Code Black (2015–2018): Season 2, Episode 1 - Second Year - full transcript

Attention, all aircraft. We have a
weather advisory. For all coastal regions

Ventura to Orange County.

Met 4, be advised

we've patched you in to
L.A. County Lifeguard.

Frequency V16 direct.

Dr. Leighton, we have the
lifeguard from the beach

on the radio for you.

Put me through. What do we got?

That shark came up like a rocket.

There's three victims, one dead already.

They're teenagers, man.



- How far out are you?
- Three minutes.

You got to hurry up! There's
blood all over the beach!

Breaking news... We're getting reports

of a shark attack in
Malibu this morning.

You're seeing amateur
video of the chaotic scene

on the beach right now.

One of our reporters will be
arriving on the scene shortly,

and we'll be updating
you throughout the day.

Let me go!

Hello, residents.

I'm Jesse Sallander, senior E.R. nurse.

And for the next three years,

I'm your mama.

I can promise you nothing
goes on in this house



your mama don't know about.

You think you're smarter than your mama

because you have an M.D.?

You're not.

Your mama can tell when
you're lying, crying, or dying.

Whoa, come... come on, bro.

This can't be here.

Look, I got gurneys coming in
and out of here every two minutes.

Storeroom.

CCCRP?

Combat Casualty Carry
Research Program...

Department of Defense.

They send us doctors here every year...

Teach us new techniques,

new technologies they learn
in the field of combat.

That was only a year ago for us.

Seems like a thousand.

Every year, thousands
of newly minted doctors,

like yourself, apply to
learn emergency medicine

in the civic cathedral
you are about to enter.

That's her.

That's Jessamine.

I thought that was Charlotte Piel.

Jessamine was the
character that she played.

How do you not know that?

Never saw any of the movies.

You haven't seen "The Artemis Stone"?

It was the seminal
movie of my childhood.

"The Artemis Fire" was my favorite.

I read the book twice.

"Artemis Thief"... Way better.

- You're crazy.
- You're nerds.

Angels Memorial.

Okay, take a good look, people.

This is what you're gonna
look like in 12 months...

Beaten and bewildered.

Second-years.

Say hello to first-years.

Hi, Ms. Piel.

I'm Angus Leighton. I'm a huge fan.

It's just "Charlotte."

No, it's "Dr. Piel."

I'm Malaya Pineda.

Hi.

Oh, and this is Mario Savetti.

He hasn't seen any of your movies.

Oh, enough already.

Dr. Leighton, did you drive
here with your brother today?

He has new residents.

Yeah. I haven't seen him since.

Dr. Leighton's on a chopper.

What do you mean he's on the chopper?

He and the army guy.

Wasn't room for all of us, so...

Does Dr. Rorish know this?

What army guy?

Man, I hate helicopters.

It's a wonder they even fly
at all when you think about it.

I hadn't... Thought about it.

Yeah, they crash 35%
more than airplanes.

9.84 crashes for every 100,000 hours.

Didn't know that.

But... now I do.

If you're that afraid of flying
in one, why'd you hop on board?

Didn't say I was scared.
Said I didn't like it.

I also don't like bad tequila.

That didn't stop me last night.

I got a stiff wind
coming in from the west.

We got to turn into it when we land.

All right, this is gonna suck. Hang on.

See?

It's a wonder the thing doesn't
drop out of the sky like a rock.

Okay, on the ground in eight seconds.

By order of the county
sheriff, this beach is closed.

You take the girl! I got the other!

Yep! You got it!

What's your name?

- Kaya.
- The shark came out of nowhere.

We didn't see it until it happened.

Okay, and what's your name?

My name's Jaydin.

Jaydin, I need you to
calm down for me, okay?

Okay.

You're gonna be okay.

All right, he's losing too much blood.

He's not gonna make it back

unless we stabilize him right here.

I need you to stay still for me!

All right.

Let's get her on the
stretcher and to the chopper.

What about Tucker?

I don't know! Go check!

Okay, I'm going.

Oh, god!

Oh, god! Oh, no! Get her
away! Somebody take her!

What do we got?

Guy's a soup sandwich.

I need you to hang some blood
while I plug this thing in.

Plug what in? What the hell is that?

Can't tourniquet an abdomen, but
you've got to stop the bleeding.

We inject this foam into the peritoneum.

Foam?

It surrounds all the anatomy...
Organs, vessels, everything.

Expands and tamponades the bleed.

Intra-peritoneal foam system,
courtesy U.S. military.

Are you serious? Have
you ever done this before?

On a pig.

A pig?

It works.

Should work.

All right. Watch this.

It's like shooting whipped
cream into a twinkie.

All right! Profusion's improving!

Pulse is stronger!

Hooah! Let's get him out of here.

As you know, the army sends
someone here every year...

To teach, not to drag
my residency director

out in the field the very day
his new residents are starting.

It was hardly a house call.

Well, you don't have the
authority to just tell my...

Yes, I do.

They told me you'd
be informed on Friday.

What are we talking about?

The board decided to combine
the administration of the O.R.

And Trauma One.

Excuse me?

Yeah. I'm now running both departments.

You can't be serious.

Sorry you have to find out this way.

I know you're disappointed.

You think I'm disappointed to
lose a job I didn't even want?

No, I'm furious that
combining Trauma One

with another department sets
back E.R. medicine 40 years.

Well, it happens to be more efficient.

It's more efficient for you.

What happens to me?

You go back to being a doctor.

I was always a doctor.

Grab the door!

Get that door closed!

Man down! Man down!

Put 'er down! We lost a man!

We got to bring her back around!

I got a big onshore gust.

I can't set her down...
Not in this wind.

Then hover out over the water!

What are you doing?

Something stupid.

Get them back to angels!

All right, heads up, everyone!

You are doctors! You are here to learn.

You are not in the way.

You're not guests.

You're part of a trauma team.

Don't be shy.

All right. Let's get in
there, heads down, safely!

Leighton! Get the door!

What do you got?

Two shark-bite victims.

13-year-old
female.

Multiple, deep lacerations to
her right leg and right arm.

17-year-old
male.

1, 2, 3. Multiple puncture
wounds to his abdomen.

Hypotensive on scene. BP now stable.

All right, hold on.

Pinkney, get that one to the O.R. now!

Wait, wait... Where are the two doctors?

There was an accident.

What kind of accident?

Dr. Leighton fell.

- Fell from where?
- From the chopper 20 feet above the deck.

Where are they now?

I don't know. The army
guy, Willis, is with him.

- That's all I know.
- Angus, you stay.

Go to dispatch. See what you
can find out about your brother.

Gurney coming through. Look out!

Michelle, send off a
trauma panel, please.

Type and cross for four.

Rig it up.

All right. Get the rail down, please.

Get up here.

And, on my count. 1, 2, 3.

Got it.

- What's your name?
- Kaya.

Kaya. All right. We're just
gonna roll you right over.

It's gonna be okay.

Ready? 1, 2, 3.

Got it.

- Clear.
- Got it.

Airway is patent.

Who can tell me the best place
for an I.V. in a trauma patient?

Anyone?

I'm gonna need a suture tray,
please, with a 5-0 vicryl.

Breath sounds are equal bilaterally.

Femoral central line?

Oh, no, no. Come on, people.

Your patient can't wait
for you to Google it.

BP is 82 over 40.

Abdomen soft, non-tender.

Jesse, epi with lido, please.

- Got it.
- Thank you.

Forceps, please.

Forceps. Thank you.

Dr. Kean, where am I
gonna put that I.V.?

Come on, come on. Now, please.

- Internal jugular.
- No!

Pupils are equal and reactive to light.

Antecubital lines allow
quick large bore access

for immediate resuscitation.

Well done.

You guys see this? Get
in there and look now.

We got a 2 centimeter tear of
the tibial artery right here.

Come on over, Dr. Piel.

I want you to assist
in the repair, please.

16 gauge in the antecubital?

Uh, yes, please.

Jesse.

Mike Leighton took a 20
foot fall out of the chopper.

Page Dr. Campbell.

Tell him I'm prepping for an ex-lap

and hang two more units of O-neg.

Can't believe this kid is still alive.

What the hell is this stuff?

All right, get this
Colonel Willis on the phone.

He looks like an eclair.

Were you planning on
telling me what this stuff is

oozing out of the patient?

Things got a little busy out there.

His GCS is 6. I'm gonna intubate.

It's molded to the anatomy.

That's the point.

All right, I need a 10cc syringe,

I need a 7.5 ET tube,

and do you have a CO2 detector?

And how am I supposed
to get it out of him?

It's designed to pull away
from the internal structures

and not leave any surface damage.

You're gonna be famous. Nobody's
ever tried this on a live patient.

Any idea where the bleeder is?

Good, we're in.

I suspect a mesentery injury,

but it was hard to tell out there.

Do we have a status
report on Dr. Leighton?

Who's this?

Angus, you shouldn't be on this line.

I'll get off as soon as I
find out how my brother is.

Is he conscious?

No. And this isn't helping.

What's your E.T.A., please?

Angus, hang up.

Dr. Leighton, get off that mic.

Son, let them do their jobs.

Now, we got an ambulance on the ramp.

You want to give me a hand?

Or do you need a break?

I'm fine.

All right, what do we got?

65-year-old male, Henry Underwood,

found unconscious on the
sidewalk, post-assault.

GCS is 4, responds to pain only.

Multiple contusions.

BP 118 over 64. Heart rate 132.

Sats 87.

All right, coming in,
coming in. Bed number 2.

All right, let's draw blood
and bolus a liter of NS.

Okay, on my count. 1, 2, 3.

Thank you.

- What do you got, Guthrie?
- Assault victim.

Blunt trauma to the
head, back, and chest.

Grab the ultrasound.

Who? Me? Uh, w-where is it?

I got it. I got it.

You. What's your name, son?

Elliot.

In here, you're Dr. Dixon.

Breathe, Dr. Dixon. Breathe.

Residents.

I'm Dr. Campbell.

With your residency director
currently incapacitated,

you will be supervised by Dr.
Rorish till further notice.

I got to go up to the O.R.

We don't know he's incapacitated.

We don't know anything.

Dr. Leighton, I'm sorry.
I did not see you there.

Since when does he tell
E.R. residents what to do?

- Dr. Leighton...
- He runs the O.R.

Dr. Campbell is now director of the E.R.

We're all hoping that Mike's okay.

Oh, god!

I'm new here. I'm Willis.

Where we taking him?

Center stage.

- Sats coming up.
- All right.

Angus! It's Mike.

Has he regained consciousness at all?

Malaya. I don't know.

Unfortunately, he has not.

No gag reflex, totally unresponsive.

I had to intubate him.

All right, he's got increased
pressure on his brain.

He's bleeding.

I'll call neurosurgery.
No, there's no time.

He's posturing.

- He's herniating in his brain...
- I know what "posturing" means!

Then you know that if we don't
drill a hole in your brother's head

in the next 60 seconds, he's gonna die.

No. We wait for neurosurgery.

Risa, get him the burr hole kit, please.

I could use a hand.
Malaya, switch with me.

Dr. Rorish.

He is my brother.

That's exactly why you
shouldn't make this decision.

I don't even know him.

This is what you need to know...

I've done exactly 300 of these.
You've probably done none.

I am the best hope your brother has.

Now step off.

Angus, let him do what he needs to do.

You shouldn't watch this.

I can't leave him.

Okay, I'm not gonna make you leave,

but you got to stand
behind the orange line.

We're good?

Going in.

Mike's gonna pull through.

That guy... Colonel Willis...

Drills a hole in his
skull in center stage

and didn't even care what I thought.

No one did.

Not even Rorish.

Look, I know you don't
want to hear this,

but from what I saw,
he saved Mike's life.

Okay, I don't have any real
news, other than he's alive.

Okay. How, uh, how
long till he wakes up?

We're gonna keep him sedated on a vent

for at least a couple of days,
until the swelling goes down.

I knew we should have brought
him up here right away.

Mike would have died if
it weren't for Willis.

That's a fact.

That's what I said.

Where's Tucker?

He's in the O.R.

His parents are on an airplane.

We haven't been able to reach them yet.

I know.

Our parents are in Paris together.

Nice!

Is my sister here yet?

It's a long drive from Malibu...

Which I learned myself today.

I was with Tucker first, you know?

Okay.

I know he's older, but we have a thing.

What kind of a...

You know what? Don't answer that.

I don't want to know.

It's real.

And Jaydin's trying to mess with it.

She's a whore.

Ow!

Can't you numb that or something?

All right.

It's gonna sting a little.

She already let him put
his hands up her shirt.

How can I compete with that?

- My boobs are like...
- Okay, okay.

We're in a weird area here.

I think this is a conversation

you should be having with your parents.

Have you talked to them?

Before they took off.

They're very upset.

Wait till you tell them
about you and Tucker.

Every hospital has a different system.

At Angels, code green
is relatively quiet.

Code yellow... we're filling
up but still manageable.

Dr. Dixon, did you get lost?

Yes.

Code red... We're over capacity,

things are starting to get dicey.

But when that board says "code black,"

that's when things can
really start to go sideways.

What's it mean?

It's an internal catastrophe,

where we're so overrun
by critical patients,

we don't have the resources
or the staff to treat them all.

How often does that happen?

Almost every night.

If you know you're always
gonna be in code black,

why not do something about it?

Because doing something costs money,

and we're a county hospital

in the second-largest city in America.

As a doctor, what do you do

when the hospital exceeds its capacity?

You exceed your own.

All right. That's
enough touring for now.

Is there a lounge or something
where we can take a break?

Are you tired, sugar bear?

It's just that it's been like six hours.

- Dude.
- No, no, I just...

- You know, I thought that...
- Dr. Savetti.

Can you take Dr. Kean and
Dr. Piel, make them useful?

I'm gonna take Dr. Dixon
to the lounge, okay?

The lounge?

Colonel Willis?
Can we have a word, please?

Please... why don't
you lose the "colonel."

It always sounds like you're
talking about an old man

in a nursing home.

All right.

Dr. Willis, the way it
works here is the physician

who catches the incoming
case becomes the primary.

Mm-hmm. Or we could go with
nature's law, finders keepers.

I scooped her up off the beach.

Sorry. My bad.

But she needs debridement
and a multilayered closure.

I'm aware of that.

That's why she's waiting for an O.R.

And if she waits, she could also
lose the mobility in the hand.

- Come look.
- Thanks.

Hey.

Wh-what's happening?

Well, you got a big ol'
tear in your brachioradialis.

Sounds like a dinosaur.

I never thought of it like that.

I like it.

So, this is the tendon that
controls your arm movement...

She's out.

Kaya?

Loss of blood. Let's hang a few units.

Pulse is still strong.

We got to do this here.

You want to do it here?

I've done it in the back of a Humvee.

Come on. You with me on this?

Game on.

Okay. You can both do this one together.

It's an easy one.

Patient complaining of pain everywhere.

Why is that an easy one?

Pain everywhere means pain nowhere.

Check her, come find me.

I'm Dr. Piel.

Hi. I'm Dr. Kean.

So, are... are you researching
a role or something?

No. I'm not acting anymore.

This is just weird.

Yeah, I'm sure you're very good, but...

Can you tell us when the pain started?

Um, I... I had a
hysterectomy six weeks ago

and was just cleared to have sex.

Um, I, um, I met a guy
up in Runyon Canyon...

Breathe for me.

Oh, and I, uh, decided he was the one.

The pain began right after.

Have you been having
any fevers, bleeding?

Um, no.

Feel this.

That's crepitus, right?

I don't know.

I don't... What is that?

Crepitus is free air under your skin.

W-what does it mean?

If it is crepitus...
Which I'm not sure it is...

It could mean a lot of things.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

I think I need to see a real doctor now.

We are doctors... Real doctors.

Ms. Kobling, it's possible
that by having sex too soon

after your surgery, air
was forced into your body.

What? Stop. No, no.

Can we talk a minute?

There could be a puncture in the vagina.

What? A puncture? Like... A hole?

Seriously, can we talk outside?

We'll be right back, okay?

Oh, my god.

Jessamine just told me I
have a hole in my vagina.

You're suddenly an OB/GYN?

Aggressive sex could easily
force air subcutaneously,

especially in someone
who is post-hysterectomy.

She'd have to be having
sex with a toilet plunger

to put that much air in her.

Plus, it's not crepitus.

I had a punctured lung case
once in medical school...

Totally different. A lung
has a lot of actual air in it.

And so would a vagina if
they had aggressive sex.

Have you ever had aggressive
sex? Because I have.

I'm sure you have.

Ouch.

A penis, no matter how impressive,

cannot put enough air in there
to cause crepitus in her chest.

Okay. What the hell's going on here?

She thinks Debbie's pain
is from subcutaneous air

caused by a vaginal puncture.

A vaginal puncture? From what?

Rough sex.

She doesn't seem the type.

Is that your official diagnosis?

I examined her already...
I didn't feel crepitus,

and, uh, sex can't
produce that much air.

A CT will tell us for sure.

New residents don't get to
order crazy-expensive tests

on a hunch.

What she needs is a psych consult.

Psych?

Yeah.

She just lost her uterus.

It could be traumatizing for a woman.

She's exhausted, anxious,
vague, total-body pain.

This is depression. I've
seen it a bunch of times.

Call psych.

Can I help you?

Yes, I received a phone
call about my father,

Henry Underwood.

I don't need to see him.

I just need to know that he's okay.

You don't want to see him?

Yes. We'd like to see him.

I'll page the doctor.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Your father's right over here.

Henry. How are you feeling?

You should see the other guy.

Not a scratch on him.

Sorry, Randall.

This is not how you
wanted to spend this day.

Not how I wanted to
spend a lot of days, Dad.

Randall. You promised.

I'm sorry. I can only
give you a few minutes.

He really needs to rest.

It's not what you think.

I was mugged.

These two guys out of nowhere...

I was coming to your wedding.

You never showed up for anything.

Now you expect me to believe
you were coming to my wedding?

No, you probably lost a bet on
a game and you couldn't cover it.

No. No, that's not it.

T-there was no bet. There was no game.

When are you gonna get
it through your head

that there is no do-over?

- Randall.
- This is it!

Okay. Let's leave.

- Okay?
- Yeah, she's right.

It's time to go, guys. Come on.

Let's go. I'm sorry. I am so sorry.

You're always really sorry.

You don't want to do this,
okay? You're upsetting your wife.

She's not my wife.

That's my point!

He did this to me on my wedding day!

No, no, no. No, no, no,
no! It's my wedding day!

Randall! Come on!

You are a sad old man!

Jesse, get him... Jesse,
get him out of here!

It's all right. It's okay.

Just calm down. Just relax. Just relax.

So, she is the sister
of the shark-bite victim.

- What's her name?
- Jaydin.

And her boyfriend, Tucker,
is the one who's in surgery.

Dr. Rorish, this is Jaydin.

I-I'm Kaya's sister.

I tried to call, but my battery ran out.

Is she okay? Is Tucker...

Calm down. Take deep
breaths. Deep breaths.

I just... I tried to drive
here as fast as I could,

but the traffic hit.

All right. She's hyperventilating.

Let's get her inside
and sit her down, please.

Follow me this way.

Dr. Kean, can we get her
on a pulse ox, please?

Can you sit right here for a second?

- I-I need to see Kaya and Tucker.
- Okay.

Jaydin. Jaydin. Jaydin.

I want you to slow your breathing down.

Let me have that.

Okay? Just deep breaths.

I'm gonna put this right in your nose.

It's gonna help you breathe
a little bit. All right?

All right. Here we go.

Kaya... Is okay.

And Tucker's in surgery.

But they both need you to be
strong for them, all right?

Okay. You just sit here
and just catch your breath

for a few minutes.

And then I'm gonna take you
back to see Kaya, all right?

- Okay.
- Good job.

How you doing in there, Dr. Dixon?

How do you like our lounge?

Oh, dear god.

Dad.

Tell me everything.

He's in a medically induced coma.

- He came in with a...
- I was asking Dr. Campbell.

I was actually there.

He fell 20, 25 feet.

I treated him on-site,
got him into the ambulance.

By the time we got him to Angels,

he was bleeding inside of his skull.

The pressure needed to be relieved.

Dr. Campbell can walk
you through the surgery.

Excuse me.

Hey.

I wanted to talk to you.

It was gusty as hell up there.

The helicopter suddenly
weathervaned into the wind,

and your brother was
not strapped in yet.

He never should have been in
that helicopter to begin with.

We thought it would
save lives, and it did.

I'm sorry.

I feel responsible for what happened.

You are responsible.

Nothing like a little
bubbly on our wedding night.

He's your father, Randy.

You know, my dad bankrupted
us when I was a kid.

My mom and I, we had to
live in a homeless shelter.

You never told me that.

Let's just leave.

Let's go get married
right now, like we planned.

Can I help you?

Sounds like you had
a real bum for a dad.

E-excuse me?

I had one of those.

I didn't talk to my father for 20 years.

Now he's gone.

It's too late.

I'm sorry... Look, I-I
don't even know you,

and you're gonna give me lessons
on forgiveness and regret?

Mm, nah.

I just want to give you this.

What is this?

Your father's things.

Open it.

It's a tuxedo.

He was coming to the wedding.

Uh, and this fell out of his pocket.

I think it's his toast to you.

Not that I read it, because
that wouldn't be right.

But if I did read it,

I'd have to say
- your father had lots of regrets,

but the one thing he
didn't regret was you.

But I didn't read it, so what do I know?

They must have moved him.

Risa? Where's Mr. Underwood?

- Family?
- Yeah.

Surgery. He was hemorrhaging,
trouble breathing.

O2 dropped.

What's happening?

They had to bring him up to the O.R.

Okay, but is he gonna be okay?

Uh, give me a minute.
I'll find out for you.

Are you crazy?

Why don't you like me?

Why? Look where you are.

You were expressly told "no CT scan,"

and yet, here you are getting a CT scan.

- So?
- So, you have an outsized sense of

entitlement that comes from
years of people kissing your ass.

You don't know me at
all, and I don't know you.

But if I am right about the crepitus,

You'll be glad you helped me.

And if you're wrong?

We'll both get kicked out.

Great sales pitch.

Something is happening to me.

The air's leaking into her throat now.

Something caused this.

Help us figure out what it
is before this gets worse.

The truth, Debbie.

I was stupid.

I let him use a toy.

- What kind of toy?
- Seriously?

That kind of toy.

Yeah. It... It had an air pump.

Something you could
have mentioned earlier.

An air pump? What could
you possibly do with an...

- No, no.
- No. No.

Don't do this.

We need Savetti.

She's going to code! We
don't have time for that!

We need to do something.

I don't know what. It's
the air. It's everywhere.

Wait.

A hyperbaric chamber.

Yes. The pressure will force the
air back to her vascular space.

Okay, you take her. I get Mario, okay?

Hang in there, Debbie.

I told you... I hate her.

I don't want to see her.

Are you really gonna be upset
at your sister over some guy?

'Cause I'll tell you a secret.

I'm a guy. We're not that special.

Tucker's special.

Oh, Kaya.

Um... Are you okay?

Is she okay?

She's tough. She's gonna make it.

No thanks to her.

Seriously?

All of this is your fault.

My fault?

You're the one who begged
Tucker to go surfing.

I didn't beg him. He wanted to go.

No one invited you. You just showed up.

Okay, let's everyone just take
a deep breath. Like right now.

No one wants you here!

The only reason Tucker went to the beach

is because I was going,

and you can't understand that
because you're just a kid.

I'm 13!

Okay, I'm gonna call this round.

Let's let your sister
get some rest, okay?

Fine.

Maybe you can treat her for
being a brat while she's here.

That went well.

His, uh, vitals are steady.

How often do you check them?

Not often.

Truth.

Every 30 seconds.

He could be like this for a couple days.

Maybe more.

Dr. Rorish said you could
take as long as you need.

Mario. She started to crump.

Who? Punctured vagina.

We had to get her into
the hyperbaric chamber.

The hyperbaric chamber?

What the hell are you two talking about?

You got to come quick.

How's my shark victim?

Stable.

- I drew post-ops labs.
- Good.

Okay, I'm gonna order a repeat CBC

and a gram of cefotetan.

Oh, my god.

Page Campbell! We're
going back to the O.R. now!

Come on, Debbie.

Whoa.

Charlotte, talk to me.

It's not working fast
enough. I can barely bag her.

All right, I'm coming in. You
can't. They're already pressurized.

What do I do?

She needs to release the air.

I need, uh...

Scalpel and Betadine.

Now what?

Make a small incision in
the subcu tissue of her neck.

It's not working!

Do not be timid, Charlotte.

You have to cut deeper
through the dermis.

You got this.

There was terror on the
beach here in Malibu today.

A great white shark measuring
approximately 15 feet long

attacked three surfers.

One was pronounced dead at the scene,

with two taken by helicopter
to Angels Memorial Hospital.

And we have just received word
that one of those survivors

of the attack has,
sadly, died of his wounds.

The hospital is not releasing
the name of the victim

at this time, but we are told
that he died during surgery

to repair his extensive wounds.

Is it true?

Is he dead?

I'm sorry, Jaydin.

And I'm sorry you had
to find out that way.

He was all alone.

I should have been with him.
I should have been there.

I want to see him.

Can you take me to him?

I can't.

We have to wait for
his parents to get here.

They're on a plane.

What am I supposed to do? Just sit here?

Does Kaya know?

No.

And she can't.

Not yet.

She has 120 stitches,

and she's lost a great deal of blood.

She needs to stay calm right now.

It's just... it's just
gonna break her heart.

As much pain as you're
in right now, Jaydin...

You can't tell her.

Not yet.

You need to be strong for her.

Who's gonna be strong for me?

I can't do it.

I'm not apologizing.

If that's why you're here,
you should just leave.

Oh, really?

Now you're not talking to me?

And you're supposed
to be the mature one.

Fine, Jaydin.

Be a baby.

I'll let you get some rest.

Stop!

He's dead, isn't he?

Kaya...

Just leave!

Kaya, I'm so sorry.

Just leave me alone!

Please. I'm sorry.

Please, just go.

Is he gonna die?

He's lost a lot of blood.
He's in pretty bad shape.

Doc.

Is my father going to die?

I'm an optimist.

Me too.

Hey, pop.

It was a nice tuxedo.

I saw it.

I also saw this.

You wrote a toast and everything?

You hate talking in front of people.

Aren't you glad you got out of that one?

"Randall...

"I remember when you were a little boy.

"You followed me around
everywhere I went,

"and you needed me for everything.

"You drove me crazy
sometimes, but I loved it."

"You were my boy.

"And I loved being your dad."

"Well, it's been a long time
since you've needed me, though.

"A long time since you said
you wanted to be like me

"when you grew up."

"And now you're the one I
want to be when I grow up."

I still need you.

You hear me?

I'm your boy, and I still need you.

Kaya.

Kaya.

I know this must be impossible
for you to understand.

You think I'm just a kid?

So I can't understand anything?

I think you're grieving.

Grief is something that
nobody understands at any age.

I don't want him to leave.

I want him to come back.

I know.

I know, and as crappy as that is,

you're not the only one
who has to bear this.

Jaydin doesn't understand
this any better than you do,

and her heart is breaking just as badly.

She thinks it's only her, though.

She'll never get what I'm feeling.

She's your sister.

She's the only one who'll
get what you're feeling.

Hey.

Talk to her. All right?

It's the only way you two
are gonna get through this.

And I wouldn't be
telling you any of this...

If I thought you were just a kid.

Jaydin.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Hmm. The crepitus is gone.

Subcutaneous emphysema?

Who caught that?

Noa did... With Dr. Savetti's help.

Good job.

All of you.

Savetti, let's go do some charting

and let these two have
a much-needed break.

What was that about?

I need a friend here.

And I think you do, too.

Right?

You missed that one, didn't you?

- I got distracted.
- I let them run on their own.

Sorry.

Second year is different.

You're not just responsible
for yourself anymore.

When you're supervising a first-year,

you're responsible for them.

It's not your fault.

I'm sorry I blamed you.

You had every right to.

No, I didn't.

You were doing the right thing.

Sometimes, that doesn't
absolve us of the consequences.

We, um... Haven't officially met yet.

I'm Angus.

Ethan.

We get guys from your unit once a year.

They're either sent here as a punishment

for doing something wrong

or a reward for doing something good.

Which one are you?

Both.
