Gaffney Chicago Medical Center will cater to a Saudi prince in the upcoming episode of the NBC series "Chicago Med."

In "Reunion," Spoilers Guide reports that His Royal Highness, Prince Faisal (guest star Lymen Chehade) will fly in to Chicago for a scheduled surgery, but his arrival will rub Dr. Connor Rhodes (Colin Donnell) the wrong way. This is because the prince does not want anyone else to operate on him but hotshot surgeon, Dr. David Downey (guest star Gregg Henry). Downey, however, will take an immediate liking to Rhodes' operations.

Meanwhile, Dr. Natalie Manning's (Torrey DeVitto) maternity leave is up. Her return to the hospital will be greeted by a sensitive case involving a youngster who has "a long history of medical issues." Now that she is mother herself, helping the teenager who clearly needs medical help and guidance will take on a more personal approach. Will she be able to get through the walls the patient has erected around himself?

Elsewhere, an ex-Navy man is in need of immediate treatment. Dr. Ethan Choi (Brian Tee) thinks he is suffering from a life-threatening disease. To make sure that the shipmate will get the help that he needs, Choi will reportedly "go above and beyond the scope of his duties." This is going to be one of the episodes wherein viewers will see the dedication that Gaffney doctors have to their profession.

While most of their colleagues are busy with different cases, a love triangle is forming among Dr. Sarah Reese (Rachel DiPillo), Joey Thomas (guest star Peter Mark Kendall), and April Sexton (Yaya DaCosta). Reese and the lab tech appear to be drawn to each other, but the nurse is playing the jealous third party. Who will the guy choose between the two gorgeous women?

"Chicago Med" airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. EST on NBC.
