Caleb vents about his slip while Malcolm finds out Sam dropped out of the race for Chief. He finds Sam. She confesses she did drop out because she couldn’t hurt him. Just then, his mother appears. Sam admits she did call her. Malcolm isn’t happy. She shouldn’t have come.

Sam and the teamwork on a case involving a teen female track star who keeps passing out. They discover she has a valve disease. She needs a new valve. Lex and Isan meet with a diver named April who almost died of hypothermia. They discover she might have a neurological problem.

Sam speaks with the teen and her mom. They are vegan and eating meat for protein would help immensely. The mother is against it. Sam encouraged them to get through the surgery first. Lex and Isan think their patient has a perivascular disease not a neuro problem.

Griff scrubs in on the teen’s valve replacement. Sam oversees. Griff gets through almost the entire surgery like a pro until the end when he feels dizzy. He doesn’t share this but it is evident something is wrong. He scrubs out. The next day, Griff opts out of surgery. Malcolm’s mom picks up one this. Sam defends Griff that everything is all right.

Lex and Isan’s patient undergoes a stress test. They start to pick up on her need to push herself too far while self-medicating on natural endorphins. Lex runs into Griff. He lies about missing surgery.

Meanwhile, in surgery Sam is forced to use a pig valve on her vegan teen patient. After she runs into Lex who admits Griff is not ready for surgery. She has noticed a few things.

The team’s teen who just recorded a valve is having trouble. Her body is rejecting the valve. She is allergic to it and needs a heart. Lex deals with her patient who ends up having spinal stenosis. She needs surgery.

Sam and Lex confront Griff. Something could be wrong with him. They convince him to submit to blood work. Sam works on her valve replacement case, realizing it’s the supplements the teen is taking that aren’t 100% vegan. It has caused her valve to become dysfunctional. Later, she runs into Malcolm. He tells her about his mom wanting to stick around.

Malcolm tells his mom he wouldn’t mind if she stuck around. She tells Malcolm she is opening up an outside position to run against Griff. He heads to tell Sam. He also tells her she needs to take a break from them to deal with his mom.

Calen addresses the “I love you” with Sam. Sam is speechless. She heads to a quiet place where she finds her dad. He tells her to reconsider running. She knows something is wrong. She forces him to imaging. Lex is there. Griff undergoes an MRI.
