So are you to blame for the big mouth on this one?

- Please, maggie's been sassy ever since she could talk.

- It's not my fault; I was born that way.

So what should we do?

I'm off on Monday and the weather's supposed to be great.

- I'm actually flying back to dallas in a few hours.

I got to be back at the makeup counter tomorrow.

- Well, let's make the most of it, then.

Okay.

- Come on, let's go say hi to everybody.

Hey!

- Morning, ms. Goodwin. - Good morning.

- What brings you in on a Saturday?

- I could ask you the same thing.

- I'm filling in as trauma attending.

We haven't had an elective heart surgery in a week.

- Yes, I know we've had some cancellations

since dr. Downey died,

but we can't expect to rebuild a destination program overnight.

We've got a great team.

Word will spread.

Connor! Incoming.

With you.

Patient name: Glenn simon.

57-year-old male.

Gsc 15, vitals stable.

Got knocked off his horse at the polo ground.

Gross deformity to the right femur.

All right, let's go to t3.

- Mr. Simon, can you tell us what happened?

My buddy harvey is a cheater.

That's what happened.

Tried to pull a 90-degree ride-off.

Knocked me clear off my pony.

- All right, let's get an x-ray and call ortho.

Got it.

- All right, let's move him on my count.

Ready?

One, two, three.

- Mr. Simon, any pain? - Not there.

- Okay. - Ugh!

Oh, ho, ho. - Looks like we found it.

- Yep. - Let's get him off the board.

All right, on my count: One, two, three.

Gently. There we go.

Nice.

get an iv started.

Hang a bolus of saline.

Five milligrams of morphine for the pain.

- We're gonna get you fixed up, mr. Simon.

- I never like to admit that my wife was right,

but I'd be in a lot less pain if I stuck to golf like...

she asked me to...

- Mr. Simon? Mr. Simon, can you hear me?

He's stroking.

All right, give 20 milligrams of labetalol.

Let's get him to ct and echo now.

- Maybe I'll come and visit in dallas.

I can use some primping.

- You know, I actually might be out of town a bit

over the next two months.

But after that, yeah.

Bye.

Bye.

- So, uh, how long's she been living in dallas?

I don't know.

She moved maybe nine, ten years ago.

- Let me guess... Because of a guy?

Something like that.

Denise!

Whoa, easy, denise.

- Denise? Okay. - You're okay.

- I'm right here. I'm right here.

Are you okay? - I can't see.

- Okay. Okay, okay, okay.

Okay, breathe. Breathe. - I can't see.

Breathe.

what's gotten into you?

What? Nothing.

Okay, something's different.

You look happy.

I'm just glad to have a weekend shift.

Looking forward to a quiet day.

- Hey, nat. - Yeah?

Will has the day off.

Thought jeff could follow you.

Sure.

Okay.

Announcer: All attending to...

- what've we got? - Mid-20s male.

Found him down by the train station.

Gcs 14.

Fever's 103. Bp's 160 over 90.

Heart rate 110.

- Sir, can you tell us what happened?

- I don't think you'll get very far.

He doesn't speak a word of english.

No id... this is everything we found on him.

- It's a foreign currency. - Let me see that.

Yeah, it's thai.

- If he just arrived to the u.S.,

he could have brought whatever this is with him.

Let's track down a translator online.

- Right. Let's get him to t2.

- Mr. Simon, we're taking you up to the surgical icu.

You understand?

Glenn, honey.

I'm here.

Glenn?

Glenn!

Mrs. Simon?

- Why isn't my husband saying anything?

- Mrs. Simon, I'm dr. Rhodes.

I'm taking care of your husband.

Why don't we find somewhere where we can talk?

So your husband has what is called a bifurcated vena cava.

It allowed the emboli from his leg fracture

to bypass his lungs and go straight into his brain.

With your consent, I would like to operate.

- I'd like to get a second opinion.

Glenn has a partner who's on the board at the mayo clinic,

and I'm sure he could refer us to a cardiologist there.

I understand.

As long as he has the fracture,

he's at risk of having another stroke.

And we can't fix his leg until I fix his heart.

Waiting could put him in even greater danger.

- Fool still thinks he's 25 years old.

I came here to give him a piece of my mind,

and now this.

Mrs. Simon.

We have a great team here at gaffney.

I believe when your husband comes out of surgery,

he's gonna be good and ready to receive a piece of your mind.

Okay.

- Will, uh... Dr. Halstead...

Gave her a dose of iv steroids.

Now her vision is starting to return.

- Any idea what may have caused this?

- Not yet. - Can we get you anything?

- No, you both got enough on your plate.

And I'm fine... really.

- Denise, I would really encourage you to stay.

I'm okay.

where you going?

- If I leave now, I can still catch my flight.

- But a second ago, you couldn't see your hand

in front of your face.

Yeah, and now I can.

Thanks for the great care.

Don't be stubborn, denise.

- You know I've always had migraines.

This is just another passing episode.

- Transient blindness can actually be caused

by a number of things.

We should run some more tests. - Exactly.

What happens next time that you have

one of your passing episodes,

and you're driving on the expressway?

Fine. Fine.

Can we make this quick?

- Ah... this is what I get for trying to take on

a 12-pound pot roast.

Good news is, it's just a second-degree burn.

Might blister and swell a bit,

but you'll live to cook another day.

Okay, bp's 160 over 90.

- Let's page ob... Have them take a look.

You're, uh, seven months along?

Yeah, why?

Honey, are you okay?

Everything's okay.

- Your wife's blood pressure is slightly elevated.

I'd like to get some labs and an ultrasound

just as a precaution.

Is that necessary?

I've been seeing my doula regularly,

and she says everything's good.
