Curtis Demands Ryan Donate His Kidney to Jordan

Lulu finds Franco and Elizabeth outside Jordan’s hospital room. They watch through the glass as Jordan struggles with Curtis by her side. Curtis thinks they should postpone her meeting with Franco, but she declares she’s still the commissioner and she can do this as long as he has her back. He assures her he does and vows to get her that kidney. Franco and Liz enter Jordan’s room, as Lulu stands outside writing her story about Ryan. Jordan presents Franco with an award for his role in catching Ryan. Once that’s done, Curtis helps Jordan back into bed, urging her to take it easy. She agrees but wants her phone to call the station. Out in the hallway, Lulu tells Franco she and Laura are very grateful for what he did. Liz and Lulu head out but Franco splits off to pay Ryan a visit. In Ryan’s room, Franco says today would have been Kiki’s birthday. Ryan calls her insipid and dull. Franco, in turn, taunts him about being so predictable that he walked into Ava’s trap. Now he’s left with nothing but his sad pathetic self. Franco tells him to enjoy prison – it couldn’t happen to a nicer guy. Back in Jordan’s room, Finn shows up and says Ryan is healthy enough to donate his kidney, but they can’t do anything without his consent. Curtis and Finn go out to the hallway and Curtis takes off to make sure Ryan’s donation will be a slam dunk.  Curtis visits Ryan and says he saved his life, now it’s his turn to save Jordan. Ryan says it’s a big operation so he’ll have to think about it. Curtis spits, “The answer is yes!”
