Question: Who saw last nights episode of "Stand Off"? What happened, I missed it, and my DVR didn't record. Someone fill me in, cause the previews looked good!

Answer: A 17-year old boy holds a hospital hostage because he wants them to save his sister who is dying from lung cancer. He only wants a certain doctor, who is not there, and they can't find. Matt talks with the boy on the phone as Emily goes on a mission to find the missing doctor who appears to have dropped over the face of planet. They show flashbacks of Matt when he was a little boy, running through a hospital. It turns out when he was younger, his mother, who was a cop, was shot and later died in the hospital. Matt tells MJ (the boy) that he hates hospitals and he knows what he's going through. Emily finally tracks down the doctor who tells her he doesn't work for terrorists and won't come with her. She later convinces him to come and they arrive just in time before the SWAT team attempts to take MJ out. After MJ gives himself up and the doctor takes a look at his sister, he tells MJ there is no chance she'll survive, only lasting maybe 1 or 2 months. They cuff MJ and go to take him away but Matt uncuffs him and tells him to spend his last moments with his sister before she dies. \n\nIt was a pretty good episode in my opinion. I loved how Matt related with MJ. Matt was getting emotional when talking to him (not crying or anything, just angry) and he could really relate to MJ.
