Is this the moment we've all been waiting for? Yes. Did they finally end up kissing? No, unfortunately. Dr Helen Sharpe and Dr Max Goodwin got very close to passionately locking lips and giving into their pretty obvious feelings and fans just cannot keep calm. 

"The way Max looked like he just wanted to GRAB HER AND KISS HER," said a fan. "#NewAmsterdam she has always been waiting for him to kiss her," another one said.

A viewer quipped, "The episode starts off with what Max thinks he wants and it ends with what he needs #Sharpwin #NewAmsterdam" pointing out that while the episode began with Max's relationship with Alice, it ended with his immense friendship and deep affection for Helen — something fans have been wanting more for throughout the season. 

After Castro hands in her resignation, Max demands to know what actually happened with Helen and her. We know they came to an agreement after Helen found out Castro was fixing her drug trial. Helen confesses to Max that she was more or less the same she had always been and that she would always let her ambition ger in the way of her talent. Then Max asks Helen why she had given her half her department. 

Helen doesn’t answer at first, walking away. "It was for you. Everything I have done, I have done for you," she tells Max when he presses on. Max walks towards Helen and stares into her eyes and just for a moment, they look like they may just jump each other's bones. The tension could be cut with a knife and it almost felt like they were both going to be engulfed in some type of flames any moment — you get the gist.

Unfortunately, the moment passes and she walks out the door with a dejected smile. "Everything that I have done.. I have done for you. IM CRYINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG #newamsterdam," tweeted a very excited fan. Another said, "Max didn’t know whether he should’ve taken off his ring with Alice but he was .2 seconds away from taking it off during his conversation with helen! he knows if he’s gonna take it off, it should be for helen. that’s endgame luv! #newamsterdam." 

As much as we love these two, the back and forth is killing us. Give the Dam Fam a Sharpwin, we say. What do you think of these two? Let us know in the comments below.
