After a long winter's break, 'B Positive' is back to ring in the New Year with new episodes, and things are just as off the rails as ever. Gina (Annaleigh Ashford) will be facing a hard challenge, considering her atypical mindset towards life — passing a psych evaluation. What inspires the need for this evaluation is unclear though. As if things weren't bad enough for Gina, her peace of mind is going to be shattered when she finds out that one of her exes is getting married.

Before the show's winter break, things were going relatively well for Gina. In fact, her life had more stability than ever before. Thanks to Drew's (Thomas Middleditch) generosity, Gina had a roof above her head when moving in with him, and safety from the debt collectors who were chasing her down. Drew's ex-wife, Julia (Sarah Rue), also had a hand in grounding Gina by literally talking her down from a parachute plane jump after Drew grew paranoid over Gina's risk-taking activities before his much-needed surgery.

Now, Gina needs a psych evaluation, probably as a requirement for the old age home she works at. And with the worst timing in the world, news comes to her that one of her exes is getting married, while Gina is single and generally directionless in life. She immediately starts to spiral, putting her psych evaluation at risk. 

Can she hold things together long enough to be able to pass it or will she break down at the worst possible moment? Now would be a time for Drew to step up and give her the kind of support Gina's been able to give him when he was feeling down and paranoid about his life.

The official synopsis for the episode reads "Gina needs to keep herself together to pass a psych evaluation while dealing with the news of an ex's engagement." This episode of 'B Positive', titled 'Open Heart Surgery', airs on January 21 at 8:30 PM ET, on CBS.
