NARRATOR: Previously on The Mob Doctor:
As long as you're in Chicago, I own you. That's the deal.
Downtown should be ours.
We're about to make history. Better be on the right side.
AL: But downtown is too high-profile.
Like I said, I ain't interested.
What do you wanna know?
Did you kill my dad?
I swear to you, on my life, on your mother's life, I did not kill your father.
At the end of the day,
me and Constantine, we're fathers first.
Constantine has kids?
Who the hell is this guy?
It's been a long time.
I never forget a face. Then look closer.
It's me, Dad.

CONSTANTINE: It's good to see you, Luke.
I heard about your mom's passing when I was in the joint.
I'm very sorry.
Yeah? I guess your condolence card was lost in the mail.
Well, we haven't seen each other in 25 years.
What do you need?
Um, I'm in trouble. That I figured.
I'm in real estate down in Miami, South Beach mostly.
I figured I'd go big while rates were low, take advantage.
Ambitious. That's a good thing.
[SIGHS]
I got my hands on a beachfront property, big enough I could put up 10 units.
It was great until I got screwed on the permits.
The banks wouldn't even look at me. Let me guess.
Somebody offered you a private loan.
I was desperate. I was supposed to have three months to pay.
Oldest trick in the book. Wait for you to spend the money,
then they call in the loan at high interest.
It turns out the money I borrowed belongs to the Nogales cartel.
[♪♪♪]
CONSTANTINE: Yeah, well, you're right, kid.
You're in a lot of trouble.
They broke into my house. I didn't know what to do. I just ran.
All right, you let me look into it.
In the meantime, why don't you stay at my house? You'll be safer.
All due respect, I'm not looking for a father.
I'm just looking for help.
I understand.
Thank you.
Luke.
I'll check back with you tomorrow. Look, be careful.
He's really your kid, huh?
Yeah. He's in the weeds with the Nogales cartel.
I want him protected. Stay with him, Gio. Don't let him out of your sight.
[♪♪♪]
Tino, the Nogales cartel, you know this could be a problem, right?
He's my blood, Stavos. What can I do?
Tell Trapani I want a meeting.
What's with all the pregnant people? Guy collapsed in a Lamaze class.
We're from the Trauma team. I'm Dr. Wilcox, this is Dr. Devlin.
Hi, I'm Bethany. This is Stuart, my husband.
We were just learning baby CPR and he just passed out.
[MONITOR BEEPING]
Pressure's 83/40. Probably vasovagal.
Hang a liter. Any chronic illnesses?
No. Medications?
No, nothing. We're having a natural pregnancy.
Um, yeah, well, both of us.
[MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY]
Looks like wide-complex tachycardia, maybe v-tach.
Well, that would explain the fainting. Start an amio drip.
OLIVIA: Systolic's 68. GRACE: We need that amio fast.
He's too unstable.
I think we should cardiovert him.
Push the etomidate.
[♪♪♪]
Listen, Bethany. We're gonna give him a small electrical shock
to reset his heart to a normal rhythm.
Go wait outside. We'll talk to you as soon as we can.
No, I...
[SPEAKS INDISTINCTLY]
[DEVICE POWERING UP]
GRACE: Paddles. OLIVIA: Clear.
[EKG BEEPING THEN FLATLINING]
Amp of epi.
GRACE: Come on.
[♪♪♪]
Tino, you brought me out here, you don't even bring those biscotti.
Keep eating crap like that, it's gonna take a dozen pallbearers
to put you in the ground. How's business?
Can't complain. So?
Word is, you're in bed with the Nogales cartel.
I gave them a deal to traffic junk on the Eisenhower. Why?
I got a guy close to me. He's underwater with them.
I'd like you to make a phone call, arrange a sit-down for me.
Who's the guy? My son.
Ah. The kid you had with that broad from Hazel Crest.
Yeah. Look, I appreciate you doing me this favor.
No problem. I'll do the best I can. You tell them I'll cover everything.
[PHONE RINGING]
Ah.
Is something wrong?
It's my girl.
She's got some weird ﬂu kicking her ass the past few weeks.
She can barely get out of bed.
You know, I got a doctor who makes house calls.
You want me to bring her over? Really?
I mean, that's how it works, huh? You help me, I help you.
I shouldn't have rushed into cardioversion.
We should have waited for amio or tried adenosine.
That could have sent him straight into v-fib if he wasn't going already.
First rule of wide-complex tachycardia, Grace: Do no harm.
This is my fault.
What do we say to his wife? We made a judgment call.
We both thought it was the right one.
How's Stuart?
Please sit down.
Mrs. Maslan, I am so sorry. Your husband died.
[♪♪♪]
On, my God.
I wanna see him.
[SIGHS]
He's still warm.
We tried to restart his heart, but he didn't respond.
Why couldn't you help him?
We tried everything we could.
Stuart had a severely unstable heart rhythm.
Sometimes when that happens, you just can't restore it.
Is there anyone that we can call?
[GRUNTS]
Where am I?
[♪♪♪]
[BEEPING]
[♪♪♪]
I hear you folks had quite an exciting morning.
One minute we're at Lamaze, and then apparently I died.
[COUGHING]
Excuse me. No evidence of infarction.
Other than this cold, he's perfectly healthy.
Oh, he is. Or was.
How did this happen?
There are several cases in medical literature
of what's called 'Lazarus syndrome.'
People pronounced dead who come back to life
after attempts at resuscitation have failed. Its extremely rare.
In 30 years of practice, I've never seen a case,
which is why I'd like to borrow my doctors for a moment,
if you don't mind. No, of course.
So, what exactly happened in there? We have no idea.
WHITE: What criteria did you use to call the code?
Over 30 minutes in asystole, pupils fixed and dilated
and no cardiac activity on ultrasound.
Hmm. That does sound pretty dead. His rhythm is still unstable.
OLIVIA: No evidence of ischemia.
We can't figure out why his heart stopped or restarted.
All right, order a stat coronary CT and echo
and make sure our Lazarus doesn't return to the cave.
[PHONE CHIMING]
Answer it. I got this.
[♪♪♪]
[SIGHS]
Listen, Grace. The guy we're gonna go see,
he's been a friend of mine a long time,
and he might mention something to you that I'd rather you hear from me.
I have a son.
His name is Luke.
And I saw him today for the first time in 25 years.
Not exactly close, huh?
I love my son.
And I tried to do right by him and his mom.
And I guess she just got tired of the life and took off for Florida.
She made me promise to stay away from him.
And I can't tell you how hard that was. You know, birthdays, holidays,
not to pick up the phone.
But I kept my word.
You gonna try and reconnect? No, it's boo late.
He just wants me to dig him out of a jam.
It's never too late till you're dead.
Look who's the optimist.
Just means if it matters to you, it might matter to him.
Welcome, Tino.
CONSTANTINE: Mr. Trapani, this is Dr. Devlin.
Hi, I'm Al. Thanks for coming. Where's your patient?
Take the doc up to Chloe's room. I'll be right there.
I ﬂoated a message to the cartel that you're willing to pay off Luke's debt.
And? It's working its way up the food chain.
There's something you're not telling me, Al.
They've already taken punitive measures. They've ordered a hit on Luke.
The guy they hired is boots down in Chicago.
It's Diego Balt.
[♪♪♪]
He never misses, Tino. Are you saying it's too late?
I'll do the best I can, I give you my word.
Bobby, call Gio. Tell him to find Luke, we're on our way.
I'm on it.
I'll send a car for Grace.
Well, got no redness. That's something.
Glands feel normal. I just hurt all over.
GRACE: Your temperature's fine.
So, what's wrong with her, doc? Some kind of bad ﬂu or something?
I'm not really sure yet. Any chronic medical issues or surgeries?
I had a thing or two done to improve my looks when I was dancing.
You know, normal stuff. Heh. GRACE: Mm.
So, what kind of surgeries are we talking about?
Uh, nose, tummy, the girls, of course.
And your implants, are they silicone or saline?
Uh- I don't know.
They were a Christmas present to me from one of my regulars.
Don't look a gift horse in the mouth, right?
Why?
Silicone leaks, they can cause fibromyalgia or immune disorders.
Do you mind if I check?
Half of Chicago's seen my boobs, so knock yourself out.
All right.
Okay.
[CLEARS THROAT]
The right one's smaller. Has it always been that way?
No.
We're gonna need to remove them and run some tests.
The sooner the better. I don't know.
Hey, hey, hey. Look at me. It's nothing to worry about.
We gotta fix whatever's making you sick.
Okay.
I'll call the hospital and book an OR.
[♪♪♪]
[COMPUTER BEEPING]
[BEEPING RAPIDLY]
[SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]
You almost here, boss?
He's heading north on Franklin. He just passed Superior.
No, I got him.
All right. All right, come up through the alley between Chicago and Superior.
I'm gonna grab him, all right? All right. I got him. All right.
Luke. Luke! What are you doing here?
Your father sent me. I don't need a babysitter.
GIO: Hey, buddy, I just do as I'm told, all right?
Get in.
You scared the crap out of me.
[TIRES SCREECHING]
You been made, kid. What?
Did you bring your cell phone? Of course.
Let me see it.
LUKE: Hey. CONSTANTINE: You wanna get killed?
That's almost what just happened.
This guy after you is a serious player. I gotta get you someplace safe.
You can't make this go away?
You wanna hate me, I'll learn to live with that.
But if you're gonna get through this, you're gonna do exactly what I tell you.
[♪♪♪]
Where's Al?
He's just down the hall.
Hi, Chloe. I'm Dr. Robinson. I'm gonna be scrubbing in.
Are you sure we have to do this? What if something goes wrong?
If you have a silicone leak, we have to take care of it.
Don't worry, we're not gonna let anything happen.
Okay.
Let's do it. GRACE: IV line is in.
Just make sure that the new girls are up to Al's standards, okay?
Absolutely.
[♪♪♪]
WHITE: So you can see in this model of a healthy heart,
how the electrical current ﬂows
in a regular pattern down well-defined pathways.
In this model, Stuart's heart,
the contractions and electrical impulses
are erratic and disorganized.
He hasn't slept in two weeks. I thought it was the excitement.
Insomnia? Nightmares.
I keep dreaming that I'm holding our son,
and I drop him down a well.
We don't have a well. I've never even seen a well.
It's- lt's pitiful.
Oh, no, not at all.
Becoming a father for the first time can be pretty terrifying.
So maybe that's what it is. He's stressed out over the baby.
I don't think so, Mrs. Maslan.
It's as if Stuart's electrical pathways are dying,
and our tests haven't been able to pinpoint why.
So he could die again?
Until we understand the etiology, that's hard to predict.
All right, so it looks like we're gonna be here for a little while.
WHITE: Yeah. Thanks.
Order an EP study and switch him to sotalol.
Yes, sir.
You like a challenge, Dr. Wilcox. Looks like you've got one.
[SIGHS]
[♪♪♪]
[INAUDIBLE DIALOGUE]
How is this possible? I thought Chloe's symptoms were from a silicone leak.
BRETT: Well, those are definitely saline. GRACE: Yeah.
Look, good news: She needed the implants replaced,
and I think we did an excellent job.
Look, she probably just has a virus or something.
She didn't have a fever. Her symptoms aren't improving.
We're missing something.
Doctors, she's bleeding.
Is it from the incision site?
[♪♪♪]
Her urinary tract is hemorrhaging. Get her to the ICU.
Type and cross for four and get a stat urogram. Come on.
Let's go.
All right. You got enough food for a few days.
Now, don't leave the room until you get the okay from me.
Maybe I should have just called the cops.
That's the last thing you should have done. Settle down.
Trapani's working his connections. I got Stavos reaching out
to one of the camel's top lawyers in Miami.
Everything's gonna be fine. They already found me once.
Nobody's gonna find you unless you do something stupid,
and you're not gonna do that.
Relax. We'll watch something, we'll eat something. lt'll be good.
You want a couple guys outside? No. The lower the profile, the better.
[PHONE RINGING]
Al, hows your broad? She's okay.
She had some kind of complication. They're doing a scan now.
Well, she's in good hands. Thanks.
So, uh, I heard back from our compadres.
So, what's the deal?
Can we buy out of this with a bag of cash?
Money ain't gonna do it, Tino.
Guy I mentioned before, the one they sent to Chicago,
soon as he gels hired, he goes dark.
There's no way of canceling the job.
I'm sorry, Tino. I know you wanna protect your kid,
but these guys, they don't play nice.
All right, thanks, Al. Message received.
He couldn't do anything, could he?
Look, it's not over, kid.
I gotta get out of here. Sit down and relax.
You said you could fix this. And I will.
You're a bully who scares people for a living.
I screwed up and thought you could help, but this is insane.
You're not thinking. I am.
Now they know I'm your son, they can find me.
I got a buddy in Alberta I can stay with. I'm out of here.
You think you're gonna be safe in Canada? They're gonna find you.
So I'm just supposed to stick around and let you play dad? I don't think so.
This medal that you're wearing on your chest,
tell me about it.
It was my mother's. She got it from her grandfather.
No, Luke, she didn't.
That medal belonged to my grandfather,
and I gave it to your mother.
She wouldn't have passed it on to you unless she thought there was
something right about the man who gave it to her.
No. That's a lie. She knew what you were.
Look, it's not that easy.
I mean, who I am, it may have been a liability back then.
But now who I am is gonna save your life.
[♪♪♪]
Hey. Hows Mr. Maslan?
Not good.
EP studies were a bust.
I can't figure this out.
What about the other tests? Inconclusive.
No structural abnormalities on his echo, normal coronary CT.
Electrolytes?
Calcium, potassium, magnesium, phos, normal.
What about trying a different antiarrhythmic?
All maxed out.
Do you realize I'm gonna be the first resident
to have a patient die on me twice?
[MONITOR BEEPING RAPIDLY]
Something's wrong.
[♪♪♪]
Pressure's dropping. Looks like electrical alternans. Ultrasound.
Damn it. CPR must have caused bleeding into the pericardium.
I need an 18-gauge needle and a syringe.
I don't understand.
We need to drain ﬂuid from around Stuart's heart.
Everything you've done has made him worse.
I'm sorry, but we have to remove the blood or his heart will shop beefing.
Okay. ready?
GRACE: You got it. Come on, Stuart. Slay alive.
EDDIE: Gio, long time no see. Where you been?
You know, Eddie, working hard, trying to keep the lights on.
How's your dad's knee? Oh, it's good. It's good, thanks.
You know, he says it throbs like hell
but he's doing these aquatic classes and that's helping.
[PHONE RINGING]
He's hanging out with a bunch of old broads, that's really what's helping. Oh.
I'm sorry, Eddie. One second. What's up, Constantine?
No, your kid sent me to get some stuff because they don't have cable
at the Esquire Motel.
Like skin mags and stuff.
All right, I got it.
I got it. I'll be back in an hour.
What's that about? Aw...
It's like all of a sudden, I'm a freaking babysitter.
He's all wound up. Don't ask. I'm gonna take this.
Yeah, I'll take it a Trib too.
All right.
There you go, Eddie. Keep the change. Good to see you.
Thanks.
[♪♪♪]
I'm sorry. I had an emergency with the Lazarus syndrome patient.
Is he okay? Barely.
Olivia's really beefing herself up over it.
In other news, ahem, check this out. Chloe's scans came in.
It's a kidney tumor?
It's definitely a tumor, but it is not on her kidney.
It's in her prostate.
What are you talking about?
She was born...a he.
GRACE: Seminal vesicles, bilateral ligation of the vas deferens.
She's a transgender female. Explains the multiple surgeries.
And why she didn't want a doctor.
If she was a man I'd have missed it. Too young for prostate cancer.
Well, not if she's taking estrogen as part of her post-op protocol.
Well, I booked an OR. At the rate she's bleeding
this tumor's gotta come out fast. I'll go talk to her.
Hey.
I can't tell under the bandages. How do they look?
They're gonna be great.
Is, uh, Al around?
He went to get food. Do you want me to call him?
No, that's okay.
Um...
Chloe. Mm-hm.
Your CT came back,
and it looks like you have cancer...
in your prostate.
[♪♪♪]
That's not possible. Unfortunately, it is.
It explains why you're peeing blood. I'm a woman.
Yeah, you are.
But at one point, physically, you were a man.
Your CT showed remnants of your male reproductive tact,
including your prostate with a tumor.
I thought I got rid of that part of me and now here it is,
hurting me all over again.
I guess you can't keep a secret forever, huh?
I guess not.
Look, we're gonna get you through this, okay?
It is serious, but with surgery and chemo, you're gonna do great.
No, you don't understand. I told you it was a secret.
Al doesn't know.
Sweetie, your cancer's pretty advanced.
We gotta get you into surgery. How?
I mean, if Al finds out, he'll kill us both.
[♪♪♪]
[TYPING ON KEYBOARD]
Hey.
So the, uh, surgery went well. How you feeling?
A little out of it.
Two surgeries, one on top of the other, what do you expect?
How'd she do?
We were able to completely remove the abdominal tumor.
That's great news. Thank you.
How you doing, honey? Good.
But we ran into an unexpected complication.
When we got in there, we saw that the tumor had invaded Chloe's uterus...
so we had to remove it.
So you mean...
I can't have kids?
I'm so sorry.
It's okay, honey.
As long as you're healthy, that's all that matters.
We decide we wanna have kids one day,
we can just adopt, right?
What do you say, Dr. Devlin?
Definitely.
All right, I'll leave you two alone.
Thank you for everything.
[LABORED BREATHING]
BETHANY: Look at him.
He's barely breathing.
Unfortunately the procedure seems to have complicated the arrhythmia.
So you made him worse again. Bethany, baby, stop. Stop.
I need you.
He needs you.
I see...
lights...
[♪♪♪]
Like people talk about. No.
What kind of light, Mr. Maslan?
Halos.
Golden halos. Get the ophthalmoscope.
What is it?
Yellow halos may be a sign of toxicity.
You said he'd been having nightmares?
Yeah, the past couple of weeks.
Fundi are normal.
You said you were having a natural pregnancy,
but did Stuart take anything herbal for his cold?
Just a cough suppressant I got him. I think I have it.
Foxglove. Grab the digibind.
How much has he been taking? I don't know, whenever he coughs.
Foxglove is an herbal version of a very potent Western medicine
called digoxin.
An overdose can lead to a severe heart arrhythmia,
nightmares, and visual changes.
[MONITOR BEEPING]
I just wanted us to be healthy for the baby.
The arrhythmia is resolving. Yes, it is.
Well done, Dr. Wilcox.

Hey, Chloe. You're looking good.
I don't feel so bad, you know, considering.
I'll meet you back in the room.
I just wanna thank Dr. Devlin one-on-one.
Two minutes. Okay.
I need to know the truth about Chloe's cancer.
Well, like I said, she has-- Don't lie to me, Grace.
I know about her. I've known about her for a while,
and I still love her.
Then it's none of my business, but why don't you just tell her you know?
You're right. It's none of your business.
I'll tell her when I'm ready and under my own terms.
Do I make myself clear?
Yeah.
Of course.
If you tell Constantine or anyone else--
Hey, you don't threaten me, okay?
If I couldn't keep a secret, I'd already be dead.

Mother, child and Lazarus are all doing very well.
That's great.
And I prescribed a cocktail for Olivia, who's very much relieved.
It's been quite a day. Yeah.
Just when you think you've seen it all, here comes the curve ball.
Well, life is full of surprises, isn't it?
Well...
good night, Grace.
I'm telling you, Constantine played it like a chess master.
Had me drop the location right in front of Eddie Russo. Heh.
Russo. That creep's always shooting his mouth off.
Exactly. Within an hour, I get word from my guy at Tijuana Grill,
Balt's on the move.
Eddie Russo isn't the only one with a big mouth.
You think it's a joke to kill a member of the Nogales cartel?
I left a message. Tell him Mr. Alexander and I
need to speak with him urgently. That's right. Mm-hm. Thank you.
The Nogales lawyer, yeah, is calling us back any minute, the son of a bitch.
I just spoke to Trapani.
The cartel agreed to a truce until I can have a sit-down with them.
That's great, boss. CONSTANTINE: We'll see.
I got my stuff from the car. I'm gonna take off.
Listen, I'd feel much better about things if you stayed at the house with me.
I don't wanna seem ungrateful. I'm just not comfortable with that.
But thank you for what you did.
Look, you're not gonna leave town, are you?
No, I'm gonna check into a hotel for a couple days.
Whatever you do, don't check into the hotel under your own name.
Pay in cash and don't let anybody in the room till you hear from me.
Yeah, I got it.
I'm glad you're gonna stick around, Luke.
You know, it gives us a chance to maybe get to know each other.
Sure.
Look, I wanna meet Grace.
Yeah, my mom told me about her before she died.
I think it's time we met.
[♪♪♪]
I understand.
Listen, I'm gonna handle this, but I want you to promise me,
you're gonna keep your head down. Be very careful.
Okay, I will.

Give me the keys to the car, Bobby. Boss, you want me to drive?
No, it's something I gotta do alone. Tino, what are you doing?
I'm going to the Devlins'.
Something I should have taken care of a long time ago.
[PHONE RINGING]
Yes. Yes, Mr. Buchman, good to hear from you.
I called regarding a business misunderstanding
with your clients from Nogales.
Yes, I know Al Trapani has already reached out,
but we would like to go on record direc--
You're certain about that?
I need to call you back, sir. Thank you.
[BEEPING]
[PHONE RINGING]
Answer, answer.
[BEEP OVER PHONE]
Tino, the Nogales lawyer called back. We have a problem.
[ROCK MUSIC PLAYING INDISTINCTLY OVER SPEAKERS]
Trapani lied about the cartel. There is no truce.
Trapani never even passed on your offer to pay Luke's debt.
If they find out you killed their man without trying to negotiate,
this is going to get ugly fast.
Tino, call me as soon as you can.
[SIGHS]
Oh. Hey. I thought I heard someone come in.
How you doing? Good.
I already ate, but I can heat you up some leftovers.
Yeah, that sounds nice. Thank you.
I'm just gonna take a shower real quick. Okay.
You okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
Okay. Love you.
I love you boo.
Is Ray watching out there, or is he just sitting there?
He's watching, eating the pastries too. Look. This broad lies in the interview,
says those are real.
You paid money for this thing?
You can go online and see these broads for nothing.
There's something to be said about old-school.
Did one of you move Constantine's phone book?
Uh, yeah, it's with the orders.
