00:00:00Patients crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:03The patient won't survive.
00:00:04Watch.
00:00:05Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a reliable trauma like this?
00:00:09This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:00:11What you just did will go down in the history box.
00:00:14Who is this guy?
00:00:15He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:00:17New management, new standards.
00:00:19Sleeping after a shift?
00:00:20You are fired.
00:00:22I just worked all night.
00:00:23Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:00:25He's the one.
00:00:26Didn't I fire you too already?
00:00:29Get your hand off my gun arm.
00:00:31We're done, Adrian.
00:00:32I need someone with a future.
00:00:34Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:00:39This isn't about money.
00:00:40Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?
00:00:45These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:00:47With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:00:50Great step!
00:00:51Uh, why are you just standing there?
00:00:53Do something!
00:00:54If you need help, just ask.
00:00:55All you have to do is know what you did.
00:00:59A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:01:11The 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.
00:01:20The patient's crashing.
00:01:21We need an attending surgeon now!
00:01:23All the hours are full.
00:01:24We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:01:26Sir, the patient trauma three is coding.
00:01:29I can't leave this one.
00:01:30Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:01:31We need another attending surgeon.
00:01:33Everyone else is in the ER.
00:01:34Need a hand?
00:01:35A new hire.
00:01:36You just started this month.
00:01:41Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this.
00:01:47The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:49Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
00:01:51The patient's yours.
00:01:52Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:53Whipple?
00:01:54For trauma?
00:01:55That's insane.
00:01:56Trust me.
00:01:57Metzenbaum scissors?
00:01:58Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:59That procedure will take hours.
00:02:01No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:02:03Dr. Marksman, patient's yours.
00:02:10Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:02:14Whipple?
00:02:15For trauma?
00:02:16That's insane.
00:02:17Trust me.
00:02:19Metzenbaum scissors?
00:02:22Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:02:26That procedure will take hours.
00:02:28The patient won't survive.
00:02:30Bovicottery?
00:02:33Watch.
00:02:40He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:02:43But bleeding.
00:02:44It's under control.
00:02:45But how did he...?
00:02:48Silk suture.
00:02:54Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:02:58I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:59I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:04Almost done.
00:03:05This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:11Jesus, Adrian.
00:03:12What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:03:17I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that... that was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:03:24Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:03:25What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:26Wait.
00:03:27I heard President Bale personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:34Is that you?
00:03:35Is that you?
00:03:36Final suture.
00:03:37Miss Bale's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:38Doctor!
00:03:39The nurse is dead.
00:03:40What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:41Wait.
00:03:42I heard President Bale personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:46Is that you?
00:03:47Is that you?
00:03:55Final suture.
00:03:56Miss Bale's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:04:04Doctor!
00:04:06The nurses.
00:04:07They said you did it.
00:04:09And you...
00:04:10You actually did.
00:04:12Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:16Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:04:22You...
00:04:24You saved my Catherine.
00:04:26She'll make a full recovery, President Bale.
00:04:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:30We need you at Bale.
00:04:31My hospital.
00:04:35Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:36Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:04:40It's gonna take hours.
00:04:41Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:04:44I'll take over from here.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:47Good work, everyone.
00:04:49Good work, everyone.
00:05:19They're all stable.
00:05:22Every single one of them.
00:05:24Stabilized.
00:05:29Oh.
00:05:30The sun's coming up.
00:05:32You must have operated all night.
00:05:34You're a machine.
00:05:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:38All right.
00:05:40It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:42Hey, you.
00:05:43Hey, yourself.
00:05:45I've been operating all night.
00:05:46I've seen every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:47All you did was extraordinary.
00:05:48How do you always know exactly?
00:05:49What I needed.
00:05:50Because I know you.
00:05:54I know you.
00:05:55Hey, you.
00:06:01Hey, yourself.
00:06:04I've been operating all night.
00:06:07I see every single patient in that pileup.
00:06:10All you did was extraordinary.
00:06:12How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:06:16Because I know you.
00:06:18Better than anyone.
00:06:25Goldberry, your favorite?
00:06:28He remembered.
00:06:30Where's your dad?
00:06:32You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:06:36I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:06:49It's the third time this week.
00:06:51Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:06:53Hmm.
00:06:55So who's this Marksman guy?
00:06:57His surgical skills are unreal.
00:06:58Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.
00:07:01I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:07:04With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:07:15What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:07:18Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:07:23Who is this guy?
00:07:25Preston Vail, Preston Vail's son, Harvard MBA.
00:07:29He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:07:33who just recovered from an experimental pancreatico duodenectomy.
00:07:38I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:07:44Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:07:46Sir, about that-
00:07:47Save it.
00:07:49Parker.
00:07:51You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:07:54You're fired.
00:07:56Clear out your office.
00:07:57New management means new standards.
00:08:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:08:02Attention in everybody's attention now.
00:08:09If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:08:15No complications, no deaths.
00:08:18This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:08:20Who does he think he is?
00:08:23Dr. House?
00:08:25What is this?
00:08:28Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:08:31Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:08:34This is a hospital.
00:08:37We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:08:41That was from my residency direction.
00:08:43It'll cry me a river.
00:08:45Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:08:52You're fired.
00:08:53Excuse me?
00:08:53Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:08:59Yes, sir.
00:09:00Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:09:04That was good.
00:09:05Let's go.
00:09:10Well, well, well.
00:09:11What do we have here?
00:09:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:09:17Rise and shine, superstar.
00:09:23Did I order a wake-up call?
00:09:25No, you didn't.
00:09:27But here's one anyway.
00:09:28You are fired.
00:09:32Are you serious?
00:09:34You're firing me?
00:09:36Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:09:38Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:09:42Fiona, what's his position here?
00:09:44He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:09:49What's he make?
00:09:51$700,000.
00:09:52That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:09:55$700?
00:09:56Are you insane?
00:09:58You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:10:01This hospital is being scammed.
00:10:03I just worked all night.
00:10:05Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
00:10:06Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?
00:10:10Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:10:13What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:10:16Are there you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:10:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:10:26My career comes first.
00:10:28Boy, bye.
00:10:30There must be some clerical error.
00:10:32His credentials.
00:10:34Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:10:36Fiona?
00:10:39Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
00:10:47Clear out your office.
00:10:49Clear out your locker.
00:10:50Or get the hell out of my hospital.
00:10:53This is a mistake, okay?
00:10:55You need to check the surgical lock.
00:10:56You don't get to wear that.
00:10:57What?
00:10:57I see.
00:11:07Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:11:10You don't understand.
00:11:11He's the one who...
00:11:12Didn't I fire you two already?
00:11:14Beat it.
00:11:15Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:11:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:11:27I understand.
00:11:39Hospital politics.
00:11:41Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:11:45Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:11:48I'll be waiting.
00:11:48You care to explain that little exchange?
00:12:04The board won't like this.
00:12:06Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:12:08Patient care will suffer.
00:12:10Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:12:12I intend to wield it.
00:12:14Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular.
00:12:18Your little scam artist situation-ship.
00:12:21No, Preston.
00:12:22He means nothing to me.
00:12:24Really.
00:12:25I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:12:27Let's be clear about your future here.
00:12:30Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:12:34Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks?
00:12:38Including yours.
00:12:40The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:12:44Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded
00:12:47who's in charge around here.
00:12:57Hey, Dad.
00:12:58What's wrong?
00:12:59Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:13:01She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:13:06And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:13:09Of course.
00:13:09What is it?
00:13:09That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman, whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:13:16Dr. Marksman?
00:13:17Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:13:20Get out of my hospital.
00:13:22Christ.
00:13:23The resident I just fired?
00:13:26Preston?
00:13:27Are you there?
00:13:29Check the staff roster.
00:13:30Let's see if we have another marksman working for us here.
00:13:35I had to back up the Brinks truck to get him here.
00:13:39He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:13:41And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:13:45The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:13:48Ah, yes, I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:13:58Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:14:03Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:14:07Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:14:09Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:14:10That's our man.
00:14:11There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:14:16Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:14:17Do me a favor, fire him.
00:14:21Already done, Dad.
00:14:22I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:14:25Thank God.
00:14:26Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:14:29Good work, son.
00:14:31I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:14:34Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:14:36I got everything else under control.
00:14:44See?
00:14:45I told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:14:49Now, about your career trajectory.
00:14:53Mr. Vale, sir.
00:14:54Can't you see I'm busy?
00:14:56Multiple traumas incoming.
00:14:57The six-car pileup.
00:14:59You fired half our surgery team.
00:15:00What's your point?
00:15:01ER is crashing.
00:15:03We've no one left who can handle it.
00:15:10Give me the situation.
00:15:12Now.
00:15:13Six critical traumas.
00:15:15Three more incoming.
00:15:16Multiple crush injuries.
00:15:18Arterial bleed, sir.
00:15:19We're losing patients.
00:15:21What are our options?
00:15:22There might be one solution.
00:15:24Well, spit it out.
00:15:26Dr. Marksman.
00:15:27He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:15:29If we can get him back here.
00:15:31Marksman.
00:15:32Right.
00:15:32That's the man we need.
00:15:33Fiona, call him.
00:15:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:15:37The genius surgeon.
00:15:38The one I didn't fire.
00:15:39Keep up.
00:15:40What the hell?
00:15:46Where'd all this stuff go?
00:16:03Idiot left his research notes.
00:16:07Modified trauma protocol.
00:16:08Wait.
00:16:11These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:16:15Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:16:21Hello?
00:16:22Dr. Marksman.
00:16:23Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:16:26Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis,
00:16:28there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:16:30I'm on my way.
00:16:35With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:16:38They'll make me department head.
00:16:41And I can finally make seven figures.
00:16:49Well?
00:16:50Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:16:52Thank God.
00:16:53Now, about your loyalty.
00:17:06Adrian meant nothing.
00:17:08I was using him to advance my career.
00:17:11You're my future.
00:17:12That's my girl.
00:17:13Beyond a shift in it an hour ago,
00:17:23the boss's son is up to something.
00:17:27To hell with this.
00:17:28I'm going out.
00:17:29Piece of shit.
00:17:48Get your hand on my girl.
00:17:50Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:17:54You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon
00:17:56can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:17:59You mean to tell me that you've been messing around
00:18:01with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:18:03I can choose who I want.
00:18:05And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:18:07You pathetic loser.
00:18:08We're done, Adrian.
00:18:26Ancient history.
00:18:28Are you serious?
00:18:31Just like that.
00:18:32Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:18:35Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:18:39Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:18:41I need someone with a future,
00:18:43not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:18:50Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:18:53It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:18:58Look at us, Adrian.
00:19:02I'm the future of Vail Hospital,
00:19:04and you are just a slacker and scrubs.
00:19:10You're washed up, marksman.
00:19:12Perhaps try nursing?
00:19:14I hear they're always hiring.
00:19:17Fiona, I met you here,
00:19:18and it made me want to stay.
00:19:20I thought we could build a family together.
00:19:24Get over yourself.
00:19:25You think I'm going to stay with someone
00:19:27who lied about their credentials?
00:19:28President Vail would never have hired someone
00:19:32who sleeps during shifts.
00:19:36We're done.
00:19:38I'm not done.
00:19:39But when I am,
00:19:41there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:19:44You can count on that.
00:19:46No, no, no.
00:19:49Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:19:52Your troubles are just getting started.
00:19:58Who authorized you to be here?
00:20:00Mr. Vail,
00:20:00I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:20:03we've stabilized all the patients
00:20:05from the multi-car accident,
00:20:06and the situation is completely under control.
00:20:09You're Dr. Marksman.
00:20:11Ah, yes.
00:20:12The very same.
00:20:13My father mentioned your
00:20:14exceptional credentials.
00:20:16Harvard Medical, was it?
00:20:19These morons have no idea
00:20:21I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:20:25As long as the boss's son is impressed,
00:20:27I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:20:29Mr. Vail,
00:20:30I've identified who's responsible
00:20:31for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:20:35He was sleeping
00:20:36while a patient almost died on the table.
00:20:39Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:20:48Dr. Hart.
00:20:50Incredible news.
00:20:52Dr. Adrian Marksman,
00:20:54that surgical pioneer
00:20:55that you've been tracking,
00:20:56he's just been terminated
00:20:58from Vail Hospital.
00:21:00When?
00:21:01Less than an hour ago.
00:21:02Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:21:06Oh.
00:21:07Amazing.
00:21:09I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face
00:21:11when he discovers
00:21:12that his prized surgeon
00:21:13was fired by his submental son.
00:21:16With, uh, respect,
00:21:18we're still establishing our reputation.
00:21:21Would someone of Marksman's caliber
00:21:23even consider joining us?
00:21:25Well, I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:21:27Full department autonomy,
00:21:30research funding,
00:21:31state-of-the-art facilities,
00:21:33and, if necessary,
00:21:35my personal involvement.
00:21:39His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:21:43Have my car brought round.
00:21:45I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:21:48And Adrian Marksman,
00:21:50he's leaving with me.
00:21:51What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:22:01Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:22:03A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:22:05The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:22:07Yet you stand there denying it.
00:22:09This is crazy.
00:22:11You've all passed me off
00:22:12as some second-rate surgeon.
00:22:13And when a complication occurs,
00:22:15which happened in this hospital
00:22:16under your incompetent leadership,
00:22:19you blame me.
00:22:23The collective medical knowledge in this room
00:22:25isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:22:28If you were even half the surgeon
00:22:30that you claim to be,
00:22:31you would still have a job.
00:22:33I'm not going to stand here
00:22:35and debate medicine with you
00:22:36in front of Mr. Vail.
00:22:37Security, please detain him.
00:22:43What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:22:47Either confess to medical malfeasance
00:22:49or they'll escort you to the police
00:22:52for criminal negligence.
00:22:54Adrian, I never realized
00:22:56you were capable of endangering patients.
00:22:58What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:23:01You better confess now
00:23:02or we'll do everything in the power
00:23:03to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:23:07Fine.
00:23:08Go ahead.
00:23:10Do your worst.
00:23:11Let's see if a single piece of evidence
00:23:13holds up in front of the medical board.
00:23:16You really underestimate
00:23:18my family's influence, don't you?
00:23:21Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here
00:23:23can end your entire career
00:23:24with one phone call?
00:23:25Sir, I strongly recommend
00:23:27that we make an example out of him.
00:23:29After all, he'll be a danger
00:23:30to his patients wherever he goes.
00:23:32Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:23:35Not after what he did to our patients.
00:23:39I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:23:41As of this moment,
00:23:43Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted
00:23:45from Vail Hospital
00:23:46and every medical institute in the country.
00:23:48Plan's in motion, Adrian.
00:23:50Do you know what that means?
00:23:52It means that you
00:23:53will never practice medicine
00:23:55in this country again.
00:23:56I have one question before I go.
00:24:01Does your father know you fired me?
00:24:04My father's the one
00:24:05who asked me to fire you,
00:24:06you dipshit.
00:24:09You thought you were
00:24:10some brilliant surgical god,
00:24:12didn't you?
00:24:14Security, remove this criminal
00:24:15from hospital property immediately.
00:24:17Immediately.
00:24:18Yes, doctor.
00:24:19Right away, sir.
00:24:19That's quite enough.
00:24:35Let him go.
00:24:38Dr. Marksman
00:24:39is about to accept the position
00:24:41as chief of surgical innovation
00:24:43at Heart Medical Center.
00:24:45I know you.
00:24:49You're Vivian Hart,
00:24:50the surgical upstart
00:24:51from that medical clinic across town.
00:24:53That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you,
00:24:56Mr. Vail.
00:24:58Vivian?
00:24:59I haven't seen you
00:24:59since the John Hopkins Symposium
00:25:01like four or five years ago.
00:25:03What are you doing here?
00:25:04Well, I'm here for the most
00:25:05innovative surgeon in the country,
00:25:07of course.
00:25:08Wait.
00:25:10Are you seriously suggesting
00:25:12this negligent doctor has value?
00:25:14He was sleeping during rounds.
00:25:17Is this how Vail Hospital
00:25:18discards its exceptional talent?
00:25:21Your father built
00:25:22this institution's reputation
00:25:23of medical excellence,
00:25:25not petty politics.
00:25:28Dr. Hart,
00:25:29with all due respect...
00:25:31This is a conversation
00:25:32between medical directors.
00:25:33Someone in your position
00:25:34should recognize
00:25:35when to maintain silence.
00:25:36Dr. Hart,
00:25:38I must inform you
00:25:39that Dr. Marksman
00:25:40represents a serious liability.
00:25:42He compromised
00:25:43patient safety and...
00:25:45I don't believe
00:25:45I requested your medical opinion,
00:25:47Dr....
00:25:48Marksman.
00:25:49David Marksman.
00:25:50I have neither time
00:25:51nor interest
00:25:52in your assessment.
00:25:55After he
00:25:56decided to go to sleep,
00:25:58we had a critical
00:25:59surgical complication.
00:26:01His negligence
00:26:01led to the problem.
00:26:03His actions
00:26:04not only endangered patients,
00:26:05it compromised
00:26:06my hospital's reputation.
00:26:07Are you really willing
00:26:10to defend someone
00:26:11who violates
00:26:12the Hippocratic Oath?
00:26:13Did you actually
00:26:14consult with your father
00:26:15before dismissing
00:26:16Dr. Marksman?
00:26:18Of course I consulted
00:26:19my father.
00:26:21He's the one
00:26:22who specifically mentioned
00:26:23his dangerous
00:26:24surgical shortcuts
00:26:25and inflated reputation.
00:26:27Dangerous shortcuts?
00:26:29Is that what
00:26:30President Vail
00:26:31really said?
00:26:32His exact words were,
00:26:33remove him
00:26:34at first opportunity.
00:26:36President Vail
00:26:36was the one
00:26:37that recruited me.
00:26:37This makes
00:26:38absolutely no sense.
00:26:39Please, Adrian.
00:26:40The President
00:26:41wouldn't personally
00:26:42recruit a mid-level
00:26:43surgeon like you.
00:26:45Those gala invitations
00:26:46were professional courtesy,
00:26:48not genuine respect.
00:26:50Well, if that's
00:26:51the way things work
00:26:52at Vail,
00:26:52I have nothing more
00:26:53to contribute
00:26:53to any of you.
00:26:55Dr. Marksman,
00:26:57would you consider
00:26:57joining Heart Medical Center
00:26:59as our chief of surgery?
00:27:02Well, I've...
00:27:03Full department autonomy,
00:27:05protected research time,
00:27:07a surgical fellowship

00:28:07dr hart have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs
00:28:11this is absurd he was a mediocre surgeon here at vale
00:28:16and now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department
00:28:20medical board should review your hiring practices
00:28:25vivian i appreciate your confidence this isn't about money
00:28:32maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you
00:28:38she's offering herself up to him she can't do that
00:28:41are you a doctor or a call girl at heart medical center
00:28:46you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves
00:28:49including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value
00:28:55and i don't mean anything dr marksman
00:28:57dr hart for the sake of your own reputation
00:29:03you need to know that this hack
00:29:05you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history
00:29:08of negligence
00:29:09my father confirmed it himself

00:30:46your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation
00:30:52as the responsible party i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major
00:30:58medical journals

00:31:09that accusation isn't just baseness

00:33:33glad you're feeling better honey
00:33:38thank you
00:33:39well sorry who's this
00:33:43nelson vale speaking
00:33:47president vale dr vivian hart here
00:33:50i am calling to let you know that as of this morning
00:33:54hart medical center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena
00:33:58revolutionary surgical procedures are vale hospital's domain
00:34:02are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight this is merely a professional courtesy call
00:34:08not an invitation for debate
00:34:09not an invitation for debate
00:34:10now just
00:34:15what is that conniving bitch plotting she knows adrian is our surgical secret weapon
00:34:19why would she deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning
00:34:26unless
00:34:28dad we've got multiple traumas coming in
00:34:30just tell me you didn't fire dr marksman
00:34:34dad relax
00:34:45i fired the other one
00:34:47that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned
00:34:49then explain to me why hart medical center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy
00:34:56because i masterfully led vivian hart into a false sense of reality
00:35:02there's no way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures
00:35:06i convinced vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance
00:35:10but in reality she's hired our disgrace discarded loser
00:35:14so you deliberately manipulated vivian
00:35:17she thinks she's hired genius behind vale hospital's groundbreaking procedures
00:35:22that's why she had the audacity to declare war on you
00:35:24impressive son
00:35:26you're finally showing some of the leadership qualities
00:35:29uh i've been waiting to see out of you
00:35:31i think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division
00:35:37dad this this is everything i've worked for thank you
00:35:41we'll get to work immediately
00:35:43we're going to expose heart medical center
00:35:47for the low-grade institution it truly is
00:35:50their humiliation will be quick and absolute
00:35:53i won't let you down
00:35:55darling
00:35:57surgical innovation is the future of vale
00:36:01preston only got his mba last year
00:36:03do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program
00:36:07i would never take a risk like this if preston was our only asset
00:36:11remember we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon
00:36:17you mean the surgeon that saved my life
00:36:19doctor adrian marksman
00:36:21exactly
00:36:23and all i need to do
00:36:25is stay hands off
00:36:27and let him exercise his extraordinary talents
00:36:31as long as adrian is with vale hospital heart medical center has no chance of competing
00:36:39not only that vivian fell for preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster
00:36:45dr david marksman
00:36:49what we have to do now
00:36:51is sit back
00:36:53and watch her would-be empire
00:36:55crumble
00:37:01so
00:37:03now that you've seen the surgical department
00:37:07what do you think
00:37:09it's not bad
00:37:11it's a small team but they're talented
00:37:13what you've built here
00:37:15it's impressive viv
00:37:17it's good to see you again after all these years adrian
00:37:21you too
00:37:23we need to expand
00:37:25it's too small for what i'm planning
00:37:27also
00:37:29i heard you weren't the only surgeon preston vale fired
00:37:37we have all the angles figured out don't you
00:37:39and i always find the best one
00:37:41i'm gonna start recruiting
00:37:51good
00:37:53the faster we rise

00:38:31mr vale i uh
00:38:33is there an issue with that
00:38:35no absolutely not
00:38:37no absolutely not
00:38:39the budget for innovation is astronomical
00:38:41and president vale has already handed control to his son
00:38:45if i oversee these procedures
00:38:47i could divert significant resources to my personal research
00:38:51mr vale you can trust me completely
00:38:54i am precisely the right man for the job
00:38:57you
00:38:59preston we have a catastrophe on our hands
00:39:01two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously
00:39:04the department can't possibly maintain its caseload
00:39:06what
00:39:07they both resigned at once what was their explanation
00:39:09they refused to disclose their reasons
00:39:11but there's talk they were recruited by a former vale physician
00:39:13along with the three other surgeons you fired before
00:39:16former physician adrian marksman this has his saboteur signature all over it
00:39:21what's our contingency plan
00:39:23the surgical department is severely understaffed
00:39:25if any more surgeons leave patients will suffer
00:39:28hey everybody needs to remain calm
00:39:31you still have me
00:39:34i can rebuild this department

00:40:58actually the whole world
00:41:01we're eager to begin dr heart
00:41:03well welcome to heart medical center
00:41:07i am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us
00:41:10but i do need to be transparent
00:41:13we have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge vail hospital's dominance
00:41:20we have no fear dr heart
00:41:22with adrian leading our team we'll be three steps ahead of anything vail attempts
00:41:27but vail has already implemented adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols
00:41:32yeah about that
00:41:34it's a preliminary version
00:41:35if they continue to develop this approach without modification
00:41:38then what
00:41:39a lot of deaths
00:41:40a lot of lawsuits
00:41:42a lot of patients could be harmed
00:41:44or worse
00:41:45these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement
00:41:50those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training
00:41:54without that foundation
00:41:56we're talking about serious complications
00:41:59preventable harm
00:42:00our first priority has to be patient safety
00:42:03we need to perfect these procedures
00:42:05and then we can find a way to prevent vail from continuing with the flawed protocols
00:42:10exactly it's not about competition or pride
00:42:13it's about saving lives
00:42:16we're using our experience with the trial procedures i did at vail to develop next generation surgical techniques eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies
00:42:28even if vail hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new
00:42:33we'll maintain our significant advantage
00:42:36and if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols
00:42:40rest assured
00:42:41their outcomes will deteriorate
00:42:43i don't wish it upon their patients that's for sure
00:42:46remember this moment
00:42:48in this battle for medical supremacy
00:42:50heart medical center will emerge victorious
00:42:53it's 3 a.m.
00:43:03lost track of time again
00:43:06viv you surprised me
00:43:12looks like you could use a nice rub
00:43:15do you mind
00:43:17no
00:43:18i mean
00:43:21yeah
00:43:22will you give all your surgeons

00:43:34adrian i've really really liked you since residency
00:43:39nothing's changed
00:43:41you were our most brilliant resident in the program
00:43:44i never imagined someone like you would like me
00:43:47there was never anyone else that got my attention
00:43:49only you
00:43:51only you
00:43:54but you were completely oblivious
00:43:56and then you just
00:43:58vanished from the program
00:44:00well i left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in switzerland
00:44:04i know
00:44:07your talent was extraordinary even then
00:44:10back then i made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday
00:44:15you know when i established heart medical center
00:44:18my first priority was recruiting you
00:44:21but that manipulative tyrant nelson bale
00:44:25had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives
00:44:30i understand now
00:44:38so
00:44:40should we
00:44:42pick up where we left off in residency
00:44:44you're the boss

00:45:45we already work late hours
00:45:48living together

00:46:51you are completely worthless as surgeons
00:46:58dr marksman
00:47:00the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate
00:47:05we need at least six months to properly master
00:47:09six months
00:47:10you have 72 hours
00:47:12and i expect hourly updates on my desk
00:47:15sir brushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially
00:47:20fatal complication
00:47:22three days
00:47:23then you don't get one hour more
00:47:25go

00:51:57you've earned more than just respect here Adrian

00:52:42do you really think that this is acceptable
00:52:46I give you one simple task and you screw it up
00:52:49how the hell did either of you even finish residency
00:52:53Vail General Hospital is the gold standard
00:52:58and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:53:01if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:53:04you're both gone
00:53:05is that clear
00:53:06yes sir
00:53:08this is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team
00:53:12go
00:53:14Mr. Vail what a what a what a surprise
00:53:23cut the bullshit marksman
00:53:25we're on schedule or not
00:53:27of course
00:53:28we're
00:53:29we're just refining the final stages
00:53:32yeah
00:53:33everything is under control
00:53:35good
00:53:36there's a problem I expect to hear it from you
00:53:38with no cover-ups
00:53:39of course sir
00:53:40Mr. Vail
00:53:44not now
00:53:45go get me the latest performance reports
00:53:47it uh
00:53:52looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:53:55on our lovely administrator here
00:53:56don't worry
00:53:58when Preston makes me chief medical officer
00:54:01I'm gonna need someone
00:54:02flexible in my corner
00:54:04I was back at the winning team Dr. Marksman
00:54:07today Vail hospital officially launched
00:54:16its highly anticipated next generation surgical program
00:54:20this cutting-edge approach to surgical care
00:54:23is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:54:25especially as heart medical's competing program
00:54:28was released on the same day
00:54:30the question now is
00:54:32who will define the future of surgery
00:54:34relax Mr. Vail
00:54:37heart medical doesn't stand a chance
00:54:39I hope you're right
00:54:42for your sake
00:54:44didn't you say that uh
00:54:48if the rollout went well
00:54:50that you'd make me
00:54:51chief medical officer
00:54:52it's not a success
00:54:54yet
00:54:55enjoy tonight's launch party
00:54:59because if our results
00:55:00don't outshine heart medical
00:55:02it'll be the last thing
00:55:03you have to celebrate
00:55:03for a long time
00:55:05Dr. Hurt we uh have a problem
00:55:19Vail hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:55:23that soon?
00:55:24they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:55:28it's a good thing we're ahead of
00:55:31you're saying we're ready
00:55:34why would I lie
00:55:36we've been tracking Vail's every move
00:55:38let him celebrate
00:55:40it's just gonna backfire
00:55:41how exactly does that work in our favor?
00:55:44Vail do you remember what I told you
00:55:47when you first brought me here
00:55:48Preston Vail's rushing this
00:55:52he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:55:54and?
00:55:55their model's flawed
00:55:56if they keep moving forward
00:55:58without realizing
00:55:59their structural failure
00:56:00and their approach
00:56:00we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:56:04and what about when it falls apart?
00:56:06then heart medical takes over
00:56:07as the future of modern surgery
00:56:09so you're saying
00:56:11that Vail hospital
00:56:12has been refining
00:56:13the prototype surgical method
00:56:14that you designed
00:56:15it's the only way
00:56:16they could have gotten
00:56:17this far this fast
00:56:18they're using an early draft
00:56:20full of mistakes
00:56:21that I won't make again
00:56:22they don't even realize
00:56:24the cracks in their foundation
00:56:25that actually
00:56:27makes perfect sense
00:56:29which means
00:56:31we've already won
00:56:32well this is a big day for us
00:56:35we should celebrate
00:56:36what do you have in mind?

00:59:01The experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:59:04You did it.
00:59:06No, we didn't.
00:59:10Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vale's launch party. Pronto.
00:59:14You're already late.
00:59:15I need a change then.
00:59:16You don't have time.
00:59:17Where's Vivian?
00:59:19Taking care of something.
00:59:21She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:59:25Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vale Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:59:32What the fuck?
00:59:33You're my date and you're wasted.
00:59:34I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:59:35Yeah.
00:59:36God knows why I chose you but I did.
00:59:37So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up for God's sakes.
00:59:44What the fuck?
00:59:45You're my date and you're wasted.
00:59:46I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:59:47Yeah.
00:59:48God knows why I chose you but I did.
00:59:49So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up for God's sakes.
00:59:54Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
01:00:21It's giving orderly sheep.
01:00:26Maybe he's here to bust tables.
01:00:30What are you doing at our launch party?
01:00:32You weren't invited.
01:00:33You so sure about that?
01:00:34I mean, look at you.
01:00:35This is a black tie.
01:00:36I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
01:00:41Look who crawled in from the gutter.
01:00:44The found surgeon.
01:00:46The fraud.
01:00:47The nobody.
01:00:49You showed up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
01:00:52Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the low lives.
01:00:55Guess I need to fire them too.
01:00:57Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
01:01:00Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:01:02What are you trying to say?
01:01:04I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:01:13I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:01:17Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:01:20A genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:01:23You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:01:25Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:01:27When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:01:34What are you talking about?
01:01:37Identity theft?
01:01:38Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:01:41Yours?
01:01:42Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:01:45If you don't got it, just act like you do.
01:01:48Speaking from experience.
01:01:50Look around you.
01:01:53This is the elite among the elite.
01:01:56The best of the best in the medical field.
01:01:58Just because you waltz in here and your dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:02:03Good.
01:02:04I'm glad.
01:02:05Because you're all beneath me.
01:02:07Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
01:02:10That's enough.
01:02:11Guards!
01:02:13This former employee is threatening us.
01:02:15Kick him out.
01:02:17Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:02:19I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:02:24What are you dumbasses doing?
01:02:26Grab him!
01:02:41Preston!
01:02:43What the hell is this?
01:02:45Dad.
01:02:46Relax.
01:02:47This twat came in uninvited.
01:02:50I was just kicking him out.
01:02:51Guards!
01:02:52Remove him immediately.
01:02:53President Vale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:02:56You get out of my way!
01:02:58Dad, what are you doing?
01:02:59This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:03:04You are such a fool!
01:03:07Dad!
01:03:08What are you doing?
01:03:10Open your eyes, Preston.
01:03:12This man that you tried so hard to kick out?
01:03:15He is...
01:03:17You are a...
01:03:19Disgraced!
01:03:20Dad!
01:03:22My hospital meant something and...
01:03:25You turned it into a...
01:03:27Into a...
01:03:29Dad!
01:03:34Dad!
01:03:37President Vale.
01:03:38Fuck away from my dad!
01:03:39Are you out of your mind?
01:03:40He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:03:42Oh, yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:03:45I'll die before I trust you two.
01:03:47Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:03:48David!
01:03:49David!
01:03:50David!
01:03:51It's cold!
01:03:52It's cold!
01:03:57Can't think of what to do next?
01:03:59Blanking?
01:04:00Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:04:01Shut up!
01:04:03Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:04:05This is ridiculous!
01:04:06I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:04:09Why are you just standing there?
01:04:10Do something!
01:04:13What's the matter, David?
01:04:14If you need help, just ask.
01:04:17All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:04:19Right here.
01:04:20Right now.
01:04:22I can't blow my cover, but...
01:04:24What if I kill him?
01:04:27I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:04:29I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:04:30I did medical school on Zoom.
01:04:33David, this is a matter of life and death.
01:04:37Let it go.
01:04:39I...
01:04:41I...
01:04:43I can't.
01:04:45I can't do this.
01:04:47Okay, I can't.
01:04:49I can't do this.
01:04:51I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:54That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:57That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:59He stole it from me.
01:05:07Okay, okay.
01:05:09I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:05:12Okay.
01:05:16Okay.
01:05:17I got it, I got it.
01:05:19Here, take it, take it, take it.
01:05:21Okay.
01:05:22Alright, hold his head.
01:05:23Good.
01:05:24Tilt it back.
01:05:25And apply pressure...
01:05:26Here.
01:05:28Okay.
01:05:29Okay.
01:05:30Okay.
01:05:31Okay.
01:05:32Okay.
01:05:33Great.
01:05:34Four.
01:05:35Oh my God.
01:05:37What happened?
01:05:38Oh.
01:05:40Oh.
01:05:42Oh.
01:05:43Oh.
01:05:44Oh.
01:05:45Oh.
01:05:47Oh.
01:05:48Oh.
01:05:49Oh.
01:05:50Thank God.
01:05:51What happened?
01:05:52Oh.
01:05:53Oh.
01:05:54Oh.
01:05:56Oh.
01:05:57Oh.
01:05:58Oh.
01:05:59That's my guy.
01:06:00Oh.
01:06:01Oh.
01:06:02Oh.
01:06:03Oh.
01:06:04Oh.
01:06:05Oh.
01:06:06Oh.
01:06:07Oh.
01:06:08Oh.
01:06:09Oh.
01:06:10Oh.
01:06:11Oh.
01:06:12Would you like me the word.
01:06:13Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:06:15That maneuver...
01:06:17That notebook.
01:06:18It's mine.
01:06:19Then tell them!
01:06:24Where's he going?
01:06:25Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program...
01:06:28...at another fake hospital.
01:06:30Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:06:35Hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life.
01:06:36That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:06:44What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:06:46He's delusional.
01:06:48Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:06:51The notebook he used to save your father.
01:06:54That's mine.
01:06:56My handwriting, my theories.
01:06:59Just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:07:02I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:07:07And when it fails, then it will.
01:07:12You're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:07:14The patients will.
01:07:15You can't prove that.
01:07:17Not yet.
01:07:18But you can't fake medicine.
01:07:22Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:07:28Our three's vitals just dropped.
01:07:29We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:07:31Second patient today.
01:07:32Same issue.
01:07:33Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:07:36These techniques aren't viable.
01:07:37The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:07:40I mean, come on.
01:07:42Tonight proves it.
01:07:43We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:07:53I'll be right back.
01:07:55Just coordinating with the team.
01:07:59Talk to me.
01:08:00The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again.
01:08:03This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:08:08Use the compression step.
01:08:10That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:08:12We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:08:16Look, just follow the notes.
01:08:17I designed those techniques for one-on-one guidance.
01:08:24Not mass implementation.
01:08:26Without calibration.
01:08:28It's unstable.
01:08:29It's dangerous.
01:08:30They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:08:34Now people are paying for it.
01:08:35All good?
01:08:38Of course.
01:08:40Just routine coordination.
01:08:41Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:08:45Your surgical program is failing.
01:08:47Patients are suffering.
01:08:48You've been out of the field for months.
01:08:51You wouldn't know.
01:08:52Yeah, I would know.
01:08:53Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:08:56And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:09:01Oh, shit.
01:09:08Oh, yes.
01:09:08This is Dr. Marksman.
01:09:10Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:09:14Okay, listen very carefully.
01:09:16Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:09:25No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial legation,
01:09:32followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:09:39Yes.
01:09:41Yes.
01:09:44How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:09:47His whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:09:50You stole his methods.
01:09:51This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:09:57Uh, that's a lie.
01:09:59Then prove me wrong.
01:10:00Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:10:05Why would we believe anything he says?
01:10:08He was fired.
01:10:09Humiliated.
01:10:10You're right, I was fired.
01:10:12And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:10:17You know what?
01:10:18This is pathetic.
01:10:19He's just jealous.
01:10:20He missed his shot.
01:10:22Is that what you told yourself?
01:10:24When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:10:27Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:10:32I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:10:34I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:10:48And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:10:56Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:10:58You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, and you fired him.
01:11:04The one person who could make them safe.
01:11:08Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:11:11Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:11:14This hospital was built on trust and integrity, and you've disgraced them both.
01:11:19Your father nearly died because of your ego, because of his lies.
01:11:27You saved me.
01:11:29You saved Nelson.
01:11:30And now you can save Vale.
01:11:33I tried to warn you all.
01:11:35No one listened.
01:11:36Well, they're listening now.
01:11:38You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two, and probably even more than me.
01:11:45It was a mistake to let you go.
01:11:49Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.
01:11:54They weren't ready.
01:11:56They needed supervision, precision, development.
01:12:00Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:12:04Oh, you can't prove that.
01:12:07Security footage.
01:12:11Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.
01:12:15Already submitted to the board.
01:12:18I built on what he started.
01:12:21Okay?
01:12:22I didn't steal.
01:12:24I enhanced it.
01:12:26Then why were patients about to die?
01:12:29You falsified rollout readiness?
01:12:31He did more than that.
01:12:33He put lives at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:12:39We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:12:42This is absurd.
01:12:44This was supposed to be our night.
01:12:46Oh, it's your night.
01:12:48Just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:12:50You lied to me.
01:12:52I didn't lie.
01:12:53I simplified the truth.
01:12:55Simplify?
01:12:56You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:13:01You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:13:04You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:13:07That's malpractice.
01:13:08They worked.
01:13:10Nelson's alive.
01:13:11Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:13:13Yeah, because of me.
01:13:14Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:13:20Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:13:22Wait.
01:13:23These really are your techniques.
01:13:25I tested them for years.
01:13:27It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:13:30Not without training.
01:13:32You're rewriting history?
01:13:34No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:13:36Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.
01:13:41And without him, it won't.
01:13:43This is absurd!
01:13:45You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:13:48He's not disgraced, son.
01:13:50You are.
01:13:52You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:13:55And then when your ego wasn't enough, you propped up this fraud.
01:14:02Taking his side, Dad?
01:14:04I'm your son.
01:14:06I'm taking the side of truth.
01:14:09And so will the board.
01:14:10We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:14:13Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:14:18Suspended?
01:14:19No, no, no.
01:14:19You can't do that.
01:14:20You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:14:23We understand the liability.
01:14:24That's enough.
01:14:27Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Marksman, come with us.
01:14:32Dad, you're not going to let them drag me out like this.
01:14:35I'm your son.
01:14:36No.
01:14:37Don't you touch me.
01:14:38You're not a child.
01:14:39Hey, Dad!
01:14:40I'm your side-built base!
01:14:42I'm just giving you some son of a...
01:14:43Get out of my way!
01:14:44Do something!
01:14:45Get off me!
01:14:45I'm just...
01:14:46I'm not a child!
01:14:48You're not my responsibility!
01:14:56Adrian, please.
01:14:58I made a mistake.
01:14:59I see that now.
01:15:00I should have believed in you.
01:15:02I should have stood by you.
01:15:04You were right about everything.
01:15:08Just give me a second chance.
01:15:11Please.
01:15:12I still love you.
01:15:16Love?
01:15:16You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:15:20You don't understand.
01:15:22I thought he was finished.
01:15:23I thought he had nothing left.
01:15:26So you sold him out.
01:15:28Mocked him.
01:15:30Over and over again.
01:15:32I was scared.
01:15:33I...
01:15:33I didn't know what to do.
01:15:35Oh, you knew.
01:15:36You just didn't care.
01:15:38Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:15:42Please.
01:15:44Say something.
01:15:45Anything.
01:15:48You had your chance, Fiona.
01:15:50And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:15:54You always belonged in my operating room.
01:16:05And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:16:11The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.
01:16:16And David will never go near another patient again.
01:16:20We're rebuilding.
01:16:22And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:16:29I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:16:31You had your chance, too.
01:16:33I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:16:36Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:16:39Well, Adrian 2.0.
01:16:42I'm not coming back.
01:16:45You're choosing her?
01:16:47Our rival?
01:16:49You arrogant little ingrate.
01:16:51I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:16:55Just typical.
01:16:57Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?
01:17:03She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:17:07Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:17:09Get me out of here.
01:17:12Now!
01:17:13No!
01:17:30Karma has good timing.
01:17:34Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:17:38We have lives to save.
01:17:39Hey!
01:17:41Not so fast, mister.
01:17:43Hotshot genius surgeon.
01:17:46I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:17:51Now?
01:17:52We'll just spend a time like the present.
01:18:02This is what victory tastes like.
01:18:04It's not bad.
01:18:06I need a second opinion.
01:18:10Well, I've got all night.
01:18:11And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:18:17Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:18:20You're already exceeding expectations.
01:18:23But I am very thorough.
01:18:32Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:18:35Besides meeting you, of course.
01:18:37Besides being you, of course.
01:18:38Besides being you, of course.
01:18:39was exposed to the past, the last year before the past?
01:18:43I'm not leaving but I'm hungry.
01:18:44I'm not leaving.
01:18:45I'm not leaving.
01:18:47Where is my best friend?
01:18:48I'm going to go home.
01:18:49I'm not leaving you.
01:18:50You're not leaving but I'm not leaving.
01:18:52You're not leaving.
01:18:53I'm leaving.
01:18:54Not leaving.
01:18:55You're not leaving.
01:18:56You're leaving.
01:18:57I'm leaving for that time.
01:18:58You're leaving.
01:18:59I'm leaving.
