HUH

HUH

PLEASE ALLOW ME
TO INTRODUCE MYSELF

I'M A MAN OF WEALTH
AND TASTE

I'VE BEEN AROUND FOR A LONG,
LONG YEAR

STOLE MANY A MAN'S
SOUL AND FAITH

58-YEAR-OLD WOMAN KNOCKED DOWN
BY A SKATEBOARDER,

FELL BACKWARDS
ABOUT 10 STEPS.

WAS SHE BREATHING
ON HER OWN?
A FEW AGONAL BREATHS.

PUPILS?
LEFT FIXED,
RIGHT BARELY REACTIVE.

HAS SHE RESPONDED AT ALL?
SOME INCOMPREHENSIBLE SOUNDS,
INITIALLY.

GLASGOW SCORE OF FOUR,
BUT THEN NOTHING.

SO WE DOWNGRADED HER TO A THREE.
GET A STAT C.T. PAGE DR. PARK.

DOCTOR! I'VE REALLY BEEN HERE
A LONG TIME.

WHOSE PATIENT ARE YOU?

THAT'S JUST THE THING --
NOBODY'S.

I-I'VE BEEN IN THE WAITING ROOM
FOR OVER TWO HOURS.

OKAY, I NEED YOU
TO GO BACK TO THE WAITING ROOM.

I PROMISE WE'LL BE WITH YOU
AS FAST AS WE CAN.

SEVERE CHEST PAIN. DIFFICULTY
BREATHING. B.P.'s 98/74.

O2 SAT'S 94.
HEART RATE IS 110.

PAIN WAS 9 OF 10
AND ADMINISTERED ASPIRIN

AND MORPHINE EN ROUTE.

I NEED A 12 LEAD EKG,
STAT.

WHAT WERE YOU DOING
WHEN THE PAIN CAME ON?

THIS DOUCHE BAG SNATCHED
MY BACKPACK, SO I CHASED HIM.

THEN I JUST -- MY CHEST!

OKAY, LET'S GET HIM
INTO BAY 1, QUICK.

PLEASED TO MEET YOU
TIGHTNESS?
ARM PAIN? HEADACHE?

YEAH.
MY ARMS ARE FINE.

I FEEL
A LITTLE LIKE PUKING.

S.T. SEGMENT ELEVATION.
ISCHEMIA IN THE INFERIOR LEADS.

I'M GOING TO GIVE YOU SOMETHING
TO PUT UNDER YOUR TONGUE.

I WANT YOU
TO TELL ME IF IT HELPS.

I NEED ENZYMES ON HIM.

HOW OLD ARE YOU?
16.

FEELING BETTER?

ABOUT A FOUR OR FIVE NOW.

INITIATE CODE STEMI.

ROBIDAUX, I WANT YOU
TO STAY WITH HIM,

TAKE HIM TO THE CATH LAB,
AND PAGE DR. NAPUR.

THIS KID'S
HAVING A HEART ATTACK.

WHOO

[ RADIO CHATTER ]

[ MONITOR BEEPING ]

[ HEART BEATING RAPIDLY ]

[ FLATLINE ]

Tina: GCS 3.
COLLIDED WITH A SKATEBOARDER.

CAT SCAN SHOWS
A LARGE LEFT-SIDED HEMORRHAGE.

LET'S GET HER TO THE O.R., SAVE
WHAT BRAIN FUNCTION WE CAN.

[ RESPIRATOR HISSING ]

SHE GONE.
IT'S ONLY BEEN AN HOUR.

COME ON, SUNG.
SHE'S HERE, AND SO ARE WE.

COME ON.

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

[ MONITOR BEEPING ]

THERE IT IS, AN OBSTRUCTION
IN THE RIGHT CORONARY ARTERY.

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN SOMEBODY
THIS YOUNG WITH A HEART ATTACK?

16? NO.

INFERIOR WALL M.I.

READY TO WATCH
A CARDIAC STENT?

OKAY.

ABSOLUTELY!

SO, MR. KNOX.
WHAT'S GOING ON?

WELL, I HAD BACK SURGERY
A COUPLE YEARS AGO,

AND THINGS
HAVE NEVER BEEN THE SAME.

THE PAIN'S STILL PRETTY BAD.
ON A SCALE OF 1 TO 10?

I'D SAY AN 8 1/2?

I MEAN, IT COMES AND GOES,
BUT IT'S MOSTLY CONTINUOUS.

IS THERE ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR
THAT BRINGS ON THE PAIN?

[ SCOFFS ]
EVERYTHING IN PARTICULAR --

THE BENDING, THE LIFTING,
THE TURNING.

YOU GUYS PRESCRIBED
SOMETHING TO ME ONCE BEFORE.

UM, WHAT WAS IT?
UH, LOR-- LOR-SOMETHING?

LORTAB? I THINK THAT WAS IT.
IT REALLY SEEMED TO HELP.

HOW OFTEN
DO YOU TAKE PAINKILLERS?

ONLY WHEN I NEED 'EM.
WHO IS YOUR PRIMARY?

UH, DR. WU OVER AT
PORTLAND AREA PHYSICIANS.

AND WHAT PHARMACIES
ARE YOU USING?

UH, THE FOUR-AND-TWENTY
AROUND THE CORNER.

NO OTHERS?

WHY DO I SUDDENLY FEEL
LIKE I'M BEING INTERROGATED?

[ CHUCKLES ] LOOK, ARE YOU
ON ANY OTHER MEDICATIONS?

NO.

DO YOU CURRENTLY TAKE
PRESCRIPTIONS FOR BACK PAIN?

IT'S EASY FOR US
TO CHECK THIS OUT.

YEAH, NO, I AM,
UH, BUT I'M SUCH A SPAZ.

I SPILLED IT
IN THE BATHROOM SINK,

AND SO MOST OF IT GOT RUINED.
THAT'S WHY I'M HERE.

I-I NEED AN EMERGENCY REFILL.
OKAY.

JUST RELAX.
I'LL BE BACK IN A MINUTE.

WELL,
WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

I'M GOING TO
MAKE SOME PHONE CALLS.

I'LL RETURN
WITH YOUR TREATMENT OPTIONS.

[ SCOFFS ]

MR. MALLOY?

HOW IS SHE?
IT'S NOT GOOD.

THE TESTS SHOW THERE'S
NO BLOOD FLOW TO HER BRAIN.

WE TRIED
EVERYTHING WE COULD

BUT THE DAMAGE
WAS JUST TOO EXTENSIVE.

SHE'S DEAD?

SHE IS BRAIN-DEAD, YES.

[ SIGHS ]

HOW CAN...

FROM COLLIDING
WITH A SKATEBOARDER?

WE ARE SO SORRY.

BY THE TIME SHE GOT TO US,
SHE WAS ALREADY GONE.

C-CAN I SEE HER?
YOU CAN. OF COURSE.

WE'LL BRING YOU BACK
IN JUST A BIT.

ALSO, YOUR MOTHER
WAS AN ORGAN DONOR.

WE'VE CONTACTED THE REGISTRY,
AND SOMEONE FROM

THE ORGAN PROCUREMENT AGENCY
WILL BE COMING --

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT.

CAN YOU GIVE ME A MINUTE,

JUST TO PROCESS THE FACT
THAT MY MOTHER'S...

BEFORE YOU START --
I-I --

I SO APOLOGIZE
FOR THE INSENSITIVITY OF THIS,

BUT WE'RE REQUIRED.

THE TIMING
ON ORGAN DONATION --

I NEED A MINUTE, OKAY?

PLEASE,
CAN YOU JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE?

Buck:
SHOULD I SPEAK TO HIM?

[ SCOFFS ]
EXCUSE ME?

YOU WORSE ME, BEDSIDE.

SUNG?
IS THAT REALLY NECESSARY?

THE THING IS, FOR US TO MAKE
EFFECTIVE USE OF HER ORGANS --

I EXPLAINED THAT.

LET'S JUST GIVE HIM
A MOMENT ON THIS, OKAY?

HIS MOTHER JUST DIED.

HEY.

HOW YOU FEELING?
OKAY, I GUESS.

ROUGH DAY.

WHAT HAPPENED?

NOTHING NEW.

SOME WANK CALLED ME "MAN BOOBS,"
THEN GRABBED MY BAG.

I STARTED AFTER HIM.

THEN BY THE TIME
WE REACHED THE FIELD,

EVERYTHING JUST HURT.

HAVE YOU EVER HAD PAIN
DURING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY BEFORE?

IT'S JUST UNCOMFORTABLE,
SO I AVOID IT.

TAKE THE ELEVATOR,
RIDE THE BUS.

DARRYL? DARRYL.
BABY, ARE YOU OKAY?

I'M FINE, NANA.

IS THIS YOUR --
GRANDMOTHER.

HI.
I'M DR. SYDNEY NAPUR.

WHAT HAPPENED? IS HE OKAY?
BABY, ARE YOU OKAY?

I HAD A HEART ATTACK.
A WHAT? A WHAT?!

THERE WAS A BLOCKAGE IN HIS
HEART THAT WAS PREVENTING HIM
FROM GETTING ENOUGH OXYGEN.

WE HAD TO PUT IN A STENT
TO REOPEN THE PASSAGEWAY.

OH, MY LORD.

UM, HE WILL BE OKAY,
BUT, UH...

BUT WHAT?

THIS YOUNG MAN NEEDS TO MAKE
SOME DRAMATIC LIFESTYLE CHANGES.

HE HAS ASTHMA,
HE HAS A --

THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO
WITH ASTHMA, MA'AM.

I DON'T THINK I LIKE
YOUR TONE, DOCTOR.

WILL HIS PARENTS
BE COMING IN?

IF HE HAD PARENTS,
THEY'D BE HERE.

I'M HIS PARENT.

[ Weakly ] I'M OKAY.

Gregory:
I'M SORRY, NO.

I-I DON'T WANT HER ORGANS
TO BE HARVESTED.

S-SHE'S
A REGISTERED DONOR.

I UNDERSTAND THAT.

AND IT MAKES SENSE,
SHE'S A SELFLESS PERSON.

BUT I'M TELLING YOU,
AS HER SON,

THAT REGISTRATION DOESN'T
REFLECT HER TRUE INTENT.

ON WHAT BASIS DO YOU --
LOOK.

MY MOTHER AGREED TO BE
AN ORGAN DONOR SIX YEARS AGO,

I UNDERSTAND THAT.

WHAT YOU GUYS
NEED TO APPRECIATE

IS THAT I SPEAK TO HER
EVERY SINGLE DAY,

AND I CAN TELL YOU
THE PERSON SHE IS NOW,

OR...
WAS AN HOUR AGO, AND...

SHE WOULDN'T CONSENT
TO HAVING HER ORGANS HARVESTED.

I'M AFRAID
IT'S A LEGALLY-BINDING CONSENT.

IT'S ON
HER DRIVER'S LICENSE.

YOUR WISHES
CAN'T OVERRIDE HERS.

WHO IS THIS GHOUL?
Tina: GREGORY.

[ SIGHS ]
IT'S A FEDERAL LAW.

IT'S CALLED
THE UNIFORM ANATOMICAL GIFT ACT.

THE AGREEMENT YOUR MOTHER MADE
IS IRREVERSIBLE.

WHICH MEANS THAT WE ARE LEGALLY
REQUIRED TO PROCURE HER ORGANS.

I'M GETTING A LAWYER.

PASTA. BURGERS. BURRITOS.
THAT'S WHAT YOU SERVE?

IT'S WHAT HE SERVES.

I WORK LATE, SO DARRYL
USUALLY TAKES CARE OF DINNER,

WHICH, MORE TIMES THAN NOT,
IS EITHER FAST FOOD OR FROZEN.

MRS. FISHER,
DO YOU REALIZE HOW BAD THAT IS?

PROCESSED FOOD,
FAST FOOD?

IT'S WHAT I CAN AFFORD.

EATING THIS WAY
IS WHAT'S MAKING DARRYL SO SICK.

HIS LIPID PANELS SHOW VERY
HIGH RISK. HE'S SEVERELY OBESE.

EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY IS...
YOU KNOW, FAT.

IT'S IN OUR GENES.

DOES HE GET
ANY EXERCISE?

I'LL TRY TO GET ON HIM
ABOUT THAT.

YOU MAKE IT SOUND
AS IF I FAILED HIM.

WELL SOMEBODY HAS.

HE'S 16 WITH THE BODY
OF A 50-YEAR-OLD.

IT'S JUST SO FRUSTRATING.

PEOPLE THINK "IT'S JUST FOOD.
WHAT'S THE HARM?"

FOOD IS
PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER ONE.

IT'S PRACTICALLY THE LEADING
CAUSE OF DEATH IN THIS NATION.

FOOD.

YOU KNOW, I THINK
I SAW THAT KID ONCE. FISHER?

HE CAME IN
WITH A STREP THROAT.

HIS CHOLESTEROL
AND TRIGLYCERIDES
WERE THROUGH THE ROOF.

OH, AT 16.
GOD, THE NATION
NEARLY SAT SHIBAH

FOR THE DEATH
OF THE TWINKIE.

DO YOU KNOW
WHAT'S ACTUALLY IN TWINKIES?

AMONG OTHER THINGS,
THE INGREDIENTS FOUND
IN ROCKET FUEL.

SYD. WE'RE DOCTORS.

WE CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH.

WE CAN'T BE TILTING
AT WINDMILLS...

OR DING DONGS...
OR SNO BALLS.

IT'S REALLY NOT FUNNY.

WHAT WAS DARRYL'S
FRACTIONATION, ANYWAY?

WAS IT SOMETHING
RIDICULOUS?

I DON'T KNOW.
I DIDN'T RUN IT.

YOU DIDN'T RUN IT?

YOU JUST GOT THE TOTAL?
YOU DIDN'T BREAK IT DOWN?

AND NOW I'M IN TROUBLE.
NOT EVEN A LIPID PANEL?

I SAW HIM FOR STREP THROAT,
SO...

AND YOU COULD SEE
THE KID WAS FAT,

WITH ELEVATED CHOLESTEROL.
CAN I PLEASE JUST EAT?

NO, OF COURSE NOT.
I FORGOT. FOOD IS THE ENEMY.

WELL, FOOD AND ME.

[ SIGHS ]

YOU KNOW WHAT?
I THINK I'LL, UH...

I'LL JUST GO
SMOKE A CIGARETTE.

COME ON.

I'M NOT A DRUG ADDICT.
I HURT MY BACK.

SON,
YOU'RE A DRUG ADDICT.

ARE YOU THE POSTER BOY?
IS IT NEEDLES OR COCAINE?

NO. IT'S PAIN MEDICATION.

BUT YOU'RE A DRUG ADDICT
JUST THE SAME.

YOU'VE BEEN GOING
TO DIFFERENT E.R.'s,

MULTIPLE PHARMACIES,

GETTING PRESCRIPTIONS
FOR OPIATES, NARCOTICS --

ARE YOU TELLING ME
THAT MY PAIN ISN'T REAL?

I AM TELLING YOU
YOU HAVE A PROBLEM,

ONE WHICH
I WILL NOT ENABLE.

THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
WHERE'S THAT BLONDE DOCTOR?

SON.
DON'T CALL ME "SON."

OKAY? I AM IN SERIOUS PAIN HERE,
AND YOU'RE A DOCTOR.

YOU NEED TO TREAT ME,
YOU FAT BASTARD!

I'LL TREAT YOU
FOR A BROKEN JAW.

WOULD YOU
LIKE TO HAVE ONE?

PLEASE. I REALLY HURT.

I BELIEVE YOU.

BUT MORE THAN ANYTHING,
YOU NEED TO DETOX.

COURT? THAT KID IS
HAULING US INTO COURT?
HOW CAN HE DO THAT?

BY HIRING AN ATTORNEY, BUCK,
AND BELIEVE ME.

LAWYERS MAKE VERY GOOD HAULERS,
BUT RIGHT NOW --

FIRST OF ALL, THE WOMAN'S
CONSENT IS LEGALLY BINDING.

NOW BEING CHALLENGED
BY THE SON.

SECOND, IF WE DO NOT HARVEST
THESE ORGANS QUICKLY,

THE VIABILITY --

WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE TO
GO TO THE COURTHOUSE NOW.

SO, SHE'S STILL HOOKED UP
TO A MACHINE?

WELL, HARDING'S GOING
TO FIGHT THE COURT ORDER,

WHILE PROSPECTIVE DONEES
ARE BEING PUT ON STANDBY.

IT'S ABSURD.
THE WOMAN SIGNED A DONOR CARD.

OHH.

HEY, I'M -- I'M SORRY.
HELLO.

I'M ASHER KNOX. WE, UH,
MET BRIEFLY IN THE E.R.

YES.

HI, I'M SORRY TO BOTHER YOU,
BUT, UM...

THAT OTHER E.R. DOCTOR,

THE BIG GUY,
THE AFRICAN-AMERICAN MAN, HE...

HE SORT OF THREW ME OUT.

DR. VILLANUEVA WOULDN'T HAVE
TURNED YOU AWAY

IF HE FELT YOU NEEDED
TREATMENT, MR. KNOX.

WELL, HE --
HE THINKS I NEED DRUG TREATMENT.

AND, UH, I-I DO.

I-I'M ADDICTED
TO PAIN MEDICATION.

AND I REALIZE I NEED TO
GET TREATMENT FOR THAT,

BUT -- BUT RIGHT NOW,
I -- I JUST NEED HELP, PERIOD.

THAT DR. VILLA GUY OR WHATEVER
MADE SOME CALLS.

AND, UH, I CAN'T GO TO
ANY MORE E.R.'s OR PHARMACIES.

H-H-HE CAN'T DO THAT.
HE -- HE CAN'T DO THAT.

I MEAN,
I -- I COULD SUE YOU GUYS.

LOOK, WE CANNOT
GIVE YOU DRUGS, SO...

BUT I-I-IT'S JUST -- IT'S JUST
TO EASE THE PAIN, PLEASE.

IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE.
IT I THAT SIMPLE.

YOU THINK
I WANT TO BE THIS WAY?

DOCTORS DID THIS TO ME.

JUST --
JUST WRITE ME A SCRIPT.

TIDE ME OVER
FOR A LITTLE BIT.

I CAN'T DO THAT.
YES, YOU CAN!

AAH!
HEY! [ GROANS ]

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

[ Distorted ] TINA?

[ Echoing ] TINA?

[ CELLPHONE DIALING ]

PROBABLE HEMATOMA,
SUBDURAL OR EPIDURAL.

PAGE DR. WILSON.

NO, CHECK THAT.
DR. PARK. CALL SUNG.

SOME BLOOD IN HER MOUTH.
I THINK IT LOCALIZED.
YOU OKAY?

I'M FINE. BREATH SOUNDS
ARE CLEAR THROUGHOUT.

WHAT HAPPENED?

SHE WAS ATTACKED,
HEAD INJURY.

TINA?
SHE'S NOT CONSCIOUS.

PUPILS? IS SHE LOCALIZING?
ANY KIND OF RESPONSE AT ALL?

WE NEED A C.T.
OH, MY GOD.

MY GOD.
WHERE IS SHE NOW?

HARDING.
THEY JUST CALLED OUR CASE.

WELL, SHOULD SHE NEED SURGERY,
I WANT DR. PARK TO PERFORM.

YOU UNDERSTAND? NOT TY WILSON.
JUST KEEP US INFORMED.

WE SHOULD BE BACK
WITHIN THE HOUR.

IS EVERYTHING OKAY?
NO.

[ WHIRRING ]

BRAIN SWELL.
SUBDURAL HEMATOMA.

PREP SURGERY NOW.
LET'S GO.

TINA? TINA?
NEED TAKE SURGERY NOW.

BRAIN BLEEDING.

I'M DOING IT.
I DO.

I SAID I'M DOING IT!
STAND DOWN!

DR. WILSON.

DR. PARK
WILL PERFORM THE PROCEDURE.

[ RESPIRATOR HISSING ]

WHAT AM I MISSING HERE?
SHE'S A REGISTERED ORGAN DONOR.

YES, YOUR HONOR,
WHICH WOULD SUGGEST

THAT SHE AGREED
TO HAVE HER ORGANS HARVESTED.

BUT IN ASCERTAINING THE VALIDITY
AND THEREFORE ENFORCEABILITY

OF ANY SUCH AGREEMENT,

WE LOOK TO SEE IF THERE WAS
AN ACTUAL MEETING OF THE MINDS.

HERE,
I SUBMIT THERE WAS NONE.
BECAUSE?

WELL, THERE'S NO INDICATION
THAT SHE TRULY KNEW

WHAT ORGAN DONATION
EVEN ENTAILS.

IN FACT,
MOST PEOPLE DO NOT.

WHY? BECAUSE
THEY'RE SIMPLY NOT TOLD.

ONE ALMOST GETS THE SENSE
THAT THE LESS PEOPLE KNOW,

PERHAPS THE MORE LIKELY
THEY ARE TO DONATE.

YOUR HONOR, IF I MIGHT
HAVE A WORD. FORGIVE ME.

I DON'T MEAN TO FORSAKE
ANY PROPER COURT DECORUM,

BUT THERE ARE LIVES,
INNOCENT LIVES,

HANGING IN THE BALANCE,
AND I WOULD HATE FOR THOSE LIVES

TO BE HINGED ON MR. TOMPKINS'S
TALENT FOR BREVITY.

AND WHO ARE YOU?
FORGIVE ME.
MY NAME IS HARDING HOOTEN.

I'M THE CHIEF OF STAFF
AT CHELSEA GENERAL.

EXCELLENT!
WHAT A SPLENDID IDEA.

LET'S HEAR DIRECTLY

FROM CHELSEA GENERAL'S
CHIEF OF STAFF.

WE CAN ALL LEARN FIRSTHAND ABOUT
THE ORGAN-DONATION BUSINESS.

AND IN THE PROCESS,
WE COULD EVEN SAVE TIME.

YOUR HONOR, MIGHT WE
PUT DR. HOOTEN UNDER OATH,

IN THE INTEREST
OF ACCURACY?

I GUESS MY QUESTION WOULD BE --
OR I SHOULD SAY MY ASSUMPTION...

WHEN A PERSON --
SAY, LIKE MY CLIENT'S MOTHER --

CHECKS
THE "ORGAN DONOR" BOX

ON HER DRIVER'S LICENSE
APPLICATION,

IS IT MADE CLEAR TO HER

THAT NOT ONLY HER ORGANS
MAY BE HARVESTED,

BUT ALSO HER SKIN
AND HER TISSUE?

Harding:
I REALLY HAVE NO IDEA

WHAT YOUR CLIENT'S MOTHER
WAS SPECIFICALLY TOLD.

HERE'S THE PAPERWORK
MRS. MALLOY SIGNED.

OH, WELL, IT'S ACTUALLY

AN APPLICATION
FOR A DRIVER'S LICENSE

WITH A LITTLE BOX
TO CHECK.

IS THERE ANYTHING IN HERE

DECLARING THAT HER TISSUE
AND SKIN WOULD BE HARVESTED?

I BELIEVE ONLINE THERE IS
A SECTION FOR EXCLUSIONS

SHOULD YOU --

AH, YOU'D HAVE TO GO ONLINE
TO READ IT.

THE REALITY IS
MOST PEOPLE DO NOT.

IN FACT,
THERE IS NO WAY TO SPECIFY,

"DO NOT SELL MY TISSUE
FOR COSMETIC USE."

MOST PEOPLE, MY CLIENT'S MOTHER
BEING ONE OF THEM,

SIMPLY HAVE NO IDEA

THAT HOSPITALS DERIVE HUGE
REVENUES FROM THESE TISSUES,

TISSUES SOMETIMES USED FOR
THINGS LIKE PENILE ENLARGEMENTS,

LIP-PLUMPING, WRINKLE REPAIR,
NOSE CARTILAGE.

YOU THINK MY CLIENT'S MOTHER
KNOWINGLY AGREED

TO LET HER BODY PARTS
BE USED POSTHUMOUSLY

TO AUGMENT
A MALE RECREATIONAL APPENDAGE?

THE MAJORITY OF ORGANS ARE USED
FOR LIFE-SAVING MEASURES.

WE DON'T --
IS IT YOUR TESTIMONY,
DOCTOR,

THAT CHELSEA GENERAL
DOES NOT USE

OR SELL ORGAN DONATIONS
FOR PROFIT?

YES, MONEY IS MADE ALLOWING
OUTSIDE COMPANIES TO HARVEST --

TISSUE FOR COSMETIC USE?

MR. TOMPKINS, WHAT WE ARE
ENDEAVORING TO DO HERE TODAY

IS TO USE YOUR CLIENT'S MOTHER'S
LIVER AND KIDNEYS

TO SAVE THREE LIVES.

SHOULD YOU NOT BE ABLE TO
READ THAT IN THE FORM --

PERHAPS NOT, BECAUSE
NOWHERE IN THE FINE PRINT

IS IT PROMINENTLY DECLARED
THAT YOU ARE A PUTZ.

IT'S MY CLIENT WHO FEELS LIKE
A PUTZ TODAY, SIR,

SITTING HERE
AS YOU'RE ABOUT TO

CARVE UP HIS MOTHER
FOR PROFIT.

WELL, THEN, PERHAPS
YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR CLIENT

THAT WE ARE USING HIS MOTHER'S
BODY PARTS TO SAVE HUMAN LIFE.

FOR SOMEONE WHO LAYS CLAIM
TO FULL DISCLOSURE,

WHY ARE YOU
THROWING UP TREES

TO OBSCURE
HIS VIEW OF THE FOREST?

THE FOREST HERE

IS THE NOT-SO-UNDERGROUND
TRANSPLANT INDUSTRY

THAT REAPS MILLIONS,
IF NOT BILLIONS OF DOLLARS.

OH, NOW YOU ARE
OVERSTATING THE CASE.
IT'S A RACKET.

A RACKET?!

IF MRS. MALLOY'S SKIN GRAFT
GOES FROM HERE TO HOBOKEN

TO COVER A NOSE
BURNED OFF A 5-YEAR-OLD

TO PREVENT HIS A LIFE BEING
ONE OF SCORN AND DISFIGUREMENT,

THAT, SIR,
IS NOT A RACKET!

WHAT DO YOU THINK
YOU'RE DOING?

I'M GOING IN THERE.
THAT'S WHAT I'M DOING.
SHE'S MY BEST FRIEND.

AND SHOULD SHE BECOME UNSTABLE,
I WANT TO BE THERE.

YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?
NOPE.

TRAUMA CRANIOTOMY.

EVACUATE
SUBDURAL HEMATOMA FIRST,

DEAL WITH
OTHER INJURIES LATER.

HER B.P.'s UP
AND HER HEART RATE'S DOWN.

SHOULD WE GIVE HER MEDS,
BRING THAT PRESSURE DOWN, TOO?

NO. KILL HER. BRING DOWN, DEAD.
WHAT COAGS?

NORMAL.
C.T. ON MONITOR?

ALREADY UP.

[ MONITOR BEEPING ]

Sidney: GEE, SUNG,
TAKE YOUR TIME. NO BIG RUSH.

YOU WANT BE HERE?
BE QUIET.

DOCTOR.

[ Voice breaking ]
FIVE SECONDS.

YOU WAKE UP.

YOU BE STRONG,
AND YOU WAKE UP.

I LOVE YOU, TINA.
I LOVE YOU.

YOU WAKE UP.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

SCALPEL.
SCALPEL.

FORCEPS.

[ Echoing ] DRILL.

[ DRILL WHIRRING ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ RESPIRATOR HISSING ]

[ MONITOR BEEPING ]

4-0 PROLENE.

[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACH ]

NO. ONE VOICE.

SIT.

JUST TELL ME.

SIT.

[ SNIFFS ]

DRAIN BLOOD.

EVACUATE HEMATOMA,
BUT...

A LOT OF BLEEDING.
TRAUMA.

WE KEEP SEDATED, WAKE UP SLOW,
HELP WITH SWELLING.

YOU LEAVE THE BONE OFF?

YES.

SHE STRONG.
WE DO EVERYTHING.

NOW WE WAIT...

PRAY.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

[ ELEVATOR BELL DINGS ]

WELL, WE SHOULDN'T BE HERE
MUCH LONGER.

[ CELLPHONE BEEPS ]

SHE'S JUST
COMING OUT OF SURGERY.

LOOK.
THIS IS A LITTLE UNORTHODOX.

I'M HAPPY
TO GIVE THE SUMMATION,

BUT I THINK WE COULD BE
IN THE TOILET ON THIS ONE.
WHAT?!

THIS IS PRETTY MUCH
A STRAIGHT CONTRACT CASE,

AND THERE IS A REAL QUESTION
AS TO MEETING OF THE MINDS.

ADD TO THAT, THE BENEFIT
OF THE DOUBT WON'T GO TO YOU.

ANY AMBIGUITY IS
CONSTRUED AGAINST THE DRAFTER,

WHICH IN THIS CASE,
IS THE HOSPITAL.

I THINK OUR CASE IS STRONGER
IF YOU MAKE IT.

ME? WELL, IT SEEMS I'M THE ONE
WHO DELIVERED US TO THE COMMODE.

I CAN DO IT.
THAT I CANNOT RECOMMEND.

I'M SORRY, DOCTOR,

BUT YOUR PROPENSITY TO ALIENATE
CANNOT BE OVERSTATED.

THIS IS MY PASSION.

IF THERE'S ANYTHING THAT...
THAT MAKES ME A GOOD PERSON,

IT'S MY COMMITMENT
TO THIS PROGRAM.

THE QUESTION BECOMES,
CAN YOU COMMUNICATE THAT PASSION

WITHOUT MAKING THE JUDGE
HATE YOU?

MAYBE NOT.
BUT IF HE'S A GOOD JUDGE,

HE'LL RULE ON THE ISSUE,
NOT ON MY PERSONALITY.

I KNOW THIS ISSUE.
YEAH, VERY GOOD.

OKAY, BUCK.
THE BALL IS IN YOUR HANDS.

[ SIGHS ]

IS THERE ANYTHING...
THAT I COULD DO?

NO.

I'M SORRY.

I KNOW THIS IS
HARDLY THE TIME, BUT...

IN MOMENTS LIKE THESE,

TRUTHS REVEAL THEMSELVES,
YOU KNOW?

WHEN YOU ASK IF
THERE'S ANYTHING YOU CAN DO...

...THERE REALLY ISN'T.

THERE SHOULD BE, YOU KNOW?

MY BEST FRIEND
IS LYING COMATOSE.

SITTING HERE RIGHT NOW,
I'D...

I'D RATHER BE ALONE.

HEY! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
DID YOU GIVE HIM THIS?!

HE WAS THIRSTY.
HE DOESN'T FEEL WELL.

HE DOESN'T FEEL WELL
BECAUSE OF ALL THE SUGARY DRINKS

AND FATTY FOODS
THAT HE'S BEEN ALLOWED TO --

THIS IS HIS PROBLEM!

AND SO ARE YOU!

HEY, LADY,
LAY OFF MY GRANDMA.

LAY OFF? Y-YOU NEED TO LAY OFF
CRAP LIKE THIS!

THIS WILL GIVE YOU
ANOTHER HEART ATTACK!

AND IF I CAN'T GET THAT
THROUGH YOUR HEAD,

I WILL TAKE IT UP
WITH CHILD SERVICES.

IN FACT, THAT'S THE BEST IDEA
I'VE HAD ALL DAY.

THE ETHICAL THING WOULD HAVE
BEEN FOR MY CLIENT'S MOTHER

TO BE TOLD THAT HER BODY PARTS,
UPON HER DEATH,

WOULD BE USED TO
DERIVE REVENUE FOR THE HOSPITAL,

WHETHER OR NOT
THEY SAVED LIVES.

THE HONEST THING WOULD BE
TO TELL PEOPLE

THAT EVEN WHILE THERE'S A BAN
ON ORGAN SALES IN THIS COUNTRY,

THERE'S NOTHING
TO STOP THE HOSPITALS

FROM SELLING TISSUES
AND PARTS TO OTHER COUNTRIES,

WHICH THEY ROUTINELY DO.

YOUR HONOR,
THIS PRACTICE IS NOT

NEARLY AS TRANSPARENT
AS IT NEEDS TO BE,

WHICH CAN ONLY CAUSE PEOPLE
TO DISTRUST THE PROGRAM

AND RESULT IN FEWER
ORGAN DONATIONS BEING MADE.

AND THAT WILL COST LIVES.

HUMAN LIFE.

THAT'S RIGHT UP THERE
WITH PROFIT, ISN'T IT?

[ CHAIR SCRAPES ]

I'M DR. BUCK TIERNEY,

CHIEF OF TRANSPLANTATION
AT CHELSEA GENERAL.

YOUR HONOR,
WE CHARGE FOR A LOT OF THINGS.

BAD FOOD IN THE CAFETERIA,
THE PARKING.

AND WE DEFINITELY MAKE MONEY
ON COSMETIC SURGERY,

SOME OF WHICH
MAKES USE OF TISSUE AND SKIN

HARVESTED AT
THE TIME OF ORGAN DONATION.

BUT AT OUR CORE,
WE ARE NONPROFIT.

AND AT OUR CORE, WE ARE ABOUT
HEALING AND SAVING LIVES.

BUT YOU DO ALSO PROFIT
FROM SOME OF THESE DONATIONS?

WE RECOVER EXPENSES.

WHY NOT
JUST BE TRANSPARENT?

WOULDN'T THAT MAKE
MUCH MORE SENSE?

WELL, IT MIGHT.

IT MIGHT, YOUR HONOR,
BUT THIS WHOLE --

THIS WHOLE ENDEAVOR IS DEPENDENT
ON THE HUMAN SPIRIT,

ON THE PROCLIVITY OF PEOPLE WHO
WANT TO HELP THEIR FELLOW MAN.

THERE IS A FEAR THAT
WERE WE TO PUBLICIZE THE REALITY

THAT WE DO ON OCCASION
SELL HARVESTED TISSUE,

PEOPLE MIGHT BE LESS INCLINED
TO WANT TO DONATE.

BUT ISN'T THAT
EXACTLY MR. TOMPKINS' POINT?

WHATEVER POINT
MR. TOMPKINS MADE

IS BURIED IN HIS DEMONIZING
OF OUR PROGRAM, SIR,

AND I REJECT THAT.

WE ARE NOT
IN THE TRANSPLANT BUSINESS

BECAUSE IT IS BIG MONEY --
WE JUST ARE NOT.

TO SUGGEST THAT IT IS

IS AS CYNICAL AS IT IS VILE,
YOUR HONOR.

NOW, I COULD
PARADE BEFORE YOU HUNDREDS --

WELL, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE --

WHO ARE ALIVE TODAY BECAUSE
OF THE GIFT OF A TRANSPLANT.

RIGHT NOW, WORLDWIDE, THE NUMBER
APPROACHES ONE MILLION.

IT'S ONE MILLION PEOPLE,
YOUR HONOR.

AND RIGHT NOW,

THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS
OF PEOPLE WAITING.

THEY'RE DESPERATE FOR AN ORGAN
THAT MAY PREVENT THEIR DEATH.

THEIR ONLY HOPE IS THIS PROGRAM.

AND TO THINK THAT THIS HOPE
OF THEIRS MIGHT GET SQUASHED.

WHY? PEOPLE LIKE MR. TOMPKINS
WHO VILIFY THE --

RIGHT NOW, YOUNG MAN,

THERE'S A FATHER OF TWO
IN OUR HOSPITAL.

HIS LIVER HAS FAILED,
AND HE IS DYING.

HE IS DYING.

YOUR MOTHER'S LIVER
IS A PERFECT MATCH.

THERE'S ALSO A 7-YEAR-OLD BOY
AND A 5-YEAR-OLD GIRL,

AND THEY ARE DESPERATELY PRAYING

THAT THEIR FATHER RECEIVES
YOUR MOTHER'S ORGAN.

I...
NEVER MET YOUR MOM, SON.

PERHAPS SHE'D WANT TO
ANSWER THESE PRAYERS.

PERHAPS NOT.

ANYTHING?
Ty: NO.

SHE JUST CAME OFF
THE THIOPENTAL, SO...

WE'RE JUST WAITING
FOR HER TO WAKE UP.

Gato:
ANY SIGNS OF THAT?

NO.

WELL, AT LEAST THEY CAUGHT
THE PUNK WHO DID THIS,

IF THAT MATTERS.

TINA?

DO YOU KNOW WHO THIS IS
TALKING TO YOU NOW?

THIS IS THE BIG CAT
STANDING HERE.

I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP,
OKAY?

MY E.R. IS UNDERMANNED.
I GOT PATIENTS.

SO, I NEED YOU TO WAKE UP

AND GET YOUR ASS
DOWN TO THE E.R. ASAP.

YOU FEEL ME?

DO YOU FEEL ME?

LET ME KNOW.

OKAY, IT SEEMS TO ME,
THE BEST SOLUTION HERE

WOULD BE
TO LET THE DECEDENT'S ORGANS

BE USED
FOR LIFE-SAVING PURPOSES,

BUT TO EXCLUDE
HER SKIN AND TISSUE

FROM BEING UTILIZED
FOR COSMETIC REASONS.

MR. MALLOY,
DOES THAT SEEM FAIR?

UH, NO.

NO? MAY I ASK WHY?

I-I THINK MY MOTHER WOULD BE
VERY ANGRY AT THESE PEOPLE.

SHE WOULD BE VERY ANGRY.

WHY?

SHE GOT KNOCKED DOWN
BY A SKATEBOARDER.

THEN SHE GOES
TO CHELSEA GENERAL,

A HOSPITAL
THAT'S SUPPOSED TO S--

AND THEY DIDN'T SAVE HER.

THEY DID NOTHING.

THINGS ARE NOT FAIR.

THEY DID NOTHING.

SHE WAS MY BEST FRIEND.

WE SPOKE EVERY SINGLE DAY.

YOU JUST WANT TO USE HER
TO SAVE OTHER PEOPLE?

WHERE WAS ANYONE TO SAVE HER?

YOU'VE EVERY RIGHT TO BE ANGRY,
MR. MALLOY.

AND YOUR MOTHER CERTAINLY
WOULD BE ENTITLED TO SUCH ANGER.

BUT WOULD SHE WISH THIS
TO BE HER FINAL LEGACY?

HOW MANY HOURS
SINCE THE SURGERY?

ANYBODY KEEPING COUNT?

FIVE HOURS.

SHE'S TAKEN CARE OF
EVERY ONE OF US.

PULLED US ALL
THROUGH VARIOUS CRISES.

[ PAGERS BEEPING ]

Sydney:
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? NOW?

IT'S 10:00 AT NIGHT.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ FOOTSTEPS APPROACH ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

HARDING, COME ON. NOW?

PLEASE TAKE YOUR SEAT,
DR. VILLANUEVA.

DR. TIERNEY.
HOW DID IT GO?

FINE. WE TOOK
ONLY LIVER AND KIDNEYS.

THE SON SEEMS...OKAY.

RIGHT.

LET'S GET STARTED, SHALL WE?
DR. NAPUR.

JOIN US, PLEASE.

TELL US ABOUT DARRYL FISHER,
WOULD YOU?

[ CLEARS THROAT ]

DARRYL FISHER, 16, HEART ATTACK
ON HIS HIGH-SCHOOL CAMPUS.

INJURY TO THE INTERIOR WALL,

OBSTRUCTION
IN THE RIGHT CORONARY ARTERY.

CARDIAC OUTPUT MILDLY REDUCED.

I PUT IN A STENT, PATIENT
IS RECOVERING WELL IN HIS ROOM.

WELL DONE, DR. NAPUR.
DID YOU DO ANYTHING ELSE?

PERHAPS FILE A NEGLECT CLAIM
AGAINST THE PATIENT'S CARETAKER?

I REPORTED THE GRANDMOTHER
TO CHILD SERVICES. YEAH, I DID.

SHE WAS
FEEDING THE KID CRAP.

SHE BROUGHT HIM
A GIANT FROZEN DRINK

RIGHT HERE IN THIS HOSPITAL.

YOU REPORTED
THE PATIENT'S GRANDMOTHER,

HIS PRIMARY
AND ONLY CARETAKER,

TO THE AUTHORITIES
AND ACCUSED HER OF CHILD ABUSE.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

AS A CARDIOTHORACIC SURGEON,

I HAPPEN TO BE
ON THE FRONT LINES.

THE ESTIMATED COST
OF OBESITY-RELATED ILLNESS

IS OVER $190 BILLION.

HEART DISEASE, STROKE,
DIABETES, CANCER --

ALL THE LEADING CAUSES
OF PREVENTABLE DEATHS.
AND WHERE ARE WE ON THIS?

THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY
JUST SITS BACK SILENTLY.

IT'S TANTAMOUNT TO MALPRACTICE.

WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE DOCTORS,
FOR GOD'S SAKE.

WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE?!
I'M SICK OF IT!

AND IF I HAVE TO START
RATTING OUT GRANDMOTHERS

TO SEND A WAKE-UP CALL,
I WILL DO IT.

SO, YOU'RE NOT JUST
A DOCTOR NOW.

YOU'RE A DE FACTO STATE AGENT,
FULLY VESTED WITH POLICE POWERS.

I'M A DOCTOR WHO IS WILLING TO
TAKE WHATEVER STEPS NECESSARY --

AND SUPPOSE CHILD SERVICES
DECIDES TO INTERVENE?

WHY THE HELL
ARE WE HERE RIGHT NOW?!

IT IS 10:00 AT NIGHT.

WHY ARE YOU
CALLING THIS MEETING NOW?!

YOU HAVE SOMEWHERE TO GO,
DR. NAPUR?

YOU HAVE A DATE?

HARDING,
SOMEBODY I LOVE VERY DEARLY

IS LYING IN A HOSPITAL BED.

A LOT OF PEOPLE
IN THIS ROOM...

THAT YOU WOULD SEE FIT TO CALL
THIS MEETING AT THIS TIME IS --

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO SUSPEND
OPERATIONS IN THIS HOSPITAL NOW?

WHY CAN'T IT WAIT
UNTIL TOMORROW?!

BECAUSE MAYBE NOW
IS THE BEST TIME.
WHY?

IF FOR NO OTHER REASON,
TO KEEP OURSELVES OCCUPIED.

TO KEEP OURSELVES
OCCUPIED?!

YES!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!

THAT'S WHAT PEOPLE DO.

OCCUPY OURSELVES.
IT'S WHAT PEOPLE DO, DR. NAPUR.

WHEN LOVED ONES LAY...
POTENTIALLY DYING.

AND THERE'S NOTHING
WE CAN DO, WE...

WE OCCUPY OURSELVES.

[ SIGHS ]

[ SNIFFLES ]

YOUR NOTIFYING
CHILD SERVICES,

ALLEGING CHILD ENDANGERMENT
AGAINST A GRANDMOTHER

WHO'S TRYING HER BEST
TO RAI--

YOU GROSSLY OVERSTEPPED
YOUR AUTHORITY, DR. NAPUR.

AND IN MY OPINION,
YOUR HUMAN DIGNITY.

AS CAUSES GO, CHILD OBESITY
IS A VERY SERIOUS ONE,

BUT THE MANNER IN WHICH --

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ CHAIRS CREAKING ]

APPROXIMATELY,
UH, SIX MINUTES AGO...

DR. TINA RIDGEWAY...WOKE UP.

SHE, UM...
SHE HELD MY HAND.

SHE SQUEEZED MY HAND
WHEN I ASKED HER TO.

SHE -- SHE SAID "HELLO."

LANGUAGE SKILLS INTACT.

[ APPLAUSE ]

[ SIGHS ]

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

HEY.

[ Weakly ] HEY.

YOU LOOK HORRIBLE.

SO DO YOU.
WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE?

[ Voice breaking ] DON'T YOU
EVER DO THIS TO ME AGAIN.

I'LL TRY NOT TO.

Gladys: OH, NO, YOU DON'T.
THIS IS AN I.C.U.

THERE'S NO MORE THAN TWO PEOPLE
IN HERE AT A TIME.

GLADYS, IT'S OKAY.
NOT WITH ME, IT ISN'T.

I DON'T CARE
THAT YOU'RE DOCTORS --
GLADYS. PICK YOUR BATTLES.

[ INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS ]

UH, HOW'S SHE DOING?

EVERYBODY QUIET.
NEED EXAMINE.

[ FLASHLIGHT CLICKS ]

HEY, SUNG.
I GUESS I OWE YOU.

QUIET. NO TALK.

UH, DON'T WANT TO CHECK
MY LANGUAGE SKILLS?

IT WAS
THE LEFT SIDE OF MY BRAIN.

QUIET.

WHO ME? WHO YOU?

AT THE MOMENT, I'M FEELING
A LITTLE LIKE DOROTHY.

GOT KNOCKED OUT,
HIT ON THE HEAD,

ONLY TO WAKE UP
SURROUNDED BY EVERYONE I LOVE.

HEY.

HEY.

Sung:
SHE FINE. NEED REST.

YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD.

I'M KIND OF TIRED.

WELL,
LET'S LET HER REST.

NO. I LIKE IT
THAT YOU'RE ALL HERE.

JUST LET ME JUST CLOSE MY EYES
FOR A SEC.

DON'T GO.

AND IT SMILES ON THE LAKE

AND CAUSES THE RIPPLES
IN TIME

SHE'S REALLY...?

I'M LUCK TO BE HERE
WITH SOMEONE I LIKE
YES. RECOVER. FINE.

WHO MAKETH MY SPIRIT
TO SHINE

AMEN. EH, BROTHER?

DON'T LET US GET SICK
INDEED.

DON'T LET US GET OLD

DON'T LET US GET STUPID,
ALL RIGHT?

JUST MAKE US BE BRAVE

MAKE US PLAY NICE

LET US BE TOGETHER TONIGHT
