Every disease has its unique course
it takes in the body when left untreated.
The process begins with exposure to a root cause
that sends a ripple effect throughout the body.
Simone, - I didn't know, okay? - No, sorry.
I-I-I can't do the "I don't know"
story anymore.
You knew exactly what was happening.
You chose not to see it.
Yeah, I guess moving to Seattle hasn't changed
how quick you are to point a finger.
Excuse me?
Well, you constantly assume that I'm trying to hurt you--
No, you saw me come home - from work every night in tears. - Okay. Mm-hmm.
You saw me almost throw in the towel on my career.
You were too scared of tarnishing your sterling reputation
- to speak up for me! - I was an intern.
The disease then progresses,
ultimately resolving in one of three possible outcomes--
you get better, you stay chronically ill,
or you die. Simone: They kicked me out, Trey!
Oh, they've been fighting nonstop
since he arrived last night.
Yeah, I heard.
I almost fell asleep during rounds.
Well, maybe we should cancel.
Uh, we have an empty house.
We are having a party.
I don't care if he's her ex-fiancé or whatever.
Trey is the competition.
If they're fighting, it means you're still in this.
Team Skywalker.
You two were half a second away from boning last night.
The sexual tension was, frankly, oppressive.
Yeah, well, what am I supposed to about it?
Mm, stop sulking and tell her how you feel
so I don't have to look at your sad, sad face all night.
Surgeons swoop in once a diagnosis is made
and the patient needs reinforcements.
We take decisive action
in order to give them a fighting chance.
Ohh. I spent the first half of the day
fending off requests for comment...
...on the death of Jermaine Talbott
and the other half
trying to get a grasp on our budget deficits,
which are substantial, by the way.
Well, they always are.
Oh, I am kicking myself
for inviting Bailey and Warren to dinner tonight.
Makes two of us
especially because - Allison bit Pru again. - What?
I was told when I picked her up from daycare.
Why didn't you tell me?
I am. This is me telling you.
Wait. So, what-- Is this becoming a thing?
I mean, should we cancel dinner? You know what?
Don't-- Don't answer that.
I knew I should have picked up more wine.
I think Tuck is building a fort with Pru,
so we're set...
...unless you want to cancel and just go to bed early.
We will do no such thing.
Yeah.
What's that?
Well, we can't show up empty-handed.
Yeah, but what if it sends the wrong message?
What message? That we like pie?
Their daughter has now bitten our daughter.
Twice.
It's a problem.
Do you remember the last time
that you and I had a civilized, adult dinner
without children present?
Let's get out of here - while we still can. - Mm-hmm.
Mr. Simms needs neurochecks q two hours,
and Natalia Asaki was just admitted for pre-op,
so coordinate with Webber and Pierce.
Are you going to the party tonight?
You look nice.
In an appropriate, respectful way.
Just try not to kill anyone.
So... I guess we're the only ones stuck here
while everyone else gets drunk and makes poor decisions.
I hate the ICU.
Oh, there's nothing to it.
Just try not to kill anyone.
Everyone has to stop saying that.
Well, have fun.
While you're running codes, I'll be on Pierce's service,
scrubbing in on her Ivor Lewis procedure
in the morning.
Natalia Asaki?
I hate you.
Don't hate the player,
hate the game.
Okay, now I hate both.
Ew.
Uh, you know, I haven't had a chance
to congratulate you on your partial heart transplant.
Now, there's some groundbreaking stuff.
We worked hard on it. Thank you. Yeah.
Well, you keep this up, you'll be in line
for a Catherine Fox Award.
And you and Winston sure do make a great team.
Dr. Pierce...
I just wanted to say thank you
for allowing me to scrub in tomorrow--
Uh, Dr. Pierce, Dr. Webber,
I have studied the Ivor Lewis procedure extensively.
I know that the major complications
are respiratory and atrial arrhythmias,
which can be controlled by amiodarone.
Well, this is an 8-hour surgery,
so if you're not too tired after your overnight in the ICU,
you may also scrub in.
Who's a player now?
Natalia, Elliot. Welcome to Seattle.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
I hope your trip from Coeur d'Alene
wasn't too bad.
I slept through most of it, thanks to him.
And I'm highly caffeinated right now.
Well, we're glad you made it.
Dr. Kwan?
Natalia Asaki, 32, stage II esophageal cancer,
status post neoadjuvant therapy, admitted for pre-op
for an Ivor Lewis procedure first thing in the morning.
- Which is? - Uh, resecting the esophagus
through an abdominal incision and a right thoracotomy,
then pulling the stomach into the chest
to replace the esophagus.
I'm sorry.
Amor, my painting sold.
The landscape from our camping trip.
I love that one. Yeah.
How much?
$500.
She's an art teacher at an after-school program,
but she sells her own pieces on the side.
I'm sorry, but the past couple of months
of chemo and radiation were...
not the most fun I've ever had.
We're ready to put this chapter behind us.
Well, let's get a move on.
Okay, Kwan, Millin,
let's start Natalia's pre-op work-up--
bloodwork, EKG, chest X-ray.
Um, I definitely need all that before the surgery?
You do. We will be back in a bit.
Babe, don't worry.
We'll figure out a way to pay for it.
It's okay.
Oh, it's my fault?!
Look, I hate that they kicked you out.
Alright? I really hate it.
I promise you, I hate it more.
Oh, still so competitive.
Ah.
Hey.
Come here.
Trey, I was broken.
I-I felt... broken.
But I am sorry that I disappeared on you.
I'm sorry. I should have chased after you.
I wanted to. I should have.
I mean, you kinda did. You're here.
I feel like I waited too long.
Did I wait too long?
Can we just go to the party and try to have fun?
I missed you.
Ben, Bailey. Enter at your own risk.
Ooh, come on in. - Oooh, look at that. - Mm-hmm. Apple pie.
My mother's recipe.
Maybe you can think of it when you are approving
budget requests for the clinic.
Thank you. You shouldn't have.
Hey, I heard there were some fires down in south Seattle.
- You been on those? - Uh, no, no, no.
Uh, we have a little girl now, so I sit the crazy stuff out.
That never stopped Owen.
Ah, please excuse her.
She's exhausted after one day of the job
that you and I did for years.
Wine?
Uh, by wine, can you mean bourbon?
Good idea.
Yeah.
Cheese and crackers are on the coffee table.
- Oh. - Oh, fantastic.
I'd love a bite.
Chest X-ray is normal.
Coags, CBC, CMP all look good.
Oh, great. Let's start her on her bowel prep--
Help!
I was just finishing her EKG,
and she started seizing.
Okay, well, let's get her on her side.
Blood glucose was normal, so it can't be that.
And her sats are 92 on room air.
I checked her airway. There's no vomit.
Let's get some suction in here, anyway.
Elliot, does she have a history of epilepsy or alcohol abuse?
No, never. What's going on?
We don't know, but we are going to find out.
Let's load her up with Keppra and lorazepam.
A-And, Kwan, take Elliot out and page neuro.
- Let's hurry. - I love you, Natalia.
It's okay.
Yeah, my place is definitely a work in progress,
so you have to promise not to judge me when you get here.
Okay, is there a door?
There is.
Alright. A bed?
Uh-huh. No duvet cover, though.
No! Well, that's it. I'm canceling.
Okay, uh, crap.
I got to go.
I'll see you tomorrow. Okay.
Oh, hey.
You are still here. Awesome.
Uh, would you take Scout for a bit?
I was on my way home with him,
and I just got paged for a consult on a grand mal seizure.
Well, I was on my way home,
and I got egged by a couple of angry Tank fans.
Seriously?
Based on how tonight's going,
I could, uh, use some time with my only fan.
Okay. It should not take long.
You have fun with Daddy, okay?
Mwah! Bye.

Meningitis, encephalitis, alcohol withdrawal,

You two should get a divorce.
That's not funny.
No, and it wasn't meant to be.
Dr. Kwan, - please step outside. - No, medical divorce is a real thing.
It could help Elliot not get saddled by Natalia's debt.
It could help Natalia to qualify for more insurance or aid,

And if they have assets, it could protect them.

Just apologize.
Tell her you screwed up.
I don't apologize unless I'm wrong.
Now, can you go scrub in on the surgery
that you basically stole so I can focus?
Okay, Whitney, it's time to push.

Maybe not. They're snobs.
They're such snobs.
I'll tell you what, though.
They get that I don't want to lose you.
I have to fight for you.
Whatever it takes.
Our program treated me like human garbage.
And tonight you suggested
that if I had just stayed calm and collected
and continued to suck it up, that I might have--
No, I didn't say that. I-I didn't.

Your pie was the best thing that happened tonight, hands down.
In fairness, the bar was very low.
You gonna tell me what this is about,
or are you gonna make me drag it out of you?
The resentment.
I've been sensing it on you for a while now and...
I can smell it on you like cheap cologne.
Yeah, well, my cologne is cheap, so maybe it's just that.
I do not want to end up like Hunt and Altman.
Before you went to work, we were doing so well.
Wait-- I know you're not saying
you resent me going back to work.
I do.
I don't know what I expected,
but it wasn't that.
Look, I am aware that I sound like an ass.
I'm working on it.
And I hate myself for even saying it,
but I-I've never done this before, Miranda.
I've never parented a little girl.
A-And Pru's lost so much in her life.
I just-- I worry, you know,
that-- that I'm not doing it right.
And I-- I miss you.
Okay, I know starting up this clinic
has been a big undertaking,
but I am prioritizing our family--
I mean, I'm limiting my hours in the OR,
I'm barely taking weekend calls,
I'm-- I'm delegating to Wilson--
But now you're saying that isn't enough?
Can we please just go home now?
God, yes.
This is sad.
I can fix it.

Dr. Harlene Cohen to Radiology.
Brought you these.
It's kinda a weird breakfast, but, uh...
Here.
Thank you.
For, um...
everything.
Kwan?
Kwan.
I explicitly took you off of Natalia's case.
Okay, look.
You want me to pretend that
medical bills don't exist?
That the system doesn't force people
to choose between bankruptcy and death?
Dr. Kwan, that--If my mom could've divorced me,
she would've done it in a heartbeat,
but I opened up credit cards to pay for her care,
and every time I get a bill,
it feels like a noose around my neck.
Forgive me for not wanting
to put someone else through that.
Dr. Kwan, I...
Um...
How'd it go last night?
Is everything okay?
Nothing is okay. Everyone is in pain.
Maggie, what's going on?
When you and Catherine were
going through your rough patch
where you couldn't, um,
speak to each other without fighting,
how did you know that it was just a rough patch
and it wasn't something more...
malignant?
Well, I think with-- with Catherine, uh,
we always still had the love underneath it all.
When that dries up,
then it's time to reevaluate.
Surgical intervention doesn't always work.
Look, Maggie, whatever's going on,
you and Winston have so much love between you
that whatever it is, you'll work through it.
I know you will.
Thank you. Thank you.

Nope, not joking.

It was fine. It was just a long night.
Yeah.
I'm gonna slip out the back

He just... held a laboring mom's hand for hours
and took care of her like it was his job,
all while in the midst of a major personal crisis.
He's perfect.
How do you just let someone like that go?
I've also had a long night.
He wasn't perfect for me.
But maybe he's perfect for you?

I didn't wake you, did I?
No, I was just... resting my eyes.
Yeah.
I just had the longest, strangest, saddest night

Wow! Congratulations.
