Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Eight of these accident victims now rest in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:08It's just crashing. We need an attending surgeon now.
00:00:11All the hours are full. We've got three more clinicals incoming.
00:00:15Sir, the patient in trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:17I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:19We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the ER.
00:00:30And you hire. You just started this month.
00:00:44Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level 1 trauma like this.
00:00:48The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:00:50Improve yourself, Dr. Marksman. The patient's yours.
00:00:53Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:02Whipple? Performa? That's insane.
00:01:05Trust me.
00:01:07That's some bomb scissors.
00:01:10Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:14That procedure will take hours. The patient will survive.
00:01:18Obicotery.
00:01:21Watch.
00:01:23He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:31The bleeding. It's under control.
00:01:33But how's the...
00:01:36Tilt suture.
00:01:42Parker, I want you to clamp it exactly where I show you.
00:01:50I've never seen anything like this.
00:01:53I'm almost done.
00:02:02This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:04Jesus, Adrian.
00:02:14What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:17I thought you were just a working surgeon, but that...
00:02:20That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:23Where did you learn the object like that?
00:02:24What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:28Wait.
00:02:29I heard President Bale personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures
00:02:34in Mass General.
00:02:35Oh, is that you?
00:02:36Is that you?
00:02:43Final suture.
00:02:44Mr. Bale's new pancreatic duct is anastomalist.
00:02:52Doctor!
00:02:52The nurses, they said you did it, and you actually did.
00:03:03Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:05Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live, but you saved my Catherine.
00:03:14She'll make the full recovery, President Bale.
00:03:17Name your price, whatever it is.
00:03:18We need you at Bale.
00:03:20My hospital.
00:03:21I'll explain later.
00:03:25Right now, we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:29It's going to take hours.
00:03:31I should go home, get some rest.
00:03:33I'll take over from here.
00:03:35Okay.
00:03:37Good work, everyone.
00:03:38Good work, everyone.
00:04:08They're all stable.
00:04:13Every single one of them.
00:04:14Stabilized.
00:04:19Oh, sun's coming out.
00:04:22You must have operated all night.
00:04:24You're a machine.
00:04:26Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:29All right.
00:04:30It's time for some much-needed Jedi.
00:04:38Hey, you.
00:04:51Hey, yourself.
00:04:54I've been operating all night.
00:04:56You've got every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:00It was just one area.
00:05:01How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:06Because I know you.
00:05:09Better than anyone.
00:05:09Do you remember?
00:05:16Do you remember?
00:05:17Do you remember?
00:05:20First of it.
00:05:22You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:24I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:32It's the third time this week.
00:05:41Possibly he's better than someone else's.
00:05:43Hmm.
00:05:45So who's this marksman guy?
00:05:47His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:49Sure.
00:05:49I thought he was just another new hire.
00:05:51I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:05:54In a town like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department.
00:06:05What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:08Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:13Who is this guy?
00:06:16Preston Bale.
00:06:17Preston Bale's funny.
00:06:18Harvard MBA.
00:06:20He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:23who just recovered from experimental and create a co-duo.
00:06:26Would you like to pay?
00:06:28I'm sorry.
00:06:29Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:34Hard style based on your behavior.
00:06:36Sir, about my...
00:06:37Save it.
00:06:40Parker.
00:06:41You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:45You're fired.
00:06:46They're at your office.
00:06:48New management means new standards.
00:06:51It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:06:53Attention in everybody's attention now.
00:06:59If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:06No complications, no deaths.
00:07:08This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:13Who's he thinking is, Dr. House?
00:07:14What is this?
00:07:18Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:21Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:25This is a hospital.
00:07:27We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:31That's from my residency direction.
00:07:33Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:36Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients, a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:42You're fired.
00:07:43Excuse me?
00:07:44Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop, just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:49Yes, sir.
00:07:50Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:07:53Oh, that was good.
00:07:56Let's go.
00:08:01Well, well, well.
00:08:02What do we have here?
00:08:05Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:07Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:13Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:15No, you didn't.
00:08:17Yes, but here's one anyway.
00:08:19You are fired.
00:08:23Are you serious?
00:08:25You're firing me?
00:08:26Do you need me to draw your diagram, doctor?
00:08:30Well, no.
00:08:30There must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:33Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:35He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Bell.
00:08:40What's he make?
00:08:42$700,000.
00:08:43That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:46$700,000?
00:08:47Are you insane?
00:08:49You're giving resident money to a first year who sleeps on the job?
00:08:52This hospital is being scammed.
00:08:54I just worked all night.
00:08:56I'm just taking a nap.
00:08:57Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:09:00Seen ways doctors.
00:09:02This is criminal negligence.
00:09:04What were you thinking?
00:09:05Hiring is fraud.
00:09:07Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:09:12Adrian and I might be sleeping together.
00:09:15But I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:16My career comes first.
00:09:18What?
00:09:19Why?
00:09:20There must be some clerical error.
00:09:23These credentials.
00:09:25Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:28Fiona.
00:09:28Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
00:09:38Clear out your office.
00:09:39Clear out your locker.
00:09:41Get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:44This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:45You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:47You don't get to bring back.
00:09:48You don't get to bring back, Mark.
00:09:55I see.
00:09:58Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:01You don't understand.
00:10:02He's the one who...
00:10:03Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:05Beat it!
00:10:06Vail is still the number one hospital in the nation.
00:10:08Okay?
00:10:09You don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:28I understand.
00:10:30Hospital politics.
00:10:31Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:37You've been in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:39I'll be waiting.
00:10:48You care to explain that little exchange?
00:10:56Four of them like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient here will suffer.
00:11:01Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:04I intend to wield it.
00:11:06Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:11:10Your little scam artist situation-ship?
00:11:12No, Preston.
00:11:14He means nothing to me.
00:11:15Really.
00:11:16I have no personal stake in your staffing association.
00:11:18You should be clear about your future here.
00:11:21Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:11:26Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks?
00:11:29Including yours.
00:11:31The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:36Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded, who's in charge around here?
00:11:40Hey, Dad.
00:11:50What's wrong?
00:11:50Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:11:53She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:11:57And Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:00Of course, what is it?
00:12:02That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:12:04Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:07Dr. Marksman?
00:12:09Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:12Get out of my hospital.
00:12:14Christ.
00:12:15The resident I just fired?
00:12:17President?
00:12:18Are you there?
00:12:20Check the staff roster.
00:12:22Let's see if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:12:27I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:12:30He's the surgeon who saved her mother's life.
00:12:32And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:36The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:45Ah, yes.
00:12:46I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:50Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:12:54Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:12:58Three-time Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:13:01Is this what you mean, Dad?
00:13:01That's our man.
00:13:03There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:13:08Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:13:10Do me a favor.
00:13:11Fire him.
00:13:13Already done, Dad.
00:13:14I fired the slackrass this morning.
00:13:16Thank God.
00:13:18Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:13:20Good work, son.
00:13:22I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:13:26Just take care of Mom, all right?
00:13:28I got everything else under control.
00:13:36See?
00:13:37I told you that the slackrass that I fired was worthless.
00:13:41Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:45Mr. Bale, sir.
00:13:46Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:48Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:49The six-car pileup.
00:13:50You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:52What's your point?
00:13:53ER is crashing.
00:13:54We have no one left who can handle it.
00:13:58Give me the situation now.
00:14:05Six critical traumas.
00:14:06Three more incoming.
00:14:07Multiple crush injuries.
00:14:09Arterial bleeds, sir.
00:14:11We're losing patients.
00:14:13What are our options?
00:14:14Maybe one solution?
00:14:15Well, spit it out.
00:14:17Your marksman.
00:14:19He had four critical traumas alone last night.
00:14:21If we can get him back here.
00:14:23Marksman.
00:14:24Right.
00:14:24That's the man we need.
00:14:25Fiona, call him.
00:14:26Which doctor, Marksman, should I?
00:14:28The genius surgeon.
00:14:30The one I didn't fire.
00:14:31Keep up.
00:14:36What the hell?
00:14:38Where did all this stuff go?
00:14:39The idiot left his research notes.
00:14:58Mmm.
00:14:59Modified trauma protocol.
00:15:02Wait.
00:15:04This is revolutionary procedures.
00:15:05Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:13Hello?
00:15:14Dr. Marksman?
00:15:16Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:15:18Customer else is if you can handle this crisis.
00:15:20It's a monster motion waiting.
00:15:23I'm on my way.
00:15:24With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:15:31They'll make me department head.
00:15:33And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:41Well?
00:15:42Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:44Thank God.
00:15:45Thank God.
00:15:45Thank God.
00:15:47Now, about your loyalty.
00:15:58Adrian meant nothing.
00:16:00I was using him to advance my career.
00:16:03You're my future.
00:16:05That's my girl.
00:16:05Beyond the shift in an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
00:16:19To hell with this.
00:16:20I'm going up.
00:16:21I'm going up.
00:16:23Piece of shit.
00:16:40Get your hand on my girl.
00:16:44Oh, snap it off.
00:16:46Adrian, you need to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose.
00:16:51You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo, baby?
00:16:55I can choose who I want.
00:16:57And I don't want to display surgeon with no future.
00:17:00You pathetic loser.
00:17:17We're done, Adrian.
00:17:19Ancient history.
00:17:20Are you serious?
00:17:23Just like that.
00:17:25Sorry that this bum knickled your jacket, sir.
00:17:30Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:17:32Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:17:34I need someone of the future.
00:17:35Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:17:42Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:45It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:17:47Oh, look at us, Adrian.
00:17:54I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:17:56And you?
00:18:00Just a slacker.
00:18:01And scrubs.
00:18:03You're washed up, marksman.
00:18:05Perhaps try nursing?
00:18:07I hear they're always hiring.
00:18:09Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:18:11I thought we could build a family together.
00:18:16Get over yourself.
00:18:18You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:18:22President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:18:26We're done.
00:18:30I'm not done.
00:18:32But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:18:37You can count on that.
00:18:41I don't know.
00:18:42Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:18:44Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:45Who authorizes you to be here?
00:18:52Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients
00:18:57from the multi-car accident, and the situation is completely under control.
00:19:02You're Dr. Marksman.
00:19:04Aye, it's the very same.
00:19:05My father mentioned your sexual credentials.
00:19:09Harvard Medical, father?
00:19:12These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:19:17As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:19:22Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:27He was sleeping, but a patient almost died on the table.
00:19:31Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:19:35Dr. Hart.
00:19:43Incredible news.
00:19:45Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking, he's just been terminated
00:19:50from Vail Hospital.
00:19:53When?
00:19:54Less than an hour ago.
00:19:55Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:19:59Huh?
00:20:00Amazing.
00:20:01I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his prized surgeon was fired
00:20:07by his submental son.
00:20:09With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:20:14Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:20:17I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:20:20Full department autonomy.
00:20:23Research funding.
00:20:25State-of-the-art facilities.
00:20:27And if necessary, my personal involvement.
00:20:32His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:20:36Have my car brought round.
00:20:37And I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:20:41An atrium worksman?
00:20:43He's leaving with me.
00:20:50Oh, feasus.
00:20:51What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:20:54Oh, don't insult our intelligence.
00:20:56A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:20:58The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:21:01Yet you stand there denying it.
00:21:02This is crazy.
00:21:04You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:21:06And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital
00:21:09under your incompetent leadership,
00:21:12you blame me.
00:21:16The collective medical knowledge in this room
00:21:18isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:21:21If you were even half the surgeon that you claimed to be,
00:21:24you would still have a job.
00:21:26I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you
00:21:29in front of Mr. Vail.
00:21:30Security, please detain him.
00:21:37What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:21:40Either confess to medical malfeasance
00:21:42or they'll escort you to the police
00:21:45for criminal negligence.
00:21:47Adrian, you never realized
00:21:49you were capable of endangering patients.
00:21:51What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:21:54You better confess now,
00:21:55or we'll do everything in your power
00:21:56to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:22:00Come on.
00:22:01Go ahead.
00:22:03Do your worst.
00:22:04Let's see if a single piece of evidence
00:22:06holds up in front of the medical board.
00:22:07You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:22:14Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here
00:22:16can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:22:19Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:22:22After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:22:25Kristen, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:22:29Not after what he did to our patients.
00:22:31I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:22:35As of this moment,
00:22:36Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital
00:22:39and every medical institute in the country.
00:22:42Plan's in motion, Adrian.
00:22:44Do you know what that means?
00:22:46It means that you will never practice medicine
00:22:48in this country again.
00:22:49I have one question before I go.
00:22:54Did your father know you fired me?
00:22:57My father's the one who asked me to fire you,
00:22:59you dipshit.
00:23:02You thought you were some brilliant surgical god,
00:23:05didn't you?
00:23:07Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:23:10Immediately.
00:23:12It is hooked.
00:23:12And away, sir.
00:23:13That's quite enough.
00:23:29Let him go.
00:23:31Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position
00:23:34as chief of surgical innovation
00:23:37at Heart Medical Center.
00:23:41I know you.
00:23:42You're Vivian Hart,
00:23:44the surgical upstart
00:23:45from that medical clinic across town.
00:23:47That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you,
00:23:50Mr. Vail.
00:23:51Vivian,
00:23:52I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium,
00:23:55like four or five years ago.
00:23:57What are you doing here?
00:23:58Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon
00:24:00in the country, of course.
00:24:03Wait.
00:24:04Are you seriously suggesting
00:24:05this negligent doctor has value?
00:24:08He was sleeping during rounds.
00:24:10Is this how Vail Hospital
00:24:11discards its exceptional talent?
00:24:14Your father built this institution's reputation
00:24:17of medical excellence,
00:24:19not petty politics.
00:24:22Dr. Hart,
00:24:23with all due respect,
00:24:25this is a conversation between medical directors.
00:24:27Someone in your position
00:24:28should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:24:31Dr. Hart,
00:24:32I must inform you that Dr. Marksman
00:24:34represents a serious liability.
00:24:36He compromised patient safety,
00:24:38and...
00:24:38I don't believe I requested
00:24:40your medical opinion,
00:24:41Dr. Marksman.
00:24:43David Marksman.
00:24:44I have neither time nor interest
00:24:46in your assessment.
00:24:48After he decided to go to sleep,
00:24:52we had a critical surgical complication.
00:24:54His negligence led to the problem.
00:24:57His actions not only endangered patients,
00:24:59it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:25:01Are you really willing to defend someone
00:25:04who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:25:07Did you actually consult with your father
00:25:09before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:25:12Of course I consulted my father.
00:25:16He's the one who specifically mentioned
00:25:17his dangerous surgical shortcuts
00:25:19and inflated reputation.
00:25:21Dangerous shortcuts?
00:25:23Is that what President Vail really said?
00:25:26His exact words were,
00:25:27remove him at first opportunity.
00:25:29President Vail was the one
00:25:31that recruited me.
00:25:31This makes absolutely no sense.
00:25:33Please, Adrian.
00:25:34The President wouldn't personally recruit
00:25:36a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:25:39Those gala invitations
00:25:40were professional courtesy,
00:25:42not genuine respect.
00:25:44Well, if that's the way things work at Vail,
00:25:46I have nothing more to contribute
00:25:47to any of you.
00:25:49Dr. Marksman,
00:25:50would you consider joining
00:25:52Heart Medical Center
00:25:52as our chief of surgery?
00:25:56Well, I...
00:25:57Full department upon me.
00:25:59Protected research time.
00:26:01A surgical fellowship in your name.
00:26:03And a seven-figure salary package.
00:26:06Heart Medical Center.
00:26:12Okay.
00:26:12I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:26:42Hopefully this shows you, I mean what I say.
00:26:52Chief of Surgery?
00:26:56You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:27:01Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs?
00:27:06This is absurd.
00:27:07He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.
00:27:10And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:27:16The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:27:20Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:27:25This isn't about money.
00:27:27Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:27:32She's offering herself up to him.
00:27:34She can't do that.
00:27:35Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:27:38At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves, including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:27:49And I didn't mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:27:53Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation, you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history of negligence.
00:28:04My father confirmed it himself.
00:28:06Is that precisely what Nelson Bale told you?
00:28:09His exact words.
00:28:11Anglicence search?
00:28:13What are those?
00:28:15Personal gifts from your father?
00:28:19My fellowship offer?
00:28:23My personal research lab, my surgical team, I'm leaving it all behind.
00:28:30You can tell President Bale that as of this moment, Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn from Bale Hospital and all of its affiliated institutions.
00:28:40You know what?
00:28:41Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:28:43You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:28:46The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:28:49Oh, your stupidity, it's just astonishing.
00:28:54You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:28:58This man is a life-saving artist.
00:29:05Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Bale Hospital.
00:29:10Yeah, look, I'll be real.
00:29:12We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:29:15I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:29:17Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:29:24Look at yourself, Adrian.
00:29:26Offering your skills to a struggling clinic.
00:29:29How pathetically desperate.
00:29:31Oh, a backstabbing bottom-leader like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.
00:29:38How dare you talk to me like that?
00:29:40Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation.
00:29:47As the responsible party, I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals.
00:29:53And with an explanation to every affected Bale Hospital patient.
00:29:57Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently.
00:30:04That accusation isn't just basis.
00:30:06It's absurd.
00:30:07What exactly do you think you're gonna do about it?
00:30:10You've had no choice but to sign this confession.
00:30:13Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.
00:30:15If you insist on pursuing this vendetta, have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:30:21We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:30:26If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dying store clinic with everything that I've got.
00:30:34Let's go.
00:30:35One more second and this cesspool's gonna make me physically ill.
00:30:47Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those secondary practitioners.
00:30:53David, you've proven your loyalty.
00:30:56The chief of surgery position is yours, affected immediately.
00:31:00This is extraordinary.
00:31:04I am honored beyond words.
00:31:09Don't forget about me, Preston.
00:31:12Don't worry, babe.
00:31:13You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:31:18How exciting.
00:31:19Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.
00:31:26Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.
00:31:28Six critical patients incoming.
00:31:30Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:31:32Now's your time, Sean.
00:31:33Dr. Marksman.
00:31:34Shit.
00:31:35Screwed.
00:31:36Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.
00:31:40If Preston finds out I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:31:44I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.
00:31:50These techniques are revolutionary.
00:31:53I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:31:56It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.
00:31:58You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:32:00No need to bore me with the specifics.
00:32:02I trust your brilliance.
00:32:03Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:05With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters.
00:32:09Hospital expansion.
00:32:12Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.
00:32:21Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:32:24Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:32:27Glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:32:29Yeah.
00:32:30Sorry.
00:32:31Who's this?
00:32:32Nelson Vail speaking.
00:32:33Nelson Vail.
00:32:34Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:32:35I am calling to let you know that as of this morning, Hart Medical Center has officially
00:32:50entered the experimental surgery arena.
00:32:52Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:32:56Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:33:00This is merely a professional courtesy call, not an invitation for debate.
00:33:05Now, just...
00:33:11What is that conniving bitch plotting?
00:33:14She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:33:18Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war if she has absolutely no chance of winning?
00:33:23Unless...
00:33:24Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:33:25Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:33:26Dad, relax.
00:33:27Fire the other one.
00:33:28That incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:33:30Can I explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical
00:33:35supremacy?
00:33:36Because I...
00:33:37That's true.
00:33:38That's true.
00:33:39That's true.
00:33:40that's true.
00:33:41An incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:33:44Can I explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy?
00:33:52Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.
00:33:57It's a way of mediocre doctrine and revolutionized surgical procedures.
00:34:01I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:34:05When in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:34:09So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:34:12She thinks she's hired genius.
00:34:15You had Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:34:17That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:34:20Impressive, son.
00:34:21You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:34:24I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:34:26I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:34:33Dad, this is everything I've worked for. Thank you.
00:34:36We get to work immediately.
00:34:38We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:34:46Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:34:49I won't let you down.
00:34:52Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:34:56Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:34:59Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:35:03I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:35:08Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:35:13You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:35:15Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:35:17Exactly.
00:35:18And all I need to do is stay hands-off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:35:28As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:35:35Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:35:44All we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:35:52So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:36:04It's not bad.
00:36:05It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:36:08What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:36:13It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:36:17You too.
00:36:17You need to expand.
00:36:20It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:36:23Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:36:33You have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:36:35And I always find the best one.
00:36:46I'm going to start recruiting.
00:36:47Good.
00:36:50The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership comes.
00:37:08This better be good.
00:37:11Mr. Vail, you wanted to see me?
00:37:14My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:37:23Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:37:28Mr. Vail, I, uh...
00:37:30Is there an issue with that?
00:37:32No, absolutely not.
00:37:34The budget for innovation is astronomical, and President Vail has already handed control to his son?
00:37:40If I oversee these procedures, I can divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:37:47Mr. Vail, you can trust me completely.
00:37:50I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:37:52Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:37:57Two attending surgeons just submit their resignations simultaneously.
00:38:00The department can't possibly maintain its...
00:38:01So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:38:12It's not bad.
00:38:14Dad, relax.
00:38:16This better be good.
00:38:22Mr. Vail, you wanted to see me?
00:38:29My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:38:34Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:38:40Mr. Vail, I, uh...
00:38:42Is there an issue with that?
00:38:43Others talk they were recruited by former field physician.
00:38:46Along with the three other surgeons you've hired before.
00:38:48Former physician Adrian Marksman, this has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:38:53Mr. Vail, what's our contingency plan?
00:38:55The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:38:58If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.
00:39:00Hey, everybody.
00:39:02It's to remain calm.
00:39:04You still have me.
00:39:07I can rebuild this department.
00:39:09Ah, yes.
00:39:10With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:39:13Exactly.
00:39:14So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:39:17Let him go.
00:39:19I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai and UCLA.
00:39:25Good work, Archman.
00:39:29This is working out perfectly.
00:39:31Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:39:34Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:39:37It's an honor to be a treat, after heart.
00:40:03This is Dr. Parker here.
00:40:09He's a triple-board certified surgeon.
00:40:11And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:40:13This is Dr. Rhodes, Jen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:40:18All consummate professionals.
00:40:19My most trusted colleagues back at Baylor.
00:40:25With this surgical team, Heart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.
00:40:32Actually, the whole world.
00:40:33We're here to begin, Dr. Heart.
00:40:36Well, welcome to Heart Medical Center.
00:40:40I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.
00:40:46We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Baylor Hospital's dominance.
00:40:52Have no fear, Dr. Heart.
00:40:54With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Baylor attempts.
00:40:58Yes, but Baylor has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:41:05Yeah, about that.
00:41:06It's a preliminary version.
00:41:08If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:41:11Then what?
00:41:11A lot of deaths, a lot of lawsuits, a lot of patients can be harmed, or worse.
00:41:18These procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.
00:41:22Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training without that foundation.
00:41:28We're talking about serious complications, preventable harm.
00:41:32Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:41:35We need to perfect these procedures,
00:41:37and then we can find a way to prevent Baylor from continuing with the FLOC protocols.
00:41:42Exactly.
00:41:43It's not about competition or pride.
00:41:45It's about saving lives.
00:41:49We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Baylor to develop next generation surgical techniques,
00:41:56eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies.
00:42:00Even if the hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new,
00:42:06we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:42:09And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols,
00:42:13rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:42:16I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:42:20Remember this moment.
00:42:21In this battle for medical supremacy,
00:42:23Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:42:26It's 3 a.m.
00:42:35I'll distract the time again.
00:42:42Viv, you surprised me.
00:42:46Looks like you hit me with a nice rub.
00:42:49Do you mind?
00:42:50No.
00:42:51I mean, yeah.
00:42:55What do you give all your surgeons?
00:42:57Missages?
00:42:59Only the ones I really, really like.
00:43:06You really, really liked me?
00:43:08Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:43:12Nothing's changed.
00:43:15You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:43:18I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:43:20There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:43:24I'll meet you.
00:43:27But you were completely oblivious.
00:43:29And then you just vanished from the program.
00:43:33Well, I left to join the Experimental Surgical Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:43:37I know.
00:43:40Your town was extraordinary even then.
00:43:44Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:43:47You know, when I established our medical center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:43:54But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Bale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:44:02I understand now.
00:44:04So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:44:18You're the boss.
00:44:19That's right.
00:44:20That's right.
00:44:21And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:44:25Tonight?
00:44:26You lost everything on Preston Fire, too.
00:44:29Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital-subsidized apartment.
00:44:37And you have literally nowhere else to come tonight.
00:44:43Tell my game.
00:44:46Where?
00:44:47My place.
00:44:48All right.
00:44:58I'll admit it.
00:44:59That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:45:02Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:45:04I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:45:07That just depends on the company.
00:45:09Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:45:13And tell if the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:45:17Are you sure about that?
00:45:19We already work late hours.
00:45:21Living together could get complicated.
00:45:26Well, I like complicated.
00:45:28It keeps things interesting.
00:45:30And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:45:34Well, my master suite has a California king.
00:45:42Plenty of room.
00:45:47The things that I need to get are more collaborative.
00:45:52Really?
00:45:55Relax.
00:45:56I'm only teasing.
00:45:58Tonight, at least.
00:46:01Come on.
00:46:01I'll show you your room.
00:46:07Unless you'd rather have a night, Cal.
00:46:10Than mine.
00:46:17Things could be dangerous.
00:46:18Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:46:30You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:46:33Dr. Marksman.
00:46:35The experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:46:39We need at least six months to properly mask out.
00:46:42Six months, you have 72 hours.
00:46:46And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:46:48Sir, rushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal
00:46:54complication readays.
00:46:56Then you don't get one hour more.
00:46:59Go.
00:46:59Go.
00:47:00Report, Dr. Marksman, of status.
00:47:07Excellent progress, Mr. Bale.
00:47:08We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:47:13That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:47:15I knew my judgment appointing you was flawless.
00:47:22Professor, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:47:27Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:47:29Outstanding.
00:47:30When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:47:34Your father must be so proud of you.
00:47:36Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:47:39I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:47:43This is my shot.
00:47:44Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:47:46With the right maneuvering, I can become the next chief medical officer of Bale Hospital.
00:47:50Mr. Bale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators
00:47:58such as yourself.
00:47:59I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more
00:48:05effectively throughout the entire hospital.
00:48:06If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.
00:48:12Truly, that's...
00:48:13I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:48:18You're finally awake.
00:48:37You can keep appreciating with you while you eat.
00:48:44All right.
00:48:46A little breakfast.
00:48:48Looks good.
00:48:52When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical way.
00:48:56Sound good?
00:48:56Yes.
00:48:58Absolutely.
00:48:59Good.
00:49:00Get it off and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.
00:49:09Extra special.
00:49:10Okay, team, we're approaching a critical phase of our program development.
00:49:23We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time, so let's
00:49:28get to it.
00:49:28Start revolutionizing medicine.
00:49:30I have excellent news for all of you.
00:49:33I've just finalized arrangements with the board, and upon successful implementation of
00:49:38our surgical innovations, each of you will receive a fully funded medical mission trip anywhere
00:49:44in the world that you choose to share your expertise.
00:49:46And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification, every surgeon
00:49:54on this team will be gifted a percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.
00:50:01At Hart Medical Center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution, and you
00:50:08will be compensated accordingly.
00:50:09Dr. Hart, we are fully committed to making the surgical program a success.
00:50:17Absolutely.
00:50:18You'll be seeing progress ASAP.
00:50:20Vail Hospital won't know what hit him.
00:50:22With Adrian leading us, the victory is guaranteed.
00:50:25Hart is best!
00:50:26Hart is best!
00:50:27Hart is best!
00:50:29Hart is best!
00:50:30Hart is best!
00:50:32We're running while our hearts on fire.
00:50:36Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
00:50:38We're chasing dreams of mine and fire.
00:50:42Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh.
00:50:44We're getting on this path, and waiting to stay.
00:50:47We're getting on this path, and walking on the way.
00:50:53Hmm.
00:51:01You always this disciplined?
00:51:04Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:51:06I was trying to impress you, you even know.
00:51:11Midnight meetings.
00:51:13Long hours.
00:51:16This work ethic of yours.
00:51:19It's a little dangerous.
00:51:23That's what Belle used to say about me.
00:51:26Then they fired me.
00:51:27Then they were fools.
00:51:33You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.
00:51:37You know that, right?
00:51:43You trying to motivate me again?
00:51:45I don't try.
00:51:46I do.
00:51:54Well, don't work too late.
00:51:59You're no good to me burnt out.
00:52:01The incompetence is, uh, is staggering.
00:52:14Yeah, you too are in way over your heads.
00:52:16Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:52:21I give you one simple task, and you screw it up.
00:52:25How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:52:29Vail General Hospital is the gold standard,
00:52:32and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns.
00:52:35If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow,
00:52:38you're both gone.
00:52:40Is that clear?
00:52:42Yes, sir.
00:52:42This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:52:48Go.
00:52:54Oh, Mr. Vail.
00:52:56What a, what a, what a surprise.
00:52:58Cut the bullshit, marksman.
00:53:00Are we on schedule or not?
00:53:02Of course.
00:53:03We're, we're just refining the final stages.
00:53:08Yeah, everything's under control.
00:53:10Good.
00:53:11There's a problem I expect to hear from you.
00:53:13No cover-ups.
00:53:14Of course, sir.
00:53:18Mr. Vail.
00:53:19Not now.
00:53:20Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:53:25It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:53:29on our lovely administrator here.
00:53:32Don't worry.
00:53:33When Preston makes me chief medical officer,
00:53:35I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:53:39I respect the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:53:42Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:53:55This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:54:01especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.
00:54:05The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:54:09Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:54:12Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:54:14I hope you're right.
00:54:16I hope you're right.
00:54:17For your sake.
00:54:21Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:54:27It's not a success yet.
00:54:30Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:54:34Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical,
00:54:37it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.
00:54:39Dr. Heart, we, uh, have a problem.
00:54:55Vail Hospital's new surgical program launched us today.
00:54:58That soon?
00:54:59They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.
00:55:04It's a good thing we're ahead of them.
00:55:06You're saying we're ready?
00:55:10Why would I lie?
00:55:11We've been tracking Vail's every move.
00:55:14Let them celebrate.
00:55:15It's just gonna backfire.
00:55:17How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:55:20Viv, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:55:25Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:55:27He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:55:29And?
00:55:29Their model's flawed.
00:55:31If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach,
00:55:35we won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:55:39And what about when it falls apart?
00:55:41In Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.
00:55:45So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:55:50It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:55:53They're usually an early draft, full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:55:57They don't even realize the cracks in the foundation.
00:56:01That actually makes perfect sense.
00:56:05Which means we've already won.
00:56:08Well, this is a big day for us.
00:56:10We should celebrate.
00:56:11What do you have in mind?
00:56:13Drinks?
00:56:13Not quite.
00:56:14You and I are crushing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:56:18What?
00:56:20Why?
00:56:21Let me worry about that.
00:56:22In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout.
00:56:25Finish whatever procedures you need to.
00:56:27And meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. short.
00:56:29Listen, we've been through so much together.
00:56:47I know where I'm headed in life, and I know who I want by my side.
00:56:52Tonight, at the sponge party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:56:57it's just the perfect moment to ask,
00:57:02will you marry me?
00:57:10It should be fun.
00:57:12Absolutely.
00:57:13You really know how to take care of yourself, Mr. Vail?
00:57:16Oh, stop it.
00:57:17Too bad you're taken.
00:57:19Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:57:21Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:57:22Hold her, meet me out here so we can go to this party together.
00:57:25Forget about her.
00:57:26She's just social-climbing trash anyways.
00:57:29We'll show you a better time.
00:57:34That's an offer I can't refuse.
00:57:35Let's go.
00:57:36Fiona Hill.
00:57:40Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:57:42Number you have dialed is unavailable.
00:58:06Please try again.
00:58:08Please, wait.
00:58:08Please, wait.
00:58:08Please, wait.
00:58:08Please, wait.
00:58:08Please, wait.
00:58:11Please, wait.
00:58:12Please, wait.
00:58:14Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:58:16This is plenty of one day.
00:58:35All clean, all stable.
00:58:37Experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:58:40You did it.
00:58:42No, we didn't.
00:58:46Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Bale's launch party pronto.
00:58:50You're already late.
00:58:51I need to change that.
00:58:52You don't have time.
00:58:53What's it yet?
00:58:55Taking care of something.
00:58:57She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:59:03Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Bale Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:59:16What the fuck?
00:59:23You're my date and you're wasted.
00:59:26I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:59:28Yeah.
00:59:29God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:59:31So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up, for God's sakes.
00:59:35Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
00:59:57It's getting orderly cheap.
01:00:02Maybe he's here to bust tables.
01:00:03What were you doing at our launch party?
01:00:07You weren't invited.
01:00:08You so sure about that?
01:00:09I mean, look at you.
01:00:11This is a black tie?
01:00:12I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
01:00:17Look who crawled in from the gutter.
01:00:20The found surgeon.
01:00:22The fraud.
01:00:23And nobody.
01:00:25Showed up to my party in Beardy Scrubs, Marksman?
01:00:27I thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the low lives.
01:00:32Guess you need to fire them, too.
01:00:33Now, pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
01:00:36Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:00:38What are you trying to say?
01:00:40I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:00:46I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:00:53I've got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:00:57A genius like him leading our surgical team, he won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:01:02Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:01:04When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:01:10What are you talking about?
01:01:13Identity theft.
01:01:15Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:01:17Yours?
01:01:19I'll give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:01:22If you don't got it, you should act like you do.
01:01:25Speaking from experience.
01:01:26Look around you.
01:01:30This is the elite among the elite.
01:01:32The best of the best in the medical field.
01:01:35Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty chief scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:01:39Good.
01:01:40I'm glad.
01:01:41Because you're all beneath me.
01:01:43Isn't that right?
01:01:45Dr. Marksman.
01:01:46That's enough.
01:01:47Guards?
01:01:47This former employee's threatening us.
01:01:51Kick him out.
01:01:53Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:01:57I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:02:00What are you dumbasses doing?
01:02:02Grab him.
01:02:17Preston.
01:02:19What the hell is this?
01:02:21Dad.
01:02:22Relax.
01:02:23I, uh...
01:02:24Relax?
01:02:25This twat came in on invite.
01:02:27I was just kicking him out.
01:02:28Guards, remove him immediately.
01:02:30President Bale, it truly is an honor to finally meet him.
01:02:33You get out of my way.
01:02:35Dad, what are you doing?
01:02:36This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leaving our surgical...
01:02:40You are such a fool!
01:02:44Dad.
01:02:45What are you doing?
01:02:46Open your eyes, Preston.
01:02:49This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:02:52You are...
01:02:55Disgraced!
01:02:57Dad!
01:02:58My hospital meant something and you turned it into a...
01:03:03Into a...
01:03:04Dad!
01:03:11Dad!
01:03:13President Bale.
01:03:14Fuck away from my dad!
01:03:16Are you out of your mind?
01:03:18He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:03:19Oh, yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:03:22I'll die before I trust you two.
01:03:24Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:03:25David!
01:03:26David!
01:03:27You're cold!
01:03:28It's cold!
01:03:33You can't think of what to do next?
01:03:35Blanking?
01:03:36You can't think of a diagnosis?
01:03:38Shut up!
01:03:38Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:03:42This is ridiculous!
01:03:43I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:03:46I'm just standing there...
01:03:47Do something!
01:03:48Huh?
01:03:49What's the matter, David?
01:03:51If you need help, just ask.
01:03:53All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:03:56Right here.
01:03:57Right now.
01:03:57I can't blow my cover, but...
01:04:01What if I kill him?
01:04:03I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:04:05I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:04:07I did medical school on Zoom.
01:04:10David.
01:04:11This is a matter of life and death.
01:04:14Let it go!
01:04:15I...
01:04:17I...
01:04:18I...
01:04:18I can't.
01:04:21I can't do this.
01:04:24Okay, I can't.
01:04:26I can't do this.
01:04:27I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:34That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:36You stole it from me.
01:04:44Okay.
01:04:45Okay.
01:04:46I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:04:51Okay.
01:04:53I got it, I got it.
01:04:55Here, take it, take it.
01:04:57Okay.
01:04:58All right, hold his head.
01:04:59Tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:05:04Okay.
01:05:04Three, four, one.
01:05:21Oh, thank God.
01:05:26How are you?
01:05:33Oh, that's my guy.
01:05:35Surgical genius.
01:05:37That's how Val makes history.
01:05:39Somebody get this man a medal.
01:05:42Or at least a new department.
01:05:43If you still want that chief medical officer position, say the word.
01:05:48Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:05:50That maneuver, that notebook.
01:05:55It's mine.
01:05:56Then tell him.
01:05:57Where is he going?
01:06:03Maybe he's headed to develop another face surgery program and another fake hospital.
01:06:07Well, do you need to do stuff soon, Dr. PJs?
01:06:10Say, hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:06:13That procedure, David Hughes, I invented it.
01:06:21What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:06:23He's delusional.
01:06:25Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:06:28The notebook he used to save your father.
01:06:31That's mine.
01:06:33My handwriting, my theories.
01:06:36Just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:06:39I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:06:44But when it fails, then it will.
01:06:49You're not the ones that will pay for it.
01:06:51The patients will.
01:06:52You can't prove that.
01:06:54Not yet.
01:06:56But you can't fake medicine.
01:06:59Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:07:05Our three's vinyls just dropped.
01:07:07We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:07:08Second patient today.
01:07:09Same issue.
01:07:10Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:07:13These techniques aren't viable.
01:07:14The fail method doesn't hold under stress.
01:07:18I mean, come on.
01:07:19Tonight proves it.
01:07:20We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:07:31We're right back.
01:07:33Just coordinating with the team.
01:07:37Talk to me.
01:07:37The vascular bundle will have maneuver filled again.
01:07:40This is the second patient cleaning out tonight.
01:07:45Use the compression step.
01:07:47That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:07:50We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:07:53Look, just follow the notes.
01:07:54I designed those techniques for one-on-one guidance.
01:08:01Not mass implementation.
01:08:03Without calibration.
01:08:06It's unstable.
01:08:07It's dangerous.
01:08:07They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:08:11Now people are paying for it.
01:08:12All good?
01:08:15Of course.
01:08:17Just routine coordination.
01:08:19Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:08:23Your surgical program is failing.
01:08:25Patients are suffering.
01:08:26You've been out of the field for months.
01:08:28You wouldn't know.
01:08:29Yeah, I would know.
01:08:30Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:08:34And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical way.
01:08:39Bullshit.
01:08:39Oh, yes.
01:08:46This is Dr. Marksman.
01:08:48Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:08:52Okay, listen very carefully.
01:08:54Your patient OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:09:03No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial ligation.
01:09:09Followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:09:17Yes.
01:09:19Yes.
01:09:22I don't even know he made a phone call.
01:09:25This whole thing is performance.
01:09:27It's charade.
01:09:28You stole his methods.
01:09:30This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:09:35Uh, that's a lie.
01:09:36Then prove me wrong.
01:09:37Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:09:43Why would you believe anything he says?
01:09:46You're fired, Julian.
01:09:47You're right, I was fired.
01:09:49The same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:09:55You know what?
01:09:56This is pathetic.
01:09:57He's just jealous.
01:09:58He missed his shot.
01:09:59Is that what you told yourself when you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:10:05Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:10:09I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:10:12I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:10:27And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:10:33Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:10:36You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, and you fired him.
01:10:42The one person who could make them safe.
01:10:46Dad?
01:10:47You don't see the full picture here.
01:10:49Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:10:52This hospital was built on trust and integrity.
01:10:55And you've disgraced them both.
01:10:57Your father nearly died because of your ego.
01:11:01Because of his lies.
01:11:04You saved me.
01:11:07You saved Nelson.
01:11:08And now, you can save Vale.
01:11:11I tried to warn you all.
01:11:13No one listened.
01:11:14They're listening now.
01:11:16You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two.
01:11:21And probably even more than me.
01:11:24It was a mistake to let you go.
01:11:27Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital.
01:11:30The procedure's still in development.
01:11:32They weren't ready.
01:11:34They needed supervision.
01:11:36Precision.
01:11:37Development.
01:11:39Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:11:42Oh.
01:11:43You can't prove that.
01:11:45Security footage.
01:11:49Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.
01:11:54Already submitted to the board.
01:11:55I built on what he started.
01:11:59Okay?
01:12:00I didn't steal.
01:12:02I enhanced it.
01:12:04And why were patients about to die?
01:12:07You falsified roll-out readiness?
01:12:09He did more than that.
01:12:11He put lives at risk.
01:12:13To prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:12:17We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:12:20This is absurd.
01:12:22This was supposed to be our light.
01:12:24Oh, it's your night.
01:12:26It's just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:12:29You lied to me.
01:12:31I didn't lie.
01:12:32I simplified the truth.
01:12:34Simplify?
01:12:35You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:12:40You could nearly kill the president of the hospital.
01:12:42You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:12:45That's malpractice.
01:12:47They worked.
01:12:48Nelson's alive.
01:12:49The patients, they're alive.
01:12:51Yeah, because of me.
01:12:53Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:12:58Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:13:01Wait, these really are your techniques?
01:13:03I tested them for years.
01:13:06It was never meant for mass roll-outs.
01:13:09Not without training.
01:13:10You're rewriting history?
01:13:12No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:13:15Adrian Marksman was the reason that Bale's program had a future.
01:13:19And without him, it won't.
01:13:22This is absurd!
01:13:24You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:13:27He's not disgraced, son.
01:13:29You are.
01:13:31You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:13:34And then when your ego wasn't enough,
01:13:37you propped up this fraud.
01:13:41Taking a side, Dad?
01:13:43I'm your son.
01:13:44I'm taking the side of truth.
01:13:47And so will the board.
01:13:49You will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:13:52Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:13:57Suspended?
01:13:58Oh, no, you can't do that.
01:13:59You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:14:02We understand the liability.
01:14:03That's enough.
01:14:06Mr. Preston Dale.
01:14:08Dr. David Marksman.
01:14:10Come with us.
01:14:11Dad.
01:14:13You're not going to let them drag me out because I'm your son.
01:14:15No.
01:14:15Don't you touch me.
01:14:17You're not a child.
01:14:18Hey, Dad!
01:14:19You're not a child.
01:14:20Hey!
01:14:20You're not a child.
01:14:22Get out of me!
01:14:22Get out of me!
01:14:23Get out of me!
01:14:23Get out of me!
01:14:24I'm just a child!
01:14:25I'm not a child!
01:14:27You're not my responsibility.
01:14:35Jim, please.
01:14:36I made a mistake.
01:14:38I see that now.
01:14:39I should have believed in you.
01:14:41I should have stood by you.
01:14:43You were right about everything.
01:14:48Just give me a second chance.
01:14:50Please.
01:14:52I still love you.
01:14:55Love?
01:14:55You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:14:59You don't understand.
01:15:01I thought he was finished.
01:15:02I thought he had nothing left.
01:15:05So you sold him out.
01:15:07Momped him.
01:15:09Over and over again.
01:15:11I was scared.
01:15:12I...
01:15:12I didn't know what to do.
01:15:14Oh, you knew.
01:15:15You just didn't care.
01:15:17Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:15:21Please.
01:15:23Say something.
01:15:26Anything.
01:15:26You had your chance, Fiona.
01:15:29And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:15:33You always belonged in my operating room.
01:15:45And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:15:51The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.
01:15:55And David will never go near another patient again.
01:16:00We're rebuilding.
01:16:01And I want you back.
01:16:03As Vale's chief.
01:16:05Of experimental surgery.
01:16:08I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:16:11You had your chance, too.
01:16:13I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:16:16Oh.
01:16:16All the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:16:19Adrian 2.0.
01:16:21I'm not coming back.
01:16:22You're choosing her?
01:16:27Our rival?
01:16:28You arrogant little ingrate.
01:16:30I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:16:35Just typical.
01:16:37Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it.
01:16:40For what?
01:16:41Her?
01:16:42She's just going to use you up and cost you aside like everyone else.
01:16:46Oh.
01:16:47Rejecting much, Nelson.
01:16:49Get me out of here.
01:16:51Now!
01:16:52Corma has good timing.
01:17:13Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:17:17We have lives to save.
01:17:18Hey!
01:17:20Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:17:25I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:17:30Now?
01:17:31I'm just going to have my present.
01:17:32This is what good joy tastes like.
01:17:43It's not bad.
01:17:45I need a second opinion.
01:17:49Well, I slept all night.
01:17:51And you're not leaving this room until I properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:17:56Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:17:59You're already exceeding expectations.
01:18:03But I am very thorough.
01:18:05Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:18:16Besides being you, of course.
01:18:18Of course.
01:18:19I was.
01:18:19You're over.
01:18:20I must beació.
01:18:20I'm very thorough.
01:18:21I've ever done something.
01:18:22Derek.
01:18:22I'm very proud.
01:18:23You're also losing my pocket.
01:18:24I'm aware of this city.
01:18:24I remind you.
01:18:24You're due.
01:18:25I have to be married.
01:18:26I'm very blessed that you really need your maintains.
01:18:26That you are going to have a last year.
01:18:27I'm very lucky.
01:18:27You're from smiling for me.
01:18:28I have to fall my mind.
01:18:28I'm very good.
01:18:29I've years old, I'm willing to have to leave this space for me.
01:18:30It's under the homemaking.
