1
00:00:02,450 --> 00:00:05,108
When my mother was
diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease,

2
00:00:05,246 --> 00:00:06,719
her cousin said she must've gotten

3
00:00:06,743 --> 00:00:08,215
it because she didn't take fish oil.

4
00:00:08,353 --> 00:00:13,333
I picked up everything on the
list, except they ran out of Dijon,

5
00:00:13,358 --> 00:00:16,058
so, I got whole grain instead, which...

6
00:00:16,082 --> 00:00:18,821
Yeah, I know... is inferior, but...

7
00:00:20,098 --> 00:00:21,755
- Who are you?
- Hey.

8
00:00:21,893 --> 00:00:23,929
Hey, you're, uh, back early.

9
00:00:23,954 --> 00:00:25,787
Yeah, I decided to
do the groceries first

10
00:00:25,812 --> 00:00:27,322
and pick up your car after. Who's this?

11
00:00:27,347 --> 00:00:32,214
That's Elroy, the contractor
I hired to babyproof for us.

12
00:00:32,239 --> 00:00:33,453
These stairs aren't safe.

13
00:00:33,932 --> 00:00:34,933
Naked sides.

14
00:00:35,819 --> 00:00:36,855
Don't worry.

15
00:00:37,375 --> 00:00:38,721
- I can fix them.
- Okay.

16
00:00:39,082 --> 00:00:40,360
I told you I was gonna do that.

17
00:00:40,385 --> 00:00:42,500
Yeah, back when Scout
and Luna were babies,

18
00:00:42,525 --> 00:00:44,216
and now we have two more babies.

19
00:00:47,665 --> 00:00:50,731
My patient with a myoelectric
prosthesis was just brought into the ER.

20
00:00:50,756 --> 00:00:52,137
Mountain bike accident.

21
00:00:53,001 --> 00:00:55,437
- I should go.
- Wait, wait, wait. What about my car?

22
00:00:56,416 --> 00:00:57,762
Ask Elroy.

23
00:01:00,054 --> 00:01:01,967
Her neighbor thought
it was because my mother,

24
00:01:01,992 --> 00:01:05,687
a world renowned surgeon, didn't
do enough crossword puzzles.

25
00:01:13,652 --> 00:01:15,999
Is this your way of
thanking me for the coffee?

26
00:01:16,024 --> 00:01:18,429
I'm stressed about the M&M.

27
00:01:18,825 --> 00:01:20,448
Well, I am ready to help.

28
00:01:28,370 --> 00:01:30,582
Shepherd. I'm on her service.

29
00:01:34,266 --> 00:01:35,476
You better go.

30
00:01:35,501 --> 00:01:40,295
I'll ask her if I can sneak away to
come watch, but if not, good luck.

31
00:01:41,221 --> 00:01:42,912
I told them to shove it.

32
00:01:43,137 --> 00:01:46,451
They always want to cast blame,
something to fear and avoid.

33
00:01:47,645 --> 00:01:49,164
But the only thing to blame...

34
00:01:50,249 --> 00:01:51,250
is everything.

35
00:01:53,156 --> 00:01:55,498
Bless you. Oh.

36
00:01:55,523 --> 00:01:58,181
You left out the door so early,
I figured you needed a pick-me-up.

37
00:01:58,428 --> 00:02:00,854
Well, I thought keeping busy
would take my mind off things,

38
00:02:00,879 --> 00:02:03,951
but... it just means
I'm tired and hangry.

39
00:02:03,976 --> 00:02:05,607
Yeah. How's Katie doing?

40
00:02:06,371 --> 00:02:08,310
I'm waiting for her labs,

41
00:02:08,335 --> 00:02:14,178
but I'm guessing she has carcinomatosis
and a partial obstruction.

42
00:02:14,203 --> 00:02:16,743
- Well, how often are they draining her?
- Twice a day.

43
00:02:16,768 --> 00:02:18,389
Okay, well, listen, if there's

44
00:02:18,414 --> 00:02:19,770
anything I can do, just let me know...

45
00:02:19,794 --> 00:02:20,830
Warren.

46
00:02:21,725 --> 00:02:23,796
You're with me.

47
00:02:24,005 --> 00:02:26,880
Okay, go. I'm okay.

48
00:02:26,905 --> 00:02:29,494
- Dr. Bailey.
- Welcome back.

49
00:02:30,150 --> 00:02:33,187
First day back in the OR. How's it feel?

50
00:02:33,212 --> 00:02:35,559
Well, I'm working
with my chief resident.

51
00:02:35,584 --> 00:02:37,747
I have an M&M later today, and the

52
00:02:37,850 --> 00:02:40,013
cafeteria is serving shepherd's pie.

53
00:02:40,133 --> 00:02:41,203
Feels like Christmas.

54
00:02:42,576 --> 00:02:44,174
Well, wait till you
see our first consult.

55
00:02:44,198 --> 00:02:45,544
Good morning.

56
00:02:45,795 --> 00:02:48,798
Oh, Russell, this is Dr.
Webber and Dr. Warren.

57
00:02:48,823 --> 00:02:50,491
These are the headliners.

58
00:02:50,515 --> 00:02:52,241
Russell's a community theater director.

59
00:02:52,266 --> 00:02:53,837
Right now, he's putting
up a production of Hamlet.

60
00:02:53,862 --> 00:02:57,013
"When sorrows come, they
come not single spies"...

61
00:02:57,038 --> 00:02:58,764
"but in battalions."

62
00:02:58,789 --> 00:03:01,466
- Yes, okay.
- Yeah.

63
00:03:01,491 --> 00:03:04,770
You would demote my
Claudius to an understudy.

64
00:03:04,795 --> 00:03:06,742
- Hamlet's my favorite Shakespeare.
- Mmm.

65
00:03:06,767 --> 00:03:09,252
- Um, Dr. Meade?
- Much Ado About Nothing.

66
00:03:09,889 --> 00:03:11,373
He wants you to present the case.

67
00:03:11,898 --> 00:03:13,360
Right. Sorry, um...

68
00:03:14,002 --> 00:03:17,206
"Russell West, 34, with
history of beta thalassemia

69
00:03:17,231 --> 00:03:19,751
with blood transfusions
every three months for anemia.

70
00:03:19,883 --> 00:03:23,178
Admitted for splenic sequestration
crisis two weeks ago."

71
00:03:23,203 --> 00:03:25,757
His abdomen has been getting
increasingly distended.

72
00:03:25,895 --> 00:03:28,277
Uh, we're consulting
today for a splenectomy.

73
00:03:28,415 --> 00:03:31,003
I thought I was just gaining
a little weight...

74
00:03:31,141 --> 00:03:33,592
but then my stomach just
kept getting bigger and bigger.

75
00:03:33,730 --> 00:03:35,362
- Can I take a look?
- Yeah.

76
00:03:35,387 --> 00:03:36,664
I'll call for an ultrasound.

77
00:03:36,689 --> 00:03:38,650
Oh, let's go old school while we wait.

78
00:03:38,675 --> 00:03:40,333
When was the last time
you did percussion?

79
00:03:40,490 --> 00:03:42,737
Uh...

80
00:03:44,776 --> 00:03:47,054
All right, you hear that?
It's hollow. That's his lung.

81
00:03:47,606 --> 00:03:51,783
Here. That's dull. That's
the spleen from here...

82
00:03:54,135 --> 00:03:55,792
to here.

83
00:03:56,658 --> 00:03:59,281
Your spleen extends from
the left upper quadrant

84
00:03:59,306 --> 00:04:01,191
all the way to the right lower quadrant.

85
00:04:01,216 --> 00:04:03,227
It's taking up your entire abdomen.

86
00:04:03,252 --> 00:04:04,874
This needs to come out immediately.

87
00:04:04,899 --> 00:04:07,454
I'm in the middle of
tech week. I can't...

88
00:04:08,006 --> 00:04:09,667
Won't it just shrink on its own?

89
00:04:09,692 --> 00:04:11,298
It's unlikely in a case this severe.

90
00:04:11,323 --> 00:04:13,158
Plus, you'd run the
risk of rupturing it.

91
00:04:13,183 --> 00:04:14,401
Okay, that sounds bad.

92
00:04:14,426 --> 00:04:16,877
Yeah, really bad. Instant death.

93
00:04:18,982 --> 00:04:21,133
You... You want to take care of
this sooner rather than later.

94
00:04:21,157 --> 00:04:23,009
Dr. Meade can take you for a CT scan

95
00:04:23,033 --> 00:04:25,112
so we can plan a surgical approach.

96
00:04:25,137 --> 00:04:27,242
Yeah, could he do it instead?

97
00:04:27,267 --> 00:04:28,751
I'll go with you.

98
00:04:28,776 --> 00:04:29,811
Yeah.

99
00:04:32,249 --> 00:04:34,766
- Well?
- It's better than Christmas.

100
00:04:36,093 --> 00:04:37,347
had been compromised.

101
00:04:37,372 --> 00:04:40,754
We then used 4-0 VICRYL
sutures to inset the...

102
00:04:40,779 --> 00:04:42,195
Are you reciting your presentation?

103
00:04:43,144 --> 00:04:44,668
You know how when you lie, your cheeks

104
00:04:44,692 --> 00:04:46,651
get flushed and your
voice gets all high?

105
00:04:47,079 --> 00:04:49,910
You do both of those things, and
so do I when I give presentations,

106
00:04:49,935 --> 00:04:53,939
and I also sweat and sometimes faint.

107
00:05:05,339 --> 00:05:07,834
- Interesting case?
- Your sternal reconstruction patient.

108
00:05:08,078 --> 00:05:09,148
Scott Hill?

109
00:05:09,412 --> 00:05:11,207
Beckman's out. Someone
has to check on him.

110
00:05:11,232 --> 00:05:14,822
Well, Dr. Wright is supposed to be
attempting another flap tomorrow.

111
00:05:15,901 --> 00:05:18,687
Hope it takes.

112
00:05:18,712 --> 00:05:20,023
See you at the M&M.

113
00:05:23,351 --> 00:05:24,597
It'll be fine.

114
00:05:25,248 --> 00:05:28,406
I've successfully avoided him
after lying to help his patient.

115
00:05:28,431 --> 00:05:31,784
Oh, that was weeks ago.
He's probably forgotten.

116
00:05:33,367 --> 00:05:35,058
You truly are a terrible liar.

117
00:05:38,434 --> 00:05:40,781
Sorry for interrupting
your parental leave.

118
00:05:40,806 --> 00:05:42,291
Was Jo annoyed?

119
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,240
Yeah, but not because of that.

120
00:05:44,944 --> 00:05:46,325
Oh, here they are.

121
00:05:47,347 --> 00:05:50,315
Okay, "Jon Ellison, 40. Status
post-mountain biking accident.

122
00:05:50,340 --> 00:05:52,223
No LOC or signs of head trauma.

123
00:05:52,361 --> 00:05:55,615
He has bruising on his chest, and
X-rays show multiple rib fractures.

124
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:57,711
He had targeted muscle
reinnervation surgery

125
00:05:57,736 --> 00:05:59,736
a few months ago for an
advanced arm prosthesis"...

126
00:05:59,773 --> 00:06:00,773
I know. I did it.

127
00:06:00,877 --> 00:06:02,534
After I amputated his arm.

128
00:06:02,559 --> 00:06:03,629
Jon.

129
00:06:03,825 --> 00:06:04,826
Pauline.

130
00:06:05,513 --> 00:06:06,513
What happened?

131
00:06:06,538 --> 00:06:08,273
I was training at Tiger Mountain.

132
00:06:08,298 --> 00:06:09,792
The hand just let go.

133
00:06:09,817 --> 00:06:11,371
I lost my balance and fell.

134
00:06:11,396 --> 00:06:13,276
He crashed straight into a boulder.

135
00:06:13,545 --> 00:06:14,965
Tell 'em about the last time.

136
00:06:14,989 --> 00:06:17,100
Yeah, it did the same thing last month.

137
00:06:17,238 --> 00:06:19,004
I sideswiped a tree and almost missed

138
00:06:19,028 --> 00:06:21,016
qualifying for the World Championships.

139
00:06:21,041 --> 00:06:23,112
- When's the competition?
- Three months.

140
00:06:23,141 --> 00:06:25,912
I can still compete though,
right? I'm up for sponsorships.

141
00:06:25,937 --> 00:06:27,638
The nerve we rerouted to your upper arm

142
00:06:27,663 --> 00:06:30,182
should be sending precise
signals to your hand.

143
00:06:30,207 --> 00:06:31,807
We'll get some scans.
We'll check it out.

144
00:06:32,012 --> 00:06:33,772
Kwan, call CT. Let
'em know we're coming.

145
00:06:33,797 --> 00:06:34,833
Yeah.

146
00:06:38,567 --> 00:06:39,775
What are we playing?

147
00:06:40,116 --> 00:06:41,290
Five-card stud.

148
00:06:41,483 --> 00:06:43,727
- You play?
- Uh, not anymore.

149
00:06:44,424 --> 00:06:47,416
But I ran a weekly poker
night in med school.

150
00:06:47,554 --> 00:06:49,901
- Were you any good?
- Graduated debt-free.

151
00:06:52,431 --> 00:06:53,570
How are you feeling today?

152
00:06:53,595 --> 00:06:55,217
They drained another liter this morning.

153
00:06:55,242 --> 00:06:58,496
She's still nauseous. We asked
for ice chips 30 minutes ago.

154
00:06:58,521 --> 00:07:01,731
Oh, it must have gotten
lost in the morning handoff.

155
00:07:01,756 --> 00:07:04,916
- I'll get them myself.
- Can you grab some for my mom too?

156
00:07:05,054 --> 00:07:07,850
- She needs to chill.
- You see how she treats me?

157
00:07:12,828 --> 00:07:15,175
Uh, I'll... I'll get
you those ice chips.

158
00:07:18,427 --> 00:07:19,704
How bad?

159
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,693
Katie's creatinine
is elevated, albumin low.

160
00:07:22,718 --> 00:07:27,067
Her AST, ALT, and INR
are... through the roof.

161
00:07:27,964 --> 00:07:29,722
She's in multiple organ failure.

162
00:07:30,124 --> 00:07:32,679
The TPN is too hard on her liver.

163
00:07:33,228 --> 00:07:35,023
It's the only thing
giving her nutrition.

164
00:07:39,114 --> 00:07:40,978
Call palliative care.

165
00:07:43,657 --> 00:07:48,657
- Synced and corrected by ChrisKe -
— for www.addic7ed.com —

166
00:08:00,987 --> 00:08:02,402
I thought I was late.

167
00:08:02,766 --> 00:08:05,243
Bailey does not need
another reason to yell at me.

168
00:08:05,677 --> 00:08:07,265
- Hey, how's Katie?
- Yes.

169
00:08:08,715 --> 00:08:13,064
Her INR is getting worse. She needs
two more units of FFP. Correct.

170
00:08:14,258 --> 00:08:15,780
Thank you.

171
00:08:15,805 --> 00:08:18,118
Katie? What, is her liver failing?

172
00:08:18,661 --> 00:08:20,007
What did the repeat scans show?

173
00:08:24,434 --> 00:08:26,896
She doesn't know yet.
We're gonna tell her after the M&M.

174
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,920
I wanna be there.

175
00:08:28,070 --> 00:08:30,038
You are not part of her care team.

176
00:08:30,466 --> 00:08:32,468
Do I need to write you a reminder?

177
00:08:34,355 --> 00:08:36,974
Hi. Good morning, everyone.

178
00:08:36,999 --> 00:08:38,725
Are we ready to begin?

179
00:08:39,074 --> 00:08:41,352
- Dr. Millin?
- Yes.

180
00:08:46,905 --> 00:08:50,815
Uh, Scott Hill, age 73,
presented four months ago

181
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,049
with shortness of breath and chest pain.

182
00:08:54,499 --> 00:08:58,374
See what I told you? The spleen
has taken over the entire abdomen.

183
00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:00,756
It has sequestered so
much of his blood supply.

184
00:09:00,781 --> 00:09:03,335
I mean, how would you
even mobilize that?

185
00:09:04,458 --> 00:09:05,666
You tell me.

186
00:09:06,624 --> 00:09:08,005
Uh, well, um...

187
00:09:08,030 --> 00:09:11,500
If it were a smaller spleen,
I would enter the lesser sac,

188
00:09:11,525 --> 00:09:14,080
take down attachments,
and medially rotate it

189
00:09:14,105 --> 00:09:17,062
to access the pedicle, but this...

190
00:09:17,201 --> 00:09:18,624
Yeah, I have no clue.

191
00:09:18,649 --> 00:09:20,990
Plus, once we're in there,
one nick to the organ

192
00:09:21,015 --> 00:09:22,535
and Russell could bleed out in seconds.

193
00:09:24,563 --> 00:09:26,289
When I was a resident,

194
00:09:26,435 --> 00:09:30,081
I scrubbed in on a liver teratoma
I thought was impossible to resect.

195
00:09:31,053 --> 00:09:33,030
But I had an attending, Dr. Rathbone,

196
00:09:33,055 --> 00:09:35,408
who did a total vascular exclusion of

197
00:09:35,432 --> 00:09:37,588
the liver to create a bloodless field.

198
00:09:37,613 --> 00:09:41,295
It was brilliant, and it taught
me to always keep an open mind.

199
00:09:42,047 --> 00:09:45,050
I saved a piece of that tumor
in a jar for years after.

200
00:09:46,002 --> 00:09:49,350
Maybe after this you can, uh, save
a piece of Russell's spleen, huh?

201
00:09:49,375 --> 00:09:51,995
Do I have to?

202
00:09:53,065 --> 00:09:55,293
Okay, let's take a page
from Rathbone's playbook.

203
00:09:55,318 --> 00:09:58,745
Let's call IR, have them
embolize the splenic artery,

204
00:09:58,770 --> 00:10:00,403
then we'll open him
up and see what we got.

205
00:10:00,427 --> 00:10:02,542
Uh, what about the M&M?
We're already late.

206
00:10:02,567 --> 00:10:04,811
No, M&Ms happen every week.

207
00:10:05,955 --> 00:10:08,026
But a spleen like this?

208
00:10:08,652 --> 00:10:10,757
It happens once in a lifetime.

209
00:10:10,902 --> 00:10:16,004
We then used interrupted 4-0 VICRYL
sutures to inset the omental flap.

210
00:10:16,052 --> 00:10:18,261
You can see the healthy flap here.

211
00:10:18,286 --> 00:10:23,556
Did his pre-op scans show any sign
for concern about pedicle tension?

212
00:10:23,581 --> 00:10:25,703
No, the team agreed that the distance

213
00:10:25,728 --> 00:10:28,628
between the epigastrium and the
superior sternum was acceptable.

214
00:10:28,766 --> 00:10:31,201
And at this point, "the team" was...

215
00:10:31,226 --> 00:10:32,779
Me and Dr. Mohanty.

216
00:10:32,804 --> 00:10:35,057
You had finished harvesting the omentum,

217
00:10:35,082 --> 00:10:37,991
and Dr. Wright and Dr. Warren
were needed on another case.

218
00:10:38,016 --> 00:10:40,265
So, the, uh, the changes in the flap's

219
00:10:40,289 --> 00:10:42,538
appearance progressed rapidly post-op.

220
00:10:42,563 --> 00:10:46,208
As you can see here, uh,
it is dark and swollen.

221
00:10:46,233 --> 00:10:48,095
Did you check Doppler flow after inset?

222
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,450
- Yes, there was biphasic signal.
- And which one of you did that?

223
00:10:52,594 --> 00:10:55,871
Well, we can both confirm
that there was a... signal.

224
00:10:55,896 --> 00:10:58,243
When we realized there was
no blood flow to the flap...

225
00:10:58,268 --> 00:11:02,473
I'm sorry, so the two of
you... both... heard the signal?

226
00:11:02,498 --> 00:11:04,673
Were roles clearly
defined during the inset?

227
00:11:04,698 --> 00:11:06,389
- I believe so.
- You believe so?

228
00:11:07,304 --> 00:11:10,239
Who placed the stitch causing
tension around the pedicle?

229
00:11:11,922 --> 00:11:16,374
Look, this patient, my patient,
hasn't left the hospital in weeks

230
00:11:16,399 --> 00:11:20,989
due to a gaping hole in his chest,
which I believed we had fixed.

231
00:11:21,487 --> 00:11:23,934
He's still here because
of someone's negligence

232
00:11:23,959 --> 00:11:26,168
and it sure as hell isn't mine, so...

233
00:11:27,709 --> 00:11:29,365
who placed the stitch?

234
00:11:32,832 --> 00:11:33,833
That's on me.

235
00:11:35,026 --> 00:11:37,235
I should have watched my
resident more carefully.

236
00:11:37,599 --> 00:11:40,085
I take full responsibility
as her supervisor.

237
00:11:55,581 --> 00:11:57,514
He is all set.

238
00:11:58,579 --> 00:12:01,350
Would either of you mind if I
catch the last part of the M&M?

239
00:12:01,375 --> 00:12:03,076
- Start the scan, Kwan.
- We do.

240
00:12:07,267 --> 00:12:09,038
- Everything okay?
- I'm a handy person.

241
00:12:09,725 --> 00:12:11,878
Did I miss the first
part of this conversation?

242
00:12:11,903 --> 00:12:15,537
Jo's getting an estimate from a
contractor to babyproof our place,

243
00:12:15,562 --> 00:12:18,013
even though I told her I can do it.
I want to do it.

244
00:12:19,221 --> 00:12:20,784
Are you sure you still need me here?

245
00:12:20,809 --> 00:12:22,545
The babies can't even
roll over on their own.

246
00:12:22,569 --> 00:12:23,889
They're nowhere close to crawling.

247
00:12:23,914 --> 00:12:26,513
We have a minute before the
stairs are an actual risk.

248
00:12:26,538 --> 00:12:29,237
So, you'll just wait till
Scout and Luna are teenagers?

249
00:12:30,621 --> 00:12:32,278
- Kwan?
- Yes, all right,

250
00:12:32,303 --> 00:12:35,626
three right-sided rib fractures.
He has a small pneumothorax.

251
00:12:35,651 --> 00:12:37,096
He probably doesn't need a chest tube,

252
00:12:37,121 --> 00:12:38,940
but the muscle in the TMR looks good.

253
00:12:38,965 --> 00:12:40,863
All right, admit him for observation

254
00:12:40,888 --> 00:12:43,620
and then just do a follow-up
X-ray with him later today.

255
00:12:44,039 --> 00:12:46,154
I'm sorry you had to
come in for rib fractures,

256
00:12:46,179 --> 00:12:48,743
but maybe now you can
go home and babyproof.

257
00:12:48,768 --> 00:12:51,011
We should still check the
signals to his bionic arm.

258
00:12:51,149 --> 00:12:53,749
I mean, there's no hematoma or
bleeding around the nerves in the TMR.

259
00:12:53,773 --> 00:12:54,877
The signals should be fine.

260
00:12:54,902 --> 00:12:56,542
Yeah, but he's still
falling off his bike.

261
00:12:57,579 --> 00:13:00,720
Kwan, get Jon back to his room
and set up for EMG testing.

262
00:13:00,745 --> 00:13:02,298
- Yeah.
- Mm-hmm.

263
00:13:04,315 --> 00:13:06,018
When a pedicle passes through narrow

264
00:13:06,042 --> 00:13:08,063
tunnels, we're
essentially working blind.

265
00:13:08,214 --> 00:13:10,228
Uh, Dr. Millin, when you placed the

266
00:13:10,253 --> 00:13:11,904
stitch, did you use a lot of tension?

267
00:13:12,042 --> 00:13:13,802
Excuse me?

268
00:13:13,940 --> 00:13:16,529
I asked if you used a lot of
tension when you placed the stitch.

269
00:13:16,554 --> 00:13:18,175
I-I didn't place the stitch.

270
00:13:19,281 --> 00:13:21,012
Dr. Mohanty, did you or did you not

271
00:13:21,036 --> 00:13:22,767
allow Dr. Millin to place the stitch?

272
00:13:22,792 --> 00:13:25,045
She specifically asked to
do some of the suturing...

273
00:13:25,070 --> 00:13:28,403
And you said no.
Th-This is a huge miscommunication.

274
00:13:28,428 --> 00:13:30,315
Are you saying she's lying?

275
00:13:30,948 --> 00:13:32,131
I didn't say that.

276
00:13:32,156 --> 00:13:34,315
But you are denying that it was you.

277
00:13:34,340 --> 00:13:37,274
If you're both saying you
didn't place the suture,

278
00:13:37,299 --> 00:13:38,699
one of you is not telling the truth.

279
00:13:39,232 --> 00:13:42,545
I only closed the abdomen.
I wasn't anywhere near... the pedicle.

280
00:13:42,570 --> 00:13:46,331
Dr. Millin, admitting your mistakes
is an important part to learning.

281
00:13:46,356 --> 00:13:50,206
If you can't own up to them, we've
got a much more serious problem.

282
00:13:58,022 --> 00:13:59,058
What the hell was that?

283
00:13:59,882 --> 00:14:02,170
- Dr. Millin.
- You placed that stitch, and you know it.

284
00:14:02,195 --> 00:14:03,541
Can we talk about this, please?

285
00:14:03,566 --> 00:14:06,959
Oh, I'm sorry. Do you not
want to get dragged in public?

286
00:14:06,984 --> 00:14:08,709
Sometimes M&Ms go south.

287
00:14:08,961 --> 00:14:10,376
Everyone knows this.

288
00:14:10,401 --> 00:14:11,993
Is that supposed to be an apology?

289
00:14:12,018 --> 00:14:13,172
You're a resident.

290
00:14:13,197 --> 00:14:15,071
Residents are supposed to make mistakes.

291
00:14:15,096 --> 00:14:16,995
Well, I didn't screw up.

292
00:14:17,020 --> 00:14:19,919
You lied, and I got scorched for it.

293
00:14:19,998 --> 00:14:21,620
I have patients to see.

294
00:14:25,958 --> 00:14:28,843
Okay, let me know if
you feel any discomfort.

295
00:14:28,868 --> 00:14:30,110
I'm used to it.

296
00:14:30,135 --> 00:14:32,467
Okay, Jon, I want you to
imagine your phantom limb

297
00:14:32,492 --> 00:14:34,400
and start opening and closing your hand.

298
00:14:34,425 --> 00:14:36,678
That's a good sign, right?

299
00:14:36,703 --> 00:14:38,752
Yeah, the muscles are receiving signal.

300
00:14:38,777 --> 00:14:39,986
It's a really good sign.

301
00:14:40,011 --> 00:14:41,890
And how's the prosthesis
treating you otherwise?

302
00:14:41,915 --> 00:14:45,781
If I was wearing it, I'd give you
a thumbs up or the middle finger.

303
00:14:45,806 --> 00:14:47,187
Depends on my mood.

304
00:14:47,212 --> 00:14:50,015
Oh, he's painted the baby's
room and started cooking again.

305
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,348
It's changed his life at home.

306
00:14:51,373 --> 00:14:55,662
I just can't do the one
thing I was... really hoping for.

307
00:14:55,687 --> 00:14:57,872
Well, your signals are good.

308
00:14:57,897 --> 00:15:00,313
The TMR is not the problem.

309
00:15:00,338 --> 00:15:03,774
Jon, when you ride, do you
experience a high level of stress?

310
00:15:03,799 --> 00:15:06,500
He's dodging trees and jumping rocks

311
00:15:06,525 --> 00:15:08,399
and trying not to fall off the trail.

312
00:15:08,424 --> 00:15:09,814
I actually find it relaxing.

313
00:15:09,839 --> 00:15:12,486
Right, but you're still
encountering unexpected obstacles

314
00:15:12,511 --> 00:15:16,743
and... changes in terrain that
could cause a reflexive reaction

315
00:15:16,768 --> 00:15:19,065
in the muscles that send
signal that could potentially

316
00:15:19,090 --> 00:15:20,730
make your hand do
things you don't intend.

317
00:15:20,781 --> 00:15:22,818
- Like let go of the bike?
- Exactly.

318
00:15:23,069 --> 00:15:26,107
Mountain biking's all
about dealing with the unexpected.

319
00:15:26,132 --> 00:15:28,557
If I can't do that, I can't ride,

320
00:15:28,582 --> 00:15:31,526
and that means no
sponsorships, no prize money.

321
00:15:31,551 --> 00:15:32,871
- Jon...
- And without that money,

322
00:15:32,896 --> 00:15:34,805
we can't afford repairs to my gear,

323
00:15:34,830 --> 00:15:36,797
my training time, part of our mortgage.

324
00:15:36,822 --> 00:15:39,706
I've been working for months
to qualify for this race.

325
00:15:39,731 --> 00:15:41,423
Now you're telling me
I could lose it all?

326
00:15:41,448 --> 00:15:44,297
If you're getting more exercise,
your muscles are getting stronger,

327
00:15:44,322 --> 00:15:47,670
they might be sending a stronger
signal than the prosthesis needs.

328
00:15:47,695 --> 00:15:50,614
Let's take a look at that,
and we'll go from there.

329
00:16:01,270 --> 00:16:03,285
Curtis. Up for a visit?

330
00:16:05,041 --> 00:16:06,560
From the chief?

331
00:16:07,074 --> 00:16:08,558
Anytime.

332
00:16:10,141 --> 00:16:11,901
How are you?

333
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,181
I told the nurses I was
cancer-roommates with Richard Webber.

334
00:16:15,319 --> 00:16:17,666
Suddenly I got extra pillows.

335
00:16:17,804 --> 00:16:19,392
And unlimited applesauce.

336
00:16:19,850 --> 00:16:21,748
What's a fancy title for?

337
00:16:22,636 --> 00:16:24,397
You just missed my wife and kids.

338
00:16:26,054 --> 00:16:27,503
Really wish you would've met them.

339
00:16:27,641 --> 00:16:29,241
- Yeah, I would've loved that too.
- Yeah.

340
00:16:29,411 --> 00:16:30,585
How old are your kids?

341
00:16:30,610 --> 00:16:31,896
Trevor's eight.

342
00:16:31,921 --> 00:16:33,484
He's my bookworm.

343
00:16:33,509 --> 00:16:35,925
And, uh, Amani's five.

344
00:16:35,950 --> 00:16:37,916
She's already running around on her

345
00:16:37,940 --> 00:16:40,006
bike like a bat out of hell.

346
00:16:40,031 --> 00:16:42,275
She'll be trouble.

347
00:16:44,018 --> 00:16:46,158
Now, that's the hardest
part of all this.

348
00:16:47,489 --> 00:16:48,490
It's, uh...

349
00:16:49,698 --> 00:16:51,631
leaving them behind.

350
00:17:00,295 --> 00:17:01,572
Look, I'd...

351
00:17:01,597 --> 00:17:04,443
I'd love to stay, Curtis,
but I'm needed in surgery.

352
00:17:04,958 --> 00:17:07,271
Thank you for stopping by, Dr. Webber.

353
00:17:08,957 --> 00:17:10,303
Just Richard.

354
00:17:24,130 --> 00:17:25,339
How long does she have?

355
00:17:25,364 --> 00:17:28,056
If I give you an answer, it...

356
00:17:28,081 --> 00:17:29,910
it's just my best guess.

357
00:17:30,162 --> 00:17:31,853
But I have more energy today.

358
00:17:31,991 --> 00:17:33,993
We removed the NG tube.

359
00:17:34,018 --> 00:17:36,237
I ate a Popsicle without throwing up.

360
00:17:36,262 --> 00:17:38,584
Yeah, it's common to have good days.

361
00:17:38,881 --> 00:17:42,243
Our focus now is on
keeping you comfortable

362
00:17:42,268 --> 00:17:46,099
so you can have as many
good days as possible.

363
00:17:46,237 --> 00:17:49,102
And if you do in-hospital hospice,
we can manage your symptoms

364
00:17:49,127 --> 00:17:51,010
and pain here for as long as you need.

365
00:17:51,136 --> 00:17:52,793
No, I-I need to go home.

366
00:17:54,590 --> 00:17:56,671
I need to... to sleep in my own bed.

367
00:17:56,696 --> 00:17:59,139
I need to eat my own food, and maybe

368
00:17:59,164 --> 00:18:02,780
if we... work with the PT, I'll improve.

369
00:18:03,140 --> 00:18:04,763
Then that's what we'll do.

370
00:18:05,855 --> 00:18:07,132
We...

371
00:18:07,465 --> 00:18:10,434
We can arrange home health and PT,

372
00:18:10,572 --> 00:18:13,161
but you'd only have someone
a couple of hours a week,

373
00:18:13,259 --> 00:18:14,857
and you need more support.

374
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:19,521
If you do in-home hospice care,
well, they'll send you someone 24/7,

375
00:18:19,546 --> 00:18:22,446
but it could take a week to get started.

376
00:18:22,471 --> 00:18:24,611
I need to get out of here now.

377
00:18:25,088 --> 00:18:26,538
I need to get better.

378
00:18:26,563 --> 00:18:29,186
I'll take care of her
until everything's arranged.

379
00:18:29,553 --> 00:18:34,157
She needs a hospital bed, an
oxygen concentrator, a Hoyer lift...

380
00:18:34,182 --> 00:18:35,631
I'll figure it out.

381
00:18:36,850 --> 00:18:38,755
I did it with my mom.

382
00:18:42,500 --> 00:18:45,340
If you do this, Katie will be leaving

383
00:18:45,365 --> 00:18:47,333
against medical advice.

384
00:18:47,358 --> 00:18:49,529
The insurance won't cover everything

385
00:18:49,554 --> 00:18:51,613
she needs at home if she does that.

386
00:18:52,683 --> 00:18:56,445
I've done everything you've asked.

387
00:18:58,211 --> 00:19:03,506
Every scan, every test,
every infusion, and here I am.

388
00:19:05,429 --> 00:19:09,778
You... You don't know if I'm dying.

389
00:19:10,053 --> 00:19:11,676
You don't know anything.

390
00:19:12,003 --> 00:19:13,074
If I go home...

391
00:19:15,242 --> 00:19:16,416
I'll get better.

392
00:19:17,612 --> 00:19:18,993
You'll see.

393
00:19:25,302 --> 00:19:29,315
Okay. Then I will talk with social work,

394
00:19:29,340 --> 00:19:30,859
and we'll start the process.

395
00:19:36,637 --> 00:19:39,118
Bailey, are you sure AMA
is the right move for Katie?

396
00:19:39,143 --> 00:19:41,318
I most certainly am not.

397
00:19:42,174 --> 00:19:44,710
Look, don't-don't make any moves yet.

398
00:19:44,735 --> 00:19:48,187
I... know someone she might listen to.

399
00:19:54,958 --> 00:19:56,097
Hey, I'm still here.

400
00:19:56,313 --> 00:19:59,018
- Did you read the estimate?
- I've been with my patient.

401
00:19:59,043 --> 00:20:01,717
Well, in order to fully
babyproof the balcony,

402
00:20:01,742 --> 00:20:03,660
we have to put up a higher enclosure

403
00:20:03,685 --> 00:20:06,766
which costs more than I
can say without throwing up.

404
00:20:06,791 --> 00:20:08,586
I told you I... I could do it.

405
00:20:08,724 --> 00:20:09,937
You know, I'm not even sure the HOA

406
00:20:09,961 --> 00:20:11,462
will allow it, so what
do you want to do?

407
00:20:11,599 --> 00:20:12,979
Now you want my opinion?

408
00:20:13,004 --> 00:20:15,110
You really wanna get into it again?

409
00:20:15,248 --> 00:20:18,206
- Look, I'm sorry. I should go.
- Same.

410
00:20:21,358 --> 00:20:23,059
- You gotta go?
- No, it's fine. Let's continue.

411
00:20:23,083 --> 00:20:24,223
Okay.

412
00:20:24,361 --> 00:20:26,328
Okay, this should test the grip.

413
00:20:27,386 --> 00:20:28,835
Mm-hmm.

414
00:20:28,973 --> 00:20:31,495
Hmm. And now finger rolls.

415
00:20:33,887 --> 00:20:37,615
It's working well within
normal EMG signals,

416
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,386
and he says it works fine
when he's not biking, so...

417
00:20:40,411 --> 00:20:42,620
- It's the stress.
- Yeah.

418
00:20:43,164 --> 00:20:45,166
He's done with competitive racing.

419
00:20:48,775 --> 00:20:50,261
That was lunch.

420
00:20:50,565 --> 00:20:52,049
My life is over.

421
00:20:52,251 --> 00:20:54,943
Are your organs failing from
stage-four gastric cancer?

422
00:20:55,194 --> 00:20:56,747
It'll work out.

423
00:20:56,772 --> 00:20:57,868
I've been there.

424
00:20:57,893 --> 00:20:59,477
You got kicked out of your last program.

425
00:20:59,502 --> 00:21:01,142
Still worked out. I'm here.

426
00:21:03,676 --> 00:21:07,181
Hey, your girlfriend is not only
a sloppy surgeon, she's a liar.

427
00:21:07,673 --> 00:21:09,296
The M&M did not go well.

428
00:21:09,321 --> 00:21:12,393
She blamed me for her crappy suture
that killed our patient's flap,

429
00:21:12,418 --> 00:21:14,558
and now none of the attendings
will even look at me.

430
00:21:14,583 --> 00:21:16,999
Kavita is not a liar. Both
her parents are doctors.

431
00:21:17,137 --> 00:21:19,278
And that makes her immune
to being a horrible person?

432
00:21:19,486 --> 00:21:21,211
Hey, wait, she's not a horrible person.

433
00:21:21,236 --> 00:21:23,102
No, you told me to be nice to her,

434
00:21:23,127 --> 00:21:25,284
and I was, and look where that got me.

435
00:21:25,484 --> 00:21:26,899
Thrown under the freaking bus.

436
00:21:28,185 --> 00:21:30,204
- You love the bus.
- Kwan.

437
00:21:31,746 --> 00:21:33,232
This isn't a joke.

438
00:21:33,257 --> 00:21:34,983
Hey! This is my career!

439
00:21:35,689 --> 00:21:37,059
And you know what makes it worse, is

440
00:21:37,084 --> 00:21:39,197
that you're automatically
taking her side.

441
00:21:40,756 --> 00:21:42,206
Oh... Some friend you are.

442
00:21:43,379 --> 00:21:46,865
- Where are you going?
- To... to fix this.

443
00:21:51,548 --> 00:21:52,756
Hey.

444
00:21:53,153 --> 00:21:54,396
Thank you.

445
00:21:58,018 --> 00:22:01,539
Anna Karenina? This is
what you want to read right now?

446
00:22:01,803 --> 00:22:05,326
- It's pretty depressing.
- Well, I'm making my way through a list

447
00:22:05,463 --> 00:22:07,187
of a hundred books you should read.

448
00:22:07,212 --> 00:22:09,164
Yeah, I've read these.
You can skip them.

449
00:22:09,302 --> 00:22:11,512
You've read all 100 books?

450
00:22:11,650 --> 00:22:14,744
Uh, Moby Dick, a bunch
of men yelling on a boat.

451
00:22:14,769 --> 00:22:16,655
Oh, and there's a whale.

452
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,752
Uh, War and Peace, a lot
of war, a little peace.

453
00:22:19,777 --> 00:22:22,297
That's two off your list.

454
00:22:25,671 --> 00:22:26,982
Let's get out of here.

455
00:22:27,389 --> 00:22:29,115
Let's go look at the houseboats.

456
00:22:31,971 --> 00:22:33,006
We can't just leave.

457
00:22:33,936 --> 00:22:36,249
- You're a patient.
- Didn't stop you before.

458
00:22:36,662 --> 00:22:39,446
- And you were my doctor then.
- Yeah, it's not that simple.

459
00:22:39,471 --> 00:22:40,886
You can't walk.

460
00:22:40,911 --> 00:22:42,913
We'd need portable oxygen.

461
00:22:42,938 --> 00:22:44,733
I can walk. Just give me your hand.

462
00:22:44,898 --> 00:22:46,279
Look, Katie, we just...

463
00:22:46,456 --> 00:22:48,389
Can... can you get my bag?

464
00:22:48,574 --> 00:22:50,852
I can't. I don't even know
if I can get you in my car.

465
00:22:53,406 --> 00:22:55,960
Okay. It's okay.
It's okay, it's okay. I got you.

466
00:22:57,338 --> 00:22:59,306
This is it for me, isn't it?

467
00:23:01,096 --> 00:23:04,780
- I really wanted to go home.
- I'm so sorry.

468
00:23:10,803 --> 00:23:12,011
Okay.

469
00:23:12,036 --> 00:23:13,811
Going through the fascia.

470
00:23:16,084 --> 00:23:17,568
- Metz.
- You know,

471
00:23:17,593 --> 00:23:19,256
Meade here has been doing some research.

472
00:23:19,281 --> 00:23:21,878
Fact, the largest spleen ever recorded,

473
00:23:22,015 --> 00:23:24,136
26 pounds and 17 inches.

474
00:23:24,161 --> 00:23:26,991
And based on our estimates,
this one could beat it, sir.

475
00:23:27,016 --> 00:23:28,880
You ready to make history, Dr. Webber?

476
00:23:32,423 --> 00:23:36,769
Oh. Oh, my God. That is...

477
00:23:36,794 --> 00:23:38,624
Nothing but spleen.

478
00:23:38,649 --> 00:23:41,291
Look, I don't want to hear
another word about records

479
00:23:41,316 --> 00:23:43,914
or history until Russell
is on his way to post-op.

480
00:23:43,939 --> 00:23:46,365
Okay, our focus should be on
this patient, on this surgery.

481
00:23:46,390 --> 00:23:47,978
- Understood?
- Loud and clear, boss.

482
00:23:48,003 --> 00:23:50,611
We've got a lot of work ahead of
us. And I need full visualization.

483
00:23:50,826 --> 00:23:52,223
Titan.

484
00:23:52,361 --> 00:23:54,018
Okay.

485
00:23:54,043 --> 00:23:55,838
All right, here we go.

486
00:24:00,014 --> 00:24:03,865
She'll stay here until her
in-home hospice is set up.

487
00:24:03,890 --> 00:24:05,271
Okay.

488
00:24:05,296 --> 00:24:07,170
The social worker's on her
way to get the process started.

489
00:24:07,195 --> 00:24:09,457
Did you mention we're
hoping they can rush this?

490
00:24:09,482 --> 00:24:11,726
Yeah, and I might
have dropped your name.

491
00:24:12,326 --> 00:24:14,466
All right, we'll see if it helps.

492
00:24:16,163 --> 00:24:17,233
Oh.

493
00:24:18,641 --> 00:24:19,677
So, what?

494
00:24:20,054 --> 00:24:21,573
Now you bring in the doctors

495
00:24:21,598 --> 00:24:24,230
with the sad smiles and quiet voices

496
00:24:24,255 --> 00:24:27,293
pretending to know what it's like
to die before you're supposed to?

497
00:24:28,218 --> 00:24:33,051
Our team will do everything
to make her more comfortable.

498
00:24:33,298 --> 00:24:35,676
They'll also move her into a room with

499
00:24:35,701 --> 00:24:38,546
more natural light, fewer machines.

500
00:24:38,902 --> 00:24:41,076
And the chaplain will come too, right?

501
00:24:41,910 --> 00:24:47,157
You had this same conversation
15 years ago about my mother.

502
00:24:47,868 --> 00:24:51,833
And now you have the gall to
have it again about my daughter.

503
00:24:52,135 --> 00:24:54,749
- She was doing better!
- I know.

504
00:24:55,597 --> 00:24:58,625
- I am so sorry.
- Stop saying you're sorry!

505
00:25:00,464 --> 00:25:02,086
If this was one of your babies,

506
00:25:02,984 --> 00:25:06,031
and their life-saving
medication was discontinued

507
00:25:06,056 --> 00:25:07,464
and you had to watch the life drain

508
00:25:07,488 --> 00:25:09,153
from their bodies, what would you do?

509
00:25:09,582 --> 00:25:13,038
I would fight.

510
00:25:13,234 --> 00:25:14,684
But you didn't, did you?

511
00:25:15,706 --> 00:25:17,536
Not for my baby.

512
00:25:32,973 --> 00:25:34,146
Dr. Bailey.

513
00:25:53,380 --> 00:25:54,484
Whoa!

514
00:25:54,509 --> 00:25:57,254
Come in, make yourself
at home. What is this?

515
00:25:57,279 --> 00:25:59,740
I borrowed a few things from Dr. Salley.

516
00:25:59,765 --> 00:26:01,582
I wanted to see if adjusting the grip

517
00:26:01,606 --> 00:26:03,423
on a body-powered prosthesis helps.

518
00:26:04,252 --> 00:26:05,988
Jon talked you into
finding another solution?

519
00:26:06,012 --> 00:26:08,334
I couldn't tell him that he
can't use the robotic one.

520
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:09,639
- Link.
- After his car accident,

521
00:26:09,664 --> 00:26:11,855
he went really dark
when he couldn't ride.

522
00:26:11,880 --> 00:26:15,263
I don't want him or Pauline
to have to repeat that.

523
00:26:20,751 --> 00:26:22,166
Damn it, why can't I do this?

524
00:26:22,304 --> 00:26:24,444
Last time I checked,
you're not a prosthetist.

525
00:26:25,155 --> 00:26:28,527
I have reconstructed fingers.
I've replanted amputated hands.

526
00:26:28,552 --> 00:26:30,805
I've replaced every joint you can name.

527
00:26:30,830 --> 00:26:32,107
I fix things.

528
00:26:32,132 --> 00:26:33,720
It's what I do.

529
00:26:34,084 --> 00:26:39,296
Sounds like you're trying to
fix things at home in my lab.

530
00:26:39,321 --> 00:26:42,748
My shoulder's still... bugging me.

531
00:26:42,773 --> 00:26:45,786
You had a major injury,
and that's gonna take time.

532
00:26:45,811 --> 00:26:48,503
I know. I just I...

533
00:26:48,687 --> 00:26:51,042
I felt pain the last
time I was in the OR.

534
00:26:51,067 --> 00:26:53,725
It's also why I'm
behind on babyproofing.

535
00:26:53,750 --> 00:26:55,171
What does Jo think?

536
00:26:55,989 --> 00:26:57,024
You haven't told her.

537
00:26:57,049 --> 00:26:58,292
She's got her own stuff.

538
00:26:58,675 --> 00:27:02,630
I-I thought I was gonna be back to
normal by the time the twins came.

539
00:27:02,655 --> 00:27:05,495
Instead, I'm just icing my shoulder

540
00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:09,593
and hoping nobody
face-plants off the stairs.

541
00:27:12,769 --> 00:27:15,979
You are very handy, and
you can fix a lot of things.

542
00:27:16,117 --> 00:27:18,094
But sometimes when you
let go of expectations,

543
00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:20,500
you open yourself up
to other possibilities.

544
00:27:23,937 --> 00:27:25,076
Yeah, you're right.

545
00:27:25,101 --> 00:27:26,585
- Does that mean I get my lab back?
- Soon.

546
00:27:26,610 --> 00:27:27,646
Mm-hmm.

547
00:27:28,910 --> 00:27:30,567
You just gave me an idea.

548
00:27:33,192 --> 00:27:34,800
Hey, I got your text.

549
00:27:34,938 --> 00:27:36,457
I'm sorry I missed the M&M.

550
00:27:36,482 --> 00:27:37,932
That's old news.

551
00:27:37,957 --> 00:27:41,600
Wright said that Jackson Avery
called to check my references.

552
00:27:41,625 --> 00:27:43,213
That's huge.

553
00:27:43,743 --> 00:27:44,744
Boston's in the bag.

554
00:27:44,769 --> 00:27:46,219
It gets even better.

555
00:27:46,244 --> 00:27:48,177
Apparently, she told him that Grey Sloan

556
00:27:48,202 --> 00:27:49,617
wouldn't give me up without a fight.

557
00:27:49,642 --> 00:27:51,092
So you could stay here?

558
00:27:51,230 --> 00:27:54,855
I don't have any formal
offers yet, but as long as

559
00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:59,116
I don't majorly screw anything
up, I'm gonna have options.

560
00:28:01,177 --> 00:28:02,177
Wow, um.

561
00:28:02,335 --> 00:28:03,681
Can I ask you something?

562
00:28:04,924 --> 00:28:09,479
Would... stitching over the pedicle
in an omentum be a major screwup?

563
00:28:09,504 --> 00:28:10,989
Why do you ask?

564
00:28:12,997 --> 00:28:16,499
Did you blame Jules for
your suture in the M&M?

565
00:28:17,460 --> 00:28:21,744
I've been in school, or residency,
or fellowship my entire life.

566
00:28:21,769 --> 00:28:24,047
I'm so close to it finally paying off.

567
00:28:25,057 --> 00:28:26,541
So you... did lie.

568
00:28:26,566 --> 00:28:29,475
Surgery's cutthroat,
especially plastics.

569
00:28:29,500 --> 00:28:30,675
Don't tell me you've never told a

570
00:28:30,699 --> 00:28:32,134
small mistruth to get what you needed.

571
00:28:32,158 --> 00:28:33,964
Yeah, but this is more than
just a little white lie.

572
00:28:33,988 --> 00:28:36,103
Every M&M feels like
the end of the world

573
00:28:36,128 --> 00:28:38,406
when you're a resident,
but you get past them.

574
00:28:38,431 --> 00:28:40,452
No one will even remember
this case tomorrow.

575
00:28:40,590 --> 00:28:43,248
And I'll figure something
out to help Millin.

576
00:28:43,405 --> 00:28:46,857
If I take an attending job
here, I can help her even more.

577
00:28:47,898 --> 00:28:49,417
Yeah, I guess that makes sense.

578
00:28:51,281 --> 00:28:54,949
So you're actually considering
Grey Sloan over Boston?

579
00:28:54,974 --> 00:28:56,010
Maybe.

580
00:28:56,882 --> 00:29:00,652
As much as I love
Boston, Seattle's also...

581
00:29:01,630 --> 00:29:02,701
growing on me.

582
00:29:06,917 --> 00:29:09,368
Sixteen inches. So close.

583
00:29:09,506 --> 00:29:10,990
Well, it's still pretty damn big.

584
00:29:11,088 --> 00:29:13,354
Hey, hey, stand next to it for scale.

585
00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:16,549
- Oh, uh, shouldn't it be Dr. Webber?
- Yeah.

586
00:29:16,574 --> 00:29:18,179
Hey, what about it, Chief?

587
00:29:18,204 --> 00:29:20,113
You, uh... You want a
picture with the mega spleen?

588
00:29:20,137 --> 00:29:21,587
Yeah, no pictures for me.

589
00:29:21,647 --> 00:29:23,269
We should weigh it.

590
00:29:23,294 --> 00:29:24,772
I mean, it's not the biggest
ever, but it might be the heaviest.

591
00:29:24,797 --> 00:29:26,316
Come on, here we go.

592
00:29:27,386 --> 00:29:28,786
- Got it? You know what?
- I got it.

593
00:29:28,811 --> 00:29:30,226
Hold on, let me... let me help you.

594
00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:31,401
You can just put it...

595
00:29:33,392 --> 00:29:35,635
Oh, that's a damn shame.

596
00:29:36,647 --> 00:29:39,788
It... it looks even bigger
on the floor.

597
00:29:40,917 --> 00:29:41,917
Hey, you know what?

598
00:29:41,942 --> 00:29:43,944
- Get down, get down.
- Okay.

599
00:29:45,438 --> 00:29:46,690
- Yeah, yeah.
- No, no, no.

600
00:29:46,715 --> 00:29:47,948
Look, that's enough.

601
00:29:47,973 --> 00:29:52,179
Now no more pictures, or jokes,
or talking about bragging rights.

602
00:29:52,204 --> 00:29:55,159
Today was not a success of
medicine, it was a failure.

603
00:29:55,757 --> 00:29:57,979
You think Russell wanted
it to get that bad?

604
00:29:58,100 --> 00:29:59,998
It's a miracle it didn't kill him.

605
00:30:00,459 --> 00:30:01,632
You should be ashamed.

606
00:30:02,906 --> 00:30:04,424
I know I am.

607
00:30:05,658 --> 00:30:07,418
Clean this mess up.

608
00:30:10,153 --> 00:30:12,811
Yeah, of course. Got ya.

609
00:30:23,616 --> 00:30:27,766
No, I-I replay the steps
in my head every night.

610
00:30:27,791 --> 00:30:30,417
Could I have operated earlier?

611
00:30:30,492 --> 00:30:32,977
Could I have pushed oncology harder?

612
00:30:33,224 --> 00:30:37,815
Could I have filed more appeals
with the drug manufacturer?

613
00:30:39,094 --> 00:30:40,846
No, you did everything you could.

614
00:30:41,489 --> 00:30:44,905
I did everything I could 15
years ago for Katie's grandmother.

615
00:30:45,719 --> 00:30:48,032
But immunotherapies didn't exist then.

616
00:30:48,287 --> 00:30:51,912
She died from actual
cancer, but Katie...

617
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:57,788
No, Katie's dying from...
bureaucratic stupidity.

618
00:30:58,718 --> 00:31:01,386
Just years of hard work,

619
00:31:01,411 --> 00:31:04,584
finally developed a
medicine that was working,

620
00:31:04,609 --> 00:31:06,788
and instead of helping people access it,

621
00:31:06,813 --> 00:31:10,903
our government...
is dismantling science.

622
00:31:11,761 --> 00:31:13,833
Just like that, clinical trial gone.

623
00:31:14,010 --> 00:31:15,839
And not just Katie, or cancer,

624
00:31:15,977 --> 00:31:21,880
it's maternal health, diabetes
prevention, substance abuse programs.

625
00:31:23,329 --> 00:31:26,885
Space exploration is even
on the damn chopping block.

626
00:31:26,910 --> 00:31:30,717
Just decades of groundbreaking work...

627
00:31:32,174 --> 00:31:38,318
without even a single thought
to its cost in human lives.

628
00:31:40,588 --> 00:31:43,290
I can't even give
Katie a chance to spend

629
00:31:43,315 --> 00:31:46,697
her last moments outside
of these hospital walls.

630
00:31:47,491 --> 00:31:49,861
Well, we're setting her up

631
00:31:49,885 --> 00:31:52,255
with in-home hospice care and she'll...

632
00:31:53,256 --> 00:31:56,845
It'll be a miracle if
she makes it that long.

633
00:32:06,315 --> 00:32:08,524
- Hey, I spoke to Kavita...
- Now's not a good time.

634
00:32:10,001 --> 00:32:11,727
Uh, Dr. Wright.

635
00:32:12,541 --> 00:32:14,232
How is Scott doing?

636
00:32:14,257 --> 00:32:16,910
His heart's had minimal
tissue coverage for two weeks.

637
00:32:16,935 --> 00:32:18,177
He's not great.

638
00:32:20,341 --> 00:32:21,377
Can I help you?

639
00:32:22,423 --> 00:32:26,841
I have worked really hard to build
a good reputation for myself here,

640
00:32:26,866 --> 00:32:30,478
and I-I can't stand by and
watch it all go down the drain.

641
00:32:31,639 --> 00:32:35,194
Dr. Mohanty lied in the M&M.
I didn't stitch over the pedicle.

642
00:32:35,219 --> 00:32:37,551
I wanted to sew around the
pedicle, but she wouldn't let me.

643
00:32:37,576 --> 00:32:42,751
And I don't know why she lied,
but I promise you it wasn't me.

644
00:32:43,962 --> 00:32:45,682
That's quite the sob
story you've got there.

645
00:32:45,791 --> 00:32:47,517
I'm setting the record straight.

646
00:32:47,542 --> 00:32:49,770
Look, hospitals are high school.
Emotions are high.

647
00:32:49,795 --> 00:32:54,524
Status matters. People are competitive,
and desperate, and insecure.

648
00:32:55,422 --> 00:32:58,606
I need my surgeons to
be mature, to rise above,

649
00:32:58,631 --> 00:33:00,712
to not get sucked into
the drama and the politics.

650
00:33:00,737 --> 00:33:02,163
Did you have a good
outcome or a bad one?

651
00:33:02,188 --> 00:33:04,086
- That's all I care about.
- Understood.

652
00:33:04,176 --> 00:33:07,628
I will make sure that Scott
has his labs in the morning.

653
00:33:07,735 --> 00:33:09,599
You're not on his surgery anymore.

654
00:33:09,752 --> 00:33:12,756
Hey, Kwan, have you ever
done a sternal reconstruction?

655
00:33:13,211 --> 00:33:14,212
No.

656
00:33:15,340 --> 00:33:16,582
You will tomorrow.

657
00:33:16,607 --> 00:33:19,886
Come with me, and I'll give
you my notes on the case.

658
00:33:32,907 --> 00:33:34,247
Did you figure it out?

659
00:33:34,272 --> 00:33:38,177
Making the bionic hand work
for competitive mountain biking?

660
00:33:38,681 --> 00:33:40,611
- No.
- So that's it.

661
00:33:40,636 --> 00:33:41,672
I'm done.

662
00:33:42,779 --> 00:33:44,558
Not necessarily.

663
00:33:44,583 --> 00:33:46,585
I've come up with another option.

664
00:33:46,610 --> 00:33:49,278
Now, this is just a
prototype, but the idea is

665
00:33:49,303 --> 00:33:51,891
that instead of your bionic
hand gripping the handlebar,

666
00:33:51,916 --> 00:33:53,779
we build an attachment to the bike

667
00:33:54,539 --> 00:33:57,161
and a terminal device that
you'd wear only while biking.

668
00:33:59,115 --> 00:34:00,323
Keep talking.

669
00:34:00,348 --> 00:34:04,309
We'd make a custom,
activity-specific prosthetic

670
00:34:04,870 --> 00:34:07,666
that would snap into
the bike attachment.

671
00:34:07,691 --> 00:34:09,550
And it'd be built so you could snap

672
00:34:09,575 --> 00:34:11,919
quickly out of the receiver for safety.

673
00:34:12,128 --> 00:34:15,821
If you like it, we could find a
prosthetist to collaborate with

674
00:34:15,846 --> 00:34:18,228
and maybe even a sponsor
will help cover the costs.

675
00:34:20,058 --> 00:34:21,611
This is, uh...

676
00:34:22,542 --> 00:34:24,372
This is amazing.

677
00:34:25,649 --> 00:34:27,203
You made this. How?

678
00:34:27,228 --> 00:34:30,767
No, no, this was all Dr. Lincoln.
I know nothing about bikes.

679
00:34:30,792 --> 00:34:33,427
Man, thank you.

680
00:34:34,796 --> 00:34:36,476
I don't know what I
would have done if I...

681
00:34:36,501 --> 00:34:37,778
You're welcome.

682
00:34:45,004 --> 00:34:46,454
Should I not ask?

683
00:34:46,995 --> 00:34:49,372
Dr. Wright said that
I was being dramatic,

684
00:34:49,397 --> 00:34:51,157
and she doesn't want
to work with me anymore.

685
00:34:51,945 --> 00:34:53,963
I'm sorry, I know the truth.

686
00:34:53,988 --> 00:34:55,955
I don't think you're being dramatic.

687
00:34:55,980 --> 00:34:57,860
Everyone who knows and
loves you feels the same.

688
00:34:58,314 --> 00:34:59,763
I'm not so sure.

689
00:35:01,133 --> 00:35:02,514
Hey, hey, I need a favor.

690
00:35:02,652 --> 00:35:03,894
It's about Katie.

691
00:35:03,919 --> 00:35:05,940
You know I can't disclose
her medical information,

692
00:35:05,965 --> 00:35:07,657
but nice job getting
her to stick around.

693
00:35:07,682 --> 00:35:09,684
What if we took her to your place?

694
00:35:09,864 --> 00:35:11,693
To what, die at my house?

695
00:35:12,489 --> 00:35:14,294
You want her to die at my house.

696
00:35:14,319 --> 00:35:16,493
Well, okay, technically it's
my Aunt Meredith's house.

697
00:35:16,631 --> 00:35:18,126
- All right?
- She's gonna go to her own home next week.

698
00:35:18,150 --> 00:35:19,979
She doesn't have that long.

699
00:35:21,665 --> 00:35:23,335
You sure this is a good idea?

700
00:35:23,735 --> 00:35:25,081
She's dying.

701
00:35:26,007 --> 00:35:28,308
I'll ask for time off so I
can take care of her myself.

702
00:35:28,333 --> 00:35:29,886
No.

703
00:35:30,249 --> 00:35:31,647
We'll take shifts.

704
00:35:32,618 --> 00:35:33,860
Thank you.

705
00:35:35,443 --> 00:35:36,651
Count Kwan in too.

706
00:35:36,676 --> 00:35:39,300
He owes me for putting up with Mohanty.

707
00:35:46,438 --> 00:35:48,270
Hey, uh, Chief, look, um...

708
00:35:49,862 --> 00:35:51,403
I just wanted to apologize.

709
00:35:51,582 --> 00:35:53,966
I-I got excited about a flashy case

710
00:35:53,991 --> 00:35:56,188
and I-I let things get out of hand.

711
00:35:56,844 --> 00:36:00,192
A few weeks ago, a case like
that would've made my year.

712
00:36:00,443 --> 00:36:02,652
A spleen the size of a sandbag?

713
00:36:02,677 --> 00:36:04,576
I'd have taken photos too.

714
00:36:04,691 --> 00:36:06,693
But I'm feeling different now.

715
00:36:06,718 --> 00:36:08,582
Bad different?

716
00:36:08,856 --> 00:36:10,794
You know, I tried to push it down and

717
00:36:10,818 --> 00:36:12,756
return to work like nothing happened.

718
00:36:12,894 --> 00:36:17,347
These days, the patients that
I can't stop thinking about

719
00:36:17,485 --> 00:36:19,453
are the ones we couldn't get to in time.

720
00:36:20,730 --> 00:36:23,940
And instead of addressing the problem,

721
00:36:23,965 --> 00:36:29,334
we're patting ourselves on the
back for removing a massive spleen.

722
00:36:29,359 --> 00:36:32,431
Look, having a perspective
shift after cancer...

723
00:36:32,456 --> 00:36:34,454
it's... it's natural.

724
00:36:34,479 --> 00:36:36,065
I mean, I've been there.

725
00:36:36,090 --> 00:36:37,781
But what if I can't unsee this?

726
00:36:37,919 --> 00:36:39,162
Would that be so bad?

727
00:36:39,811 --> 00:36:41,529
Maybe it's time to start a new chapter.

728
00:36:41,553 --> 00:36:42,952
Spoken like a younger man.

729
00:36:43,682 --> 00:36:45,996
You know, I'm, um, just a guy who

730
00:36:46,021 --> 00:36:48,569
has a lot of experience starting over.

731
00:36:49,947 --> 00:36:52,295
Look, I'm gonna go check on our patient.

732
00:36:54,739 --> 00:36:56,672
It really was quite a
spleen, though, wasn't it?

733
00:36:56,697 --> 00:36:58,134
Lord have mercy.

734
00:37:03,876 --> 00:37:07,545
Okay, monitor her pain and
oxygen requirements and page me

735
00:37:07,570 --> 00:37:09,685
if we need to take more
fluid off of her abdomen.

736
00:37:09,710 --> 00:37:12,713
Hey, Dr. Bailey, can
we run something by you?

737
00:37:13,259 --> 00:37:15,606
Why do I feel like I'm
not gonna like this?

738
00:37:15,631 --> 00:37:19,444
Uh, well, uh, Griffith offered
to take Katie to her home.

739
00:37:19,597 --> 00:37:22,289
We all know there's a good chance
she won't make it to her own home

740
00:37:22,314 --> 00:37:24,005
if she waits for hospice to be set up.

741
00:37:24,446 --> 00:37:26,689
All she wants is to
not die in a hospital.

742
00:37:26,859 --> 00:37:28,516
Yeah. What do you think?

743
00:37:28,763 --> 00:37:33,458
I think you two have
lost your ever-loving minds.

744
00:37:33,596 --> 00:37:36,125
Katie is not a stray cat to take in.

745
00:37:36,150 --> 00:37:37,703
She needs 24/7 care.

746
00:37:37,728 --> 00:37:39,749
Adams, Kwan, and I would take shifts.

747
00:37:39,774 --> 00:37:41,959
Yeah, and... and her mom can
stay in their spare bedroom.

748
00:37:41,983 --> 00:37:43,813
Sorry.

749
00:37:43,838 --> 00:37:45,329
What about pain management?

750
00:37:45,354 --> 00:37:47,931
We can get her scripts filled
and administer them at the house.

751
00:37:47,955 --> 00:37:49,784
Yeah, and I can drain
her abdomen when needed.

752
00:37:50,035 --> 00:37:51,589
Look, it's literally her dying wish.

753
00:37:51,614 --> 00:37:52,891
I hear you.

754
00:37:54,168 --> 00:37:56,184
But as her surgeon and a leader in

755
00:37:56,208 --> 00:37:58,655
this hospital, I... I cannot advise it.

756
00:37:59,138 --> 00:38:03,142
Okay, she would need a... a
hospital bed, an oxygen concentrator.

757
00:38:03,281 --> 00:38:04,696
Are you writing this down?

758
00:38:04,834 --> 00:38:06,284
- Oh.
- Yeah.

759
00:38:16,495 --> 00:38:19,947
Finally, I was about to go
to Saigon Palace by myself.

760
00:38:20,194 --> 00:38:21,753
Yeah, I was looking over Dr. Wright's

761
00:38:21,777 --> 00:38:23,335
notes for the sternal reconstruction.

762
00:38:23,705 --> 00:38:25,424
I heard you were joining the case.

763
00:38:25,618 --> 00:38:27,172
I'll fill you in over pho.

764
00:38:27,879 --> 00:38:29,121
I can't do it.

765
00:38:29,151 --> 00:38:31,905
Banh mi. Whatever.
I'm starving. Let's go.

766
00:38:32,039 --> 00:38:36,250
I told Wright to find another
resident for the procedure tomorrow.

767
00:38:36,918 --> 00:38:39,161
- Why?
- Jules is my friend.

768
00:38:40,801 --> 00:38:42,906
Turns out you and I aren't
as alike as we thought.

769
00:38:44,563 --> 00:38:47,499
I already told Wright that I was
committed to assist Altman tomorrow.

770
00:38:49,463 --> 00:38:50,740
You didn't tell her about me?

771
00:38:51,748 --> 00:38:53,991
I was going to give you a
chance to do it yourself.

772
00:38:59,491 --> 00:39:01,280
I hope you get the job in Boston.

773
00:39:04,617 --> 00:39:06,207
We often place blame because

774
00:39:06,232 --> 00:39:08,104
it's easier than taking responsibility.

775
00:39:08,740 --> 00:39:11,467
If you always look outward,
you never have to turn inward.

776
00:39:11,535 --> 00:39:13,019
Seriously?

777
00:39:13,831 --> 00:39:16,052
- I get to leave?
- Yeah.

778
00:39:16,077 --> 00:39:20,056
We arranged medical
transport, and Dr. Griffith

779
00:39:20,081 --> 00:39:22,256
is working to get you
discharged right now.

780
00:39:22,394 --> 00:39:25,199
I'll stock the fridge, cook
meals, whatever I need to do.

781
00:39:25,224 --> 00:39:26,504
No. That... that's not necessary.

782
00:39:26,529 --> 00:39:29,256
We, uh... We want to help.

783
00:39:31,252 --> 00:39:32,506
Thank you.

784
00:39:33,778 --> 00:39:35,592
None of this would have
happened without you.

785
00:39:38,950 --> 00:39:42,091
But progress only comes when
you shine the light on yourself.

786
00:39:47,156 --> 00:39:49,503
Didn't I fold all this laundry earlier?

787
00:39:49,734 --> 00:39:52,226
Hattie spit up
everywhere, so did Peyton.

788
00:39:52,251 --> 00:39:54,332
Luna got the ketchup bottle and...

789
00:39:54,357 --> 00:39:56,535
You know what?
I don't want to talk about it.

790
00:39:59,392 --> 00:40:01,394
My shoulder still hurts.

791
00:40:03,683 --> 00:40:06,434
I was hoping it'd get better,
and I'd go back to work

792
00:40:07,966 --> 00:40:10,728
and build the safest
staircase ever to exist,

793
00:40:10,753 --> 00:40:13,583
but obviously, that hasn't happened.

794
00:40:13,721 --> 00:40:17,449
Well, you don't have to
fix everything yourself.

795
00:40:17,587 --> 00:40:19,417
Yeah, I've realized that.

796
00:40:20,210 --> 00:40:22,765
But you might have to go
back to work eventually

797
00:40:22,903 --> 00:40:24,939
so we can afford to pay Elroy to do it.

798
00:40:29,462 --> 00:40:31,380
- I was wondering...
- Mm-hmm.

799
00:40:31,405 --> 00:40:35,236
what if Elroy didn't
actually fix this place?

800
00:40:36,769 --> 00:40:39,895
We've really pushed our luck
already with these stairs,

801
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:43,485
the-the fireplace, the
balcony, the glass doors.

802
00:40:43,510 --> 00:40:45,166
What if he fixed my rental instead?

803
00:40:45,437 --> 00:40:48,648
You want us to move into the man cave?

804
00:40:49,061 --> 00:40:53,134
It's in a great neighborhood, and
it would be way easier to babyproof.

805
00:40:54,935 --> 00:40:57,820
This place just has so many memories.

806
00:40:57,845 --> 00:41:01,259
You know, movie nights on this couch,

807
00:41:01,284 --> 00:41:03,737
the Nicoletti's take-out
dinners on that table.

808
00:41:03,762 --> 00:41:06,548
You proposed to me, right there.

809
00:41:08,670 --> 00:41:11,845
- Yeah.
- Guess we'll have to make new memories.

810
00:41:16,163 --> 00:41:17,475
We will.

811
00:41:28,329 --> 00:41:29,502
What do you think?

812
00:41:30,647 --> 00:41:31,889
How do you feel?

813
00:41:32,161 --> 00:41:33,438
Millin.

814
00:41:34,044 --> 00:41:35,460
What are you doing here?

815
00:41:35,485 --> 00:41:38,125
Uh, your front driver's side
tire is looking a little low.

816
00:41:38,243 --> 00:41:39,762
You're checking my tires?

817
00:41:40,532 --> 00:41:43,717
Today sucked in a lot of ways,

818
00:41:43,742 --> 00:41:47,021
but the worst part is that it
confirmed what you think about me.

819
00:41:47,046 --> 00:41:48,748
- Millin...
- And I know that I've disappointed you.

820
00:41:48,773 --> 00:41:51,622
And you're not wrong, I haven't
always been honest with you.

821
00:41:51,647 --> 00:41:54,207
Like, sometimes when I'm too tired,
I don't dictate your op notes,

822
00:41:54,232 --> 00:41:55,867
I make my interns do it.

823
00:41:55,892 --> 00:41:58,313
And I know where you keep your
secret stash of protein bars

824
00:41:58,338 --> 00:41:59,892
at the nurses' station,

825
00:41:59,917 --> 00:42:02,644
and I'll sneak one if I don't
have time to get to the cafeteria.

826
00:42:06,290 --> 00:42:09,398
And I coached your
patient... behind your back

827
00:42:09,423 --> 00:42:11,252
to get around his insurance,

828
00:42:11,343 --> 00:42:14,139
so you would have to
operate on him that day.

829
00:42:16,293 --> 00:42:17,433
He was in pain.

830
00:42:18,335 --> 00:42:22,593
I didn't know what else to do,
so I lied, but I didn't lie today.

831
00:42:22,618 --> 00:42:25,310
I didn't sew over Scott's pedicle,

832
00:42:25,335 --> 00:42:30,143
and I wasn't trying to frame
Mohanty or not take responsibility.

833
00:42:30,168 --> 00:42:33,551
I just didn't do it, and
I need you to know that.

834
00:42:33,576 --> 00:42:35,700
It's not my department.
I'm not the one you need to convince.

835
00:42:35,725 --> 00:42:38,417
I don't care what anyone else thinks.

836
00:42:45,739 --> 00:42:47,086
I believe you.

837
00:42:52,119 --> 00:42:53,811
I'll, uh... I'll see you tomorrow.

838
00:42:56,279 --> 00:42:57,660
Ask the questions,

839
00:42:58,732 --> 00:43:00,389
and the answers might surprise you.
