Short filmTranscript
00:00:00A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:00:11The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:20Facials crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:23All the hours are full. We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:26Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:28Well, I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:31We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:00:50Need a hand?
00:00:52A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:55What? Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this?
00:01:00Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:01Then you prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:04Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:14Whipple? For trauma?
00:01:16That's insane.
00:01:17Trust me.
00:01:19Medicine bomb scissors.
00:01:22Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:26That procedure will take hours.
00:01:28The patient won't survive.
00:01:29Brovicottery.
00:01:33Watch.
00:01:39He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:42But bleeding.
00:01:43It's under control.
00:01:45But how did he...
00:01:47Silk suture.
00:01:54Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:01:57I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:04Almost done.
00:02:14This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:16This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:46Procedures at Mass General.
00:02:47Is that you?
00:02:55Final suture.
00:02:57Miss Vale's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:03Doctor!
00:03:06The nurses, they said you did it.
00:03:10And you, you actually did.
00:03:12Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:18Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live.
00:03:22But you, you saved my Catherine.
00:03:26She'll make a full recovery, President Vale.
00:03:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:03:30We need you at Vale.
00:03:32My hospital.
00:03:36Look, I'll explain later.
00:03:37Right now, we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:41It's going to take hours.
00:03:43Y'all should go home.
00:03:44Get some rest.
00:03:45I'll take over from here.
00:03:46Good work, everyone.
00:03:50Good work, everyone.
00:03:50Good work, everyone.
00:04:20They're all stable.
00:04:23Every single one of them.
00:04:25Stabilized.
00:04:30Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:04:33You must have operated all night.
00:04:35You're a machine.
00:04:37Well, that's why they paid me the big bucks.
00:04:39All right.
00:04:41It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:04:43Hey, you.
00:05:02Hey, yourself.
00:05:05I've been operating all night.
00:05:07I've seen every single patient in that pilot.
00:05:09What you did was extraordinary.
00:05:13How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:17Because I know you.
00:05:19Better than anyone.
00:05:26Blueberry.
00:05:27Your favorite.
00:05:29You remembered.
00:05:31Where's your dad?
00:05:31You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:37I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:42It's the third time this week.
00:05:52Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:54Hmm.
00:05:56So who's this marksman guy?
00:05:58His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:59Sure.
00:06:00I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:02I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:05With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:06:08What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:19Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:24Who is this guy?
00:06:25Preston Vail, Preston Vail's son, Harvard MBA.
00:06:30He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:34who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:38I'm sorry.
00:06:39Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:45Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:47Sir, about last...
00:06:48Save it.
00:06:51Parker.
00:06:52You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:54You're fired.
00:06:57Clear out your office.
00:06:59New management means new standards.
00:07:01It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:07:06Attention.
00:07:07Need everybody's attention now.
00:07:10If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs,
00:07:14every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:16No complications, no deaths.
00:07:19This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:21Who does he think he is?
00:07:24Dr. House?
00:07:27What is this?
00:07:29Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:32Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:34This is a hospital.
00:07:38We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:42That was from my residency direction.
00:07:44Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:46Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients
00:07:48and a little less time collecting gold stars,
00:07:51you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:53You're fired.
00:07:54Excuse me?
00:07:54Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop
00:07:57just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:08:00Yes, sir.
00:08:01Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:05That was good.
00:08:06Let's go.
00:08:11Well, well, well.
00:08:13What do we have here?
00:08:15Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:18Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:19Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:26No, you didn't.
00:08:28But here's one anyway.
00:08:29You are fired.
00:08:34Are you serious?
00:08:35You're firing me?
00:08:37Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:08:40Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:43Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:44He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:51What's he make?
00:08:52$700,000.
00:08:54That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:56$700?
00:08:58Are you insane?
00:08:59You're giving resident money to a first-year
00:09:01who sleeps on the job?
00:09:02This hospital is being scammed.
00:09:05I just worked all night.
00:09:07Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
00:09:08Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:09:11Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:09:15What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:09:17Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons,
00:09:20or this is some sort of insurance scam.
00:09:23Adrian and I might be sleeping together,
00:09:25but I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:27My career comes first.
00:09:29Boy, bye.
00:09:31There must be some clerical error.
00:09:33His credentials.
00:09:35Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:38Fiona.
00:09:41Dr. Marksman.
00:09:43You are F-I-R-E-D.
00:09:47Fired.
00:09:48Clear out your office.
00:09:50Clear out your locker.
00:09:52And get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:55This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:56You need to check the surgical law.
00:09:57You don't get to wear that.
00:09:58What?
00:10:06I see.
00:10:06Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:11You don't understand.
00:10:13He's the one who...
00:10:13Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:16Beat it.
00:10:17Vail is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:10:19Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:20I understand.
00:10:41Hospital politics.
00:10:42I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:47Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:50I'll be waiting.
00:10:59You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:01If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:11:12Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:14I intend to wield it.
00:11:16Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:11:20Your little scam artist situation ship?
00:11:23No, Preston.
00:11:24He means nothing to me.
00:11:26Really.
00:11:27I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:11:29Let's be clear about your future here.
00:11:32Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:11:36Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:11:42The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:46Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:59Hey, Dad.
00:12:00What's wrong?
00:12:01Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:12:03She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:12:08And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:11Of course.
00:12:11What is it?
00:12:12That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:12:15Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:18Dr. Marksman?
00:12:19Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:22Get out of my hospital.
00:12:24Christ.
00:12:25The resident I just fired?
00:12:28Preston?
00:12:29Are you there?
00:12:31Check the staff roster.
00:12:33See if we have another marksman working for us here.
00:12:37I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:12:41He's the surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:43And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:47The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:50Ah, yes.
00:12:57I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:13:01Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:13:05Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:13:09Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:13:11Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:13:12That's our man.
00:13:14There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:13:18Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:13:20Do me a favor.
00:13:21Fire him.
00:13:23Already done, Dad.
00:13:25I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:13:27Thank God.
00:13:28Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:13:31Good work, son.
00:13:33I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:13:37Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:13:39I got everything else under control.
00:13:47See?
00:13:48Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:52Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:55Mr. Bale, sir.
00:13:57Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:59Multiple traumas incoming.
00:14:00The six-car pileup.
00:14:01You fired half our surgery team.
00:14:02What's your point?
00:14:03ER is crashing.
00:14:05We've no one left who can handle it.
00:14:06Give me the situation.
00:14:14Now.
00:14:15Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:14:18Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:14:22We're losing patients.
00:14:23What are our options?
00:14:25There might be one solution.
00:14:26Well, spit it out.
00:14:28Dr. Marksman.
00:14:29He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:14:32If we can get him back here.
00:14:34Marksman.
00:14:34Right.
00:14:35That's the men we need.
00:14:35Fiona, call him.
00:14:37Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:14:39The genius surgeon.
00:14:40The one I didn't fire.
00:14:42Keep up.
00:14:42What the hell?
00:14:49Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:05Idiot left his research notes.
00:15:07Modified trauma protocol.
00:15:12Wait.
00:15:14These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:15:18Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:24Hello?
00:15:25Dr. Marksman.
00:15:26Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:15:29Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:15:33I'm on my way.
00:15:34Okay.
00:15:34Okay.
00:15:34Okay.
00:15:34Okay.
00:15:34Okay.
00:15:35Okay.
00:15:35Okay.
00:15:36Okay.
00:15:37With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:15:42They'll make me department head.
00:15:44And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:52Well?
00:15:53Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:55Thank God.
00:15:55Now, about your loyalty, I was using him to advance my career.
00:16:13You're my future.
00:16:14That's my girl.
00:16:15That's my girl.
00:16:16Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
00:16:28To hell with this.
00:16:31I'm going up.
00:16:31piece of shit.
00:16:47Piece of shit.
00:16:47Get your hand off my girl.
00:16:53Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:16:57You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own
00:17:01nose.
00:17:02You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:17:06I can choose who I want, and I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:17:10You pathetic loser.
00:17:27We're done, Adrian.
00:17:29Ancient history.
00:17:31Are you serious?
00:17:33Just like that.
00:17:35Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:17:40Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:17:42Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:17:44I need someone with a future, not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:17:53Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:55It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:18:03Look at us, Adrian.
00:18:04I'm the future of Vale Hospital, and you?
00:18:10I'm just a slacker and scrubs.
00:18:13You're washed up, marksman.
00:18:15Perhaps try nursing?
00:18:17I hear they're always hiring.
00:18:19Fiona, I met you here, and it made me want to stay.
00:18:23I thought we could build a family together.
00:18:26Get over yourself.
00:18:28You think I'm gonna stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:18:31President Vale would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:18:39We're done.
00:18:41I'm not done.
00:18:43But when I am, there won't be a Vale Hospital left standing.
00:18:48You can count on that.
00:18:49No, no, no, don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:18:54Your troubles are just getting started.
00:19:01Who authorized you to be here?
00:19:03Mr. Vale, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:19:06we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident,
00:19:09and the situation is completely under control.
00:19:12You're Dr. Marksman.
00:19:14Ah, yes, the very same.
00:19:16My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:19:20Harvard Medical, was it?
00:19:22These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:19:28As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:19:32Mr. Vale, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:37He was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table.
00:19:42Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:19:52Dr. Hart.
00:19:54Incredible news.
00:19:56Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:20:00he's just been terminated from Vale Hospital.
00:20:03When?
00:20:04Less than an hour ago.
00:20:05Dismissed by President Vale's son.
00:20:09Huh.
00:20:11Amazing.
00:20:12I'd pay to see Nelson Vale's face when he discovers that his prize surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:20:20With our respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:20:24Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:20:27I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:20:30Full department autonomy.
00:20:33Research funding.
00:20:35State-of-the-art facilities.
00:20:37And if necessary,
00:20:39my personal involvement.
00:20:42His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:20:46Have my car brought round.
00:20:47I'm going to Vale Hospital personally.
00:20:51And Adrian Marksman?
00:20:53He's leaving with me.
00:20:54I'll fees.
00:20:55What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:20:56Don't insult our intelligence.
00:20:57A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:20:58The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:21:00Yet you stand there denying it.
00:21:01This is crazy.
00:21:02You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:21:04And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership, you blame me?
00:21:23The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:21:27If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be there,
00:21:29a prescription pad if you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be you would still
00:21:35have a job i'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of mr vale security
00:21:41please detain him what exactly are you accusing me of either confess to medical malfeasance or
00:21:54they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence adrian i never realized you were

00:24:14wait are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor as value he was sleeping during rounds is this how
00:24:21vale hospital discards its exceptional talent your father built this institution's reputation of medical
00:24:29excellence not petty politics dr hart with all due respect this is a conversation between medical
00:24:37directors someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence dr hart i must inform you that
00:24:43dr marksman represents a serious liability he compromised patient safety and i don't believe i requested your
00:24:50medical opinion dr marksman david marksman i have neither time nor interest in your assessment
00:24:59after he decided to go to sleep we had a critical surgical complication
00:25:05his negligence led to the problem his actions not only endangered patients it compromised
00:25:10my hospital's reputation are you really willing to defend someone who violates the hippocratic oath
00:25:18did you actually consult with your father before dismissing dr marksman
00:25:21of course i consulted my father he's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical
00:25:29shortcuts and inflated reputation dangerous shortcuts is that what president vale really said his exact
00:25:37words were remove him at first opportunity president vale was the one that recruited me this makes
00:25:42absolutely no sense please adrian the president wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you
00:25:49those gala invitations were professional courtesy not genuine respect well if that's the way things work
00:25:56at vale i have nothing more to contribute to any of you dr marksman would you consider joining heart
00:26:02medical center as our chief of surgery well i've full department autonomy protected research time
00:26:11medical center as surgical fellowship in your name and a seven-figure salary package
00:26:27and cash dr marksman i want you to revolutionize our surgery program hopefully this shows you
00:26:55i mean what i say
00:27:04chief of surgery
00:27:08you're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job
00:27:12dr hart have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs this is absurd he was a
00:27:19mediocre surgeon here at vale and now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical
00:27:25department the medical board should review your hiring practices
00:27:32vivian i appreciate your confidence
00:27:36this isn't about money maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you
00:27:44she's offering herself up to him she can't do that are you a doctor or a call girl
00:27:50at heart medical center you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves
00:27:55including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value and i do mean anything dr marksman
00:28:02dr hart for the sake of your own reputation you you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly
00:28:12pursuing has a documented history of negligence my father confirmed it himself is that precisely
00:28:19what nelson bale told you what nelson bale told you his exact words negligence search what are those
00:28:28personal gifts from your father
00:28:33my fellowship offer my personal research lab my surgical team i'm leaving it all behind
00:28:40you can tell president veil that as of this moment dr marksman has permanently withdrawn from
00:28:48veil hospital and all of its affiliated institutions you know what spare us the theatrics adrian you never
00:28:55deserve those privileges in the first place the medical board is going to see that justice is done
00:29:00oh your stupidity it's just astonishing you treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels this man
00:29:12is a life-saving artist
00:29:17dr hart i understand there's some competition between your center and veil hospital yeah look i'll be real
00:29:25we're struggling to get out from under their shadow look i'd be happy to help you out with that
00:29:29take me on and i'll transform heart into the number one surgical institution in the country
00:29:36look at yourself adrian offering your skills to a struggling clinic how pathetically desperate
00:29:43oh a backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber
00:29:50how dare you talk to me like that your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's
00:29:57reputation as the responsible party i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major
00:30:03medical journals and with an explanation to every affected veil hospital patient
00:30:10refuse me and i will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently that accusation isn't
00:30:17just baseness it's absurd what exactly do you think you're going to do about it you got no choice but
00:30:23to sign this confession oh stop threatening my chief surgeon if you insist on pursuing this vendetta
00:30:29have your attorney send a formal complaint to heart medical center we'll consider it nothing less than a
00:30:35declaration of total war if it's war you want i will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that
00:30:44i've got let's go one more second and a cesspool is going to make me physically ill

00:32:03revolutionary i'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency
00:32:07it's impressive it's impressive dr marksman you've obviously got your own methodology

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

00:51:49yeah you too are in way over your heads
00:51:52do you really think that this is acceptable
00:51:56I give you one simple task and you screw it up
00:51:59how the hell did either of you even finish residency
00:52:03Vail General Hospital
00:52:05is the gold standard
00:52:07and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:52:10if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:52:13you're both gone
00:52:14is that clear?
00:52:16yes sir
00:52:17this is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team
00:52:21go
00:52:24oh
00:52:30Mr. Vail
00:52:31what a
00:52:31what a
00:52:32what a surprise
00:52:33cut the bullshit marksman
00:52:34are we on schedule or not?
00:52:37of course
00:52:38we're
00:52:39we're just refining the final stages
00:52:42yeah
00:52:43everything is under control
00:52:45good
00:52:46there's a problem
00:52:47I expect to hear it from you
00:52:48with no cover-ups
00:52:49of course sir
00:52:50Mr. Vail
00:52:54not now
00:52:55go get me the latest performance reports
00:52:57it uh
00:53:01looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:53:05on our lovely administrator here
00:53:06don't worry
00:53:08when Preston makes me chief medical officer
00:53:10I'm gonna need someone
00:53:12flexible in my corner
00:53:14I was back at the winning team Dr. Marksman
00:53:17Today Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next generation surgical program
00:53:30this cutting edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:53:35especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day
00:53:40the question now is
00:53:42who will define the future of surgery
00:53:44relax Mr. Vail
00:53:47Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance
00:53:49I hope you're right
00:53:52for your sake
00:53:54didn't you say that uh
00:53:58if the rollout went well
00:54:00that you'd make me
00:54:01chief medical officer
00:54:02it's not a success
00:54:04yet
00:54:05enjoy tonight's launch party
00:54:09because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical
00:54:12it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time
00:54:15Dr. Heart we uh have a problem
00:54:29Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:54:33that soon?
00:54:34they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:54:38it's a good thing we're ahead
00:54:41you're saying we're ready
00:54:44why would I lie
00:54:46we've been tracking Vail's every move
00:54:48let him celebrate
00:54:50it's just gonna backfire
00:54:52how exactly does that work in our favor?
00:54:56Viv, do you remember what I told you
00:54:57when you first brought me here?
00:55:00Preston Vail's rushing this
00:55:02he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:55:04and?
00:55:05their model's flawed
00:55:06if they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach
00:55:10we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:55:14and what about when it falls apart?
00:55:16then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery
00:55:19so you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:55:26it's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast
00:55:28they're using an early draft
00:55:30full of mistakes that I won't make again
00:55:32they don't even realize the cracks in their foundation
00:55:36that actually makes perfect sense
00:55:39which means
00:55:41we've already won
00:55:43well this is a big day for us
00:55:45we should celebrate
00:55:46what do you have on mind?

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