You Fired A Genius Surgeon
Transcript
00:00:00...patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:00:03The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team,
00:00:08their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:12Vigil's crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:15All the hours are full. We got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:18Sir, the patient in Trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:20I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:22We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:00:30You need a hand?
00:00:43A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:46Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level 1 trauma like this.
00:00:50Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:00:52Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:00Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:01:03Whipple? For trauma? That's insane.
00:01:06Trust me.
00:01:08Medicine bomb scissors.
00:01:11Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:15That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:01:18Bowbie cautery.
00:01:22Watch.
00:01:22He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:31But bleeding. It's under control.
00:01:33But how did he...
00:01:36Silk suture.
00:01:42Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:01:49I've never seen anything like this.
00:01:52Almost done.
00:01:52This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:12Jesus, Adrian.
00:02:13What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:15I thought you were just a murky surgeon, but...
00:02:17That...
00:02:18That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:21What did you learn to operate like that?
00:02:23What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:26Wait.
00:02:27I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy who...
00:02:30...revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:02:33Is that you?
00:02:34Final suture.
00:02:35Final suture.
00:02:43Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:02:46Doctor.
00:02:47The nurses.
00:02:47They said you did it.
00:02:55And you...
00:02:56You actually did.
00:02:57Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:02Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:03:06You...
00:03:07You saved my Catherine.
00:03:10She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:03:13Name your price for whatever it is.
00:03:14We need you at Vail.
00:03:16My hospital.
00:03:19Look, I'll explain later.
00:03:20Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:24It's going to take hours.
00:03:26Y'all should go home.
00:03:27Get some rest.
00:03:28I'll take over from here.
00:03:29Okay.
00:03:30Good work, everyone.
00:03:59They're all stable.
00:04:05Every single one of them.
00:04:07Stabilized.
00:04:11Oh, sun's coming up.
00:04:14You must have operated all night.
00:04:16You're a machine.
00:04:17Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:20All right.
00:04:21It's time for some much-needed Shed-Eye.
00:04:29Hey, you.
00:04:42Hey, yourself.
00:04:44I've been operating all night.
00:04:47I just gave every single patient in that pileup.
00:04:50What you did was extraordinary.
00:04:52How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:04:56Because I know you.
00:04:58Better than anyone.
00:04:59You were there.
00:05:06Your favorite.
00:05:07You remember.
00:05:09Where's your dad?
00:05:10You know, I've been thinking lately.
00:05:12About us.
00:05:16I know it's only been a month, but...
00:05:19It just feels different.
00:05:27It's the third time this week.
00:05:29Hospital dude's better than someone else's.
00:05:31Hmm.
00:05:33So who's this Marksman guy?
00:05:35His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:36Sure.
00:05:37I thought he was just another new hire.
00:05:39I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:05:42With a town like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:05:45What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:05:54Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:05:58Who is this guy?
00:06:00Who is this guy?
00:06:03Preston Bale.
00:06:04Preston Bale's son.
00:06:05Harvard MBA.
00:06:06He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:13I'm sorry.
00:06:14Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:20Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:22Sir, about that...
00:06:23Save it.
00:06:25Parker.
00:06:25You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:30You're fired.
00:06:31Clear out your office.
00:06:33New management means new standards.
00:06:35It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:06:41Attention.
00:06:42Everybody's attention now.
00:06:44If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:06:50No complications.
00:06:52No deaths.
00:06:53This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:06:55Who does he think he is?
00:06:58Dr. House?
00:07:00What is this?
00:07:02Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:05Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:09This is a hospital.
00:07:11We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:15That was for my residency direction.
00:07:17Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:19Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:25You're fired.
00:07:26Excuse me?
00:07:27Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop, just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:32Yes, sir.
00:07:33Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:07:37That was good.
00:07:38Let's go.
00:07:39Well, well, well, what do we have here?
00:07:47Sleeping after a shift?
00:07:49Rise and shine, superstar.
00:07:55Did I order a wake-up call?
00:07:57No, you didn't.
00:07:58Yes, but here's one anyway.
00:08:00You are fired.
00:08:05Are you serious?
00:08:06You're firing me?
00:08:08Do you need me to draw your diagram, doctor?
00:08:11Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:14Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:16He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:21What's he make?
00:08:22$700,000.
00:08:23That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:26$700,000?
00:08:27Are you insane?
00:08:29Are you giving resident money to a first year who sleeps on the job?
00:08:32This hospital is being scammed.
00:08:34I just worked all night.
00:08:36I'm just taking a nap.
00:08:37Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?
00:08:40Seem lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:08:43What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:08:46Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:08:50Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:08:55My career comes first.
00:08:57Boy, bye.
00:08:59There must be some clerical heir.
00:09:01His credentials.
00:09:03Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:06Fiona?
00:09:08Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D.
00:09:14Fire.
00:09:16Clear out your office.
00:09:17Clear out your locker.
00:09:18Don't get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:22This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:23You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:24You don't get rid of that, you whore.
00:09:32I see.
00:09:35Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:09:38You don't understand.
00:09:39He's the one who...
00:09:40Didn't I fire you two already?
00:09:42Beat it.
00:09:43Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:09:45Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:09:47I understand.
00:10:06Hospital politics.
00:10:08Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:12Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:14I'll be waiting.
00:10:23You care to explain that little exchange?
00:10:30If a board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:10:36Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:10:37I intend to wield it.
00:10:40Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:10:43Your little scam artist situation ship?
00:10:46No, Preston.
00:10:47He means nothing to me.
00:10:49Really.
00:10:50I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:10:51Let's be clear about your future here.
00:10:54Do you want to be with the nobody, collecting unemployment checks, or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:11:04The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:08Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:13Hey, Dad.
00:11:22What's wrong?
00:11:23Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:11:25She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:11:29And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:11:32Of course.
00:11:32What is it?
00:11:33That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:11:36Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:11:39Dr. Marksman?
00:11:40Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:11:43Get out of my hospital.
00:11:45Christ.
00:11:46The resident I just fired?
00:11:48Preston?
00:11:49Are you there?
00:11:51Check the staff roster.
00:11:52Um, see if we have another marksman working for us here.
00:11:57I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:12:00He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:02And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:07The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:10Ah, yes.
00:12:16I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:19Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:12:23Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:12:27Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:12:29Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:12:31That's our man.
00:12:32There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:12:36Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:12:38Do me a favor.
00:12:39Fire him.
00:12:41Already done, Dad.
00:12:42I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:12:45Thank God.
00:12:46Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:12:48Good work, son.
00:12:50I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:12:54Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:12:56I got everything else under control.
00:12:57See?
00:13:04Told you that the slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:08Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:11Mr. Bale, sir.
00:13:13Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:15Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:16The six-car pileup.
00:13:17You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:18What's your point?
00:13:19ER is crashing.
00:13:21We've no one left who can handle it.
00:13:28Give me the situation.
00:13:29Now.
00:13:31Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:13:33Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:13:37We're losing patients.
00:13:38What are our options?
00:13:40There might be one solution.
00:13:41Well, spit it out.
00:13:43Mr. Marksman.
00:13:44He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:13:46If we can get him back here.
00:13:47Marksman.
00:13:49Right.
00:13:49That's the end we need.
00:13:50Fiona, call him.
00:13:51Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:13:53The genius surgeon.
00:13:54The one I didn't fire.
00:13:56Keep up.
00:14:01What the hell?
00:14:03Where'll this stuff go?
00:14:04Idiot left his research notes.
00:14:21Hmm.
00:14:22Modified trauma protocol.
00:14:25Wait.
00:14:27These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:14:28Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:14:36Hello?
00:14:37Dr. Marksman?
00:14:38Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:14:40Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis,
00:14:43there's a monster motion waiting.
00:14:45I'm on my way.
00:14:49With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:14:53They'll make me department head.
00:14:54And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:02Well?
00:15:04Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:06Thank God.
00:15:15Now, about your loyalty.
00:15:19Adrian meant nothing.
00:15:20I was using him to advance my career in my future.
00:15:25That's my girl.
00:15:33Beyond a shift in an hour ago,
00:15:35the boss's son is up to something.
00:15:39To hell with this.
00:15:40I'm going up.
00:15:40Piece of shit!
00:15:59Get your hand on my girl!
00:16:03Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!
00:16:05You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon
00:16:07can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:16:09You mean to tell me that you've been messing around
00:16:12with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:16:14I can choose who I want.
00:16:15And I don't want a disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:16:17You pathetic loser.
00:16:19We're done, Adrian.
00:16:35Ancient history.
00:16:37Are you serious?
00:16:40Just like that.
00:16:41Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:16:44Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:16:48Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:16:50I need someone with a future.
00:16:52Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:16:58Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:01It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:17:03Look at us, Adrian.
00:17:09I'm the future of Vail Hospital, and you?
00:17:15Just a slacker and scrubs.
00:17:18You're washed up, marksman.
00:17:20Perhaps try nursing?
00:17:21I hear they're always hiring.
00:17:24Fiona, I met you here, and it made me want to stay.
00:17:26I thought we could build a family together.
00:17:30Get over yourself.
00:17:32You think I'm going to stay with someone
00:17:33who lied about their credentials?
00:17:36President Vail would never have hired someone
00:17:38who sleeps during shifts.
00:17:42We're done.
00:17:43I'm not done.
00:17:45But when I am,
00:17:47there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:17:50You can count on that.
00:17:51No, no, no.
00:17:55Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:17:57Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:03Who authorized you to be here?
00:18:05Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce
00:18:07that under my supervision,
00:18:08we've stabilized all the patients
00:18:10from the multi-car accident,
00:18:12and the situation is completely under control.
00:18:14You're Dr. Marksman.
00:18:16Ah, yes.
00:18:17The very same.
00:18:18My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:18:20Harvard Medical Hall.
00:18:23These morons have no idea
00:18:26I'm taking credit
00:18:26for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:18:29As long as the boss's son is impressed,
00:18:31I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:18:33Mr. Vail, I've identified
00:18:34who's responsible for all the issues
00:18:36in OR3 today.
00:18:38He was sleeping
00:18:39while the patient almost died on the table.
00:18:42Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:18:44Dr. Hart.
00:18:54Incredible news.
00:18:55Dr. Adrian Marksman,
00:18:57that surgical pioneer
00:18:58that you've been tracking,
00:18:59he's just been terminated
00:19:00from Vail Hospital.
00:19:03When?
00:19:03Less than an hour ago.
00:19:05Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:19:08Huh.
00:19:09Amazing.
00:19:10I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face
00:19:13when he discovers
00:19:14that his prized surgeon
00:19:15was fired by his submental son.
00:19:18With our respect,
00:19:20we're still establishing our reputation.
00:19:23Would someone of Marksman's caliber
00:19:24even consider joining us?
00:19:26We'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:19:29Full department autonomy,
00:19:31research funding,
00:19:33state-of-the-art facilities,
00:19:34and, if necessary,
00:19:37my personal involvement.
00:19:40His techniques could revolutionize
00:19:42surgical care.
00:19:44Have my car brought round.
00:19:46I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:19:49And Adrian Marksman,
00:19:50he's leaving with me.
00:19:57Oh, feezus.
00:19:59What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:20:01Oh, don't insult our intelligence.
00:20:02A patient coded while you were off
00:20:04taking a nap.
00:20:05The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:20:07Yet you stand there denying it.
00:20:09This is crazy.
00:20:10You've all passed me off
00:20:11as some second-rate surgeon.
00:20:13And when a complication occurs,
00:20:14which happened in this hospital
00:20:16under your incompetent leadership,
00:20:19you blame me.
00:20:22The collective medical knowledge
00:20:23in this room
00:20:24isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:20:27If you were even half the surgeon
00:20:28that you claim to be,
00:20:29you would still have a job.
00:20:30I'm not going to stand here
00:20:33and debate medicine
00:20:34with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:20:35Security, please detain him.
00:20:43What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:20:45Either confess
00:20:46to medical malfeasance,
00:20:47or they'll escort you to the police
00:20:49for criminal negligence.
00:20:51Adrian, I never realized
00:20:53you were capable
00:20:54of endangering patients.
00:20:56What other medical atrocities
00:20:57have you committed?
00:20:58You better confess now,
00:20:59or we'll do everything
00:21:00in the power
00:21:01to make sure you lose
00:21:01your medical license.
00:21:04Come on.
00:21:05Go ahead.
00:21:06Do your worst.
00:21:08Let's see if a single piece of evidence
00:21:10holds up in front of the medical board.
00:21:11You really underestimate
00:21:15my family's influence,
00:21:16don't you?
00:21:18Don't you realize
00:21:18that Mr. Vail here
00:21:19can end your entire career
00:21:20with one phone call?
00:21:22Sir, I strongly recommend
00:21:24that we make an example out of him.
00:21:25After all,
00:21:26he'll be a danger to his patients
00:21:27wherever he goes.
00:21:28Kristen,
00:21:29you can't let him walk away after this.
00:21:31Not after what he did
00:21:32to our patients.
00:21:34I'm contacting the medical board
00:21:36right now.
00:21:37As of this moment,
00:21:38Dr. Adrian Marksman
00:21:39is blacklisted
00:21:40from Vail Hospital
00:21:41and every medical institute
00:21:43in the country.
00:21:44Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:21:46Do you know what that means?
00:21:47It means that you
00:21:48will never practice medicine
00:21:50in this country again.
00:21:53I have one question
00:21:54before I go.
00:21:56Does your father know
00:21:57you fired me?
00:21:58My father's the one
00:21:59who asked me to fire you,
00:22:00you dipshit.
00:22:03You thought you were
00:22:04some brilliant surgical god,
00:22:06didn't you?
00:22:07Security,
00:22:08remove this criminal
00:22:09from hospital property
00:22:10immediately.
00:22:11Immediately.
00:22:12Yes, doctor.
00:22:13Right away, sir.
00:22:16That's quite enough.
00:22:29Let him go.
00:22:30Dr. Marksman
00:22:32is about to accept
00:22:33the position
00:22:34as chief
00:22:35of surgical innovation
00:22:36at Hart Medical Center.
00:22:40I know you.
00:22:41You're Vivian Hart,
00:22:43the surgical upstart
00:22:44from that medical clinic
00:22:45across town.
00:22:46That's Dr. Vivian Hart
00:22:48to you,
00:22:49Mr. Vail.
00:22:50Vivian,
00:22:51I haven't seen you
00:22:52since the John Hopkins
00:22:53Symposium
00:22:53like four or five years ago.
00:22:55What are you doing here?
00:22:56Well, I'm here
00:22:57for the most innovative
00:22:58surgeon in the country,
00:22:59of course.
00:23:01Wait.
00:23:02Are you seriously
00:23:03suggesting this
00:23:04negligent doctor
00:23:04has value?
00:23:06He was sleeping
00:23:07during rounds.
00:23:08Is this how
00:23:08Vail Hospital
00:23:09discards its
00:23:10exceptional talent?
00:23:12Your father
00:23:13built this institution's
00:23:14reputation
00:23:14of medical excellence,
00:23:16not petty politics.
00:23:19Dr. Hart,
00:23:20with all due respect...
00:23:22This is a conversation
00:23:23between medical directors.
00:23:24Someone in your position
00:23:25should recognize
00:23:26when to maintain silence.
00:23:28Dr. Hart,
00:23:28I must inform you
00:23:29that Dr. Marksman
00:23:30represents a serious liability.
00:23:33He compromised
00:23:33patient safety and...
00:23:35I don't believe
00:23:36I requested
00:23:36your medical opinion,
00:23:37Dr. Marksman.
00:23:39David Marksman.
00:23:40I have neither time
00:23:41nor interest
00:23:42in your assessment.
00:23:44After he
00:23:45decided to go to sleep,
00:23:47we had a critical
00:23:48surgical complication.
00:23:50His negligence
00:23:51leads to the problem.
00:23:52His actions
00:23:53not only endangered patients,
00:23:54it compromised
00:23:55my hospital's reputation.
00:23:58Are you really
00:23:59willing to defend
00:23:59someone who violates
00:24:01the Hippocratic Oath?
00:24:02Did you actually
00:24:03consult with your father
00:24:04before dismissing
00:24:05Dr. Marksman?
00:24:07Of course I consulted
00:24:08my father.
00:24:11He's the one
00:24:11who specifically
00:24:12mentioned his
00:24:12dangerous surgical
00:24:13shortcuts
00:24:14and inflated reputation.
00:24:16Dangerous shortcuts?
00:24:18Is that what
00:24:19President Vail
00:24:19really said?
00:24:20His exact words were,
00:24:22remove him
00:24:22at first opportunity.
00:24:24President Vail
00:24:25was the one
00:24:25that recruited me.
00:24:26This makes
00:24:26absolutely no sense.
00:24:27Please, Adrian.
00:24:28The President
00:24:29wouldn't personally
00:24:30recruit a mid-level
00:24:31surgeon like you.
00:24:32Those gala invitations
00:24:34were professional courtesy,
00:24:36not genuine respect.
00:24:38Well, if that's the way
00:24:39things work at Vail,
00:24:39I have nothing more
00:24:40to contribute
00:24:41to any of you.
00:24:43Dr. Marksman,
00:24:44would you consider
00:24:45joining Heart Medical Center
00:24:46as our chief of surgery?
00:24:49Well, I've...
00:24:50Full department autonomy,
00:24:52protected research time,
00:24:54a surgical fellowship
00:24:55in your name,
00:24:56and a seven-figure
00:24:57salary package.
00:25:16M. Cash.
00:25:29Dr. Marksman,
00:25:30I want you to revolutionize
00:25:32our surgery program.
00:25:34Hopefully this shows you.
00:25:36I mean what I say.
00:25:37Chief of surgery?
00:25:47You're offering all this
00:25:48to a surgeon
00:25:49who can't even keep
00:25:50his eyes open on the job?
00:25:52Dr. Heart,
00:25:53have you completely lost
00:25:54your medical judgment
00:25:55or are you on drugs?
00:25:57This is absurd.
00:25:58He was a mediocre surgeon
00:25:59here at Vail.
00:26:00And now you're positioning him
00:26:02to lead your entire
00:26:03surgical department?
00:26:04The medical board
00:26:07should review
00:26:07your hiring practices.
00:26:10Vivian,
00:26:11I appreciate your confidence.
00:26:14This isn't about money.
00:26:17Maybe there's something
00:26:18beyond professional opportunity
00:26:20that might interest you.
00:26:22She's offering herself up to him.
00:26:24She can't do that.
00:26:25Are you a doctor
00:26:26or a call girl?
00:26:27At Heart Medical Center,
00:26:29you will be given
00:26:29everything a surgeon
00:26:31of your caliber deserves,
00:26:32including
00:26:33being a boss
00:26:34that would do
00:26:35absolutely anything
00:26:36to recognize your value.
00:26:38And I do mean anything,
00:26:39Dr. Marksman.
00:26:43Dr. Heart,
00:26:44for the sake
00:26:45of your own reputation,
00:26:46you need to know
00:26:47that this hack
00:26:47you're so eagerly pursuing
00:26:49has a documented history
00:26:50of negligence.
00:26:52My father confirmed
00:26:53it himself.
00:26:54Is that precisely
00:26:55what Nelson Bale told you?
00:26:57His exact words.
00:27:00Negligence, Serge.
00:27:01What are those?
00:27:02Personal gifts
00:27:05from your father?
00:27:09My fellowship offer?
00:27:11My personal research lab?
00:27:13My surgical team?
00:27:14I'm leaving it all behind.
00:27:18You can tell
00:27:18President Vail
00:27:19that as of this moment,
00:27:20Dr. Marksman
00:27:21has permanently withdrawn
00:27:22from Vail Hospital
00:27:24and all of its
00:27:25affiliated institutions.
00:27:27You know what?
00:27:28Spare us the theatrics,
00:27:29Adrian.
00:27:29You never deserve
00:27:30those privileges
00:27:31in the first place.
00:27:32The medical board
00:27:33is going to see
00:27:34that justice is done.
00:27:36Oh.
00:27:36Your stupidity,
00:27:38it's just
00:27:39astonishing.
00:27:41You treat pioneering surgeons
00:27:42like disposable scalpels.
00:27:43This man
00:27:45is a life-saving artist.
00:27:51Dr. Hart,
00:27:52I understand
00:27:53there's some competition
00:27:54between your center
00:27:54and Vail Hospital.
00:27:56Yeah.
00:27:56Look,
00:27:57I'll be real.
00:27:58We're struggling
00:27:59to get out
00:27:59from under their shadow.
00:28:00I'd be happy
00:28:01to help you out with that.
00:28:02Take me on
00:28:03and I'll transform Hart
00:28:04into the number one
00:28:05surgical institution
00:28:06in the country.
00:28:07Look at yourself,
00:28:10Adrian.
00:28:11Offering your skills
00:28:12to a struggling clinic.
00:28:13How pathetically desperate.
00:28:16Oh.
00:28:17A backstabbing
00:28:18bottom feeder like you
00:28:19has absolutely
00:28:20no right
00:28:21to judge a surgeon
00:28:21of his caliber.
00:28:22How dare you
00:28:23talk to me like that!
00:28:25Your malpractice
00:28:26has caused
00:28:26catastrophic damage
00:28:28to my hospital's reputation.
00:28:30As the responsible party,
00:28:32I demand that you
00:28:33issue a formal apology
00:28:35to one of the major
00:28:35medical journals
00:28:36and with an explanation
00:28:38to every affected
00:28:39Vail Hospital patient.
00:28:42Refuse me
00:28:43and I will ensure
00:28:44that the medical board
00:28:45revokes your license
00:28:46permanently.
00:28:47That accusation
00:28:48isn't just baseless.
00:28:49It's absurd.
00:28:50What exactly do you think
00:28:51you're going to do about it?
00:28:53You've got no choice
00:28:54but to sign this confession.
00:28:55Oh, stop threatening
00:28:56my chief surgeon.
00:28:58If you insist
00:28:58on pursuing this vendetta,
00:29:00have your attorney
00:29:01send a formal complaint
00:29:02to Hart Medical Center.
00:29:03will consider it
00:29:04nothing less
00:29:05than a declaration
00:29:06of total war.
00:29:08If it's war you want,
00:29:10I will obliterate
00:29:12your dime store clinic
00:29:13with everything
00:29:13that I've got.
00:29:15Let's go.
00:29:17One more second
00:29:17and a cesspool
00:29:18is going to make me
00:29:19physically ill.
00:29:28Mr. Vail,
00:29:29don't you waste
00:29:30another precious moment
00:29:31on those second-rate
00:29:32practitioners.
00:29:34David, you've proven
00:29:35your loyalty.
00:29:37The chief of surgery
00:29:38position is yours
00:29:39effective immediately.
00:29:41This is extraordinary.
00:29:44I am honored beyond words.
00:29:49Don't forget about me,
00:29:50Preston.
00:29:51Don't worry, babe.
00:29:53You will be thoroughly
00:29:55compensated for your loyalty.
00:29:57How exciting.
00:29:59Mr. Vail,
00:30:00I swear on my medical oath
00:30:02that I will not
00:30:03disappoint you.
00:30:05Mr. Vail,
00:30:06a commuter train derailed.
00:30:07Six critical patients
00:30:08incoming.
00:30:09Dr. Marksman,
00:30:10OR1 now.
00:30:11National time to shine,
00:30:12Dr. Marksman.
00:30:13Shit.
00:30:13Screwed.
00:30:14Adrian's surgical journal
00:30:15with all his proprietary
00:30:16techniques is still
00:30:17in my office.
00:30:18If Preston finds out,
00:30:19I stole it
00:30:20and then couldn't even
00:30:21use it properly.
00:30:23I implemented a groundbreaking
00:30:26surgical protocol
00:30:27that I invented myself.
00:30:28These techniques
00:30:29are revolutionary.
00:30:31I'll walk you through it
00:30:31in detail after the emergency.
00:30:34It's impressive,
00:30:34Dr. Marksman.
00:30:35You've obviously got
00:30:36your own methodology.
00:30:37No need to bore me
00:30:39with the specifics.
00:30:39I trust your brilliance.
00:30:41Keep up the good work,
00:30:42Dr. Marksman.
00:30:43With you leading
00:30:43my surgical team,
00:30:44I can focus on
00:30:45what really matters.
00:30:47Hospital expansion.
00:30:49Again, sir,
00:30:50I'm deeply honored.
00:30:58Behold,
00:30:58Vail Hospital's
00:30:59new chief of surgery.
00:31:01Let's see how all
00:31:01these condescending clowns
00:31:03treat me now.
00:31:03I'm glad you're
00:31:08feeling better, honey.
00:31:09Yeah.
00:31:10Oh, sorry.
00:31:12Who's this?
00:31:16Nelson Vail speaking.
00:31:17President Vail,
00:31:18Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:31:20I am calling
00:31:21to let you know
00:31:22that as of this morning,
00:31:23Hart Medical Center
00:31:24has officially entered
00:31:25the experimental
00:31:26surgery arena.
00:31:28Revolutionary
00:31:28surgical procedures
00:31:29are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:31:32Are you absolutely
00:31:33certain you want
00:31:33to pick this fight?
00:31:35This is merely
00:31:36a professional courtesy call,
00:31:37not an invitation
00:31:38for debate.
00:31:39Now, just...
00:31:40What is that conniving
00:31:46bitch plotting?
00:31:48She knows Adrienne
00:31:49is our surgical
00:31:50secret weapon.
00:31:52Why would she
00:31:52deliberately provoke
00:31:54a medical war
00:31:54she has absolutely
00:31:55no chance of winning?
00:31:59Unless...
00:31:59dad, we've got
00:32:06multiple traumas
00:32:07coming in.
00:32:07Just tell me
00:32:08you didn't fire
00:32:08Dr. Marksman.
00:32:11Dad, relax.
00:32:12Fire the other one.
00:32:14That incompetent
00:32:15slacker resident
00:32:15that you mentioned.
00:32:16Then explain to me
00:32:17why Hart Medical Center
00:32:19believes they can
00:32:20suddenly challenge
00:32:21our surgical supremacy.
00:32:23because I
00:32:25masterfully led
00:32:26Vivian Hart
00:32:27into a false
00:32:27sense of reality.
00:32:28It's a way
00:32:29a mediocre doctor
00:32:30can revolutionize
00:32:31surgical procedures.
00:32:32I convince Vivian
00:32:34that she's acquired
00:32:35surgical brilliance.
00:32:36But in reality,
00:32:37she's hired
00:32:38our disgrace
00:32:38discarded loser.
00:32:40So you deliberately
00:32:41manipulated Vivian?
00:32:42She thinks
00:32:43she's hired
00:32:44the genius
00:32:45behind Vail Hospital's
00:32:46groundbreaking procedures.
00:32:48That's why she had
00:32:48the audacity
00:32:49to declare war on you.
00:32:50Impressive, son.
00:32:51You're finally showing
00:32:53some of the leadership
00:32:53qualities.
00:32:54I've been waiting
00:32:55to see out of you.
00:32:56I think you're ready
00:32:57to take complete control
00:32:58of our experimental
00:32:59surgical division.
00:33:02Dad, this is everything
00:33:04I've worked for.
00:33:06We'll get to work
00:33:06immediately.
00:33:07We're going to expose
00:33:09Hart Medical Center
00:33:11for the low-grade
00:33:13institution it truly is.
00:33:15Their humiliation
00:33:16will be quick
00:33:17and absolute.
00:33:18I will ledge down.
00:33:20Darling,
00:33:22surgical innovation
00:33:23is the future of Vail.
00:33:25Preston only got
00:33:26his MBA last year.
00:33:27Do you really think
00:33:28it's wise to entrust him
00:33:29with our most
00:33:30prestigious program?
00:33:31I would never take
00:33:32a risk like this
00:33:34if Preston was
00:33:35our only asset.
00:33:36Remember,
00:33:37we have the ultimate
00:33:39surgical secret weapon.
00:33:41You mean the surgeon
00:33:42that saved my life?
00:33:43Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:33:45Exactly.
00:33:46And all I need to do
00:33:48is stay hands-off
00:33:50and let him exercise
00:33:53his extraordinary talents.
00:33:55As long as Adrian
00:33:56is with Vail Hospital,
00:33:58Hart Medical Center
00:33:59has no chance
00:34:01of competing.
00:34:02Not only that,
00:34:03Vivian fell
00:34:04for Preston's manipulation
00:34:05and hired that
00:34:06medical disaster,
00:34:08Dr. David Marksman.
00:34:10What we have to do now
00:34:12is sit back
00:34:13and watch her
00:34:15would-be empire
00:34:17crumble.
00:34:23So,
00:34:24now that you've seen
00:34:25the surgical department,
00:34:27what do you think?
00:34:30It's not bad.
00:34:31It's a small team,
00:34:32but they're talented.
00:34:33What you've built here,
00:34:35it's impressive, Viv.
00:34:36It's good to see you again
00:34:39after all these years,
00:34:40Adrian.
00:34:42You too.
00:34:43We need to expand.
00:34:45It's too small
00:34:46for what I'm planning.
00:34:48So,
00:34:49I heard
00:34:51you weren't the only
00:34:51surgeon Preston Bale fired.
00:34:57You have all the angles
00:34:58figured out,
00:34:59don't you?
00:35:00And I always find
00:35:00the best one.
00:35:06I'm gonna start recruiting.
00:35:12Good.
00:35:14The faster we rise,
00:35:16the more rewarding
00:35:17this partnership becomes.
00:35:31This better be good.
00:35:33Mr. Bale,
00:35:35you wanted to see me?
00:35:36My father
00:35:41has granted me
00:35:42complete authority
00:35:43over our experimental
00:35:43surgical department,
00:35:45given your new position
00:35:46as chief of surgery,
00:35:48appointing you
00:35:49head of innovation.
00:35:50Mr. Bale,
00:35:51I, uh...
00:35:52Is there an issue
00:35:53with that?
00:35:53No,
00:35:54absolutely not.
00:35:55The budget
00:35:56for innovation
00:35:57is astronomical,
00:35:58and President Bale
00:35:59has already handed
00:36:00control to his son?
00:36:02If I oversee
00:36:03these procedures,
00:36:03I could divert
00:36:04significant resources
00:36:05to my personal research.
00:36:08Mr. Bale,
00:36:09you can trust me
00:36:09completely.
00:36:11I am precisely
00:36:11the right man
00:36:12for the job.
00:36:15Preston,
00:36:16we have a catastrophe
00:36:16on our hands.
00:36:17Two attending surgeons
00:36:18just submitted
00:36:18their resignations
00:36:19simultaneously.
00:36:20The department
00:36:20can't possibly
00:36:21maintain its caseload.
00:36:22What?
00:36:23They both resigned
00:36:24at once?
00:36:24What was their explanation?
00:36:25They refuse
00:36:26to disclose
00:36:26their reasons.
00:36:27But there's talk
00:36:27they were recruited
00:36:28by a former
00:36:28real physician,
00:36:30along with the
00:36:30three other surgeons
00:36:31you fired before.
00:36:32Former physician
00:36:33Adrian Marksman,
00:36:34this has his
00:36:34saboteur signature
00:36:35all over it.
00:36:36President,
00:36:37what's our
00:36:37contingency plan?
00:36:38The surgical department
00:36:39is severely understaffed.
00:36:41If any more surgeons
00:36:42leave,
00:36:42patients will suffer.
00:36:43Okay,
00:36:44everybody
00:36:44needs to remain calm.
00:36:47You still have me.
00:36:49I can rebuild
00:36:50this department.
00:36:51Ah, yes.
00:36:52With your stellar
00:36:53reputation,
00:36:54we should be able
00:36:54to get the best
00:36:55of the best.
00:36:56Exactly.
00:36:57So we lost
00:36:57some second-rate talent.
00:36:59Let him go.
00:37:01I'll make some calls
00:37:02to Cedars-Sinai
00:37:04and UCLA.
00:37:06Good work,
00:37:07Marksman.
00:37:11This is working
00:37:12out perfectly.
00:37:13Now I can install
00:37:13my own allies
00:37:14in key positions.
00:37:16Soon,
00:37:16I'll control
00:37:17the entire hospital's
00:37:18medical direction.
00:37:22It's an honor
00:37:42to meet you,
00:37:42Dr. Hart.
00:37:47This is Dr. Parker
00:37:48here.
00:37:48He's a triple board
00:37:49certified search,
00:37:50and soon he'll be
00:37:51the head
00:37:52of trauma surgery.
00:37:53This is Dr. Rhodes,
00:37:54Chen,
00:37:55Rose,
00:37:56and Thomas,
00:37:57all consummate
00:37:58professionals,
00:37:59my most trusted
00:38:00colleagues back
00:38:01at Bayon.
00:38:04With this surgical team,
00:38:06Hart Medical
00:38:06can revolutionize
00:38:07surgical care
00:38:08all across the country.
00:38:11Actually,
00:38:11the whole world.
00:38:12We're eager to begin,
00:38:13Dr. Hart.
00:38:14Well,
00:38:15welcome to
00:38:16Hart Medical Center.
00:38:17I am thrilled
00:38:19to have surgeons
00:38:20of your caliber
00:38:20joining us,
00:38:21but I do need
00:38:23to be transparent.
00:38:25We have got
00:38:25considerable ground
00:38:26to cover before
00:38:27we can truly
00:38:28challenge
00:38:28Bayon Hospital's
00:38:29dominance.
00:38:30Have no fear,
00:38:30Dr. Hart.
00:38:31With Adrian leading
00:38:32our team,
00:38:33we'll be three steps
00:38:34ahead of anything
00:38:35Bayon attempts.
00:38:36Yes,
00:38:36but Bayon has
00:38:37already implemented
00:38:38Adrian's breakthrough
00:38:40surgical procedure
00:38:40protocols.
00:38:42Yeah,
00:38:42about that.
00:38:43It's a preliminary
00:38:44version.
00:38:45If they continue
00:38:45to develop this
00:38:46approach without
00:38:47modification,
00:38:48then what?
00:38:48A lot of deaths,
00:38:50a lot of lawsuits,
00:38:52a lot of patients
00:38:52could be harmed
00:38:53or worse.
00:38:54These procedures
00:38:55weren't ready
00:38:55for widespread
00:38:56implementation
00:38:57without proper
00:38:57refinement.
00:38:59Those techniques
00:38:59require precise
00:39:00calibration
00:39:01and specialized
00:39:02training
00:39:02without that
00:39:03foundation.
00:39:04We're talking
00:39:05about serious
00:39:06complications,
00:39:07preventable harm.
00:39:08Our first priority
00:39:09has to be patient
00:39:10safety.
00:39:11We need to
00:39:11perfect these
00:39:12procedures,
00:39:13and then we can
00:39:14find a way to
00:39:14prevent Bayon
00:39:15from continuing.
00:39:16with the flawed
00:39:17protocols.
00:39:18Exactly.
00:39:18It's not about
00:39:19competition or pride.
00:39:20It's about saving lives.
00:39:25We're using our
00:39:26experience with the
00:39:26trial procedures I
00:39:27did at Bayon
00:39:28to develop next
00:39:29generation surgical
00:39:30techniques,
00:39:31eliminating all the
00:39:32previous complications
00:39:33and inefficiencies.
00:39:35Even if Bayon
00:39:36Hospital analyzes
00:39:37our fundamental
00:39:38approach and attempts
00:39:39to create something
00:39:40new, we'll maintain
00:39:41our significant
00:39:42advantage.
00:39:43And if they
00:39:44stubbornly continue
00:39:45with their flawed
00:39:46protocols, rest
00:39:47assured, their
00:39:48outcomes will
00:39:49deteriorate.
00:39:50I don't wish it
00:39:51upon their patients,
00:39:52that's for sure.
00:39:53Remember this
00:39:54moment.
00:39:55In this battle for
00:39:56medical supremacy,
00:39:57Heart Medical Center
00:39:58will emerge
00:39:59victorious.
00:39:59It's 3 a.m.
00:40:08Lost track of time
00:40:09again.
00:40:15Viv, you surprised me.
00:40:18Looks like you could
00:40:19use a nice rub.
00:40:21Do you mind?
00:40:23No.
00:40:25I mean, yeah.
00:40:27Will you give all
00:40:28your surgeons
00:40:29massages?
00:40:31Only the ones I
00:40:31really, really like.
00:40:38You really, really
00:40:39like me?
00:40:40Adrienne, I've
00:40:41really, really liked
00:40:41you since residency.
00:40:44Nothing's changed.
00:40:46You were our most
00:40:47brilliant resident
00:40:48in the program.
00:40:49I never imagined
00:40:50someone like you
00:40:51would like me.
00:40:51There was never
00:40:52anyone else that
00:40:52got my attention.
00:40:54Only you.
00:40:57But you were
00:40:58completely oblivious.
00:41:00And then you just
00:41:01vanished from the
00:41:02program.
00:41:03Well, I left to
00:41:04join the Experimental
00:41:05Surgical Fellowship
00:41:06in Switzerland.
00:41:07I know.
00:41:10Your talent was
00:41:11extraordinary even
00:41:12then.
00:41:14Back then, I made
00:41:15a promise to myself
00:41:15that we would work
00:41:16together again someday.
00:41:18You know, when I
00:41:19established Heart
00:41:20Medical Center,
00:41:20my first priority
00:41:22was recruiting you.
00:41:24But that
00:41:24manipulative tyrant,
00:41:27Nelson Bale,
00:41:28had already secured
00:41:29your contracts
00:41:30with ridiculous
00:41:31incentives.
00:41:32I understand now.
00:41:34So, should we pick up
00:41:44where we left off in
00:41:45residency?
00:41:46You're the boss.
00:41:47That's right.
00:41:49And as your boss,
00:41:50I say, come home
00:41:52with me.
00:41:53Tonight?
00:41:54You lost everything
00:41:55when Preston fired you.
00:41:57Hospital privileges,
00:41:58research funding,
00:42:00even your hospital
00:42:02subsidized apartment.
00:42:05You have literally
00:42:07nowhere else to go
00:42:08tonight.
00:42:09Come with me.
00:42:12Where?
00:42:14My place.
00:42:19Hmm.
00:42:23All right.
00:42:24I'll admit it.
00:42:25That was the best
00:42:27meal I've had
00:42:27in months.
00:42:28Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:42:30I might start
00:42:31thinking you're
00:42:31easy to please.
00:42:33That just depends
00:42:34on the company.
00:42:35Well, starting
00:42:36tonight, this is
00:42:38your new home.
00:42:39Until the program's
00:42:40fully established,
00:42:41it just makes sense.
00:42:43Are you sure
00:42:43about that?
00:42:44We already work
00:42:45late hours.
00:42:47Living together
00:42:48could get complicated.
00:42:50Well, I like
00:42:51complicated.
00:42:53Keeps things
00:42:54interesting.
00:42:55And where
00:42:57exactly will I
00:42:58be sleeping?
00:42:58Well,
00:43:00my master suite
00:43:03has a
00:43:05California king.
00:43:09Plenty of room.
00:43:11If things ever
00:43:12need to get
00:43:13more
00:43:13collaborative.
00:43:16Really?
00:43:19Relax.
00:43:20I'm only teasing.
00:43:22Tonight, at least.
00:43:24Come on.
00:43:27I'll show you
00:43:28your room.
00:43:30Unless you'd
00:43:31rather have a nightcap
00:43:32than mine.
00:43:40Things can get dangerous.
00:43:46Is this pathetic
00:43:47attempt really the
00:43:48best that you can do?
00:43:50You are completely
00:43:54worthless as surgeons.
00:43:55Dr. Marksman,
00:43:56the experimental
00:43:58procedures we're
00:43:58trying to replicate
00:43:59here are
00:43:59extraordinarily intricate.
00:44:01We need at least
00:44:02six months
00:44:03to properly mask...
00:44:04Six months?
00:44:06You have 72 hours,
00:44:07and I expect hourly
00:44:08updates on my desk.
00:44:10Sir,
00:44:10brushing these
00:44:11delicate procedures
00:44:12dramatically increases
00:44:14the possibility
00:44:14of potentially fatal
00:44:16complications.
00:44:16Three days,
00:44:17then you don't get
00:44:18one hour more.
00:44:20Go.
00:44:20Go.
00:44:24Report,
00:44:25Dr. Marksman.
00:44:26What's our status?
00:44:27Excellent progress,
00:44:28Mr. Vale.
00:44:29We will be advancing
00:44:30to phase two
00:44:31implementation
00:44:31within three days.
00:44:33That's exactly
00:44:34what I wanted to hear.
00:44:35I knew my judgment
00:44:36in appointing you
00:44:36was flawless.
00:44:37Preston,
00:44:43I need an update
00:44:44on the experimental
00:44:44surgery program.
00:44:46Everything's proceeding
00:44:47perfectly, Father.
00:44:48Outstanding.
00:44:49When this is done,
00:44:50I'll throw you
00:44:51a huge party
00:44:52to celebrate the launch.
00:44:53Your father must be
00:44:54so proud of you.
00:44:56Keep up the good work,
00:44:56Dr. Marksman.
00:44:58I'll make sure my father
00:44:59understands your
00:44:59invaluable contribution.
00:45:02This is my shot.
00:45:03Why settle for
00:45:04chief of surgery?
00:45:05With the right maneuvering,
00:45:05I could become the next
00:45:06chief medical officer
00:45:07of Vail Hospital.
00:45:09Mr. Vail,
00:45:10my purpose
00:45:11is to execute
00:45:12the visionary
00:45:13medical strategies
00:45:14of brilliant administrators
00:45:16such as yourself.
00:45:18I believe that
00:45:18in the position
00:45:19of chief medical officer,
00:45:21I could implement
00:45:22your ideas
00:45:22more effectively
00:45:23throughout the entire hospital.
00:45:25If these procedures
00:45:26prove successful,
00:45:27I will personally discuss
00:45:28your advancement
00:45:28with the board.
00:45:29Truly, that's...
00:45:31I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:45:35You're finally awake.
00:45:58You can keep appreciating
00:46:00the view while you eat.
00:46:02All right.
00:46:02Ooh, breakfast.
00:46:04Looks good.
00:46:08When you're finished eating,
00:46:09we'll head directly
00:46:10to the surgical wing.
00:46:11Sound good?
00:46:12Yes.
00:46:13Absolutely.
00:46:15Good.
00:46:16Get it up and running,
00:46:17and there may be
00:46:18a special bonus
00:46:20waiting for you.
00:46:24Extra special.
00:46:25Okay, team.
00:46:34We're approaching
00:46:35a critical phase
00:46:35of our program development.
00:46:37We have
00:46:37groundbreaking procedures
00:46:38that we need to perfect
00:46:40in very little time,
00:46:41so let's get to it.
00:46:43Start revolutionizing medicine.
00:46:45I have excellent news
00:46:46for all of you.
00:46:47I've just finalized
00:46:48arrangements with the board,
00:46:49and upon successful
00:46:51implementation
00:46:51of our surgical innovations,
00:46:53each of you will receive
00:46:55a fully funded
00:46:56medical mission trip
00:46:57anywhere in the world
00:46:58that you choose
00:46:59to share your expertise.
00:47:00And when the time comes
00:47:02that our procedures
00:47:03receive national certification,
00:47:06every surgeon on this team
00:47:07will be gifted
00:47:08a percentage of the royalties
00:47:10from any techniques
00:47:11we patent.
00:47:11At Hart Medical Center,
00:47:16our surgeons
00:47:16are the lifeblood

00:49:30how the hell did either of you even finish residency
00:49:33vale general hospital
00:49:35is the gold standard
00:49:38and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:49:41if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:49:43you're both gone
00:49:44is that clear
00:49:45yes sir
00:49:47this is the man i trusted to lead my surgical team
00:49:51go
00:49:53oh mr vale what a what a what a surprise
00:50:02cut the bullshit marksman
00:50:03we're on schedule or not

00:50:11yeah everything's under control
00:50:14good
00:50:14there's a problem i expect to hear it from you
00:50:17no cover-ups
00:50:18of course sir
00:50:19mr fail
00:50:22not now
00:50:23go get me the latest performance reports
00:50:25it uh
00:50:29looks like preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here
00:50:34don't worry
00:50:35when preston makes me chief medical officer
00:50:38i'm gonna need someone
00:50:39flexible in my corner
00:50:41i respect the winning team dr marksman
00:50:44today vale hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next generation surgical program
00:50:57this cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:51:02especially as heart medical's competing program was released on the same day
00:51:06the question now is who will define the future of surgery
00:51:10relax mr vale
00:51:12heart medical doesn't stand a chance
00:51:15i hope you're right
00:51:17for your sake
00:51:19didn't you say that uh
00:51:23if the rollout went well that you'd make me
00:51:26chief medical officer
00:51:27it's not a success
00:51:29yet
00:51:30enjoy tonight's launch party
00:51:33because if our results don't outshine heart medical
00:51:36it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate
00:51:38for a long time
00:51:39doctor heart we um have a problem
00:51:52vale hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:51:56that soon
00:51:58they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:52:01it's a good thing we're ahead of
00:52:04you're saying we're ready
00:52:07why would i lie
00:52:09we've been tracking vale's every move
00:52:11let him celebrate
00:52:13it's just gonna backfire
00:52:14how exactly does that work in our favor
00:52:17babe do you remember what i told you
00:52:19when you first brought me here
00:52:21preston vale's rushing this
00:52:24he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:52:26and
00:52:26their model's flawed
00:52:28if they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach
00:52:32we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:52:35and what about when it falls apart
00:52:37then heart medical takes over as the future of modern surgery
00:52:40so you're saying that vale hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed
00:52:47it's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast
00:52:49they're using an early draft
00:52:51full of mistakes that i won't make again
00:52:53they don't even realize the cracks in the foundation
00:52:56that actually
00:52:58makes perfect sense
00:53:00which means
00:53:02we've already won

01:03:08i'm pissed
01:03:09because you used
01:03:10rudimentary theories
01:03:11as innovation
01:03:12and when it fails
01:03:14and it will
01:03:16you're not the ones
01:03:18that'll pay for it
01:03:19the patients will
01:03:20you can't prove that
01:03:22not yet
01:03:23but you can't fake medicine
01:03:25medicine and science
01:03:28always tell the truth
01:03:30our three's vitals
01:03:34just dropped
01:03:35we've got uncontrolled bleeding
01:03:36second patient today
01:03:37same issue
01:03:38vessel ligation failed
01:03:39mid operation
01:03:40these techniques aren't viable
01:03:42the fail method
01:03:43doesn't hold under stress
01:03:44i mean come on
01:03:46tonight proves it
01:03:47we're ahead of every surgical institute
01:03:49in the country
01:03:50i'll be right back
01:03:59just coordinating with the team
01:04:00talk to me
01:04:04the vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again
01:04:07this is the second patient bleeding out tonight
01:04:09use the compression step
01:04:13that only works in controlled scenarios
01:04:15we told you these procedures weren't fully tested
01:04:18look just follow the notes
01:04:20i designed those techniques for 101 guidance
01:04:26not mass implementation
01:04:28without calibration
01:04:30it's unstable
01:04:31it's dangerous
01:04:33they tried to commercialize your success without you
01:04:35now people are paying for it
01:04:38all good?
01:04:41of course
01:04:42just routine coordination
01:04:43routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss
01:04:47your surgical program is failing
01:04:49and patients are suffering
01:04:50you've been out of the field for months
01:04:52you wouldn't know
01:04:53yeah i would know
01:04:55because the procedures that you're butchering
01:04:57i invented
01:04:58and i'm the only one in this room
01:05:00who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing
01:05:02bullshit
01:05:04oh yes this is dr marksman
01:05:11yeah connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately
01:05:14okay listen very carefully
01:05:17your patient OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:05:21because the vascular bundle clamp technique
01:05:24was improperly executed
01:05:25no you need to perform a marksman modified pringle maneuver
01:05:29with selective hepatic arterial ligation
01:05:31followed by a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis
01:05:35using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures
01:05:38yes
01:05:40yes
01:05:42how do we even know he made a phone call
01:05:46this whole thing is performance
01:05:48charade
01:05:49you stole his methods
01:05:51this entire launch party
01:05:53is built upon stolen work and guesswork
01:05:56uh that's a lie
01:05:57then prove me wrong
01:05:58show them all a technique that i didn't create
01:06:01why would we believe anything he says
01:06:06he was fired
01:06:07humiliated
01:06:08you're right i was fired
01:06:10the same procedures i pioneered
01:06:12were renamed and sold back to the board
01:06:14as revolutionary
01:06:15you know what this is pathetic
01:06:17he's just jealous
01:06:19he missed his shot
01:06:20is that what you told yourself
01:06:22when you snuck back into my office
01:06:24and stole my surgical journal
01:06:25even if that were true
01:06:27this isn't the time or the place
01:06:29i think it's exactly the time and place
01:06:32i just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator
01:06:45and thanks to adrian's guidance
01:06:48our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients
01:06:52adrian just cleaned up your mess
01:06:55you took this good man's techniques
01:06:57that weren't ready
01:06:58and you fired him
01:07:00the one person who could make them safe
01:07:03dad
01:07:05you don't see the full picture here
01:07:07oh i'm seeing it perfectly well
01:07:09this hospital was built on trust
01:07:12and integrity
01:07:12and you've disgraced them both
01:07:15your father nearly died because of your ego
01:07:18because of his lies
01:07:20you saved me
01:07:23you saved nelson
01:07:25and now
01:07:26you can save veil
01:07:28tried to warn you all
01:07:29no one listened
01:07:31they're listening now
01:07:32you deserve to be at veil
01:07:35more than either of those two
01:07:37and probably even more than me
01:07:39it was a mistake to let you go
01:07:42months ago i was fired from veil hospital
01:07:46the procedure's still in development
01:07:48they weren't ready
01:07:50they needed supervision
01:07:51precision
01:07:53development
01:07:54instead someone took my notes
01:07:56and tried to fast track them for glory
01:07:58oh
01:07:59you can't prove that
01:08:00security footage
01:08:02of you stealing adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:08:08already submitted to the board
01:08:11i built on what he started
01:08:14i didn't steal
01:08:17i enhanced it
01:08:19and why were patients about to die
01:08:20you falsified rollout readiness
01:08:24he did more than that
01:08:25he put lives at risk
01:08:27to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program
01:08:31we're going to need to open a formal investigation on this
01:08:34this is absurd
01:08:36this was supposed to be our night
01:08:38oh it's your night
01:08:39oh it's your night
01:08:39just not the way you thought it'd be
01:08:42you lied to me
01:08:44i didn't lie
01:08:45i simplified the truth
01:08:47simplify
01:08:48you could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people
01:08:53you nearly killed the president of the hospital
01:08:55you passed up experimental procedures as launch ready
01:08:58that's malpractice
01:09:00they worked
01:09:01nelson's alive
01:09:02look the patients they're alive
01:09:04yeah because of me
01:09:05those methods require sequential tensioning
01:09:08breath control
01:09:09special clamp techniques
01:09:11getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death
01:09:13wait these really are your techniques
01:09:15i tested them for years
01:09:17it was never meant for mass rollout
01:09:20not without training
01:09:22you're rewriting history
01:09:24no you tried to erase him from it
01:09:26adrian marksman was the reason that veil's program had a future
01:09:30and without him
01:09:32it won't
01:09:33this is absurd
01:09:34you're siding with this disgraced former resident
01:09:38he's not disgraced son
01:09:40you are
01:09:41you hijacked a program you didn't understand
01:09:45and then when your ego wasn't enough
01:09:47you propped up this fraud
01:09:51taking his side dad
01:09:53i'm your son
01:09:55i'm taking the side of truth
01:09:57and so will the board
01:09:59we will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning
01:10:02until then both of you are suspended
01:10:04from all surgical and administrative duties
01:10:07suspended
01:10:08no no you can't do that
01:10:09you don't understand the politics of running a hospital
01:10:11we understand the liability
01:10:13that's enough
