When an elderly man collapses, his granddaughter invites Vincent Shaw, a man skilled in traditional medicine but without a medical license, to treat him despite her father's objections. Shaw attempts a risky acupuncture technique, restoring the man's heartbeat and sparking hope, but warns he can't cure the illness—only keep the patient alive. He urges them to find a miraculous doctor at a hospital who might fully revive the old man. The episode ends with tension over trusting Shaw’s unconventional methods and the search for this new doctor, leaving the patient's fate uncertain.
