Pete is coming into the emergency on a stretcher, Conrad and Nic are with him. Conrad orders an x-ray stat to see what is going on with him, in the meantime, he does an ultrasound on him.

Meanwhile, Conrad can’t figure out what the underlining cause is with Pete. Nic tells him that when she went into Pete’s kitchen, he only had rice and beans, maybe he is suffering from a vitamin deficiency.
