Previously on 'All Saints'...

Von, is it you?

It's Victoria. Victoria Carlton.

Is Lucy hurt?

VON: Fine. She's fine.

JACK: Who's Lucy?

Mitch Stevens' daughter.

I was just explaining to Ross

that we can't really tell anyone
that we're a couple.

How many times do I have to tell you?
Leave me alone.

Charlotte, you can't cure her pain.
She likes it.

How could you accuse me
of running that woman over?

BETH: You'd better leave.

Listen - you better
stay the hell away from me, alright?

If you threaten me again,
I'll call the police.

This can't be it.

No, we're in the right place.

An anonymous caller said
there was a kid on the bike.

Train passed
and the kid was gone.

They either got hit
or fell off.

Anonymous caller?

It's gotta be a hoax.

If a train hit anyone, surely
the driver would have phoned it in.

Only if he saw them.

Look for any blood
or any shreds of clothing.

Pencil case?

What is it?

Cate?

It's a smashed-up bike.

Operations, this is car 978.

We're unable to locate the patient
but we have found a wrecked bicycle.

We're going to continue
the search on foot.

RADIO: Copy that, 978

(yells) Hello, Ambulance Service.
Anyone hear me?

Sasha! I found her!
Quick, get down here!

Can you open your eyes for me?

Come on, open your eyes for me.

What's your name?

Erin.

Erin, you just hang in there,
alright?

Okay. She's got a pulse.

Can you roll her over really slowly?

Whoa, whoa. Stop.

THEME MUSIC

I can't get a line in
she's so shut down.

Can't we transport her
and keep trying on the way?

What did your training teach you?

That we can't move her until we
cannulate and get fluids through.

Correct. That's exactly
what we'll do.

It's going to take another
20 minutes to get up there, Cate.

I'm not even going to attempt that.

So how do we get her out of here?

Go back up the way we came
and bring the ambulance here.

Thank God, I'm in.

Good.

Alright.
I'll push these fluids through.

You go as fast as you can, alright?

Why don't you tell Nana about the
school play, about what you're doing?

I'm a jellyfish.

Ooh, a jellyfish!

I have lots of tentacles.

My goodness!
I can't wait to see that.

Give Nan a kiss. Come here.

We'll see her after school.

I'm going away.

Wait for Terri, darling.

I'll come back in my break.
Is there anything you need?

No, thank you.

And we'll talk about everything else
after you've been discharged.

What is it?

I'm going to have to stay in here
a bit longer.

KNOCK ON WINDOW

Terri, come on.

Go, go.

It can wait.

Say goodbye to Nana. Come on.

Bye!

Bye-bye, darling.

How is she?

These fluids aren't going to be able
to hold her for the transfer.

I can't get her systolic above 90.

Let's at least get her
onto the board.

She's having multifocal ectopics.
If we move her, she'll crash.

We've got to do something.

Get the MAST suit.

What?

Sasha, we're losing her.

Yeah, but it's not recommended
unless you're...

It's not recommended
to fall off a bridge.

There aren't other options.

What if she's got
upper body internal...

This isn't a debate. It's an order.

Get the MAST suit now.

You got a problem?

What?

Problem.

Vincent's notes on the patient
last night. What is that?

Foul-smelling and puslike.

Great.

Sorry I'm late. Didn't know you had
to queue to drop kids at school.

Did I miss anything?

We're short a nurse
the ADON has sent a replacement

who's never had
any emergency experience.

Keep her in Sub-Acute.
Can we go through the beds?

Just what we need.

What?

A nurse replacement with no
experience, no Vincent, no Charlotte.

It's gonna be a great day.

Where's Charlotte?

She's taken leave
to go to court with Vincent,

like her being there will make
a difference to the outcome.

Yeah. He'll get off with or without
her moral support.

Oh, come on, Jess. You don't really
think he assaulted that woman?

I don't see what Beth gains
by lying.

Oh, it's your best friend Beth,
now, is it?

She was my patient.
I got to know her.

For a few hours, Jess.
That doesn't count.

She seemed like a nice person,
that's all.

She must have some enemies
or the woman's not human.

Well, if she does,
my lawyer couldn't find one.

What about exes?

None of them came forward, although
that speaks volumes in itself.

Desperate.

Unfortunately, she never used her
home phone or her mobile to call me,

otherwise we'd be able to
shoot holes in her case.

Vincent, why don't I just say
that you were with me that night?

Because I wasn't.

I know that, but...

No, Charlotte.
Thanks for your help. No.

Hello, stranger.

Oh, great. You forgot
your favourite patient already.

Ross, hello.
You're not sick again, are you?

No, I'm totally cool.

Early for an Outpatient's
appointment, so I thought I'd say hi.

Right, well, hi.

Busy day, I guess.

As always.

Anything interesting?

Oh, you know. Just the usual.

Ambos arriving.

Teenage girl, query spinal injuries,

leg fractures
after falling from a bridge.

Resus is free.

Thanks, Von.
Sorry, Ross, I've gotta go.

Erin Carmichael, 15, injured
falling from a railway bridge,

query spinal injuries.

Open fracture of the upper right limb
with arterial bleed,

possible fractured right lower limb
and right wrist

and possible dislocated left knee.

BP was unsustainable, less than 90.

Why did you use a MAST suit?

Because she was bleeding and the
fluids weren't touching her BP.

Shouldn't have wasted time.
You could have got here much sooner.

How can I assess the injuries?

It's all in there.

VON: Want a surgical consult?

No point until
we get this off.

Ready?

One, two, three.

Anyone used one of these before?

I have.
VON: Yep.

No, I haven't.

Good, because Jack's gonna need
all the help he can with this thing.

So you two, pay attention.

No problem, Frank.

He doesn't seem too happy.

Alright, Sasha.
We don't need to justify ourselves.

Give me some numbers, please.

BP 96/45, heart rate 122.

Sats 98%.

Okay. Pupils equal, size 2,
and reacting to light.

Okay. Now, pay attention.

She'll need a full trauma series
of X-rays.

She needs surgery urgently

so that we can lavage and repair
the compound fractures.

But there's a couple of obstacles
in our way. Jack?

We can only remove the suit in
stages, one compartment at a time,

to prevent shock, so we...

So?

We set a sodi bic infusion,
release air from the suit gradually

and monitor her like a hawk.

Right, remember,
the longer she's in this suit,

the more likely she is to lose her
limbs through lack of circulation.

WOMAN ON TAPE: Please.
Please, help me. Please help me.

I think... I think he's outside.

Oh, God, oh, God, he's outside.

OPERATOR: What's your name?

Beth Chandler.

Please hurry,
I think he's coming back.

Your address?

It's, uh... 6 Paxton Terrace,
Ridley Hills.

Are you sending the police?
I need... I need the police.

He said he was going to kill me.

Beth, who threatened you?

Him! He was screaming.
I can hear him. I can hear him.

He's still out there.

He's walking
down the side of the house.

Keep the phone line open.
Are your doors and windows closed?

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, I'm bleeding.

There's all this blood.

Where's the blood coming from?

I don't know.

It's coming from my head
somewhere.

(grunts in pain)

Beth, what's happening?
Are you there?

Please, please,
he's going to hurt me again.

Do you know this man's identity?

Yes. His name's Vincent,
Vincent Hughes.

LAWYER: The injuries from
the nightclub collapse

kept you in hospital
for several days.

You then visited Dr Hughes at work
and thanked him for saving your life.

Is that correct?

Yes.

How did the defendant respond?

At the hospital, he seemed normal.

But after that, um...

I think he must have misunderstood
my intentions,

because he started turning up
whenever I was

and calling me all the time.

Did you reject his advances?

Yes.

I told him to leave me alone,
and he wouldn't listen.

I tried being polite,
I tried ignoring him.

Then I started to get scared.

Did the defendant ever act
in a violent manner toward you?

No, not before last week,

the night that I called the police.

Please tell the court
what led to that incident.

Dr Hughes arrived at my house
in a rage.

He started threatening me
and accusing me of... things.

Strange things.

It was bizarre.

Please explain
what you mean by "bizarre".

He accused me of cleaning his house.

JACK: Okay. Been stable
for 15 minutes.

Have we got the sodi bic set?

VON: Ready when you are.

Might let that last bag
of Hartmanns go through,

make sure she's got enough fluids.

Stop procrastinating, Jack.

We're not going to get anywhere
until we deflate this thing.

How can I make that call?

I can't examine her and I don't know
what's going on under there.

There's only one way to find out.

Okay. Ready?

Good to go.

Okay. Let's do it.

Releasing the valve now.

Systolic's dropping.
98, 97...

..94 - seven points.

Okay, that's it.

Stopping deflation.

Push those fluids.

Going as fast as I can.
Still dropping.

88, 87.

Okay. Should I reinflate?

Return it to the previous pressure.

Are we ever going
to get this suit off her?

Supposed to get her peripheral
circulation going, but...

We wait until she's stable
and then we try again,

and we keep trying
until Theatre calls.

Suits should be banned.

You're basing that on what?
You've never used one before.

Systolic's back.

It's been argued for years.

Most people brought in
like this leave in body bags.

And most of them, Jack, would have
been dead on arrival without one.

(loudly) Systolic's back, 96.

Okay. I'm at the marker.

Stopping reinflation.

Well, as far as I'm concerned,
if you want a patient to survive

then you bring them to hospital
in the shortest time possible.

And there are exceptions
to every rule.

Sorry, I didn't want to interrupt.

No, it's fine.
We'd finished talking...

..or he had.

That wasn't your surgeon?

That was Dr Hewitt.
He's an oncologist.

When they operated,
they found a growth on my pancreas.

Was it benign?

Malignant.

What are you going to do?

Well, he wants to do
some sort of scan today

to see if it's spread anywhere.

Do you want me to come?

No, it's alright. I'm fine.
Don't fuss, Terri.

Okay. Don't forget your Outpatients
appointment, Mr Hegarty.

Good timing.
I thought you had an appointment.

They're running way behind.

Thought I'd do something interesting
while waiting.

Ross, you know the rules.
Only patient or family in here.

Come on.

Dan! How you doing, mate?

You remember Ross?

Oh, yeah. Carrot-top.

Oh, yeah.

Jessie. Sweetheart, baby,
love of my life.

Could you do me a favour, baby?
Could you sign off on some morphine?

Sure.
So are you two still on?

You can't be in here, Ross.
Come on, let's go.

Out you go.

God, you're a pain.
What is it, snagglepuss?

Shut up!

What's he doing back here?

Is he relapsing
or is he pining for you?

He's actually managing his illness

and he's grateful to us
for changing his life.

Why wouldn't he want to visit?

There are a few new
radiation therapies.

For example,

shrinking non-resectable tumours
with a view to later surgery,

and depending on how big it is
or where it's located

or how far it's spread,

pancreatic cancer is not necessarily
the death sentence it used to be.

I was hoping you'd say that.

Although if it has spread
to other organs, she's cactus.

What bed's she in?

It's someone I know.

Oh, sorry.

Sorry, Terri.

LAWYER: You say my client
threatened you,

but later that night when he
allegedly returned to your home

how did he gain entry?

I thought he was someone else.

Answer the question, please.

I opened the door but...

You opened the door?

You mustn't have had a single care

to open the door without checking
who's there late at night.

And isn't it true, Ms Chandler,

my client told police
you were harassing him

weeks before you made claims?

No, it's not true.

I have a copy
of the police report here.

No, no.

I mean, it's true
that he reported me, but...

"It's true," "It's not true."

I think you find it hard
to tell the truth at all.

A simple yes or no
is all that's required.

Ms Chandler...

I'm sorry, it still upsets me
so much, what happened...

Did it upset you enough
to want to take revenge on my client?

I don't know why he told the police
I was harassing him,

and I don't care...

Answer the question, please.

How would you feel
if the police came into your house

and asked you
if you ran over a pregnant woman?

I bet you you'd feel
a little bit upset too.

It would upset anyone
with a decent bone in their body.

Your Honour...

Ms Chandler, please just answer
the question asked by counsel.

The poor doctor lost her baby
in that accident

and he tried to blame me.

I'm calling a break

to allow the witness
time to collect herself.

Court will reconvene in one hour.

Ross...

A friend of mine's here.
What?

I can't believe it.

I got back to Outpatients
then I got a call.

Erin Carmichael -
she fell off a bridge.

Erin's a friend of yours?

From school.
How is she? Can I see her?

Look, I don't know. Have a seat
and I'll find out for you.

She's really a close friend.
Yeah, okay.

Sit down.
I'll be back soon.

Jess, um...

That's very strange.

Why?

I was still on the phone
to Erin's mother when he arrived.

See what you can find out for me.

CATE: Meg Newington, mid-50s.

Patient slipped
while washing a driveway.

There's pain and bruising to the
left wrist and possible fracture.

BP's a bit high
and heart rate's at 110.

She's had morphine as per protocol.
We've applied a cardboard splint.

Okay. Hi, Meg.

I'm Jess.

Just rest here for a second, and
I'll come back and take your details.

We don't have a bed.
I'll speak to Terri.

Great. How long's it going to take?
Not sure. I'll find out.

You after me?

No, I was just...

How is she?

(sighs) Every time she improves,

we let a bit of air out
and she takes a dive again.

Do you think I did the wrong thing?

It's too early to say.

It's curious how things change,
though, isn't it?

I know we used to scream blue murder
about them,

but I wasn't an ambo then.

It's different when you're
actually out there in the situation.

Sash, we're probably going
to be moving Meg to St Angela's,

so can you just not do paperwork
until we can get a definite answer.

Sorry.

Cate.

You picked up Erin Carmichael
this morning, yeah?

Yeah. Why?

Could you run me
through the details again?

Sure.

How is she?

I can't give you any information
about Erin yet, Ross.

She's not dead or anything?

Who told you about the accident?

Just a mate. He called, like I said.

I'm going to have to get
the name of your friend.

I need to tell the police.
Why?

Because your friend seems to know
more than he should,

so maybe your friend
witnessed something this morning.

Probably not.
If I could see her...

You can ask permission
when her mother arrives.

Ross? Your friend's name?

Ross?!

I'm sorry.

Wait.

I don't have time for this.

I believe you should speak honestly.
Why don't you spit it out?

Fair enough.

When you put Erin in the MAST suit,

did you think what might happen
once she got here?

Honestly?
Mmm.

No.

I was too busy working out how
to keep her alive.

Well, she could have been
in Theatre right now.

I did not have a choice, Jack.

I think you took the easy option

and now we're
dealing with the consequences.

Easy? Are you kidding me?

I've worked in emergency departments,
Jack.

Hell, I've even worked in this one.

If you think I spend my time

coming up with plans
to wreck your day,

then you're sadly mistaken.

I would have thought
you'd know me better than that.

Sorry. Okay?

It's just...

..we're really struggling in there

and I don't think
we're going to save her.

Jack, Erin Carmichael's mum's
arrived.

JACK: Now we need to take this
one little step at a time.

MUM: What's this thing
that you've got her in?

The ambulance officers were afraid
that Erin was losing too much blood.

This suit is designed
to prevent any further blood loss

while the patient is transferred
to hospital.

Our challenge is
to gradually remove it

and get her circulation
to normal.

Can't you just cut it off?

It's a very complicated process
and it needs to be done very slowly

so we don't flood Erin's body
with toxins.

Don't tell me, just do it, please.
Just fix her.

I just don't understand.

Why wasn't she at school?

Why would she be riding alone on
the railway track, for goodness sake?

Maybe she wasn't alone.

Why, was somebody found with her?

No.

Yes, I realise that, but as NUM
of Emergency, I was hoping that...

Well, yes, of course I'm going to
speak to Victoria about it,

but she's a layman.

She doesn't...
KNOCK AT DOOR

Right. Well, listen, Dr Hewitt,
thanks so much.

You've been just terrific.

Making yourself popular.
Don't ask.

Is there a problem?

No, I'm on a break.

I thought you might like
to have lunch.

No.

Victoria's been diagnosed
with pancreatic cancer.

Oh, hell.

Lucy thinks
she's coming home tomorrow night.

I rang Outpatients, and guess what?

Ross did have an appointment
but he didn't show up.

Mrs Buckley?

Non-specific abdo pain, category 4.

Apparently he's been missing
a few of his appointments

and he's been noncompliant.

You reckon he was on the bridge
with Erin and he left?

I don't know, maybe.

But if I'm wrong, then...

Jess, the guy's got something
going on.

You don't do a runner like he did
without having something to hide.

Yeah, I guess.
But he's just a kid.

Let the cops handle it.

Tell them and let them deal with it.

Hey, can you not say anything
to anyone just yet?

Lips are sealed, Jesse.

Where have you been?
I thought you'd deserted me.

I considered it.

Why didn't you tell me?

Do you realise how awful it was to
have that come up without warning?

Charlotte, I didn't know
it was going to come up.

My lawyer certainly
wasn't going to bring it up.

I'm really sorry.

I just wanted to scream,
Vincent.

I mean, hearing that woman
crying over my baby...

You promise me no more secrets?

What gave you the crazy idea
it was her in the first place?

She was at the pub
the night before you got hurt.

And?

And she was watching us, Charlotte...

..and she just seemed...

I don't know, maybe it was
all some kind of major coincidence,

but if it was her then was my fault
that she was hanging around.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because she didn't do it, you know?

I accused an innocent woman
of running you over.

That's when I started thinking
maybe I was losing my mind.

Are you listening to yourself?

Vincent, we've got 10 minutes left.
We need to prepare.

Thank you.

See if you can sit up for me.

That's the way.

Oh, no.

No!
Are you feeling nauseous?

Yes.

That's no good.

It's alright, Meg.
Just lie back.

You'll feel better soon.

Terri, what's happening
with Meg Newington?

What's the problem?
We can't unload her.

She's dizzy and nauseous
whenever she sits up.

We're stuck
until she's off the trolley.

We don't have a bed yet.
Won't be long.

God, Emergency nurses
are up themselves sometimes.

You can't make the bed manager find
a bed. Don't give her a hard time.

And whose side are you on?

Terri, has your friend
had his MRI test yet?

It's a her.

No, I don't know if she's gone
for an MRI or a CAT scan.

Her specialist won't tell me.
Good for him.

I'm glad there's a fellow with ethics
left in this tawdry profession.

Who is it?

Jasper Hewitt.

Champion fellow.

Listen, the registrars are flat out.
Can we can free up a bed?

I've booted number 12.

An addict looking for some...
URGENT BEEPING

Frank.

What's happening?

She's crashing.
Her systolic dropped 20 points.

She's going to Theatre.

She's not going anywhere. She's
too unstable. Hook her back up.

CATE: I'll help.

You're not working here today.
I can document...

No. Go back to your patient.
Von, can you...

Yeah.
..pump that blood.

Cate, there's a bed
for Mrs Newington.

JACK: Can't get a BP reading.
Bloody great.

Cate, don't worry about it.

I'll do it.

What's going on?
What's happened to her?

Mrs Carmichael...

No, look, what is happening?

Mrs Carmichael, just come
over here...

I need to know what they're doing.

Your daughter's heart's reacting from
the toxins that are in her system.

They're just trying
to counteract that. It's okay.

You're an ambulance officer?

Yeah, that's right.

Are you the one that found her?

Yeah, I am.

You saved her life.

They told me about that suit thing
that you put on her and saved her.

Thank you. Thank you so much.

JACK: We released the bladder
per protocol, waited 10 minutes.

Then Theatre called,
so we packed her up, ready to go.

And during that 10 minutes
she was stable?

Yes.

And you didn't buggerise around
with anything else?

No, nothing.

No bowel sounds.

What's her airway pressure?

50.

Been steadily climbing.

Nelson, a pressure reading
on her IDC.

Frank, if she's bleeding internally,

shouldn't we be reinflating
the abdo bladder?

Patience, Jack.

Von, I need a sterile field
with size 20 scalpel.

Got it.

What's wrong with her?

Disappear, Cate.

What are you setting up for?

Unless I missed my guess, she has
abdominal compartment syndrome,

which means we need to do
an abbreviated laparotomy.

I missed it.

ADC pressure's at 44, Frank.

Right. Well, let's open her up
and relieve that pressure.

RADIO: Car 978...
Is this going to work, Frank?

We're about to find out, Cate.

SASHA: That's us. Let's go.

I want to see
if she's going to be okay.

Cate, we've got to go.

978, we're clear.

LAWYER: Dr, you believe the plaintiff
has been stalking you for some time.

You also believe Elizabeth Chandler
fabricated symptoms

in order to be treated by you?

That's correct.

Why, then, didn't you apply
for an AVO against the plaintiff?

Because when I reported
my concerns to the police,

they didn't take them seriously.

On the night Ms Chandler saw you
in the bar with Dr Beaumont,

your keys went missing, didn't they?

That's correct.

Did you find those keys?

Yes, I did.

It was after an all-night shift
at the hospital.

I came home and found the keys
on my dining room table.

The table had also been set for two.

Would you like to tell the court what
else you found when you got home?

My house had been cleaned
in my absence.

Anything else?

Yes.

A photograph of myself
and my ex-wife had been torn up

and placed on my bed.

A photograph of you and your ex-wife,
Dr Charlotte Beaumont?

That's correct.

The same woman Ms Chandler
saw you with in the bar?

Yes.

And what did you deduce from this?

I believed that
Ms Chandler had stolen my keys,

had entered my house and torn up
the photograph as an act of revenge.

Ross Weston, increasing
respiratory distress in transit.

His heart and BP are stable
but his resps are shallow and rapid.

He's got peaked T waves.

Frank, this patient suffers from
Hypokalaemic Periodic Paralysis.

He was diagnosed here recently.

FRANK: Not by me.
No, Jack treated him.

He's still an outpatient, though.

Take him to Acute,
chase up his file.

Where did you find him?

Collapsed on the street.

Did he say anything?

About what?

Never mind.

Skipping Outpatient appointments
is a sure way get back here.

Were you doing exercise
when this happened?

Apparently some hurdling
and pole-vaulting earlier

in the waiting room.

Could that have brought it on?

Do another 12 lead ECG.

Let me know if there are
any more peaked T waves.

Yep.

How's he doing?

Given himself a bit of a fright,
I think.

That's not all he's done.

Where are they taking her?

To Theatre, I suppose.

I told you to stay away
from my daughter

and now look what's happened!

You better pray that
she comes through this all right.

I wasn't there.

Are you going to be okay?

Dr Hughes.

Would you say that violence
against women was in your nature?

Absolutely not.

To hit Ms Chandler in a fit of rage

would be totally
out of character for you?

Yes. Yes, it would.

Is it true that
you recently survived a plane crash?

Uh... yes.

You lost a colleague
in that accident?

That's correct.

One that you cared for?

Yes.

This colleague of yours,
Dr Grace Connelly.

You were in a sexual relationship
with her, were you not?

Uh... briefly.

Were you in love with her?

Objection! This line of questioning
is irrelevant.

Your Honour, the defendant's
state of mind with regard to women

is very relevant
to his recent actions.

I'll allow the question.

Were you in love with Grace Connelly?

The relationship was very new and...

Answer the question, Dr Hughes.

Yes. Yes, I was.

Dr Hughes, is it true
following a major trauma

or the loss of a loved one,

a person may start
behaving out of character?

That can happen, yes,
but in this case...

So you have not been acting
out of character

since the loss of your lover?

No.

Well, tell us...

..in the six months
since Dr Connelly's death,

how many sexual partners
have you had?

Objection, Your Honour.

Overruled.

Dr Hughes?

How many sexual partners
have you had?

I don't know.

You've lost count?

I haven't been counting.

Would you say more than five?

Yes.

More than 10?

Yes.

More than 50?

Don't be ridiculous.

So, somewhere between 10 and 50.

But earlier today,
a witness told us

that it was out of character
for you to have one-night stands

as you did with Ms Chandler.

Is that true?

Obviously not.

So the witness was lying.

No.

I'm confused, Dr Hughes.
I'm going to ask you again.

In view of your recent bereavement,

was it out of character
for you to pursue casual sex?

Yes. Yes, it was.

In light of that, I ask again.

Was it out of character for you
to display violence against women?

Dr Hughes?

Stop, please. Please, please.

I want this to stop.
I'm going to drop all charges.

Ms Chandler, you're not in
a position to drop the charges.

The charges have been laid
by the police prosecutor.

You may withdraw your complaint
against the defendant if you wish.

Then I will withdraw my complaint.

I'm sorry to have wasted
all your time,

but now I understand why
he's been acting the way he has

and I think he needs help, not this.

I don't want to see him
lose his career.

What does that mean?

It means the case
has been dismissed,

not that you've been found innocent.

They still think I did it!
That doesn't matter.

It matters to me.
This was all a game to her.

Consider yourself very lucky
to get off so lightly.

And in the future, I suggest
you fully brief your counsel.

Come on. It's not worth it, trust me.

Terri?
Yeah?

I just had a chat
with an old colleague of mine,

a Dr Hewitt, an oncologist.

You know him?

Yeah.

Apparently he has a patient,
an elderly woman,

who has a growth on her pancreas,
malignant in biopsy.

Unfortunately the MRI showed
secondary masses

in her liver and lungs.

So they'll be recommending surgery.

Thanks.

What happened this morning, Ross?

When?

When Erin fell off the bridge.

She had an accident.

And you really don't know
anything about it?

No.

Ross, somebody was with her.

Maybe it was this mate of yours
who rang?

What did he say?

I don't know.

He just called and said
something about an accident.

I hear the ambos had
a pretty hard time finding her,

so whoever rang
didn't give them much to go on.

I didn't...

You didn't know what?

Ross?

There was plenty of time.
She didn't need to run.

Maybe she got scared.

The train was miles away.
I was shouting at her not to panic.

Sounds to me like
she wasn't the only one who panicked.

I called the ambos.
What was I supposed to do?

You could have made it easier
for everyone if you'd stayed.

They would have found Erin faster.

I couldn't.

Why not?

You saw her mum. She hates my guts.

We wouldn't have even been there

if she hadn't banned me and Erin
from seeing each other.

I figured no-one would spot us
down at the railway line.

Will she be okay?

We don't know.

Nelson, is there any word on Erin?

Uh, no. I haven't heard anything
since she went to Theatre.

At least she got there.

Those suits are being removed
from ambo protocols.

If this happened in a week's time,
no choice.

You made a good call, Cate.

If she makes it.
It's not a done deal yet.

It took us so long to get her going,

she probably would have died
without it.

Isn't that so, Dr Quaid?

Yeah. Good call.

Smile, Cate.

Come on, praise from Frank -

you've got more chance
of winning the lottery.

I just wish I could have stayed
and seen it through.

Cate, are you coming or what?

If she pulls through,
she'll be able to support his story.

Otherwise Ross could be charged.

When will we know
if she's pulled through?

Good news. Erin's in recovery.
Just spoke to Theatre.

Anyone know
what happened to Hughes today?

Yeah. Case was dropped.

Good. I might have a proper doctor
to work with tomorrow.

Until then, could you sign these,
please?

Certainly.

Hey, Jess. What's the story
with carrot-top this morning?

He was putting on an act.
You would have fallen for it too.

Yeah, probably.

Point is, a few hours with a patient
doesn't make you an expert on them.

Vincent got off today,
and you already had him guilty.

Okay. I'll have dinner ready
when you pick her up.

No hurry.

I'm sorry about the short notice.

No.

Give you a chance to see
my new place.

Hey, show Von the picture
you drew for Nana this morning.

Wow!

Impressionism.
A blue cow - see, I like that.

That's not a cow. That's Terri,
and that's me holding her hand.

Oh, of course it is. I knew that.

Give me the picture.

Give me a hug.

Okay. I'll see you later.

Won't be long.

Be good.

VON: Yes, I will.

Hi.

I've been waiting for you.

So have you got the results
from your scans?

Yeah.

They're not even pretending
I've got a good chance of survival.

What treatment are you going to have?

I've consented to surgery,
but they say it's high-risk.

If someone had told us
a few years ago

that you and I
would end up like this...

We didn't get off to a good start.
Doesn't matter now.

I was hard on you.

It's a natural instinct
to want to protect your daughter.

Victoria,
you don't have to justify anything.

In the end,
you realise no-one's to blame.

It's just life.

You're the only one
who can give Lucy her memories.

Listen, I don't know
how much longer I've got

before I'm no longer capable
of making decisions,

so I want to say this now.

Victoria, you don't have to say...

Please. I want you to take Lucy.

I want you to promise me
that you will look after her

if anything happens to me.

You give me your word, Terri.
