Previously on Royal Pains.

This is a pager watch.

- When it beeps you would proceed directly here.
- I'm in.

Excellent work.
I knew you had it in you.

Hank, meet my translator, Christina Dumond,

- pleased to meet you.
- And you.

I'd like to offer my car and driver

for you to have
an evening and a meal out

with Christina.

Well, that's very generous.

Just look at her.
She's, like, perfect.

Sexy curves, great body.

- Should I be jealous?
- Mm-hmm.

Very. Rowwr!

And her, she's the one
I'm taking home,

along with her 454 horses.
Okay, babe,

I know you've always dreamed
of owning a Ferrari,

but it's a very expensive
raffle ticket.

You think you can afford
that gamble?

No, I can't,
but my company can.

Come on.

Why does a medical practice
need a Ferrari?

To cut down on response time.

That is the only reason
I'm doing it... for the patients.

- The only reason?
- Okay, maybe also because

it's my destiny
to own a Ferrari.

I think it's so cute

you believe you're gonna win
the charity raffle.

Count me in.

- Really?
- Yeah.

But let's drum up a lot
of business at this rally,

just to cover our bases.

I really like it
when you cr*ck the fiscal whip,

as it were...
It's sexy.

Speaking of sexy.

So... First of all,
she's red.

That's extra sexiness points
off the bat.

Exposed engine.
And the interior...

this one has
a "do not touch" sign.

I'm not gonna touch it.
I just want to sense it

and smell it
and take in its aura.

Ah, leather.

Interesting. The cow is...

Don't touch it.
You're gonna make it worse.

Okay, that has my name on it.

Those are my business cards.

All right...
Oh, my God.

Um, I... I...
Hi.

I'm Sam chard.

I see you brought me
some gelato.

And it goes so nicely
with my leather seats.

- I am so... I'm so sorry.
- He is so sorry.

It's okay.
It's just a car.

"It's just a car."
Wow...

I'm a little offended right now

that you're not cursing at me

in Italian.

And I am gonna be right back

to rescue your Italian leather.

Thank you, babe.

- Let's see the damage. Wow.
- Yeah, it got right in there.

- Oh, is this yours?
- Oh, God.

- This is... Oh.
- Yeah.

- Are you a doctor?
- No, no, I'm not.

I can have one here faster
than this baby can do 0 to 60.

Why, is someone sick?

Yeah. Me.

Jeremiah,
is there something that I...

would you take
my first patient?

Why don't you want to work
with Mrs. small?

Uh, she's a...
she's a geographical outlier

on the schedule
Paige arranged for me.

She's 4.6 Miles east
of Mr. adler, and, uh...

Jeremiah...

Are you afraid of handling
emotional women?

It hasn't been within
the scope of my practice.

I don't have the tools
to treat postpartum depression.

Severe mood swings...

Spells of anger towards others,
inability to be comforted.

Yes, I know the symptoms.

Jeremiah, you're not working
in a laboratory any more.

You have to evolve to become
a part of this practice.

Look, when I first started
at Hankmed,

I struggled
with self-destructive patients.

People who took foolish risks
with their own health

and expected me
to bail them out.

But I began to evolve.
And so can you.

Maybe I can do this.

If you come with me.

So how can I help you, Sam?

Doctor/patient confidentiality
applies to everything

I tell you, right?

Yeah, unless you plan
to commit a crime.

On the contrary.

I am not a rich socialite.

I don't own a Ferrari.
This isn't even my dress.

It's my disguise.

You're working undercover?

D.E.A.

Here in the Hamptons?

I didn't say it was a bad gig.

But the hair extensions,

the spanx,
the six-inch heels...

Yes, being rich
is very hard work.

Do you have any idea
how many squat thrusts it takes

to burn off six ounces
of caviar?

Right. Okay.

You know, the fact
that you don't believe me

is kind of a compliment.

I didn't say
I don't believe you,

it's just that
you don't look exactly...

Henry Lawson, born August 23rd.

I won't mention the year because
that just wouldn't be classy.

Passaic high,
Northwestern university,

mt. Sinai school
of medicine.

Your brother's fiancee's father
is running for senate.

Oh, and unlike your father,
you've never been arrested.

Except for that time
in Atlantic city.

I was 20 years old, and it was
a few hands of Blackjack.

I know.

Can we just talk about you?

Great. Um...

Okay, the first symptoms started
a couple weeks ago...

headaches, trouble sleeping,
fatigue.

My old partner started
the same way.

And so did a lot of other agents
who worked meth cases

back in the '90s.

"Meth toxicity"
is what they called it.

Most of them eventually
had to leave the agency,

and a lot of 'em d*ed,
including my partner.

And you're wondering
if your symptoms are consistent

with toxicity as well.

I'm done wondering, Hank.
I just...

I need to know how bad it is.

♪ My independence went away

♪ I didn't listen
when it said ♪

♪ Rely on yourself

♪ trusting someone else

♪ is a path
for the silent ghost ♪

do you know how many units
the last one sold?

Uh-huh, that's right,
half a million...

In the first week.

I wanted a 30% bump,

and this offer is
practically nothing,

other than an insult.

Call me back when you're
at least in the ballpark.

- Oh!
- We'll be back in a moment.

I must say, Mrs. small,
you don't seem to be manifesting

many symptoms
of postpartum depression.

Oh, I'm not suffering
from postpartum depression.

My husband is.

Making sure you'll always

be there for him,
even when you aren't.

He uses these rallies
as his front.

I was in Newport beach
last week,

I'm here now, and I'll be
wherever he goes next.

I thought that these days
you guys wear

all kinds of protective gear.

You know, especially
when busting meth labs.

Well, we do when we know
we're busting one.

But about a year ago
I was chasing a suspect

into a garage when suddenly

everything when orange
and white.

It sounded like a train
crashing into,

well, a meth lab.

Wow, that must have
been scary.

I was down ten minutes
breathing in toxic fumes

before they could get me out.

A meth lab expl*si*n...

I mean, it could have been
a lot worse.

You're lucky.
I don't believe in luck.

I believe in being prepared.

Which is why I need to know
how bad this is.

If I can't continue this case,
I need to find a replacement.

Well, don't turn in
your manolos just yet.

Your X-ray looks clean,

and the symptoms
you're experiencing

can have many causes.

Let's wait and see
what the blood work shows,

and take it from there.

Okay.





All normal.

See? I told you guys
I'm fine.

"Fine" is not
a medical term, JJ.

The truth is, men undergo
hormonal changes too.

One in ten new fathers

experiences
postpartum depression,

even though most of them
never even know it.

So how do you guys know
it's one in every ten?

That's a valid
scientific challenge.

Sorry, but it is.

Yes. Let's not dwell
on the numbers.

Jill, we're more interested
in you.

So how is your diet?

Diet's fine.
I eat like a champ,

believe you me.

- Any changes at work?
- No, not really.

How about serious injuries?

No serious injuries.

Okay, honestly, you guys,
everything is great.

I may be a little
emotional lately,

but it's because
of triple-j.

I'm sorry, triple-j?

That's what I call my son,
JJ junior.

And I love him more
than anything, just like I love

my beautiful
but overzealous wife.

I mean, these things should
make you emotional, right?

Can you hold that for me?
Yes, yes, yes.

Here, honey, take the baby.

I got him.

Come here.
Moo moo moo moo.

Shh, it's okay.
Come on.

- Thank you, honey.
- Mm-hmm.

She wishes I'd act
a little more macho.

She's afraid of me coming off
like a stie,

thinks it's bad
for appearances.

But, anyways, listen.

Thank you for coming
to check on me, but I'm fine.

I'm healthy.
You look healthy to me.

Uh, clinically speaking.

If there is anything else
that we can do,

even if it is just to talk...

Please don't hesitate to call.

Okay. All right.

You don't think
anything's wrong?

Really?

I wake up to tears every night,

and they're not coming
from the baby.

At the moment, there isn't
much else we can do.

Can't you give him something?

Not if he says
he doesn't need it.

Look, if he doesn't
stop weeping,

I'm gonna stick my head
in that blender

just so I don't have
to hear it.

Try these first.

Ear plugs.
Huh.

See?
You do have the right tools.

Come over tonight.
I'll make dinner.

I have this Russian cookbook
that's been useless to me

without a translator.

Come over to your guesthouse
at shadow pond.

Unfortunately,
that's the only guesthouse

I have at the moment.

How about room service instead?

In your hotel?

Unfortunately, I can't get them

to bring food to me
anywhere else.

This is a nice car.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So Sam...
What's her deal?

Who is she?
What does she do?

I don't think
she's retainer material.

Are you kidding?
She drives a Ferrari.

The ring on her finger
was the size of a...

Lot of money.

Yeah, I know, but...

Ah, yes. Well...

Yes. Hi.

Evan. R. Lawson,
I'm the cfo of Hankmed.

And Hank's only brother,
actually.

- Christina.
- Christina.

Christina.
Hank's never mentioned you.

Don't take that personally,
though,

because Hank doesn't
tell me anything.

He does play it
close to the vest.

Don't I, though?

Yeah, sometimes a little
too close for my taste.

So how did you guys meet?

Wewe were... it was a...

we have a mutual acquaintance.

That's it.
We have a mutual acquaintance.

Oh, it's a mutual acquaintance.

Yeah, it is an acquaintance
that is, in fact... Mutual.

Oh, you, uh...
you like what you see?

I am such an Aston Martin girl.

Really?
That's... that's good news.

That's one less person
to compete against

in the Ferrari raffle, right?

Right.

I guess you are being summoned.

I am.

So she knows about

the house arrest
beeper-watch as well?

- Yeah.
- Wow, so...

When's the wedding, Henry?

And am I even invited to it?

I'm sorry, I gotta go.

Mwah!

Don't answer any
of his questions.

Bond, just don't talk.

Wha...

Boris.
I got your page.

Dmitry's local doctors
wanted to thank you

for the medical records
you sent.

It seems our Russian friend
is getting a new liver.

He got on the transplant list.

That seems premature.

He's not in liver failure.
List?

Dmitry's not the type
to queue up, wouldn't you say?

Much less wait for failure.

I'll give his internist a call.

I trust you had a pleasant
evening with Christina

before she left?

She's still in the Hamptons,

but I'm guessing
you already know that.

Hank, I don't foresee
Christina settling down

with a...
A country doctor.

You set me up with her.

Yeah, I wanted you two
to have a nice dinner.

Never imagined
that she'd stay past dessert.

At least not the Christina
I know.

Are we done here?

Hank, I'm sure
I needn't remind you,

if she asks any questions
about me...

believe me, your name
hasn't come up.

And I don't expect it to.

Just be careful, Hank.

I'll call Dmitry's doctor now.

Is Hank picking up
his schedule,

or does he need me
to email it to him?

Who knows what he's doing?
He sure doesn't tell me.

Very helpful.
I'll go call him.

Bye, guys.

Oh, no, wait.
You know what?

We should, uh...
we should talk for one second

about your share
of the raffle ticket.

Raffle ticket?

Yes, for the soon-to-be
Hankmed Ferrari.

You got the memo, right?
I thought it was a joke.

Did you also think
it was a joke?

I did not.
But in Divya's defense,

tone is notoriously hard
to decipher in emails.

Great. So you're in
for 20%?

Oh... No. Sorry.

Let me guess, you think
a Ferrari is

an impractical mode
of transportation.

No, it's just...

statistically,
you think the odds

don't justify the price.

No, it's not about
the probabilities.

Not to be so cfo, but,
Divya, this is for 40%.

Yes. I'm covering
Jeremiah.

Just please stop talking
to us about it.

Okay, great. Awesome.
Moving on.

So, Jeremiah, you are
following up with Mr. small?

Yes, he is.

But, uh, didn't he say
he was fine?

Well, men with depression
often deny their symptoms.

Also, I saw him drinking
a protein shake.

Perhaps a soy-based protein.

Well, evidence of soy
increasing estrogen

is anecdotal.

Yes, I know, but it isn't
always about the science.

Sometimes we need
to encourage dialogue

with our new patients
until they trust us.

There's something
going on with JJ,

and I am sure
that you are going

to get to the bottom of it.

Wait, his name is JJ?

Mr. small is JJ small?

The defending UFM champion?

The bad boy of MMA?

MMA?

The brutal combat sport
in which caged men fight

to near death.

"MMA" stands
for mixed martial arts.

Exactly.

I ordered it on-demand
by mistake.

I thought it was a special on
the medicare modernization act.

It must be a different
JJ small.

Our patient is quite
mild-mannered.

This your patient?

Oh, my God, why does he
have blood all over his face?

Oh, you should have seen
the other guy.

Guess how many copies
that sold.

Half a million
in the first week.

Yeah. Try half a million
in the first week.

JJ small, he's a superstar,
and he's a barbarian.

He's got a huge fight
this weekend at Nassau coliseum.

It's the first time
an MMA fight's ever been allowed

in New York.

Probably gonna be the last too

after he's done with Jason sol,

short, little bastard.

Evan. Evan!

Does he ever get hit
in the head when he is fighting?

Do you ever use your accent
when you're speaking?

He could have
a traumatic brain injury.

Which could be causing
his disproportionate

emotional displays.

We need to follow up
right away.

Does this mean he's not
gonna fight Jason sol?

I'm starting to get used
to this Hamptons lifestyle.

Leaving will be harder
than I expected.

Then take your time leaving.

I wish I could.

So do I.

This is starting to feel
like more than just some fun

over poker and wohdka.

So do you think Boris is going
to Istanbul in a few weeks?

His villa there
is pretty amazing.

Um, you really want
to talk about Boris right now?

Personally, I'd rather leave
our pasts behind us.

Hank, that was just
my not-so-subtle way

of asking
when I'll see you again.

I was hoping that Boris
might bring you along.

Right. Right.

I'm sure he'd want you there

with Dmitry facing
a liver transplant.

JJ, I'm so sorry
to interrupt you.

Really? Now?

- Please?
- One sec.

All right, let's go.

Okay, now I'm good.

You look great.

Thank you.

Okay, over my career I've had,
like, five broken ribs,

a punctured lung,
and three concussions.

Do you guys count
pinky fractures?

'Cause I don't count
the pinkies.

Why did you tell me
that you hadn't had

any serious injuries?

'Cause in my line of work,
"serious" is a relative term.

Hey, Schwann, man, I'm really
sorry about that, buddy.

- No problem, JJ.
- Okay?

I'll call and check up
on you later, all right?

Thanks, buddy.

Hey, could you do me a favor?

Can you put his nose on my tab?

JJ, I am concerned
about your history

of concussive head injuries.

Yeah, I appreciate that,
but it doesn't seem to be

causing me any problems.

It could be the reason
for your... for your crying jags.

Or maybe because I got a lot
going on right now.

I mean, I am trying to prep

for one of the biggest fights
of my career.

JJ...

You and I are not sparring.

You can let your guard down
with me.

It's Heather, okay?
She's concerned.

She worries so much about me.

Like this crying,
it starts out of the blue,

and I can't control it.

But that doesn't mean
I don't want to... I do.

I believe you.

Which is why we want
to do an mri of your head

so that we can check
for any damage.

I get it, but not now.
Tomorrow's the weigh-in.

So?

So? The weigh-in is
just as big as the fight itself.

I mean, it's where we face off

and try to psych
each other out.

It's the last and the biggest
media frenzy

of the whole event.

It's why I rented this house
in the Hamptons,

and why I gotta keep my head
in the game right now,

and not some machine.

You're also a new father.

If you've had
concussive injuries,

one more blow to your head
could cause

permanent brain damage.

This mri isn't just for you.

I mean, you have to stay safe
for... for triple-j.

Yeah, you're right.

Maybe I did have
one fight too many.

I coulda... I could have retired
three championships ago.

You think it's too late for me?

In my line of work,
"too late" is a relative term.

Hi.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Can't get enough of her.

If Magnum P.I. Were
still working today,

this is the car
he'd be driving.

Mm.

And she's next to this.

Now, this...

This is basically
the automotive equivalent

of a roided-out meathead
at the club

who's, like...

"Come on, it's money."

And she's the girl
he's trying to hit on,

who's, like,
"ha ha ha... No."

You really like Ferraris.

I do. Yeah.

When I was a kid,
my dad always said

we'd have one one day.

He was a bit of a dreamer.

I didn't know that
at the time, though.

So he kinda made me into
a bit of a dreamer too, I guess.

Well, maybe one day.

Seems like you have
a really solid business idea.

It's funny
you should mention that, Sam.

So I've been thinking,

if you were a Hankmed
retainer client...

oh, you know what, you can
just save your salesmanship

because I'm just in town
for the rally.

Totally get it.
But just so you know,

we also have
a Hankmed traveler's package,

which, uh...
which is designed specifically

for on-the-go vips,
such as yourself.

Actually, there's
a clause in here

specifically for... whoa!
Watch out.

Aah!

What can I do for you, Hank?

Did you tell Christina
about Dmitry's liver transplant?

I did not.

Then we need to talk.

You're lucky, Sam.

Other than a small laceration
and some pretty good bruising,

you'll be fine.

You sure you're all right,
Evan?

Me?
Yeah, I'm great.

I just can't believe that car
heard what I said about it

and tried to strike back.

But thank you again
for saving my head,

by the way.

You have lightning-fast
reflexes too.

Were you, like, a ninja
in a former life or something?

Okay, ev, don't you have
a raffle ticket to go buy?

Bought.
Now just pray for us.

I'm praying.
Don't you have anything else

you can go do?

I could go check out Ferrari's
new line of accessories.

I hear the sportswear
collection for men

just introduced
a very distinguished...

great.
Go do that, then.

Oh, you just want me to...

yeah, I kinda want you to...

- You coulda just said that.
- I did. Three times.

I think it was
actually twice, but whatever.

The door.

Sorry about that.
About him.

Oh, actually, it helps to have

a bit of unpredictability
around.

Keeps me on my toes.

Yeah, he's good at that.

I've lived on my toes
for 30 years.

I'm worried, Hank.

This isn't the first time
I've been clumsy lately.

Okay, let me take a look.

Here, hold your hands up.

Okay, now,
push against my hands.

Good.
Pull towards you.

Okay, good.

Grab my fingers.

Okay, now squeeze.

Okay.

Uh, can you feel that?

Yeah.

Do both sides feel
the same, or different?

Same.

Okay.

I'm not sure what's causing
your tremors, but...

this is just
what happened with John

right before it got really bad.

John your partner John?

He wasn't just my partner.

Oh.

People say not
to bring your work home,

but undercover work
isn't just a job.

It's a whole new identity.

Relationships get complicated,

and... I found the complicated
love of my life.

Anyway, John told me never
to give up on a case,

to see everything through
to the end.

Which is exactly
what I intend to do.

Sam, I've done some reading
on meth toxicity,

and nearly every case I saw
resulted from repeat exposure.

But one really bad exposure
could do it.

Yes, it could.

But all your blood panels
came back negative,

which is a good sign.

So I'd like to do
a full-body ct

and just keep looking
for other causes.

Okay.

I'll go with you
to the hospital...

As soon
as my replacement arrives.

Thanks.

Yeah.

JJ's findings look good.

No sign of post-concussive
syndrome.

I was hoping to find
an indisputable reason

that he shouldn't
fight any more.

I don't want him to be unwell,
just retired.

But isn't that judging
your patient's behavior?

I thought you had evolved
past that.

I said I began to evolve.

I'm still a work
in progress too.

Thank you for your honesty.

Especially since...
Here, look at this.

Is that a slight loss
of neurons in the hippocampus?

Huh.

He's not in any danger,

though his career may be.

He's at the weigh-in
right now.

We should probably
get over there fast,

before he suffers
another emotional episode.

It seems that you're feeling

more comfortable
with your patient already.

Yeah, I always feel
more comfortable with emotion

when it has a specific
neurological explanation.

Yeah.

So I've already
worked out a schedule.

Each of us will get the car
one day a week.

Paige already has Thursdays,
so I will take Fridays.

Which makes sense because,
obviously,

I'll be looking after it
on Saturdays and Sundays.

- Obviously.
- And, as the last to chip in,

you will most likely
get mondays,

which is also wash and wax day,
just so you know.

And speaking of,
you still owe me your 20%.

I don't know where
you got the idea

I was going in
on a Ferrari lotto with you.

I mean, it's absurd, Evan.

Okay, it's not absurd.
Excuse me.

What?

Did you just ignore miss
"I'm such an Aston Martin girl"?

She shouldn't take it
personally.

I'm ignoring you too.

So what's up
with you and her anyway?

Henry?

Oh, come on!

I used to tell you
about every girl I met,

like, the second I met her.

I used to tell you about girls
I fantasized about meeting.

Just give me the cliffsnotes.

Thecliffsnotesjust aren't
available on this one, okay?

Henry, come on,

talk to your little brother
about your girl troubles.

As the one with more
relationship experience

these days, I'd be happy
to shed some light

on the female condition
for you.

There's a reason Paige calls me

"the fiance whisperer."

Oh, what will it take
to shut you up?

- Your 20%.
- Done. You got it.

Nice doing business with you.

And his opponent,
hailing from utica, New York,

coming in with a record
of 22-1,

including ten knockouts
and five submissions,

ladies and gentlemen, JJ small!

JJ's official fight weight
is 182 pounds.

- Hey.
- Do you have JJ's mri results?

We do.
He's not post-concussive.

But we do know what it is,

and the good news
is we can treat it.

Well, I wish you got here
five minutes earlier

because he's about to have
a breakdown onstage.

This is a disaster.

If he sheds a tear,
he'll be a laughing stock.

His career will be ruined.

Look at him.
We have to do something.

We have to stop this.

Dr. Sacani,
what got into you?

Come again?

I said, "what got into you?"

The button said,
"push in case of emergency."

We had an ill patient
under duress.

Nicely done.

Talk about saved by the bell.

So where were we, medically?

JJ, your mri showed a loss
of neurons in the hippocampus,

an absence that can cause
dyscratic seizures.

It's a neurological disorder
called pseudobulbar affect,

or pba.

It occurs when the area
of the brain

that controls
the normal expression of emotion

is impaired.

Okay, so how did I get
this pba?

Oh, it's
an idiopathic phenomenon.

Which is medical
for no one really knows.

But there is no reason to think

that it is related
to your career.

It would have manifested itself

no matter what your line
of work.

What do we do about it?

This injection of lorazepam

will temporarily control
the emotion

and allow you to complete
the weigh-in with your opponent.

- Okay.
- Expose your right shoulder.

Yes. It's so good
to hear, you guys.

Thank you so much.
It's all clear, everybody.

They need my delicate
little flower back in there.

Little pinch.

How long does this take
to kick in?

I love you.

That'll work.

Ladies and gentlemen,
make your way over

to the Ferrari ff

for the announcement
of its new owner.

Excuse us.
Ticket holder. Thanks.

Hello, baby.

The winner of this year's
Hamptons speed rally

charity raffle is...

Please. Please.

- Evelyn Larson!
- Yes!

- I won!
- Yes! Yes!

- Evan!
- I can't believe I won it.

What?

He didn't say
"Evan R. Lawson."

He said "Evelyn Larson."

No, he did...
he... he...

who the...

congratulations, Evelyn Larson.

Evelyn Larson?

What the hell kind
of name is that?

There's always
next year's raffle.

And the charity wins
either way.

She's sitting in my car, Paige.

Hey, good for you.

Now you can drive yourself
to bingo night.

All right, cool.
At up to 193 Miles per hour.

All right.
Excuse me.

That's the spirit.

Excuse me. Excuse me.

Uh, Sam?
What are you doing?

This was getting in my way.

I told you I can't have
my sh**ting hand tied up.

- But it hasn't had time to he...
- Oh, my God.

No, no, no.
Sam?

Sam, what's going on?
I can't lose him now.

Your suspect?

What are you doing?
My job.

Sam, you're not thinking
clearly.

Hang on.

Hey, get back here!

Sam, stop the car.

If you chase him,

it'll blow your cover.

Whoa, whoa, Sam.
Sam, look out! Sam!

Hank, he's getting away
from me.

- Sam, slow down.
- No.

Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa...

Sam, listen to me.

You're not in your right mind
right now.

I gotta get this guy, Hank.

Hit the brakes!

Oh, my God, what just happened?

Wow, Sam.

I can't believe
I just did that.

Whoa...

I'm trained to be calm
and calculating, not impulsive.

What's happening to me, Hank?

I'm not sure,
but irrational behavior

is probably a symptom.

My replacement's
supposed to come tomorrow.

I think I better
move up the schedule.

Yeah, I think
that might be wise.

Thanks for being here, Hank.

You saved that waitress's life.

Even if it's too late
to save mine.

Actually, Sam...
I don't think it is.

What
what are you talking about?

The kf rings
around your irises.

What, the problem
is in my eyes?

Actually, it could be anywhere.

Your body's been poisoned,
but not by meth.

We have to get to the hospital
right now.

Uh, I'll drive.
Okay.

Ooh, yeah.

That man must have a stage three
complete ligament rupture

with joint dislocation
between his humerus and ulna.

No, it's just
a really nice armbar.

And he just escaped.
See?

So, um, tell me,
did JJ have a Ferrari?

No, what am I doing?
It's too hard.

Never mind. Ugh!

God... Evelyn Larson?

Her name
was Evelyn freakin' Larson!

Evan!

Maybe it's time
you give up the dream.

You know, at least for now.

I think it's bringing back
your childhood

in more ways than one.

Let's go.
Come on.

Okay, okay, I have seen enough

ankle locks
and guillotine chokes for today.

Maybe we should have lied
and told him

he had a head injury,
'cause clearly, someday he will.

Hemorrhagic stroke,
cerebral edema,

parkinsonism for sure.
Mmhmm.

Okay, so now he's got his back.

Okay, so...
so the guy at the back

is gonna try to jump on
like a monkey.

See, there you go.
Now he's gonna get his legs in.

Legs locked.

You know, his hooks are in.

Two hands on one.
He's trying to get out.

Rear naked choke.

Rear naked choke...
oh!

He slammed him
right on his head!

Now he's punching him
in the face.

- Divya.
- Yes?

I wanted to thank you, um,
for helping me, well, with JJ.

For helping me evolve.

It was my pleasure.

And my hat's off to you
for confronting that challenge.

You were terrific.

Would you like
to go eat now together?

Thanks to our patient,
I've lost my appetite.

Oh, actually, uh...
I'd be willing...

oh, my God!

Oh, my God, it's over.

Guys, come here!
JJ won.

So the ct and blood tests
both confirmed Wilson's disease.

It's a...
Genetic disorder

in which copper accumulates
in body tissue.

In my case, in the brain,
and can cause

fatigue, tremors,
irrational behavior...

all my symptoms.

Nice investigative work.

I guess you also know
what made it accumulate now?

It's been accumulating
my whole life,

and the symptoms
only started now

because the accumulation
had reached a crisis level.

Very impressive.

Chelation pills will help
remove the excess copper

that your body wasn't able
to metabolize,

and the zinc will ensure
that this never happens again.

So where did the copper
come from?

Copper's in a lot of normal,
everyday things we consume,

like oysters and chocolate.

Okay, my two favorite
food groups.

So this was addiction-related
in a way.

In a way, but not related
to meth exposure.

It would have manifested itself

no matter
what your line of work.

Speaking of my job,
when can I get back to it?

When's your suspect's
next rally?

Labor day weekend in Miami.

Good think you didn't blow
your cover, Sam.

Thanks to you.

So I guess I'll just have
to keep wondering

what your real name is?

- Hank...
- Yeah.

You saved my life.

I don't want you to live
in curiosity forever.

That just wouldn't be fair.

I'll call you when I retire.

Great.

I'll look forward to that call.

Okay.

Sorry I couldn't
meet you earlier.

I had an emergency.

I had
an unexpected situation too.

Boris fired me...

And said you'd be able
to explain why.

Oh, he did, did he?

Well, I assume it's because
you were talking to Dmitry

behind Boris's back.

Look, loyalty isn't something
Boris takes lightly.

When the summit ended,
so did my work for Boris.

Dmitry was happy
with my services

and hired me
for an upcoming trip.

Oh.

Did you explain that to Boris?

I did,
and Boris doesn't like it.

But Boris doesn't own me
the way he owns so many others.

Look, I was getting
mixed messages, Christina.

So you assumed the worst.

You treated me like a spy
and a liar

when all you had to do
was ask me.

You're right.

And I'm sorry.

I guess I'm still learning
this game

that seems to come
so naturally to the rest of you.

Maybe your brother
was right, Hank.

Maybe you do play your hand
too close to the vest,

especially when you have
no idea what you're holding.

I enjoyed the poker

and the vodka.

Sorry it wasn't more
than that after all.

Good-bye, Hank.

Hey. I got your text. Who's the patient?

What are they unhappy about?
There's no patient.

The address I texted you
was my own.

So... You live here?

Evan, I'm very wealthy.

Mazelhtov, man.

In my last job,
I had a mentor who was...

whom I found difficult to know.

And he d*ed.

And when he did,
he left me the royalties

from his medical patents...

And his house.

And one other thing.

This is why I didn't think
the raffle was

a logical investment.

If Hankmed needs a Ferrari,
they can use mine.

When would you like it?

Yeaaaah!

Oh, yeah. Evelyn Larson,
eat your heart out!

Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
Whoo!

It's all right,
it's all right...

I presume
Christina has spoken with you.

She did.

Do not blame yourself, Hank.

You did the right thing.

And what did I do, exactly?

You made me aware
of Christina's

conflict of interest,
which, as you know,

I cannot afford to risk
these days.

So I severed my working
relationship with her.

Purely a business decision.

Boris, you're usually
a much better liar.

I beg your pardon.

I've seen the way
you do business,

the way you play the game.
Hank...

If you wanted,
you would have somehow used

her conflict of interest
to your advantage.

- Careful, Hank.
- This was personal.

You've never gotten over
Christina.

You set me up with her
to prove to yourself

and to her...
That is enough!

I think we are done here, Hank.

I couldn't agree more.

If you don't feel well,
call me.

Other than that...

I'm out.

This isn't gonna work.
