know.
And reestablishing our ties with the university is gonna be such a coup for Hampstead.
And having you as a mentor would be life-altering.
Well, it was such a pleasure to meet you, Dr.
Stewart.
- I'll be in touch.
- Sure.
Thank you.
- Can you sign these? - Yeah, of course.
I think I just found my number two.
Very exciting.
A powerful woman.
Just thinking about Hampstead's Muslim population.
- Okay.
- It's big and growing.
Why not have more clinic staff that looks like our patients? Well, I come from a Muslim background myself.
You do? You never mentioned it on television.
- Well, I meant my father was.
- That's okay.
It's not front and center for you.
But for many of our patients, it is.
And statistically, being treated by physicians who look like you and understands where you're coming from, leads to better outcomes.
Yes.
That's absolutely true.
I know you'll make the right decision.
You always do.
You done yet? Can I look now? Uh not just yet.
I am repositioning so I can draw the fluid out.
I don't wanna know the details, man.
- Right.
- Needles.
Of course.
So how long have you been driving a cab? Oh, since I was 18, I was one of the knowledge boys.
Memorized the blue book till I knew this city inside out.
Hmm.
Always knew this is where I wanted to be Behind a wheel.
Never wanted to do anything else.
- Do you believe that? - Hmm.
I cannot imagine not being able to drive anymore.
I know the feeling.
All right.
Let's not, uh, stop the meter just yet.
Oh, King Ada! Mate, that needle really hurts.
No, no, that's not the needle.
That's something else.
Oh, easy, tiger.
Easy.
Have you been doing a lot of work on your knees, sanding floors and things like that? - Lino.
- Lino? Linoleum? Yeah.
Just done my daughter's flat.
How do you know? I think the lino work has created a new fusion here just above the kneecap.
Well, I'm glad I kept that appointment for next month.
No need to wait a month.
I can fix it right now.
Let's see your hand.
Just put some pressure right here and I'll be back.
I'm gonna grab one more thing.
Hey there.
The only thing that woman loves more than surprises is biscuits.
Honestly, you and Dr.
Sharpe are adorable.
- Off you go.
- Okay.
Nico, I got great news.
- K.
D.
blew out his knee? - No, I got you a spot.
The OR miraculously carved out a spot for your heart surgery.
So we're good to go.
I gotta push it a day.
My guy's got a game.
It's a can't miss.
Okay, Nico, your surgery is the can't miss.
Can I wear my lucky jersey? No.
They're gonna cut open your chest.
Then no can do.
My guys need me, Dr.
Bloom.
Nico, listen to me, okay? You're gonna die.
How are the Knicks losing again more important than your life? They are my life.
Look, I don't have a girlfriend.
I don't have a job I love.
I don't have a lot.
But these games, the past games, the draft, the die-hards like me They're my everything.
I think I have a solution and I hate it.
Floyd? You're awake.
And you're in my kitchen.
Where's Claude? Well, he had a few interviews he couldn't postpone, so he asked me to look after you.
Tag teaming? Mm I prefer not to call it that.
You hungry? Yes.
I'm starving.
I'm craving those pierogies on the Lower East side.
Yeah.
But soup works for now.
Okay.
I'll make you some.
Going through pictures? You guys look so young.
We were.
And happy.
We were.
It's the hospital.
- Oh, go.
Go, go, go.
- I'll be fine by myself.
Yeah? Thank you for waiting.
I would eventually like to go home.
I wanna propose an experimental surgery.
It's shown promise in several trials, and I can apply for compassionate use.
It is not without risk, but we can get the cancer out in one go.
Am I supposed to light up at this news? Let me send you home with some information about the trials.
Okay? Take your time.
Think about it.
If you have any questions, I am here.
I don't need to think about it.
The answer's no.
It's a big decision, Willow.
We can talk about this tomorrow.
I don't wanna talk to you.
I wanna talk to Dr.
Sharpe.
I am sorry, Willow.
I know that these transitions can Transitions? This is my life.
I don't know you, and I don't trust you.
Can I go now? I'm not remembering some, like, trauma.
No.
People with PTSD aren't remembering trauma.
They're re-experiencing it.
They're responding to stimulus from an event from the past, not from what's happening right in front of them.
Today on the streets with that homeless woman, you were responding to something that wasn't there.
What I was responding to was a screaming nut case in front of me.
Well, why'd you raise your voice? Because she was screaming.
Yeah.
At the visions in her head not at you.
She barely even looked at you.
And then you and then you grabbed her.
You went straight to physical force with a person who wasn't displaying any violence, who may not have even been aware you were there.
Why? You know how many reprimands I've gotten for undue force? Zero.
So you saying I'm out here being cruel? I didn't say cruel.
Or subconsciously freaking out or whatever.
You're wrong.
I do what I was trained to do.
What you saw that wasn't trauma.
That wasn't even intense.
That was a normal day.
You're sweating a lot for someone who just went through normal.
How long you had the towel? Columbo with the towel over here.
How about cold ones? How many cold ones you drink on the couch? Oh my God.
You're not drinking to relax.
You're drinking to suppress.
Tell me I'm wrong.
Leave it alone.
I can't.
Whatever it is that you are suppressing has made you aggressive.
And that means we're not just talking about your marriage.
In your line of work, people could get killed.
10-13 at 48th and 9th.
Suspect possibly armed and dangerous.
2-7 Adam, 10-4.
En route.
Crime in progress.
You wanna see me at work? Get in.
When I saw way too many people that looked like my parents, cousins and aunties coming through the hospital doors with chronic illnesses too late for us to treat, I knew I needed to change that.
So I began Healthy Habibi.
It's part pop-up clinic, part lively street team.
We've been able to create some successful preventative medicine initiatives all around Hampstead.
Oh my God.
You're fantastic.
I'm sorry.
Is that a bad thing? No, no, of course it's not.
It's just I have, um I have a tough and impossible and debilitating decision to make, and you are so incredible.
You've just made it even harder.
Honestly, I'm at a complete loss.
I shouldn't even be burdening you with any of this but Yep.
Sorry to bother, ma'am, but I caught this one trying to steal medical supplies.
Hey, babe.
Hey, thanks for coming out on your day off.
Well, I spent the day trying and failing to take care of my pregnant girlfriend at the behest of her husband in their house.
You know, I marvel at how quickly your life became this fascinating.
Know what? I'm nowhere in there.
But why should I be? I mean, it's not like they're gonna add a picture of me to the bookshelf, especially when I'm making everything more complicated.
All right.
You signed up for this.
Yeah? Yeah.
Then quit being so passive.
I mean, show her you care.
You gotta get in the game, make some plays.
Not for Baptiste, but for you.
It's the only way you're gonna stay in this.
- Uh, what-what do you - What the hell is this? You think you got a secret? If anybody finds out about this, I am gonna kill you with my bare hands.
Okay.
I'd like to press charges for kidnapping.
Okay.
I'll let Dr.
Wilder know.
You know where she's taking me? I do, and, uh, I have to say I'm a little surprised.
Willow, this is Dr.
Mia Castries.
She's the chair of Holistic Medicine.
Hi, Willow.
It's nice to meet you.
Where are the wind chimes? My bamboo chimes are at home, but I appreciate the humor.
I'm here all week.
Maybe.
I need to give you a reason to trust me.
I don't know Dr.
Castries, but she comes highly recommended.
I don't trust Dr.
Castries because I don't give away my trust easily.
Does that sound familiar? But I am willing to put all that aside if she can help you.
Will you let her try? Can I take your hand? Okay.
This is called acupressure.
It's not invasive.
It's what we call good touch.
This is pressure point P6.
Its meridian pathway travels up your arm into your chest, into your upper abdomen.
It's okay if it's a little bit achy, but it shouldn't be painful.
It's not.
Okay.
So I'm gonna take your other hand, and I need you to do one thing for me.
Can you say, "I accept healing touch.
" With a straight face? Energetically speaking, that is not required.
I accept healing touch.
I accept healing touch.
I accept healing touch.
I accept.
What are you feeling? Extremely self-conscious.
Anything else? Hunger.
- Get the hell outta here.
- Stay in the car.
Sir, get back inside.
He's costing me customers, breaking everything.
Sir, inside now.
Get away from me! Hey, hey, anyone get hurt? Guy's a live wire.
- Sir.
Sir.
Look at me.
- Back off! I don't want any more trouble outta you.
You hear me? I'm not telling you again.
You're gonna move your ass down the street.
You want us to take you in? Move it along.
In three, two Hey, don't even think about it.
Hands where I can see 'em! Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Dr.
Frome, get back in the car.
- Get away from me, man! - What the hell you doing? - Get back in the car.
- I will.
I will.
One sec, one second.
I just wanna talk to our friend here.
Leave me alone! All of you! You and you and you.
Can we please have him carted off? Please, please, please.
I just wanna talk.
Can we do that for a sec? That's all I wanna do.
I'm Iggy, by the way.
It's nice to meet you.
What's your name again? Erman.
Erman.
It's a solid name.
Love that name.
So what Erman and I can agree on here is that when you're having a day like today, raising your voice is kind like the worst thing we can do, right? No one likes to raised voices, do they, Erman? No.
- No.
- No.
But you do you do like it here, right? I mean, you chose this spot for a particular reason.
I'm assuming it wasn't the bistro lighting.
It's cold.
The heat lamps.
Yeah.
It's cold out here, huh? - Yeah.
- What about a, uh, hot coffee? Erman, you want you want a hot cup of joe? Can I get you that? Can we make that happen? Can we get a hot cup of coffee? And now you want me to give you coffee? I'll cover it.
I'll cover it.
Thank you.
It's on me.
Okay, Erman? - Things are confusing.
- Yeah.
I bet.
It's scary.
Hey, Erman.
There's a church up the block with a heater in the back.
Did you know that? - You gotta push me away? - No, no, no, no.
Not pushing.
Just helping, just helping.
This ain't yours, and it ain't his.
- No, of course not.
- It's just a lot quieter there.
Okay? And between you and me, the coffee at the church is better than the stuff they serve here, but that's our little secret, all right? Thank you.
Here you go.
But, you know, things are gonna get better.
Okay? I promise you.
Come on, let's walk.
Let 'em through.
Hey.
Hey.
- Do you mind? - No.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Good old St.
Joe's.
They allow the unhoused to hang out out back.
I wish I could say Erman's situation was okay, but at least he's not in danger, you know? - That's good.
- Mm-hmm.
Yeah, it is.
Last year, um I had a terrible call.
Kid getting beaten.
We're supposed to compartmentalize.
Anyway, another call comes in.
Garden-variety street crazy causing a scene.
I go to move her, but when I touch her, she freaks out.
She fights back.
She's scared.
And I'm doing this hold we learn.
It's what we're supposed to do to minimize the danger.
But this hold they teach us it's so easy to just crack their shoulder.
And I did.
She starts screaming.
It was so messed up, 'cause I didn't feel sorry for her or regret or anything like a decent human being.
I fractured her shoulder in three places, and all I felt was - Angry.
- Yeah.
You know, people with PTSD, they often freeze out the ones they love.
It's like with you and your wife you pull back because you're afraid if you don't, she's gonna see that you're bad person.
But that's not the truth.
You're not a bad person.
You said it yourself.
You're doing your job.
You're doing what you're supposed to do.
But officers are not equipped to handle a mentally unstable person who isn't committing a crime.
That's not your job.
That's my job.
That's a social worker's job.
What about the next time? Well, I teach doctors and nurses how to deescalate psychosis all the time.
I'd be more than happy to teach you.
Everything I do has to be sanctioned, approved by the committee, union reps, training.
There's no going rogue even if it helps.
Well, then maybe I'll just have to make it official.
Teach the whole NYPD? Heck yeah.
Why not? That's crazy.
Okay.
But we don't use that word anymore.
Bananas.
I will accept bananas.
- All right.
- All right? That's bananas.
How's that feel? It's a world of difference.
You are legitimate then, eh? On my better days.
Well, I'll wager this is one of them.
- Thanks, Doc.
- Yeah.
Hey, you know, I didn't even get your first name.
- Sid.
- Max.
Be good.
It's a bit smaller than New Amsterdam, but at least it's outdoors.
No one would hire me.
And I just wanted to feel useful.
I thought you said that the interviews were going well.
Yeah, I did say that, but I was lying to you.
I was either overqualified or underqualified or just the right qualified with the wrong references.
Oh, you'll find the right spot.
I know you will.
That makes one of us.
How's your day? It's not much better.
- No? - No.
- Interviews no good? - Quite the opposite.
The candidates are remarkable, but they're just somehow not quite enough.
Every community needs representation, and hiring one means eliminating the other.
So it looks like whoever I hire, I'm gonna be letting down some part of this place.
- Hmm.
- Some part of myself.
Shame you can't just hire another you.
Oh wait.
That's brilliant.
- What? - Thank you.
Of course, glad I could help? Transport team to unit 7 please.
Transport team to unit 7.
Dr.
Bloom? Yeah, I'm right here.
Yeah.
How did it go? Okay.
So there were some complications with your procedure, but Dr.
Reynolds and his team I meant the game.
Did we win? - Nico - Just lay it on me, Doc.
They got slaughtered.
Ah.
Total blowout.
And you wore the jersey.
Nico, I just told you that you almost died and you're asking me about a jersey.
Why? Because I'm a Knicks fan.
Because you're an addict.
What? The very definition of addiction is the compulsive engagement in rewarding stimuli despite adverse consequences.
Tell me, which part doesn't apply to you? Your body is screaming at you that your engagement with the Knicks isn't healthy and you're just not listening.
I did wear the jersey, okay? But if I'm being honest, I kind of wish I hadn't.
- I need more calm in my life.
- Yeah.
I'll say.
- Less anticipation of failure.
- Exactly.
No more obsessing over the Knicks.
Good.
Well, because baseball's starting up spring training.
Nico, come on.
Let's go, Mets.
Let's go, Mets.
- You best be kidding.
- I'm not kidding.
I just heard we got Max Scherzer.
I think we'll make playoffs this year.
You did wonders for Willow today.
Thank you.
And if we continue our sessions together, I can help manage her pain and her nausea as well.
But if you want to do more and help more people, we have a way to do that.
But Veronica can't know.
Are you in? Are you asking the holistic doctor if she'll say yes to something mysterious and unusual? Welcome to the resistance.
Hmm.
What is this? Pierogi Platter from First Avenue Deli.
Flowers from Sherene's Garden.
Who sent all this? Hey Floyd.
How'd it go? All good.
Yeah.
Hey listen, when you get home and Lyn thanks you for everything you got her, just say you're welcome.
Okay.
But wait, I didn't get her anything.
You have a beautiful home, Claude, a beautiful life.
Just say you're welcome.
Yeah? Spit it out, Zamaya.
I'm here about a theoretical situation.
I'm listening.
What if a few friends of another friend were worried about that friend throwing their future away? But the friends that are worried about the other friend are also worried about their futures due to certain retribution? Is she safe? Please.
Is she okay? As I met with you, Narin, I thought this person really has something special to offer our community.
And when I met with you, Rahul, I felt the same thing.
And again, with you, Charmaine.
This hospital's second in command who might one day be its medical director has to represent our multidimensional community.
So Charmaine, I'm hiring you.
Thank you.
And Narin, I'm hiring you.
Oh, that's wonderful.
- And Rahul you're hired too.
- Thank God.
- You're all hired.
- Now, let's get to work.
Shall we? Oi, oi.
Maxie.
- Hey.
- All right? - Yeah.
- So I hope you don't mind, but, uh, I've told a few mates about you.
- Y-you have? - Yeah, I know it's late, but all these fellas have got appointments months away and they all need to keep working.
The thing is, we don't know why you're doing this, but we don't care.
And they don't mind my little clinic in the alley.
Well, you think they need somewhere posh? They just need help.
That I can do.
- So this is Ken.
- Hey.
Nice to meet you.
- Matthew.
- Hey, pleasure.
- Eric.
- Nice to meet you.
- Dennis.
- How are you? - Yeah, we got time for this? - Yeah, sure.
All right, sweet.
