Flynn’s leadership is already under fire, and the pressure only mounts as frustrations over his controversial new system grow. Staff complaints pour in, with his decision to transfer patients to wards without securing beds causing chaos and conflict. The hospital is on edge, and Russell Whitelaw is paying close attention.

Seeing the brewing disaster, Russell pulls Flynn aside for a serious conversation. While he initially supported Flynn’s appointment as clinical lead, his patience is wearing thin. He makes it clear—his backing isn’t unconditional. But there’s more at stake than just hospital politics. Russell holds a personal secret that could shatter Flynn’s career—he knows about Flynn’s affair and the painful betrayal of his daughter.

With his leadership on shaky ground and his personal missteps catching up to him, Flynn is at a crossroads. Will Russell’s warning make him rethink his reckless approach, or is Flynn too determined to push forward, no matter the cost?
