I'll be done in a moment.

- What are you doing?

- I'll be done in a moment.

I just need to

input some orders.

I'll be done in a

moment, nurse Blackwell.

Hey.

Hi.

What's that?

I grabbed what I could

from your office.

And I got the new

remote access codes.

I also found this.

Have a look at this

right now, please.

When was this uploaded?

Today.

He has files on all

of our subjects.

Even surveillance video.

That slimy son of a b*tch.

He wants my enzyme.

What do you mean?

Abe Wilks's widow is coming in

with a lawyer tomorrow

to meet with ray.

He's gonna show 'em this,

gonna ask like he's

just discovered it.

And throw you under the bus.

Us, Boris?

What are we gonna do?

We gotta stop Legro.

He put this up on

the network, okay.

Somebody else is

gonna find this.

Oh, sh*t.

Wait a minute, crick.

All this construction,

we've been offline today.

Yeah?

These files won't get

uploaded until we

go back online tomorrow

morning at 6:
00 A.M.

So we have tonight.

Our new passwords give

us limited access, okay?

We get alarms, doors, power.

But we're not gonna

get into the network

to change medical files.

We have to destroy the network.

There's something else.

What?

We can't get any

enzyme from Wilks.

Apparently he had two prior mis.

You didn't know that Wilks

had a couple of heart attacks.

It wasn't in his file, and

it wasn't in his physical.

We are so close.

We just need one more subject

to extract enzyme from.

Legro.

Well that'd kill two

birds with one stone.

Mm-hmm.

You know what happens when

you're stung by a jellyfish?

There's pain and then paralysis.

Hey, Brittany.

I'm sorry, I can't do this.

What-what's-what's wrong?

She is, she's all wrong.

Sarah.

Shh.

Uh, well, I'm doctor Barnard.

I remember you.

Yeah.

Yeah, so, what did

you do to Brittany?

She asked me if I would

accept Jesus into my heart.

Really, what'd you tell her?

An honest and deeply

religious answer.

Oh, I see.

How long will I

be strapped here?

The straps are part of

our suicide precautions,

much like Brittany.

Brittany is a cause of

suicide, not a precaution.

So I have to ask,

do you still want,

do you think, Do you wanna be

a part of the world, our world?

Use grown up words.

Okay, how do you feel?

Please rephrase the question

so a concrete

answer is possible.

Okay, do you still

wanna kill yourself?

Not until you walked in.

I'm putting that

down as progress.

South union cardiac er.

Thank you.

Doc.

What? This patient

needs isolation?

You're no guiding light, Flem.

They take out the

trash every Tuesday.

Who's the resident on tonight?

Doctor Jenner.

She the one sleepin' with Legro?

I don't know, you

want me to ask her?

Uh, no.

Get her to handle this junkie.

How'd you get that?

Crack pipe blow up in your face?

I have to make an appointment

to see the cardiologist?

Okay, do you have insurance?

Yes, Michigan

blue cross blue shield.

- Okay, that should be a $200 copay.

- Okay.

Okay, we will get back

with you in a couple days,

and give you an appointment.

Sounds good, thank you.

- Okay, have a great day.

- You too.

My heart gently weeps.

You know, I was a dancer once.

Square dancer?

Ballet in Michigan, then

New York for four years.

What happened?

Fell in love with my director.

That's not good.

He likes to push

people as hard as he can.

And I, being naive,

did anything he wanted.

He pushed, and he pushed.

Until you broke.

No...

Yeah, I guess.

Are you aware of what crick did?

He replaced the

infected aortic valve.

That's the same valve that

stopped you from dancing.

The one with the birth defect.

Right.

So when crick

replaced the valve,

he treated both your problems.

Really, so it's all good now?

As long as it heals properly.

Should it?

It should.

Wait, so you're saying

that if this heals

I can dance again.

Square dancing, at

the very least.

Oh, uh, hi Marie.

What are you doing?

I-I just needed some gauze.

Anything taken must be logged.

Gotcha.

You know, we have some

exciting new developments

happening in the lab?

I could show you some

time, if your free.

I don't think so.

South union cardiac er.

No, sir, we don't

except that insurance.

No, sir, I can't

prescribe morphine.

No, sir, I will not go to hell.

Hey.

Hmm.

You already got your residency.

You can stop studying now.

Not after this morning, I can't.

Yes you can.

See one, do one, teach one.

That's how you learn.

See one, do one, teach one?

Yeah, like you and Marie.

See one, do one

we broke up months ago, okay?

Dump one.

Okay.

Sorry, sorry.

I did not dump her, okay?

I told her that I wanted

to focus more on medicine.

You, oh, okay, why not just

cheat on her and post

the video on Facebook?

That would have

been more humane.

Hey, suddenly doctor

freeze over there

is talking about being humane?

You dumped her to study more.

I mean, at least a guy who's

cheating is sexually active.

Hey, I'm way sexually

active, okay?

And you're the only woman I

know who's defending cheating.

I'm not, I'm just

saying that that's,

like, the worst possible

reason to dump somebody.

But it's true.

You know what's true?

You totally dumped

her 'cause you

wanted to get closer to crick,

and that is so beyond deranged.

And now you're defending

her which is another first.

No, this isn't about him or her.

It's about you and

your ambitions.

If you want cardiology so badly,

why not just apply to a

program like at main hospital?

Look, crick's just a surgeon.

And this hospital is so small.

I had an academic

hearing two years ago.

They wanted to expel

me, kick my ass out.

You didn't tell me that.

Yeah, well, I

didn't tell anyone.

And during the hearing I

was too scared to speak,

to scared to defend myself.

But, crick defended me.

He was there.

He see's something

in me, in my work,

that no one else does, so.

You know, you don't

owe crick anything.

Wait, what is that?

Oh.

Me and Marie from this morning?

Yeah, it's hilarious.

Yeah, ha ha ha.

What, Legro allows

you to do that?

Well, no, he's not really

in a position to

allow me anything.

Right, what, because uh,

your favorite

position is on top?

Excuse me?

Really?

No, come on, say it.

- No, okay, sorry.

- Say it. I know you want to.

- No, I didn't mean you and Legro.

- Call me a whore.

No, jeez, Ginny, come on.

Look, I don't see

him anymore, okay?

Okay.

Can I help you?

James.

James Ross. My,

how you've grown.

I hate to do this to you, son.

Looking good.

Really?

Knock knock.

Hey.

Just checkin' in.

Thanks, we're all set.

Crick cancel the restraints?

She's not suicidal.

Did you talk to crick?

Can I talk to you

outside for a sec?

Sarah, I'll be right back, okay?

She doesn't need restraints.

Doesn't matter, it's

cricks patient.

- She.

- What?

She's crick's patient.

Listen, I am not the dick, here.

You listen, if she really wanted

to kill herself she
