‘The Resident’: Is Everyone Already Beginning to Grieve for Nic? (PHOTOS)
The staff at Chastain will be more than just doctors in the October 5 episode of The Resident. They’ll also be loved ones facing saying goodbye to someone they know very well.
As we learned at the end of “No Good Deed,” Nic Nevin (Emily VanCamp) was in some sort of accident on her way home to Conrad (Matt Czuchry) and their daughter Gigi. Then, the promo for “The Long and Winding Road” hinted at a heartbreaking end to the couple’s story. Now, the photos appear to show the staff, Nic’s father Kyle (Corbin Bernsen) — who’s already lost one daughter — and Conrad’s dad Marshall (Glenn Morshower) gathered to possibly say goodbye to the nurse practitioner-turned-patient. Is there any way this doesn’t end tragically considering how sad everyone looks?
“When an accident brings a familiar patient into the Chastain ER, the doctors must face the reality of figuring out how to proceed with the best care, which leads the whole staff questioning every decision,” Fox teases of the episode. Plus, AJ (Malcolm-Jamal Warner) and Leela (Anuja Joshi) will treat a patient returning with the long-term effects of COVID.
Scroll down for a peek at what’s coming up in “The Long and Winding Road.”

I think they should have got someone else to play the part just because the person leaves doesn’t mean the part should go with them

It will be heartbreaking to watch I think Nic will die and Matt Czuchry will give the performance of his life in this episode

Just re cast her after she has facial reconstruction surgery

I think we won't know the answer until further in the season. But why does everything have to happen to Nic???

emily ( nic ) wants to be a mother in real life and raise her baby.which I don't blame her one bit.she has worked really hard in every thing she has acted in.i really like Emily vancamp and hate to see her go but let her be with her husband and baby.

Don't want to watch way too depressing. I like the idea of recasting

This is just awful. I already stopped watching 4 other shows, because the story line got twisted and/or main characters left the show. I may have to add "The Resident" to my list. I was happy to see Morris Chestnut leave. I couldn't stand his arrogance. So now after Dr. Okafor there is Nic. Why? I'm not happy. They should have given the part to some other actor.
Oh and to the viewer who said Conrad will give the performance of his life...I agree but also think he does that each and every week.
Sorry to see Emily leave, but I wish her all the best of everything.

I agree with you. I wish they have given the parts of Mina and Nic to other actors.

Recast the role. Good idea about plastic surgery. Got to the point I was counting the times Emily sighed each episode (she did that in another role too)

I think it is folly to go down the road of killing off Nic. My most favourite people apart from the Raptor & his girl who they sent back to Africa all the nice love music gone. Nic & Conrad has such a special relationship. They almost already killed her on the show in a few episodes ago when she was stabbed by the lunatic. Only to want to kill her off now a few episodes later leaving Conrad and his busy schedule to take care if this young child. Can't the writers think of something else? Get some new ones. Must there b so much doom & gloom in these shows? I am so tired will just soon stop watching.

They could do something like they did in Grey’s with Alex. Then people would still be unhappy. No easy way to make the masses happy when they have a moving plot and a character IRL leaves. Such is real life.

Don't want Conrad to lose his Nic, even if her character has to be recast.

I thought I read somewhere Emily Van Camp is going to be in a Revenge 2. That would b awesome if true. I loved her in that show..would make leaving the Resident worth while
-
B
I think it is dumb..why kill her off? I understand she just had a baby and wants to spend time with her new family. She has had enough storyline and stuff done to her..the show really centered around her and Conrad..it has been great and then this?
Not interested in watching anymore ..

I read she’s leaving the show so I guess she doesn’t make it. Unless they put her in a long term rehab and possibly bring her back some other time
-
G
I'm sad about Nic and her loss, but did we really need another story line about an overworked doctor raising an infant in his own?
-
P
They should find someone who looks similar to carry on the character

I'm already balling at previews got BOXES of kleenex ready

Heartbreaking for all the staff. Nic is the reason I started watching The Resident. I can’t stop the tears.

R
also copying St. Elsewhere. Recast the role. She always looked pissed off.

P
I'm sad to see Nic leave. This is the first time I followed a TV drama series wherein I love all the characters, the stories, everything about the show. First, Mina left, now Nic. But I will keep watching as I love the way the writers tell the other side of Healthcare. Kudos to all of you.

G
You had better not kill her. There is enough sadness in the real world so don’t mess up our alter reality
-
G
Sorry to. Be the bearer of Sad news
Emily decided to go to Marville.>I am saddened by this
I believe they should recast the role

Looks like a copy cat to New Amsterdam. Disappointing that baby girls both lose their birth mothers.

Who cares. The actress wanted out.
