00:00:00...patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:00:03The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team,
00:00:08their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:12Patients crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:15All the hours are full. We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:18Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:20I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:22We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:00:30We need a hand?
00:00:43A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:46Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level 1 trauma like this.
00:00:50Patients' pressure is dropping.
00:00:52Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patients' yours.
00:01:00Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:03Whipple? For trauma? That's insane.
00:01:06Trust me.
00:01:08Medicine bomb scissors.
00:01:11Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:15It's that procedure with the towers. The patient won't survive.
00:01:18Obicottery.
00:01:22Watch.
00:01:22He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:31But waiting. It's under control.
00:01:33But how did he...
00:01:36Silk suture.
00:01:42Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:01:49I've never seen anything like this.
00:01:50I'm almost done.
00:02:00This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:12Jesus, Adrian.
00:02:13What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:15I thought you were just a murky surgeon, but...
00:02:17That? That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:21Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:02:23What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:26Wait.
00:02:27I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:02:29who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:02:33Is that you?
00:02:40Final suture.
00:02:41Mr. Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:02:49Doctor.
00:02:51The nurses.
00:02:52They said you did it.
00:02:54And you...
00:02:55You actually did.
00:02:59Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:02Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable,
00:03:05that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:03:05You saved my Catherine.
00:03:10She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:03:13Name your price for whatever it is.
00:03:14We need you at Vail.
00:03:16My hospital.
00:03:19Look, I'll explain later.
00:03:20Right now we have three critical patients
00:03:22that need specialized procedures.
00:03:24It's going to take hours.
00:03:26Y'all should go home.
00:03:27Get some rest.
00:03:28I'll take over from here.
00:03:30Okay.
00:03:32Good work, everyone.
00:03:33Good work, everyone.
00:03:35You're all stable.
00:04:04Every single one of them.
00:04:07Stabilized.
00:04:11Oh, sun's coming up.
00:04:14You must have operated all night.
00:04:16You're a machine.
00:04:17Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:20All right.
00:04:21It's time for some much-needed shut-eye.
00:04:23Hey, you.
00:04:42Hey, yourself.
00:04:43I've been operating all night.
00:04:46I saved every single patient from that pile-up.
00:04:50What you did was extraordinary.
00:04:52How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:04:56Because I know you.
00:04:58Better than anyone.
00:04:59You're a favorite.
00:05:05Your favorite?
00:05:07You remember.
00:05:09Where's he did?
00:05:10You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:15I know it's only been a month, but...
00:05:18It just feels different.
00:05:20It's the third time this week.
00:05:29Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:31Hmm.
00:05:33So who's this marksman guy?
00:05:35His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:36Sure.
00:05:37I thought he was just another new hire.
00:05:39I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:05:42With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:05:45What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:05:55Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:00Who is this guy?
00:06:03Preston Bale.
00:06:04Preston Bale's son.
00:06:05Harvard MBA.
00:06:06He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:09who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:14I'm sorry.
00:06:14Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:20Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:22Sir, about that...
00:06:23Save it.
00:06:25Parker.
00:06:26You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:30You're fired.
00:06:31Clear out your office.
00:06:33New management means new standards.
00:06:35It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:06:40Ahem.
00:06:41Attention.
00:06:42Everybody's attention now.
00:06:43If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:06:49No complications, no deaths.
00:06:53This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:06:55Who does he think he is?
00:06:58Dr. Health?
00:06:59What is this?
00:07:03Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:05Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:07This is a hospital.
00:07:10We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:15That was for my residency direction.
00:07:17Oh, cry me a ripper.
00:07:19Maybe 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.
00:07:25You're fired.
00:07:26Excuse me?
00:07:27Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop, just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:32Yes, sir.
00:07:33Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:07:37That was good.
00:07:38Let's go.
00:07:39Well, well, well.
00:07:45What do we have here?
00:07:47Sleeping after a shift?
00:07:49Rise and shine, superstar.
00:07:55Did I order a wake-up call?
00:07:57No, you didn't.
00:07:59But here's one anyway.
00:08:00You are fired.
00:08:02Are you serious?
00:08:06You're firing me?
00:08:08Do you need me to draw your diagram, doctor?
00:08:11Well, no.
00:08:11There must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:14Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:16He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:21What's he make?
00:08:22$700,000.
00:08:24That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:26$700?
00:08:27Are you insane?
00:08:28Are you giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:08:32This hospital is being scammed.
00:08:34I just worked all night.
00:08:36I'm just taking a nap.
00:08:37Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:08:40Seem lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:08:43What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:08:46Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam.
00:08:51Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:08:55My career comes first.
00:08:57Boy, bye.
00:08:58There must be some clerical error.
00:09:01His credentials.
00:09:03Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:06Fiona?
00:09:08Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
00:09:16Clear out your office.
00:09:17Clear out your locker.
00:09:19Get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:22This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:23You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:24You don't get rid of that, you're right.
00:09:25I see.
00:09:35Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:09:38You don't understand.
00:09:39He's the one who...
00:09:40Didn't I fire you two already?
00:09:42Beat it.
00:09:43Vail is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:09:45Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:09:47I understand.
00:10:06Hospital politics.
00:10:07Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:11Keep me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:14I'll be waiting.
00:10:23You care to explain that little exchange?
00:10:25If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:10:36Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:10:38I intend to wield it.
00:10:40Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:10:43Your little scam artist situation shit?
00:10:46No, Preston.
00:10:47He means nothing to me.
00:10:49Really.
00:10:49I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:10:51Let's be clear about your future here.
00:10:54Do you want to be with the nobody, collecting unemployment checks, or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:11:04The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:08Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:21Hey, Dad.
00:11:22What's wrong?
00:11:22Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:11:25She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:11:29And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:11:32Of course, what is it?
00:11:33That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:11:36Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:11:39Dr. Marksman?
00:11:40Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:11:43Get out of my hospital.
00:11:44Oh, Christ.
00:11:46The resident I just fired?
00:11:48Preston?
00:11:49Are you there?
00:11:51Check the staff roster.
00:11:53See if we have another marksman working for us here.
00:11:57I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:12:00He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:02And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:07The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:10Ah, yes.
00:12:16I see now.
00:12:16There's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:20Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:12:23Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:12:27Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:12:29Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:12:31That's our man.
00:12:32There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:12:36Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:12:38Do me a favor.
00:12:39Fire him.
00:12:41Already done, Dad.
00:12:42I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:12:45Thank God.
00:12:46Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:12:48Good work, son.
00:12:50I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:12:54Just take care of Mom, all right?
00:12:56I got everything else under control.
00:13:00See?
00:13:04Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:08Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:11Mr. Vale, sir.
00:13:13Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:15Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:16The six-car pileup.
00:13:17You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:18What's your point?
00:13:19ER is crashing.
00:13:21We've no one left who can handle it.
00:13:28Give me the situation.
00:13:29Now.
00:13:31Six critical traumas.
00:13:32Three more incoming.
00:13:33Multiple crush injuries.
00:13:35Arterial bleed, sir.
00:13:37We're losing patients.
00:13:38What are our options?
00:13:40There might be one solution.
00:13:41Well, spit it out.
00:13:43Dr. Marksman.
00:13:44He handled four critical traumas along last night.
00:13:46If we can get him back here.
00:13:48Marksman.
00:13:49Right.
00:13:49That's the end we need.
00:13:50Fiona, call him.
00:13:51Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:13:53The genius surgeon.
00:13:54The one I didn't fire.
00:13:56Keep up.
00:13:56Keep up.
00:13:56What the hell?
00:14:02Where did all this stuff go?
00:14:04Idiot left his research notes.
00:14:20Modified trauma protocol.
00:14:25Wait.
00:14:27These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:14:30Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:14:32Hello?
00:14:37Dr. Marksman.
00:14:38Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:14:41Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster motion waiting.
00:14:44I'm on my way.
00:14:49With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:14:53They'll make me department head.
00:14:55And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:02Well?
00:15:04Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:06Thank God.
00:15:06Thank God.
00:15:06Thank God.
00:15:14Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:15I don't know.
00:15:17About your loyalty.
00:15:19Adrian meant nothing.
00:15:21I was using him to advance my career.
00:15:23In my future.
00:15:25That's my girl.
00:15:33Beyond a shift in an hour ago,
00:15:35the boss's son is up to something.
00:15:39To hell with this.
00:15:40I'm going.
00:15:44Piece of shit!
00:15:59Get your hand on my girl!
00:16:03Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!
00:16:05You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:16:10You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:16:13I can choose who I want.
00:16:15And I don't want a disgraced surgeon with no future.
00:16:18You pathetic loser.
00:16:34We're done, Adrian.
00:16:36Ancient history.
00:16:38Are you serious?
00:16:40Just like that.
00:16:41Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, Sam.
00:16:46Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:16:48Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:16:50I need someone with a future.
00:16:52Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying!
00:16:58Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:01It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:17:03Oh, look at us, Adrian.
00:17:09I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:17:11And you?
00:17:15Just a slacker.
00:17:16And scrubs.
00:17:18You're washed up, marksman.
00:17:20Perhaps try nursing?
00:17:21I hear they're always hiring.
00:17:24Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:17:26I thought we could build a family together.
00:17:30Get over yourself.
00:17:32You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:17:36President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:17:42We're done.
00:17:43I'm not done.
00:17:45But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:17:50You can count on that.
00:17:54No, no, no.
00:17:55Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:17:57Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:03Who authorizes you to be here?
00:18:05Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:18:08we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident.
00:18:11And the situation is completely under control.
00:18:14You're Dr. Marksman.
00:18:16Ah, yes.
00:18:17The very same.
00:18:18My father mentioned you're exceptional credentials.
00:18:21Harvard Medical Hall.
00:18:23These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:18:29As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:18:33Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:18:37He was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table.
00:18:42Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:18:52Dr. Hart.
00:18:54Incredible news.
00:18:56Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:18:59he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:19:01When?
00:19:04Less than an hour ago.
00:19:05Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:19:08Huh.
00:19:10Amazing.
00:19:11I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his prize surgeon
00:19:15was fired by his submental son.
00:19:18With our respect, we're still establishing our reputation?
00:19:23Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:19:26Well, I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:19:29Full department autonomy.
00:19:31Research funding.
00:19:33State-of-the-art facilities.
00:19:35And if necessary,
00:19:37my personal involvement.
00:19:40His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:19:44Have my car brought round.
00:19:46I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:19:49And Adrian Marksman,
00:19:50he's leaving with me.
00:19:51Oh, feezus.
00:19:59What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:20:01Oh, don't insult our intelligence.
00:20:03A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:20:05The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:20:07Yet you stand there denying it.
00:20:09This is crazy.
00:20:10You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:20:13And when a complication occurs,
00:20:14which happened in this hospital
00:20:16under your incompetent leadership,
00:20:19you blame me?
00:20:22The collective medical knowledge in this room
00:20:24isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:20:27If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be,
00:20:29you would still have a job.
00:20:32I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine
00:20:34with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:20:35Security, please detain him.
00:20:43What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:20:45Either confess to medical malfeasance
00:20:47or they'll escort you to the police
00:20:49for criminal negligence.
00:20:51Adrian, I never realized you were capable
00:20:54of endangering patients.
00:20:56What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:20:58You better confess now
00:20:59or we'll do everything in the power
00:21:01to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:21:04Come on.
00:21:05Go ahead.
00:21:06Do your worst.
00:21:08Let's see if a single piece of evidence
00:21:10holds up in front of the medical board.
00:21:11You really underestimate my family's influence,
00:21:16don't you?
00:21:18Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here
00:21:19can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:21:22Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:21:25After all, he'll be a danger to his patients
00:21:27wherever he goes.
00:21:28Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:21:31Not after what he did to our patients.
00:21:34I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:21:37As of this moment,
00:21:38Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted
00:21:40from Vail Hospital
00:21:41and every medical institute in the country.
00:21:44Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:21:46Do you know what that means?
00:21:47It means that you will never practice medicine
00:21:50in this country again.
00:21:51I have one question before I go.
00:21:56Does your father know you fired me?
00:21:58My father's the one who asked me to fire you,
00:22:00you dipshit.
00:22:03You thought you were some brilliant surgical god,
00:22:06didn't you?
00:22:08Security, remove this criminal
00:22:09from hospital property immediately.
00:22:11Immediately.
00:22:12Yes, doctor.
00:22:13Right away, sir.
00:22:16That's quite enough.
00:22:21Let him go.
00:22:31Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position
00:22:34as chief of surgical innovation
00:22:36at Hart Medical Center.
00:22:40I know you.
00:22:42You're Vivian Hart,
00:22:43the surgical upstar
00:22:44from that medical clinic across town.
00:22:46That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you,
00:22:49Mr. Vail.
00:22:50Vivian, I haven't seen you
00:22:52since the John Hopkins Symposium
00:22:53like four or five years ago.
00:22:55What are you doing here?
00:22:56Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon
00:22:58in the country, of course.
00:23:01Wait.
00:23:02Are you seriously suggesting
00:23:03this negligent doctor has value?
00:23:06He was sleeping during rounds.
00:23:08Is this how Vail Hospital
00:23:09discards its exceptional talent?
00:23:12Your father built this institution's reputation
00:23:14of medical excellence,
00:23:16not petty politics.
00:23:18Dr. Hart,
00:23:20with all due respect...
00:23:22This is a conversation
00:23:23between medical directors.
00:23:24Someone in your position
00:23:25should recognize
00:23:26when to maintain silence.
00:23:28Dr. Hart,
00:23:28I must inform you
00:23:29that Dr. Marksman
00:23:30represents a serious liability.
00:23:33He compromised patient safety and...
00:23:35I don't believe I requested
00:23:36your medical opinion,
00:23:37Dr....
00:23:38Marksman.
00:23:39David Marksman.
00:23:40I have neither time
00:23:41nor interest
00:23:42in your assessment.
00:23:43After he
00:23:45decided to go to sleep,
00:23:47we had a critical
00:23:48surgical complication.
00:23:50His negligence
00:23:51led to the problem.
00:23:52His actions
00:23:53not only endangered patients,
00:23:54it compromised
00:23:55my hospital's reputation.
00:23:57Are you really willing
00:23:59to defend someone
00:24:00who violates
00:24:01the Hippocratic Oath?
00:24:02Did you actually
00:24:03consult with your father
00:24:04before dismissing
00:24:05Dr. Marksman?
00:24:05Of course I consulted
00:24:08my father.
00:24:11He's the one
00:24:11who specifically mentioned
00:24:12his dangerous
00:24:13surgical shortcuts
00:24:14and inflated reputation.
00:24:16Dangerous shortcuts?
00:24:18Is that what
00:24:19President Bale really said?
00:24:20His exact words were,
00:24:22remove him
00:24:22at first opportunity.
00:24:24President Bale
00:24:25was the one
00:24:25that recruited me.
00:24:26This makes absolutely
00:24:26no sense.
00:24:27Please, Adrian.
00:24:28The president
00:24:29wouldn't personally recruit
00:24:30a mid-level surgeon
00:24:31like you.
00:24:33Those gala invitations
00:24:34were professional
00:24:35courtesy,
00:24:36not genuine respect.
00:24:38Well, if that's
00:24:38the way things work
00:24:39at Vail,
00:24:39I have nothing more
00:24:40to contribute
00:24:41to any of you.
00:24:43Dr. Marksman,
00:24:44would you consider
00:24:45joining Heart Medical Center
00:24:46as our chief of surgery?
00:24:49Well, I've...
00:24:50Full department autonomy,
00:24:52protected research time,
00:24:54a surgical fellowship
00:24:55in your name,
00:24:56and a seven-figure
00:24:57salary package.
00:25:05and cash.
00:25:29Dr. Marksman,
00:25:30I want you to revolutionize
00:25:32our surgery program.
00:25:34Hopefully, this shows you.
00:25:36I mean what I say.
00:25:43Chief of surgery?
00:25:47You're offering all this
00:25:48to a surgeon
00:25:49who can't even keep
00:25:50his eyes open on the job?
00:25:52Dr. Heart,
00:25:53have you completely lost
00:25:54your medical judgment,
00:25:55or are you on drugs?
00:25:56This is absurd.
00:25:58He was a mediocre surgeon
00:25:59here at Vail,
00:26:00and now you're
00:26:01positioning him
00:26:02to lead your entire
00:26:03surgical department?
00:26:06The medical board
00:26:07should review
00:26:07your hiring practices.
00:26:11Vivian,
00:26:11I appreciate
00:26:13your confidence.
00:26:15This isn't about money.
00:26:17Maybe there's something
00:26:18beyond professional
00:26:20opportunity
00:26:20that might interest you.
00:26:22She's offering herself
00:26:23up to him!
00:26:24She can't do that!
00:26:24Are you a doctor
00:26:26or a call girl?
00:26:28At Heart Medical Center,
00:26:29you will be given
00:26:30everything a surgeon
00:26:31of your caliber deserves,
00:26:32including
00:26:33a boss that would do
00:26:35absolutely anything
00:26:36to recognize your value.
00:26:38And I do mean anything,
00:26:39Dr. Marksman.
00:26:43Dr. Heart,
00:26:44for the sake
00:26:45of your own reputation,
00:26:46you need to know
00:26:47that this hack
00:26:47you're so eagerly pursuing
00:26:49has a documented history
00:26:50of negligence.
00:26:52My father
00:26:53confirmed it himself.
00:26:54Is that precisely
00:26:55what Nelson Bale
00:26:56told you?
00:26:57His exact words.
00:26:59Negligence search?
00:27:01What are those?
00:27:04Personal gifts
00:27:05from your father?
00:27:09My fellowship offer?
00:27:11My personal research lab?
00:27:13My surgical team?
00:27:14I'm leaving it all behind.
00:27:16You can tell
00:27:18President Bale
00:27:19that as of this moment,
00:27:20Dr. Marksman
00:27:21has permanently withdrawn
00:27:22from Bale Hospital
00:27:24and all of its
00:27:25affiliated institutions.
00:27:27You know what?
00:27:28Spare us the theatrics,
00:27:29Adrian.
00:27:29You never deserve
00:27:30those privileges
00:27:31in the first place.
00:27:33The medical board
00:27:34is going to see
00:27:34that justice is done.
00:27:36Oh,
00:27:36your stupidity,
00:27:38it's just
00:27:39astonishing.
00:27:40Astonishing.
00:27:41You treat pioneering surgeons
00:27:42like disposable scalpels.
00:27:45This man
00:27:45is a life-saving artist.
00:27:51Dr. Hart,
00:27:52I understand
00:27:53there's some competition
00:27:54between your center
00:27:54and Bale Hospital.
00:27:56Yeah,
00:27:56look,
00:27:57I'll be real.
00:27:58We're struggling
00:27:59to get out
00:27:59from under their shadow.
00:28:00I'd be happy
00:28:01to help you out with that.
00:28:02Take me on,
00:28:03and I'll transform Hart
00:28:05into the number one
00:28:05surgical institution
00:28:06in the country.
00:28:09Look at yourself,
00:28:10Adrian,
00:28:11offering your skills
00:28:12to a struggling clinic.
00:28:13How pathetically desperate.
00:28:16Oh,
00:28:17a backstabbing
00:28:18bottom feeder like you
00:28:19has absolutely no right
00:28:21to judge a surgeon
00:28:21of his caliber.
00:28:22How dare you
00:28:23talk to me like that!
00:28:25Your malpractice
00:28:26has caused
00:28:26catastrophic damage
00:28:28to my hospital's reputation.
00:28:30As the responsible party,
00:28:32I demand that you
00:28:33issue a formal apology
00:28:35to one of the major
00:28:35medical journals
00:28:36and with an explanation
00:28:38to every affected
00:28:39Bale Hospital patient.
00:28:42Refuse me,
00:28:43and I will ensure
00:28:44that the medical board
00:28:45revokes your license
00:28:46permanently.
00:28:47That accusation
00:28:48isn't just baseless.
00:28:49It's absurd.
00:28:50What exactly do you think
00:28:51you're gonna do about it?
00:28:53You've got no choice
00:28:54but to sign this confession.
00:28:55Oh,
00:28:56stop threatening
00:28:56my chief surgeon.
00:28:58If you insist
00:28:59on pursuing this vendetta,
00:29:00have your attorney
00:29:01send a formal complaint
00:29:02to Heart Medical Center
00:29:03will consider it
00:29:04nothing less
00:29:05than a declaration
00:29:06of total war.
00:29:08If it's war you want,
00:29:10I will obliterate
00:29:12your dime store clinic
00:29:13with everything
00:29:13that I've got.
00:29:15Let's go.
00:29:17One more second
00:29:17and this cesspool's
00:29:18gonna make me
00:29:19physically ill.
00:29:19Mr. Bale,
00:29:29don't you waste
00:29:30another precious moment
00:29:31on those
00:29:32secondary practitioners.
00:29:34David,
00:29:35you've proven
00:29:35your loyalty.
00:29:36The chief
00:29:37of surgery position
00:29:38is yours
00:29:39effective immediately.
00:29:41This is,
00:29:41this is extraordinary.
00:29:43I,
00:29:43thank you.
00:29:44I,
00:29:44I,
00:29:45I,
00:29:47I am honored
00:29:47beyond words.
00:29:49Don't forget about me,
00:29:50Preston.
00:29:51Don't worry,
00:29:52babe.
00:29:53You will be
00:29:54thoroughly
00:29:55compensated
00:29:55for your loyalty.
00:29:57How exciting.
00:29:59Mr. Bale,
00:30:00I swear on my medical oath
00:30:02that I will not
00:30:03disappoint you.
00:30:05Mr. Bale,
00:30:06a commuter train derailed.
00:30:07Six critical patients
00:30:08incoming.
00:30:09Dr. Marksman,
00:30:10OR1 now.
00:30:11Now's your time to shine,
00:30:12Dr. Marksman.
00:30:13Shit.
00:30:13Screwed.
00:30:14Adrian's surgical journal
00:30:15with all his
00:30:16proprietary techniques
00:30:17is still in my office.
00:30:18If Preston finds out,
00:30:19I stole it
00:30:20and then couldn't
00:30:21even use it properly.
00:30:23I implemented
00:30:24a groundbreaking
00:30:26surgical protocol
00:30:27that I invented myself.
00:30:28These techniques
00:30:29are revolutionary.
00:30:31I'll walk you through
00:30:31it in detail
00:30:32after the emergency.
00:30:34It's impressive,
00:30:34Dr. Marksman.
00:30:35You've obviously
00:30:36got your own methodology.
00:30:38No need to
00:30:38bore me with the specifics.
00:30:39I trust your brilliance.
00:30:41Keep up the good work,
00:30:42Dr. Marksman.
00:30:43With you leading
00:30:43my surgical team,
00:30:45I can focus
00:30:45on what really matters.
00:30:47Hospital expansion.
00:30:50Again, sir,
00:30:51I'm deeply honored.
00:30:58Behold,
00:30:58Bale Hospital's
00:30:59new chief of surgery.
00:31:01Let's see how
00:31:01all these condescending
00:31:02clowns treat me now.
00:31:03glad you're feeling
00:31:08better, honey.
00:31:09Yeah.
00:31:10Oh, sorry.
00:31:12Who's this?
00:31:16Nelson Bale speaking.
00:31:17President Bale,
00:31:18Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:31:20I am calling
00:31:21to let you know
00:31:22that as of this morning,
00:31:23Hart Medical Center
00:31:24has officially entered
00:31:25the experimental
00:31:26surgery arena.
00:31:28Revolutionary
00:31:28surgical procedures
00:31:29are Bale
00:31:30Hospital's domain.
00:31:31Are you absolutely
00:31:33certain you want
00:31:34to pick this flight?
00:31:35This is merely
00:31:36a professional
00:31:36courtesy call,
00:31:37not an invitation
00:31:38for debate.
00:31:39Now, just...
00:31:42What is that
00:31:46conniving bitch
00:31:47plotting?
00:31:48She knows Adrian
00:31:49is our surgical
00:31:50secret weapon.
00:31:52Why would she
00:31:52deliberately provoke
00:31:54a medical war
00:31:54she has absolutely
00:31:55no chance of winning?
00:32:00Unless...
00:32:01Dad, we've got
00:32:06multiple traumas
00:32:07coming in.
00:32:07Just tell me
00:32:08you didn't fire
00:32:09Dr. Marksman.
00:32:11Dad, relax.
00:32:12Fire the other one.
00:32:14That incompetent
00:32:15slacker resident
00:32:15that you mentioned.
00:32:16Then explain to me
00:32:17why Hart Medical Center
00:32:19believes they can
00:32:20suddenly challenge
00:32:21our surgical supremacy.
00:32:24Because I
00:32:25masterfully led
00:32:26Vivian Hart
00:32:27into a false
00:32:27sense of reality.
00:32:28There's no way
00:32:29a mediocre doctor
00:32:30can revolutionize
00:32:31surgical procedures.
00:32:32I convince Vivian
00:32:34that she's acquired
00:32:35surgical brilliance.
00:32:36But in reality,
00:32:37she's hired our
00:32:38disgraced,
00:32:39discarded loser.
00:32:40So you deliberately
00:32:41manipulated Vivian?
00:32:43She thinks
00:32:43she's hired
00:32:44genius
00:32:45behind Vail Hospital's
00:32:46groundbreaking procedures.
00:32:48That's why she had
00:32:48the audacity
00:32:49to declare war on you.
00:32:50Impressive, son.
00:32:52You're finally showing
00:32:53some of the leadership
00:32:53qualities.
00:32:54I've been waiting
00:32:55to see out of you.
00:32:56I think you're ready
00:32:57to take complete control
00:32:58of our experimental
00:32:59surgical division.
00:33:02Dad, this is
00:33:04everything I've worked
00:33:05for.
00:33:06We'll get to work
00:33:06immediately.
00:33:07We're going to expose
00:33:09Hart Medical Center
00:33:11for the low-grade
00:33:12institution it truly is.
00:33:15Their humiliation
00:33:16will be quick
00:33:17and absolute.
00:33:18I will let you down.
00:33:21Darling,
00:33:21surgical innovation
00:33:23is the future of Vail.
00:33:25Preston only got
00:33:26his MBA last year.
00:33:27Do you really think
00:33:28it's wise to entrust him
00:33:29with our most
00:33:30prestigious program?
00:33:31I would never take
00:33:32a risk like this
00:33:34if Preston was
00:33:35our only asset.
00:33:36Remember,
00:33:37we have the ultimate
00:33:39surgical secret weapon.
00:33:41You mean the surgeon
00:33:42that saved my life?
00:33:43Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:33:45Exactly.
00:33:46And all I need to do
00:33:48is stay hands-off
00:33:50and let him
00:33:52exercise his
00:33:53extraordinary talents.
00:33:55As long as Adrian
00:33:56is with Vail Hospital,
00:33:58Hart Medical Center
00:33:59has no chance
00:34:01of competing.
00:34:02Not only that,
00:34:03Vivian fell
00:34:04for Preston's manipulation
00:34:05and hired that
00:34:06medical disaster
00:34:08Dr. David Marksman.
00:34:11What we have to do now
00:34:12is sit back
00:34:14and watch her
00:34:15would-be empire
00:34:17crumble.
00:34:20So,
00:34:24now that you've seen
00:34:25the surgical department,
00:34:27what do you think?
00:34:30It's not bad.
00:34:31It's a small team,
00:34:32but they're talented.
00:34:33What you've built here,
00:34:35it's impressive, Viv.
00:34:38It's good to see you again
00:34:40after all these years, Adrian.
00:34:42You too.
00:34:43We need to expand.
00:34:45And it's too small
00:34:46for what I'm planning.
00:34:48So,
00:34:49I heard
00:34:51you weren't the only
00:34:51surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:34:57You have all the angles
00:34:58figured out,
00:34:59don't you?
00:35:00And I always find
00:35:00the best one.
00:35:01I'm going to start
00:35:10recruiting.
00:35:12Good.
00:35:14The faster we rise,
00:35:16the more rewarding
00:35:18this partnership becomes.
00:35:19This better be good.
00:35:33Mr. Vail,
00:35:35you wanted to see me?
00:35:36My father
00:35:41has granted me
00:35:42complete authority
00:35:43over our experimental
00:35:43surgical department,
00:35:45given your new position
00:35:46as chief of surgery,
00:35:48appointing you
00:35:49head of innovation.
00:35:50Mr. Vail,
00:35:51I, uh...
00:35:52Is there an issue
00:35:53with that?
00:35:53No,
00:35:54absolutely not.
00:35:55The budget
00:35:56for innovation
00:35:57is astronomical,
00:35:58and President Vail
00:35:59has already handed
00:36:00control to his son?
00:36:02If I oversee
00:36:03these procedures,
00:36:04I could divert
00:36:04significant resources
00:36:05to my personal research.
00:36:08Mr. Vail,
00:36:09you can trust me completely.
00:36:11I am precisely
00:36:11the right man
00:36:12for the job.
00:36:15Preston,
00:36:16we have a catastrophe
00:36:16on our hands.
00:36:17Two attending surgeons
00:36:18just submitted
00:36:18their resignations
00:36:19simultaneously.
00:36:20The department
00:36:20can't possibly
00:36:21maintain its caseload.
00:36:22What?
00:36:23They both resigned
00:36:24at once?
00:36:24What was their explanation?
00:36:25They refused
00:36:26to disclose their reasons.
00:36:27But there's talk
00:36:27they were recruited
00:36:28by a former Vail physician,
00:36:30along with the three
00:36:30other surgeons
00:36:31you fired before.
00:36:32Former physician,
00:36:33Adrian Marksman,
00:36:34this has his
00:36:34saboteur signature
00:36:35all over it.
00:36:36President,
00:36:37what is our
00:36:37contingency plan?
00:36:38The surgical department
00:36:39is severely understaffed.
00:36:41If any more surgeons
00:36:42leave,
00:36:42patients will suffer.
00:36:43Okay, everybody,
00:36:45needs to remain calm.
00:36:47You still have me.
00:36:49I can rebuild
00:36:50this department.
00:36:51Ah, yes.
00:36:52With your stellar reputation,
00:36:54we should be able
00:36:54to get the best
00:36:55of the best.
00:36:56Exactly.
00:36:57So we lost
00:36:57some second-rate talent.
00:36:59Let him go.
00:37:00I'll make some calls
00:37:02to Cedars-Sinai
00:37:04and UCLA.
00:37:06Good work,
00:37:07Marksman.
00:37:11This is working out
00:37:12perfectly.
00:37:13Now I can install
00:37:13my own allies
00:37:14in key positions.
00:37:16Soon,
00:37:16I'll control
00:37:17the entire hospital's
00:37:18medical direction.
00:37:18It's an honor to meet you,
00:37:42Dr. Hart.
00:37:43This is Dr. Parker here.
00:37:48He's a triple board
00:37:49certified surgeon,
00:37:50and soon he'll be
00:37:51the head of trauma surgery.
00:37:53This is Dr. Rhodes,
00:37:54Chen,
00:37:55Rose,
00:37:56and Thomas,
00:37:57all consummate professionals.
00:37:59My most trusted colleagues
00:38:01back at Vail.
00:38:04With this surgical team,
00:38:06Heart Medical
00:38:06can revolutionize
00:38:07surgical care
00:38:08all across the country.
00:38:11Actually,
00:38:11the whole world.
00:38:12We're eager to begin,
00:38:14Dr. Hart.
00:38:14Well,
00:38:15welcome to
00:38:16Hart Medical Center.
00:38:18I am thrilled
00:38:19to have surgeons
00:38:20of your caliber
00:38:20joining us,
00:38:21but I do need
00:38:23to be transparent.
00:38:25We have got
00:38:25considerable ground
00:38:26to cover
00:38:27before we can
00:38:27truly challenge
00:38:28Vail Hospital's
00:38:29dominance.
00:38:30Have no fear,
00:38:30Dr. Hart.
00:38:31With Adrian leading,
00:38:32our team will be
00:38:33three steps ahead
00:38:34of anything
00:38:35Vail attempts.
00:38:36Yes,
00:38:36but Vail
00:38:37has already
00:38:38implemented
00:38:38Adrian's
00:38:39breakthrough
00:38:40surgical procedure
00:38:41protocols.
00:38:42Yeah,
00:38:42about that.
00:38:43It's a preliminary
00:38:44version.
00:38:45If they continue
00:38:45to develop
00:38:46this approach
00:38:46without modification...
00:38:48Then what?
00:38:48A lot of deaths,
00:38:50a lot of lawsuits,
00:38:52a lot of patients
00:38:52could be harmed,
00:38:53or worse.
00:38:54These procedures
00:38:55weren't ready
00:38:55for widespread
00:38:56implementation
00:38:57without proper
00:38:57refinement.
00:38:59Those techniques
00:38:59require precise
00:39:00calibration
00:39:01and specialized
00:39:02training
00:39:02without that
00:39:03foundation.
00:39:04We're talking
00:39:05about serious
00:39:06complications,
00:39:07preventable harm.
00:39:08Our first priority
00:39:09has to be patient
00:39:10safety.
00:39:11We need to
00:39:11perfect these
00:39:12procedures,
00:39:13and then we can
00:39:14find a way
00:39:14to prevent Vail
00:39:15from continuing
00:39:16with the flawed
00:39:17protocols.
00:39:18Exactly.
00:39:18It's not about
00:39:19competition or pride.
00:39:21It's about
00:39:21saving lives.
00:39:25We're using
00:39:25our experience
00:39:26with the trial
00:39:27procedures I did
00:39:28at Vail
00:39:28to develop
00:39:29next-generation
00:39:29surgical techniques
00:39:31eliminating all
00:39:32the previous
00:39:33complications
00:39:33and inefficiencies.
00:39:35Even if Vail
00:39:36Hospital analyzes
00:39:37our fundamental
00:39:38approach and
00:39:39attempts to
00:39:39create something
00:39:40new,
00:39:40we'll maintain
00:39:41our significant
00:39:42advantage.
00:39:44And if they
00:39:44stubbornly continue
00:39:45with their
00:39:46flawed protocols,
00:39:47rest assured,
00:39:48their outcomes
00:39:49will deteriorate.
00:39:50I don't wish it
00:39:51upon their patients,
00:39:52that's for sure.
00:39:53Remember this
00:39:54moment.
00:39:55In this battle
00:39:56for medical
00:39:56supremacy,
00:39:57heart medical
00:39:58center will
00:39:58emerge victorious.
00:40:06It's 3 a.m.
00:40:08Lost track of time
00:40:09again.
00:40:15Viv, you surprised
00:40:16me.
00:40:18Looks like you
00:40:19could use a nice
00:40:20rub.
00:40:21Do you mind?
00:40:22No.
00:40:23I mean, yeah.
00:40:27Will you give
00:40:28all your surgeons
00:40:29massages?
00:40:30Only the ones I
00:40:31really, really
00:40:32like.
00:40:38You really,
00:40:39really like me?
00:40:40Adrienne, I've
00:40:41really, really
00:40:41liked you since
00:40:42residency.
00:40:42nothing's changed.
00:40:45You were our most
00:40:47brilliant resident
00:40:48in the program.
00:40:49I never imagined
00:40:50someone like you
00:40:51would like me.
00:40:51There was never
00:40:52anyone else that
00:40:52got my attention.
00:40:55Only you.
00:40:57But you were
00:40:58completely oblivious.
00:41:00And then you just
00:41:01vanished from the
00:41:02program.
00:41:03Well, I left to
00:41:04join the experimental
00:41:05surgical fellowship
00:41:06in Switzerland.
00:41:07I know.
00:41:10Your talent was
00:41:11extraordinary even
00:41:12then.
00:41:13Back then, I made
00:41:15a promise to myself
00:41:15that we would work
00:41:16together again someday.
00:41:18You know, when I
00:41:19established Heart
00:41:20Medical Center, my
00:41:22first priority was
00:41:22recruiting you.
00:41:24But that manipulative
00:41:26tyrant, Nelson Bale,
00:41:28had already secured
00:41:29your contracts with
00:41:30ridiculous incentives.
00:41:32I understand now.
00:41:34So, should we pick
00:41:44up where we left
00:41:44off in residency?
00:41:46You're the boss.
00:41:47That's right.
00:41:49And as your boss,
00:41:50I say, come home
00:41:52with me.
00:41:53Tonight?
00:41:54You lost everything
00:41:55when Preston fired
00:41:56you.
00:41:57Hospital privileges,
00:41:59research funding,
00:42:01even your hospital
00:42:02subsidized money.
00:42:04apartment.
00:42:06You have literally
00:42:07nowhere else to go
00:42:08tonight.
00:42:09Come with me.
00:42:13Where?
00:42:14My place.
00:42:20All right.
00:42:24I'll admit it.
00:42:26That was the best meal
00:42:27I've had in months.
00:42:28Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:42:30I might start thinking
00:42:31you're easy to please.
00:42:32That just depends
00:42:34on the company.
00:42:35Well, starting tonight,
00:42:37this is your new home.
00:42:39Until the program's
00:42:40fully established,
00:42:41it just makes sense.
00:42:43Are you sure about that?
00:42:44We already work late hours.
00:42:47Living together
00:42:48could get complicated.
00:42:51Well, I like complicated.
00:42:53Keeps things interesting.
00:42:54And where exactly
00:42:57will I be sleeping?
00:42:58Well,
00:43:00my master suite
00:43:03has a
00:43:05California king.
00:43:09Plenty of room.
00:43:11If things ever need to get
00:43:13more
00:43:13collaborative.
00:43:17Really?
00:43:18Relax.
00:43:19I'm only teasing.
00:43:22Tonight,
00:43:22at least
00:43:23common.
00:43:27I'll show you
00:43:28your room.
00:43:31Unless you'd rather
00:43:31have a nightcap
00:43:32than mine.
00:43:40Things can get dangerous.
00:43:41is this pathetic attempt
00:43:47really the best
00:43:48that you can do?
00:43:52You are completely
00:43:54worthless as surgeons.
00:43:55Dr. Marksman,
00:43:56the experimental procedures
00:43:58we're trying to replicate
00:43:59here are
00:43:59extraordinarily intricate.
00:44:01We need at least
00:44:02six months
00:44:03to properly mask...
00:44:04Six months?
00:44:06You have 72 hours,
00:44:07and I expect hourly updates
00:44:09on my desk.
00:44:10Sir,
00:44:10brushing these
00:44:11delicate procedures
00:44:12dramatically increases
00:44:14the possibility
00:44:14of potentially fatal
00:44:16complication.
00:44:16Three days,
00:44:17then you don't get
00:44:18one hour more.
00:44:20Go.
00:44:20Go.
00:44:24Report,
00:44:25Dr. Marksman.
00:44:26What's our status?
00:44:27Excellent progress,
00:44:28Mr. Vale.
00:44:29We will be advancing
00:44:30to phase two
00:44:31implementation
00:44:31within three days.
00:44:33That's exactly
00:44:34what I wanted to hear.
00:44:35I knew my judgment
00:44:36in appointing you
00:44:36was flawless.
00:44:37Preston,
00:44:43I need an update
00:44:44on the experimental
00:44:44surgery program.
00:44:46Everything's proceeding
00:44:47perfectly, Father.
00:44:48Outstanding.
00:44:49When this is done,
00:44:50I'll throw you
00:44:51a huge party
00:44:52to celebrate the launch.
00:44:53Your father must be
00:44:54so proud of you.
00:44:56Keep up the good work,
00:44:56Dr. Marksman.
00:44:58I'll make sure my father
00:44:59understands your
00:44:59invaluable contribution.
00:45:02This is my shot.
00:45:03Why settle for
00:45:04chief of surgery?
00:45:05With the right maneuvering,
00:45:05I can become the next
00:45:06chief medical officer
00:45:07of Vail Hospital.
00:45:09Mr. Vail,
00:45:10my purpose
00:45:11is to execute
00:45:12the visionary
00:45:13medical strategies
00:45:14of brilliant
00:45:15administrators
00:45:16such as yourself.
00:45:18I believe that
00:45:19in the position
00:45:19of chief medical officer,
00:45:21I could implement
00:45:22your ideas
00:45:22more effectively
00:45:23throughout the entire hospital.
00:45:25If these procedures
00:45:26prove successful,
00:45:27I will personally
00:45:27discuss your advancement
00:45:28with the board.
00:45:29Truly, that's...
00:45:30I am profoundly
00:45:33grateful, sir.
00:45:52You're finally awake.
00:45:54You can keep appreciating
00:46:00the view
00:46:00while you eat.
00:46:02All right.
00:46:02Ooh, breakfast.
00:46:04Looks good.
00:46:08When you're finished eating,
00:46:09we'll head directly
00:46:10to the surgical wing.
00:46:11Sound good?
00:46:12Yes.
00:46:13Absolutely.
00:46:15Good.
00:46:16Get it up and running,
00:46:17and there may be
00:46:18a special bonus
00:46:20waiting for you.
00:46:21Extra special.
00:46:33Okay, team.
00:46:34We're approaching
00:46:35a critical phase
00:46:35of our program development.
00:46:37We have groundbreaking
00:46:38procedures
00:46:38that we need to perfect
00:46:39in very little time,
00:46:41so let's get to it.
00:46:43Let's start
00:46:43revolutionizing medicine.
00:46:45I have excellent news
00:46:46for all of you.
00:46:47I've just finalized
00:46:48arrangements with the board,
00:46:49and upon successful
00:46:51implementation
00:46:51of our surgical innovations,
00:46:54each of you will receive
00:46:55a fully funded
00:46:56medical mission trip
00:46:57anywhere in the world
00:46:58that you choose
00:46:59to share your expertise.
00:47:00And when the time comes
00:47:02that our procedures
00:47:03receive national certification,
00:47:06every surgeon on this team
00:47:07will be gifted
00:47:08a percentage of the royalties
00:47:10from any techniques
00:47:11we patent.
00:47:11and you will be compensated
00:47:21accordingly.
00:47:24Dr. Hart,
00:47:25we are fully committed
00:47:26to making the surgical
00:47:27program a success.
00:47:29Absolutely.
00:47:30You'll be seeing progress
00:47:31ASAP.
00:47:32Vail Hospital
00:47:32won't know what hit him.
00:47:33With Adrian leading us,
00:47:35victory is guaranteed.
00:47:35Heart is best!
00:47:37Heart is best!
00:47:39Heart is best!
00:47:40Heart is best!
00:47:41Heart is best!
00:47:42We're running wild
00:47:44hearts on fire
00:47:45Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
00:47:48We're chasing dreams
00:47:50and climbing higher
00:47:52Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
00:47:54Can't hold us back
00:47:56We're ready to stay
00:47:58Can't hold us back
00:47:59We're running on the way
00:48:01You always this disciplined?
00:48:14Or are you just
00:48:15trying to impress me?
00:48:17I was trying to impress
00:48:18you even though
00:48:19Midnight meetings
00:48:21Long hours
00:48:23This work ethic of yours
00:48:26It's a little dangerous
00:48:29That's what Val used
00:48:33to say about me
00:48:33Then they fired me
00:48:36And they were fools
00:48:39You've earned more
00:48:43than just respect
00:48:44here, Adrian
00:48:44You know that, right?
00:48:51You trying to motivate
00:48:52me again?
00:48:53I don't try
00:48:54I do
00:48:58Well
00:49:01Don't work too late
00:49:03You're no good
00:49:07to me burnt out
00:49:08The incompetence
00:49:17is, uh
00:49:18is staggering
00:49:19Yeah, you too
00:49:21are in way over your heads
00:49:22Do you really think
00:49:26that this is acceptable?
00:49:27I give you one simple task
00:49:29and you screw it up
00:49:30How the hell did either of you
00:49:32even finish
00:49:33residency?
00:49:34Vail General Hospital
00:49:35is the gold standard
00:49:38and you two are just
00:49:39standing around
00:49:39like clueless little interns
00:49:40If these surgical models
00:49:42aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:49:43you're both gone
00:49:44Is that clear?
00:49:47Yes, sir
00:49:47This is the man I trusted
00:49:49to lead my surgical team?
00:49:51Go
00:49:53Oh, Mr. Vale
00:50:00What a, what a, what a surprise
00:50:02Cut the bullshit, Marksman
00:50:03We're on schedule or not
00:50:06Of course
00:50:07We're, we're just
00:50:09refining the final stages
00:50:11Yeah, everything's under control
00:50:13Good
00:50:14There's a problem
00:50:15I expect to hear it from you
00:50:17No cover-ups
00:50:17Of course, sir
00:50:18Mr. Vale
00:50:22Not now
00:50:23Go get me the latest
00:50:24performance reports
00:50:25It, uh
00:50:29Looks like Preston's
00:50:31growing a little cold
00:50:32on our lovely
00:50:33administrator here
00:50:34Don't worry
00:50:35When Preston makes me
00:50:37chief medical officer
00:50:38I'm gonna need someone
00:50:39flexible in my corner
00:50:41I was back at the winning team
00:50:43Dr. Marksman
00:50:44Today, Vale Hospital
00:50:52officially launched
00:50:53its highly anticipated
00:50:54next generation
00:50:55surgical program
00:50:57This cutting-edge approach
00:50:58to surgical care
00:50:59is being closely watched
00:51:00by the medical industry
00:51:02Especially as
00:51:03Heart Medical's
00:51:04competing program
00:51:05was released
00:51:05on the same day
00:51:06The question now is
00:51:08who will define
00:51:09the future
00:51:09of surgery?
00:51:11Relax, Mr. Vale
00:51:12Heart Medical
00:51:14doesn't stand a chance
00:51:15I hope you're right
00:51:17For your sake
00:51:19Didn't you say that
00:51:23if the rollout went well
00:51:25that you'd make me
00:51:26chief medical officer?
00:51:28It's not a success
00:51:29yet
00:51:30Enjoy tonight's launch party
00:51:33because if our results
00:51:35don't outshine
00:51:36Heart Medical
00:51:36it'll be the last thing
00:51:37you have to celebrate
00:51:38for a long time
00:51:39Dr. Hart, we have a problem
00:51:52Vale Hospital's
00:51:55new surgical program
00:51:56launches today
00:51:56That soon?
00:51:58They're hosting
00:51:59a big celebration party
00:52:00tonight
00:52:01It's a good thing
00:52:04we're ahead of
00:52:04You're saying we're ready?
00:52:08Why would I lie?
00:52:09We've been tracking
00:52:10Vale's every move
00:52:11Let him celebrate
00:52:13It's just gonna backfire
00:52:14How exactly
00:52:16does that work
00:52:16in our favor?
00:52:18Babe, do you remember
00:52:19what I told you
00:52:19when you first
00:52:20brought me here?
00:52:23Preston Vale's
00:52:23rushing this
00:52:24He's desperate
00:52:25to beat us
00:52:25to the market
00:52:26And?
00:52:27Their model's flawed
00:52:28If they keep
00:52:29moving forward
00:52:30without realizing
00:52:30their structural failure
00:52:31and their approach
00:52:32We won't have to
00:52:34lift a damn finger
00:52:35And what about
00:52:36when it falls apart?
00:52:37Then Heart Medical
00:52:38takes over
00:52:39as the future
00:52:39of modern surgery
00:52:40So you're saying
00:52:43that Vale Hospital
00:52:43has been refining
00:52:44the prototype
00:52:45surgical method
00:52:45that you designed?
00:52:47It's the only way
00:52:47they could have gotten
00:52:48this far this fast
00:52:49They're using
00:52:50an early draft
00:52:51full of mistakes
00:52:52that I won't make again
00:52:53They don't even realize
00:52:55the cracks in the foundation
00:52:56That actually
00:52:58makes perfect sense
00:53:00which means
00:53:01we've already won
00:53:03Well, this is
00:53:04a big day for us
00:53:05We should celebrate
00:53:06What do you have in mind?
00:53:08Drinks?
00:53:09Not quite
00:53:09You and I
00:53:11are crushing
00:53:11the Vale launch party
00:53:12tonight
00:53:13What?
00:53:15Why?
00:53:16Let me worry about that
00:53:17In the meantime
00:53:18ensure a smooth rollout
00:53:19finish whatever procedures
00:53:20you need to
00:53:21and meet me in the lobby
00:53:23at 8pm sharp
00:53:24Preston, we've been through
00:53:39so much together
00:53:40I know where I'm headed in life
00:53:43and I know who I want
00:53:44by my side
00:53:45Tonight
00:53:46at this launch party
00:53:48celebrating our
00:53:49groundbreaking surgical program
00:53:51Isn't it the perfect moment
00:53:53to ask
00:53:54Will you marry me?
00:54:03This should be fun
00:54:04Absolutely
00:54:05You really know how to
00:54:07take care of yourself
00:54:07Mr. Vale?
00:54:09Stop it
00:54:10Too bad you're taken
00:54:10Yeah, yeah
00:54:12what a shame
00:54:12Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:54:14Told her to meet me out here
00:54:15so we can go to this party together
00:54:17Forget about her
00:54:18She's just social
00:54:19climbing trash anyways
00:54:20We'll show you a better time
00:54:22Now that's an offer
00:54:26I can't refuse
00:54:27Let's go
00:54:27Fiona who?
00:54:31Oh, you ladies are crazy
00:54:33The number you have dialed is unavailable
00:54:47Please try again later
00:54:49The number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later.
00:55:19It's twenty in one day.
00:55:24All clean, all stable. Experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman. You did it.
00:55:30No, we didn't.
00:55:35Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vale's launch party. Pronto. You're already late.
00:55:39I need a change there.
00:55:40You don't have time.
00:55:41Where's Vivian?
00:55:43Taking care of something. She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:55:49Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vale Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:56:09What the fuck? You're my date and you're wasted.
00:56:12I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:56:15Yeah, God knows why I chose you, but I did. So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up for God's sakes.
00:56:21Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge? It's giving an orderly sheet.
00:56:31Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:56:33What are you doing at our launch party? You weren't invited.
00:56:35You're so sure about that?
00:56:37I mean, look at you. This is a black tie. I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
00:56:43Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter. The found surgeon, the fraud, and nobody.
00:56:49Showed up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:56:51Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals in the low lives.
00:56:53Guess you need to fire them too.
00:56:55Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery. Because some of us here are real surgeons.
00:56:59What are you trying to say?
00:57:01I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
00:57:05Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter. The found surgeon, the fraud, and nobody.
00:57:09Showed up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:57:11Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals in the low lives.
00:57:15Guess you need to fire them too.
00:57:17Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
00:57:19Because some of us here are real surgeons.
00:57:21What are you trying to say?
00:57:23I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
00:57:31I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
00:57:35Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
00:57:39A genius like him leading our surgical team?
00:57:41You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
00:57:44Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
00:57:46When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
00:57:53What are you talking about?
00:57:55Identity theft?
00:57:57Whose identity would we possibly be stealing? Yours?
00:58:00Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
00:58:03If you don't got it, you just act like you do.
00:58:06Speaking from experience.
00:58:09Look around you.
00:58:11This is the elite among the elite.
00:58:13The best of the best in the medical field.
00:58:15Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
00:58:19Good. I'm glad.
00:58:21Because you're all beneath me.
00:58:23Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
00:58:26That's enough. Guards!
00:58:29This former employee's threatening us.
00:58:31Kick him out!
00:58:33Touch me and you'll regret it.
00:58:37I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
00:58:40What are you dumbasses doing? Grab him!
00:58:43Check out into the abrirOOM 72!
00:58:51Captioning
00:58:57What the hell is this?
00:58:59Dad
00:59:00Relax. I uh.
00:59:01Relax.
00:59:03This twat came in uninking, I was just kicking him out.
00:59:06just kicking him out. Guards, remove him immediately. President Bale, it truly is an honor to finally
00:59:11meet you. Get out of my way. Dad, what are you doing? This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon
00:59:16that is leading our surgical. You are such a fool. What are you doing? Open your eyes, Preston.
00:59:26This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is. You are a disgrace. Dad.
00:59:34My hospital meant something and you turned it into a... into a...
00:59:40Dad. Dad. President Bale, fuck away from my dad. Are you out of your mind? He is the best surgeon
00:59:55in this room. Oh yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad. I'll die before I trust
00:59:59you two. Somebody get me a real doctor. David. David. Do something. It's cold. It's cold.
01:00:08Can't think of what to do next? Blanking? Can't think of a diagnosis? Shut up. Why isn't Dr.
01:00:15Marksman doing anything? This is ridiculous. I thought this David guy was a genius. I'm just
01:00:21standing there. Do something. What's the matter, David? If you need help, just ask. All you have
01:00:28to do is admit what you did. Right here, right now. I can't blow my cover, but what if I kill
01:00:36him? I don't know anything about surgeries. I don't even know what's wrong with them. I did
01:00:41medical school on Zoom. David, this is a matter of life and death. Let it go. I... I... I can't.
01:00:54I... I can't do this. Okay. Okay, I can't. I can't do this. I can't do this without my notebook.
01:01:05That's my surgical notebook. He stole it from me. Okay, okay. I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of
01:01:23water. Okay. Okay, I gotta... Here, take it, take it. Okay. All right, hold his head, but tilt it back
01:01:34and apply pressure here. Okay. Okay. Okay. Great. Fall. Fall. Thank you.
01:02:03Oh, that's my guy. Surgical genius. Oh, that's how Val makes history. Somebody get
01:02:12this man a medal, or at least a new department. If you still want that chief medical officer
01:02:16position, say the word. Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:02:23That maneuver. That notebook. It's mine. Then tell them.
01:02:28Where is he going? Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake
01:02:37hospital. Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs? Say, why don't you come back when you've actually saved
01:02:42your life?
01:02:43That procedure David used, I invented it. What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:02:53He's delusional. Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license. The notebook he used
01:02:59to save your father. That's mine. My handwriting, my theories.
01:03:04You're just pissed because he did what you couldn't. I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories
01:03:11as innovation. And when it fails, and it will, you're not the ones that'll pay for it. The
01:03:20patients will.
01:03:20You can't prove that.
01:03:22Not yet. But you can't fake medicine. Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:03:30My three's vital is just dropped. We've got uncontrolled bleeding. Second patient today.
01:03:37Same issue. Vessel ligation failed mid-operation. These techniques aren't viable. The fail method
01:03:43doesn't hold under stress. I mean, come on. Tonight proves it. We're ahead of every surgical
01:03:49institute in country.
01:03:50I'll be right back. Just coordinating with the team.
01:04:04Talk to me.
01:04:05The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again. This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:04:11Use the compression step. That only works in controlled scenarios. We told you these procedures
01:04:17weren't fully tested. Look, just follow the notes.
01:04:24I designed those techniques for 101 guidance, not mass implementation. Without calibration,
01:04:31it's unstable. It's dangerous.
01:04:33They tried to commercialize your success without you. Now people are paying for it.
01:04:37All good?
01:04:41Of course. Just routine coordination.
01:04:44Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss. Your surgical program is failing.
01:04:49Patients are suffering.
01:04:51You've been out of the field for months. You wouldn't know.
01:04:54Yeah, I would know. Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented. And I'm
01:04:59the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:05:03Bullshit.
01:05:07Oh, yes. This is Dr. Marksman.
01:05:11Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:05:15Okay, listen very carefully. Your patient OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:05:21because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:05:25No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial
01:05:31ligation, followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:05:39Yes.
01:05:41Yes.
01:05:42How do we even know he made a phone call? This whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:05:49You stole his methods. This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:05:56Uh, that's a lie.
01:05:58Then prove me wrong. Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:06:01Why would we believe anything he says?
01:06:07He was fired, Julian.
01:06:08You're right, I was fired.
01:06:10And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:06:16Now, you know what? This is pathetic.
01:06:18He's just jealous. He missed his shot.
01:06:20Is that what you told yourself?
01:06:22When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:06:25Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:06:29I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:06:42I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:06:45And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:06:52Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:06:55You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready and you fired him.
01:07:00The one person who could make them safe.
01:07:04Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:07:07Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:07:09This hospital was built on trust and integrity and you've disgraced them both.
01:07:15Your father nearly died because of your ego.
01:07:19Because of his lies.
01:07:22You saved me.
01:07:24You saved Nelson.
01:07:25And now, you can save Vale.
01:07:28Tried to warn you all.
01:07:30No one listened.
01:07:31They're listening now.
01:07:33You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two.
01:07:38And probably even more than me.
01:07:40It was a mistake to let you go.
01:07:42Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital.
01:07:46The procedure's still in development.
01:07:49They weren't ready.
01:07:50They needed supervision.
01:07:52Precision.
01:07:54Development.
01:07:55Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:07:58Oh.
01:07:59You can't prove that.
01:08:01Security footage.
01:08:02Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.
01:08:09Already submitted to the board.
01:08:12I built on what he started.
01:08:15Okay?
01:08:16I didn't steal.
01:08:17I enhanced it.
01:08:19Then why were patients about to die?
01:08:22You falsified rollout readiness?
01:08:24He did more than that.
01:08:25He put lives at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:08:31We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:08:35This is absurd.
01:08:36This was supposed to be our night.
01:08:38Oh, it's your night.
01:08:40Just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:08:43You lied to me.
01:08:45I didn't lie.
01:08:46I simplified the truth.
01:08:48Simplify?
01:08:48You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:08:53You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:08:56You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:08:59That's malpractice.
01:09:00They worked.
01:09:02Nelson's alive.
01:09:02Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:09:04Yeah, because of me.
01:09:06Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:09:11Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:09:13Wait, these really are your techniques?
01:09:16I tested them for years.
01:09:18It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:09:21Not without training.
01:09:22You're rewriting history?
01:09:24No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:09:27Adrian Marksman was the reason that Bale's program had a future.
01:09:31And without him, it won't.
01:09:33This is absurd!
01:09:35You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:09:38He's not disgraced, son.
01:09:40You are.
01:09:42You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:09:45And then when your ego wasn't enough,
01:09:47you propped up this fraud.
01:09:52Taking his side, dad?
01:09:54I'm your son.
01:09:55I'm taking the side of truth.
01:09:58And so will the board.
01:09:59We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:10:02Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:10:07Suspended?
01:10:08No, no, you can't do that.
01:10:09You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:10:11We understand the liability.
01:10:13That's enough.
01:10:16Mr. Preston Zale.
01:10:17Dr. David Marksman.
01:10:19Come with us.
01:10:21Dad.
01:10:22You're not going to let them drag me out like this.
01:10:24I'm your son.
01:10:24No.
01:10:25Don't you touch me.
01:10:26You're not a child.
01:10:27Hey, Dad!
01:10:28Hey, listen, I built that!
01:10:30You son of a...
01:10:31Get away!
01:10:32Get off me!
01:10:32Get off me!
01:10:33I'm just...
01:10:33I'm not a child!
01:10:35You're not my responsibility.
01:10:36I'm not my responsibility.
01:10:44Trin, please.
01:10:45I made a mistake.
01:10:46I see that now.
01:10:47I should have believed in you.
01:10:49I should have stood by you.
01:10:51You were right about everything.
01:10:56Just give me a second chance.
01:10:58Please.
01:10:59I still love you.
01:11:02Love, you traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:11:06You don't understand.
01:11:08I thought he was finished.
01:11:11I thought he had nothing left.
01:11:13So you sold him out.
01:11:14Mocked him.
01:11:16Over and over again.
01:11:18I was scared.
01:11:19I...
01:11:19I didn't know what to do.
01:11:21Oh, you knew.
01:11:22You just didn't care.
01:11:24Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:11:28Please.
01:11:30Say something.
01:11:32Anything.
01:11:33You had your chance, Fiona.
01:11:34And he spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:11:39You always belonged in my operating room.
01:11:50And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:11:56The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.
01:12:01And David will never go near another patient again.
01:12:05We're rebuilding.
01:12:06And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:12:11I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:12:15You had your chance, too.
01:12:17I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:12:20Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:12:24Adrian 2.0.
01:12:25I'm not coming right.
01:12:26You're choosing her?
01:12:30Our rival?
01:12:32You arrogant little ingrate.
01:12:34I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:12:38Just typical.
01:12:40Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it.
01:12:43For what?
01:12:44Her?
01:12:45She's just going to use you up and push you aside like everyone else.
01:12:48Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:12:52Get me out of here.
01:12:54Now!
01:13:11Karma has good timing.
01:13:15Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:13:18We have lives to save.
01:13:20Hey!
01:13:21Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:13:26I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:13:31Now?
01:13:32Well, there's no time like the present.
01:13:41This is what good Drew tastes like.
01:13:44It's not bad.
01:13:45I need a second opinion.
01:13:48Well, I've got all night.
01:13:51And you're not leaving this room until I properly celebrate it.
01:13:55My genius surgeon.
01:13:56Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:13:58You're already exceeding expectations.
01:14:02But I am very thorough.
01:14:10Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:14:15Besides meeting you, of course.
01:14:16Non-nos villages.
01:14:18I'm sorry.
01:14:19I don't know.
01:14:19To be honest with you.
01:14:23Bye-bye.
01:14:23Thanks.
01:14:23Bye-bye.
01:14:24Bye-bye.
01:14:25Bye-bye.
01:14:36Bye-bye.
01:14:36Bye-bye.
01:14:37Bye-bye.
01:14:40Bye-bye.
01:14:41Bye-bye.
