Is Mina leaving The Resident? It sure sounds like it. In our EXCLUSIVE preview of the Feb. 9 episode of The Resident, Mina reveals to AJ that she got a new residency at Mass General in Boston. “That’s fantastic,” AJ says to Mina. After a moment, the reality of the situation begins to settle in.
“What does that do to us? The band’s breaking up already?” AJ asks. Mina replies, “You could be there, too.” He says that he’s already gotten accepted to Atlanta General. “Plus, I have family here,” he notes.
This new residency could have a long-term impact on Mina’s career. “A prestigious hospital like this could get me my O-1 visa. It would solve all my problems,” she admits. She adds, “But you haven’t committed yet. Boston is a fantastic medical town.”
Mina begins to put the pressure on AJ about moving to Boston with her. She knows they could have a wonderful life together in Boston. “Come with me,” she tells him. “I can see us in a little house on the Back Bay, snow falling down, a fireplace,” she says. AJ adds, “Sounds like heaven.” He tells her that he’ll check his contacts in Boston to see what he can work out. Nevertheless, he’s incredibly proud of Mina. He gives her a sweet kiss after their conversation.
