Short filmTranscript
00:00:00A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured
00:00:07patients flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency department. The fate of these accident victims
00:00:12now rests in the hands of Vail's surgical team, their last hope for survival in the face of
00:00:18devastating trauma. Facials crashing, we need an attending surgeon now! All the hours are full,
00:00:23we got three more criticals incoming. Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding. I can't leave this
00:00:29one. Where's Dr. Stevens? We need another attending surgeon. Everyone else is in the EOR.
00:00:50Need a hand? A new hire. You just started this month. Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready
00:00:58for a level one trauma like this? The patient's pressure is dropping. Time to prove yourself,
00:01:02Dr. Marksman. Patient's yours.
00:01:10Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple. Whipple? For trauma? That's insane. Trust me.
00:01:18Metson bomb scissors. Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:01:24That procedure. That procedure will take hours. The patient won't survive.
00:01:28Bobby Cottery. Watch.
00:01:39He's doing it in half the normal time. The bleeding. It's under control. But how did he...
00:01:45Tilt suture? Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:02:01I've never seen anything like this. Almost done.
00:02:04This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:02:24Jesus, Adrian. What you just pulled off is impossible. I thought you were just some rookie
00:02:29surgeon, but that. That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed. Where did you learn
00:02:35to operate like that? What you just did will go down in the history books. Wait. I heard President
00:02:40Vale personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:02:47Is that you?
00:02:47Final suture. Miss Vale's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:03Doctor.
00:03:05The nurses, they said you did it. And you, you actually did.
00:03:11Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation. Every surgeon on the west coast said it was
00:03:19inoperable, that she only had weeks to live, but you, you saved my Catherine. She'll make a full
00:03:26recovery, President Vale. Name your price, whatever it is. We need you at Vale. My hospital.
00:03:35Look, I'll explain later. Right now, we have three critical patients that need specialized
00:03:39procedures. It's going to take hours. Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:03:44I'll take over from here. Okay. Good work, everyone.
00:04:09You're all stable. Every single one of them. Stabilized.
00:04:29Oh, sun's coming up. You must operate it all night. You're a machine.
00:04:35Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks. All right. It's time for some much-needed shut-eye.
00:04:53Hey, you.
00:05:01Hey, yourself.
00:05:02I've been operating all night. I saved every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:10What you did was extraordinary. How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:05:15Because I know you. Better than anyone.
00:05:25Blueberry. Your favorite.
00:05:28You remembered. Where's your dad?
00:05:31You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:05:34I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:05:49It's the third time this week. Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:05:53Hmm.
00:05:55So who's this marksman guy?
00:05:57His surgical skills are unreal.
00:05:58Sure. I thought he was just another new hire.
00:06:01I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:06:04With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:06:15What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:06:17Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:06:23Who is this guy?
00:06:26Preston Vale, Preston Vale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:06:29He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
00:06:33who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:06:38I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?
00:06:44Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:06:46Sir, about right-
00:06:47Save it!
00:06:50Parker, you couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:06:53You're fired.
00:06:56Clear out your office.
00:06:57New management means new standards.
00:07:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from posers.
00:07:05Attention and everybody's attention now.
00:07:08If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
00:07:14No complications, no deaths.
00:07:17This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:07:20Who's he thinking is? Dr. House?
00:07:24What is this?
00:07:28Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:07:31Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:07:35This is a hospital.
00:07:37We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:07:40That was from my residency direction.
00:07:43Oh, cry me a river!
00:07:45Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients,
00:07:48and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.
00:07:52You're fired.
00:07:53Excuse me?
00:07:54Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop,
00:07:56just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:07:59Yes, sir.
00:08:00Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:08:03Oh, that was good. Let's go.
00:08:10Well, well, well.
00:08:12What do we have here?
00:08:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:08:17Rise and shine, superstar.
00:08:23Did I order a wake-up call?
00:08:25No, you didn't.
00:08:27But here's one anyway.
00:08:28You are fired!
00:08:33Are you serious?
00:08:34You're firing me?
00:08:36Do you need me to draw your diagram, doctor?
00:08:39Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:08:42Fiona, what's his position here?
00:08:44He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:08:50What's he make?
00:08:51700,000.
00:08:53That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:08:55700?
00:08:57Are you insane?
00:08:58You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:09:01This hospital is being scammed.
00:09:04I just worked all night, okay?
00:09:06I'm just taking a nap.
00:09:07Also, now you're expecting overtime pay.
00:09:10Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:09:14What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:09:16Are they as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:09:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
00:09:26My career comes first.
00:09:28Boy, bye.
00:09:30There must be some clerical error.
00:09:32His credentials.
00:09:34Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:09:36Fiona, Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
00:09:47Clear out your office, clear out your locker, and get the hell out of my hospital.
00:09:54This is a mistake, okay?
00:09:55You need to check the surgical lock.
00:09:56You don't get to wear that.
00:10:04I see.
00:10:08Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:10:10You don't understand.
00:10:11He's the one who-
00:10:12Didn't I fire you two already?
00:10:14Beat it.
00:10:16Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:10:18Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:10:26I understand.
00:10:40Hospital politics.
00:10:42I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
00:10:46Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
00:10:48I'll be waiting.
00:10:56You care to explain that little exchange?
00:11:05The board won't like this.
00:11:07Four attendings dismissed in one day.
00:11:09Patient care will suffer.
00:11:11Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
00:11:13I intend to wield it.
00:11:15Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular.
00:11:19Your little scam artist situation ship.
00:11:22No, Preston.
00:11:23He means nothing to me.
00:11:25Really.
00:11:26I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
00:11:27Let's be clear about your future here.
00:11:31Do you want to be with the nobody, collecting unemployment checks,
00:11:35or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?
00:11:41The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
00:11:45Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded
00:11:48who's in charge around here.
00:11:50Hey, Dad.
00:11:53What's wrong?
00:11:54Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
00:11:56She'll be okay.
00:11:57And Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
00:12:00Dr. Marksman, whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
00:12:05Dr. Marksman?
00:12:06Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
00:12:09Didn't I just fired?
00:12:10Preston, are you there?
00:12:13Check the staff roster.
00:12:16Um, see if we have another marksman.
00:12:18I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
00:12:21He's the surgeon who saved your mother's life.
00:12:24And he's the hospital's reputation rests on.
00:12:27Ah, yes, I see now.
00:12:32There's another surgeon attending with that name.
00:12:36Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
00:12:39Research, this is what you mean, Dad?
00:12:41That's our man.
00:12:42For us.
00:12:44Negligent, lazy, you name it.
00:12:45Already done, Dad.
00:12:47I fired his slacker.
00:12:48And I fired our star surgeon.
00:12:50Good work, son.
00:12:52I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
00:12:54Just, uh, just take care.
00:13:04See?
00:13:05Told you that slacker resident I fired.
00:13:06Civil traumas incoming.
00:13:07The six-car pileup.
00:13:08You fired half our surgery team.
00:13:10What's your point?
00:13:11ER is crashing.
00:13:12We've no one left who can handle it.
00:13:20Give me the situation.
00:13:21Those three more incoming.
00:13:23Multiple crush injuries.
00:13:24Arterial bleeds, sir.
00:13:26We're losing patients.
00:13:28What are our options?
00:13:29There might be one solution.
00:13:31Well, spit it out.
00:13:32Dr. Marksman.
00:13:34He handled four critical traumas alone last night.
00:13:36If we can get him back here.
00:13:38Marksman.
00:13:39Right.
00:13:39I didn't fire.
00:13:40Keep up.
00:13:40Idiot left his research notes.
00:13:53Hmm.
00:13:55Modified trauma protocol.
00:13:58Wait.
00:13:59Well says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.
00:14:05I'm on my way.
00:14:07They'll make me department head, and I can finally make seven figures.
00:14:11Well?
00:14:25Now, about your loyalty.
00:14:27Adrian meant nothing.
00:14:30I was using him to advance my career.
00:14:32You're my future.
00:14:35That's my girl.
00:14:43Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
00:14:47To hell with this.
00:15:06Piece of shit.
00:15:11Get your hand off my girl.
00:15:14Oh, just knock it off, Adrian.
00:15:16You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
00:15:22You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
00:15:25I can choose who I want.
00:15:27And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.
00:15:29You pathetic loser.
00:15:46We're done, Adrian.
00:15:49Ancient history.
00:15:51Are you serious?
00:15:53Just like that.
00:15:55Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.
00:15:57Why are you doing this, Fiona?
00:16:02Am I just a stepping stone to you?
00:16:03I need someone with a future.
00:16:05Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying.
00:16:08Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.
00:16:15It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.
00:16:17Oh, look at us, Adrian.
00:16:24I'm the future of Vail Hospital.
00:16:26And you?
00:16:30Just a slacker and scrubs.
00:16:33You're washed up, Marksman.
00:16:35Perhaps try nursing.
00:16:36I hear they're always hiring.
00:16:39Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.
00:16:43I thought we could build a family together.
00:16:46Get over yourself.
00:16:48You think I'm gonna stay with someone who lied about their credentials?
00:16:52President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.
00:16:56We're done.
00:17:00I'm not done.
00:17:02But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.
00:17:07You can count on that.
00:17:11No, no, no. Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.
00:17:14Your troubles are just getting started.
00:17:20Who authorizes you to be here?
00:17:22Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision,
00:17:25we've stabilized all the patients from the multi-car accident,
00:17:29and the situation is completely under control.
00:17:31You're Dr. Marksman.
00:17:33Ah, yes. The very same.
00:17:35My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.
00:17:39Harvard Medical, was it?
00:17:41These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.
00:17:47As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.
00:17:51Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues
00:17:55in OR3 today.
00:17:57He was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table.
00:18:01Clear-cut medical malfeasance.
00:18:03Dr. Hart.
00:18:13Incredible news.
00:18:15Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking,
00:18:19he's just been terminated from Vail Hospital.
00:18:23When?
00:18:23Less than an hour ago, dismissed by President Vail's son.
00:18:30Amazing.
00:18:31I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon was fired by his submental son.
00:18:38With our respect, we're still establishing our reputation.
00:18:43Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?
00:18:47I'll offer him whatever it takes.
00:18:50Full department autonomy.
00:18:53Research funding.
00:18:54State-of-the-art facilities.
00:18:57And if necessary,
00:18:59my personal involvement.
00:19:02His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.
00:19:06Have my car brought round.
00:19:08I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.
00:19:10And Adrian Marksman?
00:19:12He's leaving with me.
00:19:20Alphysus.
00:19:21What kind of delusional accusation is that?
00:19:23Now, don't insult our intelligence.
00:19:25A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.
00:19:28The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.
00:19:30Yet you stand there denying it.
00:19:31This is crazy.
00:19:33You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon,
00:19:36and when a complication occurs,
00:19:37which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,
00:19:42you blame me.
00:19:45The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.
00:19:50If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be,
00:19:53you would still have a job.
00:19:56I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.
00:19:59Security, please detain him.
00:20:06What exactly are you accusing me of?
00:20:09Either confess to medical malfeasance, or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.
00:20:16Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.
00:20:21What other medical atrocities have you committed?
00:20:23You better confess now, or we'll do that by giving the power to make sure you lose your medical license.
00:20:28Fine. Go ahead. Do your worst.
00:20:34Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.
00:20:37You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?
00:20:44Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?
00:20:48Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.
00:20:52After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.
00:20:54Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.
00:20:58Not after what he did to our patients.
00:21:00I'm contacting the medical board right now.
00:21:04As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital and every medical institute in the country.
00:21:11Plans in motion, Adrian.
00:21:13Do you know what that means?
00:21:15It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.
00:21:21I have one question before I go.
00:21:24Does your father know you fired me?
00:21:26My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.
00:21:30You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?
00:21:36Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.
00:21:39Immediately.
00:21:41Yes, doctor.
00:21:42Right away, sir.
00:21:45That's quite enough.
00:21:54Let him go.
00:21:59Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as Chief of Surgical Innovation at Heart Medical Center.
00:22:08I know you.
00:22:11You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.
00:22:16That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.
00:22:20Vivian, I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium like four or five years ago.
00:22:25What are you doing here?
00:22:27Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.
00:22:30Oh, wait, are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?
00:22:37He was sleeping during rounds.
00:22:39Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?
00:22:44Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.
00:22:49Dr. Hart, with all due respect...
00:22:54This is a conversation between medical directors.
00:22:56Someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence.
00:22:59Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.
00:23:05He compromised patient safety and...
00:23:08I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, Dr.
00:23:11Marksman.
00:23:12David Marksman.
00:23:13I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.
00:23:16After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.
00:23:23His negligence led to the problem.
00:23:26His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.
00:23:32Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?
00:23:36Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?
00:23:41Of course I consulted my father.
00:23:43He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.
00:23:50Dangerous shortcuts?
00:23:53Is that what President Vail really said?
00:23:55His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.
00:23:58President Vail was the one that recruited me. This makes absolutely no sense.
00:24:02Please, Adrian, the President wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.
00:24:08Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.
00:24:13Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute to any of you.
00:24:18Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our Chief of Surgery?
00:24:23Well, I have full department autonomy, protected research time, a surgical fellowship in your name,
00:24:32and a seven-figure salary package.
00:25:02And, Cash, Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:25:12Hopefully this shows you.
00:25:14I mean what I say.
00:25:15Chief of surgery?
00:25:26You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:25:31Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs?
00:25:35This is absurd. He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.
00:25:40And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:25:45The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:25:50Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:25:54This isn't about money.
00:25:57Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:26:02She's offering herself up to him. She can't do that.
00:26:05Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:26:08At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves,
00:26:12including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:26:19And I do mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:26:23Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation, you need to know that this hack
00:26:28you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history of negligence.
00:26:33My father confirmed it himself.
00:26:35Is that precisely what Nelson Bale told you?
00:26:38His exact words.
00:26:41Negligence search? What are those?
00:26:46Personal gifts from your father.
00:26:48My fellowship offer, my personal research lab, my surgical team, I'm leaving it all behind.
00:27:00You can tell President Vail that as of this moment, Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn
00:27:06from Vail Hospital and all of its affiliated institutions.
00:27:09You know what? Spare us the theatrics, Adrian. You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:27:16The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:27:19Oh, your stupidity, it's just astonishing.
00:27:24You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:27:28This man is a life-saving artist.
00:27:35Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Vail Hospital.
00:27:40Yeah, look, I'll be real. We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:27:45Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:27:47Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:27:52Look at yourself, Adrian. Offering your skills to a struggling clinic. How pathetically desperate.
00:28:01Oh, a backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his
00:28:07caliber. How dare you talk to me like that!
00:28:10Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation. As the responsible party,
00:28:18I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals,
00:28:22and with an explanation to every affected Vail Hospital patient.
00:28:28Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently!
00:28:33That accusation isn't just baseless. It's absurd.
00:28:37What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?
00:28:40You've got no choice but to sign this confession.
00:28:42Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon. If you insist on pursuing this vendetta,
00:28:47have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:28:51We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:28:56If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that I've got.
00:29:03Let's go. One more second and this cesspool is going to make me physically ill.
00:29:12Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those secondary practitioners.
00:29:23David, you've proven your loyalty. The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.
00:29:30This is extraordinary. Thank you. I am honored beyond words.
00:29:38Don't forget about me, Preston. Don't worry, babe. You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:29:47How exciting. Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.
00:29:54Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed. Six critical patients incoming. Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:30:01Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.
00:30:03Shit. I'm screwed. Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.
00:30:09If Preston finds out I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:30:13I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.
00:30:20These techniques are revolutionary. I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:30:24It's impressive, Dr. Marksman. You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:30:29No need to bore me with the specifics. I trust your brilliance.
00:30:33Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:30:35With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters. Hospital expansion.
00:30:42Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.
00:30:50Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:30:54Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:30:59I'm glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:31:03Yeah. Well, sorry. Who's this?
00:31:10Nelson Vail speaking.
00:31:11President Vail, Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:31:14I am calling to let you know that as of this morning,
00:31:17Hart Medical Center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena.
00:31:21Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:31:26Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:31:30This is merely a professional courtesy call, not an invitation for debate.
00:31:34Now, just...
00:31:40Just that conniving bitch plotting.
00:31:43She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:31:47Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning?
00:31:54Unless...
00:32:02Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:32:04Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:32:06Dad, relax.
00:32:08I fired the other one, that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:32:12Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.
00:32:20Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.
00:32:25It's not way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:32:30I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.
00:32:34When in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:32:37So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:32:40She thinks she's hired genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:32:45That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:32:48Impressive, son.
00:32:49You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:32:52I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:32:54I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:33:01Dad, this is everything I've worked for.
00:33:05We'll get to work immediately.
00:33:06We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:33:14Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:33:17I won't let you down.
00:33:18Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:33:24Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:33:27Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:33:31I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:33:36Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:33:41You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:33:44Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:33:46Exactly.
00:33:46And all I need to do is stay hands off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:33:56As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:34:04Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:34:12What we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:34:26So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:34:32It's not bad.
00:34:34It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:34:36What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:34:39It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:34:45You too.
00:34:47We need to expand.
00:34:49It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:34:52Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vale fired.
00:35:01We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:35:04And I always find the best one.
00:35:09I'm going to start recruiting.
00:35:17Good.
00:35:19The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:35:24This better be good.
00:35:39Mr. Vale, you wanted to see me?
00:35:42My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:35:51Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:35:56Mr. Vale, I, uh...
00:35:58Is there an issue with that?
00:36:00No, absolutely not.
00:36:02The budget for innovation is astronomical.
00:36:05And President Vale has already handed control to his son?
00:36:09If I oversee these procedures, I could divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:36:15Mr. Vale, you can trust me completely.
00:36:18I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:36:20Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:36:25Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously.
00:36:28The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.
00:36:30What?
00:36:31They both resigned at once?
00:36:32What was their explanation?
00:36:33They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:36:35But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vale physician.
00:36:38Along with the three other surgeons you fired before.
00:36:40Former physician Adrian Marksman, this has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:36:45Preston, what's our contingency plan?
00:36:47The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:36:50If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.
00:36:52Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.
00:36:57You still have me.
00:36:58I can rebuild this department.
00:37:00Ah, yes.
00:37:02With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:37:05Exactly.
00:37:06So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:37:09Let him go.
00:37:11I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai and UCLA.
00:37:15Good work, Marksman.
00:37:21This is working out perfectly.
00:37:23Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:37:26Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:37:41It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Hart.
00:37:58This is Dr. Parker here.
00:38:00He's a triple board certified surgeon.
00:38:02And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:38:05This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:38:10All consummate professionals.
00:38:12My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.
00:38:17With this surgical team,
00:38:19Heart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.
00:38:22Actually, the whole world.
00:38:25We're eager to begin, Dr. Hart.
00:38:27Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:38:32I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.
00:38:38We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.
00:38:44Have no fear, Dr. Hart.
00:38:45With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.
00:38:50Yes, but Vail has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:38:56Yeah, about that.
00:38:58It's a preliminary version.
00:38:59If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:39:02Then what?
00:39:03A lot of deaths, a lot of lawsuits, a lot of patients could be harmed or worse.
00:39:09These procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.
00:39:14Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training without that foundation.
00:39:20We're talking about serious complications, preventable harm.
00:39:24Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:39:27We need to perfect these procedures.
00:39:29And then we can find a way to prevent Vail from continuing with the flawed protocols.
00:39:34Exactly.
00:39:35It's not about competition or pride.
00:39:37It's about saving lives.
00:39:41We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Vail to develop next generation
00:39:46surgical techniques, eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies.
00:39:52Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new,
00:39:57we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:40:01And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols,
00:40:04rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:40:08I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:40:11Remember this moment.
00:40:13In this battle for medical supremacy,
00:40:15Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:40:18It's 3 a.m.
00:40:27Lost track of time again.
00:40:34Viv, you surprised me.
00:40:37Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:40:41Do you mind?
00:40:42No.
00:40:42I mean, yeah, will you give all your surgeons massages?
00:40:50Only the ones I really, really like.
00:40:58You really, really like me?
00:40:59Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:41:04Nothing's changed.
00:41:05You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:41:09I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:41:11There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:41:15Only you.
00:41:18But you were completely oblivious.
00:41:21And then you just vanished from the program.
00:41:24Well, I left to join the Experimental Surgical Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:41:28I know.
00:41:29Your talent was extraordinary even then.
00:41:35Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:41:40You know, when I established Heart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:41:46But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Vale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:41:55I understand now.
00:41:59So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:42:09We're the boss.
00:42:11That's right.
00:42:12And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:42:17Tonight?
00:42:18You lost everything when Preston fired you.
00:42:20Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital subsidized apartment.
00:42:30You have literally nowhere else to go tonight.
00:42:34Come with me.
00:42:37Where?
00:42:39My place.
00:42:48All right.
00:42:49I'll admit it.
00:42:51That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:42:53Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:42:55I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:42:58That just depends on the company.
00:43:00Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:43:05Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:43:09Are you sure about that?
00:43:10We already work late hours.
00:43:13Living together could get complicated.
00:43:16Well, I like complicated.
00:43:19Keeps things interesting.
00:43:22And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:43:25Well, my master suite has a California king.
00:43:36Plenty of room.
00:43:37If things ever need to get more collaborative.
00:43:44Really?
00:43:46Relax.
00:43:47I'm only teasing.
00:43:49Tonight, at least.
00:43:52Come on.
00:43:53I'll show you your room.
00:43:59Unless you'd rather have a nightcap.
00:44:01And mine.
00:44:02Things could get dangerous.
00:44:15Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:44:22You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:44:24Dr. Marksman.
00:44:26The experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:44:30We need at least six months to properly master.
00:44:34Six months?
00:44:35You have 72 hours.
00:44:37And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:44:39Sir, brushing these delicate procedures
00:44:43dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications.
00:44:46Three days.
00:44:47Then you don't get one hour more.
00:44:50Go.
00:44:51Go.
00:44:55Report, Dr. Marksman.
00:44:56What's our status?
00:44:58Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.
00:44:59We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:45:04That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:45:06I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.
00:45:14Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:45:18Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:45:19Outstanding.
00:45:21When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:45:25Your father must be so proud of you.
00:45:28Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:45:30I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:45:34This is my shot.
00:45:35Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:45:37With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.
00:45:41Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators such as yourself.
00:45:51I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more effectively throughout the entire hospital.
00:45:59If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.
00:46:02Truly, that's...
00:46:04I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:46:09You're finally awake.
00:46:28You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.
00:46:36All right.
00:46:37Ooh, breakfast.
00:46:39Looks good.
00:46:40When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.
00:46:47Sound good?
00:46:47Yes.
00:46:48Absolutely.
00:46:49Good.
00:46:52Get it up and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.
00:47:00Extra special.
00:47:10Okay, team.
00:47:11We're approaching a critical phase of our program development.
00:47:14We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time.
00:47:18So, let's get to it.
00:47:20Let's start revolutionizing medicine.
00:47:22I have excellent news for all of you.
00:47:24I've just finalized arrangements with the board.
00:47:27And upon successful implementation of our surgical innovations, each of you will receive a fully funded
00:47:34medical mission trip anywhere in the world that you choose to share your expertise.
00:47:38And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification, every surgeon on this
00:47:45team will be gifted a percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.
00:47:52At Hart Medical Center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution.
00:47:58And you will be compensated accordingly.
00:48:00Dr. Hart, we are fully committed to making this surgical program a success.
00:48:08Absolutely.
00:48:09You'll be seeing progress ASAP.
00:48:11Vail Hospital won't know what hit him.
00:48:13With Adrian leading us, victory is guaranteed.
00:48:16Hart is best!
00:48:17Hart is best!
00:48:18Hart is best!
00:48:20Hart is best!
00:48:21Hart is best!
00:48:22Hart is best!
00:48:53You always this disciplined?
00:48:56Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:48:59If I was trying to impress you, you even know.
00:49:02Midnight meetings, long hours, this work ethic of yours, it's a little dangerous.
00:49:14That's what Val used to say about me.
00:49:17Then they fired me.
00:49:18And they were fools.
00:49:25You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.
00:49:28You know that, right?
00:49:34You trying to motivate me again?
00:49:36I don't try.
00:49:41I do.
00:49:45Well, don't work too late.
00:49:48You're no good to me, burnt out.
00:50:00The incompetence is staggering.
00:50:05Yeah, you too are in way over your heads.
00:50:10Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:50:12I give you one simple task and you screw it up!
00:50:15How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:50:19Vail General Hospital is the gold standard and you two are just standing around like
00:50:25clueless little interns.
00:50:27If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow, you're both gone.
00:50:30Is that clear?
00:50:32Yes, sir.
00:50:34This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:50:37Go.
00:50:45Oh, Mr. Vail.
00:50:47What a, what a, what a surprise.
00:50:49Cut the bullshit, Marksman.
00:50:51We're on schedule or not?
00:50:53Of course.
00:50:54We're, we're just refining the final stages.
00:50:58Yeah, everything is under control.
00:51:01Good.
00:51:02There's a problem.
00:51:03I expect to hear it from you.
00:51:04No cover-ups.
00:51:05Of course, sir.
00:51:09Mr. Vail.
00:51:10Not now.
00:51:11Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:51:16It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here.
00:51:23Don't worry.
00:51:24When Preston makes me chief medical officer, I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:51:30I respect the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:51:40Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:51:46This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:51:51especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.
00:51:56The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?
00:52:01Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:52:03Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:52:06I hope you're right.
00:52:08For your sake.
00:52:12Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:52:18It's not a success.
00:52:20Yet.
00:52:23Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:52:25Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical, it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.
00:52:30Dr. Hurt, we, uh, have a problem.
00:52:46Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.
00:52:49That soon?
00:52:50They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.
00:52:55It's a good thing we're ahead of...
00:52:57You're saying we're ready?
00:53:00Why would I lie?
00:53:02We've been tracking Vail's every move.
00:53:05Let him celebrate.
00:53:06It's just gonna backfire.
00:53:07How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:53:11Viv, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?
00:53:16Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:53:18He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:53:20And?
00:53:20Their model's flawed.
00:53:21If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach...
00:53:27We won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:53:30And what about when it falls apart?
00:53:31Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.
00:53:36So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?
00:53:41It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:53:44They're using an early draft full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:53:48They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.
00:53:52That actually makes perfect sense.
00:53:56Which means we've already won.
00:53:59Well, this is a big day for us.
00:54:01We should celebrate.
00:54:02What do you have in mind?
00:54:03Drinks?
00:54:04Not quite.
00:54:05You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:54:09What?
00:54:10Why?
00:54:11Let me worry about that.
00:54:12In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout.
00:54:15Finish whatever procedures you need to.
00:54:18And meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. sharp.
00:54:35Preston, we've been through so much together.
00:54:37I know where I'm headed in life, and I know who I want by my side.
00:54:43Tonight, at this launch party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:54:49it's like the perfect moment to ask,
00:54:52will you marry me?
00:54:57You should be fun.
00:55:02Absolutely.
00:55:04You really know how to take care of your staff, Mr. Vail?
00:55:06Oh, stop it.
00:55:08Too bad you're taken.
00:55:09Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:55:11Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:55:13Told her meet me out here so we can go to this party together.
00:55:16Forget about her.
00:55:17She's just social climbing trash anyways.
00:55:20We'll show you a better time.
00:55:24Now that's an offer I can't refuse.
00:55:26Let's go.
00:55:26Fiona who?
00:55:27Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:55:33Let me get you up.
00:55:36The number you have dialed is unavailable.
00:55:57Please try again later.
00:55:58It's 20 in one day.
00:56:24All clean, all stable.
00:56:27The experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:56:30You did it.
00:56:32No, we didn't.
00:56:37Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vail's launch party pronto.
00:56:40You're already late.
00:56:41I need a change there.
00:56:42You don't have time.
00:56:43Where's Vivian?
00:56:46Taking care of something.
00:56:48She said it's really important that you be there,
00:56:49and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:56:53Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vail Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.
00:56:57What the fuck?
00:57:14You're my date, and you're wasted.
00:57:16I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:57:19Yeah.
00:57:19God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:57:21So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up, for God's sakes.
00:57:25Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
00:57:47It's giving orderly sheep.
00:57:52Maybe he's here to bust tables.
00:57:55What are you doing at our launch party?
00:57:58You weren't invited.
00:57:59You so sure about that?
00:58:00I mean, look at you.
00:58:01This is a black tie?
00:58:03I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
00:58:07Oh, look who crawled in from the gutter.
00:58:10The found surgeon.
00:58:12The fraud.
00:58:14The nobody.
00:58:16Show up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
00:58:19Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the lowlives.
00:58:22Guess I need to fire them, too.
00:58:23Oh, pardon me.
00:58:24I just came straight from surgery.
00:58:26Because some of us here are real surgeons.
00:58:29What are you trying to say?
00:58:30I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
00:58:36I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
00:58:43Got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
00:58:47A genius like him leading our surgical team?
00:58:49You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
00:58:52Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
00:58:54When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
00:59:00What are you talking about?
00:59:04Identity theft.
00:59:05Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
00:59:08Yours?
00:59:09Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
00:59:12If you don't got it, just act like you do.
00:59:15Speaking from experience.
00:59:18Look around you.
00:59:20This is the elite among the elite.
00:59:23The best of the best in the medical field.
00:59:25Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
00:59:29Good.
00:59:30I'm glad.
00:59:31Because you're all beneath me.
00:59:33Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
00:59:36That's enough.
00:59:37Guards!
00:59:39This former employee is threatening us.
00:59:42Kick him out.
00:59:44Touch me and you'll regret it.
00:59:47I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
00:59:51What are you dumbasses doing?
00:59:52Grab him.
00:59:55Christy.
01:00:08Christy.
01:00:09What the hell is this?
01:00:11Dad.
01:00:12Relax.
01:00:13I, uh...
01:00:14Relax?
01:00:15This twat came in on invite.
01:00:17I was just kicking him out.
01:00:18Guards!
01:00:19Remove him immediately.
01:00:20President Vale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:00:23You get out of my way.
01:00:25Dad, what are you doing?
01:00:26This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:00:30You are such a fool!
01:00:34Dad, what are you doing?
01:00:37Open your eyes, Preston.
01:00:39This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:00:43You are a...
01:00:45Disgraced!
01:00:47Dad!
01:00:48My hospital meant something and you turned it into a...
01:00:53Into a...
01:00:54Dad!
01:00:56Dad!
01:01:01Dad!
01:01:03President Vail.
01:01:05Fuck away from my dad!
01:01:07Are you out of your mind? He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:01:10Oh yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:01:12I'll die before I trust you two.
01:01:14Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:01:15David!
01:01:16David!
01:01:17Do something.
01:01:18It's cold.
01:01:18It's cold.
01:01:19Can't think of what to do next?
01:01:25Blanking?
01:01:26Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:01:28Shut up!
01:01:29Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:01:32This is ridiculous.
01:01:33I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:01:36Why are you just standing there?
01:01:37Do something!
01:01:39What's the matter, David?
01:01:41If you need help, just ask.
01:01:43All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:01:46Right here.
01:01:47Right now.
01:01:48I can't blow my cover, but what if I kill him?
01:01:53I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:01:55I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:01:57I did medical school on Zoom.
01:02:00David, this is a matter of life and death.
01:02:04Let it go.
01:02:06I...
01:02:07I...
01:02:09I can't.
01:02:11I can't do this.
01:02:14Okay, I can't.
01:02:16I can't do this.
01:02:17I can't do this without my notebook.
01:02:24That's my surgical notebook.
01:02:26He stole it from me.
01:02:34Okay, okay.
01:02:35I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:02:41Okay.
01:02:43I gotta, I gotta...
01:02:45Here, take it, take it, take it.
01:02:47Okay.
01:02:48All right, hold his head.
01:02:49But tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:02:54Okay.
01:02:54Okay.
01:03:05Okay.
01:03:07Okay.
01:03:08Okay.
01:03:09Four.
01:03:11Four.
01:03:11Four.
01:03:11Four.
01:03:11Four.
01:03:15Oh, thank God.
01:03:16How are you?
01:03:17What up?
01:03:23Oh, that's my guy.
01:03:25Surgical genius.
01:03:27That's how Val makes history.
01:03:29Somebody get this man a medal.
01:03:32Or at least a new department.
01:03:33If you still want that chief medical officer position, say the word.
01:03:38Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:03:42That maneuver.
01:03:44That notebook.
01:03:45It's mine.
01:03:46Then tell them.
01:03:51Where is he going?
01:03:53Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:03:57Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:03:59Say, hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:04:07That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:04:11What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:04:13He's delusional.
01:04:15Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:04:18The notebook he used to save your father.
01:04:21That's mine.
01:04:22My handwriting.
01:04:24My theories.
01:04:26You're just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:04:29I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:04:34And when it fails,
01:04:35and it will,
01:04:38you're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:04:41The patients will.
01:04:42You can't prove that.
01:04:44Not yet.
01:04:45But you can't fake medicine.
01:04:49Medicine and science.
01:04:50Always tell the truth.
01:04:55Our three's vitals just dropped.
01:04:57We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:04:58Second patient today.
01:04:59Same issue.
01:05:00Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:05:03These techniques aren't viable.
01:05:04The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:05:07I mean, come on.
01:05:09Tonight proves it.
01:05:10We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:05:20I'll be right back.
01:05:22Just coordinating with the team.
01:05:26Talk to me.
01:05:28The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again.
01:05:30This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:05:35Use the compression step.
01:05:37That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:05:39We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:05:43Look, just follow the notes.
01:05:48I designed those techniques for 101 guidance.
01:05:51Not mass implementation.
01:05:53Without calibration.
01:05:55It's unstable.
01:05:57It's dangerous.
01:05:58They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:06:01Now people are paying for it.
01:06:04All good?
01:06:05Of course.
01:06:07Just routine coordination.
01:06:09Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:06:12Your surgical program is failing.
01:06:14And patients are suffering.
01:06:16You've been out of the field for months.
01:06:18You wouldn't know?
01:06:19Yeah, I would know.
01:06:20Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:06:24And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:06:28Bullshit.
01:06:29Bullshit.
01:06:29Oh, yes, this is Dr. Marksman.
01:06:37Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:06:40Okay, listen very carefully.
01:06:43Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:06:52No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial ligation, followed by a rapid sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:07:05Yes.
01:07:07Yes.
01:07:09Yes.
01:07:12How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:07:15This whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:07:17You stole his methods.
01:07:19This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:07:25Uh, that's a lie.
01:07:26Then prove me wrong.
01:07:28Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:07:33Why would we believe anything he says?
01:07:35He was fired.
01:07:36Humiliated.
01:07:37You're right, I was fired.
01:07:39And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:07:45You know what?
01:07:45This is pathetic.
01:07:46He's just jealous.
01:07:48He missed his shot.
01:07:49Is that what you told yourself?
01:07:51When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:07:55Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:07:59I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:08:13I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:08:16And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:08:23Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:08:26You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, the one person who could make them safe.
01:08:35Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:08:38Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:08:40Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:08:41This hospital was built on trust and integrity, and you've disgraced them both.
01:08:46Your father nearly died because of your ego, because of his lies.
01:08:54You saved me.
01:08:56You saved Nelson.
01:08:58And now you can save Vale.
01:09:01I tried to warn you all.
01:09:03No one listened.
01:09:04Well, they're listening now.
01:09:05You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two, and probably even more than me.
01:09:13It was a mistake to let you go.
01:09:17Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.
01:09:22They weren't ready.
01:09:23They needed supervision.
01:09:25Precision.
01:09:27Development.
01:09:27Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:09:32Oh, you can't prove that.
01:09:35Security footage.
01:09:39Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.
01:09:43Already submitted to the board.
01:09:46I built on what he started.
01:09:49Okay?
01:09:50I didn't steal.
01:09:51I enhanced it.
01:09:53Then why were patients about to die?
01:09:55You falsified rollout readiness?
01:09:59He did more than that.
01:10:01He put lives at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:10:06We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:10:10This is absurd.
01:10:12This was supposed to be our night.
01:10:13Oh, it's your night.
01:10:15It's just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:10:18You lied to me.
01:10:20I didn't lie.
01:10:21I simplified the truth.
01:10:23Simplify?
01:10:24You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:10:29You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:10:32You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:10:35That's malpractice.
01:10:36They worked.
01:10:38Nelson's alive.
01:10:39Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:10:41Yeah, because of me.
01:10:42Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:10:47Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:10:50Wait, these really are your techniques?
01:10:52I tested them for years.
01:10:55It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:10:58Not without training.
01:10:59You're rewriting history?
01:11:01No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:11:04Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.
01:11:09And without him, it won't.
01:11:11This is absurd!
01:11:13You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:11:16He's not disgraced, son.
01:11:18You are.
01:11:20You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:11:23And then when your ego wasn't enough, you propped up this fraud.
01:11:29Taking his side, dad?
01:11:32I'm your son.
01:11:34I'm taking the side of truth.
01:11:36And so will the board.
01:11:38We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:11:41Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:11:46Suspended?
01:11:47No, no, no.
01:11:47You can't do that.
01:11:48You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:11:51We understand the liability.
01:11:52That's enough.
01:11:55Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Marksman, come with us.
01:12:01Dad, you're not going to laugh and drag me out like this.
01:12:03I'm your son.
01:12:04No, don't you touch me.
01:12:06You're not a child.
01:12:07Hey, dad!
01:12:08You're not my responsibility.
01:12:24Trin, please.
01:12:26I made a mistake.
01:12:27I see that now.
01:12:28I should have believed in you.
01:12:30I should have stood by you.
01:12:32You were right about everything.
01:12:33Just give me a second chance.
01:12:39Please.
01:12:40I still love you.
01:12:44Love, you traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:12:48You don't understand.
01:12:50I thought he was finished.
01:12:53I thought he had nothing left.
01:12:54So you sold him out.
01:12:56Mocked him.
01:12:58Over and over again.
01:13:00I was scared.
01:13:01I didn't know what to do.
01:13:03Oh, you knew.
01:13:04You just didn't care.
01:13:06Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:13:10Please.
01:13:12Say something.
01:13:15Anything.
01:13:16You had your chance, Fiona.
01:13:18And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:13:22You always belonged in my operating room.
01:13:33And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:13:39The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board and David will never go near another patient again.
01:13:48We're rebuilding.
01:13:49We're rebuilding.
01:13:49And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:13:55I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:13:59You had your chance, too.
01:14:02I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:14:04Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:14:08Adrian 2.0.
01:14:10I'm not coming back.
01:14:14You're choosing her?
01:14:15Our rival?
01:14:17You arrogant little ingrate.
01:14:19I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:14:24Just typical.
01:14:26Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?
01:14:31She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:14:35Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:14:38Get me out of here.
01:14:40Now!
01:14:58Karma has good timing.
01:14:59Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:15:06We have lives to save.
01:15:07Hey!
01:15:09Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:15:13I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:15:19Now?
01:15:20Well, there's no time like the present.
01:15:29This is what victory tastes like.
01:15:32It's not bad.
01:15:34I need a second opinion.
01:15:38Well, I've got all night.
01:15:39And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:15:45Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:15:48You're already exceeding expectations.
01:15:51But I am very thorough.
01:15:53Okay.
01:15:53Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:16:05Besides being you, of course.
01:16:17Okay.
01:16:18What?
01:16:18I am very proud.
01:16:19Yeah.
01:16:27And I'll be sorry.
01:16:31Thank you very much.
01:16:32You're tudo thatiasis?
01:16:33Yeah.
01:16:34palabras
01:16:35You're done.
01:16:36I'm sorry.
01:16:37So let's do it again.
01:16:38I am...
01:16:39Not to be wrong.
01:16:40I was as mean.
01:16:40Oh, sorry.
01:16:42You're perfect.
01:16:42...
01:16:43How?
01:16:43And out...
01:16:43...
01:16:44...
