LORRAINE: Tanya Aitken, 23,

front-seat passenger
in two-vehicle MVA,

car versus stationary car.

Unconscious at scene.

GCS initially 4 but now 13.

Rouses to pain.

Alright. Dan, where's Frank?

DAN: I don't know. We just need
to get her assessed first.

What will they do to her?

You can be with her
but we need to check you out.

I'm fine.
It's just a bump.

I've got a bit of a headache.
Okay, okay.

Was Tanya driving?
No, I was.

Then we'll do a blood alcohol level.
It's the law.

I haven't been drinking, mate.
(blows air) See?

Dude, we just need
to get a blood sample

and then we'll take you
straight back here, okay?

Well, alright.
Just make it quick.

What have we got, Lorraine?
Swiped a parked car.

Tanya took the impact
on the passenger side.

Not responding to speech
and painful stimuli.

BP's 112/74. Heart rate's at 120.
Sats are at 98% on O2.

Base, we've just unloaded
at All Saints.

We'll be clear in one minute.
Alan? Where's Alan?

VON: It's okay, it's okay.
He's fine.

He'll be here soon.

Boyfriend's a panic merchant.

He'll be hovering
over your shoulder.

Where's the boss?
Dr Campion, I mean.

Oh. Not here.

What do you mean?

Bart, I need a cannula in, please.

CATE: I've got it.

What are we looking at here?

Head and spinal injuries,
internal bleeding.

Usual bloods?
Yeah.

And a head CT and C-spine,
thanks, Cate.

Her abdo is soft. No tenderness.
So, where to from here?

Uh... her vitals are stable and
she's breathing unassisted, and...

She has a head lac
that may need suturing.

Possible fractured right wrist.
Suspected rib fractures.

Should I organise
a chest and wrist X-ray as well?

Yeah, do that.

KYLE: Just up ahead.

Yeah. Yeah, I got it.

There's Saunders.

Alright. Let's get some details.

What have we got, Pete?

The victim is a young woman
in her mid to late 20s.

Looks like
she'd finished her shopping

when a car came up from behind
and some bastard snatched her bag.

My guess is she wouldn't let go
and she was dragged over to here.

Do we have a name?

Not officially,
with no handbag or purse,

but she's wearing a bracelet
with "Lisa" engraved on it.

Right.

Hi. I'm Lorraine.

Lisa, Lisa is it? Can you hear me?

Keep your head still.
(groans)

I'm with the ambulance service.
Can you hear me?

Good girl, good girl.

I'll get the collar and spine board.
Yep.

Can you hold
her head steady for me?

Yeah.

Ta.

Lisa, can you remember what happened?

It pisses me off.
These cowards, picking an easy mark.

Anyone get a numberplate?
Not so far.

(Lisa groans)
Keep your head steady.

It's okay. You're going to be okay.

I'm just checking you over.

BART: Almost done.

VON: BP 116/76. Heart rate's 110
and sats are 98% on O2.

Is that good?

CHARLOTTE: She's regaining
consciousness,

but we'll need to continue
monitoring her.

For how long?
We'll know when we do more tests.

How'd you go?
DAN: Yeah, done the blood alcohol.

He's got a superficial head lac.

Neuro obs are fine.

He's got a bit of a headache

but he doesn't want a doctor
to do anything.

If you don't need me here,
we've got another trauma incoming.

Okay.

You be alright without me?
Mm-hm.

Hey, medical notes
from five years ago.

No known allergies,
diabetes or asthma.

Thank you.

Hey, Tan. It's me, Alan. It's okay.

We've had a bit of an accident,
but we'll be alright, okay?

I'll get you out of here real soon.
Nice work, Doctor.

Sutures need to be removed
in seven to ten days.

Oh, we don't have that long.

We were on our way to the airport.

They don't have to be removed here.

Where were you off to?

Hawaii, yeah.
Bit of a dream holiday.

She doesn't know this yet,

but I was going to propose to her
on Monday - it's our anniversary.

Can't bear to be away from her
for more than two seconds.

Anyway, we've missed our flight,
but there is another one tonight.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

We need to make sure
that Tanya's okay.

And I certainly wouldn't
be recommending either of you fly

right after a car accident.

I'm fine, and Tanya's pretty tough.
I'll look after her.

This isn't about being tough, Alan.

Hey, Tan. Hey, it's okay.

DAN: Sean, trauma incoming.

SEAN: No sign of Frank yet?

No, and I have never known him
to be late.

Surprise.

Are you back?

Technically, no.

What are you doing here?

Three-year-old girl
with tetralogy of Fallot.

No bypass facilities or perfusionists
where she comes from.

And she's an orphan.

Wouldn't get on the plane
unless I did too.

Who's that?

Charlotte's boyfriend.

Are you helping with surgery?

Cardiac surgeon
wants me to come on board, yeah.

How long are you here for?

I fly back out tomorrow morning.

You can't.

I don't finish until really late,
Spence.

I'm a patient man, Charlotte,
you know that.

And I need a place to crash.
Any suggestions?

Come with me, I'll give you my keys.

LORRAINE: Female, mid 20s.
Victim of bag-snatch.

Dragged along by car.

Unconscious, breathing
spontaneously.

Anterior dislocation
of the left shoulder

and probable displaced fracture
of the right ankle.

Do we have a name?

Sorry, no. Lisa's all we got.
No positive ID.

Alright, thanks, Lorraine.

Pupils equal and reactive.

Should I put in
a second cannula?

Yeah.

And take bloods for FBCs, UECs, LFTs,
group, hold, and cross-match.

There's good circulation to the
fingertips on the dislocated side.

Ouch.

No wonder she's shaking, Sean.
Look at that.

Give her 2.5mg of morphine.

The surgical guys
will need to remove that in Theatre.

I just would have
let go of the handbag.

Not that I carry a handbag,
Lorraine.

Yeah, whatever.

She's got a lot of bruising
in the upper left quadrant.

Should I put up
a litre-bag of normal saline?

Yeah.

She needs a head CT, abdo,
left shoulder and right ankle X-rays.

Should I start prepping
for the shoulder reduction?

No, we'll do it
after she's back from Radiology.

Where the hell is Frank?
I don't know.

Will you find out
what's going on?

Do you think that's wise?

You're the Nursing Unit Manager -
comes with the job.

I wouldn't like to be the one
to wake him.

Frank?

Please don't still be in bed, Frank.

FRANK: Campion.

Ah, Dr Campion, hi.
It's Dan Goldman here.

What do you want, Goldman?

I was wondering
if you were coming in to work today.

I'm not coming in.
Didn't you get my memo?

No, I, um... I didn't get anything.

I am taking a personal day.

Isn't that what we call it
in these enlightened times?

You are?
Don't get so happy about it.

It's not going to let you
off the hook.

I want those pharmacy inventories
on my desk

and you'd better be
on top of the rosters.

Mm-hm. Is everything alright?

Everything is wonderful.

Have you looked out the window
this morning?

It's an absolutely glorious day.

So, bugger off and don't spoil it
by calling again.

Okay.

FRANK: Is it like
I said it would be, darling?

Isn't it good how the grapes grow
in nice, neat, little rows?

I see it but I don't believe it.
Frank Campion's chucked a sickie.

Two, actually.

Hey, Kathleen.
Have you chucked a sickie too?

Sing songs.

That's right.

It's a long way to come
to hear me sing.

Well, I was hoping
to drink some fine wine

and also spend some time
with a friend.

Kathleen, why don't I show you
the grapes, let Dad check in.

CHARLOTTE: Alright, Tanya, let me
know if you feel any pain, okay?

Alright, now, just to the side.

Doesn't hurt?

No, that's fine.
Well, good.

Your X-rays said
you had no spinal or neck injuries,

so that hard collar can stay off,

and there is no evidence
of rib fractures.

That's great.
We can get out of here.

Charlotte, blood results are back.
You better take a look at them.

Thanks, Dan.

Um, this isn't what we'd expect
to find, Tanya.

Your renal function
is slightly abnormal

and your serum sodium is elevated.

What's that mean?

It could just be dehydration,

or there could be something else
going on here.

She's been fasting a lot lately,
haven't you, sweetheart?

You want to look sexy
on those Hawaiian beaches.

I told her it wasn't a good idea,
but don't worry -

I'll pamper her
when we get there, promise.

Time to go, huh?

Hey. Steady.

There are tests I need to run

before you can even think
about going home.

I need to make sure that her blood
chemistry has returned to normal.

Hey, listen, we've waited
a long time for this holiday.

We're not about
to spend half of it in here.

Be reasonable, mate. Tanya is sick.

Yeah, right.
Try telling that to the airlines.

We didn't get travel insurance, so
if we miss our next flight, then...

We can write a letter that will
explain the whole situation.

Thanks, but...
Come on, Tan. Let's go.

I told you, steady on.

Tanya, listen, you were unconscious
when you came in,

so you need to stay
four hours for observation.

We don't have four hours.
Tanya, this is important.

Look, you can't hold her
against her will, okay?

I need you to understand
that if you leave here,

you're putting yourself at risk.

I... I feel okay, honest.
I want to go.

Come on.

VON: Tanya, this is serious.
Just think about what you're doing.

Now come on.

ALAN: Come on, we've gotta go.

Look, if you care about Tanya,
just don't do this, please.

It's okay.
I'm going to look after her.

She'll be fine.

Look, if I can't guarantee that,
you certainly can't.

If she gets any worse,
I'll bring her straight back.

She's just a bit shaken up.
She needs a holiday, don't you?

Look, I need her to sit down.

I just need some fresh air...

No, I need to take
your blood pressure.

She doesn't need anything taken.

She just needs some fresh air.
Thanks, it's okay.

Alright, alright.
If that's what you want.

You've got to sign the discharge
papers. Just wait there.

Great, great. Okay. You go.

CATE: I'll get the oxygen.

JACK: Get a line in.
Occluding her airway.

MIKE: Hurry up, Riki.

Come on, Ricky.
ERICA: What drugs do you need?

MIKE: Midazolam 10mg, phenytoin 5mg.
Yep. Got it.

Alan, Tanya doesn't have epilepsy,
does she?

Uh, yeah. Yeah, she does.

Why didn't you tell us that before?
Because it wasn't relevant.

From now on, you let me be
the judge of what's relevant.

MIKE: Pupils are up
like dinner plates.

Probably just
the midazolam and phenytoin.

She could be having
an intracerebral bleed.

Her head CT's clear,

and there was no history of epilepsy
in her previous notes.

Yep. BP's 158/99.

Heart rate's 122
and her temp's up - 38.9.

Clinical picture just doesn't add up.

She vomited, then she was clutching
her stomach before the seizure.

Gotta be something happening down
there. What are you feeling, Jack?

Possibly a small mass
in the right lower quadrant.

What's going on?

Hey, come on.
You've gotta stay out of here.

Let's get an abdo X-ray.
I'll do it.

What's his story?

More worried about missing out
on his holiday

than his girlfriend's health,
perhaps.

Maybe he's not ready
to accept the fact

there's something wrong with her.

Where's Frank Campion?

He's in Admin all day.

Yeah. Right.

Don't you eat
any of those grapes, Kathleen,

they might have been sprayed.

Come on.

What are you doing?

Having fun.
You should try it some time.

I don't go outside naked.

What are you afraid of, Frank?

It can be dangerous without shoes.

You've got spiders and snakes
and tetanus...

Why do you think
about everything so much?

When was the last time you felt
the earth between your toes?

(scoffs)

I think too much time
on overly polished hospital floors

isn't good for you.

Dark, dingy clubs are better,
are they?

Score one for the physician.

I am looking forward
to trying some of the reds, though.

Yeah, right.

The real reason you're here -
wine-tasting.

Hey, Kathleen. Wait up.

See, it's not so hard.

Well, if I step in a cow turd,
you'll know about it.

Come on, Kathleen.
I'll race you to the creek.

Ow!

Oh, Jesus.

(groans)
It's okay, it's okay.

Come on, you have
to stay really still.

It's really important.

Guys, I need some help here.

We're going to get you
something for the pain.

She's just come around.

SEAN: Give her another
2.5mg of morphine.

Let's get her into the cubicle.

DAN: It's okay, Lisa.
You're in hospital now, okay?

No, no, no! Don't do that.

We'll give you something
for the pain. It won't be long.

Jasper. Where's Jasper?

Who's Jasper?
My baby.

Where's my baby?

What little boy?

His name's Jasper.
He's two years old.

Lisa said that she was with him
at the shopping centre.

There wasn't any little boy
with her.

Are you sure she's not confused?
Well, she's in and out with pain.

No, she's lucid -
and her surname's Olsen, Lisa Olsen.

There's a crime scene set up,
so the cops are there.

I'll get them onto it.

Meantime, get me
as much detail as you can -

height, colouring
and what he was wearing.

Photo would be good.

See what I can do.
Tell Mum not to stress.

Just... You keep me posted.

I'll call you
as soon as I know.

You need to stay still until
we can get the shoulder sorted out.

Can you remember what happened?

Not really.

He's asthmatic. He needs his puffer.

It's such a big place.
He's so little.

Lisa, there's lots of people
out there looking for him, okay?

Yeah. We just need
to give them some time.

I'll let them know
about the asthma, okay?

Yep. What have we got here?

Head CT and C-spine are NAD.

The ankle is fractured.

The shoulder X-ray shows an anterior
dislocation, but it looks stable.

It should be an easy reduction.

There's a clear
left lower rib fracture here,

and the inferior splenic margin
is slightly displaced.

So you want me to do
a contrast abdo CT?

Yeah.

What does all that mean?

It means that we have to
go back to Radiology...

Oh!

..just to see if you've
damaged anything internally.

No, no. I'm not going anywhere
until they find Jasper.

He'll think that I have left him.
He'll be terrified.

Lisa, listen...
I've got to go find him!

Listen. Hey, we're onto it, okay?

Now, you have to take this test
so that when we find Jasper,

you're going to be well enough
to look after him, okay?

Hey. I know you're frightened.

He's just a little baby, you know?

He's going to be so scared.

Um, Tanya's X-rays.
Might want to take a look.

Yep.

Alright.
This is her original head CT.

We should review it
in case I've missed something.

Mm-hm.

There's no sign
of intracerebral bleed.

No. So, where does that leave us?

Back with epilepsy, I guess.

Okay.

This is Tanya's abdo X-ray.

Right.

I guess that means we can
put the epilepsy on the backburner.

I take it they are
what I think they are.

Yep, and they're not going to trap
any little sperm

sitting there in her large bowel,
are they.

There's got to be at least
20 condoms of drugs in there.

Pretty small condoms,
aren't they?

So, I guess the clinical picture's
not quite so confusing, is it?

No.

Dilated pupils, stomach cramps,
vomiting, pain in the guts.

All makes sense.
Leakage from the condoms.

Just one will do it.

Alright. I'll call the police.

Better get them out of her
quick-smart

or we're going to have
one sick young girl on our hands.

I need a surgeon now.

Don't come any closer. I mean it.

Yep, I'm sure you do.

It's Alan, isn't it?

Alan, my name's Mike Vlasek.

Now, I know why you need a surgeon,

so, let's just get our cards
on the table here.

I'm not interested in the drugs.
All I want is for my patient to live.

Now, one or more of the condoms
in Tanya's stomach has burst.

The contents of the drugs
are leaking into her system.

Don't think I don't know
what I'm doing with this, alright?

It's filled with air.

I stick it into an artery
in her neck, and she dies.

What are her obs?
She's deteriorating.

BP's 160/100. Heart rate 110.
Sats 94% and falling.

Shut up! Shut up!

You, surgeon.
Get the drugs out of her, now.

That was the plan.

I can't do it here.
I need an operating theatre.

Then I'm coming with you.

I'm sorry,
that's not going to happen.

Do not tell me what to do!

You get the stuff he needs
for the operation.

And you, get away from her,
I mean it.

Make it quick.

Come on, come on.

39.4.

We're going to need cooling packs
for the groin and axilla.

Stay where you are.

I have to get her temperature down.

Nobody is going to leave this room,
alright?

Then Tanya is going to die.
I won't do the operation here.

Then I will.

Alan, you'll kill her.

Do you think I care?
You said she'd die anyway!

She will if we stand around here
talking about it any longer.

Don't think that I won't use this,
alright?

Resps are increasing. Sats down 90%.

BP 170/105. Heart rate 140.

Hear that alarm, Alan?

Tanya is deteriorating. She's getting
worse. She's going to die.

Well, turn it off.
I can't do that.

Just shut up! Shut up! All of you.
I just... I need to think.

Alright, well, think about this.

You cut your girlfriend open
and get the drugs out, okay?

What happens next? We called the cops
as soon as we saw the X-ray.

Shut up.
They'll be here soon.

Five minutes until they're here.

Now, here's what's going to happen,
Alan.

Now, I'm going to take Tanya out of
here and up to the operating theatre

and hopefully
we're going to save her life.

Now, you can go. Just run.
I'm not going to stop you.

That way we all win. Okay?

Come on, Alan.

You don't want a murder charge
on top of everything else, right?

Stay back! Stay back.

Back, back!

Stay back. Get away!

Nobody go near this man.
Get out of here.

Call theatre,
tell the we're on our way.

Tell them that
she'll need prepping up there.

Are you okay?

Hey, it's Erica in the ED.

Mike Vlasek needs a theatre ready
for an urgent laparotomy.

Call security.

Get security down here.

LORRAINE: Pete...

Yeah?

Hasn't anyone reported
seeing him?

No, but we got her handbag.
We found it up the road.

There's no money in it,

but there was this asthma spray
and also this photo.

That's one cute little boy.
Yeah.

Now all we've got to do is find him.

I'll get this copied
and distributed.

How far can a two-year-old get
in this amount of time?

We should have come up
with something, you know,

someone who saw him or...

I'm starting to worry whether the
handbag was what they were after.

Maybe the boy
was the target all along.

What do you reckon these pills are?

Never seen an eccy before, Jack?
You should get out more.

Probably MDMA.
That's the purist form of ecstasy.

It's worth more.

Drug-smugglers love it.

Just extend the incision a bit.

Okay, yeah.
I can see the condoms now.

You see that white residue?
Mm-hm.

Yeah, that's our problem there.
Some of the condoms have ruptured.

We're going to need to dilute it.

Irrigate.

It's okay.

Now just pull the intact condoms out
by hand, but just take it easy.

We don't want to rupture any more.

There we go.

I know there's a lot of cash
in running drugs,

but look at this mess.

Why would you risk your life, huh?

Money talks.

What sort of street value
are we looking at?

If it is MDMA, then, I don't know -

I'd say she'd have swallowed more
than half a million bucks worth.

How much does Tanya get?

Working for her boyfriend,
not a lot, I guarantee you that.

A few more.

A bit quiet in here, isn't it?

MUSIC STARTS

Mike.

You seen many of these cases before?

Too many.

You'd be surprised
where people stash this stuff.

I thought there was two,
maybe three options.

I didn't think
there were that many orifices.

You'd think so, wouldn't you.

I had a case once where a woman had
the drugs implanted in her breasts.

That was a disaster with a double-D.

Very funny.

Right.

That is the last one.

Okay.

Careful check before we close.

That should do it.

Okay. Let's get her back.

Suture.

Your CT scan confirms
a slight tear to your spleen.

At the moment,
the bleeding's contained,

but we need to monitor it carefully.

The police have found your handbag.
And Jasper?

Not yet,
but they have a photo now,

so we just need to know
what he was wearing today.

A yellow T-shirt, denim shorts,
brown vest, and his blue gumboots.

It's not like he needs them
in this weather,

but I just can't get them off him.

Great. I'll let them know.

Can we call anyone?

Jasper's dad or...

Bastard lives in California.

Made a late decision
he didn't want kids.

That's terrible.

I'd like to keep Lisa nil by mouth
and arrange a surgical review.

I'll write up fluid
and antibiotic orders,

but first,
we need to pop that shoulder back in.

Sure.
Can't it wait?

I mean, please.
I've got to go help find my son.

Just strap it or something,
give me some pain-killers.

It wouldn't be enough, Lisa.

Your shoulder needs
to be put back in place

to avoid long-term
nerve and muscle damage.

He could be anywhere.
Someone may have taken him.

We know the people
out looking for him, Lisa.

They won't stop until they find him.

And you want to be able
to hug Jasper properly

once they find him, won't you?

Okay. Okay. Fix my shoulder.

TENSE MUSIC

You alright?

Someone's got to have seen him, Pete,
for God's sake.

He can't have disappeared
into thin-bloody-air.

So many toddlers running around.

I've seen a Batman,
I've met two Harry Potters,

but no boy in blue gumboots.

Then why haven't you got
more people out looking for him?

I've got back-up on the way,
alright?

Sorry.
Should be here shortly.

Yep, sorry.

You want to leave this with us?
I'm checking the toilets again.

Nearly there. Keep going.

(winces)

CRACK!

That's got it.

Right. All done.

Alright, Lisa. How do you feel?

Better.

Bart, follow-up care?

Post-reduction X-ray is indicated.

Stabilise the arm in a collar
and cuff for a month,

and write up a script for Ibuprofen.

Good. I'll get all that under way.

Sean, hang on, wait up.

BP's dropped to 100/60.
Pulse is 105.

I need to look
at your abdomen again, Lisa.

Oh!
Sorry, I know it hurts.

No, it's fine.

There's some distension
in the upper left quadrant.

Get me the FAST machine, Cate.
Yep.

And cross-match her with four units
of packed cells.

Got it.
We need surgical on this.

Von, I'm going to need an incident
report when you have a moment.

Done yours, I suppose?

Yep.

Hope you put in the bit about how
long it took security to get here.

Well, they still haven't arrived.

Where the hell are they?

I don't know.

No, Dan, that's not good enough.
They should be here by now.

I know that.

One of us have to end up dead

before they're going
to do anything about it?

I want the drugs! I want them now!

Mate, I don't have them.

The cops took them
from theatre.

I haven't seen cops
leave the building.

It's a big hospital.
There are lots of exits.

Tanya came out of the operation okay.
That's the main thing, right?

Do you think I care?
Mules can be replaced, drugs can't.

Fine. Don't make things worse
than they are for you.

If I don't get them
I'm a dead man.

If you don't get them so are you.
The cops took them.

Alan? Hey?

Alan! Oi!

Mate, can you hear me?

Open your eyes, mate.

Hey! Somebody!

Alan? Open your eyes, mate.

Somebody, help!

Alan?

Not getting a pulse here.

CHARLOTTE: Alright. I'm in.

Bilateral air entry.

Commencing cardiac compressions.

Adrenaline 1mg,
and prep some atropine.

Adrenaline going in.

Alright, Von, I'll need another
line in and a toxicology screen.

Got it.

Maybe he's a condom vending machine.
Could explain the arrhythmia.

Both pupils fixed and dilated.

There's something else going on.

Well, he was involved in an MVA
this morning.

He did complain of a mild headache.

And he might have had
an intracerebral bleed.

Possibly.

We need to stabilise him
before we do anything else.

Are you okay there, Lisa?
We're almost done.

BART: What is it?

Subcapsular bleed has ruptured.
When was her last scan?

Two hours ago,
but we've monitored her closely.

ALARM BEEPS
BP's dropped down to 80/52.

Hang a bag of gel
and let's get that blood up, hey?

What's wrong?

The injury to your spleen
is getting worse.

You've started bleeding
into your abdomen.

We'll give you
a blood transfusion.

Will that fix it?

Well, no, that's just for now.

I need to get you into theatre

and repair the damage to your spleen
and stop the bleeding.

We'll need your consent for that.

No.

Lisa, if we don't operate,
you'll continue to bleed.

Now, you're already in
a fairly critical stage, so...

I said I'm not going anywhere,
not till they find my son.

Nil output.
Resume compressions.

VON: Okay, I'll see if I can find
some medical history.

Von, he's been down too long.

Pupils are fixed and dilated.

Stop?

MONITOR FLATLINES

Heart and breath sounds are absent.

Exactly how long has he been down?

42 minutes.

Right, that's enough.

Time of death 14:27.

VON: Chalk another one up
to security.

I'll see if I can contact his kin.

Sure had me fooled.

Prick.

Can't wait any longer.
I agree.

If Lisa won't give consent...

We'll get informed consent
from her next of kin.

And if you can't get that,
then we'll get her on an order.

CATE: On what grounds?

On the grounds she's unnecessarily
bleeding into her gut.

More importantly,

she's not in any emotional state
to make an informed decision.

She's a mother
worried about her child.

It's hardly an irrational state -
she's scared.

She needs to know
her son's gonna be okay.

What she needs is surgery, now.

Mothers put their kids' welfare
ahead of them all the time, Mike.
(Dan mutters)

I'm not talking about
jumping into the river

to save a drowning child.

I'm not saying that either,

but if this is what she wants,
you will have to respect that.

Will her son thank us
if he finds his mother in the morgue?

You're the attending doctor.
I need a decision.

So, the patient's opinion on all
this doesn't count for anything?

Under these circumstances, no.
Neither does yours.

She's still bleeding, Sean.
What's it going to be?

I'll get Alison Newell on the phone.

I need approval from the Med Super
to override the patient's wishes.

Okay, you're really
going to do this?

SEAN: Yeah, I really am.

Okay. Get her ready for Theatre.
DAN: Okay.

Come on, Cate.

MIKE: And clamp the pedicle
just there.

Jack. Get on with it.

Got it.

It hasn't arrested the haemorrhaging.
Retract a little further.

Suction.

BP's down to 70 systolic.
Heart rate's 139.

We're running out of time.

There's more damage here
than we saw on the scan earlier.

There's a large haematoma
that's haemorrhaged.

Why did we wait so long to operate?

Make it a little more exciting.

Give me four units of packed cells
and two units of platelets.

How much blood has she had?
This is her fifth unit now.

Keep me up to speed.

Damage too extensive to repair?

Yep.

Multiple contusions,
unknown haemorrhage sites, bugger it.

So, we've got no choice?

We need to do a total splenectomy
or she bleeds to death.

Unless you can think of something
else in under 30 seconds, yeah.

Sorry, Lisa.

Okay, look.
Let's retrace our steps.

If he'd seen what happened
to his mum,

it would've scared
the living daylights out of him,

so he could have taken off anywhere.

I've got blokes covering the streets
five blocks away.

If anyone did see him
and they haven't reported him...

Lorraine.

Oh, no. Please, no.

He's not breathing.
Come on, let's get him out.

We'd have saved her spleen
if we got her up here sooner.

Pretty sure that'll be
the last thing on her mind

once she sees her little boy.

You old romantic.

You can talk, hero.
Taking on that guy in Rescus.

Nothing heroic about that.
Just a calculated gamble.

We had the initiative.
Poor sod had his back to the wall.

Yeah. It's pretty bloody desperate.

You know, he told me, um,
if he didn't get the drugs back,

he was going to be dead anyway.

He made a choice, Jack.

No-one can be responsible
for the consequences but him.

You know, working with you and Frank

has felt like being stuck
between a rock and a hard place,

but I think after today
I've realised

it's more like being stuck
between and rock and a rock.

You guys are more similar
than you think.

I think I've just been insulted.

No, no, no. I just meant...

Okay. I'll tell you what Frank
would tell you if he was here.

The guy died of an
intracerebral bleed - end of story.

I'm getting a drink.
What about you?

Yeah. Sure.

Oh, there's just something
I've gotta do first.

Cate.

How's Lisa?

Splenectomy, which would have been
unnecessary if we operated sooner,

but we couldn't operate sooner
because you were interfering.

I wasn't interfering.

I was simply defending
her right to choose.

I don't have a problem
with you having an opinion,

but there's a time and a place
to voice it.

Cate, when a patient
isn't thinking clearly,

it's up to us
to make the right decision for them.

They found her son.

He's dead. He had an asthma attack.

The police are going
to break the news to her.

I thought I should be there.

Incident report.

Thank you.

Security in this place -

it's been a problem
long before you took the chair.

It'll be a problem
long after you're out of it.

And it ain't your problem anymore.

Are they firing me?

The new NUM starts next week.

Don't you read any memos?

New NUM?

Yes, of next week.

(sighs) Thank God,

because I don't think I could have
handled another week of this...

..with Frank.

Although as much as
I hate to admit it,

I actually missed him today.

You won't hear it from me.

We corrected
the ventricular septal defect

and her cardiac output has improved,

so the prognosis
is looking pretty good.

I've always wanted to work
in developing countries.

How do I go about it?

Finishing your internship
would be a start.

So what's needed most over there -
paediatricians, do you reckon?

Should I specialise in that?
They need everything.

If you want to go into specialties,
do something you're passionate about.

What about diseases?

I know AIDS is the biggest
problem, but...

Bart, I need you
to review my patient.

Yeah, sure.

Any chance we could catch up later?
I'm off in 20 minutes.

Sorry, mate, other plans...

..but nice talking to you, Bart.

Yeah, you too.

Nice guy.

You should hear
some of the amazing stuff he does.

Do you know
he's Charlotte's boyfriend?

Shut up, Bart.

So, will Dr Campion
be back tomorrow?

♪ Hey, there's not a cloud in sight

♪ It's as blue as your blue goodbye

♪ And I thought that it would rain

APPLAUSE

Thank you.

Really, can there be a better place
to be on a day like this?

It's just too beautiful.
APPLAUSE

This next song is dedicated
to those poor fools

who never seem able
to get their act together.

Thank you.

Kathleen asleep?

Yeah, yeah.

I tell you, I haven't seen her
enjoy herself so much for ages.

Couldn't have brought her here
a year ago.

Strange people, unfamiliar place.

One thing you can say about Alison -

she certainly helped her
make a lot of adjustments.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She has.

Have you thought any more
about letting her take her overseas?

Hardly thought about anything else.

Except, um...

Well, um...

Well, I've been doing
some thinking too.

About what you asked me
before I came up here.

About where we were at,
what we were doing.

Oh, right, and what did you decide?

I decided I'm not
a teenager anymore, Frank.

You may not have noticed,
but neither am I.

Here's the thing...

..you're opinionated and arrogant,

and you ignore me sometimes,
which is completely unacceptable.

You work too hard.

And every now and again,

I realise you've forgotten
how to have fun.

But I wouldn't be here now
if I didn't care.

Just don't ask me to define it,
because I can't...

..not yet.

Well, then maybe
we should just... have fun.

Jeez.
Oh, God.

Oh, well.
