They can't fly on their way back due to the fog rolling out 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 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.

The boy's name is actually Evan and was brought to the hospital by his parents for reportedly breaking an arm; unbeknownst to Evan, he is in fact suffering from stage 4 Osteosarcoma . Shaun later suspects that he might been misdiagnosed with cancer but indeed suffering from Langerhans cell histiocytosis . In order not to give both Evan and his parents false hopes, Shaun decides to lie, attempting to perform a bone marrow arspiration, but he is caught red - handed by the parents . Subsequently, Evan starts coughing out blood, sending him to the OR . While on the operating table, Dr. Neil Mendelez and Dr. Claire Browne discover that the cancer had metastasized, undoubtable proof that he is indeed suffering with terminal cancer . The other doctors are trying to find a prognosis of a 55 - year old man, brought to the hospital by his estranged son, with an allergy causing him to have convulsions . Dr. Browne later finds out that the man is suffering from Echinococcus, a cyst form of tapeworms . Saddened by Evan's fate, Shaun reads Evan the final few pages of To Kill a Mockingbird, a book of Steve's that he never finished reading before he died . </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 6 </Th> <Td> "Not Fake" </Td> <Td> Michael Patrick Jann </Td> <Td> Simran Baidwan </Td> <Td> October 30, 2017 (2017 - 10 - 30) </Td> <Td> 10.60 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 7 </Th> <Td> "22 Steps" </Td> <Td> David Straiton </Td> <Td> Johanna Lee </Td> <Td> November 13, 2017 (2017 - 11 - 13) </Td> <Td> TBD </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> 8 </Th> <Td> "Apple" </Td> <Td> TBA </Td> <Td> TBA </Td> <Td> November 20, 2017 (2017 - 11 - 20) </Td> <Td> TBD </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> No . </Th> <Th> Title </Th> <Th> Directed by </Th> <Th> Written by </Th> <Th> Original air date </Th> <Th> U.S. viewers (millions) </Th> </Tr>
