'Sullivan's Crossing' Season 3: Chad Michael Murray, Scott Patterson navigate dating women committed to their careers
A big question in Sullivan's Crossing, after Maggie (Morgan Kohan) decided to stay in Nova Scotia, is how not being a practicing doctor would impact her. Now we're seeing Maggie try to balance her personal life, particularly with her boyfriend Cal (Chad Michael Murray), and that professional desire, specifically after being asked to consult on Glenn's (Dean Armstrong) medical case. Season 3, Episode 8 starts with Cal almost confronting Maggie about the letter he found in last week's episode, in which Maggie wrote to a former fling about needing to put her career first. But instead, Cal just says that he feels they haven't been spending much time together. While helping Rob (Reid Price) at the lodge (which has now been inspected and cleared to continue renovations), Cal tells him about the letter and that he thinks Maggie misses medicine more than she's letting on. Rob comforts Cal by saying that people's perspectives and priorities can change in life, and Cal shouldn't let that one letter get to him. Meanwhile, Sully (Scott Patterson) is in heartbreak mode. He's trying to call Helen (Kate Vernon), but she's not answering his calls. He's also trying to keep busy at the Crossing, clearly trying to take his mind off of Helen leaving. Maggie finds out that Helen left, through Edna (Andrea Menard), while also telling her dad that she's consulting on Glenn's case at the hospital, Sully's enemy, stressing that Glenn is really sick and that she took an oath to help people. "The Sully I know, he'd never turn his back on anyone," Maggie says. Sully agrees with her, but admits he's "on edge" after Helen left unexpectedly. That's when Maggie gets a call that Glenn took a turn for the worse, and she goes through his case again. Glenn came to the hospital with a tremor, requesting a prescription for anxiety medication, thinking he had the "yips," an involuntary muscle spasm. But the new piece of information is that he's developed a rash, similar to the firefighter who came to the hospital the other day, who was helping Rob work on the lodge. Now Maggie thinks there may be a connection. When Maggie talks to the firefighter, he tells her about his landscaping job, which he does when he's not at the firehall. He said his stomach's been off and he was tired before going to help Rob, but thought he was just coming down with something. Maggie has a breakthrough when Jacob (Joel Oulette) shares that the lichen samples he collected show signs of contamination with heavy metals, particularly arsenic, found in things like pesticides used in landscaping. It turns out that the firefighter works for the landscaping company Glenn uses at the golf course, and they were trying to use up pesticides that had recently been banned. Glenn had a particularly high exposure, because he lives and works there. Now that Glenn has answers, being in the hospital alone made him realize that he's been trying to prove his worth to a father who's never been there for him. "I hoped that if I made enough money that eventually he would take notice," Glenn tells Maggie. "But he didn't even bother to return the hospital's calls." At Maggie's request, Sully goes to the hospital to see Glenn and there's a truce. Glenn apologizes to Sully and says he wants to make things right. Glenn has stopped construction on his new development, wanting to make it a conservation area. But there's one catch, Glenn wants Sully to be the one who looks after it for him. Helen eventually picks up the phone when Sully calls and she tells him that she's been in back-to-back meetings because there's a producer in Ireland who wants to turn her novels into a TV series. And she'll be needed in Dublin for a while. Cal goes to check on Sully, who suggests that Sully go to see Helen in Ireland, but Sully doesn't want to "get in the way of her career." Fans of Sully and Helen will be glad to know that Helen calls Sully back with a big proposal, she asks him to come with her to Ireland. "Maybe it's time for you to let go and start focusing on your future," Helen says, with Sully agreeing to join her. In other relationship updates, some couples are stronger than others. Lola (Amalia Williamson) talks to Sydney (Lindura) about her first time having sex, and with Jacob specifically. They talk about the "liberating" but "vulnerable" feeling of opening up to someone so intimately. Despite her feelings for him, Lola is being realistic about the fact that Jacob has to go back to Alberta to finish his degree. But Jacob decides that he's going to call his advisor to see if he can finish up his research from Nova Scotia, meaning the couple could be together for much longer. Meanwhile, Sydney and Rafe (Dakota Taylor) talk about the future of their relationship, with Sydney saying she's not interested in getting married. It's very different for Rafe, who believes a marriage license is important, leaving a big question mark about how long this relationship will last. The episode ends with a big dinner, prepared by Edna, with Frank (Tom Jackson), Cal, Maggie, Sully, Lola and Jacob. But suddenly Edna drops a salad bowl and says she can't see. Another Sullivan's Crossing episode that ends with a cliffhanger.
