They diagnose him with arterial stenosis, but disagree on the course of treatment. Crockett convinces the patient to have bypass surgery. When the power goes out during the surgery, Noah is called into the OR to assist. Crockett proposes to perform the surgery "off-pump" as the patient is not able to be put on bypass again, despite Noah's objections that it is too risky.
