Short filmTranscript
00:00:00A junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a little bit of trauma like this?
00:00:03This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:00:05What you just did will go down in the history box.
00:00:08Who is this guy?
00:00:09He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:00:11New management, new standards.
00:00:13Sleeping after a shift?
00:00:15You are fired.
00:00:16I just worked all night.
00:00:17Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:00:19He's the one.
00:00:20Didn't I fire you too already?
00:00:24Get your hand off my gun arm.
00:00:25We're done, Adrian.
00:00:27I need someone with a future.
00:00:29Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:00:34This isn't about money.
00:00:35Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?
00:00:40These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:00:42With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:00:45He's dead!
00:00:46Uh, why are you just standing there?
00:00:48Do something!
00:00:48If you need help, just ask.
00:00:50All you have to do is to know what you did.
00:00:52A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured
00:01:02patients flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency department.
00:01:05The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Vail's surgical team.
00:01:10Their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:01:15Facials crashing!
00:01:16We need an attending surgeon now!
00:01:18All the hours are full.
00:01:19We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:01:21Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:01:24I can't leave this one.
00:01:25Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:01:26We need another attending surgeon.
00:01:27Everyone else is in the EOR!
00:01:45Need a hand?
00:01:46A new IR.
00:01:48You just started this month.
00:01:50Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level 1 trauma like this!
00:01:54The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:56Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
00:01:58The patient's yours.
00:02:05Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:02:08Whipple?
00:02:09For trauma?
00:02:10That's insane.
00:02:11Trust me.
00:02:12Metz and bomb scissors.
00:02:15Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:02:19That procedure will take hours.
00:02:22The patient won't survive.
00:02:23Bobicottery.
00:02:24Watch.
00:02:25He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:02:26The bleeding.
00:02:27It's under control.
00:02:28But how did he...?
00:02:29Tilk suture.
00:02:30Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:02:34I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:35Almost done.
00:02:36I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:37Almost done.
00:02:38I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:39I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:40I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:41I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:46I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:47I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:48Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:02:53I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:57You've never seen anything like this.
00:02:58I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:59Almost done.
00:03:00This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:04This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:19Jesus, Adrian.
00:03:20What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:03:23I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:03:26That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:03:29Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:03:31What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:34Wait. I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:03:38who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:42Is that you?
00:03:49Final suture.
00:03:51Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:58Doctor!
00:04:00The nurses, they said you did it.
00:04:04And you, you actually did.
00:04:09Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:12Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable,
00:04:15that she only had weeks to live, but...
00:04:17You...
00:04:18You saved my Catherine.
00:04:21She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:04:23Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:25We need you at Vail.
00:04:26My hospital.
00:04:27Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:31Right now, we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:04:35It's gonna take hours.
00:04:37Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:04:40I'll take over from here.
00:04:42Okay.
00:04:44Good work, everyone.
00:04:44Good work, everybody.
00:05:14They're all stable.
00:05:18Every single one of them, stabilized.
00:05:24Oh, sun's coming up.
00:05:27You must have operated all night.
00:05:29You're a machine.
00:05:31Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:34All right.
00:05:35It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:05:44Hey, you.
00:05:56Hey, yourself.
00:05:59I've been operating all night.
00:06:02I see every single patient in that pileup.
00:06:05What you did was extraordinary.
00:06:07How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:06:11Because I know you.
00:06:12Better than anyone.
00:06:20Goldberry.
00:06:21Your favorite?
00:06:23You remembered.
00:06:25Where's your dad?
00:06:27You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:06:31I know it's only been a month, but...
00:06:35It just feels different.
00:06:42It's the third time this week.
00:06:46Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:06:48Hmm.
00:06:50So who's this marksman guy?
00:06:51His surgical skills are unreal.
00:06:53Not sure.
00:06:54I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:56I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:59With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:07:02What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:07:12Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:07:16Who is this guy?
00:07:21Preston Vale, President Vale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:07:24He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife, who just recovered from an experimental pancreatico duodenectomy.
00:07:31I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:07:39Hard to tell, based on your behavior.
00:07:41Sir, about that...
00:07:42Save it!
00:07:44Parker, you couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:07:49You're fired.
00:07:51Clear out your office.
00:07:52New management means new standards.
00:07:55It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:07:57Attention in everybody's attention now.
00:08:03If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:08:10No complications, no deaths.
00:08:12This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:08:17Who does he think he is, Dr. House?
00:08:20What is this?
00:08:22Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:08:24Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:08:29This is a hospital.
00:08:32We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:08:36That was for my residency direction.
00:08:38Oh, cry me a river.
00:08:40Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:08:46You're fired.
00:08:47Excuse me?
00:08:48Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop, just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:08:53Yes, sir.
00:08:55Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:58That was good.
00:09:00Let's go.
00:09:05Well, well, well.
00:09:06What do we have here?
00:09:09Sleeping after a shift?
00:09:11Rise and shine, superstar.
00:09:13Did I order a wake-up call?
00:09:20No, you didn't.
00:09:21Yes, but here's one anyway.
00:09:23You are fired.
00:09:27Are you serious?
00:09:28You're firing me?
00:09:30Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:09:34Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:09:37Fiona, what's his position here?
00:09:39He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:09:44What's he make?
00:09:46$700,000.
00:09:47That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:09:49$700,000?
00:09:51Are you insane?
00:09:52You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:09:56This hospital is being scammed.
00:09:58I just worked all night, okay?
00:10:00I'm just taking a nap.
00:10:01Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:10:03I've seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:10:08What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?
00:10:11Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:10:16Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:10:20My career comes first.
00:10:22Boy, bye.
00:10:24There must be some clerical error.
00:10:27His credentials.
00:10:29Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:10:31Fiona?
00:10:34Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D.
00:10:40Fire.
00:10:42Clear out your office.
00:10:44Clear out your locker.
00:10:45Or get the hell out of my hospital.
00:10:48This is a mistake, okay?
00:10:49You need to check the surgical lock.
00:10:51You don't get to wear that.
00:10:52What?
00:10:52I see.
00:11:02Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:11:04You don't understand.
00:11:06He's the one who...
00:11:06Didn't I fire you two already?
00:11:09Beat it.
00:11:10Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:11:12Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:11:13I understand.
00:11:34Hospital politics.
00:11:36I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:11:40Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:11:42I'll be waiting.
00:11:52You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:59The board won't like this.
00:12:01Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:12:03Patient care will suffer.
00:12:05Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:12:06I intend to wield it.
00:12:09Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?
00:12:13Your little scam artist situation ship?
00:12:16No, Preston.
00:12:17He means nothing to me.
00:12:19Really.
00:12:20I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:12:22Let's be clear about your future here.
00:12:24Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
00:12:29Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:12:35The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:12:39Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded
00:12:42who's in charge around here.
00:12:44Hey, Dad.
00:12:53What's wrong?
00:12:54Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:12:56She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:13:01And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:13:04Of course.
00:13:04What is it?
00:13:04That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman, whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:13:11Dr. Marksman?
00:13:12Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:13:15Get out of my hospital.
00:13:17Christ.
00:13:18The resident I just fired?
00:13:21Preston?
00:13:22Are you there?
00:13:24Check the staff roster.
00:13:26See if we have another Marksman working for us here.
00:13:30I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:13:33He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life,
00:13:36and he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:13:40The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:13:49Ah, yes, I see now.
00:13:50There's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:13:53Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:13:57Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:14:01Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:14:04Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:14:05That's our man.
00:14:06There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:14:11Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:14:13Do me a favor.
00:14:14Fire him.
00:14:16Already done, Dad.
00:14:16I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:14:20Thank God.
00:14:21Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:14:23Good work, son.
00:14:25I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:14:29Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:14:31I got everything else under control.
00:14:32See?
00:14:40Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:14:44Now, about your career trajectory.
00:14:48Mr. Vale, sir.
00:14:49Can't you see I'm busy?
00:14:51Multiple traumas incoming.
00:14:52The six-car pileup.
00:14:53You fired half our surgery team.
00:14:55What's your point?
00:14:56ER is crashing.
00:14:57We've no one left who can handle it.
00:14:59Give me the situation.
00:15:07Now.
00:15:08Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
00:15:11Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleed, sir.
00:15:14We're losing patients.
00:15:16What are our options?
00:15:17There might be one solution.
00:15:19Well, spit it out.
00:15:21Dr. Marksman.
00:15:22He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:15:24If we can get him back here.
00:15:26Marksman.
00:15:27Right.
00:15:27That's the man we need.
00:15:28Fiona, call him.
00:15:29Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:15:31The genius surgeon.
00:15:33The one I didn't fire.
00:15:34Keep up.
00:15:39What the hell?
00:15:41Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:42The idiot left us research notes.
00:16:01Modified trauma protocol.
00:16:04Wait.
00:16:06These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:16:08Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:16:10Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:16:16Hello?
00:16:17Dr. Marksman.
00:16:18Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:16:21Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:16:24I'm on my way.
00:16:26With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:16:33They'll make me department head.
00:16:36And I can finally make seven figures.
00:16:44Well?
00:16:45Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:16:46Thank God.
00:16:48Thank God.
00:16:57Now, about your loyalty.
00:17:01Adrian meant nothing.
00:17:02I was using him to advance my career in my future.
00:17:07That's my girl.
00:17:16Beyond a shift in it an hour ago,
00:17:18the boss's son is up to something.
00:17:22To hell with this.
00:17:23I'm going up.
00:17:23Piece of shit.
00:17:43Get your hand off my girl.
00:17:47Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:17:49You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:17:54You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:17:58I can choose who I want.
00:17:59And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:18:02You pathetic loser.
00:18:07Oh, my God.
00:18:09Oh, my God.
00:18:19We're done, Adrian.
00:18:21Ancient history.
00:18:23Are you serious?
00:18:25Just like that.
00:18:27Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:18:32Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:18:34Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:18:36I need someone with a future.
00:18:38Not someone who sleeps while patience are dying.
00:18:45Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:18:47It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:18:52Oh.
00:18:55Look at us, Adrian.
00:18:56I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:18:59And you?
00:19:02Just a slacker.
00:19:04And scrubs.
00:19:05You're washed up, marksman.
00:19:07Perhaps try nursing.
00:19:09I hear they're always hiring.
00:19:11Fiona, I met you here, and it made me want to stay.
00:19:15I thought we could build a family together.
00:19:17Get over yourself.
00:19:20You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:19:24President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:19:31We're done.
00:19:32I'm not done.
00:19:34But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:19:39You can count on that.
00:19:41No, no, no.
00:19:44Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:19:46Your troubles are just getting started.
00:19:52Who authorized you to be here?
00:19:55Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:19:58we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident,
00:20:01and the situation is completely under control.
00:20:04You're Dr. Marksman.
00:20:06Ah, yes.
00:20:06The very same.
00:20:08My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:20:11Harvard Medical, was it?
00:20:12These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:20:19As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:20:24Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:20:28He was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table.
00:20:33Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:20:43Dr. Hart.
00:20:45Incredible news.
00:20:47Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:20:51he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:20:55When?
00:20:56Less than an hour ago.
00:20:57Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:21:01Huh.
00:21:02Amazing.
00:21:03I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon
00:21:08was fired by his submental son.
00:21:11With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:21:16Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:21:20We'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:21:22Full department autonomy.
00:21:25Research funding.
00:21:26State-of-the-art facilities.
00:21:29And if necessary, my personal involvement.
00:21:34His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:21:38Have my car brought round.
00:21:40I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:21:43And Adrian Marksman?
00:21:44He's leaving with me.
00:21:52Alphesans.
00:21:53What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:21:56Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:21:58A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:22:00The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:22:02Yet you stand there denying it.
00:22:04This is crazy.
00:22:05You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:22:08And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,
00:22:14you blame me.
00:22:16The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:22:23If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be, you would still have a job.
00:22:27I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:22:32Security, please detain him.
00:22:39What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:22:41Either confess to medical malfeasance, or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:22:48Adrien, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:22:53What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:22:56You better confess now, or we'll do everything in your power to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:23:02Lana, go ahead.
00:23:04Do your worst.
00:23:06Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.
00:23:11You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:23:15Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:23:20Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:23:24After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:23:27Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:23:30Not after what he did to our patients.
00:23:33I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:23:36As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital
00:23:40and every medical institute in the country.
00:23:43Plan's in motion, Adrien.
00:23:45Do you know what that means?
00:23:47It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.
00:23:53I have one question before I go.
00:23:56Does your father know you fired me?
00:23:58My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.
00:24:04You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?
00:24:08Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:24:12Immediately.
00:24:12Yes, doctor.
00:24:14Right away, sir.
00:24:17That's quite enough.
00:24:30Let him go.
00:24:31Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as Chief of Surgical Innovation at Hart Medical Center.
00:24:42I know you.
00:24:43You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.
00:24:48That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.
00:24:53Vivian, I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium, like four or five years ago.
00:24:57What are you doing here?
00:24:59Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.
00:25:02Wait.
00:25:04Wait.
00:25:05Are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?
00:25:09He was sleeping during rounds.
00:25:11Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?
00:25:14Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.
00:25:21Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.
00:25:37He compromised the patient's safety, and...
00:25:40I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, doctor...
00:25:43Marksman.
00:25:44David Marksman.
00:25:45I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.
00:25:50After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.
00:25:55His negligence led to the problem.
00:25:58His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:26:02Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:26:08Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:26:13Of course I consulted my father.
00:26:16He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.
00:26:22Dangerous shortcuts?
00:26:24Is that what President Vail really said?
00:26:27His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.
00:26:30President Vail was the one that recruited me.
00:26:32This makes absolutely no sense.
00:26:34Please, Adrian.
00:26:35The President wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:26:39Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.
00:26:45Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute.
00:26:49To any of you.
00:26:50Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:26:57Well, I've...
00:26:58Full department autonomy.
00:26:59Protected research time.
00:27:01A surgical fellowship in your name.
00:27:04And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:07And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:09And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:10And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:11And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:12And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:13And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:14And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:15And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:16And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:17And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:18And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:19And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:20And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:21And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:22And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:23And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:24And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:25And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:26And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:27And a seven-figure salary package.
00:27:28And Cash, Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:27:44Hopefully this shows you.
00:27:46I mean what I say.
00:27:47Chief of Surgery?
00:27:57You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:28:02Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs?
00:28:07This is absurd.
00:28:09He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.
00:28:11And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:28:15The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:28:21Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:28:26This isn't about money.
00:28:28Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:28:33She's offering herself up to him.
00:28:35She can't do that.
00:28:37Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:28:39At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves.
00:28:44including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:28:50And I do mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:28:55Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation,
00:28:58you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history of negligence.
00:29:05My father confirmed it himself.
00:29:06Is that precisely what Nelson Vail told you?
00:29:10His exact words.
00:29:13Negligence, Serge?
00:29:14What are those?
00:29:18Personal gifts from your father?
00:29:22My fellowship offer?
00:29:25My personal research lab?
00:29:27My surgical team?
00:29:28I'm leaving it all behind.
00:29:32You can tell President Vail that as of this moment,
00:29:35Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn
00:29:37from Vail Hospital
00:29:38and all of its affiliated institutions.
00:29:41You know what?
00:29:42Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:29:44You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:29:47The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:29:50Oh, your stupidity, it's just astonishing.
00:29:56You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:30:00This man is a life-saving artist.
00:30:06Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition
00:30:09between your center and Vail Hospital.
00:30:12Yeah, look, I'll be real.
00:30:14We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:30:16Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:30:18Take me on, and I'll transform Hart
00:30:21into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:30:25Look at yourself, Adrian.
00:30:27Offering your skills to a struggling clinic.
00:30:30How pathetically desperate.
00:30:32Oh, a backstabbing bottom feeder like you
00:30:36has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.
00:30:39How dare you talk to me like that!
00:30:42Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage
00:30:45to my hospital's reputation.
00:30:47As the responsible party, I demand that you
00:30:50issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals
00:30:54and with an explanation to every affected Vail Hospital patient.
00:31:00Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board
00:31:03revokes your license permanently.
00:31:05That accusation isn't just baseness.
00:31:07It's absurd.
00:31:09What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?
00:31:11You've got no choice but to sign this confession.
00:31:14Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.
00:31:16If you insist on pursuing this vendetta,
00:31:19have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:31:22We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:31:27If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic
00:31:32with everything that I've got.
00:31:34Let's go.
00:31:36One more second and this cesspool's going to make me physically ill.
00:31:39Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment
00:31:51on those second-rate practitioners.
00:31:54David, you've proven your loyalty.
00:31:57The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.
00:32:00This is, this is extraordinary.
00:32:04I, thank you.
00:32:05I, uh, I, I am honored beyond words.
00:32:10Don't forget about me, Preston.
00:32:13Don't worry, babe.
00:32:14You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:32:19How exciting.
00:32:21Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath
00:32:24that I will not disappoint you.
00:32:27Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.
00:32:29Six critical patients incoming.
00:32:31Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:32:33Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:35Shit, I'm screwed.
00:32:36Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques
00:32:39is still in my office.
00:32:41If Preston finds out, I stole it
00:32:43and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:32:45I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol
00:32:49that I invented myself.
00:32:51These techniques are revolutionary.
00:32:53I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:32:57It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:58You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:33:01No need to bore me with the specifics.
00:33:02I trust your brilliance.
00:33:04Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:33:06With you leading my surgical team,
00:33:08I can focus on what really matters.
00:33:10Hospital expansion.
00:33:13Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.
00:33:15Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:33:25Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:33:32Glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:33:34Yeah.
00:33:35Oh, sorry.
00:33:37Who's this?
00:33:37Nelson Vail speaking.
00:33:42President Vail, Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:33:46I am calling to let you know that as of this morning,
00:33:49Hart Medical Center has officially entered
00:33:51the experimental surgery arena.
00:33:53Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:33:57Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:34:01This is merely a professional courtesy call,
00:34:03not an invitation for debate.
00:34:05Now, just...
00:34:06What is that conniving bitch plotting?
00:34:14She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:34:18Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war
00:34:21she has absolutely no chance of winning?
00:34:28Unless...
00:34:28Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:34:35Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:34:38Dad, relax.
00:34:40I fired the other one,
00:34:41that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:34:44Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center
00:34:47believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.
00:34:52Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart
00:34:55into a false sense of reality.
00:34:57There's no way a mediocre doctor
00:34:58can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:35:01I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:35:05But in reality,
00:35:06she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:35:09So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:35:11She thinks she's hired genius
00:35:14behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:35:17That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:35:19Impressive, son.
00:35:21You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:35:23I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:35:25I think you're ready to take complete control
00:35:28of our experimental surgical division.
00:35:32Dad, this is everything I've worked for.
00:35:36We'll get to work immediately.
00:35:38We're going to expose Hart Medical Center
00:35:41for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:35:45Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:35:49I won't let you down.
00:35:49Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:35:56Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:35:58Do you really think it's wise to entrust him
00:36:00with our most prestigious program?
00:36:03I would never take a risk like this
00:36:05if Preston was our only asset.
00:36:08Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:36:12You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:36:15Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:36:17Exactly.
00:36:18And all I need to do is stay hands-off
00:36:22and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:36:27As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital,
00:36:31Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:36:35Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation
00:36:38and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman,
00:36:44what we have to do now is sit back
00:36:47and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:36:57So, now that you've seen the surgical department,
00:37:00what do you think?
00:37:03It's not bad.
00:37:04It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:37:06What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:37:12It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:37:16You too.
00:37:18We need to expand.
00:37:20It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:37:23Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon
00:37:27Preston Vale fired.
00:37:32We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:37:34And I always find the best one.
00:37:45I'm going to start recruiting.
00:37:48Good.
00:37:50The faster we rise,
00:37:52the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:37:55This better be good.
00:38:10Mr. Vale,
00:38:11you wanted to see me?
00:38:17My father
00:38:17has granted me complete authority
00:38:19over our experimental surgical department.
00:38:21given your new position
00:38:23as chief of surgery,
00:38:25I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:38:27Mr. Vale, I, uh...
00:38:29Is there an issue with that?
00:38:31No, absolutely not.
00:38:33The budget for innovation is astronomical,
00:38:36and President Vale
00:38:37has already handed control to his son?
00:38:40If I oversee these procedures,
00:38:41I could divert significant resources
00:38:43to my personal research.
00:38:46Mr. Vale,
00:38:46you can trust me completely.
00:38:49I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:38:54Preston,
00:38:54we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:38:56Two attending surgeons
00:38:57just submitted their resignation simultaneously.
00:38:59The department can't possibly
00:39:00maintain its caseload.
00:39:01What?
00:39:02They both resigned at once?
00:39:03What was their explanation?
00:39:04They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:39:06But there's talk they were recruited
00:39:07by a former Vale physician,
00:39:09along with the three other surgeons
00:39:10you fired before.
00:39:11Former physician,
00:39:12Adrian Marksman,
00:39:13this has his saboteur signature
00:39:15all over it.
00:39:16Preston,
00:39:17what's our contingency plan?
00:39:18The surgical department
00:39:19is severely understaffed.
00:39:21If any more surgeons leave,
00:39:22patients will suffer.
00:39:23Okay, everybody
00:39:24needs to remain calm.
00:39:27You still have me.
00:39:29I can rebuild this department.
00:39:31Ah, yes.
00:39:33With your stellar reputation,
00:39:34we should be able to get
00:39:35the best of the best.
00:39:36Exactly.
00:39:37So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:39:40Let him go.
00:39:42I'll make some calls
00:39:43to Cedar Sinai
00:39:44and UCLA.
00:39:46Good work, Marksman.
00:39:52This is working out perfectly.
00:39:54Now I can install
00:39:55my own allies
00:39:56in key positions.
00:39:57Soon,
00:39:58I'll control
00:39:58the entire hospital's
00:39:59medical direction.
00:40:00It's an honor to meet you,
00:40:25Dr. Hart.
00:40:25This is Dr. Parker here.
00:40:31He's a triple board
00:40:32certified surgeon.
00:40:33And soon,
00:40:34he'll be the head
00:40:34of trauma surgery.
00:40:36This is Dr. Rose,
00:40:37Chen,
00:40:38Rose,
00:40:39and Thomas.
00:40:40All consummate professionals.
00:40:42My most trusted colleagues
00:40:44back at Vail.
00:40:44With this surgical team,
00:40:49Hart Medical can revolutionize
00:40:51surgical care
00:40:52all across the country.
00:40:54Actually,
00:40:55the whole world.
00:40:56We're eager to begin,
00:40:57Dr. Hart.
00:40:58Well,
00:40:59welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:41:02I am thrilled
00:41:03to have surgeons
00:41:04of your caliber
00:41:05joining us,
00:41:06but
00:41:06I do need
00:41:07to be transparent.
00:41:09We have got
00:41:10considerable ground
00:41:11to cover
00:41:11before we can truly
00:41:12challenge Vail Hospital's
00:41:13dominance.
00:41:14Have no fear,
00:41:15Dr. Hart.
00:41:16With Adrian leading
00:41:17our team,
00:41:17we'll be three steps
00:41:18ahead of anything
00:41:20Vail attempts.
00:41:21Yes,
00:41:21but Vail has already
00:41:23implemented Adrian's
00:41:24breakthrough surgical
00:41:25procedure protocols.
00:41:27Yeah,
00:41:27about that.
00:41:29It's a preliminary version.
00:41:30If they continue
00:41:31to develop this approach
00:41:32without modification...
00:41:33Then what?
00:41:34A lot of deaths.
00:41:36A lot of lawsuits.
00:41:37A lot of patients
00:41:38could be harmed
00:41:39or worse.
00:41:40These procedures
00:41:41weren't ready
00:41:41for widespread implementation
00:41:43without proper refinement.
00:41:45Those techniques
00:41:45require precise calibration
00:41:47and specialized training.
00:41:49Without that foundation...
00:41:51We're talking about
00:41:51serious complications.
00:41:54Preventable harm.
00:41:55Our first priority
00:41:55has to be patient safety.
00:41:57We need to perfect
00:41:58these procedures
00:41:59and then we can find
00:42:01a way to prevent Vail
00:42:02from continuing
00:42:02with the flawed protocols.
00:42:05Exactly.
00:42:05It's not about competition
00:42:06or pride.
00:42:08It's about saving lives.
00:42:11We're using our experience
00:42:13with the trial procedures
00:42:14I did at Vail
00:42:15to develop next generation
00:42:17surgical techniques
00:42:18eliminating all the
00:42:19previous complications
00:42:21and inefficiencies.
00:42:23Even if Vail Hospital
00:42:24analyzes our fundamental
00:42:25approach and attempts
00:42:27to create something new,
00:42:28we'll maintain
00:42:29our significant advantage.
00:42:31And if they stubbornly continue
00:42:33with their flawed protocols,
00:42:35rest assured,
00:42:36their outcomes
00:42:37will deteriorate.
00:42:38I don't wish it upon
00:42:39their patients,
00:42:40that's for sure.
00:42:42Remember this moment.
00:42:43In this battle
00:42:44for medical supremacy,
00:42:46Heart Medical Center
00:42:46will emerge victorious.
00:42:48It's 3 a.m.
00:42:57I lost track
00:42:58of time again.
00:43:05Viv,
00:43:05you surprised me.
00:43:08Looks like you could use
00:43:09a nice rub.
00:43:11Do you mind?
00:43:12No.
00:43:15I mean,
00:43:16yeah.
00:43:17What do you give
00:43:18all your surgeons
00:43:19massages?
00:43:21Only the ones
00:43:21I really, really like.
00:43:28You really, really like me?
00:43:31Adrienne,
00:43:31I've really, really liked you
00:43:32since residency.
00:43:34Nothing's changed.
00:43:37You were our most brilliant
00:43:38resident in the program.
00:43:40I never imagined
00:43:41someone like you
00:43:41would like me.
00:43:42There was never anyone
00:43:43else that got my attention.
00:43:46Only you.
00:43:48But you were
00:43:49completely oblivious.
00:43:51And then you just
00:43:52vanished from the program.
00:43:55Well, I left to join
00:43:56the Experimental Surgical
00:43:57Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:43:59I know.
00:44:02Your talent was
00:44:03extraordinary even then.
00:44:05Back then,
00:44:06I made a promise to myself
00:44:07that we would work
00:44:08together again someday.
00:44:09You know,
00:44:11when I established
00:44:12Heart Medical Center,
00:44:13my first priority
00:44:14was recruiting you.
00:44:16But that
00:44:17manipulative tyrant,
00:44:19Nelson Bale,
00:44:20had already secured
00:44:21your contracts
00:44:22with ridiculous incentives.
00:44:24I understand now.
00:44:26So, should we
00:44:36pick up where
00:44:37we left off
00:44:38in residency?
00:44:40You're the boss.
00:44:41That's right.
00:44:43And as your boss,
00:44:44I say,
00:44:45come home with me.
00:44:47Tonight?
00:44:47You lost everything
00:44:49when Preston fired you.
00:44:51Hospital privileges,
00:44:53research funding,
00:44:55even your hospital
00:44:57subsidized apartment.
00:45:00You have literally
00:45:01nowhere else to go tonight.
00:45:04Come with me.
00:45:07Where?
00:45:09My place.
00:45:10All right.
00:45:19I'll admit it.
00:45:21That was the best meal
00:45:22I've had in months.
00:45:23Careful,
00:45:24Dr. Marksman.
00:45:25I might start thinking
00:45:26you're easy to please.
00:45:28That just depends
00:45:29on the company.
00:45:30Well,
00:45:31starting tonight,
00:45:32this is your new home.
00:45:35Until the program's
00:45:36fully established,
00:45:37it just makes sense.
00:45:39Are you sure about that?
00:45:40We already work
00:45:41late hours.
00:45:43Living together
00:45:44could get complicated.
00:45:47Well,
00:45:47I like complicated.
00:45:49Keeps things interesting.
00:45:52And
00:45:52where exactly
00:45:54will I be sleeping?
00:45:55Well,
00:45:56my master suite
00:46:00has a
00:46:02California king.
00:46:06Plenty of room.
00:46:09If things ever need to get,
00:46:10a little more
00:46:11more collaborative.
00:46:14Really?
00:46:16Relax.
00:46:17I'm only teasing.
00:46:19Tonight,
00:46:20at least.
00:46:22Come on.
00:46:25I'll show you
00:46:26your room.
00:46:29Unless you'd rather
00:46:29have a nightcap.
00:46:31And mine.
00:46:32things could get dangerous.
00:46:44Is this pathetic attempt
00:46:46really the best
00:46:46that you can do?
00:46:51You are completely
00:46:53worthless as surgeons.
00:46:54Dr. Marksman,
00:46:55the experimental procedures
00:46:57we're trying to replicate
00:46:58here are
00:46:58extraordinarily intricate.
00:47:00we need at least
00:47:01six months
00:47:02to properly master.
00:47:04Six months?
00:47:05You have
00:47:0672 hours.
00:47:07And I expect
00:47:07hourly updates
00:47:08on my desk.
00:47:09Sir,
00:47:10brushing these
00:47:11delicate procedures
00:47:12dramatically increases
00:47:14the possibility
00:47:14of potentially fatal
00:47:16complications.
00:47:16three days.
00:47:17Three days.
00:47:17Then you don't get
00:47:18one hour more.
00:47:20Go.
00:47:21Go.
00:47:25Report,
00:47:25Dr. Marksman.
00:47:26What's our status?
00:47:28Excellent progress,
00:47:29Mr. Vale.
00:47:29We will be advancing
00:47:30to phase two
00:47:31implementation
00:47:32within three days.
00:47:34That's exactly
00:47:35what I wanted to hear.
00:47:35I knew my judgment
00:47:37in appointing you
00:47:37was flawless.
00:47:44Preston,
00:47:44I need an update
00:47:45on the experimental
00:47:46surgery program.
00:47:48Everything's proceeding
00:47:49perfectly, Father.
00:47:50Outstanding.
00:47:51When this is done,
00:47:52I'll throw you
00:47:53a huge party
00:47:54to celebrate the launch.
00:47:55Your father must
00:47:56be so proud of you.
00:47:58Keep up the good work,
00:47:58Dr. Marksman.
00:48:00I'll make sure my father
00:48:01understands your
00:48:02invaluable contribution.
00:48:03This is my shot.
00:48:05Why settle
00:48:06for chief of surgery?
00:48:07With the right maneuvering,
00:48:08I could become
00:48:08the next chief medical
00:48:09officer of Vale Hospital.
00:48:11Mr. Vale,
00:48:13my purpose
00:48:14is to execute
00:48:15the visionary
00:48:16medical strategies
00:48:17of brilliant
00:48:18administrators
00:48:19such as yourself.
00:48:21I believe that
00:48:22in the position
00:48:22of chief medical officer,
00:48:24I could implement
00:48:25your ideas
00:48:26more effectively
00:48:26throughout the entire hospital.
00:48:29If these procedures
00:48:29prove successful,
00:48:30I will personally
00:48:31discuss your advancement
00:48:32with the board.
00:48:33Truly, that's...
00:48:34I am profoundly
00:48:37grateful, sir.
00:48:56You're finally awake.
00:48:58You can keep appreciating
00:49:04the view
00:49:05while you eat.
00:49:06All right.
00:49:07Ooh, breakfast.
00:49:08Looks good.
00:49:13When you're
00:49:14finished eating,
00:49:15we'll head directly
00:49:15to the surgical wing.
00:49:16Sound good?
00:49:17Yes.
00:49:19Absolutely.
00:49:20Good.
00:49:22Get it up and running,
00:49:23and there may be
00:49:24a special bonus
00:49:26waiting for you.
00:49:30Extra special.
00:49:39Okay, team.
00:49:40We're approaching
00:49:41a critical phase
00:49:42of our program development.
00:49:44We have
00:49:44groundbreaking procedures
00:49:45that we need to perfect
00:49:46in very little time,
00:49:48so let's get to it.
00:49:50Let's start
00:49:50revolutionizing medicine.
00:49:52I have excellent news
00:49:53for all of you.
00:49:54I've just finalized
00:49:55arrangements with the board,
00:49:57and upon successful
00:49:58implementation
00:49:59of our surgical innovations,
00:50:01each of you
00:50:02will receive
00:50:03a fully funded
00:50:04medical mission trip
00:50:05anywhere in the world
00:50:06that you choose
00:50:06to share your expertise.
00:50:07And when the time comes
00:50:10that our procedures
00:50:11receive national certification,
00:50:14every surgeon
00:50:15on this team
00:50:15will be gifted
00:50:16a percentage
00:50:17of the royalties
00:50:18from any techniques
00:50:19we patent.
00:50:22At Hart Medical Center,
00:50:24our surgeons
00:50:25are the lifeblood
00:50:26of our institution,
00:50:28and you will be
00:50:29compensated accordingly.
00:50:33Dr. Hart,
00:50:34we are fully committed
00:50:35to making this
00:50:36surgical program
00:50:36a success.
00:50:38Absolutely.
00:50:38You'll be seeing progress
00:50:40ASAP.
00:50:41Vail Hospital
00:50:41won't know what hit him.
00:50:43With Adrian leading us,
00:50:44victory is guaranteed.
00:50:45Heart is best!
00:50:47Heart is best!
00:50:48Heart is best!
00:50:49Heart is best!
00:50:50Heart is best!
00:50:52We're running
00:50:53wild hearts on fire
00:50:55Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
00:50:58We're chasing dreams
00:51:00and climbing higher
00:51:02Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
00:51:05Get on the spread
00:51:06You always this disciplined?
00:51:24Or are you just
00:51:26trying to impress me?
00:51:28If I was trying to impress you,
00:51:30you even know.
00:51:31Midnight meetings
00:51:32Long hours
00:51:35This work ethic of yours
00:51:38It's a little dangerous
00:51:41That's what Val used to say
00:51:45about me
00:51:46Then they fired me
00:51:48Then they were fools
00:51:52You've earned more than just
00:51:56respect here, Adrian
00:51:57You know that, right?
00:52:04You trying to motivate me again?
00:52:06I don't try
00:52:07I do
00:52:11Well
00:52:15Don't work too late
00:52:16You're no good to me
00:52:21burnt out
00:52:22The incompetence
00:52:31is, uh
00:52:32is staggering
00:52:34Yeah, you two
00:52:35are in way over your heads
00:52:37Do you really think
00:52:40that this is acceptable?
00:52:42I give you one simple task
00:52:43and you screw it up!
00:52:45How the hell did either of you
00:52:46even finish
00:52:47residency?
00:52:49Vail General Hospital
00:52:50is the gold
00:52:52standard
00:52:52and you two are just
00:52:53standing around like
00:52:54clueless little interns
00:52:55If these surgical models
00:52:57aren't flawless by tomorrow
00:52:58you're both gone
00:52:59Is that clear?
00:53:02Yes, sir
00:53:02This is the man I trusted
00:53:04to lead my surgical team?
00:53:08Go
00:53:09Oh, Mr. Vail
00:53:16What a, what a, what a surprise
00:53:18Cut the bullshit, Marksman
00:53:19Are we on schedule or not?
00:53:22Of course
00:53:23We're, we're just
00:53:25refining the final stages
00:53:27Yeah, everything's under control
00:53:30Good
00:53:31But there's a problem
00:53:32I expect to hear it from you
00:53:33with no cover-ups
00:53:34Of course, sir
00:53:35Mr. Vail
00:53:39Not now
00:53:40Go get me the latest
00:53:41performance reports
00:53:42It, uh
00:53:46Looks like Preston's
00:53:49growing a little cold
00:53:50on our lovely
00:53:50administrator here
00:53:51Don't worry
00:53:53When Preston makes me
00:53:54chief medical officer
00:53:55I'm gonna need someone
00:53:57flexible in my corner
00:53:59I was back at the winning team
00:54:01Dr. Marksman
00:54:02Today Vail Hospital
00:54:10officially launched
00:54:11its highly anticipated
00:54:12next generation
00:54:14surgical program
00:54:15This cutting edge approach
00:54:16to surgical care
00:54:17is being closely watched
00:54:19by the medical industry
00:54:20Especially as
00:54:21Heart Medical's
00:54:22competing program
00:54:23was released
00:54:24on the same day
00:54:25The question now is
00:54:27Who will define
00:54:27the future
00:54:28of surgery?
00:54:30Relax, Mr. Vail
00:54:31Heart Medical
00:54:33doesn't stand a chance
00:54:34I hope you're right
00:54:36For your sake
00:54:39Didn't you say that
00:54:42if the rollout went well
00:54:44that you'd make me
00:54:45chief medical officer?
00:54:47It's not a success
00:54:49yet
00:54:50Enjoy tonight's launch party
00:54:53Because if our results
00:54:55don't outshine
00:54:56Heart Medical
00:54:56it'll be the last thing
00:54:57you have to celebrate
00:54:58for a long time
00:54:59Dr. Hart
00:55:12we have a problem
00:55:13Vail Hospital's
00:55:16new surgical program
00:55:17launches today
00:55:17That soon
00:55:19They're hosting
00:55:20a big celebration
00:55:21party tonight
00:55:22It's a good thing
00:55:25we're ahead of
00:55:26You're saying
00:55:29we're ready?
00:55:30Why would I lie?
00:55:31We've been tracking
00:55:32Vail's every move
00:55:33Let him celebrate
00:55:35It's just gonna backfire
00:55:36How exactly
00:55:38does that work
00:55:38in our favor?
00:55:40Viv, do you remember
00:55:41what I told you
00:55:42when you first
00:55:43brought me here?
00:55:45Preston Vail's
00:55:46rushing this
00:55:47He's desperate
00:55:47to beat us
00:55:48to the market
00:55:48And?
00:55:49Their model's flawed
00:55:51If they keep
00:55:52moving forward
00:55:53without realizing
00:55:53their structural failure
00:55:54in their approach
00:55:55we won't have to
00:55:58lift a damn finger
00:55:58And what about
00:55:59when it falls apart?
00:56:01Benhart Medical
00:56:01takes over
00:56:02as the future
00:56:03of modern surgery
00:56:03So you're saying
00:56:06that Vail Hospital
00:56:07has been refining
00:56:08the prototype
00:56:08surgical method
00:56:09that you designed?
00:56:10It's the only way
00:56:11they could have
00:56:11gotten this far
00:56:12this fast
00:56:13They're using
00:56:14an early draft
00:56:15full of mistakes
00:56:16that I won't
00:56:16make again
00:56:17They don't even
00:56:19realize the cracks
00:56:20in their foundation
00:56:20That actually
00:56:22makes perfect sense
00:56:24Which means
00:56:26we've already won
00:56:27Well this is
00:56:29a big day for us
00:56:29We should celebrate
00:56:31What do you have
00:56:31in mind?
00:56:32Drinks?
00:56:33Not quite
00:56:34You and I
00:56:35are crashing
00:56:36the Vail launch party
00:56:37tonight
00:56:37What?
00:56:39Why?
00:56:40Let me worry
00:56:41about that
00:56:42In the meantime
00:56:43ensure a smooth rollout
00:56:44finish whatever
00:56:45procedures you need to
00:56:46and meet me
00:56:48in the lobby
00:56:48at 8pm sharp

00:58:19It's right
00:58:19The number you have dialed is unavailable. Please try again later.
00:58:49It's twenty in one day.
00:58:53All clean, all stable. Experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman. You did it.
00:59:00No, we didn't.
00:59:04Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vale's launch party. Pronto. You're already late.
00:59:09I need a change there.
00:59:10You don't have time.
00:59:11Where's Vivian?
00:59:13Taking care of something. She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:59:18Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vale Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:59:40What the fuck? You're my date and you're wasted.
00:59:43I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:59:46Yeah, 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.
00:59:53Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge? It's giving orderly sheep.
00:59:54Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:59:55.
00:59:56.
00:59:57.
00:59:59.
01:00:12.
01:00:13Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
01:00:16It's giving orderly sheep.
01:00:21Maybe he's here to bust tables.
01:00:25What are you doing at our launch party?
01:00:26You weren't invited.
01:00:27You so sure about that?
01:00:29I mean, look at you.
01:00:30This is a black tie.
01:00:31I mean, not that I'd expect you to know
01:00:32what that actually is.
01:00:36Look who crawled in from the gutter.
01:00:39The found surgeon, the fraud, the nobody.
01:00:43You show up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
01:00:47I thought I told the security to keep out the criminals
01:00:49and the lowlives.
01:00:51Guess I need to fire them, too.
01:00:52Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
01:00:55Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:00:57What are you trying to say?
01:00:59I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody,
01:01:04isn't me.
01:01:08I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:01:12Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:01:15A genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:01:18You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:01:20Yeah, because it'll happen in prison when you're all arrested
01:01:24for medical malpractice, criminal negligence,
01:01:27and identity theft.
01:01:30What are you talking about?
01:01:32Identity theft?
01:01:33Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:01:36Yours?
01:01:37Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:01:40If you don't got it, just act like you do.
01:01:43Speaking from experience, look around you.
01:01:49This is the elite among the elite.
01:01:51The best of the best in the medical field.
01:01:53Just because you waltz in here and your dirty, cheap scrubs
01:01:56doesn't make you one of us.
01:01:57Good.
01:01:58I'm glad, because you're all beneath me.
01:02:01Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
01:02:04That's enough.
01:02:05Guards, this former employee's threatening us.
01:02:09Kick him out.
01:02:11Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:02:15I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:02:18What are you dumbasses doing?
01:02:20Grab him.
01:02:35Christy.
01:02:36What the hell is this?
01:02:38Dad, relax.
01:02:40I, uh...
01:02:41Relax?
01:02:42This twat came in uninvited.
01:02:44I was just kicking him out.
01:02:45Guards, remove him immediately.
01:02:47President Vale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:02:50You get out of my way.
01:02:51Dad, what are you doing?
01:02:53This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:02:57You are such a fool!
01:03:00Dad, what are you doing?
01:03:03Open your eyes, Preston.
01:03:05Open your eyes, Preston.
01:03:07This man that you tried so hard to kick out...
01:03:09He is...
01:03:10Uh...
01:03:11You are a...
01:03:13Disgraced!
01:03:14Dad!
01:03:15My hospital meant something and...
01:03:18You turned it into a...
01:03:20Into a...
01:03:21To a...
01:03:24Dad!
01:03:29Dad!
01:03:31President Vale.
01:03:32Fuck away from my dad!
01:03:34Are you out of your mind?
01:03:35He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:03:37Oh, yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:03:39I'll die before I trust you two.
01:03:41Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:03:43David!
01:03:44David!
01:03:45It's cold!
01:03:46It's cold!
01:03:51Can't think of what to do next?
01:03:53Blanking?
01:03:54Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:03:55Shut up!
01:03:57Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:03:59This is ridiculous.
01:04:00I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:04:03Why are you just standing there?
01:04:04Do something!
01:04:05What's the matter, David?
01:04:08If you need help, just ask.
01:04:11All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:04:13Right here.
01:04:14Right now.
01:04:16I can't blow my cover, but...
01:04:19What if I kill him?
01:04:20I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:04:22I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:04:24I did medical school on Zoom.
01:04:27David!
01:04:28This is a matter of life and death.
01:04:31Let it go!
01:04:32I...
01:04:34I...
01:04:35I...
01:04:38I can't.
01:04:39I can't do this.
01:04:42Okay, I can't...
01:04:43I can't do this.
01:04:44I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:48That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:51That's my surgical notebook.
01:04:53He stole it from me.
01:05:01Okay, okay.
01:05:03I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:05:06Okay.
01:05:07I got it, I got it.
01:05:08Here, take it, take it, take it.
01:05:09Okay.
01:05:10Alright, hold his head.
01:05:11Good.
01:05:12Tilt it back.

01:05:43Surgical genius.
01:05:44Oh.
01:05:45That's how Val makes history.
01:05:46Somebody get this man a medal.
01:05:47Or at least a new department.
01:05:48If you still want that chief medical officer position, say the word.
01:05:52Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:05:55That maneuver.
01:05:56That notebook.
01:05:57It's mine.
01:05:58Then tell them.
01:05:59Where is he going?
01:06:00Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:06:03Oh.
01:06:04Oh.
01:06:05Oh.
01:06:06Oh.
01:06:07Oh.

01:06:20Oh.
01:06:21Oh.
01:06:22Oh.
01:06:23Oh.
01:06:24Oh.
01:06:25Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs.
01:06:27Say, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:06:31That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:06:38What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:06:40He's delusional.
01:06:43Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:06:44The notebook he used to save your father, that's mine, my handwriting, my theories.
01:06:52my theories just pissed because he did what you couldn't i'm pissed because you used rudimentary
01:06:59theories as innovation and when it fails and it will you're not the ones that'll pay for it
01:07:09the patients will you can't prove that not yet but you can't fake medicine
01:07:17medicine and science always tell the truth
01:07:23our three's vitals just dropped we've got uncontrolled bleeding second patient today
01:07:27same issue vessel ligation failed mid-operation these techniques aren't viable the veil method
01:07:33doesn't hold under stress i mean come on tonight proves it we're ahead of every surgical institute
01:07:39in the country
01:07:44i'll be right back just coordinating with the team
01:07:54talk to me the vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again this is the second patient bleeding out
01:07:59tonight
01:08:03use the compression step that only works in control scenarios we told you these procedures
01:08:08weren't fully tested look just follow the notes
01:08:12i designed those techniques for 101 guidance not mass implementation without calibration
01:08:23it's unstable it's dangerous they tried to commercialize your success without you
01:08:27how people are paying for it all good of course just routine coordination
01:08:36routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss your surgical program is failing and patients
01:08:42are suffering you've been out of the field for months you wouldn't know yeah i would know
01:08:48because the procedures that you're butchering i invented and i'm the only one in this room who can
01:08:53fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing oh oh yes this is dr marksman yeah connect me with
01:09:06the surgical coordinator immediately okay listen very carefully your patient or three is experiencing
01:09:14a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed no you
01:09:21need to perform a marksman modified pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial legation followed by
01:09:27a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures yes yes
01:09:40i don't even know he made a phone call his whole thing is performance charade you stole his methods
01:09:47this entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork uh that's a lie then prove me wrong
01:09:55show them all a technique that i didn't create
01:10:00why would we believe anything he says he was fired humiliated you're right i was fired and the same
01:10:07procedures i pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary yeah you know what this
01:10:13is pathetic he's just jealous he missed his shot is that what you told yourself when you snuck back
01:10:19into my office and stole my surgical journal even if that were true this isn't the time or the place
01:10:26i think it's exactly the time and place
01:10:40i just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator and thanks to adrian's guidance
01:10:46our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients adrian just cleaned up your mess
01:10:53you took this good man's techniques that weren't ready and you fired him the one person who could
01:11:00make them safe dad you don't see the full picture here oh i'm seeing it perfectly well this hospital
01:11:09was built on trust and integrity and you've disgraced them both your father nearly died because of your ego
01:11:18because of his lies you saved me you saved nelson and now you can save vale i tried to warn you all
01:11:30no one listened well they're listening now you deserve to be at vale more than either of those two
01:11:38and probably even more than me it was a mistake to let you go months ago i was fired from vale hospital
01:11:46with procedures still in development they weren't ready they needed supervision precision
01:11:54development instead someone took my notes and tried to fast track them for glory oh you can't prove
01:12:00that security footage
01:12:06of you stealing adrian's notebook from the hospital
01:12:09already submitted to the board i built on what he started okay i i didn't steal i i i enhanced it
01:12:20then why were patients about to die you falsified rollout readiness he did more than that he put lives
01:12:29at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program we're going to need
01:12:34to open a formal investigation on this this is absurd this was supposed to be our night oh it's your night
01:12:43just not the way you thought it'd be you lied to me i didn't lie i simplified the truth
01:12:50simplify you could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people you nearly killed the
01:12:57president of the hospital you passed up experimental procedures as launch ready that's malpractice they
01:13:04worked nelson's alive look the patients they're alive yeah because of me those methods require
01:13:10sequential tensioning breath control special clamp techniques getting one beat wrong is the difference
01:13:16between life and death wait these really are your techniques i tested them for years
01:13:22it was never meant for mass rollout not without training you're rewriting history
01:13:28no you tried to erase him from it adrian marksman was the reason that veil's program had a future
01:13:36and without him it won't this is absurd you're siding with this disgraced former resident he's not
01:13:43disgraced son you are you hijacked a program you didn't understand and then when your ego wasn't enough
01:13:52you propped up this fraud taking his side dad i'm your son i'm taking the side of truth
01:14:03and so will the board we will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning until then both of
01:14:09you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties suspended oh no you can't do that you don't
01:14:15understand the politics of running a hospital we understand the liability that's enough
01:14:22mr press and veil dr david marksman come with us
01:14:28dad you're not gonna let them drag me out like this i'm your son no don't you touch me
01:14:33don't you're not a child hey dad you're not my responsibility
01:14:51adrian please i made a mistake i see that now i should have believed in you i should have stood by you
01:14:57you were right about everything just give me a second chance please i still love you
01:15:11love you traded him the second someone flashier walked by you don't understand i thought he was
01:15:18finished i thought he had nothing left so you sold him out mocked him over and over again
01:15:27i was scared i i didn't know what to do oh you knew you just didn't care
01:15:33not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser please say something
01:15:42anything you had your chance fiona and you spent it holding preston's arm while they tried to bury me
01:15:48you always belonged to my operating room and i should have fought harder to keep you if i'd
01:16:03only known what was going on behind the scenes the board will vote that preston is removed from the
01:16:10board and david will never go near another patient again we're rebuilding and i want you back as vale's
01:16:19chief of experimental surgery i'm sorry dr vale you had your chance too i'm not the same man that you
01:16:30fire well all the more reason we need you back at vale adrian 2.0 i'm not coming back
