Plus, Dr. Leela Devi (Anuja Joshi) discovers something about the sperm bank her twin, Padma (Aneesha Joshi), plans to use.

After his mom left them, he\u2019s been worried about Spencer leaving, too, the dad shares with Conrad. He feels safe at Chastain in preschool because Spencer works in IT. It\u2019s also Gigi who alerts them to Peter\u2019s double vision.<\/p>\n<p>Conrad brings Dr. Billie Sutton (Jessica Lucas) to consult, worried there could be a neurological cause. There\u2019s no evidence of a stroke or a bleed, but Peter\u2019s brain is swelling. She\u2019ll need to perform a craniectomy to relieve the pressure if it worsens, she warns, but Spencer wants to make sure that\u2019s a last resort. Conrad, personally invested since Gigi expects him to fix her friend and he promised he would, tries to delay that possibility as long as possible. (He doesn\u2019t want her to lose her best friend after losing her mom.)<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1039611\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1039611\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1039611\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi-640x570.jpg\" alt=\"Charlie Bodin, Matt Czuchry and Remington Blaire Evans in The Resident\" width=\"640\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi-640x570.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi-324x289.jpg 324w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi-768x684.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi-570x508.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-spencer-conrad-gigi.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1039611\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom Griscom\/FOX<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>But it\u2019s not until another talk with Gigi that Conrad figures out what\u2019s wrong with her friend \u2014 just as Billie\u2019s about to begin operating: urea cycle disorder, a genetic enzyme deficiency that makes it hard to break down protein. Peter got sick that morning after sharing his father\u2019s protein shake, and he\u2019s been eating roast beef since his mom left.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Love_Tragedy\"><\/span>Love &amp; Tragedy<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>As Devon tells the interns, it\u2019s at the senior living facility that they\u2019ll be treating one of the most challenging patient populations and tackling complex medical cases.

He remembers people and events from the past, but his short-term memory is going. And so while he can tell the interns about past patients and try to inspire them to go into geriatrics, he can\u2019t remember all of the medications his wife, Gloria (Vicki Lawrence), is on. \u201cShe not only has my heart, she is now my head,\u201d he says of her. \u201cIn every way, she takes care of me.\u201d Watching them, Kit can\u2019t help but wonder, \u201cDo you think we\u2019ll still be that in love when we\u2019re their age?\u201d Bell asks, \u201cWhy wouldn\u2019t we be?\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1039609\" style=\"width: 638px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1039609\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-1039609\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur-628x570.jpg\" alt=\"Manish Dayal, Vicki Lawrence and George Wyner in The Resident\" width=\"628\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur-628x570.jpg 628w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur-318x289.jpg 318w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur-768x697.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur-570x517.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/the-resident-517-devon-gloria-arthur.jpg 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1039609\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Tom Griscom\/FOX<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>After Gloria collapses, they bring her to the ER, where Devon and Zach (reluctantly, at first) begin going through all her medications. Since she could be suffering from side effects due to the drugs\u2019 interactions, they plan to take her off the ones she doesn\u2019t need and monitor her. But it gets to the point that surgery is her only, very risky option. Gloria is more worried about Arthur than herself, she admits to Bell. \u201cDo you know what it\u2019s like to find the love of your life this late in the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>?\u201d she asks. \u201cActually, I do,\u201d Bell tells her. (We <em>really<\/em> love how <em>The Resident<\/em> is handling Kit and Bell\u2019s relationship this season.)<\/p>\n<p>Things go south in the OR \u2014 even with Dr. AJ Austin (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) arriving to assist, and Devon and Zach realize Gloria has whipple disease too late: She dies on the table, and Kit comforts her husband. If she\u2019d been diagnosed and treated properly or got to them sooner, maybe they could\u2019ve done something. And with that, Zach has seen the bigger picture, just like Kravitz told the interns to, and maybe he\u2019ll be reconsidering his career path.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Preparing_for_the_Future\"><\/span>Preparing for the Future<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Padma decides to just go with her gut and chooses \u201cThe Right Stuff\u201d to be her sperm donor, after only reading his bio. But Leela digs into the sperm bank and discovers lawsuits claiming that donors have misrepresented themselves (not disclosing a history of schizophrenia, hiding a criminal record, and claiming college degrees when they\u2019re really dropouts). To make sure her sister is aware of the risks, she has Dr. Nolan (Michael Hogan) tell Padma the truth about what he\u2019s listed on his own sperm donor profile.<\/p>\n<p>That works, but Padma reconsiders her choice. However, she does come up with a solution. Later on the same day that she\u2019s told AJ about her plans to be a mother, she says that finding out Nolan was a sperm donor put the fear of God in her, so with Leela\u2019s eggs being retrieved in two weeks, she\u2019s decided to find a volunteer she trusts and cares about. \u201cI had a crazy idea. You and I are good friends now that we aren\u2019t lovers, and I wouldn\u2019t mind a kid a lot like you,\u201d Padma tells AJ. \u201cYou can do worse,\u201d he agrees. \u201cSo what if I did? Have a kid just like you?\u201d she asks, surprising him and giving him something to think about.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The Resident<\/em>, Tuesdays, 8\/7c, Fox<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
