Let’s cut the “Quackers Week” schtick, shall we? ABC’s Doctor Odyssey is back with it’s fall finale, and while the rubber ducky theme might suggest smooth sailing, the synopsis hints at choppy waters ahead for the cruise ship’s medical team. The episode, titled “Quackers,” finds our protagonists facing a fresh batch of medical mysteries while navigating the, shall we say, unique challenges of a ship-wide rubber ducky obsession. Check out the promo clip below.
Amid the feathered plastic pandemonium, Avery (Phillipa Soo) receives some unexpected news. Will it be a diagnosis, a message from home, or perhaps an encounter with a particularly aggressive inflatable waterfowl? The preview keeps things vague.
The episode will blend the show’s trademark lightheartedness with some potentially dramatic developments, a balance Doctor Odyssey has generally handled well so far this season. Whether the ducky theme enhances or detracts from the core medical drama is a question viewers can ponder while their bathtubs overflow with promotional tie-in merchandise.
Doctor Odyssey airs Thursdays at 9:00 PM on ABC.
