The show opens with a man in a hotel bed with two women. It is night time and he tells the two women that he has to go, but will see them both in the morning. He tells them that they can order room service for dinner and he will be back at breakfast. One of the women tries to convince him to stay, but he tells her that she knows how devoted to his work he is.

Sam and Dr. Gates are out in the ambulance bay waiting for arrivals. She is surprised to see him working that night. Sam apologizes for what happened at Ikes the other night. She blames it on the few drinks she had. She doesn’t want it to be weird around each other and knows that he has something going on with Julia. He tells her that Julia is in Nepal on a spiritual retreat. Sam seems pleasantly surprised. She tells him that now “they will have time to get it out of their system” or “get over it”, referring to their attraction to one another. A man walks up yelling for help and is carrying a woman named Mia in his arms. She has stopped breathing. He tells her that he thinks it is her heart.

A red-headed woman is showing the new doctor around. He comments on the ruby necklace that she is wearing and seems to be a flirt. Sam and Gates come in to the room and place Mia on the gurney. Her boyfriend Jordan is with them. Pratt comes in to assist. Jordan tells them that she had a heart transplant last year. The doctor introduces himself to Pratt as Dr. Simon Brenner, the new Attending. Pratt is trying to find out why Mia is having a hard time breathing. Dr. Brenner steps out of the room and comes right back and asks if he can try something on Mia. Pratt wants to know what it is and he tells him that it is sublingual captopril and nitro. Gates tells him that he wants to start an airway first, but Brenner tells him that it will only take a second and gives it to her. As Pratt tells Jordan that they are going to have to put Mia on a breathing machine, she comes to and stops them. She is breathing on her own now thanks to the medicine Dr. Brenner gave her. “Those lips, those eyes, It’s be a crime to intubate a face like that” he tells them. Pratt and Gates just look at him.

Abby is looking at a snow globe and remembering the time that she received it as a Christmas gift during Season nine’s episode “Hindsight”. During the flashback, Luka and Abby are in a bedroom at the party that Susan Lewis had at her apartment and Luka tells Abby that they don’t talk much any more. She tells him that they should fix that and he caresses her arm. “I miss you Abby”, he tells her. The flashback ends and Dr. Janet Colburn is knocking on Abby’s door. She is worried that Abby is going to miss her flight. Abby tells her that it has been delayed. Janet can sense that something is wrong with Abby. Abby assures her that she is going to make this flight this time. Janet tells her that Luka has been waiting a week for her already. Abby is not so sure that he has been waiting. She tells Abby that she can’t keep putting it off. “What if it doesn’t work”, she asks her. Janet replies, “It works as long as you believe in it”. Abby tells her that she isn’t talking about the program; she is talking about her marriage. Abby isn’t sure that she can fix it.

Pratt asks Sam what it means when a phone doesn’t even go to voicemail. A young woman walks up and asks if there is an Attending around. Laverne St. John, a fourth-year student, is starting her rotation in the ER today. Pratt is surprised that her first day is working an over-night. “Some girls have all the fun”, she replies. Pratt tells her to get started with Dr. Brenner in Exam room two and points her on her way.

Morris and Frank walk up to the admit. desk and Frank tells Morris “no, now stop bugging me”. “This is for the advancement of science”, Morris tells him. Morris has a grant proposal due tomorrow and he tries to get Sam to help him with it by being his test subject for a hundred bucks. She asks him what she has to do and he tells her that he wants to study the Physiological effects of conducted electrical weapons. “Tasers?” she replies. He tells her it is only a five second shock and she tells him “forget it” and walks away.

Gates takes Mia up for a biopsy and Jordan waits for her in the ER. Gates tells Mia that Jordan seems like a good guy. She agrees and tells him that they have been together for about a year now. Jordan is waiting in the exam room with Sam and tells her that he and Mia have been together for fourteen months. “A few days after she got the heart”, he says. They hit it off rather quickly. Mia tells Gates that Jordan drover her to all of her doctors’ appointments. Made sure she had all of her meds. He was her recovery buddy. Jordan tells Sam that he can’t imagine being without her. “Every day I thank God for bringing us together”, he tells Sam.

Dr. Brenner catches up with Dr. Pratt and thanks him for the med. student. “Intelligent, enthusiastic and docile. I’m surprised you didn’t keep her for yourself”, he tells him. Brenner tells Pratt that he will see patients on his own without having to bother Pratt all night. Pratt seems more than okay with that.

Pratt tells Sam that the family in Exam 4 is requesting a chaplain. She asks him who is filling in for Julia while she is away and he tells her that Julia quit and to ask her replacement, Father Brian. Sam seems surprised that Julia has quit. Frank tells Pratt that there is a double trauma coming in. One of the patients is a sixty-nine year old woman named Kelly Robinson. She is an assisted living resident and is a victim of an assault with chest trauma and a facial laceration. Chuny and Dr. Brenner ask her who beat her up and she tells them that it was another resident. The other patient tells her that she beat her up because she had dropped her during a trust exercise. She fell off a table right onto the other patients head. Ms. Robinson tells them that it was an accident, but the other patient disagrees. Pratt takes the other patient to another trauma room.

Abby tells Janet that it seems like her whole life, she hasn’t had control of a single thing. Janet tells her that it is because of the disease. Abby lights up a cigarette and Janet continues to tell her that the way she is thinking only leads to a relapse. Abby feels like she doesn’t deserve any more chances, but Janet tells her who decides how many chances you deserve? Abby tells her that Luka came to see her while she was in rehab during the second week. She flashes back and we see that Luka had brought pictures of Joe at the seaside. Abby understands why Luka didn’t bring Joe on his visit. She knew that it would have been hard on her to see him. Luka tells her that he only came back for a day or two to take care of some things. Abby asks him what things and he tells her that he has quit is job at the ER. “I was thinking I needed something else”, he tells her. Abby seems shocked and upset. She asks him if he is going to stop practicing medicine and he tells her that he might go into a different area. He needs a clean break. Abby tells him that she will be done with rehab in two weeks and wonders if she should meet him back in Croatia or if he will be returning to Chicago. He tells her, “We’ll see”. Abby wants to know what he means by that and he tells her that he and Joe feel happy with his family in Croatia. He wants to know when she will be ready to tell him the truth about what happened with her.

Dr. Brenner asks Dr. Weston what course of action he should take with Ms. Robinson and doesn’t like his answer. He tells him to go next door to assist Dr. Pratt. He then asks Laverne what she thinks they should do about Ms. Robinson’s collapsed lung. The two women begin yelling at each other and Pratt learns that they were once Librarians that worked together. Lavern asks Dr. Pratt if he needs her and he wants to know why Dr. Brenner keeps sending the students in there to assist him. She tells him that Dr. Brenner didn’t like any of her ideas. Laverne tells Pratt, “He suggested that I go to the library and read. He also suggested that I use a different shade of eye shadow and do something different with my hair”. Dr. Weston tells Pratt to please not make them go back in there with Dr. Brenner. Pratt has a talk with Dr. Brenner. He reminds him that it is a teaching hospital and the students look up to them as examples.

Sam asks Gates why he didn’t tell her about the chaplain quitting. He tells her that he didn’t think it was important. She decided that she was going to stay in Nepal for a couple of years. He tells Sam that he was embarrassed that he was dumped like that. “It is new to me”, he tells her. Gates and Sam talk with Mia and Jordan. Her white blood count is high and her heart is being rejected. “The heart she has got is perfectly fine. It’s a good heart”, Jordan tells them. “Just find a way to keep it working”. Jordan is upset that Gates told him that Mia might have to go back on the transplant list.

Abby and Janet are sitting in the airport. Abby is worried about having to be honest with Luka about something she really doesn’t want to talk about. Janet suggests that she only needs to tell Luka parts of what happened and not go into details. Abby tells Janet that it was Kevin Moretti. Janet says that it makes sense now. Luka had come to see Janet while Abby was in rehab. In a flashback, we see Luka and Janet talking. He wants to know what happened with Abby. She tells him that it is not right for her to be speaking with him. Luka reminds Janet that she has been alone now for several years since her husband left her. She tells him that she has stayed healthy and made her life work. Janet tells Abby that she did not realize how frustrated Dr. Kovac was.

Pratt checks in on Dr. Brenner and his patient. Ms. Robinson tells Dr. Pratt how superb Dr. Brenner is. Pratt asks if the Residents are getting any hands-on experience and he assures him that they are. They have been doing minuscule tasks like taking packaging off of the tubes and rubbing Betadine on the patient. Neela walks in for a consult and Dr. Brenner introduces himself to her. She seems to like him. Morris walks up and tries to recruit Neela as his test subject. She tells him to taser himself.

Sam and Gates speak with Mia while Jordan is out in the hall speaking with her family. Gates tells her that he knows that she has quit taking her medicines. Mia tells them that he knows Jordan loves her, but her heart was from his fiancée’. She was in an accident and died and she got the heart. She understands that she has let it go too far. She tells them that he is not the one.

Janet tells Abby that being sober means being honest with yourself and the people you love. Abby tells her that she has always been a liar. She has lied to everyone, even to Janet. She did drink while she was at work. Abby flashes back to where she had been drinking and Sam was assisting her with a patient, from the episode "Coming Home".  Janet tells her that we all lie. She has been sober for twelve years and doesn’t know that she might relapse. Janet hugs her and Abby heads to the plane.

Pratt has finally gets through to Bettina’s answering machine. He tells her to check her cell phone; he thinks something is wrong with her voicemail. He tells her to give him a call. Morris tells Pratt that he has a new plan. He wants Pratt to shoot him with the taser, but Pratt tells him no.

Gates brings Jordan back into the room with Mia. Mia thanks Jordan for all that he has done for her. “I’ve done it for us”, he tells her. She tells him that this past year has been a gift. She cries and tells him that things got a little confused during this time in their lives. As she is trying to break things off, Jordan makes an excuse to go out to the hallway. Gates follows after him.

Abby is on the plane and she flashes back to her wedding ceremony from Season 13's "I Don't".  She is telling Luka about a poem that she had read once. “I Carry Your Heart With Me" by E. E. Cummings.  She then flashes way back to where she first stole a kiss from Luka back in Season seven while sitting out in the ambulance bay. He is telling her that she is a good nurse, but she can be a great doctor. She continues to have flashbacks from when Luka gave her the compass for Christmas back in Season 12's episode "All About Christmas Eve". “It seems we always find each other”, he had told her. She tells him that she is pregnant. She also remembers when she asked Luka to ask her again to marry her from Season 13's "Dying Is Easy...".

Pratt asks Chuny if she has seen Brenner around. She tells him that he is in the room with the two elderly women playing peacekeeper. Brenner is asking them to forgive each other. Michelle tells Kelly that she is sorry that she hurt her. Kelly tells her that she is sorry that she didn’t use her full strength to catch her. Michelle has been messing around with Kelly’s boyfriend and they begin to fight again. Pratt and Brenner go out into the hall. Pratt gets on to him for not letting the med. students assist with important things. Brenner tells Pratt that Larry and Laverne are clueless. He wants to encourage them to find new careers. Pratt reminds him that it is a teaching hospital. Brenner leaves because his shift is over. He tells Pratt that he has a date with two women. Morris walks in and is glad to see Pratt. He asks him if he is ready to shoot him.

Gates has a talk with Jordan. Jordan is telling him about his dead fiancée Beth. They had met when he was a senior in college. They got engaged two years later. They never spent a day apart. It seems wrong when he lost her. Jordan snooped around until he found out who got her heart. “I was a man on a mission”. When he found Mia he wanted to stay connected. Gates tells him that it is time for him to let go of Beth. Sam comes and tells Gates that Mia’s stats are bottoming out. Her breathing is getting worse. Jordan lays his hand on her heart.

Chuny and Frank watch on as Pratt tasers Morris. Something happens with the taser and it does not discharge after five seconds like it should. Archie falls to the ground after it shuts off. It has been several seconds. Chuny and Neela check on him.

Jordan is still by Mia’s side. She has been is on a breathing machine that is keeping her alive. She is able to speak. She starts to talk to Jordan and he tells her that he knows.

Morris groans in an exam room. Chuny, Pratt, Frank and Neela look down at him. Morris is unable to move. Pratt tells him that he will be fine in a few hours. Morris doesn’t remember what happened. They tell him that the shock lasted for over two minutes. Morris is happy about it. “Nobody has ever been tasered this long before”, he tells them. “It’s publishable”. He tells them that he would hug them, but he can’t move his arms.

Mia is getting better and Jordan tells her that he is going to go home before he goes to work. He will call her tomorrow. Jordan thanks Dr. Gates for his help. He knows it will be hard to go on when a piece of the girl he loved for so long will not be a part of his life. Gates tells him that he and Mia can still be friends, but Jordan says that it won’t be the same and walks away. Sam tells Gates that it is almost 6A.M. and that “it’s like a ghost town in here for once.” Gates tells her that Exam 4 is open and for her to go get some rest. They flirt around and Sam goes in to Exam 4. She reaches out and pulls Gates in the room with her and start to kiss and make out.

Abby is in the Croatian airport and sees Luka in the distance. She walks quickly over to him and they embrace each other.
