Relevant to Pizzagate because it's showing the normalization of pedophilia by the media:
Episode description: Dr. Neil Melendez, Dr. Morgan Reznick, and Dr. Claire Brown grapple with a patient’s wish to perform an operation that would keep him from acting on his pedophilic urges; and Dr. Shaun Murphy learns a lesson in empathy.
