Ms. Pearson begs Dr. Potter to keep a critically ill man alive after 'time's up.' Potter can hold the patient awake for five minutes but warns repeating the emergency method will kill him. His heartbeat slows as staff scramble and Potter says he rescued him just in time; otherwise they'd have no chance to question him. Ms. Pearson says she doesn't care if he dies so long as he can answer her. The episode ends with the patient unstable, the five-minute limit looming, and a voice greeting Zoie while Felix remains unresponsive, leaving crucial answers unresolved.
