She agrees, but makes sure the surgery is under way before she talks to Matt. When Sean adds an on-site nursery for the impending baby, Liz feels like he in intruding on her life, and she prepares to leave.Ĭhristian strikes a deal with Ava: If she dumps Matt, they will perform the surgery on baby Rafael. She sits in on Hiro’s consult, and the guys let her ask “The Question.” As surgery begins, Liz confesses that she has been unaware of the Why behind the surgeries, and she has a new appreciation for what Sean and Christian do. The logo has Cruz beneath the other two doctors, a reflection of her support. Liz is promoted to partner, and the practice is now McNamara/Troy/Cruz. In the understatement of the millennium, one of them comments, “He died a very happy man.” Rather than mourning him, his co-stars praise the fact that he lived and died on his own terms. Unfortunately, in the middle of filming an orgy scene, Hiro has another heart attack just after climax. As Christian puts it, his audience should be reminded of life, not death. In order to do so, he needs to have his heart surgery scar repaired. With over 100 films to his credit, he is ready to launch his “Grandfather” niche in the US.

Hiro entered the business after his wife died, and retirement left him feeling unvalued. With the complexity we have come to expect, it’s great to see a character who is left feeling “excited…terrified…grateful.”Īt the center of it all is Hiro Yoshimura, a 73 year old Japanese porn star. Not only have you given us one of the most provocative, unexpected and versatile shows ever to air on television, you have given us a finale that is tender and gentle without sacrificing the style and daring that made it great. And some finales were just flaky for the sake of being different.

Others have chosen to avoid making a special episode, as if the characters continued to live their lives without us. Some have killed off major characters to emphasize the word “finale” and to bump up the pathos. While some have been truly riveting ( The Shield, of course, comes to mind for me), so many have fallen short on the expectations alone. Sean McNamaraĮver since CBS aired the epic finale of MASH, every show has been chasing the perfect grand finale.
