Dr. Shaun Murphy and his team return with a new episode named "45-Degree Angle," which revolves around the case of a man who dies mysteriously seconds after a good health diagnosis. The episode begins with Dr. Lim and Dr. Andrews giving Shaun a new task. He is to oversee a routine surgical assessment on a patient, which Shaun wants to perform to the best of his ability.

The team then looks back into the patient's medical history to figure out if there was any indication of health issues that went unnoticed. However, the dissection shows no apparent cause of death. Initial screening for blocked arteries was likewise negative. Nevertheless, the procedure did show blood clots, but not enough to be the reason why the patient passed away.

Later on, the team notices a 45-degree angle wound on the man's heel while they were discussing the case. They decide to investigate the situation further, and Shaun and Dr. Morgan Reznick work to discover the true cause of his death. As they begin to check for possibilities, the team uncovers a shocking discovery that reveals the cause of his sudden death and sets them on a mission to find out if anyone else is in danger of this mysterious fate.

Meanwhile, Claire frets over her new roommate’s loud music while Park’s unusual pet causes issues with one of the nurses. Also, Shaun worries about Lea’s lack of commitment towards their relationship.
