All language subtitles for Dr. Kildare S01E01 Twenty-Four Hours

Okay, thank you

How'd you sleep? When?

Sleep? Who sleeps?

I don't even know what day it is. It's
the middle of the night.

Hi, Jim. Howdy.

Well, hello.

Hello, Dr. Kildare.

I'm going to have my appendicitis out.

This is the big morning, huh?

You two know each other?

No, I wasn't peaked until yesterday.

We're going to be married.

As soon as I grow up.

No kidding.

Congratulations, buddy.

Why isn't your name on the blackboard
anymore?

Well, it's on a different blackboard in
a different ward.

When you're a rotating intern, you work
every ward in the hospital.

You mean you go round and round?

That's a straight dope, sugar.

Round and round and round.

Heard from the residency board yet?

No.

Maybe I should have applied somewhere
else.

You mean to stand here and tell me that
this is the only place you applied for

residency?

It's the only place I want.

Gillespie's here.

You starting on E today?

Right now.

See that those have a patient cut back
to bed on, Dr. Kildare. Yes, doctor.

There are sick people on this ward.

Isn't that too bad? Keep your voice
down.

Suppose I want to make all kinds of
noise.

I'll tell you your situation, Mrs.

Dressard. Can't you tell me my
situation? A prowl car team found you

the sidewalk sometime last night. They
didn't know whether you were drunk or

hurt or both. I wasn't drunk because I
don't drink. You were drunk.

They brought you here about 4 .30. You
were admitted through emergency.

Neurosurgery found nothing wrong with
you. We may find nothing wrong with you,

but you are entitled to further tests.

If you don't want them, you can leave
AMA.

What's AMA?

Against medical advice.

But however you do leave, it'll be done
quietly.

Who are you in that fancy white suit?
I'll tell you what we do with people

you around here, Mrs. Dressard. We put
them in restraint, so we call the police

and have them removed to the hospital at
City Jail.

Now put that gown on and behave
yourself.

Congratulations,

Dr. Lovefield.

You know that in the last 36 hours, I've
delivered six babies, including

one beautiful set of beautiful twins.

You baby catchers are all alike.

Starry -eyed and screwy. Do it.

I want a bottle of beer.

6 o 'clock in the morning? I want to
celebrate.

I've got to celebrate.

How long have you been on?

36 hours.

Well, you go to bed and get some sleep.

really tell you why you congratulated
me.

Six babies. One set of beautiful twins.
No, no, no. I got it.

Here, read.

I got my residency.

Well, a lady intern had certain natural
disadvantages with certain natural

advantages, and I must have wowed him.
You must have, Emmy.

Congratulations.

It's a thing.

Come next June when there's...

Weary world of internship is a memory.
I,

Emmy Lawfield, M .D., a licensed
physician, will toddle off to the good

factory they have at good old McCain's
in good old New York and settle down as

resident obstetrician.

Wow.

Wow.

Do I get some beer or donuts?

You get some sleep. I'll see you this
afternoon, then you get some beer.

Max? Max. Three o 'clock.

Good night.

Oh, Jim, congratulate me again.

Congratulations. The dog?

I mean, you are the dog.

I'm Montag, resident in charge. Welcome
to Ward E.

What's all this?

I just finished it a minute ago. How
long have you been around, Blair?

Eleven weeks.

I don't know how it goes elsewhere, but
I like the scut work done fast in my

ward.

Where were you before?

Pediatrics. Before that?

GYN. After this?

Neurosurgery. What's your name?

Kildare. Okay, okay, okay, okay,
Kildare.

We'll get along fine, Kildare, if you
remember that I'm the resident and

the intern, right?

There's always someone to remind me,
Doctor.

Frisky, huh?

Well, look, as long as you're in this
racket, in this hospital, in this ward,

it's my job to teach you a little about
medicine as well as the fact that you're

not God's gift to the medical
profession.

Good morning, gorgeous.

Well, here it is.

All duly labeled and marked by our very
own Dr.

Kildare. Hello. How do you do, Doctor?

You took long enough. She's been nagging
me for ten minutes.

Mrs. Fane.

Nice kid, but she likes things done
fast, too.

You like things done fast. She likes
things done fast. The ward clerk likes

things done fast.

I'll remember that.

Punch your face, Mrs. Tressard.

What happened to that?

Lab protesting.

You wanted to go home.

Yeah, I'm gonna go home.

I can't wait to go home.

Hold it like that.

They didn't finish filling this out
downstairs.

It's Julia Dressard, D -R -E -S -S -A -R
-D?

That's right.

1224 Annapole?

Yes. Rent or own? Rent.

Telephone? K -L -O -8 -6 -1 -4.

Remember your social security number?
527 -245 -282.

Birthday? 2 -21 -31.

Phenographer. Fable.

Health insurance?

Yeah. Married? Single?

Divorced. Notify?

Notify nobody.

Fable and company.

No. You notify...

Harold Robert Dressart.

Relationship?

He's my little boy.

Address?

St. Paul, the Apostle School, 16th and
Main.

Bank?

Union?

Religion?

Military service?

Yeah, sure.

I was a general.

Previous admission?

Yeah.

When? Why don't you look it up? What do
they pay you for?

You're an intern, aren't you? Yeah.

Yeah, I'm an intern.

Well, you all look like barbers.

Hey, just for the record, next time I
don't want any lousy interns sticking

you hear?

I want a doctor.

Where are you going?

Well, with any luck, I thought I might
try for a cup of coffee.

Come on.

Come on, come on.

from admitting, you might see that
they're still alive. I want them all

in safe and comfy. Get cutting, Doctor!

You kidding?

Oh, yes, Doctor. I'll think of it.

Say, I suggest you familiarize yourself
with the rest of the patients in the

ward today before teaching them.

I don't know where I'm scheduled for
today.

Eleven o 'clock.

Look, whatever it is you've got on your
mind besides medicine, I suggest you get

rid of it while Dr.

Gillespie's here.

Dr. Gillespie's conducting rounds?

Big Daddy himself.

All right, I'll present today. Your
first day on the ward.

I'd like to present for Dr. Gillespie.

You've got to be plain stupid or plain
smart.

Kildare, huh?

Say, you're up for residency in medicine
under Dr. Gillespie, aren't you? Under

Gillespie.

That explains why he's sweating on your
buckle.

He's a baby who can make you or break
you.

Okay, wise guy.

Okay, what?

Well, you present on rounds today.

We'll see if you know as much medicine
as you do making smart dialogue.

You're going to review all these before
teaching, Ron? I'm going to try.

Has Dr. Gillespie made personal rounds
on any of these?

Some. Which ones? I'll go over those
first.

Are you trying to impress him?

I'm trying to get my residency, Mrs.
Fane.

You're the doctor.

Well,

I'd be there by three.

I wouldn't be late.

I've always been a tightrope.

Lots of luck.

off the ward. I'm getting ready to get
out of here right after lunch, Mr.

Intern.

Resident in charge will have to sign
this.

Dr. Munter.

Well, he isn't here.

The charge nurse says that you can sign
it. You get the doctor to take care of

it.

Let me see that.

I'm Dr.

Gillespie. Oh.

Well, you look like a doctor.

Thank you.

What can I do for you?

Let's get something done around here.

Who's presenting?

Dr. Kildare.

What do you have on your ward, Doctor?

I thought we might save time, Dr.
Gillespie, if we can find ourselves to

interesting cases.

The interesting cases?

Yes, Doctor. There might be something
interesting about all of them.

Let's proceed.

Paying good money to be here, and I want
good care.

Any obstructions?

ENT, no obstructions. Normal
fluoroscopy. Bronchogram negative.

I lost 50 pounds.

Is that so, Mr. Bogus? Yeah.

Mr. Bogus was admitted here six months
ago for pneumonia.

He lost 13 pounds at that time, but
gained it back before he was discharged.

He was readmitted at his normal weight
two weeks ago.

Well, that ain't true. Shut up, Mr.
Bogus.

Interesting case. Very interesting.

You said it was one of the interesting
ones, didn't you?

All right, what's the story on Mr. Bogus
once again?

He's a 41 -year -old married Caucasian
with four children who entered

complaining of back pains. No
cardiopulmonary disease, no renal

history of trauma or orthopedic
diseases.

Rule out. Okay, okay. What else? Lab
tests?

All normal.

No clinical explanation for his
complaint, Dr. Gillespie.

I'd discharge him.

I think he's taking a vacation on his
health insurance.

I agree.

Discharge him. Yes, sir.

Now, there's an interesting patient in
the next room, Dr. Gillespie. Let's see

one of the other cards, shall we?

Good morning. My name's Gillespie.

Good morning.

My name is George Meade.

I see you brought your gang.

Yes, Mr. Meade, the whole caboodle.

Is this the case you spoke of? Yes,
doctor.

Dr. Montag has acquainted me with Mr.
Mead's problem.

It's the food, doc.

What's the matter with it? It's like I
can't hold it down.

What diet's he on? Soft, doctor.

It's got to be something solid, you
know.

Kind of hold itself down there once I
get her in.

We'll give you something solid, Mr.
Mead. Don't make the treatment worse

the disease.

Maybe a corned beef sandwich and a
bottle of beer.

Corned beef?

Yes. Bottle of beer?

I'll buy you one personally the moment
you're on your feet and out of here.

That all right?

Crazy.

Crazy.

What are your thoughts on this case, Dr.
Gilder?

Well, with the chest pains and the
history of TBC, as well as hypertension,

considered coronary insufficiency.

reactivation of the TBC, or even
possibly constrictive pericarditis. Yes,

possibly constrictive pericarditis.

What have you decided to do, Dr.
Kildare?

A chest x -ray has been ordered. And?

And I was considering a skin test, a
master two -step, and a fluoroscopy.

while you're considering, this patient
has pains in his chest, severe enough to

bring him into this hospital for
examination, severe enough to stop him

working, severe enough for him to leave
his wife and business and come here for

help. He needs help fast. A positive
diagnosis is practically impossible.

Until you familiarize yourself with his
history and his lab tests. Did you get a

BUM? Did you get a CO2?

Did you get a potassium, a cholesterol?

Well, did you really consider your
diagnosis, Dr. Kildare? Well, I...

gentlemen, we are at close grips with
the fact that medical training is not

always medical education.

Now go and get yourself some lunch.

The next time you work up all the cases
and I'll determine which are the

interesting ones. Hey, Mr. Intern.

Let's hope we never meet again, huh?

Toodle -oo.

I think you'd better be at my office at
four o 'clock sharp, Dr. Kildare.

The only thing Dr.

Gillespie appreciates is good medicine.

You let me present today.

How'd you like to wait for the next
elevator?

How'd you like a broken arm?

That theory's a small emboli, but the
anticoagulant didn't work.

She threw a big one and that was it.

They're doing a CPC on it Monday
afternoon. Can you make it?

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Jerry?

He'll be there. He'll be there. I'll
have to carry him.

That sort of eagerness is commendable.

Hi, Jim. How was the teaching?

I can't.

Can't eat it.

They really hate interns, don't they?

Interns hate interns.

Their own mothers hate them.

Nurses hate them.

Patients, attendants, orderlies.

Residents?

Residents, too.

Well, you can do the same thing when
you're a resident, Kildare.

Think about all that lovely dough you'd
be getting.

We'd get about 50 bucks more a month if
they hate interns.

Bet you'd be willing to do it for
nothing.

That's bent on the intern, Kildare.

Hey, here, he's bad news.

Hey, wait a minute.

Montag's chief resident on a war day,
isn't he?

Seven hours, I look forward to this.

You're on what, E?

You don't know you're a resident, man.

Make it rough on you. You're responsible
to him.

Yeah, they're all touchy.

So am I.

So is everybody.

After eight years of medical school, you
draw blood, do work -ups, change

dressings, suture, remove splitters,
treat runny noses, anything the resident

can dream up.

Then they have the nerve to call it the
progressive delegation of

responsibility. Yeah, man.

Lost your appetite, huh? Oh, very funny.

The law stipulates the doctor may not be
licensed to practice until he's

completed one year of supervised medical
training. Salt and pepper, please.

That period of internship exposes the
doctor to medical and surgical problems

and their management.

Ketchup? No.

What happens if you wake up one morning
at 5 o 'clock and you find out you hate

medicine? You go back to sleep.

It's the privilege of learning that
really counts, right?

You'll have to admit, we do learn to
become efficient sleepers.

Danny here can get eight hours sleep in
four, can't you, Danny?

Yeah. Yeah, that's right.

Well, I gotta go.

Where?

Deliver some babies.

Imagine what it was for our mothers.

Danny, you gonna leave that pie?

Is that what it is?

I gotta be on GYN right now. Come on,
Danny boy. Open those eyes, kid. That's

it. All right. Now, while I eat all of
this lovely food, you jokers can tell me

a few bawdy stories about...

coronary. We're not paid to run.

We're not paid. We're not anything.

We won't be anything unless we study
under the best position in our chosen

specialty by getting a residency under
him, right?

Right.

You'll get the word. Relax.

I got the word.

Not officially, but I got the word.

You can hear other than officially,
doctor, let me assure you.

I blew it today, Dave.

Four plus.

I took a chance with Gillespie and I
blew my residency right out the window.

You need therapy.

What would you prescribe, doctor?

Women and liquor, in that order.

with it, Doctor?

He's a rich man with a poor stomach,
Miss Payne.

Name, no name yet.

Hey, how's she going, kiddo?

Take him to radiology, Miss Payne. We'll
want to check his carburetor later.

Carburetor? Carburetor, Miss Payne, his
stomach.

Oh.

After that, take him to his room and put
him to bed.

Green. A very green nurse is Miss Payne.

All this is why I didn't eat my lunch
today.

Hey, is today Saturday?

Saturday afternoon, to be exact.

Well, that explains all the action. It's
the day of the paycheck. John

Barleycorn and the broken schnozzolas.

You want to get some coffee?

No. Will you take my calls on E till I
get back?

Oh, sure. If you're back by four, I can.

I have to be back by four.

Beer?

No, just coffee. I'm still on duty.

Go ahead.

Thanks.

You ever make it home?

I'll make it, Mr. Intern. Don't worry
about me.

I've just got a couple of stops on the
way.

This is the first one, huh?

No, this is the closest one.

That stuff's not going to do you any
good.

Well, I'll tell you something, fancy
pants. It's going to do me a lot more

than you ever did me. Now, what do you
think of that?

None of my business now, but you need a
lot of rest.

And you don't need that.

Let me have one more of the same.

Look, you're right. It's none of your
business. So why don't you just go away

and leave me alone?

Just go away, Mr. Intern, because I've
got a lot of problems.

What's all this? I'm catching a plane in
20 minutes.

Where are you going? Well, I'm going
home. I just got 72 hours off, and I'm

going to fly home and sleep.

That's your cab? Yeah.

No beer?

Well, no time.

Well, you don't look very disappointed.
I am. I was hoping we could celebrate

your appointment tonight.

Oh, you forgot that.

Well,

we'll wait until you get one of these
things, and then we'll celebrate

all right?

Sure.

Bye.

be the first one.

I figured she was a patient or
something. She's still got a tape on her

Doc, you better have a look at her.

She's okay.

Should I call a cab and send her home?

Yeah.

Yeah, I gotta get back to the hospital.

What time is it?

Three o 'clock.

I gotta get there. I can't be late.

I gotta pick him up at school.

He's waiting for me.

He's waiting. He's waiting for his
mommy.

My little boy's at school.

He shouldn't see me like...

Please, help me.

Get her some coffee, Mac.

I gotta get there. Call a cab.

She looks like a lot of trouble to me.

Yeah, we'll call it, Mac.

They're not going to let you take a
child from here, not like that.

You... All right.

All right, then maybe you better go in
and get him.

Look, just let it be your one good deed
for the day, will you?

Wait here.

What's your name?

Kildare, you work for some hospital I
take you, huh?

Who are you?

Ben Broussard.

What hospital are you with?

I'm going to report you.

Report me for what?

You didn't think you'd get away with it,
did you?

Get away with what?

Child... child stealing.

Well, go on.

I still don't know what you're talking
about. You came to pick up my son, isn't

that correct? If your name is really
Broussard and he really is your son... I

assure you my name is Broussard.

I suppose the ex -Mrs. Broussard sent
you.

Yeah. Well, the court took her
visitation rights away two weeks ago.

That's why Sister Providentia called me.

She knows she has no right to touch that
boy, to see him, and to come anywhere

near him. You're in real trouble, kid.
Now, just a minute.

Look, I don't know anything about this.

I do know she'd been drinking.

She asked me to help her pick up the
child.

But I'm certain of one thing. I'm fed up
with the whole Broussard family.

When you see Julie, you tell her for me,
then tell her yourself. She's right

outside.

Get out of here Hey!

You're a doctor, huh?

That's right Well, I won't ask you where
But you're obviously a very young and a

very foolish man

I'm Dr. Kildare. I called the warden,
spoke to your standby.

You're late, doctor.

Has he been asking for me?

Since four o 'clock.

Dr. Kildare is here, Dr. Gillespie.

Yes.

You can go in now.

Don't let anybody swipe.

After you came to this hospital, you
applied for a residency in internal

medicine.

Three weeks ago, you appeared before the
board to outline the intentions you

have for your career.

We were impressed, Dr. Kildare.

Very impressed.

Thank you, Dr. Gillespie. But today, you
couldn't have diagnosed a hangnail or

treated a nosebleed. You've been no good
to your patients, to your colleagues,

to this hospital, or to yourself.

Dr. Gillespie, I did everything I could
for Mrs. Dressard. Mrs. Dressard was a

patient here, not an inmate.

Firmness with a patient is one thing. A
deliberately unsympathetic attitude is

quite another.

I didn't feel she rated too much
sympathy from me or anyone else.

Why not?

Mrs. Dressard has been admitted here
three times this year.

Mainly for malnutrition, mainly due to
chronic alcoholism.

And you just might have helped her not
get admitted a fourth time for

malnutrition, mainly due to chronic
alcoholism. What did you do, doctor?

I tried to help her and I was taken.

I found out she's a liar and a cheat
besides being a drunk.

The moral evaluation of a patient is not
your concern.

So you were taken, eh?

Let me tell you, in your career, you're
going to be taken many times.

You know, there's nothing special about
a doctor, but the attitude towards him

is always special.

You got M .D. after your name. No matter
how a patient may say, doctor, or snarl

it or scream it, he's asking you for
help and comfort and assurance.

And by your oath, that's just what
you've got to give him, whether he's

or not. What more could I have done?

Did you consult with Dr.

Solomon? Dr. Solomon? Dr.

Solomon. Dr.

Solomon. No, sir. Why not?

He's in surgery.

Yes. And when Dr.

Solomon joined the attending staff here
three weeks ago, he made it quite plain

that he'd done extensive research in the
field of alcoholism. Extensive research

with excellent results.

Dr. Solomon is an ex -alcoholic.

I've made all the mistakes I want to for
one day, if you'll excuse me.

What's the matter with you?

Nothing that a few hours away from this
place won't cure.

Very human stuff, Doctor.

Ordinarily it would work.

But a doctor doesn't escape from his
professional obligations. He escapes

them. That's the only place you'll find
satisfaction and accomplishment, Doctor.

I wouldn't be too confident of that cure
for what ails you if I were you, which

I am not, thank God.

Is that all, Dr. Gillespie? No.

Don't get the idea that you're a doctor
just because someone starts calling you

doctor two minutes after you've got that
diploma in your hands and because you

can write an Rx.

You go to school.

You take training. You work here in the
hospital. But you become a doctor with

the help of your patient.

Maybe just you and the patient know it.
Maybe just you. But when it happens,

you'll have been the main medicant for
that patient. His brightest hope.

and very possibly the difference between
his living and dying.

That's when, and that's why you're a
doctor, Kildare, and that's what

is all about.

Oh, Dr. Kildare.

Did you say doctor?

Very plainly.

Thank you very much.

You forgot your coat.

And you'd be... Miss Day?

Mm -hmm. Miss what day?

Susan.

Well, I'll tell you something very
confidential, Susan.

I get off duty about six o 'clock.

What would you be doing around seven?

I can't say specifically, but I'm busy
tonight. If you have something like that

in mind, I'm sorry.

You're sorry.

You couldn't be as sorry as I am. You
couldn't possibly.

Oh, it's just a small affair. No doctor.

Non -medical, non -surgical affair.

The outside world. The outside world.

People with normal hours and normal
appetites.

Well, I guess my health insurance
wouldn't cover it anyway.

It might.

Why, Susan, are you by any wild chance
inviting me to this?

Non -medical, non -surgical party for
normal people with normal appetites?

Any time after eight.

I'll be there.

You are the only nice thing that has
happened to me in a long, bad day.

Dr. Kildare.

Hey, I'm not on duty tonight.

What

happened?

Dr. Meade has had to go to emergency.

They're swamped tonight.

What about the resident? He's on his
way.

Two more minutes and I'd have been on my
way to a non -medical, non -surgical

party. Well, you're in, doctor.

Better luck next time.

We have a new admission.

Emergency to send up a 31 -year -old
white female.

Attempted suicide.

Overdose of barbiturates.

Residence here downstairs?

Yes. He says she's ready for lavage.

Get the cellar.

You bring her in?

That's right, doctor.

The landlady found her on the floor in
her apartment.

Is she going to make it?

Most of these barb cases do.

All right, Doctor.

And make sure that blood sample goes
full out with it.

And keep an eye on her. She may have to
do a tracheotomy later.

Chief Frederick is sending someone up.
Says you can go now.

Everything cleared up.

I want to die.

She tried it again.

Suit yourself.

case here and I want... Well, when he
gets back, please have him

contact me on Ward E.

Dr. Kildare.

Now hold the restraints.

Julia?

Julia?

Whatever we had to say to each other
before, it doesn't matter now.

I've seen enough and I've heard enough
to understand something of what you're

going through.

Now, you'll go to sleep in a little
while, and you'll sleep until tomorrow.

But until you do, could we... Why don't
you just go away and leave me alone?

I've got plenty of time.

On your admission slip, it says you're
from Coeur d 'Alene.

My father used to go fishing there every
year.

He'd come back with stories about the
size of the fish in Lake...

What is it?

Like Mary.

Mary, yes.

Well, I couldn't tell my dad that. I
thought he was a liar. But tell me, are

they really that?

When I was a little girl, we used to go
down there with tinfoil.

That's a long ways away. It was a long
time ago.

I forget.

Maybe you'll remember later.

I was downstairs when the call came for
Solomon.

You have the privilege of handing over
this case to the resident, if you wish.

It's my case.

Let me know if I can be of any help.

Don't you see your father again?

Next month, I guess.

He didn't lie to you.

Would you tell me about it?

Sure.

Doctor.

You don't need me anymore.

You're doing fine.

I really didn't think he was lying.

When I was a little girl, I used to go
there all the time.

And my mother was always so worried
because she thought I was playbooking.

Well, now it's a long time ago.

But it's a beautiful lake, Lake Mary.

Get some sleep sometime.

I've had a big day.

Worked four hours on that brief. When
they see those contracts Monday...

There

you

are. You're late.

Industrial hazard.

Know anyone?

Not a soul.

They're all very rich and very
successful.

Hey, look, I'm helping, too.

Well, why don't you get rid of this and
follow me to the treatment room?

What a day.

Played 36 holes.

Got three birdies.

Pardon us.

You know that new property?

This guy walked in my office this
afternoon and bought it just like that.

A hundred thousand dollars.

Excuse us, please.

It's okay.

Well, will this do?

That'll do fine.

You look very pleased with yourself
tonight. At least more pleasing when I

you last time.

Does it have something to do with your
being late?

Mm -hmm.

Exactly why are you late, Doctor?

That?

What?

Doctor.

Pardon?

I want you to meet some of my friends.
