Short filmTranscript
00:00:00A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:00:11The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:20Facials crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:23All the hours are full. We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:26Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:28Well, I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:31We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the EOR.
00:00:50Need a hand?
00:00:52A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:55Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this.
00:01:00Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:01Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:04Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:13Whipple? For trauma?
00:01:16That's insane.
00:01:17Trust me.
00:01:18Metson bomb scissors.
00:01:21Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:26That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:01:29Bovey cautery.
00:01:30Watch.
00:01:39He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:42The bleeding? It's under control.
00:01:45But how did he...
00:01:47Silk suture?
00:01:54Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:01:57Okay.
00:01:57I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:04Almost done.
00:02:13This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:15Jesus, Adrian.
00:02:25What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:28I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:02:31That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:34Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:02:36What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:39Wait.
00:02:40I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:02:47Is that you?
00:02:54Final suture.
00:02:56Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:00Doctor.
00:03:05The nurses.
00:03:07They said you did it.
00:03:09And you...
00:03:10You actually did.
00:03:14Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:17Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live.
00:03:21But you...
00:03:22You saved my Catherine.
00:03:26She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:03:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:03:30We need you at Vail.
00:03:31My hospital.
00:03:35Look, I'll explain later.
00:03:36Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:40It's going to take hours.
00:03:42Y'all should go home.
00:03:43Get some rest.
00:03:44I'll take over from here.
00:03:46Okay.
00:03:48Good work, everyone.
00:03:52You're all stable.
00:04:22Every single one of them.
00:04:24Stabilized.
00:04:29Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:04:32You must have operated all night.
00:04:34You're a machine.
00:04:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:38All right.
00:04:40It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:04:42Hey, you.
00:05:01Hey, yourself.
00:05:02I've been operating all night.
00:05:06I see every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:09What you did was extraordinary.
00:05:12How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:16Because I know you.
00:05:18Better than anyone.
00:05:19Go to bed.
00:05:25Go to bed.
00:05:26Your favorite.
00:05:28You remembered.
00:05:29Where's your bed?
00:05:31You know, I've been thinking lately.
00:05:33About us.
00:05:34I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:49It's the third time this week.
00:05:51Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:53Hmm.
00:05:54So who's this marksman guy?
00:05:56His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:58Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:00I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:04With a town like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:06:14What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:17Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:23Who is this guy?
00:06:25Preston Vale, Preston Vale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:06:29He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:32who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:37I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons?
00:06:40Or med school dropouts?
00:06:43Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:45Sir, about last-
00:06:47Save it.
00:06:49Parker.
00:06:50You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:54You're fired.
00:06:55Clear out your office.
00:06:57New management means new standards.
00:07:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:07:02Attention, everybody's attention now.
00:07:07If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:14No complications, no deaths.
00:07:17This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:19Who does he think he is? Dr. House?
00:07:25What is this?
00:07:27Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:30Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:34This is a hospital.
00:07:36We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:39That was from my residency direction.
00:07:42Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:44Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients
00:07:47and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:51You're fired.
00:07:52Excuse me?
00:07:53Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop,
00:07:55just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:58Yes, sir.
00:08:00Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:03That was good. Let's go.
00:08:10Well, well, well.
00:08:12What do we have here?
00:08:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:16Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:23Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:25No, you didn't.
00:08:26But here's one anyway.
00:08:28You are fired!
00:08:32Are you serious?
00:08:34You're firing me?
00:08:36Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:08:38Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:41Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:43He's...
00:08:46a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:49What's he make?
00:08:50$700,000.
00:08:52That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:54$700?
00:08:56Are you insane?
00:08:57You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:09:01This hospital is being scammed!
00:09:03I just worked all night, okay? I'm just taking a nap.
00:09:05Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?
00:09:08I've seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:09:12What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:09:15Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam!
00:09:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:24My career comes first.
00:09:27Boy, bye!
00:09:29There must be some clerical error.
00:09:31These credentials...
00:09:33Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:36Fiona?
00:09:38Dr. Marksman.
00:09:41You are F-I-R-E-D-
00:09:44Fired.
00:09:46Clear out your office.
00:09:48Clear out your locker.
00:09:50Or get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:52This is a mistake, okay? You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:55Oh, you don't get to wear that, you know.
00:09:56What?
00:10:03I see.
00:10:06Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:09You don't understand.
00:10:10He's the one who-
00:10:11Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:13Beat it!
00:10:14Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:10:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:26I understand.
00:10:27Hospital politics.
00:10:28Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:45Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:47I'll be waiting.
00:10:56You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:04The board won't like this.
00:11:05Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:11:08Patient care will suffer.
00:11:10Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:12I intend to wield it.
00:11:14Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:11:18Your little scam artist situation-ship?
00:11:21No, Preston.
00:11:22He means nothing to me.
00:11:23Really.
00:11:24I have no personal stake in your staffing decision-
00:11:26Let's be clear about your future here.
00:11:30Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:11:34Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:11:40The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:44Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:54Hey, Dad.
00:11:57What's wrong?
00:11:58Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:12:01She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:12:05And Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:08Of course, what is it?
00:12:10That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:12:13Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:16Dr. Marksman?
00:12:17Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:20Get out of my hospital.
00:12:22Christ.
00:12:23The resident I just fired?
00:12:25Preston?
00:12:26Are you there?
00:12:28Check the staff roster.
00:12:30See if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:12:33I had to back up the Brinks truck to get him here.
00:12:38He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:41And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:45The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:54Ah, yes, I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:57Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:13:02Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:13:06Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:13:08Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:13:10That's our man.
00:13:11There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:13:15Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:13:17Do me a favor, fire him.
00:13:20Already done, Dad.
00:13:22I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:13:24Thank God.
00:13:25Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:13:28Good work, son.
00:13:30I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:13:33Just, uh, just take care of Mom, alright?
00:13:35I got everything else under control.
00:13:44See?
00:13:45Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:48Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:52Mr. Vale, sir.
00:13:53Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:55Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:57The six-car pileup.
00:13:58You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:59What's your point?
00:14:00ER is crashing.
00:14:02We've no one left who can handle it.
00:14:10Give me the situation.
00:14:11Now.
00:14:13Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:14:15Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:14:17We're losing patients.
00:14:19What are our options?
00:14:21There might be one solution.
00:14:23Well, spit it out.
00:14:25Dr. Marksman.
00:14:26He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:14:28If we can get him back here.
00:14:30Marksman.
00:14:31Right.
00:14:32That's the man we need.
00:14:33Fiona, call him.
00:14:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:14:36The genius surgeon.
00:14:37The one I didn't fire.
00:14:38Keep up.
00:14:39What the hell?
00:14:40Where'd all this stuff go?
00:14:44The idiot left his research notes.
00:14:49Mmm.
00:14:50Modified trauma protocol.
00:14:52Wait.
00:14:54These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:14:58Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:00Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:03Yeah.
00:15:04Oh.
00:15:05Oh, I can't.
00:15:06Oh.
00:15:07Oh, I can't.
00:15:08Oh, I can't wait.
00:15:09I can't wait.
00:15:10Oh, I can't wait.
00:15:11I can't wait.
00:15:12I can't wait.
00:15:13I can't wait.
00:15:14I can't wait.
00:15:15No, I can't wait.
00:15:16Oh.
00:15:17Oh, I can't wait.
00:15:18Hello?
00:15:21Dr. Marksman, multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:15:25Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:15:29I'm on my way.
00:15:34With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:15:38They'll make me department head, and I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:48Well?
00:15:49Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:51Thank God.
00:16:01Now, about your loyalty.
00:16:05Adrian meant nothing.
00:16:07I was using him to advance my career.
00:16:10You're my future.
00:16:11That's my girl.
00:16:18Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
00:16:26To hell with this.
00:16:27I'm going out.
00:16:42Piece of shit!
00:16:43Get your hand off my girl!
00:16:51Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!
00:16:53You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:16:58You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:17:02I can choose who I want.
00:17:03And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:17:06You pathetic loser.
00:17:07You're a loser.
00:17:13We're done, Adrian.
00:17:25Ancient history.
00:17:27Are you serious?
00:17:29Just like that.
00:17:31Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:17:34Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:17:38Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:17:40I need someone with a future.
00:17:42Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:17:49Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:51It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:17:54Look at us, Adrian.
00:18:00I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:18:03And you?
00:18:06Just a slacker.
00:18:08And scrubs.
00:18:09You're washed up, marksman.
00:18:11Perhaps try nursing?
00:18:13I hear they're always hiring.
00:18:15Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:18:18I thought we could build a family together.
00:18:22Get over yourself.
00:18:24You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:18:28President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:18:34We're done.
00:18:36I'm not done.
00:18:38But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:18:43You can count on that.
00:18:47No, no, no.
00:18:48Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:18:50Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:54He'll authorize you to be here.
00:18:58Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident, and the situation is completely under control.
00:19:07You're Dr. Marksman.
00:19:09Ah, yes, the very same.
00:19:11My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:19:15Harvard Medical, was it?
00:19:16These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:19:23As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:19:28Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:33He was sleeping while a patient almost died on the table.
00:19:37Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:19:47Dr. Hart.
00:19:49Incredible news.
00:19:51Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking, he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:19:59When?
00:19:59Less than an hour ago.
00:20:01Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:20:04Oh, amazing.
00:20:07I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:20:15With our respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:20:20Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:20:23Well, I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:20:26Full department autonomy.
00:20:29Research funding.
00:20:30State-of-the-art facilities.
00:20:33And if necessary, my personal involvement.
00:20:38His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:20:42Have my car brought round.
00:20:44I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:20:47And Adrian Marksman?
00:20:49He's leaving with me.
00:20:50Oh, feasance.
00:20:57What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:20:59Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:21:01A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:21:04The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:21:06Yet you stand there denying it.
00:21:08This is crazy.
00:21:09You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:21:11And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,
00:21:17you blame me.
00:21:21The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:21:26If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be, you would still have a job.
00:21:32I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:21:35Security, please detain him.
00:21:37What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:21:45Either confess to medical malfeasance, or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:21:52Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:21:57What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:21:59You better confess now, or we'll do everything in your power to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:22:04Fine. Go ahead. Do your worst.
00:22:10Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.
00:22:15You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:22:19Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:22:24Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:22:28After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:22:31Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:22:34Not after what he did to our patients.
00:22:37I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:22:40As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital and every medical institute in the country.
00:22:47Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:22:49Do you know what that means?
00:22:51It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.
00:22:55I have one question before I go.
00:22:59Does your father know you fired me?
00:23:02My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.
00:23:07You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?
00:23:12Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:23:15Immediately.
00:23:17Yes, doctor.
00:23:17Right away, sir.
00:23:18That's quite enough.
00:23:34Let him go.
00:23:35Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as chief of surgical innovation at Hart Medical Center.
00:23:45I know you.
00:23:47You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.
00:23:51That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.
00:23:56Vivian, I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium, like four or five years ago.
00:24:01What are you doing here?
00:24:03Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.
00:24:08Wait.
00:24:09Are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?
00:24:13He was sleeping during rounds.
00:24:15Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?
00:24:18Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.
00:24:26Dr. Hart, with all due respect...
00:24:29This is a conversation between medical directors.
00:24:32Someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:24:35Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.
00:24:41He compromised patient safety and...
00:24:43I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, Dr....
00:24:46Marksman, David Marksman.
00:24:48I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.
00:24:53After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.
00:24:59His negligence led to the problem.
00:25:01His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:25:07Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:25:12Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:25:16Of course I consulted my father.
00:25:20He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.
00:25:26Dangerous shortcuts?
00:25:28Is that what President Vail really said?
00:25:30His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.
00:25:34President Vail was the one that recruited me.
00:25:36This makes absolutely no sense.
00:25:37Please, Adrian, the President wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:25:43Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.
00:25:49Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute to any of you.
00:25:53Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:25:58Well, I've...
00:26:01Full department autonomy, protected research time, a surgical fellowship in your name, and a seven-figure salary package.
00:26:10Thank you very much.
00:26:41And cash.
00:26:42Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:26:47Hopefully this shows you.
00:26:49I mean what I say.
00:26:57Chief of surgery?
00:26:58You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:27:05Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment, or are you on drugs?
00:27:10This is absurd.
00:27:12He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail, and now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:27:18The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:27:25Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:27:29This isn't about money.
00:27:31Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:27:37She's offering herself up to him.
00:27:39She can't do that.
00:27:40Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:27:43At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves,
00:27:47including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:27:54And I do mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:27:56Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation, you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing
00:28:04has a documented history of negligence.
00:28:07My father confirmed it himself.
00:28:09Is that precisely what Nelson Bale told you?
00:28:12His exact words.
00:28:15Negligence, Serge.
00:28:17What are those?
00:28:20Personal gifts from your father?
00:28:22My fellowship offer?
00:28:27My personal research lab?
00:28:29My surgical team?
00:28:30I'm leaving it all behind.
00:28:34You can tell President Vail that as of this moment,
00:28:37Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn
00:28:39from Vail Hospital and all of its affiliated institutions.
00:28:43You know what?
00:28:44Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:28:46You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:28:49The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:28:53Oh, your stupidity.
00:28:56It's just astonishing.
00:28:58You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:29:02This man is a life-saving artist.
00:29:09Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Vail Hospital.
00:29:14Yeah, look, I'll be real.
00:29:16We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:29:18Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:29:21Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:29:28Look at yourself, Adrian.
00:29:30Offering your skills to a struggling clinic.
00:29:33How pathetically desperate.
00:29:35Oh.
00:29:36A backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.
00:29:42How dare you talk to me like that!
00:29:44Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation.
00:29:51As the responsible party, I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals.
00:29:57And with an explanation to every affected Vail Hospital patient.
00:30:03Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently.
00:30:07That accusation isn't just baseless.
00:30:10It's absurd.
00:30:12What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?
00:30:15You've got no choice but to sign this confession.
00:30:17Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.
00:30:19If you insist on pursuing this vendetta, have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:30:25We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:30:30If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that I've got.
00:30:37Let's go.
00:30:39One more second and this cesspool's going to make me physically ill.
00:30:51Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those second-rate practitioners.
00:30:57David, you've proven your loyalty.
00:31:00The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.
00:31:04This is extraordinary.
00:31:08I am honored beyond words.
00:31:13Don't forget about me, Preston.
00:31:15Don't worry, babe.
00:31:17You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:31:22How exciting.
00:31:24Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.
00:31:29Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.
00:31:32Six critical patients incoming.
00:31:34Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:31:36Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.
00:31:38Shit.
00:31:39I'm screwed.
00:31:39Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.
00:31:44If Preston finds out, I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:31:47I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.
00:31:54These techniques are revolutionary.
00:31:57I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:32:00It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:02You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:32:04No need to bore me with the specifics.
00:32:06I trust your brilliance.
00:32:07Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:09With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters.
00:32:14Hospital expansion.
00:32:17Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.
00:32:25Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:32:29Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:32:31Glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:32:38Yeah.
00:32:38Well, sorry.
00:32:40Who's this?
00:32:44Nelson Vail speaking.
00:32:46President Vail, Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:32:49I am calling to let you know that as of this morning,
00:32:52Hart Medical Center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena.
00:32:57Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:33:01Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:33:04This is merely a professional courtesy call,
00:33:07not an invitation for debate.
00:33:09Now, just...
00:33:10What is that conniving bitch plotting?
00:33:18She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:33:21Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war
00:33:25she has absolutely no chance of winning?
00:33:29Unless...
00:33:30Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:33:38Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:33:42Dad, relax.
00:33:44I fired the other one.
00:33:45That incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:33:48Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center
00:33:51believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.
00:33:54Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.
00:34:01There's no way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:34:04I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:34:09But in reality, she's hired our disgrace discarded loser.
00:34:13So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:34:15She thinks she's hired genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:34:21That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:34:23Impressive, son.
00:34:25You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:34:27I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:34:29I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:34:34Dad, this is everything I've worked for.
00:34:40We'll get to work immediately.
00:34:41We're going to expose Hart Medical Center
00:34:45for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:34:49Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:34:53I won't let you down.
00:34:55Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:35:00Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:35:02Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:35:06I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:35:12Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:35:16You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:35:19Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:35:21Exactly.
00:35:22And all I need to do is stay hands-off
00:35:26and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:35:31As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital,
00:35:35Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:35:39Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation
00:35:42and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:35:48What we have to do now is sit back
00:35:51and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:35:55So, now that you've seen the surgical department,
00:36:04what do you think?
00:36:07It's not bad.
00:36:09It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:36:11What you've built here,
00:36:13it's impressive, Viv.
00:36:17It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:36:20You too.
00:36:21We need to expand.
00:36:24It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:36:27So,
00:36:28I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:36:37We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:36:39And I always find the best one.
00:36:40I'm going to start recruiting.
00:36:52Good.
00:36:54The faster we rise,
00:36:56the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:36:59This better be good.
00:37:14Mr. Vail,
00:37:16you wanted to see me?
00:37:21My father has granted me complete authority
00:37:24over our experimental surgical department.
00:37:27Given your new position as chief of surgery,
00:37:29I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:37:32Mr. Vail,
00:37:33I, uh...
00:37:34Is there an issue with that?
00:37:35No, absolutely not.
00:37:37The budget for innovation is astronomical,
00:37:40and President Vail has already handed control to his son?
00:37:44If I oversee these procedures,
00:37:46I could divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:37:50Mr. Vail,
00:37:51you can trust me completely.
00:37:53I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:37:55Preston,
00:37:59we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:38:00Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously.
00:38:03The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.
00:38:05What?
00:38:06They both resigned at once?
00:38:07What was their explanation?
00:38:09They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:38:10But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vail physician,
00:38:13along with the three other surgeons you fired before.
00:38:16Former physician Adrian Marksman,
00:38:18this has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:38:21Preston,
00:38:21What's our contingency plan?
00:38:23The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:38:25If any more surgeons leave,
00:38:27patients will suffer.
00:38:28Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.
00:38:32You still have me.
00:38:34I can rebuild this department.
00:38:36Ah, yes.
00:38:37With your stellar reputation,
00:38:39we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:38:41Exactly.
00:38:42So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:38:44Let him go.
00:38:45I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai
00:38:49and UCLA.
00:38:52Good work, Marksman.
00:38:57This is working out perfectly.
00:38:59Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:39:02Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:39:05It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Hart.
00:39:30This is Dr. Parker here.
00:39:36He's a triple board certified surgeon.
00:39:38And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:39:41This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:39:45All consummate professionals.
00:39:47My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.
00:39:52With this surgical team,
00:39:54Hart Medical can revolutionize surgical care
00:39:57all across the country.
00:39:58Actually, the whole world.
00:40:01We're eager to begin, Dr. Hart.
00:40:03Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:40:07I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us,
00:40:11but I do need to be transparent.
00:40:14We have got considerable ground to cover
00:40:16before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.
00:40:19Have no fear, Dr. Hart.
00:40:21With Hadrian leading our team,
00:40:22we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.
00:40:25Yes, but Vail has already implemented
00:40:28Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:40:32Yeah, about that.
00:40:34It's a preliminary version.
00:40:35If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:40:38Then what?
00:40:39A lot of deaths.
00:40:41A lot of lawsuits.
00:40:42A lot of patients could be harmed.
00:40:44Or worse,
00:40:45these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation
00:40:48without proper refinement.
00:40:49Those techniques require precise calibration
00:40:52and specialized training
00:40:53without that foundation.
00:40:56We're talking about serious complications.
00:40:59Preventable harm.
00:41:00Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:41:03We need to perfect these procedures,
00:41:05and then we can find a way to prevent Vail
00:41:07from continuing with the flawed protocols.
00:41:10Exactly.
00:41:10It's not about competition or pride.
00:41:13It's about saving lives.
00:41:14We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Vail
00:41:20to develop next-generation surgical techniques
00:41:23eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies.
00:41:28Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach
00:41:31and attempts to create something new,
00:41:33we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:41:36And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols,
00:41:40rest assured,
00:41:41their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:41:44I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:41:47Remember this moment.
00:41:49In this battle for medical supremacy,
00:41:51Hart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:42:00It's 3 a.m.
00:42:02Lost track of time again.
00:42:04Yeah.
00:42:06Viv, you surprised me.
00:42:13Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:42:16Do you mind?
00:42:18No.
00:42:20I mean, yeah.
00:42:23Will you give all your surgeons massages?
00:42:26Only the ones I really, really like.
00:42:33You really, really like me?
00:42:36Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:42:40Nothing's changed.
00:42:42You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:42:45I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:42:48There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:42:51Only you.
00:42:54But you were completely oblivious.
00:42:56And then you just vanished from the program.
00:42:59Well, I left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in Switzerland.
00:43:04I know.
00:43:07Your talent was extraordinary even then.
00:43:11Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:43:16You know, when I established Hart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:43:21But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Vail, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:43:30I understand now.
00:43:39So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:43:45You're the boss.
00:43:46That's right.
00:43:48And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:43:53Tonight?
00:43:54You lost everything when Preston fired you.
00:43:56Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital-subsidized apartment.
00:44:04And you have literally nowhere else to go tonight.
00:44:10Come with me.
00:44:13Where?
00:44:15My place.
00:44:20Hmm.
00:44:24All right.
00:44:25I'll admit it.
00:44:27That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:44:29Hmm.
00:44:29Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:44:31I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:44:34That just depends on the company.
00:44:36Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:44:41Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:44:45Are you sure about that?
00:44:46We already work late hours.
00:44:49Living together could get complicated.
00:44:53Well, I like complicated.
00:44:55Keeps things interesting.
00:44:58And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:45:01Well,
00:45:01My master suite
00:45:06has a
00:45:08California cake.
00:45:12Plenty of room.
00:45:15If things ever need to get more
00:45:17collaborative.
00:45:20Really?
00:45:22Relax.
00:45:23I'm only teasing.
00:45:25Tonight, at least.
00:45:28Come on.
00:45:29I'll show you your room.
00:45:35Unless you'd rather have a nightcap.
00:45:37And mine.
00:45:44Things could get dangerous.
00:45:46Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:45:58You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:46:01Dr. Marksman,
00:46:02the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:46:06We need at least six months to properly master.
00:46:10Six months?
00:46:12You have 72 hours.
00:46:13And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:46:16Sir, brushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal
00:46:22complications.
00:46:23Three days.
00:46:23Then you don't get one hour more.
00:46:26Go.
00:46:27Go.
00:46:31Report, Dr. Marksman.
00:46:33What's our status?
00:46:34Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.
00:46:36We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:46:40That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:46:42I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.
00:46:50Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:46:54Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:46:56Outstanding.
00:46:57When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:47:02Your father must be so proud of you.
00:47:04Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:47:06I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:47:09This is my shot.
00:47:12Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:47:13With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.
00:47:18Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators
00:47:26such as yourself.
00:47:27I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more
00:47:32effectively throughout the entire hospital.
00:47:35If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the
00:47:39board.
00:47:39Truly, that's...
00:47:41I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:48:03You're finally awake.
00:48:05You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.
00:48:13All right.
00:48:14Ooh, breakfast.
00:48:15Looks good.
00:48:20When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.
00:48:23Sound good?
00:48:24Yes.
00:48:25Absolutely.
00:48:27Good.
00:48:27Get it up and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.
00:48:37Extra special.
00:48:38Okay, team, we're approaching a critical phase of our program development.
00:48:50We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time, so let's
00:48:56get to it.
00:48:56Let's start revolutionizing medicine.
00:48:58I have excellent news for all of you.
00:49:00I've just finalized arrangements with the board, and upon successful implementation of
00:49:06our surgical innovations, each of you will receive a fully funded medical mission trip anywhere
00:49:12in the world that you choose to share your expertise.
00:49:14And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification, every surgeon
00:49:21on this team will be gifted a percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.
00:49:29At Hart Medical Center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution, and you will
00:49:35be compensated accordingly.
00:49:37Dr. Hart, we are fully committed to making this surgical program a success.
00:49:45Absolutely.
00:49:46You'll be seeing progress ASAP.
00:49:48Vail Hospital won't know what hit him.
00:49:50With Adrian leading us, victory's guaranteed.
00:49:53Hart is best!
00:49:54Hart is best!
00:49:55Hart is best!
00:49:56Hart is best!
00:49:57Hart is best!
00:49:57Good.
00:50:00We're running wild hearts on fire.
00:50:03Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
00:50:05We're chasing dreams and climbing higher.
00:50:10Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
00:50:12We can't hold us back.
00:50:14We're waiting to stay.
00:50:15We can't hold us back.
00:50:17We're going on the way.
00:50:20Hmm.
00:50:29You always this disciplined?
00:50:32Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:50:34If I was trying to impress you, you even know.
00:50:39Midnight meetings, long hours, this work ethic of yours, it's a little dangerous.
00:50:51That's what Belle used to say about me.
00:50:54Then they fired me.
00:50:55And they were fools.
00:51:01You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.
00:51:05You know that, right?
00:51:11You trying to motivate me again?
00:51:13I don't try.
00:51:18I do.
00:51:22Well, don't work too late.
00:51:27You're no good to me, burnt out.
00:51:29The incompetence is, uh, is staggering.
00:51:41Yeah, you two are in way over your heads.
00:51:45Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:51:48I give you one simple task, and you screw it up!
00:51:50How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:51:55Vail General Hospital is the gold standard,
00:51:59and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns.
00:52:02If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow,
00:52:05you're both gone.
00:52:06Is that clear?
00:52:08Yes, sir.
00:52:09This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:52:13Come on.
00:52:15Go.
00:52:21Oh, Mr. Vail.
00:52:22What a, what a, what a surprise.
00:52:24Cut the bullshit, Marksman.
00:52:27We're on schedule or not.
00:52:29Of course.
00:52:30We're, we're just refining the final stages.
00:52:34Yeah, everything is under control.
00:52:37Good.
00:52:38There's a problem, I expect to hear it from you.
00:52:40No cover-ups.
00:52:41Of course, sir.
00:52:43Mr. Vail.
00:52:45Not now.
00:52:46Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:52:52It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:52:56on our lovely administrator here.
00:52:58Don't worry.
00:52:59When Preston makes me chief medical officer,
00:53:02I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:53:06I was back at the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:53:13Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:53:22This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:53:27especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.
00:53:32The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:53:37Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:53:39Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:53:42I hope you're right.
00:53:44For your sake.
00:53:45Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:53:54It's not a success.
00:53:56Yet.
00:53:58Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:54:01Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical,
00:54:03it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.
00:54:06Dr. Hurt, we, um, have a problem.
00:54:21Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.
00:54:25That soon?
00:54:26They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.
00:54:31It's a good thing we're headed.
00:54:34You're saying we're ready?
00:54:36Why would I lie?
00:54:38We've been tracking Vail's every move.
00:54:41Let him celebrate.
00:54:42It's just gonna backfire.
00:54:43How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:54:47Viv, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:54:52Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:54:53He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:54:55And?
00:54:56Their model's flawed.
00:54:58If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach,
00:55:02we won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:55:05And what about when it falls apart?
00:55:07Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.
00:55:11So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:55:17It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:55:19They're using an early draft full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:55:24They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.
00:55:28That actually makes perfect sense.
00:55:31Which means we've already won.
00:55:34Well, this is a big day for us.
00:55:36We should celebrate.
00:55:38What do you have in mind?
00:55:39Drinks?
00:55:40Not quite.
00:55:41You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:55:44What?
00:55:46Why?
00:55:47Let me worry about that.
00:55:49In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout.
00:55:51Finish whatever procedures you need to.
00:55:54And meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. sharp.
00:55:56Preston, we've been through so much together.
00:56:14I know where I'm headed in life, and I know who I want by my side.
00:56:17Tonight, at this launch party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:56:25isn't it the perfect moment to ask,
00:56:27will you marry me?
00:56:33This should be fun.
00:56:38Absolutely.
00:56:39You really know how to take care of yourself, Mr. Vail?
00:56:43Stop it.
00:56:43Too bad you're taken.
00:56:45Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:56:46Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:56:48Told her, meet me out here so we can go to this party together.
00:56:51Forget about her.
00:56:53She's just social climbing trash anyways.
00:56:55We'll show you a better time.
00:56:57Now that's an offer I can't refuse.
00:57:02Let's go.
00:57:02Fiona who?
00:57:06Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:57:08Let me get you off.
00:57:16The number you have dialed is unavailable.
00:57:33Please try again later.
00:57:34It's 20 in one day.
00:58:00All clean, all stable.
00:58:03Experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:58:06You did it.
00:58:08No.
00:58:09We did it.
00:58:12Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vail's launch party pronto.
00:58:16You're already late.
00:58:17I need a change then.
00:58:18You don't have time.
00:58:19Where's Vivian?
00:58:20Taking care of something.
00:58:23She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:58:29Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vail Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:58:33What the fuck?
00:58:49You're my date and you're wasted.
00:58:52I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:58:55Yeah.
00:58:55God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:58:57So if you want to keep your job and your status, sober up for God's sakes.
00:59:03Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
00:59:23It's giving orderly sheep.
00:59:28Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:59:30What are you doing at our launch party?
00:59:33You weren't invited.
00:59:35You're so sure about that?
00:59:36I mean, look at you.
00:59:37This is a black tie.
00:59:38I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
00:59:42Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter.
00:59:46The failed surgeon.
00:59:48The fraud.
00:59:49The nobody.
00:59:51Show up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:59:54Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the low lives.
00:59:58Guess I need to fire them, too.
00:59:59Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
01:00:02Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:00:04What are you trying to say?
01:00:06I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:00:12I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:00:19I got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:00:22A genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:00:25You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:00:28Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:00:30When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:00:36What are you talking about?
01:00:39Identity theft.
01:00:41Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:00:43Yours?
01:00:45Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:00:48If you don't got it, at least act like you do.
01:00:51Speaking from experience.
01:00:54Look around you.
01:00:56This is the elite among the elite.
01:00:58The best of the best in the medical field.
01:01:01Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:01:05Good.
01:01:06I'm glad.
01:01:07Because you're all beneath me.
01:01:09Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
01:01:12That's enough.
01:01:13Guards!
01:01:15This former employee is threatening us.
01:01:17Kick him out.
01:01:19Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:01:23I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:01:26What are you dumbasses doing?
01:01:28Grab him.
01:01:29Preston!
01:01:30What the hell is this?
01:01:47Dad.
01:01:48Relax.
01:01:49I, uh...
01:01:49Relax?
01:01:50This twat came in uninvited.
01:01:53I was just kicking him out.
01:01:54Guards!
01:01:55Remove him immediately.
01:01:56President Bale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:01:59You get out of my way!
01:02:01Dad, what are you doing?
01:02:02This is, this is, this is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:02:06You are such a fool!
01:02:09Dad.
01:02:10What are you, what are you doing?
01:02:12Open your eyes, Preston.
01:02:15This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:02:18You are a...
01:02:21Disgraced!
01:02:23Dad!
01:02:24My hospital meant something and...
01:02:27You turned it into a...
01:02:29Into a...
01:02:29Dad!
01:02:32Dad!
01:02:36Dad!
01:02:39President Bale.
01:02:40Fuck away from my dad!
01:02:42Are you out of your mind?
01:02:43He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:02:45Oh yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:02:47I'll die before I trust you two.
01:02:50Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:02:51David!
01:02:52David!
01:02:53Do something!
01:02:54It's cold!
01:02:59Can't think of what to do next?
01:03:01Blinking?
01:03:02Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:03:04Shut up!
01:03:05Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:03:07This is ridiculous.
01:03:09I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:03:12Why are you just standing there?
01:03:13Do something!
01:03:15What's the matter, David?
01:03:16If you need help, just ask.
01:03:19All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:03:21Right here.
01:03:23Right now.
01:03:24I can't blow my cover, but...
01:03:26What if I kill him?
01:03:29I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:03:31I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:03:33I did medical school on Zoom.
01:03:36David.
01:03:37This is a matter of life and death.
01:03:40Let it go!
01:03:40I...
01:03:42I...
01:03:43I...
01:03:44I can't.
01:03:47I can't do this.
01:03:50Okay, I can't...
01:03:51I can't do this.
01:03:53I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:00That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:01He stole it from me.
01:04:03Okay, okay.
01:04:12I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:04:16Okay.
01:04:19I gotta, I gotta...
01:04:21Here, take it, take it, take it.
01:04:23Okay.
01:04:24All right, hold his head.
01:04:25But tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:04:29Okay.
01:04:30Okay.
01:04:41Okay.
01:04:43Okay.
01:04:44Great.
01:04:45Oh.
01:04:46Oh.
01:04:51Oh, thank God.
01:04:52How are you?
01:04:53Let it out.
01:04:57Oh.
01:04:59Oh, that's my guy.
01:05:01Surgical genius.
01:05:03Oh.
01:05:03That's how Val makes history.
01:05:05Somebody get this man a medal.
01:05:07Or at least a new department.
01:05:09If you still want that chief medical officer position,
01:05:12say the word.
01:05:13Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:05:18That maneuver.
01:05:20That notebook.
01:05:21It's mine.
01:05:22Then tell them.
01:05:27Where is he going?
01:05:28Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:05:33Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:05:36Say, hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:05:38That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:05:46What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:05:49He's delusional.
01:05:51Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:05:54The notebook he used to save your father.
01:05:57That's mine.
01:05:58My handwriting.
01:06:00My theories.
01:06:01I'm just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:06:05I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:06:09And when it fails,
01:06:12then it will.
01:06:14You're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:06:17The patients will.
01:06:18You can't prove that.
01:06:20Not yet.
01:06:20But you can't fake medicine.
01:06:24Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:06:31Our three's vitals just dropped.
01:06:32We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:06:34Second patient today.
01:06:35Same issue.
01:06:36Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:06:38These techniques aren't viable.
01:06:40The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:06:43I mean, come on.
01:06:45Tonight proves it.
01:06:46We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:06:56I'll be right back.
01:06:58Just coordinating with the team.
01:07:02Talk to me.
01:07:04The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again.
01:07:06This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:07:11Use the compression step.
01:07:13That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:07:15We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:07:18Look, just follow the notes.
01:07:24I designed those techniques for 101 guidance.
01:07:27Not mass implementation.
01:07:29Without calibration.
01:07:31It's unstable.
01:07:33It's dangerous.
01:07:33They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:07:37Now people are paying for it.
01:07:40All good?
01:07:41Of course.
01:07:43Just routine coordination.
01:07:45Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:07:48Your surgical program is failing.
01:07:50And patients are suffering.
01:07:52You've been out of the field for months.
01:07:54You wouldn't know?
01:07:55Yeah, I would know.
01:07:56Because the procedures that you're butchering,
01:07:58I invented.
01:08:00And I'm the only one in this room
01:08:01who can fix the mess that you made
01:08:02in your surgical wing.
01:08:04Oh, shit.
01:08:11Oh, yes, this is Dr. Marksman.
01:08:13Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:08:18Okay, listen very carefully.
01:08:19Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:08:24because the vascular bundle clamp technique
01:08:26was improperly executed.
01:08:29No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver
01:08:32with selective hepatic arterial ligation
01:08:34followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis
01:08:38using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:08:42Yes.
01:08:45Yes.
01:08:45How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:08:51His whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:08:53You stole his methods.
01:08:55This entire launch party
01:08:57is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:09:00Uh, that's a lie.
01:09:02Then prove me wrong.
01:09:03Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:09:09Why would we believe anything he says?
01:09:11He was fired.
01:09:12Humiliated.
01:09:13You're right, I was fired.
01:09:14And the same procedures I pioneered
01:09:17were renamed and sold back to the board
01:09:19as revolutionary.
01:09:20Yeah, you know what?
01:09:21This is pathetic.
01:09:23He's just jealous.
01:09:24He missed his shot.
01:09:25Is that what you told yourself?
01:09:27When you snuck back into my office
01:09:29and stole my surgical journal?
01:09:31Even if that were true,
01:09:32this isn't the time or the place.
01:09:35I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:09:38I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:09:52And thanks to Adrian's guidance,
01:09:54our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:09:59Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:10:01You took this good man's techniques
01:10:04that weren't ready,
01:10:05and you fired him.
01:10:07The one person who could make them safe.
01:10:11Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:10:15Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:10:17This hospital was built on trust and integrity,
01:10:21and you've disgraced them both.
01:10:22Your father nearly died because of your ego,
01:10:27because of his lies.
01:10:30You saved me.
01:10:32You saved Nelson.
01:10:34And now you can save Vale.
01:10:36I tried to warn you all.
01:10:39No one listened.
01:10:40They're listening now.
01:10:42You deserve to be at Vale
01:10:44more than either of those two,
01:10:47and probably even more than me.
01:10:49It was a mistake to let you go.
01:10:52Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital
01:10:55with procedures still in development.
01:10:58They weren't ready.
01:10:59They needed supervision.
01:11:01Precision.
01:11:03Development.
01:11:04Instead, someone took my notes
01:11:05and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:11:08Oh, you can't prove that.
01:11:10Security footage
01:11:12of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:11:18already submitted to the board.
01:11:21I built on what he started, okay?
01:11:25I didn't steal.
01:11:27I enhanced it.
01:11:29Then why were patients about to die?
01:11:32You falsified rollout readiness?
01:11:35He did more than that.
01:11:36He put lives at risk
01:11:38to prove that he was smarter
01:11:40than the guy that actually created the program.
01:11:42We're going to need to open
01:11:43a formal investigation on this.
01:11:45This is absurd.
01:11:47This was supposed to be our night.
01:11:49Oh, it's your night.
01:11:51Just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:11:54You lied to me.
01:11:56I didn't lie.
01:11:57I simplified the truth.
01:11:59Simplify?
01:12:00You could have caused serious harm
01:12:02to countless innocent people.
01:12:05You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:12:07You passed up experimental procedures
01:12:09as launch ready.
01:12:11That's malpractice.
01:12:12They worked.
01:12:14Nelson's alive.
01:12:15Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:12:17Yeah, because of me.
01:12:18Those methods require sequential tensioning,
01:12:21breath control,
01:12:22special clamp techniques.
01:12:23Getting one beat wrong
01:12:24is the difference between life and death.
01:12:26Wait, these really are your techniques.
01:12:29I tested them for years.
01:12:31It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:12:34Not without training.
01:12:35You're rewriting history?
01:12:37No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:12:40Adrian Morksman was the reason
01:12:42that Vale's program had a future.
01:12:44And without him, it won't.
01:12:47This is absurd!
01:12:49You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:12:52He's not disgraced, son.
01:12:54You are.
01:12:56You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:12:59And then when your ego wasn't enough,
01:13:02you propped up this fraud.
01:13:05Taking his side, Dad?
01:13:08I'm your son!
01:13:10I'm taking the side of truth!
01:13:12And so will the board.
01:13:14We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:13:17Until then, both of you are suspended
01:13:19from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:13:22Suspended?
01:13:23No, no, no, you can't do that.
01:13:24You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:13:27We understand the liability.
01:13:28That's enough.
01:13:29Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Morksman, come with us.
01:13:37Dad, you're not going to let them drag me out like this.
01:13:39I'm your son!
01:13:40No, don't you touch me.
01:13:42You're not a child!
01:13:43Hey, Dad!
01:13:44I'm your son!
01:13:45I built that!
01:13:45Please!
01:13:46Then you're just giving spots out of the...
01:13:47Dad!
01:13:47I'm your son!
01:13:48Dad!
01:13:48Do so, please!
01:13:49Get over it!
01:13:49My sister!
01:13:50I'm your son!
01:13:50I'm your son!
01:13:51I'm your son!
01:13:51I'm your son!
01:13:51I'm your son!
01:13:51You're not my responsibility!
01:13:53Adrian, please.
01:14:02I made a mistake.
01:14:03I see that now.
01:14:04I should have believed in you.
01:14:06I should have stood by you.
01:14:08You were right about everything.
01:14:12Just give me a second chance.
01:14:15Please.
01:14:16I still love you.
01:14:20Love?
01:14:20You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:14:24You don't understand.
01:14:26I thought he was finished.
01:14:29I thought he had nothing left.
01:14:30So you sold him out.
01:14:32Mocked him.
01:14:34Over and over again.
01:14:36I was scared.
01:14:37I...
01:14:38I didn't know what to do.
01:14:39Oh, you knew.
01:14:40You just didn't care.
01:14:42Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:14:46Please.
01:14:48Say something.
01:14:51Anything.
01:14:52You had your chance, Fiona.
01:14:54And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:14:58You always belonged in my operating room.
01:15:09And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:15:15The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.
01:15:20And David will never go near another patient again.
01:15:24We're rebuilding.
01:15:26And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:15:31I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:15:36You had your chance, too.
01:15:38I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:15:40Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:15:44Adrian 2.0.
01:15:46I'm not coming, man.
01:15:50You're choosing her?
01:15:51Our rival?
01:15:53You arrogant little ingrate.
01:15:55I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:16:00Just typical.
01:16:02Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?
01:16:07She's just gonna use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:16:11Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:16:14Get me out of here.
01:16:16Now!
01:16:30Karma has good timing.
01:16:35Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:16:42We have lives to save.
01:16:43Hey!
01:16:44Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:16:49I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:16:55Now?
01:16:56Well, there's no time like the present.
01:17:05This is what victory tastes like.
01:17:08It's not bad.
01:17:10I need a second opinion.
01:17:14Well, I've got all night.
01:17:15And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:17:21Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:17:24You're already exceeding expectations.
01:17:27But I am very thorough.
01:17:29Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:17:41What?
01:17:41Well, I'll tell you every day.
01:17:43I'll tell you either.
01:17:46Okay.
01:17:49Okay.
01:17:50Hello, I'll tell you.
01:17:51Bye.
01:17:52Uh-bye.
01:17:53Bye.
01:17:55Bye.
01:17:56Bye.
01:17:57Bye.
01:17:59Bye.
01:17:59Bye.
01:17:59Bye.
01:18:10Bye.
