She tells him that he doesn’t pick up a scalpel until she has cleared him, her hospital, her rules. She says she will be standing by him for his surgery back, and he says he doesn’t need a babysitter. She replies that she doesn’t need a neuro-surgeon with authority issues.

AJ is in surgery, and he gets emotional about leaving. Meanwhile, Nic is looking for Mina, who walks in with items that she returns to everyone that she borrowed. Nic says she was thinking about when they first met, Mina tells her not to do that, she is not dead and this is not a Hallmark movie.

AJ is in the ER with Conrad, his mom is sitting on a stretcher and his dad is with her. Her father says they brought her in because she was dizzy, he thinks she drinks too much caffeine. Her exam seems to be normal, they are waiting for blood results to come back. AJ speaks to Conrad to the side and tells him that his mom can be a bit of a hypochondriac.
Devon tells Mina that he has his first match by the Indian matchmaker who was in the ER last week. Mina grabs his phone to look at her photo, it Dr. Leela Devi who at that moment walks up to Devon and tells him that Rose, his sickle cell patient, had her test results come back and they are normal.
Devon then goes to speak to Rose and tells her about her results, she says she feels good and it’s sad because she knows it is only temporary and she will never escape that for the rest of her life. He tells her that there have been clinical trials, there may be a cure.
Cain is in surgery, Kitt is watching closely. Kitt is needed in the ER, she is reluctant to leave Cain. She tells him that he seems to have made a miraculous recovery, good job.
In the cafeteria, Mina asks AJ how his mom is doing, he says fine, she probably just got herself worked up about his leaving. He tells her that they are now the Beyoncé and Jay-Z of Chastain. AJ gets a page and has to go. Conrad tells AJ’s mom that she is fine, she is sorry that she made such a fuss, made it all about her on AJ’s last day. Conrad tells her it is still important that she came in, especially when things are hard. AJ walks up and his mom tells him that she wants to go home.
In surgery, Cain is having a problem and Dr. Sutton gives advice, but he is not listening. He wants to wait and she tells him that if he does she is going to be brain dead.
Devon asks Conrad if he can fill in for him for an hour, he may have found Rose a clinical trial. Devon says he won’t get Rose involved in anything that he doesn’t believe in, they love Rose and want this to work out for her, Conrad doesn’t trust big pharma.
Nic is walking down the hall with Mina who says that she is going to miss her, but she is not going to cry and break down. Nic says she is going to get the goodbye she wants, she can count on it.
Devon is visiting his friend regarding the clinical trial for Rose. Phillip wants Devon to propose this to Chastain, Devon tells him that if Kitt Voss thinks this is about profit, she will through them out.
AJ takes his parents home, his mother says she is sorry, she just thought about how much she is going to miss him and not how happy he is going to be in this new adventure. His mom starts coughing, and there is blood coming out of her mouth, they are taking her back to Chastain.
AJ is looking at the results of his mother’s chest x-ray, his mother has a tumor in her lung. He says he will do the surgery himself, Conrad says no, it is a conflict of interest. Mina says she will do it. AJ has to go tell his mother. She doesn’t understand, she says she never smoked. He tells her that it could be benign and as far as they can tell, they found it early. She asks him what her chances are, he says biopsy first, Mina will do it, she is the best.
Phillip meets with Kitt, Devon is there as well. Kitt says she wants a cure of course, and Rose deserves the best, but she doesn’t want to get into bed with big pharma. Phillip says they are not big pharma. Kitt agrees to consider it, she discusses it with Randolph.

He says it could work, but he doesn’t look happy. He is about to leave, she tells him to wait. She tells him she is going out to have pretzels and beer, he knows where she will be, he is welcome to be with her.
In surgery, the tumor is worse than they thought. Mina tells them to close up, there is no reason to put her through the rest of the surgery. Outside the operating room, Mina finds AJ, he is sitting down on a bench. The biopsy confirmed it, his mother has stage four lung cancer. He tells her that they both know the average life expectancy is two years. She tells him that he can’t go with her, he has to stay with his mother and she would do anything to be beside him, but she can’t. AJ is crying.
We see AJ with his mom and dad, Mina is watching through the window, she walks around the corner and breaks down, starts crying. Then life at Chastain starts to run through her mind, she calls a taxi. Mina goes up to the café to say goodbye to Nic and everyone is there to say goodbye to her. Kitt sees that Mina looks strange, she gives her a drink, and Mina downs it. Kitt hugs her and asks how they are ever going to replace her.
Conrad tells her that they love her and don’t want her ever to forget them. Mina says that they know exactly who she is and they still cared about her, and she hasn’t had a lot of people like in her life before.
