Season Finale: Awakening

"Beep... beep... beep..." By George's ear. No longer the beeping of the countdown timer, but the steady rhythm of the ECG monitor.

He awoke in the emergency room, permeated with the pungent odor of disinfectant. The three-hour ordeal—Steve, a husband betrayed by his wife and younger brother; Adrian, a professor who chose death as his final act; and Frank, a desperate veteran striving to save his daughter—resembled a dream so protracted it seemed to span an entire lifetime. But he knew it wasn't a dream. He saved them and redeemed himself.
George gazed at the rising sun outside the window, and a new realization dawned on him: in every seemingly hopeless situation, there lies a glimmer of hope. If you can see through the truth, if you dare to make a choice.
Death has departed. But George knows this is only the end of the first season. In this city of regrets and secrets, countless more 'three-hour' moments are still ticking away.
And he, survived.
