(Addison) I think I'm done with therapy.
I mean, I am... So, so...
So grateful,
you know, but I have...
Everything I've ever wanted.
I mean, isn't that the point of therapy,
to make your life into what you want it to be?
I have everything. I have it all.

(People speaking indistinctly)
Hi.
(Door closes) Hi.
I don't want to bother you.
Oh, you're not bothering...
Are you okay?
I'm having a baby with no brain.
I'm fine. I'm great.
I'm... horrible.
I'm devastated... But okay.
We talked about this.
It's traumatic.
And so it's perfectly natural,
in the weeks prior to your due date,
to... develop feelings of-- of fear and despair...
- No. - And--
I'm-- I'm having the baby right now.
I don't need to be here yet.
I'm barely dilated.
I could wait it out at home--
Actually, you, uh, you do need to be here.
You paged them?
Yep.
And what did they say?
I'm going to go talk to them as soon as I leave you.
Okay.
No drugs.
No epidural, no pain meds, no sedatives.
- I mean it. - Okay.
I want you to move me off the OB floor
the minute I'm done delivering.
I-I don't want to be on this floor.
Okay.
And wrap his head right away.
I don't want to see it.
Okay.
Just take him away... Before I can see him.
I-I don't want to hear him cry.
Just-- Before he cries.
Amelia...
Right.
A baby without a frontal lobe can't cry.
I saw one once
when I was an intern.
They make this kind of squeaking noise.
Brainless babies squeak.
I mean, it's the only way you can describe
the noise they make, but...
I mean, you'd think that it would be awful,
but actually, it's kinda...
Life will out, you know?
I know.
Anyway...
Take him away before he squeaks.
(Sheldon) So Pete's just gonna admit
that he took his patient off the ventilator?
Yep, he's convinced he did the right thing.
It's gonna make it hard for his lawyer.
What's going on? Is something wrong with Pete?
No. Amelia's in labor.
Oh, God.
Okay, I-I'm gonna go see--
Jake says we should all stay here.
Well, he might need a consult.
Amelia made it clear that she doesn't want you in there, so--
- Really, Sam? - Hey, hey.
- Is she in labor? - Yeah.
Where's Coop?
(Sighs) He's with Violet.
Woman nearly broke down our door at the crack of dawn,
- wanting to scream about Pete. - How is she?
How do you think she is?
Terrified, blaming everyone but Pete.
Jake...
Just give me a minute. (Clears throat)
Okay, first I want to say, that as Amelia's doctor,
no one goes near her
unless you're sure you can be supportive.
Why wouldn't we be supportive?
Jake, what are you talking about?
Amelia wants to donate her baby's organs.
How long have you known about this?
- Since she chose me as her OB. - That's murder.
Sam, please, do not get religious on me here.
This has nothing to do with religion.
The American Academy of Pediatrics states...
I know what it states.
That a declaration of brain death has to be made
before procuring the organs.
And since there's no brain in a child that's anencephalic--
And still medical ethicists are split
on whether it's acceptable to retrieve organs from them.
Why not just wait till the baby dies?
(Addison) Because by then, it'll be too late.
The organs will deteriorate,
and they will no longer be viable for transplant.
I need to go consult our lawyer.
Charlotte, Charlotte...
We're talking about Amelia here.
I know it's Amelia,
which is why I'm not revoking your privileges
and throwing you out of here.
This is a person I love.
I need to consult the lawyers that represent this hospital
to see what they think,
because I think this is killing a baby.
(Buzzer sounds)
(Indistinct conversations)
(Woman) Calling the case of Peter Wilder.
Counselors.
(Man) The state contends that Dr. Wilder showed
reckless disregard both for the life of his patient
and for the laws of this state when he intentionally--
He pulled a Kevorkian?
- My client followed the instructions-- - A Kevorkian? Are you serious?
- Pete. - Dr. Wilder.
- My patient did not want to be kept alive by life support. - Stop talking.
Your client killed a guy. He doesn't look too sorry.
- Your honor, if you-- - I'm not sorry.
- Oh, Pete. - I am not sorry.
Good. You made this easy. Bail is denied.
(Gallery murmuring indistinctly)
(Knock on door)
(People speaking indistinctly)
You have something to say
or are you just gonna watch me?
'Cause this gown is backless,
so when I turn around to go that way,
you're gonna get a really great view of my maternity panties.
That was quite a bombshell Jake dropped on us today
about you donating the baby's organs.
I'm like that...
All bombshell-y.
I was wondering how you came to your decision.
To my decision?
My decision to donate the organs
of my brainless baby?
(Gasps)
Amelia.
(Exhales)
(Panting) I'm... having...
A contraction.
Is there...
Can I do anything?
It hurts.
(Groans)
Don't touch me.
(Pants and sniffles)
(Panting)
Are you all right?
I'm fine.
Contractions come and go.
That's what happens when you're having a baby,
even a unicorn baby.
A unicorn baby?
Well, that's an interesting choice of words.
Sheldon, I'm doing a thing here.
What do you want?
Sometimes people think they can circumvent the grieving process
by focusing on an external goal.
And... while concentrating
on the benefits of organ donation
is a perfectly valid short-term coping mechanism,
it can't replace the work you need to do
to deal with your own profound loss.
The work I need to do?
The...
Are you freakin' kidding me?
Look at me.
This is supposed to be the happiest day of my life.
I'm having a baby. I'm in labor.
Yay. I am dealing with my loss, Sheldon.
I am swimming in it.
I just wanted to make sure you thought this through.
I... I just want to help you--
No, you just don't want to feel guilty.
Get out. Please.
How do you even declare brain death
in an anencephalic child?
Lack of reflexes, pupillary responses.
No. Those criteria don't apply here.
They indicate an absence of brain stem activity.
Amelia's baby has a rudimentary brain stem.
It'll never gain consciousness.
(Jake) Exactly.
There is zero chance it will ever have
any kind of meaningful life.
Will you stop saying "it"? (Sighs)
Because the baby will be alive.
It's not a life I'd want, but it's not a life I'd kill.
Stop saying "it." Say "he."
Say "him."
You have to kill him to recover the organs.
Look, Sam, I need your help
to harvest the heart and the lungs.
Amelia needs your help.
(Door closes)
I want to help, and I-I don't know how.
Should I call Derek?
No, she expressly asked me not to call her family.
She wants to do this on her own.
Well, I have to do something. I can't just--
- I-I have to do something. - You want to help?
Sam is the best cardio guy at St. Ambrose.
Get him to harvest the heart and lungs.
(Indistinct conversations)
(Sighs) Do you need anything?
No.
I made my cell mate my bitch, so I'm good. (Chuckles)
(Indistinct conversations continue)
Little prison humor. Sorry.
Roberta's gonna appeal the judge's decision.
She says you should get bail.
She said that the judge was prejudiced.
That judge was an ass.
Hey, Pete, I'm freaking out here, okay?
- I'm freaking out. I-- - Okay, okay.
Hey.
I love you.
(Buzzer sounds)
(Indistinct conversations continue)
How's Lucas?
He's good. He misses you.
I told him that you were out of town for a while.
We shouldn't lie.
We shouldn't lie?
What should I tell him, Pete?
Really, what?
Daddy's in jail because that's where they put...
(Whispers) Accused murderers?
I did the right thing.
(Normal voice) You did the right thing by your patient.
You did not do the right thing by our family.
You did not do the right thing by our son.
You need to cooperate.
I will not say that I'm sorry.
Pete, I get that you're not sorry.
I don't need you to be sorry. I need you to not be in prison.
So please say whatever you have to say.
Cooperate.
(Addison) Bail was denied entirely?
- Yeah, entirely. - But they're appealing that, right? They can appeal that.
- They are. - Because it seems a little extreme.
Well, he did kill someone.
S-someone who wasn't going to recover,
someone who's partner had asked him to--
Pete knew the law. He broke the law.
And he put himself
and the hospital at risk when he did it.
This is not helpful. Can we not--
Can we just not... debate it for once?
This is a mistake.
Amelia's in a very bad place.
Did you just see her?
I couldn't stay away even though it's just possible
- that she hates me enough to kill me. - Yeah, if I don't do it first.
I told you not to go see her if you couldn't be supportive.
- I was supporting her. (Charlotte) - The argument is pointless.
The hospital still hasn't signed off on the organ procurement.
And they shouldn't.
(Cooper) Do you know how many babies die ever year
- waiting for organ transplants? (Jake) - Charlotte,
you have to fight here.
Who thinks this is a good idea?
Who's against?
We know how Sam feels.
We're split right down the middle.
Aren't we a microcosm of the medical community?
I hate my job.
Sam, this organ procurement has to be flawless.
Every surgery has to be flawless.
I know. It's just...
It's her baby's heart.
It's a baby's heart, and when we get one...
Look, if it were me,
there's no one I'd rather have holding the scalpel than you.
- Well, it's a good thing it isn't you, then, isn't it? - Oh, Sam.
Look, Amelia's situation is tragic.
But just because her baby's going to die
doesn't mean that it's okay for me to...
Rush the process.
Sam, I know I'm asking you to do the hard thing here,
but when people we love need us,
sometimes we have to compromise.
Today's lecture's on compromise?
Because I remember the last one,
you said, uh, if I wasn't all in,
then I had to just walk away.
So which one is it, Addison?
I know you saw me and Jake,
and I probably owe you an explanation--
No, no, you don't have to explain
why you gave an ultimatum,
and when I couldn't answer for five seconds,
you immediately moved on to someone else.
That definitely, definitely doesn't demand an explanation.
Your inability to answer, Sam,
that was my answer.
Look, I don't want to talk--
I will recommend
several excellent cardiac surgeons to Jake.
But beyond that, I can't be a part of this.
I can't.

What?
There are nine cardiothoracic surgeons in the area
certified to do this kind of pediatric procedure.
I've been rejected by eight of them.
Sam makes nine.
I've been calling surgeons all day long.
Nobody wants to do this because they're cowards
or they're... I don't want to do this.
But I said that I would.
I told her I would do this for her.
Damn it. She's in there

Okay, because, um--
You're gonna say it's because, technically,
a child with a working brain stem
can't be declared brain dead
even though he'll never walk or talk
or move or eat,
even though he's missing the parts of his brain
that he needs to have a life.
Not just be alive, but have a life...
To love,

You're gonna talk to me about medicine and technicalities

But the thing is, that's not why you won't do the harvest.
Well, until we know, uh, with...
Medical certainty,
you know, until the law--
It's because it's unimaginable.
What I'm asking you to do is unimaginable.
It's horrible. It's excruciating.
I'm asking you to help dismantle my baby for parts.

that can hold that and feel okay.
But I'm asking.
I'm asking you.
I'm his mother.
And I'm asking you to do this.
And you want to know why?
It's because I did a little research, Sam.
(Sighs) Science.
In Chicago, there's this baby girl, 6 weeks old,
with pulmonary hypertension who needs new lungs.
Outside Detroit there is a 10-day-old boy
who was born blind, but could see if he had new corneas.
I read this blog about
this 14-month-old kid named Gideon in San Diego
who's been on a heart-lung machine for months
because he needs one tiny valve in his heart.
There's burned babies who need skin.
There's infants who need livers,
and toddlers who need kidneys,
and there's even this one 4-month-old girl named Lulu
who needs a multiple-organ transplant.
My baby...
Could save all of those babies.
He could be responsible for kids leaving the hospital
and going home and growing up
and falling in love and having sex
and arguing with their boyfriends
and making mistakes and living
and maybe not ruining their lives with drugs.
What I'm asking you to do
is unimaginable.
But it's also everything
those other mothers could ever imagine.
I'm his mom.
And I'm asking you to do this.
If I can get there, why can't you?
(Footsteps approach)
I mean, does it occur to you
that somebody else might want some of those?
No. I mean, the hand to the mouth to the box, it's...
Any news-- Babies, bail?

after Amelia told me she was pregnant.
It was my way of being supportive.
Not that she wants my support anymore.
Mm.
It was oxy.

This baby, its, uh... (Sniffles)
Its organs are gonna go all over the country
and do great things.
It's-- it's magical. It's...
It's her unicorn baby.

So you, um...
You maybe wanna...
You wanna get something to eat?
I mean... If you're hungry.
Yeah, I am.
Um...
I have to get back
to see Henry and relieve my nanny.
Yeah, I have some stuff I can take care of here, too,
but, um...
I can, uh, I can meet at your place.
Say an hour and a half, bring Chinese?
Yeah, I'd like that.
(Door opens)
(Babies crying)
Did your dad tell you what was going on?
He said a baby was being born mostly dead.
So they're donating his organs so other babies can live.
That's right.
That baby over there, she was born so premature,
her lungs never had a chance to form properly.
And because of science, because of medicine,
she got some new lungs,
and now she's gonna live a whole life.
She shoulda been dead.
If she was born ten years ago, she would've been dead.
(People speaking indistinctly)
And now she's alive.
(Sighs) Miracle.
You think if my mom got sick ten years from now,
she'd still be alive?
I don't know.
But I think that idea's what might make you
an incredible doctor one day.
(Chuckles) You think I could be a doctor?
I know you could.
(Chuckles)
(Crying continues)
I'm not good with nature or soccer
the way your mama was.
But you're a good doctor.
I am.
Is this weird that I took you to see the sick babies?
No, it's not weird.
I don't know what to call you.
I already have a mom.
And I don't want to take your mama's place, Mason.
But I am happy to stand in for her
any time you want to let me.
How about mama?
What's that?
I already have a mom,
but how about I call you mama,
like you call your mom?
(Voice breaking) That sounds, uh...
Yeah.
Okay.
All right.

Hey.

I sent her home.
Why?
Because after the kind of day that I had--
That we've had...
(Henry babbles) Hi, baby.
You want to see your kid.
Well, he's not your kid, remember?
Ooh, boy. You are gonna make this
as difficult as possible, aren't you?
You know what? We're both exhausted, Sam.
It's been a really long day,
and I don't have the energy to fight.
- Well, I do. - Sam--
All right, I have the energy to fight for you.
I'm-- I'm fighting for you right now.
What?
When you asked me if-- if I was all in,
I-I should've said yes,
so I'm-- I'm saying yes now.
- Well, it's too late. - I love you.
You know, I just told you, it's too late.
- I'm in love with you. It's not too late. - No--
It's never too late.
When you had the chance, you didn't want me,
you didn't want to have a family,
but then you see me with Jake, and then--
I don't care about Jake.
You've been with him, what, two minutes?
Look, you were right.
I... I didn't want a baby.
And I don't. I don't want a baby.
I want this baby. (Sighs)
I want Henry.
And... I want you
and me and Henry to be a family.
I was afraid of that before. I just--
I couldn't imagine being a new father
and having a whole new family.
It was unimaginable, but...

Wait. Wait a minute.
