But your continuing on

Is not healthy for you

or for the patients.

We will transition

your patients,

And Christopher will be

fully vested

At the end of the next quarter.

It's gonna be okay, dad.

T-The race is over.

You won.

Did you have caffeine today?

No.

I'm a little nervous. It's okay.

It happens. It happens.

We'll just take it again

a little later

When you're more relaxed.

Okay.

All right.

Let's see how this little guy

is doing today.

He's not so little anymore.

Okay.

I'm sure you're anxious

to meet him.

You have no idea.

Oh, I do.

I have three.

Yeah?

Hmm, he's hiding from me.

Hmm.

You know what?

I think this one is broken.

I'm gonna go get

a different one, okay?

Oh.

Okay.

Be right back.

Okay.

All righty.

You got another one?

I do. All right.

Here we go. Take two.

What's going on?

Uh, yeah, I'm gonna go

get the doctor.

All right.

Hey, what's happening?

I will be right back.

Hi, there, Maggie.

Hi.

Just lie back please.

Okay.

What's going on?

Just need to take a better look.

Okay, there's the head.

Great.

What's going on?

What's happening?

Keep breathing.

You're doing fine.

How is he?

Hey, please, please, will you

tell me what's happening?

Dr. Campbell, please, will you

tell me what's happening?

Maggie, I can't find

the baby's heartbeat.

Oh, no. He's fine.

He's just...

He's... He's hiding.

Just check it again.

I did.

The baby doesn't have

a heartbeat.

I'm so sorry, Maggie.

But that's impossible,

Because I can feel him

kicking right now.

I can feel him kicking me.

I'm so sorry.

Okay, just let me see him.

Just let me see him.

Maggie...

just...

Okay, let me see.

Let me see him on the screen.

Maggie...

do it so I can see him on the screen.

Maggie...

your baby is dead.

No! Come on! No!

Do you understand

what I'm saying?

Did you... Did you come

with anyone?

No!

You want us

to call your husband?

He's in a meeting!

I'm so sorry.

Please!

Be...

Okay. Okay.

No! This is crazy!

No!

Okay, okay.

Hold on a minute.

Just hold on a minute.

We can just try it again.

Just give me a minute

with him, okay.

Just give me a minute now.

Come on, baby!

Come on!

If you ever set me up like that,

I'm disemboweling you

with a trowel.

Love you, too, dad.

How'd it go?

Hi, Mr. And Mrs. Royal.

I'm Corina Nevelle,

the hospital social worker.

Do you mind if I call you

Maggie and Aaron?

That's fine.

I know this is very

difficult to talk about,

Especially now, but I have to

ask you some questions

About you and your baby.

Is that okay?

Mm-Hmm.

Is your baby a boy or girl?

Boy.

Is it your first?

Did you pick a name out for him?

Arthur.

That's such a strong name.
