Short filmTranscript
00:00After 48 straight hours in the operating room at Chicago Med, I passed out cold on a red-eye to
00:04LAX.
00:05Sir, this flight is oversold. You need to deplane. Now!
00:08A woman was being ushered onto the plane by the crew, all smiles and bowed heads.
00:11She gets on? And I, who already boarded, get kicked off?
00:16That's Victoria Harrington. Her father owns Harrington Pharmaceuticals.
00:19She's rushing to LA for surgery with the Dr. Blake.
00:22You can't even afford a full fare ticket, you broke loser.
00:25Here's 50 bucks. Now get lost.
00:30My bag and I got dumped onto the jet bridge.
00:32I watched him turn back to fawn over Victoria and I smiled.
00:35He thought I was some broke nobody who couldn't afford a plane ticket.
00:38What he didn't know was that I am Dr. Blake.
00:40The same Dr. Blake the Harringtons had been begging for an entire year to finally fly out to LA and
00:46perform that surgery.
00:47The same Dr. Blake who's pioneering minimally invasive cardiac technique the medical establishment had spent five years trying to bury.
00:53They kicked me off? Fine. The surgery's off.
00:56Victoria Harrington can just go ahead and die.
01:02I need a refund!
01:04Can't refund it.
01:05What do you mean you can't refund it?
01:06Your airline oversold the flight.
01:08I boarded legally, then got forcibly removed.
01:10Now you're telling me you won't refund my ticket?
01:15You chose to get off the plane.
01:16That's on you, not the airline.
01:18What, you think every passenger who changes their mind gets a free refund?
01:21We'd go bront.
01:22Keep your voice down. This is a workplace.
01:25I knew it was you. Causing trouble on the plane wasn't enough? Now you're harassing our staff on the ground?
01:28So that's what I smelled on the plane. Cheap cologne and desperation. You reek of poverty.
01:33What, 50 bucks wasn't enough? Now you want the whole fare refund too?
01:37Look at this guy. Young, able buddy and pulling scams on an airline? Unbelievable.
01:41We heard him. He chose to get off. Now he wants money for it? He's clearly insane.
01:45At least the public understands. We in customer service deal with people like this every day.
01:49It's fine. We're used to the abuse.
01:51I pushed through the crowd and grabbed a supervisor by the arm.
01:54Write me a refund slip. Make it clear.
01:57Oversold flight, forcible denial of boarding, and that's why I'm seeking a refund.
02:01That way, when the Harringtons came calling, they'd know I didn't just flake on them.
02:04Refund? In your dreams. Get him out of here.
02:07Here. You're going to regret this.
02:12You're going to regret this. I'll be waiting for you to beg.
02:18Oh, look. A junkie. That explains the grafting. Probably doesn't have long to live anyway.
02:23Guys like you? Wasting oxygen. Do the world a favor and drop dead already.
02:27The experimental targeted gene therapy inside, the only batch in existence, leaked into a puddle on the floor.
02:31The only medication that could get Victoria Harrington through the critical post-op infection window gone.
02:35Now, she could actually go ahead and die.
02:37I've seen your type before. Trying to get Victoria Harrington's attention so you can be her kept man.
02:43Two security guards grabbed me by the arms and threw me out like a bag of trash.
02:47Get lost. Don't contaminate our airport with your presence.
02:50I reached for my phone to call 911, but it was already buzzing like crazy. I answered.
02:54Harrington's head of security, Marcus Webb, immediately started screaming.
02:58Where the hell are you? The airline says you demanded to get off the plane?
03:01The Harrington's put 10 million into your hospital just to get you here.
03:04And you're pulling stunts? Do you have any idea who you're dealing with?
03:07We have private doctors on Retentor.
03:08We only called you because Victoria's case is terminal and you're supposedly the best.
03:12Don't you dare get cute with us.
03:14If you're not in that OR tonight, I will personally make sure you never practice medicine in this country again.
03:20And if anything happens to Ms. Harrington, you'll wish you'd never been born.
03:26The line went dead. I took a deep breath and called back.
03:29Stop wasting time and get your ass to L.A. Now!
03:31I'm not coming. Ask the flight attendant on Victoria's plane why.
03:34I logged into my bank account and wired back the $50,000 deposit the Harringtons had paid me.
03:3950 grand wasn't worth my dignity.
03:41I hung up before Marcus could respond, then blocked his number.
03:44I looked at the destroyed vials of experimental medication and let out a cold laugh.
03:47Victoria Harrington's life? Not my problem anymore.
03:50I grabbed a cab back to the hospital.
03:54You harassed Victoria Harrington?
03:56The flight attendant said you caused a scene, tried to extort the airline, and made the crew fear for their
04:02safety.
04:03He had no choice but to remove you.
04:05The Harringtons are worth billions.
04:07What are you worth? Nothing!
04:08You turned down their invitation and I swear to God, your career is over!
04:16The flight attendant had done a hell of a job spinning the story.
04:19And the Harringtons, billionaires who could afford any lawyer, any private investigator, hadn't even bothered to pull the security footage.
04:25They just believed the first story they heard.
04:27Morrison kept screaming.
04:28Either you get on a plane and do that surgery tonight, or you clean out your besk right now.
04:33This hospital afforded to piss off the Harringtons.
04:35And frankly, we can't afford you.
04:36I didn't say a word.
04:37I just found a piece of paper and a pen and wrote out my resignation.
04:40Three years of non-stop surgeries, no real days off, being called in at 2 a.m. to cover for
04:44some attending who didn't feel like working.
04:46Three years of watching Morrison and his cronies at the medical board try to bury my research because it threatened
04:51their profitable established procedures.
04:52I was done.
04:54Are you insane?
04:55I yell at you a little and you quit?
04:57Yeah, I'm done.
04:59I'm going to Cancun.
05:00Tell the Harringtons to come find me if they want me so bad.
05:04Blake, get back here!
05:08I checked my watch.
05:09One hour had passed since Victoria boarded that plane.
05:12Her condition should be hitting its crisis point by now.
05:14Without my medication and my technique, that flight wasn't taking her to L.A.
05:18It was taking her straight to the morgue.
05:22I went home, turned off my phone, and collapsed.
05:24After 74 hours without sleep, I woke up a full day later, finally feeling like a human being again.
05:29Dozens of missed calls, dozens of voicemails.
05:32I declined call after call.
05:33Finally, on the 15th try, I answered.
05:35Dr. Blake, please, please get to L.A.
05:38Victoria Harrington is seizing.
05:39She's turning blue.
05:40The airline has cleared a private jet for you.
05:42You called me a broke loser who couldn't afford a begging me to fly?
05:45Now you're funny how that works.
05:46Shut up!
05:47Without the Harringtons leaning on you, you wouldn't even have my number!
05:50You're still just...
05:52I hung up, blocked the number.
05:55Ten minutes later, someone started pounding on my front door like they were trying to knock it down.
05:59I pulled up my doorbell camera and almost laughed.
06:01That same flight attendant, plus three huge guys with crowbars, was literally crying at my door.
06:07Blake!
06:08Get out here or we're breaking this door down!
06:10I'll tie you up and drag you to the plane if I have to!
06:12The Harringtons must have leaned hard on the airline.
06:14My next door neighbor, I didn't even know her name.
06:17Excuse me, what's going on?
06:18What did Dr. Blake do?
06:20He took $100,000 to do a surgery and then ghosted.
06:22Now the patient's dying and he's hiding in his apartment like a coward.
06:25He belongs in prison.
06:26The neighbor's face is curdled.
06:27I knew it!
06:28He never even helped me with that rash I asked about last month, probably because he's a fraud.
06:32$100,000?
06:32And he's too scared to operate?
06:34He clearly knows he'd kill the patient.
06:37Break it down!
06:38The Harringtons are breathing my neck and I'm not going down alone!
06:44Just as he said it, click, the door swung open.
06:48The second I stepped out, a bucket of dirty mop water hit me in the chest.
06:53I was pulling out my phone, soaked but still working, to call the cops when heavy, synchronized footsteps echoed down
06:58the hall.
07:00Marcus Webb, the Harringtons' head of security, walked in pinching his nose like he'd just stepped in something foul.
07:05He looked at me like I was a piece of trash just as fast.
07:08The flight attendant's face transformed.
07:10Mr. Webb!
07:11I was just about to tell you I found him!
07:13The surgery will happen tonight!
07:15I guarantee it!
07:16Marcus didn't even look at him.
07:19Dr. Blake.
07:19He just pulled a check from his inside pocket.
07:21$100,000.
07:22Up front.
07:23Another $100,000 when the surgery's done.
07:26$200,000.
07:26More than you'll make in five years.
07:29Get on the plane.
07:30The Harringtons are willing to forget everything that happened.
07:32Gasps rippled through the crowd.
07:34Eyes went wide at the check.
07:35Even the flight attendant swallowed hard.
07:39I took the check, and then I ripped it in half.
07:42Then ripped it again.
07:43Pieces of paper fluttered to the floor like confetti.
07:47Marcus's face went from neutral to murderous in half a second.
07:50His voice dropped to ice.
07:54Dr. Blake, don't mistake our generosity for weakness.
07:58If you won't come willingly, we have other ways.
08:03I heard your daughter goes to Sunshine Kindergarten.
08:05Oak Street.
08:06My blood went cold.
08:08How the hell did they know about Lily?
08:09Marcus saw my face change and smiled.
08:11If you touch my daughter, I swear!
08:13That's entirely up to you, doctor.
08:15If something happens to Miss Harrington, I can't guarantee your daughter won't have a little accident, too.
08:21Pack his bag.
08:22We're leaving.
08:22Wow.
08:23The Harringtons ask you to work and you play hard to get?
08:25That's a bold strategy.
08:25Let's see if it pays off.
08:27What the hell are you laughing at?
08:30Laughing because you have no idea what's about to happen.
08:34Even if I go, Victoria will still die.
08:39What do you mean?
08:40In the first flicker of fear.
08:43The medication that could get your boss's daughter through the infection window.
08:46He stomped it into powder.
08:47The only batch of that experimental gene therapy in existence.
08:50No medication, no miracle.
08:52Not from me, not from anyone.
08:54The flight attendant's face went white.
08:57That's bullshit!
08:58There was never any medication.
09:00Those were just vitamins.
09:01He was scrambling so hard, I almost felt bad for him.
09:05Don't listen to him, Mr. Webb!
09:07He's trying to cover for his own incompetence!
09:10Nothing the Harringtons can't find out, right?
09:12So go check the footage.
09:14Marcus looked at me, still laughing, then at the flight attendant.
09:17Looked like he was about to throw up.
09:20Finally, Marcus grunted.
09:23One dose of medication?
09:25We have money.
09:27We have resources.
09:28We'll find more.
09:29Put him in the car.
09:33The bodyguards blindfolded me
09:35and shoved me into the back of a black SUV.
09:45Three hours later,
09:46after they power-washed the mop water off me in a loading dock,
09:50they pushed me into the ICU.
09:56Victoria Harrington,
09:57who'd looked like a million bucks just yesterday,
09:59was gray, barely breathing.
10:02When they saw my face,
10:03their eyes went wide.
10:04Dr. Blake!
10:05The Dr. Blake!
10:06Thank God!
10:07His Harringtons going to make it.
10:08A man in a $3,000 suit pushed through the crowd.
10:11Arthur Harrington, Victoria's father.
10:12He didn't say hello.
10:14He tossed a blank check at my feet.
10:15Name your price.
10:17I'll make you the most famous surgeon in America.
10:22I gritted my teeth.
10:23But if she dies,
10:24every single one of them was garbage.
10:25You and your whole family will wish you'd never been born.
10:29I looked him dead in the eye and smiled.
10:32With all due respect, sir,
10:33you'd be better off spending your money on a nice cemetery plot.
10:38Because she doesn't have long.
10:50Did you just curse my daughter?
10:56Get his kid!
10:58Now!
10:58Let's see how brave he is when she's in the room.
11:00From down the hall,
11:01I heard a little girl start screaming.
11:03You're animals.
11:04Can you do the surgery now?
11:06I took a deep breath,
11:07pulled out my phone,
11:08hit play.
11:09The medication your daughter needed?
11:12Here's what happened to it.
11:15The video showed the flight attendant smirking,
11:17proud of himself,
11:18stomping the vials into dust.
11:23I've seen your type before,
11:25trying to get Victoria Harrington's attention
11:26so you can be her kept man.
11:28Arthur Harrington's head turned slowly
11:29toward the flight attendant.
11:30The flight attendant dropped to his knees.
11:32Mr. Harrington, Mr. Harrington, please.
11:33Let me explain.
11:35Crack.
11:36One kick.
11:36Arthur Harrington wasn't a small man.
11:38The flight attendant flew across the room.
11:40It wasn't me!
11:41Those weren't real drugs!
11:42He's lying!
11:46The flight attendant lay crumpled on the floor,
11:48gasping for breath.
11:49Then his eyes landed on someone.
11:51A tall, distinguished man in an expensive suit.
11:53He'd been standing in the corner the whole time,
11:55observing.
11:56The flight attendant dragged himself across the floor
11:58and grabbed the man's leg.
11:59Dr. Hamilton!
12:00Dr. Hamilton is the chief medical advisor
12:02to the hospital board.
12:03He's top ten nationally in cardiac surgery.
12:05He can save Miss Harrington!
12:07Blake is a fraud.
12:08He's all reputation and no skill.
12:09His so-called minimally invasive technique
12:11is just a way to cover up his incompetence.
12:13Dr. Hamilton stepped back like the flight attendant
12:15was contagious,
12:15smoothing his suit jacket,
12:16but he didn't say no.
12:26Mr. Harrington,
12:28I don't understand why you trust a man
12:29who's currently under investigation
12:30by the medical board.
12:34His paper in the New England Journal of Medicine
12:37couldn't survive peer review.
12:38There's a reason his technique hasn't been adopted
12:40by any major institution.
12:42I've handled hundreds of cases like your daughter's.
12:44Following the established clinical pathway,
12:46I can guarantee a 95% success rate.
12:49A surgeon with no institutional backing,
12:52no published replication studies,
12:53no board certification in three of the five relevant subspecialties,
12:57and he wants to lecture me about cardiac care?
13:00Arthur Harrington's eyes moved between us.
13:02On one hand,
13:03Dr. Hamilton,
13:04Harvard-trained,
13:05published in every major journal.
13:06On the other hand,
13:07me,
13:08rumpled,
13:08tired.
13:09Arthur Harrington made his choice.
13:12Go ahead and get up.
13:21Dr. Hamilton,
13:23if you save my daughter,
13:25Harrington Pharmaceuticals will fund your research
13:27for the next decade.
13:28Unlimited budget.
13:29Hamilton allowed himself a small smile.
13:31You won't regret this,
13:32Mr. Harrington.
13:32Arthur nodded.
13:33Then his eyes landed on me.
13:37As for this quag...
13:39He didn't finish the sentence.
13:40He didn't have to.
13:41The bodyguards grabbed me.
13:44As they dragged me out,
13:45I watched Hamilton pull out
13:46his custom-made surgical kit
13:48the instruments laid out
13:48in perfect order
13:49on a sterile tray.
13:54I looked at Victoria's chart
13:55one last time.
13:56Are you insane?
13:58Victoria's anatomy is itympical.
14:00She has a congenital variation
14:01in her coronary vasculogy.
14:03If you follow the standard protocol,
14:04you'll hit an anomalous vessel
14:05and she'll hemorrhage on the table.
14:08Choose my technique now
14:10and she might have a chance.
14:12Otherwise,
14:12she's dead in 20 minutes.
14:14Arthur Harrington froze.
14:15His eyes flickered
14:16between me and Hamilton.
14:17Dr. Blake,
14:18spare us the theatricals.
14:20Every failed surgeon
14:21blames atypical anatomy.
14:22The literature doesn't support
14:23your approach.
14:24The data doesn't support
14:25your approach.
14:25You have nothing but
14:25anecdotes and arrogance.
14:27He walked into the O.R.
14:28without looking back.
14:31The bodyguards shoved me
14:33into a supply basket
14:35and locked the door.
14:36I didn't pound on it.
14:37I didn't scream.
14:38I just sat there
14:39and watched the clock tick.
14:4623 minutes later,
14:48someone started screaming
14:48in the hallway.
14:50The door in the supply closet
14:51burst open.
14:52Marcus Webb,
14:53the head of security,
14:53Dr. Blake,
14:56please,
14:57fell to his knees
14:58in front of me
14:58and grabbed my legs.
15:00Arthur Harrington
15:00pushed past him.
15:02Dr. Blake,
15:03I was wrong.
15:03I was a fool.
15:04Please, please,
15:05save my daughter.
15:06She's 22 years old.
15:07I can't watch her die.
15:10He looked up at me,
15:11tears streaming down his face.
15:15You have a daughter.
15:17You understand?
15:17I looked past him,
15:18past Marcus,
15:19down the hallway
15:19to the O.R.
15:20The doors burst open.
15:22Dr. Hamilton stumbled out.
15:23He was covered in blood
15:24from head to toe.
15:26Impossible.
15:27Impossible.
15:28She shouldn't have
15:28hemorrhaged like that.
15:29I followed the protocol.
15:31Every step.
15:32Why didn't it...
15:34Idiots.
15:35Victoria Harrington
15:36had an anomalous
15:37right coronary artery.
15:38It was right there
15:39in her scans
15:40if you knew
15:40what to look for.
15:51Hamilton had been too busy
15:53being right to look.
15:56Arthur Harrington
15:57saw Hamilton stumble out,
15:58saw the blood,
15:59and let out a noise.
15:59Please,
16:00I'll give you anything.
16:02Anything.
16:03I didn't say a word.
16:04I just stood up
16:05and walked into the O.R.
16:07The scene inside
16:08made me stop breathing.
16:09It didn't look like a surgery.
16:11It looked like a murder scene.
16:13She had almost no blood
16:14left in her body.
16:16You absolute moron!
16:20I kicked Hamilton
16:21out of the O.R.
16:24Sent him stumbling
16:25into the hallway.
16:26Then I got to work.
16:27I had to improvise.
16:29I grabbed the basic kit
16:30they had,
16:30not what I would have chosen,
16:31but enough.
16:32And I started cutting.
16:33Not the way Hamilton cut.
16:35Not the way the textbook
16:36said to cut.
16:37The way I'd spent
16:38ten years learning.
16:39Small incisions,
16:40precise angles.
16:42Following the anatomy,
16:43not biting it.
16:44Avoiding the main vessels,
16:45working through the gaps.
16:46Sweat dripped off my face
16:47onto Victoria's skin.
16:49The situation was
16:50a hundred times worse
16:51than it should have been.
16:52The anomalous vessel
16:53was shredded
16:54and the heart was struggling.
16:55I kept working.
16:56One suture at a time,
16:57one vessel at a time,
16:58for forty minutes,
16:59then sixty.
17:01My legs gave out
17:02and I hit the floor.
17:04The Harrington's people
17:05flooded into the O.R.
17:06Marcus grabbed me
17:07with a dollar.
17:08What about my daughter?
17:10And hauled me
17:10halfway off the ground.
17:12She's alive.
17:13Arthur Harrington's face
17:14started to lift.
17:16But?
17:16The word landed like a gunshot.
17:18She lost too much blood,
17:19too many organs
17:20went without oxygen,
17:21and Hamilton's
17:22surgical errors.
17:23Without my medication,
17:24she'll never wake up.
17:26The room went silent.
17:29What do you mean,
17:31never wake up?
17:38Arthur Harrington's face twisted,
17:39the hope in his eyes
17:40curdled into something else.
17:49I paid you $200,000
17:51to save my daughter
17:52and you turned her
17:52into a vengeful!
17:54You did this on purpose.
17:56You're getting revenge
17:57because of what happened
17:58on that plane.
17:59If it weren't for me,
18:00your daughter would already
18:01be in a body bag.
18:04If you hadn't stalled
18:05and schemed
18:06and played games,
18:07I never would have trusted
18:07Hamilton in the first place.
18:09This is your fault.
18:11And I'm gonna make sure
18:12you watch your whole family
18:13die because of it.
18:14You're dead, Blake!
18:15Do you hear me?
18:16Dead!
18:17Where is his kid?
18:19Break your legs!
18:20I want him to know
18:21what this feels like!
18:24I told you not to trust Hamilton!
18:26I told you!
18:26And you made that choice!
18:28Not me!
18:29Daddy!
18:29Daddy, help!
18:39I want him to spend
18:40the rest of his miserable life
18:41eating out at dumpsters.
18:43And then,
18:43when he's got nothing left,
18:46he can join my daughter in hell.
18:49I don't know how long I was out.
18:50When I woke up,
18:52Lily's crying brought me back.
18:53Her face was covered in blood.
18:55Not hers.
18:55My.
18:58I got to my feet,
18:59picked her up,
19:00walked out of that hospital,
19:01and didn't look back.
19:02The Harringtons moved fast.
19:04At 3 a.m.,
19:04the hashtag started trending.
19:06Hashtag,
19:08DrBlakeScamUnlicensedSurgery,
19:08$100,000 fees,
19:10patient brain dead.
19:11The bots flooded
19:12every comment section.
19:13This is why people hate doctors.
19:14Greedy, arrogant,
19:15murderers.
19:16Pay cash is innovative...
19:17My parents,
19:18living in a small town
19:18three hours away,
19:19got egged going to the grocery store.
19:23Marcus called me just to gloat.
19:25Dr. Blake,
19:26this is what happens
19:26when you cross the Harringsons.
19:28And we're just getting
19:29started.
19:30Tell your mom to pick out
19:31a nice plot for you.
19:32You're going to need it.
19:33Did they really think
19:34I hadn't prepared for this?
19:36I logged into my Twitter account,
19:37the notifications were crashed,
19:38the app was barely functional,
19:39and I started posting.
19:40The recording from the plane,
19:42the airport security footage,
19:43the OR records
19:44showing Hamilton's error,
19:45and the recording
19:46of Arthur Harrington
19:46threatening to kill my family.
19:48The internet broke.
19:50The second the evidence went live,
19:52the entire country
19:53lost its mind.
19:54Within an hour,
19:55the airline was drowning
19:56in refund requests.
19:57Their cash flow froze.
19:58Stock price?
19:59Free fall.
19:59A billion dollars
20:00in market cap, gone.
20:01The airline tried to stay quiet,
20:03then they panic-fired
20:03the flight attendant
20:04and his father,
20:05a vice president.
20:06I want to sincerely apologize
20:08to Dr. Blake,
20:09to the passengers,
20:11to everyone I hurt.
20:12They dug up everything.
20:14Workplace harassment,
20:15passenger complaints,
20:15records of him
20:16threatening co-workers.
20:18The Harringtons?
20:19Their products got pulled
20:20from every major retailer.
20:22Customer boycotts
20:23spread like wildfire.
20:24A billion-dollar
20:25pharmaceutical empire,
20:26gone,
20:26in less than 60 minutes.
20:28And then,
20:28a twist no one saw coming.
20:29A billion-dollar empire,
20:30gone in 60 minutes.
20:34The Journal of the
20:35American Medical Association
20:36tweeted,
20:37not a statement,
20:38a retraction of
20:39their previous position,
20:40then Johns Hopkins tweeted,
20:41we are pleased to announce
20:42that Dr. Blake has accepted
20:43a position as director
20:44of Innovative Cardiac Surgery
20:45at Johns Hopkins Hospital.
20:47He will begin next month.
20:49My DMs went from
20:50death threats to apologies.
20:51Then my phone rang.
20:53It was my father's number.
20:54Dr. Blake,
20:55I'll admit,
20:56you're clever,
20:57hiding your family like that.
20:59Don't listen to him, son!
21:00But I told you,
21:02the Harringtons find everything.
21:04Call the police, baby!
21:06Dr. Blake,
21:07I know about the compound,
21:09the one your family developed,
21:11the one the Harringtons
21:12were trying to reverse engineer
21:13before all this started.
21:14Give it to us.
21:15Give it to Victoria,
21:17and the Harringtons
21:18will let your family live.
21:19One hour.
21:20If I don't have
21:21that compound in my hand,
21:23I'll send you a video of
21:25your parents
21:26and your daughter
21:27saying goodbye.
21:28Permanently.
21:29I almost laughed.
21:30They had no idea
21:31what they were asking for.
21:32See you later.
21:33Extraordinary
