All right. Here we are.
-Where are we? -Yeah, you don't remember
that place that I told you about?
You still want to have some fun, right?
No. No. I just...
I just... Not anymore.
I want to go home.
Come...
I thought you wanted to come here, though.
-Come on. -Okay. Oof...
Whoa, whoa.
Let me help.
I got you.
Mm... So many stairs.
You got it.
Oh...
-Randy, talk to me. Big guy.
-You on the road yet? -No, not yet.
-I'm getting some work done. -Cool.
Well, I got this job for you in Kansas City.
-Okay, tell me about it. -There's a
Dr. Evelyn Martell who went missing.
-Her sister posted the job. -Police?
Uh... don't think so. At least not yet.
She sounded a little frantic in the message, but
-she checks out. -Okay.
Yeah, send me the address.
You got it.
Good morning.
-Morning. -I, uh...
I got you a little something for your new office.
It's a tree of wisdom.
Oh.
-You know, I-I kill plants. -Not that one.
It's so easy. You barely even have to water it.
-What-what... what does it do? -It, uh,
grows and it makes you happy.
- Yeah? -Yeah.
You can give it a name if you want. You can talk to it.
I-I actually like to play mine music.
-All right, maybe I'll do that. Thank you so much. -Yeah,
-of course. -This is really nice. Look, the...
Um, is Colter gonna take that case you were talking about?
He's on the way. You know. I just let him do his thing.
-Oh. You need... -Oh! Here, let me help.
Oh, thank you. You're the best.
And, uh, if you do not mind,
there are two more in my trunk.
-Yeah, I'll be right back. -Thank you.
And, um, I want to show you the little war room that I made
-for the Maxine case. -War room? We haven't even
-taken the case yet. -I know.
Yeah, it's more of, like, a-a table and a whiteboard.
But I've got this new system
that I think you'll really like that'll help us
sort through all this discovery paperwork.
-I love a system. -Yeah.
-Get it, girl. -Okay. Thank you.
-Good morning. -Speaking of systems...
-Yes? -Can I get you for just
five minutes? I want to show you this new
passkey security system that I'm putting in.
Oh, no. Can we do it later?
No. I need five minutes.
-Okay. -All right.
-Am I in trouble? -No. No, no, no.
I'm just trying to prevent digital backsliding, is all.
Wh... Have I been doing that?
Little bit, yeah. Come on. We'll tighten it up.
Okay. Come on. Let's do it.
-Oh, no, that's not... -Come on.
Janie Martell? Colter Shaw.
-Thank you for meeting me here. -Yeah, of course.
You say you found your sister's car?
-Yes, over there. -Okay.
Uh, Evie never came home last night
and then missed her shift today.
-She works here? -Yeah.
She's a fellow at the trauma surgery department
here at St. Patrick's. Um, I called the police,
but they didn't find any signs of foul play,
so it's not a priority at this point.
And what do you think happened?
I don't know. Um...
But something's been off with her for the past couple weeks.
She hasn't been herself. She's been frazzled
and short with me, and I don't think she's been sleeping much.
So, maybe she took off to sort of, uh, reset?
I don't think so. She doesn't reset. She, like,
-never takes a break. -This hers?
Yeah.
Um...
What about, uh, hospital security-- they see anything?
No, um, they said this part of the lot's
in a blind spot, so, uh, it didn't show up on surveillance.
-I don't know if that's true. -They show you?
No. That's just what the head of security told me.
Okay.
Your sister in a relationship?
-No. -No?
What about at work? Anything at work going on?
Maybe. Few weeks ago,
she came home from her shift and she was a mess.
She went straight for a bottle of vodka,
and was breaking things.
And she's done that before?
No. I've never seen her like that.
I asked her what happened, but she wouldn't tell me.
How about more recent? Any-Anything at all more recent?
Um... Uh...
She had a meeting with a Dr. Hooper,
I think he's the, uh, attending surgeon on her team.
-Okay. -I don't know what it was about but, uh, she was nervous.
And when I saw her afterwards, she...
It just seemed like it didn't go well.
She was really distant.
I'm sorry, I have to ask. Do-do you think
there's a possibility that maybe your sister...
maybe she did something to herself?
I don't know.
Please help me find her.
I'll help you.
Dr. Hooper. Hi, I'm Colter Shaw.
Looking for Evie Martell. Her sister hired me to find her.
She's gone missing.
-Uh, let's step in here. -Sure.
I was wondering where Evelyn was today.
She never made it home from her shift last night.
Her car's still in the parking lot.
You don't seem too surprised by that.
Uh, she's been having some problems lately.
Her sister mentioned, uh, you had a meeting with her recently?
I did. Um, about a month ago, uh, a patient was brought in
after a car accident and she came into the OR and just...
...froze up. And then she walked out and I had to
-finish the procedure for her. -Hmm.
Do you have any idea what that was about?
She wouldn't say.
But her behavior had been off lately,
so I, um, I checked on her last week
and, uh, found her in the supply room,
and she brushed me off. But when she left,
I found vials of lorazepam had been stolen.
-Did you report her? -No.
No, I didn't want to end her career.
-I tried to handle it myself. -Okay.
-She ever do that before? -No, no.
I talked to her about it, but I got a sense that
maybe she was dealing with some trauma
that she didn't want to share with me.
Some recent trauma, maybe?
Well, I'm not a shrink, so I don't want to speculate, but
a lot of type A people like Evie are covering for something,
um, trying to work away the demons. Uh...
I was hoping that, you know, she would come to me
if she needed someone to talk to.
Now I wish I had been more firm with her.
Hmm. Did you see Evie last night?
I did. I did. I took her off the surgery schedule for a week,
kept her in the clinic.
She seemed fine.
I'd love to take a look at the, uh, security footage
-from the hospital, if I could. -Uh...
We have, uh, strict privacy protocols.
-We-we... -No, I'm sure. I-I'm sure you do.
I just, uh...
I'm trying to find out what happened to her.
Uh...
You have ten minutes, but that's it.
Look, if security saw something suspicious,
I'm-I'm they would have reported it.
Yeah. One second.
Yeah.
Huh. See that?
That's not Evie.
You sure? That's the same necklace
from the photo that her sister sent me.
Is she wearing a wig? -Yeah.
-Why would she do that? -I don't know.
Huh.
You see that? Look. Look at that.
She's covering her face. She knows the cameras are there.
Strange.
I hope she's not having a psychotic break.
Her sister had the same concern, actually.
Wherever she's going, she doesn't want to be recognized.
Hey, Randy. Got any information
-on our missing doctor's phone? Nothing.
It's either dead or the SIM card's been pulled.
Either way, there's not much I can do there.
All right. I got her leaving the hospital last night.
I need to know where she went.
You got a time stamp on her exit?
11:05.
Her car's still there in the parking lot, right?
So, she either walked
or somebody picked her up.
Could have called a cab.
Yeah. Let me see what I can find.
She's definitely running away
