When Bashir Hamed finds himself at the site of a tragic accident, his medical training takes over as he works to save the wounded. At York Memorial Hospital, the staff treat patients from the accident while concerns arise about their Chief of Emergency Medicine, Dr. Jed Bishop.

When Bash and Mags work together to treat a patient with a tricky diagnosis, Mags realizes that Bash’s experience as a doctor in Syria has led to an instinct-based approach. Head nurse Claire Malone is concerned that Dr. Bishop is already working following his accident. June struggles to put her foot down with Dr. Singh concerning the needs of a patient, and Theo works to build a connection with Bash.

As Bash's future at the hospital hangs in the balance, he diagnoses a young patient with a rare disease that could have been prevented. Mags is faced with a case she cannot solve, as June tries to keep her personal life private. Meanwhile, Theo drives through the night to spend a day with his family in Sudbury.

Bash is divided between his work at the hospital and a patient he is helping to treat remotely in Syria. Dr. Bishop puts extra pressure on Bash, while Theo feels powerless when something happens to one of his daughters back home. Meanwhile, a patient puts Mags’ moral convictions to the test, and June tries to improve her social skills.

Bash does his best to celebrate Eid with his sister Amira, but she wishes they could continue the traditions they had back home. At the hospital, Bash has difficulty respecting a patient’s decision, while Mags tries to gather all the information they need to save a gunshot victim. Theo treats a teenage patient who wants to avoid telling his parents why he’s in the hospital.

An incident at work causes Bash to second-guess himself. Mags is inspired by a firefighter devoted to her work, even if it means risking her life on a daily basis, and June must learn to work with others. Meanwhile, Theo celebrates his birthday for the first time away from his family, and is faced with a young patient with a big plea.
