Saving Hope (2012) s05e05 Episode Script
Tested and Tried
1 Thank you.
And keep the change.
- Dr.
Harris.
- Hey! Summer, thanks for bringing him in.
- Oh, hey, buddy! - Whoop.
Okay, now.
Here's the diapers and bunky.
Thank you.
Now, you're sure Dr.
Reid's okay with this.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I wouldn't worry about that.
'Cause, you know, after I got a little carried away at the party, she's only given me a second chance because Luke cries nonstop with anyone else.
Well, why don't you, um, take the rest of the day off? Don't screw me on this, Dr.
Harris.
Now, don't forget, Luke gets his morning snack You got it, you got it.
Okay.
Yep, bye! Ring, ring! What?! Who's who's on the phone? Hello? I'm sorry, I-I can't hear you.
I got a banana in my ear.
- I can't stop scratching.
- Okay, you know what? I'll get you an ointment to take away the scabby feeling, okay? I'll be back in a sec, okay? Try not to scratch.
Okay.
Mrs.
Kilbride, your son is in what we call chronic rejection.
He'll need a new liver as soon as possible.
He was so much better after his transplant.
- What's happened? - His liver's lost function.
We're unable to suppress the antibodies he's producing.
Which is why we're working so hard to find him a new one.
And given Colin's weakened immune system, the best match would be part of a liver from a living donor.
But you tested us all me, his aunts, his uncles.
No one's a match.
What about his father? I reached out to him.
No luck.
So he doesn't know that his son's seriously ill? Um, well, I can't talk to him.
Not directly.
Why not? He has a police handler.
[sighs.]
Danny was a biker.
An enforcer with the J.
M.
C.
And he cut a deal with the police, turned in his brothers, and he's been in witness protection ever since.
How long? Coming up six years.
Okay, then we go back to searching for an unrelated donor.
Someone who is an exact blood type and whose liver function assessment works for Colin.
Those are terrible odds, aren't they? It's what we've got right now.
So we'll keep his fluid and electrolyte balance stable and cross our fingers.
Okay.
Stat geek, hatchet man.
Hooved spawn of Satan.
He's just trying to live up to his billing.
Yeah, by slashing my ER budget and turning ambulances away.
He was named one of the most influential business minds under 35.
Doesn't hurt that his uncle is head of the Hospital Association.
Influential and connected.
Great.
Do me a favor and promise me you'll wipe the floor with this guy.
Dr.
Bell, you know how many hospitals there are in this city? - 24.
- 23, actually.
St.
Nathaniel is merging with Scarborough Regional at the end of the month.
Have a seat.
I hadn't heard.
Of those 23, we're one of four major trauma centers and one of five transplant hubs.
Transplant and Trauma put Hope Zion on the map.
Yeah.
You've heard of Easter Island, Dr.
Bell? Of course.
It used to be on the map, too.
Now, the theory goes it was a thriving civilization quite advanced for its time.
But their way of life wasn't sustainable.
They used up their resources and poof.
All that's left now are some you know, the big heads.
So I'm one of the big heads in this scenario, is that it? You've done some great work here, Dawn.
No one questions that.
But the medical landscape has changed.
- So, efficiencies? - Rebranding.
And you will be personally affected.
Cardiac transplants have to go first, Trauma will be next in line.
Thomas, there has to be another way.
I've looked at other scenarios this is the best one.
I'll need you to transfer your pre-op patients to other hospitals.
We'll make sure they're placed in the best possible care.
Whoa, whoa hey! What do you think you're doing with the good gloves? My patient has scabies.
I'm using the good ones.
No.
Okay, you can use one of those gloves.
Because you want me to get scabies? Okay, everyone, gather around! Huddle up, come here.
Quickly, let's go.
[sighs.]
Now, listen, this is for your ears only.
Okay, I have it on very good authority He means his girlfriend.
That the new baby-faced assassin is planning on more cuts, and he's going to be in our ER today assessing us.
But we already took a major haircut.
Why are you looking at me like that? I-I'm not.
[clears throat.]
Super Cuts.
Man, don't talk to me about cuts.
I've been in these scrubs for three days.
Yeah, cuts don't affect the laundry.
Look, we need a good day.
Okay, guys, we need a perfect day.
We just need to prove to this pencil-pushing C-3PO-looking man-boy that we're the best damn ER in the country, got it? [As C-3PO.]
Great idea, Master Luke.
Back when I was in the seminary, I, uh, used to get really tired of that question, "Why would God do this?" - Makes you wonder.
- Yeah.
So you think we're really gonna find a match for this little guy? I don't know.
But it doesn't help anyone to give up.
Excuse me, are you Colin Kilbride's doctor? I am, yes.
Oh! [grunting.]
- Don't scream, okay? - Okay.
I don't want to hurt you.
My name is Danny Kilbride.
I'm here to help my son.
How is Colin? I-I can take you to him.
No.
I want to help him.
But this has to stay off the record, okay? I might be compromised already.
What do you mean? Joanie contacted my handler, uh, a few weeks ago.
And that might be enough for them to trace her number.
Okay, so you're saying So what I'm saying is that it is very likely that somebody is following her, somebody that wants to kill me.
Okay.
But you do understand that once we start in on this, there's there's no turning back.
Well, I'm here, aren't I? Do you know your blood type? No, ma'am.
Well, let's start there.
And if you're a match we will figure out the rest somehow.
Now, I need to get a blood draw kit.
- All right? - Yeah.
Okay.
Just wait here.
Okay, you may want to look away for this part.
Oh, no, I'm good.
So we're gonna do a CBC and check your electrolytes, make sure your body is healthy enough.
To go ahead and poison it.
I know.
Crazy, right? - Mm-hmm.
- Take a deep breath.
Oh, I'm not gonna pass out on you.
You know how I made money as a teenager? Mopping up after cattle births.
Oh, my God, that's you're joking.
Come on, Dr.
Lin, I'm not that hardcore.
I actually worked at Zehrs.
Oh.
Okay.
That's it.
You okay? Mm-hmm.
Want me to get someone to walk you to Chemo? [sighs.]
I should be good.
Although after my last chemo treatment, I threw up all over my Uber.
Is Violet coming to get you? Nope.
She left.
Actually, I kicked her out.
So I guess she left.
It was pretty messy.
I'm sorry.
She was halfway out the door, anyways.
Her loss, right? That's the spirit.
Maybe there's a little country optimism in you yet.
[chuckles.]
I'll see you up there.
See you up there.
I look forward to seeing your team rise to the challenge of a more fiscally responsible discipline.
Yes.
I look forward as well, Thomas.
I wish Dr.
Bell shared your enthusiasm, Zachary.
Oh, she's just saving her pep for the OR.
- Incoming! - Joe Falstaff, 29 years old.
He fell four stories installing windows at a downtown condo.
Okay, let's stop here.
Hi, Joe, my name is Dr.
Miller.
Can you hear me? Can you open your eyes? What do we got? Construction worker fell four stories.
Billy? Looks like massive internal hemorrhaging.
It's not just blood.
There's cranial content here skull is mush.
Okay.
Pupils are fixed and dilated.
Jackson? Nothing.
Okay, there's no brain function.
Let's call in Neuro just to confirm.
Chart says he's a donor.
Okay, let's get him on a vent.
Thanks, guys.
- Excuse me, sir.
- Hmm.
Mmm, yeah, hi.
Wow, that was quick.
I'm joking.
I've been waiting for hours.
Okay, well, someone will be with you shortly, but in the meantime, you can't smoke that in here.
Mmm.
It's okay because it's a vape, so I don't care if it's holy water.
You can't smoke that mouth fedora in my ER, you got it? If you take another drag off that, I'm gonna call security.
Very mature.
- Hey, doc.
- Yep.
Where are the elevators at? It's down the hall there.
[glass shatters, woman screams.]
[screams.]
- My mouth! My mouth! - Don't touch your face! Okay, oh, no, no, don't touch it, don't touch.
Nurse, uh, can I get a nurse? We need a nurse! Uh You'll be just fine.
[moans.]
Sekara, you're with me today.
Uh, I was actually just about to report to the ER.
Change of plans.
Three of these are in end-stage heart failure.
Most of them are on a bridge to transplant.
Well, I'm honored you asked me to help.
Oh, we're not helping.
We're starting the process of transferring them out of here.
[P.
A.
beeps, indistinct announcement.]
Dr.
Bell, is it Wednesday already? What happens Wednesday? Sally is the leader of our book club.
Well, three is hardly a club.
Dr.
Bell blackmailed her boyfriend into hearing me go on about books.
- You're welcome to join us, Doctor - Sekara.
What are you reading? "War and Peace.
" Still.
[Chuckles.]
[Monitor beeps.]
"We can only know that we know nothing," "and that's the highest degree of human wisdom.
" Very good.
I like a well-read man.
So, Sally, I need to assess that you are well enough to travel.
Travel where? We're gonna be transferring you to Mississauga Memorial.
They have a wonderful transplant program there.
Dr.
Bradley is a masterful surgeon.
But I want to stay here.
We understand that, but the No, I just got settled.
M-My books are here, you're here.
You've been my surgeon for six years.
I understand that this must come as a shock.
You told me after that first surgery that we would see this through together.
My hands are tied, Sally.
I am so sorry.
Something on your mind, Dr.
Reid? Oh, just one of those days.
Well, do you feel like sharing? I would, but then I'd have to kill you.
So - I'm only half joking.
- Right.
Well, whatever it is, I'd like to help.
Okay.
Um Meet me in the storage closet by the lab in 10 minutes? - Storage closet? - Yeah, just trust me, okay? - Okay.
- Sorry to interrupt.
You're not interrupting.
- 10 minutes.
- Yeah.
- What do you need? - Uh, your signature, actually.
What am I signing? It's a test run for Luke.
I thought we talked about daycare and decided a stay-at-home nanny was best for Luke.
Yeah, we did, but, uh, I don't get to see him anymore, Alex.
Okay.
Uh, our hours are insane.
How are we gonna make daycare hours work? We'll make it work.
Shahir and Jonathan already agreed to help with off-hour transitions.
So you told them about this before talking to me? [cellphone buzzes.]
[sighs.]
It's the daycare.
They say that Luke won't stop crying.
They're supposed to call me.
So you already put him in daycare.
[sighs.]
It's a one-day trial, Alex.
Look he's my son, okay.
I should be able to see him whenever I want, but I can't do that when he's at the condo because I don't live there anymore.
Well, I'm gonna call Summer and get her to come back here.
- Whatever.
- You went behind my back.
Maybe it's 'cause I don't want to talk to you these days, Alex.
Oh, so what, you're just gonna lie to me? - I didn't lie to you.
- Yeah, you did.
It's me.
I hate surprises.
- Wait, wait, wait! - I told you no one else can know.
Okay, okay, listen, he's a vascular surgeon.
He is your son's vascular surgeon.
Please just, he he needs to be here, too.
Let him go.
Let him go.
Please? We cool? That depends, brother.
That all depends on you.
All right.
We have good news.
You and your son are a match.
Blood type and HLA, too.
That means that part of your liver is gonna save his life.
My conditions, though.
Yeah? This stays completely anonymous.
There's a lot of people that want to see me dead.
You serious? I'm not gonna put my family at risk again.
We'll label you a John Doe and book an OR.
No.
No, no.
OR that's with all those windows.
That's a lot of people.
That's not gonna work.
It's not gonna work.
Okay, wait.
Okay, wait, wait! There has to be an alternative.
To operating in an operating room? Yeah.
What what about the skills lab? What about it? Well, it it could double as an OR in an emergency situation.
This is not an emergency, Doc.
It could become one real quick.
You mentioned that, yeah.
We'll put John Doe on the chart, limit the staff, get Dawn to sign off on it, and prep the skills lab.
What do you say, Dr.
Palmer, want to save a life together? [Monitor beeping rhythmically.]
It's okay, baby.
He's getting worse by the hour.
Please tell me you have good news.
We do.
We got lucky, Joan.
A donor just came in.
Took us a while to run the tests, but he's a perfect match for Colin.
Really? Really.
Um Who's the donor? I want to thank them.
I-I need to thank them.
Well, all donors are anonymous.
I'll ask him if he wants to see you, but there are no guarantees.
Him? - Mrs.
Kilbride - Wait.
So you're telling me that in the last hour, you've managed to find someone who's a perfect match for Colin? [clears throat.]
[voice breaking.]
It's him, isn't it? It's Danny.
He came back.
[sniffles.]
He came back for us.
You obviously still care about him.
Of course I do.
Why else would I hate him so much for leaving? The thing is we gotta keep this under wraps, okay? Danny is nervous enough as it is.
If he finds out that anyone else knows he's here he could take off.
And it would be a serious setback for Colin.
Whatever you have to do.
All right.
But all he's talked about for years is seeing his dad again.
So you tell Danny that he'll talk to his son, or so help me, God, I'll kill him myself.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I heard about your transplant patients.
I'm so sorry.
You had a brain-dead potential donor - come in this morning, right? - Yep.
- Type AB-positive? - Yep.
On a vent, waiting for a bus to go to General.
I think he could be waiting a while.
I canceled it.
But our new CEO clearly expressed You're gonna do the transplant anyway? You should have seen Sally's face, Zach.
I just I couldn't do it.
We do need to finish "War and Peace.
" Damn right.
Do you think you could have a few of your residents bring him up to the OR? Damn right.
"Art is to console those who are broken by life.
" - Kanye West? - Van Gogh, actually.
Which one of them do you think was crazier? That is a toss-up.
I'm gonna get you some water for those anti-nauseants.
Oh, no, that's okay.
[Coughing.]
I saw that on a movie once, and I really wanted to try it.
It's a little harder than it looks.
- Yeah.
- [chuckles.]
I tried to get you a room on the ward, but day patients are pretty low on the totem pole.
Well, who knows, maybe this time, the pills will work and I won't spew all over some stranger's sedan.
It's okay to be scared, Bree.
I thought being alone would be better than Violet staying out of pity.
But well, it turns out I was wrong.
You're not alone.
How's it going? You guys almost ready? Getting there.
It would be a lot faster if we had an actual OR.
She's not wrong.
Why are we prepping in here when OR 5 is free? Well, the new CEO wants to test it out.
Might be another revenue stream.
Maybe he should be the one sterilizing everything by hand.
Yeah.
I'll let him know you said that.
Wayne, come on, man.
Let's prove to everyone that anesthesiologists aren't as lame as everyone thinks.
Spread your wings, brother.
I'll get O'Toole to cover your next two shifts.
Flap.
Flap.
My man.
You don't have to be scared.
I'm gonna be sitting right outside.
They're gonna take such good care of you.
Okay, baby? Hi.
[sighs.]
Hi.
Say hello to your boy, Danny.
Hello, little man.
Do you remember me? Are you feeling okay? You look like crap, so [chuckles.]
The doctor is gonna fix you up, though.
With some help from daddy's liver.
Yeah.
Whatever's mine is yours.
Just make sure he gets the part that didn't absorb all the tequila shots.
I'll see what I can do.
Same old Joanie.
You haven't changed much yourself.
We should get you both prepped and ready.
Boom.
Take care, son.
You too.
[Chuckles.]
Dad? Yeah? Will you be here when I wake up? Yep.
Yes, I will.
So we'll prep Colin while we harvest the other liver, and when it's ready, Colin's procedure will start.
You really think this will work? I do.
Dr.
Bell, what do you think you're doing? Putting the patient's scans up in preparation for her transplant.
After I ordered her transferred to another hospital? Mrs.
Ambrose's health is failing.
It's my call for my patient.
Her transfer has already been signed.
If we operate on her, do you have any idea of the liability? Nothing's gonna go wrong.
Look, I'm sure she's a pet patient, but she is one patient.
You're trying to save her, I'm trying to save this hospital.
You need to call this off and get an ambulance here right now.
You know, I'll, uh, make it easy and do it for you.
Stop.
My patient is getting a new heart today, right here.
I am seeing this through.
Then I expect your resignation as Chief of Surgery by tomorrow morning.
Woman: Clear for takeoff, Dr.
Bell.
You okay? Yeah, I just need a moment.
[breathes deeply.]
[knock on door.]
Dr.
Bell? We were wondering if we could assist.
Do you both understand the risks that you're taking? Yes, we do.
Scrub up.
Alex: Almost through the left lateral segment.
What do you think about the vasculature? These two hepatic arteries are giving me some doubts.
Nothing we can't handle, right? It's mostly the adult artery matching up with Colin that I'm concerned with.
Well, if it's too big, you just punch a hole in it.
You a you calling me skinny? No.
And I thought Danny here was paranoid.
Okay, we will do a modified donor graft unless you think I can't handle it.
No.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am so sorry about the wait time.
We're doing the best we can.
We'll be with you shortly.
We're out of Albuterol, Naloxone, and tongue depressors.
So call Don Valley, see if we can mooch, and tell him we're good for it.
Yeah, we're not good for it.
Jackson, I'm having a day that rivals the Egyptian plagues.
Just do me a favor, call, and lie, okay? [dogs barking.]
Oh, no.
Sorry, ma'am.
No no dogs allowed in here.
No flea bags! Out! Go, bad dog! I'm sorry, but it's just my head.
I really don't feel so good.
Oh.
No, no, wait! [barking intensifies.]
Oh! Pestilence! See, this is Mrs.
Gleiberman's wrist.
She broke that while, um, roller-blading.
I didn't even know people still did that.
And that is Mr.
Barnham's elbow.
He shattered that stage-diving at the Mod Club, I think, when nobody caught him.
Hmm.
You can see me? Mm-hmm.
Can he? I sincerely hope not.
Summer! Thank you for coming back.
Uh-huh.
You said you wouldn't screw me, but your wife just almost fired me again.
Well, she's not my wife.
- What's up? - That's a nice hat.
I know, right? Okay, Lukey, time to go.
Bye-bye.
Bye, buddy.
Don't let him out of your life.
It's true what they say.
You don't know what you've got until it's gone.
You're still here? Who's that? I recognize him from somewhere.
Follow him, go.
What? Please, just do it.
Uh Eight, please.
Ask him what he's doing here.
So, you visiting someone or Yeah.
Ask who.
Well, whoever it is, I hope they're doing okay.
My mom, yeah.
She's she's all right.
[scoffs.]
Ask the time.
Oh, damn it.
You, uh you got the proper time? Almost 2:00.
[elevator dings.]
Thanks.
So, what the hell was that all about? Did you see that tattoo? Yeah.
But having a lousy tattoo isn't a crime.
He's here to kill me, man.
You've gotta protect me.
I can't do anything.
I'm in surgery.
Who's your doctor? Reid Alex Reid.
Alex, can I talk to you for a second? Kind of in the middle of a transplant here.
Listen, your patient's in danger.
Someone's trying to kill him.
We got it covered.
No, you don't, actually.
The minute you're done, you need to move the patient and hide him somewhere safe.
Put him Gerontology.
They have vents and the staff to monitor him.
I'll have them clear a room.
I'm sorry, but what the hell was that? Welcome to my world.
Ice.
Call OR 5, tell them to prep Colin, we're on our way.
So, Dr.
Bell, just out of curiosity's sake, how are you planning on explaining this to the board? I'm not.
Figured I'd let Sally do that for me.
Three, two one.
"Nothing is so necessary for a young man" "as the company of intelligent women.
" "War and Peace.
" It's a gold mine.
Amen to that one.
Tolstoy must have had a good mother.
[chuckles.]
[alarms ringing.]
- What's happening? - I don't know.
Pressure's in free-fall and she's bucking the vent.
Hypertension and pulmonary vasoconstriction.
- Hyper-rejection.
- It can't be.
Her antibody screen was clean.
Okay, we need to heparinize her again and get her back on pump or she has no chance at transplant.
Get those lines ready.
[rapid beeping.]
Nobody but hospital staff with badges comes into the room, and no visitors of any kind.
- Got it.
- All right.
- You sure this threat's legit? - Well [sighs.]
Better safe than sorry.
How do you know all this? Just page me if anything changes.
Bree.
How are you feeling? Oh, I'll let you know when the room stops spinning.
I'll see you tomorrow, Dr.
Lin.
Uh, actually, Bree, I found you a room for tonight.
Oh, seriously? It's really close by, you can stay there for as long as you need to until you feel better.
Why are you doing all this for me? Because I'm your doctor? Let me take care of you.
Okay.
Uber drivers everywhere rejoice.
Thank you, Dr.
Lin.
Come with me.
How you feeling, Danny? Like I'm just coming off a bender.
[chuckles.]
The anesthetic packs quite the punch, huh? [chuckles.]
Well, your vitals all look good.
How's the little man? How's Col? Good.
Real good.
Yeah, Dr.
Reid's operating right now, transplanting a quarter of your liver.
[chuckles.]
You're saving our son.
I don't know.
Maybe this is the drugs talking but I want to try this again us.
Yeah.
We can be like a little family again.
Hey.
And you can look after our little boy.
Okay.
All right, Danny.
Best thing you could do is sleep, my friend.
I'm afraid to.
I just got this bad feeling something's gonna happen.
Hey, hey don't worry about a thing.
We're gonna take care of Colin, all right? [monitor flatlining.]
[panting.]
You've been at that a while, Dr.
Bell.
- Do you want me to take over? - Yeah.
What is going on? Give me an amp of epi.
Okay, give it a second.
[device beeping.]
Okay, it's fibrillating.
Paddles.
Charge to 10.
[whirring.]
- Still V-fib.
- Okay, just needs some love.
Charge to 20.
[thump.]
[beeping continues.]
Third time's the charm.
[whirring, thump.]
Come on, Sally.
Come on.
[beeping.]
[laughter.]
[sighs.]
Mr.
Leffering can't fire you after seeing this.
Her heart's beating that's all that matters.
The rest is just commentary.
Okay, pressure is good.
Good work, team.
Something's wrong.
[tone over P.
A.
.]
Code blue, Gerontology, room 211.
Code team, Gerontology, room 211.
- What happened?! - I don't know.
A doctor went in and said he had to change his IV.
- I think he was poisoned! - With what?! It doesn't matter anymore.
The only thing that matters now is Colin.
It's not over, Danny.
I'm tired of running, I'm tired of hiding.
[sighs.]
It's a good thing you did today.
Man, that's the best thing that I've ever done.
Which isn't saying much.
For the first time in my life, I'm at peace.
I just wish I could see my boy one more time.
I think we can arrange that.
[monitor beeping rhythmically.]
Bile flow is good.
Most beautiful purple you ever saw.
Right.
How's the hepatic artery? Just look at it, it's practically dancing.
Great, great.
Thank you, everybody.
I know that it's been a strange day.
What is it? They got him.
Who? Who'd they get? Danny? [sighs.]
Okay.
Okay, well, let's at least make sure his gift doesn't go to waste.
[sighs.]
I'm sorry, son.
I didn't I'm sorry.
You hear me? [sniffles.]
You're a fighter, you know.
Just like your old man, you hear me? Just promise me you'll keep fighting.
- Okay, Dad.
- [laughs.]
[sniffles.]
Ohh.
I love you, son.
Dawn Bell is one of the most impressive surgeons and leaders that I've ever met.
You think I made a mistake? Yes.
And you're putting your own career on the line to tell me that.
I guess I am.
[chuckles.]
Nobody understands what you're trying to do here.
No one wants to understand.
I'm trying to make Hope Zion a functioning hospital by doing the procedures that keep us afloat and dropping things that sink us.
Sorry for the nautical metaphor.
Now, any suggestions to help me out are welcome.
I'm not asking you to get anyone fired, I'm just looking for a little Buoyancy? Exactly.
That's exactly right, Captain.
One minute, you're saving a woman's life, next minute, you're picking up dog feces.
Highs and lows.
Sort of like a Russian novel.
Missed a spot.
[sighs.]
This is exactly as bad as it looks, and, of course, the Boy Wonder came by and got himself a nice little eyeful, didn't he? It's been a day.
You know, I could kill him, make it look like an accident.
You're too pretty for prison.
Yeah.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
[sighs.]
Hey.
I didn't know you came out here, too.
Yeah, safer than a storage closet.
[chuckles.]
Tell me about it.
Alex, what you did today in that OR was Insane! I was gonna say brilliant.
Well, there's a fine line.
Well, you walked it today.
Thank you.
Can I ask you something? Shoot.
How did Charlie know? About what? That Danny was in danger? Oh, I don't know.
I I don't want to talk about it.
- No? - No.
All right.
Manny? Yeah? There's a lullaby Saving us a riot [clears throat.]
I should - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Good night.
Giving back the time "You must believe in the possibility of" Stilling my desire "And now I do believe in it.
" "Let us leave the dead to bury the dead," "but while one is living, one must live and be happy.
" She knows it's mad The snows come back Last card, Dr.
Lin.
You're gonna have to step up your game.
Queen of spades pick up five.
Damn, Dr.
Lin! And please call me Maggie from now on.
The rose un-burned Okay.
- Anyways, I can't go.
- The page unturned Okay.
[chuckles.]
Dust your conscience off You better stop This stubborn mind Don't feel too kind I'll find out why It's in her eyes [indistinct singing.]
[knock on door.]
Hey.
I got your text.
Yeah.
It was quite a day, huh? Tell me about it.
We lost a life.
We saved one, too.
You know, in most games, batting .
500 is actually pretty good.
How come I still feel so lousy? 'Cause medicine isn't most games.
You think they'll catch the guy who did this? I don't know.
I just hope Colin knows how much his dad loved him.
Yeah.
I'm sorry I lied.
I just feel like I don't I don't see him anymore.
Well, you can see him any time you want.
Yeah, you say that, but it's not happening.
And I miss my son.
- She knows it's mad - You're right.
You're you're right.
Um, the set-up isn't fair.
Luke can try out the hospital daycare, and if he likes it, we can work out a schedule with Summer.
Okay.
Can you, um, apologize to Summer for me? Yeah.
She told me that you bribed her.
It's a pretty sweet hat she bought.
Yeah.
There's not a lot of people that could pull that look off.
Well, no.
[chuckles.]
Good night, Charlie.
Good night, Alex.
And keep the change.
- Dr.
Harris.
- Hey! Summer, thanks for bringing him in.
- Oh, hey, buddy! - Whoop.
Okay, now.
Here's the diapers and bunky.
Thank you.
Now, you're sure Dr.
Reid's okay with this.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I wouldn't worry about that.
'Cause, you know, after I got a little carried away at the party, she's only given me a second chance because Luke cries nonstop with anyone else.
Well, why don't you, um, take the rest of the day off? Don't screw me on this, Dr.
Harris.
Now, don't forget, Luke gets his morning snack You got it, you got it.
Okay.
Yep, bye! Ring, ring! What?! Who's who's on the phone? Hello? I'm sorry, I-I can't hear you.
I got a banana in my ear.
- I can't stop scratching.
- Okay, you know what? I'll get you an ointment to take away the scabby feeling, okay? I'll be back in a sec, okay? Try not to scratch.
Okay.
Mrs.
Kilbride, your son is in what we call chronic rejection.
He'll need a new liver as soon as possible.
He was so much better after his transplant.
- What's happened? - His liver's lost function.
We're unable to suppress the antibodies he's producing.
Which is why we're working so hard to find him a new one.
And given Colin's weakened immune system, the best match would be part of a liver from a living donor.
But you tested us all me, his aunts, his uncles.
No one's a match.
What about his father? I reached out to him.
No luck.
So he doesn't know that his son's seriously ill? Um, well, I can't talk to him.
Not directly.
Why not? He has a police handler.
[sighs.]
Danny was a biker.
An enforcer with the J.
M.
C.
And he cut a deal with the police, turned in his brothers, and he's been in witness protection ever since.
How long? Coming up six years.
Okay, then we go back to searching for an unrelated donor.
Someone who is an exact blood type and whose liver function assessment works for Colin.
Those are terrible odds, aren't they? It's what we've got right now.
So we'll keep his fluid and electrolyte balance stable and cross our fingers.
Okay.
Stat geek, hatchet man.
Hooved spawn of Satan.
He's just trying to live up to his billing.
Yeah, by slashing my ER budget and turning ambulances away.
He was named one of the most influential business minds under 35.
Doesn't hurt that his uncle is head of the Hospital Association.
Influential and connected.
Great.
Do me a favor and promise me you'll wipe the floor with this guy.
Dr.
Bell, you know how many hospitals there are in this city? - 24.
- 23, actually.
St.
Nathaniel is merging with Scarborough Regional at the end of the month.
Have a seat.
I hadn't heard.
Of those 23, we're one of four major trauma centers and one of five transplant hubs.
Transplant and Trauma put Hope Zion on the map.
Yeah.
You've heard of Easter Island, Dr.
Bell? Of course.
It used to be on the map, too.
Now, the theory goes it was a thriving civilization quite advanced for its time.
But their way of life wasn't sustainable.
They used up their resources and poof.
All that's left now are some you know, the big heads.
So I'm one of the big heads in this scenario, is that it? You've done some great work here, Dawn.
No one questions that.
But the medical landscape has changed.
- So, efficiencies? - Rebranding.
And you will be personally affected.
Cardiac transplants have to go first, Trauma will be next in line.
Thomas, there has to be another way.
I've looked at other scenarios this is the best one.
I'll need you to transfer your pre-op patients to other hospitals.
We'll make sure they're placed in the best possible care.
Whoa, whoa hey! What do you think you're doing with the good gloves? My patient has scabies.
I'm using the good ones.
No.
Okay, you can use one of those gloves.
Because you want me to get scabies? Okay, everyone, gather around! Huddle up, come here.
Quickly, let's go.
[sighs.]
Now, listen, this is for your ears only.
Okay, I have it on very good authority He means his girlfriend.
That the new baby-faced assassin is planning on more cuts, and he's going to be in our ER today assessing us.
But we already took a major haircut.
Why are you looking at me like that? I-I'm not.
[clears throat.]
Super Cuts.
Man, don't talk to me about cuts.
I've been in these scrubs for three days.
Yeah, cuts don't affect the laundry.
Look, we need a good day.
Okay, guys, we need a perfect day.
We just need to prove to this pencil-pushing C-3PO-looking man-boy that we're the best damn ER in the country, got it? [As C-3PO.]
Great idea, Master Luke.
Back when I was in the seminary, I, uh, used to get really tired of that question, "Why would God do this?" - Makes you wonder.
- Yeah.
So you think we're really gonna find a match for this little guy? I don't know.
But it doesn't help anyone to give up.
Excuse me, are you Colin Kilbride's doctor? I am, yes.
Oh! [grunting.]
- Don't scream, okay? - Okay.
I don't want to hurt you.
My name is Danny Kilbride.
I'm here to help my son.
How is Colin? I-I can take you to him.
No.
I want to help him.
But this has to stay off the record, okay? I might be compromised already.
What do you mean? Joanie contacted my handler, uh, a few weeks ago.
And that might be enough for them to trace her number.
Okay, so you're saying So what I'm saying is that it is very likely that somebody is following her, somebody that wants to kill me.
Okay.
But you do understand that once we start in on this, there's there's no turning back.
Well, I'm here, aren't I? Do you know your blood type? No, ma'am.
Well, let's start there.
And if you're a match we will figure out the rest somehow.
Now, I need to get a blood draw kit.
- All right? - Yeah.
Okay.
Just wait here.
Okay, you may want to look away for this part.
Oh, no, I'm good.
So we're gonna do a CBC and check your electrolytes, make sure your body is healthy enough.
To go ahead and poison it.
I know.
Crazy, right? - Mm-hmm.
- Take a deep breath.
Oh, I'm not gonna pass out on you.
You know how I made money as a teenager? Mopping up after cattle births.
Oh, my God, that's you're joking.
Come on, Dr.
Lin, I'm not that hardcore.
I actually worked at Zehrs.
Oh.
Okay.
That's it.
You okay? Mm-hmm.
Want me to get someone to walk you to Chemo? [sighs.]
I should be good.
Although after my last chemo treatment, I threw up all over my Uber.
Is Violet coming to get you? Nope.
She left.
Actually, I kicked her out.
So I guess she left.
It was pretty messy.
I'm sorry.
She was halfway out the door, anyways.
Her loss, right? That's the spirit.
Maybe there's a little country optimism in you yet.
[chuckles.]
I'll see you up there.
See you up there.
I look forward to seeing your team rise to the challenge of a more fiscally responsible discipline.
Yes.
I look forward as well, Thomas.
I wish Dr.
Bell shared your enthusiasm, Zachary.
Oh, she's just saving her pep for the OR.
- Incoming! - Joe Falstaff, 29 years old.
He fell four stories installing windows at a downtown condo.
Okay, let's stop here.
Hi, Joe, my name is Dr.
Miller.
Can you hear me? Can you open your eyes? What do we got? Construction worker fell four stories.
Billy? Looks like massive internal hemorrhaging.
It's not just blood.
There's cranial content here skull is mush.
Okay.
Pupils are fixed and dilated.
Jackson? Nothing.
Okay, there's no brain function.
Let's call in Neuro just to confirm.
Chart says he's a donor.
Okay, let's get him on a vent.
Thanks, guys.
- Excuse me, sir.
- Hmm.
Mmm, yeah, hi.
Wow, that was quick.
I'm joking.
I've been waiting for hours.
Okay, well, someone will be with you shortly, but in the meantime, you can't smoke that in here.
Mmm.
It's okay because it's a vape, so I don't care if it's holy water.
You can't smoke that mouth fedora in my ER, you got it? If you take another drag off that, I'm gonna call security.
Very mature.
- Hey, doc.
- Yep.
Where are the elevators at? It's down the hall there.
[glass shatters, woman screams.]
[screams.]
- My mouth! My mouth! - Don't touch your face! Okay, oh, no, no, don't touch it, don't touch.
Nurse, uh, can I get a nurse? We need a nurse! Uh You'll be just fine.
[moans.]
Sekara, you're with me today.
Uh, I was actually just about to report to the ER.
Change of plans.
Three of these are in end-stage heart failure.
Most of them are on a bridge to transplant.
Well, I'm honored you asked me to help.
Oh, we're not helping.
We're starting the process of transferring them out of here.
[P.
A.
beeps, indistinct announcement.]
Dr.
Bell, is it Wednesday already? What happens Wednesday? Sally is the leader of our book club.
Well, three is hardly a club.
Dr.
Bell blackmailed her boyfriend into hearing me go on about books.
- You're welcome to join us, Doctor - Sekara.
What are you reading? "War and Peace.
" Still.
[Chuckles.]
[Monitor beeps.]
"We can only know that we know nothing," "and that's the highest degree of human wisdom.
" Very good.
I like a well-read man.
So, Sally, I need to assess that you are well enough to travel.
Travel where? We're gonna be transferring you to Mississauga Memorial.
They have a wonderful transplant program there.
Dr.
Bradley is a masterful surgeon.
But I want to stay here.
We understand that, but the No, I just got settled.
M-My books are here, you're here.
You've been my surgeon for six years.
I understand that this must come as a shock.
You told me after that first surgery that we would see this through together.
My hands are tied, Sally.
I am so sorry.
Something on your mind, Dr.
Reid? Oh, just one of those days.
Well, do you feel like sharing? I would, but then I'd have to kill you.
So - I'm only half joking.
- Right.
Well, whatever it is, I'd like to help.
Okay.
Um Meet me in the storage closet by the lab in 10 minutes? - Storage closet? - Yeah, just trust me, okay? - Okay.
- Sorry to interrupt.
You're not interrupting.
- 10 minutes.
- Yeah.
- What do you need? - Uh, your signature, actually.
What am I signing? It's a test run for Luke.
I thought we talked about daycare and decided a stay-at-home nanny was best for Luke.
Yeah, we did, but, uh, I don't get to see him anymore, Alex.
Okay.
Uh, our hours are insane.
How are we gonna make daycare hours work? We'll make it work.
Shahir and Jonathan already agreed to help with off-hour transitions.
So you told them about this before talking to me? [cellphone buzzes.]
[sighs.]
It's the daycare.
They say that Luke won't stop crying.
They're supposed to call me.
So you already put him in daycare.
[sighs.]
It's a one-day trial, Alex.
Look he's my son, okay.
I should be able to see him whenever I want, but I can't do that when he's at the condo because I don't live there anymore.
Well, I'm gonna call Summer and get her to come back here.
- Whatever.
- You went behind my back.
Maybe it's 'cause I don't want to talk to you these days, Alex.
Oh, so what, you're just gonna lie to me? - I didn't lie to you.
- Yeah, you did.
It's me.
I hate surprises.
- Wait, wait, wait! - I told you no one else can know.
Okay, okay, listen, he's a vascular surgeon.
He is your son's vascular surgeon.
Please just, he he needs to be here, too.
Let him go.
Let him go.
Please? We cool? That depends, brother.
That all depends on you.
All right.
We have good news.
You and your son are a match.
Blood type and HLA, too.
That means that part of your liver is gonna save his life.
My conditions, though.
Yeah? This stays completely anonymous.
There's a lot of people that want to see me dead.
You serious? I'm not gonna put my family at risk again.
We'll label you a John Doe and book an OR.
No.
No, no.
OR that's with all those windows.
That's a lot of people.
That's not gonna work.
It's not gonna work.
Okay, wait.
Okay, wait, wait! There has to be an alternative.
To operating in an operating room? Yeah.
What what about the skills lab? What about it? Well, it it could double as an OR in an emergency situation.
This is not an emergency, Doc.
It could become one real quick.
You mentioned that, yeah.
We'll put John Doe on the chart, limit the staff, get Dawn to sign off on it, and prep the skills lab.
What do you say, Dr.
Palmer, want to save a life together? [Monitor beeping rhythmically.]
It's okay, baby.
He's getting worse by the hour.
Please tell me you have good news.
We do.
We got lucky, Joan.
A donor just came in.
Took us a while to run the tests, but he's a perfect match for Colin.
Really? Really.
Um Who's the donor? I want to thank them.
I-I need to thank them.
Well, all donors are anonymous.
I'll ask him if he wants to see you, but there are no guarantees.
Him? - Mrs.
Kilbride - Wait.
So you're telling me that in the last hour, you've managed to find someone who's a perfect match for Colin? [clears throat.]
[voice breaking.]
It's him, isn't it? It's Danny.
He came back.
[sniffles.]
He came back for us.
You obviously still care about him.
Of course I do.
Why else would I hate him so much for leaving? The thing is we gotta keep this under wraps, okay? Danny is nervous enough as it is.
If he finds out that anyone else knows he's here he could take off.
And it would be a serious setback for Colin.
Whatever you have to do.
All right.
But all he's talked about for years is seeing his dad again.
So you tell Danny that he'll talk to his son, or so help me, God, I'll kill him myself.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I heard about your transplant patients.
I'm so sorry.
You had a brain-dead potential donor - come in this morning, right? - Yep.
- Type AB-positive? - Yep.
On a vent, waiting for a bus to go to General.
I think he could be waiting a while.
I canceled it.
But our new CEO clearly expressed You're gonna do the transplant anyway? You should have seen Sally's face, Zach.
I just I couldn't do it.
We do need to finish "War and Peace.
" Damn right.
Do you think you could have a few of your residents bring him up to the OR? Damn right.
"Art is to console those who are broken by life.
" - Kanye West? - Van Gogh, actually.
Which one of them do you think was crazier? That is a toss-up.
I'm gonna get you some water for those anti-nauseants.
Oh, no, that's okay.
[Coughing.]
I saw that on a movie once, and I really wanted to try it.
It's a little harder than it looks.
- Yeah.
- [chuckles.]
I tried to get you a room on the ward, but day patients are pretty low on the totem pole.
Well, who knows, maybe this time, the pills will work and I won't spew all over some stranger's sedan.
It's okay to be scared, Bree.
I thought being alone would be better than Violet staying out of pity.
But well, it turns out I was wrong.
You're not alone.
How's it going? You guys almost ready? Getting there.
It would be a lot faster if we had an actual OR.
She's not wrong.
Why are we prepping in here when OR 5 is free? Well, the new CEO wants to test it out.
Might be another revenue stream.
Maybe he should be the one sterilizing everything by hand.
Yeah.
I'll let him know you said that.
Wayne, come on, man.
Let's prove to everyone that anesthesiologists aren't as lame as everyone thinks.
Spread your wings, brother.
I'll get O'Toole to cover your next two shifts.
Flap.
Flap.
My man.
You don't have to be scared.
I'm gonna be sitting right outside.
They're gonna take such good care of you.
Okay, baby? Hi.
[sighs.]
Hi.
Say hello to your boy, Danny.
Hello, little man.
Do you remember me? Are you feeling okay? You look like crap, so [chuckles.]
The doctor is gonna fix you up, though.
With some help from daddy's liver.
Yeah.
Whatever's mine is yours.
Just make sure he gets the part that didn't absorb all the tequila shots.
I'll see what I can do.
Same old Joanie.
You haven't changed much yourself.
We should get you both prepped and ready.
Boom.
Take care, son.
You too.
[Chuckles.]
Dad? Yeah? Will you be here when I wake up? Yep.
Yes, I will.
So we'll prep Colin while we harvest the other liver, and when it's ready, Colin's procedure will start.
You really think this will work? I do.
Dr.
Bell, what do you think you're doing? Putting the patient's scans up in preparation for her transplant.
After I ordered her transferred to another hospital? Mrs.
Ambrose's health is failing.
It's my call for my patient.
Her transfer has already been signed.
If we operate on her, do you have any idea of the liability? Nothing's gonna go wrong.
Look, I'm sure she's a pet patient, but she is one patient.
You're trying to save her, I'm trying to save this hospital.
You need to call this off and get an ambulance here right now.
You know, I'll, uh, make it easy and do it for you.
Stop.
My patient is getting a new heart today, right here.
I am seeing this through.
Then I expect your resignation as Chief of Surgery by tomorrow morning.
Woman: Clear for takeoff, Dr.
Bell.
You okay? Yeah, I just need a moment.
[breathes deeply.]
[knock on door.]
Dr.
Bell? We were wondering if we could assist.
Do you both understand the risks that you're taking? Yes, we do.
Scrub up.
Alex: Almost through the left lateral segment.
What do you think about the vasculature? These two hepatic arteries are giving me some doubts.
Nothing we can't handle, right? It's mostly the adult artery matching up with Colin that I'm concerned with.
Well, if it's too big, you just punch a hole in it.
You a you calling me skinny? No.
And I thought Danny here was paranoid.
Okay, we will do a modified donor graft unless you think I can't handle it.
No.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am so sorry about the wait time.
We're doing the best we can.
We'll be with you shortly.
We're out of Albuterol, Naloxone, and tongue depressors.
So call Don Valley, see if we can mooch, and tell him we're good for it.
Yeah, we're not good for it.
Jackson, I'm having a day that rivals the Egyptian plagues.
Just do me a favor, call, and lie, okay? [dogs barking.]
Oh, no.
Sorry, ma'am.
No no dogs allowed in here.
No flea bags! Out! Go, bad dog! I'm sorry, but it's just my head.
I really don't feel so good.
Oh.
No, no, wait! [barking intensifies.]
Oh! Pestilence! See, this is Mrs.
Gleiberman's wrist.
She broke that while, um, roller-blading.
I didn't even know people still did that.
And that is Mr.
Barnham's elbow.
He shattered that stage-diving at the Mod Club, I think, when nobody caught him.
Hmm.
You can see me? Mm-hmm.
Can he? I sincerely hope not.
Summer! Thank you for coming back.
Uh-huh.
You said you wouldn't screw me, but your wife just almost fired me again.
Well, she's not my wife.
- What's up? - That's a nice hat.
I know, right? Okay, Lukey, time to go.
Bye-bye.
Bye, buddy.
Don't let him out of your life.
It's true what they say.
You don't know what you've got until it's gone.
You're still here? Who's that? I recognize him from somewhere.
Follow him, go.
What? Please, just do it.
Uh Eight, please.
Ask him what he's doing here.
So, you visiting someone or Yeah.
Ask who.
Well, whoever it is, I hope they're doing okay.
My mom, yeah.
She's she's all right.
[scoffs.]
Ask the time.
Oh, damn it.
You, uh you got the proper time? Almost 2:00.
[elevator dings.]
Thanks.
So, what the hell was that all about? Did you see that tattoo? Yeah.
But having a lousy tattoo isn't a crime.
He's here to kill me, man.
You've gotta protect me.
I can't do anything.
I'm in surgery.
Who's your doctor? Reid Alex Reid.
Alex, can I talk to you for a second? Kind of in the middle of a transplant here.
Listen, your patient's in danger.
Someone's trying to kill him.
We got it covered.
No, you don't, actually.
The minute you're done, you need to move the patient and hide him somewhere safe.
Put him Gerontology.
They have vents and the staff to monitor him.
I'll have them clear a room.
I'm sorry, but what the hell was that? Welcome to my world.
Ice.
Call OR 5, tell them to prep Colin, we're on our way.
So, Dr.
Bell, just out of curiosity's sake, how are you planning on explaining this to the board? I'm not.
Figured I'd let Sally do that for me.
Three, two one.
"Nothing is so necessary for a young man" "as the company of intelligent women.
" "War and Peace.
" It's a gold mine.
Amen to that one.
Tolstoy must have had a good mother.
[chuckles.]
[alarms ringing.]
- What's happening? - I don't know.
Pressure's in free-fall and she's bucking the vent.
Hypertension and pulmonary vasoconstriction.
- Hyper-rejection.
- It can't be.
Her antibody screen was clean.
Okay, we need to heparinize her again and get her back on pump or she has no chance at transplant.
Get those lines ready.
[rapid beeping.]
Nobody but hospital staff with badges comes into the room, and no visitors of any kind.
- Got it.
- All right.
- You sure this threat's legit? - Well [sighs.]
Better safe than sorry.
How do you know all this? Just page me if anything changes.
Bree.
How are you feeling? Oh, I'll let you know when the room stops spinning.
I'll see you tomorrow, Dr.
Lin.
Uh, actually, Bree, I found you a room for tonight.
Oh, seriously? It's really close by, you can stay there for as long as you need to until you feel better.
Why are you doing all this for me? Because I'm your doctor? Let me take care of you.
Okay.
Uber drivers everywhere rejoice.
Thank you, Dr.
Lin.
Come with me.
How you feeling, Danny? Like I'm just coming off a bender.
[chuckles.]
The anesthetic packs quite the punch, huh? [chuckles.]
Well, your vitals all look good.
How's the little man? How's Col? Good.
Real good.
Yeah, Dr.
Reid's operating right now, transplanting a quarter of your liver.
[chuckles.]
You're saving our son.
I don't know.
Maybe this is the drugs talking but I want to try this again us.
Yeah.
We can be like a little family again.
Hey.
And you can look after our little boy.
Okay.
All right, Danny.
Best thing you could do is sleep, my friend.
I'm afraid to.
I just got this bad feeling something's gonna happen.
Hey, hey don't worry about a thing.
We're gonna take care of Colin, all right? [monitor flatlining.]
[panting.]
You've been at that a while, Dr.
Bell.
- Do you want me to take over? - Yeah.
What is going on? Give me an amp of epi.
Okay, give it a second.
[device beeping.]
Okay, it's fibrillating.
Paddles.
Charge to 10.
[whirring.]
- Still V-fib.
- Okay, just needs some love.
Charge to 20.
[thump.]
[beeping continues.]
Third time's the charm.
[whirring, thump.]
Come on, Sally.
Come on.
[beeping.]
[laughter.]
[sighs.]
Mr.
Leffering can't fire you after seeing this.
Her heart's beating that's all that matters.
The rest is just commentary.
Okay, pressure is good.
Good work, team.
Something's wrong.
[tone over P.
A.
.]
Code blue, Gerontology, room 211.
Code team, Gerontology, room 211.
- What happened?! - I don't know.
A doctor went in and said he had to change his IV.
- I think he was poisoned! - With what?! It doesn't matter anymore.
The only thing that matters now is Colin.
It's not over, Danny.
I'm tired of running, I'm tired of hiding.
[sighs.]
It's a good thing you did today.
Man, that's the best thing that I've ever done.
Which isn't saying much.
For the first time in my life, I'm at peace.
I just wish I could see my boy one more time.
I think we can arrange that.
[monitor beeping rhythmically.]
Bile flow is good.
Most beautiful purple you ever saw.
Right.
How's the hepatic artery? Just look at it, it's practically dancing.
Great, great.
Thank you, everybody.
I know that it's been a strange day.
What is it? They got him.
Who? Who'd they get? Danny? [sighs.]
