Ep 2. Til Death

In the second episode of the science-fiction supernatural series Proof, titled "Til Death", the story of Dr. Carolyn Tyler continues - a skeptic and very successful cardiothoracic surgeon, who gets caught up in a number of mysterious and inexplicable events after the tragic death of her teenage son.

Dr. Tyler is approached by her mentor Dr. Ivan Turing, who wants her to evaluate a new heart protocol that could revolutionize the way heart surgeries are done. The protocol involves keeping the heart of a patient beating after death, allowing doctors more time to perform a transplant.

Tyler has her reservations about the protocol, and her skepticism is further fuelled when a series of strange occurrences take place during the heart transplantation process. A series of unexplainable coincidences make Tyler wonder if there is more at play than just science.

Meanwhile, Tyler's family life is also complicated. Her ex-husband is pushing for more custody of their daughter, and Tyler's mother is suffering from dementia and seems to be hallucinating. Tyler is juggling her family issues, her work, and trying to understand what is happening around her, and where her son fits into it all.

As the episode progresses, we see Dr. Tyler struggling with her own beliefs, while trying to come to terms with the fact that there may be more to life and death than what we can see and measure. Her own journey of grief is mirrored in the experiences of those around her, and as she tries to solve the mystery of the heart protocol, she is forced to confront her own fears and doubts.

Proof is an intriguing series that explores the boundaries of science, faith, and the supernatural. The show's format is unique, with each episode focusing on a new case, but with an overarching arc that follows the central character's personal journey. Proof is cleverly written and beautifully acted, and the second episode is no exception. "Til Death" is a compelling and thought-provoking story that will leave viewers questioning the nature of life and death.
