00:00Tell me, surgeon, now!
00:01The patient will survive.
00:02Watch.
00:03Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency
00:05isn't ready for a reliable trauma like this?
00:07This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:09What you just did will go down in the history box.
00:12Who is this guy?
00:13He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:15New management, new standards.
00:17Sleeping after a shift?
00:18You are fired.
00:19I just worked all night.
00:21Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:23He's the one.
00:23Didn't I fire you too already?
00:27Get your hand off my car.
00:29We're done, Adrian.
00:30I need someone with a future.
00:33Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining
00:35Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:37This isn't about money.
00:38Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity
00:41that might interest you?
00:44There's revolutionary procedures.
00:45With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:48Great!
00:49Dad!
00:49Oh, are you just standing there?
00:51Do something!
00:52If you need help, just ask.
00:53All you have to do is know what you did.
00:58A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city,
01:02sending a surge of critically injured patients
01:04flooding into Vail Hospital's emergency department.
01:07The fate of these accident victims
01:09now rests in the hands of Vail's surgical team,
01:12their last hope for survival
01:14in the face of devastating trauma.
01:16Patients crashing!
01:17We need an attending surgeon now!
01:19All the hours are full.
01:20We got three more criticals incoming.
01:22Sir, the patient trauma three is coding.
01:25Oh, I can't leave this one.
01:26Where's Dr. Stevens?
01:27We need another attending surgeon.
01:29Everyone else is in the U.R.
01:47Need a hand?
01:48A new hire.
01:50You just started this month.
01:52Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency
01:54isn't ready for a level one trauma like this?
01:56Patients' pressure is dropping.
01:58Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
02:00Patients' yours.
02:07Okay, we are going to perform a modified whipple.
02:10Whipple?
02:11For trauma?
02:12That's insane.
02:13Trust me.
02:15That's some bomb scissors.
02:18Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
02:22That procedure will take hours.
02:24The patient won't survive.
02:26Bovey, Cotterie.
02:29Watch.
02:36He's doing it in half the normal time.
02:38The bleeding.
02:39It's under control.
02:40It's under control.
02:41But how did he...
02:44Tilk suture?
02:50Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
02:54I've never seen anything like this.
03:01Almost done.
03:10This patient's going to make a full recovery.
03:12Jesus, Adrian.
03:22What you just pulled off is impossible.
03:25I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but...
03:27That...
03:28That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
03:32Where did you learn to operate like that?
03:33What you just did will go down in the history books.
03:36Wait.
03:37I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
03:44Is that you?
03:51Final suture.
03:53Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
03:57Doctor.
04:03The nurses.
04:04They said you did it.
04:06And you...
04:07You actually did.
04:11Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
04:14Every surgeon on the West Coast said it was inoperable.
04:17That she only had weeks to live.
04:18But...
04:19You...
04:20You saved my Catherine.
04:23She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
04:25Name your price, whatever it is.
04:27We need you at Vail.
04:29My hospital.
04:32Look, I'll explain later.
04:33Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
04:37It's gonna take hours.
04:39Y'all should go home.
04:40Get some rest.
04:42I'll take over from here.
04:44Okay.
04:46Good work, everyone.
04:46Good work, everyone.
04:57They're all stable.
05:19Every single one of them.
05:22Stabilized.
05:22Oh, sun's coming up.
05:30You must have operated all night.
05:32You're a machine.
05:33Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
05:36All right.
05:37It's time for some much-needed shut-eye.
05:40Hey, you.
05:59Hey, yourself.
06:00I've been operating all night.
06:04Seemed every single patient in that pileup.
06:07What you did was extraordinary.
06:10How do you always know exactly what I needed?
06:14Because I know you.
06:16Better than anyone.
06:17Goldberry, your favorite.
06:26You remembered.
06:27Appreciate it.
06:29You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
06:34I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
06:39It just feels different.
06:39It's the third time this week.
06:49Hospital needs better than someone else's.
06:51Hmm.
06:53So who's this Marksman guy?
06:55His surgical skills are unreal.
06:56Sure.
06:57I thought he was just another new hire.
06:59I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
07:02With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
07:09What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
07:15Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
07:21Who is this guy?
07:24Preston Bale.
07:25Preston Bale's son.
07:26Harvard MBA.
07:27He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife,
07:31who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
07:36I'm sorry.
07:36Am I looking at two board-certified surgeons?
07:38Or med school dropouts?
07:42Hard to tell based on your behavior.
07:44Sir.
07:45About that.
07:45Save it.
07:47Parker.
07:49You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
07:52You're fired.
07:54Clear out your office.
07:55New management means new standards.
07:58It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
08:03Attention.
08:05Everybody's attention now.
08:06If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs, every surgery must be perfect.
08:13No complications.
08:15No deaths.
08:16This second-rate medicine stops right now.
08:20Who's he thinking is?
08:21Dr. House?
08:22What is this?
08:26Excellence in emergency medicine?
08:29Save your ego stroking for your own time.
08:33This is a hospital.
08:35We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
08:39That was for my residency direction.
08:41Oh, cry me a river.
08:42Maybe 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.
08:50You're fired.
08:51Excuse me?
08:52Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
08:57Yes, sir.
08:58Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
09:01That was good.
09:03Let's go.
09:08Well, well, well.
09:10What do we have here?
09:12Sleeping after a shift?
09:15Rise and shine, superstar.
09:16Did I order a wake-up call?
09:23No, you didn't.
09:24Yes, but here's one anyway.
09:26You are fired.
09:31Are you serious?
09:33You're firing me?
09:34Do you need me to draw your diagram, doctor?
09:37Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
09:40Fiona, what's his position here?
09:43He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Valp.
09:48What's he make?
09:49$700,000.
09:51That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
09:54$700,000.
09:55Are you insane?
09:56You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
10:00This hospital is being scammed.
10:02I just worked all night.
10:04Okay, I'm just taking a nap.
10:05Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?
10:08Seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
10:12What were you thinking?
10:13Hiring is fraud.
10:15Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons, or this is some sort of insurance scam.
10:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together, but I can't let him drag me down.
10:24My career comes first.
10:26Boy, bye.
10:28There must be some clerical error.
10:31His credentials.
10:32Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
10:35Fiona.
10:36Dr. Marksman, you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
10:46Clear out your office.
10:47Clear out your locker.
10:49Get the hell out of my hospital.
10:51This is a mistake, okay?
10:53You need to check the surgical lock.
10:54You don't get to wear that before.
11:03I see.
11:06Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
11:09You don't understand.
11:10He's the one who...
11:11Didn't I fire you two already?
11:13Beat it.
11:14Vail is still the number one hospital in the nation.
11:16Okay, don't make this worse for yourselves.
11:36I understand.
11:38Hospital politics.
11:40Look, I know it's only been a month, but there is something real between us.
11:44Meet me in the lobby after your shift.
11:47I'll be waiting.
11:56You care to explain that little exchange?
12:04The boy won't like this.
12:05Four attendings dismissed in one day.
12:08Patient care will suffer.
12:10Fear is a weapon, Fiona.
12:12I intend to wield it.
12:14Or perhaps you're more concerned with one surgeon in particular.
12:18Your little scam artist situation ship.
12:20No, Preston.
12:22He means nothing to me.
12:23Really.
12:24I have no personal stake in your staffing decision.
12:26Let's be clear about your future here.
12:29Do you want to be with the nobody collecting unemployment checks?
12:34Or the man who signs everyone's paychecks?
12:37Including yours.
12:38The man who signs everyone's paychecks.
12:44Even the most attractive administrators need to be reminded who's in charge around here.
12:48Hey, Dad.
12:58What's wrong?
12:58Your mother's having a rough week of recovery.
13:01She'll be okay, but I need you to take full control of the hospital.
13:05And, Preston, there's something critical you need to know.
13:08Of course.
13:09What is it?
13:09That new surgeon, Dr. Marksman?
13:12Whatever happens, make sure you take care of him.
13:16Dr. Marksman?
13:17Dr. Marksman, you're fucking fired.
13:20Get out of my hospital.
13:22Christ.
13:23The resident I just fired?
13:25Preston?
13:26Are you there?
13:28Check the staff roster.
13:30Um, see if we have another Marksman working for us here.
13:33I had to back up the brakes truck to get him here.
13:38He's a surgeon who saved her mother's life.
13:41And he's pioneering our experimental surgery program.
13:45The hospital's reputation rests on his work.
13:54Ah, yes.
13:55I see now there's another surgeon attending with that name.
13:58Dr. Marksman, pioneer in experimental trauma surgery.
14:02Two-time Florence Nightingale, medal recipient for medical excellence.
14:07Three-times Apex award winner for clinical research.
14:09Is this who you mean, Dad?
14:10That's our man.
14:11There's another surgeon with the same last name who's been a disaster for us.
14:16Negligent, lazy, you name it.
14:18Do me a favor, fire him.
14:21Already done, Dad.
14:22I fired his slacker ass this morning.
14:25Thank God.
14:26Almost thought I fired our star surgeon.
14:29Good work, son.
14:30I'll visit when your mother's stronger.
14:34Just, uh, just take care of Mom, all right?
14:36I got everything else under control.
14:44See?
14:45Told you that slacker resident I fired was worthless.
14:48Now, about your career trajectory.
14:53Mr. Vale, sir.
14:54Can't you see I'm busy?
14:56Multiple traumas incoming.
14:58The six-car pileup.
14:59You fired half our surgery team.
15:00What's your point?
15:01ER is crashing.
15:03We've no one left who can handle it.
15:04Give me the situation.
15:12Now.
15:13Six critical traumas, three more incoming.
15:16Multiple crush injuries, arterial bleeds, sir.
15:19We're losing patients.
15:21What are our options?
15:22There might be one solution.
15:24Well, spit it out.
15:26Dr. Marksman.
15:27He handled four critical traumas along last night.
15:29If we can get him back here.
15:31Marksman.
15:32Right.
15:32That's the man we need.
15:33Fiona, call him.
15:34Which Dr. Marksman should I?
15:37The genius surgeon.
15:38The one I didn't fire.
15:39Keep up.
15:45What the hell?
15:47Where'd all this stuff go?
16:00Idiot left his research notes.
16:06Mmm.
16:07Modified trauma protocol.
16:10Wait.
16:12Is it his revolutionary procedures?
16:16Oh, this is brilliant work.
16:21Hello?
16:23Dr. Marksman.
16:24Multiple critical traumas in the ER.
16:26Preston Vale says if you can handle this crisis,
16:28there's a monster promotion waiting.
16:31I'm on my way.
16:35With Adrian's techniques,
16:37I'll look like a genius.
16:39They'll make me department head.
16:42And I can finally make seven figures.
16:49Well?
16:51Dr. Marksman's on his way.
16:53Thank God.
16:53Thank God.
17:00Now, about your loyalty.
17:07Adrian meant nothing.
17:09I was using him to advance my career
17:11and my future.
17:13That's my girl.

17:27I was using him to advance my career.
17:28I was using him to advance my career.
17:29I was using him to advance my career.
19:00Thank you, girl.
19:07Beyond a shift in it an hour ago, the boss's son is up to something.
19:12To hell with this. I'm going out.
19:15Piece of shit!
19:31Get your hand on my girl!
19:39Oh, just knock it off, Adrian!
19:41You mean to tell me that the brilliant surgeon can't see what's been happening under his own nose?
19:46You mean to tell me that you've been messing around with this incompetent nepo baby?
19:50I can choose who I want. And I don't want a disgraced surgeon with no future.
19:54You pathetic loser.
19:55Okay.

22:21he was sleeping while the patient almost died on the table clear-cut medical malfeasance
22:28dr hart incredible news dr adrian marksman that surgical pioneer that you've been tracking

23:56denying it this is crazy you've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon and when a complication
24:02occurs which happened in this hospital under your incompetent leadership you blame me
24:10the collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad
24:16if you were even half the surgeon that you claim to be you would still have a job
24:21i'm not going to stand here and debate medicine with you in front of mr veil security please detain him
24:32what exactly are you accusing me of either confess to medical malfeasance or they'll escort you to

25:17out of him after all he'll be a danger to his patients wherever he goes priston you can't let
25:22him walk away after this not after what he did to our patients i'm contacting the medical board right
25:29now as of this moment dr adrian marksman is blacklisted from veil hospital and every medical institute in
25:36in the country plans in motion adrian do you know what that means it means that you will never practice
25:42medicine in this country again i have one question before i go does your father know you fired me
25:51my father's the one who asked me to fire you you dipshit
25:57you thought you were some brilliant surgical god didn't you security remove this criminal from

26:49doing here well i'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country of course wait are you
26:56seriously suggesting this negligent doctor as value he was sleeping during rounds is this how veil
27:03hospital discards its exceptional talent your father built this institution's reputation of medical excellence
27:11not petty politics dr hart with all due respect this is a conversation between medical directors
27:19someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence
27:23dr hart i must inform you that dr marksman represents a serious liability he compromised patient safety and i
27:31don't believe i don't believe i requested your medical opinion dr marksman david marksman i have
27:36neither time nor interest in your assessment after he decided to go to sleep we had a critical
27:44surgical complication his negligence led to the problem his actions not only endangered patients it
27:51compromised my hospital's reputation are you really willing to defend someone who violates the hippocratic
27:58oath did you actually consult with your father before dismissing dr marksman of course i consulted my father
28:08he's the one who specifically mentioned his dangerous surgical shortcuts and inflated reputation
28:14dangerous shortcuts is that what president veil really said his exact words were remove him at first
28:21opportunity president veil was the one that recruited me this makes absolutely no sense please adrian the
28:27president would personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you those gala invitations were professional
28:33courtesy not genuine respect well if that's the way things work at veil i have nothing more to contribute
28:40to any of you dr marksman would you consider joining heart medical center as our chief of surgery
28:46well i have full department autonomy protected research time a surgical fellowship in your name and a
28:56seven-figure salary package

29:48you're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job
29:53dr hart have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs this is absurd he was a mediocre
30:00surgeon here at veil and now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department

35:38morning heart medical center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena revolutionary
35:44surgical procedures or avail hospitals domain are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight
35:51this is merely a professional courtesy call not an invitation for debate now just
36:02just that conniving bitch plotting she knows adrian is our surgical secret weapon why would she
36:09deliberately deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning
36:15unless
36:23dad we've got multiple traumas coming in just tell me you didn't fire dr marksman
36:29dad relax i fired the other one an incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned
36:34then explain to me why heart medical center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical
36:40supremacy because i masterfully led vivian hard into a false sense of reality it's not way a
36:48mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures i convinced vivian that she's acquired
36:54surgical brilliance but in reality she's hired our disgrace discarded loser so you deliberately
37:00manipulated vivian she thinks she's hired genius behind veil hospital's groundbreaking procedures
37:08that's why she had the audacity to declare warring impressive son you're finally showing some of the
37:13leadership qualities uh i've been waiting to see out of you i think you're ready to take complete
37:18control of our experimental surgical division
37:23dad this this is everything i've worked for thank you we'll get to work immediately we're going to
37:29to expose heart medical center for the low-grade institution it truly is their humiliation will be quick
37:38and absolute i will let you down darling surgical innovation is the future of veil preston only got his mba
37:48last year do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program i would never
37:54take a risk like take a risk like this if preston was our only asset remember we have the ultimate
38:01surgical secret weapon you mean the surgeon that saved my life dr adrian marksman exactly and all i need
38:10to do is stay hands off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents as long as adrian is with veil
38:20the hospital heart medical center has no chance of competing not only that vivian fell for preston's
38:28manipulation and hired that medical disaster dr david marksman all we have to do now is sit back and watch
38:39her would be empire so now that you've seen the surgical department
38:52what do you think it's not bad it's a small team but they're talented what you've built here it's
39:00impressive if it's good to see you again after all these years adrian you too we need to expand
39:10it's too small for what i'm planning also i heard you weren't the only surgeon preston vale fired
39:18we have all the angles figured out don't you and they always find the best one
39:35i'm gonna start recruiting good the faster we rise the more rewarding this partnership becomes
39:48it's better be good mr vale you wanted to see me
40:07my father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department
40:13given your new position as chief of surgery i'm appointing you head of innovation mr vale i uh
40:20is there an issue with that no absolutely not the budget for innovation is astronomical
40:26and president vale has already handed control to his son if i oversee these procedures i could
40:32divert significant resources to my personal research mr vale you can trust me completely
40:39i am precisely the right man for the job
40:44preston we have a catastrophe on our hands two attending surgeons just submitted their
40:48resignation simultaneously the department can't possibly maintain its caseload what they both
40:53resigned at once what was their explanation they refused to disclose their reasons but there's talk
40:57they were recruited by a former failed physician along with the three other surgeons you fired before
41:02former physician adrian marksman this has his saboteur signature all over it
41:06what's our contingency plan the surgical department is severely understaffed if any more surgeons leave patients will suffer hey everybody needs to remain calm
41:18you still have me i can rebuild this department uh yes with your stellar reputation we should be able to get the best of the best
41:26yes exactly so we lost some second-rate talent let him go i'll make some calls to cedar sinai
41:36and ucla good work marksman
41:43this is working out perfectly now i can install my own allies in key positions
41:47yes soon i'll control the entire hospital's medical direction
42:02you
