Building on the success of its first season, the second season of The Pitt quickly hinted at trouble ahead for several characters, both doctors and patients. A lot of focus has been on Dr. Robby’s planned sabbatical at the end of the current season, but his relaxing getaway seems a little suspicious.
I’m watching Dr. Whitaker handle Louie again, and it’s almost…normal now. He’s back with a toothache and needs a drain put in, which happens a lot for him. It’s a bit unsettling how comfortable Whitaker seems with it all, like he’s done this a million times – I have a feeling that won’t last. And to top it off, it looks like the writers are already setting things up to make us really upset about another character we love. It’s always something with The Pitt.
The Pitt Is Foreshadowing A Blunder For Mel
The second season of The Pitt opens with Mel facing a malpractice lawsuit from a former patient, and she’s clearly upset by it. Her distress is noticeable, and Dr. Robby tries to help her focus. Throughout the episode, Mel appears detached and lost in thought while working in the emergency room, struggling to stay present.
Episode 2, titled “8:00 A.M.”, suggested Mel would have a fall, and that’s exactly what happened. A patient running from the police accidentally bumped into her, causing her to fall off her stool. Everyone understands it wasn’t her fault, and while she may have been distracted, she didn’t seem to be seriously hurt… at least not this time.
Okay, so the whole legal battle is clearly about to explode into the main storyline, and honestly, that tumble Mel took feels like a minor inconvenience now. This isn’t just a rough patch for her; I have a feeling things are about to go from bad to really bad, and we’re only seeing the first act of this disaster.
Mel’s Anxiety Will Become A Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
Dr. Al-Hashimi unexpectedly interrupted a supportive moment for Dr. Robby by stating she’s never faced a malpractice lawsuit. However, she also acknowledged that Mel’s charting showed consistently careful and detailed medical reasoning, essentially supporting the show’s position that Mel acted appropriately in that instance.
Just because she hasn’t made a mistake before doesn’t mean she won’t now. Dr. Robby tried to comfort Mel both because he’s concerned for her well-being and because he understands how this situation could impact her work. The show, The Pitt, doesn’t shy away from portraying Mel’s struggles, and this is obvious in everything that happened before her fall in the “8:00 A.M.” episode.
It’s funny, really. Mel’s biggest struggle – her need for everything to be perfect – is actually what’s going to lead to things falling apart. I’m worried that her constant second-guessing, her obsessing over a possible past error, is going to cause Dr. King to make a huge mistake as the season unfolds. I’m really invested in seeing how this plays out in The Pitt’s second season!
