00:05Someone help!
00:07Move back everyone! The boy isn't breathing!
00:09Lemmy, I can help.
00:11Blue lamps? It could be an airway blockage.
00:21How did you know what to do?
00:23I save lives for a living.
00:25I'm a doctor.
00:29Hello?
00:30The Virus X Project is entering its critical phase.
00:35We need you.
00:36I need you.
00:37I need to stay here and take care of my husband, Brock.
00:40It's been there for years.
00:42You walked away from the head of research.
00:45A physician everyone was vying for and gave up everything.
00:48My research was the reason Brock got exposed to this virus.
00:51I need to care for him.
00:53Especially when his symptoms can appear any day.
00:55I understand.
00:56But think about it.
00:58Think about what you deserve.
01:04Brock!
01:05What the hell is going on?
01:07You can see for yourself.
01:09We haven't slept together in three years, Della.
01:11What do you expect me to do?
01:14Celinda actually knows how to make a man feel wanted.
01:16She's a lot more fun than you.
01:18Celinda, you were my best friend.
01:21I didn't expect you to do something like this behind my back.
01:24Della, Brock's an amazing man.
01:26If you don't want him, why shouldn't I?
01:32Della!
01:32Don't forget, the hospital you work at belongs to my family.
01:36Don't bother.
01:37I'll resign tomorrow and I'll leave this house too.
01:40Let's get divorced.
01:43And one more thing, Celinda.
01:45Brock is infected with virus X.
01:48That's why I avoided sleeping with him.
01:54Three years back, I came to this hospital for Brock.
01:58His father runs this place.
02:00He's the director, head of surgery.
02:03I gave up everything for them.
02:06This is the end.
02:07It's time to leave.
02:08Della, are you sure you want to give up this job?
02:11Seriously, where would you even go?
02:12No one's gonna hire you anyways.
02:14You're so right, Brock.
02:16She's so replaceable.
02:18At work and at home.
02:21And she'll hear a little achievement while you still can.
02:24Sorry, not sorry, but I don't think I'll be the one out of a job.
02:27I have enough evidence to bury you and this hospital.
02:32Including CCTV footage of the two of you using my office as a bedroom.
02:37Oh, one more thing.
02:38My dearest husband, virus X is why I didn't sleep with you.
02:42But that's not the only reason.
02:44I always knew I deserved someone better.
02:48That's just another excuse for your sad little life.
02:51You're a resident, Della.
02:52Don't pretend you know more than me.
02:53Virus X doesn't even exist.
02:55Security!
02:57She is stealing confidential hospital data.
02:59Get her out of here!
03:00Ma'am, we need you to step.
03:08Brock!
03:11Brock, what's happening?
03:12Virus X.
03:16Stop making things up.
03:18Stress and low oxygen will make it worse.
03:21Stop this nonsense!
03:23Security!
03:23Throw her out!
03:24Virus X is primarily transmitted through sexual contact.
03:28You slept with him.
03:29Repeatedly.
03:34Full body convulsions, chest pain, jugular veins distented, all virus X symptoms.
03:40Don't touch me!
03:41I know your filthy game.
03:44You're trying to scare her away from me.
03:46I'm actually trying to save your life.
03:48Yeah, right.
03:51Like you could save me.
03:54We're over.
03:55Get the hell out!
03:57Brock, listen to me.
03:59I'm really trying to help you here.
04:01What's going on here?
04:06Della!
04:06Della!
04:07Get your hands off my son!
04:08Dr. John, he's showing classic virus X symptoms.
04:11He needs to be isolated immediately.
04:14Dad.
04:16Don't listen to her.
04:18We're separated.
04:20She's just making things up.
04:24Someone bring the stretcher!
04:31Since when do junior physicians lecture me about imaginary virus?
04:34I still don't know what my son ever saw in you.
04:37Dr. John, she's fired today.
04:39This virus X story is just her last stunt before her ass is out the door.
04:42You'd really sink that low?
04:44Inventing a virus to save your job?
04:46Dr. John.
04:47Enough!
04:47Enough!
04:48I won't hear another word from you.
04:50Get her out!
04:51Now!
04:53Contact Dr. Williams.
04:54Bring him to Fae-G.
04:56Immediately!
05:08You wouldn't come to me.
05:11But here I am coming to you.
05:20Advanced Strain.
05:21Advanced Strain.
05:22Virus X.
05:22That's what we're dealing with.
05:24He's going to be okay.
05:26Right?
05:27You're the best, Harvey.
05:28You've gotta fix him.
05:30I slowed the progression.
05:31The fever will break for a few hours and he will be up and about.
05:35But there's no cure for this type of strain.
05:38Not yet.
05:40Name your price.
05:42Whatever it takes.
05:44Just save my son.
05:45Money won't save him.
05:47But one person might.
05:48Our lead researcher since the start.
05:51Diane.
05:52Then find her.
05:53Use everything I have.
05:56I don't care where she is.
05:58I don't care what she wants.
06:00Bring her to me.
06:02Now.
06:05Where are you?
06:06I'm in Fiji.
06:07The hospital you're working at.
06:09A patient needs you.
06:10You mean, Brock.
06:11They threw me out, Harvey.
06:13You really think they'll let me anywhere near him?
06:16They will.
06:17Once they know who you really are.
06:19Diane.
06:24I'm giving my keynote speech day after tomorrow at the Fiji Marriott.
06:27Please.
06:28Meet me there.
06:29Not as Della.
06:30But as Diane.
06:31Yeah.
06:49Invitation, please.
06:50I'm here to meet Dr. Williams.
06:52Everyone's here to see Dr. Williams.
06:54No invitation.
06:55No entry.
06:56Please step aside.
06:57Della?
07:00Unbelievable.
07:01You actually came back.
07:03Do you have any idea how embarrassing this is?
07:06This is an elite medical summit, not a soup kitchen.
07:10Don't make a scene.
07:11Just leave quietly.
07:12I know it'll be hard now that you're fired.
07:16Hey, kid.
07:17That's what you came for, right?
07:21What are you waiting for?
07:23She doesn't belong here.
07:24Get her out.
07:25I wouldn't do that if I were you.
07:28Is this a golden card?
07:33That's gotta be fake.
07:35There is no way she has VIP access.
07:39The invitation is valid, ma'am.
07:41My apologies for the delay.
07:43Please, this way.
07:46How the hell did you manage this?
07:48You stole this?
07:50Huh?
07:50Or did you sleep your way in with some old fart?
07:53Watch your mouth, Celinda, and get out of my way.
07:55Don't think you've won, Della.
07:57When Dr. Williams arrives, I'll have you blacklist from every hospital in the Pacific for this fraud.
08:03You want to expose me?
08:04Then you should brace yourself.
08:07Dr. Williams gave this invitation to me personally.
08:24Stop.
08:26She is a thief.
08:27She stole a VIP access to get in here.
08:30This woman was fired this morning for incompetence, and now she's stalking Dr. Williams.
08:35I'm Celinda.
08:35Who let her in?
08:36This is a medical summit, not a service.
08:40Dr. Williams, I'm Celinda.
08:43Brock.
08:43Her ex-husband, unfortunately.
08:45I know her better than anyone.
08:59I believe there's been a huge misunderstanding.
09:02She is the reason I am in Fiji.
09:14Dr. Harvey Williams!
09:15That's...
09:16You must be mistaken.
09:17Or played by this slimy bitch.
09:20She flirted with security to get in.
09:22That's all this is.
09:23Your confidence is impressive, given how little you actually know.
09:27The woman you just insulted understands medicine better than you ever will in your entire career.
09:33Without her, we may not be breathing longer.
09:36Virus X has already begun spreading.
09:42What a story!
09:43Almost convincing.
09:45But we're not idiots.
09:46And you're not Dr. Harvey Williams.
09:48Come on, can't you all see?
09:50He's a lying cheat just like her.
09:52He's as fake as her entire medical career.
09:56Did you see that?
09:57It is absolutely horrific.
10:01Dad!
10:03Perfect timing!
10:04Tell this impersonator and his little tramp to leave before.
10:13You have no idea what you're saying.
10:17That man decides whether you survive.
10:20Dr. Williams, please, my deepest apologies.
10:23He does not speak for the Spencer family or this institution.
10:27So he's the real deal.
10:29Fine!
10:30How did she get the world famous doctor to lie for her?
10:34We all know the answer.
10:36She slept her way in.
10:37Not only for this, but for everything.
10:40She's a slut, a fraud, and a-
10:42ENOUGH!
10:44I've listened to this long enough.
10:47You call her a clueless resident.
10:49You call her a fraud.
10:52The woman behind me didn't seduce her way in here.
10:55She is the reason you are all standing here.
10:58You've been searching for the lead researcher who first studied Virus X.
11:02The only person capable of finding a cure.
11:05Allow me to introduce her.
11:07She is not whoever this Della woman these people are talking about.
11:10She is Dr. Diane Reyes, the world's foremost virologist.
11:19Come on, Harvey.
11:20You really expect us to believe the world's most sought-after virologist was hiding out as a junior physician in
11:26my hospital?
11:27The legendary Dr. Diane Reyes?
11:29Her?
11:30I knew you were desperate.
11:31But getting a world-class doctor to lie for you?
11:34What did you have to do?
11:35Oh my!
11:36I think very carefully before you say another word.
11:39You listen carefully, Harvey.
11:41I hired you to save my son.
11:42Fine!
11:43She's mysterious.
11:44Everyone knows that.
11:46But don't insult me by claiming this two-bit tramp is her.
11:50You have no idea who you were talking to, John.
11:54You're gambling with your son's life for the sake of your ego.
11:58No.
11:59You're gambling with his life!
12:00If she's so much as lays a hand on my son, I'll have her charged with murder.
12:07See?
12:08I told you they don't want my help.
12:10We are wasting our time here.
12:12Look at her.
12:14Still pretending she's Diane.
12:16You've played everyone, Della.
12:18My son.
12:19The board.
12:20The hospital.
12:21Looks like even Dr. Williams.
12:24If you really are the legendary Diane, if you really are the only one who can treat Virus
12:29X, stop hiding behind Harvey.
12:33Prove it.
12:33Or you leave this room in handcuffs.
12:44We don't have all day.
12:45You haven't found Virus X because you've been looking in the wrong place.
12:49Virus X doesn't announce itself.
12:51It hides by mimicking our body's own proteins.
12:54That's absurd.
12:55We've run full temps multiple times.
12:57If there were a virus, it would have showed up.
12:59What you're describing sounds like science fiction.
13:01I've studied it longer than anyone here.
13:04I know how it behaves.
13:06It attacks in brutal sequences.
13:08Stage one.
13:09Severe nausea.
13:09Vomiting blood.
13:10You've already seen that.
13:12Stage two.
13:13In 48 hours, the patient will have difficulty breathing.
13:17Stage three.
13:19Total collapse.
13:20Internal bleeding.
13:21Then seizures.
13:22Because the brain is being starved of oxygen.
13:24Wait a second, girl.
13:25Brock has a cough.
13:27He's coughing up blood because he drinks and smokes like a chimney.
13:31Your son's going to be fine.
13:34Why are we even entertaining this?
13:35Enough of this.
13:37I've heard enough bad science fiction for one day.
13:40So you don't believe me, right?
13:45Five.
13:46Four.
13:47Three.
13:48What are you doing?
13:49Two.
13:50One.
13:57This is stage two.
13:59You have exactly two days before the brain damage becomes permanent.
14:05Do you still want me to leave?
14:18my son's tests were clean no virus no record of anything and now you've turned this hall into a
14:27circus sorry to break it to you john but diane's right this virus mimics our body's own proteins
14:33standard tests won't detect it until the host is already crashing i don't care about your your
14:38theories they're not proven i care about the consequences you two are making a very public
14:47statement so here's what's going to happen you cure this virus x or whatever you want to call it
14:54right now else i will personally ensure you both are behind bars but understand what you're really
15:02risking here this isn't just about your son anymore what are you talking about if brock dies it becomes
15:07global proof that virus x is real and if we fail to find a cure the world is entering a
15:13pandemic
15:21the antibodies aren't holding we have to go straight to the bone marrow that's reckless
15:26if we wait the brain damage becomes permanent it's too aggressive diane even for you you're
15:31trying to burn the virus out you'll burn the patient with it we stabilize first then we move we don't
15:37have that kind of time i've lived with this strain in my head for three years you've not changed one
15:44bit
15:44diana still impossible to argue with i just never understood why you walked away from the project and
15:51from me i've left because i was suffocating between the virus the pressure and rachel every idea i brought
15:59in she took credit every breakthrough she claimed it was luck and you let her i thought you were stronger
16:06than her petty games i didn't realize because you were too busy being the legendary dr harvey williams
16:12i chose brock because he saw me not my lab results my research papers turns out that was a lie
16:20too diane
16:23i never saw you as disposable diane i saw you as the only person who understood the world the way
16:29i did

16:52please tell me rachel didn't somehow cause this
16:54what how would rachel even be anywhere near this place relax i'm joking
17:13uh dr williams we've had a false trigger on the pressure valve quarantine lifted
17:18hey relax it's just a buffered saline sample

24:34that's the point of this place
24:44Harvey, what was that?
24:47The grid must have tripped.
24:50Don't move. Emergency power should kick in.
24:59Something's on me! Harvey, it's on my foot!
25:02Get him off! Harvey!
25:11I've got you. Easy. I'm not letting you fall. Just breathe.
25:23Behold, the terrifying creature that scared a world-class virologist shitless.
25:30God. God, I'm pathetic.
25:33Even legends get to be human sometimes, Diane.
25:36But you've always been a little dramatic about the small stuff.
25:42You okay now? Your heart is still racing.
25:46It's not because of the mouse anymore.
26:03Harvey, look. Look at the protein fault.
26:08It's holding. The baseline's stable.
26:11That means...
26:12You're still asking?
26:13You know what this means.
26:15It's not a prototype.
26:16It's the cure.
26:19We did it.
26:21After everything.
26:22We actually did it.
26:24Virus X has a cure.
26:32My phone?
26:34My phone?
26:38Della, wait.
26:40Della, wait.
26:41I can explain why.
26:47You told me I dropped it.
26:50But it was in your pocket the whole time?
26:53Della, I just...
26:56I kept thinking the hospital might be calling.
26:58About Brock.
26:59But you let me sit with that?
27:01Why?
27:02I did it for your own good.
27:05I needed you focused.
27:07My own good?
27:09Since when do you get to decide what's good for me?
27:12I'm your equal, Harvey.
27:14Not your student.
27:16Not some project you manage.
27:18And certainly not your property.
27:26Everything outside this lab is chaotic.
27:30I was trying to keep it out of this room.
27:32How do I work with someone who can't even look me in the eye and tell me the truth?
27:36Who are you?
27:41Not answering is worse than lying, Harvey.
27:46Because it means there's more.
27:48Tell me, right now, what else are you hiding from me?
27:56I saw it, Della.
27:58The headlines.
27:59The photos of us going into the hotel.
28:01They were tearing you apart.
28:03What?
28:05Why would anyone...
28:06Rachel.
28:07She is behind this all.
28:10Rachel?
28:10Is she here?
28:13So that's it.
28:14And your solution was to lie to me.
28:16I panicked.
28:17I watched the world close in on you again.
28:20I knew if you saw those comments.
28:22Fraud.
28:23Parasite.
28:23Liar.
28:24You'd walk away.
28:26From the cure.
28:28From the hospital.
28:30From me.
28:34I was terrified of losing you again.
28:37I spent three years hating myself for not asking you to stay.
28:41Because I love you.
28:42I've always loved you.
28:51My mother's ring?
29:04My mother's ring?
29:07I had a chance of saving you again.
29:08You saved me.
29:12But...
29:13Why didn't you tell me?
29:15I know.
29:16I'm sorry.
29:19I was just trying to...
29:21Trying to...
29:22What?
29:23I don't know. I wanted to marry you, but you chose Brock, so I didn't intervene.
29:31I sacrificed everything to keep up with him, and in the end, all that I got was betrayal.
29:37Don't let him get to you. He's not even good enough for you.
29:41Maybe I'm not good enough for him. Maybe I shouldn't have expected to find someone way out of my league.
29:47What do you even mean? You are special, Diana. There is no one else like you.
29:52Really? Do you think so?
29:54I know so. You are one of the...
30:20I didn't want to believe it either, John. But while your son was fighting for his life,
30:26Harvey and Della were busy warming a hotel bed.
30:30I knew it. The second she walked in, I knew she's a fraud.
30:34The whole VirusX project is a scam. A way for them to siphon research funds.
30:39They've already written your son off. Left him to die while they planned their escape from BG.
30:44They are the best in the world. They promised me a cure.
30:48They promised you a fantasy, Mr. John.
30:52Just long enough to keep you signing checks.
30:54Now, they've disappeared because there is no cure.
31:00I won't let them turn my son's life into a joke.
31:02Then stop them before they leave the island.
31:06Find out where they are. I don't want this dragged out. I want them dead.
31:17This structure is locked. It's stable.
31:20But this can't go on shelves yet.
31:22It has to go to VirusX HQ and Suva first.
31:25Without WHO validation, this is not a cure yet.
31:29It's a trophy. And a target.
31:32Then let's go. Now.
31:39Ten miles to Suva. We might beat the morning briefing.
31:42Don't celebrate yet. We're still in the dark.
31:54We've got company.
31:59Who is it?
32:25Roadblock!
32:27Down! Out now!
32:30Into the trees!
32:39You are not going anywhere.
32:46You really thought you could escape me?
32:57Are you insane, Brock?
33:00Why are you hunting us?
33:02You don't get to run.
33:03Remember you had a deal with my father.
33:05You promised a cure to your made-up VirusX.
33:07We ran to save you.
33:09VirusX isn't made up.
33:11And yes, we do have a cure.
33:13We were taking this to international headquarters.
33:16To authorize mass production.
33:18And for you.
33:19For everyone after you.
33:21Don't listen to her, Brock.
33:22That's not a cure.
33:23It's a sedative.
33:25They'll knock you out, drain your dad's money, and disappear for good.
33:28I would listen to Della if I were you.
33:31Your lungs are failing.
33:32You don't have time.
33:33I don't want to die!
33:35I don't!
33:35Then shoot them.
33:36We'll find you a real doctor.
33:38There is no one else.
33:39I made this.
33:40I'm the only one who knows the dose.
33:44Look at yourself.
33:46The tremors.
33:47The blue in your fingertips.
33:54Then do it right now!
33:56Brock, don't...
33:58Shut up!
34:00If this kills me, you shoot them.
34:04This will feel cold.
34:11Brock?
34:13Brock?
34:15Brock?
34:16Brock?
34:22There's no pulse.
34:25You killed him!
34:35Like Brock said, I'll end you both.
34:49Stop!
34:52He's breathing.
34:54Harvey, he's breathing.
34:59He's having a severe reaction.
35:01But the viral load is crashing.
35:03The cure's working.
35:04But he needs medical-induced sedation and ICU monitoring.
35:08But before that...
35:10Get that Rachel bitch.
35:24You did the impossible, Della.
35:27I mean...
35:28Dr. Diane Reyes.
35:30I was wrong.
35:31I let fear turn me into someone I don't recognize.
35:35I'll give you anything.
35:37I promise.
35:38Please, don't leave me.
35:42I didn't do this for anything you might give me.
35:45I did it because it was right.
35:48It's time for me to go.
35:50I wish you well.
35:57Dr. Diane Reyes.
35:58You just stopped a global pandemic.
36:00How does it feel?
36:02Like I'm finally free.
36:07You ready?
36:08I'm scared, Della.
36:18Anything is possible.
36:20As long as we're together.
36:22I'm sorry.
36:24I'm sorry.
36:25I'm sorry.
36:25I'm sorry.
36:27I'm sorry.
36:29I'm sorry.
36:30I'm sorry.
36:31I'm sorry.
36:31I'm sorry.
36:31I'm sorry.
36:31I'm sorry.
36:32I'm sorry.
36:33I'm sorry.
36:33I'm sorry.
36:33I'm sorry.
