MEREDITH: A med school professor
once told me the hardest

is knowing when to abandon a repair

FEMALE NEWS ANCHOR:
Firefighters are scrambling
to contain this wildfire,
the state's largest in recent history.
Mandatory evacuation
orders have been issued
for residents in Fall City
and the surrounding areas.
Eastbound lanes are closed on I-90

we'll take it out to
protect the rest of the body.
Same with the section
of colon or small bowel.
The human body can survive

Oh. Congratulations, Skywalker.
Hey, you owe me 20 bucks.
I bet that you'd be gone

I'll give you 20 bucks to be gone now.

Dorian. What are you doing here?
They needed my room,
too many patients from the fire.

- No worries.
A bed opened at the

I'm hoping I won't be here much longer.
Well, you've obviously
never been discharged

Okay. So what are you suggesting?
We present yesterday's findings.
The work speaks for itself.
She cannot deny that with a power move.
When you have all the power,
I think it's just called a move.
Well, we have moves, too.

Diagnosed at 17.
I was in a car accident a few years ago.
Spent a month in a
coma, and when I woke up,
I couldn't remember my parents,
my cat, or medicine.
Well, now I'm back in pharmacy
school and learning it all again.
As if it wasn't hard
enough the first time.
Yeah, thank God I kept my flashcards.
Alright, I'm going to run some labs,
uh, order a chest X-ray,
and nebulizer treatment.
I'll be right back.
And while we don't yet
understand the causality,
there is a clear correlation.
So you found a
correlation between things
I asked you not to study.
Well, we haven't
actually spoken about it.
Things you said to my face
you would stop researching.
We are this close to being able to prove
that Alzheimer's could be preventable.
You have to admit that's a game-changer.
I don't have to admit anything.
You went behind my back using my money,
two of my best and formerly
most trusted surgeons.
Give me one good reason
I shouldn't just end
your career right now.
I'll give you 6.7 million reasons.
That's the amount of Americans
living with Alzheimer's today.
And there's another half a million
that will be diagnosed by year's end.
And for every man that suffers,
two women suffer.
Think about what this could
mean for their children,
for their grandchildren
if we could diagnose them
before symptoms start,
or if we could tell them
that they're predisposed
to this disease.
I am sorry that I went behind your back.
I honestly never did intend
to use Fox Foundation funds.
But we're here now.
Don't you want to be on the
forefront of fighting this?

You're right. This changes everything.
Fox Foundation should
be leading the way.
Would $5 million help?

longitudinal study.
Great. Okay. So I would

insufferable know-it-all,

Thank you for standing up for me.
That might have been my last surgery.
Or not. You did save a firefighter.
Yeah. Is that enough to
change Catherine's mind?
- Hm.
- Oh!
[SIGHS] I just blew up my life.
- Meredith and I published.
- Definitely not enough.
- So, how are you feeling?
- Mm.
Strangely calm for being unemployed.

Not every gamble pays

It was great. It was simple. I loved it.

count for something.
Oh, we're human.
We can't avoid mistakes.
What's important is
learning not to repeat them.
