FunTranscript
00:00Previously on Shortland Street.
00:02You were brilliant in there.
00:03You were so bad yourself.
00:04I think he's seeing another life path.
00:06What are you saying?
00:07You should be with Sawyer.
00:08Do you want me to discharge him or are you going to?
00:10He agreed to stay.
00:11You embarrassed me.
00:12You ask for my help.
00:14Can I give it to you?
00:15You take it.
00:16Understood.
00:17Yeah, sure.
00:22Rami, Lockton Syndrome, which is what we believe you might be experiencing.
00:27It can happen after a stroke, and we think you may have had one during the operation,
00:31but it's not showing up on the imaging.
00:33How do you fix it?
00:35How long will he be like this?
00:37Some people can regain minor motor function over time, but...
00:42We'll investigate, and we'll identify exactly what went wrong,
00:46then we'll be able to say more.
00:48I know you're panicking right now, and there's nothing I can do to change this.
00:53But these guys are going to do everything they can, okay?
00:58I'll be back in the morning, hopefully with some answers.
01:01Selina will be here through the night.
01:03Anything you need, Rami.
01:06Gia?
01:08I'm just going to stay for a bit.
01:17Same as Lily Grace.
01:19So many of them.
01:20Have you heard back from Central yet?
01:21Uh, no, not yet.
01:23I'm still waiting to hear back from St. Cath's.
01:25At least it's a straightforward treatment.
01:27Yeah.
01:28So what, did they eat the same thing, go to the same kindy?
01:32Not the same kindy.
01:34But there must be some link.
01:35He's probably staring us right in the face.
01:39This is kind of your thing, isn't it, medical mystery, Marty?
01:42No one has ever called me that.
01:44Yeah, but you want them to.
01:45Hopefully, that is a lead.
01:50You all right?
01:52Yeah.
01:53Yeah?
01:55Yeah, how's Otto?
01:56Is the Anthom Intex working?
01:58Yeah, we're just waiting for him to rehydrate some more.
02:00Of course.
02:02You okay, mate?
02:04Fine.
02:04Um, I'm just concerned about these cases.
02:08You know, we need to find the link.
02:09Yeah, I know, we're on it.
02:10But look, if there's something else going on that you want to talk about.
02:15Big day?
02:16You're clocking off now?
02:17I need to check on Otto.
02:18He's fine.
02:19He's with his mum, anyway.
02:20Well, probably a good idea to get early night.
02:22You know, if you want to catch the worm.
02:25You really think what's happening to these kids is something to be joking about?
02:29I'm sorry, I was just...
02:34Uh, what do you want on your pizza?
02:38Where are you going to order from?
02:40Oh, I thought Ronnie's.
02:43No, they take ages, and they're so overpriced.
02:45I'll do it.
02:49I think Cleo and Logan might be in.
02:52Well, they can sort themselves.
02:55Hey.
02:56Hey.
02:57Hiya.
02:59Are you in for dinner?
03:03Uh, we're sorted.
03:05Drink?
03:06Please.
03:07Yo, you seen the latest Fast and Furious?
03:14Not my vibe.
03:16Are you okay?
03:18Yep.
03:20Babe, uh, what do you want to watch?
03:24Have you seen this one?
03:25Yeah, looks good.
03:29Sit here.
03:31This.
03:33Sort of this guy.
03:35That's the one, um...
03:38I was talking about.
03:45Good morning.
03:47Is it?
03:48You okay?
03:49Did you talk to him?
03:50Please don't be nice to me, or give me any kind of encouragement to run back to him and tell him I was wrong.
03:54I am right on the edge.
03:56Well, it does kind of feel like maybe you rushed into it a bit.
03:58I told you not to make this any harder than it already is.
04:01Sorry.
04:02I mean, like you're any better.
04:03You sent Madonna free to the Philippines.
04:06Uh, I had no choice.
04:07It seems like we do.
04:08You?
04:09Thanks.
04:09You mean me?
04:10Hey.
04:11Hey, we missed you last night.
04:13You know, I've got a feeling that everything's going to work out for you.
04:16What do you mean?
04:17Mrs.
04:18Oh.
04:19In what world is it for you?
04:21I'm just keeping things moving.
04:22If people really want to save the court, pulling the vote forward won't make a difference.
04:25This is not the way to do things.
04:27Well, that's the way it's happening.
04:28So, five o'clock.
04:30Tread carefully, Martin.
04:34What?
04:35What's happening?
04:36Hmm.
04:37And as I'll just make up my own rules, just a bit.
04:39We have till the end of the day to convince everyone to keep hold of their shares.
04:43Okay, you talk to surgical, although I think they'll be fine.
04:45I'll line up a meeting with the nurses.
04:47I'll get Maureen to pull some figures first, and if you could...
04:49Ah, sorry.
04:50Thanks, Marty.
04:51This is, um, Eden.
04:52She was on her way in and not myself.
04:53Oh, my stomach.
04:54Okay, I'll get it straight to E.D.
04:55Thanks, Maith.
04:56All right, we'll catch up soon, yeah?
04:57Um, yeah, I'd like to have you on board.
05:01He's helping a patient.
05:03Yep, yep, he's amazing.
05:06I'll talk to surgical.
05:10Of course I'll go up to keep it.
05:12I mean, that sounds good, but is it actually working out?
05:14I can practice.
05:15The dividend the other week was the first one, right?
05:17Oh, did you refer them to the practical note?
05:19Oh, I'll put it in.
05:21Looks good.
05:23Um, and yeah, it was the first.
05:25So why the hell sell now if it's just starting to pay off?
05:27Thanks.
05:27Um, hello?
05:29I always take the beds freed up.
05:32Marty said to do a stool spec for parasites.
05:35You're thinking worms?
05:36What?
05:37Ow!
05:38Yeah.
05:38Uh, stool, bloods, and, um...
05:42And abdominal leaf rays?
05:43Yeah.
05:43Hey, you all right?
05:45Yep.
05:46All right, I'll go get the gear.
05:49All right, uh, so, any vomiting?
05:52Diarrhea?
05:54It's okay.
05:55It's not okay if it's worms.
05:57Hey, uh, you guys all good?
05:59No.
06:00We're fine.
06:00Just need a bed.
06:02Oh, that bruising doesn't look too good.
06:05Um, we'll need to get ortho.
06:07I don't think so.
06:07Bruising's to be expected.
06:09Just give us a minute.
06:14What's going on?
06:16I'm trying to help my patient.
06:17Her who needs a specialist.
06:19Look at her purple fingers.
06:22Then call him.
06:23You clearly don't want him here.
06:24It's fine.
06:25This is cold.
06:26You're a mess, Pops.
06:28Hey, you okay?
06:29No.
06:31She's not.
06:31Okay?
06:32You need to pull your maiden line.
06:33What?
06:33Hendrix.
06:34She's got all freaked out.
06:35Cleo, it's fine.
06:37It's fine.
06:38Got a cube.
06:39Oh!
06:40What?
06:41I've done it.
06:41Eden?
06:42It's not fine.
06:45Okay?
06:45You have to say something.
06:48Dr. Chen, you're leaving the paper.
06:50Please, Dr. Chen, the paper.
06:52God, you might want to get checked off yourself.
06:55I'm sorry?
06:56I just helped a patient through to ED.
06:57You look about as grim as her.
06:59Yeah, well...
07:00Did you sleep yet?
07:03Uh, locum cancelled.
07:05First I've heard.
07:07You and Maun okay?
07:08I was checking on Otto and just monitoring Sammy.
07:12You're very committed.
07:13Just doing my job.
07:16Anyway, I think our patient is another case of worms, so I'm going to follow up and see
07:19if I can find a link.
07:21That's not central, is it?
07:23My mother.
07:28Hey, you're not still getting involved in Katie's case, are you?
07:31You told me to stay away, so I'm staying away.
07:33Well, Child Services contacted the department trying to get a hold of you.
07:37You don't have to tell me to back off.
07:38I've got it.
07:39Yeah, uh, Katie just went through there.
07:43Okay.
07:44Well, I just think unless you need to go that way, maybe you could keep your distance.
07:49Right.
07:51Keep your distance, Phil.
07:52That's great advice.
07:53I've got to see everything we've worked hard for slipping through our fingers.
08:00How did we even get here?
08:02I don't give up just yet.
08:04What's your right idea?
08:04How to fix it?
08:06Sorry.
08:06Right now, I, uh, need to stay focused on my patient.
08:10Of course.
08:10Rami's father are here.
08:13His son, too.
08:15I don't think they're taking it well.
08:17You'll be in shock.
08:19They didn't even know he had Parkinson's a couple of days ago.
08:22Shall I, uh...
08:23They're expecting you, yeah.
08:24I don't think there's anything you can do.
08:42I thought that there would be some change overnight.
08:45Maybe you need to take a breather.
08:50Why should I?
08:52You have patients.
08:54And he's not one of them.
08:56So I should just stop caring?
08:58No, of course not.
08:59I know that's impossible.
09:00Look, there is nothing you can say.
09:03Nothing you can do.
09:04So just don't waste your time.
09:07Don't beat yourself up, okay?
09:09Look, if you can't not be involved, then maybe think about what you're signing up for, yeah?
09:15You got any other questions?
09:20No, I don't think so.
09:22Your daughter's getting the car?
09:24Yeah.
09:26I should have told her.
09:27I shouldn't have been a stubborn old coot.
09:30I could tell you a thing or two about that.
09:33I didn't want her to worry.
09:34I thought I'd be okay.
09:39Talk to her.
09:41No matter how hard it is, it's always better to talk.
09:44Can't say.
09:45She'll come around.
09:50You reckon?
09:51Well, I'm an authority on stuffing things up with you, kid.
09:54Well, if it's not too late for me, it's definitely not too late for you.
09:58It's nice meeting you lot.
10:00You take care of Poppy and Cleo.
10:02Lovely girls.
10:03Lovely.
10:04Right.
10:06John is outside.
10:07Okay.
10:15Can I get your tissue?
10:23You can show your trap.
10:24God, Eden's riddled.
10:35Ew.
10:36Anything that's stuck out in her diet?
10:37Any recent changes?
10:39She's pretty consistent.
10:41She, um, she eats organic.
10:43She's said to look on her website.
10:46She makes and sells snacks.
10:47That's pretty much what she eats.
10:50Okay.
10:51So she sells this stuff?
10:55Yeah.
10:56Uh, it stalls locally and at preschools and schools in the area.
11:00She's going on about the council being a handbrake and wouldn't stop talking about the flooding or something.
11:06Organic, raw, local.
11:09Okay, keep her in.
11:10I think we've found our worm culprit.
11:13Hey, Hilary, it's Dr Marty Walker here.
11:17Hiya.
11:19Eden's still freaking out about the worms?
11:21You're avoiding me.
11:23No.
11:24Why?
11:24I'm not an idiot, Poppy.
11:25Get it together.
11:35Hey, you good?
11:38Do not start with me.
11:39Who says I'm going to start?
11:41You've been throwing me shitty looks.
11:43Yeah, I've noticed.
11:45Well.
11:46But what?
11:47Well, you're being a bit of a dick.
11:49It's Poppy.
11:50She's making me like this.
11:52Poppy is.
11:52She's crazy.
11:54She's hot.
11:55Cold.
11:55I have no idea where I stand with her.
11:57As far as I can see, Poppy's done nothing wrong.
12:00Yeah.
12:01Sorry.
12:02It's just...
12:03It's Cleo.
12:04Just getting in her ear.
12:05Honestly, she hates me.
12:07I think she hates seeing her friend turn into a wispy little version of herself.
12:10What are you saying?
12:12The way you're treating Poppy sucks.
12:13Okay.
12:14How would you know?
12:14I didn't want to see her before.
12:16I...
12:16I love you, Hendrix.
12:17That's a funny way of showing it.
12:19But you need to dial it back a bit.
12:20Maybe take a break.
12:21She's getting in your head.
12:22She's turned you against me.
12:23No.
12:24Why do they always do this?
12:26What?
12:26Your girlfriend's?
12:27No common denominator there.
12:29Piss off.
12:29No, actually, you piss off.
12:31Be good to her or back off.
12:34Well, Eden's got worms.
12:42What?
12:43When you say it like that, it's really disgusting.
12:44Hmm.
12:45But it's not these.
12:46What's not?
12:48Worms.
12:49I call it septural.
12:50They've got a couple of cases, all in the similar areas.
12:52Lily, Grace, Otto and Eden.
12:54What's this got to do with anyone?
12:56Well, she supplies local schools, kindergartens.
12:58I thought it might be the link, but it came back clear.
13:01They're all in the same area.
13:03We've checked nearby supermarkets, restaurants, nothing.
13:08When it rains, pause.
13:12It drains.
13:17Hi.
13:18Hi.
13:21What's going on?
13:24Nothing.
13:25You can hardly look me in the eye.
13:29Nuzzo?
13:32It's a mess.
13:33All of this, it's a mess.
13:35I'm sorry.
13:37Why you?
13:38Because you started this by coming in.
13:40That's not fair.
13:41I didn't think it would be so hard, but I thought...
13:44You thought you could just fall in love with whoever you want?
13:47Forget about your family?
13:49What they want for you?
13:51And what you want, really?
13:52No.
13:56Tell me this isn't what you want, and I'll go.
14:02Oh!
14:04Hey, what are you doing?
14:06Are you not so sour about before, are you?
14:08I just wanted to see you.
14:11Sage gave me a little telling off, just now.
14:14He did?
14:15It would have been almost cute if it wasn't so annoying.
14:17Maybe he's not the hell he's talking about.
14:18So, what are we doing tonight?
14:21Might be good to take a little bit of a break from your flatmates.
14:24Hey, they just, you know, don't make me feel super welcome.
14:27Oh, I was thinking maybe I might just be keen to stay in tonight.
14:32Pretty tired.
14:33Okay, yeah, we'll just go to mine.
14:35I mean, um, maybe a night to myself.
14:37Oh, my God.
14:41What?
14:42Now you've been talking to Sage and talking to Cleo, and now I'm the bad guy.
14:45But that's not how it is.
14:47Oh, I've got it wrong, have I?
14:49I don't want to do this.
14:50Hey, I'm talking to you.
14:52Let go.
14:53Look, Poppy, I love you.
14:55I just don't know why you're doing this.
14:56Let go of me.
14:58Stop it.
14:59Hendrix, what the hell?
15:01Let me go.
15:03Hendrix.
15:04You okay there, Poppy?
15:05Yeah, we're fine.
15:05No, we're not.
15:07I don't know what kind of macho bullshit you're playing out here, but maybe you should go.
15:10I just want to talk to my girlfriend.
15:11It's got nothing to do with you two.
15:13Yeah, but you weren't talking to her, were you?
15:14You'd grabbed her by the wrist.
15:15That is not how that was.
15:16Yes, it was.
15:18What's going on?
15:19If you'd just let me speak to you, then this...
15:20No.
15:21Don't put that on me.
15:23Don't put that on you, Jesus Christ.
15:24Just leave her alone.
15:25Okay, this has nothing to do with any of you, so why don't you back off, Poppy?
15:29Come on.
15:30No.
15:33You need to leave.
15:34Oh, you don't mean that.
15:35I do.
15:37I don't want this.
15:39I don't want you.
15:41Poppy.
15:42Don't speak to me again.
15:50It's pathetic.
15:51Yeah, you said it.
15:54You okay?
15:54I've been looking into technology that can help you communicate with the team.
16:03And with Tav, when he next comes to visit, Chris will be on top of it, I'm sure.
16:08Are you tired?
16:13Are you tired?
16:16I can...
16:17I can go if you want.
16:22I'll come back later.
16:23What's happening, Ellie?
16:32I don't think he's out for visitors right now.
16:36Okay.
16:37What?
16:38How long are you going to keep punishing yourself for?
16:45I'm just trying to help you, Mama.
16:46Okay.
16:46Okay.
16:46Do you like him?
16:57I get it.
16:58But it's obvious you think you're the reason he's in this state.
17:00He didn't want the DBS, but he trusted me and I...
17:06I pressured him.
17:09Okay.
17:10Do you think he's smart?
17:12Yeah.
17:14Do you think he's thoughtful, responsible?
17:18I mean, I just met him, but yeah.
17:21Okay, cool.
17:21So tell me why, when faced with the biggest decision of his life, he decided to not think
17:26it through and give it to someone he just met.
17:30Look, you feel guilty because you feel like you swayed his decision.
17:33I get it.
17:34I feel the same.
17:35But to some degree, you've got to know that it all comes down to Rami and the decision he
17:38made.
17:41What happened sucked, but it's not your fault.
17:45Sorry, did you mean to activate my monologue, mate?
17:48I've got plenty more, James, if you need them.
17:52I'm good, but I'll let you know.
17:59Yeah, looks great.
18:00Get it to council and local boards.
18:03And they'll put up signs around the playgrounds, right?
18:05Beware, worms.
18:06Don't lick the sides.
18:08Maybe they could put a gross little picture or something.
18:13So, that's another win for Medical Mystery Marty, then?
18:16If you insist on calling me that, yeah.
18:19You might want to make yourself scarce.
18:22Too late.
18:26You called child services.
18:29I did.
18:31Thanks.
18:33They're letting me see Rags and Riley.
18:34That's great.
18:36That's the least I could do.
18:38So, we'll be seeing Sammy and outpatients, then?
18:43Have you got everything you need?
18:45For now, I think.
18:47Okay, well, if you have any worries at all, just call us, yeah?
18:51Thanks.
18:54For everything.
18:56Of course.
18:56See you.
18:58See you.
18:59See you, Katie.
19:01By Sammy.
19:03So, you didn't back off, huh?
19:06Nice one.
19:07Got yourself unbanned?
19:13I'm locked up.
19:15She loves her kids.
19:16I got it wrong.
19:17Well, all parents do.
19:21No, they don't.
19:25Sorry.
19:26I don't know why I'm...
19:28Hey, it looked like a hectic gas case.
19:30I'd be upset, too.
19:32It's not that.
19:34She was here every day, and she had nothing.
19:36We had help and money.
19:39What are you saying, Phil?
19:43I...
19:43They used to forget about me all the time.
19:49I never felt like they wanted me.
19:53You never said any of this.
19:55I thought I was over it.
19:56I'm okay.
20:01Sorry.
20:01You don't need to hear about my poor little rich girl problems.
20:06No, it's all good.
20:07Rich girl.
20:09I got you.
20:15My condolences.
20:18Great.
20:18I can show you the numbers, but we certainly don't need a recount.
20:22Overwhelmingly in your favor.
20:23It's in the hospital's favor.
20:25Healthcare can't run on idealism.
20:26Can you stop talking about it like it's business?
20:28It costs too much not to be.
20:30You're undoing everything I worked for as CEO.
20:32And there it is.
20:33What?
20:35It was never about the people.
20:37Well, I don't have time to talk all night.
20:39I have patients and post-op care.
20:41You'll feel better if you just admit it.
20:43You want the power.
20:44No shame in that.
20:45Back off, Julia.
20:47Let me know when you're ready for an honest talk.
20:49Well, it's been wonderful working with you, but I think you would have found us a bit small fry.
21:03What was it that I called it again?
21:07A toy town hospital.
21:08That's right.
21:11To bigger and brighter things.
21:14Well, all the best.
21:17You too.
21:18So, she's not taking the contract?
21:28No.
21:29She did not.
21:31I was listening.
21:32I know that's uncool.
21:33It's not the right thing to do.
21:35But, you know, I did it because that's the kind of person I am.
21:38And you don't have to worry about that anymore.
21:39I love you, Mom.
21:43No, don't.
21:44No.
21:46I won't.
21:47I can't not.
21:49You balance me out.
21:52You bring out things in me that I can't do on my own.
21:55And you're kind.
21:56You're generous.
21:58You're smart.
21:59You're funny.
22:00And I can say all of those things without sounding more insincere or stupid.
22:04Yes.
22:04Look, I'm not saying that it's going to be easy.
22:07That's probably going to be pretty hard.
22:10I love you.
22:12You're all I want.
22:16So, please.
