05x20 - A Needle in the Heart

[bunniefuu]

Dad, are they gonna separate you from me?

Why do you ask that?

'Cause you haven't been a very good dad.

I promise I'm gonna do better.

It was so easy for me to see Crockett as the problem.

Whatever happened between him and me in the past...

I get it now.

Because the real problem was always right here.

Whatever it is you want, it isn't me.

It's been a really good couple of weeks.

Yeah, it has. And not just us.

Rehab... you been knocking it out of the park.

I'm really proud of you.

Hey. - Oh, hey.

Sorry, I was trying not to wake you.

Where are you headed so early?

To a meeting. I feel like I could use one.

Wait a second. I'll get dressed and drive you.

No, no, no, no, no, no. No, stay in bed.

I'll see you at work.

♪ Bye.

Hannah, you forgot your phone.

Dr. Moody said you were the one to see...

That you'd take good care of us.

Yeah. Moody and I go way back.

Medical school.

We used to ride motorcycles together.

Dr. Moody rode a motorcycle?

Yeah, but he had to give it up when he became a pediatrician.

The stethoscope kept flying off his neck on the way to work.

Please don't give Billy any ideas.

I have enough worries with him on his bike.

Uh-oh.

You like riding your bike, Billy?

Yeah, but my mom won't let me ride at night.

Well, that's probably a good thing, bud.

X-ray's ready. Step back, please.

All right, hold your breath for me now, Billy.

Ready?

We got a couple of non-displaced cracked ribs.

The issue is this hemothorax here in Billy's chest.

Hemothorax? That sounds bad.

No, it's just a buildup of blood between the lung and chest wall.

It explains why he's been having difficulty breathing.

But we can fix that.

We just have to drain the blood.

Well, does that mean surgery? Well, hopefully not.

We're gonna try a chest tube first.

Set me up for a 28 French tube.

Okay, Billy. I'm gonna bring you back.

Now can you lift that left arm for me?

Maybe.

Oh, yeah. I know it's sore.

All right, this next part's gonna hurt a little bit.

Think you can handle it? I'll be okay.

That's what I like to hear.

Billy was born with a diaphragmatic hernia, so unfortunately, he's no stranger to hospitals.

Aw, well, you are very brave, Billy, and you're doing great.

Speaking of, Billy, how come I ain't ever seen you and Spider-Man in the same place at the same time?

Almost done.

It must be t*rture to watch your kid suffer like that.

Yeah, I'm sure it is.

You ever think about having kids?

Oh, no. Kids are not my speed.

And why is that?

Dr. Marcel...

Detective Poulson, Chicago PD. Doc.

And Detectives Bridges and Hayes from the New Orleans Police Department.

Oh, my old stomping grounds.

Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

Well, what can I do for you gentlemen?

I'm just an escort today. Okay.

Detective Hayes and I, we're following up a detail from this cold case that popped back up recently.

Uh-huh.

You mind if we talk in private?

The consultation room is free.

Yeah, of course. Follow me.

All right. Gentlemen.

Cold case?

Yeah, from a homicide from their town.

And they came all the way up here to talk to Crockett?

What's going on?

I don't know. They weren't willing to share.

♪

Hey.

Hey.

I haven't seen you around the last few days.

I've been doing ride-alongs with the medics.

Nice of you to help them out.

Um...

I got the last of my stuff out of your apartment, so...

Here.

♪ I know you'll be happy to move back in.

Thanks.

I should go.

Sexton, I need a nurse.

Trent Sutton, 25-year-old male, GCS 12.

Vitals stable. Semi-rousable on 4 liters, O2.

Found collapsed in the DePaul Library.

Looks like he suffered a penetrating injury to the chest.

Okay, on my count. One, two, three.

Is that a needle?

Let's get an X-ray, AP, and lateral.

Hey, Trent.

I'm Dr. Lanik. You're okay.

I'm gonna remove this needle, Trent, but I gotta take a picture first to make sure we're not flying blind.

No, no! Don't take it out!

Restraints!

Get off of me!

Let's get that X-ray already. He pushed it deeper.

I can't take it if he won't stay still.

Get off of me! Push two of Versed.

♪

In.

Look who it is. Anna Charles.

Hi, Maggie. - Mm.

Dad dragged you into work today?

I did no such thing. - Oh, no.

I... I like spending time with my dad.

I wanted to come.

Anna wants to volunteer, actually.

Oh, really? No school today?

Not really.

I mean, my class went on a field trip to a science museum, but I figured I'd learn more about science here.

I don't know about that, but maybe Deandra over in pediatrics can use some help.

Just so you know, this one right here, her middle name... "Pop Quiz."

Mm-hmm.

Maggie "Pop Quiz" Lockwood. I'm just saying.

That's me. - Okay.

Come on. Let's get you a vest.

Hey, Dan. You got a sec?

What you got?

Our friend here's insides.

Those are sewing needles.

Four in all, which he seems to have put there himself.

I was able to remove this one, which was only partially submerged, but that one there?

He managed to get all the way into his heart.

I'm gonna do a cardio workup, but after that, he's all yours.

Does it hurt when I touch it?

Ah, more than I'd like to admit.

Sorry, man.

When did you first notice the rash?

About a week ago. I was hoping it would go away.

Well, it's good you're here now.

You have cellulitis. Bacterial infection.

I want to get you started on an antibiotic.

Roger, are you allergic to penicillin?

Not that I know of.

Looks like Mr. LaRusso was here about three years back.

And you were his attending.

I... I thought he looked familiar.

Well, I apologize for not recognizing you.

It's all right.

I'm sure you see a lot of patients.

Yeah.

Okay, so I see here you had a prior infection.

Uh-huh.

And we treated it with cefazolin last time.

I don't remember. My mind's a sieve.

That's all right.

I'm worried this rash is the same bacteria.

I want to make sure we stay ahead of it.

Doris, set him on an IV. Mm-hmm.

And, you know, at least we know we had success with that drug already.

What's that for?

It's just to monitor the rash.

I wanna make sure it shrinks down some before we discharge you.

Now, your emergency contact... has your wife listed.

Do you want us to call her and tell her we'll be keeping you here for a few more hours?

No, don't worry about that. I'll give her a call.

All right then.

Something wrong? What's going on?

The chest tube should've drained more blood.

Yeah, it's been a few days since he's been hurt.

There's a chance the hemothorax is mostly clot.

Let's get him up for a non-contrast chest CT.

I should've taken him in to see Dr. Moody earlier.

No, you didn't do anything wrong.

Billy, you mind if we speak with your mom outside?

Okay, thanks, bud. I'll be back.

So if the CT shows me what I think it is, I'm recommending surgery.

Oh, God. No, I know that sounds scary.

But the procedure, a video-assisted thoracoscopy, is minimally invasive.

We use a scope to clean out his chest.

When Billy was a baby, he had to go on ECMO.

After all the transfusions, he developed antibodies in his blood, I guess to help his immune system.

Yeah, Moody told me.

But I think we should be able to find compatible blood.

Yeah, I'll have the blood banks start sourcing antibody-matched blood.

Billy's gonna get the best care possible.

And nothing to eat or drink. Okay.

All right. - Thank you.

I'll schedule him in in a bit.

Sure.

Hey, Crockett. - Yeah?

What was all that with the detectives?

They're investigating a m*rder from seven years back.

Well, what'd they want with you?

I get the impression they think I'm a suspect.

Why would they think that?

'Cause they claim to have gotten my DNA at the scene.

♪

So... so let's talk about these needles.

Can you tell me about the first time this happened?

I'm really embarrassed. Trent, don't be.

If you knew how many instances of self-harm I saw at this hospital...

Oh, no. I wasn't trying to hurt myself.

I was trying to make myself feel better.

Okay.

Yeah, I'm under a ton of pressure right now.

I have to defend my dissertation next month, and it's been messing me up.

My heart races, I get nervous.

There's this pre...

There's this pressure in my chest that I can't get rid of.

And the needles, they alleviate that pressure.

I know it sounds insane, but it's the only thing that helps.

I'm telling you, there's something wrong with my heart.

Look, I absolutely believe that it feels that way to you, but the EKG says otherwise.

Trent's a PhD candidate at DePaul.

And recently his anxiety is, you know, kicking up this pretty bizarre compulsion.

Like OCD? Well, I mean, kind of.

But instead of washing his hands incessantly, he's sticking needles in his chest.

You get a look at his scans? Yes.

This needle appears to be floating free in his right ventricle.

At the moment, it's not doing any damage, but if it were to move...

It's gonna get spit out into his lungs.

Could become a huge mess.

Most likely a pulmonary embolism.

So, can I schedule him today?

I have reservations.

Is the patient suicidal?

Hm, I mean, not consciously, but I can't argue that the behavior isn't life-threatening.

Ah, so then he may be inclined to reinsert the needles even if we do pull them out.

How long will it take for you to assess his compulsion?

Getting to the root of his anxiety, remapping his coping skills...

I mean, that's gonna take some time.

But we'll get right into it post-op.

Hm, fair enough.

I will proceed with removing the needles, but you'll have to get his consent.

I'll work on that.

Hey, sweetie.

I got kicked off the peds floor.

What?

Deandra said that she wouldn't get off her phone.

I thought you wanted to be here.

I do.

I just didn't think everyone would be so uptight.

Well, do I need to confiscate that thing?

What... no.

Well, put it in your pocket and keep it there.

You know what?

Leah in the waiting room needs some help.

Ideally something that requires two thumbs.

Mm-hmm. She'll keep her busy.

Okay.

Hi. I'm Dr. Halstead.

Can you tell me your name?

Yes, I can.

Oh, this is a test.

Right, then. My name's Christian.

Pleased to make your acquaintance.

Pretty nasty infection there, Christian.

Is that why you came in today?

Christian? Hey.

You with me? Mm-hmm, all the way.

Your vein's rock hard. When did you last sh**t up?

Uh... oh... what day is today?

Okay. Let's consent him for an I&D.

Sorry that took so long.

They made me park out in the satellite lot.

Well, that's all right.

I'll just be a few minutes.

There you are, love.

I was afraid you'd abandoned me.

♪ You two know each other?

Christian's an old friend.

Old friends, the two of us... Okay, not here.

Okay. - Will, can we talk?

I'll get those off you later.

I know this looks strange. Well...

We used to date. About a year ago.

Another part of my past I'm trying to put behind me.

But I thought you were going to the meeting.

Yeah, I was. I did.

And things were just winding up when I got this call from Christian.

When I saw how bad his arm was, I brought him in straight away.

You went to his house?

You see the state he's in. He's in no condition to drive.

Mm-hmm.

I guess I might feel a little guilty for getting clean.

I understand.

Are we good? - Absolutely.

Okay.

Okay. - Mm.

Oh, hey. You forgot this this morning.

Thank you.

I'll see you later? - Yeah.

Do you have any updates for Ms. Harris?

Yeah.

Tell her that Billy did great with the anesthesia and that we're progressing.

Great.

The timing may be poor, Ms. Goodwin, but this is a police matter.

Dr. Marcel will not be disturbed while he's in the operating room.

The judge just gave us a warrant for his arrest.

Detective, I am not interrupting a surgery on an 11-year-old child for any reason.

You can take up your concerns with Dr. Marcel when the operation is over.

Well, we got no place to be.

Come on, Kevin. What have you heard?

I really shouldn't be telling you this...

But?

The detectives in New Orleans have been sitting on DNA evidence for a long time.

Well, why'd they wait until now to come get Crockett?

Forensics pulled samples from you and Crockett when you two got kidnapped.

Right, to cross-match it with the fugitive's DNA.

Those samples got put into a national database.

Crockett is a positive match for a cold case m*rder in Louisiana.

There's no way.

Listen, I'm just telling you what I heard.

And DNA is hard to refute.

I'll let you know if I hear anything else.

Thank you.

See, here's where we're at.

We gotta get these needles out of your chest, especially the one that's hanging around in your right ventricle.

And we're gonna do that tonight.

Surgery tonight? - Yeah.

And then when you're recovering, I think it'd be a really good idea if we would start to address...

How long will I be here? In the hospital?

I'd say probably at least three days, and then...

That doesn't work.

I only have a couple of weeks until I defend my dissertation, and if I fail, the last five years will have been a complete waste of my life.

I need to get out of here.

Okay, but you need to understand we can't let you just walk out of here with a needle in your heart.

His mother called me.

She's concerned about his operation.

She said Dr. Marcel's in some sort of trouble?

Please.

It can't be true.

Crockett would never hurt anyone.

I know.

Well, if the m*rder took place seven years ago, then that means that you and Crockett would have been at medical school at that time.

Did you know him well? - Yeah.

And Crockett was going through a lot back then, but no way was he k*lling people.

What do you mean?

I shouldn't have said anything.

It's not my story to tell.

Please.

Do you have Choi's cell? - Yeah.

Good.

You know, for a guy who's supposedly taking his TEMS training, Choi violated about 100 different protocols when he ran in there.

I'm gonna make a small incision in his chest.

I'm gonna throw the Kn*fe away where I can't reach it.

Wow.

Why is Trent Sutton still down here?

I thought you were sending him up to the OR.

I want to, but you know, he won't consent to surgery.

You know what's bizarre?

He claims to get this pain in his chest, right?

That I was pretty much convinced was psychosomatic, but then after this last episode, he fainted.

That leads me to believe that, I don't know, maybe there is some kind of underlying physical condition there.

Well, let me know how it progresses because I got a waiting room full of patients, and... oh, and now I got a ambos coming in.

I'd like to free up the room.

Give that to me now. - What?

Why? - Why?

Because clearly it's interfering with your ability to do your work.

Yeah, I apologize.

There's been a misunderstanding.

We had a case of mistaken identity, but you didn't need to come in.

We came to see Brian. He's a friend of mine.

I'm sorry, but Brian must have stolen your insurance card.

He presented it when he came in.

No, I gave it to him. - Roger.

His insurance lapsed and he needed to see a doctor.

Because I was going off of your chart, I treated his skin infection with cephalosporin, which you're not allergic to.

But Brian is? - Extremely!

Is he gonna be okay?

The burn surgeons are hopeful we caught it in time, but there's gonna be permanent scarring.

Oh, my God.

I'm sorry. I didn't know what else to do.

He needed my help.

Well, your help could've k*lled him today.

You can't just keep me here.

I don't understand why we are doing this again.

Versed wouldn't have had an effect on his EKG.

No, but it would affect his anxiety.

I mean, look at his U wave without it.

He's tachycardic. What is that?

It means your heart rate's elevated because you're anxious.

And it also appears there's an extra electrical pathway...

Most likely Wolff Parkinson-White syndrome.

Wait, what is that?

It's actually a congenital defect that usually becomes symptomatic around your age.

And it can be intermittent, sometimes only appearing during exercise.

Or periods of stress and anxiety.

I can correct this when I remove the needles.

You... you can make this all go away?

Yeah, well, what are we waiting for?

I'll assemble my team.

So I'm out of here, when?

You know, we have plenty of time to talk about that.

Yeah, but you just said that everything was gonna be fixed.

Look, what we've done is we figured out where that terrible pressure is coming from.

Now we have to address why you were responding to it the way you were.

I was just relieving the pressure in my chest.

Trent.

Sticking needles in your chest, physiologically, had absolutely nothing to do with relieving that pain.

You're a human being, okay?

You're gonna have stressors in your life.

We just gotta figure out a way for you to deal with that anxiety in a way that's less self-destructive.

It'll take a little time.

"DNA evidence can lead to wrongful convictions"?

Is this about Crockett? What do you need, Doris?

Blood bank rep just delivered a new batch for your patient, Billy Harris.

No, we can't.

Yeah, I did. A long time ago.

Okay. Thanks.

No. No, no, no, no, no, no.

I knew... I knew they were gonna mess with me.

You need to call them back. Keep negotiating...

For three hours to get a car? They're playing games.

Hey, I know how these guys think.

When you say you're done talking, that's when they force their way in.

Man, I've screwed up so many times in my life.

It's like... it's like I never do the right thing.

I know how that feels.

What do you mean?

I blew it with someone I care about.

Made some big mistakes. Wish I could do it over.

Yeah.

Crockett Marcel, you are under arrest for the m*rder of Georgine Burrows.

What, are you serious? Poulson...

Wait, you're making a mistake.

You've got the wrong guy.

Ma'am, it's police business. Just a minute of your time.

You said you found Dr. Marcel's DNA at a m*rder scene seven years ago.

His medical records show that he donated bone marrow, and he donated it before the m*rder occurred.

So?

Sometimes recipients of bone marrow transplants inherit their donor's DNA.

Their blood cells become genetically identical to their donor's.

It's rare, but it's real.

And we're not disputing your evidence, detectives.

We're only asking you to consider looking at the recipient of Dr. Marcel's bone marrow.

And if his recipient does have his DNA, then your m*rder*r is still out there.

Actually, I think I might be coming down with something.

I think maybe you should stay home from school.

And some work.

Others, like running away, I mean, they just... they just don't.

You're saying I need to go back to school.

It just hurts.

You know. Like, when does it stop?

What do you mean?

When does... when does life stop hurting?

Yeah, I guess.

Life's always gonna have its ups and downs, you know?

But in my experience, we do get better at dealing with them.

You will too, honey.

♪ Oh, Will.

Your insurance fraud patient used a fake ID when he checked in today.

I looked at the copy that Leah made, and she should've caught that.

I had a feeling something was up.

You know when you get the sense you're being lied to?

I should've said something right then and there.

It's okay to give someone the benefit of the doubt.

Even if I'm wrong?

You believe in people. That's a good thing.

You know you need to quit.

Yeah, yeah. - Mm-hmm.

Ah!

It seems I've been released back into the wild.

Thank you, Doctor.

Again, if you want some help, we can set you up with addiction specialists.

This one's already been in my ear about that.

Ash.

I really appreciate you coming over today.

Cheers, mate. - Yep.

Well, this all must have seemed pretty suspicious, especially with the whole phone thing.

Hannah...

Like, I did go to that meeting today.

And when I said that Christian called me, I meant that he called our mutual friend, Laura, who was there with me.

And so, when you gave me back the phone, it felt like...

Hey.

I believe you.

Really?

Because when I heard you ended up at your ex-girlfriend's place...

If you're telling me that's what happened, then that's what happened.

Let's get out of here. - Mm-hmm.

The good news is you'll be back on your bike soon.

Don't go too fast now.

I told you Dr. Marcel was the guy for this.

Thank you, Dr. Marcel.

Thank you both. - Of course.

Hey, Nat. - Mm-hmm?

I appreciate all your help. Yeah.

The thing I can't figure out... who gave you the idea I donated bone marrow?

I always knew you were a good guy.

Dr. Moody told me about what happened... with your baby.

I see.

Do me a favor... keep that to yourself.

People hear that sort of thing, they tend to look at you different.

Of course.

Yeah.

Good night, Dr. Manning.

Night.
