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.
00:03:56Good work, everyone.

00:20:12when he discovers
00:20:13that his Price Surgeon

00:20:16by his submental son
00:20:17with our respect
00:20:19we're still

00:20:21would someone
00:20:23of Marksman's caliber

00:21:10this is crazy
00:21:11you've all passed me off

00:21:16occurs
00:21:16which happened
00:21:17in this hospital
00:21:18under your incompetent
00:21:19leadership

00:21:25medical knowledge

00:27:40she's offering herself up to him she can't do that
00:27:44are you a doctor or a call girl at heart medical center

00:29:46how dare you talk to me like that
00:29:48your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation
00:29:55as the responsible party i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals
00:30:01and with an explanation to every affected vale hospital patient
00:30:06refuse me
00:30:08and i will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently
00:30:12that accusation isn't just baseless

00:30:21oh stop threatening my chief surgeon
00:30:23if you insist on pursuing this vendetta

00:32:41thank you
00:32:42yeah
00:32:42oh
00:32:43sorry
00:32:44who's this
00:32:45nelson vail speaking
00:32:50president vail
00:32:51dr vivian hart here
00:32:53i am calling to let you know that as of this morning
00:32:56hart medical center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena
00:33:00revolutionary surgical procedures are vail hospital's domain
00:33:05are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight
00:33:08this is merely a professional courtesy call
00:33:11not an invitation for debate
00:33:13now just
00:33:14just that conniving bitch plotting
00:33:22she knows adrian
00:33:24is our surgical secret weapon
00:33:26why would she deliberately provoke a medical war
00:33:29she has absolutely no chance of winning
00:33:31unless
00:33:34dad we've got multiple traumas coming in
00:33:43just tell me you didn't fire dr marksman
00:33:45dad relax
00:33:47fired the other one
00:33:49that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned
00:33:52then explain to me
00:33:53why hart medical center
00:33:55believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy
00:33:58because i
00:34:01masterfully led vivian hart into a false sense of reality
00:34:04it's not way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures
00:34:08i convinced vivian
00:34:10that she's acquired surgical brilliance
00:34:12but in reality
00:34:13she's hired our disgrace discarded loser
00:34:16so you deliberately manipulated vivian
00:34:19she thinks she's hired genius
00:34:22behind vail hospital's groundbreaking procedures
00:34:24that's why she had the audacity to declare war on you
00:34:27impressive son
00:34:28you're finally showing some of the leadership qualities
00:34:31i've been waiting to see out of you
00:34:33i think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division
00:34:38dad this
00:34:41this is everything i've worked for thank you
00:34:44we'll get to work immediately
00:34:45we're going to expose heart medical center
00:34:49for the low-grade institution it truly is
00:34:53their humiliation will be quick and absolute
00:34:56i won't let you down
00:34:58darling
00:35:00surgical innovation is the future of veil
00:35:03preston only got his mba last year do 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 remember we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon
00:35:20you mean the surgeon that saved my life dr adrian mark smith and all i need to do is stay hands off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents as long as adrian is with veil hospital heart medical center has no chance of competing not only that vivian fell for preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster dr david's
00:35:33dr david marksman what we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire
00:36:03so now that you've seen the surgical department
00:36:06so now that you've seen the surgical department
00:36:08what do you think
00:36:11it's not bad
00:36:12it's a small team but they're talented
00:36:14what you've built here
00:36:16it's impressive
00:36:18it's good to see you again after all these years adrian
00:36:23you too
00:36:25we need to expand
00:36:27it's too small for what i'm planning
00:36:30also
00:36:31i heard you weren't the only surgeon preston vale fired
00:36:36we have all the angles figured out don't you and i always find the best one
00:36:44i'm gonna start recruiting
00:36:54good
00:36:57the faster we rise
00:37:00the more rewarding this partnership becomes
00:37:03this better be good
00:37:17mr vale
00:37:18you 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
00:37:32i'm appointing you head of innovation
00:37:35mr vale i uh
00:37:37is there an issue with that
00:37:39no absolutely not
00:37:41the budget for innovation is astronomical
00:37:43and president vale has already handed control to his son
00:37:47if i oversee these procedures i could divert significant resources to my personal research
00:37:53mr vale
00:37:55you can trust me completely
00:37:56i 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
00:38:09they both resigned at once what was their explanation
00:38:12they refused to disclose their reasons
00:38:14but there's talk they were recruited by a former veil physician
00:38:16along with the three other surgeons you fired before
00:38:19former physician adrian marksman this has his saboteur signature all over it
00:38:24president what's our contingency plan
00:38:27the surgical department is severely understaffed
00:38:29if any more surgeons leave patients will suffer
00:38:31okay everybody needs to remain calm
00:38:34you still have me
00:38:37i can rebuild this department
00:38:39ah yes
00:38:40with your stellar reputation we should be able to get the best of the best
00:38:44exactly
00:38:45so we lost some second-rate talent
00:38:48let him go
00:38:49i'll make some calls to cedar sinai
00:38:53and ucla
00:38:54good work marksman

00:40:04we're eager to begin dr hart
00:40:06well
00:40:07welcome to heart medical center
00:40:09i am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us
00:40:14but
00:40:14i do need to be transparent
00:40:17we have got considerable ground to cover
00:40:19before we can truly challenge veil hospital's dominance
00:40:22have no fear dr hart
00:40:24with hadrian leading our team
00:40:26we'll be three steps ahead of anything veil attempts
00:40:29yes but veil has already implemented adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols
00:40:35yeah about that
00:40:36it's a preliminary version
00:40:38if they continue to develop this approach without modification
00:40:41then what
00:40:42a lot of deaths
00:40:43a lot of lawsuits
00:40:45a lot of patients could be harmed
00:40:47or worse
00:40:48these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement
00:40:52those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training
00:40:57without that foundation
00:40:59we're talking about serious complications
00:41:01preventable harm
00:41:03our first priority has to be patient safety
00:41:05we need to perfect these procedures
00:41:08and then we can find a way to prevent veil from continuing with the flawed protocols
00:41:13exactly it's not about competition or pride
00:41:15it's about saving lives
00:41:17we're using our experience with the trial procedures i did at veil to develop next generation surgical techniques
00:41:27eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies
00:41:30even if veil hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new
00:41:36we'll maintain our significant advantage
00:41:39and if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols
00:41:43rest assured
00:41:44their outcomes will deteriorate
00:41:47i don't wish it upon their patients that's for sure
00:41:49remember this moment
00:41:51in this battle for medical supremacy
00:41:54heart medical center will emerge victorious
00:41:57it's 3 a.m
00:42:05lost track of time again
00:42:08viv you surprised me
00:42:17looks like you could use a nice rub

00:42:39adrian i've really really liked you since residency
00:42:43nothing's changed
00:42:45you are most brilliant resident in the program
00:42:48i never imagined someone like you would like me
00:42:50there was never anyone else that got my attention
00:42:52only you
00:42:57but you were completely oblivious and then you just vanished from the program
00:43:03well i left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in switzerland
00:43:06i 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
00:43:19you know when i established heart medical center
00:43:22my first priority was recruiting you
00:43:25but that manipulative tyrant nelson vale had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives
00:43:33i understand now
00:43:36so
00:43:43should we
00:43:45pick up where we left off in residency
00:43:48you're the boss
00:43:49that's right

00:45:56you are completely worthless as surgeons
00:46:03dr marksman
00:46:04dr marksman
00:46:04the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate
00:46:09we need at least six months to properly master
00:46:12six months
00:46:14you have 72 hours
00:46:16and i expect hourly updates on my desk
00:46:19sir
00:46:19brushing these delicate procedures
00:46:21dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications
00:46:25three days
00:46:26then you don't get one hour more
00:46:28go
00:46:29go

00:50:28You always this disciplined?
00:50:34Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:50:37If I was trying to impress you, you even know.
00:50:41Midnight meetings.
00:50:43Long hours.
00:50:46This work ethic of yours.
00:50:49It's a little dangerous.
00:50:53That's what Belle used to say about me.
00:50:56Then they fired me.
00:50:58And they were fools.
00:51:04You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.
00:51:07You know that, right?
00:51:13You trying to motivate me again?
00:51:16I don't try.
00:51:20I do.
00:51:24Well, don't work too late.
00:51:28You're no good to me, Burnt Out.
00:51:39The incompetence is staggering.
00:51:44Yeah, you two are in way over your heads.
00:51:49Do 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?
00:51:59Vail General Hospital is the gold standard, and you two are just standing around like clueless
00:52:04little interns.
00:52:06If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow, you're both gone.
00:52:10Is that clear?
00:52:10Yes, sir.
00:52:11Yes, sir.
00:52:12This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:52:18Go.
00:52:24Oh, Mr. Vail.
00:52:26What a surprise.
00:52:28Cut the bullshit, Marksman.
00:52:30We're on schedule or not.
00:52:32Of course.
00:52:34We're just refining the final stages.
00:52:38Yeah, everything is under control.
00:52:40Good.
00:52:41There's a problem.
00:52:42I expect to hear it from you.
00:52:43No cover-ups.
00:52:44Of course, sir.
00:52:48Mr. Vail.
00:52:49Not now.
00:52:50Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:52:52It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here.
00:53:02Don't worry.
00:53:03When Preston makes me chief medical officer, I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:53:09I respect the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:53:11Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:53:25This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:53:31especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.
00:53:35The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:53:40Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:53:42Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:53:45I hope you're right.
00:53:47For your sake.
00:53:51Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:53:57It's not a success.
00:53:59Yet.
00:54:02Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:54:04Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical, it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.
00:54:09Dr. Hurt, we, uh, have a problem.
00:54:25Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.
00:54:28That 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.
00:54:44Let him celebrate.
00:54:45It's just gonna backfire.
00:54:47How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:54:49Bib, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:54:55Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:54:57He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:54:59And?
00:54:59Their model's flawed.
00:55:00If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach,
00:55:06we won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:55:09And what about when it falls apart?
00:55:10Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.
00:55:15So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:55:20It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:55:23They're using an early draft full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:55:27They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.
00:55:31That actually makes perfect sense.
00:55:35Which means we've already won.
00:55:38Well, this is a big day for us.
00:55:40We should celebrate.
00:55:41What do you have in mind?
00:55:42Drinks?
00:55:43Not quite.
00:55:44You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:55:48What?
00:55:49Why?
00:55:50Let me worry about that.
00:55:52In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout.
00:55:54Finish whatever procedures you need to.
00:55:57And meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. sharp.
00:56:14Preston, we've been through so much together.
00:56:17I know where I'm headed in life and I know who I want by my side.
00:56:21Tonight, at this launch party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:56:28it's like the perfect moment to ask,
00:56:31will you marry me?
00:56:37This should be fun.
00:56:41Absolutely.
00:56:42You really know how to take care of your staff, Mr. Vail?
00:56:46Stop it.
00:56:47Too bad you're taken.
00:56:48Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:56:50Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:56:52Told her meet me out here so we can go to this party together.
00:56:55Forget about her.
00:56:56She's just social climbing trash anyways.
00:56:59We'll show you a better time.
00:57:03Now that's an offer I can't refuse.
00:57:05Let's go.
00:57:06Fiona who?
00:57:06Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:57:12Let me do it.
00:57:13The number you have dialed is unavailable.
00:57:36Please, try again later.
00:57:38It's 20 in one day.
00:58:04All clean, all stable.
00:58:06The experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:58:09You did it.
00:58:11No.
00:58:12We didn't.
00:58:16Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vail's launch party pronto.
00:58:19You're already late.
00:58:20I need a change there.
00:58:21You don't have time.
00:58:22Where's Vivian?
00:58:25Taking care of something.
00:58:27She said it's really important that you be there,
00:58:28and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:58:30Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vail Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:58:36What the fuck?
00:58:53You're my date, and you're wasted.
00:58:55I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:58:58Yeah.
00:58:58God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:59:00So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up, for God's sakes.
00:59:04Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
00:59:26It's giving orderly sheep.
00:59:29Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:59:35What are you doing at our launch party?
00:59:37You weren't invited.
00:59:38You so sure about that?
00:59:39I mean, look at you.
00:59:40This is a black tie?
00:59:42I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
00:59:46Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter.
00:59:49The found surgeon.
00:59:51The fraud.
00:59:53The nobody.
00:59:55Show up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:59:57I thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the lowlives.
01:00:01Guess I need to fire them, too.
01:00:03Pardon me.
01:00:03I just came straight from surgery.
01:00:05Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:00:08What are you trying to say?
01:00:09I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:00:18I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:00:22Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:00:25The genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:00:29You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:00:31Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:00:33When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:00:40What are you talking about?
01:00:43Identity theft?
01:00:45Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:00:47Yours?
01:00:48Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:00:50If you don't got it, at least act like you do.
01:00:54Speaking from experience.
01:00:57Look around you.
01:00:59This is the elite among the elite.
01:01:02The best of the best in the medical field.
01:01:04Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:01:09Good.
01:01:09I'm glad.
01:01:10Because you're all beneath me.
01:01:13Isn't that right?
01:01:13Dr. Marksman.
01:01:15That's enough.
01:01:16Guards!
01:01:18This former employee is threatening us.
01:01:21Kick him out.
01:01:23Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:01:26I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:01:30What are you dumbasses doing?
01:01:32Grab him!
01:01:32Presti!
01:01:48What the hell is this?
01:01:50Dad.
01:01:52Relax.
01:01:52I, uh...
01:01:53Relax?
01:01:55This twat came in uninvited.
01:01:56I was just kicking him out.
01:01:57Guards!
01:01:58Remove him immediately.
01:01:59President Vale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:02:02You get out of my way.
01:02:04Dad, what are you doing?
01:02:05This is, this is, this is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:02:09You are such a fool!
01:02:13Dad.
01:02:14What are you, what are you doing?
01:02:16Open your eyes, Preston.
01:02:18This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:02:22Uh, you are a...
01:02:24Disgraced!
01:02:26Dad!
01:02:28My hospital meant something and you turned it into a...
01:02:32I turned it into a...
01:02:33You...
01:02:34Oh!
01:02:35God!
01:02:35Dad!
01:02:36Ah!
01:02:40Dad!
01:02:41Oh!
01:02:42President Vale.
01:02:44Fuck away from my dad!
01:02:46Are you out of your mind?
01:02:47He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:02:49Oh yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:02:51I'll die before I trust you two.
01:02:53Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:02:55David!
01:02:56David!
01:02:56It's cold!
01:02:57It's cold!
01:03:02Can't think of what to do next?
01:03:05Blanking?
01:03:05Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:03:07Shut up!
01:03:08Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:03:11This is ridiculous.
01:03:12I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:03:15Why are you just standing there?
01:03:16Do something!
01:03:17Uh...
01:03:17What's the matter, David?
01:03:20If you need help, just ask.
01:03:23All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:03:25Right here.
01:03:26Right now.
01:03:28I can't blow my cover, but...
01:03:30What if I kill him?
01:03:32I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:03:34I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:03:37I did medical school on Zoom.
01:03:38David, this is a matter of life and death.
01:03:43Let it go!
01:03:46I...
01:03:46I...
01:03:48I can't.
01:03:50I can't do this.
01:03:53Okay, I can't.
01:03:55I can't do this.
01:03:56I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:03That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:05He stole it from me.
01:04:08Okay, okay.
01:04:15I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:04:20Okay.
01:04:22I gotta, I gotta...
01:04:23Here, take it, take it.
01:04:26Okay.
01:04:27All right, hold his head.
01:04:29But tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:04:33Okay.
01:04:38Okay.
01:04:44Okay.
01:04:46Okay.
01:04:47Ready.
01:04:49Fall.
01:04:50Fall.
01:04:50Oh, my God.
01:04:55How are you?
01:04:56Let it out.
01:04:58All right, thank you.
01:05:01Oh, that's my guy.
01:05:04Surgical genius.
01:05:07That's how Val makes history.
01:05:09Somebody get this man a medal.
01:05:11Or at least a new department.
01:05:12If you still want that chief medical officer position, say the word.
01:05:17Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:05:19That maneuver, that notebook.
01:05:24It's mine.
01:05:25Then tell them.
01:05:30Where is he going?
01:05:32Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:05:37Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:05:39Say, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:05:42That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:05:50What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:05:52He's delusional.
01:05:54Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:05:57The notebook he used to save your father.
01:06:00That's mine.
01:06:02My handwriting.
01:06:03My theories.
01:06:05Just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:06:08I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:06:13And when it fails,
01:06:15and it will,
01:06:18you're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:06:20The patients will.
01:06:21You can't prove that.
01:06:23Not yet.
01:06:25But you can't fake medicine.
01:06:28Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:06:34Our three's vitals just dropped.
01:06:36We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:06:37Second patient today.
01:06:38Same issue.
01:06:39Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:06:42These techniques aren't viable.
01:06:43The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:06:47I mean, come on.
01:06:48Tonight proves it.
01:06:49We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:07:00I'll be right back.
01:07:01Just coordinating with the team.
01:07:06Talk to me.
01:07:06The vascular fundal clamp maneuver failed again.
01:07:09This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:07:14Use the compression step.
01:07:15That only works in control scenarios.
01:07:18We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:07:21Look, just follow the notes.
01:07:23I designed those techniques for one-on-one guidance, not mass implementation.
01:07:32Without calibration, it's unstable.
01:07:36It's dangerous.
01:07:36They tried to commercialize.
01:07:37They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:07:39Now people are paying for it.
01:07:43All good?
01:07:44Of course.
01:07:46Just routine coordination.
01:07:48Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:07:52Your surgical program is failing.
01:07:53And patients are suffering.
01:07:54You've been out of the field for months.
01:07:57You wouldn't know?
01:07:58Yeah, I would know.
01:07:59Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:08:03And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:08:07Oh, shit.
01:08:14Oh, yes.
01:08:15This is Dr. Marksman.
01:08:16Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:08:21Okay, listen very carefully.
01:08:23Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:08:27because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:08:32No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver
01:08:35with selective hepatic arterial ligation
01:08:38followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis
01:08:41using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:08:46Yes.
01:08:48Yes.
01:08:51How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:08:54His whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:08:56You stole his methods.
01:08:58This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:09:04Uh, that's a lie.
01:09:05Then prove me wrong.
01:09:07Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:09:12Why would we believe anything he says?
01:09:14He was fired.
01:09:15He humiliated.
01:09:16You're right, I was fired.
01:09:18And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed
01:09:21and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:09:23Yeah, you know what?
01:09:25This is pathetic.
01:09:26He's just jealous.
01:09:27He missed his shot.
01:09:29Is that what you told yourself?
01:09:30When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:09:34Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:09:38I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:09:41I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:09:55And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:10:02Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:10:05You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, and you fired him.
01:10:10The one person who could make them safe.
01:10:14Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:10:18Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:10:20This hospital was built on trust and integrity, and you've disgraced them both.
01:10:26Your father nearly died because of your ego, because of his lies.
01:10:33You saved me.
01:10:35You saved Nelson.
01:10:37And now you can save Vale.
01:10:40I tried to warn you all.
01:10:42No one listened.
01:10:43They're listening now.
01:10:45You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two,
01:10:50and probably even more than me.
01:10:52It was a mistake to let you go.
01:10:56Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.
01:11:01They weren't ready.
01:11:02They needed supervision, precision, development.
01:11:07Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:11:11Oh, you can't prove that.
01:11:14Security footage
01:11:15of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:11:21already submitted to the board.
01:11:24I built on what he started, okay?
01:11:29I didn't steal.
01:11:30I enhanced it.
01:11:32Then why were patients about to die?
01:11:35You falsified rollout readiness?
01:11:38He did more than that.
01:11:40He put lives at risk
01:11:41to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:11:45We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:11:49This is absurd.
01:11:51This was supposed to be our night.
01:11:53Oh, it's your night.
01:11:55It's just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:11:57You lied to me.
01:11:59I didn't lie.
01:12:00I simplified the truth.
01:12:02Simplify?
01:12:03You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:12:08You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:12:11You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:12:14That's malpractice.
01:12:15They worked.
01:12:17Nelson's alive.
01:12:18Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:12:20Yeah, because of me.
01:12:21Those methods require sequential tensioning,
01:12:24breath control,
01:12:25special clamp techniques.
01:12:27Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:12:29Wait, these really are your techniques.
01:12:32I tested them for years.
01:12:34It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:12:37Not without training.
01:12:39You're rewriting history?
01:12:41No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:12:43Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.
01:12:48And without him, it won't.
01:12:50This is absurd!
01:12:52You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:12:55He's not disgraced, son.
01:12:57You are.
01:12:59You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:13:02And then when your ego wasn't enough,
01:13:05you propped up this fraud.
01:13:09Taking his side, Dad?
01:13:11I'm your son.
01:13:13I'm taking the side of truth.
01:13:16And so will the board.
01:13:16We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:13:20Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:13:25Suspended?
01:13:26No, no, no, you can't do that.
01:13:27You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:13:30We understand the liability.
01:13:31That's enough.
01:13:32Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Marksman, come with us.
01:13:40Dad, you're not going to often drag me out like this.
01:13:42I'm your son.
01:13:43No, don't you touch me.
01:13:45You're not a child.
01:13:46Hey, Dad!
01:13:47I'm your son of a bitch!
01:13:49You're just kidding, son of a...
01:13:50Dad!
01:13:50Get off me!
01:13:51No, get off me!
01:13:52I'm just...
01:13:53I'm not a child!
01:13:55You're not my responsibility.
01:13:56Adrian, please.
01:14:05I made a mistake.
01:14:06I see that now.
01:14:07I should have believed in you.
01:14:09I should have stood by you.
01:14:11You were right about everything.
01:14:12Just give me a second chance.
01:14:18Please.
01:14:20I still love you.
01:14:23Love?
01:14:24You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:14:27You don't understand.
01:14:29I thought he was finished.
01:14:32I thought he had nothing left.
01:14:33So you sold him out.
01:14:35Mocked him.
01:14:37Over and over again.
01:14:39I was scared.
01:14:40I...
01:14:41I didn't know what to do.
01:14:42Oh, you knew.
01:14:43You just didn't care.
01:14:45Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:14:49Please.
01:14:51Say something.
01:14:54Anything.
01:14:55You had your chance, Fiona.
01:14:57And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:15:10You always belonged in my operating room.
01:15:12And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:15:18The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board and David will never go near another patient again.
01:15:27We're rebuilding.
01:15:28We're rebuilding.
01:15:28And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:15:34I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:15:36I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:15:39You had your chance, too.
01:15:41I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:15:44Oh.
01:15:44All the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:15:47Adrian 2.0.
01:15:49I'm not coming back.
01:15:53You're choosing her?
01:15:55Our rival?
01:15:56You arrogant little ingrate.
01:15:58I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:16:03Just typical.
01:16:05Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it.
01:16:08For what?
01:16:09Her?
01:16:09She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:16:14Oh.
01:16:15Projecting much, Nelson.
01:16:17Get me out of here.
01:16:19Now!
01:16:20Karma has good timing.
01:16:41Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:16:45We have lives to save.
01:16:46Hey.
01:16:48Not so fast, mister.
01:16:50Hotshot genius sergeant.
01:16:52I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:16:58Now?
01:16:59Well, just in a time like the present.
01:17:08This is what victory tastes like.
01:17:11It's not bad.
01:17:13I need a second opinion.
01:17:17Well, I've got all night.
01:17:18And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:17:24Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:17:26You're already exceeding expectations.
01:17:28You're already exceeding expectations.
01:17:30But I am very thorough.
01:17:39Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:17:44Besides being you, of course.
01:17:46I think that never Satin was done until I was jumped.
01:17:58I don't know.
01:18:00Like, if I said I had to meet you.
01:18:01But my typically looks at all things like this.
01:18:02I don't know.
01:18:02I don't want to go.
01:18:02You're not even here.
01:18:04I have over here.
01:18:04I bet that there is no place.
01:18:05You're not a good place to come out.
01:18:07I don't even need the best one.
01:18:08I don't need it for it.
01:18:09But it really tests me.
01:18:10Yeah, I didn't need it.
01:18:10I have anktopedrao.
