It makes sense in context...
The first A Day in the Limelight episode of the series.
Claire faces complications at home and work as she prepares to lead her first surgery. Meanwhile, a sports fishing accident challenges the rest of the staff as they look to treat the fisherman’s injuries without damaging his prize catch.
- A Day in the Limelight: This is the first episode in the series that focuses on another character besides Shaun from start to finish. In addition, Claire appears in all scenes of the episode, which is narrated from her point of view, and the protagonist Shaun is clearly secondary in the plot.
- No Good Deed Goes Unpunished: Claire points out to Shaun that he asked many invasive questions for a new relationship. It turns out that Carly didn't mind Shaun's questions and orders Claire to butt out of their relationship.
- Out of Focus: Shaun, the protagonist of the series, appears in a few scenes in the episode, which is focused on Claire.
- Sudden Downer Ending: Claire's surgery was a success... and then she finds out that her mother is dead.
