What the hell is ICE doing here?
Waiting for us
to discharge our patients.
ICE has been circling
our church for weeks.
They've been coming by at random times
waiting for someone
to be out of our protection.
They're coming home from work,
leaving to go to school.
Okay. Well, you're safe here.
They can't come into
the hospital, can they?
They could, but they won't.
We're a sensitive location too.
Yeah, but they're going
to be waiting out there.
Which is why we're not
discharging any patients
who came in from the church.
Spread the word... code .
On it.
You're gonna let those things eat me?
You ready?
Hey, will I feel them?
You're on a lot of pain medication
but they might tickle a little.
And we'll be right here the whole time.
Yeah. Maggots have been used in medicine
for thousands of years,
and they're the best way
to get all the dead tissue
off your legs.
And the best part is
they're picky eaters.
They only like the dead skin
so they leave all the nice
clean living tissue.
And after they're all done,
we'll be able to apply
new skin grafts to your legs.
Attention, we are in code .
I repeat, the hospital

- ICE.

Just relax, focus on getting better.
I used to see the, uh,

Okay, Rahel, hi.
So tell me about these talks with God.
How long have they been happening?
For as long as I can remember.
Okay. So they started
before you came to America?
They happen more now. Almost every day.
Almost every day.
What about your little brother?
Does he, um, talk with God?
Not unless God is on
WhatsApp, plays Minecraft.
[LAUGHS] Okay, so typical
little kid, check.
I know you think I'm crazy.
I'm not even sure if
Father O'Connell believes me,
even though everything he preaches
is about talking with God...
even though the Bible is full
of people who talk with God.
Yeah. First of all,
I do not think you're crazy,
for the record.
And secondly, we all talk to God, right?
Or some version of our
perception of God, anyway.
So no, I don't think you're crazy.
What do the talks feel like?
Can you explain it?
Love.
It feels like love.
Love is good.
Okay. And it just happens
out of the blue?
I guess so.
I just light incense
and focus, and it happens.
Okay, simple enough.
You really don't think I'm crazy?
I really do not think
you're crazy, okay?
You're no crazier than this guy
right here, or me, you know?
And that's saying something.
I don't think you're crazy.
I think you're a caring,
intuitive and spiritual human being.
And lucky.
But I am going to need to
ask you for a few more tests.
You can trust me.
I don't trust anyone.
That's how me and my brother
made it this far.
Okay. I understand that.
But, Rahel, if I'm gonna help you,
I'm gonna need you to trust me.
Just a little.
I'll admit, it's not the most welcoming,
but it will tell us
what to make of the discharge.
I can tell you from personal experience
that getting a mammogram sucks.
It's like stepping back
into a body that isn't mine.
Does that sound familiar?
So for people like us, trans men,
it's tempting

Yes, I know.
But you don't understand.
But we're willing to try.
You said you're from Nigeria, yes?
Did they hurt you there?
I don't need to tell you the
terrible things that happened.
I'm alive.
I'm here.

to destroy...
All I can do...
the best thing I can do
is to fill it with love.
This body my home.
And you want to protect your home.
I can't put myself in that machine.
Okay. It's all right.
It's okay.
Sorry. Okay.
Do you wanna get arrested
and go to jail?
Because if you don't step aside...
Okay, he's not the one
you have to worry about...
All right. All right. What is the issue?
They're trying to make an arrest.
Okay. I'm Max Goodwin,
the medical director here.
I'm going to have to ask you
to turn around
and walk out of here
or I'm going to report you
for violating HIPAA laws.
Dr. Goodwin, I'm sorry we have to meet
under these circumstances,
but I have a warrant here
for the arrest of Salvador Perez,
and I have a judge issuing warrants
for every undocumented
that you're harboring.
This is a warrant for missing
an immigration hearing.
I don't make the laws, Dr. Goodwin,
I just enforce them.
He probably missed the hearing
because you were staking out his church
and he was terrified to leave.
Do you really want
to walk into this hospital
and start arresting people?
We respected the church as a sanctuary,
but this doesn't look
like a church to me.
So you can either help us do our job
or you can get out of the way.
All right, everybody, quickly inside.
Let's move some of these tables
and make some room.
Hi there, so sorry about this.
Do you mind if I, uh...
There you go. Enjoying the pasta?
Max, we appreciate what you're doing,
but I don't see
how hiding in a cafeteria
is going to protect anyone.
You're absolutely right.
Do you have your rosary on you?
Of course.
If ICE can come into
our hospital but not a church,
well, we'll have to make do.
With your blessing, Father,
welcome to your new sanctuary.
[PUNCHY MUSIC]
Come to make a confession?
I bet you've got quite a few sins
you'd like to get off your chest.
I can't believe that I have to say this,
but you cannot hide a bunch
of undocumented immigrants
in our cafeteria.
Well, they're not just
undocumented immigrants,
Mrs. Trahn right there,
she was a nanny for Manhattan families
for about three decades.
And that's Daniel there...
He crossed the border
pretty much by himself
to find his mother.
And the little boy
he's playing with is Nelson,
one of the brightest boys
you'll ever meet.
And he's just waiting
for the day to go to school.
Please don't try to appeal
to my sense of humanity, Max.
No? Okay. How about this.
They're our patients,
and it's going to be
pretty hard to treat them
when they're being dragged away in vans.
And, uh, where will they sleep?
Hmm? Where will they go
to the bathroom, Max?
ICE is here legally executing
warrants set by a judge,
and I highly doubt
they're going to just drop them
because you decided
to hide them in a hospital.
And again, for the record,
we are a hospital
and not a refugee center, Max.
You really think ICE
is going to give them
- the medical care they need?
- You know what?
I'm willing to let
the government do their job
and to let this hospital do ours.
So Church Amsterdam is over.
I cannot believe
that you put up with this
for three years.
I can't do it.
I can't send that boy
to a detention center.
Neither can I.
Maybe neither of us has what it takes
to make the hard decisions.
Maybe we can still make the right ones.

I'll call for a vote

Really?
Do you have the votes to pull that off?
Not yet.

Wait, no.
No, you might see a seizure on the scan,
but I know how I feel...
I know I'm talking to God.
That's the thing about
these Dostoevsky seizures.
They can feel... inspiring.
They can feel blissful,
like you're in another world.
But left untreated,
they can cause brain damage.
The good news is that
they are very treatable
and I just so happen
to have a medication
you can start today.
I don't want that. I help people.
Back home, I stopped my aunt's
migraines and people at church,
they come to me.
I can carry their suffering.
Why would you take that away?
Okay. Yes, you would stop having
this very profound spiritual experience.
But again, if we don't treat
your epilepsy,
your seizures will go from temporal lobe
to full tonic-clonic.
And I know you feel like you
can control them right now.
But eventually, believe me,
they will control you.
But what about Yakub?
He still needs me.
Yes, he does.
Yakub will need you when he gets better.
That is absolutely correct.
But if you don't manage your epilepsy,
you won't be the sister that he knows.
I know what it's like to lose a sibling,
and I'm not going to
let that happen to Yakub.
All right. Let's go ahead

- Right on.

what every church

to harbor those who have
nowhere else to go,

Why not us?

Yakub?
Yakub?
No, come back!
Blood pressure's dropping.
Ventilator's down to of Peep.
Airway constriction is easing.
Compartment syndrome is letting up.
That was fast.
Someone was looking out
for this kid today.
She's seizing. It's tonic-clonic.
- Help me get her on her side.
- We should get her to the ED.
No, we can't. ICE are waiting there.
Right, okay, okay.
Dr. Hyet, pediatrics.
Dr. Hyet, pediatrics.
It's strange to see myself
like this, but good.
Ha. I feel good.
Temi, you need to know
that your cancer has spread,
and we couldn't remove all of it.
So... do you mean...
You do have treatment options.
After you've healed, you'll
need to come in every day
for chemo and radiation for six weeks.
Six weeks. So I can stay here
in the hospital?
I'm afraid they're dissolving
the sanctuary
and everyone from the church has to...
has to leave.
I just found out, I'm so sorry.
And go where?
I don't know.
But our medical director is trying.
Trying.
Even if you can protect me
from ICE today,
I'll be risking ICE every time
I come in for treatment.
It's a risk, yes.
But not treating your cancer
will k*ll you.
Being deported will k*ll me.
Going to detention will k*ll me.
Every option is a death sentence.
Meds are working but recovery
is going to take some time.
She's going to need to be admitted,
which, and I can't believe
I'm actually saying this,
is a good thing.
Because then ICE can't touch her.
I never should have
let things go this far.
You and me both.
This girl's faith
is something else though.
It's like a fortress.
Even when she was fading in and out,
at one point she came to
and she looked right at me,
and she said,
"Let me go and you'll be free."
I don't think she was
talking about herself.
She was connected to something larger.
Maybe she was onto something.
- You okay?
- I might be.
We all might be.
Send all available ambulances
to the west exit.
- Why?
- The less you know the better.
Nice, thank you.
, ...
All right. Hey, buddy, hey.
- Is this everyone?
- Temi was the last in ICU.
- Cafeteria is clear.
- Pray this works.
- Oh, I have.
- And be careful.
Too late for that.
They're on the move.

Where are they? Where are the illegals?
Illegals? No, I just run a hospital.
All we have are patients.

The thing is,
they still don't have a home.
Everyone deserves a home, don't they?
Mm-hmm. They certainly do.
Including you, if you want one.
You really held your own today.
You were a real pro in that OR.
So if that interests you,
there's a home waiting for you
in general surgery.
I was just doing my job.
No, you were doing more than that.
I see now why they created
a fifth slot for you.
- A fifth slot?
- Of residents.
You know the last time that happened,
Dr. Nottingham's family
had to donate a whole building
to the hospital?
Man, I really had it out for him.
But now he's one of the best in cardio.
So will you think about it?
- I will think about it.
- All right.

And there's one more matter
I'd like to bring before the board.
Glad you could make it, Max,
I was about to call a vote.
Oh, a vote, really? Love voting.
Everybody should do it
as often as possible,
Though obviously not more
than once in the same election.
- Max.
- Sorry. [AHEM]
I call a vote to terminate
Veronica Fuentes
as medical director.
[TENSE MUSIC]
All in favor?
Seems you're one vote shy, Karen.
Well, um, given today's debacle,
all in favor of ousting Karen Brantley.
As board chair of this hospital,
please raise your hands.
