No. You don't have to do that.
Well, if I can't pull strings for my friends, then...
Hon, take the upgrade.
How do you all know each other?
Uh, Owen rebuilt my hand.
He gave me a new leg and saved my hip.
Not my spleen, though.
He threw that out.
Yeah. We, uh, spent time together at the VA hospital.
Uh, and each other's weddings.
How is Amelia?
We keep missing her whenever we're here.
Um, she's, uh... She's good.
Yeah? You guys knocked up yet?
Leo, you cannot just ask people if they're knocked up.
What? I mean, he used to ask us all the time.
Because we would tell him we were trying all the time until we finally did it.
How's the baby doing?
Dr. Robbins placed a shunt last week to help with the baby's heart.
Yeah, so she's gonna make sure it's all working... fingers crossed.
Woman: Chief Ortho resident to the E.R.

I placed a pericardio-amniotic shunt last week.
All right. So, as long as the tumor doesn't grow too fast, we can push surgery till the baby's bigger...
I mean, ideally until after she's born.
Yeah, fingers crossed.
It wasn't a carpool.
Sorry?

If Maggie's fine, you get to eat?
- Dinner with Riggs.
- Ohh.
You know, I was holding off because I didn't know if she'd be okay, but I think she's fine, so I think it's fine if I go to dinner.
Mm. With Riggs.
When did you become a grumpy old man who doesn't like people?
I like people.
I don't like Riggs.
If you want to go to dinner with the guy, go to dinner.

So, Dr. Hunt told you what?
I was talking to Dr. Robbins, and I raised a concern.
We are going to stick with the original plan... have Dr. Riggs do the surgery.
I'm sure that you're a great doctor, but this is just too big of a deal.
I agree.
It is a very big deal.
I know that Dr. Hunt is your friend...
- Owen is like family.
- Even better.
So as your family, Dr. Hunt is looking out for you.
But you should know that his concerns have nothing to do with my surgical skill, do they?
No, of course not.
He's worried about me because my mom died recently, and he is worried that I won't be able to work through my personal pain to get the job done.
But I can, or I wouldn't be here.
Owen, is... is that what it is?
I'm just... concerned.
Well, so am I.
This is scary as hell, which is why I don't need a doctor that has a happy and perfect home life.
I just need her to be the best.
That's me.
That's why I am the chief of my department.
And, frankly, my part of the surgery is a walk in the park.
Your baby's mass is easily extractable.
The truly risky part of this surgery is when Dr. Robbins has to open you up to get to your baby.

And defied all your expectations.
Come on. Nobody thought you couldn't do it.
You just said I couldn't all day.
Maggie, I think people were just surprised, you know, that you were doing so well.
I'm not doing well.
♪
I'm doing my job.
I... I feel awful.
But... I'm... I am doing my job while everyone is staring and telling me that I am not up for it.
I am doing my job because that is what we all do, right?
[Breathes sharply]
Right?
Right.
When someone comes to us for help, we find a way, we figure it out... how to help them.
We don't give up.
We don't tell them that there's nothing left to do.
Maggie, look...
So, why couldn't you do your job?
My mother came to you for help, and you said that you would help her.
That is the job.
S-So why the hell couldn't you do it?

[Echoing] Cross?
[Normal voice] Cross. Hey.
Hey!
- Hey, Cross.
- Hey.
Am I dead?
[Scoffs] If you were dead, I wouldn't be visiting.
Hey, have you left the country recently?
Uh... just a Baja cruise with my mom.
Hmm.
Oh, and India for a month volunteering.
Nobody noticed I was gone?
You got TB, pal.
TB?
Wow.
Wait. You fixed me, right?
- Well, Dr. Kepner did.
- Oh.
Listen, I just wanted to apologize for giving you a hard time earlier and for sticking you in a duck gown.
You're really sexy... [chuckles]
...and pretty and smart.
W-W-Wait... Don't tell Dr. Wilson I said that.
[Whispering] She and I have a little thing.
Goodbye, Cross.
Enjoy your isolation room, buddy.
Thanks, buddy.
I just don't understand that stubborn, stubborn man.
Everyone's getting along, and he just wants to bicker.
It's like he enjoys pressing my buttons.
It's like he likes to fight.
Hmm.
Hu... What? Do you think he's right?
Uh, no.
Good.
But have you considered that he might just be lonely?
No. I had not.
You do me.
♪
So, we got to wait another eight weeks and then inject ourselves again just to see if Cross gave us TB?
I mean, are you sure we don't just hit ourselves with a dose of rifampin and get ahead of it?
Ah, it doesn't work that way, I'm afraid.
And you know this.
You're a doctor... ish.
Ohh. Thank you.
That's a good catch today, Edwards.
You know, undiagnosed, Cross' TB would have only gotten worse with time.
Yeah, I didn't catch it. Cross did.
Well, how is that?
I thought it was internitis.
I made up my mind about it before I even took his temperature.
Well, it was still a good outcome.
Yeah, despite me.
I was an obstruction to his care today.
Cross advocated for himself, and I just dismissed it just like those doctors used to do to me when I was a little kid.
How did I get like this?
Edwards, there isn't a doctor in this hospital who hasn't found themselves making the same mistake.
You were wrong today, but you were able to admit it, and you'll learn from it.
And, you know, it's an admirable quality.
Not everyone can do that.
