All language subtitles for Malpractice.S01E03

This is 23-year-old Edith Owusu.

One of Rob's patients
accidentally overdosed.

He called me and asked me to
code that overdose is deliberate.

Why is this going to an inquest?

Just stick to the facts

regarding the treatment you
gave Edith, you'll be fine.

Don't do this, please,
I'm begging you. Stop it!

I'll tell them you're an
addict! I am not an addict!

CAR BRAKES SCREECH

What happened?

Local GP, Dr Rob Thornbury, got
hit by a car in Park Square.

So, the assumption is
whoever owns that number

alerted Lucinda to
Edith's overdose.

I'd like to invite the founder,

Dr Jubair Singh, to
present the award.

The winners of the Outstanding
Covid Response Award are...

West Yorkshire Royal
Hospital's A&E team.

How about I give you something
that's going to help you calm down?

Fetch me four 10mg
diazepam tablets.

40mg? You'll knock her out.

I need to get my
phone fixed, please.

Rob, they need to know
if you dealt with her.

If this goes any
further then, trust me,

you'll be the one
going down with her.

SHE MUTTERS

SHE SIGHS

Shit!

SHE BREATHES DEEPLY

HE KNOCKS

So, Lucinda's phone records
finally arrived yesterday.

Right.

I cross-referenced it with the
dates she treated opioid overdoses

and, look, the same number that
called Lucinda the day Edith died

called her twice on January 7th,

before Alexander Taylor arrived
in A&E with a deliberate overdose,

and again, twice, February 23rd,

when Camilla Woodham presented
in exactly the same way.

And I checked with
the 999 call centre,

both overdoses were
called in by that number,

just like Edith.

Well, that IS interesting.

Isn't it?

Did they call before Milo
Hanbury came in? Uh, no.

But, I mean, even if we
discount Milo for now.

It looks like she's working
with someone but... who?

Let's get the notes

for Alexander Taylor
and Camilla Woodham,

see if there's anything
linking them to each other,

to Lucinda, to Edith.

Already on it. I'm picking
them up later this morning.

Steady on, George -
you'll have my job next.

Well done.

Right, I better get
to this inquest.

Oh, yes.

Right, the facts are, Lucinda,

you had to deal with
a gunshot victim,

so you left Edith Owusu
in Ramya's capable hands

with a clear management plan,
which you, Ramya, followed.

We did everything we could,
but this is the tragic result

of a girl trying to
take her own life.

Just to warn you,
Edith's dad, Sir Anthony,

used to be a barrister,

so he's going to be acting

as the family's
legal representation.

I know, I know,
it feels daunting,

but, remember, none of
you are on trial, OK?

This is just a
fact-finding exercise

to help the coroner determine
the exact cause of death,

so what you've got to do is
stick to the hospital line -

you each did your
best to treat Edith,

but these things happen.

Right? Nobody is culpable.

And what's the worst
that could happen?

Well, if the coroner concludes
it's medical negligence

that's caused Edith's death

then that could open us up
to lawsuits from the family,

the police could get involved,

so let's not give
them the opportunity.

However, if he rules
it's a suicide,

then the hospital will look
less responsible. So...

Good luck. Let's get going.

Thank you.

I can see that this
is difficult for you,

but when did you last see Edith?

The day she died.

What was your impression of Edith's
mental state during those times?

We had no reason to believe
she was using drugs.

Was there a hint of
suicidal thinking?

No.

None.

Thank you. If you'd
wait there, please.

Mrs Roberts, do you
have any questions?

Verity Roberts, legal counsel,
West Yorkshire Royal Hospital.

When Edith left your home,

did she mention any
anxiety about the new job,

any problems with
friends or a partner?

Edith didn't have a partner.

She was excited
about the new job,

but I don't believe she
was trying to kill herself.

I'd like to play part of
the 999 call that was made

the night that Edith died,

and if you find that too distressing
I can read out a transcript instead.

No, it's fine.

Please, go ahead.

Can we play the
recording, please.

BEEP ON RECORDING: I need a...

I need an ambulance
to 9 Somerville Road.

My friend, Edith, I think
she's tried to kill herself.

OK, who am I speaking to?

And what has Edith done?

I don't know. She's... She's...

I think she's dying,
she's not responding.

Please, you need to send someone
right away. 9 Somerville Road.

PHONE BEEPS REPEATEDLY

Do you know this
friend of Edith's?

No.

No, I don't. Never heard...

I've never heard that voice ever
before, but she had many friends.

She was...

She was popular, it was hard
to keep up with everyone.

He states very clearly that
Edith tried to kill herself.

Is it not possible that
during those last days

that Edith hid her drug use
and her suicidal thoughts...?

It wasn't suicide.

If I thought for one second
Edith intended to harm herself

I would never have
left her on her own.

Never.

SHE SNIFFS

VOICE BREAKING: Edith's
overdose was an accident,

and your hospital missed an
opportunity to save her life.

I'm sorry.

Thank you.

You may step down now.

SHE CRIES

The post-mortem indicated Edith
was using opioids regularly.

There were multiple
puncture marks on her body

consistent with drug injection,

and hair follicle samples
contained opioid metabolites,

indicating long-term use.

In your opinion, did opioids
contribute to Edith's death?

Yes.

Toxicology and pathology confirm
intravenous administration

of the opioid drug fentanyl
caused Edith's death.

Had Edith taken a large
amount of fentanyl?

We found high levels of
fentanyl in Edith's blood.

63.8 micrograms per litre.

So, given the high levels of
fentanyl found in Edith's blood,

was the overdose likely to have
been deliberate or accidental?

Fentanyl is 50 times
stronger than heroin,

but a seasoned drug
user like Edith

would know you only need a
small amount to feel its effect.

So why did she take so much?

On the other hand, she could easily
just be pursuing a greater high

and miscalculated the dose.

Thank you. I have no
further questions.

Mrs Roberts?

No, sir. Sir Anthony?

No, sir.

In that case I'd like to thank
you, Dr Adeyemi. You may step down.

The next witness I would
like to call is Dr Eva Tait.

Dr Tait, would you care
to swear or affirm?

I'll swear.

In that case, there is a small
card on the ledge in front of you,

if you'd read from that, please.

"I swear by the Almighty God

"that the evidence I
give shall be the truth,

"the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth."

Thank you, Dr Tait, for taking
time out of your maternity leave

to be with us today.

The court much appreciates that.

It's the least I could do.

Now, you were Edith's
addiction consultant

at the Guelder Clinic
from May to October 2021?

Yes, that's right.

Edith had a complex
history of drug misuse,

including cocaine,
alcohol and heroin,

which was her main problem.

And she wanted to be free of it.

But she engaged well
with the treatment,

and she achieved this.

She was abstinent
when she left us.

So, was there any possibility
that she could have relapsed?

Well, yes, sadly.

For opiate addicts, their
risk of relapse is high.

Particularly now that it's
easier to buy synthetic opioids,

such as fentanyl,
on the streets.

And when Edith was
under your care

did she ever express
suicidal tendencies?

Yes.

Erm...

We did extensive work

on her negative thoughts
and core beliefs,

but her suicidal ideation
remained a prominent problem.

She...

It's OK, take your
time. Thank you.

It's very sad.

Why the hell didn't you say you
knew Edith from the Guelder Clinic?

Shh, Lucinda, have you
forgotten where we are?

We're at the inquest
of a girl who died

because Rob prescribed her fentanyl.
What the fuck was he thinking?

You can't prove that the
fentanyl came from Rob.

Edith could easily have
bought it off the street.

He told me he was
prescribing her...

He told me he was
prescribing her methadone.

She was a patient of YOURS.

No, she was not my
patient when she died.

I hadn't seen her for months.

No, Rob specifically called me

because he didn't want anyone
looking into his prescribing.

He was covering up what the
hell you two were doing.

No, I haven't done anything.

If Rob was prescribing for
Edith, I knew nothing about it.

OK, so how did he know them?

How did he know Camilla,
Alexander, all the other patients -

is it just a
fucking coincidence?

Is it just a coincidence that
they were all being treated

at the Guelder Clinic?

I have done nothing wrong,

but you have covered up,
what, three overdoses for Rob,

so you're just as
implicated now.

He was prescribing
legal drugs to addicts.

Yeah - addicts like you.

Listen to you, accusing
me and Rob and...

you seem to have forgotten
about your own drug habit.

I wonder what the MIU
would make of that?

You wouldn't dare. Wouldn't I?

If you don't stop
pointing the finger at us

I will have no choice.

And judging by the sound of
you, you're due a refill.

If you weren't so
busy accusing me

I might have been
able to help you.

Tom?

Abi?

I've gone through the A&E
notes for Alexander Taylor

and Camilla Woodham, but nothing
indicates Lucinda knew them.

SHE SIGHS

How was the inquest?

Oh, you know, long.

None of the RH team even
gave evidence today,

so it was just the pathologist,

Edith's psychiatrist from the
Guelder Clinic, and her mum.

The Guelder Clinic?

Wait, hold on.

I'm sure...

Oh, yeah, yeah.

Both Camilla and Alexander
were detoxed there.

Well, that can't
be a coincidence.

Could Lucinda have a
connection to the clinic?

Will you go there tomorrow
and see what you can find out?

Yeah, yeah. Will do.

LUCINDA MUTTERS

Camilla...

SHE MUTTERS

SHE EXHALES

In your statement,

you said there
weren't any options.

Edith was the most stable
patient, she needed to be moved,

so Dr Edwards showed
poor clinical judgement,

wasn't able to prioritise,

and delayed Edith's transfer
for, what, no reason?

Uh, perhaps, I don't remember.

Really?

You don't recall
pressurising Dr Edward's

into prioritising Patient X

because, I quote,
"She's just a child,"

over Edith who, I quote,

"Was just a junkie?"

MURMURING IN COURT No!

Well...

we have a statement from a porter
who alleges you did just that.

No, I would never use the word
junkie to describe a patient.

That's derogatory. I...

I just wouldn't... I
wouldn't use that word.

Hmm.

You know, sometimes
facts like that are...

Well, they're hard to
remember, aren't they?

No further questions, sir.

Thank you, Sir Anthony.

Mrs Roberts, any questions?

No, sir.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mrs Relph,
you're free to go.

Please step down.

Our next witness
is Dr Ramya Morgan.

Would you care to
swear or affirm?

I'll swear.

Would you like an
alternative text?

No, the regular
Bible's fine. Thanks.

OK, thank you.

If you would read from the
card in front of you, please.

"I swear by Almighty God

"that the evidence I
give shall be the truth,

"the whole truth, and
nothing but the truth."

Thank you.

Sir Anthony, your witness.

Dr Morgan.

SIR ANTHONY CLEARS HIS THROAT

Can you take us through
your involvement

in Edith's A&E care?

Um...

I was bleeped to
Resus to watch Edith

while Dr Edwards took care
of an emergency in reception.

And when she came back

I thought she would continue
looking after Edith,

but instead I was told a
Patient X needed Edith's bed,

and I was going to
Majors with Edith,

and Dr Edwards gave
me a treatment plan.

And what was that
treatment plan?

Dr Edwards asked me to give
800 micrograms naloxone,

and if Edith's breathing
improved, to let her know.

And what happened next?

Well, after the naloxone was given,
Edith's respiratory rate improved,

so I returned to Resus.

Leaving Edith alone?

There were other staff around.

But no-one dedicated
to her care, correct?

Correct.

Did you consider waiting
and observing Edith

to see if the improvement

in her breathing
would be maintained?

I waited to see the improvement.

And then you left - immediately?

No, no. Uh, not immediately.

Uh, I can't remember
how long I stayed.

Hmm.

Dr Morgan, do you know how quickly
the initial effects of naloxone

can wear off?

I now know.

But you didn't know when you
prescribed the drug for Edith?

Did you?

How long have you been
a qualified doctor?

About 18 months.

How long did Dr Edwards ask
you to wait and observe Edith?

I'm not...

I don't remember.

I'm so sorry, could you speak up,
so the whole court can hear you.

I don't remember.

And when you returned to Resus,

was Dr Edwards
grateful for your...

..extra pair of hands?

I don't remember.

Well, let me help
you there, shall I?

I'm quoting from her statement -

"When Dr Morgan
returned to Resus

"I asked her why she wasn't
with the overdosed patient."

So, clearly Dr Edwards
wasn't expecting you back,

so I'll ask you again,

why did you leave Edith so
quickly and return to Resus

to a different patient,

who was already being handled by
doctors with far more experience?

Dr Edwards never said that
I needed to stay longer

in case the naloxone
stopped working.

I'm sorry, are you saying
that Dr Edwards lied?

No, no.

What she said in her
written statement was false?

No, but I can only tell
you what I remember.

OK.

So, in this hospital,
full of competent doctors,

Dr Edwards didn't tell you
how long to wait with Edith,

and after 18 months as a
qualified medical practitioner

you didn't know how
long to wait either.

A&E is really hectic.

And patients turn up all
the time with conditions

that you don't
know how to treat,

so you have to rely on your seniors
for the support to work safely.

OK, so what you're
really saying is

that without instructions
from a senior

you don't know how
to treat an overdose.

No, I didn't say that.

But I'm a junior -
I'm there to learn,

and there's a lot to remember.

And after giving only one dose
of naloxone to my daughter,

you returned to Resus.

If you'd only waited
a few minutes more

you'd have noticed the initial
effects of the naloxone wearing off

and been able to
administer a second,

potentially life-saving
dose, but you left her...

..struggling to breathe
and under-medicated.

You effectively left
Edith to die, didn't you?

Hmm?

No further questions,
sir. Thank you.

Mrs Roberts, questions
from yourself?

No, sir.

Thank you. You may step down
when you're ready. Thank you.

Do you have any idea - any idea -
how damaging this is to the trust?

You threw me under the bus as soon
as he questioned your competence.

But I DIDN'T know
how long to wait.

And you didn't tell me the
naloxone would wear off so quickly.

Well, if you'd stayed
like I told you,

you would've seen how
quickly it wears off.

Instead you came to Resus. You
need to control your juniors, Leo.

This has got nothing to do
with me. I wasn't there.

Yeah, and you should have been...
Hey, come on, guys, guys, come on.

Come on, rein this in.

We CAN recover from this,

but it is all going to depend
heavily on you, Lucinda,

not messing it up
this afternoon.

You've got to stick to the
script. Have you got that?

Lucinda?

Have you?

I'm an A&E doctor, I'm not
a mental health specialist.

Assessing whether a patient

deliberately wanted
to kill themselves,

that should be done by
a psychiatrist, not me.

But Edith had deliberately
overdosed before.

Past behaviour usually
predicts future behaviour,

and in cases where
intent isn't clear

I always err on the side of
caution and code it as deliberate.

This ensures that the patients
are reviewed by psychiatry

prior to discharge.

And when did you become aware

that there was a problem
with Edith's care?

Shortly after we
stabilised Patient X

the alarms in Majors went off.

I ran to Edith, but she was
already in respiratory failure.

Edith shortly went
into cardiac arrest.

We worked on her for half an
hour but we never got her back.

Thank you, Dr Edwards. If
you'd wait there, please.

Sir Anthony, your witness.

Thank you, sir.

Dr Edwards, would
you say Dr Morgan

is prone to forgetting
simple instructions?

Uh...

We're all prone to
occasional forgetfulness.

Yes, but it's highly unlikely
that a doctor capable of learning

enough facts to pass her finals,
with distinction, 18 months prior,

wouldn't remember the
simple instructions

of watch, wait,
and repeat a dose?

Well, in normal
circumstances, yes.

But A&E isn't normal.

And with all due respect, sir,

memorising facts for an
exam is very different

to processing information

in a real-life,
high-pressure situation.

Yes, but even with
all this pressure,

Dr Morgan correctly remembered
the more complex details

you gave her vis-a-vis the
type of drug and the dose.

Isn't it more likely that your
instructions were unclear?

No, because she
wasn't listening.

Yes, you said that Dr
Morgan wasn't listening,

and your colleague
spoke of your reluctance

to leave Edith with
her, so why did you?

Because I had no choice and I had
to make a decision, that's why.

Yes, you made all the decisions.

You dithered, and Edith...
No. No, no. But I didn't...

..deteriorated. You chose
to leave Edith with a doctor

whose incompetence
has been shown today,

and that choice killed her.

MURMURING IN COURT

Are you not therefore
guilty of gross negligence?

Sir, this is NOT
a criminal court.

If I may remind counsel,

whilst I understand the emotional
distress of this hearing,

he must refrain from accusing
witnesses of criminal offences

they're not on trial for.

You treated my daughter
without diligence or due care.

A total disregard for the...

VOICE BREAKING:
..for the severity...

..of the symptoms.

Erm...

Sir, I apologise.

No further questions.

Thank you.

In that case, I'd like to
bring the session to a close.

I'll retire to
consider my verdict.

We will reconvene
in... three hours.

Thank you.

Thank you, Dr Edwards,
you may step down.

And thank you, everyone
else, for your time.

Excuse me, Sir
Anthony, I just...

I'm very sorry for your loss.

Can I get a bottle of
the liquid NightSoothe.

Yeah. Yeah, and...

..the one-a-night.

These both contain diphenhydramine,
so don't take them both together.

They're sedatives.

Take one tablet at bedtime
or a dose of the liquid...

Yeah, I'm a doctor, I
know how to take them.

All right, OK.

SHE SIGHS For fuck sake.

SHE EXHALES

Hello! Hello!

How did it go? Awful.

Let's just say I'm happy to
be back on the shop floor.

What are you doing? Are
you STILL doing that audit?

I've told you, Oscar, nobody
wastes medication in my A&E.

You know that.

Mm, you sure about that?

Mm-hm. Yeah?

What's this?

A patient that Ramya
saw with Lucinda.

The patient needed 10, not
40, milligrams of diazepam.

Hang on, are you telling me
that Ramya threw away 30mg?

Come on, it might
not be Ramya's fault.

Maybe they thought the
patient needed that much.

No, Oscar. Absolutely not.

40mg of diazepam
for mild sedation?

That sounds like a Ramya
cock up, doesn't it?

Listen... Mm?

..if you take medication
from the store

it is your responsibility
to make sure

you take the amount
that's actually needed.

I know. Right.

Hi. Hi. Can I help you?

Yes, my name's Dr George Adjei from
the Medical Investigation Unit.

We're investigating a doctor

who treated four of
your former patients -

Edith Owusu, Camilla Woodham,
Alexander Taylor and Milo Hanbury.

One of our doctors? She's
called Dr Lucinda Edwards.

She's currently at the RH,

but I was hoping you could tell
me if she's ever worked here

or has any connection
to the clinic.

The name isn't familiar, but I'll
check our staffing records. Thanks.

No, no, she's never worked here.

Oh.

Has the clinic ever received
a referral from Dr Edwards?

No. Or have you ever referred
any patients to her at the RH?

No, no, there's nothing.

The name isn't
anywhere on our system.

OK. Uh...

Could I get copies of the notes
for the patients I mentioned?

I'm afraid not. We...

We would written consent
from each patient first.

Fine, can you contact and ask?

Of course, yeah.

I'll let you know.
Do you have a card?

Oh, sorry. One...

Edith was treated
by a Dr Eva Tait -

do you know if any
of the others were?

I... I can check.

No, no, they all had
different doctors.

Besides, Dr Tait's
on maternity leave,

she hasn't worked
here for six months.

Right.

I can tell you they were
all successfully detoxed

and rehabilitated
during their time here.

They were all completely drug
free when they were discharged?

Yeah.

We've broken that revolving
door addiction-patient tradition

so often perpetuated by the NHS.

Once our clients are discharged,
they don't need to come back.

They get what they pay for.

But the patients I mentioned
all relapsed and overdosed

after leaving this clinic.

You know Edith Owusu died?

Well, that had nothing to do with
the treatment they received here.

Yeah, but...

it's not what they
paid for, right?

No complaints have ever been
made against the Guelder Clinic.

OK. Not yet, but if
you keep focusing

on getting patients
out of the door quickly

instead of giving
them proper treatment,

it won't take long, will it?

Is that everything?

Yeah, for now.

Thanks.

Edith had taken a large amount
of a dangerous opioid, fentanyl.

It's impossible to determine

whether she intended
to take her own life,

or whether this was accidental.

Whilst I can find no fault with
the doctors' actions in relation

to the outcome of
Edith's overdose,

I find it unacceptable
that a doctor

working in a high-pressure
environment like A&E

should be reliant on
instruction from a senior

to correctly treat
an opioid overdose.

There is, therefore,

something amiss in the
training of junior doctors

within the Royal
Hospital's A&E department.

And, as such, I shall write

a prevention of
future deaths report

recommending the trust review
its medical education programme.

I would like to give
a narrative conclusion

that Edith Owusu died

following the self administration
of a large quantity of fentanyl,

resulting in cardiac
arrest and death.

That is the end
of my conclusion.

I would like to thank
you for your time,

and please feel free to leave.

Well, that could have
been loads worse.

Were you listening to
a different verdict?

Thank you so much for all
your hard work today, Lucinda.

You really did us proud.

Hey, all right, Mike. Leave it.

She did her best, yeah?

MIKE SIGHS

Are you happy now?

Excuse me?

Edith's death wasn't my
fault - I assume we're done.

You know that's
not how this works.

Oh, mate, you're so
lucky you were out of it.

I mean, it was
horrendous. Oh, really?

It literally made me feel like
the worst doctor in the world.

All I do is try my best, and
every time I get shat on.

I mean, what is the point?

Hey, our jobs make a difference.

Do they? Yeah.

OK, how long have you been
working on that audit for?

And is it really going to
save the department any money?

Yeah, actually, I
think it will, yeah.

I don't know. I think you should've
recycled last year's audit,

like the rest of us.

It's a tick-box exercise,
Oscar, nobody actually cares.

THUMP Being an A&E
doctor is a privilege,

and maybe instead of
complaining all the time

you should focus on your work

and then you wouldn't make
so many mistakes, would ya?

Sorry, what the fuck
have I done this time?

Sorry, it may be my bad.

I may have mentioned a
dispensing error that you made.

What?! When?

HE GROANS

Takes a look at that.

Lucinda told me to get 40mg,

and I even questioned the
dose at the time. I said...

I wouldn't worry
about this, all right?

Look, look, look, my
audits... Oscar...

Listen, my audits aren't
about individual mistakes,

they're about saving money

that we're wasting on
chucking unused meds, OK?

Beth's going to get over it.

SHE SIGHS

Hmm.

Right, so, Edith, Alexander,
Camilla and Milo were all treated

by different doctors
at the Guelder Clinic.

Eva Tait wasn't even
there when they overdosed,

she was on maternity leave.

So, Lucinda is still the only
concrete link we have between them.

Shit.

Well, besides them relapsing

and deliberately
overdosing after discharge.

Isn't it odd that they all
tried to kill themselves?

And using the same method -
I mean, what are the chances?

Isn't it more likely that
they came out of treatment

and accidentally overdosed because
they'd been off drugs for a while?

But if that were true...

..why would Lucinda code
them all as deliberate? Look.

Do we have Edith's file here?

Yeah, yeah, sure.

Oh, yeah, here you go.

All right, we asked Lucinda
that in her first interview.

And she said she changed
this to deliberate

to ensure Edith
got a psych review.

She said it again at
the inquest, but...

what if she...

What if she just didn't want
anyone to know it was an accident?

But what does she stand to gain
by coding them as deliberate

if she knew they were accidents?

Because when it's an accident

you look at what
caused the accident.

The drugs!

Yes.

The drugs.

We've been focusing
on the wrong thing.

Her parents had Edith stop buying
street drugs a long time ago.

So... where was
she getting them?

KNOCK ON DOOR

We understand your disappointment
at the coroner's conclusions.

Edith deserved better.

If those doctors had
done their job properly,

Edith would still be alive.

Well...

regarding that,

we would really
appreciate your permission

to take a little look
around Edith's flat.

What for?

Well, we're looking for
anything that might tell us

where she got the
drugs she overdosed on.

Are you trying to say that it
was Edith's fault that she died?

No, not at all.

We feel there might be
potentially something in there

linking Edith to whoever
supplied her with the fentanyl

that ended her life.

Hmm...

Is she... behind the mirror?

ABI LAUGHS Nope!

Behind the curtain?

No!

Mummy, Mummy, where are you?

OUT OF BREATH: Is she...

..on top of the bed?

SHE SIGHS No.

PHONE VIBRATES

ABI TALKS INDISTINCTLY

RINGING

Hello. Camilla... Camilla, hi.

This isn't Rob.

No, no, I'm the new doctor
that took over from Rob.

OK, can we meet at
Southern Square?

Yeah, I can meet you
there in half an hour.

Right. OK, great.

OK, see you then.

Mummy, come and find me.

Is she...

..under the bed? ABI SCREAMS

THEY LAUGH

I haven't been out of the house
since the inquest. Please.

Yeah, it's fine. OK, OK. Yeah?

Yeah, yeah. Fine, fine, fine.

Are you going to
be good for Daddy?

These are stickers! Oh,
she's got stickers for you!

Come show me, what
have you got there?

Thank you again so much for
this. We really do appreciate it.

OK, so, this key is
for the front door

and this key is to
Edith's flat - Flat B.

You're not coming in?

Uh... it's too difficult.

Just put the key through the
letterbox when you're done.

Thank you.

Did you remember gloves?

Oh. Yes.

Um, well, I'll take this
room and the kitchen,

and you take that first
bedroom on the way in,

and the middle one,
and that bathroom.

Yes, boss. All right.

Excuse me, uh, Camilla?

Yeah. Jesus fucking Christ.

Jesus...

We've actually met before.

I treated you a couple
of months ago in A&E.

OK.

Well, I don't pay this much
to be kept waiting, so...

Oh, of course.

Fentanyl, 50 patches,
enough for a month.

Did you say a month?

Yeah, that's what
Rob prescribes me.

PEN SCRATCHING

There's a week prescription.

A week?

What the fuck am I
meant to do with that?

I don't know. You figure it out.

You're either going to
take it or leave it.

CAMILLA SCOFFS

How do you pay Rob? Do
you pay him here or later?

I pay the pharmacy,
like I usually do.

See ya.

Norma!

Right, are you ready for
some dinner, darling?

What are you doing?

Eh, Abi?

Abi?

PHONE VIBRATES

Come on, come on!

HORN BEEPS TYRES SCREECH

Come on, move!

Help in bay four, please.

Help, please, help.

Here.

Tom? She's not...

She wasn't breathing, she
was just lying there. OK, OK.

Just calm down, take a breath.
Now tell me what happened.

I think she got hold of some...

some diazepam.

Can you page ITU now, please?

Is she going to be OK?

Are you sure it was diazepam?

Yeah, there was an empty strip of
10mg tablets lying next to her.

Why do you have that strength of
diazepam lying around the house?

I had a...

a shoulder injury. I
had a prescription.

OK, and how many tablets
were left in the strip?

I don't know,
maybe a couple. OK.

Is she going to be OK? Even if
there was only one... Yeah, OK.

Tell me she's not going to die.
We're going to need flumazenil.

Beth, could you give her 120
micrograms over 15 seconds

and set up an infusion,
please. Thank you.

She's not going to die, is she?

She's going to be fine. She's
not going to die, is she?

Need airways securing? Yes,
please, thank you, Sam.

And could someone take Tom to
the relatives' room, please?

Come on, it's just this way.

PHONE BEEPS Luce, it's Tom.

You have to come... Come to
the hospital. We're in A&E.

It's Abi, she's
really sick, right?

So just come... come
to the hospital.

Call me back. Call me...

Hi.

Hey, are you all
right? How can I help?

The young lady who was
just in here, I'm her GP.

Erm, what young lady?

The one who just paid you for
her fentanyl prescription.

She paid the normal NHS
prescription charge,

like everybody else, so...

I know she paid you extra.

Can I speak to your
manager, please?

I don't want to cause any trouble,
I would just like to meet them.

Right, yeah. Wait
here. Thank you.

Luce, just pick up your phone.
Why aren't you picking up?

HE EXHALES Fucking...

HE BREATHES DEEPLY

TOM: Luce, it's Tom.

Pick up your phone, it's
Abi. She's not well.

OK? Just come to the hospital.
Are you all right? Abi...

Abi's not well. She's
taken some pills.

Lucinda, it's Beth, I need
you to come into the hospital.

Call me back. He's waiting
for you in the back.

Pick up your fucking

Lucinda, it's Leo here...

Do you want me to
go and get him?

possibly can, please.
