The Resident

- Previously on The Resident... - I saw Yorn.

- Did he say why he hasn't hired a CEO? - They're selling the hospital.

- Oh. - I need to show Yorn that Chastain

is worth a hell of a lot more than he thinks it is.

My father, when he died,

I didn't even get to say goodbye.

What I would do for just one more day with my dad.

Sorry. Losing someone is never easy.

I'll get someone to cover for you.

No.

I'm okay. I just need a minute.

It's official.

A baby?

What is this?

Uh, breakfast in bed.

- Where did you even get this? - Ah...

Pancakes?

Your favorite.

Blue wildflowers. - Aw...

Nic's favorite berries. Ah!

Get in there, get in there.

All right. Mmm. Mmm.

Whose dad do we want to call first, yours or mine?

I think we should wait a little longer.

Well, sure, there's no rush to tell anyone.

I mean, right?

Your pregnancy is already further along

than it was last time.

This time is gonna be different, and it's...

it's gonna be okay. You know that, right?

But we can't.

I had a miscarriage, and it was awful.

And if it happens again,

I don't want to have to tell everyone,

so I just...

just want to wait a little longer, okay?

Of course.

Whatever you want.

Thank you.

I'm coming.

All right!

Did I park in someone's spot or something?

Okay!

Mom. What are you...

- what are you doing here? - Surprise.

I thought I'd finally come visit my s...

What happened to you?

Oh, my God. Were you in a car accident?

I knew something was wrong. I knew it.

A mother always knows.

Mom, I'm fine.

We had an ER patient with psychosis,

and... someone should have restrained him immediately,

but we missed it, and then he was...

swinging at a nurse, and I...

uh, went in to help.

Yeah, in retrospect, I should have just left it to the...

security.

You are a hero.

My poor boy.

But where are your pajamas, huh?

And, uh...

what is that smell?

You know, just wait right here. I just got to... I'll wash up.

Hey, don't worry.

I-I'm going to take care of everything.

The way you drive like a hellion,

I was sure you'd beat me here.

Normally, I would beat you here, because you drive like a nun,

but today... I stopped for this.

Doughnuts. - Mm.

Maple. I believe they're your favorite.

And I believe you mentioned

a fondness for breakfast burritos.

Oh, I do not hate

this part of being in a relationship.

Oh, such high praise.

Tell me, what can I do to make sure you stay this effusive?

There is one thing.

Uh, you can...

marry me.

My 0-1 visa is expiring.

I knew it was coming, so I applied way in advance.

Yesterday I found out it was denied.

Mina, you should have told me this yesterday.

I was gonna tell you when I came over last night,

but you had made such a nice dinner,

and I didn't want to ruin it, so... I said nothing.

And then we got occupied with other things.

I don't understand why the government

would deny your renewal,

as many American lives as you've saved.

Since February of 2020, Nigerians are no longer able

to obtain visas to immigrate to the U.S. permanently.

If I want to stay, I have to find a way

to renew my current visa or marry an American citizen.

- You are terrible at this. - I applied months in advance.

No, no, I mean this.

You know, Mina, proposals usually come...

with a ring.

- And a carefully crafted speech -

about commitment and love, full of compliments.

Flowers wouldn't hurt, either.

Okay, so will you do it?

You didn't even buy me a nice dinner first.

I got you doughnuts.

True. And they're maple.

Hey. Come here.

Mm...

Breathe.

It's gonna be okay, Mina.

We can make this work.

All right?

Love.

Honor.

Obey.

Ooh, I love the way that sounds.

Don't you? - Okay, uh,

maybe we are rushing this.

Oh, no, we're definitely rushing this.

What's that about?

Good morning.

Good question.

How's the other guy look?

Funny.

I couldn't sleep, so I went out for a bike ride

in the middle of the night.

And it was pitch black, and I was tired.

Yeah, I know.

It was stupid. - Mm.

I, uh, hit a curb and I wiped out.

Oh, and then my mother showed up this morning unannounced and,

uh, I lied to her about it,

because I didn't want her to worry.

Anything else you want to know?

Well, your father passed away, and...

It's been months.

I'm fine. - You're not fine.

You're grieving. You don't need to put a timeline on it.

Getting through it takes as long as it takes.

- Let's just talk about how you're feeling. - Okay.

I said fine.

You don't need to ask me again.

Excuse me? Excuse me?

Can we get some help?

Okay, what's going on?

My daughter Trinity needs medical attention.

No, I don't.

What's happening, Trinity?

Show them.

It looks worse than it is.

My mom is making this a big thing.

Your hand looks like a sea monster.

It's a big thing.

Whatever. I tripped on the stairs.

You, too?

Um, bike accident.

I don't need sedation.

Just pop my fingers back into place.

Trust me, I have a high pain tolerance.

Look how well she tolerated the existential pain

of being stuck at home with her mom during lockdown.

I was supposed to speak at my graduation.

Then I didn't go to college in the fall

'cause it's all distance learning.

Apologies for our family drama. It's been a year.

Well, we're ready to fix your fingers

if you really want to do it that way.

Positive? - Yep.

Okay.

Trinity, look at your mom.

Let's remember the good parts of lockdown.

The tap shoes.

The quail. - -

Quail? - We incubated eggs

and raised them to adulthood.

- Kept the only girl. - Sidney Vicious.

Ah, Sidney Vicious. I love that name.

She's coming with me when I get my own apartment,

which I'm supposed to look at today.

Finally.

You're all done.

You should be good to apartment hunt now.

Actually, there's something else.

- This wasn't Trinity's first fall. - Mom, stop.

You said we didn't have to...

She's been off lately.

Something with her balance, maybe.

We can take a look at that.

I said no. I just want to go and get my...

If you want a cosigner for that apartment,

you will stay in that bed and let the doctors work.

It will be quick.

We'll get X-rays on your hand just to be safe.

And then we'll be back for a full physical.

I'll let imaging know.

Procurement coordinator to the ICU.

Quail.

Maybe Nic and I need to bring some variety

to our chicken coop, huh?
