Doctor Odyssey Season 1 Episode 2 "Singles Week" Review



Episode 2 of ABC’s hot new drama Doctor Odyssey was filled with ocean-front turmoil, truces, and happy endings. 


Shania Twain climbed aboard for the cruise’s infamous event, Singles Week, playing a widow who puts a smile back on Captain Massey’s face and a light back in his heart.


Chord Overstreet also made a guest appearance as a hot cruiser who likes to get around, which he experiences the medical repercussions for later. 


The episode opens with Max and Tristan in the gym, addressing their situationship with Avery. Tristan makes Max aware that he violated “Page 83 Section A” of the ship’s code of conduct by kissing a subordinate and teasingly contemplates turning the new doctor in. 


Max declares it won’t happen again before Tristan tells him he plans to “get under someone to get over someone” during Singles Week.


The two medical heroes call a truce, but unfortunately, it wouldn’t last because in front of the bright stars, Tristan and Avery kiss after she gets emotional from taking care of a dehydrated patient rescued off a life raft. What’s even worse is Max saw the whole thing.


The patient lost at sea is one of the many medical emergencies the big three had to tend to during Singles Week. A passenger named Kelly passes out after a night of passion with Tristan. Her condition was so bad that the team initially suspected there might be a hole in her heart, but it turns out she was consuming a diuretic so she could get her dream summer body. You could sense the jealousy from Avery as Tristan took care of Kelly.


Captain Massey experienced his own medical problem while on a date with Twain’s character. He was diagnosed with “broken heart syndrome” due to the pain he’s had since losing his beloved wife to cancer. It was a very emotional moment that could make the audience connect with him.


An epic reunion happened towards the end of this action-packed episode. The castaway mentioned earlier ran into her fiancé Manuel’s arms, who also was thought to be lost at sea during their passage. 


Captain Massey shared a healing hug with his date, and Tristan shared a warm goodbye kiss with Kelly as they put Singles Week behind them.


Max, Tristan, and Avery will continue to navigate challenging waters literally and figuratively as the season progresses. Episode 3 will air on ABC on Thursday, October 10 at 9 PM ET and will stream on Hulu the day after.
