There’s hope at the end of the absolutely fantastic Season 2 finale of The Pitt. Robby (Noah Wyle) has a heart-to-heart then opens up to a somewhat surprising person, he and Langdon (Patrick Ball) do finally talk, and Al-Hashimi (Sepideh Moafi) faces the truth about her future with her seizure disorder. TV Insider spoke with executive producer R. Scott Gemmill for a look ahead at Season 3. Warning: Spoilers for The Pitt Season 2 finale below!

Abbot’s (Shawn Hatosy) once again the one to talk to Robby, just like in the first season finale; their conversation takes place in a trauma room, not the roof this time. He doesn’t sugarcoat it either. “You want to know why I never killed myself?” Abbot asks. Despite what he’d seen and experienced, “yes, life can suck, it can be unbearable and brutal and ugly and heartbreaking, but it’s also beautiful,” he says. But Robby’s struggling, “feeling like I’m drowning every day,” he admits. Abbot tells him to get help and find a way to “dance through the darkness.” It seems like Robby takes his words to heart as he ends the season with baby Jane Doe, assuring her she’s safe and not alone, pretty much saying what he needs to hear. He talks about getting abandoned at the age of 8, but assured her she’ll get through it like he did.
