Spoilers ahead for the fall finale of the good doctor Season 6, titled “Broken or Not”.
the good doctor has officially come to an end for 2022, and “Broken or Not” left fans with a lot to think about before season 6 returned to the 2023 TV premiere schedule. Some endings were better than others, with lime receive a proposal from Clay before surgery as a sign of support where you are all in, Grass find out you are pregnant after recently learning about the dangers to your health, e Jordan showing up for her first real date with perez… only to find him unconscious (at best) with a needle on the floor beside him. Perez’s fate is uncertain and he certainly wasn’t moving when Jordan found him, so should fans be concerned about the terrifying cliffhanger?
The course of true love has never been smooth. the good doctorand that goes for first dates too, as Jordan showed up happy with ice cream for their dinner together, only to look out the window, see Perez on the floor, walk through the door, and call 911 because’ he didn’t answer the phone next to a needle. The scene ended with Jordan calling for help and trying to find his wrist without revealing whether or not he was alive, then 2022 officially ends without revealing whether he lives, dies or takes permanent damage from its fallout.
While Perez’s overdose was apparently a nasty surprise (to say the least) for Jordan, it wasn’t entirely unexpected. Clean when he arrived in St. Bonaventure, he had a history of battling opioid addiction. Sparks flew between him and Jordan, and he looked fine in the hospital, but now worried fans can hope and wish for the best.
The good news is, those fans may not have to worry too much about whether or not Perez is going to die! Terme reported in November that actor Brandon Larracuente had been promoted to series regular after only being announced as a recurring part of season six. the good doctor would promote the actor playing one of the new Doctors to kill off the character less than two months later. I’m pretty comfortable saying Perez will survive his overdose.
the good doctor It’s not the only medical drama with a story about a drug-addicted surgeon, and Perez is in a more difficult situation than Ian. the resident Up until now, the one that sounded more like it emergencies nothing else. Perez may need more than one off-screen stint in rehab before he can return to work, depending on the extent of the damage done before Jordan arrives and bursts in to try and save his life.
If Brandon Larracuente was just recurring, I fear this story is being used to kill Perez or write his way out. As things stand, I’m more curious as to how the relapse will develop and whether the overdose will jeopardize his standing at St. Bonaventure. Unfortunately, the promotion doesn’t help with your destination. It focuses more on Shaun and Lea with Lea undergoing emergency surgery and Jordan shows up but Perez is nowhere to be found. To take a look at:
All in all, it seems like ABC wants to keep fans guessing as much as possible without giving any clues about Perez’s whereabouts, but I feel comfortable predicting that no matter what, he won’t die. The show is still going strong at this point in Season 6, shortly after the milestone 100th episode and its big reveal about Morgan.
