Episode synopsis
Catherine is experiencing hallucinations and refuses Dr. Hartramph's urging to be admitted into a hospital. Her behavior is becoming increasingly manic and it isn't long before Mahmoud begins to piece together what she's seeing. Meanwhile, Bickman is reluctant to go back into the operating room after Joey's botched surgery. Catherine encourages Bickman to see Lina so that she can re-wire his brain. A woman confronts a knife-wielding man on the street and the team wonders if it's really a display of bravery or if she has an absence of fear.
About Black Box
Catherine Black is a world-famous neurologist at the state-of-the-art medical institution known as "The Cube". Catherine is brilliant, beautiful, and at the top of her game, though she's hiding a secret of her own: she's bipolar. Each week, the doctors on staff attempt to unravel the mysteries of the brain and are constantly challenged by cases never-before-seen on television. The medical stories are moving, bizarre and a visual feast. The personal stories are riveting. The patients have rare, highly visual, often hallucinogenic and startling conditions, which we’ll see through their eyes as Catherine diagnoses and treats them.
