Doc Season 2 Premiere: Hostage Shooting, Child Dies

Fox’s Doc returns for a full 22-episode Season 2 with Emmy‑nominated Molly Parker back as Dr. Amy Larsen; the series is adapted from an Italian drama based on a true story. The premiere, available to stream on Hulu, detonates a tense hostage situation at Westside Hospital that leaves TJ shot and a child awaiting a heart transplant dead, which temporarily sidelines personal drama while raising the stakes for the doctors. The Michael/Amy/Jake love triangle is put on shaky ground—Amy and Michael close the door on a romance for now and Jake is disheartened—while Amy’s relationship choices remain uncertain. Memory recovery becomes a central, season‑long plot driver as Amy begins regaining key memories “in drips and drabs,” a gradual process that will shape her decisions. Season 2 introduces new faces and deeper character arcs, including guest turns such as Felicity Huffman and more of Jake’s family, as Amy juggles life‑and‑death cases, intensive treatments, and investigating her lost eight years.
