A great episode.

I, contrary to the other reviewer, liked that Helen did that. Yes, it's unethical, but also quite romantic. I mean, from the top of my head, one other character did something unethical (ignoring a patient's DNR) and nobody was up in arms about that.

I also loved that they included her in this plot because it means they're not trying to act like she had never been in the show (I know she was in the previous episode, but my point stands).

Wilder said « When you love someone, you will do anything to protect them. Even this. » and that sums it up well.

What Helen did was wrong but if you put yourself in her shoes, it's almost understandable. The chemo was not working and she was losing Max. In terms of values and character, I'd go so far as to say that this trial is a lesser deal than leaving Max at the altar alone and ending their engagement with a phone call. The latter is much more unforgivable.

I am glad that Max has moved on from her and that he has found love again with Wilder.

The plot with Bloom and Casey apartment hunting but constantly getting interrupted by EMT calls was also entertaining. Solid episode for a solid season.

Now off I go to watch the series finale!

Seems pointless at this point

I watched this episode and I wondered if there was any real relevance to bring out Helen Sharpe character's name once again, just to discredit her in Max's memory. This time as a doctor. Although we know what she did and why. She always stood up for diversity. They felt, that Max and Wilder need to consider her as being unethical, even if she had several really massive reasons to do it. But again, that was not her as she was portrayed before. I would genuinely want to find some real reasons for this, but I cannot. I'm in denial, that the writers would do this out of personal reasons against the actress or the relevance of her character. I just cannot believe. But nobody would ask that and probably we'll never get a honest answer.
