Episode 3.04: What I Am
Airdate: October 12, 2006
A petite pregnant woman named Rebecca is ready to deliver but the doctors are concerned that the baby’s descent may somehow stop and, if so, they’ll have to do a C-section.

Shawn Sullivan, an outgoing and well-known Seattle car salesman who had surgery two days prior, wants to go home and go back to his usual life as he doesn’t want to lose his job and popularity. After agreeing to follow doctor’s orders, Shawn goes back home for a dreadful three-week recovery. There, he doesn’t follow one of the doctor’s rules which sends him back right to the ER for more surgery… and this time, it may cost him his popularity!
