00:30Laurel Thomas, 51-year-old female.
00:33Unconscious and unresponsive after a suspected fall downstairs.
00:36BP 80 over 40, Sats 93, GCS 7.
00:40She's had 10 milligrams of IV morphine.
00:42Straight to recess, please.
00:43You've got to help her.
00:44No, it's fine. They will do.
00:47Jacob, you need to stop.
00:49No, let me help her.
00:50No.
00:51Jacob, you need to stop.
00:53Help me, Brigham.
00:55Do either of you know exactly what happened?
00:57How she fell downstairs?
00:59Anything can help.
01:01I just got home and found a line like that.
01:03OK. Thanks.
01:04Can you show them to the relatives for them, please?
01:07If you'd like to call me.
01:14Right.
01:15Jacob, you're leading.
01:18Thanks.
01:19What have we got?
01:25Come on, come on.
01:27You know what you're doing.
01:28Airway clear.
01:32Breathing.
01:34Yeah, OK, I think.
01:36It looks laboured.
01:37And she's tachycardic.
01:39Agreed.
01:39Swap out.
01:47Myotic pupils, she's been restored with depression.
01:49Could be the morphine we need.
01:50Oxygen to support her breathing and naloxone to counteract.
01:53It's not a theory test, Richard.
02:01Want your micrograms to have naloxone?
02:03Straight away, please.
02:04And let's get the duty necistist on standby.
02:09Sat's still dropping.
02:10Got a good enough view.
02:11Mind if I have a look?
02:14This isn't great.
02:15Let's have another 400 on standby.
02:19Come on, woman.
02:20Start fighting it.
02:25Oh, you're worried about your dad.
02:27So am I.
02:28But hopefully Laurel's managed to get through to him.
02:31Yeah, there's not much else we can do is that...
02:33Dad!
02:33We're back!
02:34Sorry we're late.
02:37Maybe he's finally got some sleep.
02:39Yeah, or passed out.
02:40It's not quite the same thing, is it?
02:42I'm sure he'd take it at the minute.
02:43Hey, shall I put a kettle on?
02:44Yeah.
02:48Oh my God.
02:49Huh?
02:52So much for helping him through it.
02:54Looks like she's made things worse.
02:56Right, we just need to focus on him being okay.
02:58I know we should have come back and checked on him.
03:00Dad!
03:01Babe, babe.
03:02Look.
03:03Oh, what's he done?
03:14Excuse me, sir.
03:17I'm just going to see the doctor.
03:18You can't be down there.
03:19You need to register.
03:21Then someone will take a look.
03:24They were just there.
03:26It might be a while, I'm afraid.
03:29I just want to see the doctor.
03:31Let's book you in.
03:32Try and get you sorted.
03:35Might be able to find you a quiet corner to wait in.
03:43Wow, that was fun.
03:45Do you know what?
03:45Even better than saving the sheep the other day.
03:48Things are definitely on the up.
03:50Oh, yeah.
03:51Never better.
03:52Sorry, I meant money-wise and, you know, excitement-wise, not your cancer.
03:56Which I am not talking about.
03:58Well, could you just try not talking about anything?
04:02I don't see that.
04:04That is what I'm talking about.
04:05The police are so stupid.
04:07Could you just shut up and let me think?
04:08All right, chill out.
04:09You just need to calm down.
04:16Oh, God.
04:16They're coming back.
04:18What?
04:18Quick.
04:19We need to get out of here.
04:20Are we up?
04:25Why don't you come through and have a look for yourself?
04:28Oh, yeah, the queue's outside the door.
04:31No, Eric.
04:31I was being sarcastic.
04:33I've sold a bottle of milk to Charles and a packet of biscuits to myself just to give me
04:37something to do.
04:40Listen, look.
04:41I'm missing Frankie's bedtime for this and Vanessa can't look after her every night.
04:44So if you really do want to keep opening late, then you're going to have to get someone
04:47else to cover it.
04:49Whoa, hang on.
04:50Got to go.
04:51There's a sudden rush on.
04:52Have you seen me dad?
04:54Uh, I've had to see anyone.
04:55Dylan.
04:56Oh.
04:57Are you?
04:59Ah, all right.
05:00Don't worry.
05:01Um, well, let's meet back at the house and we'll work out what to do next.
05:05All right.
05:06Bye then.
05:08Has he gone missing?
05:08I don't know.
05:09Uh, I don't think so.
05:10Not like before, you know, but, uh, I can't help but worry.
05:14Hey, he's going to be fine.
05:16If you see him, you call us straight away.
05:17Yeah, and please, whatever you do, don't sell him any boots.
05:20Okay, well, I'll be closing up in a couple of minutes and I need to get back for Frankie
05:24or I'd say I could help look.
05:26I don't think it's time to send out the search passes just quite yet.
05:30He's probably gone for a war.
05:31He's probably trying to clear his head.
05:32Yeah, yeah.
05:32Sorry, we're just being a bit jumpy, that's all.
05:35Well, that's hardly surprising after what he's been through.
05:37Thanks anyway.
05:42He won't have gone far.
05:44He didn't go far before, did he?
05:46But I've done it again.
05:48He's obviously struggling.
05:49I just pretend it's nothing and everything's going to be magically all all right.
05:52Yeah, because it is.
05:54Mandy!
05:55He was drinking before breakfast.
05:59I should have put a stop to it straight away.
06:00I should have talked to him and I should have found out what was going on in his head.
06:03We did what was best for him, Matt.
06:04We gave him the space.
06:06But he's too vulnerable for that.
06:08I've let him down again.
06:09No, don't you dare.
06:11You've done more for him than anyone would.
06:13You've supported him and he knows that.
06:15So stop beating yourself up, right?
06:18I'm all right.
06:20You know I am.
06:22Come on.
06:26This is being positive.
06:27Let's get another scan done.
06:29Do we know who came in with her?
06:30The kids.
06:31Well, Arthur is.
06:33Gabby's a stepdover.
06:34Rich, can you go and find them?
06:35Give them a quick update.
06:36They can come and see her if they want, but warn them that she's not awake yet.
06:41It's going to be a very long night if you don't get your brain into gear.
06:45Flapping around like a first year is totally unacceptable.
06:48Your patient was in respiratory depression.
06:49I know.
06:50I'm sorry.
06:52It's just a bit of a shock hearing Arthur shout for his mum like that.
06:58For a second, it made me think of mum.
07:02Mine, I mean, when she, er...
07:05When she was here.
07:08Jacob, I know you've been through a lot,
07:09but you need to be able to deal with whatever or whoever comes into this department.
07:14I'm sorry.
07:15I do normally.
07:16Every time.
07:18If you're not coping.
07:19No, I am.
07:20It was a one-off, I swear.
07:21I hope so.
07:22Because you're not always going to have Richard on hand to rescue you.
07:33Is she all right?
07:34We've stabilised her.
07:35We still need to do more tests.
07:37When's she going to wake up?
07:38That's a bit of a waiting game.
07:40She needs to rest, but there are no obvious signs of internal injuries.
07:44But the CT scan will show if there's anything that we need to be worried about.
07:47And we need to check for underlying issues
07:49and see if anything could have caused her to fall.
07:53Right, I need to phone Nicola.
07:54Tell her what's going on.
07:56You can stay if you want.
07:58We need to see to other patients,
08:00but we will be keeping a close eye on her.
08:02Regular monitoring, please.
08:10I know it's scary seeing her like this.
08:12All the machines wondering what's going on.
08:15She's in the best place.
08:18She'll be okay.
08:23When's the doctor coming through?
08:25Why aren't they seeing me?
08:27Hello again.
08:28Like I keep saying, they're very busy.
08:32There.
08:32You all right?
08:33What's happened?
08:34They all keep ignoring me.
08:35I mean, my hand hurts and I can't sleep.
08:39I just need to sleep.
08:40You can help me, can't you?
08:43Is Paddy not with you?
08:45I need my hand sorted, see?
08:47I need some pills to help me sleep.
08:49I mean, Manpreet could have stopped all this,
08:50but she wouldn't listen.
08:54Do you know how long it's going to be?
08:56A few hours, yeah.
08:57Please, you have to help.
08:59You have to.
08:59You can help.
09:00Hey, I'm just a student.
09:01I can't really...
09:02Yes, you can!
09:03Look, why isn't anybody listening?
09:04I just need someone to help me sleep.
09:06I'll give Paddy a call.
09:07And what's the use of that?
09:08Just take a seat for a second.
09:10Now, so everybody keeps saying to me,
09:11just sit down like I'm some kind of kid.
09:13I mean, there's other people coming in here
09:15and they're going straight throat.
09:16I mean, people have arrived after me.
09:18I mean, that's not fair.
09:20I mean, no one's interested.
09:22Why would they be interested?
09:24I'm just invisible.
09:25That's what I am.
09:26I'm just invisible.
09:26I were for months and months,
09:28but it never used to be like that
09:29because I was somebody.
09:31I was somebody.
09:32I wasn't nobody before.
09:33I was...
09:33I was a bear wolf.
09:34I weren't to lose.
09:35I weren't to nothing.
09:36I was somebody.
09:36People looked up to me.
09:37Yes, they're not missing by a doctor.
09:40They're not sitting here,
09:40not standing and waiting,
09:41waiting for people all the time.
09:46Wow, proper stealth mode, that.
09:48You seem to be treating this like some kind of joke.
09:50You do realise how close we were to getting caught.
09:52Yeah, except we weren't, though.
09:53The cops have no chance.
09:55Not with my sharp eyes and your sharp driving.
09:57I mean, what a team.
09:59Right, we got lucky.
09:59It's nothing to be proud of.
10:00Oh, come on.
10:01You were loving it just as much as I was.
10:03So what happens now?
10:04Because it can't just sit here.
10:05I'm guessing you've got a buyer lined up.
10:06Well, yeah, I did.
10:07But seeing as the whole point of this was to make some quick cash,
10:10the buyer's going to have to wear it
10:11because this isn't going anywhere until the heat dies down.
10:14Well, how long's that going to take?
10:15I don't know.
10:15A few days, a few weeks.
10:17I just said I don't know.
10:18Right, well, you need the cash.
10:19It's no use just sitting in a barn.
10:20Oh, right, so have you got a better idea?
10:22I mean, preferably one that doesn't involve us getting caught.
10:25No, I didn't think so.
10:26So I will have to put some feelers out to see if I can sort it.
10:29Right, and then will you bring me with you to do the deal?
10:31No, you're not going anywhere, are you?
10:35Come on, I need to learn.
10:36Sarah, I've already said this is not happening again.
10:41Yeah, right.
10:43Just go home, Sarah.
10:47Right, bed 15's under ICU review,
10:49so if you can wait for them to come down, then that'd be great.
10:51OK.
10:54You have to wait for the doctor, you shouldn't be back here.
10:57Now, if you just get me some pills, then I'll go away.
11:00Right, er...
11:00And can you do something about me hand, because I've got it cut?
11:03You see, the thing is, I can't prescribe anything, Bear.
11:05I'm not qualified yet.
11:07But you're here to help me, and that's why I'm here.
11:10Right, erm...
11:11Now, why don't you come wait in here for a bit,
11:13take a seat, and then I'll go see if anyone's free.
11:16No, you're not fobbing me off again.
11:17Bear!
11:18No!
11:19Ah!
11:20Bear!
11:20I can't sleep!
11:21I can't sleep!
11:24I can't sleep!
11:26Ah!
11:28Ah!
11:29There you go!
11:30Ah!
11:33I'm sorry.
11:36I'm sorry.
11:39Are you OK?
11:41What's happened?
11:43Er...
11:43What have you done?
11:45I...I don't know.
11:47It's OK.
11:48I just...
11:49I just...
11:50It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's OK. It's OK. It's all right.
11:56Here, it's all right. It's all right. It's all right. But no...
12:01There's no...
12:09You're OK. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. I don't mind.
12:13Ow!
12:13Ah!
12:19Sp��ê³
12:19Theseconomics
12:19It's....
12:19Oh.
12:23I told you to go home.
12:25Look, I know you're not going to stop, no matter how much you try and convince me.
12:27Well, I am, because it's not worth taking the risk.
12:29Right, so that one car, if you even manage to sell it,
12:31is going to be enough to save the farm, pay the wages and buy all the supplies?
12:34It's a start. And that's going to have to do for now.
12:37Yeah, for now, so you are going to do more.
12:38Yeah, but not with you, because I can't have you getting in trouble.
12:41Hang on, I was the one that saved us from being caught in the first place.
12:43If I hadn't had turned back and seen those cops...
12:44Yeah, then I would have, because I wouldn't have been distracted by you.
12:47I just, I can't have you getting involved.
12:50I just want to help, though. Look, I know earlier you thought I was messing around,
12:54and maybe I was a bit, but I know you're not doing this for fun.
12:57You need the cash, and you can't do it on your own.
12:58How many times?
12:59Okay, I'm sorry, but it's just, I know things are tough with the farm,
13:03and then with your cancer on top, it's...
13:05Sorry, still not talking about the cancer.
13:08Please just let me help you. I promise I'll start taking it more seriously.
13:12Sarah, it's over.
13:15And I don't want to talk about it again.
13:19Right, well, you know where I am if you change your mind.
13:21Or if you need anything else, even just someone to listen.
13:24Because you will need that at some point, no matter what you say, you won't.
13:28I've already told you I'm fine.
13:30But thank you.
13:40So sorry. We didn't even know where he was until you phoned.
13:43I don't think he knew what he was doing.
13:45Don't get me calm, have you? You know he wouldn't have hurt you on purpose.
13:47We still can't allow assaults to go unchecked.
13:49No, no, no. We know, but he's been going through a really difficult time.
13:54I'm afraid I had no choice. The police have already been called.
13:58But your father is clearly not well, so I'm arranging for a psychiatric assessment.
14:03We should have taken him to see Lucy yesterday. We knew he wasn't right.
14:05Yeah, he's been having counselling. Not that it's been working, though.
14:09We'll do what we can to help him.
14:11You sure you don't want to go home?
14:13No, er, I'm okay. No harm done.
14:18I'll let you know when the psychiatry team get here.
14:20Let's go and have a quick chat.
14:28Thanks very much.
14:29Erm, would you mind waiting outside for a minute?
14:33What are you doing, Dad?
14:37I'm so sorry.
14:40I would just...
14:43I needed some tablets.
14:47Yeah.
14:48Well, someone's gonna come and see you.
14:50And talk to you about how you're feeling.
14:53You know, like what Lucy did.
14:56I tried to tell him that I can't sleep.
15:02Keeps going round and rounding me head.
15:04What I did.
15:08Killing Ray.
15:09Hey.
15:10Try not to upset yourself, right?
15:12Okay.
15:15You need to know.
15:16The police are on the way, but it's nothing to be scared of.
15:20Just...
15:20Tell them that you're struggling.
15:22When we get you home, we're gonna book you more counselling sessions.
15:26Mandy.
15:29What if they don't let him go home?
15:31Of course they will.
15:33But they have to...
15:34He wasn't thinking straight.
15:35Anyone can see that.
15:38Hey.
15:39We're gonna get through this, yeah?
15:42Promise ya.
15:52First things first, if you start to feel unwell, you need to let me know.
15:56I'm okay.
15:57But I will.
15:58Incidents like this are naturally very unsettling.
16:01So, er, perhaps you'd like to explain why you put yourself in such a dangerous situation.
16:06Well?
16:08Well, er, he was upset.
16:11I was trying to help.
16:13So, you decided to treat...
16:15No, I was just...
16:16An unstable, vulnerable patient without any supervision because you were trying to help.
16:22A patient, and I can hardly believe that I'm having to say this after what happened last year,
16:26a patient you are clearly well acquainted with.
16:28No, this was different.
16:29Well, that's true.
16:31At least you weren't misinforming his nearest and dearest about his unfortunate demise.
16:37Thought I could keep him gone.
16:39No.
16:39You didn't think.
16:40You didn't think at all.
16:41In fact, for a supposedly intelligent young man, you really are remarkably stupid.
16:46You cannot let personal relationships affect patient care.
16:49Well, I was...
16:50I was only trying to clean him up a bit.
16:52You seem to think the fact that you know someone means you can ignore all our protocols.
16:56But if you carry on behaving so irresponsibly in my department, I will have you removed from the course.
17:01Do you understand?
17:04Are you absolutely certain?
17:05Or do I need to repeat myself a few times before it sinks in?
17:09I understand.
17:10I hope so.
17:13You'll need to give a statement to the police when they arrive.
17:16I don't want to make things worse for him.
17:18We have policies for a reason, Jacob.
17:20It's how we protect ourselves and our colleagues.
17:23And I know it's not easy, but it is important for everyone, including Mr Halston.
17:27Sometimes it's the only way to get people the help they need.
17:38Mum, I'm so sorry.
17:41I don't even know if you can hear me right now, but I never meant to hurt you.
17:50Dorsey will be happy.
17:52Getting a sleepover with Thomas at Nicola's.
17:55I bet that's chaos.
17:59Jacob said to talk to her.
18:05Laura?
18:07Laura?
18:07Laura?
18:08Hey, it's me.
18:12Can you go and get someone?
18:14Arthur, go.
18:17Can we get some help, please?
18:19Listen, you're in hospital.
18:22She's waking up.
18:24I'll fetch a doctor.
18:26Oh.
18:27Oh, I'm so glad you're awake.
18:29Arthur's here as well.
18:31You know, you gave us a right fright.
18:33We thought we were gonna lose you.
18:36What are you doing over there?
18:39Oh, like...
18:40So, can you remember anything at all?
18:42Arthur said that he found you at the bottom of the stairs.
18:45Yeah, I wish I can tell her, yeah.
18:48So you can't remember anything?
18:49No, I just blacked out.
18:52Maybe the doctor can tell us, yeah.
19:02All done?
19:03Yeah.
19:04You seem pretty understanding.
19:06He's gonna hang around until the side of the team's been.
19:09Yeah, I bet he is.
19:10He knows how many cups of tea that could take.
19:12Um, I know how hard that must have been for you,
19:14but you're doing well.
19:17Anyway, my little protégés,
19:20an eventful shift so far,
19:21and now,
19:22the most important thing in a busy medic's life.
19:27Caffeine.
19:28Take yourselves to the canteen for half an hour.
19:31Really?
19:31Yeah, it's a difficult job.
19:33Sometimes dangerous.
19:34I don't want any of my students burning out,
19:37or in your case, setting fire to yourself.
19:40Go on then, both of you.
19:42Recharge your batteries.
19:46Did she give you L?
19:47Nah, it wasn't that bad.
19:49Such a bad liar.
19:51Well, it's terrible timing too.
19:52I know she's picking the winner of her mentorship programme soon.
19:55It's really the right word.
19:57I'll catch you in there.
19:58Yep.
20:28Pat, have you seen Dad?
20:29What do you mean?
20:30Where did he go?
20:30Well, he went to the loo, and I went to look for him,
20:32because he was gone ages,
20:33and there's no sign of him.
20:35Well, did he not go with the security guard?
20:37No, he's had his head turned up.
20:40Excuse me, mate.
20:41Did you see where my dad went?
20:42Nah, sorry, mate.
20:44Flippin' useless.
20:45Mandy, he could be anywhere.
20:46Are you sure you haven't seen it?
20:47Mandy, please.
20:48Mandy, it is dark, and it's cold,
20:50and he hasn't got his phone with him.
20:52Why did I tell him the flippin' police were coming?
20:55Because he needed to know.
20:56No!
20:56And what have they found him now?
20:58We'll get him done for assault,
21:00we'll break his bail conditions,
21:01and then they'll lock him up.
21:04Mistake of him.
21:06I'm scared, Mandy.
