Short filmTranscript
00:00:00The patient's crashing! We need an attending surgeon now!
00:00:02The patient won't survive.
00:00:04Watch.
00:00:05Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level of trauma like this?
00:00:09This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:00:11What you just did will go down in the history box.
00:00:14Who is this guy?
00:00:15He's taking over as hospital administrator.
00:00:17New management, new standards.
00:00:19Sleeping after a shift?
00:00:20You are fired.
00:00:21I just worked all night.
00:00:23Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:00:25He's the one.
00:00:26Didn't I fire you too already?
00:00:28Get your hand off my gun arm.
00:00:31We're done, Adrian.
00:00:32I need someone with a future.
00:00:34Dr. Marksman, would you consider joining Heart Medical Center as our chief of surgery?
00:00:39This isn't about money.
00:00:40Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you?
00:00:45These are his revolutionary procedures.
00:00:47With Adrian's techniques, I'll look like a genius.
00:00:50Why is that?
00:00:51Oh.
00:00:52Why are you just standing there?
00:00:53Do something!
00:00:54If you need help, just ask.
00:00:55All you have to do is know what you did.
00:00:58A catastrophic multi-vehicle collision rocked the city, sending a surge of critically injured
00:01:07patients flooding into Bale Hospital's emergency department.
00:01:11The fate of these accident victims now rests in the hands of Bale's surgical team, their
00:01:16last hope for survival in the face of devastating trauma.
00:01:20Facials crashing!
00:01:21We need an attending surgeon now!
00:01:23All the hours are full.
00:01:24We've got three more criticals incoming.
00:01:26Sir, the patient trauma 3 is coding.
00:01:29I can't leave this one.
00:01:30Where's Dr. Stevens?
00:01:31We need another attending surgeon.
00:01:32Everyone else is in the U.R.
00:01:34Need a hand?
00:01:35A new hire.
00:01:36You just started this month.
00:01:41Some junior surgeon fresh out of residency isn't ready for a level one trauma like this!
00:01:47The patient's pressure is dropping.
00:01:48Time to prove yourself, Dr. Marksman.
00:01:49The patient's yours.
00:01:50Okay, we are going to perform a modified Whipple.
00:01:51Whipple?
00:01:52For trauma?
00:01:53That's insane!
00:01:54Trust me.
00:01:55Madson bomb scissors.
00:01:56Dr. Rhoades, I need you to complete...
00:01:57You're in the hospital.
00:01:58Of course.
00:01:59That's the same
00:02:16Trust me.
00:02:18Metzenbaum scissors.
00:02:21Dr. Rhodes, I need you to retract here.
00:02:25That procedure will take hours.
00:02:27The patient won't survive.
00:02:29Bobicottery.
00:02:32Watch.
00:02:39He's doing it in half the normal time.
00:02:41The bleeding, it's under control.
00:02:44But how did he...?
00:02:47Silk suture.
00:02:53Parker, I want you to clamp exactly where I show you.
00:03:01I've never seen anything like this.
00:03:03Almost done.
00:03:05This patient's going to make a full recovery.
00:03:16What you just pulled off is impossible.
00:03:17I thought you were just some rookie surgeon, but that...
00:03:31That was the most incredible technique I've ever witnessed.
00:03:34Where did you learn to operate like that?
00:03:35What you just did will go down in the history books.
00:03:38Wait.
00:03:39I heard President Vail personally recruited a medical prodigy
00:03:42who revolutionized surgical procedures at Mass General.
00:03:45Is that you?
00:03:53Final suture.
00:03:55Miss Vail's new pancreatic duct is anastomosed.
00:03:59Doctor.
00:04:00The nurses.
00:04:01They said you did it.
00:04:02And you...
00:04:03You actually did.
00:04:04Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:05Every surgeon on the west coast said it was inoperable.
00:04:06That she only had weeks to live.
00:04:07But...
00:04:08You...
00:04:09You saved my Catherine.
00:04:10She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:04:11Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:12We need you at Vail.
00:04:13My hospital.
00:04:14Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:15Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:04:17To the hospital.
00:04:18To the hospital.
00:04:19To the hospital.
00:04:20You actually did.
00:04:21Sir, you shouldn't be in here during an operation.
00:04:22Every surgeon on the west coast said it was inoperable.
00:04:23That she only had weeks to live.
00:04:24But...
00:04:25You...
00:04:26You saved my Catherine.
00:04:27She'll make a full recovery, President Vail.
00:04:28Name your price, whatever it is.
00:04:29We need you at Vail.
00:04:30My hospital.
00:04:31Look, I'll explain later.
00:04:32Right now we have three critical patients that need specialized procedures.
00:04:39It's gonna take hours.
00:04:41Y'all should go home, get some rest.
00:04:44I'll take over from here.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:47Good work, everyone.
00:05:09You're all stable.
00:05:10Every single one of them.
00:05:11Stabilized.
00:05:12Oh.
00:05:13The sun's coming up.
00:05:14You must have operated all night.
00:05:15You're a machine.
00:05:16Well, that's why they pay me the big bucks.
00:05:17All right.
00:05:18It's time for some much needed Shaddai.
00:05:24Oh.
00:05:25It's time for some much needed Shaddai.
00:05:29Hey you.
00:05:30Hey you.
00:05:31Hey.
00:05:32Hey.
00:05:33Hey.
00:05:34Hey.
00:05:35Hey.
00:05:36Hey.
00:05:37Hey.
00:05:38Yourself.
00:05:39I've been operating all night.
00:05:45I've seen every single patient in that pileup.
00:05:46What I did was extraordinary.
00:05:47How do you always know exactly?
00:05:48What I needed.
00:05:49All I needed.
00:05:50Cause I know you.
00:05:53What I needed was extraordinary.
00:05:59How do you always know exactly what I needed?
00:06:04Cause I know you.
00:06:05I know you.
00:06:10What I needed, what I ...
00:06:15Because I know you better than anyone.
00:06:24Goldberry, your favorite?
00:06:27You remembered.
00:06:29Where's your dad?
00:06:31You know, I've been thinking lately about us.
00:06:36I know it's only been a month, but it just feels different.
00:06:45It's the third time this week.
00:06:50Hospital food's better than someone else's.
00:06:52Hmm.
00:06:54So who's this marksman guy?
00:06:56His surgical skills are unreal.
00:06:58Sure, I thought he was just another new hire.
00:07:00I had no idea he could handle complex traumas like that.
00:07:03With a talent like this, you'd think that he'd be running his own department right now.
00:07:07What is this, a hospital or a nail salon?
00:07:17Last I checked, I'm not paying you doctors to sit around and gossip.
00:07:23Who is this guy?
00:07:24Preston Bale, President Bale's son, Harvard MBA.
00:07:28He's taking over as hospital administrator while his father takes care of his wife
00:07:32who just recovered from an experimental pancreatic duodenectomy.
00:07:37I'm sorry, am I looking at two board-certified surgeons?
00:07:40Or med school dropouts?
00:07:43Hard to tell based on your behavior.
00:07:45Sir, about last-
00:07:46Save it.
00:07:49Parker.
00:07:50You couldn't even manage a simple trauma rotation.
00:07:54You're fired.
00:07:55Clear out your office.
00:07:57New management means new standards.
00:08:00It's time to separate the real surgeons from the posers.
00:08:04Attention, and everybody's attention now.
00:08:08If you expect to keep your obscenely overpaid jobs,
00:08:12every surgery must be perfect.
00:08:13No complications, no deaths.
00:08:17This second-rate medicine stops right now.
00:08:20Who does he think he is?
00:08:22Dr. House?
00:08:25What is this?
00:08:27Excellence in emergency medicine?
00:08:30Save your ego stroking for your own time.
00:08:34This is a hospital.
00:08:36We need surgeons, not trophy collectors.
00:08:40That was from my residency direction.
00:08:42Oh, cry me a river.
00:08:44Maybe if you spent a little bit more time on your patients,
00:08:47and a little less time collecting gold stars,
00:08:49you'd be a real doctor.
00:08:51You're fired.
00:08:52Excuse me?
00:08:53Make sure she gets a souvenir from the gift shop,
00:08:55just to show her how grateful we are for her time here.
00:08:58Yes, sir.
00:08:59Would you prefer a fountain pen or a snow globe?
00:09:01Or a snow globe?
00:09:03That was good.
00:09:04Let's go.
00:09:10Well, well, well.
00:09:12What do we have here?
00:09:14Sleeping after a shift?
00:09:16Rise and shine, superstar.
00:09:18Did I order a wake-up call?
00:09:24No, you didn't.
00:09:26But here's one anyway.
00:09:28You are fired!
00:09:32Are you serious?
00:09:33You're firing me?
00:09:34Do you need me to draw you a diagram, doctor?
00:09:38Well, no, but there must be some sort of mistake.
00:09:41Fiona, what's his position here?
00:09:43He's a new surgical resident, Mr. Vale.
00:09:49What's he make?
00:09:50$700,000.
00:09:52That's standard for a trauma surgeon.
00:09:54$700?
00:09:56Are you insane?
00:09:57You're giving resident money to a first-year who sleeps on the job?
00:10:00This hospital is being scammed!
00:10:03I just worked all night, okay?
00:10:04I'm just taking a nap.
00:10:06Oh, so now you're expecting overtime pay?
00:10:09I've seen lazy doctors, but this is criminal negligence.
00:10:13What were you thinking hiring this fraud?
00:10:16Either you're as dumb as these hack surgeons,
00:10:18or this is some sort of insurance scam?
00:10:20Adrian and I might be sleeping together,
00:10:23but I can't let him drag me down.
00:10:25My career comes first.
00:10:27Boy, bye.
00:10:29There must be some clerical error.
00:10:31His credentials.
00:10:33Other residents make a fraction of that salary.
00:10:36Fiona?
00:10:38Dr. Marksman,
00:10:41you are F-I-R-E-D fired.
00:10:46Clear out your office.
00:10:48Clear out your locker.
00:10:50You'll get the hell out of my hospital.
00:10:52This is a mistake, okay?
00:10:54You need to check the surgical lock.
00:10:55Oh, you don't get to wear that.
00:10:56What?
00:11:03I see.
00:11:06Sir, Dr. Marksman is an amazing surgeon.
00:11:09You don't understand.
00:11:10He's the one who-
00:11:11Didn't I fire you two already?
00:11:13Beat it.
00:11:15Vale is still the number one hospital in the nation, okay?
00:11:17Don't make this worse for yourselves.
00:11:18I understand.
00:11:19Hospital politics.

00:22:09this is crazy
00:22:11you've all passed me off as some second-rate surgeon
00:22:13and when a complication occurs which happened in this hospital
00:22:17under your incompetent leadership
00:22:20you blame me
00:22:23the collective medical knowledge in this room isn't enough to fill a prescription pad

00:24:03my father's the one who asked me to fire you you dipshit

00:24:41as chief of surgical innovation
00:24:44at heart medical center
00:24:46i know you
00:24:48you're vivian hart

00:25:02four or five years ago
00:25:03what are you doing here
00:25:04well i'm here for the most innovative surgeon in the country of course
00:25:08wait
00:25:10are you seriously suggesting this negligent doctor has value
00:25:14he was sleeping during rounds
00:25:16is this how vale hospital discards its exceptional talent
00:25:20your father built this institution's reputation
00:25:23of medical excellence
00:25:25not petty politics
00:25:27dr hart
00:25:29with all due respect
00:25:31this is a conversation between medical directors
00:25:33someone in your position should recognize when to maintain silence
00:25:36dr hart
00:25:38i must inform you that dr marksman represents a serious liability
00:25:42he compromised patient safety
00:25:44and
00:25:45i don't believe i requested your medical opinion dr
00:25:48marksman david marksman
00:25:50i have neither time nor interest
00:25:52in your assessment
00:25:53after he
00:25:56decided to go to sleep
00:25:58we had a critical surgical complication
00:26:00his negligence led to the problem
00:26:03his actions not only endangered patients
00:26:05it compromised my hospital's reputation
00:26:08are you really willing to defend someone
00:26:11who violates the hippocratic oath
00:26:13did you actually consult with your father
00:26:16before dismissing dr marksman
00:26:17of course i consulted my father
00:26:20he's the one who specifically mentioned his
00:26:24dangerous surgical shortcuts
00:26:25and inflated reputation
00:26:27dangerous shortcuts
00:26:29is that what president vale really said
00:26:32his exact words were
00:26:33remove him at first opportunity
00:26:35president vale was the one that recruited me
00:26:38this makes absolutely no sense
00:26:39please adrian
00:26:40the president wouldn't personally recruit a mid-level surgeon like you
00:26:44those gala invitations were professional courtesy
00:26:48not genuine respect
00:26:50well if that's the way things work at vale
00:26:52i have nothing more to contribute
00:26:54to any of you
00:26:55dr marksman
00:26:56would you consider joining heart medical center
00:26:59as our chief of surgery
00:27:00well i've
00:27:03full department autonomy
00:27:04protected research time
00:27:07a surgical fellowship in your name
00:27:09and a seven-figure salary package
00:27:12you
00:27:25you
00:27:33you
00:27:37And Cash, Dr. Marksman, I want you to revolutionize our surgery program.
00:27:49Hopefully this shows you.
00:27:52I mean what I say.
00:27:53Chief of Surgery?
00:28:03You're offering all this to a surgeon who can't even keep his eyes open on the job?
00:28:08Dr. Hart, have you completely lost your medical judgment or are you on drugs?
00:28:13This is absurd.
00:28:14He was a mediocre surgeon here at Vail.
00:28:17And now you're positioning him to lead your entire surgical department?
00:28:23The medical board should review your hiring practices.
00:28:27Vivian, I appreciate your confidence.
00:28:31This isn't about money.
00:28:34Maybe there's something beyond professional opportunity that might interest you.
00:28:39She's offering herself up to him.
00:28:41She can't do that.
00:28:42Are you a doctor or a call girl?
00:28:45At Hart Medical Center, you will be given everything a surgeon of your caliber deserves.
00:28:49including a boss that would do absolutely anything to recognize your value.
00:28:56And I do mean anything, Dr. Marksman.
00:29:00Dr. Hart, for the sake of your own reputation,
00:29:04you need to know that this hack you're so eagerly pursuing has a documented history of negligence.
00:29:10My father confirmed it himself.
00:29:12Is that precisely what Nelson Bale told you?
00:29:15His exact words.
00:29:16Negligence, Serge?
00:29:20What are those?
00:29:23Personal gifts from your father?
00:29:28My fellowship offer?
00:29:30My personal research lab?
00:29:32My surgical team?
00:29:34I'm leaving it all behind.
00:29:35You can tell President Bale that as of this moment,
00:29:40Dr. Marksman has permanently withdrawn from Bale Hospital and all of its affiliated institutions.
00:29:47You know what?
00:29:48Spare us the theatrics, Adrian.
00:29:50You never deserve those privileges in the first place.
00:29:53The medical board is going to see that justice is done.
00:29:55Oh, your stupidity.
00:29:59It's just astonishing.
00:30:02You treat pioneering surgeons like disposable scalpels.
00:30:05This man is a life-saving artist.
00:30:08Dr. Hart, I understand there's some competition between your center and Bale Hospital.
00:30:17Yeah, look, I'll be real.
00:30:20We're struggling to get out from under their shadow.
00:30:22Look, I'd be happy to help you out with that.
00:30:24Take me on, and I'll transform Hart into the number one surgical institution in the country.
00:30:29Look at yourself, Adrian, offering your skills to a struggling clinic.
00:30:35How pathetically desperate.
00:30:38Oh, a backstabbing bottom feeder like you has absolutely no right to judge a surgeon of his caliber.
00:30:45How dare you talk to me like that!
00:30:47Your malpractice has caused catastrophic damage to my hospital's reputation.
00:30:53As the responsible party, I demand that you issue a formal apology to one of the major medical journals.
00:31:00And with an explanation to every affected Bale Hospital patient.
00:31:05Refuse me, and I will ensure that the medical board revokes your license permanently.
00:31:10That accusation isn't just baseness.
00:31:13It's absurd.
00:31:14What exactly do you think you're going to do about it?
00:31:17You've got no choice but to sign this confession.
00:31:19Oh, stop threatening my chief surgeon.
00:31:21If you insist on pursuing this vendetta, have your attorney send a formal complaint to Hart Medical Center.
00:31:28We'll consider it nothing less than a declaration of total war.
00:31:33If it's war you want, I will obliterate your dime store clinic with everything that I've got.
00:31:40Let's go.
00:31:42One more second and a cesspool's going to make me physically ill.
00:31:51Mr. Vail, don't you waste another precious moment on those second-rate practitioners.
00:32:00David, you've proven your loyalty.
00:32:02The chief of surgery position is yours, effective immediately.
00:32:06This is, this is, this is extraordinary.
00:32:09I, thank you.
00:32:11I, uh, I, I am honored beyond words.
00:32:15Don't forget about me, Preston.
00:32:18Don't worry, babe.
00:32:19You will be thoroughly compensated for your loyalty.
00:32:24How exciting.
00:32:25Mr. Vail, I swear on my medical oath that I will not disappoint you.
00:32:32Mr. Vail, a commuter train derailed.
00:32:35Six critical patients incoming.
00:32:36Dr. Marksman, OR1 now.
00:32:39Now's your time to shine, Dr. Marksman.
00:32:41Shit, I'm screwed.
00:32:42Adrian's surgical journal with all his proprietary techniques is still in my office.
00:32:46If Preston finds out I stole it and then couldn't even use it properly.
00:32:50I implemented a groundbreaking surgical protocol that I invented myself.
00:32:56These techniques are revolutionary.
00:32:59I'll walk you through it in detail after the emergency.
00:33:02It's impressive, Dr. Marksman.
00:33:04You've obviously got your own methodology.
00:33:06No need to bore me with the specifics.
00:33:08I trust your brilliance.
00:33:10Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:33:12With you leading my surgical team, I can focus on what really matters.
00:33:16Hospital expansion.
00:33:19Again, sir.
00:33:20I'm deeply honored.
00:33:27Behold, Vail Hospital's new chief of surgery.
00:33:31Let's see how all these condescending clowns treat me now.
00:33:37Glad you're feeling better, honey.
00:33:40Yeah.
00:33:40Oh, sorry.
00:33:42Who's this?
00:33:47Nelson Vail speaking.
00:33:48President Vail.
00:33:49Dr. Vivian Hart here.
00:33:50I am calling to let you know that as of this morning, Hart Medical Center has officially entered the experimental surgery arena.
00:33:58Revolutionary surgical procedures are Vail Hospital's domain.
00:34:02Are you absolutely certain you want to pick this fight?
00:34:06This is merely a professional courtesy call, not an invitation for debate.
00:34:11Now, just...
00:34:12What is that conniving bitch plotting?
00:34:19She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:34:21She knows Adrian is our surgical secret weapon.
00:34:24Why would she deliberately provoke a medical war she has absolutely no chance of winning?
00:34:29Dad, we've got multiple traumas coming in.
00:34:40Just tell me you didn't fire Dr. Marksman.
00:34:42Dad, relax.
00:34:43I fired the other one, that incompetent slacker resident that you mentioned.
00:34:49Then explain to me why Hart Medical Center believes they can suddenly challenge our surgical supremacy.
00:34:55Because I masterfully led Vivian Hart into a false sense of reality.
00:35:02There's no way a mediocre doctor can revolutionize surgical procedures.
00:35:06I convinced Vivian that she's acquired surgical brilliance, when in reality, she's hired our disgraced, discarded loser.
00:35:14So you deliberately manipulated Vivian?
00:35:17She thinks she's hired genius behind Vail Hospital's groundbreaking procedures.
00:35:22That's why she had the audacity to declare war on you.
00:35:25Impressive, son.
00:35:26You're finally showing some of the leadership qualities.
00:35:29I've been waiting to see out of you.
00:35:31I think you're ready to take complete control of our experimental surgical division.
00:35:38Dad, this is everything I've worked for, thank you.
00:35:41We'll get to work immediately.
00:35:43We're going to expose Hart Medical Center for the low-grade institution it truly is.
00:35:51Their humiliation will be quick and absolute.
00:35:54I won't let you down.
00:35:55Darling, surgical innovation is the future of Vail.
00:36:01Preston only got his MBA last year.
00:36:04Do you really think it's wise to entrust him with our most prestigious program?
00:36:08I would never take a risk like this if Preston was our only asset.
00:36:13Remember, we have the ultimate surgical secret weapon.
00:36:18You mean the surgeon that saved my life?
00:36:20Dr. Adrian Marksman.
00:36:22Exactly.
00:36:23And all I need to do is stay hands-off and let him exercise his extraordinary talents.
00:36:33As long as Adrian is with Vail Hospital, Hart Medical Center has no chance of competing.
00:36:41Not only that, Vivian fell for Preston's manipulation and hired that medical disaster, Dr. David Marksman.
00:36:49What we have to do now is sit back and watch her would-be empire crumble.
00:36:56So, now that you've seen the surgical department, what do you think?
00:37:08It's not bad.
00:37:09It's a small team, but they're talented.
00:37:12What you've built here, it's impressive, Viv.
00:37:17It's good to see you again after all these years, Adrian.
00:37:21You too.
00:37:23We need to expand.
00:37:25It's too small for what I'm planning.
00:37:28Also, I heard you weren't the only surgeon Preston Vail fired.
00:37:34We have all the angles figured out, don't you?
00:37:40And I always find the best one.
00:37:43I'm gonna start recruiting.
00:37:53Good.
00:37:55The faster we rise, the more rewarding this partnership becomes.
00:38:12This better be good.
00:38:14Mr. Vail, you wanted to see me?
00:38:18My father has granted me complete authority over our experimental surgical department.
00:38:27Given your new position as chief of surgery, I'm appointing you head of innovation.
00:38:32Mr. Vail, I, uh...
00:38:34Is there an issue with that?
00:38:36No, absolutely not.
00:38:38The budget for innovation is astronomical, and President Vail has already handed control to his son?
00:38:44If I oversee these procedures, I could divert significant resources to my personal research.
00:38:51Mr. Vail, you can trust me completely.
00:38:54I am precisely the right man for the job.
00:38:59Preston, we have a catastrophe on our hands.
00:39:01Two attending surgeons just submitted their resignation simultaneously.
00:39:04The department can't possibly maintain its caseload.
00:39:06What?
00:39:07They both resigned at once?
00:39:08What was their explanation?
00:39:09They refused to disclose their reasons.
00:39:11But there's talk they were recruited by a former Vail physician.
00:39:13Along with the three other surgeons you fired before.
00:39:16Former physician, Adrian Marksman.
00:39:18This has his saboteur signature all over it.
00:39:21Preston, what's our contingency plan?
00:39:23The surgical department is severely understaffed.
00:39:26If any more surgeons leave, patients will suffer.
00:39:28Okay, everybody needs to remain calm.
00:39:31You still have me.
00:39:34I can rebuild this department.
00:39:36Ah, yes.
00:39:38With your stellar reputation, we should be able to get the best of the best.
00:39:41Exactly.
00:39:42So we lost some second-rate talent.
00:39:44Let him go.
00:39:46I'll make some calls to Cedars-Sinai and UCLA.
00:39:52Good work, Marksman.
00:39:54This is working out perfectly.
00:39:59Now I can install my own allies in key positions.
00:40:02Soon, I'll control the entire hospital's medical direction.
00:40:05It's an honor to meet you, Dr. Hart.
00:40:30Thank you, Dr. Hart.
00:40:35This is Dr. Parker here.
00:40:36He's a triple board certified surgeon.
00:40:38And soon, he'll be the head of trauma surgery.
00:40:41This is Dr. Rose, Chen, Rose, and Thomas.
00:40:45All consummate professionals.
00:40:47My most trusted colleagues back at Vail.
00:40:49With this surgical team, Hart Medical can revolutionize surgical care all across the country.
00:40:59Actually, the whole world.
00:41:01We're eager to begin, Dr. Hart.
00:41:03Well, welcome to Hart Medical Center.
00:41:06I am thrilled to have surgeons of your caliber joining us, but I do need to be transparent.
00:41:14We have got considerable ground to cover before we can truly challenge Vail Hospital's dominance.
00:41:19Have no fear, Dr. Hart.
00:41:21With Adrian leading our team, we'll be three steps ahead of anything Vail attempts.
00:41:26Yes, but Vail has already implemented Adrian's breakthrough surgical procedure protocols.
00:41:32Yeah, about that.
00:41:34It's a preliminary version.
00:41:35If they continue to develop this approach without modification...
00:41:38Then what?
00:41:39A lot of deaths.
00:41:41A lot of lawsuits.
00:41:42A lot of patients could be harmed.
00:41:44Or worse, these procedures weren't ready for widespread implementation without proper refinement.
00:41:49Those techniques require precise calibration and specialized training.
00:41:54Without that foundation...
00:41:55We're talking about serious complications.
00:41:58Preventable harm.
00:41:59Our first priority has to be patient safety.
00:42:02We need to perfect these procedures.
00:42:04And then we can find a way to prevent Vail from continuing with the flawed protocols.
00:42:09Exactly.
00:42:10It's not about competition or pride.
00:42:12It's about saving lives.
00:42:14We'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.
00:42:27Even if Vail Hospital analyzes our fundamental approach and attempts to create something new, we'll maintain our significant advantage.
00:42:36And if they stubbornly continue with their flawed protocols, rest assured, their outcomes will deteriorate.
00:42:43I don't wish it upon their patients, that's for sure.
00:42:46Remember this moment.
00:42:48In this battle for medical supremacy, Heart Medical Center will emerge victorious.
00:42:53It's 3am.
00:42:54Lost track of time again.
00:42:55Viv, you surprised me.
00:42:56Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:42:57Do you mind?
00:42:58No.
00:42:59I mean...
00:43:00Yeah.
00:43:01We should be victorious.
00:43:02We should be victorious.
00:43:03It's 3am.
00:43:04It's 3am.
00:43:05Lost track of time again.
00:43:06Viv, you surprised me.
00:43:07Looks like you could use a nice rub.
00:43:08Do you mind?
00:43:09No.
00:43:10I mean...
00:43:11Yeah.
00:43:12Would you give all your surgeons massages?
00:43:25Only the ones I really, really liked.
00:43:33You really, really liked me?
00:43:35Adrienne, I've really, really liked you since residency.
00:43:39Nothing's changed.
00:43:42You were our most brilliant resident in the program.
00:43:45I never imagined someone like you would like me.
00:43:47There was never anyone else that got my attention.
00:43:50Only you.
00:43:53But you were completely oblivious.
00:43:56And then you just vanished from the program.
00:43:59Well, I left to join the Experimental Surgical Fellowship in Switzerland.
00:44:04I know.
00:44:07Your talent was extraordinary even then.
00:44:10Back then, I made a promise to myself that we would work together again someday.
00:44:15You know, when I established Heart Medical Center, my first priority was recruiting you.
00:44:21But that manipulative tyrant, Nelson Vale, had already secured your contracts with ridiculous incentives.
00:44:30I understand now.
00:44:39So, should we pick up where we left off in residency?
00:44:44You're the boss.
00:44:46That's right.
00:44:47And as your boss, I say, come home with me.
00:44:51Tonight?
00:44:52You lost everything when Preston fired you.
00:44:55Hospital privileges, research funding, even your hospital-subsidized apartment.
00:45:05You have literally nowhere else to go tonight.
00:45:09Come with me.
00:45:11Where?
00:45:12My place.
00:45:13Hmm.
00:45:14All right.
00:45:15I'll admit it.
00:45:16That was the best meal I've had in months.
00:45:17Careful, Dr. Marksman.
00:45:18I might start thinking you're easy to please.
00:45:20That just depends on the company.
00:45:21Well, starting tonight, this is your new home.
00:45:35Until the program's fully established, it just makes sense.
00:45:38Are you sure about that?
00:45:39We already work late hours.
00:45:41Living together here now.
00:45:44You don't know where to how to play this guy.
00:45:46We already work late hours.
00:45:49Living together could get complicated.
00:45:53Well, I like complicated.
00:45:56Keeps things interesting.
00:45:58And where exactly will I be sleeping?
00:46:01Well, my master suite has a California king.
00:46:12Plenty of room.
00:46:15If things ever need to get more collaborative.
00:46:20Really?
00:46:22Relax.
00:46:23I'm only teasing.
00:46:26Tonight, at least.
00:46:28Come on.
00:46:32I'll show you your room.
00:46:35Unless you'd rather have a nightcap and mine.
00:46:38Things could get dangerous.
00:46:46Is this pathetic attempt really the best that you can do?
00:46:54You are completely worthless as surgeons.
00:47:00Dr. Marksman.
00:47:01The experimental procedures we're trying to replicate here are extraordinarily intricate.
00:47:06We need at least six months to properly master.
00:47:09Six months?
00:47:11You have 72 hours.
00:47:13And I expect hourly updates on my desk.
00:47:15Sir, brushing these delicate procedures dramatically increases the possibility of potentially fatal complications.
00:47:22Three days, then you don't get one hour more.
00:47:25Go.
00:47:26Go.
00:47:27Report, Dr. Marksman.
00:47:32What's our status?
00:47:33Excellent progress, Mr. Vale.
00:47:34We will be advancing to phase two implementation within three days.
00:47:38That's exactly what I wanted to hear.
00:47:40I knew my judgment in appointing you was flawless.
00:47:45Preston, I need an update on the experimental surgery program.
00:47:53Everything's proceeding perfectly, Father.
00:47:55Outstanding.
00:47:56When this is done, I'll throw you a huge party to celebrate the launch.
00:48:01Your father must be so proud of you.
00:48:03Keep up the good work, Dr. Marksman.
00:48:05I'll make sure my father understands your invaluable contribution.
00:48:09This is my shot.
00:48:10Why settle for chief of surgery?
00:48:12With the right maneuvering, I could become the next chief medical officer of Vale Hospital.
00:48:16Mr. Vale, my purpose is to execute the visionary medical strategies of brilliant administrators
00:48:25such as yourself.
00:48:26I believe that in the position of chief medical officer, I could implement your ideas more effectively
00:48:32throughout the entire hospital.
00:48:33If these procedures prove successful, I will personally discuss your advancement with the board.
00:48:38Truly, that's...
00:48:40I am profoundly grateful, sir.
00:48:44You're finally awake.
00:48:55You can keep appreciating the view while you eat.
00:48:58Alright.
00:48:59Ooh, breakfast.
00:49:00Looks good.
00:49:02When you're finished eating, we'll head directly to the surgical wing.
00:49:05Sound good?
00:49:06Yes.
00:49:07Absolutely.
00:49:08Good.
00:49:09Get it up and running.
00:49:10There may be a special bonus waiting for you.

00:51:07oh
00:51:09you always this disciplined are you just trying to impress me I was trying to impress you you'd
00:51:27Are you always this disciplined?
00:51:31Or are you just trying to impress me?
00:51:34If I was trying to impress you, you even know.
00:51:37Midnight meetings.
00:51:40Long hours.
00:51:42This work ethic of yours.
00:51:45It's a little dangerous.
00:51:49That's what Belle used to say about me.
00:51:53Then they fired me.
00:51:54Then they were fools.
00:52:00You've earned more than just respect here, Adrian.
00:52:04You know that, right?
00:52:10You trying to motivate me again?
00:52:12I don't try.
00:52:16I do.
00:52:20Well, don't work too late.
00:52:24You're no good to me, Burnt Out.
00:52:36The incompetence is staggering.
00:52:41Yeah, you too are in way over your heads.
00:52:43Do you really think that this is acceptable?
00:52:48I give you one simple task, and you screw it up.
00:52:51How the hell did either of you even finish residency?
00:52:55Vail General Hospital is the gold standard,
00:52:59and you two are just standing around like clueless little interns.
00:53:02If these surgical models aren't flawless by tomorrow,
00:53:05you're both gone.
00:53:06Is that clear?
00:53:07Yes, sir.
00:53:09This is the man I trusted to lead my surgical team?
00:53:14Go.
00:53:21Oh, Mr. Vail.
00:53:22What a surprise.
00:53:24Cut the bullshit, Marksman.
00:53:27We're on schedule or not.
00:53:28Of course.
00:53:30We're just refining the final stages.
00:53:34Yeah, everything is under control.
00:53:36Good.
00:53:38There's a problem.
00:53:38I expect to hear it from you.
00:53:39No cover-ups.
00:53:40Of course, sir.
00:53:44Mr. Vail.
00:53:45Not now.
00:53:46Go get me the latest performance reports.
00:53:51It, uh, looks like Preston's growing a little cold
00:53:56on our lovely administrator here.
00:53:58Don't worry.
00:53:59When Preston makes me chief medical officer,
00:54:02I'm gonna need someone flexible in my corner.
00:54:05I was back at the winning team, Dr. Marksman.
00:54:15Today, Vail Hospital officially launched
00:54:17its highly anticipated next-generation surgical program.
00:54:21This cutting-edge approach to surgical care
00:54:23is being closely watched by the medical industry,
00:54:26especially as Heart Medical's competing program
00:54:29was released on the same day.
00:54:32The question now is,
00:54:33who will define the future of surgery?
00:54:36Relax, Mr. Vail.
00:54:38Heart Medical doesn't stand a chance.
00:54:41I hope you're right.
00:54:44For your sake.
00:54:47Didn't you say that, uh,
00:54:49if the rollout went well,
00:54:50that you'd make me chief medical officer?
00:54:53It's not a success.
00:54:55Yet.
00:54:58Enjoy tonight's launch party.
00:55:00Because if our results don't outshine Heart Medical,
00:55:03it'll be the last thing you have to celebrate
00:55:04for a long time.
00:55:05Dr. Hurt, we, uh, have a problem.
00:55:21Vail Hospital's new surgical program launches today.
00:55:24That soon?
00:55:25They're hosting a big celebration party tonight.
00:55:30It's a good thing we're ahead of...
00:55:32You're saying we're ready?
00:55:36Why would I lie?
00:55:37We've been tracking Vail's every move.
00:55:40Let him celebrate.
00:55:41It's just gonna backfire.
00:55:43How exactly does that work in our favor?
00:55:46Viv, do you remember what I told you
00:55:48when you first brought me here?
00:55:51Preston Vail's rushing this.
00:55:53He's desperate to beat us to the market.
00:55:55And?
00:55:55Their model's flawed.
00:55:57If they keep moving forward
00:55:59without realizing their structural failure
00:56:00and their approach,
00:56:02we won't have to lift a damn finger.
00:56:05And what about when it falls apart?
00:56:07Benhart Medical takes over
00:56:08as the future of modern surgery.
00:56:11So you're saying that Vail Hospital
00:56:13has been refining the prototype surgical method
00:56:15that you designed?
00:56:16It's the only way they could have gotten this far this fast.
00:56:19They're using an early draft
00:56:21full of mistakes that I won't make again.
00:56:24They don't even realize the cracks in their foundation.
00:56:26That actually makes perfect sense.
00:56:31Which means we've already won.
00:56:34Well, this is a big day for us.
00:56:36We should celebrate.
00:56:37What do you have in mind?
00:56:38Drinks?
00:56:39Not quite.
00:56:41You and I are crashing the Vail launch party tonight.
00:56:44What?
00:56:45Why?
00:56:47Let me worry about that.
00:56:48In the meantime, ensure a smooth rollout,
00:56:50finish whatever procedures you need to,
00:56:52and meet me in the lobby at 8 p.m. sharp.
00:57:10Preston, we've been through so much together.
00:57:13I know where I'm headed in life,
00:57:15and I know who I want by my side.
00:57:17Tonight, at this launch party,
00:57:20celebrating our groundbreaking surgical program,
00:57:24just like the perfect moment to ask,
00:57:27will you marry me?
00:57:33You should be fun.
00:57:37Absolutely.
00:57:39You really know how to take care of your staff, Mr. Vail?
00:57:42Stop it.
00:57:43Too bad you're taken.
00:57:44Yeah, yeah, what a shame.
00:57:46Where the fuck is Fiona?
00:57:48Told her meet me out here
00:57:49so we can go to this party together.
00:57:51Forget about her.
00:57:52She's just social climbing trash anyways.
00:57:54We'll show you a better time.
00:57:56Now that's an offer I can't refuse.
00:58:01Let's go.
00:58:01Fiona who?
00:58:05Oh, you ladies are crazy.
00:58:08Let me get you off.
00:58:16The number you have dialed is unavailable.
00:58:32Please try again later.
00:58:33Please.
00:58:34It's 20 in one day.
00:58:59All clean, all stable.
00:59:02Experimental procedures are all working, Dr. Marksman.
00:59:05You did it.
00:59:07No.
00:59:08We didn't.
00:59:11Dr. Marksman,
00:59:13you have to get to Vail's launch party pronto.
00:59:15You're already late.
00:59:16I need a change there.
00:59:17You don't have time.
00:59:18Where's Vivian?
00:59:19Taking care of something.
00:59:22She said it's really important that you be there
00:59:24and she'll meet you as soon as she can.
00:59:28Tonight, we celebrate the launch of Vail Hospital's
00:59:30revolutionary surgical program.
00:59:32What the fuck?
00:59:49You're my date and you're wasted.
00:59:51I'm sure you have plenty of other dates to accompany you.
00:59:54Yeah.
00:59:54God knows why I chose you, but I did.
00:59:56So if you want to keep your job and your status,
00:59:59sober up for God's sakes.
01:00:02Did he just wander in from the janitor's lounge?
01:00:22It's giving orderly sheep.
01:00:27Maybe he's here to bust tables.
01:00:29What are you doing at our launch party?
01:00:32You weren't invited.
01:00:34You so sure about that?
01:00:35I mean, look at you.
01:00:36This is a black tie.
01:00:37I mean, not that I'd expect you to know what that actually is.
01:00:41Look who crawled in from the gutter.
01:00:45The failed surgeon.
01:00:47The fraud.
01:00:48The nobody.
01:00:50Show up to my party in dirty scrubs, Marksman?
01:00:53I thought I told the security to keep out the criminals and the low lives.
01:00:56Guess I need to fire them too.
01:00:58Pardon me.
01:00:59I just came straight from surgery.
01:01:01Because some of us here are real surgeons.
01:01:03What are you trying to say?
01:01:05I'm saying that the failed surgeon, the fraud, the nobody, isn't me.
01:01:11I can't have him expose me in front of all these people.
01:01:18I got some nerve talking to my man Marksman like that.
01:01:21A genius like him leading our surgical team?
01:01:24You won't be able to get anywhere near our next party.
01:01:27Yeah, because it'll happen in prison.
01:01:28When you're all arrested for medical malpractice, criminal negligence, and identity theft.
01:01:35What are you talking about?
01:01:38Identity theft.
01:01:40Whose identity would we possibly be stealing?
01:01:42Yours?
01:01:44Let me give you a little bit of advice, Marksman.
01:01:46If you don't got it, at least act like you do.
01:01:50Speaking from experience.
01:01:53Look around you.
01:01:55This is the elite among the elite.
01:01:57The best of the best in the medical field.
01:02:00Just because you waltz in here and you're dirty, cheap scrubs, doesn't make you one of us.
01:02:04Good.
01:02:05I'm glad.
01:02:06Because you're all beneath me.
01:02:08Isn't that right, Dr. Marksman?
01:02:11That's enough.
01:02:12Guards!
01:02:14This former employee is threatening us.
01:02:16Kick him out.
01:02:18Touch me and you'll regret it.
01:02:22I'm here tonight with a very important guest.
01:02:25What are you dumbasses doing?
01:02:27Grab him!
01:02:28Christy!
01:02:42What the hell is this?
01:02:46Dad.
01:02:47Relax.
01:02:48I, uh...
01:02:48Relax?
01:02:49This twat came in uninvited.
01:02:52I was just kicking him out.
01:02:53Guards!
01:02:53Remove him immediately.
01:02:55President Vail, it truly is an honor to finally meet you.
01:02:57You get out of my way!
01:03:00Dad, what are you doing?
01:03:00This is, this is, this is Dr. Marksman, the genius surgeon that is leading our surgical...
01:03:05You are such a fool!
01:03:08Dad.
01:03:09What are you, what are you doing?
01:03:11Open your eyes, Preston.
01:03:13This man that you tried so hard to kick out, he is...
01:03:17Um, you are a...
01:03:20Disgraced!
01:03:21Dad!
01:03:23My hospital meant something and you turned it into a...
01:03:28Into a...
01:03:28Dad!
01:03:31Dad!
01:03:35Dad!
01:03:38President Vail, fuck away from my dad!
01:03:41Are you out of your mind?
01:03:42He is the best surgeon in this room.
01:03:44Oh, yeah, like you give a shit about saving my dad.
01:03:46I'll die before I trust you two.
01:03:48Somebody get me a real doctor!
01:03:50David!
01:03:51David!
01:03:52Do so.
01:03:53It's cold.
01:03:58Can't think of what to do next?
01:04:00Blanking?
01:04:01Can't think of a diagnosis?
01:04:02Shut up!
01:04:04Why isn't Dr. Marksman doing anything?
01:04:06This is ridiculous.
01:04:07I thought this David guy was a genius.
01:04:10Are you just standing there?
01:04:11Do something!
01:04:12What's the matter, David?
01:04:15If you need help, just ask.
01:04:18All you have to do is admit what you did.
01:04:20Right here.
01:04:21Right now.
01:04:23I can't blow my cover, but...
01:04:25What if I kill him?
01:04:27I don't know anything about surgeries.
01:04:30I don't even know what's wrong with them.
01:04:32I did medical school on Zoom.
01:04:34David, this is a matter of life and death.
01:04:38Let it go.
01:04:38Let it go.
01:04:41I...
01:04:41I...
01:04:42I...
01:04:43I can't.
01:04:45I can't do this.
01:04:47Okay, I can't...
01:04:50I can't do this.
01:04:51I can't do this without my notebook.
01:04:58That's my surgical notebook.
01:05:00He stole it from me.
01:05:01Okay.
01:05:01Okay.
01:05:08Okay.
01:05:09Okay.
01:05:10I'm gonna need a fork and a glass of water.
01:05:15Okay.
01:05:16Okay.
01:05:17Okay.
01:05:18I got it.
01:05:18I got it.
01:05:20Here.
01:05:20Take it.
01:05:21Take it.
01:05:21Take it.
01:05:21Okay.
01:05:22All right.
01:05:23Hold his head.
01:05:24But tilt it back and apply pressure here.
01:05:28Okay.
01:05:39Okay.
01:05:41Okay.
01:05:42Ready?
01:05:44Four.
01:05:45Five.
01:05:49Oh, thank God.
01:05:50How are you?
01:05:51Let up.
01:05:57Oh, that's my guy.
01:06:00Surgical genius.
01:06:02That's how Val makes history.
01:06:04Somebody get this man a medal.
01:06:06Or at least a new department.
01:06:08If you still want that chief medical officer position,
01:06:10say the word.
01:06:12Now, do I have to have somebody escort you out?
01:06:16That maneuver.
01:06:18That notebook.
01:06:19It's mine.
01:06:20Then tell them.
01:06:25Where is he going?
01:06:27Maybe he's headed to develop another fake surgery program at another fake hospital.
01:06:32Leaving so soon, Dr. PJs?
01:06:34Say, why don't you come back when you've actually saved a life?
01:06:37That procedure David used.
01:06:38That procedure David used, I invented it.
01:06:44What kind of crack are you smoking?
01:06:47He's delusional.
01:06:49Somebody seriously check this guy's medical license.
01:06:52The notebook he used to save your father.
01:06:55That's mine.
01:06:56My handwriting.
01:06:57My handwriting.
01:06:58My theories.
01:06:59I'm just pissed because he did what you couldn't.
01:07:03I'm pissed because you used rudimentary theories as innovation.
01:07:08And when it fails, and it will, you're not the ones that'll pay for it.
01:07:15The patients will.
01:07:16Well, you can't prove that.
01:07:17Not yet.
01:07:19But you can't fake medicine.
01:07:23Medicine and science always tell the truth.
01:07:27Our three's vitals has just dropped.
01:07:31We've got uncontrolled bleeding.
01:07:32Second patient today.
01:07:33Same issue.
01:07:34Vessel ligation failed mid-operation.
01:07:37These techniques aren't viable.
01:07:38The veil method doesn't hold under stress.
01:07:42I mean, come on.
01:07:43Tonight proves it.
01:07:44We're ahead of every surgical institute in the country.
01:07:55I'll be right back.
01:07:56Just coordinating with the team.
01:08:01Talk to me.
01:08:02The vascular bundle clamp maneuver failed again.
01:08:04This is the second patient bleeding out tonight.
01:08:09Use the compression step.
01:08:11That only works in controlled scenarios.
01:08:13We told you these procedures weren't fully tested.
01:08:17Look, just follow the notes.
01:08:22I designed those techniques for 101 guidance.
01:08:25Not mass implementation.
01:08:27Without calibration.
01:08:29It's unstable.
01:08:31It's dangerous.
01:08:32They tried to commercialize your success without you.
01:08:35Now people are paying for it.
01:08:36All good?
01:08:39Of course.
01:08:41Just routine coordination.
01:08:43Routine coordination doesn't usually include blood loss.
01:08:46Your surgical program is failing.
01:08:48Patients are suffering.
01:08:49You've been out of the field for months.
01:08:52You wouldn't know.
01:08:53Yeah, I would know.
01:08:54Because the procedures that you're butchering, I invented.
01:08:58And I'm the only one in this room who can fix the mess that you made in your surgical wing.
01:09:01Bullshit.
01:09:02Bullshit.
01:09:03Oh, yes.
01:09:10This is Dr. Marksman.
01:09:11Yeah, connect me with the surgical coordinator immediately.
01:09:15Okay, listen very carefully.
01:09:17Your patient in OR3 is experiencing a catastrophic hemorrhaging because the vascular bundle clamp technique was improperly executed.
01:09:27No, you need to perform a Marksman-modified Pringle maneuver with selective hepatic arterial legation,
01:09:33followed by a rapid-sequence vascular anatomosis using interrupted 6-0 proline sutures.
01:09:39Yes.
01:09:41Yes.
01:09:43Yes.
01:09:45How do we even know he made a phone call?
01:09:49His whole thing is performance, a charade.
01:09:51You stole his methods.
01:09:53This entire launch party is built upon stolen work and guesswork.
01:09:58Uh, that's a lie.
01:10:00Then prove me wrong.
01:10:01Show them all a technique that I didn't create.
01:10:06Why would we believe anything he says?
01:10:09He was fired.
01:10:10He's humiliated.
01:10:11You're right, I was fired.
01:10:13And the same procedures I pioneered were renamed and sold back to the board as revolutionary.
01:10:18You know what?
01:10:19This is pathetic.
01:10:21He's just jealous.
01:10:22He missed his shot.
01:10:23Is that what you told yourself?
01:10:25When you snuck back into my office and stole my surgical journal?
01:10:29Even if that were true, this isn't the time or the place.
01:10:33I think it's exactly the time and place.
01:10:39I just got off the phone with our surgical coordinator.
01:10:50And thanks to Adrian's guidance, our surgeons were able to stabilize the coding patients.
01:10:57Adrian just cleaned up your mess.
01:10:59You took this good man's techniques that weren't ready, and you fired him.
01:11:05The one person who could make them safe.
01:11:09Dad, you don't see the full picture here.
01:11:13Oh, I'm seeing it perfectly well.
01:11:15This hospital was built on trust and integrity, and you've disgraced them both.
01:11:20Your father nearly died because of your ego.
01:11:25Because of his lies.
01:11:28You saved me.
01:11:30You saved Nelson.
01:11:32And now, you can save Vale.
01:11:34I tried to warn you all.
01:11:37No one listened.
01:11:38Well, they're listening now.
01:11:40You deserve to be at Vale more than either of those two.
01:11:45And probably even more than me.
01:11:46It was a mistake to let you go.
01:11:50Months ago, I was fired from Vale Hospital with procedures still in development.
01:11:55They weren't ready.
01:11:57They needed supervision.
01:11:59Precision.
01:12:01Development.
01:12:02Instead, someone took my notes and tried to fast-track them for glory.
01:12:06Oh, you can't prove that.
01:12:08Security footage.
01:12:09Of you stealing Adrian's notebook from the hospital.
01:12:17Already submitted to the board.
01:12:20I built on what he started.
01:12:23Okay?
01:12:23I didn't steal.
01:12:25I enhanced it.
01:12:27Then why were patients about to die?
01:12:30You falsified rollout readiness?
01:12:33He did more than that.
01:12:34He put lives at risk to prove that he was smarter than the guy that actually created the program.
01:12:40We're going to need to open a formal investigation on this.
01:12:44This is absurd.
01:12:45This was supposed to be our night.
01:12:47Oh, it's your night.
01:12:49Just not the way you thought it'd be.
01:12:52You lied to me.
01:12:54I didn't lie.
01:12:55I simplified the truth.
01:12:57Simplify?
01:12:57You could have caused serious harm to countless innocent people.
01:13:02You nearly killed the president of the hospital.
01:13:05You passed up experimental procedures as launch ready.
01:13:08That's malpractice.
01:13:10They worked.
01:13:11Nelson's alive.
01:13:12Look, the patients, they're alive.
01:13:14Yeah, because of me.
01:13:16Those methods require sequential tensioning, breath control, special clamp techniques.
01:13:21Getting one beat wrong is the difference between life and death.
01:13:24Wait, these really are your techniques?
01:13:26I tested them for years.
01:13:29It was never meant for mass rollout.
01:13:31Not without training.
01:13:33You're rewriting history?
01:13:35No, you tried to erase him from it.
01:13:38Adrian Marksman was the reason that Vale's program had a future.
01:13:42And without him, it won't.
01:13:45This is absurd!
01:13:46You're siding with this disgraced former resident?
01:13:50He's not disgraced, son.
01:13:52You are.
01:13:52You hijacked a program you didn't understand.
01:13:56And then when your ego wasn't enough, you propped up this fraud.
01:14:04Taking his side, Dad?
01:14:06I'm your son.
01:14:07I'm taking the side of truth.
01:14:10And so will the board.
01:14:11We will be convening an emergency session tomorrow morning.
01:14:14Until then, both of you are suspended from all surgical and administrative duties.
01:14:20Suspended?
01:14:20No, no, no.
01:14:21You can't do that.
01:14:22You don't understand the politics of running a hospital.
01:14:24We understand the liability.
01:14:26That's enough.
01:14:29Mr. Preston Vale.
01:14:30Dr. David Marksman.
01:14:32Come with us.
01:14:34Dad.
01:14:35You're not going to let them drag me out like this.
01:14:37I'm your son.
01:14:38No.
01:14:38Don't you touch me.
01:14:39You're not a child.
01:14:41Hey!
01:14:41Dad!
01:14:42I'm your son.
01:14:42I'm your son.
01:14:42I'm your son.
01:14:43Please.
01:14:43I'm your son.
01:14:44Son of a...
01:14:45Dad!
01:14:45I'm your son.
01:14:45Do something.
01:14:46Get off me.
01:14:47I'm your son.
01:14:47I'm your son.
01:14:48I'm your son.
01:14:48I'm your son.
01:14:48I'm your son.
01:14:48I'm your son.
01:14:49You're not a child.
01:14:49You're not my responsibility.
01:14:58Trim, please.
01:14:59I made a mistake.
01:15:00I see that now.
01:15:01I should have believed in you.
01:15:03I should have stood by you.
01:15:05You were right about everything.
01:15:10Just give me a second, Trim.
01:15:12Please.
01:15:14I still love you.
01:15:17Love?
01:15:18You traded him the second someone flashier walked by.
01:15:21You don't understand.
01:15:24I thought he was finished.
01:15:26I thought he had nothing left.
01:15:28So you sold him out.
01:15:30Mocked him.
01:15:31Over and over again.
01:15:33I was scared.
01:15:35I...
01:15:35I didn't know what to do.
01:15:37Oh, you knew.
01:15:38You just didn't care.
01:15:40Not until you realized that the horse you bet on turned out to be a loser.
01:15:44Please.
01:15:46Say something.
01:15:48Anything.
01:15:50You had your chance, Fiona.
01:15:52And you spent it holding Preston's arm while they tried to bury me alive.
01:15:55You always belonged in my operating room.
01:16:07And I should have fought harder to keep you if I'd only known what was going on behind the scenes.
01:16:12The board will vote that Preston is removed from the board.
01:16:17And David will never go near another patient again.
01:16:22We're rebuilding.
01:16:23And I want you back as Vale's chief of experimental surgery.
01:16:29I'm sorry, Dr. Vale.
01:16:33You had your chance, too.
01:16:35I'm not the same man that you fired.
01:16:38Well, all the more reason we need you back at Vale.
01:16:42Adrian 2.0.
01:16:43I'm not coming back.
01:16:47You're choosing her?
01:16:49Our rival?
01:16:50You arrogant little ingrate.
01:16:52I open the door for you and you slam it in my face.
01:16:57Just typical.
01:16:59Just when you had your moment, you turned your back on it for, for what, her?
01:17:04She's just going to use you up and toss you aside like everyone else.
01:17:08Oh, projecting much, Nelson.
01:17:12Get me out of here.
01:17:14Now!
01:17:14Oh!
01:17:19Oh!
01:17:22Corma has good timing.
01:17:35Speaking of timing, we should get back to work.
01:17:39We have lives to save.
01:17:40Hey!
01:17:42Not so fast, Mr. Hotshot Genius Surgeon.
01:17:47I still owe you that extra special bonus.
01:17:50Now?
01:17:53We'll just spend a time like the present.
01:18:03This is what victory tastes like.
01:18:05It's not bad.
01:18:07I need a second opinion.
01:18:11Well, I've got all night.
01:18:13And you're not leaving this room until I've properly celebrated my genius surgeon.
01:18:18Should I be afraid of a performance review?
01:18:21You're already exceeding expectations.
01:18:24But I am very thorough.
01:18:33Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to me.
01:18:38Besides meeting you, of course.
01:18:40I'm going to be happy.
01:18:46I'm going to be happy.
01:18:47No problem.
01:18:50I am not.
01:18:50Hey.
01:18:52Bye.
01:18:55Bye.
01:18:56Bye.
01:18:58Bye.
01:18:59Bye.
01:19:00Bye.
01:19:01Bye.
01:19:03Bye.
01:19:04Bye.
01:19:06Bye.
01:19:07Bye.
01:19:08Bye.
01:19:08Bye.
