(Samut Songkhram - 2003)

How is it? Do the headphones work?

The uncle from the scrap store was kind enough to give me that.

Shin.

- Yes? - Please help me carry this ice cream tank.

Of course.

Don't go anywhere, alright?

After I'm done, I'll take you to return the book.

Okay?

Okay.

I'll be back.

Shin, come on.

Shin!

Shoan.

Shoan!

Yes?

It's already six. Let's go for our morning round.

You haven't entered our group chat, right?

I'll invite you to it.

Our group chat is called "We're Never Free on Any Day."

Just a moment.

Okay.

(Hi, Shoan.) (Can you please tell us first before inviting him?)

(Dr. Mummim deleted Dr. Shoan from the group.) (Yeah, that's too fast.)

I don't see any invitation.

This area probably doesn't have signals.

The Wi-Fi signal might not reach here.

It's like a blind spot in the hospital.

I'll take care of this tomorrow.

Are you sure you're never free?

We have to be at least free for one day.

It's not like that's actually happening.

It's just a fun and sarcastic way to name our group chat.

I have one sarcastic joke to tell you.

You have one?

This sentence doesn't have eight words.

(Are you at the hospital, Win?)

I'm still driving. I didn't have my morning round, so I got out late.

What's wrong, May?

(It's nothing much.)

(I just want to remind you about our dinner with my dad.)

(When are you free next week?)

(So that we can talk about when you're going to work in my dad's hospital.)

May...

I haven't promised I'd work there.

(You said you wanted time to think. It's already been a year.)

(Or do you not want to work with my dad?)

That's not what I said.

Okay, May.

I have to hang up. My mom is calling.

Yes, Mom?

(Hello, Win.)

(Next week is Wee's death anniversary.)

(Please come to see your brother.)

Can I think about it first?

If you want to go with Dad, you can go there without me.

(I want you to go with us.)

(He probably misses you as well.)

Gender, age, symptom, latest treatment.

After the operation,

you can go home after

two or three days of resting.

Thank you, Doctor.

We'll excuse ourselves.

Wait, Doctor.

If my symptoms are back, I have to get another operation, right?

There is more than a 60 percent chance that the cancer will return.

We'll treat you with medicine first

to decrease male hormones called ADT that could cause

a five-percent chance of heart disease death within five years.

Even if I get treatment,

I'll still have a chance to die?

Let's say that

it's possible

that there'll be side effects from ADT

that are also possible

to create cataracts in some cases.

That's true.

But please don't worry.

What he just said was a medical hypothesis.

In reality,

we have to conduct further diagnosis

with the doctor of the case.

Please have a rest.

- Thank you. - We'll take our leave now. Goodbye.

Goodbye.

(Episode Four: Eyes Don't Lie)

How could you say that to a patient?

You're going to shock them.

Do you not know

how they would feel

when you talk about death?

The word "death" will distress patients.

And do you know what kind of face they would make?

Is this an angry face?

What about a sad face?

That still looks like an angry face.

Look at me.

When I do this...

Like...

- That's angry. - No, that's an annoyed face.

What if I do this?

- That's also angry. - No! That was a doubting face!

See? That's your problem, understand?

You don't know

how people feel and what their facial expression means.

What about this?

Smiling.

How do they feel?

Smiling

equals happiness.

Yeah! Just like that.

From now on, please try

to pay attention to about 10-20 people every day to discern

how they feel with their faces.

We'll have a test later.

Don't you like tests and challenges?

Yesterday we just...

How do you feel right now?

Yesterday, Kamon from ER

fell through sewer gates. It's so funny.

Look at her.

Somrak, how do you feel right now?

I put in the wrong data again.

How do you feel right now?

Annoyed, Doctor.

Doctor.

Can you go away for now?

Darn it.

When will I finish this?

And is it good?

It's really good.

Dad can use it to count his steps when he takes a walk.

It also warned that Dad's heart was beating too fast.

I want that.

Do you want a smartwatch?

No way. You're still a child. You should use a normal watch.

I'll buy it for you.

Which color do you want?

Pink.

Pink? And what else?

- And glitter. - And glitter too?

How is your dad?

Dad likes to sleep. He also laughs when he sleeps.

Why is he laughing while sleeping?

Dad was watching a comedy show. He laughed while watching it.

How did he laugh?

Ha-ha-ha.

Dad's condition has gotten a lot worse?

From the echo report, the systole doesn't look good.

Your heart is rather weak.

As I said earlier,

the best treatment method right now is a heart transplant,

but it'll take some time until we can get a donated heart.

A heart transplant? How much does that cost?

And I think I also heard about

heart transplant incompatibility before.

Oh, you don't have to worry about that.

Your heart transplant fee is included in your fundamental right.

And before transplantation, we have to check to see if that heart

is compatible with you.

It just might take some time until we can get it.

I'll just do what you say, Dr. Prim.

If I have to wait, I'll have to wait.

Since I have to get the treatment,

it'll be nice if my symptoms are fully gone.

My daughter is going to be an adult soon.

If there's a man hitting on her,

I'll be able to teach him some lessons when I feel better.

Dad, you're still joking around in this state?

I'm glad that you're still smiling.

But I really recommend you stay in the hospital for now,

so it'll be easier when a donated heart arrives.

With this wardroom,

my daughters can't stay with me, right?

Then,

I don't think I'll stay here,

because

there'll be no one who stays with them at our house.

My house isn't that far from the hospital anyway.

When you call for me,

I can run here immediately.

I can be with you within 10 minutes.

You're the best runner in the world, Dad.

Yes.

I'm a good runner, my daughter.

(Reception)

- Are you on shift today? - Prim.

No. I'll go home after I finish my meal.

Okay.

Is this for Pleum?

No.

It's for that guy,

the one you saw before.

I'm so tired of this.

You should have a boyfriend too.

Stop your nonsense.

Why did you buy a lot of food?

Is it for the monk's offering?

Who would do that in the evening?

I'm going to visit my relatives.

See you later.

- Bye. - Enjoy your meal.

- Take care. - Sure.

Bye-bye.

Hello, Arm. Are you coming down soon?

There's an emergency case? It's fine. I can eat by myself.

(Mim.)

Yes?

(I'm really sorry.)

Shoan!

Yes?

Do you want to get in?

Just get in!

Quick!

Yes, of course, Dr. Prim.

Watch out.

Your car smells like a cafeteria.

That's right.

Look.

Do you have any errands to do?

- I have to read two research papers. - So you're not busy.

Please accompany me

on my errand.

Where are we going?

Chat, you can stay in the special room in the hospital tomorrow.

- It's here. - Our hospital

has a special program

to cover the cost that I have applied for.

And you got a private room.

Your daughters can all stay in the room.

Is that true?

- Yes. - Wow.

Heart Surgery Research Program,

Medical Device Donation Program,

Treatment for Patients from Border Provinces Program.

That's all.

There's not a program for cost...

Why did you hit me?

He's a new doctor. There's a lot he still doesn't know.

This program really exists.

You don't have to worry.

Thank you so much, Dr. Prim.

You should have dinner with us.

It's already evening.

That's good. You don't have to cook anything. I've already bought them.

- There's a lot of them. - We have everything.

- You can have them for several days. - Thank you.

Take them, girls.

- Can you do that? - Stinky, don't bother the doctor.

Dad, its name is Konmek.

It's Stinky for me.

It hasn't even taken a bath.

But there's one good thing about it.

When Mali and I go out to work,

it can still accompany my youngest daughter.

They might be best friends.

I think she doesn't know my name anymore.

She can only call its name.

Why?

Why are you like that?

Is this a joke?

Well, he doesn't really have any humor.

He rarely laughs.

Don't you know how to play along?

Does our hospital have a special program to cover costs for patients?

Lower your voice.

I haven't heard about it before.

Where did you learn about this?

It doesn't exist.

I'm the one who's covering that cost.

You have to keep this a secret. Don't tell anyone, got it?

You're lying to him?

Well...

Yeah.

I want to help him. Just look at them.

How would those girls live if Chat is gone?

I know it isn't

my duty, but I still want to help them, even if I weren't a doctor.

Because they don't have enough money?

Sometimes, money can buy happiness.

Alright?

Keep this a secret. Don't let the hospital know, or I'll get killed.

I beg you.

Please.

Please.

Dad!

Chat!

Mr. Suchat, you fall unconscious because your heart is extremely weak.

Your condition isn't that different from when we talked in the afternoon.

Thank you so much, Doctor.

I was a little too surprised because I was too happy.

Happy about what?

I got accepted to the special program

that is going to cover the cost

of my treatment.

Dr. Prim recommended that program to me.

She told me to

stay in a special room in the hospital.

That's why

I don't have to worry about them anymore.

A special program?

Yes.

You paid for his special room, right?

Yes.

Prim.

If that is spread around,

and they realize that the program doesn't exist,

they'll think we give special treatment.

I haven't thought that far. I'm sorry.

Forget it. It's already done.

But next time,

if you want to use your money to help patients, talk to me first.

You don't have to get yourself in trouble.

Okay.

It's good that you want to help patients.

- But being too close to... - Dr. Prim.

Excuse me, Professor.

- Mr. Chat will receive a donated heart soon. - Really?

There's a website for online organ donation.

A lot of people have used this. That's why we got it a lot faster.

Okay.

We have to get Mr. Chat's heart from Suraphaet Chonburi University Hospital

within 24 hours, Professor.

Prim.

- Call an urgent meeting. - Okay.

There's an operation I have to do.

I don't think I can harvest the heart myself.

I talked to Professor Athit,

a cardiac surgeon from Suraphaet Hospital.

Pleum, I'll leave you to divide the work among yourselves.

Prim and I will stay with you to prepare for the operation. Nick,

Mummim,

and Shoan,

you'll go get the heart.

For the harvesting team,

you have to be punctual.

The operation can't take more than four hours. Remember that.

Yes.

Will we be alright?

We still have to take the heart to the hospital first.

Let's go.

Shoan!

Let's go.

Yes.

Shoan.

Do your best.

Do your best too.

Prim, prepare the operating room and check on the patient.

- Yes. - (Fourth floor.)

- Oh, hello. - Hello.

- Hello, Professor. - Hello.

(The doors are closing.)

I heard that you're using Shoan for work.

Those kids split their work among themselves.

That's also an important job.

If you didn't trust someone, you wouldn't let them go.

I know that you want him to be a doctor,

but aren't you afraid that someone else will use this to attack you?

I'm an old man, Win.

My future

isn't as important as the future of children who are growing up.

Later, Win.

Mim, are you alright? Is there something wrong?

Nothing. It's my first harvest, so I'm a little nervous.

Come on. After we're done, you can go on a date with your boyfriend.

Okay.

But your face doesn't seem like you're happy.

What are you so nosy for?

Calm down!

Shoan didn't mean it. Why would you have to be so mad?

Sure.

We're flying to get your donated heart.

You'll get an operation within four hours.

Are you ready?

I'm ready.

Please save your strength.

It's already raining.

It's already raining.

Mali.

Why do you make that kind of face?

I'll be cured after I get the treatment. We'll get to go home soon.

Ta.

Don't worry about Konmek.

We'll get to go home soon.

Mali.

Take your sister out for dinner.

But, Dad...

Just go. She's probably hungry now.

Doctor.

Please take my daughters out for a meal.

I'll be back soon, Dad.

Don't worry. The doctor is always by my side.

You should go.

Dr. Prim.

All I ask you is this.

(Suraphaet Chonburi University Hospital)

- Where? - This way, please.

Dr. Pleum, have you seen Mata?

She isn't in the special room?

She's not there. I only left her for a bit to get water.

What's wrong?

Mata is gone. I still haven't found her.

Chat has to go to the OR soon.

- Pleum, go find her. - Sure.

Aortic cross clamp.

Cross clamp on.

Cardioplegia.

Ice, please.

Cardioplegia is running out.

Metzenbaum, please.

Prepare the bag.

Tie it up.

Stay safe.

Dad.

Mali.

Where is Mata?

Oh...

She's probably with Dr. Pleum.

They're probably buying food downstairs.

When you get out,

she and I will be waiting for you here.

It's raining heavily.

I don't think we can fly anymore.

We have to do an emergency landing.

I'll tell them to provide you with an ambulance.

- This way, Doctor. - Yes.

- The police will be waiting at the halfway point. - Yes.

We're going to perform an open-heart surgery. Blade, please.

We have a problem!

There's a hole in the container. It can't keep the temperature.

When will we arrive? There's a problem with the container.

In half an hour if these cars make way.

- Shoan, Mummim, stay in the car and look after the container. - Yes.

Can you please move your car out of the way?

We have to take a heart to the hospital as soon as we can.

Do you think you're the only one in a hurry?

Sir, I'm being nice to you.

That's not my business.

Go away. This is so annoying.

Hey, Shoan!

Where are you going?

Where are you going? Shoan!

Shoan!

Shoan!

Good evening, I'm Dr. Shoan Jatemeechai, 26 years old.

I'm a first-year resident at GMC Medical Center.

It's necessary for me to use this ice cream tank

right now.

Sir, please move your car out of the ambulance's way.

Quick!

So annoying!

Thank you.

Mummim, where's Shoan?

I don't know where he is.

We can go now. Shall we go?

- Wait! Shoan is coming! - Don't go yet.

Wait!

I got a new container.

You can go now! Go!

Come with me!

I think it's fine now.

Removing the old heart.

(Son Thong Ice Cream)

You guys

did really well.

Go.

Shoan.

Have you seen Mata here at all?

I don't know where she is. I'm worried she's not in the hospital.

I'd like to go outside.

Where are you going?

Shoan!

Shoan!

The new heart is in place.

Okay. Prepare for anastomosis.

Mata.

Mata.

Mata.

Mata.

Mata.

Doctor, Konmek is afraid of thunder.

I'm afraid it might disappear.

I want to go see Dad, but I don't know how to go there.

You can follow me.

I'll take you to the hospital to see your dad.

Will my dad get better soon?

Your dad had his heart changed.

Your dad will get better.

Follow me.

Stitch it.

We'll start with the left atrium.

Followed by the inferior vena cava.

Then, the superior vena cava.

Mali!

I'm sorry. I was worried about Konmek.

It's fine, Mata.

Where's Dad? I want to see Dad.

We'll wait for him here.

He just went in to strengthen his heart.

Do you remember what our dad is good at?

He's good at running.

Yes.

When he comes out,

the three of us will run back to our home.

Do you want to run with Dad?

I want to. I'm the best runner!

The best in the world.

We'll perform de-airing

to remove air out of all the heart chambers.

Here is the thing you asked me to help find.

Thank you.

You did great today

to resolve that situation.

If there were only me,

I wouldn't know what to do.

Thank you.

And

I'm sorry.

It's not that I don't like you.

What you say just always hits a nerve with me.

I was actually sad,

but I didn't want my co-workers to see that I was sad.

That's why I could only smile and say I was alright.

Do humans have to do this?

If we didn't do that,

we wouldn't look like a professional.

I get it now.

What?

Patients and their relatives

all like to smile,

but their eyes

seem really sad.

That must mean they're sick,

but they tell other people they're fine.

That's probably because

curing your mind is a lot harder

than curing your physical body.

But I still don't get

how lying can make you stop feeling sad.

My anastomosis is done.

Cross clamp off.

Prim, you can continue.

Yes.

Defib at 20 joules.

Twenty joules.

One, two, three.

Clear.

How is it?

His heart rhythm is still V-fib, Professor.

Use 40 joules this time.

Forty joules. One, two, three.

Clear.

Professor, his new heart still doesn't start beating.

How much medicine have we used?

Right now, dobutamine is at 10, adrenaline is at 2,

and Primacor is at 0.5.

Suction.

The anastomosis is fine.

Professor, should we use ECMO?

Dr. Prim.

All I ask you is this.

If this operation fails...

Chat...

Please let me go.

You don't have to use

any machine to try to perform life support for my heart

or for my lungs.

I beg you.

I don't want to be a bother for my daughters.

If I can't go on,

please let me go.

Chat...

Please promise me.

I promise.

Thank you.

You should have a lot of rest.

Please do rest.

I'll do my best.

(Refusal of Life-Sustaining Treatment)

(Close Associate: Dr. Primlada Echawalanon)

Prim.

Prim.

Dr. Prim!

That's enough.

He's already gone.

Mr. Suchat Jitdee

passed away at 7.05 pm.

Dr. Prim.

Where's Dad?

Where's my dad?

Your dad

has passed away.

Where's Dad?

Mali, where's Dad?

Dad has gone to heaven.

I want to go to heaven with him.

You can't.

You can't go to heaven right now.

Why hasn't Dad come back?

Dr. Shoan said Dad would come back.

Thank you, Prim,

for always helping us.

You have to look after your sister from now on.

Your dad was really proud of you. He also really loved you.

You'll be fine.

Let's have dinner together next time, alright?

Professor.

I'll take my leave now.

I have to have dinner with my family.

Nick, I'll go with you.

- Sure. I'll give you a lift. - See you soon.

Sure.

See you soon.

Bye-bye, Shoan.

Doctor, please help me.

How did it get up there?

How did Konmek get up there?

It ran away from another big dog.

I didn't know how it got up there.

I need a chair.

Come on.

What?

Climb on my shoulder.

I can't.

A younger person shouldn't climb on an older person's shoulder.

It has to be you.

These kids can't reach it.

Quick.

If you don't climb on me,

I'll consider that you fail a test.

Are you really going to be my chair?

- Are you going to climb? - Yes.

Good. That's it.

Come on.

Excuse me.

Have you gotten it?

Konmek!

Yeah!

You're so awesome!

Thank you.

Do you like dogs?

It's a frequency wave.

It has a single-frequency wave, so it's easy to understand.

When it likes something,

it'll express itself.

If it likes something, it'll go close to it.

If not, it'll try to threaten it.

Is that why you understand animals and children

better than your usual people?

Well...

It's good that you have kindness and sympathy for patients.

However,

don't promise anyone that they'll be safe.

We don't know what is going to happen during or after the surgery.

If you want to be a good doctor, there's still a lot you need to learn.

Got it.

There's a lot I need to learn.

We're done now. Should we go?

Did you get beat up by someone?

- There's a footprint here. - Really?

Yeah.

It needs to be sent to the laundry.

Just forget it.

- Shoan, let's go home. - Yes.

Wait...

Are you living together?

What are you saying?

Why did you say it like that? That's creepy.

Shoan is living in Professor Prapas' room.

He's in the opposite room of mine.

- That's right. - Yeah.

Don't say that to anyone else. It's creepy.

We're leaving. Goodbye.

(Hello, Win.)

I'll go there with you, Mom.

Let's meet up at that place.

Yes.

Are you a professional, Dr. Prim?

What?

If you're a professional,

you'll say you're fine,

although you're not fine.

I...

I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me, though.

You look like Dr. Mummim.

Your eyes and face seem sad,

but you said you're not sad.

Why did you have to lie?

I'm not lying, Shoan.

Why does everyone have to be like this? Why?

- Why do they think of other people's feelings more... - Shoan.

Why? Is it because

curing your mind is a lot harder than curing your physical body?

Shoan, can you stop talking about this?

Shoan, don't ask anything now, please.

I don't want to lie to others. I don't want to lie to myself either.

But can you please try to understand that I don't know what to do?

If I didn't ask Chat to get the operation, he'd still be alive now.

If I could turn back time, I wouldn't do that. I feel like

I'm the one who caused his death, got it?

If you get that,

please be quiet for now.

(Dr. Prim...)

(Dr. Prim is unwell. She needs to be cured.)

(Things that can make Dr. Prim feel better: First, playing a joke.)

(Second, Dr. Prim likes physical touch. Third, Dr. Prim likes latte.)

Shoan.

Shoan.

Shoan.

Why didn't you sleep on the sofa?

Do you want to go grab a bite?

There are a lot of patients in the ward. It's going to be a long night.

(Shoan is going to buy some food. Does anyone want something?)

(I want phat kaphrao with crispy pork belly.)

(I want cold green tea with pork phat kaphrao.)

Are you going with me, Dr. Prim?

Yeah, I'm already starving.

Dr. Prim.

Are you okay now?

I'm okay.

You're a professional.

A doctor who can do her best to save patients

is a professional.

Therefore, today,

I allow you to drink a latte with an added sweetness

to cure your mind.

I was going to drink it anyway.

When was the first time you got into the OR, Dr. Prim?

When I was a first-year resident.

But it was quite a while until I actually got to operate.

When will Professor Archawin let me go into the OR?

That's a difficult question, you know.

Is something the matter?

Why do you all look so stressed?

Hello, Mr. Aof.

You look nice today.

Have you been to a cosplay event?

Or are you actually a transgender?

You're so funny, Sea Lion Doctor.

I want to be a fish.

I don't want anything from you.

Don't donate anything to me.

I was born this way.

I can't be cured of it, Professor.

I'll prove to you

that I can do everything like others.
