00:00:00Patients crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:06The patient won't survive.
00:00:07Watch.
00:00:08Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a reliable trauma like this?
00:00:12This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:00:14What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:00:17Who is this guy?
00:00:18He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:00:20New management, new standards.
00:00:22Sleeping after a shift?
00:00:23You are fired.
00:00:25I just worked all night.
00:00:26Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:00:28He's the one.
00:00:28Didn't I fire you two already?
00:00:32Get your hand off my gun arm.
00:00:34We're done, Adrian.
00:00:36I need someone with a future.
00:00:38Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:00:42This isn't about money.
00:00:44Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?
00:00:49These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:00:51With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:00:53Praise God!
00:00:55Uh, are you just standing there? Do something!
00:00:57If you need help, just ask.
00:00:58All you have to do is to know what you did.
00:01:06A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:01:14The 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.
00:01:23Facials crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:01:26All the hours are full. We got three more criticals incoming.
00:01:30Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:01:32Well, I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:01:34We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:01:37Need a hand?
00:01:42A new hire. You just started this month.
00:01:46Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this?
00:02:01Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:02:02Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:02:13Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:02:16Whipple? For trauma? That's insane.
00:02:19Trust me.
00:02:20Medicine bomb scissors.
00:02:25Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:02:29That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:02:33Bovey Cottery.
00:02:36Watch.
00:02:43He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:02:45The bleeding. It's under control.
00:02:48But how did he...
00:02:51Silk suture.
00:02:57Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:03:05I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:07Almost done.
00:03:16This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:28Jesus, Adrian. What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:03:32I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:03:35That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:03:38Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:03:40What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:42Wait.
00:03:43I heard President Bale personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:03:46who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:50Is that you?
00:03:58Final suture.
00:04:00Miss Bale's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:04:07Doctor.
00:04:09The nurses...
00:04:11They said you did it.
00:04:13And you...
00:04:14You actually did.
00:04:18Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:21Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable,
00:04:24that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:04:26You...
00:04:28You saved my Catherine.
00:04:30She'll make a full recovery, President Bale.
00:04:32Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:33We need you at Vail.
00:04:35My hospital.
00:04:39Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:40Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:04:44It's gonna take hours.
00:04:46Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:04:48I'll take over from here.
00:04:50Okay.
00:04:52Good work, everyone.
00:04:53Good work, everyone.
00:04:59Yeah.
00:05:03No, no, no, no, no.
00:05:05We'll see you soon.
00:05:07You're all next.
00:05:08They're all stable.
00:05:27Every single one of them, stabilized.
00:05:34Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:05:36You must have operated all night.
00:05:39You're a machine.
00:05:40Well, that's why they paid me the big bucks.
00:05:43All right.
00:05:44It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:06:02Hey, you.
00:06:06Hey, yourself.
00:06:07I've been operating all night.
00:06:11I've seen every single patient in that pileup.
00:06:14What you did was extraordinary.
00:06:16How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:06:20Because I know you better than anyone.
00:06:29Blueberry.
00:06:31Your favorite.
00:06:32You remembered.
00:06:34Where's your dad?
00:06:35You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:06:41I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:06:46It's the third time this week.
00:06:56Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:06:58Hmm.
00:06:59So who's this marksman guy?
00:07:01His surgical skills are unreal.
00:07:03I'm not sure.
00:07:03I thought he was just another new hire.
00:07:05I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:07:09With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:07:12What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:07:22Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:07:28Who is this guy?
00:07:29Preston Vale, Preston Vale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:07:34He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:07:37who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:07:42I'm sorry.
00:07:43Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:07:48Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:07:51Sir, about that.
00:07:52Save it.
00:07:54Parker, you couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:07:59You're fired.
00:08:00Clear out your office.
00:08:02New management means new standards.
00:08:05It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:08:10Attention in everybody's attention now.
00:08:13If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:08:20No complications, no deaths.
00:08:22This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:08:27Who's he thinking he is?
00:08:28Dr. House?
00:08:29What is this?
00:08:32Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:08:35Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:08:39This is a hospital.
00:08:42We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:08:45That was for my residency direction.
00:08:47Oh, cry me a river.
00:08:50Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients,
00:08:52and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:08:56You're fired.
00:08:57Excuse me?
00:08:58Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop, just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:09:03Yes, sir.
00:09:05Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:09:07That was good.
00:09:09Let's go.
00:09:15Well, well, well.
00:09:16What do we have here?
00:09:19Sleeping after a shift?
00:09:21Rise and shine, superstar.
00:09:23Did I order a wake-up call?
00:09:30No, you didn't.
00:09:31But here's one anyway.
00:09:33You are fired.
00:09:34Are you serious?
00:09:39You're firing me?
00:09:41Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:09:44Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:09:47Fiona, what's his position here?
00:09:49He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:09:54What's he make?
00:09:56$700,000.
00:09:58That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:10:00$700?
00:10:00Are you insane?
00:10:03Are you giving resident money to a first year who sleeps on the job?
00:10:06This hospital is being scammed.
00:10:08I just worked all night.
00:10:10Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
00:10:11Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:10:15Seem lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:10:18What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:10:21Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam.
00:10:26Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:10:30My career comes first.
00:10:33Boy, bye.
00:10:34There must be some clerical error.
00:10:37These credentials.
00:10:39Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:10:42Fiona?
00:10:44Dr. Marksman.
00:10:46You are F-I-R-E-D.
00:10:50Fire.
00:10:52Clear out your office.
00:10:54Clear out your locker.
00:10:55Or get the hell out of my hospital.
00:10:58This is a mistake, okay?
00:11:00You need to check the surgical lock.
00:11:01You don't get to wear that.
00:11:02What?
00:11:02I see.
00:11:12Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:11:15You don't understand.
00:11:16He's the one who...
00:11:17Didn't I fire you two already?
00:11:19Beat it.
00:11:21Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:11:23Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:11:24I understand.
00:11:45Hospital politics.
00:11:47I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:11:51Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:11:53I'll be waiting.
00:12:02You care to explain that little exchange?
00:12:10The board won't like this.
00:12:12Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:12:14Patient care will suffer.
00:12:16Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:12:18I intend to wield it.
00:12:19Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular.
00:12:24Your little scam artist situation ship.
00:12:27No, Preston.
00:12:28He means nothing to me.
00:12:29Really.
00:12:31I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:12:32Let's be clear about your future here.
00:12:36Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:12:40Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks?
00:12:44Including yours.
00:12:44The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:12:50Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:12:55Hey, Dad.
00:13:04What's wrong?
00:13:05Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:13:07She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:13:12And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:13:15Of course.
00:13:15What is it?
00:13:16That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:13:19Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:13:22Dr. Marksman?
00:13:23Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:13:26Get out of my hospital.
00:13:28Christ.
00:13:29The resident I just fired?
00:13:32Preston?
00:13:33Are you there?
00:13:35Check the staff roster.
00:13:37See if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:13:41I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:13:45He's the surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:13:47And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:13:51The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:14:00Ah, yes.
00:14:01I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:14:04Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:14:09Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:14:13Three times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:14:15Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:14:16That's our man.
00:14:18There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:14:22Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:14:24Do me a favor.
00:14:25Fire him.
00:14:27Already done, Dad.
00:14:28I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:14:31Thank God.
00:14:32Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:14:35Good work, son.
00:14:37I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:14:40Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:14:42I got everything else under control.
00:14:51See?
00:14:52Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:14:54Now, about your career trajectory.
00:14:59Mr. Vale, sir.
00:15:00Can't you see I'm busy?
00:15:02Multiple traumas incoming.
00:15:04The six-car pileup.
00:15:05You fired half our surgery team.
00:15:06What's your point?
00:15:07ER is crashing.
00:15:09We've no one left who can handle it.
00:15:16Give me the situation.
00:15:18Now.
00:15:19Six critical traumas.
00:15:21Three more incoming.
00:15:22Multiple crush injuries.
00:15:24Arterial bleeds, sir.
00:15:25We're losing patients.
00:15:27What are our options?
00:15:29There might be one solution.
00:15:30Well, spit it out.
00:15:32Dr. Marksman.
00:15:33He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:15:36If we can get him back here.
00:15:37Marksman.
00:15:38Right.
00:15:39That's the man we need.
00:15:39Fiona, call him.
00:15:41Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:15:43The genius surgeon.
00:15:44The one I didn't fire.
00:15:45Keep up.
00:15:46Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:54Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:54Idiot left us research notes.
00:16:13Modified trauma protocol.
00:16:16Wait.
00:16:16These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:16:22Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:16:28Hello?
00:16:29Dr. Marksman.
00:16:30Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:16:32Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:16:37I'm on my way.
00:16:38Okay.
00:16:38With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:16:45They'll make me department head.
00:16:48And I can finally make seven figures.
00:16:56Well?
00:16:57Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:16:59Thank God.
00:16:59Thank God.
00:16:59Now, about your loyalty.
00:17:13Adrian meant nothing.
00:17:15I was using him to advance my career.
00:17:17You're my future.
00:17:19That's my girl.
00:17:20Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
00:17:34To hell with this.
00:17:35I'm going out.
00:17:50Piece of shit.
00:17:55Get your hand off my girl.
00:17:59Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:18:01You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:18:06You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:18:10I can choose who I want.
00:18:11And I don't want a disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:18:14You pathetic loser.
00:18:15What?
00:18:17What?
00:18:18What?
00:18:18What?
00:18:20We're done, Adrian.
00:18:33Ancient history.
00:18:35Are you serious?
00:18:37Just like that.
00:18:39Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:18:44Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:18:46Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:18:48I need someone with a future.
00:18:49You're not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:18:57Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:19:00It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:19:02Look at us, Adrian.
00:19:03I'm the future of Vail Hospital, and you?
00:19:11You're just a slacker and scrubs.
00:19:17You're washed up, marksman.
00:19:19Perhaps try nursing?
00:19:21I hear they're always hiring.
00:19:24Fiona, I met you here, and it made me want to stay.
00:19:26I thought we could build a family together.
00:19:29Get over yourself.
00:19:32You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:19:36President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:19:41We're done.
00:19:44I'm not done.
00:19:46But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:19:51You can count on that.
00:19:55No, no, no.
00:19:56Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:19:58Your troubles are just getting started.
00:20:00Who authorized you to be here?
00:20:07Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:20:10we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident,
00:20:13and the situation is completely under control.
00:20:16You're Dr. Marksman.
00:20:18Ah, yes, the very same.
00:20:20My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:20:23Harvard Medical, was it?
00:20:24These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:20:31As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:20:36Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:20:42He was sleeping while a patient almost died on the table.
00:20:46Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:20:54Dr. Hart.
00:20:58Incredible news.
00:21:00Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:21:04he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:21:07When?
00:21:08Less than an hour ago.
00:21:09Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:21:13Huh.
00:21:14Amazing.
00:21:16I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon
00:21:20was fired by his submental son.
00:21:23With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:21:28Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:21:32I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:21:34Full department autonomy.
00:21:37Research funding.
00:21:39State-of-the-art facilities.
00:21:41And if necessary,
00:21:43my personal involvement.
00:21:46His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:21:50Have my car brought round.
00:21:51And I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:21:55And Adrian Marksman?
00:21:57He's leaving with me.
00:22:04Now, feasus.
00:22:06What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:22:08Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:22:10A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:22:13The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:22:15Yet you stand there denying it.
00:22:16This is crazy.
00:22:18You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:22:21And when a complication occurs,
00:22:22which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,
00:22:27you blame me.
00:22:30The collective medical knowledge in this room
00:22:32isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:22:34If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be,
00:22:38you would still have a job.
00:22:41I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:22:44Security, please detain him.
00:22:46What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:22:54Either confess to medical malfeasance
00:22:57or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:23:01Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:23:06What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:23:08You better confess now,
00:23:10or we'll do everything in your power
00:23:11to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:23:13Come on.
00:23:16Go ahead.
00:23:17Do your worst.
00:23:19Let's see if a single piece of evidence
00:23:20holds up in front of the medical board.
00:23:24You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:23:29Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here
00:23:30can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:23:33Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:23:37After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:23:39Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:23:43Not after what he did to our patients.
00:23:46I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:23:49As of this moment,
00:23:50Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital
00:23:53and every medical institute in the country.
00:23:56Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:23:58Do you know what that means?
00:24:00It means that you will never practice medicine
00:24:02in this country again.
00:24:04I have one question before I go.
00:24:09Does your father know you fired me?
00:24:11My father's the one who asked me to fire you,
00:24:13you dipshit.
00:24:16You thought you were some brilliant surgical god,
00:24:20didn't you?
00:24:21Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:24:24Immediately.
00:24:26Yes, doctor.
00:24:27Right away, sir.
00:24:27That's quite enough.
00:24:43Let him go.
00:24:46Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position
00:24:49as chief of surgical innovation
00:24:51at Heart Medical Center.
00:24:53I know you.
00:24:57You're Vivian Hart,
00:24:58the surgical upstart
00:24:59from that medical clinic across town.
00:25:02That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you,
00:25:04Mr. Vail.
00:25:06Vivian?
00:25:07I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium
00:25:09like four or five years ago.
00:25:11What are you doing here?
00:25:12Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon
00:25:15in the country, of course.
00:25:17Wait.
00:25:18Are you seriously suggesting
00:25:20this negligent doctor has value?
00:25:21He was sleeping during rounds.
00:25:25Is this how Vail Hospital
00:25:26discards its exceptional talent?
00:25:29Your father built this institution's reputation
00:25:31of medical excellence,
00:25:33not petty politics.
00:25:36Dr. Hart,
00:25:37with all due respect...
00:25:39This is a conversation between medical directors.
00:25:41Someone in your position
00:25:42should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:25:45Dr. Hart,
00:25:46I must inform you that Dr. Marksman
00:25:48represents a serious liability.
00:25:50He compromised the patient's safety and...
00:25:53I don't believe I requested
00:25:54your medical opinion, Dr...
00:25:56Marksman.
00:25:57David Marksman.
00:25:58I have neither time nor interest
00:26:00in your assessment.
00:26:03After he decided to go to sleep,
00:26:06we had a critical surgical complication.
00:26:09His negligence led to the problem.
00:26:11His actions not only endangered patients,
00:26:13it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:26:15Are you really willing to defend someone
00:26:19who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:26:21Did you actually consult with your father
00:26:23before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:26:26Of course I consulted my father.
00:26:30He's the one who specifically mentioned
00:26:32his dangerous surgical shortcuts
00:26:33and inflated reputation.
00:26:36Dangerous shortcuts?
00:26:36Is that what President Vail really said?
00:26:40His exact words were,
00:26:42remove him at first opportunity.
00:26:44President Vail was the one that recruited me.
00:26:46This makes absolutely no sense.
00:26:47Please, Adrian.
00:26:49The president wouldn't personally recruit
00:26:51a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:26:53Those gala invitations
00:26:54were professional courtesy,
00:26:57not genuine respect.
00:26:59Well, if that's the way things work at Vail,
00:27:00I have nothing more to contribute
00:27:02to any of you.
00:27:03Dr. Marksman,
00:27:05would you consider joining
00:27:06Heart Medical Center
00:27:07as our chief of surgery?
00:27:10Well, I've...
00:27:11Full department autonomy,
00:27:13protected research time,
00:27:15a surgical fellowship in your name,
00:27:17and a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:33And cash.
00:27:52Dr. Marksman,
00:27:54I want you to revolutionize
00:27:55our surgery program.
00:27:57Hopefully this shows you.
00:28:00I mean what I say.
00:28:01Chief of surgery?
00:28:11You're offering all this to
00:28:12a surgeon who can't even
00:28:14keep his eyes open on the job?
00:28:16Dr. Heart,
00:28:17have you completely lost
00:28:18your medical judgment
00:28:19or are you on drugs?
00:28:21This is absurd.
00:28:23He was a mediocre surgeon
00:28:24here at Vail.
00:28:25And now you're positioning him
00:28:27to lead your entire
00:28:28surgical department?
00:28:29The medical board
00:28:32should review
00:28:32your hiring practices.
00:28:35Vivian,
00:28:36I appreciate your confidence.
00:28:40This isn't about money.
00:28:42Maybe there's something
00:28:43beyond professional opportunity
00:28:46that might interest you.
00:28:47She's offering herself up to him.
00:28:49She can't do that.
00:28:51Are you a doctor
00:28:52or a call girl?
00:28:53At Heart Medical Center,
00:28:55you will be given
00:28:56everything a surgeon
00:28:57of your caliber deserves,
00:28:58including a boss
00:29:01that would do
00:29:01absolutely anything
00:29:02to recognize your value.
00:29:04And I do mean anything,
00:29:06Dr. Marksman.
00:29:09Dr. Heart,
00:29:10for the sake
00:29:11of your own reputation,
00:29:13you need to know
00:29:13that this hack
00:29:14you're so eagerly pursuing
00:29:16has a documented history
00:29:17of negligence.
00:29:19My father confirmed it himself.
00:29:21Is that precisely
00:29:22what Nelson Vail told you?
00:29:24His exact words.
00:29:27Negligence, surgeon?
00:29:28What are those?
00:29:32Personal gifts
00:29:33from your father?
00:29:36My fellowship offer?
00:29:39My personal research lab?
00:29:41My surgical team?
00:29:42I'm leaving it all behind.
00:29:44I'm leaving it all behind.
00:29:44You can tell President Vail
00:29:47that as of this moment,
00:29:49Dr. Marksman
00:29:49has permanently withdrawn
00:29:51from Vail Hospital
00:29:52and all of its
00:29:54affiliated institutions.
00:29:56You know what?
00:29:56Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:29:58You never deserve
00:29:59those privileges
00:30:00in the first place.
00:30:01The medical board
00:30:02is going to see
00:30:03that justice is done.
00:30:05Oh,
00:30:05your stupidity.
00:30:08It's just
00:30:08astonishing.
00:30:10You treat pioneering surgeons
00:30:12like disposable scalpels.
00:30:14This man
00:30:15is a life-saving artist.
00:30:21Dr. Hart,
00:30:22I understand
00:30:22there's some competition
00:30:23between your center
00:30:24and Vail Hospital.
00:30:26Yeah.
00:30:26Look,
00:30:27I'll be real.
00:30:28We're struggling
00:30:29to get out
00:30:29from under their shadow.
00:30:30Look,
00:30:31I'd be happy
00:30:31to help you out with that.
00:30:33Take me on
00:30:33and I'll transform Hart
00:30:35into the number one
00:30:36surgical institution
00:30:37in the country.
00:30:37Look at yourself,
00:30:41Adrian.
00:30:41Offering your skills
00:30:42to a struggling clinic.
00:30:44How pathetically desperate.
00:30:46Oh,
00:30:47a backstabbing
00:30:49bottom feeder like you
00:30:50has absolutely
00:30:51no right
00:30:52to judge a surgeon
00:30:52of his caliber.
00:30:53How dare you
00:30:54talk to me like that!
00:30:56Your malpractice
00:30:57has caused
00:30:58catastrophic damage
00:31:00to my hospital's reputation.
00:31:01As the responsible party,
00:31:04I demand that you
00:31:05issue a formal apology
00:31:06to one of the
00:31:07major medical journals
00:31:08and with an explanation
00:31:10to every affected
00:31:11Vail Hospital patient.
00:31:14Refuse me
00:31:15and I will ensure
00:31:16that the medical board
00:31:17revokes your license
00:31:18permanently.
00:31:19That accusation
00:31:20isn't just baseness.
00:31:22It's absurd.
00:31:23What exactly do you think
00:31:24you're going to do about it?
00:31:26You've got no choice
00:31:27but to sign this confession.
00:31:28Oh,
00:31:28stop threatening
00:31:29my chief surgeon.
00:31:30If you insist
00:31:32on pursuing this vendetta,
00:31:33have your attorney
00:31:34send a formal complaint
00:31:35to Hart Medical Center.
00:31:37We'll consider it
00:31:38nothing less
00:31:38than a declaration
00:31:40of total war.
00:31:41If it's war you want,
00:31:44I will obliterate
00:31:45your dime store clinic
00:31:47with everything
00:31:47that I've got.
00:31:49Let's go.
00:31:51One more second
00:31:51and this cesspool
00:31:52is going to make me
00:31:53physically ill.
00:32:00Mr. Vail,
00:32:04don't you waste
00:32:05another precious moment
00:32:06on those second-rate
00:32:07practitioners.
00:32:09David,
00:32:09you've proven
00:32:10your loyalty.
00:32:11The chief of surgery
00:32:13position is yours
00:32:14effective immediately.
00:32:16This is,
00:32:17this is extraordinary.
00:32:18I,
00:32:18thank you.
00:32:19I,
00:32:20I,
00:32:21I am honored
00:32:23beyond words.
00:32:24Don't forget
00:32:25about me,
00:32:25Preston.
00:32:26Don't worry,
00:32:28babe.
00:32:28You will be
00:32:29thoroughly compensated
00:32:31for your loyalty.
00:32:33How exciting.
00:32:35Mr. Vail,
00:32:36I swear on my medical oath
00:32:38that I will not
00:32:39disappoint you.
00:32:41Mr. Vail,
00:32:42a commuter train derailed.
00:32:44Six critical patients
00:32:45incoming.
00:32:45Dr. Marksman,
00:32:46OR1 now.
00:32:47Now's your time to shine,
00:32:48Dr. Marksman.
00:32:49Shit,
00:32:50I'm screwed.
00:32:51Adrian's surgical journal
00:32:52with all his proprietary
00:32:53techniques is still
00:32:54in my office.
00:32:55If Preston finds out,
00:32:56I stole it and then
00:32:57couldn't even use it
00:32:58properly.
00:33:00I implemented a
00:33:02groundbreaking surgical
00:33:04protocol that I
00:33:05invented myself.
00:33:06These techniques
00:33:07are revolutionary.
00:33:08I'll walk you through it
00:33:09in detail after the
00:33:10emergency.
00:33:11It's impressive,
00:33:12Dr. Marksman.
00:33:13You've obviously got
00:33:14your own methodology.
00:33:16No need to bore me
00:33:17with the specifics.
00:33:17I trust your brilliance.
00:33:19Keep up the good work,
00:33:20Dr. Marksman.
00:33:21With you leading
00:33:21my surgical team,
00:33:23I can focus on
00:33:24what really matters.
00:33:25Hospital expansion.
00:33:28Again, sir,
00:33:29I'm deeply honored.
00:33:36Behold,
00:33:37Vail Hospital's
00:33:38new chief of surgery.
00:33:40Let's see how all
00:33:41these condescending
00:33:41clowns treat me now.
00:33:47Glad you're feeling
00:33:48better, honey.
00:33:49Well, sorry.
00:33:51Who's this?
00:33:56Nelson Vail speaking.
00:33:57President Vail,
00:33:58Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:34:00I am calling to let you
00:34:02know that as of this
00:34:03morning, Hart Medical
00:34:04Center has officially
00:34:05entered the experimental
00:34:06surgery arena.
00:34:08Revolutionary surgical
00:34:09procedures are Vail
00:34:10Hospital's domain.
00:34:12Are you absolutely
00:34:13certain you want to pick
00:34:15this fight?
00:34:16This is merely a professional
00:34:17courtesy call,
00:34:18not an invitation for debate.
00:34:20Now, just...
00:34:25Just that conniving bitch
00:34:28plotting.
00:34:29She knows Adrian
00:34:31is our surgical
00:34:32secret weapon.
00:34:33Why would she
00:34:34deliberately provoke
00:34:35a medical war
00:34:36she has absolutely
00:34:37no chance
00:34:38of winning?
00:34:44Unless...
00:34:45Dad, we've got
00:34:49multiple traumas
00:34:49coming in.
00:34:50Just tell me you
00:34:50didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:34:53Dad, relax.
00:34:55I fired the other one,
00:34:56that incompetent
00:34:57slacker resident
00:34:58that you mentioned.
00:34:59Then explain to me
00:35:00why Hart Medical
00:35:02Center believes
00:35:03they can suddenly
00:35:04challenge our
00:35:05surgical supremacy.
00:35:06Because I
00:35:08masterfully led
00:35:09Vivian Hart
00:35:10into a false
00:35:11sense of reality.
00:35:12There's no way
00:35:13a mediocre doctor
00:35:13can revolutionize
00:35:14surgical procedures.
00:35:16I convinced Vivian
00:35:17that she's acquired
00:35:18surgical brilliance.
00:35:20But in reality,
00:35:21she's hired
00:35:21our disgraced,
00:35:22discarded loser.
00:35:24So you deliberately
00:35:25manipulated Vivian?
00:35:27She thinks
00:35:27she's hired
00:35:28genius
00:35:29behind Vail Hospital's
00:35:31groundbreaking procedures.
00:35:32That's why she had
00:35:33the audacity
00:35:33to declare war on you.
00:35:34Impressive, son.
00:35:36You're finally showing
00:35:37some of the leadership
00:35:38qualities.
00:35:39I've been waiting
00:35:39to see out of you.
00:35:41I think you're ready
00:35:41to take complete control
00:35:43of our experimental
00:35:44surgical division.
00:35:47Dad, this is everything
00:35:49I've worked for.
00:35:51We'll get to work
00:35:52immediately.
00:35:53We're going to expose
00:35:54Hart Medical Center
00:35:56for the low-grade
00:35:58institution it truly is.
00:36:00Their humiliation
00:36:01will be quick
00:36:02and absolute.
00:36:03I won't let you down.
00:36:07Darling,
00:36:08surgical innovation
00:36:09is the future of Vail.
00:36:11Preston only got
00:36:12his MBA last year.
00:36:13Do you really think
00:36:14it's wise to entrust him
00:36:16with our most
00:36:16prestigious program?
00:36:18I would never take
00:36:19a risk like this
00:36:20if Preston
00:36:21was our only asset.
00:36:23Remember,
00:36:24we have the ultimate
00:36:25surgical secret weapon.
00:36:27You mean the surgeon
00:36:29that saved my life?
00:36:30Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:36:32Exactly.
00:36:33And all I need to do
00:36:35is stay hands-off
00:36:37and let him exercise
00:36:40his extraordinary talents.
00:36:43As long as Adrian
00:36:44is with Vail Hospital,
00:36:46Hart Medical Center
00:36:47has no chance
00:36:49of competing.
00:36:50Not only that,
00:36:51Vivian fell
00:36:52for Preston's manipulation
00:36:53and hired that
00:36:54medical disaster
00:36:56Dr. David Marksman,
00:36:59what we have to do now
00:37:01is sit back
00:37:02and watch her
00:37:04would-be empire
00:37:05crumble.
00:37:12So,
00:37:13now that you've seen
00:37:14the surgical department,
00:37:16what do you think?
00:37:19It's not bad.
00:37:20It's a small team,
00:37:21but they're talented.
00:37:23What you've built here,
00:37:24it's impressive, Viv.
00:37:28It's good to see you again
00:37:29after all these years,
00:37:30Adrian.
00:37:32You too.
00:37:33You need to expand.
00:37:35It's too small
00:37:36for what I'm planning.
00:37:38Also,
00:37:39I heard
00:37:41you weren't the only surgeon
00:37:42Preston Vail fired.
00:37:48We have all the angles
00:37:49figured out,
00:37:49don't you?
00:37:50And I always find
00:37:51the best one.
00:38:00I'm going to start
00:38:01recruiting.
00:38:03Good.
00:38:05The faster we rise,
00:38:08the more rewarding
00:38:09this partnership becomes.
00:38:11this better be good.
00:38:25Mr. Vail,
00:38:27you wanted to see me?
00:38:32My father
00:38:33has granted me
00:38:34complete authority
00:38:35over our experimental
00:38:36surgical department.
00:38:37given your new position
00:38:39as chief of surgery,
00:38:41I'm appointing you
00:38:42head of innovation.
00:38:43Mr. Vail,
00:38:44I, uh...
00:38:45Is there an issue
00:38:46with that?
00:38:47No, absolutely not.
00:38:49The budget for innovation
00:38:50is astronomical,
00:38:52and President Vail
00:38:53has already handed control
00:38:54to his son?
00:38:55If I oversee
00:38:56these procedures,
00:38:57I could divert
00:38:58significant resources
00:38:59to my personal research.
00:39:02Mr. Vail,
00:39:02you can trust me
00:39:03completely.
00:39:05I am precisely
00:39:06the right man
00:39:06for the job.
00:39:10Preston,
00:39:10we have a catastrophe
00:39:11on our hands.
00:39:12Two attending surgeons
00:39:12just submitted their
00:39:13resignation simultaneously.
00:39:15The department
00:39:15can't possibly
00:39:16maintain its caseload.
00:39:17What?
00:39:17They both resigned
00:39:18at once?
00:39:19What was their explanation?
00:39:20They refused
00:39:20to disclose their reasons.
00:39:22But there's talk
00:39:22they were recruited
00:39:23by a former Vail physician,
00:39:24along with the three
00:39:25other surgeons
00:39:26you fired before.
00:39:27Former physician
00:39:28Adrian Marksman,
00:39:29this has his
00:39:30saboteur signature
00:39:31all over it.
00:39:32President,
00:39:32what's our contingency plan?
00:39:34The surgical department
00:39:35is severely understaffed.
00:39:36If any more surgeons
00:39:37leave,
00:39:38patients will suffer.
00:39:39Okay, everybody
00:39:40needs to remain calm.
00:39:43You still have me.
00:39:45I can rebuild
00:39:46this department.
00:39:47Ah, yes.
00:39:48With your stellar reputation,
00:39:50we should be able
00:39:50to get the best
00:39:51of the best.
00:39:52Exactly.
00:39:53So we lost
00:39:54some second-rate talent.
00:39:56Let him go.
00:39:56I'll make some calls
00:39:59to Cedars-Sinai
00:40:00and UCLA.
00:40:03Good work, Marksman.
00:40:08This is working
00:40:09out perfectly.
00:40:10Now I can install
00:40:10my own allies
00:40:11in key positions.
00:40:13Soon, I'll control
00:40:14the entire hospital's
00:40:15medical direction.
00:40:16It's an honor to meet you,
00:40:41Dr. Hart.
00:40:41This is Dr. Parker here.
00:40:47He's a triple board
00:40:48certified surgeon.
00:40:49And soon,
00:40:50he'll be the head
00:40:51of trauma surgery.
00:40:52This is Dr. Rose,
00:40:53Chen,
00:40:54Rose,
00:40:55and Thomas.
00:40:56All consummate professionals.
00:40:58My most trusted colleagues
00:41:00back at Vail.
00:41:01With this surgical team,
00:41:06Hart Medical can revolutionize
00:41:07surgical care
00:41:08all across the country.
00:41:10Actually,
00:41:11the whole world.
00:41:12We're eager to begin,
00:41:13Dr. Hart.
00:41:14Well,
00:41:15welcome to
00:41:16Hart Medical Center.
00:41:18I am thrilled
00:41:19to have surgeons
00:41:20of your caliber
00:41:21joining us,
00:41:22but
00:41:22I do need
00:41:23to be transparent.
00:41:24We have got
00:41:26considerable ground
00:41:27to cover
00:41:27before we can
00:41:28truly challenge
00:41:29Vail Hospital's
00:41:30dominance.
00:41:30Have no fear,
00:41:31Dr. Hart.
00:41:32With Adrian leading
00:41:33our team,
00:41:34we'll be three steps
00:41:35ahead of anything
00:41:36Vail attempts.
00:41:37Yes,
00:41:37but Vail has already
00:41:39implemented Adrian's
00:41:40breakthrough surgical
00:41:41procedure protocols.
00:41:43Yeah,
00:41:43about that.
00:41:45It's a preliminary version.
00:41:46If they continue
00:41:47to develop this approach
00:41:48without modification...
00:41:49Then what?
00:41:50A lot of deaths.
00:41:52A lot of lawsuits.
00:41:53A lot of patients
00:41:54could be harmed.
00:41:55Or worse,
00:41:56these procedures
00:41:57weren't ready
00:41:57for widespread implementation
00:41:59without proper refinement.
00:42:01Those techniques
00:42:02require precise calibration
00:42:03and specialized training
00:42:05without that foundation.
00:42:07We're talking about
00:42:08serious complications.
00:42:10Preventable harm.
00:42:11Our first priority
00:42:12has to be patient safety.
00:42:14We need to perfect
00:42:15these procedures,
00:42:16and then we can find
00:42:17a way to prevent Vail
00:42:18from continuing
00:42:19with the flawed protocols.
00:42:21Exactly.
00:42:22It's not about competition
00:42:23or pride.
00:42:24It's about saving lives.
00:42:28We're using our experience
00:42:29with the tail
00:42:30to develop next generation
00:42:32surgical techniques
00:42:33eliminating all the
00:42:35previous complications
00:42:36and inefficiencies.
00:42:38Even if Vail Hospital
00:42:39analyzes our fundamental
00:42:41approach and attempts
00:42:42to create something new,
00:42:43we'll maintain
00:42:44our significant advantage.
00:42:47And if they stubbornly
00:42:48continue with their
00:42:49flawed protocols,
00:42:50rest assured,
00:42:51their outcomes
00:42:52will deteriorate.
00:42:54I don't wish it
00:42:54upon their patients,
00:42:55that's for sure.
00:42:57Remember this moment.
00:42:58In this battle
00:42:59for medical supremacy,
00:43:01Heart Medical Center
00:43:02will emerge victorious.
00:43:03It's 3 a.m.
00:43:11I lost track of time again.
00:43:20Viv, you surprised me.
00:43:23Looks like you could use
00:43:24a nice rub.
00:43:26Do you mind?
00:43:27No.
00:43:28I mean, yeah.
00:43:33What do you give
00:43:33all your surgeons
00:43:34massages?
00:43:36Only the ones
00:43:37I really, really like.
00:43:43You really, really like me?
00:43:46Adrienne,
00:43:46I've really, really liked you
00:43:47since residency.
00:43:49Nothing's changed.
00:43:51You were our most
00:43:53brilliant resident
00:43:54in the program.
00:43:55I never imagined
00:43:56someone like you
00:43:57would like me.
00:43:58There was never anyone
00:43:59else that got my attention.
00:44:01Only you.
00:44:04But you were
00:44:05completely oblivious.
00:44:07And then you just
00:44:07vanished from the program.
00:44:10Well, I left to join
00:44:11the Experimental Surgical
00:44:12Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:44:15I know.
00:44:15Your talent was
00:44:18extraordinary even then.
00:44:21Back then,
00:44:22I made a promise
00:44:23to myself that we
00:44:24would work together
00:44:24again someday.
00:44:26You know,
00:44:26when I established
00:44:27Heart Medical Center,
00:44:29my first priority
00:44:30was recruiting you.
00:44:32But that manipulative
00:44:34tyrant,
00:44:35Nelson Vale,
00:44:36had already secured
00:44:37your contracts
00:44:38with ridiculous incentives.
00:44:41I understand now.
00:44:45So,
00:44:50should we
00:44:52pick up
00:44:53where we left off
00:44:54in residency?
00:44:55You're the boss.
00:44:57That's right.
00:44:58And as your boss,
00:45:00I say,
00:45:01come home with me.
00:45:03Tonight?
00:45:04You lost everything
00:45:05when Preston fired you.
00:45:07Hospital privileges,
00:45:09research funding,
00:45:11even your hospital
00:45:13subsidized apartment.
00:45:14and you have
00:45:17literally nowhere else
00:45:18to go tonight.
00:45:20Come with me.
00:45:23Where?
00:45:25My place.
00:45:30Hmm.
00:45:34All right.
00:45:35I'll admit it.
00:45:37That was the best meal
00:45:38I've had in months.
00:45:39Careful,
00:45:40Dr. Marksman.
00:45:41I might start thinking
00:45:43you're easy to please.
00:45:44That just depends
00:45:45on the company.
00:45:46Well,
00:45:47starting tonight,
00:45:48this is your new home.
00:45:51Until the program's
00:45:52fully established,
00:45:53it just makes sense.
00:45:55Are you sure about that?
00:45:56We already work
00:45:57late hours.
00:45:59Living together
00:46:00could get complicated.
00:46:03Well,
00:46:03I like complicated.
00:46:06Keeps things interesting.
00:46:08And
00:46:08where exactly
00:46:10will I be sleeping?
00:46:11Well,
00:46:12my master suite
00:46:16has a
00:46:18California king.
00:46:22Plenty of room.
00:46:25If things ever need
00:46:26to get more
00:46:27collaborative.
00:46:30Really?
00:46:32Relax.
00:46:33I'm only teasing.
00:46:36Tonight,
00:46:36at least.
00:46:38Come on.
00:46:39I'll show you
00:46:42your room.
00:46:45Unless you'd rather
00:46:46have a nightcap.
00:46:47And mine.
00:46:55Things could get dangerous.
00:46:56Is this pathetic attempt
00:47:02really the best
00:47:03that you can do?
00:47:08You are completely
00:47:09worthless as surgeons.
00:47:11Dr. Marksman,
00:47:12the experimental procedures
00:47:14we're trying to replicate
00:47:15here are
00:47:15extraordinarily intricate.
00:47:17We need at least
00:47:18six months
00:47:19to properly master...
00:47:19six months?
00:47:22You have
00:47:2272 hours
00:47:23and I expect
00:47:24hourly updates
00:47:25on my desk.
00:47:26Sir,
00:47:26rushing these
00:47:27delicate procedures
00:47:29dramatically increases
00:47:30the possibility
00:47:31of potentially
00:47:32fatal complications.
00:47:33Three days
00:47:33and you don't get
00:47:34one hour more.
00:47:36Go.
00:47:37Go.
00:47:41Report,
00:47:42Dr. Marksman.
00:47:43What's our status?
00:47:44Excellent progress,
00:47:45Mr. Vale.
00:47:46We will be advancing
00:47:47to phase two
00:47:48implementation
00:47:49within three days.
00:47:50That's exactly
00:47:51what I wanted to hear.
00:47:52I knew my judgment
00:47:53in appointing you
00:47:54was flawless.
00:48:00Preston,
00:48:01I need an update
00:48:01on the experimental
00:48:02surgery program.
00:48:04Everything's proceeding
00:48:05perfectly, Father.
00:48:06Outstanding.
00:48:07When this is done,
00:48:08I'll throw you
00:48:09a huge party
00:48:10to celebrate the launch.
00:48:12Your father must be
00:48:13so proud of you.
00:48:14Keep up the good work,
00:48:15Dr. Marksman.
00:48:17I'll make sure
00:48:17my father understands
00:48:18your invaluable
00:48:19contribution.
00:48:21This is my shot.
00:48:22Why settle
00:48:22for chief of surgery?
00:48:24With the right maneuvering,
00:48:24I could become
00:48:25the next chief medical
00:48:26officer of Vale Hospital.
00:48:28Mr. Vale,
00:48:30my purpose
00:48:30is to execute
00:48:31the visionary
00:48:32medical strategies
00:48:34of brilliant
00:48:35administrators
00:48:36such as yourself.
00:48:37I believe that
00:48:38in the position
00:48:39of chief medical officer,
00:48:41I could implement
00:48:41your ideas
00:48:42more effectively
00:48:43throughout the entire hospital.
00:48:44If these procedures
00:48:46prove successful,
00:48:47I will personally
00:48:48discuss your advancement
00:48:48with the board.
00:48:49Truly, that's...
00:48:50I am profoundly
00:48:54grateful, sir.
00:49:00You're finally awake.
00:49:20You can keep appreciating
00:49:22the view while you eat.
00:49:23All right.
00:49:25Ooh, breakfast.
00:49:26Looks good.
00:49:30When you're finished eating,
00:49:32we'll head directly
00:49:33to the surgical wing.
00:49:34Sound good?
00:49:35Yes.
00:49:36Absolutely.
00:49:38Good.
00:49:39Get it up and running,
00:49:41and there may be
00:49:41a special bonus
00:49:44waiting for you.
00:49:44Extra special.
00:49:45Extra special.
00:49:57Okay, team.
00:49:58We're approaching
00:49:59a critical phase
00:49:59of our program development.
00:50:01We have groundbreaking
00:50:02procedures that we need
00:50:03to perfect in very little time.
00:50:05So, let's get to it.
00:50:07Let's start revolutionizing medicine.
00:50:09I have excellent news
00:50:10for all of you.
00:50:11I've just finalized
00:50:13arrangements with the board,
00:50:14and upon successful
00:50:16implementation
00:50:16of our surgical innovations,
00:50:19each of you will receive
00:50:20a fully funded
00:50:21medical mission trip
00:50:22anywhere in the world
00:50:23that you choose
00:50:24to share your expertise.
00:50:26And when the time comes
00:50:28that our procedures
00:50:29receive national certification,
00:50:31every surgeon on this team
00:50:33will be gifted
00:50:34a percentage of the royalties
00:50:35from any techniques
00:50:36we patent.
00:50:39At Heart Medical Center,
00:50:42our surgeons
00:50:42are the lifeblood.
00:50:44of our institution.
00:50:45And you will be
00:50:46compensated accordingly.
00:50:51Dr. Hart,
00:50:52we are fully committed
00:50:53to making this
00:50:54surgical program a success.
00:50:55Absolutely.
00:50:56You'll be seeing progress
00:50:57ASAP.
00:50:59Vail Hospital
00:50:59won't know what hit him.
00:51:00With Adrian leading us,
00:51:02victory is guaranteed.
00:51:03Hart is best!
00:51:04Hart is best!
00:51:06Hart is best!
00:51:07Hart is best!
00:51:08Ha ha ha!

00:53:08is the gold standard
00:53:11and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:53:14if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:53:17you're both gone
00:53:18is that clear
00:53:19yes sir
00:53:20this is the man i trusted to lead my surgical team

00:53:27oh
00:53:33mr vale
00:53:34what a what a what a surprise

00:53:37we're on schedule or not
00:53:40of course
00:53:41we're
00:53:42we're just refining the final stages
00:53:45yeah
00:53:46everything is under control
00:53:48good
00:53:49there's a problem i expect to hear it from you

00:53:52of course sir
00:53:53mr fail
00:53:57not now
00:53:58go get me the latest performance reports
00:54:00it uh
00:54:05looks like preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here
00:54:09don't worry
00:54:11when preston makes me chief medical officer
00:54:14i'm gonna need someone
00:54:15flexible in my corner
00:54:17i was back at the winning team dr marksman
00:54:20today vale hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next generation surgical program
00:54:33this cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:54:39especially as heart medical's competing program was released on the same day
00:54:44the question now is
00:54:45who will define the future of surgery
00:54:47relax mr vale
00:54:50heart medical doesn't stand a chance
00:54:52i hope you're right
00:54:55for your sake
00:54:57didn't you say that uh
00:55:01if the rollout went well
00:55:03that you'd make me
00:55:04chief medical officer
00:55:06it's not a success
00:55:07yet
00:55:08enjoy tonight's launch party
00:55:12because if our results don't outshine heart medical
00:55:15it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate
00:55:17for a long time
00:55:18dr hurt we uh have a problem
00:55:32vale hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:55:36that's soon
00:55:37they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:55:41it's a good thing we're ahead
00:55:44you're saying we're ready
00:55:48why would i lie
00:55:49we've been tracking vales every move
00:55:52let him celebrate
00:55:53it's just gonna backfire
00:55:55how exactly does that work in our favor
00:55:57babe do you remember what i told you
00:56:00when you first brought me here
00:56:02preston vale is rushing this
00:56:05he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:56:07and
00:56:08their model is flawed
00:56:09if they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach
00:56:14we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:56:17and what about when it falls apart
00:56:19then heart medical takes over as the future of modern surgery
00:56:22so you're saying that vale hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed
00:56:29it's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast
00:56:31they're using an early draft
00:56:33full of mistakes that i won't make again
00:56:36they don't even realize the cracks in their foundation
00:56:39that actually makes perfect sense
00:56:42which means
00:56:44we've already won
00:56:46well this is a big day for us
00:56:48we should celebrate

01:06:46leaving so soon dr pj's
01:06:49say hey why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life
01:06:52that procedure david used

01:07:00what kind of crack are you smoking
01:07:02he's delusional
01:07:03somebody seriously check this guy's medical license
01:07:07the notebook he used to save your father
01:07:10that's mine
01:07:11my handwriting
01:07:13my theories
01:07:14you're just pissed because he did what you couldn't
01:07:18i'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation
01:07:22and when it fails
01:07:24and it will
01:07:26you're not the ones that'll pay for it
01:07:30the patients will
01:07:31you can't prove that
01:07:32not yet
01:07:33but you can't fake medicine
01:07:36medicine and science
01:07:39always tell the truth
01:07:42our three's vitals just dropped
01:07:46we've got uncontrolled bleeding
01:07:47second patient
01:07:48today
01:07:48same issue
01:07:49vessel ligation failed mid-operation
01:07:52these techniques aren't viable
01:07:53the veil method doesn't hold under stress
01:07:56i mean come on
01:07:58tonight proves it
01:07:59we're ahead of every surgical institute in the country
01:08:02i'll be right back
01:08:11just coordinating with the team
01:08:13talk to me
01:08:17the vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again
01:08:19this is the second patient bleeding out tonight
01:08:22use the compression step
01:08:26that only works in controlled scenarios
01:08:28we told you these procedures weren't fully tested
01:08:31look just follow the notes
01:08:34i designed those techniques for 101 guidance
01:08:40not mass implementation
01:08:42without calibration
01:08:44it's unstable
01:08:45it's dangerous
01:08:47they tried to commercialize your success without you
01:08:49now people are paying for it
01:08:52all good?
01:08:55of course
01:08:56just routine coordination
01:08:58routine coordination doesn't usually include
01:09:01blood loss
01:09:02your surgical program is failing
01:09:04and patients are suffering
01:09:05you've been out of the field for months
01:09:07you wouldn't know
01:09:08yeah i would know
01:09:09because the procedures that you're butchering
01:09:12i invented
01:09:13and i'm the only one in this room
01:09:15who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing
01:09:17oh shit
01:09:19oh yes this is dr marksman
01:09:26yeah connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately
01:09:30okay listen very carefully
01:09:33your patient or three is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:09:38because the vascular bundle clamp technique
01:09:40was improperly executed
01:09:42no you need to perform a marksman modified pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial legation
01:09:48followed by a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures
01:09:55yes
01:09:57yes
01:09:59how do we even know he made a phone call
01:10:04this whole thing is performance
01:10:06charade
01:10:06you stole his methods
01:10:08this entire launch party
01:10:11is built upon stolen work and guesswork
01:10:14uh that's a lie
01:10:15then prove me wrong
01:10:16show them all a technique that i didn't create
01:10:19why would we believe anything he says
01:10:25he was fired
01:10:26humiliated
01:10:26you're right i was fired
01:10:28and the same procedures i pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary
01:10:34you know what this is pathetic
01:10:36he's just jealous
01:10:37he missed his shot
01:10:39is that what you told yourself
01:10:41when you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal
01:10:44even if that were true
01:10:46this isn't the time or the place
01:10:48i think it's exactly the time and place
01:10:52i just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator
01:11:05and thanks to adrian's guidance
01:11:08our surgeons were able to stabilize the coating patients
01:11:12adrian just cleaned up your mess
01:11:15you took this good man's techniques that weren't ready
01:11:19and you fired him
01:11:20the one person who could make them safe
01:11:24dad
01:11:26you don't see the full picture here
01:11:28oh i'm seeing it perfectly well
01:11:31this hospital was built on trust
01:11:33and integrity
01:11:34and you've disgraced them both
01:11:36your father nearly died because of your ego
01:11:40because of his lies
01:11:42you saved me
01:11:45you saved nelson
01:11:47and now
01:11:48you can save vale
01:11:50tried to warn you all
01:11:52no one listened
01:11:53well they're listening now
01:11:55you deserve to be at vale
01:11:58more than either of those two
01:12:00and probably even more than me
01:12:02it was a mistake to let you go
01:12:05months ago i was fired from vale hospital
01:12:09with procedures still in development
01:12:11they weren't ready
01:12:13they needed supervision
01:12:14precision
01:12:16development
01:12:17instead someone took my notes and tried to fast track them for glory
01:12:21oh
01:12:22you can't prove that
01:12:23security footage
01:12:26of you stealing adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:12:32already submitted to the board
01:12:35i built
01:12:37on what he started
01:12:38okay
01:12:39i i didn't steal
01:12:41i i i enhanced it
01:12:43then why were patients about to die
01:12:45you falsified rollout readiness
01:12:48he did more than that
01:12:50he put lives at risk
01:12:52to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program
01:12:56we're going to need to open a formal investigation on this
01:12:59this is absurd
01:13:01this was supposed to be our night
01:13:03oh it's your night
01:13:04it's just not the way you thought it'd be
01:13:08you lied to me
01:13:10i didn't lie
01:13:11i simplified the truth
01:13:13simplify
01:13:14you could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people
01:13:18you nearly killed the president of the hospital
01:13:21you passed up experimental procedures as launch ready
01:13:24that's malpractice
01:13:26they worked
01:13:27nelson's alive
