00:05Someone help!
00:06Move back everyone! The boy isn't breathing!
00:09Lemmy, I can help.
00:10Blue lamps?
00:12It could be an airway blockage.
00:21How did you know what to do?
00:22I save lives for a living.
00:24I'm a doctor.
00:28Hello?
00:29The VirusX 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.
00:44A position 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.
00:52Especially when his symptoms can appear any day.
00:55I understand.
00:56But think about it.
00:57Think about what you deserve.
01:03Brock!
01:04What the hell is going on?
01:07You can see for yourself.
01:08We haven't slept together in three years, Della.
01:11What do you expect me to do?
01:13Celinda 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.
01:20I didn't expect you to do something like this behind my back.
01:23Della, Brock's an amazing man.
01:26If you don't want him, why shouldn't I?
01:31Della!
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.
01:42And one more thing, Celinda.
01:45Brock is infected with Virus X.
01:47That'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.
02:02I gave up everything for them.
02:05This is the end.
02:07It's time to leave.
02:07Della, are you sure you want to give up this job?
02:10Seriously, where would you even go?
02:12No one's going to hire you anyways.
02:14You're so right, Brock.
02:15She's so replaceable.
02:17At work and at home.
02:21And she'll hear a little achievement while you still can.
02:23Sorry, 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.
02:31Including CCTV footage of the two of you using my office as a bedroom.
02:36Oh, one more thing.
02:37My dearest husband, Virus X is why I didn't sleep with you.
02:42But that's not the only reason.
02:43I always knew I deserved someone better.
02:47That's just another excuse for your sad little life.
02:50You're a resident, Della.
02:51Don't pretend you know more than me.
02:53Virus X doesn't even exist.
02:55Security!
02:56She is stealing confidential hospital data.
02:59Get her out of here!
02:59Ma'am, we need you to stop.
03:08Brock!
03:10Brock!
03:11What's happening?
03:13Virus X.
03:15Stop making things up.
03:17Stress and low oxygen will make it worse.
03:20Stop this nonsense!
03:22Security!
03:23Throw her out!
03:24Virus X is primarily transmitted through sexual contact.
03:27You slept with him.
03:29Repeatedly.
03:33Full body convulsions.
03:35Chest pain.
03:36Jugular veins distented.
03:37All Virus X symptoms.
03:39Don't touch me!
03:41I know your filthy game.
03:43You'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.
03:58I'm really trying to help you here.
04:01What's going on here?
04:05Della, get your hands off my son.
04:08Dr. John, he's showing classic Virus X symptoms.
04:11He needs to be isolated immediately.
04:14Dad.
04:15Don't listen to her.
04:17We're separated.
04:19She's just making things up.
04:23Someone bring the stretcher!
04:30Since when did junior physicians lecture me about imaginary virus?
04:34I still don't know what my son ever saw in you.
04:36Dr. John, she's fired today.
04:38This Virus X story is just her last stunt before her ass is out the door.
04:42You'd really sink that low?
04:43Inventing a virus to save your job?
04:45Dr. John...
04:46Enough!
04:47Enough!
04:47I won't hear another word from you.
04:49Get her out!
04:50Now!
04:52Contact Dr. Williams.
04:54Bring him to the Fae-G.
04:55Immediately!
05:08You wouldn't come to me.
05:11But here I am coming to you.
05:20Advanced Strain.
05:21Advanced Strain.
05:21Virus X.
05:22That's what we're dealing with.
05:23He's going to be okay.
05:25Right?
05:26You're the best, Harvey.
05:28You've gotta fix him.
05:29I slowed the progression.
05:31The fever will break for a few hours and he will be up and about.
05:34But 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.
05:46But one person might.
05:48Our lead researcher since the start.
05:50Diane.
05:51Then find her.
05:53Use everything I have.
05:55I don't care where she is.
05:58I don't care what she wants.
06:00Bring her to me.
06:01Now.
06:04Where are you?
06:05I'm in Fiji.
06:06The hospital you're working at.
06:08A patient needs you.
06:09You mean, Brock.
06:11They threw me out, Harvey.
06:13You really think they'll let me anywhere near him?
06:15They will.
06:16Once they know who you really are.
06:19Diane.
06:23I'm giving my keynote speech day after tomorrow at the Fiji Marriott.
06:27Please, meet me there.
06:28Not as Della.
06:30But as Diane.

10:32doctor to lie for her we all know the answer she slept her way in not only for this but
10:39for everything
10:39she's a slut of fraud enough enough i've listened to this long enough you call her a clueless resident
10:49you call her a fraud the woman behind me didn't seduce her way in here she is the reason you
10:56are all
10:56standing here you've been searching for the lead researcher who first studied virus x the only person
11:03capable of finding a cure allow me to introduce her she is not whoever this dela woman these people are
11:09talking about she is dr diane reyes the world's foremost virologist
11:18come on harvey you really expect us to believe the world's most sought-after virologist was hiding out
11:25as a junior physician in my hospital the legendary dr diane reyes her i knew you were desperate but
11:31getting a world-class doctor to lie for you what did you have to do oh my i think very
11:37carefully before
11:38you say another word you listen carefully harvey i hired you to save my son fine she's mysterious
11:44everyone knows that but don't insult me by claiming this two-bit tramp is her
11:50you have no idea who you were talking to john you're gambling with your son's life for the sake
11:56of your ego no you're gambling with his life if she's so much as lays a hand on my son
12:04i'll have her
12:05charged with murder see i told you they don't want my help we are wasting our time here look at
12:12her
12:14still pretending she's diane you've played everyone dela my son the board the hospital looks like even
12:21dr williams if you really are the legendary diane if you really are the only one who can treat virus
12:29x
12:30stop hiding behind harvey prove it or you leave this room in handcuffs
12:43we don't have all day you haven't found virus x because you've been looking in the wrong place
12:48virus x doesn't announce itself it hides by mimicking our body's own proteins that's absurd we've run full
12:55panels multiple times if there were a virus it would have showed up what you're describing sounds
13:00like science fiction i've studied it longer than anyone here i know how it behaves it attacks in
13:06brutal sequences stage one severe nausea vomiting blood you've already seen that stage two in 48 hours
13:13the patient will have difficulty breathing stage three total collapse internal bleeding then seizures
13:21because the brain is being starved of oxygen wait a second girl brock has a cough he's coughing up
13:28blood because he drinks and smokes like a chimney your son is going to be fine why are we even
13:34entertaining this enough of this i've heard enough bad science fiction for one day so you don't believe
13:41me right five four three what are you doing two one
13:57this is stage two you 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
14:55right 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 if we
15:27wait the brain damage becomes permanent it's too aggressive diane even for you you're trying to burn
15:32the virus out you'll burn the patient with it we stabilize first then we move we don't have that
15:37kind of time i've lived with this strain in my head for three years you've not changed one bit diana
15:44still impossible to argue with i just never understood why you walked away from the project and from me
15:51i'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
16:06stronger than her petty gains i didn't realize because you were too busy being the legendary dr harvey
16:12williams i chose brock because he saw me not my lab results my research papers turns out that was a
16:19lie
16:20too diane i never saw you as disposable diane i saw you as the only person who understood the
16:29world the way i did rachel was just noise you were everything biohazard breach detected level four
16:41quarantine initiated someone had triggered it from outside we're locked in
16:52so please tell me rachel didn't somehow cause this what how would rachel even be anywhere near
16:57this 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
17:23that that was just adrenaline a high stress response is that what we're calling it a response
17:33we have work to do brock is still dying fine back to work but first coffee
17:42you remembered i never forgot anything about you diane especially how much you need coffee to function
17:52uh for a minute there i forgot brock forgot the virus forgot everything but i thought it was just a
17:59high
17:59stress response two black coffees please

24:44Harvey, what was that?
24:47The grid must have tripped.
24:50Don't move.
24:52Emergency power should kick in.
24:59Something's on me.
25:00Harvey, it's on my foot.
25:02Get it off.
25:03Harvey.
25:11I've got you.
25:13Easy.
25:14I'm not letting you fall.
25:16Just 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?
25:43Your heart is still racing.
25:46It's not because of the mouse anymore.
26:04Harvey, look.
26:05Look at the protein fault.
26:08It's holding.
26:09The baseline's stable.
26:11That means...
26:12You're still asking?
26:13You know what this means.
26:15It's not a prototype.
26:17It's the cure.
26:19We did it.
26:20After everything.
26:22We actually did it.
26:24Virus X has a cure.
26:33My phone?
26:38Della, wait.
26:40Della, wait.
26:41I can explain why.
26:48You told me I dropped it.
26:50But it was in your pocket the whole time?
26:54Della, 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.
27:06I 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.
27:27Everything 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?
27:37Who are you?
27:41Not answering is worse than lying, Harvey.
27:46Because it means there's more.
27:48Tell me right now.
27:51What 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?
28:11Is 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.
28:24Liar.
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?
28:53My mother's ring?
29:07You 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.
29:25I wanted to marry you, but...
29:27You chose Brock.
29:29So, I didn't intervene.
29:31I sacrificed everything to keep up with him.
29:34And in the end, all that I got was betrayal.
29:37Don't let him get to you.
29:38He is not even good enough for you.
29:41Maybe I'm not good enough for him.
29:43Maybe...
29:43I shouldn't have expected to find someone way out of my league.
29:47What do you even mean?
29:48You are special, Diane.
29:51There is no one else like you.
29:52Really?
29:53Do you think so?
29:55I know so.
29:56You are one of a...
30:21I didn't want to believe it either, John.
30:22But while your son was fighting for his life, Harvey and Della were busy warming a hotel bed.
30:30I knew it.
30:31The second she walked in, I knew she's a fraud.
30:34The whole Virus X project is a scam.
30:37A way for them to siphon research funds.
30:40They've already written your son off.
30:42Left him to die while they planned their escape from Fiji.
30:45They are the best in the world.
30:46They promised me a cure.
30:48They promised you a fantasy, Mr. John.
30:52Just long enough to keep you signing checks.
30:55Now, they've disappeared because there is no cure.
31:00I won't let them turn my son's life into a joke.
31:03Then stop them.
31:04Before they leave the island.
31:06Find out where they are.
31:08I don't want this dragged out.
31:09I want them dead.
31:17The structure is locked.
31:19It's stable.
31:20But this can't go on shelves yet.
31:22It has to go to Virus X HQ and Suva first.
31:25Without WHO validation, this is not a cure yet.
31:29It's a trophy.
31:30And a target.
31:32Then let's go.
31:34Now.
31:39Ten miles to Suva.
31:40We might beat the morning briefing.
31:42Don't celebrate yet.
31:43We're still in the dark.
31:46We're still in the dark.
31:54We've got company.
31:58Who is it?
32:25Roadblock!
32:28Down! Out now!
32:31Into 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. Remember you had a deal with my father. You promised a cure to your made
33:06-up Virus X.
33:07We ran to save you. Virus X isn't made up. And yes, we do have a cure. We were taking
33:14this to international headquarters to authorize mass production. And for you. For everyone after you.
33:21Don't listen to her, Brock. That's not a cure. It's a sedative. They'll knock you out, drain your dad's money,
33:28and disappear for good.
33:28I would listen to Della if I were you. Your lungs are failing. You don't have time.
33:34I don't want to die! I don't!
33:35Then shoot them. We'll find you a real doctor.
33:38There is no one else. I made this. I'm the only one who knows the dose.
33:44Look at yourself. The tremors. The blue in your fingertips.
33:55Then do it right now!
33:57Brock, don't-
33:58Shut up!
34:00If this kills me, you shoot them.
34:04This will feel cold.
34:12Brock?
34:14Brock?!
34:15Brock?!
34:21There's no pulse.
34:25You killed him!
34:36Like Brock said, I'll end you both.
34:50Stop!
34:52He's breathing.
34:54Harvey, he's breathing.
34:59He's having a severe reaction.
35:02But the viral load is crashing.
35:04The cure's working.
35:05But he needs medical-induced sedation and ICU monitoring.
35:08But before that, get that Rachel bitch.
35:25You did the impossible, Della.
35:27I mean, Dr. Diane Reyes.
35:30I was wrong.
35:32I let fear turn me into someone I don't recognize.
35:35I'll give you anything.
35:37I promise.
35:39Please 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, you just stopped a global pandemic.
36:01How does it feel?
36:02Like I'm finally free.
36:07You ready?
36:09I'm scared, Della.
36:11I'm scared, Della.
36:16I'm scared, Della.
36:18Anything is possible.
36:20As long as we're together.
36:22I'll do that more.
36:24I'll be back.
36:26I'll be back.
36:33I'll be back.
