“He just saw her symptoms.” Yes, the exact thing I want my doctor to see lmfao

“Shaun didn’t care, he didn’t see her dreams, he just saw her symptoms.” Yeah, that’s called being a logical and Good Doctor.

Not always, that was Melendez's point. Sometimes patient wishes supersede what you might believe to be the right choice.

I’m not saying they should not do the right choice the best option to save the persons life I’m saying it Hass to be the patients choice, though some people may feel that they would rather be dead than lose something. That’s a big part of them.

And this is one of the reasons I support the Lim/Melendez pairing. Melendez has always noticed every aspect of Lim and has come out admiring her for all of them.

[@quadeong7453]

I love how I’m this scene Melendez both comforts and calls out Morgan that she’s so busy trying to be the best surgeon, she isn’t acting like it.

[@송은섭-y4s]

Morgan defended herself by disparaging Shaun instead of self-reflection, even though she had her patient's arm amputated due to her misjudgment. Morgan is the last doctor needs to be comforted

[@whateverbros]

She is just a narcissistic bitch who had to portray herself as the better doctor in front of the patients

[@davidsultana7885]

How ironic now she is no longer a surgeon doesn't seem to learn

[@silverstarlightproductions1292]

This was the first time we saw Morgan act more like a human being. I seriously wonder what her story is because it obviously effected her judgement call with this patient. Maybe we'll start to see some character development with her.

[@MsJubjubbird]

Well we know her parents are doctors. I feel like she's the typical rich, smart beautiful princess who was popular and gifted in everything. There was nothing she couldn't excel at or manipulate/bully her way through excelling at or get through with connections. Now she's in the real world with a real job and she's had her first experience of learning that the real world isn't like that and she's not the only smart talented person in the world and there are people immune to her manipulation. It's a common experience for young adults from wealthy backgrounds to learn

[@sarahgreeniverse7499]

MsJubjubbird she didn’t grow up rich. Her mom died when she was six and her father instantly married a “child-hating bitch with a butt load of debts “. She told Clair in first season. She does want a job and she does want to save lives. I think competing is the only way she has learnt to survive. It’s her huge mistake to not to take Shaun seriously. She paid. But she is growing.

[@Andsoitgoes1]

@@sarahgreeniverse7499 No her parents are alive and happily married- Morgan lied to Claire about her background. Claire looked into her and called her out on it. Morgan then justified it saying" Coming from privilege, no respect"

[@malehosebolai4568]

Best guess: she knew about her arthritis diagnosis and the impairment of functioning it'll cause and end her dream of being a surgeon, so she may have identified with the patient, seeing that the patient's dreams would come to an end.

[@AnaGarcia-bb7qj]

well, Morgan is super annoying, but i love this scene because Melendez told his story with Lim.

[@isao_the_2nd]

@Ana Garcia No I think this scene makes Melendez a bigger and more likeable person than reznick's trashy bitch ass! So having said that,🖕fuck her and everyone else who's been mistreating Shaun! 💯

[@gdesiree29]

I never liked her . She felt like she know everything. She has a cocky attitude. Once shawn told her that they needed to remove the patient's finger, she should had taken it seriously . At least they would have saved her arm and hand. I feel so bad for the patient. Waking up from surgery and seeing that your arm is gone. She thinks shawn is a baby and doesnt know what hes talking about. I'm glad the patient said that it was her fault So she can step back and think what she did wrong

[@gdesiree29]

@Sharon Jensen I agree but this whole thing could have been prevented if she listened. That is what I'm upset about. I felt for the patient 😫

[@ThePrincessCH]

@Sharon Jensen I think the reason he treated Reznik differently is because she and Melendez share one very prevalent trait they're both arrogant. As Shaun's told Melendez, "being arrogant makes you a better surgeon", but in Morgan's case her arrogance cost her patient a limb. Maybe he was trying to show her that being arrogant doesn't work for her.

Shoving Morgan totally deserving that, I love Melendez despite being against Shaun at the first time. I really liked him, because while he didn't like Shaun, he did listen to him whenever it came to the patient. He never lets anything get personal when they were working. Professional, I like that. That and he manages to see Shaun annoying, irritating and someone who should totally hone their social skills, but Morgan? Melendez was not nice to Shaun but Morgan was a total disrespecting bint to him! She amputated a girl's arm because she was being competitive! That poor girl!

[@clintonnickens1004]

LESSON FOR LIFE:: STOP COMPETING!!!!! THAT CAN MAKE YOU DO STUPID THINGS. JUST DEDICATE YOURSELF TO WHAT YOU LOVE AND DOMINATE. COMPETITION IS FOR LOSERS.

[@makowako6035]

A lot of people hate this character (Dr. Morgan) But I really like her. This episode is the start of her development. The writers have a lot of potential in this character.

[@makowako6035]

@Sharon Jensen Yeah, that is why I like her character so much. She acts like a know-it-all and only cares about herself but honestly I think it is just a facade. She made a mistake now and like I stated in my original comment: I think she can grow from this point forward.

[@makowako6035]

@Sharon Jensen Oh believe me, I have met similar people too in my Life, and not only females. I am not authistic ( even though I share quite some similarites with autistics). But I have a speaking disorder: I stutter. I stutter since I was barely 6 years old so I know how it feels when people think you are lesser than them. I know how it feels to be treated as inferior but I worked hard and almost got rid of it. I will always stutter, it is something that will never go away but still, I am able to participate in conversations now. Like I mentioned I have met people who were like Reznick but I believe in a second chance. She is mean to Shaun but I think she will change from this point forward. If I were Shaun I would give her a second chance. Like I said in my original comment: the writers can do a lot with this character.

[@makowako6035]

@Sharon Jensen Indeed, if the writers handle her character with good, she will undergo an amazing development. And I agree that it is not always a person's fault. Like you said in your earlier comment: she thinks she is helping him. When I stuttered back in elementary school, both teachers and students completed my sentences because I was unable to say them without stuttering. They thought they helped me but they only made me feel worse about myself. Some things seem bad but were done with good intentions.

[@ThePrincessCH]

@Sharon Jensen What did Morgan do wrong in that episode?

[@selinapoochie]

Exactly, all I see is people with chips on their shoulders complaining that this was because she was rich and privileged. They are totally missing her real flaws and so her opportunity to be humble and grow

[@somwongbulipsurt7901]

I find Morgan way more likeable than Lea. There, I said it. She’s bloody flawed and arrogant, but watching her actually develop into a better doctor and person while maintaining her drive is fun to watch. Way more than Leas crap.

[@mitchellries256]

It be fair to say that we shouldn't have to worry much (if not at all) about Morgan not working as a team. This is definitely a major turn of events for her.

I can tell this is a good show because of how angry the comments are.

[@goofballproductions7629]

She's imo, one of the WORST characters, it's hard for me to find her ''like-able'' at most, hopefully she get some character development and stops acting selfish and ignorant.

[@bookcreator]

@Sharon Jensen So is everyone else on the team. Claire had never been around an autistic person, either, but she still treated Shaun with compassion

[@ThePrincessCH]

@ILoveDisney Movies Has Claire told anyone else about her mother because I'm pretty sure you're allowed to take time off to grieve a loved one.

[@Kuurankettu]

How about now? One of my favorites in the show. Since the first episodes she was in, she has stepped up so well! She has learned very quickly to "handle" Shaun and sometimes even seems to be the only one seeing Shaun an actual human being, communicating with him like he didn't have any disorders. Love how she sometimes is like supportive sister to Claire helping her to deal with her mom problems. Being only one noticing when something is bothering her and making effort to help her. She seems to be more compassionate now, but I still love to see her compete constantly with Dr Park :D Sometimes they seem like siblings too! And she has shown vulnerability. Many times. And empathy. I wish other doctor would finally start to see her as a friend. She seems to be really lonely.

[@rainyday6649]

So she is mostly upset because Shaun knew and she didn’t? Seriously?

[@gdesiree29]

Ikr Her ego is too high 🙄

[@MsJubjubbird]

She's a smart beautiful girl who has grown up in an ivory tower and can get through any situation through being competitive. IT didn't work for her this time and she can't work out who it didn't go her way this time like it goes her way every other time. It's common for young adults who have grown up with a silver spoon in their mouth to experience that for the first time in the real world

[@sarahgreeniverse7499]

MsJubjubbird she didn’t grew up with a silver spoon in her mouth. Her mom died when she was six and her father instantly married a “child-hating bitch with a butt load of debts “. She told Clair in the first season. She does want a job and she does want to save lives. I think competing is the only way she has learnt in order to survive. But she is growing.

[@MsJubjubbird]

@@sarahgreeniverse7499 Clair called her out on it being a lie later. She just made that up so she would eliminate Chair's chance to play the sob story card. Everything is a competition for her and that includes getting the most sympathy. She will learn that what works in school and College and parents who are proud of their little angel doesn't work in the workplace. But the only way to do it is through reality checks like these.

[@mitchellries256]

I think it's a mix of both that and what happened to the girl. Either way, she's upset with the fact that she made the wrong choice.

[@WestbrickFansGotNoBrains]

as then a few episode later she support hans in firing or remove shaun from the position of surgeon and said maybe hans is right that shaun is not good enough.

[@barileageorgebrianf.5393]

Yes Gurl, because you are a doctor you should see the symptoms not your ego.

[@Stillreal312]

In her own Words her job is ”go in do the surgery and get out”.

[@Dan-qy6zv]

"He didn't see her dreams, he just saw her symptoms." Yeah. And he saw a future of her having one less finger instead one missing arm. Unlike you.

[@ChauLe-vn4oq]

So I guess Lim back in her residency is kinda Shaun in this episode, and Melendez is the male counterpart of Morgan

[@xionstevens4955]

I have a question so in a real life scenario can the patient (the woman who lost her arm) can she sue the doctor that treated her (Dr. Morgan) or will they make her sign to make sure she can not sue the hospital after surgery? Sorry im not an expert in law and dont know if hospitals have different policies.

[@douglasbrown4567]

Morgan to Shaun: true, but I know she's not in middle school. Which means she would've thought about you as a man. She wouldn't want to settle with just one, Innocent, peck.

[@LillianLintonn]

But a doctor is supposed to see your symptoms, not your dreams.

[@kathiam.rosadocruz398]

Okay, he just saw her symptoms. Symptoms that could've saved her arm and only lost one finger to none if she would've listened to him so i don't feel bad. I'm sorry, but it's her fault.
