00:00Everyone in the cardiac surgical department, you're all fired.
00:03Oh, I am serious.
00:16New Amsterdam Hospital.
00:20This hospital is a city unto itself.
00:22We performed the world's first C-section in the world's first maternity ward.
00:26I know the history.
00:27The dean makes me tell it to every new medical director.
00:30And how many of those have you worked with?
00:32Five. In five years.
00:34Will everyone in the cardiac surgical department please raise your hands?
00:38Great. Great. Thank you. You're all fired.
00:43Any department who places billing above care, you will be terminated.
00:49So, how can I help?
00:53You know, we all feel like the system is too big to change.
00:57We'll call you when we have a doctor available. Okay, hon?
01:01But we are the system. And we need to change. Let's be doctors. Again.
01:08Going somewhere?
01:09I have to take segments with the morning show.
01:11I actually expect you to practice medicine because it's your job.
01:15You're funny.
01:16We have a patient presenting all the signs of malaria, TB, or...
01:20Ebola.
01:23I need you to do a throat biopsy. Just take a second.
01:26Sure. For what patient?
01:27Uh, me.
01:31This girl has been abused three times in the foster care system.
01:35If you can't help Gemma as a doctor, then just help her as a human being.
01:38Am I allowed to do that?
01:40You are now.
01:43Why did you perform half as many procedures as your colleagues?
01:46Because there's other ways to help people than by cutting them open.
01:49Run the cardiac surgical department.
01:51There is no cardiac surgical department.
01:53Then build one.
01:58Helmet, now!
02:00Forget it.
02:02I'm going in.
02:03Dr. Bloom, wait!
02:07Gemma, what do you want to happen?
02:11Nobody's ever...
02:12asked me that before.
02:17Working here, being able to save someone else's sister...
02:22or someone's daughter...
02:26is the dream come true.
02:28They're not going to let you come in here and just...
02:31help people.
02:33So let's help as many as we can before they figure us out.
02:38You need to slow down.
02:40You have cancer.
02:44But you knew that, didn't you?
02:47How can I help?
