00:00:00Looking over as hospital administrator.

00:00:01New management, new standards.

00:00:03Sleeping after a shift?

00:00:05You are fired.

00:00:06I just worked all night.

00:00:07Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.

00:00:09He's the one.

00:00:10Did I fire you too already?

00:00:13Get your hand off my gun.

00:00:15We're done, Adrian.

00:00:17I need someone with a future.

00:00:19Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?

00:00:24This isn't about money.

00:00:25Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?

00:00:30These are his revolutionary procedures.

00:00:32With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.

00:00:35Please!

00:00:36Dad!

00:00:36Why are you just standing there?

00:00:38Do something!

00:00:38If you need help, just ask.

00:00:40All you have to do is admit what you did.

00:00:47A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city,

00:00:50sending a surge of critically injured patients flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency department.

00:00:56The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Vail's surgical team,

00:01:00their last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.

00:01:05Facials crashing!

00:01:06We need an attending surgeon now!

00:01:08All the hours are full.

00:01:09We got three more clinicals incoming.

00:01:11Sir, the patient trauma three is coding.

00:01:14I can't leave this one.

00:01:15Where's Dr. Stevens?

00:01:16We need another attending surgeon.

00:01:17Everyone else is in the U.R.

00:01:19Okay.

00:01:25Need a hand?

00:01:37A new hire.

00:01:39You just started this month.

00:01:41Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this!

00:01:45The patient's pressure is dropping.

00:01:46Then prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.

00:01:48Patient's yours.

00:01:49Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.

00:01:58Whipple?

00:01:59For trauma?

00:02:01That's insane.

00:02:02Trust me.

00:02:04Metz and bomb scissors.

00:02:06Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.

00:02:11That procedure will take hours.

00:02:13The patient won't survive.

00:02:15Bovey Cottery.

00:02:18Watch.

00:02:19He's doing it in half the normal time.

00:02:27The bleeding.

00:02:28It's under control.

00:02:30But how did he...

00:02:32Silk Sutra?

00:02:39Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.

00:02:46I've never seen anything like this.

00:02:48I'm almost done.

00:02:59This patient's going to make a full recovery.

00:03:01Jesus, Adrian.

00:03:10What you just pulled off is impossible.

00:03:13I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...

00:03:16That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.

00:03:20Where did you learn to operate like that?

00:03:21What you just did will go down in the history books.

00:03:24Wait.

00:03:25I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.

00:03:31Is that you?

00:03:32Is that you?

00:03:39Final suture.

00:03:41Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.

00:03:45Doctor.

00:03:46The nurses, they said you did it, and you... you actually did.

00:03:57Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.

00:04:02Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable, that she only had weeks to live, but you... you saved my Catherine.

00:04:11She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.

00:04:13Name your price, whatever it is.

00:04:15We need you at Vail.

00:04:17My hospital.

00:04:20Look, I'll explain later.

00:04:21Right now, we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.

00:04:25It's going to take hours.

00:04:27Y'all should go home.

00:04:28Get some rest.

00:04:30I'll take over from here.

00:04:32Okay.

00:04:34Good work, everyone.

00:04:34Good work.

00:04:41They're all stable.

00:05:08Every single one of them, stabilized.

00:05:11Oh, the sun's coming up.

00:05:17We must have operated all night.

00:05:19You're a machine.

00:05:21Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.

00:05:24All right.

00:05:25It's time for some much-needed shut-eye.

00:05:41Hey, you.

00:05:46Hey, yourself.

00:05:49I don't operate all night.

00:05:51Seemed every single patient in that pileup.

00:05:55All you did was extraordinary.

00:05:56How do you always know exactly what I needed?

00:06:01Because I know you.

00:06:03Better than anyone.

00:06:04Blueberry, your favorite?

00:06:13You remembered.

00:06:15Appreciate it.

00:06:17You know, I've been thinking lately about us.

00:06:21I know it's only been a month, but...

00:06:23It just feels different.

00:06:34It's the third time this week.

00:06:36Hospital food's better than someone else's.

00:06:38Hmm.

00:06:40So who's the smart-skinned guy?

00:06:42His surgical skills are unreal.

00:06:43Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.

00:06:46I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.

00:06:49With talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.

00:06:53What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?

00:07:02Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.

00:07:08Who is this guy?

00:07:11Preston Vale.

00:07:12Preston Vale's son.

00:07:13Harvard MBA.

00:07:14He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,

00:07:18who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.

00:07:22I'm sorry.

00:07:23Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons or med school dropouts?

00:07:29Hard to tell based on your behavior.

00:07:31Sir, about last...

00:07:32Save it.

00:07:34Harker.

00:07:36You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.

00:07:39You're fired.

00:07:41Clear out your office.

00:07:42New management means new standards.

00:07:45It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.

00:07:47Attention in everybody's attention now.

00:07:53If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.

00:07:59No complications, no deaths.

00:08:02This second-rate medicine stops right now.

00:08:07Who's he thinking is?

00:08:08Dr. House?

00:08:09What is this?

00:08:12Excellence in emergency medicine?

00:08:15Save your ego stroking for your own time.

00:08:19This is a hospital.

00:08:22We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.

00:08:25That was from my residency direction.

00:08:28Oh, cry me a river!

00:08:30Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients and a little less time collecting gold stars, you'd be a real doctor.

00:08:36You're fired.

00:08:37Excuse me?

00:08:38Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.

00:08:43Yes, sir.

00:08:45Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?

00:08:48That was good.

00:08:50Let's go.

00:08:50Okay.

00:08:55Well, well, well.

00:08:56What do we have here?

00:08:59Sleeping after a shift?

00:09:02Rise and shine, superstar.

00:09:08I order a wake-up call?

00:09:10No, you didn't.

00:09:11But here's one anyway.

00:09:13You are fired.

00:09:17Are you serious?

00:09:18You're firing me?

00:09:20Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?

00:09:24Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.

00:09:27Fiona, what's his position here?

00:09:29He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.

00:09:34What's he make?

00:09:36$700,000.

00:09:37That's standard for a trauma surgeon.

00:09:40$700?

00:09:41Are you insane?

00:09:43You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?

00:09:46This hospital is being scammed!

00:09:48I just worked all night, okay?

00:09:50I'm just taking a nap.

00:09:51Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?

00:09:54Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.

00:09:58What were you thinking, hiring this fraud?

00:10:01Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam?

00:10:06Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.

00:10:10My career comes first.

00:10:12Boy, bye.

00:10:13There must be some clerical error.

00:10:17His credentials.

00:10:19Other residents make a fraction of that salary.

00:10:22Fiona?

00:10:24Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.

00:10:32Clear out your office.

00:10:34Clear out your locker.

00:10:35Get the hell out of my hospital.

00:10:38This is a mistake, okay?

00:10:39You need to check the surgical lock.

00:10:41Oh, you don't get wear back to work.

00:10:43I see.

00:10:52Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.

00:10:54You don't understand.

00:10:56He's the one who-

00:10:57Didn't I fire you two already?

00:10:59Beat it.

00:11:00Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?

00:11:02Don't make this worse for yourselves.

00:11:13I understand.

00:11:24Hospital politics.

00:11:26I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.

00:11:30Meet me in the lobby after your shift.

00:11:33I'll be waiting.

00:11:33You care to explain that little exchange?

00:11:44The board won't like this.

00:11:51Four attendings dismissed in one day.

00:11:53Patient care will suffer.

00:11:55Fear is a weapon, Fiona.

00:11:57I intend to wield it.

00:11:58Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular?

00:12:03Your little scam artist situation-ship?

00:12:06No, Preston.

00:12:07He means nothing to me.

00:12:09Really.

00:12:10I have no personal stake in your staffing decision-

00:12:12Let's be clear about your future here.

00:12:15Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?

00:12:19Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks, including yours?

00:12:24The man who signs everyone's paychecks.

00:12:29Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.

00:12:42Hey, Dad.

00:12:43What's wrong?

00:12:44Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.

00:12:46She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.

00:12:51And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.

00:12:53Of course.

00:12:54What is it?

00:12:55That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?

00:12:58Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.

00:13:01Dr. Marksman?

00:13:02Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.

00:13:05Get out of my hospital.

00:13:07Christ.

00:13:08The resident I just fired?

00:13:11Preston?

00:13:12Are you there?

00:13:14Check the staff roster.

00:13:15Um, see if we have another Marksman working for us here.

00:13:20I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.

00:13:23He's a surgeon who saved your mother's life.

00:13:26And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.

00:13:30The hospital's reputation rests on his work.

00:13:33Ah, yes, I see now.

00:13:40There's another surgeon attending with that name.

00:13:43Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.

00:13:47Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.

00:13:51Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.

00:13:54Is this who you mean, Dad?

00:13:55That's our man.

00:13:56There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.

00:14:00Negligent, lazy, you name it.

00:14:03Do me a favor.

00:14:04Fire him.

00:14:06Already done, Dad.

00:14:07I fired his slacker ass this morning.

00:14:10Thank God.

00:14:11Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.

00:14:13Good work, son.

00:14:15I'll visit when your mother's stronger.

00:14:19Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?

00:14:21I got everything else under control.

00:14:29See?

00:14:30Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.

00:14:34Now, about your career trajectory.

00:14:38Mr. Bale, sir.

00:14:39Can't you see I'm busy?

00:14:41Multiple traumas incoming.

00:14:42The six-car pileup.

00:14:43You fired half our surgery team.

00:14:45What's your point?

00:14:46ER is crashing.

00:14:47We've no one left who can handle it.

00:14:49Give me the situation.

00:14:57Now.

00:14:58Six critical traumas.

00:14:59Three more incoming.

00:15:01Multiple crush injuries.

00:15:02Arterial bleeds, sir.

00:15:04We're losing patients.

00:15:06What are our options?

00:15:07There might be one solution.

00:15:09Well, spit it out.

00:15:10Dr. Marksman.

00:15:12He handled four critical traumas alone last night.

00:15:14If we can get him back here.

00:15:16Marksman.

00:15:17Right.

00:15:17That's the man we need.

00:15:18Fiona, call him.

00:15:19Which Dr. Marksman should I?

00:15:22The genius surgeon.

00:15:23The one I didn't fire.

00:15:24Keep up.

00:15:24What the hell?

00:15:31Where'd all this stuff go?

00:15:47Idiot left his research notes.

00:15:51Mmm.

00:15:52Modified trauma protocol.

00:15:53Wait.

00:15:56These are his revolutionary procedures.

00:16:00Oh, this is brilliant work.

00:16:06Hello?

00:16:07Dr. Marksman.

00:16:08Multiple critical traumas in the ER.

00:16:11Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis, there's a monster promotion waiting.

00:16:15I'm on my way.

00:16:16With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.

00:16:24They'll make me department head.

00:16:26And I can finally make seven figures.

00:16:34Well?

00:16:35Dr. Marksman's on his way.

00:16:37Thank God.

00:16:38Okay.

00:16:39Okay.

00:16:40Okay.

00:16:41Okay.

00:16:42Okay.

00:16:43Okay.

00:16:44Okay.

00:16:45Okay.

00:16:46Okay.

00:16:47How about your loyalty?

00:16:50Adrian meant nothing.

00:16:53I was using him to advance my career.

00:16:56You're my future.

00:16:57That's my girl.

00:16:58Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.

00:17:12To hell with this.

00:17:13I'm going out.

00:17:28Piece of shit!

00:17:33Get your hand off my girl!

00:17:37Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!

00:17:39You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?

00:17:44You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?

00:17:48I can choose who I want.

00:17:49And I don't want to disgrace surgeon with no future.

00:17:52You pathetic loser.

00:17:53We're done, Adrian.

00:18:11Ancient history.

00:18:13Are you serious?

00:18:15Just like that.

00:18:17Sorry that this bum wrinkled your jacket, sir.

00:18:20Why are you doing this, Fiona?

00:18:24Am I just a stepping stone to you?

00:18:26I need someone with a future.

00:18:28Not someone who sleeps while patients are dying!

00:18:35Keep it for when you get lonely and horny.

00:18:38It's the closest you'll ever come to the real thing again.

00:18:42Oh!

00:18:45Look at us, Adrian.

00:18:46I'm the future of Vail Hospital.

00:18:49And you?

00:18:52Just a slacker.

00:18:54And scrubs.

00:18:55You're washed up, marksman.

00:18:57Perhaps try nursing.

00:18:59I hear they're always hiring.

00:19:02Fiona, I met you here and it made me want to stay.

00:19:05I thought we could build a family together.

00:19:08Get over yourself.

00:19:10You think I'm going to stay with someone who lied about their credentials?

00:19:13President Vail would never have hired someone who sleeps during shifts.

00:19:21We're done.

00:19:22I'm not done.

00:19:24But when I am, there won't be a Vail Hospital left standing.

00:19:29You can count on that.

00:19:33No, no, no.

00:19:34Don't you move an inch right there, Adrian.

00:19:36Your troubles are just getting started.

00:19:38Who authorized you to be here?

00:19:45Mr. Vail, I'm pleased to announce that under my supervision, we've stabilized all the patients

00:19:49from the multi-car accident, and the situation is completely under control.

00:19:54You're Dr. Marksman.

00:19:56Ah, yes.

00:19:56The very same.

00:19:58My father mentioned your exceptional credentials.

00:20:01Harvard Medical, was it?

00:20:02These morons have no idea I'm taking credit for Adrian's revolutionary techniques.

00:20:09As long as the boss's son is impressed, I'll be chief of surgery by next month.

00:20:14Mr. Vail, I've identified who's responsible for all the issues in OR3 today.

00:20:19He was sleeping while a patient almost died on the table.

00:20:23Clear-cut medical malfeasance.

00:20:25Yes.

00:20:32Dr. Hart.

00:20:36Incredible news.

00:20:37Dr. Adrian Marksman, that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking, he's just been terminated

00:20:42from Vail Hospital.

00:20:45When?

00:20:46Less than an hour ago.

00:20:47Dismissed by President Vail's son.

00:20:51Huh?

00:20:52Amazing.

00:20:53I'd pay to see Nelson Vail's face when he discovers that his price surgeon was fired by

00:21:00his submental son.

00:21:01With, uh, respect, we're still establishing our reputation.

00:21:06Would someone of Marksman's caliber even consider joining us?

00:21:10I'll offer him whatever it takes.

00:21:12Full department autonomy.

00:21:15Research funding.

00:21:17State-of-the-art facilities.

00:21:19And if necessary, my personal involvement.

00:21:24His techniques could revolutionize surgical care.

00:21:28Have my car brought round.

00:21:29I'm going to Vail Hospital personally.

00:21:33And Adrian Marksman?

00:21:35He's leaving with me.

00:21:42Alphysits?

00:21:43What kind of delusional accusation is that?

00:21:46Don't insult our intelligence.

00:21:48A patient coded while you were off taking a nap.

00:21:50The timing couldn't possibly be coincidental.

00:21:52Yet you stand there denying it.

00:21:54This is crazy.

00:21:55You've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon.

00:21:58And when a complication occurs, which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership,

00:22:04you blame me.

00:22:07The collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad.

00:22:11If you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be, you would still have a job.

00:22:18I'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of Mr. Vail.

00:22:22Security, please detain him.

00:22:23What exactly are you accusing me of?

00:22:31Either confess to medical malfeasance, or they'll escort you to the police for criminal negligence.

00:22:39Adrian, I never realized you were capable of endangering patients.

00:22:43What other medical atrocities have you committed?

00:22:46You better confess now, or we'll do everything in our power to make sure you lose your medical license.

00:22:52Fine.

00:22:53Go ahead.

00:22:54Do your worst.

00:22:56Let's see if a single piece of evidence holds up in front of the medical board.

00:23:01You really underestimate my family's influence, don't you?

00:23:06Don't you realize that Mr. Vail here can end your entire career with one phone call?

00:23:11Sir, I strongly recommend that we make an example out of him.

00:23:14After all, he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes.

00:23:17Preston, you can't let him walk away after this.

00:23:20Not after what he did to our patients.

00:23:22I'm contacting the medical board right now.

00:23:26As of this moment, Dr. Adrian Marksman is blacklisted from Vail Hospital and every medical institute in the country.

00:23:33Plans in motion, Adrian.

00:23:35Do you know what that means?

00:23:37It means that you will never practice medicine in this country again.

00:23:41I have one question before I go.

00:23:46Does your father know you fired me?

00:23:49My father's the one who asked me to fire you, you dipshit.

00:23:54You thought you were some brilliant surgical god, didn't you?

00:23:58Security, remove this criminal from hospital property immediately.

00:24:02Immediately.

00:24:02Yes, doctor.

00:24:04Right away, sir.

00:24:07That's quite enough.

00:24:09Let him go.

00:24:22Dr. Marksman is about to accept the position as chief of surgical innovation at Hart Medical Center.

00:24:30I know you.

00:24:33You're Vivian Hart, the surgical upstart from that medical clinic across town.

00:24:38That's Dr. Vivian Hart to you, Mr. Vail.

00:24:43Vivian?

00:24:43I haven't seen you since the John Hopkins Symposium like four or five years ago.

00:24:48What are you doing here?

00:24:49Well, I'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country, of course.

00:24:52Wait, are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value?

00:24:59He was sleeping during rounds.

00:25:01Is this how Vail Hospital discards its exceptional talent?

00:25:06Your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence, not petty politics.

00:25:13Dr. Hart, with all due respect...

00:25:16This is a conversation between medical directors.

00:25:18Someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence.

00:25:21Dr. Hart, I must inform you that Dr. Marksman represents a serious liability.

00:25:27He compromised patient safety and...

00:25:30I don't believe I requested your medical opinion, Dr...

00:25:33Marksman.

00:25:34David Marksman.

00:25:35I have neither time nor interest in your assessment.

00:25:40After he decided to go to sleep, we had a critical surgical complication.

00:25:45His negligence led to the problem.

00:25:47His actions not only endangered patients, it compromised my hospital's reputation.

00:25:53Are you really willing to defend someone who violates the Hippocratic Oath?

00:25:58Did you actually consult with your father before dismissing Dr. Marksman?

00:26:03Of course I consulted my father.

00:26:06He's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation.

00:26:12Dangerous shortcuts?

00:26:13Is that what President Vail really said?

00:26:17His exact words were, remove him at first opportunity.

00:26:21President Vail was the one that recruited me.

00:26:22This makes absolutely no sense.

00:26:24Please, Adrian.

00:26:25The President wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you.

00:26:30Those gala invitations were professional courtesy, not genuine respect.

00:26:35Well, if that's the way things work at Vail, I have nothing more to contribute.

00:26:39To any of you.

00:26:40Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Hart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?

00:26:47Well, I've...

00:26:48Full department autonomy, protected research time, a surgical fellowship in your name,

00:26:54and a seven-figure salary package.

00:26:57Thank you very much.

00:27:28And cash.

00:27:29Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.

00:27:34Hopefully this shows you.

00:27:36I mean what I say.

00:27:41Dr. Hart.

00:27:43Chief of surgery?

00:27:47You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?

00:27:52Dr. Hart.

00:27:53Have you completely lost your medical judgment, or are you on drugs?

00:27:57This is absurd.

00:27:59He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.

00:28:01And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?

00:28:05The medical board should review your hiring practices.

00:28:12Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.

00:28:16This isn't about money.

00:28:17Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.

00:28:23She's offering herself up to him.

00:28:25She can't do that.

00:28:27Are you a doctor or a call girl?

00:28:30At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves,

00:28:34including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.

00:28:41And I do mean anything, Dr. Marksman.

00:28:45Dr. Hart.

00:28:47For the sake of your own reputation, you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing

00:28:52has a documented history of negligence.

00:28:55My father confirmed it himself.

00:28:57Is that precisely what Nelson Vail told you?

00:29:00His exact words.

00:29:03Negligence, surgeon.

00:29:05What are those?

00:29:08Personal gifts from your father?

00:29:12My fellowship offer?

00:29:15My personal research lab?

00:29:17My surgical team?

00:29:18I'm leaving it all behind.

00:29:22You can tell President Vail that as of this moment,

00:29:24Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn

00:29:27from Vail Hospital and all of its affiliated institutions.

00:29:32You know what?

00:29:32Spare us the theatrics, Adrienne.

00:29:34You never deserved those privileges in the first place.

00:29:37The medical board is going to see that justice is done.

00:29:41Oh, your stupidity.

00:29:44It's just astonishing.

00:29:46You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.

00:29:50This man is a life-saving artist.

00:29:54Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Vail Hospital.

00:30:02Yeah, look, I'll be real.

00:30:04We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.

00:30:06Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.

00:30:09Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.

00:30:13Look at yourself, Adrienne.

00:30:17Offering your skills to a struggling clinic.

00:30:20How pathetically desperate.

00:30:22Oh, a backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.

00:30:29How dare you talk to me like that!

00:30:32Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation.

00:30:37As the responsible party, I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals.

00:30:44And with an explanation to every affected Vail Hospital patient.

00:30:49Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently.

00:30:55That accusation isn't just basis.

00:30:57It's absurd.

00:30:58What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?

00:31:01You've got no choice but to sign this confession.

00:31:04Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.

00:31:06If you insist on pursuing this vendetta, have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.

00:31:12We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.

00:31:17If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that I've got.

00:31:25Let's go.

00:31:25One more second and this cesspool is going to make me physically ill.

00:31:38Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those secondary practitioners.

00:31:44David, you've proven your loyalty.

00:31:47The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.

00:31:51This is extraordinary.

00:31:55I, uh, I, I am honored beyond words.

00:32:00Don't forget about me, Preston.

00:32:03Don't worry, babe.

00:32:04You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.

00:32:09How exciting.

00:32:11Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.

00:32:17Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.

00:32:19Six critical patients incoming.

00:32:21Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.

00:32:23Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.

00:32:25Shit, I'm screwed.

00:32:26Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.

00:32:31If Preston finds out, I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.

00:32:34I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.

00:32:41These techniques are revolutionary.

00:32:43I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.

00:32:46It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.

00:32:48You've obviously got your own methodology.

00:32:51No need to bore me with the specifics.

00:32:53I trust your brilliance.

00:32:54Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.

00:32:56With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters.

00:33:00Hospital expansion.

00:33:01Again, sir, I'm deeply honored.

00:33:12Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.

00:33:15Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.

00:33:22Glad you're feeling better, honey.

00:33:24Yeah.

00:33:25Oh.

00:33:25Sorry.

00:33:27Who's this?

00:33:31Nelson Vail speaking.

00:33:32President Vail.

00:33:34Dr. Vivian Hart here.

00:33:35I am calling to let you know that as of this morning,

00:33:39Hart Medical Center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena.

00:33:43Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.

00:33:48Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?

00:33:50This is merely a professional courtesy call, not an invitation for debate.

00:33:55Now, just...

00:33:57What is that conniving bitch plotting?

00:34:04She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.

00:34:08Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning?

00:34:17Unless...

00:34:18Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.

00:34:25Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.

00:34:28Dad, relax.

00:34:30I fired the other one.

00:34:31That incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.

00:34:34Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.

00:34:42Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.

00:34:46There's no way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.

00:34:51I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance.

00:34:55But in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.

00:34:59So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?

00:35:02She thinks she's hired the genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.

00:35:07That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.

00:35:09Impressive, son.

00:35:11You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.

00:35:14I've been waiting to see out of you.

00:35:16I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.

00:35:20Dad, this is everything I've worked for.

00:35:26We'll get to work immediately.

00:35:28We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.

00:35:35Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.

00:35:39I won't let you down.

00:35:42Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.

00:35:46Preston only got his MBA last year.

00:35:48Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?

00:35:53I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.

00:35:58Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.

00:36:03You mean the surgeon that saved my life?

00:36:05Dr. Adrian Marksman.

00:36:07Exactly.

00:36:08And all I need to do is stay hands-off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.

00:36:18As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.

00:36:25Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.

00:36:33And what we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.

00:36:47So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?

00:36:53It's not bad.

00:36:55It's a small team, but they're talented.

00:36:57What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.

00:37:00It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.

00:37:06You too.

00:37:08We need to expand.

00:37:10It's too small for what I'm planning.

00:37:13Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.

00:37:22We have all the angles figured out, don't you?

00:37:25And I always find the best one.

00:37:26Yeah.

00:37:30I'm going to start recruiting.

00:37:38Good.

00:37:40The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership becomes.

00:37:45This better be good.

00:38:00Mr. Vail, you wanted to see me?

00:38:03My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.

00:38:12Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.

00:38:17Mr. Vail, I, uh...

00:38:19Is there an issue with that?

00:38:21No, absolutely not.

00:38:22The budget for innovation is astronomical, and President Vail has already handed control to his son?

00:38:30If I oversee these procedures, I could divert significant resources to my personal research.

00:38:36Mr. Vail, you can trust me completely.

00:38:39I am precisely the right man for the job.

00:38:44Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.

00:38:46Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously.

00:38:49The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.

00:38:51What? They both resigned at once? What was their explanation?

00:38:54They refused to disclose their reasons.

00:38:56But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vail physician, along with the three other surgeons you fired before.

00:39:01Former physician Adrian Marksman, this has his saboteur signature all over it.

00:39:06President, what's our contingency plan?

00:39:08The surgical department is severely understaffed.

00:39:11If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.

00:39:13Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.

00:39:16You still have me.

00:39:19I can rebuild this department.

00:39:21Ah, yes.

00:39:23With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.

00:39:26Exactly.

00:39:27So we lost some second-rate talent.

00:39:30Let him go.

00:39:32I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai.

00:39:35And UCLA.

00:39:37Good work, Marksman.

00:39:39This is working out perfectly.

00:39:44Now I can install my own allies in key positions.

00:39:47Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.

00:40:09It's an hour to meet you, Dr. Hart.

00:40:19This is Dr. Parker here.

00:40:21He's a triple board certified surgeon.

00:40:23And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.

00:40:26This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.

00:40:30All consummate professionals.

00:40:33My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.

00:40:34With this surgical team, Hart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.

00:40:44Actually, the whole world.

00:40:46Where are you going to begin, Dr. Hart?

00:40:48Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.

00:40:52I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.

00:40:59We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.

00:41:04Have no fear, Dr. Hart.

00:41:06With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.

00:41:11Yes, but Vail has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.

00:41:17Yeah, about that.

00:41:19It's a preliminary version.

00:41:20If they continue to develop this approach without modification...

00:41:23Then what?

00:41:24A lot of deaths.

00:41:26A lot of lawsuits.

00:41:27A lot of patients could be harmed.

00:41:29Or worse, these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.

00:41:35Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training.

00:41:39Without that foundation...

00:41:41We're talking about serious complications.

00:41:44Preventable harm.

00:41:45Our first priority has to be patient safety.

00:41:48We need to perfect these procedures.

00:41:50And then we can find a way to prevent Vail from continuing with the flawed protocols.

00:41:55Exactly.

00:41:55It's not about competition or pride.

00:41:57It's about saving lives.

00:42:01We're using our experience with the trial procedures I did at Vail to develop next-generation surgical techniques eliminating all the previous complications and inefficiencies.

00:42:12Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new, we'll maintain our significant advantage.

00:42:22And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols, rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.

00:42:29I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.

00:42:32Remember this moment.

00:42:33In this battle for medical supremacy, Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.

00:42:38It's 3 a.m.

00:42:47I lost track of time again.

00:42:54Viv, you surprised me.

00:42:58Looks like you could use a nice rub.

00:43:01Do you mind?

00:43:02No.

00:43:03I mean, yeah.

00:43:07Will you give all your surgeons massages?

00:43:11Only the ones I really, really like.

00:43:18You really, really like me?

00:43:21Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.

00:43:25Nothing's changed.

00:43:27You were our most brilliant resident in the program.

00:43:30I never imagined someone like you would like me.

00:43:32There was never anyone else that got my attention.

00:43:36Only you.

00:43:39But you were completely oblivious.

00:43:41And then you just vanished from the program.

00:43:45Well, I left to join the Experimental Surgical Fellowship in Switzerland.

00:43:49I know.

00:43:52Your talent was extraordinary even then.

00:43:54Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.

00:44:00You know, when I established Heart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.

00:44:06But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Vale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.

00:44:14I understand now.

00:44:16So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?

00:44:29We're the boss.

00:44:31That's right.

00:44:32And as your boss, I say, come home with me.

00:44:37Tonight?

00:44:38You lost everything when Preston fired you.

00:44:41Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital-subsidized apartment.

00:44:50You have literally nowhere else to go tonight.

00:44:54Come with me.

00:44:57Where?

00:44:58My place.

00:45:04Hmm.

00:45:08All right.

00:45:09I'll admit it.

00:45:11That was the best meal I've had in months.

00:45:13Careful, Dr. Marksman.

00:45:15I might start thinking you're easy to please.

00:45:18That just depends on the company.

00:45:20Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.

00:45:24Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.

00:45:29Are you sure about that?

00:45:30We already work late hours.

00:45:33Living together could get complicated.

00:45:37Well, I like complicated.

00:45:39Keeps things interesting.

00:45:42And where exactly will I be sleeping?

00:45:45Well, my master suite has a California cake.

00:45:56Plenty of room.

00:45:58If things ever need to get more collaborative.

00:46:04Really?

00:46:06Relax.

00:46:07I'm only teasing.

00:46:09Tonight, at least.

00:46:12Come on.

00:46:13Come on.

00:46:15I'll show you your room.

00:46:19Unless you'd rather have a nightcap.

00:46:22And mine.

00:46:28Things could get dangerous.

00:46:35Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?

00:46:37You are completely worthless as surgeons.

00:46:44Dr. Marksman, the experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.

00:46:50We need at least six months to properly master.

00:46:54Six months?

00:46:55You have 72 hours.

00:46:57And I expect hourly updates on my desk.

00:47:00Sir, brushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications.

00:47:06Three days.

00:47:07Then you don't get one hour more.

00:47:10Go.

00:47:11Go.

00:47:15Report, Dr. Marksman.

00:47:17What's our status?

00:47:18Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.

00:47:20We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.

00:47:24That's exactly what I wanted to hear.

00:47:26I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.

00:47:34Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.

00:47:38Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.

00:47:40Outstanding.

00:47:41When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.

00:47:45Your father must be so proud of you.

00:47:48Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.

00:47:49I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.

00:47:54This is my shot.

00:47:56Why settle for chief of surgery?

00:47:57With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.

00:48:02Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators such as yourself.

00:48:11I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more effectively throughout the entire hospital.

00:48:18If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.

00:48:23Truly, that's...

00:48:25I am profoundly grateful, sir.

00:48:29You're finally awake.

00:48:53You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.

00:48:55All right.

00:48:58Ooh, breakfast.

00:48:59Looks good.

00:49:03When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.

00:49:07Sound good?

00:49:08Yes.

00:49:09Absolutely.

00:49:10Good.

00:49:12Get it up and running, and there may be a special bonus waiting for you.

00:49:20Extra special.

00:49:21Okay.

00:49:25Okay, team.

00:49:31We're approaching a critical phase of our program development.

00:49:34We have groundbreaking procedures that we need to perfect in very little time.

00:49:38So, let's get to it.

00:49:40Let's start revolutionizing medicine.

00:49:42I have excellent news for all of you.

00:49:44I've just finalized arrangements with the board,

00:49:46and upon successful implementation of our surgical innovations,

00:49:52each of you will receive a fully funded medical mission trip anywhere in the world that you choose to share your expertise.

00:49:58And when the time comes that our procedures receive national certification,

00:50:04every surgeon on this team will be gifted a percentage of the royalties from any techniques we patent.

00:50:10At a heart medical center, our surgeons are the lifeblood of our institution,

00:50:18and you will be compensated accordingly.

00:50:23Dr. Hart, we are fully committed to making this surgical program a success.

00:50:28Absolutely.

00:50:28You'll be seeing progress ASAP.

00:50:31Vail Hospital won't know what hit him.

00:50:33With Adrian leading us, victory is guaranteed.

00:50:35Hard is best!

00:50:37Hard is best!

00:50:38Hard is best!

00:50:39Hard is best!

00:50:40Hard is best!

00:50:41Good.

00:50:42We're running wild hearts on fire.

00:50:46Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh.

00:50:49We're chasing dreams and climbing higher.

00:50:53Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh.

00:50:55Can't always clap.

00:50:57Ready to stay.

00:50:58Can't always clap.

00:51:00Good morning on the way.

00:51:12You always this disciplined?

00:51:15Or are you just trying to impress me?

00:51:18If I was trying to impress you, you even know.

00:51:21Midnight meetings.

00:51:24Long hours.

00:51:26This work ethic of yours.

00:51:30It's a little dangerous.

00:51:34That's what Vail used to say about me.

00:51:37Then they fired me.

00:51:41Then they were fools.

00:51:44You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.

00:51:48You know that, right?

00:51:54You trying to motivate me again?

00:51:55I don't try.

00:52:01I do.

00:52:04Well, don't work too late.

00:52:10You're no good to me, burnt out.

00:52:12The incompetence is staggering.

00:52:25Yeah, you too are in way over your heads.

00:52:29Do you really think that this is acceptable?

00:52:32I give you one simple task and you screw it up.

00:52:34How the hell did either of you even finish residency?

00:52:39Vail General Hospital is the gold standard and you two are just standing around like clueless

00:52:45little interns.

00:52:46If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow, you're both gone.

00:52:50Is that clear?

00:52:52Yes, sir.

00:52:52Do you think this is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?

00:52:58Go.

00:53:05Mr. Vail, what a surprise.

00:53:08Cut the bullshit, Marksman.

00:53:11Are we on schedule or not?

00:53:13Of course.

00:53:14We're just refining the final stages.

00:53:18Yeah, everything is under control.

00:53:20Good.

00:53:22But it's a problem.

00:53:22I expect to hear it from you.

00:53:23No cover-ups.

00:53:25Of course, sir.

00:53:28Mr. Vail.

00:53:29Not now.

00:53:30Go get me the latest performance reports.

00:53:36It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold on our lovely administrator here.

00:53:42Don't worry.

00:53:43When Preston makes me chief medical officer, I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.

00:53:49I respect the winning team, Dr. Marksman.

00:53:59Today, Vail Hospital officially launched its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.

00:54:05This cutting-edge approach to surgical care is being closely watched by the medical industry,

00:54:11especially as Heart Medical's competing program was released on the same day.

00:54:15The question now is, who will define the future of surgery?

00:54:20Relax, Mr. Vail.

00:54:22Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.

00:54:25I hope you're right.

00:54:27For your sake.

00:54:29Didn't you say that, uh, if the rollout went well, that you'd make me chief medical officer?

00:54:37It's not a success.

00:54:39Yet.

00:54:42Enjoy tonight's launch party.

00:54:44Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical,

00:54:47it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate for a long time.

00:54:49Dr. Hurt, we, um, have a problem.

00:55:05Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.

00:55:08That soon?

00:55:09They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.

00:55:12It's a good thing we're ahead of...

00:55:17You're saying we're ready?

00:55:20Why would I lie?

00:55:21We've been tracking Vail's every move.

00:55:24Let him celebrate.

00:55:25It's just gonna backfire.

00:55:27How exactly does that work in our favor?

00:55:30Viv, do you remember what I told you when you first brought me here?

00:55:35Preston Vail's rushing this.

00:55:37He's desperate to beat us to the market.

00:55:39And?

00:55:40Their model's flawed.

00:55:41If they keep moving forward without realizing their structural failure and their approach,

00:55:46we won't have to lift a damn finger.

00:55:49And what about when it falls apart?

00:55:51Then Heart Medical takes over as the future of modern surgery.

00:55:55So you're saying that Vail Hospital has been refining the prototype surgical method that you designed?

00:56:00It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.

00:56:03They're using an early draft, full of mistakes that I won't make again.

00:56:08They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.

00:56:11That actually makes perfect sense.

00:56:15Which means we've already won.

00:56:18Well, this is a big day for us.

00:56:20We should celebrate.

00:56:21What do you have in mind?

00:56:23Drinks?

00:56:23Not quite.

00:56:25You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.

00:56:28What?

00:56:29Why?

00:56:31Let me worry about that.

00:56:32In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout.

00:56:34Finish whatever procedures you need to.

00:56:37And meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. sharp.

00:56:39Preston, we've been through so much together.

00:56:56I know where I'm headed in life, and I know who I want by my side.

00:57:02Tonight, at this launch party, celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,

00:57:08isn't it the perfect moment to ask,

00:57:11will you marry me?

00:57:12You should be fun.

00:57:21Absolutely.

00:57:23You really know how to take care of your staff, Mr. Vail.

00:57:25Oh, stop it.

00:57:27Too bad you're taken.

00:57:28Yeah, yeah, what a shame.

00:57:30Where the fuck is Fiona?

00:57:32Told her meet me out here so we can go to this party together.

00:57:35Forget about her.

00:57:36She's just social climbing trash anyways.

00:57:38We'll show you a better time.

00:57:40Hmm.

00:57:40Now that's an offer I can't refuse.

00:57:45Let's go.

00:57:45Fiona who?

00:57:49Oh, you ladies are crazy.

00:57:52Let me get this to her.

00:57:52The number you have dialed is unavailable.

00:58:16Please try again later.

00:58:17It's 20 in one day.

00:58:43All clean, all stable.

00:58:46The experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.

00:58:49You did it.

00:58:51No.

00:58:52We did it.

00:58:55Dr. Marksman, you have to get to Vail's launch party.

00:58:58Pronto.

00:58:59You're already late.

00:59:00I need to change that.

00:59:01You don't have time.

00:59:02Where's Vivian?

00:59:05Taking care of something.

00:59:06She said it's really important that you be there,

00:59:08and she'll meet you as soon as she can.

00:59:12Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vail Hospital's revolutionary surgical program.

00:59:16What the fuck?

00:59:32You're my date, and you're wasted.

00:59:35I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.

00:59:37Yeah.

00:59:38God knows why I chose you, but I did.

00:59:40So if you want to keep your job and your status sober up, for God's sakes.

01:00:03Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?

01:00:06It's giving orderly sheep.

01:00:10Maybe he's here to bust tables.

01:00:15What are you doing at our launch party?

01:00:16You weren't invited.

01:00:17You so sure about that?

01:00:19I mean, look at you.

01:00:20This is a black tie.

01:00:21I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.

01:00:26Look who crawled in from the gutter.

01:00:29The found surgeon.

01:00:31The fraud.

01:00:32The nobody.

01:00:34Showed to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?

01:00:37Thought I told the security to keep out the criminals in the low lives.

01:00:41Guess I need to fire them, too.

01:00:42Pardon me.

01:00:43I just came straight from surgery.

01:00:45Because some of us here are real surgeons.

01:00:47What are you trying to say?

01:00:49I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.

01:00:57I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.

01:01:00I got some nerve talking to my man, Marksman, like that.

01:01:05The genius like him leading our surgical team?

01:01:08You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.

01:01:10Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.

01:01:12When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.

01:01:20What are you talking about?

01:01:22Identity theft?

01:01:24Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?

01:01:26Yours?

01:01:26Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.

01:01:30If you don't got it, at least act like you do.

01:01:34Speaking from experience.

01:01:37Look around you.

01:01:39This is the elite among the elite.

01:01:41The best of the best in the medical field.

01:01:44Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.

01:01:48Good.

01:01:49I'm glad.

01:01:50Because you're all beneath me.

01:01:51Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?

01:01:55That's enough.

01:01:56Guards!

01:01:58This former employee's threatening us.

01:02:00Kick him out!

01:02:02Touch me and you'll regret it.

01:02:06I'm here tonight with a very important guest.

01:02:09What are you dumbasses doing?

01:02:11Grab him!

01:02:21What the hell is this?

01:02:30Dad.

01:02:31Relax.

01:02:31I, uh...

01:02:32Relax?

01:02:34This twat came in uninvited.

01:02:36I was just kicking him out.

01:02:37Guards!

01:02:37Remove him immediately.

01:02:38President Vale, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.

01:02:41You get out of my way!

01:02:43Dad, what are you doing?

01:02:44This is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...

01:02:49You are such a fool!

01:02:52Dad!

01:02:53What are you...

01:02:54What are you doing?

01:02:55Open your eyes, Preston.

01:02:57This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...

01:03:01You are a...

01:03:03Disgraced!

01:03:05Dad!

01:03:07My hospital meant something and...

01:03:09You turned it into a...

01:03:11Into a...

01:03:12Dad!

01:03:15Dad!

01:03:19Dad!

01:03:22President Vale, fuck away from my dad!

01:03:25Are you out of your mind?

01:03:26He is the best surgeon in this room!

01:03:28Oh, yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.

01:03:30I'll die before I trust you two.

01:03:32Somebody get me a real doctor!

01:03:34David!

01:03:35David!

01:03:36Do something!

01:03:36It's cold!

01:03:37It's cold!

01:03:41Can't think of what to do next?

01:03:44Blanking?

01:03:45Can't think of a diagnosis?

01:03:46Shut up!

01:03:47Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?

01:03:50This is ridiculous!

01:03:51I thought this David guy was a genius!

01:03:54Why are you just standing there?

01:03:55Do something!

01:03:56Uh...

01:03:57What's the matter, David?

01:03:59If you need help, just ask.

01:04:02All you have to do is admit what you did.

01:04:04Right here.

01:04:05Right now.

01:04:06I can't blow my cover, but...

01:04:09What if I kill him?

01:04:11I don't know anything about surgeries.

01:04:14I don't even know what's wrong with them.

01:04:16I did medical school on Zoom.

01:04:18David, this is a matter of life and death.

01:04:22Let it go!

01:04:25I...

01:04:26I can't.

01:04:29I can't do this.

01:04:32Okay, I can't.

01:04:34I can't do this.

01:04:35I can't do this without my notebook.

01:04:39That's my surgical notebook.

01:04:44He stole it from me.

01:04:52Okay, okay.

01:04:54I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.

01:04:57I can't do this without a glass of water.

01:04:59Okay.

01:05:00Yeah.

01:05:01I got it, I got it.

01:05:03Here, take it, take it, take it.

01:05:05Okay.

01:05:06All right, hold his head.

01:05:07Good.

01:05:08Tilt it back and apply pressure here.

01:05:12Okay.

01:05:23Okay.

01:05:26Great.

01:05:27Oh, thank God.

01:05:41Oh, that's my guy.

01:05:43Surgical genius.

01:05:45That's how Val makes history.

01:05:47Somebody get this man a medal.

01:05:50Or at least a new department.

01:05:51If you still want that chief medical officer position,

01:05:54say the word.

01:05:55Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?

01:06:00That maneuver.

01:06:02That notebook.

01:06:03It's mine.

01:06:04Then tell them.

01:06:09Where is he going?

01:06:10Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program

01:06:13at another fake hospital.

01:06:14Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?

01:06:18Say, hey, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?

01:06:20That procedure David used?

01:06:26I invented it.

01:06:28What kind of crack are you smoking?

01:06:31He's delusional.

01:06:33Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.

01:06:36The notebook he used to save your father.

01:06:38That's mine.

01:06:39That's mine.

01:06:40My handwriting.

01:06:42My theories.

01:06:44You're just pissed because he did what you couldn't.

01:06:47I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.

01:06:51And when it fails,

01:06:53and it will,

01:06:56you're not the ones that'll pay for it.

01:06:59The patients will.

01:07:00You can't prove that.

01:07:02Not yet.

01:07:03But you can't fake medicine.

01:07:06Medicine and science always tell the truth.

01:07:13Our three's vitals just dropped.

01:07:14We've got uncontrolled bleeding.

01:07:16Second patient today.

01:07:17Same issue.

01:07:18Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.

01:07:21These techniques aren't viable.

01:07:22The veil method doesn't hold under stress.

01:07:25I mean, come on.

01:07:26Tonight proves it.

01:07:28We're ahead of every surgical institute

01:07:29in the country.

01:07:39I'll be right back.

01:07:40Just coordinating with the team.

01:07:44Talk to me.

01:07:46The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again.

01:07:48This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.

01:07:53Use the compression step.

01:07:55That only works in controlled scenarios.

01:07:57We told you these procedures were fully tested.

01:08:00Look, just follow the notes.

01:08:06I designed those techniques for 101 guidance.

01:08:09Not mass implementation.

01:08:11Without calibration.

01:08:13It's unstable.

01:08:14It's dangerous.

01:08:15They tried to commercialize your success without you.

01:08:19Now people are paying for it.

01:08:20I'm ready for it.

01:08:22All good?

01:08:23Of course.

01:08:24Just routine coordination.

01:08:26Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.

01:08:30Your surgical program is failing.

01:08:32And patients are suffering.

01:08:34You've been out of the field for months.

01:08:36You wouldn't know?

01:08:36Yeah, I would know.

01:08:38Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.

01:08:41And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.

01:08:46Bullshit.

01:08:53Oh yes, this is Dr. Marksman.

01:08:54Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.

01:08:59Okay, listen very carefully.

01:09:02Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.

01:09:10No, 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.

01:09:24Yes.

01:09:26Yes.

01:09:29How do we even know he made a phone call?

01:09:32His whole thing is performance, a charade.

01:09:35You stole his methods.

01:09:36This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.

01:09:42Uh, that's a lie.

01:09:44Then prove me wrong.

01:09:45Show them all a technique that I didn't create.

01:09:50Why would we believe anything he says?

01:09:53He was fired.

01:09:54He will get it.

01:09:55You're right, I was fired.

01:09:56And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.

01:10:02You know what?

01:10:03This is pathetic.

01:10:04He's just jealous.

01:10:05He missed his shot.

01:10:07Is that what you told yourself?

01:10:09When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?

01:10:12Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.

01:10:16I think it's exactly the time and place.

01:10:19I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.

01:10:33And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coating patients.

01:10:41Adrian just cleaned up your mess.

01:10:43Dad, you took this good man's techniques that weren't ready and you fired him.

01:10:49The one person who could make them safe.

01:10:53Dad, you don't see the full picture here.

01:10:56Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.

01:10:59This hospital was built on trust and integrity and you've disgraced them both.

01:11:04Your father nearly died because of your ego.

01:11:08Because of his lies.

01:11:12You saved me.

01:11:14You saved Nelson.

01:11:15And now you can save Vale.

01:11:18I tried to warn you all.

01:11:20No one listened.

01:11:21They're listening now.

01:11:23You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two.

01:11:28And probably even more than me.

01:11:30It was a mistake to let you go.

01:11:34Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.

01:11:39They weren't ready.

01:11:41They needed supervision.

01:11:43Precision.

01:11:44Development.

01:11:45Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast track them for glory.

01:11:49Oh, you can't prove that.

01:11:52Security footage.

01:11:56Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.

01:12:00Already submitted to the board.

01:12:03I built on what he started.

01:12:06Okay?

01:12:07I didn't steal.

01:12:09I enhanced it.

01:12:10Then why were patients about to die?

01:12:14You falsified rollout readiness?

01:12:16He did more than that.

01:12:18He put lives at risk.

01:12:20To prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.

01:12:24We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.

01:12:27This is absurd.

01:12:28This was supposed to be our night.

01:12:31Oh, it's your night.

01:12:33It's just not the way you thought it'd be.

01:12:35You lied to me.

01:12:37I didn't lie.

01:12:38I simplified the truth.

01:12:40Simplify?

01:12:41You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.

01:12:46You nearly killed the president of the hospital.

01:12:48You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready?

01:12:52That's malpractice.

01:12:54They worked.

01:12:55Nelson's alive.

01:12:56Look, the patients, they're alive.

01:12:58Yeah, because of me.

01:12:59Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.

01:13:05Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.

01:13:07Wait, these really are your techniques.

01:13:10I tested them for years.

01:13:11It was never meant for mass rollout.

01:13:15Not without training.

01:13:17You're rewriting history?

01:13:19No, you tried to erase him from it.

01:13:21Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.

01:13:26And without him, it won't.

01:13:28This is absurd!

01:13:30You're siding with this disgraced former resident?

01:13:33He's not disgraced, son.

01:13:35You are.

01:13:37You hijacked a program you didn't understand.

01:13:40And then when your ego wasn't enough, you propped up this fraud.

01:13:47Taking his side, Dad?

01:13:49I'm your son.

01:13:51I'm taking the side of truth.

01:13:54And so will the board.

01:13:55We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.

01:13:58Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.

01:14:03Suspended?

01:14:04Oh, no, no, you can't do that.

01:14:05You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.

01:14:08We understand the liability.

01:14:09That's enough.

01:14:12Mr. Preston Vale, Dr. David Marksman, come with us.

01:14:18Dad, you're not going to let them drag me out like this.

01:14:20I'm your son.

01:14:21No, don't you touch me.

01:14:23You're not a child.

01:14:24Hey, Dad!

01:14:25I didn't decide to build that.

01:14:26You're not my responsibility.

01:14:41Trin, please.

01:14:42I made a mistake.

01:14:44I see that now.

01:14:45I should have believed in you.

01:14:46I should have stood by you.

01:14:49You were right about everything.

01:14:53Just give me a second chance.

01:14:55Please, please.

01:14:57I still love you.

01:15:01Love?

01:15:01You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.

01:15:05You don't understand.

01:15:07I thought he was finished.

01:15:10I thought he had nothing left.

01:15:11So you sold him out.

01:15:13Mocked him.

01:15:15Over and over again.

01:15:17I was scared.

01:15:18I didn't know what to do.

01:15:20Oh, you knew.

01:15:21You just didn't care.

01:15:23Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.

01:15:27Please.

01:15:29Say something.

01:15:32Anything.

01:15:33You had your chance, Fiona.

01:15:35And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.

01:15:39You always belonged in my operating room.

01:15:50And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.

01:15:56The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.

01:16:01And David will never go near another patient again.

01:16:05We're rebuilding.

01:16:07And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.

01:16:12I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.

01:16:16You had your chance, too.

01:16:18I'm not the same man that you fired.

01:16:21Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.

01:16:25Adrian 2.0.

01:16:27I'm not coming back.

01:16:30You're choosing her?

01:16:32Our rival?

01:16:34You arrogant little ingrate.

01:16:36I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.

01:16:40Just typical.

01:16:42Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?

01:16:48She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.

01:16:52Oh, projecting much, Nelson.

01:16:55Get me out of here.

01:16:57Now!

01:16:58Now!

01:16:58Karma has good timing.

01:17:19Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.

01:17:21We have lives to save.

01:17:24Hey!

01:17:25Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.

01:17:30I still owe you that extra special bonus.

01:17:35Now?

01:17:36We'll just spend a time like the present.

01:17:38This is what victory tastes like.

01:17:49It's not bad.

01:17:50I need a second opinion.

01:17:51Well, I've got all night.

01:17:56And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.

01:18:02Should I be afraid of a performance review?

01:18:05You're already exceeding expectations.

01:18:08But I am very thorough.

01:18:10Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.

01:18:22Besides meeting you, of course.

01:18:23Yes.

01:18:30Yes.

01:18:40You're not leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this room until you're leaving this
