00:00:02A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured
00:00:07patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department. The fate of these accident victims
00:00:12now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of
00:00:18devastating trauma. Facials crashing, we need an attending surgeon now! All the hours are full,
00:00:24we got three more criticals incoming. Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding. Well, I can't leave
00:00:29this one. Where's Dr. Stephens? We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:00:50Need a hand? A new hire. You just started this month. Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready
00:00:58for a level one trauma like this? The patient's pressure is dropping. Time to prove yourself,
00:01:02Dr. Marksman. The patient's yours. Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple. Whipple? For trauma?
00:01:16That's insane. Trust me. Met some bomb scissors. Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:25That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive. Bovey Cotterie. Watch.

00:04:03you
00:04:03you
00:04:21They're all stable.
00:04:22Every single one of them, stabilized.
00:04:29Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:04:32You must have operated all night.
00:04:34You're a machine.
00:04:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:38All right.
00:04:40It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:04:57Hey, you.
00:05:01Hey, yourself.
00:05:04I've been operating all night.
00:05:06I've seen every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:09What you did was extraordinary.
00:05:12How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:16Because I know you.
00:05:18Better than anyone.
00:05:25Goldberry, your favorite?
00:05:28You remembered.
00:05:30Where's your dad?
00:05:31You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:36I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:49It's the third time this week.
00:05:51Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:53Hmm.
00:05:55So who's this Marksman guy?
00:05:56His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:58Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:01I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:04With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:06:14What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:17Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:23Who is this guy?
00:06:26Preston Vail, President Vail's son, Harvard MBA.
00:06:29He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:33who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:37I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:44Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:46Sir, about last...
00:06:47Save it!
00:06:50Parker, you couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:54You're fired.
00:06:56Clear out your office.
00:06:57New management means new standards.
00:07:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:07:05Attention.
00:07:06Need everybody's attention now.
00:07:08If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs,
00:07:12every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:14No complications, no deaths.
00:07:17This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:21Who does he think he is?
00:07:23Dr. House?
00:07:25What is this?
00:07:27Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:30Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:34This is a hospital.
00:07:36We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:41That was from my residency direction.
00:07:43Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:45Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients
00:07:47and a little less time collecting gold stars,
00:07:49you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:51You're fired.
00:07:52Excuse me?
00:07:53Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop
00:07:55just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:58Yes, sir.
00:07:59Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:04That was good.
00:08:05Let's go.
00:08:10Well, well, well.
00:08:11What do we have here?
00:08:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:16Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:22Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:24No, you didn't.
00:08:26But here's one anyway.
00:08:28You are fired.
00:08:32Are you serious?
00:08:33You're firing me?
00:08:35Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:08:38Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:41Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:46He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:49What's he make?
00:08:51$700,000.
00:08:52That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:54$700,000?
00:08:56$700,000?
00:08:56Are you insane?
00:08:57You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:09:01This hospital is being scammed.
00:09:03I just worked all night.
00:09:05Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
00:09:06Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:09:09I've seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:09:13What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:09:16Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:09:21Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:25My career comes first.
00:09:27Boy, bye.
00:09:29There must be some clerical error.
00:09:31His credentials.
00:09:33Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:36Fiona?
00:09:39Dr. Marksman.
00:09:42You are F-I-R-E-D.
00:09:45Fire.
00:09:47Clear out your office.
00:09:48Clear out your locker.
00:09:50You'll get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:53This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:54You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:56You don't get to wear that.
00:09:57What?
00:10:03I see.
00:10:07Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:09You don't understand.
00:10:11He's the one who...
00:10:12Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:14Beat it.
00:10:15Vail is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:10:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:37I understand.
00:10:39Hospital politics.
00:10:41I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:45Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:47I'll be waiting.
00:10:57You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:04If the board won't like this, four attendings dismissed in one day, patient care will suffer.
00:11:10Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:12I intend to wield it.
00:11:14Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:11:18Your little scam artist situation ship?
00:11:21No, Preston.
00:11:22He means nothing to me.
00:11:24Really.
00:11:25I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:11:27Let's be clear about your future here.
00:11:30Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:11:34Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks?
00:11:38Including yours?
00:11:40The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:44Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:57Hey, Dad.
00:11:58What's wrong?
00:11:59Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:12:01She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:12:05And Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:09Of course.
00:12:09What is it?
00:12:10That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman.
00:12:13Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:16Dr. Marksman?
00:12:17Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:20Get out of my hospital.
00:12:22Christ.
00:12:23The resident I just fired?
00:12:26Preston?
00:12:27Are you there?
00:12:29Check the staff roster.
00:12:31See if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:12:35I had to back up the Briggs truck to get him here.
00:12:38He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:41And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:45The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:54Ah, yes.
00:12:55I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:58Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:13:02Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:13:07Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:13:09Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:13:10That's our man.
00:13:11There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:13:16Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:13:18Do me a favor.
00:13:19Fire him.
00:13:21Already done, Dad.
00:13:22I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:13:25Thank God.
00:13:26Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:13:28Good work, son.
00:13:30I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:13:34Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:13:36I got everything else under control.
00:13:44See?
00:13:45Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:49Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:53Mr. Vale, sir.
00:13:54Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:56Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:57The six-car pileup.
00:13:58You fired half our surgery team.
00:14:00What's your point?
00:14:01ER is crashing.
00:14:02We've no one left who can handle it.
00:14:10Give me the situation.
00:14:12Now.
00:14:13Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:14:16Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:14:19We're losing patients.
00:14:21What are our options?
00:14:22There might be one solution.
00:14:24Well, spit it out.
00:14:25Dr. Marksman.
00:14:27He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:14:29If we can get him back here.
00:14:31Marksman.
00:14:32Right.
00:14:32That's the men we need.
00:14:33Fiona, call him.
00:14:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:14:36The genius surgeon.
00:14:38The one I didn't fire.
00:14:39Keep up.
00:14:44What the hell?
00:14:46Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:02Idiot left his research notes.
00:15:05Mmm.
00:15:07Modified trauma protocol.
00:15:09Wait.
00:15:11These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:15:15Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:21Hello?
00:15:22Dr. Marksman.
00:15:23Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:15:26Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:15:30I'm on my way.
00:15:35With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:15:39They'll make me department head.
00:15:41And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:49Well?
00:15:50Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:52Thank God.
00:16:03Now, about your loyalty.
00:16:06Adrian meant nothing.
00:16:08I was using him to advance my career.
00:16:11You're my future.
00:16:12That's my girl.
00:16:21Beyond a shift ended an hour ago.
00:16:23The boss's son is up to something.
00:16:27To hell with this.
00:16:28I'm going up.
00:16:43Piece of shit.
00:16:48Get your hand off my girl.
00:16:52Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:16:54You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:16:59You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:17:03I can choose who I want.
00:17:04And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:17:07You pathetic loser.
00:17:24We're done, Adrian.
00:17:27Ancient history.
00:17:28Are you serious?
00:17:30Just like that.
00:17:32Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:17:37Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:17:40Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:17:41I need someone with a future.
00:17:43Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:17:50Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:53It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:18:00Look at us, Adrian.
00:18:02I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:18:04And you?
00:18:07You're just a slacker.
00:18:09And scrubs.
00:18:10You're washed up, marksman.
00:18:12Perhaps try nursing?
00:18:14I hear they're always hiring.
00:18:17Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:18:20I thought we could build a family together.
00:18:24Get over yourself.
00:18:25You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:18:28President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:18:35We're done.
00:18:37I'm not done.
00:18:39But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:18:45You can count on that.
00:18:49No, no, no.
00:18:49Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:18:52Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:58He'll authorize you to be here.
00:19:00Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident,
00:19:06and the situation is completely under control.
00:19:09You're Dr. Marksman.
00:19:11Ah, yes.
00:19:12The very same.
00:19:13My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:19:16Harvard Medical, was it?
00:19:19These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:19:24As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:19:29Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:34He was sleeping while a patient almost died on the table.
00:19:39Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:19:48Dr. Hart.
00:19:50Incredible news.
00:19:52Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking, he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:20:00When?
00:20:01Less than an hour ago.
00:20:02Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:20:06Oh.
00:20:07Amazing.
00:20:09I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his Price Surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:20:16With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:20:21Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:20:25Well, I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:20:27Full department autonomy.
00:20:30Research funding.
00:20:31State-of-the-art facilities.
00:20:33State-of-the-art facilities.
00:20:34And if necessary, my personal involvement.
00:20:39His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:20:42Have my car brought round.
00:20:45I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:20:48And Adrian Marksman?
00:20:50He's leaving with me.
00:20:58Malfeasance.
00:20:58What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:21:01Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:21:03A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:21:05The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:21:07Yet you stand there denying it.
00:21:09This is crazy.
00:21:10You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:21:13And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,
00:21:21you blame me, the collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:21:28If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be, you would still have a job.
00:21:33I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:21:37Security, please detain him.
00:21:45What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:21:47Either confess to medical malfeasance, or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:21:54Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:21:58What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:22:01You better confess now, or we'll do everything in your power to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:22:07Fine.
00:22:08Go ahead.
00:22:09Do your worst.
00:22:11Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.
00:22:16You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:22:21Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:22:26Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:22:29After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:22:32Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:22:35Not after what he did to our patients.
00:22:39I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:22:41As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital and every medical institute in the country.
00:22:49Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:22:50Do you know what that means?
00:22:52It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.
00:22:58I have one question before I go.
00:23:01Does your father know you fired me?
00:23:04My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.
00:23:09You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?
00:23:14Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:23:17Immediately.
00:23:18Yes, doctor.
00:23:19Right away, sir.
00:23:22That's quite enough.
00:23:35Let him go.
00:23:38Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as chief of surgical innovation at Heart Medical Center.
00:23:47I know you.
00:23:48You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.
00:23:54That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.
00:23:58Vivian?
00:23:59I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium, like four or five years ago.
00:24:03What are you doing here?
00:24:04Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.
00:24:09Wait.
00:24:10Are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?
00:24:14He was sleeping during rounds.
00:24:16Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?
00:24:20Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.
00:24:28Dr. Hart, with all due respect.
00:24:31This is a conversation between medical directors.
00:24:34Someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:24:37Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.
00:24:42He compromised patient safety and...
00:24:45I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, Dr.
00:24:48Marksman.
00:24:49David Marksman.
00:24:50I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.
00:24:55After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.
00:25:00His negligence led to the problem.
00:25:03His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:25:09Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:25:13Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:25:18Of course I consulted my father.
00:25:22He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.
00:25:27Dangerous shortcuts?
00:25:30Is that what President Vail really said?
00:25:32His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.
00:25:36President Vail was the one that recruited me.
00:25:38This makes absolutely no sense.
00:25:39Please, Adrian.
00:25:41The president wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:25:44Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.
00:25:50Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute to any of you.
00:25:55Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:26:02Well, I've...
00:26:03Full department autonomy, protected research time, a surgical fellowship in your name,
00:26:09and a seven-figure salary package.
00:26:42And cash.
00:26:44Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:26:49Hopefully this shows you.
00:26:51I mean what I say.
00:26:59Chief of surgery?
00:27:03You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:27:07Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs?
00:27:12Dr. Marksman, this is absurd.
00:27:14He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.
00:27:16And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:27:22The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:27:27Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:27:31This isn't about money.
00:27:34Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:27:38She's offering herself up to him.
00:27:41She can't do that.
00:27:42Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:27:45At Heart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves.
00:27:51Including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:27:55And I don't mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:28:00Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation, you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing
00:28:07has a documented history of negligence.
00:28:10My father confirmed it himself.
00:28:12Is that precisely what Nelson Bale told you?
00:28:15His exact words.
00:28:18Negligence, surgeon.
00:28:20What are those?
00:28:23Personal gifts from your father.
00:28:28My fellowship offer.
00:28:30My personal research lab.
00:28:32My surgical team.
00:28:34I'm leaving it all behind.
00:28:37You can tell President Vail that as of this moment, Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn from Vail Hospital and all
00:28:45of its affiliated institutions.
00:28:46You know what?
00:28:47Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:28:49You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:28:53The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:28:56Oh.
00:28:57Your stupidity.
00:28:59It's just astonishing.
00:29:01You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:29:05This man is a life-saving artist.
00:29:12Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Vail Hospital.
00:29:17Yeah.
00:29:18Look, I'll be real.
00:29:20We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:29:22Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:29:24Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:29:30Look at yourself, Adrian.
00:29:32Offering your skills to a struggling clinic.
00:29:35How pathetically desperate.
00:29:37Oh.
00:29:39A backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.
00:29:44How dare you talk to me like that!
00:29:47Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation.
00:29:53As the responsible party, I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals.
00:29:59And with an explanation to every affected Vail Hospital patient.
00:30:05Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently.
00:30:10That accusation isn't just baseness.
00:30:13It's absurd.
00:30:14What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?
00:30:17You've got no choice but to sign this confession.
00:30:19Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.
00:30:21If you insist on pursuing this vendetta, have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:30:28We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:30:32If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that I've got.
00:30:40Let's go.
00:30:41One more second and this cesspool's going to make me physically ill.
00:30:53Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those secondary practitioners.
00:31:00David, you've proven your loyalty.
00:31:02The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.
00:31:06This is extraordinary.
00:31:12I am honored beyond words.
00:31:15Don't forget about me, Preston.
00:31:18Don't worry, babe.
00:31:19You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:31:24How exciting.
00:31:26Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.
00:31:32Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.
00:31:35Six critical patients incoming.
00:31:36Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:31:38Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.
00:31:40Shit.
00:31:41I'm screwed.
00:31:42Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.
00:31:46If Preston finds out, I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:31:50I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.
00:31:56These techniques are revolutionary.
00:31:59I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:32:02It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:04You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:32:06No need to bore me with the specifics.
00:32:08I trust your brilliance.
00:32:10Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:11With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters.
00:32:16Hospital expansion.
00:32:19Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.
00:32:27Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:32:30Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:32:37Glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:32:40Yeah.
00:32:40Oh, sorry.
00:32:42Who's this?
00:32:46Nelson Vail speaking.
00:32:48President Vail, Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:32:51I am calling to let you know that as of this morning,
00:32:54Hart Medical Center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena.
00:32:59Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:33:03Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:33:06This is merely a professional courtesy call, not an invitation for debate.
00:33:11Now, just...
00:33:17What is that conniving bitch plotting?
00:33:19She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:33:24Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war she has?
00:33:27Absolutely no chance of winning.
00:33:32Unless...
00:33:39Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:33:40Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:33:43Dad, relax.
00:33:45I fired the other one.
00:33:46That incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:33:49Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.
00:33:57Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.
00:34:02It's not way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:34:06I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:34:10But in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:34:14So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:34:17She thinks she's hired genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:34:22That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:34:25Impressive, son.
00:34:26You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:34:29I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:34:31I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:34:38Dad, this is everything I've worked for.
00:34:41We'll get to work immediately.
00:34:43We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:34:51Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:34:54I will let you down.
00:34:57Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:35:01Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:35:04Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:35:08I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:35:13Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:35:18You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:35:20Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:35:23Exactly.
00:35:23And all I need to do is stay hands-off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:35:33As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:35:40Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:35:49What we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:36:02So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:36:09It's not bad.
00:36:10It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:36:13What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:36:18It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:36:22You too.
00:36:23You need to expand.
00:36:25It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:36:30Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:36:38We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:36:40And I always find the best one.
00:36:50I'm going to start recruiting.
00:36:53Good.
00:36:55The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:37:13This better be good.
00:37:15Mr. Vail, you wanted to see me?
00:37:22My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:37:27Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:37:33Mr. Vail, I, uh...
00:37:35Is there an issue with that?
00:37:36No, absolutely not.
00:37:39The budget for innovation is astronomical, and President Vail has already handed control to his son?
00:37:45If I oversee these procedures, I could divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:37:51Mr. Vail, you can trust me completely.
00:37:54I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:37:59Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:38:01Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignations simultaneously.
00:38:04The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.
00:38:06What?
00:38:07They both resigned at once?
00:38:08What was their explanation?
00:38:10They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:38:11But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vail physician.
00:38:14Along with the three other surgeons you fired before.
00:38:17Former physician Adrian Marksman, this has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:38:22Preston, what's our contingency plan?
00:38:23The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:38:26If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.
00:38:29Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.
00:38:33You still have me.
00:38:35I can rebuild this department.
00:38:37Ah, yes.
00:38:38With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:38:41Yes, exactly.
00:38:43So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:38:45Let him go.
00:38:47I'll make some calls to Cedar Sinai and UCLA.
00:38:53Good work, Marksman.
00:38:57This is working out perfectly.
00:39:00Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:39:02Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:39:29It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Hart.
00:39:35This is Dr. Parker here.
00:39:36He's a triple board certified surgeon.
00:39:39And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:39:41This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:39:46All consummate professionals.
00:39:48My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.
00:39:53With this surgical team, Hart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.
00:40:00Actually, the whole world.
00:40:02We're here to begin, Dr. Hart.
00:40:04Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:40:08I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.
00:40:14We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.
00:40:20Have no fear, Dr. Hart.
00:40:22With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.
00:40:26Yes, but Vail has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:40:33Yeah, about that.
00:40:34It's a preliminary version.
00:40:36If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:40:39Then what?
00:40:39A lot of deaths.
00:40:41A lot of lawsuits.
00:40:43A lot of patients could be harmed.
00:40:45Or worse, these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.
00:40:50Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training.
00:40:54Without that foundation...
00:40:56We're talking about serious complications.
00:40:59Preventable harm.
00:41:00Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:41:03We need to perfect these procedures.
00:41:05And then we can find a way to prevent Vail from continuing with the flawed protocols.
00:41:10Exactly.
00:41:11It's not about competition or pride.
00:41:13It's about saving lives.
00:41:17We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Vail to develop next-generation surgical techniques, eliminating all
00:41:25the previous complications and inefficiencies.
00:41:28Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new, we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:41:37And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols, rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:41:44I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:41:47Remember this moment.
00:41:49In this battle for medical supremacy, Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:42:01It's 3 a.m.
00:42:03Lost track of time again.
00:42:10Viv, you surprised me.
00:42:13Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:42:16Do you mind?
00:42:18No.
00:42:20I mean, yeah.
00:42:23What do you give all your surgeons massages?
00:42:26Only the ones I really, really like.
00:42:34You really, really like me?
00:42:36Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:42:40Nothing's changed.
00:42:42You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:42:45I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:42:48There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:42:51Only you.
00:42:54But you were completely oblivious.
00:42:56And then you just vanished from the program.
00:43:00Well, I left to join the Experimental Surgical Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:43:05I know.
00:43:07Your talent was extraordinary even then.
00:43:11Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:43:15You know, when I established Heart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:43:22But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Bale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:43:31I understand now.
00:43:40So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:43:45You're the boss.
00:43:46That's right.
00:43:48And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:43:52Tonight?
00:43:53You lost everything when Preston fired you.
00:43:56Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital-subsidized apartment.
00:44:06You have literally nowhere else to go tonight.
00:44:09Come with me.
00:44:13Where?
00:44:14My place.
00:44:24All right.
00:44:25I'll admit it.
00:44:27That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:44:29Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:44:31I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:44:34That just depends on the company.
00:44:36Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:44:40Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:44:45Are you sure about that?
00:44:46We already work late hours.
00:44:48Living together could get complicated.
00:44:53Well, I like complicated.
00:44:55Keeps things interesting.
00:44:57And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:45:01Well, my master suite has a California king.
00:45:12Plenty of room.
00:45:14If things ever need to get more collaborative.
00:45:20Really?
00:45:22Relax.
00:45:23I'm only teasing.
00:45:25Tonight, at least.
00:45:28Come on.
00:45:31I'll show you your room.
00:45:34Unless you'd rather have a nightcap.
00:45:37And mine.
00:45:44Things could get dangerous.
00:45:50Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:45:57You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:46:00Dr. Marksman, the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:46:06We need at least six months to properly master...
00:46:09Six months?
00:46:11You have 72 hours.
00:46:13And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:46:15Sir, rushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications.
00:46:22Three days.
00:46:23And you don't get one hour more.
00:46:25Go.
00:46:26Go.
00:46:31Report, Dr. Marksman.
00:46:32What's our status?
00:46:34Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.
00:46:35We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:46:40That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:46:42I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.
00:46:49Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:46:54Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:46:56Outstanding.
00:46:57When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:47:01Your father must be so proud of you.
00:47:03Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:47:06I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:47:10This is my shot.
00:47:11Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:47:13With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.
00:47:17Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators such as yourself.
00:47:26I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more effectively throughout the entire
00:47:33hospital.
00:47:34If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.
00:47:38Truly, that's...
00:47:41I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:48:02You're finally awake.
00:48:09You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.
00:48:12All right.
00:48:13Ooh, breakfast.
00:48:14Looks good.
00:48:19When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.
00:48:22Sound good?
00:48:23Yes.
00:48:24Absolutely.
00:48:26Good.
00:48:27Get it up and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.
00:48:36Extra special.
00:48:45Okay, team.
00:48:46We're approaching a critical phase of our program development.
00:48:49We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time.
00:48:54So, let's get to it.
00:48:55Let's start revolutionizing medicine.
00:48:57I have excellent news for all of you.
00:49:00I've just finalized arrangements with the board.
00:49:02And upon successful implementation of our surgical innovations, each of you will receive a fully funded medical mission trip anywhere
00:49:11in the world that you choose to share your expertise.
00:49:13And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification, every surgeon on this team will be gifted a
00:49:22percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.
00:49:27At Hart Medical Center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution, and you will be compensated accordingly.
00:49:39Dr. Hart, we are fully committed to making this surgical program a success.

00:51:54vale general hospital
00:51:56is the gold standard
00:51:58and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:52:01if these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:52:04you're both gone
00:52:05is that clear
00:52:07yes sir
00:52:08this is the man i trusted to lead my surgical team

00:52:30we're just refining the final stages
00:52:33yeah
00:52:34everything is under control
00:52:36good
00:52:37there's a problem i expect to hear it from you

00:52:45not now
00:52:45go get me the latest performance reports
00:52:51it uh
00:52:53looks like preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here
00:52:57don't worry
00:52:59when preston makes me chief medical officer
00:53:01i'm gonna need someone
00:53:03flexible in my corner
00:53:05i was back at the winning team dr marksman
00:53:15today vale hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next generation surgical program
00:53:21this cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:53:26especially as heart medical's competing program was released on the same day
00:53:31the question now is who will define the future of surgery
00:53:36relax mr vale
00:53:37heart medical doesn't stand a chance
00:53:41i hope you're right
00:53:43for your sake
00:53:47didn't you say that uh
00:53:49if the rollout went well that you'd make me
00:53:51chief medical officer
00:53:53it's not a success
00:53:55it's not a success
00:53:58enjoy tonight's launch party
00:53:59because if our results don't outshine heart medical
00:54:02it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time
00:54:17dr hart we uh have a problem
00:54:20vale hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:54:23that's soon
00:54:25they're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:54:30it's a good thing we're headed
00:54:34you're saying we're ready
00:54:35why would i lie
00:54:37we've been tracking vail's every move
00:54:40let him celebrate
00:54:41it's just gonna backfire
00:54:42how exactly does that work in our favor
00:54:46bib do you remember what i told you
00:54:48when you first brought me here
00:54:51preston vale's rushing this
00:54:53he's desperate to beat us to the market
00:54:54and
00:54:55their model's flawed
00:54:57if they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach
00:55:03we won't have to lift a damn finger
00:55:04and what about when it falls apart
00:55:06then heart medical takes over as the future of modern surgery
00:55:11so you're saying that vale hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed
00:55:16it's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast
00:55:19they're using an early draft
00:55:21they're using an early draft full of mistakes that i won't make again
00:55:24they don't even realize the cracks in their foundation
00:55:26that actually makes perfect sense
00:55:31which means we've already won
00:55:34well this is a big day for us
00:55:35we should celebrate

01:05:33say hey why don't you come back
01:05:35when you've actually saved a life

01:05:47he's delusional
01:05:49somebody seriously check this guy's medical license
01:05:52the notebook he used to save your father

01:05:56my handwriting
01:05:57my theories
01:06:00just pissed because he did
01:06:02what you couldn't
01:06:03i'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories
01:06:06as innovation
01:06:07and when it fails
01:06:10and it will
01:06:13you're not the ones that'll pay for it
01:06:15the patients will
01:06:16you can't prove that
01:06:17not yet
01:06:19but you can't fake medicine
01:06:22medicine and science
01:06:24always tell the truth
01:06:29our three's vitals just dropped
01:06:30we've got uncontrolled bleeding
01:06:32second patient today
01:06:33same issue
01:06:34vessel ligation failed mid-operation
01:06:36these techniques aren't viable
01:06:38the veil method doesn't hold under stress
01:06:40i mean come on
01:06:42tonight proves it
01:06:44we're ahead of every surgical institute in the country
01:06:54i'll be right back
01:06:56just coordinating with the team
01:07:00talk to me
01:07:01the vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again
01:07:04this is the second patient bleeding out tonight
01:07:09use the compression step
01:07:10that only works in control scenarios
01:07:13we told you these procedures weren't fully tested
01:07:16look just follow the notes
01:07:22i designed those techniques for 101 guidance
01:07:25not mass implementation
01:07:27without calibration
01:07:28it's unstable
01:07:30it's dangerous
01:07:31they tried to commercialize your success without you
01:07:34now people are paying for it
01:07:37all good?
01:07:39of course
01:07:40just routine coordination
01:07:43routine coordination
01:07:44doesn't usually include blood loss
01:07:46your surgical program is failing
01:07:48and patients are suffering
01:07:50you've been out of the field for months
01:07:51you wouldn't know
01:07:52yeah i would know
01:07:54because the procedures that you're butchering
01:07:56i invented
01:07:57and i'm the only one in this room
01:07:59who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing
01:08:01oh shit
01:08:08oh yes this is dr marksman
01:08:10yeah connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately
01:08:15okay listen very carefully
01:08:17your patient or three is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging
01:08:22because the vascular bundle clamp technique
01:08:24was improperly executed
01:08:26no you need to perform a marksman modified pringle maneuver
01:08:29with selective hepatic arterial legation
01:08:32followed by a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis
01:08:36using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures
01:08:40yes
01:08:43yes
01:08:45how do we even know he made a phone call
01:08:48his whole thing is performance
01:08:50a charade
01:08:51you stole his methods
01:08:52this entire launch party
01:08:55is built upon stolen work and guesswork
01:08:58uh that's a lie
01:08:59then prove me wrong
01:09:00show them all a technique that i didn't create
01:09:06why would we believe anything he says
01:09:09he was fired
01:09:10humiliated
01:09:10you're right i was fired
01:09:12and the same procedures i pioneered
01:09:14were renamed and sold back to the board
01:09:17as revolutionary
01:09:18you know what this is pathetic
01:09:20he's just jealous
01:09:21he missed his shot
01:09:23is that what you told yourself
01:09:24when you snuck back into my office
01:09:27and stole my surgical journal
01:09:28even if that were true
01:09:30this isn't the time or the place
01:09:32i think it's exactly the time and place
01:09:46i just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator
01:09:49and thanks to adrian's guidance
01:09:52our surgeons were able to stabilize the coating patients
01:09:56adrian just cleaned up your mess
01:09:59you took this good man's techniques that weren't ready
01:10:03and you fired him
01:10:04the one person who could make them safe
01:10:09dad
01:10:10you don't see the full picture here
01:10:12oh i'm seeing it perfectly well
01:10:15this hospital was built on trust and integrity
01:10:18and you've disgraced them both
01:10:20your father nearly died because of your ego
01:10:24because of his lies
01:10:27you saved me
01:10:29you saved nelson
01:10:31and now you can save vale
01:10:34i tried to warn you all
01:10:36no one listened
01:10:37well they're listening now
01:10:39you deserve to be at vale
01:10:42more than either of those two
01:10:44and probably even more than me
01:10:46it was a mistake to let you go
01:10:50months ago i was fired from vale hospital
01:10:52with procedures still in development
01:10:55they weren't ready
01:10:56they needed supervision
01:10:59precision
01:11:00development
01:11:01instead someone took my notes
01:11:03and tried to fast track them for glory
01:11:05oh
01:11:06you can't prove that
01:11:08security footage
01:11:12of you stealing adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:11:17already submitted to the board
01:11:19i built on what he started
01:11:22okay
01:11:23i didn't steal
01:11:24i enhanced it
01:11:27then why were patients about to die
01:11:30you falsified rollout readiness
01:11:32he did more than that
01:11:34he put lives at risk
01:11:36to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program
01:11:40we're going to need to open a formal investigation on this
01:11:43this is absurd
01:11:45this was supposed to be our night
01:11:47oh it's your night
01:11:49just not the way you thought it'd be
01:11:52you lied to me
01:11:53i didn't lie
01:11:54i simplified the truth
01:11:56simplify
01:11:57you could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people
01:12:02you nearly killed the president of the hospital
01:12:05you passed up experimental procedures as launch ready

01:12:11nelson's alive
01:12:12look the patients they're alive
01:12:14yeah because of me
01:12:15those methods require sequential tensioning
01:12:18breath control
01:12:19special clamp techniques
