It was just another crazy night at Angels Memorial Hospital when suddenly alarms were blaring because of a “Red On Blue”. Cops had been injured in the line of duty and so the hospital where they were to be treated had to be put on high alert in case of revenge shootings.
However Rorish appeared to know one of the officers personally. So she was able to talk Tom down while her residents looked on his partner Scott. For it while it looked the bullet had only grazed Scott’s head, he was still somehow bleeding out from internal injuries and needed to be scanned in order for the doctors to locate the bleeding.
And without Tom breathing down their necks, Hudson was eventually able to stabilize Scott. Though he like many of the others at the hospital wanted to know how Rorish knew the officer. Thus he ended up asking her the second they were both able to break away from their patients.
But she hadn’t been offended. As it turns out Tom was an old family friend and by the way she said it Hudson was able to glean that Tom had also known her family as well. So he wisely dropped the questions and did his best to assist the hospital in a “Red on Blue”.
The waiting room was full of police officers and the media were outside doing their best to get information out of the Chief. Therefore the hospital was dealing with more mayhem than what they had experienced during their epidemic last week. And that in addition to everything else that was going on, Pineda was close to collapsing from all the stress.
Not only had she been put on a young man named Victor’s case but Victor’s situation resonated with her. Victor had come in after he tried to kill himself. And it seems the reason he did what he did was because his father wouldn’t accept the fact that he had feelings for another boy.
And as a gay woman herself, she understood the pressure that Victor was under. Though she was luckier because she clearly had the support that Victor lacked. So when Victor was later declared braindead, Pineda felt for the young man’s crush who had showed up at the hospital hoping to see him.
The doctor wished she could have allowed it but Victor’s father still wanted to keep the teenagers apart. And that meant Pineda’s hands were tied.
Though that didn’t stop Pineda from trying to talk some sense into the father. Even when it went explicitly against Gunthrie’s order. Gunthrie had apparently been where Victor’s father was seeing as his own wife had killed herself. So he didn’t think it was right for Pineda to interfere with out Victor was being grieved over.
But earlier, Pineda had run into her own ex and she had found out that the other woman was both pregnant and had cancer. So saying goodbye became incredible important to Pineda and didn’t just want to stop pushing for Victor’s friend’s Jamal.
However the shooter in the cop shooting had been found and Rorish had to bring Hudson in on the case. As situation went, the shooter was bleeding out because multiple gunshot wounds and that made his situation dire. Say needed emergency surgery first dire. And unfortunately there had been someone else up for surgery – Tom.
So a decision needed to be made on should get the next surgery because if the shooter went up then that Tom was most likely going to die and if Tom went up then the shooter was going to die. And that was a choice that Rorish just couldn’t make.
Tom had been the one to drag her family out of the wreckage so he was the one that saved Rorish’s life. And that’s how the two were able to form a bond. Yet there seemed to be some mystery surrounding how the cops were shot. Tom had at first said he didn’t get a good look at the guy but then later changed his story to imply the shooter was a gangbanger.
And, well, that had Jesse on edge. He didn’t necessarily believe the shooting was as clean-cut as Tom had stated. So he made Rorish doubt her friend and she had gotten in an argument with Tom right before the shooter showed up.
Plus Pineda had initially disagreed to place priority on the shooter rather than cop. So she took had to get her head in straight.
Although the new guy, Cole Gunthrie stepped in and he declared the shooter was too unstable to be moved so he did their best to work on him and he ended up flat-lining in the ER. And so Tom was taken up to surgery. Where he was finally able to get the help he needed.
And afterwards, he told Rorish the truth. The guy he shot had been shooting him because he took money from a guy he wasn’t supposed to. So it was no liking out the media was making out to be while they waited outside.
It was not another racially-charged shooting.
But the scenario did ultimately push Pineda into getting Victor’s father to admit Jamal into Victor’s room. She had told the older man that the only thing that mattered was that there were two people grieving. So she got him to see the light and later she talked again with her ex. And offer the other woman the support she needed.
THE END!
