Grey's Anatomy s21e11 Episode Script

1
One door closing ♪
[GREY] When a patient
receives a terminal diagnosis,
a clock starts.
In an instant, the
future becomes finite.
Doctors do their best to
predict life expectancy
based on median survival,
the period of time after diagnosis
when half of patients with
the disease are still alive.
But statistics can't tell you if
you'll host Thanksgiving dinner
- [SIGHS]
- or attend your grandkids' recital.
Evynn has just lost her damn mind.
Who the hell does she think she is?
Your protégé.
This is not the time for you
to throw that up in my face.
Read the room.
I need to inform the
transplant committee.
Alzheimer's is not a
contraindication to transplant.
[GREY] I understand that, but they
approved her under false pretenses.
They thought the dementia
was encephalopathy.
[SIGHS] Okay. Uh, Tasha's
being moved back to her room,
and we've connected the liver to
a normothermic perfusion machine.
Buys us some time to figure
this out, but not much.
I mean, you must be able
to explain the situation
to the transplant committee, yes?
I vouched for Tasha
once. I can't do it again.
Well, they factor in
life expectancy as well.
Yes, of course I know that.
Someone without Alzheimer's would
live much longer with that liver.
I'm sorry, we can't assume that.
I mean, people are getting it
earlier and earlier, especially women.
You think they should all be denied
life-saving transplants? I don't.
Meredith's right.
We'll tell the committee.
They deserve to know.
I'll tell them myself.
[GREY] You're left to wonder,
how is it possible to feel alive
when science tells you you're dying?
Hanging on ♪
- [PHONE CHIMES]
- Sunny-side up, right?
Uh, yes, please.
[PHONE CHIMES, BUZZES]
Wow. Someone is really
trying to get ahold of you.
It's Dave. He's having a
hard time with the breakup.
[SIGHS] I honestly feel bad for him.
I know what it's like to lose you.
[PHONE CHIMES]
[GRIFFITH] Morning.
Oh, something smells good.
Pancakes and eggs. Oh, man, you
can stay as long as you like.
You don't live here.
- [KWAN] Molly? Molly!
- [ADAMS] She's seizing.
[GRIFFITH] We got you, Molly.
Catherine told me to make my
board presentation engaging.
It's about the hospital's endowment.
My eyes glaze over
just thinking about it.
- Who's that?
- [STAMMERS] Nora Young.
Said she's been doing the
cardio exercises you gave her,
and she was able to
jog a full mile today.
Hmm. Good for her.
I wish all of my patients were
that diligent about their recovery.
- Go, Union!
- Hurry, let's go this way!
- Oh, here we go.
- Washington Union scavenger hunts.
Every year, lacerations, broken bones
Memories that last a lifetime,
bonds that can't be broken.
[CHUCKLES] Third place
finishes that still sting?
We were robbed.
There must be a few items on the
list in the hospital this year.
Mmm. So college students
are here to steal stuff.
Hey, they're here to win.
Or cause me a security nightmare.
- Wha [GROANS]
- [PERSON] Help! Help!
- Come on, let's go.
- Yeah. [SIGHS]
- She needs help.
- Yeah, she just collapsed.
- Does she have any medical conditions?
- I don't think so.
[ALTMAN] Okay, let's get her [GRUNTS]
- [PERSON CHUCKLES]
- Oh! Security!
- [GROANS] We're gonna need a gurney.
- [HUNT] Yeah.
- Feeling better. Gotta go.
- Hey
[LAUGHING]
I guess my presentation's
gonna have to wait. [SIGHS]
Y'all got this!
- [KNOCKS ON DOOR]
- Bailey, you wanted to see me?
- [BAILEY SIGHS]
- What's the look? Am I in trouble?
I am reading resident evaluations.
- Was I supposed to turn something in?
- No.
Uh, these are specific to the resident
who is still in a trial period.
- The one I am married to.
- Oh.
[BAILEY SIGHS]
From the look on your face, I take
it they're not what you'd hoped.
I've been trying to stay out of his way,
so I haven't supervised him directly,
and therefore, don't know how
to evaluate his evaluations.
Are you asking for my advice?
[STAMMERS, SIGHS] So Ben is
supposed to be on your service.
I wanted to ask if we
can swap residents today.
- Oh. Oh, yes. Of course. Yes. Yes.
- Okay.
Did you not want him on your service?
I do not have good advice about
working with family. [CHUCKLES]
No. [CHUCKLES] No.
[MILLIN] "Critical incision
along the pericardium
to release the tamponade"
Rob's hosting intern
trivia tonight at Joe's.
- You wanna go?
- Uh, will we have to be on the same team?
I am really good at trivia.
I will mop the floor
with the other teams.
Yeah. Some of the guys still
don't talk to me after last time.
Oh. Millin?
Um, I'm on cardio all day,
and then I am going home.
Warren, you're on
Shepherd's service, right?
I was Uh
I have a friend who
needs a neuro consult.
Well, page neurology.
I was hoping you could have
Shepherd take a look at her.
- [STAMMERS]
- She had a grand mal seizure this morning.
Griffith, um, Dr. Marsh needs an intern
upstairs to monitor
a transplant patient.
Warren, you're on my service now.
And, Adams, you are with Shepherd.
That's a nice surprise. Maybe
we can grab lunch or something?
I am not your wife today.
I am your attending.
All right then. Tell
me where you need me.
[SIGHS] I can't ask my aunt
to squeeze Molly in today.
Her schedule's insane.
- Can't you just go to the ER?
- But you're on neurosurgery. I
You can do a workup
yourself. I can help.
[SIGHS]
If we get caught, I'm
throwing you under the bus.
Hi, Lisa, I'm Dr. Bailey.
This is Dr. Warren.
Go ahead.
Oh, uh, Lisa Saito, 63,
admitted for jaundice
and abdominal pain from
acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.
[BAILEY] Mm-hmm.
- Do you mind if we examine you?
- Oh, please.
Doc [SIGHS] I've been
taking acetaminophen for years.
I'm-I'm a high school librarian,
so shelving books does
a number on my back.
Sure it's not the high school
students hurting your back?
- I've got one that hurts mine.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
No, they're keeping me young.
Yesterday, I helped a sophomore
with her biography on Jackie O.
And then I led a
student podcasting club.
Yeah, we're, uh, cracking
a cold case this season.
Well, sounds like rewarding
work. Take a deep breath for me.
[INHALES]
Oh [SIGHS]
I wish my back loved it as much as I do.
We were just moving some
encyclopedias back into storage.
No one uses them anymore.
I went and bought some extra-strength
caplets for the extra pain.
Uh, I didn't realize that
the doses were different.
Uh, it's an easy mistake.
So we are giving you medicine to
prevent more damage to the liver,
and we'll monitor you
and see if it recovers.
- What if it doesn't?
- Let's not worry about that yet.
Okay, you can lay back now.
- Okay.
- All right.
- All right, Dr. Warren.
- Mm-hmm.
Uh, let's get a repeat
acetaminophen level, ALT,
- AST, potassium
- You can just say CMP.
And INR. Order exactly what I asked
for and get a rush on the labs.
[GRIFFITH] Tasha Lawson, 41, diagnosed
with primary sclerosing cholangitis
and Alzheimer's disease.
Status post-stent for biliary stricture.
On lactulose for liver failure
while waiting for a transplant.
I can't stay. I have to go to class.
Have you seen my bag?
- Where are my things?
- Yo, yo, yo. T. T. T.
- What's going
- It's okay.
We rescheduled it. We can stay.
- Are you sure?
- Yes, I promise.
Just breathe.
- I'll be right back, okay?
- Okay.
Does Dr. Fox know
there's a liver in a box
somewhere that could
save my wife's life?
[GREY] She knows.
She hasn't responded to my texts.
Where is she?
Where is she?
She's pretty upset on how
you handled all of this.
I didn't have a choice.
We're talking about my wife's life here.
Withholding medical history is unfair
to other people on the transplant list.
What about Alzheimer's is fair?
Well, look, as Tasha's
transplant surgeon,
I'm gonna strongly recommend to
the committee that we proceed.
- [SIGHS] Thank you.
- [SIGHS]
At least one of you is
fighting for your patient.
[MARSH] Meredith.
Hey, Meredith. Wait.
Who are you?
Visitors.
Uh, we're just, uh, looking
for this. [CLEARS THROAT]
[MARSH] Okay.
I know what you're doing.
I just followed you into a closet.
I have no idea what I'm doing.
When you look at Tasha, you
see a possible future me.
I don't need saving.
Okay. First of all, not
everything is about you.
And have you considered,
even for a second,
that someone may have gotten this wrong?
- She is 41 years old.
- That doesn't mean it isn't Alzheimer's.
Okay, that's fine. All I'm saying is,
let's do our own neuro workup
before she's denied
life-saving treatment
based on another hospital's diagnosis.
I wanna talk to Shepherd.
You don't trust that I
know what this looks like?
- This is my life's work.
- Yeah, and transplants are mine.
Okay. Well, see, the infection
is spreading to the mediastinum.
- Mm-hmm.
- What's the plan?
Broad-spectrum antibiotics
and blood cultures.
Yes, good. Place the order.
[PHONE CHIMES]
"Do not allow unauthorized
persons into secure areas."
Must be the scavenger hunt.
What an epic waste of time.
[CHUCKLES] Okay, you didn't do
stupid stuff like that in college?
Organized forced fun, not my thing.
"Work hard, play harder."
That was my motto.
My motto was "Work hard
so you don't have to live
- with your hippie parents until you're 30."
- [CHUCKLES]
[STUDENT] Crap, security!
Cameron, hide in here.
Oh, hey, hey. This thing's on.
- [YELLING]
- Cameron! Oh, my God!
- Oh, my God.
- We need help in here!
Wait, don't turn it off until we
can brace him. Page trauma right now.
- [NDUGU] Stay calm. I got you.
- [GROANING]
- Push the magnet stop.
- [FRIEND] Please, help him!
- [PERSON GROANING]
- Oh. Oh.
- [GROANS]
- [NDUGU] Let's lay him down.
Nice and easy.
[NDUGU] We need a C-collar, now.
- What just happened?
- [NDUGU] Let's take care of your friend,
and then we'll go over
physics 101. What's your name?
Not Teddy Altman.
- It's Cameron.
- Andrea, are you hurt?
- I'm fine. I'm worried about you.
- Any neck pain, Cameron?
Oh, no, my left side hurts and my chest.
- This is what you call fun?
- What do we got?
He brought a metal IV
pole into the MRI room.
The magnet pulled in the pole
and pinned him at the midline.
Abdominal bruising. Let's get
him to a trauma room for an exam.
- On my count, ready? One. Two. Three.
- [ALL GROAN]
- [CAMERON STRAINS]
- Is he gonna be okay?
Don't worry about me.
You have to go on. Finish the hunt.
Is there some kind of big
cash prize or something?
- Just pride and glory.
- Wait. You went to Washington Union?
- Yeah. Third place in my senior year.
- [PHONE CHIMES]
The last clue. "Find and
retrieve the identifier
for something that looks
like itself but no longer is."
- Go.
- Okay.
[HUNT] Let's go.
[CHUCKLES]
- Okay.
- [ANDREA] Dev, let's go this way.
[SIGHS] Okay. I'm gonna go give
security a heads up on that.
But first, can you inform C
that we'll likely head there
right after trauma?
- Sure, Dr. Hunt.
- [HUNT CLEARS THROAT]
Doesn't hurt to give them a
little head start, right? [CHUCKLES]
You're sure we won't get in trouble?
Oh, we might, but you'll be fine.
Don't worry about it.
- Let me help you here.
- Oh.
There you go.
[SIGHS] Hi, I'm Dr. Kwan.
Molly.
[CHUCKLES]
Yeah. I'm gonna jump ahead.
Uh, Molly, can you tell
me about your seizures?
Um, I've had them since the
accident, a little over four years.
You've had grand mal
seizures for four years?
On and off. [STAMMERS] Some meds work
for a while, but eventually they stop.
Right now I'm on phenytoin, but I
guess that's not working anymore either.
I'm so sorry. I had no idea.
Okay, we'll run an EEG and see if
we can classify your seizure activity
and go from there, all right?
Between her multiple
scans, mental status exam,
and previous clinical
findings and tests,
I have no reason to say it's
anything other than Alzheimer's.
Mmm. Tasha is the youngest
person I've seen with it.
- It happens.
- Yeah, it shouldn't.
No, but younger
patients do hold clues to
the disease that we
didn't even know existed.
Maybe we will find some. [SIGHS]
If Meredith and I ever
retain funding again.
Yes. Okay, thank you for
the consult. I appreciate it.
[SIGHS]
A scavenger hunt kid stole my badge
and I haven't had time to get a new one.
Thank you.
Cass? What are you doing here,
and how did you get in here?
I kept this from when I filled
in here. Don't tell the Chief.
- I think she'd give you a pass.
- [CHUCKLES]
I had the day off and thought,
"Where can I go for harsh
lighting and free coffee?"
David's getting a colonoscopy,
which is its own kind of scavenger hunt.
Well, I hope his is less eventful
than the one I'm dealing with.
Between kids stealing stuff
and crashing into MRI machines,
somehow I have to find the time
to make a slideshow about
the hospital's endowment.
I did one last week
for my sixth grader's biology
class on metamorphosis.
- Got an A-plus.
- Congrats. You wanna make mine?
- Sure, I love slideshows.
- I was joking.
I'm not. Catch me up to speed.
I'll make you the best
one you've ever seen.
Really? Thank you so much.
You-you can work from my office.
The coffee's so much better.
[CHUCKLES]
Can we use your badge?
Keep it. You need it more than I do.
- Uh, Lisa's labs are up.
- Oh. [STAMMERS]
- No, no, no.
- I ordered exactly what you asked.
- Look, her transaminases quadrupled.
- Yeah.
Oh, and her INR doubled from
her last lab draw. Damn it.
[LISA] I don't want this!
[NURSE] Calm down, Ms. Saito,
I'm just trying to help you.
I was just trying to give her mucomyst.
I don't want that. Get it away from me.
- What are you doing here?
- Well, we're trying to help you, Lisa.
- No. Why are you keeping me right now?
- No, no.
[LISA STRAINS]
I have to go. I need to go! I
[VOMITS, COUGHS]
- She's encephalopathic.
- That happened fast.
Okay, so we need to get her to the ICU.
Start her on IV mucomyst.
Uh, consult nephrology
for possible dialysis. Oh!
And get UNOS on my phone.
Okay. Okay.
You're okay.
Uh-huh. Yes, status 1A.
[STAMMERS]
Y-Y-Yes.
Oh. [STAMMERS] Okay
Yes, we're interested. Yes, thank you.
UNOS says there's a
possible match for Lisa.
- Now?
- No, in this hospital.
She should go to Vegas with those odds.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah. Well, I mean,
the liver isn't hers yet.
There's still some deliberating
- Get her chart and tell Marsh.
- Will do.
- Meredith.
- Hi.
Hey, I heard that you
and Marsh were here.
[STAMMERS] I was hoping to speak
to him about a liver transplant.
We're still waiting for
the committee to decide
whether to allocate the
liver to another patient.
[STAMMERS] Excuse me?
You're talking about Catherine's
friend who needs the liver transplant?
No. [STAMMERS]
- Oh, you You know
- Yeah, cancel Vegas.
She may not get it. There was a
big mix-up with her medical history.
The committee should make their
decision soon. They're meeting now.
Lisa needs that liver. Should
we talk to the committee?
[CHUCKLES] About Grey's patient
who's Catherine Fox's friend?
No, that is not our business.
It's the committee's decision.
You get Lisa settled in the ICU.
Well, am I broken beyond repair?
Uh, there's definitely
increased delta wave activity,
and it looks like sharp
wave complexes in the region.
- Even when I'm not seizing?
- Well, it's like an earthquake.
There's seismic activity
all the time, but
[SIGHS] you only feel the big ones.
So what do we do about it?
Uh, we could try
adjusting your medication.
Hmm. We should talk to
her neurologist first.
You're supposed to be
updating my post-op notes.
And I don't know where
you're supposed to be,
but it is definitely not here.
Are you running an EEG?
This is Molly.
She had a grand mal
seizure this morning.
- Hi.
- Is she a patient?
Who is her doctor?
- Uh
- We are.
Both of you, follow me.
Now.
It's okay.
[SIGHS]
This is my department. You are interns.
Do you know what this looks like?
- I'm sorry. We just thought
- When you sneak patients in,
put them in the farthest
room from the nurses' station,
otherwise you are begging to be caught.
Yeah. We'll be more careful next time.
Uh, he means there won't be a next time.
[SHEPHERD SIGHS]
I thought you were slammed today.
Do you want my help or not?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
Uh, still no decision about the liver?
No, not yet. [SIGHS]
No. If they don't decide soon,
the liver won't be viable anymore,
- and then no one's gonna get it.
- [SIGHS]
- What
- Oh. [CLEARS THROAT]
[BAILEY] I told you to leave that alone.
I just volunteered to answer any
questions the committee might have
- about Lisa's case.
- You just volunteered.
Yeah.
- Anything?
- [WEBBER] No, we're still waiting.
Warren might know something.
Apparently he was
just speaking with them.
I'm sorry, how did you know
the committee was meeting?
- Well, I
- I told them.
It's not exactly a secret.
The liver [SIGHS]
will go to Lisa Saito.
[BAILEY] What? Okay
Sorry.
[MARSH] You know what?
I just don't get it.
You've made a career out of
finding your ways around protocols.
- I don't get it.
- It was the ethical thing to do.
Okay, well then you can go tell Evynn
her wife's not getting the liver.
[CHUCKLES]
Hey. How's he doing?
Uh, still waiting on the scans,
and I'm trying to crack this clue.
"The identifier is something that
looks like itself but no longer is."
A portable X-ray machine?
You think the people
that made these clues
know there's a portable X-ray machine?
My sophomore year there was
a pleur-evac on the list.
Millin, what do you think?
[CAMERON] Has anyone seen Andrea?
She really wants to win this thing.
[MILLIN] Glad she has
goals, and I don't play.
- The scans are up.
- Hmm.
Yeah, he has a grade three
splenic lac with active extrava.
Hemodynamically stable.
All right, Millin, let's get
him to the IR suite to embolize.
- All right.
- Looks like itself but no longer is.
An ID badge. No, that's too easy. Right?
That liver was hers.
She was on the OR table.
Because you didn't tell
us all the information.
I also didn't tell you
she loves animal crackers,
the old-school kind in
the box with the handle.
Or that she's seen every episode
of Gossip Girl at least twice.
Or that she talked to her dad
every night on the way home
until she had to stop working
because of the Alzheimer's.
- I understand why you're upset.
- I don't think you do.
You're so focused on your research,
you've forgotten about
the people living with it.
- That's not true.
- You helped hand her a death sentence.
Evynn, these lights are hurting my eyes.
- When are we going home?
- [EVYNN] Soon, babe. Soon.
You said we were gonna
go home soon already.
- I don't wanna be here anymore.
- Me either.
You do know it wasn't my decision?
[EVYNN] Whatever helps
you sleep at night.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Any news from the team?
I didn't feel the need to check.
So, Cameron, the risks of the
embolization include bleeding,
- infection and kidney damage.
- Signed.
And we can also call your girlfriend
and give her an update if you'd like.
Andrea? She's just my roommate.
Is there a reason you
thought she was my girlfriend?
I didn't seem, like, in love
with her or something, did I?
I-I was really focusing
on your injuries.
Oh, it's obvious, isn't it? Crap.
This is bad. Do you think she knows?
The only way to know
for sure is to tell her.
Is it? She's the roommate, friend.
You know, it's kind of risky.
You and Altman were friends
before you got together, right?
Yeah, we were friends for 20
years before we got together.
That's my entire life. [CHUCKLES]
I don't wanna wait that long.
You could always join the rest
of us who think that love sucks.
[NDUGU] Take your shot, man.
Just be prepared for it to,
you know, not go your way.
I'm gonna do it.
- Can I borrow your phone?
- No.
- Oh, hey. Don't move.
- [CAMERON] All right. [GRUNTS]
- Hey.
- I'll tell you what, we'll find Andrea.
We'll bring her to you
before the procedure, okay?
Okay.
Be right back.
Oh, don't mind me. Just saving your ass.
Oh, I owe you, seriously.
- Feel free to gift me a spa day.
- [CHUCKLES]
- You still swamped?
- Yeah.
The the kid who crashed
into the MRI needs surgery.
I can't decide if I'm
more upset about that
or the fact that I am
currently out an MRI machine
until we pay $50,000 in repairs.
They had to push the red button.
I have always wanted to
push that button. [CHUCKLES]
How is it that you are always here
when this hospital is falling apart?
I've seen hospitals
that are falling apart.
I work in one of them.
This place is great.
- Flattery will get you two spa days.
- I only need the one.
You should give yourself the
other one. You deserve it.
It's, um, been a little quiet.
I am gonna go check on security.
Thank you again.
It's my pleasure.
How do you know Molly?
I'll let Kwan take this one.
We were engaged. Now I don't know.
[SHEPHERD] Molly, you did great.
Why don't you go ahead and get her out?
Yeah.
All right, you see how it is
lighting up in the hippocampus?
- That is temporal lobe epilepsy.
- [ADAMS] Can you help her?
Oh, I can try. It doesn't always work.
Let's go.
Molly, the focus of your seizure
activity is coming from the hippocampus.
That coupled with your
developed tolerance to drugs
makes me think that
surgery is your best bet.
[KWAN] Deep brain stimulation?
I've had quite a bit of success
with DBS in epilepsy patients.
I'm-I'm sorry. Um
I'm not interested. I don't
want any more surgeries.
You'd rather live with
debilitating seizures?
Well, I have been living
with them for years.
And yes, they can be terrifying,
but you don't know what it's like
to have entire years of
your life just disappear.
And I can't start over. I can't.
- That's not going to happen.
- Dr. Kwan.
Molly, You can't let your fears
get in the way of your future.
Dr. Kwan, why don't you wait
outside? We will finish with Molly.
I'm not asking.
Bailey, just making sure
you saw the graft on the
on the donor's CT.
Uh, the distance between the
portal vein and IVC. Yeah, I saw it.
Okay, good.
I'm sorry that your patient
isn't getting a liver.
No, no, no. You did nothing wrong.
- Good luck with Lisa's transplant.
- Mkay.
Griffith, did you finish
Tasha's discharge papers?
I need to go over them with Evynn,
but I think she went to the cafeteria.
So, uh, Tasha doesn't know?
Tasha kept saying she
went to lunch with Reggie.
Extrapolated the rest.
- And who's Reggie?
- No idea. It could be you.
Yes.
Dr. Marsh, how is Dr. Grey's
research going?
They're looking for more funding.
- Really hope they find it.
- Yeah.
My grandmother has Alzheimer's.
I'm sorry. How advanced is she?
Just moved her into a
memory care facility.
- Does she like it?
- She has a friend named Isaac.
- She loves the coffee cake.
- [CHUCKLES]
Yeah, she's happy.
That could change any day,
but we'll cross that bridge
when we get to it. Thank you.
- I'll print Tasha's paperwork.
- Okay.
[HUNT] Hey, did Millin
respond to your page?
- Not yet.
- I feel nauseous.
- Cam, are you okay?
- [HUNT] He is in a lot of pain.
Do I have to be here for this?
I wanna die.
Dev, can you leave?
Uh, where am I supposed to go?
Fine.
Just turn around.
You want me to
Yeah.
I'm in love with you.
I have been in love with
you from the moment we met,
carrying your stupid Harry
Styles posters into the dorms.
I wanna be with you. And I don't
care that you're smashing Dev
- Dude.
- Cameron.
He doesn't wanna be
your boyfriend, Andrea.
And I want everything
with you. I want
[ANDREA] Cam. Cam, are you okay?
- He's getting hypotensive.
- Change of plan.
- [ANDREA] Cameron!
- [DEV] Is he gonna be okay?
- Take him straight to the OR.
- [ANDREA] What's happening?
- Okay, let's move.
- [ANDREA] Cameron!
Oh, right.
Ah. Slideshow is done,
and it is pretty kick-ass
if I do say so myself.
I can't thank you enough. I may
finally get some sleep tonight.
It was fun.
The hospital endowment is
a surprisingly interesting topic.
Said no one ever.
You check out the
slideshow and then decide.
I need to go find my husband.
They've pushed his colonoscopy
till the end of the day.
He is probably bribing nurses for food,
and I would rather not lose my
house over a banana nut muffin.
Hey, um, how about, uh,
Saturday for the spa day?
Together? I don't think
that's a good idea.
No?
I'm trying to respect your boundaries.
It's okay. When you figure
it out, you let me know.
[MILLIN] Pressures are still soft.
[NDUGU] Let's hang two units of blood.
[HUNT] Looks like the bleeding
is isolated to the spleen.
Let's prepare to remove it.
Right angle and tie, please.
Okay, blood pressure's picking up.
Okay.
- Millin, more suction.
- [MILLIN] Mm-hmm.
Has anyone ever died
on this scavenger hunt?
Uh, not that I know of. [CHUCKLES]
I think if people were
dying, they'd cancel it.
Let's not give 'em a reason to. Okay?
[MILLIN] At least they won't
cancel it over a broken heart.
- [NDUGU LAUGHS]
- [HUNT] We really steered him wrong.
Had I known she was
sleeping with the other guy
[MILLIN] They're doomed.
[HUNT LAUGHS] It would have been a lot
easier if he just kept his mouth shut.
Removing the spleen.
Rest in peace, spleen.
[HUNT CHUCKLES]
- Time of death 16:31.
- [NDUGU, HUNT CHUCKLE]
Cause of death sheer stupidity.
See? You can have fun.
- [MILLIN GASPS]
- [HUNT] What?
Oh. I think I just figured
out the scavenger hunt clue.
Millin, welcome to the party.
Glad to have you.
[HUNT] But I'm gonna need to
know what it is. [CHUCKLES]
Hey, how'd it go with Shepherd?
Where did you leave things?
Shepherd doesn't want me
discussing the case with you.
Bro.
Molly's gonna talk to her neurologist
about switching medication.
I thought we established her
epilepsy is refractory to meds.
Yeah, but she doesn't wanna do surgery,
so the only other option is to
hope that another drug will work.
And you told her how
irresponsible that is?
No, I don't coerce patients
into getting surgery.
She's not a patient.
She's the love of my life. [STAMMERS]
- Have you told her that?
- It's none of your business.
Brain surgery is terrifying.
I wouldn't wanna do it if I didn't
know who was waiting on the other side.
You're welcome, by the way.
[BAILEY] Okay, I'm here.
Okay, I-I-I know the committee's
already made its decision,
but I think I have a plan.
- My patient's on the table.
- Yes, okay.
And she will get a
transplant, but so can Tasha.
We do a split liver transplant.
Tasha would get two-thirds of the liver,
and Lisa would get the remaining third.
A third of the liver can't nearly
be enough to regenerate and function.
It doesn't need to regenerate.
It will act as a bridge.
Lisa's liver failure is reversible.
It just needs time to heal on its own.
The graft will allow that to happen.
It could save Lisa from having
to take immunosuppressants
- for the rest of her life.
- Yes, it would.
And you did say that the
liver was too big for Tasha.
- So, the split is a great fix.
- [MARSH] Yes.
We do that preemptively,
we save two lives.
It's a win-win.
Well, what the hell are we waiting for?
Let's go give everybody livers.

- Evynn's waiting for an update,

- [STAMMERS] Um
You know I I didn't agree with
what she did, but I understand it.
She was in a tough spot.
She did what she thought was
best, given the circumstances.
And I know you did too.
Thanks.
Well, here I am
talking to myself again ♪
- Are we supposed to be down here?
- Now you care about the rules?
Well, it's dead bodies, so, yeah.
Dead bodies or

No. You're You're supposed

Her vitals look good.
Post-op labs are reassuring.
[SIGHS] Yeah,
things worked out today.
Mm-hmm.
- But I need to tell you
- You really don't.
Altman's evaluation came in.
Yeah.
Ben, you are still in a trial period,
so can you just stay in your lane?
Are you asking as my boss or as my wife?
- What does it matter?
- Well, if it's my boss, then, okay.
But if it's my wife,
then I'm gonna be honest.
If I can help someone, I'm gonna do it.
Now, I am not a 20-something-year-old
intern with no experience.
I am going to do what is best
and hope my boss can see that.
Now, if you'll excuse
me, I gotta finish rounds.
Oh, my
[HUNT] Welcome back. Surgery went great.
We're gonna have you on your
feet in a couple of days.
Just do me a favor.
Avoid giant magnets, okay?
[CHUCKLING] I don't think
that'll be a problem.
- Can I come in?
- He just woke up. He's not ready for
- Can we talk?
- Okay.
I said everything I have to say.
You know how you don't
have just one jacket?
You have a raincoat, a heavy
coat for when it's really cold,
a light trench for spring.
I only have one jacket.
Okay. [CHUCKLES] Well, I have a lot.
He just had major surgery.
If this isn't urgent
I'll get to the point.
You make me laugh
harder than anybody else.
I need that in my life.
But I also need Dev,
who makes me feel smart,
and Dean, who makes me feel worldly.
There's a Dean?
I'm 21. I'm not ready to settle down.
But you are my best friend.
And I hope I didn't ruin that.

Don't get up. I'm just
gonna check her JP drain.
It'll just take me a minute.
She has good days and bad days,
but every second I get to spend
with her is a gift, so thank you.
My mother had Alzheimer's,
so I know the hell you're living in.
I'm sorry if I implied otherwise.
[SIGHS] Everything looks good.
You know, my research is
always about the people.
I never forget that.
Understood.
Is she still not speaking to you?
- She might not ever again.
- Oh, she will.
- But it just may take her a while.
- What makes you so sure?
She told me the two
of you are like family.
Reconciling family is
very important to her.
She just needs a minute, maybe.
She'll come around. Take care.
Hey, you want a ride?
No, I am going out tonight.
There's a lot of people
out there having fun,

You wanna go to Joe's and talk about it?
I have a bid whist date.

Yeah, haven't seen her in a while.
You should go get a drink.

Oh.
[KWAN SIGHS]
Before you drove away that night,
I asked if you wanted
to cancel the wedding,
and you said you needed to think.
"Wait for me," you said.
I am still waiting for you, Molly.
As long as it takes,
whatever it takes, I'll wait.
And I'm sorry I tried to
pressure you into surgery,
but I just I just don't
wanna see you suffer anymore.
I've been doing some research.
And did you know
that there are experimental surgeries
for amnesiacs to regain their memories?
What does that have to
do with your seizures?
Well, do you think Dr.
Shepherd would try it?
If I get the seizure surgery,
my brain will be open anyway.
[SCOFFS]
You don't want a standard procedure,
but you'll let Shepherd
experiment on your brain?
I know, I know. It sounds
like science fiction,
but more than stopping my seizures,
more than anything,
I want to remember you.
So, if Dr. Shepherd will try
to get my memories back
I'll do the surgery.

[GREY] After a terminal diagnosis,
it's hard to trust the good days,
when every second, the
clock is counting down.
We just got new labs in for Tasha.
Okay, her lactate is coming
down. That's promising.
Well, she still has Alzheimer's.
That won't get easier.
[CLICKS TONGUE] No.
Listen, I didn't see you in Tasha.
- You don't have to explain.
- No, no, no, I want to. I, um
I I saw myself in Evynn.
Yeah.
Look, you just gotta know
that if I were in her position,
I wouldn't stop fighting for you.
I wouldn't.
I wouldn't either.
I can't imagine my life without you.
Same.
- I think we just agreed on something.
- Yeah.
[GREY] But what if you stopped
fixating on what you will lose,
rather than what you already have?
- Hey.
- Hey.
Listen, I [SIGHS]
I need to tell you something.
That's ominous.
The last time she was at the
hospital, Nora tried to kiss me.
I didn't wanna tell you
because nothing happened.
I pulled away. And I didn't want
you to get upset for no reason.
And she has texted me a couple
times other than this morning,
and it started to feel dishonest.
And I never wanna lie to you.
Thank you.
I also wanna be honest with you.
I bumped into Cass today.
So, I I think
I think I might be attracted to her.
