<Tr> <Td_colspan="6"> Shaun and Claire fly to San Francisco Municipal Hospital to get a patient a liver . They can't fly on their way back due to fog and are forced to use a police escort . Problems keep coming one after the other; first, the liver's temperature went above the required maximum, forcing them to have a sudden stop at a local store, where they cool it by submerging it in slush . As they proceed with their journey, Shaun discovers that the liver has a clot . With only two hours of viability left, the duo decide to perform an operation on the way in order to remove the clot and flash the left lobe, to protect it from the ice bath . Back at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital, Chuck, the recipient of the liver, is discovered to have alcohol in his system; a likelihood that he might be moved to the bottom of the list . Chuck later confesses that he actually took a drink on his daughter's graduation . In order to protect its reputation and the future patients, the hospital decides to move Chuck to the bottom of the list . To their dismay, Shaun and Claire arrive back, only to find out that the liver has to be taken to another patient in another hospital . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> </Th> <Td> "Pipes" </Td> <Td> Steven DePaul </Td> <Td> Thomas L.

Dr. Melendez suggests termination of the pregnancy but Shaun interjects by suggesting clotting pre-operatively with an infusion of unfractionated heparin . Things are further complicated when the woman and eventually her husband refuse to terminate the baby . During surgery, there is a complication; a blood clot at the artery in her heart . Dr. Kalu has an idea that they should stop her heart and put her on a bypass machine for the duration of the surgery; that way she won't have an heart attack, which turns out to be successful and the doctors reveal she's carrying a baby boy . With a patient needing a boil lanced, Dr. Melendez assigns Shaun and Dr. Browne on the case, as a punishment for being late . The patient turns out to be a pornographic actress; she doesn't have a boil but a large Bartholin gland abscess and they prep her for surgery the following day . They successfully drain the abscess but discover that she has a Perineal myoma underneath . The fabroid tumor is wrapped around the nerve that facilitates feeling in her genitals . Therefore, the doctors have to remove the tumor but they have to sever the nerve; hence, losing all feeling in her genitals . Shaun comes up the idea of grafting the distal end of the pudendal nerve to the branch of the femoral cutaneous nerve from her inner thigh; this will lead to her losing feeling in her thigh while preserving feeling in her genitals . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 5 </Th> <Td> "Point Three Percent" </Td> <Td> Larry Teng </Td> <Td> David Hoselton </Td> <Td> October 23, 2017 (2017 - 10 - 23) </Td> <Td> 10.39 </Td> </Tr>
