SPOILER ALERT: The following contains spoilers for Chicago Med Season 11, Episode 1.

The Chicago Med Season 11 premiere isn’t too far off from the Chicago Med Season 10 premiere. Both feature the hospital dealing with a major disaster—this time it’s a building collapse—while the staff have various personal revelations. Audiences sort of know what to expect from this story. Thus, while there’s a lot going on in “We All Fall Down,” some parts are more impactful than others.

Of course, the primary plotline concerns Dr. Hannah Asher’s unexpected pregnancy. The premiere follows her as she tells Dr. Dean Archer that he’s the father of the baby, then has her ex-boyfriend Dr. Mitch Ripley find out in the most TV way possible—through one of the nurses assuming that it’s Ripley’s child. Despite that literally cringe-worthy moment, the scenes between Jessy Schram, Luke Mitchell and Steven Weber are well-done all around. There’s a genuine feeling to every exchange; nothing feels amped up for the sake of drama.
