The Pitt season 2 episode 2’s new trauma is more disastrous than any medical emergency — and it’s all thanks to AI

WARNING: spoilers for The Pitt season 2 episode 2 ahead.

Good grief is this place going to be my undoing, and I don't even work there. Last week was a chaotic return to The Pitt season 2, which has now shifted 10 months forward since the season 1 finale. That lands us in the thick of the Fourth of July weekend, which is all but asking for trouble.

Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) can't even plan to take a short sabbatical without things devolving into chaos before his eyes, with Langdon (Patrick Ball) busy trying to make amends for his season 1 sins, and Mel (Taylor Dearden) freaking out over an upcoming deposition. This is really only the tip of the iceberg in the HBO Max show, but it's new recruit Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi) who is completely changing the game.
