Martino. Martino!

Come here.

-Where were you?
-I had a fever for three days.

You're right. Not here.

I'll see you in our storeroom at 5.

At attention, cadets!

At ease, cadets! At attention, cadets!

At...

-Martino? Martino!
-Martino?

Fanti's test is this afternoon
and I haven't heard anything.

You will.

-Trust me.
-Fine. We'll talk later.

-Did anyone call while I was out?
-No.

Ambrosiano Hospital,
Health Director's office.

Good morning, ma'am.
Actually, your husband just walked away.

Costanza, are you okay?

I can't work with Caruso anymore.

What happened?

Costanza?

What happened?

Some time ago, Caruso stayed home
a few days for family reasons.

He said he also had some work to do,
so he took home the hospital's computer.

But I didn't think of the consequences.

What consequences?

Well, I was talking to his wife,
and she reminded me that this happened...

right before the blackout.

What if his computer got a virus?

It can't be a coincidence.

There's a reason why you can't take
computers outside of the hospital.

It could've been what caused the blackout.

If my husband
risked his life because of him...

-Have you tried talking to him?
-No, I don't trust him.

He would probably blame me for it.
Look how he's being with Dr. Fanti.

Sorry.

I have to go, now. But let's do this.

I'll look into it.
As soon as I'll be Health Director again.

-Hopefully, it'll be soon.
-But don't stress over it too much.

Your husband, luckily, is fine.
And today...

Andrea will be department chief again.
Despite Caruso.

The nurse at the base reported fatigue
and intermittent fevers in the last weeks.

Have you had other symptoms?

-More fainting?
-No.

How come you chose to go
to a military academy?

-What does that have to do with anything?
-Nothing with the fatigue.

I'm just curious. I could never do that.

I hate obeying orders.

But you have to.
At least, till the afternoon, so be quiet.

Diseases gross me out,
but I'm used to discipline.

Good. You guys have something in common.
You be quite, too.

What is that?

Skin lesions or plaques.

They appear to be symptoms
related to the fatigue and fever.

-How long have you had them?
-I don't know, a few days.

-Why didn't you say anything?
-Because they're disgusting.

Martino, don't be embarrassed.
It's not your fault.

Yeah, and you don't have to look at them.

But let us take a look.
That's why we do this disgusting work.

Excuse me.

Are you taking any meds?

-No.
-Have you been abroad in the past year?

No.

-Unprotected sexual relations?
-No. Nor protected.

We have to figure out what kind
of vasculitis this is. Carolina?

Should we do a skin biopsy?

-First the immunoscreening?
-It's not an immunologic disorder, though.

It's an infection,
and I think I know how he got it.

And you also want to tell us?

First, I have to ask him.
But after the parents leave.

Try to hurry, because as chief,
you won't have time for these games.

I'll set up the screening.

Did she mean that in a positive way
or a negative way?

You want to know if she's happy
that you'll be chief again?

Well... Gabriel and I
avoided you like the plague, before.

But, I imagine
that it was the opposite for her, so no...

No, I don't think she's happy about it,
since nothing will be the same again.

Okay. Remind me
to never ask your opinion again.

Doc, but Gabriel and I will be thrilled.

I mean, I will.

-How's it going?
-Well. You?

Pretty good, I guess.

-Besides the heat.
-You called me to talk about the weather?

I talked to Massimo.

I wanted to thank him for saving my life,
and he told me everything.

-So you called me to rub it in.
-What? No.

No, absolutely not. I want to apologize.

Now, I understand
why you didn't want to leave with me.

I wouldn't trust anyone either anymore.

But... You should forgive him.

He didn't want to lose you.

He didn't want to hurt you,
and the exact opposite happened.

But if he behaved that way,
is because he cares about you.

I have to go now.
I have to take care of a case.

Yes, I'm sorry. Oh, Elisa.

-Wish Doc good luck for me.
-Of course.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Looks like an infection.
Due to the hip replacement surgery.

It's probably osteomyelitis.

-But we'll have to confirm with a CT scan.
-Osteomyelitis?

Osteomyelitis, yes.

-Doesn't sound good.
-It's a bone infection.

Now, it sounds even worse.

Doctor, I had the surgery so I could
walk right again. I couldn't work anymore.

-And what did you do for work?
-I'm a gardener. Door-to-door.

I take care of client's terraces
and their gardens.

Well, don't worry, because an infection,
when caught early, is curable.

-You'll go back to work.
-Thank you.

Then you can think about resting.

There's nothing wrong with retiring.

And if you really can't sit still,
you can help me at the bookstore.

You really want to see me dead, huh?
I don't need to rest, I need my work.

I'll leave this,
for when you're done with your show.

He's terrible, this guy.

Bye, Dad.

See you soon.

Thank you for everything.

-Goodbye.
-Bye.

-Well? What is it?
-Nothing.

You remind me of my dad.

Dr. Cesconi, excuse me,
is your dad also a big grouch

who pretends to mistreat his son like...

like Gerardo?
That's how he treats his son.

He's a good son.

Shut up or I'll take back
the book I lent you.

-I'm already done.
-I won't give you any more.

Okay, so, it's complaining time.

I'm out of here.

Are you going dressed like this?

It's a test.
How should I go dressed, in a tux?

It's not a test!

It's the most important day
of your second life. It has to be honored.

-I wore a red tie.
-Isn't that for New Year's Eve?

I told him.

You guys don't know anything. Red means
new energy, the present, like today,

the day you prove that you can have
a second life and do it right.

Seems more like the day
the commission will ask me

the hardest questions
in the history of Internal Medicine.

Exactly. And everyone will know
who the chief is in the room.

Anyway...

I will never call you "Professor,"
just so you know.

-When I was chief, what did you call me?
-"Prof," and I was informal.

Well, I like "Doc" better. Or Prof Doc...

Nah.

Sorry, I have to go.

Put on a gown, at least. Come on.

No "Professor" for me?

Put something red on tonight too,
and I'll call you whatever you want.

Listen, earlier when they asked about
being sexually active, you lied, right?

Says who?

I do. But I have to be sure, in order
to figure out what's wrong with you.

Listen,
we don't have to tell your parents.

-Maybe you're ashamed--
-I'm not.

I have a fling with a colleague,
but you don't know my parents.

-Fixated on discipline?
-My dad is an evangelical pastor.

Sex before marriage doesn't exist for him.

If he knew, he'd force me to get married.
Can you imagine her face?

She'd tease me for the rest of my life.

So, it's not too serious.

You think we're going to the academy
to get married at 20?

I don't know. Why are you there?

I'm there to get away
from my parents, I think.

My dad thinks
I observe the religious precepts,

and I let him, so he's not disappointed.

But I live my own life.
I haven't told anyone what he does.

People look at you weird when
you're the son of some kind of priest.

And now it's going to be even worse.

They'll treat me as if I have the plague,
if they find out I'm sick.

-Andrea, I've been looking for you.
-If it's for the immunoscreening results,

I already know. It won't show anything.

It's more likely
a sexually transmitted disease.

I'd start with a serological test
for syphilis.

The lesions are copper-colored.

-What? Syphilis?
-We have to start somewhere.

If I were you, I'd start with your test.
That's why I came looking for you.

Oh, my test, right.

Don't say a word. I didn't have time.

After all, I attended the most important
event of my life wearing jeans.

You know what? You're right.

Knock them out with who you are.

Good luck, my friend. Go get them.

-Dr. Fanti?
-Yes.

We need to suspend the test.

There's a notice of investigation for you.

I'm sorry, for what?

FANTI ANDREA
UNDER INVESTIGATION

LAZZARINI LORENZO
after the patient's death

Come with me to the Health Director.

What's happening?

-Someone give us an explanation!
-I can.

Dr. Tedeschi found some anomalies
in Lazzarini's chart.

Turns out that Lazzarini's oxygen tank
was given to the patient next to him

therefore causing his death.

And the worst part is

that the person who made the mistake
tried to hide it by falsifying the chart.

It says that Lazzarini died while he was
on oxygen support, but this is impossible,

because the tank
that he was attached to was brand new.

Lazzarini must've received it
when he was already dead.

Is this your writing?

Will you be able to explain
why you falsified the chart?

I suggest to hire a lawyer of your choice.

I'll represent the hospital, who will join
the proceedings as a civil party,

since damaged by your illicit behavior.

And, Fanti...

the committee will meet to discuss
your preventive suspension.

While we wait for the investigation.

Dr. Tedeschi told us everything.

-Mom's right, we have to tell the truth.
-We already talked about it.

It's not your fault.

I falsified the chart,
it's my responsibility.

-You did it to defend me--
-You think that's a valid reason?

Listen, I'll be charged regardless,
as I should be.

But you have the right to become
the doctor you want to be.

To keep going, okay?

Dad, wait.

The things Cecilia said are true.
The charges against me are real.

I had to give Lorenzo's tank to a patient
who needed it more than him.

It was the right thing to do.

And Lorenzo agreed.
He actually begged me to do it.

The problem is that later
he would've needed it again.

But there was no oxygen left.
There was no time.

And, unfortunately,
I wasn't with him anymore.

Why didn't you say anything sooner?

Because they would've
banned me from practicing.

I know that any doctor
would've done the same thing,

but I'm a doctor with limitations.

And I was scared of losing everything.

I was scared of losing you guys.

Which is now
going to happen anyway, so....

I only bought myself some time...

cowardly.

So, the only thing I can do now...

is ask for your forgiveness.

Giulia.

-Giulia.
-Don't touch me!

Good thing I was the one who
only cared about his personal interest.

-Be there for her.
-Don't tell me what to do.

Help! Help! Martino is sick, please!

He didn't let me speak.
He decided everything.

Now everyone hates him because of me.

Wait, wait.

This is important: It's not your fault.

He complicated everything to this extent

and he has to take responsibility for it.

That's what I would've done.

Listen, your shift is almost over.
You need to rest, go home.

We'll take care of things, here.

-It was me. It was me.
-Martino, calm down.

-What's happening?
-Fever delirium.

I can't do it. I decided...
I decided to sleep with her.

-We need an antipyretic, right away.
-Yes. Okay.

-Here you go.
-Thanks.

He didn't want you to know.

He was scared that your husband
would force him to get married.

It's what happened to us.

That's why my husband insists
on prohibiting sex before marriage.

He doesn't want Martino
to make our same mistakes.

My husband and I had just met
when I got pregnant.

We had to get married, find a job.

We were doing volunteer work in Brazil,
and we had to stop everything.

Volunteering, dreams, freedom.

Martino doesn't know
he was conceived before marriage.

Nobody knows.

Who's going to tell my husband now
that Martino lied to him?

He won't be able to accept it.

It's never easy
to accept a truth we don't like

from the people we love the most.

But then you do, because you love them.

Anyway, now Martino is doing well.

The fever is down.

We're waiting for the results
to see if it really is syphilis.

If anything comes up, talk to me.

Dr. Giordano had to leave and
I don't think Doc will be here for long.

Tell me why, huh?

First you want to work with me, and then?

Then I find that you caused the death
of a colleague and tried to hide it!

You could've talked to me about it.

You could've too.

I gave you plenty of chances.

Don't you think I was hurt?

I would've preferred not to know,
but we can't go back.

That's why
I'll take all the responsibility.

Why?

Who else would be taking it?

Nobody. That's my point.

Excuse me.

Yes.

The old Fanti would've never done
something like that,

and not even the new one!

-So, now you give me an explanation!
-There is no explanation.

-It was the only thing to do.
-I'm not talking about the tank,

but about hiding the truth. From me.

Do you have a lawyer?

No.

Try him. He's good.

Can you try to call Giulia?

She's not answering.
I wonder how she's doing.

What do you think? Like shit.

Leave her alone for a while.

Actually, maybe it's better if you get out
of here too, until we know more.

Yeah. And now everything is up in the air
because of him. Can you believe it?

-You're lucky you left.
-Yeah.

Well, actually,
I should be back for a few days

to start the collaboration project
with Ambrosiano.

But you hang in there, okay? You hear?
If anyone can keep it together, it's you.

Okay, alright. Talk to you later. Bye.

I'm only saying that Lorenzo and Doc
applied one of their principles.

No, it's Doc's principle.

Lorenzo agreed but he was sick,
maybe he wasn't even rational.

You can't know this. You weren't there.

Of course, I know,
this will always be my crime.

But you can't justify his principle,
because you can't die for a patient.

What you can't do is abandon a department.
Any word from Giulia?

She's at home.
Let's give her a bit more time.

Fine. Let's focus on the patients.
Who do we have pending?

We have Gerardo's possible osteomyelitis,
the patient in room 24.

The CT shows
the prosthetic joint infection.

They'll remove it,
but we have to identify the bacteria.

Could be Staphylococcus,
we need to confirm.

-It's my shift, I can do it.
-Okay.

See, in this situation,
I'd rather not leave you alone.

Even though
I really don't feel like doing OT.

Okay. But let someone take your shift
so you can rest.

-See you later.
-Bye.

And you?

If you need any help, let me know.

We just got the serological test results
for this patient.

It's not syphilis as we thought.

-And it's not an immunological disorder.
-What if it's a lymphoma?

Did you do a biopsy?

It could be Sézary syndrome.
He's a bit young, but you never know.

Explains splenomegaly, fatigue,
skin lesions and fever.

It's not syphilis.

Actually, we think it might not be
an STD at all, but it's only a theory.

I know you've been active.
You told me when you were delirious.

But I'm not mad. And I didn't tell Dad.

I'm sorry, Mom.

But I'm not like you guys.

-So? What's wrong with him?
-We don't know yet.

Unfortunately, we can't exclude
more serious scenarios.

But diseases can be cured, right?

As long as it's not contagious.

We'll have a better idea after the biopsy.

We'll get you set up right away.

It's good you didn't tell him
about the lymphoma.

He only cares about
not being called a plague victim.

Nobody likes to be ostracized.

See you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

-Elisa.
-Hi.

Is it a bad time?

I mean no harm, don't worry.

I'm happy to hear from you.
How are you?

Like after a tsunami.
I've had a bit of a rough day and...

I thought about the COVID days,
and so I thought of you, too.

Yeah. Those phone calls
were good for us, huh?

Until... you ruined everything.

Maybe we can start over from there.

From those days.
I miss them, Elisa. You know,

in front of the church this morning,
I found a box with six abandoned kittens,

and I spent the whole day
feeding them with a bottle,

and looking for someone to take them.

Not true. You're only saying that
to soften me up. I know you.

No, I swear. I'll send you a picture.
Actually, do you want one?

We could've been good friends, Massimo.

We still can.

Let's do this. I'll teach you the practice
of forgiveness. I'm an expert, you know.

And anyway, we were already friends.

Even though I was scared
to tell you the truth,

and you wanted to convince yourself
that you were into me,

while you've always been in love
with someone else, right?

Hey. I'll try to forgive you,

but don't you act like a priest with me,
or much less a therapist, okay?

Giulia?

Giulia, open up. It's not good
to be alone when you're pissed.

Very pissed.

-Did you talk to him?
-I turned the phone off. He kept calling.

He's worried about you, Giulia.

I was in love with him for 10 years.

I went through it all,
the waiting, the amnesia,

I accepted it,
and even learned to care for him anyway.

Then I had the chance of having something
new with Lorenzo and he ruined that too.

I'll never step foot
in that hospital again.

So the hospital and department
have to do without you because of him.

I already said I was leaving.

Well, I was hoping
you'd change your mind.

Do you realize what he's done?

Huh?

Do you realize?

Come here.

I'd like to know how she's doing.

You can't help her anyway.
Enrico is right, leave her alone.

-Are you doing better?
-How can I be better, Dad?

You're about to be banned.

Everyone hates you
while they should hate me.

Yes, maybe telling the truth
won't change anything, but I...

I'll never feel like
part of the group again.

Here she is.

I knew you were together.

Neither one was answering,
so I brought you dinner.

You disappeared. What did Caruso tell you?

To find a lawyer.

And he's probably opening
a bottle of champagne right now.

If I didn't know that Cecilia reported me,
I would have thought he was behind it.

Since he's been director,
everything's been going wrong for me.

Doctor, what brings you in?

I need to ask you an important question.

Do you think that the cyber blackout

could've been caused by someone
who manipulated a hospital computer?

Yes, of course.
I've been saying it from the beginning.

Nobody believed me.
They blamed me, actually,

when someone else here is to blame,

someone very good,
who could bypass my security system.

Could it come from outside?

If a computer was taken
outside of the hospital?

Someone did that?

I'm just trying to understand
if the blackout could've originated there.

And exclude that a virus caused it.

It'd take five minutes for an expert
hacker to get the access codes

from a company computer.

If this happened, it needs to be reported.

I know. I only need time to understand
everything. Promise me.

Lock yourself in here
and don't talk to anyone about it.

That's easy.

Agnese?

So it's a family sport
hiding things from me.

You should think about it
before you report your friends.

Come back here.

I need to know if things with Lorenzo
really went the way Andrea said they did.

You're the one who blew the whistle.

Agnese, I hate myself for reporting him.

But he's not telling me everything.

And now you'll help me understand why.

-I'm really worried for--
-And you should be!

Because Caruso did everything he could
to take him out.

Including blacking out an entire hospital
to ruin his shot at becoming chief.

I'm almost sure
that he caused the cyber blackout.

It didn't work, so the charges appeared.

Doesn't that seem odd?

And you?

Why did you start
investigating those charts?

Did Caruso ask you?

-You see?
-What?

It's obvious that he's trying
to prevent him from becoming chief.

-And he used you against him.
-Andrea committed that infringement.

And he falsified a chart

-about a colleague's death.
-To protect his daughter.

It was Carolina who took
the oxygen tank Lorenzo had?

Yes, there was only one.

And a doctor
has to decide who to give it to.

The problem was that
the other tanks weren't coming.

And now Carolina has to carry that weight
for the rest of her life.

Andrea should've told me.

I'm telling you now.

Because I know who you are.

You're still Cecilia.
But he's still Andrea, too.

He makes mistakes
to protect the people he loves.

But he doesn't deserve what
they're doing to him. And you know it.

We have to go back
to being on the same side.

-And understand what Caruso is after.
-Okay.

I'll give Andrea another chance.

But I want him to tell me.

-Yeah.
-Andrea, are you in the ward?

I didn't think you wanted me there.

You're not suspended yet and I need
to talk to you. Can you come in?

May I know why?

Just come in, okay?

I'll look for you.

-Hey.
-Hey.

I didn't think I could sleep.

We're not going in today anyway, right?

Want some?

I understand it's her dad,
but Carolina can't do this to me.

Maybe she didn't come
because she feels uncomfortable,

because he is her dad.

It's not like it's her fault.

Damiano?

You were right. Gerardo's osteomyelitis
is due to a staph infection.

-Should we start the antibiotic treatment?
-Okay. Yes.

-And Giulia?
-Why do you ask me?

Listen, Elisa,
are Martino's biopsy results ready?

Yes.

Internal Medicine.

No, today is bad. Send him to Pulmonology.

Hey!

Bright and early!

What are you doing here?

Do you need help or not?

Yes, but don't mess anything up,
'cause this time I'll kill you.

Doctor.

I feel worse than yesterday.

Are we sure that everything
is under control, doctor?

I have to be honest,

it's a bad infection.

But we've identified it,
and this should help.

Thank you.

-Here you go.
-Wait.

There.

-Yes.
-There you go.

Doctor, I would stop working...

but I'm scared for my son.

Bookstores don't do so well
these days, you know?

But he's obsessed with books.
It's my fault.

Him and I...

have always been the weird ones
in the family.

Loving books is not weird.

In my house it is, indeed.

They made their money with prosciutto.

Except me, of course.

Now, doctor, if Alessio fails,

who's going to give him a hand, huh?

Who's going to help him? Nobody. Just me.

So, now I regret

not convincing him
to work with my brother-in-law.

Well, see it this way:

Do you think he would've been happier?

Less alone, for sure.

He's worse than yesterday, too.

The fever is spiking despite
the antipyretics. Low saturation.

Let's do a blood-gas
and get him some oxygen.

It's been like this
since this morning, I told you.

So, the good news is that the biopsy
excludes a lymphoma,

which was the worst scenario.

The problem is that
we still don't know what's wrong.

We have to run some more tests.

Oh.

I'm sorry. I thought you needed help.

I thought you weren't going to show up.

Why do I see blurry?

Easy, Martino. Stay seated.
Stay seated, Martino.

-Here.
-Help him up.

-I can't see.
-Take it easy. Breathe.

-What do you mean?
-I can't see anything.

Breathe, Martino. Does your hand hurt?

-What hand? No.
-Your hand doesn't hurt?

No, it doesn't hurt. I can't see anything.

Easy, Martino.

Martino, if I do this,
do you feel anything?

-I feel nothing.
-Nothing?

Nothing. I can't see!
I don't wanna go blind! I can't see!

Take it easy.
Get a sedative and help me, Carolina.

Take it easy, Martino. We're here.

So? Why did you come?

I haven't been suspended yet.
I'm staying until they kick me out.

Don't expect much solidarity.

We have a patient we need to diagnose.
Can we focus on that please? Thanks.

So, we have to add blurred vision
and neuropathy.

And the biopsy report was inconclusive.

Looks like a systemic infection.

Caused by what, though?

Maybe a tropical virus.
Has he been abroad?

I want to check something.

Are you okay, Carolina?

Look, you're not your dad.

Excuse me. Gerardo is getting worse,
and so is his roommate.

When you talked about Brazil yesterday...
Any chance that

you and your husband
maybe go there for work or something?

-No.
-Or maybe other countries, for work?

No.

Ma'am, Martino's conditions have worsened.

We think it could be a viral infection.

And maybe,
during one of your trips, or after,

you could've caught and given him
a latent disease.

Ma'am.

Your son's is risking his life.

I have a lover.

His name is Lucas.
I met him soon after I got married.

We've loved each other for 19 years.

I couldn't leave Michele.

Martino was born.

And my family would've never forgiven me.

I couldn't do it.

But Lucas stayed by my side anyway.

He's been my second life in Brazil
for 10 years.

And even now...

we find a way
to see each other at least...

once or twice a year.

Well, we need an update on the viruses
circulating in Brazil, right?

Yes.

I didn't think
I'd ever have to tell anyone.

But if it can save my son,

I'm willing to face the consequences.

The most common are yellow fever, malaria,
dengue and zika virus.

None of the four matches completely
Martino's symptoms but,

it could be some abnormal form.

Or it could be something else.

But until we do the serological tests,
we won't know.

-It'd be faster with the two of us, right?
-Yes.

Elisa? Teresa?

I think that the patients in 24
caught a hospital-acquired infection.

We have very strict sanitizing procedures.

I think we should make sure.

If it spreads, every patient is at risk.

And we have to warn Tedeschi.

She's been in a meeting since this morning
with the big wigs about a certain issue.

For now, we have to verify
what germ we're dealing with, quickly.

You go with him.
I'll take care of Martino.

Thank you for coming.

You know what I think.
This department needs you.

And if you and I can talk later...

Or not. You decide.

I came because I thought about it a lot.

I'm not the one
who needs to leave this department.

You are.

As you wish.

We have an infection in the ward.

We still haven't identify the bacteria,
but two patients already have it bad.

Send the guys to do the cultures.

I'll change and we'll do a round
to check it out, okay?

Okay.

How did you know
that I needed a friendly voice?

Andrea, listen, did you talk to Cecilia?

No, I haven't seen her.
She's been in a meeting. Why?

-She told you she wanted to talk?
-Yes.

Do you know why? What's the big mystery?

I was just wondering.
We'll talk later, okay?

Okay.

I was up thinking about it all night.

And I'm sure
that you can give me an answer.

Is there even remotely a reason that
would explain why Andrea did what he did?

I don't want to know what it is.
You just have to answer, yes or no?

Yes, there is.

She's in a meeting.

My fault, I know.

Before you say it again, I also know
that I'm not wanted, so I was leaving.

Actually,
I wanted to apologize for yesterday.

And tell you that...

That you have to be the one
to decide what to do.

Yes, the court will judge the facts,
that I don't really know.

I don't know the motives.
I don't want to know.

I know who you are.

And that's enough for me to say that...

you don't deserve
to be judged by everyone.

It has to do with Carolina, right?

-You said you didn't want to know.
-It was bullshit. And I already know.

You'd only do something like that
for your daughter, right?

It's your original sin.

Not being able to protect Mattia magnified
your protective instinct for Carolina.

I don't even remember my original sin.

You guys told me about it but...

I'm not sure it has to do with instinct.

Cognitive memory
isn't everything, you know?

An emotional part of that experience
could've been encoded somewhere...

in your nervous system.

Like a disease you catch as a child,
and don't know you have, and then,

pops up years later.

You think
it's coming out of nowhere, but...

it's coming from the past.

You're a genius.

A genius, you are.

Gab? I'm sorry,
I'm busy with some serologics.

I have to do them on my own.

Anyway, no news about Doc.

I would've never left you alone.

Let me remind you that you have.

Technically, last time, you left me.

Gab, let's not do this now.

-I'm busy, okay?
-Me too.

I have to meet an important person.

I better pay a visit,
before things get complicated.

I can't believe it!

-Hi!
-Hi.

And while I'm here,
I can help you with the case.

Yes.

Where is this patient from? Brazil?

More or less. I've already excluded
yellow fever and malaria.

Okay, then I'll start with zika.

-I figured it out. It's Hansen's disease.
-Hansen's?

-Gabriel! What a surprise.
-You're telling me, Doc.

-Well, Hansen's does explain everything.
-Yes.

We assumed that he was infected recently,
and through his mom,

while Martino himself caught it
years ago in Brazil.

So, forget zika
and let's start the culture for Hansen's.

Alright.

Doc, thank you for the help.

But you shouldn't be here.

You know that.

Doc found the diagnosis.

And we both know that when we have
to tell a patient, Doc is the best.

Listen, Doc is Doc.

But there are a ton of hospitals
that run without him in the world, right?

I don't get it.

For both patients in 24,
it looks like a klebsiella infection,

but it's not really klebsiella.

What if it's KPC?

It'd be a big problem.

You're right, we better make sure.

Alba, I feel feverish.

Turn around.

Yeah, you have a bit of a fever.

You're just tired, surely. I've been
telling you for weeks. You need to rest.

With this thing,
you've been doing too much OT.

Yeah. Yes, I'm probably just tired.

No, you don't get it.

You have to go home.

If you've learned anything from the past.

Okay. Okay.

-Go ahead.
-I'm going.

I can't believe
we're losing him like this.

Give him more oxygen.

-What's happening?
-Wait outside, please.

Alessio?

Pulse ox is down.
The cephalosporins aren't working.

The hemorrhagic pneumonia
is becoming septic.

I think this is klebsiella pneumoniae,
and it's everywhere.

Maybe it's even KPC.

Easy.

Breathe slowly.

Breathe slowly. Easy. Easy. Like that.

How can he have blurred vision
out of nowhere?

-Can't you do something?
-We are.

All of Martino's disorders
are caused by a virus.

And we're trying to identify it.

We've identified it.

It's not a virus, it's a bacteria.

The mycobacterium leprae,
which causes Hansen's disease,

and which probably comes from Brazil.

From Brazil?
We haven't been there in 10 years.

It doesn't matter. The disease can have
a long incubation period, even 10 years.

If he's had it for so long,

wouldn't he have given it to us,
and many other people?

Not necessarily.

Hansen's disease
has a very low infection rate.

-Is it curable?
-You're talking about leprosy?

What do you mean, it's not contagious?

You're telling me my son has leprosy?

-It still exists?
-Yes, it does.

But in limited cases and in some areas,
like some regions of Brazil.

And we don't call it that anymore.

The name sounds bad, it's a stigma.

Hansen's disease
has been curable since the 40s.

And with the first injection,
the infection rate drops to zero.

I have leprosy?

-I can't believe it.
-It's the best diagnosis, really.

And you can always call it
Hansen's disease.

Oh, please! It takes three seconds
to find it online. It's still leprosy.

You better leave the academy
before anyone finds out.

I'll find an acceptable explanation
to pull you out mid-year.

Enough!

Enough with these acceptable explanations.

We've been going on like this forever.
Starting with...

the lie about Martino's premature birth.

Martino, you weren't born at 8 months.

You were just conceived before marriage.

And while we're talking about marriage...

there's something else I have to tell you

about the last 20 years.

You guys took a while to decide
what to do with me.

Anyway, I decided to leave.

One thing is being unwanted by Caruso,
and another's being unwanted by everyone.

We didn't only talk about you.

The world doesn't revolve around you.

The fallout from this thing
includes the entire hospital.

What did you want to tell me?

-Come in.
-Excuse me, but it's an emergency.

We have a KPC infection.

It's the klebsiella pneumoniae
carbapenemase-producing bacteria.

The most resistant
of the multi-resistant bacteria.

And with the highest mortality rate.

Unfortunately,
we've already lost a patient.

He was elderly and fragile,
but the infection spread very fast.

-Which patient?
-Room 24.

-Gerardo, the gardener?
-The other one.

How do you always know everything
about the patients?

The most important thing
is to keep the infection from spreading.

We've already isolated the room,

it can only be accessed
with the necessary precautions.

Did you isolate the room?

I want blanket screening
of the entire staff,

all of the patients
and every single visitor that stepped foot

in the ward in the last two days.

The bacteria
could've already left that room.

Hoping that the bacteria
didn't already leave that room.

Riccardo was in there quite a bit
the past few days,

and he left with a fever.

Yes, but I didn't see him leave.

Riccardo? Riccardo! Help!

Riccardo?

-Let's turn him over.
-Help!

I've heard that your wife
told you everything.

She lied to me for 20 years.

But you both knew
why you were getting married, right?

You were in agreement.

You lied to everyone because of it.

Then, you know how it goes,
one lie leads to another and...

When can we get out of here?
I don't want to see her.

When we'll know
if the klebsiella test is negative.

It'll take a little while.

Did you talk to Martino?

To say what?

That I'm ashamed that my family
is built on a mountain of hypocrisy?

I'm not surprised
he's learned to lie so well.

Yeah, it seems like a good start.

That's what I was thinking.

I also ask myself sometimes...

what it would've been like
if this chain of lies never started.

Don't worry, the mask isn't for you.

We have a bacterial infection in the ward,

and we're checking everyone's test,
including yours.

This is the cure for Hansen's disease.
It's kind of long.

You have to do it for 12 or 24 months.

But then,
you'll be able to lead a normal life.

Yes, I know. But it won't be easy
when everyone will find out.

I'll call a nurse.

Hi.

Where did you go?

It's a long story.

-How are you feeling?
-Well, thanks.

-I'm sorry that your parents had a fight.
-I'm not.

It's the first time
my mom sounded sincere.

Can you believe that?

She hid the truth forever.
How did she do that?

-Sometimes there's a good reason to lie.
-Yeah.

So she wouldn't be ostracized
by that antiquated family of hers.

Family is always family.
No matter the flaws.

And it's always painful
letting it down, or losing it.

It happened to me.

And I think it's happening again.

If your family can't accept you,
it's better to lose it.

I've thought about it.

If you tell the truth,

many people won't understand,
but some will.

Maybe not right away,

but I don't want to leave the academy.

And in the end,
I'll know who my real friends are.

Even if I won't have a family anymore.

Dad?

Maybe I...

got it all wrong.

But I'd still like to be your family.

If you'll allow it.

Yes, I'll allow it.

Why the fuck are you talking like that?

Meeting in the doctor's room

The situation is difficult.

Many patients are positive
to the KPC bacteria

and all of you there are too.

Though your defenses are stronger
than the more fragile subjects.

Don't underestimate the speed
of the infection.

Riccardo is already in critical conditions
because of his immune system was weak.

I'm moving the few negative patients
and health operators,

but now I want the department

to be quarantined immediately.

Isn't a bit excessive?

You really want us all to camp out here?
Doctors, patients, and him too?

Until when?

Until we find a way to efficiently attack
this klebsiella, so try to hurry.

And remember, COVID taught us

that no precaution is excessive.

I'm sorry, but what are you doing here?
You're negative.

I know.

But this time, I'm staying.

Gabriel's right.

This is the time to show
that despite of everything,

we are a team of doctors
who are able to face something like this.

So? Did you talk to Andrea?

No, I didn't talk to him.

Have you decided what side you're on?

I don't need to decide.

I know what side I'm on.

We'll help him.

You and I together.
