"Previously on "Saving Hope"..." "I feel like a parade float." "A beautiful parade float." "We're all wondering who's the daddy." "Well, she is right." "It is safer to wait until after the baby's born to do a paternity test, so..." "It's the right thing to do." "One last push." "Thought of any names yet?" "Luke." "And a mortar went astray." "We hope it doesn't detonate before you guys can get it out of him." " I'll be right back." " Thank you." " You're not gonna wait, are you?" " No." "Joel." "I love you, Charlie." "I love you." "What?" "Hey." "How long you been awake?" "I don't know." "A while." "Charlie?" "My heart's going a mile a minute." "It's okay, just nerves." "Right." "You've got opening-day jitters." "You know, someone once told me that there's a really great way to get rid of that." "Mm-hmm." "And that is sex." "You are so full of it." "No, no, no, it's true, it's true, it's true." " It's true." "It's true." " Really?" " Yes, it's a scientifically proven fact." " Oh, okay." " Scientifically proven fact?" " Mm-hmm." "You just need a little mojo." "Hmm." "Oh, yeah?" "I'll give you a little mojo." " Oh!" " Yes." "Oh, my." " Oh." " Good morning, doctor." "Mm." " Okay," " I'm in clinic all morning, but I'm available on my cell any time." " Got it." " Okay?" "Hey." "Don't forget to leave our numbers on the fridge." "How you doing in there, Alex?" "I don't know if this outfit works." "Um, well, Dawn's gonna have a field day if you're late." "Yes, she will." "Okay, what do you think?" "You look like a million bucks." "Alex, we got to go." "I know, I know, I know." "You look gorgeous, Dr. Reid." "Thank you." "Just one more snuggle, huh?" "Come to mommy." "I know, I know, you're mad at mommy, but I love you so much, and I'm gonna miss you, but I also love being a doctor, right?" "If you have any trouble getting him to go down..." "Try a '70s power ballad." ""Love hurts," Nazareth, works like a charm." "I love you, love you, love, love you." " Daddy." " Alex." " Daddy." " Da-da." "Da-da." "That's da-da." "Okay." "I'm coming." "I'm coming." "Wave goodbye." "Bye, baby." "Okay." "First day back, slow and steady, right?" "Right." "Slow and steady." "Zach!" "Alex." "You're back." "Whoa." "What do we got?" "32-year-old female, penetrating chest wound with blunt trauma from a car crash." "You find her on scene?" "We arrived at the same time." "My baby, where is she?" "Your baby's safe." "We're watching her." "On three." "One, two, three..." "I can't breathe." "I can't." "" " Maggs." "Hi." " Can you check her airway?" " Yeah, on it." "Tracheal shift." "BP's in a nose dive." "Tension pneumo." "My baby!" "Let's get 100 micrograms of fentanyl." "Give me a 16 gauge." "Find the mid-clavicular line for me, please." "Let's get that 16 gauge." "Come on, come on, come on." " Ready?" " Yeah." "Aah, aah, aah." "Okay, Naomi, try to take a nice, deep breath for me, please." "I'm all she has." "I know." "Okay, let's get her a chest tube." "Is this baby she speaks of imaginary or real?" "Real." "Very real." "She's with Charlie." "Naomi, I promise you, I'll stay with you, okay?" "I need you to close your eyes." "Scalpel." "Yeah." "Get that chest tube." "Okay." "Okay, thank you." "No, I can't open her up with one hand." "Let me do it." "You're gonna be okay, all right?" "What can I do?" "Check her for bleeding, doctor..." "Curtis." "Patrick." "Gen. surg. on call." "Alex." "Paramedics said she hit the steering wheel pretty hard." "Run a F.A.S.T." "I will, right after I check my A.B.C.'S." "Okay, I'm through the parietal pleura." "Okay, here we go with the chest tube." "All right, there we go." "And we are in." "Dr. Reid is back in the house." "Okay, what are you seeing?" "I've got free fluid." "She's bleeding in her belly." "I can't tell how bad it is." "Let's get her up to imaging." " N... no!" " Sorry?" "She's bleeding." "She needs to go to surgery right now." "I like to have my ducks in a row before I start slicing them open." " Let's go!" " There's not enough time." "I'll take it from here, thank you." "Up to imaging, please!" "Screw slow and steady." "Ah-pa-pa-pa-pa!" "Fatherhood looks good on you, Dr. Harris." "Isn't mine." "Hey." "Good for you for sticking in there, man." "What?" "Your baby." "Jackson, this isn't Luke." "It's a girl from the car accident this morning, and not a scratch on her, is there?" "A lucky baby." "Want to do me a favor?" "I want you to page pediatrics." "I want somebody to observe her for a couple hours." "Yeah, I'm on it like a bonnet." "What's this for?" "Uh..." " This is for that." " I don't do diapers." "You're a nurse, Jackson." "You very much do do diapers." "Yeah, not on babies, I don't." "Just... okay, then pretend she's a very little old person, okay?" "I'm late for cast clinic." "Hey, shh!" "Shh!" "Hey, hey!" "You know, if this was a boa constrictor," "I'd know exactly what to do with it." "What?" "Come on." "Let me know when pediatrics arrives, okay?" "Let's go learn to use a cast saw." "Yes, we will." "Yes, we will." "Maggie, talk to me about Dr. Curtis." " Patrick?" " Yeah." "He's great." "You're gonna love him." "He is basically Hugh Grant with a job." "He likes unattractive prostitutes?" "Are you jealous, Dr. Reid?" "Not even a little." "I'm curious." "Is he on a fellowship here?" "Gen. surg." "I guess Dawn couldn't wait for you to get back." "I can't believe she hired someone with an accent." "I know." "Right?" "Irony's not lost on me." "I've slept with enough shrinks to know sublimination when I've seen it." "Lin." "I need you in bay four." "What's up with Zach?" "He has a little more stubble than usual." "I can see that." "Why?" "Lin." "Because it goes with his darling new personality." "Good to have you back." "Lin!" "Right." "Charlie." "Shahir, I'm late for fracture clinic." "Okay." "I need a favor." "Ooh." "That's... not Luke." "No, that's the baby from the car accident this morning." "Survived it unscathed." "Hmm." "Lucky baby." "I don't believe in luck." "I'm surprised you do." "Serendipity has been good to me, Charlie." "And... yeah." "Pediatric nurse is waiting in the doctor's lounge." "Um, I'll tell you what." "You get this little baby to the doctor's lounge safely, and I will do whatever you like." " All right." "It's a deal." " Good." "See, Charlie?" "Serendipity." "Just put a blanket on her." "Hey, Dawn." "Dr. Reid." "Sans baby weight and then some." "Welcome back to the conglin." "That's "jungle" in mandarin." "You're learning chinese." "Part of a citywide chief initiative 'cause I don't have enough on my plate." "Oh." "Busy day?" "Well, I have a budget meeting, a heart transplant, and a high-security flying in from Kingston any minute, so yes, you could say that." "The car crash I rode in on." "I'd like in on the surgery." " Patrick's on call." " Yeah, I know." "I met him." "He's great." "Unlike your terrible lying, he is an excellent surgeon." "I'm sure he is." "But the patient, I sort of promised her that I'd be there." "She's a single mother." "Well, then, she's used to people breaking their promises." "Except that I had my finger in her chest cavity when I made that promise, Dawn." "Fine, I don't have time to argue." "Assist Dr. Curtis, scrub up." "Thank you." "Bu kuh chi." "Wow." "How is she doing?" "Vitals are all over the map, and she's still losing a boatload of blood." "What's the imaging show?" "Nothing." "It's inconclusive." "Okay, so we have blunt trauma to the abdomen, which means that it's likely..." "Liver or spleen." "I've ordered a speed-tract and a trauma lap tray with extra sponges." "She's unstable, so we're gonna..." "So, we will pack first, and then work systematically to find the bleeder." "That was, uh, quite an entrance you made this morning." "I'm not usually that dramatic." "Eh, that's not what I heard." "Really?" "Car crashes." "Comas." "Giving birth at your board examinations." "Actually, it was in the ambulance on the way back from the boards." "Sorry if I've overstepped." "Don't worry about it." "Really." "So, what brought you here, Dr. Curtis?" "Would you believe love?" "It didn't exactly work out." " Sorry to hear that." " So is she, I hope." "They're almost finished prepping." "We should probably hurry up and meet again." "Alex." "I'm..." "I had an aunt named Alex." "Bit of a moose was old aunty Alex." "You don't remind me of her at all, which is good." "I'm Patrick." "I can't shake your hand." "No, no, of course." "Of course, you can't." "Mr. Fong in bed 3 needs an ID for an abscess." "And I shall order it." "And I shall administer it." "Really?" "Melanda transferred six weeks ago." "We broke up three months ago." "Yeah, but when'd you stop sleeping together?" "I guess you don't waste any time." "Life is short, Lin." " Dr. Lin." " Yep." " Can I borrow you for a sec?" " Yeah." "Just tried to triage a 50-year-old female, Vivian Gerbasi." "She's got terrible abdominal pain, but that's all I got." "She insists on talking to a doctor." "Let's meet her." "Hi, Ms. Gerbasi." "I'm Dr. Lin." "Please, call me Viv." "Okay, let's take a look." "Ohh." "Let me know if you feel any pain, okay?" "Okay." "It just came on, all of a sudden." "I'm sure that it's just jet lag, but..." " Where were you?" " Oh." "It's gonna come on now." " I'll take it." " I'm sorry." "It's okay." "Where were you traveling, Viv?" "That's why I insisted on talking to a doctor." "I was in the Ivory Coast." "As in, the country next to Liberia." "Okay, Lin, call a code orange." "We need to secure an isolation room, all right?" " Got it." " Cabrera?" "Hey." "I need you to secure all the PPE we can find." "I'm gonna call the NML and get her out of here." "Are you saying this patient has eb..." "Whoa, whoa, Serena, we don't know that." "We don't know anything yet." "Until we do, it's business as usual." " Okay?" " Oh, god." "Hey." "Just in case." " Don't even think about it." " You wish." "Her belly is filling up with blood." "Okay, let's go!" "Pack, pack, pack." "All four quadrants." "Ugh, it's not helping." "Dr. Baumann, is..." "Is the blood running under pressure?" "It needs to go in as quickly as possible." "I'm on it, boss." "Okay." "Okay, everything's tight." "Now, let's put it in reverse." "Alex, be ready to..." "Suction?" "Got it." " Here you go." " All right." "Safe with the liver." "Gallbladder, colon, it's okay." "With the amount of blood, it's probably the aorta." "You should go directly to the left lower quadrant." "We unpack clockwise." "That's the procedure." "Left upper quadrant next..." "Okay, I know that's what we normally do..." "That's how it's always done." "Pancreas, spleen, both good." "Okay, there you are, you scandalous bugger." "It is the aorta." "The force of the impact must have torn it." " You need to cross-clamp to stop the bleed." " It's carnage." "I can't see a thing." "Well, you need to find the defect and put a stitch in it." " If you don't..." " Or she'll die." "That's the same on both sides of the pond." "Make a decision, guys." "She's not coping well." "You got one chance at this." "It's your call." "I'll do it blind." "Aortic clamp." "I have the celiac trunk." "Damn it." "There's barely any space." "It slipped." "Systolic is 70." "60." "We can't keep up with the blood loss." "You know what?" "You had your chance." "It's the angle." "If I could just..." "Well, I'm left-handed." "I can get it from here." "Clamp." "We're losing her!" "Dr. Curtis, please." "Suction." "She's clamped." "Talk to me." "Blood pressure's climbing back up." "What do you know?" "I'll close the defect on my own." "I can stay on to assist." "No, it's..." "I'm sure a surgeon of your caliber could be of more use somewhere else." "Sorry." "Do you mind?" "Of course." "Um, if you do need me for anything..." "Yeah, I'll page you." "Okay." "Charlie, there you are." "Shahir!" "How's... how's lucky baby?" "Oh, delivered safely to the doctor's lounge." "Okay, I'm here to call in my favor." "Okay." "Uh, great." "Shoot." "Okay, so I'm spearheading an exciting, new, cutting-edge Alzheimer's study." "We're going to be pitching to three board members in less than an hour to secure some funding." ""We"?" "Yeah, well, Dr. Baldwin was in line to be my orthopod, but he fell with the flu, so..." "And you want me to pinch hit?" "Okay, so the study involves injecting the patient with an anti-inflammatory drug called toramex." "We inject it into the spine right by the neck." "Then we tilt the body so we encourage blood flow right to the brain." "You know, neurologists at UCLA have seen great results with it." "Okay, great." "Get them to present with you, then." "Okay, if anybody should be supporting a little outside of the box thinking," "I would think you of all people." "Okay, well, I'd still want to read up on it, Shahir." "Well, the pitch is this afternoon." "Okay, then, Shahir, no." "Come on." "I'm out." "Unbelievable." "If Joel was still alive, I would have gone to him." "And we won't know anything until we run more tests." "Is that before or after I start bleeding out of my eyes?" "Okay, please don't move." "There hasn't been a reported case in the Ivory Coast." "I'd be the first." "Patient zero." "How unlucky am I?" "Tell me more about the trip." "Why the Ivory Coast?" "Um... you ever have a dream, when you were little, I mean?" "Sure." "It was to kiss Bobby McMillian behind the portables, which I did." "How did that turn out?" "He told everyone I sexually harassed him, and my parents started home schooling me." "Oh, dear." "I'm sorry." "Mine was to see the pygmy hippopotamus." "My father showed me a picture of them when I was a little girl." "They were so cute with their little webbed toes." "I promised myself that before I turned 50 that I would see them." "And that happened last week." " Congratulations." " Thank you." "When my boyfriend, Sam, heard about my... stupid childhood promise, he-he was the one." "He made me do it." "Said I had to follow my pygmy dreams." "That's amazing." "And then I broke up with him." "Oh?" "He was... he's younger than I am, 18 years." "18 years?" "Go, Viv." "Said he didn't care about the age gap." "He said he didn't want any kids." "He said all the right things." "You still broke up with him?" "You can't know what you don't know." "The heart is a mysterious little muscle." "I'm gonna die alone here, aren't I?" "You know, I've been gone less than a year, and it seems like everything's changed." "There's new staff." "Dawn is learning chinese." "It's like I've fallen down a rabbit hole." "Yeah." "Things are pretty different around here." "I guess I forget how much sometimes." "Yeah, and everywhere I look, it's just that... maybe nothing's really changed except that he's not here." "What's that?" "Um, this is Luke's long-form birth certificate." "Came in the mail this morning." "The name of the father is still empty." "Right." "Well, we've been living in such a blissful bubble," "I haven't wanted to burst it, so..." "I know." "Me, too." "You think it's time?" "I don't know." "Maybe." "I'm needed in the O.R. again." "Car crash?" "No, I'm actually not sure what this is." "Okay, go." "We'll worry about this later." "Okay." "Dr. Sharpe, what have you got?" "A patient got flown in from Kingston." "He's got a ruptured ulcer." "Somebody better get in there and patch him up, then." "That's the thing." "I can't put him under." "What?" "Turns out, he's also got severe sleep apnea." "His airway's just too tight to get a tube down him." "You're thinking high thoracic epidural." "Dr. Bell says you're the only surgeon on staff who's ever pulled off an awake surgery." "That was Joel's idea, actually." "Why doesn't that surprise me?" "Naomi Rios, single mother from the car crash." "How's she doing?" "It's touch and go." "Dr. Curtis is still operating." "He's thorough." "That's one word for it." "Look, I know it's your first day back..." "No, go ahead." " You sure?" " Yeah." "Let's do an awake surgery." "There is one more thing about this patient." "He was convicted of killing his wife." "Okay, good to know." "Mr. Crenshaw." "So, you're the one who's gonna cut me open." "Yes." "What's your name?" "It's policy not to give the inmates any personal information." "She's about to look at my guts." "Doesn't get any more personal than that." "I'm pretty freaked out here." "My name is Dr. Reid." "Alex." "I'm here to get you better." "Can you remove these handcuffs, please?" "Mr. Crenshaw, can you feel this?" "No." "I hope you've got steady hands." "You haven't been drinking, have you?" "No." "Good." "That's good." "Although I could really go for one right now." "I used to work as a bartender in this fancy country club." "Ice, please?" "After dark, I'd sneak out on the course and pretend I was the type of guy that could afford to play there." "You golf, doc?" "No, I don't have the time." "You feel this?" "Not a thing." "I took it up years later, when I married Amy." "Became that type of guy, I guess." "Okay, let's get started." "Scalpel?" "You sure I'm not gonna feel anything?" "If you do, you let us know." "No offense, I don't trust doctors." "None taken." "I don't trust criminals." "Fair enough." "It was a doctor that got me put away." "That's enough." "Actually, that's okay." "It's important that everybody stays calm and relaxed while in here." "It's not in my job description." "Well, it is in mine, and this is my O.R., so I call the shots." "Got it?" "Thank you." "You're welcome." "Dr. Sharpe?" "He's all yours." "She's seizing." "Okay, we need 2 milligrams of lorazepam and some phenytoin in case she doesn't respond." "Damn it!" "Screw it." "I'm going in." "No, Zach!" "No, no!" "Zach, you can't go in there!" "Let's go." "Let's go!" "Come on!" "Hey, that's okay." "Okay." "There you go." "There you go." "There you go." "Tom, you have a nasty-looking ulcer that's been perforated." "I need to patch this." "I wish I was surprised." "Gut's been a mess since they put me inside." "Okay." "JP drain." "Fixing the plumbing, doc?" "Kind of, yeah." "Okay." "You might feel a little pull here." "I thought I wasn't supposed to feel anything." "More like a little pressure." "Just try to take a nice, deep breath for me now." "Mnh, I can't get a good breath in." "Suction, please." "Pulse is rising." "Seriously, I-I can't do this." "He's pushing." "Sedation." "Deep breaths, Tom." " Deep breaths." " I can't!" "You know what, Tom?" "Try to think of a place that is nice and calm and relaxing." " Oh, god." "Oh, god." "Oh, god." " Listen to my voice." "Why don't you describe it to me?" "What does it look like?" "The... the barn." "Amy and I, we'd sneak off, but..." " Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa." " You felt that?" "Mm, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all on my right side." "More propofol, Dr. Sharpe." "I'm on it!" "Okay, try to keep him steady, please." "What's happening to me?" "Lorazepam worked like a charm." "She should be in sleepy town for a while now." "Her boyfriend's camping out, huh?" "Sam... yeah." "He insists he's not leaving." "Where is that blood work?" "Zach, what are you doing in there without any protective gear?" "Do you have a death wish?" "What am I supposed to think?" "Think whatever you want, Maggie." " That's mature." " Well, screw mature." "No, seriously, what were you thinking, just charging in there?" "I was thinking that she was gonna die while you're out there fiddling with your gear." "It's protocol to protect yourself." "Well... it's my job to protect the patient." "He's been here all day." "He's beating himself up for letting her go to Africa on her own." "Maybe he'll make it up to her." "Well, let's hope he gets the chance." "Tom, Tom, listen to me." "You are going to be okay, all right?" "We're gonna take good care of you." "I'm in a lot of pain here." "Okay, the epidural isn't working." "Dr. Sharpe?" "Uh, blood pressure's rising." "He's going into shock." "Breathing is compromised." "Bring in the wedge." "Let's get this retractor out of here and give me that towel." "All right, let's take this off." "Let's go, let's go, let's go!" "Oh, god." "Hold onto him!" "We're gonna move up in one, two, three, up." "There we go." " Oh, god." "Oh, god." " Hand on him." "You're gonna be okay, Tom." "You're gonna be okay." "Dr. Sharpe!" "Try to relax if you can." "Airway's too tight." "I can't intubate." "Okay, prepare for a crash trach." "Scalpel!" "Stay with me here, Tom." "Stay with me." "Dr. Sharpe?" "Go." "Okay." "Hold onto him for me, all right?" " Yeah." " Here we go." " He's under." " Let's get him breathing." "I am not gonna lose someone on my first day back." "3-0 silk." "Scissors." "And done." "How's he doing, Sharpe?" "He's better." "Baseline is still rocky, though." "Satting at 80." "BP is still low." "He's still alive." "Okay, let's close him up and get him into the ICU." "Nice work, everybody." "Good job, Dr. Reid." "Hey." "Hey." "Can you help me?" "Um..." "You're okay." "What's happening to me?" "Am I invisible, like a ghost?" "You could say that." "But you can see me." "You're a little hard to miss, no offense." "Prison for life." "For what?" "It's a long story." "I see." "No, you don't." "I'm-I'm innocent." "You a doctor?" "Uh, yeah, I'm an orthopedic surgeon." "What, like a bone guy?" "Um, excuse me, I just remembered, there's something I need to attend to." "Wh... how will I know where to find you?" "Uh, you'll know." "She's fine." "Your daughter, that's who you're looking for, right?" "Yeah, we were in an accident." "I know." "I know." "She's okay." " You've seen Felicia?" " Yeah, I'm a doctor." "I examined her, so..." "Oh, will you please take me to her, please?" "Yeah, come with me." "She's a cutie." "Thanks." "She almost didn't happen, you know." "I'm single, so I'm not exactly high on the list." "But I called every day for six years." "And then when I saw her at the agency for the first time, she's mine, you know?" "She's adopted?" "Yeah." "No, no, no." "Dr. Hamza, please." "Let the baby have her rest." "Just... that's okay, you can... you can see her later." "And you'll have to..." "What's going on?" "Uh, I don't know, but let me look after it." "" " I just need to do..." " No, you can't..." "Vicki?" "Shahir?" "What, uh, what's going on?" "He wants to rub the baby's head for luck." "Okay, I'm gonna blow this presentation, Charlie." "Okay, Shahir, she's not a rabbit's foot, okay?" "Hey, baby." "And the first rule is, you do not disturb a happy baby." "What's gonna happen to Felicia if I..." "She's gonna go into the system." "What?" "Um, if, uh, something were to happen to her mother." "Oh." "Unless there's a suitable family member, yeah." "But there isn't one." "Foster care gets a bad rap." "I don't know about that." "I was in it." "Well, you turned out okay." "He still has some work to do." "In my books, you stepped up to the plate to raise a kid, biological parent or not, you're a hero." "Mommy's not going anywhere." "Hey." "I'm not going anywhere, hmm?" "Mommy's not going anywhere." "Okay, Shahir, why don't we let the baby sleep?" "If you need anything, I'm available on my cell any time." "I know." "You may not be this baby's father, but you're definitely somebody's." " Come on." "Rub my head for luck." " Hi." " You know what I mean." " Hello." "Okay, so the more I think about it, there's validity to the study." "So, toramex is one of the most effective" " TNF blockers we have, right?" " Mm-hmm." "So, if it works on the inflammation of arthritic joints," " then..." " It'll work in the brain." "See, that was excellent, Charlie." "If you could just say it like that." "You know, I've never seen you this emotional about anything, Shahir." "What's... what's really going on?" "Shahir?" "My grandmother, Sakina, she practically raised me, Charlie." "I'm sorry." "When was she diagnosed?" "A few months ago." "If I get this funding, I'll put her in the trial." "At least I'll have done something." "Okay." "Really?" "Yeah." "What the hell?" "A deal's a deal." "Memory drugs are the next big thing in medicine." "In the proposal..." "Yes, we read the proposal." "Oh, good." "That's good." "I've tested this on 20 patients, all with the scientific protocol that has passed the ethics committee, and the early results have been extremely encouraging." "The past is tethered to the story of our memories." "And if the tether snaps, we lose who we are." "How does toramex factor in?" "Shahir?" "I'll take this one." "Toramex alleviates arthritis, targets TNF, and is proven to reduce associated inflammation." "These proteins can be up to 25 times higher in Alzheimer's patients' brains." "Right, so the tricky part is, how do we get the drug into the brain without it dissipating in the body?" "Which is why we tilt them." "By injecting the drug into the spine here, it will flow directly into the brain." "Repair the tether, remember the story, give back a life." "That's what I'm hoping for." "What happened?" "Viv." "Hey." "You, uh, you had a seizure, most likely caused by the high fever." "Is that..." "Sam?" "Yep." "He's been here for hours." "You have to tell him to leave." "I don't think it's gonna matter." "He's not really taking no for an answer." "What is he doing?" "I don't know." "Please tell me I'm not gonna die in here." "The blood results." "So, what is it?" "Oh, my god." "Oh, my god." "Oh, my god!" "Giardia." "It was the pygmy hippos." "I never thought I'd say that." "What?" "Giardia is a... it's a nasty parasite, and it's carried around in the feces of infected animals." "Symptoms mirror ebola." "So, I'm-I'm not gonna die." "Well, you most definitely are, but not because of this." "Healthy dose of antibiotics, lots of fluids." "You're gonna be fine." "Thank you." "Thank you." "Thank Dr. Miller." "He's a bit of a cowboy." "Ha." "Come around." "You'll be happy to know that our patient, Naomi, is stable." "That's great." "She seen her daughter?" "Children aren't allowed on the surgical step-down unit." "Oh, come on." "Those are the rules." "Maybe, but if I was her, I'd want to see my kid." "Alex, we may have different approaches to the work, but at the end of the day... it's about saving lives." " Which we did." " True." "Dr. Reid?" "Your patient, Mr. Crenshaw." "I was just coming to check on him." "Is everything okay?" "He's trying to pull out his tube." "100 mils of propofol, 240 of ketamine." "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "You can't be in here." "He's trying to break out of here." "Back up!" " He's fighting his vents." " He can't tolerate the E.T. tube." "I'll restrain him." "I'll restrain him." "No, you won't." "It's a medical issue." "Get him out of here." " Dr. Curtis?" " On it." "Next." "Next." "Come on." "Come on." "Come on." "It's okay." "You're gonna be okay." " No." " That's not enough." "24 mils of roc." "That's a paralytic." "You're inducing a coma?" "If I don't, he'll never recover." "His body needs more time." "Come on." "Quite the first day back." "There we go." "That's better." "Should I check his motor response?" "Nope." "I've spent enough time around one to know." "He's in a coma." "100% ebola free." "Let's go get drunk." "You should put that on a bumper sticker." "Is something wrong?" "Well, you know, first day back, patient's in a coma." "The "ushe."" "Yeah, I get it." "This is my first night off in forever." "Can I buy you a drink?" " I'd love it." " But..." "But Charlie's making dinner, and I am dying to see my kid." " Rain check?" " Of course." " I missed you." " I missed you, too." "It's good to have you back." "It's good to be back." "Oh, huan ying, Dr. Reid." "Welcome back." "Great work today, Dr. Miller." "You, too." "Hey." "I miss him, too." "If you ever want to talk..." "You ever think about doing something different with your hair?" "Good night, Zach." " Hey." " Hey." "Please tell me that he's still awake." "No, he's fast asleep." "Oh." "Hello to you, too, beautiful." "But there is some good news to go with the bad." " Really?" " Yeah." "Shahir's funding came through." "I guess I'm getting into the brain game." "That's great." "Cheers." "Mm-hmm." "You know, I don't think I've ever been so happy to be home." "Which is why I..." "I kind of decided something today." "Okay." "Um..." "I-I don't want to do the paternity test." "What?" "I don't care if he's mine so long as he's yours." "Ours." "If he's yours, he's ours." "If it was a kangaroo, I'd raise him." "Charlie, you deserve to know." "Mm, not if I don't care." "And I think you deserve someone who doesn't care." "So does Luke." "Do you have any idea how much I love you?" " Wait." " What?" " Listen." " No." "What?" "He's awake." "I'm just gonna go check on him." "No, no, no, no, no." "No, no." "I haven't seen him all day." "No, sweetheart, you go in there, you're not coming out." "Okay?" "You can go see him in a little bit, but we kind of have some unfinished business from this morning that I'd like to attend to." "I'll go look after him, and you stay here." "When I get back... be naked." "Sir, yes, sir." "Hey!" "What are you doing up?" "What are you doing up?" "Hey." "I really need you to go to sleep, like, right now." "Charlie." "The medical examiner who" " testified against me." " What the hell are you doing in my house?" "He lied under oath." " You can't be here." " The prosecution's case rested almost entirely in Dwyer's favor." "Hey!" "This isn't the way this works, okay?" " You know bones." " Help me prove that Dwyer lied." "Please." "You're my last chance." "Charlie?" "Hey, everything okay?" "Yeah." " There's my little guy." " Yeah." "Hi." "Yeah, you want to come to mommy?" "Yeah." "Yeah."
