Funny, exciting, moving and heartbreaking. Accident scenes are exciting as always + heartwarming stories always make up a great episode.

And with more treatment scenes this time, more medical terms used XD

*condition of Aizawa's 2nd patient in the cold storage warehouse, Iizuka

epidural hematoma - also known as epidural bleeding, a type of traumatic brain injury in which a buildup of blood occurs between the dura mater (the tough outer membrane of the central nervous system) and the skull.
*Aizawa's initial diagnosis of Iizuka

trepanning - also known as trepanation, trephination, trephining or making a burr hole, is a surgical intervention in which a hole is drilled or scraped into the human skull, exposing the dura mater to treat health problems related to intercranial disease or release pressured blood buildup from an injury

This episode made me think again how tough it is to work in the medical field, especially for doctors. No matter how skilled you are or no matter how noble your intentions are, not everything goes as planned and in the end, what matters most are results.

As a Team Aizawa viewer from the very start, it's heartbreaking to see how bothered he is with the results of Kanade's operation. And what's even more frustrating, I think the worse is yet to come next episode once they show us what actually happened in the operation. Did Aizawa really make a mistake? I'm like, unbelievable, but then, Aizawa is human too and he did mention there was also another operation that night on an ICU patient. Doctors get tired too :(

Shiraishi talked about discouragement. A loss of confidence or enthusiasm; dispiritedness. I think all of us get to experience this at one point in our lives and as what have been said, discouragement paves the way for change, to grow. Right now, Aizawa is going through this and we all know Hiyama went through this in Season 2 and we also see now how she moved on from that setback. Even the interns had to overcome that loss of confidence as well. While it's said that results matter most now, it's also shown that growth never stops.

Here are the interesting points (and questions) again for me:

- Saejima returns to work! And what better way to show her return by her scaring off the now seniors doctors, even Aizawa XD I love every single detail of that scene. Hiyama laughing off Yukimura's story about Saejima, Shiraishi quickly agreeing to Saejima being scary, Aizawa's wary looks as the girls continue then he finally notifies them of Saejima's presence, Saejima's appearance by parting the IV bags, Shirashi and Hiyama's flowery nice words towards Saejima, Saejima's glares, Hiyama's obvious nervousness they're doing heli duty together the next day, the girls' "rounds" escape, Aizawa glancing at Saejima and gets taken aback. Obviously my favorite scene XD Precious lighthearted moment.

- Hiyama and Natori. Before the season started, I never thought they'd be the senior/junior that would connect especially since I thought Natori's character description was close to Shiraishi. But come Episode 2, I noticed Natori got to mention a bit about his father and Hiyama listened to him with no judgments. Compared to interns' conversation in Episode 3, Yokomine quickly dismissed Natori when he mentioned it's not like he really wanted to be a doctor. Anyway, in this episode, it shows how opposite Hiyama and Natori are towards the patients but with this, they got to learn from each other. Hiyama saw how she could be in a better position if she was more like Natori and Natori was able to get close to his patient too in his own way. AND!!! Hiyama finally addressed him Natori ;____;

- Aizawa x Saejima, You have to admit, the strongest doctor x nurse combination. Tried and tested since Season 1. The most skilled doctor and nurse. I love how Aizawa asked for Saejima to go to the site and even more seeing Saejima moved hearing this, her face lighting up showing how much she wants it so bad.

- Watch and learn Yukimura. So after Saejima taught Yukimura to make the atmosphere better with her presence, Yukimura learns that being skilled as a flight nurse is not only learning on site but being perceptive and gaining experience from every day activities. In this case, enthusiasm surely cannot rival experience. And I surely bet Yukimura got totally exhausted with Aizawa ordering her around XD

- The flight suit camera and monitor. We get treated again to another modern technology in the medical field. Shiraishi was able to help out the interns remotely. And yay for Haitani overcoming his cowardice. Which brings me...

- Why does Aizawa always know the right thing to say? This made me remember how Aizawa supported Fujikawa in S2E2. And also, this shows the second time(?) Aizawa has helped out Shiraishi. I know we are not to count since they're a team but I feel like the time for Shiraishi to support Aizawa is soon to come. The question though is, will Aizawa accept it? Well he has too, he needs it.

- The entire organ extraction procedure was both overwhelming and somehow eerie. I'm like Tachibana, who thought that many people are involved? And speaking of Tachibana, imagine how frustrating and painful it is to see that heart that could have been for his son being taken away. He was even next in the order!! Inoue reminded him though that through that procedure, 6 lives have been saved from 1.

- Other small details: Shiraishi handing the bag to Aizawa, Fujikawa and Saejima in the heli and he asks her if she's alright , Yokomine and Haitani working together to save the patient and taking responsibility until the end, Hiyama mentioning Nogami Tsubasa and what she learned from it, recalling Tadokoro-sensei's advice.

STORY #7 (2017.8.21 MON UPDATE)

Aizawa Kousaku (Yamashita Tomohisa) visits the office of department head Saijou Akira (Sugimoto Tetta) and conveys his withdrawal as candidate for the Toronto University residency. Asked by Saijou if the cause is Amano Kanade's (Tanabe Ririka) postoperative progress, Aizawa goes out of the room with no particular reason. Shinkai Hiroki (Ando Masanobu) then arrives and gets surprised hearing from Saijou about Aizawa's withdrawal.

On the way to the lifesaving floor, Aizawa meets Shiraishi Megumi (Aragaki Yui). Shiraishi was worried that Kanade's surgery and lifesaving surgery is piling up and Aizawa hasn't written the surgery minutes. However, Aizawa tells Shiraishi it doesn't concern her and leaves.

Hiyama Mihoko (Toda Erika) and Ogata Hirotsugu (Maruyama Tomomi) are in rehabilitation. Soon, Ogata will be transferred to the rehabilitation department for his welfare but it's tough, for Hiyama can't think of him as a patient. Natori Souma (Arioka Daiki) gazes at them looking like a married couple and teases Hiyama, what is good with Ogata anyway?

In the CS room, Fujikawa Kazuo (Asari Yousuke) asks Yokomine Akari (Araki Yuko) and company the reason why they aim to be doctors. Haitani Shunpei (Narita Ryo) answers when he was young, he had the experience of being saved by Doctor Heli.

At that time, request for Doctor Heli comes in. 3 persons are injured in a railroad crossing accident. Doctor Heli immediately takes off to the site but an unexpected situation occurs...
