Royal Pains s07e05 Episode Script
Voices Carry
Previously on Royal Pains.
For a man who was engaged just a few days ago, you certainly don't waste any time.
My people are waiting for their future queen.
Oh! We know how little you care about the board And being on a gala committee, so we hate to ask you this, but we could use a favor.
How can I help? I'll bet a hundred.
A hundred.
$100,000.
Sold to the beautiful Ms.
Houston.
Hank.
You actually thought you had Well, I texted, and you said Oh, that was you? I should go.
Well, you're already here.
Why don't you come in? __ __ _ I am quite aware of the danger, Mr.
Chen.
I was only asking because We both need to exercise caution and keep our circle small.
That is how we protect everyone.
Gus? Paige.
Welcome to your castle.
This does not look like my castle.
Gus, where's the progress? Like this.
My business partner and I got this gorgeous Turn-of-the-century banister two weeks ago, And you haven't even taken it out of the box? Antique, huh? Those take a while to install.
We have a baby coming in three months.
Oh, yeah.
I see the glow now.
- We're adopting.
- Oh, that makes more sense.
Look, we need a home to bring our daughter to, and it can't have dust, or exposed wires, Or a staircase with no banister.
I want progress.
I'm on it.
Thank you.
Two more boxes of iodine swabs should do it.
And, uh, we're going back to powder-free latex gloves.
Next order of business is, uh, next week's schedule.
So, Hank, I know you wanted those camp physicals To take place on Tuesday, there's a conflict, so they're gonna be Monday.
I'm hoping you can do those solo.
Look at you.
You're a natural.
I still can't believe you're about to have one of your own.
Our little Evan, just all grown up.
Pretty sure I've been grown up for a while, guys, - but thank you.
- I'm serious, Ev.
I'm proud of you.
I'm really excited to be an uncle.
And I'm going to be an aunt.
I mean, you know, not technically, but I am still your baby's aunt.
Accept it.
I do accept it, and I love it, and thank you so much for the practice.
Here, go to Mama.
Here you go, Sashi.
And since we're already off topic, I'm actually gonna jump Right to my post-HankMed meeting addendum.
Here you go.
A Mamaroo, a Bugaboo, and a "pooj snug?" "Puj Snug.
" Okay.
What is all this? It's a baby gift registry.
Yeah.
In the interest of time, I've assigned each of you gifts to purchase.
But Paige and I promise to look surprised.
I'm not even gonna make fun of you for this.
Well, I make no such promise.
But I'm gonna cut this short.
Raj will be here any minute, And I've got to go to a meeting with my lawyers.
"Lawyers?" Plural? - What are they all doing? - Yeah.
We're waiting for Rafa and his lawyers to make their next move.
Don't worry, I'll be fine.
You go in to the city.
Yeah? You sure? You and Jeremiah can cover me? I can.
Jeremiah's not in town.
What? Where'd he go? A staffing trip for Boris, I think.
Did you say that you have a patient in Manhattan? Yeah, I'm going with Olympia.
Houston, he's spending the weekend with her.
Do you have any idea who this woman is? Olympia Houston.
No, seriously, I'm talking about her ex-husbands.
- Nothing? - Nothing.
So these are men who have risen to the top of their fields.
Like, they've built empires, but only after marrying her.
She's a kingmaker, Henry.
King Henry has kind of a ring to it.
So I guess she proves the old "behind every great man" adage.
Let's just say we can thank Olympia Houston for the auto bailout, the Freedom Tower, And the peaceful re-annexation of Hong Kong.
Well, I'm spending the weekend with her, Not re-annexing Hong Kong.
Of course not.
It's re-annexed now.
That's what I just said.
What was I thinking, though? If you're with Olympia Houston, you can afford more than a freaking Bugaboo.
Raj! Sorry to interrupt.
Oh, perfect timing.
Sashi's ready to go.
Great to see you again, Raj.
Same here.
- Come here.
- Ah.
I honestly still can't believe after Divya jilted you like that You guys ended up friends.
Mm.
It was a surprise for us too.
Okay, I better go.
Good to see you again.
You forgot your registry.
No, I did not.
Hold up.
Wait a sec wait up.
So, friend, are we Completely alone.
Good.
I missed you this morning.
I missed you too.
Oops.
Raj? Bye.
I am so sorry I walked in on you.
Oh.
- Of course, I didn't know there was a "you.
" - Yeah.
- How long has there been A "you?" If there is a "you.
" Couple of weeks ago.
We started spending time together, But we are not ready for anyone to know yet.
Your secret is safe with me.
No! No, it It's not like it's a secret.
We just don't know what "it" is yet.
Okay, so does that mean you're not seeing that prince? Because when you were with him at the galley You seemed to be having such a good time.
I thought maybe I didn't know.
No.
I wasn't "with" with him.
It's it's complicated.
Yeah.
I should have asked.
It's really none of my business.
No, no, no.
It's okay.
I've got to go though.
Bye.
Okay.
Hello? Wait, Rafa did what? Are you sure? He's changed his mind before.
All right, I'm on my way.
Okay.
- Any more dizzy spells? - No.
- Mind if I check? - I expect no less.
Stand up, please.
Close your eyes.
And walk a few paces.
I believe I was merely fatigued, as you suggested.
Well, I'm glad you're taking it easier now.
Close.
Come back to me.
It's Evan.
Come.
Hey.
So can I speak to you privately, for one second? When I'm finished you can.
I was talking to Boris.
Oh, yeah, no problem.
You'll analyze those here? The lab will forward the results to your clinical trial doctor.
Good.
Thank you.
Anytime.
Bye, guys.
Bye-bye.
Evan.
Boris.
So I just wanted to I was surprised to hear you sent Jeremiah on an HHCR & OD business trip.
Hamptons Heritage Center for Rare and Orphan Diseases.
- Sorry.
I do that.
- Ah.
You see, he's still a HankMed doctor, So it kind of throws the schedule off When he's suddenly not around with no warning.
That's all, you know.
You're here to discuss HankMed scheduling? I I mean, I was, but I'm done, if you are.
I am.
Okay, great.
Cool, so the other thing I wanted to mention was the hospital asset tracking program I've implemented which I told you about.
It's going great.
I mean, it's really great.
It's almost finished.
There's just a little itsy bitsy issue that's come up.
You know that robotic surgery arm we have on loan from DARPA that no one knows how to use? Well, no one is gonna learn how to use it, 'cause it's missing.
It's not missing.
The Department of Defense recalled it.
Oh.
Well I'm surprised I didn't have to sign anything or, you know, administrate that.
Hmm.
Anyway, that's a huge relief, to be honest.
I thought you were going to have me disappeared or something.
No.
Not for that.
You said you had a meeting in New York, Not that it was at the UN.
Well, where else would a global health center be? - Fair point.
Fair point.
- Sorry for the side trip.
I needed to grab the materials to review, before tomorrow.
Yeah.
I know you came in for a romantic getaway, not a tour of the UN.
Hey, hey, hey.
I came for you.
Yeah, it occurs to me you are in the business of health.
Why don't you join me at the summit? Like I said, I came for the romantic getaway.
- Well, let's get to it.
- Okay.
Oh, that's Dr.
Alam Saba.
- I need to say hello.
- Okay.
He's Afghanistan's Minister of Public Health.
I've been trying to get him on board with our initiatives, But he's a tough nut to crack.
Dr.
Saba? Ms.
Houston.
Dr.
Saba, this is Dr.
Hank Lawson.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
My English is poor.
Probably better than our Pashto.
What kind of medicine are you in the practice of? Concierge.
Which is house calls, so really GP.
GP? Which is general practice.
But before that I practiced in Brooklyn, in the ER.
I was an ER doctor.
I need my interpreter.
Okay, yeah.
Me too.
Ah.
There she is.
Excuse me.
Sure.
Mina? Well, that wasn't awkward at all.
That was charmingly unsophisticated.
You can make anything sound like a compliment.
Stop! Stop! Her shoulder is dislocated.
Okay.
Hold still.
Wait, wait, wait.
Stop, stop.
Dr.
Sabah, if you'll excuse me, may I take a look? Thank you.
Hi.
Nope.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's a posterior dislocation.
We need to disengage the humeral head from the glenoid fossa.
Now, Dr.
Sabah, I need your help, okay? Can you push right here? Anterior and laterally.
Okay, listen.
This is gonna hurt, but I need to do it slowly.
Here we go.
Ah! Okay.
Thank you.
Of course.
Whew! You're gonna be okay.
How long do I have to wear this? Until I can get you a real sling.
Oh, just use that.
It's more fashionable.
Oh, well, thank you.
Then how long do I get to wear this? Two weeks.
You also want to ice your shoulder - A couple of times a day.
- Good thing you were there.
Dr.
Saba might have taken her arm off.
Oh, well, he used the right method for An anterior dislocation, which is what usually happens.
This one's uncommon.
Have you had any muscle or joint pain? No.
Okay.
Any family history of connective tissue disorders? Not that I know of.
- Any other symptoms? - I'm fine.
A little overwhelmed this past week, but otherwise fine.
- Because of the summit? - Maybe.
Since this new delegation arrived, I've had trouble concentrating.
Not what you want in an interpreter.
Why do you think that is? Dr.
Saba.
He's kind of intense.
I can see how Dr.
Saba could be intimidating.
I heard he made Putin cry once.
Twice, but I can handle him.
I have to.
Tomorrow's conference is too important.
What's it about? Finding alternatives to cooking over open fires indoors.
The smoke causes lung cancer.
A lot of those lives are in Afghanistan.
I'm supposed to be objective, but I still have family there.
Well, speaking objectively, it sounds like a very good cause.
Our soon-to-be daughter and her mother are healthy.
Dr.
Neil called her directly, and I think they liked each other, so long story short, Elan agreed to move to the Hamptons for her last month of pregnancy.
And yes, before you ask, the house will be ready.
- You sure about that? - Positive.
'Cause I think paint actually dries faster than Gus puts it on.
Well, I gave him a talking to, and he knows the drill now, And he was putting up the banister when I left, so Doesn't surprise me at all.
You do that.
- Do what? - You get the job done.
You take the bull by the horns, and your bull actually listens.
Boris isn't listening? I don't know, I've never worked for a mysterious gazillionaire before.
I just I don't know how to do it.
Maybe there's no right way.
He's sending Jeremiah to do staffing.
That's my job.
He's not even keeping me in the loop.
Like, he's never been an over-sharer, but I just think he doesn't trust me.
Of course he trusts you.
He picked you, didn't he? I just want him to think I'm the best hospital administrator there ever was.
Ever.
Is that too much to ask? No.
So you know what you do? You take Boris by the horns.
Finish that asset tracking.
Continue to update the network infrastructure.
Show him what you're capable of.
Boris will see that he chose the right man.
I promise.
Are you disappointed we missed our dinner reservation? Absolutely not.
Got a chance to see you in action.
Besides, this is more romantic.
I couldn't agree more.
You know, you really impressed Dr.
Saba today, And he is not easily impressed.
Plus, you rallied Mina's spirits.
She opened up to you right away.
It's all part of the job.
No.
I have many doctors.
I open up to none.
You you put people at ease.
You think outside the box.
I think you should expand your horizons.
What do you mean? Well, I happen to know that the deputy director of the World Health Organization is leaving his post soon.
I could get your name on the short list.
- Yeah? - Mm-hmm.
Deputy director.
I wouldn't know the first thing about a job like that.
Oh, you know more than you think.
Come to the conference tomorrow, just to observe.
I know you want to check on Mina, anyway.
This morning my brother was joking about, well, he called you a kingmaker.
Well, deputy director is a far cry from king, Hank.
Baby steps.
- Baby steps.
- Mm-hmm.
So this is what you do? You make men into projects? I don't make men extraordinary.
I am attracted to extraordinary men.
Well, I hate to tell you, But I may not be ambitious enough for you.
At least you didn't say "old enough.
" Never.
Thank you.
I give the floor to the distinguished delegate from Afghanistan, Dr.
Alam Saba.
Dr.
Lawson.
You have all provided interesting suggestions.
Actually, we haven't heard from you, Dr.
Lawson.
You are a general practice doctor.
Thank you.
Hello.
So I'm not sure what all the factors are, But I guess if I were the doctor on the scene dealing with smoke inhalation, I'd want chest x-rays, supplemental oxygen, corticosteroids.
Have you considered ventilating the room? Finally, someone thinking differently.
I had the same idea.
Villagers should begin testing prototypes right away.
We need not reinvent the wheel.
I apologize.
My interpreter is daydreaming.
No, she's having a seizure.
But wouldn't I know if I had a seizure? There are many kinds.
What you had was an absence seizure.
A momentary lapse of awareness.
Why did I have it? They're caused by sudden electrical charges in your brain, and this is not the first one.
You said you were having trouble concentrating, recently.
They're all seizures? I think so, and I also think you had one yesterday, which would explain your rare shoulder dislocation.
It wasn't the cab pulling your arm.
You tensed your body so much that you popped the bone out of the socket.
But why now? Could be reflex epilepsy.
It's a convulsive disorder where a certain trigger causes seizures.
Like what? Well, triggers can be sounds you hear, things you feel, things you see.
Some people react to flashing lights, a particular song, even bathing could be a trigger.
What triggered me? Well, we'll know more when we get you to the hospital.
But I feel fine now, And the committee will be back from break soon.
Are there no other Pashto interpreters? Not today.
I wouldn't want to endanger Mina's health, but it did take six months to pull this conference together.
Lives are at stake.
Right now I'm focused on your life.
Are these sessions recorded? Yeah, Jorge takes care of our technical equipment.
Can he play them back? There's nothing he can't do.
Jorge.
Come here.
What do you need, Mina? Jorge, is it possible for you to play back Just the last 30 seconds of the meeting? - Sure.
- Great.
I'm gonna see if we can trigger another seizure.
Now, I'll have this Ativan ready to stop it, if I need to, but I want to return to exactly what was happening When you last seized.
Okay.
We're ready.
That does not look like a momentary lapse.
No, it doesn't.
Okay.
One more second.
It happened again? I think something in Dr.
Saba's voice is a trigger for you.
It would explain why your recent lapses in concentration started when he arrived.
Yesterday, when you dislocated your shoulder, Dr.
Saba was calling your name, and today you were interpreting for him.
One person's voice? So I'm gonna seize every time he talks? Well, medication should help to control it, And Dr.
Saba isn't a permanent delegate, right? But I can't finish this conference.
I'm not much use if I can't tolerate the voice of the man I'm here to interpret.
It's all right.
We can reschedule.
Yeah, in another six months.
Maybe you won't have to.
Jorge, I understand from a reliable source that there is nothing you can't do.
Installing vents will save lives in the interim.
In addition, it will create jobs and be cost-effective.
We will work with existing international aid dollars to increase the number of households testing prototypes.
Divya? What are you doing here, Rafa? I signed the papers.
Did you really sign them? The full custody agreement? Yes.
Just like that.
After everything you've put me through this past month? I'm sorry.
One minute you're trying to take Sashi away from me, And then out of the blue you agree to give me full custody, And now you are outside my lawyer's office.
What happened? You.
Your voice message.
I was furious.
You were passionate.
Passionate and strong.
The qualities I fell in love with.
The qualities I want my daughter to have.
Does your mother want Sashi to be like me? I should not have let her take control.
I should have called sooner.
- How is Sashi? - She's happy.
Could I see her? The agreement allows for scheduled visits.
How about now? She's napping for another hour.
Well, we could grab a drink while we wait.
You still like mojitos? Really? After all we've been through? Especially after all we've been through.
How about a bottle? It's Sashi's dinner.
You can join us.
I'd like that.
Hey, what's with the model? Are we planning some renovations? A long-term stratagem.
Nothing pressing.
Huh.
Well, just so you know, I expected the asset tracking report to be ready today, but it's not.
It's I don't know.
Some kind of delay, but I will get to the bottom of it first thing tomorrow.
- I have it.
- You have it? Yeah.
I asked them to deliver it directly to me.
You have too much on your plate, as it is.
Actually, I excel with a full plate, So heap it on.
Seriously, is that it? - How does it look? - Good.
Nothing of concern.
So, I need you focused on the integrated computer systems.
That is a priority, yeah? The computer systems.
Okay.
Well, just in terms of my workload, I want you to know I feel very confident that I can han Ready with the presentation, sir.
I can come with you, if you want.
No.
Thank you.
Thank you for joining us, We're very excited to show you what we have.
We took all of your suggestions and considerations.
Let's sit and take a look.
What? What the hell? Ow.
Make sure I see that in the reports analyzed.
- Sir? - Yeah? - One last thing.
- Oh.
And that's your copy.
You were saying? Oh, hello.
Good.
You're still here.
Wow, it is really coming along.
- No, it's not.
- No, it's not.
Sorry.
But here.
I bought you this.
It wasn't on your registry, but I cannot live without mine.
Oh, thank you.
I appreciate it.
And I wanted to say sorry for how short I was with you yesterday.
I couldn't answer your questions because, frankly, I don't know the answers.
Oh, you don't have to.
I mean, I know that things are better than ever with Raj, without the family pressure.
But then this prince I mean, this actual prince just drops into my life.
To make things more confusing, Rafa shows up.
Wait, wait.
Rafa's back in the picture? Back in the Hamptons.
Definitely not back in the picture.
See, the thing is, I don't have a lot of experience dating.
It's basically been an almost arranged marriage and then Rafa, which turned out beautifully, because I got Sashi, But I wasn't exactly thinking clearly with him.
Am I shutting myself off from taking a risk with another man because of how that ended? Oh, God, or am I afraid to commit to Raj because it was my parents who picked him in the first place? I don't want to make a safe choice.
Nor do I want to make a foolish one.
Wow, that's a lot to think about.
The thing is I've been thinking about it so much.
I mean, it's been so inside my head.
You know, it feels good to say it out loud.
Thank you.
Gus? What are you - Are you okay? - No, he's not.
Ambulance is on the way.
Good.
Paige, I need you to put some gloves on.
I'm gonna need your help.
Is that my bone? Yes, we need to reduce it now.
- Reduce it? - Pop the bone back in.
But don't I need anesthesia? Gus, you have no pulse in your foot.
If we don't do this now, you could lose your leg.
Okay.
I need that more.
Paige, pull open the skin.
Hold on tight.
All right, Gus.
Take a deep breath.
One, two.
It worked.
It worked.
All right, we'll splint it now.
We need some sticks a couple of feet long.
Got it.
You okay, Gus? - What else do you need? - Some towels.
Clean towels to soak in saline, so we can protect the wound.
Uh I don't have any towels here or anything clean, for that matter.
Actually, check the nursery.
Next to the microwave.
There's a microwave? Uh-huh.
Okay, great.
Thank you.
- So that was the hospital.
- How's Mina? The doctors did an EEG and confirmed her reflex epilepsy.
They've started her on anti-seizure meds.
- She should be fine.
- Oh, good.
We need women like her at the UN.
Not to mention men like you.
You know, your input really brought Dr.
Saba around.
Ah, I just mentioned vents.
Using resources at hand to save people's lives.
Isn't that what you always do? Yeah.
Yeah, I guess so.
You could be saving people you don't even know a million at a time.
You're laying it on a little thick, but I admit it was fun.
So does that mean you're considering the position at the World Health Organization? Look, I'm grateful for this experience, and the offer is hard to pass up.
But you're going to.
I'm just not a suit and tie guy.
I like my simple life in the Hamptons.
That's who I am, and I understand.
I understand you're a woman who likes a bigger stage.
Yeah, that's who I am.
I'm leaving for Switzerland this afternoon.
A meeting for global gender parity.
And tomorrow I have a full day of camp physicals.
Well, I hope our paths cross again when I return to the Hamptons.
Me too.
Your call sounded frantic.
What's up? Boris is up to something.
Okay.
What's he doing now? Trading arms to the Chinese.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Boris may be a lot of things, But I doubt he's selling weapons to a foreign superpower.
Not weapons well, maybe weapons, actually.
No.
I'm talking about arms.
- Like, robotic arms.
- Oh And there was this device in his office, I put my finger in it, it bit me.
Okay, you sound like an insane person.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
I do? What about this mysterious Jeremiah trip then? Staffing's my job.
Why would Boris send him to do it? Okay, now you sound jealous.
What? You're not listening Okay, the report.
I saw this report.
Even though Boris tried to hide it from me, I saw it.
There's all this equipment that's just gone missing.
Like, an entire operating room.
Missing or misplaced? I mean, it's a huge hospital.
You can't keep track of every single thing.
That's what I'm trying to I can't keep track of anything.
He took the whole project away from me.
Ev, listen to me.
Come here.
I know how much you want to impress Boris, okay? But I think you're letting your insecurity get the better of you.
Just let it go.
You're absolutely right.
- I know.
- Letting it go.
Okay, okay, good.
I'm gonna get myself a coffee.
Kuester, Kuester, Kuester.
Kuester Gotcha.
309.
Hank.
Hey, Boris.
What can I do for you? Jeremiah came to see me a few days ago.
- He was quite distraught.
- Why? He'd made a rather large purchasing error for the lab.
He wanted to write a personal check to cover it, And I assured him that was unnecessary, but still, he seemed anxious.
I offered to let him stay at one of my country homes.
Oh.
He told us he was on a trip for you.
Yeah, that has come to my attention.
Huh.
Well, I don't know why he lied to us, But if he needs time away He never arrived, Hank.
Maybe he's at his house out here? I had that checked.
The house is empty.
And it's up for sale.
The good news is that Gus won't lose his leg.
Well, he's gonna lose his job.
I can't believe he was stalling so he could live at our house.
Awfully creepy.
Yeah, not to mention expensive and just Incoming.
12:00.
I should say hello.
And 2:00.
And 5:00.
The universe is torturing me.
Three handsome men who are into you? That is so not torture.
What should I do? Listen, I don't want to overstep.
You're not.
Help me.
Cut yourself some slack.
You deserve to live happily ever after, whether that's with a prince, or a polo player, or a Raj.
And you should take all the time you need to decide what that looks like.
You're right.
Thank you.
And until then, enjoy your embarrassment of riches.
Come on.
Stop.
Stop.
Whoa.
Don't touch that.
This certainly complicates things.
For a man who was engaged just a few days ago, you certainly don't waste any time.
My people are waiting for their future queen.
Oh! We know how little you care about the board And being on a gala committee, so we hate to ask you this, but we could use a favor.
How can I help? I'll bet a hundred.
A hundred.
$100,000.
Sold to the beautiful Ms.
Houston.
Hank.
You actually thought you had Well, I texted, and you said Oh, that was you? I should go.
Well, you're already here.
Why don't you come in? __ __ _ I am quite aware of the danger, Mr.
Chen.
I was only asking because We both need to exercise caution and keep our circle small.
That is how we protect everyone.
Gus? Paige.
Welcome to your castle.
This does not look like my castle.
Gus, where's the progress? Like this.
My business partner and I got this gorgeous Turn-of-the-century banister two weeks ago, And you haven't even taken it out of the box? Antique, huh? Those take a while to install.
We have a baby coming in three months.
Oh, yeah.
I see the glow now.
- We're adopting.
- Oh, that makes more sense.
Look, we need a home to bring our daughter to, and it can't have dust, or exposed wires, Or a staircase with no banister.
I want progress.
I'm on it.
Thank you.
Two more boxes of iodine swabs should do it.
And, uh, we're going back to powder-free latex gloves.
Next order of business is, uh, next week's schedule.
So, Hank, I know you wanted those camp physicals To take place on Tuesday, there's a conflict, so they're gonna be Monday.
I'm hoping you can do those solo.
Look at you.
You're a natural.
I still can't believe you're about to have one of your own.
Our little Evan, just all grown up.
Pretty sure I've been grown up for a while, guys, - but thank you.
- I'm serious, Ev.
I'm proud of you.
I'm really excited to be an uncle.
And I'm going to be an aunt.
I mean, you know, not technically, but I am still your baby's aunt.
Accept it.
I do accept it, and I love it, and thank you so much for the practice.
Here, go to Mama.
Here you go, Sashi.
And since we're already off topic, I'm actually gonna jump Right to my post-HankMed meeting addendum.
Here you go.
A Mamaroo, a Bugaboo, and a "pooj snug?" "Puj Snug.
" Okay.
What is all this? It's a baby gift registry.
Yeah.
In the interest of time, I've assigned each of you gifts to purchase.
But Paige and I promise to look surprised.
I'm not even gonna make fun of you for this.
Well, I make no such promise.
But I'm gonna cut this short.
Raj will be here any minute, And I've got to go to a meeting with my lawyers.
"Lawyers?" Plural? - What are they all doing? - Yeah.
We're waiting for Rafa and his lawyers to make their next move.
Don't worry, I'll be fine.
You go in to the city.
Yeah? You sure? You and Jeremiah can cover me? I can.
Jeremiah's not in town.
What? Where'd he go? A staffing trip for Boris, I think.
Did you say that you have a patient in Manhattan? Yeah, I'm going with Olympia.
Houston, he's spending the weekend with her.
Do you have any idea who this woman is? Olympia Houston.
No, seriously, I'm talking about her ex-husbands.
- Nothing? - Nothing.
So these are men who have risen to the top of their fields.
Like, they've built empires, but only after marrying her.
She's a kingmaker, Henry.
King Henry has kind of a ring to it.
So I guess she proves the old "behind every great man" adage.
Let's just say we can thank Olympia Houston for the auto bailout, the Freedom Tower, And the peaceful re-annexation of Hong Kong.
Well, I'm spending the weekend with her, Not re-annexing Hong Kong.
Of course not.
It's re-annexed now.
That's what I just said.
What was I thinking, though? If you're with Olympia Houston, you can afford more than a freaking Bugaboo.
Raj! Sorry to interrupt.
Oh, perfect timing.
Sashi's ready to go.
Great to see you again, Raj.
Same here.
- Come here.
- Ah.
I honestly still can't believe after Divya jilted you like that You guys ended up friends.
Mm.
It was a surprise for us too.
Okay, I better go.
Good to see you again.
You forgot your registry.
No, I did not.
Hold up.
Wait a sec wait up.
So, friend, are we Completely alone.
Good.
I missed you this morning.
I missed you too.
Oops.
Raj? Bye.
I am so sorry I walked in on you.
Oh.
- Of course, I didn't know there was a "you.
" - Yeah.
- How long has there been A "you?" If there is a "you.
" Couple of weeks ago.
We started spending time together, But we are not ready for anyone to know yet.
Your secret is safe with me.
No! No, it It's not like it's a secret.
We just don't know what "it" is yet.
Okay, so does that mean you're not seeing that prince? Because when you were with him at the galley You seemed to be having such a good time.
I thought maybe I didn't know.
No.
I wasn't "with" with him.
It's it's complicated.
Yeah.
I should have asked.
It's really none of my business.
No, no, no.
It's okay.
I've got to go though.
Bye.
Okay.
Hello? Wait, Rafa did what? Are you sure? He's changed his mind before.
All right, I'm on my way.
Okay.
- Any more dizzy spells? - No.
- Mind if I check? - I expect no less.
Stand up, please.
Close your eyes.
And walk a few paces.
I believe I was merely fatigued, as you suggested.
Well, I'm glad you're taking it easier now.
Close.
Come back to me.
It's Evan.
Come.
Hey.
So can I speak to you privately, for one second? When I'm finished you can.
I was talking to Boris.
Oh, yeah, no problem.
You'll analyze those here? The lab will forward the results to your clinical trial doctor.
Good.
Thank you.
Anytime.
Bye, guys.
Bye-bye.
Evan.
Boris.
So I just wanted to I was surprised to hear you sent Jeremiah on an HHCR & OD business trip.
Hamptons Heritage Center for Rare and Orphan Diseases.
- Sorry.
I do that.
- Ah.
You see, he's still a HankMed doctor, So it kind of throws the schedule off When he's suddenly not around with no warning.
That's all, you know.
You're here to discuss HankMed scheduling? I I mean, I was, but I'm done, if you are.
I am.
Okay, great.
Cool, so the other thing I wanted to mention was the hospital asset tracking program I've implemented which I told you about.
It's going great.
I mean, it's really great.
It's almost finished.
There's just a little itsy bitsy issue that's come up.
You know that robotic surgery arm we have on loan from DARPA that no one knows how to use? Well, no one is gonna learn how to use it, 'cause it's missing.
It's not missing.
The Department of Defense recalled it.
Oh.
Well I'm surprised I didn't have to sign anything or, you know, administrate that.
Hmm.
Anyway, that's a huge relief, to be honest.
I thought you were going to have me disappeared or something.
No.
Not for that.
You said you had a meeting in New York, Not that it was at the UN.
Well, where else would a global health center be? - Fair point.
Fair point.
- Sorry for the side trip.
I needed to grab the materials to review, before tomorrow.
Yeah.
I know you came in for a romantic getaway, not a tour of the UN.
Hey, hey, hey.
I came for you.
Yeah, it occurs to me you are in the business of health.
Why don't you join me at the summit? Like I said, I came for the romantic getaway.
- Well, let's get to it.
- Okay.
Oh, that's Dr.
Alam Saba.
- I need to say hello.
- Okay.
He's Afghanistan's Minister of Public Health.
I've been trying to get him on board with our initiatives, But he's a tough nut to crack.
Dr.
Saba? Ms.
Houston.
Dr.
Saba, this is Dr.
Hank Lawson.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
My English is poor.
Probably better than our Pashto.
What kind of medicine are you in the practice of? Concierge.
Which is house calls, so really GP.
GP? Which is general practice.
But before that I practiced in Brooklyn, in the ER.
I was an ER doctor.
I need my interpreter.
Okay, yeah.
Me too.
Ah.
There she is.
Excuse me.
Sure.
Mina? Well, that wasn't awkward at all.
That was charmingly unsophisticated.
You can make anything sound like a compliment.
Stop! Stop! Her shoulder is dislocated.
Okay.
Hold still.
Wait, wait, wait.
Stop, stop.
Dr.
Sabah, if you'll excuse me, may I take a look? Thank you.
Hi.
Nope.
Yeah.
Okay.
It's a posterior dislocation.
We need to disengage the humeral head from the glenoid fossa.
Now, Dr.
Sabah, I need your help, okay? Can you push right here? Anterior and laterally.
Okay, listen.
This is gonna hurt, but I need to do it slowly.
Here we go.
Ah! Okay.
Thank you.
Of course.
Whew! You're gonna be okay.
How long do I have to wear this? Until I can get you a real sling.
Oh, just use that.
It's more fashionable.
Oh, well, thank you.
Then how long do I get to wear this? Two weeks.
You also want to ice your shoulder - A couple of times a day.
- Good thing you were there.
Dr.
Saba might have taken her arm off.
Oh, well, he used the right method for An anterior dislocation, which is what usually happens.
This one's uncommon.
Have you had any muscle or joint pain? No.
Okay.
Any family history of connective tissue disorders? Not that I know of.
- Any other symptoms? - I'm fine.
A little overwhelmed this past week, but otherwise fine.
- Because of the summit? - Maybe.
Since this new delegation arrived, I've had trouble concentrating.
Not what you want in an interpreter.
Why do you think that is? Dr.
Saba.
He's kind of intense.
I can see how Dr.
Saba could be intimidating.
I heard he made Putin cry once.
Twice, but I can handle him.
I have to.
Tomorrow's conference is too important.
What's it about? Finding alternatives to cooking over open fires indoors.
The smoke causes lung cancer.
A lot of those lives are in Afghanistan.
I'm supposed to be objective, but I still have family there.
Well, speaking objectively, it sounds like a very good cause.
Our soon-to-be daughter and her mother are healthy.
Dr.
Neil called her directly, and I think they liked each other, so long story short, Elan agreed to move to the Hamptons for her last month of pregnancy.
And yes, before you ask, the house will be ready.
- You sure about that? - Positive.
'Cause I think paint actually dries faster than Gus puts it on.
Well, I gave him a talking to, and he knows the drill now, And he was putting up the banister when I left, so Doesn't surprise me at all.
You do that.
- Do what? - You get the job done.
You take the bull by the horns, and your bull actually listens.
Boris isn't listening? I don't know, I've never worked for a mysterious gazillionaire before.
I just I don't know how to do it.
Maybe there's no right way.
He's sending Jeremiah to do staffing.
That's my job.
He's not even keeping me in the loop.
Like, he's never been an over-sharer, but I just think he doesn't trust me.
Of course he trusts you.
He picked you, didn't he? I just want him to think I'm the best hospital administrator there ever was.
Ever.
Is that too much to ask? No.
So you know what you do? You take Boris by the horns.
Finish that asset tracking.
Continue to update the network infrastructure.
Show him what you're capable of.
Boris will see that he chose the right man.
I promise.
Are you disappointed we missed our dinner reservation? Absolutely not.
Got a chance to see you in action.
Besides, this is more romantic.
I couldn't agree more.
You know, you really impressed Dr.
Saba today, And he is not easily impressed.
Plus, you rallied Mina's spirits.
She opened up to you right away.
It's all part of the job.
No.
I have many doctors.
I open up to none.
You you put people at ease.
You think outside the box.
I think you should expand your horizons.
What do you mean? Well, I happen to know that the deputy director of the World Health Organization is leaving his post soon.
I could get your name on the short list.
- Yeah? - Mm-hmm.
Deputy director.
I wouldn't know the first thing about a job like that.
Oh, you know more than you think.
Come to the conference tomorrow, just to observe.
I know you want to check on Mina, anyway.
This morning my brother was joking about, well, he called you a kingmaker.
Well, deputy director is a far cry from king, Hank.
Baby steps.
- Baby steps.
- Mm-hmm.
So this is what you do? You make men into projects? I don't make men extraordinary.
I am attracted to extraordinary men.
Well, I hate to tell you, But I may not be ambitious enough for you.
At least you didn't say "old enough.
" Never.
Thank you.
I give the floor to the distinguished delegate from Afghanistan, Dr.
Alam Saba.
Dr.
Lawson.
You have all provided interesting suggestions.
Actually, we haven't heard from you, Dr.
Lawson.
You are a general practice doctor.
Thank you.
Hello.
So I'm not sure what all the factors are, But I guess if I were the doctor on the scene dealing with smoke inhalation, I'd want chest x-rays, supplemental oxygen, corticosteroids.
Have you considered ventilating the room? Finally, someone thinking differently.
I had the same idea.
Villagers should begin testing prototypes right away.
We need not reinvent the wheel.
I apologize.
My interpreter is daydreaming.
No, she's having a seizure.
But wouldn't I know if I had a seizure? There are many kinds.
What you had was an absence seizure.
A momentary lapse of awareness.
Why did I have it? They're caused by sudden electrical charges in your brain, and this is not the first one.
You said you were having trouble concentrating, recently.
They're all seizures? I think so, and I also think you had one yesterday, which would explain your rare shoulder dislocation.
It wasn't the cab pulling your arm.
You tensed your body so much that you popped the bone out of the socket.
But why now? Could be reflex epilepsy.
It's a convulsive disorder where a certain trigger causes seizures.
Like what? Well, triggers can be sounds you hear, things you feel, things you see.
Some people react to flashing lights, a particular song, even bathing could be a trigger.
What triggered me? Well, we'll know more when we get you to the hospital.
But I feel fine now, And the committee will be back from break soon.
Are there no other Pashto interpreters? Not today.
I wouldn't want to endanger Mina's health, but it did take six months to pull this conference together.
Lives are at stake.
Right now I'm focused on your life.
Are these sessions recorded? Yeah, Jorge takes care of our technical equipment.
Can he play them back? There's nothing he can't do.
Jorge.
Come here.
What do you need, Mina? Jorge, is it possible for you to play back Just the last 30 seconds of the meeting? - Sure.
- Great.
I'm gonna see if we can trigger another seizure.
Now, I'll have this Ativan ready to stop it, if I need to, but I want to return to exactly what was happening When you last seized.
Okay.
We're ready.
That does not look like a momentary lapse.
No, it doesn't.
Okay.
One more second.
It happened again? I think something in Dr.
Saba's voice is a trigger for you.
It would explain why your recent lapses in concentration started when he arrived.
Yesterday, when you dislocated your shoulder, Dr.
Saba was calling your name, and today you were interpreting for him.
One person's voice? So I'm gonna seize every time he talks? Well, medication should help to control it, And Dr.
Saba isn't a permanent delegate, right? But I can't finish this conference.
I'm not much use if I can't tolerate the voice of the man I'm here to interpret.
It's all right.
We can reschedule.
Yeah, in another six months.
Maybe you won't have to.
Jorge, I understand from a reliable source that there is nothing you can't do.
Installing vents will save lives in the interim.
In addition, it will create jobs and be cost-effective.
We will work with existing international aid dollars to increase the number of households testing prototypes.
Divya? What are you doing here, Rafa? I signed the papers.
Did you really sign them? The full custody agreement? Yes.
Just like that.
After everything you've put me through this past month? I'm sorry.
One minute you're trying to take Sashi away from me, And then out of the blue you agree to give me full custody, And now you are outside my lawyer's office.
What happened? You.
Your voice message.
I was furious.
You were passionate.
Passionate and strong.
The qualities I fell in love with.
The qualities I want my daughter to have.
Does your mother want Sashi to be like me? I should not have let her take control.
I should have called sooner.
- How is Sashi? - She's happy.
Could I see her? The agreement allows for scheduled visits.
How about now? She's napping for another hour.
Well, we could grab a drink while we wait.
You still like mojitos? Really? After all we've been through? Especially after all we've been through.
How about a bottle? It's Sashi's dinner.
You can join us.
I'd like that.
Hey, what's with the model? Are we planning some renovations? A long-term stratagem.
Nothing pressing.
Huh.
Well, just so you know, I expected the asset tracking report to be ready today, but it's not.
It's I don't know.
Some kind of delay, but I will get to the bottom of it first thing tomorrow.
- I have it.
- You have it? Yeah.
I asked them to deliver it directly to me.
You have too much on your plate, as it is.
Actually, I excel with a full plate, So heap it on.
Seriously, is that it? - How does it look? - Good.
Nothing of concern.
So, I need you focused on the integrated computer systems.
That is a priority, yeah? The computer systems.
Okay.
Well, just in terms of my workload, I want you to know I feel very confident that I can han Ready with the presentation, sir.
I can come with you, if you want.
No.
Thank you.
Thank you for joining us, We're very excited to show you what we have.
We took all of your suggestions and considerations.
Let's sit and take a look.
What? What the hell? Ow.
Make sure I see that in the reports analyzed.
- Sir? - Yeah? - One last thing.
- Oh.
And that's your copy.
You were saying? Oh, hello.
Good.
You're still here.
Wow, it is really coming along.
- No, it's not.
- No, it's not.
Sorry.
But here.
I bought you this.
It wasn't on your registry, but I cannot live without mine.
Oh, thank you.
I appreciate it.
And I wanted to say sorry for how short I was with you yesterday.
I couldn't answer your questions because, frankly, I don't know the answers.
Oh, you don't have to.
I mean, I know that things are better than ever with Raj, without the family pressure.
But then this prince I mean, this actual prince just drops into my life.
To make things more confusing, Rafa shows up.
Wait, wait.
Rafa's back in the picture? Back in the Hamptons.
Definitely not back in the picture.
See, the thing is, I don't have a lot of experience dating.
It's basically been an almost arranged marriage and then Rafa, which turned out beautifully, because I got Sashi, But I wasn't exactly thinking clearly with him.
Am I shutting myself off from taking a risk with another man because of how that ended? Oh, God, or am I afraid to commit to Raj because it was my parents who picked him in the first place? I don't want to make a safe choice.
Nor do I want to make a foolish one.
Wow, that's a lot to think about.
The thing is I've been thinking about it so much.
I mean, it's been so inside my head.
You know, it feels good to say it out loud.
Thank you.
Gus? What are you - Are you okay? - No, he's not.
Ambulance is on the way.
Good.
Paige, I need you to put some gloves on.
I'm gonna need your help.
Is that my bone? Yes, we need to reduce it now.
- Reduce it? - Pop the bone back in.
But don't I need anesthesia? Gus, you have no pulse in your foot.
If we don't do this now, you could lose your leg.
Okay.
I need that more.
Paige, pull open the skin.
Hold on tight.
All right, Gus.
Take a deep breath.
One, two.
It worked.
It worked.
All right, we'll splint it now.
We need some sticks a couple of feet long.
Got it.
You okay, Gus? - What else do you need? - Some towels.
Clean towels to soak in saline, so we can protect the wound.
Uh I don't have any towels here or anything clean, for that matter.
Actually, check the nursery.
Next to the microwave.
There's a microwave? Uh-huh.
Okay, great.
Thank you.
- So that was the hospital.
- How's Mina? The doctors did an EEG and confirmed her reflex epilepsy.
They've started her on anti-seizure meds.
- She should be fine.
- Oh, good.
We need women like her at the UN.
Not to mention men like you.
You know, your input really brought Dr.
Saba around.
Ah, I just mentioned vents.
Using resources at hand to save people's lives.
Isn't that what you always do? Yeah.
Yeah, I guess so.
You could be saving people you don't even know a million at a time.
You're laying it on a little thick, but I admit it was fun.
So does that mean you're considering the position at the World Health Organization? Look, I'm grateful for this experience, and the offer is hard to pass up.
But you're going to.
I'm just not a suit and tie guy.
I like my simple life in the Hamptons.
That's who I am, and I understand.
I understand you're a woman who likes a bigger stage.
Yeah, that's who I am.
I'm leaving for Switzerland this afternoon.
A meeting for global gender parity.
And tomorrow I have a full day of camp physicals.
Well, I hope our paths cross again when I return to the Hamptons.
Me too.
Your call sounded frantic.
What's up? Boris is up to something.
Okay.
What's he doing now? Trading arms to the Chinese.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Boris may be a lot of things, But I doubt he's selling weapons to a foreign superpower.
Not weapons well, maybe weapons, actually.
No.
I'm talking about arms.
- Like, robotic arms.
- Oh And there was this device in his office, I put my finger in it, it bit me.
Okay, you sound like an insane person.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
I do? What about this mysterious Jeremiah trip then? Staffing's my job.
Why would Boris send him to do it? Okay, now you sound jealous.
What? You're not listening Okay, the report.
I saw this report.
Even though Boris tried to hide it from me, I saw it.
There's all this equipment that's just gone missing.
Like, an entire operating room.
Missing or misplaced? I mean, it's a huge hospital.
You can't keep track of every single thing.
That's what I'm trying to I can't keep track of anything.
He took the whole project away from me.
Ev, listen to me.
Come here.
I know how much you want to impress Boris, okay? But I think you're letting your insecurity get the better of you.
Just let it go.
You're absolutely right.
- I know.
- Letting it go.
Okay, okay, good.
I'm gonna get myself a coffee.
Kuester, Kuester, Kuester.
Kuester Gotcha.
309.
Hank.
Hey, Boris.
What can I do for you? Jeremiah came to see me a few days ago.
- He was quite distraught.
- Why? He'd made a rather large purchasing error for the lab.
He wanted to write a personal check to cover it, And I assured him that was unnecessary, but still, he seemed anxious.
I offered to let him stay at one of my country homes.
Oh.
He told us he was on a trip for you.
Yeah, that has come to my attention.
Huh.
Well, I don't know why he lied to us, But if he needs time away He never arrived, Hank.
Maybe he's at his house out here? I had that checked.
The house is empty.
And it's up for sale.
The good news is that Gus won't lose his leg.
Well, he's gonna lose his job.
I can't believe he was stalling so he could live at our house.
Awfully creepy.
Yeah, not to mention expensive and just Incoming.
12:00.
I should say hello.
And 2:00.
And 5:00.
The universe is torturing me.
Three handsome men who are into you? That is so not torture.
What should I do? Listen, I don't want to overstep.
You're not.
Help me.
Cut yourself some slack.
You deserve to live happily ever after, whether that's with a prince, or a polo player, or a Raj.
And you should take all the time you need to decide what that looks like.
You're right.
Thank you.
And until then, enjoy your embarrassment of riches.
Come on.
Stop.
Stop.
Whoa.
Don't touch that.
This certainly complicates things.
