Chicago Med (2015–…): Season 3, Episode 8 - Lemons and Lemonade - full transcript

Dr. Choi struggles to help a woman cope with anorexia. After a two-week suspension, Dr. Reese is immediately put to the test upon her return by Dr. Charles. Dr. Rhodes takes a stand when ...

Thanks.

Wow, some showy new wheels.

Not cheap. What are we talking? 125?

In the neighborhood.

Not one I've ever lived in.

Morning.

Good morning.

Nice looking.

But is she attracted to you or the car?

I'm gonna go find out.

Catch up to you later.



- Hi.
- Hi.

- Connor.
- Lisette.

That's it.

You got this. Nice job, little man.

I think you got a future architect here.

Or a demolitions expert.

I get a turn.

Thank you.

Is that good?

You like that?

Told ya.

We'll just have to rebuild
it again, now won't we?

What happened?

I have no idea.



Are you okay?

Yeah.

"Patton."

"The Evil Dead."

"The Dirty Dozen."

"Texas Chainsaw Massacre."

Come on, all your favorite
movies can't be slasher films.

Better than World War II flicks.

They're classics.

What can I get you?

Chai tea latte, almond milk,
no water, no foam, extra hot.

You got it.

Black coffee.

It is mystifying how
little we have in common.

Luckily, opposites attract.

Works for me.

Got a chai tea latte,
no water, no foam, almond milk,

extra hot.

- Thank you.
- Really?

Hers comes out first?

He'll pay. Catch you later.

I need a doctor, please!

- What's wrong? Are you hurt?
- Not me, a woman,

two blocks over, she's
on the ground, isn't moving.

Show me.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Hey, can you hear me?

Can you hear me? Who saw what happened?

She jogged past me, then she just fell.

I called 911.

- God, is she alive?
- Barely.

Can't wait on the paramedics.

I need you.

20something female went
down while jogging.

Barely awake, weak pulse, hypothermic.

Let's get her on the monitors
and start a line.

Bolus a liter of warm saline
and grab some blankets.

We need to raise her body temp.

She's pretty bundled up.

How long was she exposed
to the elements?

On the ground. Two, maybe three minutes.

That's it? And she's hypothermic?

Yeah.

God.

- There's nothing to her.
- Let's get her up.

Okay.

This side.

Hair's brittle and thin,
lanugo covering the skin.

Anorexia.

Stethoscope.

BP 88/50, heart rate 50s.

EKG is sinus Brady.

Bilateral crackles.

Her eyes are yellow. She's jaundiced.

God, I can feel right through
her to the bed underneath.

Where am I?

Hey, in the hospital.

Can you tell me your name?

Allison.

Allison, I'm Dr. Choi,
I'm gonna help you, okay?

I'm okay. I just need to rest.

Let's get a CBC, CMP, LFTs,

a chest xray and a 12 lead EKG.

Yep, on it.

Morning, I'm Dr. Halstead.

Asterid.

It looks like you're hurting too.

Need a hit?

Thanks, but let's
get you squared away first.

What happened?

I was running
up the stairs to the platform

to catch the train.

By the time I got to the last step,

I was...

I was so exhausted, I tripped.

Landed on my arm.

Is it broken?

Well, maybe. We'll get some Xrays.

Lean forward for me.

You okay?

I tweaked my back a few months ago.

Free clinic gave me some
antiinflammatories.

Said they'd help. They haven't.

I even crushed them up and snorted them.

What?

Just kidding.

I'm a standup comic,

so when I see an opening
for a joke, I have to take it.

Well, timing was excellent,
I'll give you that.

Where does your back hurt?

It's a sharp pain down here.

More throbbing up here.

The fall made it worse, didn't it?

Well, I can't say without a CT,

but no bruising or swelling,

so that's a good sign.

Hang tight. The techs will be by soon

to take you up to Radiology.

Maggie, which nurse do you have

covering Asterid in Treatment Four?

You're looking at her.

Double duty again?

Yep, twice the work for me,

and yet, it's the hospital's
bank account that benefits.

You know, trickle up economics.

Absolutely.

Nice shiner.

I haven't seen one of those
on you for a while.

This time, it wasn't my fault.

South side boy.

Somehow, I don't buy it.

What do you need in Four?

AP lateral of the left elbow

and a CT chest and belly with contrast.

You got it.

Dr. Reese.

Welcome back. How are you doing?

Great, great, very eager
to dive back in.

Fantastic.

Just for the record,
easing back in is okay too,

but thrilled you're here.

How's therapy been going?

Well, it better be going well.

Daily counseling,
anger management sessions,

meeting with the hospital attorney.

And remember, not intended
to be a punishment.

No, of course not.

It's actually a great way
to grow professionally.

Can't hide from it. It keeps the secrets

- in their pockets.
- Wonderful.

20something woman,
agitated and out of control.

PD found her running
around in the middle

of the I90 express lanes.

- What's she on?
- Nothing we can tell.

No track marks or tweaking
signs, but a lot of rambling.

Our insides, holding in...

Airway's clearly intact.

Obviously has no problem moving
four limbs spontaneously.

I'd say my job is done.

She's all yours.

Thank you.

Dr. Charles, Treatment Three,
can't wait.

But now I see how everything
is filled with water...

Man. Um...

Go ahead, I've got Jane Doe.

Do a full assessment,
and we will staff it later.

Thanks.

You good?

I'm good.

Welcome back.

Don't open the box, no.
Open the box, no.

Don't open the box.
Back and forth, on and off.

Allison, how you doing?

We're here... easy, easy, easy, easy.

Allison, I'm Dr. Charles.

Shrink.

So, um, something tells me

this isn't your first time in an ED.

Not just saline, is it?

Well, your blood sugar was 44,

so you know, the dextrose...

Treats hypoglycemia and all
that comes with it, I know.

But at 170 calories per liter...

If I can get 80 per mile,
home to lake and back is four,

that's 320.

So, is your math working out?

Are you gonna be able to burn
off those extra calories?

I don't need to be here.

Check my levels, vitamins.

Potassium.

They'll be normal.

What is the goto trick these days

for, you know, gaming those numbers?

You guys still sucking on lemons

or, I don't know, I heard
that guzzling vitamin water

is kind of coming into vogue.

I mean, it's none of
my business, but I am curious.

How long has it been going on for?

Five years?

Ten?

15? 15 years?

At least 15 years.

I want to go home.

Okay.

Allison, you know,
if you can't get out of bed,

you know that I can't...
I can't let you go, right?

And you do know what that means.

500.

5,000.

1,000.

4,000.

1,500.

- 3,000.
- Two.

Three.

Fine.

3,000 calories.

And it has to be through your nose.

If this goes.

Got yourself a deal.

And following the fingers,
you can count,

the count likes to laugh,
and he's just a puppet,

sometimes I feel like a puppet,

- with someone operating me...
- I'm Dr. Reese.

- Can you tell me your name?
- Not operating on me.

Because surgery belongs in
another part of the hospital.

Each part separated by a floor,
a floor made of marble or wood.

Can you tell me how you got here?

Cooking things through at a slow heat.

- The temperature cooks evenly...
- Where do you live?

Through me to the core
of my eyes and my brain,

and none of it will stop.

Watching the whirring,
watching the whirring,

go, go, go, go, go, go, go.

Foot, foot, left, right, left, right.

Back and forth, on and off,
on and off, on and off.

Back and forth, on and off,
the switch, the light switch breaking...

Meds first, talk later?

Please. Let's get her
Risperdal MTAB

two milligrams, should calm her down.

All right.

I don't know why I let you talk me

out of coming here yesterday.

I'm fine, it's just a really bad cold.

It's our first vacation together.

Emergency room's not on the itinerary.

Temp's 100.4.

See, Hannah, it's barely a fever.

God forbid he let on that he's sick.

I've got a stubborn one also.

Me too.

Lymph nodes are enlarged.

All right.

I'm gonna have you open
your mouth for me.

He hasn't eaten in three days.

He can barely sip water.
It hurts that bad.

Throat's pretty raw.

Tonsils are swollen. Yellow exudate.

- What's that?
- Pus.

Maybe an infection.

See, we should've come yesterday.

I'll get a rapid strep test.

And let's get a CBC and BMP also.

I'm sorry.

I just wanted the trip to be perfect.

And I just want you to be healthy.

Well, hopefully we can solve
both of your problems.

I'll be back shortly.

What, you keeping a secret?

- Hey.
- "Your Toddler and You."

Is this business or pleasure?

Both.

I'm looking for ideas on how
to get Owen to like me.

What makes you think he doesn't?

I don't know.

You worry too much.

Hey, Owen's number one
in Natalie's life.

If I can't make it work with
him, I got no shot with her.

Well, let me break
down toddlers for you.

They eat, sleep, poop, and play.

Help 'em out with any one of
those things, and you're gold.

Radiologist's report.

Asterid's arm Xray and CT scans.

And no fractures?

Just soft tissue swelling.

Let's wrap her elbow up
and put it in a sling.

Got it.

Whoa.

What is it?

Her CT.

I need Connor and Dr. Neal in Urology.

I got it.

3,000 calories?

It's all she's willing to accept.

Why are you negotiating?

Dangerously low albumin,
renal insufficiency.

"5'6" and less than 70 pounds.

Dr. Charles, I carried her in,
she was nothing.

She needs highcalorie,
longterm nutrition.

I agree.

Then what are you doing?

Anorexia is actually
the most deadly mental illness

that there is.

Every instinct she has
is telling her to resist this,

and I don't want to push her
any harder than she'll let us.

- Then let me push her.
- No.

I made a deal, we have to honor it.

Trust me, it's her best shot.

Listen, we get 3,000,
and you'll go back for more.

- Of course.
- Dr. Choi,

Allison's parents are here.
Waiting room.

Thanks, Mags.

I'll fill them in
and place the feeding tube.

Is she the worst case you've ever seen?

Healthy BMI is 18 to 25.

Hers is 11.

If she's going to survive,

we can't afford to make
any mistakes here.

She's killing herself.

So, um, so catch me up on Jane Doe.

Um, no idea on her.

Maggie is working with PD to get a name.

Tox screen is clean,
this isn't druginduced.

And I'm thinking bipolar mania.

Rapid speech, psychomotor agitation,

flight of ideas,
plus she hasn't bathed in days.

So, presumably, she went manic

and fled wherever she was living?

You started her on Risperdal?

It hasn't made a dent.

I want to double the dose and
add a second mood stabilizer.

You ruled out all the possibilities?

You know, schizoaffective disorder,

temporal lobe epilepsy, delirium,

other mood disorders?

Why? Mania can be diagnosed

through pattern recognition
just like I've done,

and there's been no clinical
indication to keep digging

for anything else.

Just humor me, okay, doctor?

Look, it's your first day back,

before you add any other meds,

just check all the boxes,

see if you don't think it's necessary.

Physical, neural exam, motor function,

head CT, all that stuff, okay?

- Okay.
- Okay, good.

I wish there was something I could do.

Hi, guys,

So, Tommy, you do not have strep.

But your body is
most likely fighting off

a bacterial infection.

So, I'm gonna start you on clindamycin,

which is an oral antibiotic.

Whatever the bug, it'll take care of it.

So we can get out of here?

Yes, but please, just try to
take it easy the next few days.

As cliché as it is,
rest is the best medicine.

I won't let him leave
the hotel, promise.

Are you okay?

My ankle.

Why don't you let me take a look?

Whoa, that's really red.

You didn't feel anything?

Hot and fluctuant.

- I and D it?
- Yeah.

Now, I'm gonna make a small incision,

so that we can get a sample, okay?

All right, and when I ask you to,

I'm gonna have you take a deep breath,

and exhale for me, okay?

All right, this is gonna hurt
a little bit, all right?

Just take a deep breath in.

Good.

And another one.

And again.

Good.

One last time.

Great job.

All right, here comes the incision.

Is that what's in my throat?

How did it get in his ankle?

Let's just wait
and see what the lab says.

Bad news, though, you guys are
gonna have to hang out here

a little bit longer, I'm sorry.

All right, you need anything,
I'll be close by.

Bacteria can travel once
it enters the bloodstream,

but for a new infection
to manifest that fast...

Yeah, something's definitely going on.

- See you in the lab, okay?
- Yeah.

It's cancer?

Yeah, it's likely renal cell carcinoma.

The tumor extends
from inside your left kidney,

into the inferior vena cava,

and up into the right atrium
of your heart.

You never had a sprained back.

The pain is from ureteral compression.

You were exhausted running up the stairs

because the tumor was blocking blood

from returning to your heart.

Asterid, you following us?

Yeah, I'm just trying to find a joke

to cope with all of this.

That's okay.

We'll find the funny
after you've beaten this.

Seriously, I'm not dying?

No.

No, the cancer is treatable.
The tumor is operable.

Now, to get all of it,
I'm gonna have to involve

other surgeons, and unfortunately,

we will have to remove your left kidney.

But you can live just fine with one.

I know it's a lot to take all at once.

You don't get it.

I do open Mic night.

Those gigs don't come
with health care plans.

And the three jobs that I do
have barely cover the rent.

So... I can't pay for this.

You don't have to.

The tumor invading your heart
is lifethreatening,

and that means that Medicaid
will cover the surgery

and the resulting recovery.

It's not gonna cost me anything?

No.

We're gonna take care of you.

Allison, I'm gonna put
this tube in your nose.

When you feel it in your
throat, I need you to swallow.

Allison, you understand?

Okay, here we go.

Swallow.

Allison, swallow.

There you go.

It's going in, nice job.

It's going to work this time.

We've tried helping her for years.

Doctors, rehabs.

No matter what we do,
she just keeps withering away.

Sometimes, being out
of options is what it takes

to instill desire to get better.

Xray.

Tube's in.

I'm gonna turn on the pump now.

Allison, Allison.
Look at me, look at me.

- Slow breaths.
- I can't.

Yes, you can. You can do this.

- You're fine, you're...
- No, no, stop.

- Just relax, just relax.
- Stop it.

I can't do it.

I need it out!

Hold on, hold on, hold on.
No, no, no, no, no!

We'll try again.

No.

I'm done.

Allison!

I said I'm done.

Why don't we give Dr. Choi a
moment to prepare another tube?

- Maybe we can...
- You're not hearing me.

I want my lawyer.

I'm serious. Get my phone.

I'm calling my lawyer now.

Will, I'll come find you
when we're done.

I'm good.

Kidney free?

Yep, from everything but the renal vein.

I'm vessel looping the inferior
vena cava below it now.

I'm curious.

You score a date tonight?

I did.

How's it going on your end?

Opening the right atrium.

I can see the bulb of the tumor.

There we go.

Your turn.

All right.

Tumor is one long stalk now.

I'm gonna tease it out
as we remove the kidney.

Kidney is detached.

And here we go.

All right.

Got it.

- One piece? No stragglers?
- It's whole.

Impressive.

Bet your mojo's gonna
last all night long.

Lucky girl.

We will conquer the evil
beast that live inside,

and I shout them out, out, out, out.

And the winds blow by, and
carry my breath into the sky.

God's shouting down
and carries my clothes

into your head.

And I will conquer the evil
beast that live inside...

Thanks, Trudy. Dr. Reese?

I just got off the phone with PD.

A woman named Melissa Withers
filed a missing persons report

about her sister, Jamie.

Description matches your Jane Doe.

Out, out, out, out, out, out, I pray.

And to follow the pages
as they turn, thumbing through.

Do you got a phone number for Melissa?

For Melissa.

Déjà vu.

I had pneumonia, right after college.

Spent two weeks in the
hospital, Waukesha, Wisconsin.

Let me guess. Same vending machines?

It's amazing.

Cafeteria makes a great smoothie.

No, II want to stay close to Tommy.

I'll find something.

Hey, so, the clindamycin
is not gonna work.

Grampositive cocci.

- A staph infection.
- Yeah.

So, let's switch to IV Vancomycin.

Staph can be a sticky bug.
We need to be more aggressive.

- Okay.
- Thank you.

So we clear to try another feeding tube?

Um, no.

We are not.

Apparently, Allison
was prepared for this moment.

She's already had papers drawn
up to prevent forcible feeding.

Hospital lawyers don't want to fight it.

That's insane.

They'll just let her die?

Well, legally, they don't have a move.

Precedent's already been set
in the courts.

In each case, the patient's
wishes were upheld.

So we go to the parents.
Don't they have a say?

Allison's an adult, Ethan.

I mean, ultimately,
she decides her own fate.

So, there's nothing we can do?

Look, after seven years,

anorexia is considered
severe and enduring.

This poor lady has been
struggling for more than 15.

Her entire being is fixated
on gaining control,

and holding onto it.

Even if it kills her.

So regardless of the injunction,

or her parents love...

The odds of her recovery are...

Hey, there.

How you feeling?

All things considered, fantastic.

I mean...

I'm down a kidney,
but at least it didn't cost me

an arm and a leg.

See, you got your sense of humor back.

Kind of.

Yeah, that was pretty awful?

Look, jokes aside, thank you.

Sure.

So, I'm gonna be back to
check on you in a couple hours,

but before we head out, any questions?

Just one. My right leg is achy.

Around the shin.

Never felt it before.

Maybe a side effect from the anesthesia?

Could be.

Let me speak with the anesthesiologist

and see what he thinks.

Right now, you just get some rest.

Leg pain?
That's not from the anesthesia.

No, but let's not say it out
loud without an Xray.

I'll get it going.

Hannah.

Hannah?

My God. Tommy?

Help. Help!

What's happening?

Temp's up to 104. He's tacky.

BP's 94/62. Septic shock.

First dose of Vanc didn't work.

Bolus a liter of normal saline,
and push IV Tylenol.

Tommy, can you open your mouth for me?

What are you looking for?

Abscesses that weren't there earlier.

Nothing dental or oral.

Help me search his skin.

Nothing on this side.

Here either.

Get a cooling blanket.

He should be getting better,
but he's only getting worse.

It's gonna be okay. It's okay.

Hey.

Hi.

Tommy's latest labs.

He doesn't have a staph infection.

VancomycinResistant Enterococcus.

- The super bug?
- Yeah.

And one that is not easy to get.

VRE's a nosocomial infection.
It lives in hospitals.

I don't think I've ever seen it
contracted anywhere else.

Hannah.

She had pneumonia a decade ago.

Was hospitalized for two weeks.

Could've picked it up then,
had it ever since.

Asymptomatic carrier.

Intimate relationship,

lots of ways she could've passed it on.

Okay, let's start Tommy on IV Linezolid,

swab Hannah's nose
and throat for the bacteria,

confirm she's the source.

- Got it.
- Thank you.

Dr. Charles,
our Jane Doe is Jamie Walker,

an aspiring chef in culinary school.

A month ago, she started
staying up all night,

reading the Bible,
and writing a manifesto.

Last week, she dropped out of school

and hasn't been seen home in four days.

Now, my original findings,

combined with her sudden onset drop,

lack in functioning, her
decreased need for sleep,

her grandiose thinking combined
with hyperreligiosity,

bipolar mania.

So, exams, lab results
didn't poke any holes?

No, I never go to them.

I filled in the blanks
with the added history.

Wait, so, you got all that,

a detailed, chronological
history, from a patient

in a manic state?

I... well, no,

it came from collateral.

I found and spoke
with her sister, Melissa.

Dr. Reese, I thought
we were checking all the boxes.

You know, doing it by the book?

II confirmed my diagnosis.

Does it matter how I got there?

Yes, when you're on probation, it does.

It does matter how you got there.

Um, you're... you're right.

Okay.

So, um... so what's the next
move, for your patient?

I want to admit her to the psych ward.

She hasn't responded to any of her meds.

And what meds would those be?

I doubled the Risperdal
and added Depakote.

Also without filling you in.

Okay,

Well, um, you know, with bipolar,

all those meds,

should've made some kind of dent,

so I'd like to take a look.

The cancer metastasized to her tibia.

Likely months ago.

No discomfort upon admission?

It was drowned out by
the back pain from her kidney.

Once that was alleviated...

Her body registered the new problem.

So, did we catch it in time?

Let's start Asterid on a high dose bolus

of Interleukin2, see if she responds.

If she doesn't, she may be a candidate

for our phase three trial of Pazopanib,

a chemotherapy agent.

I'm gonna pull Ortho in, as well.

Excuse me, Dr. Rhodes,
Halstead, may I speak with you?

I'm cancelling
Asterid's move to Oncology.

- What?
- Instead,

I'm going to find a bed for her

in a safety net hospital.

Med is a premiere cancer center.

- You're gonna transfer her?
- I don't have a choice.

She doesn't have insurance,

and I know the hospital
won't cover the bill

her treatments are going to generate.

She has emergency coverage
from Medicaid.

Right, but that only pays for procedures

related to removal of the tumor.

The bone cancer is new,

and not immediately lifethreatening.

We can't throw Asterid out.

A minute clinic misdiagnosed
her renal cell carcinoma

as a back sprain.

If we put her in the system,

she might fall through the cracks again.

You have pulled strings before,

you made the numbers work,
just do it again.

Do you know what kind of numbers

we're talking about here?

$100,000?

$200,000?

What kind of dream world
are you living in?

Do you want me to inform the patient?

No, we'll do it.

- Sitting in pews...
- Hi, I'm Dr. Charles.

Four days ago, we could have
somewhat of a conversation,

and now, I don't know if she's eaten.

Between her work and school,

I thought Jamie was just stressed.

I didn't realize she was
having a breakdown.

None of this is on you.

Um, Jamie?

I'd like to examine you now.
Would that be all right?

Three locked up inside.

Wanted everything for it,
everything, everything.

Everything. So much my arms
can't even hold them all...

Clear, prominent disinhibition.

Hasn't let up since my first exam.

Consistent with bipolar mania.

- Let me go.
- You see this?

In her eyes?

What?

Yellowish brown circles
around her irises.

I think they're KayserFleischer rings.

And weeks, days and weeks

flipping in the calendar, the
bright light burns the trees,

leaves, falling,
stop falling, too many...

too many people crowding.

Too many people.
Bright light burns the trees.

Leaves falling.
Entirely too many people.

Um... your sister is in culinary school.

Has she ever said anything
to you about... about copper,

using copper pots?

Yeah, I think so.

Something about them being
the best heat conductors.

I don't know anything about cooking.

Does that mean something to you?

Dr. Reese?

- Wilson's disease.
- What's that?

It's a genetic disorder,

um, where com... copper
accumulates in the body.

Jamie's use of copper cookware

could've accelerated the buildup

that led to this manic episode.

If this is Wilson's disease,
is there a cure?

Um, no, but there is
treatment to manage it,

and she... she would get better.

Thank God.

Dr. Reese, could I just have
a word outside? Thank you.

And twitching.
Wiggle, wriggle, wiggle...

So, you couldn't even get
close enough to your patient

to examine her eyes?

She was so agitated...

- Dr. Reese.
- Help!

No pulse. Vfib. Charge to 200.

- Charged.
- Clear.

My poor baby.

One milligram epi. Charge to 200 again.

- Epi's in. Charged.
- Clear.

Asystole. We can't shock her anymore.

My God. What's he doing?

Come on, come on.

She's suffered enough. Please, stop.

Time of death 18:21.

We're looking for Dr. Halstead.

Here to transfer
an Asterid Morgan to County.

Right, one sec.

- Will?
- Yeah?

They're here.

Hey, guys. Come with me.

I got this from Hannah?

How? I don't have a sore throat.

No fever, aches, pains, I'm not sick.

You don't have an active infection,

but since your pneumonia,
you've been contagious.

For ten years?

I work in an office,

cross paths with dozens
of people every day,

not to mention boyfriends before Tommy.

No one else has ever gotten sick.

We're gonna run some tests

and find out exactly what it is.

Honey, I am so sorry.

It's not your fault. You had no idea.

Besides, I'm feeling better.

It means that these
antibiotics are working, right?

Yes.

Put Hannah on them.

- Yeah.
- Kill whatever bug

she's been dragging around
for the last ten years.

I'm afraid it's not that simple.

You see, as a carrier, you're
colonized with the bacteria.

Which means it lives in
too many places in your body

for the antibiotic to be effective.

You mean...

I've got this forever?

I'm afraid so.

Then I could give it to Tommy again.

With precautions, the risk
of reinfection can be reduced.

This can't be...
this can't be happening.

We can deal with it.

- Yeah.
- We'll figure it out.

This sucks.

We do everything right
and still come up short.

All right, let's go.

Screw this.

Stop, she's not going anywhere.

Sorry, we have transfer orders.

And I am overriding them.

Dr. Rhodes, what's going on?

It's okay, Asterid.
It's just a miscommunication.

I'm gonna take care of it.

Go ahead and put her back.

Whatever you say.

Sign here, so this doesn't
come down on us.

Connor, what are you doing?

I got this. Don't worry.

I did my twoweek suspension.

I am in therapy.

I am not supposed to be afraid anymore.

I am a psychiatrist.

Rule number one is to connect
with your patients,

and I could not even look her
in the eye.

Look, the good news is
that you recognize the problem.

Right?

Sarah, nobody learns how
to master their fears

in two weeks, trust me.

It doesn't happen.

Not even somebody as
determined as you are.

Okay.

You know what?
Um, when Allison died today,

I saw myself,
because she could not change.

But I have to... I have to.
I just don't know how.

You have to help me, Dr. Charles.

Of course.

Of course. Of course I will.

Okay.

Hey, how's it going?

They haven't taken
their eyes off each other.

Hey, Hannah, here are some pamphlets

on universal precautions.

I thought they might be helpful
for you and Tommy.

Yeah, I don't need them.

You don't?

There's only one thing to do.

Will you give this to Tommy tomorrow?

I couldn't tell him myself.

Hannah...

I love him.

I can't put him at risk.

Dealing with TB, Tate and I,

the pressure it put
on our relationship...

I get it.

Same here.

Where are you gonna put it?

- Right there.
- Right there?

That's gonna be beautiful.

You like it standing up like that?

I'll take that as a no.

Special delivery.

What did you do?

Hey, little man.

Look what I have for ya.

- A car.
- A truck!

It is!

Is this because of that?

I'm reading up on child development.

Emotional modeling, active engagement.

I thought maybe the best way
to bond might just be a bribe.

Owen, do you like the car?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

Want to get in, try it out?

Take it for a spin.

I'm so sorry. Are you okay?

- Does he hate me?
- What?

No.

Of course not.

Hey, how could he hate you?

I don't know.

Look, you and I are lucky.

A pair of black eyes, it's nothing.

Let's go get you some ice.

Come on.

- Dr. Rhodes.
- Excuse me.

A moment.

Asterid's transfer to County...

I'm sure you can imagine my surprise

when I learned it was
suddenly unnecessary.

Yeah, it...

it turns out that
the hospital's charitable fund

has enough money to cover her costs.

It does now.
It seems a sixfigure donation

was made a few hours ago anonymously.

That's good timing, I guess.

Good night.

Dr. Rhodes,

be careful.

Patients are going to keep coming.

And as wealthy as you may be,

your checkbook won't be able to keep up.

But it did today.

Good night, Ms. Goodwin.
