00:00:00A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients
00:00:07flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency department. The fate of these accident victims now rests in the
00:00:13hands of Vail's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:19Facials crashing! We need an attending surgeon now! All the hours are full. We got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:25Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding. Well, I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:30We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the EOR.
00:00:50Need a hand? A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:55Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this.
00:00:59Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:00Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:10Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:01:13Whipple? For trauma? That's insane.
00:01:16Trust me.
00:01:17I need some bomb scissors. Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:25That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:01:28Bovey Cottery. Watch.
00:01:39He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:41The bleeding? It's under control.
00:01:44But how? But how did he...
00:01:48Silk suture?
00:01:53Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:01:57I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:04Almost done.
00:02:04This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:19Jesus, Adrian. What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:28I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:02:30That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:34Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:02:36What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:39Wait. I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy who
00:02:43revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General. Is that you?
00:02:54Final suture.
00:02:56Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:00Doctor.
00:03:05The nurses, they said you did it. And you, you actually did.
00:03:14Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:17Every surgeon on the west coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live.
00:03:21But you, you saved my Catherine.
00:03:26She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:03:28Name your price, whatever it is. We need you at Vail.
00:03:31My hospital.
00:03:35Look, I'll explain later. Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:40It's going to take hours.
00:03:42Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:03:43I'll take over from here.
00:03:46Okay.
00:03:48Good work, everyone.
00:03:56Your family.
00:04:07I'm so sorry.

00:24:20exceptional talent?
00:24:22your father

00:24:24institution's
00:24:25reputation
00:24:25of medical
00:24:26excellence
00:24:27not petty
00:24:28politics
00:24:29Dr. Hart
00:24:31with all due respect
00:24:33this is a conversation
00:24:34between medical directors
00:24:35someone in your position
00:24:36should recognize
00:24:37when to maintain silence
00:24:38Dr. Hart
00:24:40I must inform you
00:24:41that Dr. Marksman
00:24:42represents a serious
00:24:43liability
00:24:44he compromised
00:24:45patient safety
00:24:46and
00:24:47I don't believe
00:24:47I requested
00:24:48your medical opinion
00:24:49Dr.
00:24:50Marksman
00:24:50David Marksman
00:24:52I have neither time
00:24:53nor interest
00:24:54in your assessment
00:24:55after he
00:24:58decided to go to sleep
00:24:59we had a critical
00:25:01surgical complication
00:25:02his negligence
00:25:03led to the problem
00:25:04his actions

00:25:12willing to defend
00:25:12someone
00:25:13who violates

00:25:15did you actually
00:25:16consult with your father
00:25:17before dismissing
00:25:18Dr. Marksman?
00:25:19of course I consulted
00:25:21my father
00:25:22he's the one
00:25:24who specifically
00:25:25mentioned his
00:25:26dangerous surgical
00:25:27shortcuts
00:25:27and inflated
00:25:28reputation
00:25:29dangerous shortcuts
00:25:30is that what
00:25:32President Vail
00:25:33really said?
00:25:34his exact words
00:25:35were
00:25:35remove him

00:25:37President Vail
00:25:38was the one

00:25:40absolutely no sense
00:25:41please Adrian
00:25:42the president
00:25:43wouldn't personally

00:27:14this is absurd he was a mediocre surgeon here at vale
00:27:18and now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department

00:27:40she's offering herself up to him she can't do that

00:27:57and i don't mean anything dr marksman
00:28:00dr hart for the sake of your own reputation

00:29:43has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber
00:29:46how dare you talk to me like that
00:29:49your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage
00:29:53to my hospital's reputation
00:29:55as the responsible party
00:29:57i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals
00:30:02and with an explanation to every affected vale hospital patient
00:30:07refuse me and i will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently
00:30:12that accusation isn't just baseless it's absurd

00:30:19you got no choice but to sign this confession
00:30:21oh stop threatening my chief surgeon
00:30:24if you insist on pursuing this vendetta

00:32:23behold vale hospital's new chief of surgery let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now
00:32:40glad you're feeling better honey thank you yeah oh sorry who's this
00:32:45nelson vale speaking president vale dr vivian hart here i am calling to let you know that as of this
00:32:56morning hart medical center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena revolutionary surgical
00:33:02procedures are vale hospital's domain are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight
00:33:09this is merely a professional courtesy call not an invitation for debate now just
00:33:20just that conniving bitch plotting she knows adrian is our surgical secret weapon why would she
00:33:27deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning unless
00:33:38not having a medical war she has been brought to the hospital or she is a doctor who is a doctor
00:33:41we've got multiple traumas coming in just tell me you didn't fire dr marksman
00:33:46dad relax i fired the other one that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned
00:33:52explain to me why heart medical center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy
00:33:59because i masterfully led vivian hard into a false sense of reality
00:34:05It's not way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:34:09I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:34:13But in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:34:17So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:34:19She thinks she's hired genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:34:25That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:34:27Impressive, son.
00:34:29You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:34:32I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:34:33I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:34:40Dad, this is everything I've worked for. Thank you.
00:34:44We'll get to work immediately.
00:34:46We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:34:53Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:34:57I won't let you down.
00:34:58Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:35:04Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:35:06Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:35:10I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:35:16Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:35:20You mean the surgeon that saved my life, Dr. Adrian Marksman?
00:35:25Exactly.
00:35:26And all I need to do is stay hands-off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:35:36As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:35:42Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:35:52What we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:35:59So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:36:11It's not bad.
00:36:13It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:36:15What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:36:21It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:36:24You too.
00:36:25We need to expand.
00:36:28It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:36:31Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:36:40We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:36:43And I always find the best one.
00:36:53I'm gonna start recruiting.
00:36:55Good.
00:36:58The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:37:16This better be good.
00:37:18Mr. Vail?
00:37:20You wanted to see me?
00:37:21My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:37:30Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:37:36Mr. Vail, I, uh...
00:37:37Is there an issue with that?
00:37:39No, absolutely not.
00:37:41The budget for innovation is astronomical, and President Vail has already handed control to his son?
00:37:47If I oversee these procedures, I could divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:37:54Mr. Vail, you can trust me completely.
00:37:57I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:37:59Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:38:04Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously.
00:38:07The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.
00:38:09What?
00:38:10They both resigned at once?
00:38:11What was their explanation?
00:38:12They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:38:14But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vail physician, along with the three other surgeons you fired before.
00:38:19Former physician Adrian Marksman, this has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:38:24Preston, what's our contingency plan?
00:38:26The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:38:29If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.
00:38:31Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.
00:38:35You still have me.
00:38:37I can rebuild this department.
00:38:39Ah, yes.
00:38:41With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:38:44Exactly.
00:38:46So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:38:48Let him go.
00:38:50I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai and UCLA.
00:38:56Good work, Marksman.
00:39:00This is working out perfectly.
00:39:02Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:39:05Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:39:09It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Hart.
00:39:34This is Dr. Parker here.
00:39:39He's a triple board certified surgeon.
00:39:42And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:39:44This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:39:49All consummate professionals.
00:39:51My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.
00:39:53With this surgical team, Hart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.
00:40:03Actually, the whole world.
00:40:05We're eager to begin, Dr. Hart.
00:40:07Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:40:09I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.
00:40:17We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.
00:40:23Have no fear, Dr. Hart.
00:40:24With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.
00:40:29Yes, but Vail has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:40:35Yeah, about that.
00:40:37It's a preliminary version.
00:40:39If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:40:41Then what?
00:40:42A lot of deaths.
00:40:44A lot of lawsuits.
00:40:46A lot of patients could be harmed.
00:40:47Or worse, these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.
00:40:52Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training without that foundation.
00:40:59We're talking about serious complications.
00:41:02Preventable harm.
00:41:03Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:41:06We need to perfect these procedures.
00:41:08And then we can find a way to prevent Vail from continuing with the flawed protocols.
00:41:13Exactly.
00:41:14It's not about competition or pride.
00:41:16It's about saving lives.
00:41:17We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Vail to develop next-generation surgical techniques,
00:41:27eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies.
00:41:31Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new,
00:41:37we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:41:39And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols, rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:41:47I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:41:50Remember this moment.
00:41:52In this battle for medical supremacy, Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:42:04It's 3 a.m.
00:42:06Lost track of time again.
00:42:07Yeah.
00:42:09Viv, you surprised me.
00:42:16Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:42:19Do you mind?
00:42:21No.
00:42:23I mean, yeah.
00:42:26Will you give all your surgeons massages?
00:42:29Only the ones I really, really like.
00:42:37You really, really like me?
00:42:39Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:42:43Nothing's changed.
00:42:45You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:42:48I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:42:51There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:42:54Only you.
00:42:57But you were completely oblivious.
00:42:59And then you just vanished from the program.
00:43:03Well, I left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in Switzerland.
00:43:07I know.
00:43:07I know.
00:43:11Your talent was extraordinary even then.
00:43:14Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:43:18You know, when I established Heart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:43:25But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Vale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:43:33So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:43:47You're the boss.
00:43:48You're the boss.
00:43:49That's right.
00:43:51And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:43:56Tonight?
00:43:57You lost everything when Preston fired you.
00:44:00Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital subsidized apartment.
00:44:07You have literally nowhere else to go tonight.
00:44:13Come with me.
00:44:16Where?
00:44:18My place.
00:44:27All right.
00:44:28I'll admit it.
00:44:30That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:44:32Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:44:34I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:44:37That just depends on the company.
00:44:40Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:44:44Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:44:48Are you sure about that?
00:44:49We already work late hours.
00:44:52Living together could get complicated.
00:44:56Well, I like complicated.
00:44:58Keeps things interesting.
00:45:01And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:45:04Well,
00:45:07My master suite has a California king.
00:45:15Plenty of room.
00:45:17If things ever need to get more collaborative.
00:45:21I'll show you your room.
00:45:23Really?
00:45:25Relax.
00:45:26I'm only teasing.
00:45:29Tonight, at least.
00:45:31Come on.
00:45:34I'll show you your room.
00:45:35Unless you'd rather have a nightcap.
00:45:40And mine.
00:45:47Things could get dangerous.
00:45:49Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:45:56You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:46:03Dr. Marksman.
00:46:05The experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:46:09We need at least six months to properly master.
00:46:13Six months?
00:46:14You have 72 hours.
00:46:16And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:46:19Sir, brushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications.
00:46:25Three days.
00:46:26And you don't get one hour more.
00:46:29Go.
00:46:29Go.
00:46:34Report, Dr. Marksman.
00:46:36What's our status?
00:46:37Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.
00:46:38We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:46:43That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:46:45I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.
00:46:53Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:46:57Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:46:59Outstanding.
00:47:00When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:47:04Your father must be so proud of you.
00:47:07Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:47:09I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:47:13This is my shot.
00:47:14Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:47:16With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.
00:47:21Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators such as yourself.
00:47:29I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more effectively throughout the entire hospital.
00:47:37If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.
00:47:42Truly, that's...
00:47:43I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:48:00You're finally awake.
00:48:07You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.
00:48:15All right.
00:48:16Ooh, breakfast.
00:48:18Looks good.
00:48:23When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.
00:48:26Sound good?
00:48:26Yes.
00:48:27Absolutely.
00:48:28Good.
00:48:30Get it up and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.
00:48:39Extra special.
00:48:49Okay, team.
00:48:50We're approaching a critical phase of our program development.
00:48:53We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time, so let's get to it.
00:48:59Start revolutionizing medicine.
00:49:01I have excellent news for all of you.
00:49:03I've just finalized arrangements with the board, and upon successful implementation of our surgical
00:49:09innovations, each of you will receive a fully funded medical mission trip anywhere in the world that
00:49:15you choose to share your expertise.
00:49:17And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification,
00:49:23every surgeon on this team will be gifted a percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.
00:49:31At Heart Medical Center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution, and you will be compensated accordingly.
00:49:42Dr. Heart, we are fully committed to making this surgical program a success.
00:49:46Absolutely. You'll be seeing progress ASAP.
00:49:50Vail Hospital won't know what hit him. With Adrian leading us, victory is guaranteed.
00:49:54Heart is best. Heart is best. Heart is best. Heart is best.
00:50:00Heart is best.
00:50:05Heart is best.
00:50:15Heart is best.
00:50:28you always this disciplined
00:50:33or are you just trying to impress me
00:50:36if I was trying to impress you you even know
00:50:40midnight meetings
00:50:42long hours
00:50:45this work ethic of yours
00:50:48it's a little dangerous
00:50:50that's what Belle used to say about me
00:50:55then they fired me
00:50:58and they were fools
00:51:01you've earned more than just respect here Adrian
00:51:06you know that right
00:51:09you trying to motivate me again
00:51:15I don't try
00:51:17I do
00:51:21well
00:51:24don't work too late
00:51:26you're no good to me burnt out
00:51:31the incompetence is staggering
00:51:43yeah you too are in way over your heads
00:51:46do you really think that this is acceptable
00:51:51I give you one simple task and you screw it up
00:51:54how the hell did either of you even finish residency
00:51:58Vail General Hospital is the gold standard
00:52:02and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:52:05if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:52:08you're both gone
00:52:09is that clear
00:52:10yes sir
00:52:12this is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team
00:52:16go
00:52:22Mr. Vail what a surprise
00:52:28cut the bullshit marksman
00:52:29we're on schedule or not
00:52:32of course
00:52:33we're
00:52:34we're just refining the final stages
00:52:37yeah
00:52:38everything is under control
00:52:40good
00:52:41there's a problem I expect to hear it from you
00:52:43with no cover-ups
00:52:44of course sir
00:52:45Mr. Vail
00:52:49not now
00:52:49go get me the latest performance reports
00:52:52it uh
00:52:56looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:52:59on our lovely administrator here
00:53:01don't worry
00:53:02when Preston makes me chief medical officer
00:53:05I'm gonna need someone
00:53:07flexible in my corner
00:53:09I respect the winning team Dr. Marksman
00:53:12today Vail hospital officially launched
00:53:21its highly anticipated
00:53:22next generation surgical program
00:53:25this cutting-edge approach to surgical care
00:53:27is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:53:30especially as heart medical's competing program
00:53:33was released on the same day
00:53:35the question now is
00:53:37who will define the future of surgery
00:53:39relax Mr. Vail
00:53:41heart medical doesn't stand a chance
00:53:44I hope you're right
00:53:46for your sake
00:53:49didn't you say that uh
00:53:53if the rollout went well
00:53:54that you'd make me
00:53:55chief medical officer
00:53:57it's not a success
00:53:59yet
00:54:00enjoy tonight's launch party
00:54:03because if our results don't outshine heart medical
00:54:06it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate
00:54:08for a long time
00:54:09Dr. Hurt we uh have a problem
00:54:23Vail hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:54:27that soon?
00:54:29they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:54:32it's a good thing we're ahead of
00:54:36you're saying we're ready?
00:54:40why would I lie?
00:54:41we've been tracking Vail's every move
00:54:43let him celebrate
00:54:45it's just gonna backfire
00:54:46how exactly does that work in our favor?
00:54:49Bibb do you remember what I told you
00:54:52when you first brought me here?
00:54:55Preston Vail's rushing this
00:54:57he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:54:58and?
00:54:59their model's flawed
00:55:00if they keep moving forward
00:55:03without realizing their structural failure
00:55:04and their approach
00:55:05we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:55:08and what about when it falls apart?
00:55:10then heart medical takes over
00:55:12as the future of modern surgery
00:55:13so you're saying that Vail hospital
00:55:17has been refining the prototype surgical method
00:55:19that you designed?
00:55:20it's the only way they could have gotten this far
00:55:22this fast
00:55:23they're using an early draft
00:55:25full of mistakes
00:55:26that I won't make again
00:55:27they don't even realize
00:55:29the cracks in their foundation
00:55:30that actually
00:55:32makes perfect sense
00:55:34which means
00:55:36we've already won
00:55:37well this is a big day for us
00:55:39we should celebrate
00:55:41what do you have in mind?

01:06:21you can't prove that
01:06:22not yet
01:06:23but you can't fake medicine
01:06:26medicine and science
01:06:29always
01:06:30tell
01:06:31the truth
01:06:32our three's vitals

01:06:37second patient today
01:06:38same issue
01:06:39vessel ligation
01:06:40failed
01:06:40mid-operation
01:06:41these techniques
01:06:42aren't viable
01:06:43the veil method

01:06:45under stress
01:06:45I mean come on
01:06:48tonight proves it

01:07:10bleeding out tonight
01:07:11use the compression step
01:07:15that only works
01:07:17in control scenarios
01:07:18we told you
01:07:19these procedures
01:07:20weren't fully tested
01:07:21look just follow the notes
01:07:23I designed those techniques
01:07:29for 101 guidance
01:07:30not mass implementation
01:07:31without calibration
01:07:33it's unstable
01:07:35it's dangerous
01:07:36they tried to commercialize
01:07:38your success without you
01:07:39now people are paying for it
01:07:41all good
01:07:44of course
01:07:45just routine coordination
01:07:47routine coordination
01:07:49doesn't usually include
01:07:50blood loss
01:07:51your surgical program
01:07:53is failing
01:07:53and patients are suffering
01:07:54you've been out of the field
01:07:56for months
01:07:57you wouldn't know
01:07:58yeah I would know
01:07:59because the procedures
01:08:00that you're butchering
01:08:01I invented
01:08:02and I'm the only one
01:08:04in this room
01:08:04who can fix the mess
01:08:05that you made
01:08:06in your surgical wing

01:08:24in OR3
01:08:24is experiencing
01:08:25a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:08:27because the vascular
01:08:28bundle clamp technique
01:08:30was improperly executed
01:08:31no
01:08:32you need to perform
01:08:33a Marksman modified
01:08:34Pringle maneuver
01:08:35with selective hepatic
01:08:36arterial ligation
01:08:38followed by a rapid
01:08:39sequence vascular
01:08:40anatomosis
01:08:41using interrupted
01:08:426-0
01:08:43proline sutures
01:08:45yes
01:08:46yes
01:08:49how do we even know
01:08:52he made a phone call
01:08:53his whole thing
01:08:55is performance
01:08:55a charade
01:08:56you stole his methods
01:08:58this entire
01:08:59launch party
01:09:00is built upon
01:09:02stolen work
01:09:02and guesswork
01:09:03uh
01:09:04that's a lie
01:09:05then prove me wrong
01:09:06show them all
01:09:07a technique
01:09:08that I didn't create
01:09:09why would we believe
01:09:13anything he says
01:09:14he was fired
01:09:15humiliated
01:09:16you're right
01:09:17I was fired
01:09:17and the same procedures
01:09:19I pioneered
01:09:20were renamed
01:09:21and sold back
01:09:21to the board
01:09:22as revolutionary
01:09:23you know what
01:09:24this is pathetic
01:09:25he's just jealous
01:09:27he missed his shot
01:09:28is that what
01:09:29you told yourself
01:09:30when you snuck
01:09:31back into my office
01:09:32and stole my
01:09:33surgical journal
01:09:33even if that were true
01:09:35this isn't the time
01:09:37or the place
01:09:38I think it's exactly
01:09:40the time and place
01:09:41I just got off the phone
01:09:53with our surgical coordinator
01:09:55and thanks to Adrian's guidance
01:09:57our surgeons were able to stabilize
01:10:00the coding patients
01:10:01Adrian just cleaned up
01:10:04your mess
01:10:05you took this good man's techniques
01:10:07that weren't ready
01:10:08and you fired him
01:10:10the one person
01:10:12who could make them safe
01:10:13dad
01:10:15you don't see the full picture here
01:10:18oh I'm seeing it perfectly well
01:10:20this hospital was built on trust
01:10:22and integrity
01:10:23and you've disgraced them both
01:10:26your father nearly died
01:10:28because of your ego
01:10:29because of his lies
01:10:32you saved me
01:10:34you saved Nelson
01:10:36and now
01:10:38you can save Vale
01:10:39I tried to warn you all
01:10:41no one listened
01:10:43they're listening now
01:10:44you deserve to be
01:10:46at Vale
01:10:47more than either
01:10:49of those two
01:10:49and probably even more
01:10:51than me
01:10:52it was a mistake
01:10:53to let you go
01:10:54months ago
01:10:56I was fired from Vale hospital
01:10:58with procedures
01:10:59still in development
01:11:00they weren't ready
01:11:02they needed supervision
01:11:03precision
01:11:05development
01:11:07instead someone took my notes
01:11:08and tried to fast track them
01:11:10for glory
01:11:11oh
01:11:11you can't prove that
01:11:13security footage
01:11:15of you stealing
01:11:19Adrian's notebook
01:11:20from the hospital
01:11:21already submitted
01:11:23to the board
01:11:24I built
01:11:26on what he started
01:11:27okay
01:11:28I didn't steal
01:11:30I enhanced it
01:11:32then why were patients
01:11:33about to die
01:11:34you falsified
01:11:37rollout readiness
01:11:37he did more than that
01:11:39he put lives at risk
01:11:41to prove that
01:11:42he was smarter
01:11:43than the guy
01:11:44that actually created
01:11:45the program
01:11:45we're going to need
01:11:46to open a formal
01:11:47investigation on this
01:11:48this is absurd
01:11:50this was supposed
01:11:51to be our night
01:11:52oh it's your night
01:11:53just not the way
01:11:56you thought it'd be
01:11:57you lied to me
01:11:59I didn't lie
01:12:00I simplified the truth
01:12:01simplify
01:12:03you could have caused
01:12:04serious harm
01:12:05to countless
01:12:06innocent people
01:12:07you nearly killed
01:12:09the president
01:12:09of the hospital
01:12:10you passed up
01:12:11experimental procedures
01:12:12as launch ready
01:12:13that's malpractice
01:12:15they worked
01:12:16Nelson's alive
01:12:18look the patients
01:12:19they're alive
01:12:20yeah because of me
01:12:21those methods require
01:12:22sequential tensioning
01:12:24breath control
01:12:25special clamp techniques
01:12:26getting one beat wrong
01:12:27is the difference
01:12:28between life and death
01:12:29wait
01:12:30these really are
01:12:30your techniques

01:12:33it was never meant
01:12:35for mass rollout
01:12:36not without training
01:12:38you're rewriting history
01:12:40no you tried to
01:12:42erase him from it
01:12:43Adrian Marksman
01:12:44was the reason
01:12:45that Vale's program
01:12:46had a future
01:12:47and without him
01:12:49it won't
01:12:50this is absurd

01:16:46Hey, not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon. I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:16:58Now?
01:16:59Well, there's no time like the present.
01:17:08This is what victory tastes like.
01:17:11It's not bad. I need a second opinion.
01:17:17Well, I've got all night, and you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:17:24Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:17:27You're already exceeding expectations, but I am very thorough.
01:17:38Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:17:44Besides being you, of course.
