You Fired A Genius Surgeon USA #ReelShort
Transcript
00:00:00The patient's crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:02The patient won't survive.
00:00:04Watch.
00:00:05Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level of trauma like this?
00:00:09This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:00:11What you just did will go down in the history box.
00:00:14Who is this guy?
00:00:15He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:00:17New management, new standards.
00:00:19Sleeping after a shift?
00:00:20You are fired.
00:00:21I just worked all night.
00:00:23Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:00:25He's the one.
00:00:26Didn't I fire you too already?
00:00:28Get your hand off my gun arm.
00:00:31We're done, Adrian.
00:00:32I need someone with a future.
00:00:34Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:00:39This isn't about money.
00:00:40Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?
00:00:45These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:00:47With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:00:50Why is that?
00:00:51Oh.
00:00:52Why are you just standing there?
00:00:53Do something!
00:00:54If you need help, just ask.
00:00:55All you have to do is know what you did.
00:00:58A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured
00:01:07patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:01:11The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their
00:01:16last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:01:20Facials crashing!
00:01:21We need an attending surgeon now!
00:01:23All the hours are full.
00:01:24We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:01:26Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:01:29I can't leave this one.
00:01:30Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:01:31We need another attending surgeon.
00:01:32Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:01:34Need a hand?
00:01:35A new hire.
00:01:36You just started this month.
00:01:41Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this!
00:01:47The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:48Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
00:01:49The patient's yours.
00:01:50Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:01:51Whipple?
00:01:52For trauma?
00:01:53That's insane.
00:01:54Trust me.
00:01:55Medicine bomb scissors.
00:01:56Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency
00:01:58isn't ready for a level one trauma like this.
00:02:00The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:02:02Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
00:02:04Patient's yours.
00:02:10Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:02:14Whipple? For trauma?
00:02:16That's insane.
00:02:18Trust me.
00:02:19Metzenbaum scissors.
00:02:22Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:02:26That procedure will take hours.
00:02:28The patient won't survive.
00:02:30Robicottery?
00:02:33Watch.
00:02:40He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:02:42The bleeding? It's under control.
00:02:45But how did he...?
00:02:48Silk suture.
00:02:50Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:03:02I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:04Almost done.
00:03:06This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:16Jesus, Adrian. What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:03:28I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:03:31That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:03:34Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:03:36What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:39Wait.
00:03:40I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:03:43who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:47Is that you?
00:03:54Final suture.
00:03:56Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:04:00Doctor.
00:04:03The nurses.
00:04:06They said you did it.
00:04:09And you...
00:04:10You actually did.
00:04:15Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:17Every surgeon on the west coast said it was inoperable,
00:04:20that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:04:22You...
00:04:24You saved my Catherine.
00:04:26She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:04:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:30We need you at Vail.
00:04:31My hospital.
00:04:35Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:36Right now we have three critical patients
00:04:38that need specialized procedures.
00:04:40It's gonna take hours.
00:04:42Y'all should go home.
00:04:43Get some rest.
00:04:45I'll take over from here.
00:04:47Okay.
00:04:49Good work, everyone.
00:04:58You're all stable.
00:04:59Every single one of them.
00:05:12Stabilized.
00:05:13Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:05:14You must have operated all night.
00:05:15You're a machine.
00:05:16Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:17All right.
00:05:18It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:19It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:20Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:05:21You must have operated all night.
00:05:22You're a machine.
00:05:23Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:25All right.
00:05:26It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:28Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:05:31You must have operated all night.
00:05:34You're a machine.
00:05:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:37All right.
00:05:38It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:58Hey, you.
00:06:02Hey, yourself.
00:06:04I've been operating all night.
00:06:07I see every single patient in that pileup.
00:06:10What I did was extraordinary.
00:06:13How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:06:17Because I know you.
00:06:19Better than anyone.
00:06:25Blueberry, your favorite.
00:06:28You remembered.
00:06:30Appreciate it.
00:06:32You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:06:37I know it's only been a month, but...
00:06:40It just feels different.
00:06:49It's the third time this week.
00:06:51Husband foods better than someone else's.
00:06:55So who's this marksman guy?
00:06:56His surgical skills are unreal.
00:06:58Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.
00:07:01I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:07:04With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:07:07Never mind.
00:07:15What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:07:18Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:07:22Who is this guy?
00:07:24Who is this guy?
00:07:26Preston Bale, President Bale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:07:30He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:07:36I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:07:44Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:07:46Sir, about last-
00:07:47Save it.
00:07:50Parker.
00:07:51You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:07:55You're fired.
00:07:56Clear out your office.
00:07:58New management means new standards.
00:08:01It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:08:03Attention in everybody's attention now.
00:08:09If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:08:15No complications, no deaths.
00:08:18This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:08:22Who does he think he is?
00:08:24Dr. House?
00:08:26What is this?
00:08:28Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:08:30Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:08:35This is a hospital.
00:08:37We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:08:41That was from my residency direction.
00:08:43Oh, cry me a river.
00:08:45Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:08:52You're fired.
00:08:53Excuse me?
00:08:54Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:08:58Yes, sir.
00:09:00Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:09:03That was good.
00:09:05Let's go.
00:09:10Well, well, well.
00:09:12What do we have here?
00:09:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:09:16Rise and shine, superstar.
00:09:18Did I order a wake-up call?
00:09:25No, you didn't.
00:09:27But here's one anyway.
00:09:28You.
00:09:29Are.
00:09:30Fired.
00:09:33Are you serious?
00:09:34You're firing me?
00:09:36Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:09:39Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:09:42Fiona, what's his position here?
00:09:43He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:09:49What's he make?
00:09:51700,000.
00:09:53That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:09:55700?
00:09:57Are you insane?
00:09:58You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:10:02This hospital is being scammed.
00:10:04I just worked all night, okay?
00:10:05I'm just taking a nap.
00:10:06Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:10:09I've seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:10:13What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:10:16Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam.
00:10:21Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:10:26My career comes first.
00:10:28Boy, bye.
00:10:30There must be some clerical error.
00:10:31These credentials, other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:10:37Fiona?
00:10:39Dr. Marksman.
00:10:42You are F-I-R-E-D.
00:10:45Fired.
00:10:47Clear out your office.
00:10:49Clear out your locker.
00:10:51You'll get the hell out of my hospital.
00:10:53This is a mistake, okay?
00:10:54You need to check the surgical lock.
00:10:56Oh, you don't get to wear that.
00:10:57What?
00:11:01I see.
00:11:07Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:11:10You don't understand.
00:11:11He's the one who-
00:11:12Didn't I fire you two already?
00:11:14Beat it.
00:11:15Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:11:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:11:19I understand.
00:11:20Hospital politics.
00:11:21Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:11:34Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:11:36I'll be waiting.
00:11:37You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:41If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:11:42You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:43If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:11:44Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:45Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:46I intend to wield it.
00:11:47If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:11:51If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:12:09Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:12:11I intend to wield it.
00:12:14Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:12:19your little scam artist situationship?
00:12:21No, Preston.
00:12:23He means nothing to me.
00:12:24Really.
00:12:25I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:12:27Let's be clear about your future here.
00:12:30Do you want to be with the nobody
00:12:32collecting unemployment checks
00:12:35or the man who signs everyone's paychecks,
00:12:38including yours?
00:12:41The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:12:45Even the most attractive administrators
00:12:46need to be reminded, lose some charge around here.
00:12:58Hey, Dad, what's wrong?
00:12:59Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:13:01She'll be okay, but I need you
00:13:04to take full control of the hospital.
00:13:06And Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:13:09Of course, what is it?
00:13:11That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman, whatever happens,
00:13:14make sure you take care of him.
00:13:16Dr. Marksman?
00:13:18Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:13:20Get out of my hospital.
00:13:22Christ, the resident I just fired?
00:13:26Preston?
00:13:27Are you there?
00:13:29Check the staff roster.
00:13:31See if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:13:34I had to back up the Brink's truck to get him here.
00:13:39He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life,
00:13:41and he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:13:45The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:13:54Ah, yes, I see now.
00:13:55There's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:13:58Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery,
00:14:02two-time Florence Nightingale,
00:14:04medal recipient for medical excellence,
00:14:06three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:14:09Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:14:10That's our man.
00:14:11There's another surgeon with the same last name
00:14:13who's been a disaster for us.
00:14:15Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:14:17Do me a favor, fire him.
00:14:20Already done, Dad.
00:14:22I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:14:24Thank God.
00:14:25I almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:14:28Good work, son.
00:14:30I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:14:34Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:14:36I got everything else under control.
00:14:44See?
00:14:45Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:14:49Now, about your career trajectory.
00:14:53Mr. Bale, sir.
00:14:54Can't you see I'm busy?
00:14:56Multiple traumas incoming.
00:14:57The six-car pileup.
00:14:58You fired half our surgery team.
00:14:59What's your point?
00:15:00ER is crashing.
00:15:02We've no one left who can handle it.
00:15:10Give me the situation now.
00:15:12Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:15:15Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:15:19We're losing patients.
00:15:20What are our options?
00:15:22There might be one solution.
00:15:23Well, spit it out.
00:15:25Dr. Marksman.
00:15:26He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:15:29If we can get him back here.
00:15:30Marksman.
00:15:31Right.
00:15:32That's the men we need.
00:15:33Fiona, call him.
00:15:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:15:36The genius surgeon.
00:15:37The one I didn't fire.
00:15:38Keep up.
00:15:39What the hell?
00:15:41Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:46Where'd all this stuff go?
00:16:02Idiot left us research notes.
00:16:05Mmm.
00:16:06Modified trauma protocol.
00:16:09Wait.
00:16:11These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:16:13Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:16:21Hello?
00:16:22Dr. Marksman?
00:16:23Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:16:25Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis,
00:16:27there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:16:30I'm on my way.
00:16:34With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:16:37They'll make me department head.
00:16:40And I can finally make seven figures.
00:16:48Well?
00:16:49Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:16:51Thank God.
00:16:52Thank God.
00:17:02Now, about your loyalty.
00:17:06Adrian meant nothing.
00:17:08I was using him to advance my career.
00:17:10You're my future.
00:17:12That's my girl.
00:17:13Beyond a shift in it an hour ago,
00:17:23the boss's son is up to something.
00:17:26To hell with this.
00:17:27I'm going up.
00:17:28I'm going up.
00:17:43Piece of shit!
00:17:48Get your hand on my girl!
00:17:49Oh!
00:17:52Knock it off, Adrian!
00:17:54You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon
00:17:55can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:17:59You mean to tell me that you've been messing around
00:18:00with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:18:03I can choose who I want.
00:18:04And I don't want a disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:18:07You pathetic loser.
00:18:20We're done, Adrian.
00:18:26Ancient history.
00:18:28Are you serious?
00:18:30Just like that.
00:18:32Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:18:37Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:18:39Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:18:41I need someone with a future.
00:18:43Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying!
00:18:49Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:18:52It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:18:57Oh-ho-ho!
00:18:59Look at us, Adrian.
00:19:01I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:19:03And you?
00:19:07You're just a slacker.
00:19:09And scrubs.
00:19:10You're washed up, Marksman.
00:19:12Perhaps try nursing?
00:19:14I hear they're always hiring.
00:19:16Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:19:20I thought we could build a family together.
00:19:23Get over yourself.
00:19:25You think I'm gonna stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:19:29President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:19:35We're done.
00:19:37I'm not done.
00:19:39But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:19:42You can count on that.
00:19:45No, no, no. Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:19:51Your troubles are just getting started.
00:19:53Who authorizes you to be here?
00:19:54Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident.
00:20:06And the situation is completely under control.
00:20:09You're Dr. Marksman.
00:20:11Ah, yes. The very same.
00:20:13My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:20:16Harvard Medical, was it?
00:20:18These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:20:24As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:20:29Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:20:33He was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table.
00:20:38Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:20:48Dr. Hart.
00:20:50Incredible news.
00:20:52Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:20:56he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:21:00When?
00:21:01Professor Vail, he's been killed one hour ago.
00:21:02Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:21:05Oh.
00:21:07Amazing.
00:21:09I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his Price surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:21:16With our respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:21:20Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:21:24We'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:21:25him whatever it takes full department autonomy research funding state-of-the-art facilities
00:21:35and if necessary my personal involvement his techniques could revolutionize surgical care
00:21:43have my car brought round i'm going to vale hospital personally
00:21:47and adrian marksman he's leaving with me
00:21:57alphysus what kind of delusional accusation is that now don't insult our intelligence a patient
00:22:03coded while you were off taking a nap the timing couldn't possibly be coincidental yet you stand
00:22:08there denying it this is crazy you've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon and when a
00:22:14complication occurs which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership
00:22:20you blame me the collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad
00:22:28if you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be you would still have a job
00:22:34i'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of mr vale security please detain him
00:22:44what exactly are you accusing me of either confess to medical malfeasance or
00:22:50they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence adrian i never realized you were
00:22:56capable of endangering patients what other medical atrocities have you committed you better confess
00:23:02now or we'll do everything in your power to make sure you lose your medical license
00:23:05fine go ahead do your worst let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical
00:23:14board you really underestimate my family's influence don't you don't you realize that mr vale here can
00:23:23end your entire career with one phone call sir i strongly recommend that we make an example out of him
00:23:29after all he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes priston you can't let him walk away after
00:23:35this not after what he did to our patients i'm contacting the medical board right now as of this
00:23:42moment dr adrian marksman is blacklisted from vale hospital and every medical institute in the country
00:23:49plans in motion adrian do you know what that means it means that you will never practice medicine in
00:23:55this country again i have one question before i go does your father know you fired me my father's
00:24:05the one who asked me to fire you you dipshit you thought you were some brilliant surgical god didn't
00:24:13you security remove this criminal from hospital property immediately immediately yes doctor right away sir
00:24:20let him go dr marksman is about to accept the position as chief of surgical innovation
00:24:44physician at heart medical center i know you you're vivian heart the surgical upstar from that
00:24:52medical clinic across town that's dr vivian heart to you mr vale vivian i haven't seen you since
00:25:00the john hopkins symposium like four or five years ago what are you doing here well i'm here for the
00:25:05most innovative surgeon in the country of course wait are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor
00:25:13is value he was sleeping during rounds is this how vale hospital discards its exceptional talent
00:25:21your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence not petty politics
00:25:28dr hart with all due respect this is a conversation between medical directors
00:25:34someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence dr hart i must inform you that dr
00:25:40marksman represents a serious liability he compromised the patient's safety and i don't believe i requested
00:25:46your medical opinion dr marksman david marksman i have neither time nor interest in your assessment
00:25:55after he decided to go to sleep we had a critical surgical complication his negligence led to the problem
00:26:03his actions not only endangered patients it compromised my hospital's reputation are you really willing to
00:26:10defend someone who violates the hippocratic oath did you actually consult with your father before dismissing dr
00:26:17marksman of course i consulted my father
00:26:22he's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation dangerous
00:26:28shortcuts is that what president vale really said his exact words were remove him at first opportunity
00:26:36president vale was the one that recruited me this makes absolutely no sense please adrian
00:26:41the president wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you
00:26:45those gala invitations were professional courtesy not genuine respect well if that's the way things work
00:26:52at vale i have nothing more to contribute to any of you
00:26:56dr marksman would you consider joining heart medical center as our chief of surgery
00:27:02well i've full department autonomy protected research time a surgical fellowship in your name
00:27:09and a seven-figure salary package
00:27:25and cash dr marksman i want you to revolutionize our surgery program
00:27:48hopefully this shows you i mean what i say
00:27:59chief of surgery
00:28:03you're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job
00:28:08dr hart have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs
00:28:12this is absurd he was a mediocre surgeon here at vale and now you're positioning him to lead your entire
00:28:19surgical department
00:28:23medical board should review your hiring practices
00:28:27vivian i appreciate your confidence
00:28:32this isn't about money
00:28:34maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you
00:28:38she's offering herself up to him she can't do that are you a doctor or a call girl at heart medical
00:28:46center you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves including a boss that would do
00:28:53absolutely anything to recognize your value and i do mean anything dr marksman
00:28:58doctor heart for the sake of your own reputation you you need to know that this hack
00:29:06you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history of negligence my father confirmed it himself
00:29:12is that precisely what nelson bale told you his exact words
00:29:18negligence surge what are those
00:29:23personal gifts from your father
00:29:25my fellowship offer my personal research lab my surgical team i'm leaving it all behind
00:29:37you can tell president veil that as of this moment dr marksman has permanently withdrawn
00:29:43from veil hospital and all of its affiliated institutions you know what spare us the theatrics adrian
00:29:50you never deserve those privileges in the first place
00:29:52the medical board is going to see that justice is done oh your stupidity it's just astonishing you treat
00:30:02pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels this man is a life-saving artist
00:30:12dr hart i understand there's some competition between your center and veil hospital
00:30:17yeah look i'll be real we're struggling to get out from under their shadow look i'd be happy to help
00:30:23you out with that take me on and i'll transform heart into the number one surgical institution in the
00:30:29country look at yourself adrian offering your skills to a struggling clinic how pathetically desperate
00:30:38oh a backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber
00:30:43how dare you talk to me like that your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation
00:30:53as the responsible party i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals
00:31:00and with an explanation to every affected veil hospital patient
00:31:05refuse me and i will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently
00:31:10that accusation isn't just baseness it's absurd what exactly do you think you're going to do about
00:31:16it you got no choice but to sign this confession oh stop threatening my chief surgeon if you insist
00:31:23on pursuing this vendetta have your attorney send a formal complaint to heart medical center
00:31:28we'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war if it's war you want
00:31:34it's i will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that i've got
00:31:40let's go one more second and this cesspool is going to make me physically ill

00:32:41shit i'm screwed adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office
00:32:46if preston finds out i stole it and then couldn't even use it properly
00:32:50i implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that i invented myself these techniques are
00:32:58revolutionary i'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency it's impressive dr marksman you've
00:33:04obviously got your own methodology no need to bore me with the specifics i trust your brilliance keep up
00:33:10the good work dr marksman with you leading my surgical team i can focus on what really matters hospital
00:33:16expansion again sir i'm deeply honored
00:33:27behold vale hospital's new chief of surgery let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now
00:33:38glad you're feeling better honey thank you yeah well sorry who's this
00:33:47nelson vale speaking president vale dr vivian hart here i am calling to let you know that as of this
00:33:54morning heart medical center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena revolutionary surgical
00:34:00procedures are vale hospital's domain are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight
00:34:07this is merely a professional courtesy call not an invitation for debate now just
00:34:17just that conniving bitch plotting she knows adrian is our surgical secret weapon why would she
00:34:25deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning
00:34:31unless
00:34:39dad we've got multiple traumas coming in just tell me you didn't fire dr marksman
00:34:43dad relax i fired the other one that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned then explain to
00:34:50me why heart medical center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy
00:34:57because i masterfully led vivian hard into a false sense of reality it's not way a mediocre doctor can
00:35:04revolutionize surgical procedures i convinced vivi that she's acquired surgical brilliance when in reality
00:35:11she's hired our disgrace discarded loser so you deliberately manipulated vivian she thinks
00:35:18she's hired genius behind vale hospital's groundbreaking procedures that's why she had the audacity
00:35:24to declare war on you impressive son you're finally showing some of the leadership qualities
00:35:29uh i've been waiting to see out of you i think you're ready to take complete control of our
00:35:34experimental surgical division
00:35:38dad this this is everything i've worked for thank you we'll get to work immediately we're going to
00:35:44expose heart medical center for the low-grade institution it truly is their humiliation will be
00:35:53quick and absolute i won't let you down darling surgical innovation is the future of vale preston
00:36:02only got his mba last year do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program
00:36:08i would never take a risk like this if preston was our only asset remember we have the ultimate
00:36:16surgical secret weapon you mean the surgeon that saved my life dr adrian marksman exactly and all i need
00:36:25to do is stay hands off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents as long as adrian is with vale
00:36:35hospital heart medical center has no chance of competing not only that vivian fell for preston's
00:36:43manipulation and hired that medical disaster dr david marksman all we have to do now is sit back
00:36:53and watch her would-be empire crumble
00:37:03so now that you've seen the surgical department
00:37:08what do you think it's not bad it's a small team but they're talented
00:37:13what you've built here it's impressive it's good to see you again after all these years adrian
00:37:22you too we need to expand it's too small for what i'm planning also i heard you weren't the only
00:37:32surgeon preston vale fired
00:37:33we have all the angles figured out don't you and i always find the best one
00:37:42i'm gonna start recruiting good the faster we rise the more rewarding this partnership becomes
00:38:09it's better
00:38:13this better be good mr vale you wanted to see me
00:38:18my father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department
00:38:28given your new position as chief of surgery
00:38:31appointing you head of innovation mr vale i uh is there an issue with that no absolutely not
00:38:38the budget for innovation is astronomical and president vale has already handed control to his son
00:38:45if i oversee these procedures i could divert significant resources to my personal research
00:38:51mr vale you can trust me completely i am precisely the right man for the job
00:38:59preston we have a catastrophe on our hands two attending surgeons just submitted their
00:39:03resignation simultaneously the department can't possibly maintain its caseload what they both
00:39:08resigned at once what was their explanation they refused to disclose their reasons but there's
00:39:12talk they were recruited by a former vale physician along with the three other surgeons you fired before
00:39:17former physician adrian marksman this has his saboteur signature all over it
00:39:22president what's our contingency plan the surgical department is severely understaffed
00:39:26if any more surgeons leave patients will suffer okay everybody needs to remain calm
00:39:33you still have me i can rebuild this department ah yes with your stellar reputation we should be able
00:39:40to get the best of the best exactly so we lost some second-rate talent let him go
00:39:48i'll make some calls to cedar sinai and ucla good work marksman
00:39:56this is working out perfectly now i can install my own allies in key positions
00:40:03soon i'll control the entire hospital's medical direction
00:40:26it's an honor to meet you dr hart
00:40:35this is dr parker here he's a triple board certified search and soon he'll be the head of trauma surgery
00:40:41this is dr rose jen rose and thomas all consummate professionals my most trusted colleagues back at vale
00:40:50this is dr heart with this surgical team heart medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country
00:41:00actually the whole world we're eager to begin dr hart well welcome to heart medical center
00:41:08i am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us but i do need to be transparent
00:41:14we have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge vale hospital's dominance
00:41:20have no fear dr hart with adrian leading our team we'll be three steps ahead of anything bail attempts
00:41:27yes but vale has already implemented adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols
00:41:33yeah about that it's a preliminary version if they continue to develop this approach without
00:41:38modification then what a lot of deaths a lot of lawsuits a lot of patients could be harmed or worse
00:41:46these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement
00:41:51those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training without that foundation
00:41:56we're talking about serious complications preventable harm our first priority has to be patient
00:42:02safety we need to perfect these procedures and then we can find a way to prevent
00:42:07veil from continuing with the flawed protocols exactly it's not about competition or pride it's about saving lives
00:42:17we're using our experience with the trial procedures i did at veil to develop next generation surgical
00:42:23techniques eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies even if veil hospital analyzes
00:42:30our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new we'll maintain our significant advantage
00:42:37and if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols rest assured their outcomes will
00:42:43deteriorate i don't wish it upon their patients that's for sure remember this moment in this battle
00:42:50for medical supremacy heart medical center will emerge victorious
00:42:54it's three a.m lost track of time again
00:43:05yeah
00:43:07they have you surprised me
00:43:14looks like you could use a nice rub
00:43:15do you mind no i mean yeah what do you give all your surgeons massages
00:43:26only the ones i really really like
00:43:34you really really liked me adrian i've really really liked you since residency
00:43:39nothing's changed you were our most brilliant resident in the program
00:43:45i never imagined someone like you would like me there was never anyone else that got my attention
00:43:51only you
00:43:54but you were completely oblivious and then you just
00:43:58vanished from the program
00:44:00well i left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in switzerland
00:44:04i know
00:44:08your talent was extraordinary even then
00:44:11back then i made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday
00:44:16you know when i established heart medical center
00:44:19my first priority was recruiting you
00:44:22but that manipulative tyrant nelson bale had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives
00:44:30i understand now
00:44:40so should we pick up where we left off in residency
00:44:45you're the boss
00:44:47that's right

00:46:57you are completely worthless as surgeons
00:47:00dr marksman
00:47:02the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate
00:47:06we need at least uh six months to properly master
00:47:10six months
00:47:11you have 72 hours and i expect hourly updates on my desk
00:47:15sir rushing these delicate procedures
00:47:19dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complication three days

00:50:47Vail hospital won't know what hit him with Adrian leading us victory is guaranteed
00:50:51heart is best heart is best heart is best heart is best
00:51:06are you always this disciplined or are you just trying to impress me
00:51:32If I was trying to impress you, you'd even know.
00:51:37Midnight meetings, long hours, this work ethic of yours, it's a little dangerous.
00:51:49That's what Belle used to say about me. Then they fired me.
00:51:54Then they were fools. You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian. You know that, right?
00:52:09You trying to motivate me again?
00:52:11I don't try. I do.
00:52:19Well, don't work too late.
00:52:24You're no good to me, burnt out.
00:52:35The incompetence is staggering.
00:52:40Yeah, you two are in way over your heads.
00:52:44Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:52:47I give you one simple task and you screw it up!
00:52:50How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:52:54Vail General Hospital is the gold standard and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns.
00:53:01If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow, you're both gone.
00:53:05Is that clear?
00:53:07Yes, sir.
00:53:08This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:53:12Go.
00:53:21Mr. Vail, what a surprise.
00:53:23Cut the bullshit, Marksman.
00:53:26Are we on schedule or not?
00:53:28Of course.
00:53:30We're just refining the final stages.
00:53:33Yeah, everything is under control.
00:53:35Good.
00:53:36If there's a problem, I expect to hear it from you.
00:53:38No cover-ups.
00:53:39Of course, sir.
00:53:43Mr. Vail.
00:53:44Not now.
00:53:45Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:53:47It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here.
00:53:57Don't worry.
00:53:59When Preston makes me chief medical officer, I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:54:05I was back at the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:54:07Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:54:21This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:54:26especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.
00:54:31The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:54:34Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:54:38Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:54:41I hope you're right.
00:54:43For your sake.
00:54:47Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:54:53It's not a success.
00:54:55Yet.
00:54:57Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:54:59Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical, it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.
00:55:04Dr. Heart, we, uh, have a problem.
00:55:19Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.
00:55:23That soon?
00:55:25They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.
00:55:28It's a good thing we're ahead of-
00:55:32You're saying we're ready?
00:55:35Why would I lie?
00:55:37We've been tracking Vail's every move.
00:55:39Let him celebrate.
00:55:41It's just gonna backfire.
00:55:43How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:55:44Vib, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:55:50Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:55:52He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:55:54And?
00:55:55Their model's flawed.
00:55:57If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure in their approach,
00:56:01we won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:56:04And what about when it falls apart?
00:56:06Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.
00:56:10So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:56:16It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:56:19They're using an early draft full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:56:23They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.
00:56:27That actually makes perfect sense.
00:56:30Which means we've already won.
00:56:33Well, this is a big day for us.
00:56:35We should celebrate.
00:56:36What do you have in mind? Drinks?
00:56:39Not quite.
00:56:40You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:56:43What?
00:56:45Why?
00:56:46Let me worry about that.
00:56:48In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout, finish whatever procedures you need to,
00:56:52and meet me in the lobby at 8pm sharp.
00:57:06Preston, we've been through so much together.
00:57:12I know where I'm headed in life, and I know who I want by my side.
00:57:17Tonight, at this launch party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:57:23it's like the perfect moment to ask,
00:57:26will you marry me?
00:57:27Will you marry me?
00:57:35You should be fun.
00:57:37Absolutely.
00:57:39You really know how to take care of your staff, Mr. Vail?
00:57:42Stop it.
00:57:43Too bad you're taken.
00:57:45Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:57:47Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:57:48Told her meet me out here so we can go to this party together.
00:57:51Forget about her.
00:57:52She's just social climbing trash anyways.
00:57:54We'll show you a better time.
00:57:59Now that's an offer I can't refuse.
00:58:00Let's go.

01:06:29at another fake hospital
01:06:31leaving so soon dr pj's
01:06:34say why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life
01:06:37that procedure david used
01:06:43i invented it
01:06:45what kind of crack are you smoking
01:06:47he's delusional
01:06:48somebody seriously check this guy's medical license
01:06:52the notebook he used to save your father
01:06:54that's mine
01:06:56my handwriting
01:06:58my theories
01:06:59you're just pissed because he did what you couldn't
01:07:03i'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories
01:07:06as innovation
01:07:07and when it fails
01:07:09and it will
01:07:11you're not the ones that'll pay for it
01:07:15the patients will
01:07:16you can't prove that
01:07:17not yet
01:07:18but you can't fake medicine
01:07:21medicine and science
01:07:24always tell the truth
01:07:27our three's vitals just dropped
01:07:30we've got uncontrolled bleeding
01:07:32second patient today
01:07:33same issue
01:07:34vessel ligation failed mid-operation
01:07:36these techniques aren't viable
01:07:38the veil method doesn't hold under stress
01:07:40i mean come on
01:07:43tonight proves it
01:07:44we're ahead of every surgical institute in the country
01:07:46i'll be right back
01:07:56just coordinating with the team
01:07:58talk to me
01:08:01the vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again
01:08:04this is the second patient bleeding out tonight
01:08:06use the compression step
01:08:10that only works in controlled scenarios
01:08:13we told you these procedures weren't fully tested
01:08:16look just follow the notes
01:08:18i designed those techniques for 101 guidance
01:08:25not mass implementation
01:08:26without calibration
01:08:28it's unstable
01:08:30it's dangerous
01:08:31they tried to commercialize your success without you
01:08:34now people are paying for it
01:08:37all good
01:08:38of course
01:08:40just routine coordination
01:08:42routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss
01:08:46your surgical program is failing
01:08:48and patients are suffering
01:08:49you've been out of the field for months
01:08:51you wouldn't know
01:08:52yeah i would know
01:08:54because the procedures that you're butchering
01:08:56i invented
01:08:57and i'm the only one in this room
01:08:59who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing
01:09:01oh shit
01:09:03oh yes this is dr marksman
01:09:11yeah connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately
01:09:14okay listen very carefully
01:09:17your patient or three is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:09:22because the vascular bundle clamp technique
01:09:24was improperly executed
01:09:26no you need to perform a marksman modified pringle maneuver
01:09:30with selective hepatic arterial legation
01:09:32followed by a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis
01:09:36using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures
01:09:39yes
01:09:41yes
01:09:44how do we even know he made a phone call
01:09:48his whole thing is performance
01:09:50a charade
01:09:51you stole his methods
01:09:53this entire launch party
01:09:55is built upon stolen work and guesswork
01:09:58uh that's a lie
01:09:59then prove me wrong
01:10:01show them all a technique that i didn't create
01:10:04why would we believe anything he says
01:10:09he was fired
01:10:10humiliated
01:10:10you're right i was fired
01:10:12and the same procedures i pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board
01:10:17as revolutionary
01:10:18you know what this is pathetic
01:10:20he's just jealous
01:10:21he missed his shot
01:10:23is that what you told yourself when you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal
01:10:28even if that were true this isn't the time or the place
01:10:32i think it's exactly the time and place
01:10:36i just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator
01:10:50and thanks to adrian's guidance our surgeons were able to stabilize the coating patients
01:10:56adrian just cleaned up your mess
01:10:59you took this good man's techniques that weren't ready and you fired him
01:11:04the one person who could make them safe
01:11:08dad you don't see the full picture here
01:11:12oh i'm seeing it perfectly well
01:11:15this hospital was built on trust and integrity and you've disgraced them both
01:11:20your father nearly died because of your ego
01:11:24because of his lies
01:11:26you saved me
01:11:29you saved nelson
01:11:31and now
01:11:32you can save vale
01:11:34i tried to warn you all
01:11:36no one listened
01:11:37well they're listening now
01:11:39you deserve to be at vale
01:11:42more than either of those two
01:11:44and probably even more than me
01:11:46it was a mistake to let you go
01:11:49months ago i was fired from vale hospital
01:11:52with procedures still in development
01:11:55they weren't ready
01:11:56they needed supervision
01:11:58precision
01:12:00development
01:12:01instead someone took my notes and tried to fast track them for glory
01:12:05oh
01:12:06you can't prove that
01:12:08security footage
01:12:09of you stealing adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:12:15already submitted to the board
01:12:18i built on what he started
01:12:22okay
01:12:23i didn't steal
01:12:25i enhanced it
01:12:27then why were patients about to die
01:12:29you falsified rollout readiness
01:12:32he did more than that
01:12:34he put lives at risk
01:12:36to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program
01:12:40we're going to need to open a formal investigation on this
01:12:43this is absurd
01:12:45this was supposed to be our night
01:12:47oh it's your night
01:12:48just not the way you thought it'd be
01:12:51you lied to me
01:12:53i didn't lie
01:12:54i simplified the truth
01:12:56i simplified the truth
01:12:56simplify
01:12:57you could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people
01:13:02you nearly killed the president of the hospital
01:13:05you passed up experimental procedures as launch ready
01:13:08that's malpractice
01:13:09they worked
01:13:11nelson's alive
01:13:12look the patients they're alive
01:13:14yeah because of me
01:13:15those methods require sequential tensioning
01:13:18breath control
01:13:19special clamp techniques
01:13:21getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death
01:13:24wait
01:13:24these really are your techniques
01:13:26i tested them for years
01:13:28it was never meant for mass rollout
01:13:31not without training
01:13:33you're rewriting history
01:13:34no you tried to erase him from it
01:13:37adrian marksman was the reason that veil's program had a future
01:13:42and without him it won't
01:13:44this is absurd
01:13:46you're siding with this disgraced former resident
01:13:49he's not disgraced son
01:13:51you are
01:13:52you hijacked a program you didn't understand
01:13:56and then when your ego wasn't enough

01:14:02taking his side dad
01:14:05i'm your son

01:14:22you don't understand the politics of running a hospital
01:14:24we understand the liability
