Short filmTranscript
00:00We're losing him!
00:02Next.
00:02Where is the doctor?
00:04They had three hours.
00:05They didn't.
00:06Where is Dr. Sloan?
00:09Excuse me, this flight is overbooked.
00:11$200, please deplane immediately.
00:13You're gonna regret this.
00:17Excuse me, this flight is overbooked.
00:19Here's $200 for the inconvenience.
00:21Please deplane immediately.
00:23The lead flight attendant had both hands locked around my carry-on.
00:26I didn't move.
00:27My eyes went past her to the man being ushered onto the plane.
00:3015 minutes late.
00:31Expensive suit.
00:32For bodyguards in tow.
00:34The whole presence of someone whose money arrived before he did.
00:37He missed the boarding cutoff by 15 minutes.
00:39I have a full price confirmed ticket.
00:40Explain to me how that math works.
00:42She lowered her voice.
00:43That's Mr. Connor Ashwield.
00:45His family owns the largest private medical group on the East Coast.
00:48He's flying to New York for surgery.
00:50Do you really want to be the one who delayed this flight?
00:53She let the name land.
00:54Two airport security officers closed in on either side of me, solid as a wall.
00:58As they walked me toward the gate, I took one last look at the flight attendant.
01:02She'd already turned away.
01:03Already moved on.
01:04She had no idea.
01:05I was the specialist the Ashworth family had spent three months and a fortune tracking down.
01:10This morning, I was supposed to perform that surgery.
01:12Now they'd put me off the plane.
01:14Mr. Connor Ashworth had just run out of options.
01:18I dragged my suitcase to the ticketing counter, one step at a time.
01:22Refund.
01:23I slapped my ID on the counter.
01:24The agent glanced at her screen, looked me up and down, and rolled her eyes.
01:28Sorry, since you chose not to board, we can only refund the fuel supports.
01:32That's $120, no full refund.
01:36Chose not to board?
01:37Your airline overbooked and physically removed a paying Kasminger.
01:41That's my personal choice?
01:43The agent hammered her keyboard, visibly annoyed.
01:45You were disrupting the cabin.
01:46Be grateful we're giving you anything at all.
01:48Then I heard heels.
01:49Sharp.
01:50Unhurried.
01:50Coming closer.
01:51The lead flight attendant walked over.
01:53Phone raised.
01:54Already recording.
01:55Look at this.
01:56Trying to squeeze money out of the airline.
01:58Unbelievable.
01:59You just want a bigger payout, don't you?
02:02Drop the act.
02:03$200 not enough for you?
02:04I'll post this online.
02:06Maybe someone will crowdfund you a little more.
02:08You're going to regret this.
02:10She laughed until her eyes watered.
02:11Regret it?
02:12You can't even afford economy, and you think you can make me regret anything?
02:16Mr. Ashfold booked out the entire first class cabin.
02:19His bodyguards are in business class.
02:21Who exactly do you think you are?
02:23She spun toward the terminal and raised her voice.
02:26Everyone, take a look.
02:27This woman got bumped on an overbooked flight and now she's trying to extort the airline.
02:32She's been at the counter causing a scene, holding up everyone's day.
02:36Nearby passengers drifted over.
02:37Dressed like that and acting like this?
02:39No class.
02:40The airline already offered compensation and she's still going.
02:43Greedy.
02:44Just leave.
02:44You're embarrassing yourself.
02:46I ignored them and turned back to the agent.
02:48Fine.
02:49Refund.
02:50But I need it documented in writing that this refund is the result of the airline overbooking
02:55and forcibly removing a confirmed passenger.
02:58I wasn't going to let the Ashworth family think I'd walked away on my own.
03:01That wasn't a burden I was carrying for anyone.
03:05She slammed her hand on the counter.
03:07In your dreams.
03:08We offered you a solution and you refused it.
03:11Now you want to put this on us?
03:14Security!
03:15Get this woman out of here!
03:17Several officers rushed over and grabbed my arms.
03:20Let go of me.
03:21I fought back.
03:21But they didn't slow down, dragging me straight toward the exit.
03:24As we passed the flight attendant, I stopped fighting long enough to look at her.
03:28Remember my face?
03:29Remember every word you just said?
03:32You'll be begging me before this is over.
03:35She wasn't scared.
03:36Instead she kicked my suitcase over.
03:38The damaged case split open completely.
03:40Clothes and a sealed medication container scattered across the floor.
03:44She brought her heel down on the container.
03:46It shattered.
03:46The compound inside.
03:47Powder now.
03:48No.
03:49That was the custom medication I had made specifically for Connor Ashworth.
03:52The only supply in existence.
03:54Without it, he wouldn't survive the post-operative recovery.
03:57Oops.
03:58So sorry about that.
03:59She said.
04:00Phones were everywhere now.
04:01Laughter from all directions.
04:02I was shoved out through the terminal doors and hit the concrete hard.
04:05She threw my suitcase out after me like it was trash.
04:08Take your junk and go.
04:10Cause any more trouble and we'll have you arrested for disturbing the peace.
04:15Then my phone went off.
04:17I answered.
04:17The voice on the other end came in fast and loud.
04:20What is wrong with you?
04:21The plane took off.
04:22I checked the manifest.
04:23Your name isn't on it.
04:25The Ashworth family's estate manager.
04:27Contempt baked into every word.
04:28We went to considerable lengths to bring you on.
04:30Transfer the retainer.
04:31And you pull this at the last meccan?
04:33Who do you think you are making the Ashtrels wait?
04:35The only reason you're involved at all is because of your surgical record.
04:38Don't flatter yourself.
04:39The airline.
04:40I'm warning you.
04:41Connor's condition cannot wait.
04:42If you are not in that operating room before tonight there will be consequences.
04:46You take the Ashworth family's money and don't deliver.
04:48I will make sure every oversight board in this country has your name.
04:51The line went dead.
04:55I was still seething.
04:56I called him back.
04:57He picked up immediately.
04:58Already impatient.
05:00What else is there to say?
05:02Figure out a charter flight and get here.
05:05I won't be flying anywhere.
05:06If you want to know why I wasn't on that plane?
05:08Ask the lead flight attendant on Mr. Ashworth's flight.
05:10What's that supposed to mean?
05:12Exactly what I said.
05:13I hung up.
05:14Opened my banking app.
05:15Found the $3 million retainer the Ashworth family had wired over.
05:18Send it back in full.
05:20Four words in the memo.
05:21Find another doctor.
05:22$3 million.
05:23To them it was a number.
05:24To me, it wasn't close to worth what today had cost me.
05:27I blocked every Ashworth contact in my phone and didn't look back.
05:30I looked down at the powder still scattered across the pavement.
05:33Connor Ashworth was on his own.
05:35I flagged a cab and went straight to the hospital.
05:37I barely sat down in my office when my phone started going off again.
05:40I answered.
05:41The chief of medicine was already shouting.
05:43Sloney, what the hell is going on?
05:45The Ashworth family just called me directly.
05:47They're saying you started a fight at the airport and tried to assault Mr. Ashworth.
05:50The flight attendant had to have you removed to protect them and now you've sent back their
05:53retainer?
05:54What is wrong with you?
05:55I went still for a moment.
05:56Then I laughed.
05:57The flight attendant had nerve.
05:58I'd give her that.
05:59Blame the whole thing on me to cover an overbooking.
06:02And the Ashworth swallowed it without a single question.
06:04The Ashworth patriarch has spoken.
06:06You go to New York.
06:06You apologize to Mr. Ashworth in person and you perform that surgery.
06:09Today.
06:10If you refuse I'm firing you.
06:13I stopped listening.
06:14Pulled out a sheet of paper and wrote my resignation in under a minute.
06:18Walked upstairs and pushed open his office door.
06:20He was still on the phone.
06:21He looked up.
06:22Startled.
06:22I dropped the letter on his desk.
06:24Don't bother firing me.
06:25I quit.
06:27Are you out of your mind?
06:28You think resigning gets you out of this?
06:30I put both hands on the desk and looked down at him.
06:32I'm exhausted.
06:34I'm taking a long break.
06:36Somewhere else.
06:37As for my medical license.
06:38If the Ashems want to come after it.
06:40Let them try.
06:40If they want to blacklist me.
06:42Let them.
06:42I turned and walked out.
06:43Stop right there.
06:44Get back here.
06:45He was still shouting when I cleared the door.
06:47I didn't turn around.
06:48I did the math as I walked.
06:50Connor Ashworth's condition had been held in check by my compound alone.
06:53The compound was gone.
06:54Without it.
06:55Connor Ashworth's condition would deteriorate quickly at altitude.
06:58I didn't know how long he had.
06:59I could only hope someone up there would realize what was happening in time.
07:02I got home.
07:04Dropped my bag in the hall.
07:05And stood in the middle of my apartment for a moment.
07:07The quiet felt strange.
07:08No pager.
07:09No chief of medicine.
07:10No Ashworth's.
07:11I pulled the curtains shut and reached for the lamp.
07:13My phone lit up.
07:14Not a number I recognized.
07:16Not exactly.
07:17It was routed through 3 different relays and came in on a frequency I'd set to silent 8 months ago.
07:22After the last time I'd needed it.
07:23I'd forgotten I left it active.
07:25I picked up.
07:26One voice.
07:27That was all it took.
07:288 months and I still placed it in under a second.
07:32Eric Vance.
07:33I'd spent 6 days in a private facility outside Vancouver keeping that man alive.
07:37No staff.
07:38No records.
07:39His people had found me through a contact I'd long since stopped returning calls from.
07:43And the terms were simple.
07:44Come now.
07:45Tell no one.
07:46Leave no trace.
07:47I'd pulled him back from the edge with needles, compounds, and 36 hours without sleep.
07:51When I left.
07:52He was stable.
07:53I handed off a recovery protocol.
07:55Accepted nothing.
07:55And got on a plane home.
07:57I hadn't heard from him since.
07:58That was the arrangement.
07:59He said.
08:00I hope I haven't caught you at a bad time.
08:02I just resigned.
08:04So no.
08:05Not particularly.
08:06A pause.
08:07Not surprise.
08:08He wasn't the type.
08:09More like the silence of someone setting something aside to address later.
08:12Then I'll be direct.
08:13I'd like to offer you a position.
08:15Chief Medical Advisor to Vance Group.
08:17Full autonomy over your practice, your caseload, your methods.
08:19The terms are yours to set.
08:21Your recovery is complete.
08:22You don't need a medical advisor.
08:24You need a competent GP and an annual cardiac panel.
08:26I can recommend three names.
08:28I'm not calling about my health.
08:29Then what are you calling about?
08:30The Ashworths.
08:33I didn't answer right away.
08:35Outside, a car alarm went off two blocks over and then stopped.
08:38How much do you know?
08:39Enough.
08:40Airport this morning.
08:41The medication.
08:42The terminal recording.
08:43A brief pause.
08:44The retainer you sent back.
08:45Three million dollars returned in under an hour.
08:47I suppose that was the kind of thing that got noticed in certain circles.
08:51If you're offering to handle the Ashfields, the answer is no.
08:54I'm not offering that.
08:56Then what are you offering?
08:58Infrastructure.
08:59If you have evidence and you needed to travel faster than the Ashworths can suppress it,
09:03I can help with that.
09:04You run your play.
09:06I just make sure the board doesn't tilt against you before you're ready.
09:08I thought about that.
09:10I had a paper trail and a video that the airline would spend considerable resources trying to bury.
09:14What do you get out of it?
09:16I owe you a debt.
09:19That bothers me.
09:20Honest.
09:21I'd give him that.
09:22You don't owe me anything.
09:24We settled that in Vancouver.
09:25You declined payment.
09:27That's not the same as settled.
09:28I didn't have a clean answer to that.
09:30And the position.
09:32You're serious about that?
09:33Completely.
09:34The offer stands whenever you want it.
09:36No expiration.
09:36I looked at the curtains.
09:38Outside.
09:38The city was doing what cities do.
09:40The same as yesterday.
09:41The same as it would tomorrow.
09:43With or without me and my license and whatever was left of my name by morning.
09:46I don't need help with the Ashworths.
09:48I know.
09:49Good night Dr. Sloan.
09:50The line went dead.
09:53I set the phone face down on the nightstand and lay back on top of the covers, still in my
09:58coat.
09:58I didn't need help.
09:59That was true.
10:00What I had was enough.
10:01Terminal footage.
10:02Drug records.
10:03A resignation that cost them nothing but would cost them everything once it was public.
10:07I knew how to build a case.
10:09I knew how to wait.
10:10I turned off the lamp and went to sleep.
10:12First thing the next morning, I switched my phone back on.
10:14Missed calls from the Ashworth family, wall to wall.
10:17Then an unknown local number came through.
10:19I answered.
10:20A familiar voice.
10:21Dr. Sloan, please.
10:22You have to come back to the airport.
10:23Mr. Ashworth collapsed on the plane.
10:25He's coughing up blood.
10:26The airline has authorized a complimentary business class seat on the next flight to New York.
10:31Complimentary business class.
10:33Weren't you the one calling me trash and saying I deserve to get thrown off?
10:36Shut up and listen.
10:37Her tone hadn't changed at all.
10:39Even now.
10:39The Ashworth family is putting pressure on the airline.
10:42If I lose my job over you, you'll regret it.
10:44Get over here.
10:45Now.
10:46I hung up and blocked the number.
10:50Less than half an hour later, someone started pounding on my door.
10:53Three hard knocks.
10:54Then the smell hit.
10:55Sharp.
10:56Chemical.
10:56Sloan.
10:57You useless hack.
10:58Get out here.
10:59I pulled the door open.
11:00A bucket of red paint had been thrown across the security door.
11:03It was dripping through the frame.
11:05The flight attendant was standing in the hallway with several airline security officers behind her.
11:10The corridor was already full of neighbors peering out, talking among themselves.
11:13I always thought she seemed decent.
11:15Turns out she's been taking patients' money and doing nothing.
11:18Something like this doesn't happen to innocent people.
11:21Everyone, take a good look.
11:23This is the doctor who took a dying patient's money and deliberately stalled until he ended up in critical condition.
11:29Now she's hiding in her apartment.
11:30This woman belongs in handcuffs.
11:32You think hiding helps?
11:34You're going to New York today if I have to drag you there myself.
11:38She was cornered, the Ashworths had clearly come down on her hard, and she'd decided I was her way out.
11:43I was reaching for my phone to call the police when I heard heavy footsteps on the stairs.
11:47Several men in black pushed through the crowd of neighbors without a word.
11:50The Ashworth family's estate manager came up the last few steps and looked at me from the landing.
11:54I found her, just like I said I would. Mr. Ashworth's treatment won't be delayed.
11:59He didn't look at her.
12:00He walked straight up to me and held out a check between two fingers.
12:03Six million. Double the original fee. Come with me now, and the Ashworths will consider the matter closed.
12:10I didn't look at the check.
12:11Not interested.
12:14His expression shifted. The civility dropped.
12:16You think you're in a position to turn this down?
12:18He leaned in slightly.
12:19If you won't come willingly, I'll have you carried to that operating table.
12:22And if you won't operate willingly, the Ashworth family will pursue every legal avenue available.
12:27Your mother is currently at Kanan Care Home, isn't she?
12:29Something went cold in my chest.
12:31Touch her and see what happens.
12:33We'll do whatever it takes to save Mr. Ashworth.
12:37I'd suggest you start packing. Right now.
12:41Otherwise, I will ensure the care home receives a full account of today's events and lets her family handle the
12:47rest.
12:47The bodyguard stepped forward and pinned my arms.
12:50The flight attendant laughed from somewhere behind them.
12:53Still playing hard to get with the Ashworth family?
12:55You really don't know when you're beaten?
12:57I looked at all of them.
12:58And then I laughed.
12:59The estate manager's eyes narrowed.
13:01What's funny?
13:02I turned to the flight attendant.
13:03How stupid you all are.
13:05You think I don't want to save Connor Ashworth?
13:08Even if I walked into that OR right now, he wouldn't make it.
13:11What did you just say?
13:15The manager grabbed the front of my jacket.
13:17Ask her.
13:19Yesterday at the airport, she broke my bag open.
13:21Then crushed the medication I had compounded specifically for Connor Ashworth.
13:25Without that compound stabilizing his cardiac function, he won't survive the anesthesia, let alone the surgery.
13:29The flight attendant's smile disappeared.
13:31That is a lie!
13:32You dropped your own things!
13:34Don't you dare pin this on me!
13:36Sir, don't listen to her!
13:37She's making this up!
13:38I watched her panic and felt nothing but tired.
13:41The terminal cameras recorded everything.
13:43Check the footage yourself.
13:44The estate manager stared at me, weighing it.
13:47Then he exhaled sharply.
13:48Stop stalling.
13:49The Ashworth family can source any medication in the world.
13:51We'll have someone prepare another batch.
13:52Now, let's go!
13:54He signaled, and two bodyguards lifted me off the ground and put me in the back of a black SUV
13:59parked downstairs.
14:00A few hours later, I was standing outside the ICU at New York General.
14:04Through the glass, Connor Ashworth was buried under tubes and wires.
14:07The monitors were screaming.
14:09Heart rate still dropping.
14:11Blood pressure is barely readable.
14:12The doctor is here.
14:13Sloan.
14:14The estate manager pushed through the group and pulled me to the front.
14:18At the end of the corridor, an old man was walking toward us.
14:21Fill in whatever number you want.
14:23Bring my grandson back.
14:25And the Ashworth family will make it worth your while.
14:28But if you fail...
14:29His voice went flat and cold.
14:30I suggest you think carefully about the people who depend on you.
14:35I pressed my nails into my palm.
14:37Quite an entrance, Mr. Ashworth.
14:39I looked at him and left the check where it was.
14:41But no amount of money buys your grandson another day.
14:44Not anymore.
14:45He slammed his cane against the floor.
14:47How dare you!
14:48You dare say that about my grandson?!
14:50Get her into that operating room!
14:52She will pick up that scalpel today!
14:54The bodyguards closed in.
14:56I didn't move.
14:56I tip out my phone.
14:58Opened a video.
14:58And held the screen up in front of him.
15:00I pressed play.
15:01The footage showed the flight attendant.
15:03Yesterday.
15:03Grinding the medication container under her heel.
15:06That compound doesn't exist anywhere else in the world.
15:09Without it protecting his cardiac function there is nothing anyone can do.
15:13Not me.
15:14Not anyone.
15:15The old man turned slowly and looked at the flight attendant.
15:18Who had backed herself into a corner.
15:20Her legs buckled.
15:21She went down on her knees.
15:22Please, let me explain.
15:24The slap landed hard across her face.
15:26Her cheek swelled instantly.
15:28Blood at the corner of her mouth.
15:29She pressed both hands to her face.
15:31Shaking.
15:32It wasn't me.
15:33It was her.
15:34She's lying.
15:35She's the one who did this.
15:36She pointed at me.
15:37Trying to push the whole thing onto me.
15:39The old man's hand was trembling as he pointed back at her.
15:43The flight attendant scrambled to her feet and grabbed the arm of a doctor standing nearby.
15:48This is Dr. Smith.
15:49The finest surgeon.
15:50There is nothing he can't treat.
15:52This woman showed up with a bag of herbs and called herself a specialist.
15:56She's been conning your family from the start.
15:58Dr. Smith straightened his sleeve where she'd grabbed it and looked at the old man.
16:01Sir, I don't understand why you two trust a fraud over modern medicine.
16:05He turned to me with open contempt.
16:07Hand Mr. Ashfield over to my team.
16:08We have the technology and the drugs.
16:10I will walk him out of that operating room.
16:12The old man rose slowly.
16:13His eyes moved between me and Smith.
16:15The compound was gone.
16:16And a doctor with no medicine was still just a doctor with no medicine.
16:19The calculation took about two seconds.
16:22His face changed.
16:24Dr. Smith, my grandson is in your hands.
16:28Schedule the surgery immediately.
16:29He turned to the estate manager, voice stripped of everything but cold command.
16:33Lock her in the break room.
16:34Post someone outside.
16:37If my grandson comes through, we'll call it even.
16:40If anything goes wrong, she answers for it with her life.
16:43Two bodyguards grabbed my arms and wrenched them behind my back.
16:46I fought against them and looked straight at the old man.
16:49This is false imprisonment.
16:50The estate manager stepped forward and patted my cheek, almost lazily.
16:54Dr. Sloan, don't be naive.
16:57This is Ashfield territory.
16:59Our rules.
17:00As they dragged me away, I raised my voice.
17:02Give me my needles!
17:03I can still seal the bleed right now!
17:05And Connor Ashworld still has a chance!
17:09Let Smith operate and he's dead!
17:11I'm telling you, he's dead!
17:13Still talking?
17:15Dr. Smith is world class.
17:16Mr. Ashworth is going to be fine.
17:19Gagger, get her out of my sight.
17:23They locked me in a windowless break room.
17:25The minutes went by.
17:26Three hours later, a screen cut through the corridor outside.
17:29Dr. Smith was standing at the door.
17:31Surgical gowns soaked through with blood and wide sprays across the front.
17:35Both hands were shaking badly.
17:36His words came out in broken fragments.
17:38Mr. Ashford's vessels.
17:40Extremely fragile.
17:42Massive hemorrhage at the start of surgery.
17:43We couldn't control it.
17:44I'm sorry.
17:45We did everything we could.
17:47You should begin making arrangements.
17:49My grandson!
17:51The estate manager came scrambling into the break room and threw himself at my feet.
17:55Dr. Sloan, please.
17:56Mr. Ashfield is dying.
17:58The bleeding won't stop.
17:59Please!
18:00Snot and tears running down his face.
18:02Nothing left of the man who'd threatened my mother three hours ago.
18:05Didn't you call me a fraud?
18:06Weren't you gonna have me pay with my life?
18:10You had your chance.
18:12I'm done here.
18:13He pressed his forehead to the floor.
18:15It hit the tiles hard enough to split the skin.
18:17Blood ran down.
18:18Outside in the corridor, the old man pushed his bodyguards away and crawled to the doorway.
18:22For the family's only heir, this man, who had never bent for anything, put both knees on the floor in
18:28front of everyone present.
18:29Dr. Sloan, I was wrong.
18:32I was a fool.
18:33Please, save my grandson!
18:36His forehead hit the floor.
18:37I looked at the two of them and stood up.
18:39Another minute and Connor Ashworth would actually be gone.
18:42I walked straight to the operating room.
18:45Connor Ashworth was on the table, chest fully open, blood well past the pericardium.
18:50The monitor showed a flat line.
18:52The idiot.
18:53I glanced at the medication record on the way in.
18:55My stomach dropped, to force the bleeding to stop.
18:58Smith had administered thrombin at several times the indicated dose.
19:01Connor Ashworth's vascular system was already critically compromised.
19:05A hit like that would cause systemic microvascular thrombosis throughout the body.
19:09Multi-organ failure.
19:11Far worse than I'd expected.
19:12Far worse than it should ever have been.
19:14They had taken a man who still had a chance and killed him themselves.
19:18I shoved Smith aside and grabbed the cloth roll from the nurse's tray.
19:21The needles caught the light from the surgical lamp.
19:23Thin, cold, precise.
19:25I went to work.
19:25The flat line on the monitor began to move.
19:28The long steady tone broke into a faint, irregular beat.
19:31I pulled the last needle free and dropped the bloody gloves in the waist bin.
19:34When I pushed through the doors, the Ashworth family closed him from all sides.
19:38Dr. Sloan, my grandson?
19:42He's alive.
19:46But his brain was without oxygen too long.
19:49Combined with the systemic thrombosis, there's extensive neurological damage.
19:53Without the compound to repair the nerve tissue, he will spend the rest of his life in a vegetative state.
20:00Vegetatorial state.
20:02I paid a fortune to bring you here and this is what you give me?
20:05You did this deliberately.
20:07You wanted revenge.
20:08You've destroyed my family's bloodline and I will have you killed for it!
20:11The estate manager stepped forward, jaw tight.
20:14You had the ability to save him and you stalled.
20:17You did this on purpose.
20:19You are not leaving this city alive unless Mr. Ashworth walks out of here.
20:23I looked at the two of them and almost laughed.
20:25Without me, he'd be in the morgue right now.
20:28Your people trusted a doctor who overdosed him on Throgen?
20:31That's on you.
20:32And now you want to blame me for it?
20:34Not a chance.
20:35I turned and walked away.
20:37Blacklist her!
20:37I want her finished!
20:39Everywhere in this country, done!
20:42Behind me the old man's voice rose into something ragged and uncontrolled.
20:46The Ashworth family moved fast.
20:47Within two hours, my name was everywhere online.
20:50Every platform.
20:51All of it bad.
20:52The comments came in waves.
20:53Lock her up.
20:54She has no business practicing medicine.
20:56The airline was right to throw her off.
20:58People like her don't deserve to board.
21:00She deliberately withheld medication to extort the family.
21:03Disgusting.
21:04Then the chief of medicine appeared on camera.
21:06Dr. Sloan was a problem long before this.
21:09Arrogant.
21:09No medical ethics to speak of.
21:11I tried repeatedly to counsel her.
21:12She ignored me.
21:14She withheld it life-saving medication from a patient to use as leverage against the family.
21:17The story peaked within the hour.
21:19People were calling for my address.
21:20Some were threatening to come to my home.
21:22The estate manager called.
21:24You put Mr. Ashworth in a vegetative state, Sloan.
21:27You had it coming.
21:28I hung up.
21:29Go ahead.
21:30The higher they climb, the worse the fall.
21:32I opened my laptop.
21:33Airport security footage.
21:35Complete and uncut.
21:36Smith's medication records.
21:37The estate managers reported threats against my mother.
21:40I packaged everything and submitted it to the National Medical Oversight Authority.
21:44Then I logged into my personal account, wrote one post, and hit send.
