Plot summary

At Oceanside Wellness, friendships are tested and secrets revealed when Addison discovers that Naomi is concealing the practice's financial problems. Dell becomes frustrated at having to keep Naomi's secrets and quits. Addison and Naomi also clash over the ethical issue of whether a patient's baby should be delivered 3 months early (and likely die), so his cord blood could be used to save their other child, who is dying. Meanwhile, Violet wonders what secret Cooper is keeping from her, while Cooper himself has to decide whether or not to reveal a medical secret to a patient.
