Short filmTranscript
00:00:01A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency
00:00:09department.
00:00:10The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Vail's surgical team, their last hope for survival
00:00:17in the face of devastating trauma.
00:00:19Facials crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:22All the hours are full. We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:00:26Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:00:28Well, I can't leave this one. Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:00:30We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the EOR.
00:00:50Need a hand?
00:00:52A new hire. You just started this month.
00:00:55Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level 1 trauma like this?
00:00:59Patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:01Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:10Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
00:01:13Whipple? For trauma?
00:01:15That's insane.
00:01:17Trust me.
00:01:18Metz and bomb scissors.
00:01:21Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:25That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:01:29Bobby Cotterie.
00:01:33Watch.
00:01:39He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:01:42The bleeding. It's under control.
00:01:44But how did he...
00:01:47Silk suture.
00:01:54Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:02:01I've never seen anything like this.
00:02:04Almost done.
00:02:13This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:24Jesus, Adrian.
00:02:25What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:02:28I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:02:31That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:02:34Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:02:36What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:02:38Wait. I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:02:43who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:02:47Is that you?
00:02:54Final suture.
00:02:56Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:03Doctor.
00:03:05The nurses.
00:03:07The nurses.
00:03:07They said you did it.
00:03:09And you...
00:03:10You actually did.
00:03:14Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:03:17Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable.
00:03:20That she only had weeks to live, but...
00:03:23You...
00:03:24You saved my Catherine.
00:03:26She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:03:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:03:30We need you at Vail.
00:03:31My hospital.
00:03:35Look, I'll explain later.
00:03:36Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:03:40It's going to take hours.
00:03:42Y'all should go home.
00:03:43Get some rest.
00:03:44I'll take over from here.
00:03:46Okay.
00:03:48Good work, everyone.
00:03:56Good work, everyone.
00:04:20They're all stable.
00:04:22Every single one of them.
00:04:24Stabilized.
00:04:29Oh, the sun's coming up.
00:04:32You must have operated all night.
00:04:34You're a machine.
00:04:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:04:38All right.
00:04:39It's time for some much-needed Shaddai.
00:04:57Hey, you.
00:05:01Hey, yourself.
00:05:03I've been operating all night.
00:05:06I saved every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:08What you did was extraordinary.
00:05:11How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:16Because I know you.
00:05:18Better than anyone.
00:05:25Blueberry.
00:05:26Your favorite.
00:05:27You remembered.
00:05:29Where's your dad?
00:05:31You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:36I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:48It's the third time this week.
00:05:50Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:53Hmm.
00:05:54So who's the smart skin guy?
00:05:56His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:58Sure.
00:05:59I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:00I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:04With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:06:14What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:17Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:23Who is this guy?
00:06:26Preston Bale, President Bale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:06:29He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:32who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:37I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:43Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:45Sir, about that...
00:06:47Save it!
00:06:49Parker.
00:06:49Parker, you couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:54You're fired.
00:06:55Clear out your office.
00:06:57New management means new standards.
00:07:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:07:04Attention.
00:07:06And everybody's attention now.
00:07:08If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs,
00:07:12every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:14No complications.
00:07:16No deaths.
00:07:16This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:21Who does he think he is?
00:07:23Dr. House?
00:07:25What is this?
00:07:27Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:30Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:33This is a hospital.
00:07:36We need surgeons.
00:07:38Not trophy collectors.
00:07:40That was from my residency direction.
00:07:42Oh, cry me a river.
00:07:44Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients
00:07:47and a little less time collecting gold stars,
00:07:49you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:51You're fired.
00:07:52Excuse me?
00:07:53Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop
00:07:55just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:58Yes, sir.
00:07:59Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:03That was good.
00:08:04Let's go.
00:08:09Well, well, well.
00:08:11What do we have here?
00:08:13Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:16Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:22Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:24No, you didn't.
00:08:26But here's one anyway.
00:08:27You are fired.
00:08:32Are you serious?
00:08:33You're firing me?
00:08:35Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:08:38Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:41Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:43He's...
00:08:46a new surgical resident.
00:08:47Mr. Vail.
00:08:49What's he make?
00:08:50$700,000.
00:08:52That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:54$700?
00:08:55Are you insane?
00:08:57You're giving resident money to a first-year
00:08:59who sleeps on the job?
00:09:00This hospital is being scammed.
00:09:03I just worked all night.
00:09:04Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
00:09:06Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:09:09Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:09:12What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:09:15Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons
00:09:17or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:09:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together,
00:09:22but I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:25My career comes first.
00:09:27Boy, bye.
00:09:29There must be some clerical error.
00:09:31His credentials.
00:09:33Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:36Fiona.
00:09:38Dr. Marksman.
00:09:41You are F-I-R-E-D.
00:09:45Fire.
00:09:46Clear out your office.
00:09:48Clear out your locker.
00:09:49Get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:52This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:54You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:55You don't get to wear that.
00:09:58Or...
00:10:03I see.
00:10:06Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:09You don't understand.
00:10:10He's the one who...
00:10:11Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:13Beat it.
00:10:14Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:10:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:36I understand.
00:10:38Hospital politics.
00:10:40Look, I know it's only been a month,
00:10:42but there is something real between us.
00:10:45Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:47I'll be waiting.
00:10:56You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:04The board won't like this.
00:11:05Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:11:08Patient care will suffer.
00:11:09Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:12I intend to wield it.
00:11:14Or perhaps you're more concerned
00:11:15with one surgeon in particular.
00:11:17Your little scam artist situation-ship.
00:11:21No, Preston.
00:11:22He means nothing to me.
00:11:23Really.
00:11:24I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:11:26Let's be clear about your future here.
00:11:28Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks or the man who signs everyone's paychecks,
00:11:37including yours?
00:11:39The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:42The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:44Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
00:11:56Hey, Dad.
00:11:57What's wrong?
00:11:58Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:12:01She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
00:12:05And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:08Of course.
00:12:08What is it?
00:12:09That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
00:12:12Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:15Dr. Marksman?
00:12:17Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:20Get out of my hospital.
00:12:21Oh, Christ.
00:12:22The resident I just fired?
00:12:25Preston?
00:12:26Are you there?
00:12:28Check the staff roster.
00:12:30Um, see if we have another marksman working for us here.
00:12:34I had to back up the Briggs truck to get him here.
00:12:38He's the surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:40And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
00:12:44The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
00:12:53Ah, yes, I see now.
00:12:55There's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:58Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:13:02Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
00:13:06Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
00:13:08Is this who you mean, Dad?
00:13:09That's our man.
00:13:10There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
00:13:15Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:13:17Do me a favor.
00:13:18Fire him.
00:13:20Already done, Dad.
00:13:21I fired his slacker ass this morning.
00:13:24Thank God.
00:13:25Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
00:13:28Good work, son.
00:13:30I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:13:33Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
00:13:35I got everything else under control.
00:13:44See?
00:13:45Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
00:13:49Now, about your career trajectory.
00:13:52Mr. Vale, sir.
00:13:53Can't you see I'm busy?
00:13:55Multiple traumas incoming.
00:13:57The six-car pileup.
00:13:58You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:59What's your point?
00:14:00ER is crashing.
00:14:02We've no one left who can handle it.
00:14:09Give me the situation.
00:14:11Now.
00:14:12Six critical traumas.
00:14:14Three more incoming.
00:14:15Multiple crush injuries.
00:14:17Arterial bleed, sir.
00:14:18We're losing patients.
00:14:20What are our options?
00:14:21There might be one solution.
00:14:23Well, spit it out.
00:14:25Dr. Marksman.
00:14:26He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:14:29If we can get him back here.
00:14:30Marksman.
00:14:31Right.
00:14:32That's the man we need.
00:14:32Fiona, call him.
00:14:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
00:14:36The genius surgeon.
00:14:37The one I didn't fire.
00:14:38Keep up.
00:14:43What the hell?
00:14:45Where'd all this stuff go?
00:15:01Idiot left us research notes.
00:15:05Mmm.
00:15:06Modified trauma protocol.
00:15:08Wait.
00:15:10These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:15:15Oh, this is brilliant work.
00:15:20Hello?
00:15:21Dr. Marksman?
00:15:22Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
00:15:25Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis,
00:15:27there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:15:30I'm on my way.
00:15:34With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:15:38They'll make me department head.
00:15:40And I can finally make seven figures.
00:15:48Well?
00:15:49Dr. Marksman's on his way.
00:15:51Thank God.
00:16:01Now, about your loyalty.
00:16:05Adrian meant nothing.
00:16:06I was using him to advance my career and my future.
00:16:11That's my girl.
00:16:20Beyond a shift in it an hour ago,
00:16:23the boss's son is up to something.
00:16:26To hell with this.
00:16:27I'm going out.
00:16:28I'm going out.
00:16:32I'm going out.
00:16:43Piece of shit!
00:16:47Get your hand off my girl!
00:16:51Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!
00:16:53You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon
00:16:55can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:16:58You mean to tell me that you've been messing around
00:17:00with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:17:02I can choose who I want.
00:17:04And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:17:06You pathetic loser.
00:17:21I'll do it, sir.
00:17:23We're done, Adrian.
00:17:26Ancient history.
00:17:27Are you serious?
00:17:30Just like that.
00:17:31Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:17:37Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:17:38Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:17:40I need someone with a future,
00:17:42not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:17:49Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:17:52It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:17:56Oh.
00:17:59Look at us, Adrian.
00:18:01I'm the future of Vail Hospital, and you?
00:18:06You're just a slacker and scrubs.
00:18:09You're washed up, marksman.
00:18:12Perhaps try nursing?
00:18:13I hear they're always hiring.
00:18:16Fiona, I met you here, and it made me want to stay.
00:18:19I thought we could build a family together.
00:18:23Get over yourself.
00:18:24You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:18:27President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:18:35We're done.
00:18:37I'm not done.
00:18:38But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:18:44You can count on that.
00:18:48No, no, no, no.
00:18:49Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:18:51Your troubles are just getting started.
00:18:57He'll authorize you to be here.
00:18:59Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients
00:19:04from the multi-car accident, and the situation is completely under control.
00:19:08You're Dr. Marksman.
00:19:10Ah, yes.
00:19:11The very same.
00:19:11My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:19:15Harvard Medical, was it?
00:19:18These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:19:23As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:19:28Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:33He was sleeping while a patient almost died on the table.
00:19:38Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:19:47Dr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.
00:19:49Incredible news.
00:19:51Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:19:55he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:19:59When?
00:20:00Less than an hour ago.
00:20:01Dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:20:05Huh.
00:20:06Amazing.
00:20:07I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:20:15With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:20:20Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:20:24Well, I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:20:26Full department autonomy.
00:20:28Me, research funding, state-of-the-art facilities, and if necessary, my personal involvement.
00:20:38His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:20:42Have my car brought round.
00:20:44I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:20:47And Adrian Marksman, he's leaving with me.
00:20:56Oh, feasants.
00:20:57What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:21:00Oh, don't insult our intelligence.
00:21:02A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:21:04The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:21:06Yet you stand there denying it.
00:21:08This is crazy.
00:21:09You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.
00:21:12And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership, you blame me.
00:21:21The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:21:27If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be, you would still have a job.
00:21:32I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:21:36Security, please detain him.
00:21:43What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:21:46Either confess to medical malfeasance or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:21:53Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:21:57What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:22:00You better confess now or we'll do everything in your power to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:22:06Fine.
00:22:07Go ahead.
00:22:08Do your worst.
00:22:10Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.
00:22:15You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:22:20Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:22:24Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:22:28After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:22:31Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:22:34Not after what he did to our patients.
00:22:37I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:22:40As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital and every medical institute in the country.
00:22:47Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:22:49Do you know what that means?
00:22:51It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.
00:22:57I have one question before I go.
00:23:00Does your father know you fired me?
00:23:03My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.
00:23:08You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?
00:23:13Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:23:15Immediately.
00:23:17Yes, doctor.
00:23:18Right away, sir.
00:23:21That's quite enough.
00:23:34Let him go.
00:23:37Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as chief of surgical innovation at Heart Medical Center.
00:23:46I know you.
00:23:48You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.
00:23:52That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.
00:23:57Vivian, I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium like four or five years ago.
00:24:02What are you doing here?
00:24:03Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.
00:24:08Wait.
00:24:09Are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?
00:24:13He was sleeping during rounds.
00:24:15Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?
00:24:19Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.
00:24:27Dr. Hart, with all due respect...
00:24:30This is a conversation between medical directors.
00:24:32Someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:24:36Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.
00:24:41He compromised patient safety, and...
00:24:44I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, Dr...
00:24:47Marksman.
00:24:48David Marksman.
00:24:49I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.
00:24:54After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.
00:24:59His negligence led to the problem.
00:25:02His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:25:07Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:25:12Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:25:17Of course I consulted my father.
00:25:20He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.
00:25:26Dangerous shortcuts?
00:25:28Is that what President Vail really said?
00:25:31His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.
00:25:34President Vail was the one that recruited me. This makes absolutely no sense.
00:25:38Please, Adrian. The President wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:25:43Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.
00:25:49Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute to any of you.
00:25:54Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our Chief of Surgery?
00:26:01Well, I've...
00:26:02Full department autonomy, protected research time, a surgical fellowship in your name, and a seven-figure salary package.
00:26:11room for sure.
00:26:11and

00:29:51as the responsible party i demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals
00:29:57and with an explanation to every affected vale hospital patient
00:30:03refuse me and i will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently
00:30:08that accusation isn't just baseness

00:30:15you got no choice but to sign this confession
00:30:17oh stop threatening my chief surgeon
00:30:19if you insist on pursuing this vendetta

00:33:51believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy
00:33:54because
00:33:56i
00:33:57masterfully led vivian hart
00:33:59to a false sense of reality
00:34:00there's no way a mediocre doctor
00:34:02can revolutionize surgical procedures
00:34:04i convinced vivian
00:34:06that she's acquired surgical brilliance
00:34:08but in reality
00:34:09she's hired our disgrace discarded loser
00:34:12so you deliberately manipulated vivian
00:34:15she thinks
00:34:16she's hired the genius
00:34:18behind veil hospital's
00:34:19groundbreaking procedures
00:34:20that's why she had the audacity to declare war on you
00:34:23impressive son

00:35:06i would never take a risk like this if preston was our only asset
00:35:11remember
00:35:12we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon
00:35:16you mean the surgeon that saved my life
00:35:19dr adrian marksman

00:35:26and let him
00:35:28exercise his extraordinary talents
00:35:31as long as adrian is with veil hospital
00:35:34heart medical center has no chance of competing
00:35:38not only that
00:35:39vivian fell for preston's manipulation
00:35:42and hired that medical disaster
00:35:45dr david marksman
00:35:47what we have to do now
00:35:49is sit back

00:37:37the budget for innovation

00:37:40has already handed control
00:37:42to his son
00:37:43if i oversee these procedures
00:37:45i could divert significant resources
00:37:47to my personal research
00:37:49mr vale
00:37:50you can trust me completely
00:37:52i am precisely
00:37:53the right man for the job

00:37:59on our hands
00:37:59two attending surgeons
00:38:00just submitted their resignation
00:38:01simultaneously
00:38:02the department can't
00:38:03possibly maintain its caseload
00:38:04what
00:38:05they both resigned at once
00:38:07what was their explanation
00:38:07they refused to disclose their reasons
00:38:09but there's talk they were
00:38:10recruited by a former vale physician
00:38:12along with the three other
00:38:13surgeons you fired before
00:38:14former physician adrian marksman
00:38:17this has his saboteur signature
00:38:19all over it
00:38:19president
00:38:20what's our contingency plan
00:38:21the surgical department
00:38:23is severely understaffed
00:38:24if any more surgeons leave
00:38:25patients will suffer
00:38:27hey everybody
00:38:28needs to remain calm
00:38:31you still have me

00:38:36with your stellar reputation
00:38:38we should be able to get
00:38:39the best of the best
00:38:40exactly
00:38:41so we lost some second-rate talent
00:38:43let him go
00:38:46i'll make some calls to cedar-sinai
00:38:48and ucla
00:38:51good work marksman
00:38:56this is working out perfectly
00:38:57now i can install my own allies
00:38:59in key positions
00:39:00soon
00:39:01i'll control the entire
00:39:02hospital's medical direction
00:39:27it's an honor to meet you dr hart
00:39:33this is dr parker here
00:39:34he's a triple board certified surgeon
00:39:37and soon he'll be the head of trauma surgery
00:39:39this is dr rose
00:39:40chen
00:39:41rose
00:39:42and thomas
00:39:50with this surgical team
00:39:53heart medical can revolutionize
00:39:55surgical care
00:39:56all across the country
00:39:58actually the whole world
00:39:59we're eager to begin
00:40:01we're eager to begin dr hart
00:40:02well
00:40:03welcome to heart medical center
00:40:06i am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us
00:40:09yes
00:40:09but
00:40:10i do need to be transparent
00:40:13we have got considerable ground to cover
00:40:15before we can truly challenge vale hospital's dominance
00:40:18have no fear dr hart
00:40:20with adrian leading our team
00:40:21will be three steps ahead of anything vale attempts
00:40:24yes but vale has already implemented adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols
00:40:31yeah about that
00:40:32it's a preliminary version
00:40:34if they continue to develop this approach without modification
00:40:37then what
00:40:37a lot of deaths
00:40:39a lot of lawsuits
00:40:40a lot of patients could be harmed
00:40:43or worse
00:40:43these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement
00:40:48those techniques require precise calibration
00:40:51and specialized training
00:40:52without that foundation
00:40:54we're talking about serious complications
00:40:57preventable harm
00:40:58our first priority has to be patient safety
00:41:01we need to perfect these procedures
00:41:03and then we can find a way to prevent vale from continuing
00:41:06with the flawed protocols
00:41:08exactly it's not about competition or pride
00:41:11it's about saving lives
00:41:15we're using our experience with the trial procedures i did at vale to develop
00:41:19next generation surgical techniques eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies
00:41:26even if vale hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new
00:41:31we'll maintain our significant advantage
00:41:34and if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols
00:41:38rest assured
00:41:39their outcomes will deteriorate
00:41:42i don't wish it upon their patients
00:41:44that's for sure
00:41:45remember this moment
00:41:46in this battle for medical supremacy
00:41:49heart medical center
00:41:50will emerge victorious
00:41:58it's 3 a.m
00:42:01lost track of time again
00:42:06and if they have you surprised me
00:42:11looks like you could use a nice rub
00:42:15do you mind
00:42:16no
00:42:18i mean
00:42:20yeah
00:42:20will you give all your surgeons
00:42:23massages
00:42:24only the ones i really really like
00:42:32you really really like me

00:42:38nothing's changed
00:42:40you were our most brilliant resident in the program
00:42:43i never imagined someone like you would like me
00:42:45there was never anyone else that got my attention
00:42:49i'll meet you
00:42:52but you were completely oblivious
00:42:54and then you just
00:42:55vanished from the program
00:42:58well i left to join the experimental surgical fellowship in switzerland
00:43:02i know
00:43:05your talent was extraordinary even then
00:43:09back then
00:43:10i made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday
00:43:14you know when i established heart medical center
00:43:16my first priority was recruiting you
00:43:19but that
00:43:20manipulative tyrant
00:43:22nelson vale
00:43:23had already secured your contracts
00:43:26with ridiculous incentives
00:43:29i understand now
00:43:37so
00:43:39should we
00:43:40pick up where we left off in residency
00:43:42you're the boss

00:45:51you are completely worthless as surgeons
00:45:58dr marksman
00:45:59the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate
00:46:03we need at least six months to properly master

00:46:08you have 72 hours and i expect hourly updates on my desk
00:46:13sir
00:46:13rushing these
00:46:14delicate procedures

00:50:02We're chasing dreams and climbing higher Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh
00:50:09Can't hold us back We're waiting to stay
00:50:11Can't hold us back We're going on the way
00:50:26You always this disciplined? Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:50:31If I was trying to impress you, you even know
00:50:35Midnight meetings, long hours, this work ethic of yours, it's a little dangerous
00:50:47That's what Val used to say about me
00:50:50Then they fired me
00:50:54Then they were fools
00:50:58You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian
00:51:01You know that, right?
00:51:07You trying to motivate me again?
00:51:09I don't try
00:51:14I do
00:51:18Well, don't work too late
00:51:23You're no good to me burnt out
00:51:34The incompetence is staggering
00:51:38Yeah, you too are in way over your heads
00:51:42Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:51:45I give you one simple task and you screw it up
00:51:48How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:51:52Vail General Hospital is the gold standard
00:51:56And you two are just standing around like clueless little interns
00:51:59If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow, you're both gone
00:52:03Is that clear?
00:52:05Yes, sir
00:52:06This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:52:12Go
00:52:14Mr. Vale, what a surprise
00:52:21Cut the bullshit, Marksman
00:52:24Are we on schedule or not?
00:52:26Of course
00:52:26We're just refining the final stages
00:52:32Yeah, everything is under control
00:52:34Good
00:52:35But there's a problem, I expect to hear it from you
00:52:37With no cover-ups
00:52:38Of course, sir
00:52:42Mr. Vale
00:52:42Not now
00:52:43Go get me the latest performance reports
00:52:49It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here
00:52:55Don't worry
00:52:56When Preston makes me chief medical officer, I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner
00:53:02I was back at the winning team, Dr. Marksman
00:53:12Today, Vale Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program
00:53:18This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry
00:53:24Especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day
00:53:29The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:53:34Relax, Mr. Vale
00:53:35Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance
00:53:39I hope you're right
00:53:41For your sake
00:53:45Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:53:51It's not a success
00:53:53Yet
00:53:55Enjoy tonight's launch party
00:53:57Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical
00:54:00It'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time
00:54:14Dr. Hurt, we, uh, have a problem
00:54:18Vale Hospital's new surgical program launches today
00:54:21That soon?
00:54:22They're hosting a big celebration party tonight
00:54:28It's a good thing we're headed
00:54:31You're saying we're ready?
00:54:33Why would I lie?
00:54:35We've been tracking Vale's every move
00:54:37Let him celebrate
00:54:38It's just gonna backfire
00:54:40How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:54:44Babe, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:54:49Preston Vale's rushing this
00:54:50He's desperate to beat us to the market
00:54:52And?
00:54:53Their model's flawed
00:54:54If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach
00:55:00We won't have to lift a damn finger
00:55:02And what about when it falls apart?
00:55:04Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery
00:55:08So you're saying that Vale Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed
00:55:13It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast
00:55:16They're using an early draft full of mistakes that I won't make again
00:55:21They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation
00:55:24That actually makes perfect sense
00:55:28Which means we've already won
00:55:31Well, this is a big day for us
00:55:33We should celebrate
00:55:34What do you have in mind? Drinks?
00:55:36Not quite
00:55:38You and I are crashing the Vale launch party tonight
00:55:41What?
00:55:43Why?
00:55:44Let me worry about that
00:55:45In the meantime ensure a smooth rollout
00:55:48Finish whatever procedures you need to
00:55:50And meet me in the lobby at 8pm sharp
00:56:07Preston, we've been through so much together
00:56:10I know where I'm headed in life and I know who I want by my side
00:56:15Tonight, at this launch party
00:56:18Celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program
00:56:21Just like the perfect moment to ask
00:56:24Will you marry me?
00:56:33You should be fun
00:56:34Absolutely
00:56:36You really know how to take care of your stuff, Mr. Vale?
00:56:39Stop it
00:56:40Too bad you're taken
00:56:41Yeah, yeah, what a shame
00:56:43Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:56:45Told her meet me out here so we can go to this party together
00:56:48Forget about her
00:56:49She's just social climbing trash anyways
00:56:52We'll show you a better time
00:56:53Now that's an offer I can't refuse, let's go
00:56:59Fiona who?
00:57:03Oh, you ladies are crazy
00:57:05I'm gonna get to go
00:57:26The number you have dialed is unavailable
00:57:29Please try again later
00:57:34You're crazy
00:57:35You're crazy
00:57:44Oh, you're crazy
00:57:47Oh, no
00:57:47Oh, you're crazy
00:57:55It's 20 in one day
00:57:57All clean, all stable.
00:57:59The experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:58:02You did it.
00:58:05No, we didn't.
00:58:09Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Bale's launch party pronto.
00:58:12You're already late.
00:58:13I need to change that.
00:58:14You don't have time.
00:58:15Where's Vivian?
00:58:18Taking care of something.
00:58:19She said it's really important that you be there and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:58:25Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Bale Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:58:44What the fuck?
00:58:46You're my date and you're wasted.
00:58:48I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:58:50Yeah, God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:58:54So if you want to keep your job and your status, sober up for God's sakes.
00:59:16Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
00:59:19It's giving orderly sheep.
00:59:24Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:59:28What are you doing at our launch party?
00:59:29You weren't invited.
00:59:31You so sure about that?
00:59:32I mean, look at you.
00:59:33This is a black tie?
00:59:34I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
00:59:38Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter.
00:59:42The found surgeon.
00:59:44The fraud.
00:59:45The nobody.
00:59:47You showed up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:59:50I thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the low lives.
00:59:54Guess I need to fire them, too.
00:59:55Pardon me, I just came straight from surgery.
00:59:58Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:00:00What are you trying to say?
01:00:02I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:00:10I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:00:15Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:00:18A genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:00:21You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:00:23Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:00:25When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:00:33What are you talking about?
01:00:35Identity theft?
01:00:37And whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:00:39Yours?
01:00:41Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:00:43If you don't got it, you just act like you do.
01:00:47Speaking from experience.
01:00:50Look around you.
01:00:52This is the elite among the elite.
01:00:54The best of the best in the medical field.
01:00:57Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:01:01Good.
01:01:02I'm glad.
01:01:03Because you're all beneath me.
01:01:05Isn't that right?
01:01:06Dr. Marksman.
01:01:08That's enough.
01:01:09Guards!
01:01:10This former employee is threatening us.
01:01:13Kick him out.
01:01:15Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:01:19I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:01:22What are you dumbasses doing?
01:01:24Grab him!
01:01:39Christy!
01:01:40What the hell is this?
01:01:43Dad.
01:01:44Relax.
01:01:45I, uh...
01:01:45Relax?
01:01:47This twat came in uninvited.
01:01:49I was just kicking him out.
01:01:50Guards!
01:01:50Remove him immediately.
01:01:51President Vail, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:01:54You get out of my way!
01:01:56Dad, what are you doing?
01:01:57This is, this is, this is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:02:02You are such a fool!
01:02:05Dad!
01:02:06What are you, what are you doing?
01:02:08Open your eyes, Preston.
01:02:10This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:02:14Uh...
01:02:15You are a...
01:02:17Disgrace!
01:02:18Dad!
01:02:20Dad!
01:02:20My hospital meant something and...
01:02:22You turned it into a...
01:02:24Into a...
01:02:27Dad!
01:02:32Dad!
01:02:34President Vail.
01:02:36Fuck away from my dad!
01:02:38Are you out of your mind?
01:02:39He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:02:41Oh yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:02:43I'll die before I trust you two.
01:02:44Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:02:47David!
01:02:48David!
01:02:49Do something!
01:02:50It's cold!
01:02:54Can't think of what to do next?
01:02:57Blanking?
01:02:57Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:02:59Shut up!
01:03:00Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:03:03This is ridiculous.
01:03:04I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:03:07Why are you just standing there?
01:03:08Do something!
01:03:10Uh...
01:03:10What's the matter, David?
01:03:12If you need help, just ask.
01:03:14All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:03:17Right here.
01:03:18Right now.
01:03:19I can't blow my cover, but...
01:03:22What if I kill him?
01:03:24I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:03:26I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:03:28I did medical school on Zoom.
01:03:31David.
01:03:32This is a matter of life and death.
01:03:35Let it go!
01:03:41I can't do this.
01:03:45I can't do this.
01:03:46Okay, I can't.
01:03:46I can't do this.
01:03:48I can't do this without my notebook.
01:03:55That's my surgical notebook.
01:03:57He stole it from me.
01:04:05Okay, okay.
01:04:07I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:04:12I can't do this.
01:04:14Okay.
01:04:15I got it.
01:04:15I got it.
01:04:16Here, take it, take it, take it.
01:04:18Okay.
01:04:19All right, hold his head, but tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:04:25Okay.
01:04:36Okay.
01:04:38Okay.
01:04:39Great.
01:04:40Fall.
01:04:42Okay.
01:04:46Oh, thank God.
01:04:47How are you?
01:04:48Let it out.
01:04:54Oh, that's my guy.
01:04:56Surgical genius.
01:04:58That's how Val makes history.
01:05:00Somebody get this man a medal.
01:05:02Or at least a new department.
01:05:04If you still want that chief medical officer position, say the word.
01:05:09Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:05:13That maneuver.
01:05:15That notebook.
01:05:16It's mine.
01:05:17Then tell them.
01:05:22Where is he going?
01:05:23Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:05:28Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:05:31Say, hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:05:38That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:05:42What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:05:44He's delusional.
01:05:46Somebody, seriously, check this guy's medical license.
01:05:49The notebook he used to save your father.
01:05:52That's mine.
01:05:53My handwriting.
01:05:55My theories.
01:05:57I'm just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:06:00I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:06:04And when it fails,
01:06:07then it will.
01:06:09You're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:06:12The patients will.
01:06:13You can't prove that.
01:06:14Not yet.
01:06:16But you can't fake medicine.
01:06:19Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:06:25Our three's vitals just dropped.
01:06:27We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:06:28Second patient today.
01:06:30Same issue.
01:06:31Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:06:33These techniques aren't viable.
01:06:35The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:06:38I mean, come on.
01:06:39Tonight proves it.
01:06:41We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:06:51I'll be right back.
01:06:53Just coordinating with the team.
01:06:57Talk to me.
01:06:58The vascular fundoclant maneuver failed again.
01:07:01This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:07:05Use the compression step.
01:07:07That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:07:10We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:07:13Look, just follow the notes.
01:07:18I designed those techniques for 101 guidance.
01:07:22Not mass implementation.
01:07:24Without calibration.
01:07:26It's unstable.
01:07:27It's dangerous.
01:07:28They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:07:31Now people are paying for it.
01:07:34All good?
01:07:35Of course.
01:07:37Just routine coordination.
01:07:39Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:07:43Your surgical program is failing.
01:07:45And patients are suffering.
01:07:47You've been out of the field for months.
01:07:48You wouldn't know?
01:07:49Yeah, I would know.
01:07:51Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:07:54And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:07:59Bullshit.
01:08:05Oh, yes, this is Dr. Marksman.
01:08:08Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:08:12Okay.
01:08:13Listen very carefully.
01:08:14Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:08:23No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial ligation,
01:08:29followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:08:37Yes.
01:08:39Yes.
01:08:42How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:08:45His whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:08:48You stole his methods.
01:08:49This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:08:55Uh, that's a lie.
01:08:56Then prove me wrong.
01:08:58Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:09:03Why would we believe anything he says?
01:09:05He was fired.
01:09:06He's humiliated.
01:09:07You're right.
01:09:08I was fired.
01:09:09And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:09:15You know what?
01:09:16This is pathetic.
01:09:17He's just jealous.
01:09:18He missed his shot.
01:09:19Is that what you told yourself when you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:09:25Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:09:29I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:09:43I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:09:46And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:09:53Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:09:56You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, and you fired him.
01:10:01The one person who could make them safe.
01:10:05Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:10:09Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:10:11This hospital was built on trust and integrity, and you've disgraced them both.
01:10:17Your father nearly died because of your ego.
01:10:21Because of his lies.
01:10:24You saved me.
01:10:26You saved Nelson.
01:10:28And now, you can save Vale.
01:10:31I tried to warn you all.
01:10:33No one listened.
01:10:34Well, they're listening now.
01:10:36You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two.
01:10:41And probably even more than me.
01:10:43It was a mistake to let you go.
01:10:47Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.
01:10:52They weren't ready.
01:10:53They needed supervision.
01:10:55Precision.
01:10:56Precision.
01:10:57Development.
01:10:58Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:11:02Oh.
01:11:02You can't prove that.
01:11:05Security footage.
01:11:09Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital, already submitted to the board.
01:11:16I built on what he started, okay?
01:11:19I didn't steal.
01:11:21I enhanced it.
01:11:23Then why were patients about to die?
01:11:26You falsified rollout readiness?
01:11:29He did more than that.
01:11:31He put lives at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:11:36We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:11:39This is absurd.
01:11:42This was supposed to be our night.
01:11:43Oh, it's your night.
01:11:46Just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:11:48You lied to me.
01:11:50I didn't lie.
01:11:51I simplified the truth.
01:11:53Simplify?
01:11:54You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:11:59You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:12:01You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:12:05That's malpractice.
01:12:06They worked.
01:12:07Nelson's alive.
01:12:09Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:12:11Yeah, because of me.
01:12:12Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:12:17Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:12:20Wait, these really are your techniques?
01:12:22I tested them for years.
01:12:25It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:12:28Not without training.
01:12:29You're rewriting history?
01:12:31No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:12:34Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.
01:12:38And without him, it won't.
01:12:41This is absurd!
01:12:42You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:12:46He's not disgraced, son.
01:12:48You are.
01:12:50You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:12:52And then when your ego wasn't enough, you propped up this fraud.
01:13:00Taking his side, Dad?
01:13:02I'm your son.
01:13:03I'm taking the side of truth.
01:13:06And so will the board.
01:13:07We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:13:11Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:13:16Suspended?
01:13:17No, no, no, you can't do that.
01:13:18You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:13:20We understand the liability.
01:13:22That's enough.
01:13:25Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Marksman, come with us.
01:13:31Dad, you're not going to have to drag me out like this.
01:13:33I'm your son.
01:13:34No, don't you touch me.
01:13:35You're not a child.
01:13:37Hey, Dad!
01:13:38I'm your son of a bitch!
01:13:40You're just kidding, son of a bitch!
01:13:41Dad, why don't you do something?
01:13:42Get off me!
01:13:43I'm your son of a bitch!
01:13:44You're not a child!
01:13:45You're not my responsibility!
01:13:54Adrian, please.
01:13:55I made a mistake.
01:13:56I see that now.
01:13:57I should have believed in you.
01:13:59I should have stood by you.
01:14:01You were right about everything.
01:14:06Just give me a second chance.
01:14:09Please!
01:14:10I still love you.
01:14:13Love, you traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:14:17You don't understand.
01:14:19I thought he was finished.
01:14:22I thought he had nothing left.
01:14:24So you sold him out.
01:14:26Mocked him.
01:14:27Over and over again.
01:14:29I was scared.
01:14:31I didn't know what to do.
01:14:33Oh, you knew.
01:14:34You just didn't care.
01:14:36Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:14:40Please.
01:14:42Say something.
01:14:45Anything.
01:14:46You had your chance, Fiona.
01:14:48And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:15:00You always belonged in my operating room, and I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known
01:15:06what was going on behind the scenes.
01:15:08The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board, and David will never go near another patient again.
01:15:17We're rebuilding.
01:15:19And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:15:27I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:15:29You had your chance, too.
01:15:31I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:15:34Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:15:38Adrian 2.0.
01:15:39I'm not coming, man.
01:15:43You're choosing her?
01:15:45Our rival?
01:15:46You arrogant little ingrate.
01:15:49I open the door for you, and you slam it in my face.
01:15:53Just typical.
01:15:55Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?
01:16:00She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:16:04Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:16:07Get me out of here.
01:16:09Now!
01:16:11Oh.
01:16:15Oh!
01:16:19Oh, fuck.
01:16:20Oh, fuck.
01:16:21Oh, fuck.
01:16:22Oh, fuck.
01:16:23Oh, fuck.
01:16:23Oh, fuck.
01:16:25Oh!
01:16:27Karma has good timing.
01:16:31Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:16:34We have lives to save.
01:16:36Hey!
01:16:38Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:16:42I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:16:48Now?
01:16:49Well, there's no time like the present.
01:16:58This is what victory tastes like.
01:17:00This is what victory tastes like.
01:17:01It's not bad.
01:17:03I need a second opinion.
01:17:07Well, I've got a second opinion.
01:17:08Well, I've got all night, and you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:17:14Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:17:17You're already exceeding expectations.
01:17:19You're already exceeding expectations.
01:17:20But I am very thorough.
01:17:29Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:17:34Besides being you, of course.
01:17:36Besides being you, of course.
01:17:36If you were me, of course.
01:17:40Likewards.
01:17:47I feel numéro 4 or 3 going for you.
01:17:59Why would you like me for laughing?
01:18:00Because you're so violent.
01:18:00You
