Previously on The Resident...
My husband and I are adopting.
But the last thing I'm gonna let
happen is for you to pull the same vanishing act
-on my kid. -I'm not going anywhere.
-Just give me another chance. -KIT: I'm willing to watch
and see how you do,
but I see no place for you at Chastain.
MINA: It's Cain.
He's out for revenge.
And your chance for a visa.
You ruining Mina's life and career
will not heal you, Barrett.
I'm in Atlanta for my yearly Moyamoya checkup.
I have a surprise for you.
Is that little prince your son?
(indistinct announcement over P.A.)
IRVING: Uh, it seems you, Pravesh, could be a father.
There's no way that is my kid. Nadine would've told me.
Are you sure? She did say she had a surprise.
-That's the definition of a surprise. -Wait, wait!
Shh.
-When was the last time you spoke to her? -(sighs)
When she went back to her country, you know,
we spoke every few days.
Then a couple months went by,
and-and then she called and said she wanted to stop it
and that we should move on.
And I-- and-and she was right.
-Mm. -What?
Or she stopped because she was pregnant.
There's no way.
All right? It's been, what, something like...
ten or 11 months.
How old do you think that kid is?
I don't-- I didn't really get a good look at him,
but I'd say three or f-four months.
So, mathematically speaking,
it's within the realm of possibility.
(sighs)
Oh, my God, you know...
I-I can't have a kid. I-I'm a resident.
I have, uh, an apartment with-with one bedroom.
Nadine and this kid, they live across the world.
Well, you have to go find out.
No, I-I just need a minute.
Nadine texted earlier and said that she'd be
at Chastain tomorrow, okay? So there's time.
-(stammers) -Okay.
So you process tonight, and tomorrow you figure out
whether or not you're a father.
So now I've got Mina Okafor facing imminent deportation.
And who knows when Barrett Cain can start operating again,
or if I'll even allow him to?
I'm looking at losing two of Chastain's best surgeons.
Oh, stop with the ego.
I said "two of the best," not "the two best."
Look, I of all people appreciate the woes of the CEO,
but can we just put a pin in this?
You should've bought wine.
Look, Jake is a man who walks the OR by day
and dive music bars by night.

Acute cholecystitis.
Again, human please.
So, your gallbladder is showing early signs of infection.
And normally we would just take it out in the OR.
What about the baby?
That's what makes this complicated.
Any surgery, even routine, is a risk for the baby.

Okay, uh, if we treat with antibiotics,
we could potentially get her through this and then
go into surgery after she delivers in six weeks.

(chuckles) There's this matchmaker here
who wants to set me up with someone.
-Okay. I get it now. -(both chuckle)
You want to know what an arranged marriage looks like
in this day and age.
-Mm. -It's like any other marriage.
My father made the introduction but I didn't have to say yes.
And now I can't imagine a world where I didn't.
Because you fell in love.
I did.
And if your matchmaker is good at her job,
-you might, too. -(chuckles)
So what have you got to lose?
(sighs, laughs softly)
Yes. See? I knew you'd do it.
Okay, so, uh, what's the process like? What's the timeline?
Your to-do list: send me three hobbies, three favorite movies
-and an example of what makes you laugh. -What? Why?
Also submit shirt and jacket photos for my approval.
Those eyes? I'd go with warm colors.
My to-do list: look for women who don't mind
a slightly uptight type, contact your mother...
Wait, hold on. What does my mom have to do with this?
It's traditional for parents to be at the first meeting
of a prospective couple.
Don't worry, first you'll look at the photos
and résumés I send you.
My email address.
Contact me when you've done everything.
-I'm not uptight. -Please.
(Rose sighs)
You're still here.
I work here.
Or at least, I'm trying
to get back to a place where I can again.
Just wanted to stop by and check on you before I go.
I think you should sit down.
No, I'm-I'm fine.
I'm saying I'd like the company.
I guess I should thank you for today.
Thank me?
I didn't do anything, except scream
and need help and cause everyone a lot of extra work.
No, you reminded me that I should keep hope alive.
-I needed to hear that. -Yeah?
Well, I needed someone to pick me off the floor
and haul me into the ER, so... I guess we're even.
That's fair.
I'm only resting.
You stay in that chair.
I'm not going anywhere.

-Ready to go? -Yes, but first,
what do you think about lavender bisque or...
strawberry brûlée or...
-sea-foam margaritas? -Is this your dinner plan?
No, paint names.
Huh?
Turns out baby room colors are very therapeutic.
-It's weird, I know. -(chuckles)
Ridiculous names, okay colors.
Well, our baby girl needs a pretty nursery, right?
Yeah, she does.
You're still worried about Mina.
Yeah.
She is lucky to have you.
Well, I'm lucky to have her.
And you.
Let's go.

Is there anything we can do?
No.
The adoption agency confirmed it.
We can't have her.
Yeah, uh, Lucy...
I mean, Tina's baby will go to a traditional family.
I'm so sorry.
Our baby's still out there.
We just don't know who he or she is yet.
Uh, we did the right thing.
AUSTIN: Ah.
There she is, just in time to celebrate.
-Celebrate what? -Well,
I just hung up with my mother,
and, well, there's no surprise here,
but she and my dad absolutely love you.
So...
I'm thinking Italian. I'm thinking champagne.
I'm thinking a little fireplace action.
I spoke to my mother, too.
Finally. All right, great. What'd she say?
Um, she had been working in the OR for hours today.
There aren't enough Nigerian surgeons.
The system is crumbling and people are dying.
(exhales) Yeah.
-It's terrible. -Mm-hmm.
It's because good Nigerian surgeons leave.
They come to America.
("Heartbreak Anniversary" by Giveon playing)
Like me.
I am part of the problem.
I thought about sending supplies,
starting an outreach program, but none of it is enough.
My mother won't always be able to sustain
this many surgeries a day.
-She'll need help. -Yeah.
We'll find her help.
-We'll find mentors in the area. -No.
-No. No. -We will find her help.
-We can find her... -AJ, AJ, AJ, no.
This is the answer to my visa problem.
It's the answer to everything.
I don't want to fight anymore.
Leave on my own before I can be deported.
I'm going back to Nigeria.
