"What A Tangled Web We Weave"
Oh my god! What an episode this turned out to be!
We see Goodwin entering the ED after an accident involving a young boy riding his bike at night. Goodwin tries to get information about the boy. It soon turns when she confronts the boy's mother and tries to reason why she does not do the surgery.
But it turns out that after the surgery, Goodwin gets word about DCFS coming; she does one more thing to help the mother, which means giving her a job and a place for her boys to stay while she's working.
Manning gets worried after her mother has developed a cough after taking the trial drugs. As soon she asks Will about it, Will searches for those pills that Kinder did not pick up. It even gets Will and Marcel to bump heads with one another with a patient who doesn't want surgery.
Meanwhile, Maggie tries to meet her long-lost daughter, who is in the medical field. When April signs up for a nurse practitioner, Dr. Archer gets her to perform a procedure that puts her in an uncomfortable situation.
"What a Tangled Web We Weave" was such a good episode. I couldn't get enough of Goodwin's storyline, even though she was breaking the rules. Goodwin being Goodwin. Also, Manning is playing with Halstead and Marcel about her mother. It's wild, but I loved their argument in this episode. Overall, I give this episode an 8.5/10.
"A Red Pill, A Blue Pill"
Are we living in a Matrix simulation?
Dr. Archer, Dr. Charles, and April tend to a patient with abdominal pain who refuses treatment because he believes he's in a computer simulation. The patient pushes Archer, which worries April because he seems to overdose on the patient to get surgery.
Natalie rushed to the ED with her mother as her health declined. Will soon suspected Natalie was the person who took the trial medication. After hearing that Natalie's mother's heart is improving, Will decides to give more of the trial drug, slowly move her out of the LVAD, and get her on the transplant.
Marcel tends to a patient who came in with a gunshot but couldn't find the bullet until it was in his child's body. Marcel saves the child just in time. And Maggie gets to watch her daughter work in the ED but does get in trouble with Ethan.
"A Red Pill, A Blue Pill" was a good episode that kept me on my toes for the whole hour. It's from an excellent #Manstead storyline. Of course, I ate that up. Plus, the Archer storyline is getting good, and Maggie and Vanessa were also as good. Overall, I give this episode a 9/10.
