In The Good Doctor episode “Empathy,” while autistic Dr. Shaun Murphy (Freddie Highmore) struggles to show empathy toward a patient who is relentlessly teased for his disfigurement, Dr. Neil Melendez (Nicholas Gonzalez), Dr. Morgan Reznick (Fiona Gubelmann) and Dr. Claire Brown (Antonia Thomas) grapple with a patient’s wish to perform an operation that would keep him from acting on his pedophilic urges. The patient, George Reynolds, tells them, “I’m afraid of what I could do.”
Pedophilic patient George Reynolds is portrayed by Tyler Ritter. The son of the late actor John Ritter and younger brother of fellow actor Jason Ritter [Kevin (Probably) Saves the World], Tyler Ritter is known for his roles on Chicago P.D. (Rex Goldwin), Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. (Thomas Ward), Arrow (Detective Billy Malone), The McCarthys (Ronny McCarthy), Grey’s Anatomy (Paul Zarr), and Modern Family (Randall), among others. The Good Doctor airs Mondays at 10 pm on ABC, right after The Great Christmas Light Fight.
