    Summary

    When Peter reenters the lounge, Carter is standing in the same place he was when Peter left him, statuesque at the mirror, staring the dead-eyed stare of the once hopeful defeated. At the sound of the door latching shut he snaps out of whatever trance held him, putting on a smirk when he sees who has rejoined him.

    "I thought you were going home."

    "I am." The immobilizer swings unambiguously from his fist. Now that he's here, he's really not sure how to proceed. He looks down at the sling as if it will provide answers, catches himself, looks back up at Carter.

    The kid has noticed the immobilizer, too. He frowns. "Is…that for me?"

    Missing scene from "The Good Fight."

    Summary

    “You know that patient in Curtain 1 you asked me to monitor?” Carter trails off, and Peter motions at him to continue, exasperated.

    “…Well, he’s just… He’s acting pretty odd.”

    Peter feels a flash of deep irritation. “Odd how?” Peter prompts, voice hard.

    What is the point of having an intern to help cover scut if they can’t do a single thing by themselves?

    “Just…” Carter hesitates. Peter’s irritation grows. Carter must see it on his face, because he practically wilts. He continues, but his voice comes out considerably more meek. “He seems pretty volatile? And he’s been really aggressive with me and the nurses.”

    OR: Benton fails to take Carter's concerns about a patient seriously. The consequences are catastrophic.

    Summary

    At a rehab in Atlanta, suffering through the height of opioid withdrawal, John Carter comes to suspect that his worsening symptoms are indicative of something beyond simple drug withdrawal.

    He has appendicitis. He's sure of it.

    When John tries to tell his doctors, no one listens to him. No one believes him. To them, he's just a drug addict, doing what drug addicts do: drug seeking.

    Carter is alone, with no one to help him, as his condition rapidly deteriorates.
