Season 6 Episode 5 Recap
Episode 5 is the most recent episode of the show, which aired on October 31, 2022. The series, titled “Growth Opportunities” is a Halloween-set episode, which follows Shaun and his colleagues at the hospital who come into action to treat Skylar with a genetic disorder, which has caused liver failure.
The real drama starts when the illness reveals that Skylar was born as a result of an affair. The supposed affair is between Skylar’s mom and her father’s roommate, Mick. More tension adds when Mick is the only compatible donor. Mick initially refuses to help but agrees to undergo the transplant over time, to save Skylar’s life.
While this happens, another situation transpires, where Park, Jordan and Danny treat a man named Chris, diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Chris, is a carer who looks after his brother Ollie, who happens to suffer from a traumatic brain injury.
Chris is turned to shambles upon learning that his cancer is terminal. Park requests Shaun to share his story of coping with autism, in the hopes of putting Chris and Ollie at ease, which Shaun agrees.
Meanwhile, Shaun faces another crisis when his friend Lim refuses a potential surgery that could help her paralysis. Danica has persuaded Lim to make the decision and this will probably cause some tension in the near future.
