The concern of Leah's parents is quite justified. They care about their daughter and want the best for her. But I liked that Sean didn't turn a blind eye to it and is trying to establish contact with them. It's a shame for the career of this gymnast girl, so much work has been done to then miss everything because of some pills. But it's good that he and his father rethought everything and, hopefully, found a common language. But about Lim, more than once everyone wrote that she needed help. It was clearly shown here that she needed help, but she would not ask for it herself. So the approach to Glassman, in my opinion, is the best decision on Claire's part.

Well, what's on Sean's mind is on his tongue. It would be sad if there was something bad on his mind. but in the case of Sean, everything is extremely transparent, logical, and correct. therefore, he cannot fail to impress everyone with his spontaneity.
Claire is absolutely right about Lim. pulling away would be a mistake. Lim is not adequate and needs outside help. It's worth fighting for. and Glassman, I'm sure, will find the right approach.

Another great episode! Thanks to Sean for the emotions and explanations that not every adult can give.

Well, now Lim will still be offended and angry at Claire, and she liked them so much (Maybe later, of course, she will understand that Claire acted for the benefit of her friend.

Sean has shown himself to be insightful in this episode. I think, of course, that Leah's parents were more confused by Sean's illness, but after his conversation with them, they changed their minds about him, albeit not completely. Regarding Glassman and his relationship with Leah, despite the fact that everything is mostly smooth between Sean and Leah right now, he, like any parent, worries about Sean. I'm also worried about Sean, because in case of any problems in the relationship, he will suffer the most. Claire is right, even though she is friends with Lim, she is right. Lim, with his unwillingness to seek help, can cause much more harm not only to himself, but also to patients.

I really hope that Claire will be able to help Lim, as Morgan and Melendez helped Claire at the time, otherwise you really don't want a disastrous outcome for Lim, you realize the seriousness of the situation because of how many episodes this topic has been stretched, so you are afraid of some kind of explosion. I hope it will work out, I love Lim..........

I think absolutely any parent would react the same way to Sean, we are always scared of what we don't know. Moreover, not all autistic people are geniuses, and not all practicing surgeons. All they see is that he's not like everyone else. They don't know Sean as a person, they don't know his positive sides, but they know their daughter well. Leah was quite irresponsible and frivolous until recently. And her parents decided that this was another one of her regular quirks. And they decided that she was not ready to be responsible for a relationship with a person with autism. This is also true, the film is certainly good, but in life everything is more difficult when you have to think about every step so as not to excite Sean, like a stain on Glassman's tie.
In the end, I'm glad they gave them another chance. That Sean has shown himself to be mature and conscious.
As for Claire, I think she did the right thing. Of course, there will be a quarrel, but at least this way she will save Lim's reputation. After all, if she does something, then everything will be trampled from her position. It is possible that the license will be revoked. Claire is acting solely in the best interests of Lim and the patients, and Lim will understand this in time.

In fact, an amazing series in many ways, which is not coincidentally called Parenting. And there are 4 stories here that are all about "parental duty", or rather its manifestation - acceptance, but from different sides.
1. Leah's (and Sean's) relationship with her parents, and many comments have already been written about them above. Indeed, many parents feel that they continue to know their grown-up children and that they know how to do the right thing. The most amazing thing is when they are able to perceive signals from the outside, so not only Sean is good here, but also Leah's parents, who are ready to dive into the unknown - to get to know Sean, and give their daughter a chance to show responsibility, care and love.
2. Father-daughter relationship. For some reason, very little has been written about this. And I even had tears, because in this whole situation you recognize yourself, because I was raised in the need to "be the best, bring home fives, and go to 1000 and 1 circle," and, of course, you grow up with the oppressive feeling that you can't be loved just for what you are. And after the series, there is hope that these words of unconditional love will be spoken to all children, even if they have grown up. It's probably a parental duty.
3. Taking care of his niece Dr. Andrews. In fact, this is an example of the fact that it is not necessary to have children to worry, impose your vision of correct behavior and have dreams about the future of a loved one.
4. My favorite thing is that at work, where you work 3 days in a row, you can't help but become a family, and there will always be someone (thank you, Claire) who can tell you at the right moment that Glassman's "parental duty" is to take care of Lim.

take care of your family, no matter what kind of kinship you are actually related to.

The series has become very tight for me. There are no dynamics, Sean's not interesting problems, Lim's incomprehensible problems. If she was worried about Melendez's death, then why was she only starting to worry now?
I think it was necessary to close the series for season 3, everything is laconically finished there: Claire recovered from the loss of her mother; Park got together with his wife; Sean and Leah started dating. One Resnick remained undisclosed as a character.
Now the series have become empty, and it is not interesting to follow the residents.

@StarUn: Lim, of course, is worried about Melendez's death, but now we are shown that she is tormented by memories of the coronavirus period. As a doctor, of course, she had seen many deaths in her life, but such a large number of deaths at once, continuously, knocked her down. And no, it doesn't have to show up right away. Often our feelings accumulate, and at first we just feel bad – so that it is not visible from the outside – and then it gets worse and worse.

Under each episode, the same type of comments about how the series rolled down. Am I definitely not reading the Walking Dead branch?

@Orangeice: the main question is why those for whom the series has slipped don't quit
It turns out " The mice cried, stabbed, but continued to eat the cactus"

Along with the question of why they write about their fascinating sufferings under each episode. Apparently, I like to watch and write, but I don't want to admit it.

Показалось, будто отец Лии - антипрививочник, а мать - алкоголичка. Но по крайней мере мать наверное пила много из-за неуверенности в себе или потому что чувствовала себя неловко? А то создалось впечатление, будто на ужине она много пила, но про алкогольные проблемы ни слова...
Думал Клэр также скажет Лим, что её мать всё-таки умерла, т. к. не смогла преодолеть тягу к алкоголю и сделает Лим ещё одно сравнение-предупреждение.

племянница Эндрюса как-то бесит. вообще какая-то ненужная линия. надеюсь, они уже закончат это.
тот полиамор, живущий в фургоне у больницы, вообще непонятный. не раскрыли тему до сих пор (я даже не помню как его зовут).
Шон молодец в этой серии, он учится общению и здорово с этим справляется.
Клэр тоже молодец и хороший друг, я считаю. когда был болен Глассман, Шон тоже всё решил через другого человека, который мог на него повлиять. и тут тоже самое.
надеюсь, Лим начнёт лечение

Шон ни разу не сказал слово "секс"!

Учитывая тягу сценаристов в этом сезоне устраивать ему неловкие ситуации, я за эту встречу с родителями переживала больше, чем сами герои.

Вообще хочу сказать, что Шон гениален в принятии не только своих особенностей, но и в реакции окружающих на них.
