Black Cloud is the twentieth episode of The Resident Season 2. And since this is the fourth to the last episode of the season, the series is expected to drop a few negative storylines. In fact, the title of the upcoming episode is already a tell that something unpleasant is about to happen.

These unpleasantries seemed to have started in the previous episode, Snowed In, where everyone one in the Chastain Park Memorial Hospital encountered a snowstorm. This natural phenomenon has become a great hurdle to everyone that added to the overall challenge inside the hospital.

Meanwhile, it is also revealed that Conrad will face his own struggles when he is about to break the news to Nic that Jessie is not getting well at all.

From these things alone, the upcoming episode of The Resident seemingly appears to be a very struggle-filled installment to the season. Nevertheless, Cartermatt believes that this is just the last storm before everything calms down. Hence, the title, Black Cloud.

According to the outlet, these storylines are just suitable for the near end of the season.
