What about him?

Shift the focus to him, you know?

It could cost me my job, my reputation,

but I think it's worth the risk.

May I ask, is there

anything in particular

- that is concerning you?

- Oh, no, not at all.

I have complete faith

in your research, Doctor,

as well as my own.

Maybe we can build something together

that will make it all worthwhile.

I think we can.

But we need more patients.

Then let's find more patients.

that if you have a chance,

You must be tired of

Um, "A Leap of Faith" is about

the patients other doctors

have given up on,

patients like Hannah Warren.

Her memory is the reason

why I will never, ever,

ever give up this work.

She is with me.

She's always with me. She's with us.

She is this beautiful

angel on my shoulder.

So many people think that

when you're exposed to death

and suffering every day,

you become immune.

But it's quite the opposite.

Every time I lose a patient,

my heart breaks into pieces.

But luckily,

I met someone who was

able to take those pieces

and put them back together.

And on Christmas night,

when I bent my knee, she said yes.

- ALL: Aw.

And, Benita, I have to tell you,

the title of this special is so fitting,

especially because it

brought us together

you and me.

You made me whole again, Benita.

You have given me the strength

to continue to give hope

to those who need hope

and to continue to try to

save those who can be saved.

And I thank you for that.

Hey.

Where's Chris Lyles?

He passed away last night.

What?

I'm sorry.

He was doing fine.

- Post-op, he was fine.

- He was terminal.

He had six months, at least.

- Where's Macchiarini?

- He's out of the country.

What the hell happened?

Were there complications

with the transplant?

No. The transplant was successful.

He was just sicker

than any of us expected.

But he he wasn't.

It must be something

to do with the trachea.

He was terminal!

Nate, maybe you should take it easy.

You get too attached to your patients.

That won't lead anywhere good.

Maybe you're too detached.

God knows where the

No. Why?

I, um I found something today.

"Pope Francis will be traveling

And? Benita, on your wedding day,

he's going to be in Asunción, Paraguay,

not Italy, not your wedding.

What? No.

The schedule has been out for months.

Hello. Hi, my love.

Yeah, me too. Hey, Paolo?

Um, Kim is here,

and it looks like the Pope

is supposed to be traveling

through South America

during our wedding.

[SIGHS]

Did you know about this?

I'm so sorry you had

to find out this way.

Found out what?

I didn't want to tell you

until I was back in New York.

There were some complications

with the Vatican,

some last-minute scheduling conflicts.

Uh-huh. Well, what does that mean?

I don't want to tell you

this on the phone, okay?

I'm flying back to New York tomorrow.

I'll explain everything in person, okay?

Everything will be fine.

- Trust me.

Okay. I'll see you soon.

- Okay.

- I love you.

Yep. All right.

Bye.

Yeah, I guess there is some

issue with the schedule,

but

he doesn't really sound worried, so

- You just you just found this?

No, no, what I don't understand

is why my best friend

I wasn't trying to find anything, okay?

I was doing my due diligence

Okay, you know what, Kim? I'm done.

I don't I'm tired.

I don't want to have

this conversation tonight.
