The specific scene was one in which she and her BFF (an underprivileged, black, ex-football player - no stereotypes here) find themselves scamming in the ER. They are assigned a motor vehicle accident victim with blunt trauma to the chest and difficulty breathing. The guy nearly dies before they figure out it’s a collapsed lung.
