[gentle music]
I hate these things.
Need a hand?
No.
The McCormicks told Mom and Dad they're
gonna bring a huge gift.
The grill?
I doubt it. [chuckles]
It's probably something that Charlotte
put on the registry anyway.
[Elijah sighs]
What's with you today?
Nothing.
You want me to call Dad over?
No.
We have a little time still.
I know.
Still got time.
You want me to get you a drink?
Yeah, sure.
All right. [chuckles]
Are you feeling okay, Elijah?
Yeah, always.
[Elijah clears throat]
I'll, uh.
I'll be right back.
Hey, Dad.
Elijah seems tense.
Yeah, I noticed.
Are you sure you don't know what's going on with him?
Just because we're twins doesn't mean
I can read his mind.
You look beautiful, Charlotte, but listen,
I don't think I can go through with this.
[suspenseful music]
And I know you feel the same way.
[Charlotte] What?
We don't really love each other.
But Elijah, I do love you.
That's why I said yes.
You don't have to say that.
I mean it.
Where is this coming from?
How long have you felt like this?
A while.
Then I kept pushing back what I was feeling.
I mean, there's so much I want to do and focus on my career.
I'm on the rise,
and could be a senior manager soon and. [sighs]
I got to thinking,
I'm not ready, and I didn't want to hurt you.
Do you need more time?
I don't think I do.
Well, what changed?
Is there someone else?
Did I do something?
No, no, no, nothing like that.
No, it's just. [sighs]
I don't want to make a mistake we'll both have to live with.
You understand, don't you?
[gentle music]
[bright music]
Thank you.
Hey, Abigail.
Still on for lunch?
I'm ready when you are.
Oh.
Any changes in bed five?
Some pain complaints.
He's asking for a higher dosage.
Take your time, no rush.
Thanks.
Hey Mark, I hear the pain isn't letting up.
Yeah.
Well, where do you think you're at on the pain scale?
Probably about a six.
I'm sorry.
Well, I want to take a look at your blood work, okay?
Now is the pain staying in the same area?
Yeah. [machines beeping]
[gentle music]
Okay, that's a Berry Blast smoothie and a Protein Mango.
9.82.
- Oh. - Got it.
[Charlotte] There you go.
[gentle music]
Still carrying this around?
Yeah, I haven't quite figured out what to do with it.
- Sell it? - Here's that.
Thank you.
Your order will be right out.
I've been going over personnel files.
Ooh, that's exciting.
[laughs] Did you know 20% of doctors
haven't taken their vacation time in nearly two years?
Guess who that includes?
I'll get to it.
You realize it's paid time off?
Go somewhere exotic and relax.
Uh, but I had a nice trip planned
and you know what happened.
So, the honeymoon didn't pan out.
You could still enjoy a break.
My patients need me.
It's not like you've formed
lifelong friendships with them.
You have a revolving door of people who need care
for a while and then they move on.
And it never ends so why should I?
So you don't burn out.
I'm not burned out.
You never took time to deal with the wedding and Elijah.
I don't need to.
There you go.
- Thank you. - Thanks.
So, who were the other doctors
who haven't taken a vacation?
Oh, the other workaholics?
You can probably guess.
Dr. Cranston.
For sure.
Charlotte.
[playful music]
Elijah.
How are you?
I'm fine.
You?
Good.
Yeah, we're just gonna grab a bite to eat.
You want to join us?
I'm good.
My parents keep asking about you.
I'm sure they'd love it if you stopped by again.
Thanks.
I'll try to keep in touch.
With them.
Good.
It was good to see you.
You take care, all right?
[suspenseful music]
- Wow. - Yeah.
- Are you? - I'm fine.
Have you seen him much since?
Yeah, I run into him every now and then.
Too often.
[Nurse] Things will calm down though.
Yeah, but not in time.
It's just not gonna work out.
Can you back out of it?
It's volunteer.
I mean, it's my time on the line.
Everything all right?
James is gonna cancel the medical mission
he's supposed to go on.
Come on?
Don't make me sound like a villain.
Why the change?
My dad took a bad turn.
His heart again?
Yeah, I can't be on the other side
of the world if things go south.
You're gonna leave that medical foundation
in such a lurch.
It's not like I'm vacationing instead.
What foundation is it?
They're out of the Philippines.
Small outfit.
I think they started a year or two ago.
But I had a friend who went and it sounds pretty cool.
Too bad you can't go.
I will try to go another time.
Have you told 'em yet?
[James] Nope, but I will.
Don't cancel.
Okay, why not?
[gentle music]
I am using my vacation time.
Oh, good.
When, are you going anywhere fun?
Well, I am taking Dr. Lewis's place
with the Ariana Sallow Medical Foundation,
and I leave in a week.
Okay.
Why?
You were the one telling me to go somewhere.
Well, I'm not complaining.
I have to try to cover your shift.
Not really.
Dr. Lewis can take my schedule since he's not going.
Okay, are you sure you want to do this?
It's four weeks.
I was thinking you should relax, not work.
I know, but treating people halfway
around the world sounds good.
Much better than dwelling on the past.
When you put it that way.
Bring me a souvenir.
Of course.
[upbeat music]
[plane tires screeching]
[upbeat music]
[birds chirping]
[tires rumbling]
[birds chirping] [tires rumbling]
[upbeat music]
[gentle music]
[bird chirping]
[door clattering] [door slamming]
Is this the right place?
Ariana Sallow Medical Foundation?
Yep.
You found us. [laughs]
Welcome, I'm Henry.
Hi, Charlotte Hudson.
Thank you so much for coming.
Thank you for having me.
Sorry, I was expecting the address to take me
to some medical clinic or something.
[laughs] No, no, not here.
Yeah, the foundation's still pretty young
and a little smaller than others you may be familiar with.
But we still make an impact.
I'm sure.
Listen, I hope you don't mind,
but I do have the visiting doctors
stay with me in my home here.
It makes it easier leaving for clinics
on those early mornings, hope that's okay.
Sounds great.
Perfect.
Well, let me grab your stuff and I'll show you around.
Thank you.
[sighs] Wow, this place is incredible.
I know, thank you.
Yeah, my wife, Ariana and I lived here.
This was her family home.
And when she passed away, I just.
I didn't want to let go of the memories.
I'm sorry.
So the foundation is named after her then?
Yeah, my inspiration.
A lot of the people around here
don't have access to doctors.
Sometimes it's the distance, especially those out on some
of those less-populated islands.
Or they simply don't know when
to get help until it's critical.
You'll see.
We'll go around to different villages.
We'll set up a makeshift clinic for a day or two
and then onto the next one.
Sounds busy.
Yeah.
Well, it's a lot of constant work,
and that's just bringing doctors out
for a month every quarter.
I retired from my career to focus solely on this,
but honestly, I don't know that it's enough.
Well, I'm sure it's a great start.
So, how many doctors are here right now?
Three.
Yourself, an ophthalmologist and a dentist.
In fact, I think one of them's recently arrived
from your neck of the woods.
Over here.
[gentle music]
This is Dr. Solis, our ophthalmologist.
Oh, hi ya.
Charlotte Hudson.
Maya, lovely to meet you.
You too.
[playful music]
[air whooshing]
Elijah?
What are you doing here?
No, no, this is our volunteer dentist.
Dr. Seth Adkins.
Seth.
Hi, Charlotte.
You two know each other?
Yeah.
I didn't expect to see you here.
Me neither.
I mean, you being here.
Well, good to see you.
Okay, well, your room is just up this way.
I can take ya.
[playful music]
[sighs] Long story.
Yeah, I bet.
All the more reason why you need to tell me immediately.
Uh.
Charlotte's a friend, kind of.
Ex-girlfriend?
No.
What, a sister of some evil dentist, you know back home?
[Seth laughs]
She's my twin brother's former fiancee.
Oh.
Yeah.
I hope this will be acceptable.
It's wonderful, thank you.
Okay, so you've got all day tomorrow to get rested up,
get settled in and then we'll go visit a clinic
not far from here day after that.
Sounds good.
Alrighty.
Oh, and be sure to enjoy the island while you're here.
Get out, see some sights, relax a little when you can,
you know.
Thanks, but I'm here to work, not vacation.
Well, everyone comes for a reason.
Though often for different reasons than they think.
[birds trilling]
[gentle music]
[people chattering]
[Charlotte sighs]
[adventurous music]
Hey!
I'm going to go grab some lunch.
No, no, no, I got food for everyone.
Come, eat.
- You sure? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thanks.
[sighs] Can you believe this view?
No.
Still hasn't worn off.
How long have you been here?
Three days.
I came a little bit earlier, wanted to get my bearings.
And then Dr. Adkins came in the day after,
and now you're here.
So, where are you from?
Auckland.
London originally, but, how 'bout you?
Georgia.
Is this your first medical mission?
No, I've done one in Latin America and one in Africa,
which was amazing.
You done one before?
This is my first one.
[gasps] You're a newbie.
You will love it.
It's probably different from anything that you're used to,
but it's a challenge, in a good way.
If that makes sense.
Good, I could use a good challenge.
Seth said you guys know each other.
Ah, what did he say?
Only that you were his brother's ex-fiancee.
Only, huh?
[laughs] Yeah.
Elijah broke things off on our wedding day.
No.
Was it another woman?
That's what I thought at first,
but apparently that wasn't it.
I guess he just didn't love me anymore.
Oh, come on, he had to have said more than that.
Nope, not really.
[sighs] I'm sorry, that is.
That's awful.
Yeah, that's why I came here, to get away from him.
All of it.
But it's hard to do that when I keep
seeing him everywhere I turn.
Speaking of.
Hey guys.
Come and eat, we've got loads of food.
[Seth] Thanks.
[playful music]
So I hear we might be going up North tomorrow.
Any idea what it's like?
No, I mean, I did a little exploring round here
but that was about it.
[Charlotte sighs]
Mosquitoes are out already.
Think I'll eat inside.
Oh, all right.
See ya.
[sighs] I'm so sorry.
I just wasn't prepared for this.
It'll be all right.
I mean, at least he seems like a nice guy.
[Charlotte sighs]
[gentle music]
[upbeat music]
Good morning.
Well, good morning.
You two sleep okay?
Great, thanks.
Sorry to keep you all waiting.
Not a problem.
Shall we go?
[trunk door slamming]
[upbeat music]
Well, this is where you'll be working out of today.
[man coughing]
You'll each have an area.
I know it's a little bit run down,
but it does provide a little bit
of privacy for your patients.
Isaiah here will be doing triage for you.
And he'll be with us actually at most of the clinics.
If you need something translated, give him a holler.
[speaking foreign language]
For supplies, we pretty much have everything you
need here in the room.
But if you find you need something else,
just let us know and we'll do our best.
Sounds good.
[patient coughing]
Well, nothing like a new adventure, right?
Let's hop to it.
[child coughing]
[bright music]
You doing all right?
Yeah, is this the exam table?
[laughs] Yeah, that's it.
Don't worry, it'll work well enough.
[Charlotte] Thank you.
[sighs] You ready?
Yeah.
Alrighty, I'll grab your first patient.
[bright music]
Hi, please sit.
I'm Dr. Hudson.
Can you tell me what happened?
[speaking foreign language]
Oh, right.
Can you tell me what happened?
Sorry, I don't know why I'm yelling.
You need a translator?
Yes.
Isaiah, Dr. Hudson could use your help.
- Hi. - Yes, doctor.
I'm just trying to figure out what exactly happened.
When he arrived, he told me he slipped
on a pier when he was fishing.
Oh, that sounds painful.
Well, let's take a look at it, all right?
[speaking foreign language]
Yeah, real slow.
There we go.
[child laughing]
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh. [laughs]
Okay, I just need to look at mommy's eyes really,
really, really quick.
Just a minute, just a minute.
[child laughing]
Perfect.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Hey. [laughs]
Hey, why don't you come with me?
I have something I want to show you really quick.
You're gonna love this.
Hurry, come over here.
Okay.
Let's try again, will you look at this ear.
[mouth blowing]
Much better, thank you.
That right there, and another one.
[balloon popping]
[child shouts] [Maya laughs]
[child mutters]
Now you have, yeah.
You blow it.
[Maya laughs]
Well that should do it.
You'll be sore today, but you'll start
to feel better tomorrow.
Be sure to rinse gently with salt water.
Thank you.
Do you have any questions?
[Woman] No.
Now just make sure you're taking some prenatal vitamins
and getting the proper nutrition for you and the baby.
This should help you get started.
Just take one every day with food.
- Thank you. - Mm-hmm.
[sighs] Well, that's your last patient for the day.
How'd it go?
Good, but it was definitely an adjustment.
Yeah, it always is.
Some things are pretty basic but.
Well, basic as long as you have what you
need to take care of them.
Well, and if I can communicate with them.
Yeah, it's pretty tricky.
And there's so many dialects.
I just barely get by with limited topics.
And that's after living here for several years.
[laughs] Well, thank goodness Isaiah was nearby.
They're nice people.
Yeah.
I just wish there was more I could do.
[insects chirping]
How about dinner out tonight?
Oh, that sounds so good.
Henry, you'll join us, won't you?
Oh, thank you, but uh.
Oh, come and join us.
It's just that I've got a lot to arrange.
Tomorrow we're going to a village
on one of the more remote islands,
and I want to make sure the charter boat is set.
They haven't had anyone come
since I was last there three months ago.
Okay.
What about you Charlotte?
Come on, we'll swap med school stories.
It will be fun.
Sure, yeah.
Just give me a minute to change.
Yeah.
[phone ringing]
Charlotte, what time is it there?
Oh my goodness, I totally forgot.
You're lucky I was on the night shift tonight.
[Charlotte] Sorry.
Is everything okay?
No, not really.
I mean, it's fine, except I think maybe this was a mistake.
How bad are the conditions out there?
It's not that.
I mean, sure, it'd help if I spoke the language,
but it's a foreign country.
I expected that.
Then what?
Elijah's brother Seth is out here too.
Seth.
And now you can't not see Elijah.
Exactly.
Well, is he being a jerk or making things difficult?
No, I mean, he's nice and all,
but now I can't go anywhere without seeing Elijah.
Would it look bad for the hospital if I came home early?
No, but do you really want to throw in the towel?
No, it's just.
You've barely been there.
You're probably still jet lagged,
and I'm guessing things won't seem so bad
once you get some rest.
Yeah.
You're probably right.
[water lapping]
[Seth] Not a bad first day right?
Yeah, it was fine.
That was one of the nicer clinics I've been to.
When I was in Africa, that was pretty rough.
It was mostly tents.
Oh. [utensils clattering]
I'll get you a new one.
No, it's fine.
[Seth] That's not a problem.
Really, I.
I'll be right back.
I'm sorry, I've got to ask.
How well did you know Seth,
before, when he was your future brother-in-law?
I'm still trying to wrap my head around that one. [laughs]
I mean, I saw him at family dinners, a few holidays
and things when Elijah and I were dating and engaged.
Yeah, but like what was the relationship?
Were you friends, did you get along?
With Seth?
Oh.
I mean, I guess.
A little.
Last Christmas, I was supposed
to bring the dessert to the family get together.
Supposed to?
I had just gotten off a double shift.
I was hurting as it was and forgot.
Elijah's mom wanted everything perfect for Christmas.
And was a little stressed, I think.
But Seth quickly spoke up that the dessert I chose
was best served fresh,
and that I had called to see if I could make it there.
He covered for you.
He helped me make it too.
It was nice of him.
Not just helping make it,
but saving me from the embarrassment.
So what did you guys make?
Some fruit crisp.
Apple cranberry, I believe.
Yeah.
And fortunately your mother didn't notice
we used up the last of her cranberries.
Here.
Thanks.
[playful music]
So Seth, where did you go to dental school?
[Seth] I went to Augusta.
[gentle music]
Is there anything fun you guys want
to do while we're out here?
I imagine the snorkeling would be amazing.
Oh yeah.
We should ask Henry.
See if there's anywhere he recommends.
I also read about whales and dolphins that swim through.
It would be pretty awesome to see them.
Oh, can you imagine?
What about you, Charlotte?
Anything on your must-do list?
No, I don't know.
You didn't look up the things the minute you
decided to come out here?
No, not really.
I was more focused on leaving than coming here.
Ah, there you all are.
Hi.
Just wanted to let you know
we'll be leaving in the morning about 7:45.
We will be ready.
And thanks again for another good day, really.
Wait, come, relax for a little bit.
Oh.
Yeah, sorry, habit.
Whenever I have doctors here, I try to make the most of it
and not miss out on any of the clinics.
So, how often are you having doctors come out now?
Every three months, yeah.
Like to get to a point where we have them come
out every month, but take a lot of volunteers
to get and arrange.
A lot of donated supplies to hope for.
You know, when I worked for that Latin American foundation
I found them on this medical charity listing site.
There's these organizations out there
and they'll compile all of the medical charities.
And they'll list everything that they do.
How the average person or a corporation
can donate or help.
How doctors can get involved, all sorts of things.
Hm, really.
I mean, it's up to you, but if you wanted,
we could try and get your foundation listed
with one of those sites.
I could show you how.
That'd be great.
Really, anything we could do to expand our reach here.
Thank you, Maya.
Of course.
[gentle music]
Hey, Henry.
Hey.
Does Henry ever rest?
I doubt it.
It's sweet though 'cause you can tell he really
cares about everyone here.
I think he still really misses his wife.
Maybe that's why he's so dedicated.
Do you know anything about her?
Just that she was from here in the Philippines,
and that they met while he was out here for work.
What type of work?
The biography on his foundation website said
that he ran or they owned some kind of a tech company.
Oh, I assumed he had some type
of background in medical work.
Can you imagine going from that to doing this,
all in her name?
Losing a loved one can be devastating.
I guess so.
But at some point you've got to move on, right?
Live again.
[gentle music]
Can I join you?
Um.
I guess.
[Seth] It's hard to believe we're here, isn't it?
Yeah.
No, I mean in a place so beautiful.
Not that it's you and me of all people here.
Oh, I thought you meant the second one.
I'm not surprised.
Sorry.
So, what made you decide to come here?
Well.
My practice is doing great,
and I recently brought on another dentist to help.
So, I can actually leave every now and again.
That's good.
Yeah.
Yeah, I used to worry that my patients would have no one to
go to if I wasn't around and now that's not an issue.
But why here?
I'd get letters from different foundations,
asking me to come help.
At first, I'd just toss them in the trash.
Too busy, not my problem.
That sort of reaction, you know.
But with the other dentist around,
I'm finding myself in the office only three days a week.
Nice.
Yeah.
Yeah, I started to feel a little guilty.
The timing, everything, lined up well.
I got a letter from Henry's foundation a couple months ago,
along with a couple of others I had started saving.
And you chose here?
Yeah.
Something about this place.
It felt like this is where I was needed.
Was it the same for you?
No.
I, uh.
I actually need to finish getting ready.
[water lapping]
[birds cawing]
Anything else to pack up?
Oh, that should do it.
How are we looking on time?
We're good if we leave in the next few minutes.
So, how you holding up so far?
Good.
Yeah, yeah, It's nice here.
Different pace.
Yeah.
Yeah, the more remote we get,
the slower it gets, in a good way.
Do you ever miss the big city?
You know, the faster track lifestyle?
No, I used to think I did, but not anymore.
So.
How are things between you and Dr. Hudson?
They could be better. [laughs]
I don't know the details, but is there anything I can do?
I keep asking what I can do, but it's a bit tricky.
It won't affect our work though.
Oh no, no, I'm not worried about that.
So, what makes it tricky?
More that it's out of my control.
I have a twin brother.
He's older by four and a half minutes,
and despite the stereotype of older and wiser, he's.
Not?
There's been more than a few occasions
where I'm left to clean up after him.
Wow, that's tough.
Yeah.
But you don't have to clean up after his missteps?
Yeah.
I'm telling myself that a lot lately.
Habit over the years.
It's just, it's not easy to ignore those
he leaves in his wake.
[cheerful music]
Where's Isaiah, is he coming?
No, he went over yesterday to get things set up.
Alrighty.
We should probably get going.
[upbeat music]
[playful music]
Here, take these.
Thanks.
[pills rattling]
[playful music]
[soft chuckling]
[majestic music]
[dolphins whistling]
Everybody see it?
Take a look in this area.
Oh, it's dolphins!
[water splashing]
[Seth] Where?
[people chattering] [dolphins whistling]
[gentle music]
[Charlotte] They're beautiful.
How does anybody leave this place?
[waves crashing]
[gentle music]
[Maya sighs]
So do you always see dolphins like that out here?
Yeah, pretty much every trip.
Is it the same pod?
Oh gosh, I don't know.
I'd like to think so, but I'm not about to name them.
Oh, I named 'em.
Ocean, Oceana, Little Blue and Captain Henry.
Just over here.
This is, uh.
Small?
Yeah.
You'll love it.
[people chattering]
- Henry! - Hey!
Welcome.
Good to see you, Tobias.
Let me introduce you to my team here.
This is Dr. Hudson, Dr. Solis, and Dr. Adkins.
Thank you for coming.
Come, come.
Henry.
Tobias is eager for you to meet his sister.
Oh no.
Lucky for you she's visiting family on another island.
Don't be surprised if he asks you to come back for her.
Listen, how do you say no matchmaking in Tagalog?
[upbeat music]
[people chattering]
[gentle music]
[people chattering]
[patient exhaling]
[gentle music]
You hungry?
Yeah.
We should probably eat now.
Isaiah said some more families will be coming by soon.
Thanks.
Is it safe?
Uh, Henry's eating it so.
Can you imagine living this far away from everything?
No doctor, no store, no--
Movie theater?
[laughs] No, I can't.
They seem happy though.
Maybe there's something to that.
Yeah, could be.
Still.
Not for you, huh?
At least it's eye opening.
So, why did you come out here?
I mean, don't take this the wrong way,
but it doesn't really seem like it's your thing.
Are you saying I'm too self-centered to volunteer?
[laughs] See I told you not to take it the wrong way.
No, what I mean is you seem very committed
to the hospital back home.
Very focused.
I was.
Then why?
Do you really expect me to say it out loud?
No.
I was hoping it wasn't the reason I thought.
Well, sorry to disappoint.
My reasons for being here aren't as selfless as yours.
I'm not him.
I know you know that, but you're still
taking what Elijah did out on me.
I'm not.
I'm trying not to.
It's hard when you.
Yeah.
Look, I know Elijah hurt you.
Believe me, my parents and I were upset
with him breaking things off the way he did.
But, can't we move past that?
It's awkward.
So, it's awkward.
We both know it, now let's leave that behind.
You really think it's that easy?
I'm hoping it can be.
Regardless of my brother, can't we be friends?
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah.
[gentle music]
Oh, oh! [groans]
[Elijah spits]
Still think it's safe?
[adventurous music]
Seth.
What?
[Charlotte gasps]
Whales!
[water splashing]
Slow it down.
Let me guess, you see these all the time too?
Yeah.
[Maya] Really?
Well, you've never really experienced whales
until you've seen things from their level.
Anybody up for a swim?
Seriously, can we?
[both laughing]
[gentle music]
[whales vocalizing]
Did you see that?
That was amazing.
[gentle music]
Looks like you got your wish.
Even better.
[both laughing]
[gentle music]
These photos are brilliant, if I do say so myself.
Aw, send me some.
I will, I will.
Oh, Henry, I sent you a foundation's website
to some of those organizations I mentioned.
Really, already, thank you.
It will massively increase exposure
and hopefully attract some more doctors for you.
And funding.
Actually, I can handle the costs okay.
It's the medical supplies that are a bit of an issue.
I could talk to the hospital I work at.
They donate excess supplies to other causes all the time.
Why not yours?
That'd be great.
You think I'd have all this figured out by now.
[Seth laughs]
It's not like it's easy.
[sighs] I just hope I can keep up with it all.
Anyway, tomorrow we have nothing planned.
So, please just enjoy your day.
Henry, thank you for today.
It was incredible.
Well, I'm glad you liked it.
[Charlotte chuckles]
[phone ringing]
Hey Abigail, you're at work early.
I thought I'd check on you before my day got busy.
How are you?
I'm good.
[Abigail] You're still there
so I'm assuming things are better.
Yeah.
Yeah, they are.
The people are really nice and I can see the need here.
Any tricky cases so far?
Nothing I couldn't handle but that's good.
There are only so many resources and supplies.
Speaking of, the foundation could really use some more.
Any chance you can arrange something?
Yeah, I think so.
I'll see what I can set up.
Really?
Oh, that's great, thank you.
So, how are things with Seth?
Still awkward.
[laughs] Although he's, he's nice.
So what, you're friends now?
Oh, not quite, but maybe getting there.
[bright music]
- Morning. - Morning.
You headed out somewhere?
The market.
I think we passed it yesterday on the way to the marina.
Can I come, I need some groceries.
Is that all right?
Sure.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
[gentle music]
These look good.
[sighs] I was hoping to find some cereal here.
[laughs] It's not that kind of market.
Here, try mango.
It's healthier.
Oh, wow, are those pearls?
Pretty color.
You should get it.
Oh, I don't need it.
Jewelry is not about need.
Do you want a bracelet?
[laughs] Well, all I'm saying is live a little.
Here.
Oh no, no, no, it's fine.
- Thanks. - Mm-hmm.
You know, I could have bought that myself.
But you wouldn't have, enjoy.
Thank you.
So, what's Elijah up to these days?
Last I heard he was trying to move up at work.
[Seth chuckles]
Yeah, the thrilling field of investment advising.
I'd love to say he got fired,
but he's just been doing his thing,
living the dream, whatever.
Why would you want him to be fired?
Karma.
[both laughing]
Just kidding, kind of.
So, is he seeing anyone?
No one consistently.
Oh good.
I mean, not good, but good.
He's getting out there and you know, meeting new people.
Yeah.
Have you?
What?
Gone out there and met new people?
Well, I'm here, aren't I?
I mean dating, not just work.
I've been busy.
It's been over three months.
Yeah, and it's been a busy three months.
[chuckles] All right.
[gentle music]
[water lapping]
So, what should we do for the rest of the day?
I think I may go take a nap.
No, you didn't come all the way
out to the Philippines just to sleep.
Fine, what do you have in mind?
How about horseback riding?
Oh no, I probably shouldn't.
What?
Henry might need my help.
Nice try but we both know that guy's got it under control.
Let's get changed, I'll meet you in 10.
[horse snorting]
Oh hello, name?
Seth Adkins and Charlotte.
Yes, yes, come, come.
I have horse for you.
Here.
- This one? - Yeah, up, up.
Okay, up, all right.
[horse neighing] [Seth grunting]
No.
Okay. [laughs]
It's harder than it looks.
You've never ridden horses before?
Not since I was a teenager.
[Guide] Come, pull, pull, use muscles and pull.
Muscles and pull, okay.
[Guide] Yeah, there you go.
- You are big. - Here, come, here.
Woo, I.
- You teach him. - Okay.
[Guide] Okay, let's go.
[Charlotte laughing]
[gentle music]
[Charlotte] So, where does this take us?
[Seth] I can't remember.
I have no idea.
You don't know?
Well, what are we supposed to see then?
I can't remember what the brochure said
but it doesn't matter.
It's about the journey, right?
The experience.
Bonding with nature and your horse.
[both laughing]
Great.
Don't you like horses?
Do you?
Yes, but I love all animals, always have.
Yeah, you should have been a veterinarian, not a dentist.
I actually wanted to be a vet.
Really?
Why didn't you?
Ah, it wasn't enough.
What do you mean?
Elijah was going into a lucrative and successful field.
My parents, well, they never said it,
but I felt like they expected something more prestigious
from me than working with animals.
Surprised you let that dissuade you.
Elijah would tease me about the idea.
So, I began to think I should do something else.
Eh, you could always have a second career,
a midlife crisis or something.
Ditch your dental practice and learn how to treat animals.
I could, but being a dentist isn't bad.
Besides, I'd rather interact with animals in this way.
[horse neighing softly]
I have gotten a bunch of inquiries
about my foundation already.
Really?
Whatever you did is working.
Good.
Is it mostly donations, volunteers, bit of both?
No, it's mainly volunteers.
Everybody seems to have a different availability though.
It's kind of making me dizzy, keeping it all straight.
[Maya laughs]
The foundations I worked for before had entire teams
doing what you're trying to do all by yourself.
I have Isaiah.
Yes you do.
And Isaiah is great.
I just, I don't think that's going to be enough.
Well, it'll have to do for now.
I just, I can't focus on bringing on someone new.
I still have to make sure I can keep things going
as they are, while adding more doctor rotations.
All right, listen.
Will you just promise me one thing, that as this gets busier
and the foundation continues to grow,
take a minute every now and again and just relax.
Breathe.
I promise.
I do try to fly back to the US every Christmas
to be with my family.
You do?
Yeah.
My mom lives with my sister and her family.
I have a brother who's on marriage number four.
Oh.
- And then there's my son. - Oh.
Yeah, he's in college back in Virginia.
So when you go back, how long did you get to stay for?
Two or three weeks, then right back here.
I bet they miss you when you go.
It's always good to see the family
and spend a bit of time together.
But I love coming back here.
So, this is home for you.
Yes.
Yeah.
What about you?
You're from New Zealand, yeah?
Yep, and London before that.
So which is home and which is the place you live?
Um.
Well, I've lived in Auckland for 15 years now.
And it's the place I live, I think.
But to be honest, I felt the same way about London.
So I don't know.
You have kids?
No, I was married once before, when I was younger.
I was too young, turns out.
I'm sorry.
I feel like I've got a sense of freedom now though.
Like I can go to new places
and see new cultures and make new relationships.
That's good, yeah.
Fantastic.
[insects chirping]
[horse snorting]
Pineapple is big business.
Lots of use for fruiters and plant.
Stop here, you can take pictures.
Your horses rest for a minute.
[horses neighing] [cameras clicking]
Should we?
Yeah, might as well.
[camera clicking]
So did you ever want to be something other than a doctor?
No, only in the first couple of years
when I was exhausted. [chuckles]
Still like it then?
[Charlotte] Yeah, why wouldn't I?
I'm just thinking about that story you
told Maya the other day, what happened last Christmas.
Thought maybe it was becoming too much.
No, I just, I didn't want to
disappoint your mom or Elijah.
Did I ever thank you for helping me out of that?
[laughs] Yes, yes, you did.
[Charlotte] Good.
They miss you, you know?
Yeah?
Yeah.
I get the sense that if they could
pick a daughter-in-law, it would it be you.
What about you?
Any future daughter-in-law prospects
you'll be bringing home to them?
Nope, and thanks for reminding me of a topic
my father likes to bring up whenever I see him.
Your dad?
I'd assume it'd be your mom bringing it up.
Nah, nah.
She's still hemming and hawing over Elijah's life choices.
Oh, there's your karma.
Now, at least it spares me
from her fixating on my love life.
So can I ask why no one special has caught your eye?
I guess that's just it.
No one special has caught my eye.
I don't know.
Maybe I'm too caught up with everyday life.
Get up, go to work.
See patients, cavities, root canals, come home,
catch a game with some friends and do it all over again.
Through it all, no one's really stood out.
So, what are you looking for?
I don't know.
Oh, come on.
Blonde, brunette, auburn, athletic, tall, petite, bookish?
I'm not sure any of that really matters.
I'm just looking for that.
That moment.
Beyond the carefree decision of sure,
let's grab a coffee sometime.
The spark.
Who knows?
Maybe I'll let you know when it happens.
Okay, let's go. [tongue clicking]
[horse snorting]
Hey, Maya!
Hi, how was horseback riding?
It was fun.
Enlightening. [laughs]
So you coming in?
This water is amazing.
Thanks, maybe next time.
All right.
I had fun.
Thanks for suggesting it.
Yeah, I'm glad you came.
[Seth sighs]
What's the matter, you all right?
Just.
My brother was a fool to let her go.
[upbeat music]
[cars humming]
[upbeat music]
[soft coughing]
Do you need some motion sickness meds again?
Sorry, this place is a little out there.
Even farther than the island village?
Well, there are degrees, I guess.
[upbeat music]
[birds chirping]
[people chattering]
Kumusta? [laughs]
All right, these people are mostly waiting on vaccines.
This is my first time here.
Another village referred them to the foundation.
Let's get started then.
Yeah.
There you go.
Okay, you're all set, thanks.
Next.
Hey, Henry!
- Yeah. - Come here.
Hang on.
Yeah, what can I do for you?
Put those on.
Okay.
They can be a little tricky to get on.
Now when you're ready, I'm going to have you take this.
There you go.
Now here, insert with the needle like this,
and pull the plunger back to fill it, 0.5 milliliters,
Okay, like that?
Good, now keep the tip of the syringe in the liquid
and careful not to draw on any air if you can help it.
Right, okay, like that?
Uh huh.
- Good? - Great.
Ready to give it a try?
What?
We've got a line of people here.
Oh yeah, no, they they've come to see doctors,
not a computer geek.
You'll be fine, come on.
We'll start by cleaning his skin.
How are you?
- Fine. - All right, thank you.
Yeah.
I'm just gonna slightly grab the arm,
a wide pinch, if you will, and.
[Henry groans]
All set?
There.
Are you feeling okay?
Yeah, I'll be fine.
[Henry clears throat]
- Do you need to sit? - Yep, mm-hmm.
- I'll take that. - Maybe you oughta.
Yeah.
I didn't think it would bother you.
Yeah, no it shouldn't.
I am a fully grown man.
But needles have always made me queasy.
There goes my career in medicine.
[Charlotte laughs]
[Charlotte] Just take a deep breath, you'll be fine.
Embarrassing.
[Charlotte laughs]
[gentle music]
Okay, do you see my earring?
Can you just look right there for me?
Hi-five. [hands clapping]
Good job.
[gentle music]
Oh! [laughs]
[people shouting]
[people cheering]
[Maya] I mean, I could see you turning green
from across the room.
You did well, Henry.
Just don't make me watch anything with needles anymore.
Doing all right there, Seth?
Seeing anything interesting outside?
Just green blurs.
I feel like if I can keep my focus out there
it doesn't bother my stomach as much.
[loud thudding]
Oh, that's not good.
[regular thumping]
What is it?
Sounded like something hit the undercarriage.
Well, whatever it was, the truck is no longer working.
Sorry, guys.
That's all right.
It was an accident.
[Charlotte] Do you have any service out here?
[Maya] No.
What, no jungle cell phone tower?
Afraid not.
I didn't see anybody on the way out here.
Or on the way in.
Do you know how far out we are still?
Oh, 40 kilometers.
35 to the nearest village.
And 25 kilometers back to the village we just were at.
[sighs] The sun'll be set by then.
I think we're just gonna have to wait it
out here tonight.
How will anybody find us?
Well, hopefully somebody will come along the road,
but if not, we are scheduled to meet up
with Isaiah at a different part of the island tomorrow.
He'll know something's up.
He'll come for us.
Well, what do we have to work with then?
[insects chirping]
Does anybody want something to eat?
I've got granola bars, packets of crisps, water.
Water'll be good.
Let's just bring the...
Always be prepared, right?
Yeah.
We could stand to be a little more prepared than we are.
It's fine.
It's like an adventure, right?
Yeah, you have a healthy sense of optimism there, Maya.
To be honest, these are better camping conditions
than I had growing up.
Yeah, you camped a lot?
No, And I'll tell you why.
There was always a bug or creature in my sleeping bag.
Like what?
Once there was a gecko, that wasn't so bad.
Another time, a dead mouse.
In your sleeping bag?
A spider, centipede.
Ugh, gross.
Oh, the worst was a snake.
- No. - Why?
You just have the worst luck in all the land?
Close.
I had a mischievous brother.
No, he didn't.
In his defense, at least the snake was a garter.
And harmless.
You ever do any camping, Maya?
No, and apparently I wasn't missing out on much.
How about you Charlotte?
Yeah.
Fortunately, I don't have a brother to torment me.
[both laughing]
One of my favorite things though
was looking up at the stars at night.
Oh, well, you might want to look up.
Don't want to miss these.
[Maya] Wow.
It's beautiful.
One of the many things I love here.
[rooster crowing]
[somber music]
[rooster crowing]
Did anyone come?
No, it's early yet.
Oh, uh, Seth got a little restless.
Went to look for food.
Really?
Like I said, restless.
Morning, what'd I miss?
I'm going to go check on Seth.
Okay.
Be careful, don't get lost.
Honk, if anyone comes.
You got it.
[mellow music]
[undergrowth crunching]
[soft groaning]
Oh, I hate the jungle.
Hate the jungle.
Seth?
[dramatic music]
[Charlotte gasps] [Seth chuckles]
What are you doing out here?
Henry said you were coming to look for food.
Did you find any?
Yeah.
Yeah, I found some fruit or something.
Why, you hungry?
Just curious.
Well, I didn't know what it was, so I left it behind.
You didn't even try it?
No, what if it was poisonous?
[Charlotte laughs]
[laughs] What?
You're kind of paranoid.
Okay, says the girl scaring herself
from noises in the jungle.
Okay, I'm not being critical, it's just.
Elijah would have eaten the fruit without thought.
Yeah, he would.
Well, it's a good thing I'm not him then.
Being bold isn't a bad thing.
No, so long as you balance it.
Elijah doesn't.
Wow.
What?
[laughs] I didn't realize you two didn't
get along as well as I thought.
We get along fine.
It's just, Elijah can be impulsive, like with.
Nevermind.
Like when he dumped me?
Being impulsive isn't a bad thing, you know.
Are you defending him now?
No, I'm just saying being impulsive can be good.
You know, I'm surprised at how you talk about Elijah.
Nevermind, how you reacted when you saw me here
and treated me just because I look like him.
And now you're talking like what he did is okay.
Trust me, it's not.
Good.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up.
It's just, even I resent what he did to you.
And I don't know, hearing you talk about him like that.
I guess, I just think you should still be upset with him.
I am.
Sort of.
More than anything, I'm.
I don't know why he backed away and why I didn't see it.
I mean, what did I miss?
Was it really him and his career?
Was it because he feels threatened because I'm a doctor?
Did he just not love me?
[birds chirping]
Sorry, forget I said anything.
No, no.
It was just as much of a surprise to me.
[dramatic music]
[Charlotte panting]
Charlotte, what's wrong?
What happened?
It's all right.
It doesn't look all right.
What did you do?
What I had to.
I broke things off.
You what?
Why would you do that?
It wasn't right.
Not now, maybe not ever.
Elijah, it's your wedding day, her wedding day.
I know, bad form and all that, right?
She'll be fine.
Any improvement?
No.
Didn't think there would be, just.
Can't help checking?
Yeah, and hoping.
[hood slamming]
[birds chirping]
Well, you're kind of a have to stay busy type, aren't ya?
[Maya laughs]
Yeah, I think I get a little bit restless if I don't.
Ariana was just like that.
Always fixing something up, organizing, straightening.
Yeah, maybe it's a woman thing.
Maybe.
Only time I could ever get her to stop
was when we were traveling.
What happened to her?
She got sick.
[gentle music]
Ariana had always wanted to visit a lot of the islands.
So we decided to do it.
Take a couple of weeks, just go from place to place.
It was a chance for her to see her home country
in a new way.
Yeah.
We were on this tiny Island.
I mean, smaller than the one we were on the other day,
if you can believe it.
Really?
And she started feeling ill.
It just happened so fast.
Still don't know if it was some bug she'd picked up,
or something she ate, something she touched.
There was no plane, only way off the island was a boat.
And she was just in so much pain, it wasn't an option.
No one could help her.
Maybe I should have tried the boat,
but I just couldn't stand the thought of. [sighs]
By the time I realized that we had to risk it,
it was too late.
She passed away right there on that island.
I'm so sorry.
Yeah, me too.
But you found a wonderful way to keep her memory alive.
I mean, you've turned a tragedy
into something good, something wonderful.
It's got a long way to go still,
but I think she'd be proud of what I've done so far.
[tires rumbling]
He came, you were right!
Hey, guys!
Isaiah!
Elijah has a self-centered streak.
To outsiders he seems driven and bound for success.
And that often comes at the expense of others.
I saw it over and over again growing up with him.
And if there was a problem, I usually had to clean it up.
I'm not a problem.
[laughs] No, that's not what I meant.
I only mean, he's moved on,
and not seen the consequences of what he did.
[sighs] I wonder if the only way he'll learn is if he.
[Charlotte groans]
Goes through the same heartbreak he put you through.
I don't know.
All I know is I don't want anyone to go
through the same heartbreak if they can avoid it.
[horn honking]
It's Henry.
Oh, somebody came.
Yeah.
Alrighty, thanks again, Isaiah.
Next time, take a better car.
Yeah. [laughs]
Ah, it's good to be back in civilization.
Yes, running water is my friend.
Oh, since we didn't make it to today's destination
we've rescheduled it for tomorrow.
Sounds good to me.
Listen, after we get back tomorrow
let me take you guys all out to some nice place for dinner.
Oh, you don't have to do that.
Oh no, no, I want to.
If you're sure.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
Seth, Maya?
- Yeah. - Count me in.
Okay.
See you later?
Yeah.
[gentle music]
[fingers knocking]
- Hey! - Hey.
What's up?
Just wondering, what do you think
the dress is for dinner tonight?
I haven't even thought about it.
You could ask Henry if you want to be sure?
No, no, no, that's all right.
What are you wearing and I'll just pick based off of that.
[laughs] I have no idea.
Well, what are your options?
What are we working with?
See for yourself.
Here?
Oh, this is lovely, you should wear this.
I was thinking I'd wear pants.
No, you should dress up tonight.
Why?
Well, Seth might like it.
Why should that matter?
It's not like we're involved or anything.
Oh, come on.
The way you two get along,
you must've at least considered it.
No.
Oh, that would be so awkward.
I, everyone would think we had some forbidden romance
before, when I was with Elijah.
Did you?
No!
I'm just saying, there'd be looks and rumors
and the odd family gatherings
when Elijah would be there too.
Oh yeah, you've not given this any thought at all,
have you?
[laughs] I'm just thinking out loud.
Well, throw Elijah out of the situation.
It's just you and Seth.
No awkward history, nobody else's opinion.
Would you go out with him?
Sure, why not?
No, I don't just mean a simple date.
Could you see him being your boyfriend or maybe more?
But if I could, isn't that strange?
No, why would it be?
Because I was engaged to his twin brother.
Okay.
Maybe on the surface, but I mean, if you have feelings
for him then none of that should matter.
I always say, learn the lesson, forget the rest.
No regrets.
Well, what about you and Henry?
I can tell you admire him.
No.
Is it obvious?
Only if you know what to look for, but don't worry.
I think he's clueless.
Yeah, he's pretty clueless, huh?
[Charlotte] Yeah.
I just, I don't want it to be awkward.
I mean, I know it's been several years,
but I feel like he's still mourning his wife on some level.
I think he always will, that's normal.
Yeah, I just, I don't, I don't want to be insensitive.
I feel like I'm stomping on her memory or something.
No, I don't think you're doing that at all.
Just give him time.
I don't think he's really thought
of moving forward with his heart.
Yeah.
Right, so for dinner are we talking fancy ballroom,
or boring doctor soulless?
[both laughing]
Ah, how dressed up are we really talking?
I have an idea, I shall return.
You just, you wait right there.
Okay.
[playful music]
Wait, is the restaurant that far or?
This is the restaurant.
What?
I thought a sunset dinner cruise might be a nice change.
- Oh, I love it. - Yeah, please.
That is a nice dress on you, Maya.
Oh, thank you.
Something I should know there.
You can probably guess.
- Here. - Oh, thanks.
[bright music]
So how soon until you have the next doctors coming out?
Two months.
And then I have another group coming in three months,
thanks to you.
Really?
Yeah, I just hope I can get it all arranged.
Well, good news.
The administrator at my hospital
is already working on donating supplies.
Thank you.
You know, we could get more.
Didn't you use to work in the tech industry?
Yeah.
That's a great idea, Maya.
Yeah, they have deep pockets
and like to donate to good causes.
They do.
I mean, is there anybody you're still in contact with,
someone you'd feel comfortable reaching out to?
Yeah, I already have a little.
I'm just not terribly bold when it
comes to things like that.
Well, I mean, if it's something that you want,
you've got to ask for it.
Mm-hmm.
Here, let me grab your.
Oh yeah, I can help.
- Thank you. - Oh, I'll help.
[utensils clattering]
Come on.
What?
Let's check out the view from the bow.
Isn't it rockier up there?
I took something for motion sickness
the second I saw the boat.
Ah.
[Charlotte laughs]
[bright music]
[Seth] Whoa!
[Charlotte] You okay?
I'm not great on my feet on land, much less out here.
You should see me dance.
Oh, I can imagine.
Elijah, let's just say he didn't like dancing.
Ah, so it's true then?
You made Elijah take dance lessons.
He told you.
You thought the traditional first dance
as a couple wouldn't wow anyone.
Um, I did not say that.
Hey, I'm just repeating how Elijah put it.
[sighs] He did hate it, and that's fine.
I just, I wanted everything to be perfect.
Not that it ended up mattering anyway. [chuckles]
Well, the cake was really good.
Was it?
I didn't even get to try it.
Well, my mom chastised me for taking a slice,
saying it was bad luck.
But I figured that ship had already sailed.
Wow, I am glad the event wasn't a total loss then.
I had leftovers for weeks. [laughs]
Oh, but hors d'oeuvres don't keep well.
Yeah, the caterer tried to get me to take some home
as if that would make me feel better.
Did it?
Yeah. [laughs]
Kidding, I threw the food away as soon
as I walked in the door.
- Oh. - I'll get that, thank you.
Thanks so much.
Hey, if you wanted my help with the foundation
I'd be willing to stay and help.
That's nice.
I couldn't ask you to do that.
Why not?
It's too much.
You're already sacrificing a lot.
No, it's not a sacrifice, I like it here.
Well, what about your practice back in Auckland?
I could figure something out, make arrangements.
Just, it feels good here.
Thank you.
But I'm not really sure what I'm going to do yet.
Yeah.
It's just an option, something to think about.
Yeah, okay.
Thank you. - Yeah.
In spite of it all, was there any good that came of it?
I guess being here.
Using my profession to help.
I don't know if I would've have considered it otherwise.
[Charlotte chuckles]
It's been nice here.
Till I showed up.
Even that's not been as horrible as I feared.
Yeah?
Yeah.
Good.
[gentle music]
When we went horseback riding,
I told you that I'd let you know
if I ever felt that spark for someone.
I remember.
[gentle music]
Is that okay?
Mm-hmm.
[romantic music]
[air whooshing]
[Charlotte gasping]
I'm sorry.
I can't.
[waves crashing]
[Charlotte groans]
Oh, what was I thinking?
[sighs] Stupid.
I'm stupid.
[Henry sighs]
You okay?
Yeah, oh yeah.
Is Dr. Solis.
Maya.
Is she?
Am I reading that right?
I wondered when you would notice.
Wow.
Well, I guess I've really gotten blind
to seeing things like that.
What kind of things?
Emotional type situations.
Matters of the heart?
Thank you, that sounds better.
Well, she is an eye doctor.
Maybe she can help you see again.
[both chuckling]
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know that it's such a good idea.
Why not?
Conflict of interest.
We're employer, employee.
It's hardly that.
She's a doctor, and a volunteer, and a good person.
Maybe you could use a fresh start.
[water lapping]
[gentle music]
[footsteps pattering]
Charlotte.
I'm sorry, I overstepped.
I shouldn't have. - No, it's not your fault.
I just can't.
I want to think I can look past everything, but I can't.
I'm not strong enough, and you're.
It's just too hard.
Maybe I rushed things between us,
but that doesn't mean you don't feel something.
I do feel something.
I feel hurt and angry and confused.
What about hope and happiness, love?
It doesn't matter.
I don't trust my heart when I see you.
[Seth sighs]
Do you ever think you'll be able
to look at me and not see Elijah?
[gentle music]
[Charlotte sighs]
[trash rustling]
[gentle piano music]
[trash rustling]
[Charlotte sighs]
Okay.
Looks good, you're all set.
Let me just get you. [Velcro ripping]
Thank you. - Thank you.
Yeah.
[bird chirping] [child chattering]
[gentle music]
[water splashing]
[bird chirping]
All right, you're all set.
[speaking foreign language]
Hey, Isaiah?
Can I get your help over here real quick?
[Isaiah] Yes.
Thanks.
Would you mind asking her really quick?
I just wanted to check something.
Charlotte, perfect timing.
We were just sitting down to eat.
Oh, what are we having?
[Maya] Seth grilled up some chicken,
and I got a cassava cake from the market.
I'm good, but thanks.
You guy go on ahead.
You two all right?
Yeah, yeah.
[people chattering]
Dr. Adkins looks at you a lot.
Oh?
[birds trilling]
Hi, everything all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Do you have any big plans for the weekend?
You've all been busy.
I haven't even thought about it.
You know, no one would think twice
about taking a little time to relax.
I know, it's just not important to me though.
All work, no play.
When you first arrived here,
you thought you'd come just to, to volunteer, to help.
Yeah, I'd like to think that I'm that dedicated,
but we both know I came here to escape.
Did that work?
No, not really.
I'm sorry if I've seemed distracted or unfocused.
Oh no, no, no.
Everything's been fine there.
No, I just bring it up because you,
you don't seem happy.
Yeah.
You know, I came here to find closure.
But instead I feel even more uncertain about everything.
Yeah, closing the door on your past
doesn't mean you have to block out your future.
That sounds wise. [laughs]
But it's too complicated.
Seth and I,
we couldn't have a future.
Oh.
That's too bad.
[gentle music]
[bats squeaking]
[knocking]
Dr. Hudson?
[knocking]
Doctor?
Henry, what's wrong?
I'm so sorry to wake you.
I got a call from Isaiah.
His son, apparently he got hurt.
They are hurrying over to that clinic to meet us.
Yes, of course.
I'll grab my things. - Thank you.
Is everything all right?
Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb either of you.
It's Isaiah's son, he needs help.
- Oh no. - I'll get dressed.
Me too.
[dramatic music]
How serious?
I don't know.
He said his son Datu fell and he's bleeding.
He said he has a hurt leg.
I could hear him crying.
Do you get many of these midnight calls?
No, not often.
I have trained myself to be a light sleeper
so when they come in but.
The worst is when I get a call
and there's no doctors here.
Well, we're going to change that.
We're getting close.
Thank you.
[dramatic music]
[Charlotte] Let's get everything set up.
[Seth] I'll get the lights.
Maya, could you get the ones over there?
[Maya] On it.
I'll wait for him outside.
[Charlotte] Do you want to help me with this?
[Seth] Yeah.
[dramatic music]
I thought I heard them coming.
Is that them?
Okay. - He's here.
[Charlotte] Over here.
[child groaning]
[Maya] Put his head this way.
Can you tell me what happened?
My son, Datu, he sleepwalks.
I heard him crying outside.
He fell on some rocks.
Datu, can you tell me what hurts?
Leg.
Are you having any trouble breathing?
[Datu groans]
So you sleepwalk, huh?
You know, I used to do that when I was your age.
I need a.
Thank you. - I can clean it.
It's gonna need a few stitches.
- I got it. - Okay.
Datu, can you tell me what's going on with your wrist?
Hurt.
Can you move it at all, like this?
Ow, ow.
Okay, yeah, that's good.
We'll just let it rest.
Sprain?
I think so, but it's gonna have to wait.
I have ice packs.
Great.
Isaiah, could Isaiah stand on his leg at all?
No, too much pain.
Okay.
Thank you.
Henry, could we get more ice packs?
[Henry] Yeah, of course.
What is it?
Most likely a broken leg.
Okay, that's not a huge deal, right?
Well, it depends on how it broke.
I don't have an x-ray here.
I mean, it could be a simple greenstick fracture,
but if it's not, I can't tell how bad it is
or if what I'm doing is enough.
Don't we just splint and cast it?
Yeah, well, is it properly aligned?
It's swollen, so visually I just can't be sure.
I'm just, I'm guessing.
Henry, is there an x-ray machine anywhere on the island?
No, not that I know of.
Okay, so you don't have what you normally need
in this situation, but Datu has you and you have us.
Okay.
What do you need us to do?
Finish cleaning and stitching the head wound.
Maya, could you bandage his wrist?
Yes.
Henry, can I get a splint?
[Henry] Yep, I've got one.
Doctor.
Everything's gonna be all right, Isaiah.
Datu, I think you broke your leg.
I'm gonna touch it, okay?
[Datu groans]
I know. - You're okay.
I know.
[Datu groans]
Is this where it hurts the most?
Is it numb?
Tingling?
Tingling, does he know that word?
[speaking foreign language]
Okay, that's good.
Can you feel my fingers on your ankle here?
[Datu groans]
That's good.
We're gonna make sure you're feeling better.
I'm gonna start by splinting your leg, okay?
Thank you.
Okay, nice and easy.
[insects chirping]
- Better? - A little.
You did well on those stitches.
Yeah, they're not so bad.
Try doing that in someone's mouth.
[Charlotte laughs]
Datu will be sore, but keep his leg
elevated for a couple of days.
We can cast it once the swelling goes down,
but I'd like to take a look at it on an x-ray first
to be sure.
We can get a charter to a larger island with a hospital.
I can arrange that.
- Thank you, Henry. - Yeah.
Thank you, Dr. Hudson.
Thank you, everyone.
Thank you.
[motor humming]
[bird chirping]
I am just so glad that you were all here.
Us too.
Do you need any help setting up the boat charter?
No, no.
No, I can handle that, you all rest up.
Hopefully there won't be any more excitement today.
Sounds good.
- See you in a minute? - Yeah.
You doing all right?
Knowing that Datu will be okay, yes.
That's the important thing.
Yeah.
[sighs] Poor boy.
You know, it's just a shame
we didn't have any diagnostics equipment.
I know.
We could though, you know.
Well, we travel around from place to place.
But they make portable versions
of most machines nowadays.
I mean, not everything, but take an x-ray, for example.
What if we had had something like that there tonight?
Can you imagine the difference that could have made?
Yeah, I dunno.
It sounds great, but how do I get all that?
It doesn't have to be all at once.
We just.
We'll keep taking in donations,
and we'll eventually buy the machinery that we need.
And then that will help us to treat the patients
more effectively and more accurately.
In fact, it is a great way to help the foundation expand.
What? [laughs]
I'm sorry.
I just, I didn't expect you to be so involved.
Why not?
I guess I thought it was asking too much.
Oh.
You were serious about wanting to stay here.
Very.
Well, I've been thinking and I think it would be nice
for you to stay.
Really?
Yeah, I mean, you know, you were right.
I can't really handle the foundation anymore by myself,
with the incoming doctors and the funding and the machines.
Trying to keep the clinics open on all the islands.
It's, it's.
And it's something I don't think I even
want to try to keep doing alone, anymore, really.
Do you want me to stay?
Yes.
But only if you're sure it won't disrupt your practice
or your life back home.
It's completely up to you.
Okay.
Okay, you're staying or, or you're thinking?
Yeah, I don't, you know what?
I don't need an answer right now.
Just take your time.
I don't need any more time.
I want to stay here to help.
With you.
[gentle music]
Yeah, I'd like that.
Okay.
Someone looks happy for staying up all night.
Henry asked me to stay.
What?
Then he kind of tried to talk me out of it again,
but I ignored that part and I'm gonna stay.
I'm gonna help him with the foundation.
There is so much good that we can do here.
And who knows what else might come out of it.
I'm happy for you.
Thank you.
[both laughing]
What, what's the matter?
Nothing.
It was a good night.
Is that enough?
Come on, think I haven't noticed you and Seth
avoiding each other like the plague?
[laughs] I know.
Oh, it's been awful, but for a moment tonight,
even though it was tense and Datu needed our help,
I was just happy to be working together.
It felt like the most natural thing.
So what does that tell you?
Hmm?
I mean, you think you can't be happy again,
but you want and deserve another chance.
I know, but.
But what?
You're afraid, of what exactly?
I'm afraid that history will repeat itself.
That somehow things will end up like they did with Elijah.
And yet
I'm also afraid I'll regret letting him go.
You have got to talk to him.
I know, but what if, what if he?
What did I say?
No regrets, remember?

Of course I was gonna come.
I know.
I was glad you were there too.
You helped me.
A lot.
Look Seth, I.
I haven't exactly handled this whole trip right.
And it isn't fair to you.
It's not as if I don't understand though.
All I am is a painful reminder for you.
No, you're not.
Can you honestly say that?
Okay.
It was a shock at first and
it wasn't easy for me.
You know, when I first saw you here, I almost left.
Me too.
[gentle music]
I know Elijah was reckless with your feelings,
and I didn't want to put you through more heartache.
The heartache wasn't because of you.
If anything, you've helped me let go of the hurt.
I've seen sides of you that have made me
admire you more and more.
When we were at the clinic with Isaiah's son,
you were my colleague, but also a comfort.
And before that, you've been the part
of me that's been missing.
I tried not to see it.
I convinced myself it wasn't possible,
but I keep seeing something in you that I didn't expect.
What?
You.
Not Elijah, not Elijah's brother, but you.
I didn't want to dwell on it before,
but last Christmas, when you helped me,
I just wished Elijah had thought to stand
up for me or to cover for me like you did.
You were a kinder soul than my fiance.
Elijah did me a favor.
He didn't love me enough and I loved him so much
that I ignored the things he did
that hurt the people closest to him.
Whereas you,
you go out of your way for people because you care.
For them and for me.
I do you care for you.
More than I thought possible.
Then what?
I just keep thinking what if we make a mess of things?
I don't want us to get hurt--
I am just as scared about that, believe me,
but I've decided I've gotta get over it.
I'm willing to risk it.
- You are? - Yeah.
Who knows how this will end up?
I sure don't but
I want to find out.
[gentle music]
[romantic music]
[lips smacking]
Just promise me that if it comes down to it
we'll figure out good ways to handle Elijah,
if he's around or any weird looks people
give us back home or.
Let's not let any of that worry us.
We'll face whatever we face, but none of it matters.
The only thing that matters to me is you.
I believe you.
I always thought he was a fool to let you go.
But now I'm so glad he did.
Me too.
[romantic music]
[waves crashing]
[upbeat music]
See anything interesting?
Yes. [chuckles]
[lips smacking]
Charlotte, Seth!
It's time to go!
Patients waiting.
We better get going.
All right.
