The episode begins with Dr. Graham asking Hans to give Elise a tour of the facility and explain the processes and patient care system to her. During the tour of the emergency room, a patient with severe chest pain and shortness of breath is admitted. Following standard protocol, Hans calls for a defibrillator and Dr. Graham's assistance. However, Elise, using her diagnostic skills, recognizes that the patient has a tension pneumothorax—a life-threatening condition where air in the chest cavity puts pressure on the heart and lungs. To the astonishment of those around her, she decides to act immediately.

Elise's quick intervention, in which she uses a needle to relieve the pressure in the patient's chest, saves the patient's life. For her actions, she is praised by Dr. Graham, which is respected by everyone given his reputation for being sparing with compliments. The medical team is impressed by Elise's knowledge and skills and becomes curious about her background and expertise.

As the episode progresses, Elise continues to demonstrate her extraordinary medical abilities, not only through her clinical skills but also through her innovative approach to treating a patient with a gunshot wound to the spleen. Despite her colleagues' skepticism and the traditional boundaries of medical practice, Elise proposes a daring surgical procedure to remove the spleen—a concept unfamiliar to her colleagues. With Dr. Graham's reluctant approval and the unexpected assistance of Ron, a mysterious figure with ties to the imperial family ("the prince or her former fiancé"), Elise successfully performs the surgery, further establishing herself as a medical genius.
