Nurses (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 6 - Risky Behaviour - full transcript
The odd to being killed
by your own toothbrush,
are about 642,000 to 1.
But those odds dramatically
increase if you're stressed
and totally burnt out.
Now, I'm not saying
if you're tired, not to
brush your teeth, but...
- Yo! Watch it, man!
- Dude, I'm sorry.
I'm so torched right now,
I can barely see straight.
Bro, when was the last
time you took a day off?
- I'm looking for a Sinead O'Rourke.
- Sinead? She's our boss.
Great!
- Sign here.
- Yeah.
- Initials okay?
- Yeah.
Okay. And there you go.
Oh no, no, no.
Don't look at me, I've got
enough problems of my own.
Boop!
Guess what happened today, you guys.
- I went on a date this morning.
- I'm barely up right now,
how have you already gone on
a date this morning, today,
- earlier than work?
- You know what?
Priorities, Wolf.
Early bird gets the boo.
So, he's a physiotherapist.
He asked me to a Sunrise yoga class.
- Oh, that's sweet!
- That's weird.
But it could have been worse.
I mean, it could have been hot yoga.
When class ended, he didn't
wipe off his yoga mat.
- Oh!
- No. Nuh-uh.
No. Funky yoga mat,
funky dude. Bad funky.
Right? That's exactly what I thought.
Speaking of hygiene issues,
you smell a little ripe.
No, I put on deodorant today. I think.
Or was that yesterday? I don't know.
- What day is it today?
- I'm worried about you, roomie.
Seriously, nap on your break, please.
Good morning, beautiful people!
Naz, you're in Radiology.
Grace, floating.
Ashley, triage.
Keon... Mr. Colby,
Okay, let him know he's
in Radiology as well.
And Wolf, the tireless tadpole,
you have the pleasure of shadowing
me after you finished your charting.
What's with the happy?
I don't know,
but it makes him even
scarier, doesn't it?
Have a fun day, buddy.
Ah.
Pick up the pace, Knight. Charts.
- Thank you.
- Oooh! No, no, no, no!
Absolutely not! Nope!
- Happy birthday?
- Happy birthday!
Get those out of my ER.
You're up, Grace, get on it.
- Talk to me.
- Vivian Adem, 16. She crashed inside
a fast food joint. Sudden
severe abdominal pain.
BP's 110 over 60. She's been in and out.
Hi. My name is Grace. I'm
gonna touch your tummy, okay?
- No!
- I know, I'm sorry. I have to do this.
What about there? Does it hurt there?
Generalized abdominal
pain. Involuntary guarding.
Pop her up in ultrasound.
In the meantime, we
get her some pain relief.
Okay, come on.
- Grace?
- Hmm?
Totally wrong time, but drinks
the other night, I had fun.
- Yeah, me too.
- We should do it again sometime.
Sure.
Where's Ruby? Ruby?
- Vivian, what's wrong?
- My sister. We were getting
breakfast together, she went
to the bathroom. Where is she?
Um, okay, don't worry.
Oh! She's spitting out blood! Come on!
We gotta go now! Bay 5, let's go! Hurry!
Damn, girl!
Can I call you that? Who are you
and how can I get your number?
I'm not your girl. I'm
your nurse, Nazneen.
So...
you got doored on your way to work, huh?
- Yeah.
- Ouch!
The doc you saw earlier
has requisitioned an X-ray.
I'm gonna clean your cut now,
and check your collarbone after, okay?
Okay.
Do you know one of the meanings
of Nazneen is "beautiful"?
Exquisitely beautiful actually.
Veer means brave.
I know.
So, Mr. Brave,
what I don't know
is why you smell like alcohol this early
- in the morning.
- Oh, girl, that's 'cause
my cousin Dev and I
were getting lit, yo.
He aced his med school exams.
- Can you lift your arms?
- No. No.
But, you know, I could really
use something for the pain
though, like Oxy, T3,
laughing gas. If that's out... You know,
- if that's still a thing, yo.
- Mr. Sikka...
Come on! Hey, I'm not
what you think I am, right?
I'm just really in a lot
of pain here, and I could...
You know, I could just...
Hey, I actually realized I know you.
No, I'm sure you don't.
Oh, for sure I know that face though.
Well, it is one of a kind.
Okay, I need to get you to X-ray.
I'll get you a wheelchair for the walk.
You're not gonna offer me your shoulder?
Not today.
How about Instagram?
Do you have Instagram?
My sister.
You have to try to stay still.
It's okay. We'll have someone bring
her here as soon as the police
locate her, okay? We just need to
work on getting you better now.
You don't understand. I'm
the one who looks after her.
My dad's a pilot, he's
doing it overnight.
- Stay still, please.
- We're almost done.
- Looks hazy.
- Could be an ulcer.
Suggests a perforation. We
should get her up to the OR.
Okay.
Sorry to interrupt.
I am Detective Walker.
- Did you find Ruby?
- I've got officers patrolling
the area, but so far we haven't
been able to locate your sister.
- Oh.
- She might have tried
- to walk home or school.
- Ruby.
It's okay, we're gonna find her.
Hmm... I'll be right back.
I'll get you those addresses.
What's up, baby girl?
Hey, mama.
Uhhh...
Dear, Dr. Banks...
Candy Crush time is over.
This is Veer.
He's gonna need your help
into getting into his gown.
I told her she would love to assist.
And she didn't go for it?
- Shocking!
- I wanted to show her
- my cheese-grate abs, man.
- Thank you.
Come on, Parmesan. You can show me.
Hey, your loss.
- But my gain.
- Alright.
- Sinead.
- Speak fast.
I'm one year closer to my grave.
Oh, uh... okay.
My patient cracked his collarbone
- and is in significant pain.
- So ask a doctor
- to write you an order.
- That's the thing.
I'm worried he might
also be a drug seeker.
Should I still ask for narcotics?
Go with your gut.
If it walks like a duck,
quacks like a duck,
it's probably a duck.
I didn't ask about... ducks.
- Is that a yes or no?
- Yeah, that...
that's a firm no.
Aaah... for real, this
pain is killing me;
- can you help me out, yo?
- Acetaminophen,
- best I can do.
- Aaah...
Ha-ha!
Nah, the best you can do
is give me your number,
we go to Albion Cinemas,
watch Bollywood movies
and throw popcorn at
the screen. Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Our social worker's number on here,
I really think you
should give him a call.
Wait. Oh, wow!
You're... Are you Nazneen?
Are you Nazneen Khan?
Ha-ha! I got it!
Bollywood child star Nazneen Khan.
Holy shit! My cousin
Dev was in love with you.
If there's nothing more...
Of course there's more.
You gotta do your catchphrase,
the warrior dressed as the baby cow.
- No. Now sit up straight.
- Ah, please.
Please, please, please! Yo, Dev
and I watched all your movies.
Yo, you didn't help me with
the pain, the least you can do
is anesthetize me with your talent.
The coast is clear.
Moomoo, I love you!
- You still got it.
- I know!
Now, let's get you discharged. Ha-ha!
Nazneen Khan, wow!
Because you're cheating
in some way I can't figure
out. How did I get that?
- That's the worst card I could've had.
- Always have the worst cards.
- If you weren't cheating...
- I'm so sorry
the charting took so long.
My brain isn't quite...
Don't apologize. Gave me more
time to fleece the sarge here.
Here we go!
Nothing. Deuce dime, double skunk.
I know I'm tired, but
could you understand
- what he just said?
- Wolf, this is my best friend
and the world's worst cribbage player,
- Sergeant Edward Miller.
- Nice to meet you, sir.
Hey, he looks like he's in the movie
with that kid who wakes
up in grown-up's body.
Come on, man. Everything's
too big for him.
The table's too big,
the shoes are too big...
- What's it called?
- Big.
Big, yeah.
Edward and I have worked
together in Afghanistan.
This man saved my life. Twice.
- It's dope.
- Yet, he still insists
on cheating me out of
my military pension.
Cheating? Ha!
Sarge would rather be waterboarded
than part with his money.
Oh, so because I'm Scottish, I'm cheap?
You know that's racist, right?
A Black man can't be racist
against a Scottish guy;
- it just doesn't work that way.
- Yeah. Okay, now he has a point there.
Edward's here for his
monthly lung volume checkup
for his pulmonary disease. You're up.
Oh, wait. I've never done this before.
I know. So let's hustle up, Buttercup.
Vivian, I'm giving you a fresh
dose of hydromorphone for the pain
and something for the nausea.
Trying to keep you as
comfortable as possible, okay?
Dr. Rossi is good to go in the OR.
I can't go into surgery
'til I know Ruby's found.
You don't understand, I'm
the one who takes care of her.
The patient doesn't consent to surgery.
But she's a minor. Her dad's
probably still in the air.
Priority is saving her life.
I know. No! Vivian, please
come on, I'm on your side.
Pulse is 120 and threading.
BP's 80 over 50.
She's going in septic shock.
Push a gram of ampicillin.
Get all the lines open, let's go!
- Let's move!
- Vivian! No!
No, it's okay.
Code pink first floor, unit 7.
Don't. Don't let her die!
It's okay. I got you now.
Please!
What do you tell the patient?
- I'll test your airways and lung volume?
- Correct. Then?
We're gonna do three efforts
to test the lung volume.
- What he said.
- Hey, take this seriously.
Hey, stand down, Master Corporal,
- he's an FNG.
- What's an FNG?
You don't want to know. What's next?
Okay. I'm gonna put my tongue down.
I'm gonna close my
mouth around this piece.
I'm gonna blow up fast three times.
Just like I'm playing the bagpipes.
You're gonna write down the numbers.
- Okay, blow away, Danny Boy.
- Danny Boy's Irish, but...
I'm just gonna write
down the numbers here.
I want to order a full workup.
I think you just want me to stay longer
so you can steal more crib money.
Edward, your lung capacity
values are significantly lower
- than on your last visit.
- Don't look so serious.
Come on. It's just a bunch of hot air.
Okay, let's get the sergeant
ready for transport.
You grab an oxygen tank
and take him to the lab.
Tell Jamil I want him bumped
to the front of the line.
- I'll meet you up there.
- On it like a bonnet, sir.
Keon Colby to Obstetrics.
- Keon Colby to Obstetrics.
- Hey, lady.
Here you go.
- Can I get you something to eat?
- How much longer will it take?
I don't know,
but I'm sure Dr. Rossi is
taking great care of your sister.
My mommy died in this hospital.
Oh, my gosh. I'm so sorry.
I was 9.
Was she sick?
Sick in her head.
Mr. Adem's plane just landed.
- I've sent my guys to bring him right over.
- Great!
Hear that? Your daddy's on his way here.
I don't want him to be sad about Vi.
How about you let me
worry about that, okay?
Now come on.
Let's go get you a treat,
shall we?
Close the door.
Actually, leave it open.
I'm just gonna cut to the chase. Hmm...
What happened between us the other day,
- it can't happen again.
- Okay.
- Not at work.
- So what about other places?
Keon, I like you... a lot.
Don't get smug about it.
There is a power dynamic
between us that we...
that I need to address.
I don't mind you being in charge
- if that's what you're asking.
- I do. In a delivery room
I have to be, but not in a
relationship. It's gotta be 50-50.
Cool. So, we can just take
turns being boss in the bedroom.
I am a single mother
with a busy practice;
I don't have time...
You sure got lots of excuses, though.
Keon, we're in very
different places in our lives,
and you need to ask yourself
if you're gonna be okay
with what I have the capacity to give.
Okay, I'll think about it.
You know it's weird how
sometimes talking about doing it
is almost sexier than actually doing it.
Think about it.
I am thinking about it. Right now.
You're okay? You're comfy?
Oh, I make a living. Thank God.
Come on, that was a joke.
Oh, man, I'm so sorry.
I'm not sharp today. I'm...
You got like the... thousand-yard stare.
Did you know that they coined
that term during the
Second World War and it's
a symptom of battlefield
exhaustion and stress.
Except I am not on a battlefield.
Oh yeah? Don't kid yourself.
I guess I've been burning
the candle on both ends.
- Mm-hmm?
- Running into financial difficulties.
Yeah. I mean, well, I think there's only
one financial difficulty...
no money.
- That would be the one!
- Yeah. Yeah!
You got it, man.
You can't work yourself into the ground,
Okay? Because you are
gonna make yourself sick.
And that is straight
from the donkey's mouth.
- What's going on?
- I'm not sure.
Oh, no, no, no. I think...
I think we're stuck.
Hmmm... okay.
I spy with my little eye a bouquet.
Yeah!
Good work!
- Okay, your turn...
- Sorry. Sorry, sorry
to jump the queue, but
I'm in a bit of a rush.
But you can all put your
drinks on my tab. Grace.
- Look who it is.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- And who's this?
Oh! Uh, this is my patient's sister.
Don't worry, your sister's
in the best hospital
- in the entire universe.
- Thomas, I know you're busy,
why don't you go on
ahead and I'll catch up.
I want to say a proper hello to Grace.
I can't wait for this
bureaucratic BS to be over,
so I can get back to running
the hospital. Or three.
I thought he would never stop talking.
It is so good to see
you've landed on your feet.
- We miss you at the General.
- Yeah. I miss you guys too.
Are you working with him?
No, I was appointed
nursing rep for the merger.
No, I would never have volunteered
- to be Hamilton's sidekick.
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, Linda, um, do you
want to get coffee later?
Yeah. Yeah, I'd love that.
How about I text you after
all the paper pushing's done.
- Great!
- Okay!
- It's good to see you.
- You too.
Yeah.
Sorry. Uh, okay.
I think she's still deciding,
but I will take the one
with the sprinkles, and I'll
pay for those myself. Thank you.
Which one you're thinking?
Blue?
There's no reception.
- You pressed the emergency button?
- Oh, right. Yes, yes, alright.
Security.
- Hello?
Wait, are you claustrophobic?
Being in a hole for six
months will do that to you.
Okay, try to relax.
We're going to get you out
of there as fast as we can.
Punch it again.
You really don't need to press
it again, I'm already on the line.
- Okay.
- Wolf,
- can you hear me?
Aaah...
Not feeling so good here,
- Corporal.
He's looking a little gray. No offence.
And he's wheezing quite a bit.
Okay, you need to listen
to every word I say.
- You feel me?
- Yes, sir.
Place your palm on Edward's
chest and breathe with him.
Slow his breathing down.
- I want to get out.
- It's okay.
- Okay. Hey, hey.
Edward, Edward, hey, hey, hey.
- Let go of me, FNG.
- Don't push him!
- He's fighting me, Damien.
- Come on, come on.
Come on, come on. You're okay,
- you're okay.
- I was on two tours;
I am not going down
in a freaking elevator.
Plug the tube into the tank first,
Okay. It's alright. It's alright.
- What are you doing?!
- The tank's
Didn't you check the pressure
when you grabbed it?
- I didn't think I needed to.
- Bag him! Do it now!
Hey. Right here, right
here, right here. Hey.
Hey. Vivian's out of surgery.
You want to go see your sister?
This way.
Opiate overdose.
Pulse is thready. BP 90 over 40.
- One breath every 10 seconds.
- Wait!
- What's happening?
- Stand aside, please.
Can I stay with him?
Please, he was my patient.
Go on, so.
- There she is!
- You're okay!
So sorry I left you.
I love you. You know that, right?
Oh, hey.
- Hey, you okay? What happened?
- I'm so sorry, Daddy,
I didn't mean to leave her alone.
I know, honey, I'm just...
happy you're okay.
I'm John Adem.
- Hi.
- Oh, hi. I'm Grace,
- Vivian's nurse.
- Thank you.
So what happened? Was it her appendix?
No. Vivian had an
ulcer which perforated.
An ulcer?
Is that common in a child her age?
Not common, no.
Ruby told me about your wife.
I'm so sorry to hear.
Yes, uh... We don't
like to talk about that.
We can't change the past;
all we can do is move forward.
Right, girls?
Mr. Adem, I hate to confess this
because it is totally my fault,
but all Little Ruby has had to eat today
- is a donut.
- Oh!
She could probably use a proper meal.
And Vivian should get some rest.
- Right. Yes.
- But I don't want to leave Vi.
I know, honey. Hey, get rest, okay?
And you food. Come on, let's go.
Donut.
- So what kind of donut was it?
- Ha-ha!
You know, your dad doesn't...
but think you do want to talk about it.
Your mom?
I'm a really good listener.
You can leave too, please.
Okay.
Hello there, fellow underslept,
constantly hungry,
deeply fatigued human.
Are you okay?
Yeah. No. Just a patient
I'm not sure how to help.
Have you tried a fleet enema?
No. Seriously, my grandpa
Roy was a GP back at home;
his answer to absolutely
everything was a fleet enema.
Thanks, but I'm not entirely sure
how that's gonna help in this case.
Actually, maybe like an emotional enema.
Try that.
Hey. You guys hear?
Wolf's stuck in an elevator with
some guy with respiratory distress.
- What?!
- Yeah. Damien's gotta monitor at Security.
Oh, my God! The poor guy's
exhausted, I gotta go help him.
- Cover my patients for me.
- Ash!
- Who are your patients?
- Place your left thumb
all the way around the
seal and then squeeze.
I can't get a proper seal;
the oxygen keeps seeping out.
- One. One, two. One.
- Attaboy, Wolf.
- Ash, is that you?
- your patients, Collins.
- Yeah. Keon and Grace are on it.
- So nice to hear a friendly voice.
- He didn't mean it like that.
Is his chest expanding?
Dude, check it with your stethoscope.
Listen for decreased air entry
His right and left side
don't sound the same.
Oh no, you pushed too
hard and caused a pneumo.
- You collapsed his lung.
_
Oh, my God!
Oh, he's stable, but in
a medically induced coma.
Is it, uh...
is it propofol or pentobarbital?
Pentobarbital.
Good. Good. Less chance
for respiratory problems.
Ah. You're the cousin in med school.
Yeah, uh... I'm Dev.
And its early day, so...
I'm his nurse, Naz.
So what do we do now, Naz?
Now, we wait.
At every party,
he was always the one buying
everyone trays of shots.
Always wanted to go to the
next club, the next bar...
... keep the party going.
When someone's in that
mode, there's nothing
- you can do to stop them.
- No. I knew he had a problem.
I should have pushed
harder for him to get help.
He was drunk when he came in earlier.
I gave him a pamphlet,
and I discharged him.
Hey, hey, it's not your fault.
Right back at you.
No. Yeah, I mean... it was Veer's way.
He always had to take charge.
And now... Hey, do you
think he can hear me?
If there something you
want to say, you should.
I feel so strange treating
him like a patient.
So treat him like your brother.
He can hear you.
I'm sure he can.
Okay.
You always had to do things
your way, didn't you, Veer?
But not this time because this time
you can't talk back.
This time, you have to listen to me.
I'm not letting you go.
You have to stay alive,
you have to keep fighting.
_
I know you're a born fighter.
Uh, look, I... I don't want to get you
in trouble, but could you
help me with something?
It's kind of a family tradition.
Damien, help me. The
tank's almost out of oxygen.
Don't die, okay? Don't
die. Please, just tell me
- I told you what to do, but
- you were too stupid to do it!
- Hey, that's not fair,
- he hasn't slept.
- And that's my fault?!
No, but he's scared, okay,
so cut him some slack.
It's working. It's working.
We're moving!
Wolf, get off on the fourth!
Let's get him to ICU now!
I should take your license!
Get out of my sight!
Vivian...
I'm just gonna check your
vitals if that's alright.
- Your dad and Ruby?
- Still downstairs.
She probably can't decide what to order.
She's a Gemini, has
trouble making up her mind.
Ah. Yes, I witnessed
that with the donut.
I'm Taurus, we're natural empaths.
Hmm.
Maybe... you'll be a nurse.
No way. I hate hospitals.
No offence.
None taken.
Especially this one.
Your mom...
Right, no fly zone.
You know, I... I know what it's like
to grow up too soon.
For me, it was for my mom
'cause my dad was, well,
someone you needed to be
protected from sometimes.
- My dad's not like that.
- No, I know.
He seems like a really good dad,
which is why I think you could talk.
I can't. He can't.
Before she, uh...
It's okay to say it.
Killed herself...
... I told her I hated her.
Ohhh...
Then, I slammed my door
and turned up my music.
And then she...
My dad doesn't know...
... about the fight, that...
that the last thing I said to her was...
Oh, honey, that isn't your fault.
After that, I just did what I had to do.
To survive.
I get it. Believe me, I do.
But I think everything you've
done up until this point
has been totally right.
Everything.
I think sometimes that things that we do
to survive stop working.
Sometimes, they even hurt us.
Well, maybe it's time
to try something else.
- Oh, thank you.
- Thank you for making the time.
- Are you kidding?
- I look for excuses
to come home late. Ty is
collecting bonsai again.
Bonsai!
So what is it you wanted to talk about?
Hmmm....
I actually want to ask you something.
Mm-hmm.
You remember that day at the General
when you saw me in the
OR crying by myself?
Do you know why I was crying?
Grace, this isn't a path you
want to go down; it's a dead-end.
It never turns out well for the nurses.
"For the nurses"?
No one ever wins against him.
Lungs collapse all the time.
Damien... was making it sound
like it's the first time
it's ever happened.
- Thank you.
- But you know, you should
really... take a couple of shifts off,
sleep, you know, so you
don't make any more mistakes.
Well, I'm making mistakes
because I have to work extra
shifts to pay for my meds.
Now, if I didn't work as much,
I'd be a way better nurse.
Oh, Sinead.
Look, if she knows I'm
administering drugs for you,
- she'll have my head on a chopping block.
- Ash, I'm sorry.
Look, I'm... Obviously, I have
zero confidence left in myself.
You got it. Waste this for me.
Hey, so I gave it a lot
of thought, and I think
- we're great together. I'm in.
- Keon...
I don't know, I don't
need a second opinion, Doc.
This is a 50-50 thing, remember?
- Okay.
- Okay.
So, what's next?
Well...
since one of our rules is
nothing can ever happen at work...
Nothing at work
after today.
But today is bottomless.
It's about to be.
Look familiar?
It's your dad's dagger.
He gave it to my Bapa when he was sick.
You need to fight hard.
Our whole family's energy
is coming through this
dagger and going into you.
Feel it. Soak it in.
You're not alone, Veer,
you have all of us.
Listen to his words, Veer.
My brother, I promise
I will get you into recovery.
Yeah, I'll be there
every step of the way,
step by step.
We'll do it together.
I'm never gonna let you go.
Fight that and come back to us. Please.
Hi.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Aw!
- Just cancelled my flights
for the next few weeks.
- I want to stay close to home.
- I think that's a good idea.
So, how is she?
Still a little tender from the surgery.
She seems to be recovering
well physically...
I was married for 17 years;
I know when there's a "but" coming.
Mr. Adem,
losing your wife...
with two small girls;
I can't imagine what
you've gone through.
You probably can actually.
You do with people on that day,
their worst day,
every shift.
How do you do it without falling apart?
- I don't know.
- Hmm.
I guess...
... I kind of find it
a privilege
to be able to be there,
bear witness.
You know, to sit in the
soup with their families
and offer whatever kind
of support that I can.
That's what she needs from me, isn't it?
To sit in the soup with her?
I've known that for a long time, just...
I don't know how to do it.
Maybe I can help with that.
Thank you.
Yeah, this is the worst Indian food
- I've ever had.
- You're lucky I'm even
letting you eat in here.
Yeah. Come to my parents' samosa
shop, and I'll treat you to a feast.
Your cousin already promised
to treat me to the movies.
He did?
Okay.
God! He loves life.
He lives it fast and loose.
We had a million conversations
about him slowing down, but, uh,
I could never get through.
I know what you mean.
Look, I... You look so much like...
Nazneen Khan, film star
Aaliyah Khan's daughter?
Yeah, that's right.
Wow! Oh, okay, um,
I was madly in love with you.
- Why did you fall out of love?
- Just distance.
You disappeared completely.
What happened?
I, um...
I was basically you
a few years ago.
My twin brother, Amir,
who also loved to party...
... he wrapped his car around a pole.
Oh, my God, I am... so sorry.
There were a million recovery attempts.
The never-ending
rollercoaster of the Amir show.
And then when the show ended,
I needed a fresh start.
And now here I am
with one half of me missing.
He would be proud of you.
Hey.
I think Vivian has something
she wants to tell you guys.
- Yeah.
- Impact in **.
The old guy asked for you specifically.
Oh, you gotta be kidding me.
Surprise!
You guys... Now get back to work!
- Happy birthday!
- Happy birthday!
Make a wish.
Thank you.
So, being exhausted,
overworked, stressed,
that's just part of the human condition.
- And all that matters in the end
- _
is how you choose to
manage that stress.
And how you handle it
can either make you a hero
or desperate.
- You're lucky, he's gonna be okay.
- I'm sorry.
You are not allowed to
pick up one extra shift.
Not until you figure out how
to handle the ones you have
without hurting patients.
Is that understood?
I'm in.
Nice work, buddy.
It's 200.
For half the bottle?
Beats the crap out of
a nurse's wage, huh?
Keep it coming.
Hi, Grace.
Hi.
Are you alright?
Yeah. You?
Yeah. I'm sorry, I'm just tired.
Multiple deadlines, and I gotta fill in
for Hamilton at the
stakeholders' meeting tomorrow.
Mhm.
Hey, um,
are these rumours about him true?
What rumours? What did you hear?
Well, nothing specific,
just some nurses at the
General have been saying
some things about him
being inappropriate.
God. God.
You scared me. I thought maybe
something serious had happened.
- You don't think that's serious?
- Of course it's serious
if it were true.
You know I'm all about
the "Me Too" stuff, you
know that; it's just...
it's not really the case here.
How can you be so sure?
Because I've spent
enough time with the guy
to know. He's a powerful man
at the top of his game and
with it being so zeitgeist,
crabs are bound to crawl
out of the woodwork.
Crabs?
- You know what I mean.
- No, I'm not sure that I do.
Who's spreading this crap?
Because I need to take
care of this merger.
The merger or yourself?
And yes, it would do big
things for me at the firm,
so what are these names?
You don't even care for a second
that this might be true. You
have these women get fired
just to protect your life plans.
And what about me? Am I
a part of your life plans?
Of course you're a
part of my life, Grace.
- Of course you are.
- Really?
- Yes.
- Does that include a seat at the table
at your wedding?
- Where is this coming from?
- You know...
... your life plan will
always revolve around you,
because I'm just a moving piece in it,
but that's okay because
for me, I guess...
... I was using you too
- to survive.
- Survive what?!
- What are you talking about?
- But that isn't working anymore,
so it's time to try something else.
- Grace...
- Kabir, we're done.
You keep making your plans,
and I'm gonna make
some new ones on my own.
by your own toothbrush,
are about 642,000 to 1.
But those odds dramatically
increase if you're stressed
and totally burnt out.
Now, I'm not saying
if you're tired, not to
brush your teeth, but...
- Yo! Watch it, man!
- Dude, I'm sorry.
I'm so torched right now,
I can barely see straight.
Bro, when was the last
time you took a day off?
- I'm looking for a Sinead O'Rourke.
- Sinead? She's our boss.
Great!
- Sign here.
- Yeah.
- Initials okay?
- Yeah.
Okay. And there you go.
Oh no, no, no.
Don't look at me, I've got
enough problems of my own.
Boop!
Guess what happened today, you guys.
- I went on a date this morning.
- I'm barely up right now,
how have you already gone on
a date this morning, today,
- earlier than work?
- You know what?
Priorities, Wolf.
Early bird gets the boo.
So, he's a physiotherapist.
He asked me to a Sunrise yoga class.
- Oh, that's sweet!
- That's weird.
But it could have been worse.
I mean, it could have been hot yoga.
When class ended, he didn't
wipe off his yoga mat.
- Oh!
- No. Nuh-uh.
No. Funky yoga mat,
funky dude. Bad funky.
Right? That's exactly what I thought.
Speaking of hygiene issues,
you smell a little ripe.
No, I put on deodorant today. I think.
Or was that yesterday? I don't know.
- What day is it today?
- I'm worried about you, roomie.
Seriously, nap on your break, please.
Good morning, beautiful people!
Naz, you're in Radiology.
Grace, floating.
Ashley, triage.
Keon... Mr. Colby,
Okay, let him know he's
in Radiology as well.
And Wolf, the tireless tadpole,
you have the pleasure of shadowing
me after you finished your charting.
What's with the happy?
I don't know,
but it makes him even
scarier, doesn't it?
Have a fun day, buddy.
Ah.
Pick up the pace, Knight. Charts.
- Thank you.
- Oooh! No, no, no, no!
Absolutely not! Nope!
- Happy birthday?
- Happy birthday!
Get those out of my ER.
You're up, Grace, get on it.
- Talk to me.
- Vivian Adem, 16. She crashed inside
a fast food joint. Sudden
severe abdominal pain.
BP's 110 over 60. She's been in and out.
Hi. My name is Grace. I'm
gonna touch your tummy, okay?
- No!
- I know, I'm sorry. I have to do this.
What about there? Does it hurt there?
Generalized abdominal
pain. Involuntary guarding.
Pop her up in ultrasound.
In the meantime, we
get her some pain relief.
Okay, come on.
- Grace?
- Hmm?
Totally wrong time, but drinks
the other night, I had fun.
- Yeah, me too.
- We should do it again sometime.
Sure.
Where's Ruby? Ruby?
- Vivian, what's wrong?
- My sister. We were getting
breakfast together, she went
to the bathroom. Where is she?
Um, okay, don't worry.
Oh! She's spitting out blood! Come on!
We gotta go now! Bay 5, let's go! Hurry!
Damn, girl!
Can I call you that? Who are you
and how can I get your number?
I'm not your girl. I'm
your nurse, Nazneen.
So...
you got doored on your way to work, huh?
- Yeah.
- Ouch!
The doc you saw earlier
has requisitioned an X-ray.
I'm gonna clean your cut now,
and check your collarbone after, okay?
Okay.
Do you know one of the meanings
of Nazneen is "beautiful"?
Exquisitely beautiful actually.
Veer means brave.
I know.
So, Mr. Brave,
what I don't know
is why you smell like alcohol this early
- in the morning.
- Oh, girl, that's 'cause
my cousin Dev and I
were getting lit, yo.
He aced his med school exams.
- Can you lift your arms?
- No. No.
But, you know, I could really
use something for the pain
though, like Oxy, T3,
laughing gas. If that's out... You know,
- if that's still a thing, yo.
- Mr. Sikka...
Come on! Hey, I'm not
what you think I am, right?
I'm just really in a lot
of pain here, and I could...
You know, I could just...
Hey, I actually realized I know you.
No, I'm sure you don't.
Oh, for sure I know that face though.
Well, it is one of a kind.
Okay, I need to get you to X-ray.
I'll get you a wheelchair for the walk.
You're not gonna offer me your shoulder?
Not today.
How about Instagram?
Do you have Instagram?
My sister.
You have to try to stay still.
It's okay. We'll have someone bring
her here as soon as the police
locate her, okay? We just need to
work on getting you better now.
You don't understand. I'm
the one who looks after her.
My dad's a pilot, he's
doing it overnight.
- Stay still, please.
- We're almost done.
- Looks hazy.
- Could be an ulcer.
Suggests a perforation. We
should get her up to the OR.
Okay.
Sorry to interrupt.
I am Detective Walker.
- Did you find Ruby?
- I've got officers patrolling
the area, but so far we haven't
been able to locate your sister.
- Oh.
- She might have tried
- to walk home or school.
- Ruby.
It's okay, we're gonna find her.
Hmm... I'll be right back.
I'll get you those addresses.
What's up, baby girl?
Hey, mama.
Uhhh...
Dear, Dr. Banks...
Candy Crush time is over.
This is Veer.
He's gonna need your help
into getting into his gown.
I told her she would love to assist.
And she didn't go for it?
- Shocking!
- I wanted to show her
- my cheese-grate abs, man.
- Thank you.
Come on, Parmesan. You can show me.
Hey, your loss.
- But my gain.
- Alright.
- Sinead.
- Speak fast.
I'm one year closer to my grave.
Oh, uh... okay.
My patient cracked his collarbone
- and is in significant pain.
- So ask a doctor
- to write you an order.
- That's the thing.
I'm worried he might
also be a drug seeker.
Should I still ask for narcotics?
Go with your gut.
If it walks like a duck,
quacks like a duck,
it's probably a duck.
I didn't ask about... ducks.
- Is that a yes or no?
- Yeah, that...
that's a firm no.
Aaah... for real, this
pain is killing me;
- can you help me out, yo?
- Acetaminophen,
- best I can do.
- Aaah...
Ha-ha!
Nah, the best you can do
is give me your number,
we go to Albion Cinemas,
watch Bollywood movies
and throw popcorn at
the screen. Ha-ha-ha-ha!
Our social worker's number on here,
I really think you
should give him a call.
Wait. Oh, wow!
You're... Are you Nazneen?
Are you Nazneen Khan?
Ha-ha! I got it!
Bollywood child star Nazneen Khan.
Holy shit! My cousin
Dev was in love with you.
If there's nothing more...
Of course there's more.
You gotta do your catchphrase,
the warrior dressed as the baby cow.
- No. Now sit up straight.
- Ah, please.
Please, please, please! Yo, Dev
and I watched all your movies.
Yo, you didn't help me with
the pain, the least you can do
is anesthetize me with your talent.
The coast is clear.
Moomoo, I love you!
- You still got it.
- I know!
Now, let's get you discharged. Ha-ha!
Nazneen Khan, wow!
Because you're cheating
in some way I can't figure
out. How did I get that?
- That's the worst card I could've had.
- Always have the worst cards.
- If you weren't cheating...
- I'm so sorry
the charting took so long.
My brain isn't quite...
Don't apologize. Gave me more
time to fleece the sarge here.
Here we go!
Nothing. Deuce dime, double skunk.
I know I'm tired, but
could you understand
- what he just said?
- Wolf, this is my best friend
and the world's worst cribbage player,
- Sergeant Edward Miller.
- Nice to meet you, sir.
Hey, he looks like he's in the movie
with that kid who wakes
up in grown-up's body.
Come on, man. Everything's
too big for him.
The table's too big,
the shoes are too big...
- What's it called?
- Big.
Big, yeah.
Edward and I have worked
together in Afghanistan.
This man saved my life. Twice.
- It's dope.
- Yet, he still insists
on cheating me out of
my military pension.
Cheating? Ha!
Sarge would rather be waterboarded
than part with his money.
Oh, so because I'm Scottish, I'm cheap?
You know that's racist, right?
A Black man can't be racist
against a Scottish guy;
- it just doesn't work that way.
- Yeah. Okay, now he has a point there.
Edward's here for his
monthly lung volume checkup
for his pulmonary disease. You're up.
Oh, wait. I've never done this before.
I know. So let's hustle up, Buttercup.
Vivian, I'm giving you a fresh
dose of hydromorphone for the pain
and something for the nausea.
Trying to keep you as
comfortable as possible, okay?
Dr. Rossi is good to go in the OR.
I can't go into surgery
'til I know Ruby's found.
You don't understand, I'm
the one who takes care of her.
The patient doesn't consent to surgery.
But she's a minor. Her dad's
probably still in the air.
Priority is saving her life.
I know. No! Vivian, please
come on, I'm on your side.
Pulse is 120 and threading.
BP's 80 over 50.
She's going in septic shock.
Push a gram of ampicillin.
Get all the lines open, let's go!
- Let's move!
- Vivian! No!
No, it's okay.
Code pink first floor, unit 7.
Don't. Don't let her die!
It's okay. I got you now.
Please!
What do you tell the patient?
- I'll test your airways and lung volume?
- Correct. Then?
We're gonna do three efforts
to test the lung volume.
- What he said.
- Hey, take this seriously.
Hey, stand down, Master Corporal,
- he's an FNG.
- What's an FNG?
You don't want to know. What's next?
Okay. I'm gonna put my tongue down.
I'm gonna close my
mouth around this piece.
I'm gonna blow up fast three times.
Just like I'm playing the bagpipes.
You're gonna write down the numbers.
- Okay, blow away, Danny Boy.
- Danny Boy's Irish, but...
I'm just gonna write
down the numbers here.
I want to order a full workup.
I think you just want me to stay longer
so you can steal more crib money.
Edward, your lung capacity
values are significantly lower
- than on your last visit.
- Don't look so serious.
Come on. It's just a bunch of hot air.
Okay, let's get the sergeant
ready for transport.
You grab an oxygen tank
and take him to the lab.
Tell Jamil I want him bumped
to the front of the line.
- I'll meet you up there.
- On it like a bonnet, sir.
Keon Colby to Obstetrics.
- Keon Colby to Obstetrics.
- Hey, lady.
Here you go.
- Can I get you something to eat?
- How much longer will it take?
I don't know,
but I'm sure Dr. Rossi is
taking great care of your sister.
My mommy died in this hospital.
Oh, my gosh. I'm so sorry.
I was 9.
Was she sick?
Sick in her head.
Mr. Adem's plane just landed.
- I've sent my guys to bring him right over.
- Great!
Hear that? Your daddy's on his way here.
I don't want him to be sad about Vi.
How about you let me
worry about that, okay?
Now come on.
Let's go get you a treat,
shall we?
Close the door.
Actually, leave it open.
I'm just gonna cut to the chase. Hmm...
What happened between us the other day,
- it can't happen again.
- Okay.
- Not at work.
- So what about other places?
Keon, I like you... a lot.
Don't get smug about it.
There is a power dynamic
between us that we...
that I need to address.
I don't mind you being in charge
- if that's what you're asking.
- I do. In a delivery room
I have to be, but not in a
relationship. It's gotta be 50-50.
Cool. So, we can just take
turns being boss in the bedroom.
I am a single mother
with a busy practice;
I don't have time...
You sure got lots of excuses, though.
Keon, we're in very
different places in our lives,
and you need to ask yourself
if you're gonna be okay
with what I have the capacity to give.
Okay, I'll think about it.
You know it's weird how
sometimes talking about doing it
is almost sexier than actually doing it.
Think about it.
I am thinking about it. Right now.
You're okay? You're comfy?
Oh, I make a living. Thank God.
Come on, that was a joke.
Oh, man, I'm so sorry.
I'm not sharp today. I'm...
You got like the... thousand-yard stare.
Did you know that they coined
that term during the
Second World War and it's
a symptom of battlefield
exhaustion and stress.
Except I am not on a battlefield.
Oh yeah? Don't kid yourself.
I guess I've been burning
the candle on both ends.
- Mm-hmm?
- Running into financial difficulties.
Yeah. I mean, well, I think there's only
one financial difficulty...
no money.
- That would be the one!
- Yeah. Yeah!
You got it, man.
You can't work yourself into the ground,
Okay? Because you are
gonna make yourself sick.
And that is straight
from the donkey's mouth.
- What's going on?
- I'm not sure.
Oh, no, no, no. I think...
I think we're stuck.
Hmmm... okay.
I spy with my little eye a bouquet.
Yeah!
Good work!
- Okay, your turn...
- Sorry. Sorry, sorry
to jump the queue, but
I'm in a bit of a rush.
But you can all put your
drinks on my tab. Grace.
- Look who it is.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- And who's this?
Oh! Uh, this is my patient's sister.
Don't worry, your sister's
in the best hospital
- in the entire universe.
- Thomas, I know you're busy,
why don't you go on
ahead and I'll catch up.
I want to say a proper hello to Grace.
I can't wait for this
bureaucratic BS to be over,
so I can get back to running
the hospital. Or three.
I thought he would never stop talking.
It is so good to see
you've landed on your feet.
- We miss you at the General.
- Yeah. I miss you guys too.
Are you working with him?
No, I was appointed
nursing rep for the merger.
No, I would never have volunteered
- to be Hamilton's sidekick.
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, Linda, um, do you
want to get coffee later?
Yeah. Yeah, I'd love that.
How about I text you after
all the paper pushing's done.
- Great!
- Okay!
- It's good to see you.
- You too.
Yeah.
Sorry. Uh, okay.
I think she's still deciding,
but I will take the one
with the sprinkles, and I'll
pay for those myself. Thank you.
Which one you're thinking?
Blue?
There's no reception.
- You pressed the emergency button?
- Oh, right. Yes, yes, alright.
Security.
- Hello?
Wait, are you claustrophobic?
Being in a hole for six
months will do that to you.
Okay, try to relax.
We're going to get you out
of there as fast as we can.
Punch it again.
You really don't need to press
it again, I'm already on the line.
- Okay.
- Wolf,
- can you hear me?
Aaah...
Not feeling so good here,
- Corporal.
He's looking a little gray. No offence.
And he's wheezing quite a bit.
Okay, you need to listen
to every word I say.
- You feel me?
- Yes, sir.
Place your palm on Edward's
chest and breathe with him.
Slow his breathing down.
- I want to get out.
- It's okay.
- Okay. Hey, hey.
Edward, Edward, hey, hey, hey.
- Let go of me, FNG.
- Don't push him!
- He's fighting me, Damien.
- Come on, come on.
Come on, come on. You're okay,
- you're okay.
- I was on two tours;
I am not going down
in a freaking elevator.
Plug the tube into the tank first,
Okay. It's alright. It's alright.
- What are you doing?!
- The tank's
Didn't you check the pressure
when you grabbed it?
- I didn't think I needed to.
- Bag him! Do it now!
Hey. Right here, right
here, right here. Hey.
Hey. Vivian's out of surgery.
You want to go see your sister?
This way.
Opiate overdose.
Pulse is thready. BP 90 over 40.
- One breath every 10 seconds.
- Wait!
- What's happening?
- Stand aside, please.
Can I stay with him?
Please, he was my patient.
Go on, so.
- There she is!
- You're okay!
So sorry I left you.
I love you. You know that, right?
Oh, hey.
- Hey, you okay? What happened?
- I'm so sorry, Daddy,
I didn't mean to leave her alone.
I know, honey, I'm just...
happy you're okay.
I'm John Adem.
- Hi.
- Oh, hi. I'm Grace,
- Vivian's nurse.
- Thank you.
So what happened? Was it her appendix?
No. Vivian had an
ulcer which perforated.
An ulcer?
Is that common in a child her age?
Not common, no.
Ruby told me about your wife.
I'm so sorry to hear.
Yes, uh... We don't
like to talk about that.
We can't change the past;
all we can do is move forward.
Right, girls?
Mr. Adem, I hate to confess this
because it is totally my fault,
but all Little Ruby has had to eat today
- is a donut.
- Oh!
She could probably use a proper meal.
And Vivian should get some rest.
- Right. Yes.
- But I don't want to leave Vi.
I know, honey. Hey, get rest, okay?
And you food. Come on, let's go.
Donut.
- So what kind of donut was it?
- Ha-ha!
You know, your dad doesn't...
but think you do want to talk about it.
Your mom?
I'm a really good listener.
You can leave too, please.
Okay.
Hello there, fellow underslept,
constantly hungry,
deeply fatigued human.
Are you okay?
Yeah. No. Just a patient
I'm not sure how to help.
Have you tried a fleet enema?
No. Seriously, my grandpa
Roy was a GP back at home;
his answer to absolutely
everything was a fleet enema.
Thanks, but I'm not entirely sure
how that's gonna help in this case.
Actually, maybe like an emotional enema.
Try that.
Hey. You guys hear?
Wolf's stuck in an elevator with
some guy with respiratory distress.
- What?!
- Yeah. Damien's gotta monitor at Security.
Oh, my God! The poor guy's
exhausted, I gotta go help him.
- Cover my patients for me.
- Ash!
- Who are your patients?
- Place your left thumb
all the way around the
seal and then squeeze.
I can't get a proper seal;
the oxygen keeps seeping out.
- One. One, two. One.
- Attaboy, Wolf.
- Ash, is that you?
- your patients, Collins.
- Yeah. Keon and Grace are on it.
- So nice to hear a friendly voice.
- He didn't mean it like that.
Is his chest expanding?
Dude, check it with your stethoscope.
Listen for decreased air entry
His right and left side
don't sound the same.
Oh no, you pushed too
hard and caused a pneumo.
- You collapsed his lung.
_
Oh, my God!
Oh, he's stable, but in
a medically induced coma.
Is it, uh...
is it propofol or pentobarbital?
Pentobarbital.
Good. Good. Less chance
for respiratory problems.
Ah. You're the cousin in med school.
Yeah, uh... I'm Dev.
And its early day, so...
I'm his nurse, Naz.
So what do we do now, Naz?
Now, we wait.
At every party,
he was always the one buying
everyone trays of shots.
Always wanted to go to the
next club, the next bar...
... keep the party going.
When someone's in that
mode, there's nothing
- you can do to stop them.
- No. I knew he had a problem.
I should have pushed
harder for him to get help.
He was drunk when he came in earlier.
I gave him a pamphlet,
and I discharged him.
Hey, hey, it's not your fault.
Right back at you.
No. Yeah, I mean... it was Veer's way.
He always had to take charge.
And now... Hey, do you
think he can hear me?
If there something you
want to say, you should.
I feel so strange treating
him like a patient.
So treat him like your brother.
He can hear you.
I'm sure he can.
Okay.
You always had to do things
your way, didn't you, Veer?
But not this time because this time
you can't talk back.
This time, you have to listen to me.
I'm not letting you go.
You have to stay alive,
you have to keep fighting.
_
I know you're a born fighter.
Uh, look, I... I don't want to get you
in trouble, but could you
help me with something?
It's kind of a family tradition.
Damien, help me. The
tank's almost out of oxygen.
Don't die, okay? Don't
die. Please, just tell me
- I told you what to do, but
- you were too stupid to do it!
- Hey, that's not fair,
- he hasn't slept.
- And that's my fault?!
No, but he's scared, okay,
so cut him some slack.
It's working. It's working.
We're moving!
Wolf, get off on the fourth!
Let's get him to ICU now!
I should take your license!
Get out of my sight!
Vivian...
I'm just gonna check your
vitals if that's alright.
- Your dad and Ruby?
- Still downstairs.
She probably can't decide what to order.
She's a Gemini, has
trouble making up her mind.
Ah. Yes, I witnessed
that with the donut.
I'm Taurus, we're natural empaths.
Hmm.
Maybe... you'll be a nurse.
No way. I hate hospitals.
No offence.
None taken.
Especially this one.
Your mom...
Right, no fly zone.
You know, I... I know what it's like
to grow up too soon.
For me, it was for my mom
'cause my dad was, well,
someone you needed to be
protected from sometimes.
- My dad's not like that.
- No, I know.
He seems like a really good dad,
which is why I think you could talk.
I can't. He can't.
Before she, uh...
It's okay to say it.
Killed herself...
... I told her I hated her.
Ohhh...
Then, I slammed my door
and turned up my music.
And then she...
My dad doesn't know...
... about the fight, that...
that the last thing I said to her was...
Oh, honey, that isn't your fault.
After that, I just did what I had to do.
To survive.
I get it. Believe me, I do.
But I think everything you've
done up until this point
has been totally right.
Everything.
I think sometimes that things that we do
to survive stop working.
Sometimes, they even hurt us.
Well, maybe it's time
to try something else.
- Oh, thank you.
- Thank you for making the time.
- Are you kidding?
- I look for excuses
to come home late. Ty is
collecting bonsai again.
Bonsai!
So what is it you wanted to talk about?
Hmmm....
I actually want to ask you something.
Mm-hmm.
You remember that day at the General
when you saw me in the
OR crying by myself?
Do you know why I was crying?
Grace, this isn't a path you
want to go down; it's a dead-end.
It never turns out well for the nurses.
"For the nurses"?
No one ever wins against him.
Lungs collapse all the time.
Damien... was making it sound
like it's the first time
it's ever happened.
- Thank you.
- But you know, you should
really... take a couple of shifts off,
sleep, you know, so you
don't make any more mistakes.
Well, I'm making mistakes
because I have to work extra
shifts to pay for my meds.
Now, if I didn't work as much,
I'd be a way better nurse.
Oh, Sinead.
Look, if she knows I'm
administering drugs for you,
- she'll have my head on a chopping block.
- Ash, I'm sorry.
Look, I'm... Obviously, I have
zero confidence left in myself.
You got it. Waste this for me.
Hey, so I gave it a lot
of thought, and I think
- we're great together. I'm in.
- Keon...
I don't know, I don't
need a second opinion, Doc.
This is a 50-50 thing, remember?
- Okay.
- Okay.
So, what's next?
Well...
since one of our rules is
nothing can ever happen at work...
Nothing at work
after today.
But today is bottomless.
It's about to be.
Look familiar?
It's your dad's dagger.
He gave it to my Bapa when he was sick.
You need to fight hard.
Our whole family's energy
is coming through this
dagger and going into you.
Feel it. Soak it in.
You're not alone, Veer,
you have all of us.
Listen to his words, Veer.
My brother, I promise
I will get you into recovery.
Yeah, I'll be there
every step of the way,
step by step.
We'll do it together.
I'm never gonna let you go.
Fight that and come back to us. Please.
Hi.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Aw!
- Just cancelled my flights
for the next few weeks.
- I want to stay close to home.
- I think that's a good idea.
So, how is she?
Still a little tender from the surgery.
She seems to be recovering
well physically...
I was married for 17 years;
I know when there's a "but" coming.
Mr. Adem,
losing your wife...
with two small girls;
I can't imagine what
you've gone through.
You probably can actually.
You do with people on that day,
their worst day,
every shift.
How do you do it without falling apart?
- I don't know.
- Hmm.
I guess...
... I kind of find it
a privilege
to be able to be there,
bear witness.
You know, to sit in the
soup with their families
and offer whatever kind
of support that I can.
That's what she needs from me, isn't it?
To sit in the soup with her?
I've known that for a long time, just...
I don't know how to do it.
Maybe I can help with that.
Thank you.
Yeah, this is the worst Indian food
- I've ever had.
- You're lucky I'm even
letting you eat in here.
Yeah. Come to my parents' samosa
shop, and I'll treat you to a feast.
Your cousin already promised
to treat me to the movies.
He did?
Okay.
God! He loves life.
He lives it fast and loose.
We had a million conversations
about him slowing down, but, uh,
I could never get through.
I know what you mean.
Look, I... You look so much like...
Nazneen Khan, film star
Aaliyah Khan's daughter?
Yeah, that's right.
Wow! Oh, okay, um,
I was madly in love with you.
- Why did you fall out of love?
- Just distance.
You disappeared completely.
What happened?
I, um...
I was basically you
a few years ago.
My twin brother, Amir,
who also loved to party...
... he wrapped his car around a pole.
Oh, my God, I am... so sorry.
There were a million recovery attempts.
The never-ending
rollercoaster of the Amir show.
And then when the show ended,
I needed a fresh start.
And now here I am
with one half of me missing.
He would be proud of you.
Hey.
I think Vivian has something
she wants to tell you guys.
- Yeah.
- Impact in **.
The old guy asked for you specifically.
Oh, you gotta be kidding me.
Surprise!
You guys... Now get back to work!
- Happy birthday!
- Happy birthday!
Make a wish.
Thank you.
So, being exhausted,
overworked, stressed,
that's just part of the human condition.
- And all that matters in the end
- _
is how you choose to
manage that stress.
And how you handle it
can either make you a hero
or desperate.
- You're lucky, he's gonna be okay.
- I'm sorry.
You are not allowed to
pick up one extra shift.
Not until you figure out how
to handle the ones you have
without hurting patients.
Is that understood?
I'm in.
Nice work, buddy.
It's 200.
For half the bottle?
Beats the crap out of
a nurse's wage, huh?
Keep it coming.
Hi, Grace.
Hi.
Are you alright?
Yeah. You?
Yeah. I'm sorry, I'm just tired.
Multiple deadlines, and I gotta fill in
for Hamilton at the
stakeholders' meeting tomorrow.
Mhm.
Hey, um,
are these rumours about him true?
What rumours? What did you hear?
Well, nothing specific,
just some nurses at the
General have been saying
some things about him
being inappropriate.
God. God.
You scared me. I thought maybe
something serious had happened.
- You don't think that's serious?
- Of course it's serious
if it were true.
You know I'm all about
the "Me Too" stuff, you
know that; it's just...
it's not really the case here.
How can you be so sure?
Because I've spent
enough time with the guy
to know. He's a powerful man
at the top of his game and
with it being so zeitgeist,
crabs are bound to crawl
out of the woodwork.
Crabs?
- You know what I mean.
- No, I'm not sure that I do.
Who's spreading this crap?
Because I need to take
care of this merger.
The merger or yourself?
And yes, it would do big
things for me at the firm,
so what are these names?
You don't even care for a second
that this might be true. You
have these women get fired
just to protect your life plans.
And what about me? Am I
a part of your life plans?
Of course you're a
part of my life, Grace.
- Of course you are.
- Really?
- Yes.
- Does that include a seat at the table
at your wedding?
- Where is this coming from?
- You know...
... your life plan will
always revolve around you,
because I'm just a moving piece in it,
but that's okay because
for me, I guess...
... I was using you too
- to survive.
- Survive what?!
- What are you talking about?
- But that isn't working anymore,
so it's time to try something else.
- Grace...
- Kabir, we're done.
You keep making your plans,
and I'm gonna make
some new ones on my own.
