A patient's treatment plan takes an unexpected turn when Max gets overly invested. Meanwhile, Reynolds celebrates his birthday with some help from the hospital and Kapoor grapples with a case that hits close to home.
This was a really great episode that had a bunch of really well-done scenes and each of the different stories told in this episode or so well done in really well detailed and had a good beginning and ending to each of them. Everything with Max and him dealing with this patient who has some form of cancer and has opportunity to get this surgery but it is much more likely that this patient will die on the operating table so Max dealing with this patient refusing to get the surgery and rather choosing to live a rather short but less painful life was an interesting thing to see how Max grapple that. And just that whole story told by this Rabbi about all these different comparisons to the Bible and all these different stories and stuff was really interesting to see how those comparisons were made. I'm still very confused and somewhat uncertain about the ending for Max we're through all this he decided to go with experimental surgery to cure cancer instead of the regular way and that just felt like a sudden turn that didn't quite fit his character in my opinion. Then everything with Dr. Reynolds and him dealing with not wanting to celebrate his birthday did make for some fun scenes but that was probably the weaker of the stories in this episode but it still did show some more of his character growth and getting to know his character more which was really interesting and entertaining to see. The moments with Dr. Kapoor were probably some of my favorite moments in this episode because his whole storyline revolves around this patient who has depression and her Asian heritage doesn't really believe in mental illness so they are struggling to grapple with how to help her when they don't necessarily believe that she's sick. And Kapoor dealing with those similar problems because he's someone who feels the same way and him going to this patient's mother and sort of working through how to approach this and how to truly understand that this is an illness that needs to be cured was really interesting to see. Then just overall this was a really entertaining episode and I'm so excited to see what they're going to do next especially with how this episode ended for Max.
