‘Doc’ Star Molly Parker on That Satisfying Finale Twist, the Show’s Love Triangle and Looking Forward to Season 2


'Doc' star Molly Parker breaks down the Season 1 finale — that twist, the love triangle and what she's looking forward to in Season 2.

Over the course of the show’s 10-episode first season, as she works to get recertified in the same hospital where she was once the chief of internal medicine, Amy must come to terms with the tragic loss of her son, Danny, which not only turned her into a hardened shell of herself but also led to the dissolution of her marriage to Dr. Michael Hamda (Omar Metwally) and an estranged relationship with their daughter Katie (Charlotte Fountain-Jardim). While she had decided privately years before that she never wanted to play the mother of a dead child again, since she had done in other past roles, Parker felt “Doc” was going to offer a “delicate and complicated look at grief” — a universal phenomenon that did not necessarily change this seemingly ordinary woman for the better. In Tuesday’s season finale, while the doctors rush to treat victims of a train derailment caused by a suicidal driver who parked his car on the tracks, Amy decides that she needs to apologize to the affable widow of Bill Dixon — the man her colleague, Chief Dr. Richard Miller (Scott Wolf), said she had killed on the job before her accident.
