Plot Speculations for Episode 6 of The Good Doctor Season 5
The upcoming episode 6 will show a possible tiff between Shaun and Alex regarding a patient the former has been treating. The case actually is that Shaun has two patients under him. A young girl with an O-negative blood type could live a normal healthy life if transplanted with a heart as soon as possible. Meanwhile, the other patient is counting his days in the hospital.
Alex believes that the person who is already on his death bed can possibly donate his organs to save the lives of other patients, including the young girl. But Shaun doesn’t want to give up on the patient easily and wants to try till the very end. The clashing opinions will lead to an argument between the two, so much so that Shaun will even think of reporting Alex for his unethical suggestion.
What happened in episode 5 of The Good Doctor Season 5
The previous episode 5 of The Good Doctor Season 5 showed us Salen, telling the doctors their reviews as given by the patients they treated. There were mixed outcomes, with Audrey having impressive feedback while Shaun is lacking a proper connection with his patients. Also, Salen was unhappy with Mateo not visiting the hospital for some time while Shaun, on the other hand, looked after a recent patient named Mr. Song, who was injured in an accident.
Salen was disappointed with Mateo because he sent a patient to another hospital due to the lack of resources in their hospital. But Audrey supported Mateo and even went against Salen for that. This leads her into another country hospital by Marcus, which agitates her further. She then eventually calls up Mateo to make him come back for her and not work.
On the other hand, the injured patient, Mr. Song, is being treated by Shaun and Alex. His daughter Emily wanted to file a report for his injury, but Mr. Song denied it. Instead, it turned out that Mr. Song had a tumor as well, which would either make him paralyzed or live not more than a year. Eventually, it was decided that the tumor would be operated on to save his life. As the episode concluded, Shaun was given his new scores for performing well.
