samira mohan whose father died when she was young due to racial inequality and medication mismanagement. who dedicates her life to trying to be a good, compassionate, kind doctor in a specialty where it is hard to form connections with your patients. samira mohan who was belittled by both her peers who called her slow-mo, who thought that just because the reason they picked emergency medicine is because they can't sit still and need the stimulation, that her reasoning wasn't as valid.
samira mohan who was bullied and torn down by her attending at every possible moment purely because he saw himself in her. samira mohan who never had a father figure and never got to see her mother in love who now has to watch her mom jet off with some guy she's never met and sell the only place samira has left of her dad. samira who watches every single one of her coworkers soul bond with another but none of them even know that about her, to the point where they don't even ask her medical history when she thinks she's developing the same thing that killed her father.
samira never wanted to do literally anything other than emergency medicine and anyone pretending like she did because she was floating the idea around out of insecurity did not watch the show properly. she wanted everyone she pitched the idea to leave to tell her no, this is where you belong. you are an emergency medicine doctor. don't move to psychiatry, you want to be here.
samira mohan who genuinely looks up to robby despite all his misgivings, who wants him to tutor her, to teach her, to guide her. only for all of his efforts to be focused on his white male suboordinates, and (one of) their mismanagement of medication.
