The Good Doctor finale jumped ahead a decade to Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore) giving a TED Talk about the Neurodiversity in Medicine foundation he created to honour his now-deceased father figure Dr. Aaron Glassman (Richard Schiff) — who gave Shaun the chance to become a surgeon.
I wanted to help people, and save lives, and I wanted to make a lot of money so I could buy a television, But because of Dr. Glassman, I have much more than that: I have many friends, I have a family… and I have two televisions. — the TED Talk.
In the audience to support the now Chief of Surgery at San Jose St. Bonaventure Hospital are Shaun’s family and colleagues:: wife Lea (Paige Spara) and children Steve and Maddie, the now-married Dr. Claire Browne (Antonia Thomas) and Dr. Jared Kalu (Chuku Modu) with their daughter; now-with-Surgeons-for-a-Better-World Dr. Audrey Lim (Christina Chang); now-married Dr. Alex Park (Will Yun Lee) and Dr. Morgan Reznick (Fiona Gubelmann) with their daughter Eden; now-married Dr. Jordan Allen (Bria Samone Henderson) and Dr. Danny Perez (Brandon Larracuente) and season 7 additions Dr. Charlie Lukatis (Kayla Cromer) and Dr. Dom Hubank (Wavyy Jonez).
