AVERY BRUCE BUN CAPTAIN_MASSEY COREY DELIA FIRST_OFFICER_MUNROE GRIFFIN HEATHER MAX OLIVIA PRINCIPAL_PHOTOGRAPHY ROSIE SAM TRISTAN WALLA HEATHER What do you say, Captain? Shall we show these kids a thing or two? CAPTAIN MASSEY I would be honored. MAX One day I got tapped on the shoulder and gently reminded that life is unbelievably fragile. Coronavirus. I thought I was dead. MAX You're pregnant. And you think it happened when the three of us... So you don't know which one of us... MAX I wanted to tell you I am all in for you. CAPTAIN MASSEY Why don't we get out of this cheap gin joint and go get a room? HEATHER I thought you'd never ask. FIRST OFFICER MUNROE Ooh, pair of aces. Looks like Lady Luck has a soft spot for a man with a limp. AVERY Oh. ROSIE Oh. Late, Maxy. Convenient timing. MAX Well, please allow me to sweeten the pot. What is the one thing that we never gamble with here on The Odyssey? COREY Real money? MAX No. MAX Health and safety. The latest COVID boosters have arrived. Who's first? Hmm? MAX Okay, I'll go first. FIRST OFFICER MUNROE I just got out the hospital. I'm not supposed to be taking anything. MAX Right. TRISTAN Max, I don't think I need another booster. I-I've had COVID four times. I'm basically a walking antibody at this point. COREY Yeah, every time I get a booster, I'm out for days. I can't afford it. AVERY Well, some mutations have fewer complications, but give it to me. I'll take it. AVERY I should be protected, obviously because I'm a nurse. MAX Yes. Thank you, nurse. AVERY Mm-hmm. MAX So let's just have a basic biology lesson, shall we? MAX Viruses mutate in every direction, and in the event that this strain turns out to be something particularly nasty, where do you think it's gonna pop up first? MAX Yes, right here, because we live on what amounts to basically a floating petri dish. MAX Need I remind you about the beginning of the pandemic, thousands of people quarantined on a cruise ship, some of whom actually died. Hmm? Ring a bell? MAX Okay, well, if you two wake up tomorrow morning and suddenly decide to be responsible citizens, you know where to find me. MAX I am so incredibly disappointed in all three of you. MAX You two are in my good books. MAX Lord. COREY Dad's mad, fun's over. COREY Let's call it. Big day tomorrow. WALLA MAX What in the world is that? TRISTAN Last gasp of a dying era. TRISTAN It's a sculptural tradition here on The Odyssey. MAX My God. Cougar's Week. Right. Or as we now lovingly refer to it as-- TRISTAN Mmm. TRISTAN Uh, Sophisticated Ladies Week. TRISTAN Ah, it's ridiculous. Cougar is a term of respect. Cougars are elegant, powerful creatures. MAX You are very passionate about this cruise. TRISTAN Mm-hmm. MAX Guess that tracks with your-- TRISTAN Mommy issues? You were about to say mommy issues, Doc. MAX I was about to say modus operandi, but, yes, the subtext was mommy issues. TRISTAN Don't judge things you don't understand, Doc. Men in their 20s and women in their 50s are deeply sexually compatible. There's something innately natural about the whole thing. Yin and the yang. TRISTAN Ah, in years past, I would have pulled two or three "coogs" a cruise, but Well, not this year. Everything's changed. It's not fatherly behavior. MAX Fatherhood and paternity are not the same thing, Tristan. And not everything in life is a dance-off. TRISTAN Yeah. TRISTAN Oh, speaking of dancing, the "coogs" love a whirl and a twirl. So get ready. You're fresh meat, baby. DELIA DELIA WALLA SAM Wow. Oh. This place. It's incredible. DELIA Well, we're due for a big celebration. SAM You're due. One year cancer-free. SAM / DELIA CAPTAIN MASSEY Have fun. HEATHER Surprise. Happy to see me? CAPTAIN MASSEY Yeah, wow. Happy and thrilled and shocked. And-- HEATHER The sea, the sun. I missed them. CAPTAIN MASSEY And? HEATHER Well, perhaps also a certain sailor I haven't seen since the last sexy port tryst. CAPTAIN MASSEY I think we'd better leave the public area here. HEATHER WALLA MAX How are you enjoying your time here on The Odyssey? OLIVIA This is my first cruise. I won it in a charity auction. OLIVIA But I think this concept of cougars running loose on a ship is fascinating. And hilarious. MAX We do not use the word cougars anymore, but younger men and older women, I think, is the concept you're trying to describe. OLIVIA Oh. OLIVIA I like millennials. I'm just not here for romance. I'm here for laughs and dry martinis and yoga. MAX OLIVIA Don't look so relieved. MAX I should be so lucky, but I don't want to give you the wrong idea. I am spoken for. MAX And the concept of this cruise is rather fraught. OLIVIA What isn't these days? MAX Wow, you know how to dance. Did you pick that up at a charity auction too? OLIVIA OLIVIA Well, you stay around long enough, you pick up some moves, you know? OLIVIA MAX You okay? OLIVIA Allergies. Nothing. OLIVIA Come on. Let's keep dancing. Maybe they'll play some Tina Turner. SAM How are you feeling? DELIA Oh, We have to break you of the habit of asking me that, Sam. SAM Sorry. It's just three years fighting hand-to-hand combat-- DELIA But you can't live in a permanent state of caregiver's PTSD trauma. Think of this trip as letting go of all the caregiving, dreaming about your own future rather than mine, okay? SAM Okay. SAM SAM Shall we dance? DELIA I would love to. CAPTAIN MASSEY Sh-She does that all the time. All the time. HEATHER CAPTAIN MASSEY The usual for me, Bruce. CAPTAIN MASSEY And as I recall, it's a gin martini with bitters and a twist. HEATHER Actually, now it's soda water with lime. I'm losing my taste for the hard stuff suddenly. BRUCE Soda lime and a Captain Manhattan coming up. CAPTAIN MASSEY You good, kid? HEATHER I don't know. Maybe a menopausal shift or something like that. CAPTAIN MASSEY No way. Menopausal shift? HEATHER CAPTAIN MASSEY I couldn't prove that by what went on in my quarters about an hour ago. CAPTAIN MASSEY You were fire, as the kids say. CAPTAIN MASSEY / HEATHER HEATHER Life is strange, Captain. You know, there's passion, there's lust. And boom, there's a woman's ticking clock. CAPTAIN MASSEY All I see is inner and outer beauty. HEATHER Hmm. TRISTAN You slipped away, to finish your novel? AVERY Follow-ups. You should do yours too. You're three weeks behind. TRISTAN It's just all very boring, isn't it? Emailing with doctors. Grown-up talk. AVERY Do you need something? TRISTAN Well, I just-- I I thought that you and I would do a a casual impromptu check-in. AVERY That's funny because it feels like a not-so-casual rehearsed speech. TRISTAN I've been trying to give you space. But we haven't-- AVERY Tristan. What is it? TRISTAN I feel like you've made a decision. Haven't you? To-To keep the baby, and you told Max. AVERY I don't even know whose baby this is, and I won't know for at least another couple of weeks. TRISTAN Yet, it feels like you've made some sort of choice already. AVERY Tristan, are you honestly ready to be a father? TRISTAN Yes. TRISTAN I want this more than anything. AVERY Because it's not just six months. It's-It's not even just 18 years. It is being responsible for another human being for the rest of your life. And-And I-I am still grappling with it. TRISTAN And that's understandable. It is, but if part of your grappling is you thinking that I'm not mature enough, well, then I can I will change. For good. For us. TRISTAN I'll prove you wrong. You'll see. MAIN TITLE DOCTOR ODYSSEY OLIVIA MAX Last one. MAX You're done. OLIVIA Whew. I don't have it. I had it once for about a day. I missed some tennis and then boop, it was gone. MAX You know, I'm still trying to figure you out. You're sure you're not here for some hot cougar action? OLIVIA Why do you ask? Are you attracted to me? MAX OLIVIA No, no, no, no, this cruise is like, um people-watching for me. OLIVIA I don't feel my age and I... and I like to feel sexy, but I don't think I have to have a little fling to feel sexy. MAX Oh. Sorry. Um, it is COVID. Uh, not to worry though. Nothing we can't handle. OLIVIA OLIVIA Well, at least I have a nice little Herm s mask tucked away somewhere in my suitcase. MAX I'm gonna have to quarantine you in your cabin until you test negative, but in order to further that along, I'm gonna put you on some Paxlovid right away. MAX You're gonna start with the large bottle. Dosages are on the back. OLIVIA If you're talking about locking me in a room, that's not gonna happen. MAX Olivia, this is not advice. OLIVIA Max, maybe you didn't hear me. I am following my own rule book these days. MAX Your own rule book? Well, this is Odyssey policy, CDC policy, and my policy, which means that it's God's writ on this boat. OLIVIA I will maintain my mask in all public places. I'm just not a woman who can be told what to do. MAX Duly noted. But this is not the forum to express your admirable independence. OLIVIA Max, I like you. I really do, and I respect you, which is rare. I can see what a kind, smart, dedicated man you are. But if you want to lock me up, you better call out the troops, General, because you're gonna need 'em. MAX She is a charming, funny, and Lord knows feisty woman, but she's also positive, so we have to put her into a quarantine cabin. It's Odyssey policy, my policy, and frankly it is the correct protocol. CAPTAIN MASSEY So you forcibly lock her up. What if she sues? MAX Way better than if the rest of the passengers sue because they got COVID because of her and our irresponsibility and an unnecessary degree of pearl-clutching. CAPTAIN MASSEY I do not clutch my pearls, young man. I'm asking you to handle this situation tactfully and graciously. Max, I know your history. I know you have zero tolerance for anti-vaxxers and COVID deniers. I get it. I understand. MAX Sir, yes, I had the virus, and, yes, I watched the bodies pile up in the freezer trucks, and it's a miracle that I'm not one of 'em, which is why I'm not willing to turn the other cheek just because some very charming woman wants to MAX Tact and graciousness. The Odyssey way. This is heaven, right? CAPTAIN MASSEY Max, listen to me. You're not some big city hospital ER doc now. You're kid gloves, soothing concierge assurances, charm and gloss. Cary Grant with a stethoscope. MAX I understand the assignment. I'll take care of it. CAPTAIN MASSEY Excellent. Dismissed. CAPTAIN MASSEY Well, you wanted to see the best view on The Odyssey. This is it. HEATHER I'm looking at it. CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh, you. HEATHER CAPTAIN MASSEY You all right? Something wrong? HEATHER Not wrong. Just really, really unexpected. Remember when I was feeling a bit off? CAPTAIN MASSEY Yeah, you mentioned a-a menopausal shift or something crazy. HEATHER Yeah, I mean, menopause is a funny thing. You know, you can go for six months without a period, and-and then you meet a handsome captain for a romantic getaway weekend, and before you know it, it comes back. I forget the details. It's just You know, women my age can still CAPTAIN MASSEY CAPTAIN MASSEY What? Heather, tell me. HEATHER I'm pregnant. And you're definitely the father. Congratulations, we're having a baby. OLIVIA Ah. The thugs. Welcome. I've been expecting you. MAX That is quite the outfit, Olivia. OLIVIA If you want to make an example out of me, let's give 'em a little show. GRIFFIN Miss Grace, I think you'll find that our designated care cabins are ideal for recovery. OLIVIA Oh. Goody goody gumdrops. Well, shall we? Someone will have to carry my train. WALLA DELIA Mmm. DELIA Hey, handsome. SAM Hey. SAM Okay, so I say we eat as much as we can, and then we eat some more, and then we spend the rest of the day in the spa. DELIA DELIA Oh. Hot stone, argon oil massages. SAM Mm-hmm. SAM Why not? Why not? DELIA Well, you certainly have a type. SAM I-I wasn't No, no, she was looking at me. DELIA I would never have brought you on a cougar cruise if I was the jealous type. DELIA How about this? I'm gonna get a massage, and you explore the ship and find everything fun there is to do, and forget about me for the next several hours. That's your mission. Should you choose to accept it. DELIA Mm-hmm? SAM / DELIA DELIA Enjoy the scenery. TRISTAN Okay, I have conferenced with your oncologist back home about the med mix he sent with you, and we are good to continue your regular treatments DELIA Thank you. TRISTAN manage the pain, and keep you feeling fine. And, uh, Delia, I'm so sorry about your diagnosis, truly. DELIA Metastasized to my brain. Can you believe it? Cancer just can't seem to get enough of me. How flattering. TRISTAN Hmm. TRISTAN Yeah. TRISTAN Well, nothing is stopping you from living your life, and I love that. Let's see. Daily dosage of gabapentin, metoclopramide, dexamethasone, celecoxib and a vitamin C drip. DELIA I know the routine, but thank you, hon. TRISTAN Of course you do. If you need anything, I'll be right here, okay? DELIA Okay. TRISTAN TRISTAN Oh, uh, it says here that you're traveling with your partner. Would you like him here with you? DELIA No. Heavens no. Uh, he thinks I'm getting a massage. TRISTAN Oh. He doesn't know. DELIA No. TRISTAN Right. TRISTAN And what about treatment? Uh, Radiation knife? DELIA Oh. Past all that hell. I am trying the, uh, celecoxib thing as a last resort, but am I hopeful? Not really. TRISTAN Hmm? DELIA I just wanted us to have this perfect memory here so I could say goodbye. Hmm. I refuse to let him be my caretaker again. It just makes me feel like I'm stealing his life. TRISTAN Hmm. CAPTAIN MASSEY Okay. So, do you really have to take a blood test? I thought those over-the-counter pregnancy tests were, like, 9999999% accurate. AVERY They are quite accurate. We just wanna make sure there's nothing else going on. HEATHER I got nauseous the same way when I was pregnant with my daughter eight million years ago. CAPTAIN MASSEY AVERY Little poke. AVERY This will measure your HCG levels, which will tell us how far along you are, if you are in fact pregnant. HEATHER If? CAPTAIN MASSEY You mean two lines on the stick could mean something else? AVERY There are incidents where a false positive pregnancy test result can occur. Uh, hormonal imbalances, certain ovarian tumors, even UTIs can sometimes elevate HCG levels. AVERY All of these are very rare and often benign. CAPTAIN MASSEY Good. HEATHER Captain, you must have duties you're neglecting. CAPTAIN MASSEY Hmm. HEATHER Maybe give us girls a minute, would you? CAPTAIN MASSEY Oh, yeah, I can do that if it's an order. HEATHER It is. CAPTAIN MASSEY HEATHER I was a psychotherapist for 22 years. And I know when someone's masking anxiety. HEATHER Is this about me? AVERY No, no, not at all. It's just, um AVERY I understand. I know how uncertain and confusing this can all feel. AVERY I I know. HEATHER Oh, hon. Come here. You're gonna be okay. We're gonna be okay. AVERY AVERY It wasn't planned, and I'm still trying to figure out what to do and how to feel. Most days I'm strong, but, uh, today, not so much. I'll have your prelims for you by the end of the day. HEATHER All right. AVERY AVERY OLIVIA In, in. Come in. MAX An olive branch. MAX They're very cozy. OLIVIA Bribery won't work. I've already contacted my lawyers. MAX How quickly can you say case dismissed? OLIVIA OLIVIA Well, they seem to think it's an open-and-shut case. I open my mouth and you get shut down. MAX Olivia, as fun as it is to have an archnemesis, I am not yours. MAX No matter how difficult you make this, I'm still going to give you the gold standard of treatment. OLIVIA Gold standard? Treating me like a prisoner of war? Please. MAX I have a contagious patient on a ship filled with several hundred other souls, some of whom are immunocompromised. I have got to take precautions, and you understand that. MAX None of this brings me joy, but it is the right thing to do, and I know you get that. OLIVIA Of course. I get it. OLIVIA But do you get what it's like for me? I mean, I I've been in handcuffs for 40 years in a controlling marriage, and I'm finally free. OLIVIA And then some men come to my door and yank that freedom away from me without so much as a, "How do you do?" MAX Things fall apart, the center cannot hold. Unless we all care about this. MAX And I cannot for the life of me fathom why one person's freedom should come at the expense of everybody else's health and safety, can you? OLIVIA No. It shouldn't, and I know that. But why couldn't you have just asked me? Hmm? Like, "Hey, Olivia, I know this sucks and it's really a bummer, but couldn't you please " Etcetera, etcetera. MAX You're right. MAX Forgive me. This is a difficult subject for me. I could have handled this better, and I apologize. It's a bit of a fight-or-flight thing for me. MAX May I? OLIVIA They are cozy. MAX OLIVIA Oh, dear. What's that? MAX I-I tested myself yesterday after you left. I'm negative. OLIVIA Yeah, well, yesterday was yesterday. MAX MAX MAX This cannot be happening. MAX AVERY Your blood test results show creatinine levels are normal, BUN, GFR, electrolytes, normal. So whatever's spiking your HCG levels isn't kidney-related. PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY Patient Record hGC - 32,345 u/mL Creatinine 0.8 mg/dL BUN - 16 mg/dL GFR - 106 mL/min/1.73 m2 AVERY Germ cell tumor in the ovaries could be another explanation, but your lactate dehydrogenase levels are good. HEATHER So no tumor, no kidney issues. Is this something you look into just because I'm a woman with more life experience? AVERY First of all, I'm stealing that. Second, these issues can happen to women at any age. And you, Heather, are a picture of perfect health. HEATHER HEATHER So what is it then? What do I have? AVERY I'd say, a viable pregnancy. HEATHER AVERY How do you feel? HEATHER I'll get back to you on that. TRISTAN What are your symptoms, Delia? It's a bit of a rash here, I see. DELIA Yeah, a little rash, stomach pain, yada yada. I need an antihistamine because I'm allergic to soy. DELIA We were doing that cooking thing and I got a little careless. But thank you anyway, Tristan. You're really a sweet guy. SAM Wait, do you guys know each other? DELIA Oh. I was down here earlier for TUMS. DELIA Baby, get me some water. Please? TRISTAN Yeah, it's, uh it's right through there. DELIA Don't. Please don't tell him. TRISTAN I can't legally tell him anything that you don't want me to, but Well, my experience is that these conversations go much better when they happen earlier. TRISTAN And you know your body, Delia. These symptoms do align with an allergic reaction to soy, so I'm gonna give you 50 mg of diphenhydramine, and we're gonna keep a keen eye on you. Okay. SAM Yeah. DELIA It's okay. MAX Yeah? OLIVIA Hi. I was just wondering if you wanted to play cards or something. MAX MAX Protocol dictates we should both be in isolation. OLIVIA Why are you wearing that PPE face guard thingy? We both have it. MAX Protocol. PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY Tristan slide to answer MAX Duty calls. MAX Start again. TRISTAN She's convinced that it's an allergic reaction to something she ate, but my gut is telling me it's something else. TRISTAN It started with a rash, with stomach pains. Now she's having trouble breathing. Diphenhydramine hasn't been effective. MAX All right, she's on a palliative care cocktail. Maybe the reaction could be to something in there? TRISTAN No, she's been on that cocktail for a while. A-A reaction would have shown up sooner. TRISTAN Max, she has cancer. I mean, is this terminal progression? MAX Mmm. Measured approach. Let's go with the facts. MAX What's in the cocktail? TRISTAN Gabapentin, dexamethasone, metoclopramide, nutrients, low-impact quality-of-life stuff, celecoxib. MAX Celecoxib? That can have adverse reactions, and they can be delayed onset, two weeks to a month. Symptoms would be TRISTAN A rash, trouble breathing, and stomach pains. Right, okay. So if she's been on steroids, I should start her on an albuterol treatment. MAX Attaboy. I'd also give her a platelet transfusion just for good measure. TRISTAN On it. MAX MAX Yes? TRISTAN Delia, I believe you are having an allergic reaction, just not to what we initially thought. TRISTAN It's not a food allergy. SAM To what then? TRISTAN Okay, I can counsel you in private, or both of you, but right now I need to get you started on a platelet transfusion. Do I have your permission? DELIA Yes. TRISTAN Thank you. DELIA And you can tell him. TRISTAN Uh, we think that it's an allergic reaction to the new medicine celecoxib that was added to your treatment plan. It can take several weeks for the adverse effects to start presenting. DELIA SAM I thought you came down here for TUMS. SAM Celecoxib, what what the hell is that? TRISTAN Well, it's, um-- DELIA It's a drug that blocks enzymes for cell growth. In my case, cancer cells. DELIA Sam, it's back. And the drug was a Hail Mary. SAM Okay. Well, we need to get you back on to radiation now. So I'm gonna call Dr. Scanlan-- DELIA No. No. Look, Sam, no. No. DELIA I have four months maybe, so please let me enjoy them. SAM What are you doing? What are you doing? Are you gonna sacrifice your life for waterslides and buffets? DELIA I'm sacrificing my life for life, and it's hardly sacrificing. It's pragmatism. It is what it is. SAM Oh, that's great. That's great. It is what it is. And-And wh-what is it, huh? That's the point of this whole cruise. So I could find somebody, right? So you don't have to feel so guilty. DELIA No. DELIA You can't be mad at me. SAM No, I am mad at you. I hate this. I hate that I love you. SAM You know, I get a choice. I do. DELIA I asked you earlier what I could say to make him walk away, and I think we figured that one out. TRISTAN Mm-hmm. TRISTAN Look, it may be none of my business, but may I offer you an observation? DELIA Yeah. Go for it. Anything. TRISTAN You'd both be fools for not cherishing every moment that you have together. OLIVIA Ooh. Hey. Hi. OLIVIA Want a nice hot toddy? MAX Respectfully, will you turn down the music, please? I am trying to rest in here and you probably should be too. OLIVIA I'm simply trying to keep myself entertained. Here. How about some Texas Hold'em? MAX No way. OLIVIA Wait, wait, wait. Come on. You can wear your hazmat stuff if you want to. Come on, Dr. Odyssey. Improve your bedside manner. Come on. One hand. Humor me. MAX If I win, I get to control the music for the rest of the time we're in quarantine. OLIVIA I've taken down bigger fish than you, Dr. Odyssey. MAX MAX Lady, I put myself through school doing this. OLIVIA MAX If I win, quiet for the rest of the night. No more music, no more tap-tap tapping on the divider door, just OLIVIA And if I win, we take a walk tonight up on the deck. It's late. No one else will be there. MAX Agreed. Two pairs, tens and fours. OLIVIA Aw. Full house. Oh, baby, let's wrap it up. MAX You cheated. OLIVIA You're outta your league here, Doc. Grab some shoes. Let's go. MAX MAX OLIVIA You are so cute. You bring along bleach wipes to scour any place we might possibly touch. MAX Hmm. OLIVIA You're a good doc, Max. OLIVIA The best really. MAX OLIVIA Why don't we grab a couple of chairs and just lie here and look up at the stars? What do you say? MAX You know, I admire the hell out of you, Liv. OLIVIA Really? Why? Because I'm 83 and still fighting? And annoying you? MAX MAX Oh, yes. OLIVIA And I haven't folded up my tent and moved into a nursing home, which, by the way, will never happen. MAX I think you and my mother would have really enjoyed each other. OLIVIA Did you lose her? MAX Right at the beginning of COVID. MAX I was in the hospital. Just before I slipped into a coma, she died. OLIVIA COVID too? MAX No, stroke. I tried for months to get her on a statin. I thought she was taking them, but she wasn't. Then... OLIVIA OLIVIA God, Max, that's so terrible. I'm I'm so sorry. MAX She was fiery like you. OLIVIA MAX And just always taking care of everybody. She was just giving and giving. Not taking care of herself. MAX In this job, I'm supposed to be in control at all times, hands on the wheel, steady in a crisis. But things like this happen, getting COVID, my mother dying OLIVIA OLIVIA MAX Then it's just, the illusion of control goes out the window. And that terrifies me. And usually when I'm terrified, I run. OLIVIA Honey, you're just having PTSD. MAX I'm gonna be a father, Liv. OLIVIA MAX I'm gonna be a father and it terrifies me, but not because I'm gonna run. It terrifies me because I wanna stay. OLIVIA Aw, honey, I know, I know, I know. MAX MAX OLIVIA Something's wrong. MAX What's going on? OLIVIA I I can't I can't catch my breath. MAX Okay. I need to get you to the infirmary right now. OLIVIA OLIVIA MAX Liv, just try to breathe normally. You're doing great. MAX Okay? Just try to breathe normally if you can. OLIVIA MAX Multisystem inflammatory syndrome. She's got COVID antibodies in her blood work TRISTAN So her current infection was actually a reinfection? MAX Correct. AVERY BP is dropping. Ninety-three over 54. MAX Fluids are going. Let's get her on corticosteroids for a severe inflammation. TRISTAN Aves. TRISTAN I'll do it. AVERY What are you hearing? MAX There's no fluid in her lungs yet. Heart is tachy. Can you get her in for an ultrasound? Also check for myocarditis and the inflammation levels in her abdominal organs. OLIVIA I have so much to do, please. Don't let me go. MAX Liv. Liv. You are way too peppery to leave the mortal plane. You're in good hands, I promise. MAX Just keep breathing. MAX Keep breathing. That's it. TRISTAN Well, her vitals are stabilizing, but the tests do show that she has mild myocarditis. She's still in critical condition. MAX Now we just need to give her time. IVIG and the steroids are starting to work. Let's get a repeat echo, run a blood panel. And w-we gotta push IV fluids around the clock. TRISTAN Okay. TRISTAN TRISTAN Max, you did everything you could. Now it's up to her. MAX Come on, Olivia. You're not gonna quit on me now, are you? HEATHER Bobby, I'm I admit I'm a little worried. I mean, having a baby at our age I mean, so many things could go wrong. CAPTAIN MASSEY I've thought of that too. We've got You have time to think about this and figure out what you wanna do and if you want to do it. And I'm gonna be there with you. We're going to do this together. CAPTAIN MASSEY Are you okay? HEATHER HEATHER Do you think I miscarried? Is there still a chance it's okay? AVERY Right now, my main concern is making sure you are okay. Spotting can happen for many reasons. This ultrasound will help me rule out more serious complications. HEATHER AVERY It's gonna be okay. All right. You're going to feel a little bit of pressure. HEATHER AVERY There it is. HEATHER CAPTAIN MASSEY Well, how'd it go? Is she okay? AVERY She's stable, comfortable, resting, but I do wanna get her to a hospital when we make port. CAPTAIN MASSEY CAPTAIN MASSEY Is there a problem? I mean, she's gonna be okay? AVERY She didn't miscarry. Everything looks good, healthy. CAPTAIN MASSEY Well, you could've opened with that. AVERY I'm sorry, I'm sorry. But I wanna get her to a hospital as a precaution. The spotting was likely due to cervical irritation, which is not uncommon in early pregnancy. CAPTAIN MASSEY Avery. You know, you think you know where your life is, and you've got a nice clear picture of it. And I've come to know that we're all walking around absolutely 100% clueless. AVERY I'm aware, believe me. Congratulations, sir. CAPTAIN MASSEY Thank you. You know, being a father was my favorite part in the whole world. Even better than my first naval command. But I wasn't there enough. I have a lot of regrets. CAPTAIN MASSEY I just didn't think I'd ever get this opportunity again. This stays between us, right? AVERY No, HIPAA rules. Don't worry. CAPTAIN MASSEY No, no, no. Not that. This. Me blubbering like a baby seal. AVERY Really happy for you, Captain. CAPTAIN MASSEY Thanks. HEATHER CAPTAIN MASSEY Well, they owe me some days off. Now Well, no, actually they owe me a lot of days off. HEATHER Yeah, but 18 years' worth? CAPTAIN MASSEY Something like that. HEATHER We'll be the oldest parents at the piano recital. CAPTAIN MASSEY Piano? I already bought the kid a drum kit, five-piece with a hi-hat. HEATHER This is crazy, right? Is this even happening? Is it possible? CAPTAIN MASSEY Well, apparently, anything is possible. We got a lot to talk about. HEATHER Oh, yes. WALLA SAM You know I had a secret crush on you for years? SAM The first time that we went out, it was-- DELIA Oh. Pink Martini, Caf Carlyle. And nobody else wanted my extra ticket. SAM I did. I love Pink Martini. DELIA Yes. DELIA SAM Do you remember after the show, you walked with me down into the subway? DELIA You missed your train. SAM Yeah. DELIA It was a nightmare. It was 115 degrees and it smelled awful. SAM Like Like very expensive French cheese. DELIA SAM And you insisted on waiting with me till my train came. And it was on that very cheesy subway platform that my work crush, kind of metamorphosed into love. DELIA Mmm. SAM With you, Dee. And that feeling, that-that's never changed. Not in six years. All right? SAM You can take out a restraining order if you if you really don't want me around, but it's not gonna matter because I'm gonna wait with you until you're on your train and the doors close, and, uh you're on your way. I'm gonna wait with you. DELIA No. DELIA I always wanted to see Venice. DELIA Mm-hmm. SAM Mm-hmm? DELIA SAM Well, good. All right. DELIA Okay. SAM Let's not waste whatever time we have left. OLIVIA OLIVIA If I test positive, do I get to go around again, one more ride on the Wonder Wheel? MAX Wouldn't that be a treat? OLIVIA MAX Alas, you are negative. Just like me.
