Meredith gets corrected on a call and immediately starts floating away. She knows she gave the right answer, but the correction causes her to dissociate and question herself. Later, after checking the information, she discovers she was right all along. The experience sparks a conversation about dissociation, self-doubt, and what happens when our minds try to protect us from stress, embarrassment, or conflict in the workplace.

Cassandra gives her the best advice and we also talk about sunburns.
