Shortly after Hobie leaves, Dr. Mary Morstan (Rochelle Aytes) comes to meet with Watson about Taryn.

Perhaps shes still reeling fromlast weeks episode, where he relented to an uncontested divorce.

Derian reveals that she has been recommending patients for the study, but her recommendations keep getting ignored.

This becomes a conversation for them throughout the episode.

The Crofts (Peter Mark Kendall) remain difficult characters to really understand.
