00:00Previously on Shortland Street...
00:02He has medical records?
00:04What the hell?
00:05You are selfish and jealous and you disgust me.
00:07I know she's apologized but it's still awkward.
00:10Come to ours for dinner.
00:11Stop acting like this didn't mean anything.
00:13When you and I both fell...
00:15You're wishing it.
00:19Just call the number.
00:20You'll regret it if you don't.
00:21Frank, did you talk to Harry?
00:23Okay, you need to call the police and get some sleep, man.
00:26Cops are here. Let them wait outside.
00:27The police.
00:28The police.
00:29We have a warrant for your phone.
00:31You should be locked up.
00:32No, it wasn't me.
00:33It was Harry.
01:00Oh, did I wake you?
01:02It's okay.
01:04Go back to bed.
01:05Oh, water.
01:07Here, I'll do it.
01:14Any more mystery calls?
01:16Or anything?
01:17No.
01:18No?
01:19No.
01:20No.
01:21No.
01:22No.
01:23No.
01:24No.
01:25No.
01:26No.
01:27No.
01:28No.
01:29A random text.
01:30Brooke Freeman.
01:31Oh, yeah? What does she want?
01:33To give me a job.
01:35Right.
01:38Are you okay?
01:40She wants to meet tomorrow, 9am.
01:43Well, you better get your beauty sleep then.
01:47And look sharp, okay?
01:49Just to impress.
01:55What's happening here?
01:56Nothing.
01:58You guys been fighting?
02:00No.
02:01Is this still about the privacy, Brooke?
02:04No.
02:06Well, I mean, kind of.
02:08Phil's got some very strong feelings about it all.
02:11Oh, they're going into bat for you, mate.
02:13No need, babe.
02:15You know how I am.
02:16Always have to have the last word.
02:18But you can fight your own battles, right?
02:21Of course.
02:24Want a nightcap?
02:26Sure, yeah.
02:28Actually, I was just telling Harper how tired I am.
02:31Yeah, me too.
02:33And I'll work tomorrow on that.
02:35True.
02:38This was nice.
02:39And thanks for the delicious dinner, Drew.
02:42That veggie lasagna is always a hit, right?
02:44Yeah, never fails.
02:45Hey, thanks, guys.
02:46Really great hospitality and it was good to clear the air.
02:56How's the eye today?
02:58Still a bit red and sore, but the antibacterial jobs are working now.
03:02Excellent.
03:03Yeah, I can't wait to get this thing off.
03:05Well, it suits you, though.
03:07All I need is a parrot on my shoulder.
03:11You wouldn't have happened to have seen E. Hyer today?
03:14Not yet, but he's booked in to do a hernia repair later today.
03:17No, we'll be fine.
03:19I'm sure he'll be fine.
03:22Not yet, but he's booked in to do a hernia repair later today.
03:25Naval gazing on the job.
03:29There you go.
03:32Right, E. Hyer.
03:34Are you looking for Dr. Stone?
03:36Dr. Stone, yes.
03:37He's in ED all morning.
03:38I'm heading there now if you want me to pass on something.
03:40Oh, no, that's okay.
03:41It's just making a delivery.
03:43It's okay, I can take it.
03:44No, no, it's not urgent.
03:45I'm literally heading there right now.
03:47Let me save you the trouble.
03:49We're friends.
03:50You can trust me with, I don't know, his paracetamol or whatever.
03:54I do have a lot to get through.
03:57Okay, thank you, Natalie.
03:59Call me Nat.
04:00Nat.
04:01Bye.
04:05You had your appendix removed when was that?
04:07I was 12.
04:09This is unbearable.
04:10The tramadol hasn't kicked in yet?
04:12Can you just knock me out?
04:13Okay, I'll review your pain relief and I'll get you a scan as soon as possible.
04:16Please.
04:18I'll be back soon.
04:22Albert.
04:23Yeah?
04:24I've got a patient with extreme abdominal pain.
04:25Has strep endometriosis.
04:26I've given her 50 milligrams of tramadol.
04:28Hasn't even touched the sides.
04:29Okay, we'll give her another 50 milligrams.
04:31Um, do you think she needs surgery?
04:33We'll know for sure until we get the scan.
04:35But she's getting desperate.
04:36Right, um, I'll call radiology and see if I can bump her up the queue.
04:39Thanks.
04:40Phil.
04:41Last night, what happened?
04:42You tell me.
04:43I'm serious.
04:45You want to do this here?
04:47I don't.
04:48I don't want this weirdness.
04:51Okay, then we should, uh, obviously stay as far away from each other as possible.
04:55Agreed.
04:56No more little late night dinner parties then.
04:59Shame.
05:03Okay, um, we're going to need an adjustable bed.
05:07So I will text the hospital supply guys and see if we can rent one.
05:11Well, check with Leanne first.
05:13Babe, she's not going to make it up the stairs.
05:16I'm not checking every little thing with Mum.
05:19Are you avoiding her?
05:21I just want this done with the minimum of nagging.
05:24Honey, I don't think she wants to say goodbye.
05:28What?
05:29That's why she won't film the message?
05:31Because saying goodbye to you makes it real?
05:33She knows that she's dying.
05:35She has accepted it.
05:37Yeah, but letting go of the person you love the most?
05:41That's a whole separate thing.
05:43I'm not the person she loves the most.
05:45No, it's a relief, okay?
05:47I'm not going to have to endure a message every birthday telling me not to let myself go.
05:53Well, I think you're both going to regret it.
05:57We've lived in each other's pockets.
05:59Yeah, she's right. There's nothing left to say.
06:01Isn't there?
06:03Has she ever really told you how she feels?
06:06I don't need to hear it.
06:08Okay, but it'd be nice, yeah?
06:11I just want her to be comfortable for the rest of her time.
06:16So, adjustable bed, yes or no?
06:19Nick, talk to her.
06:21She's coming home to die.
06:24Doesn't mean she won't see the death bed as soon as she walks in.
06:30How's the pain now?
06:32Six, five.
06:35Jessica, this is Dr. Stone. He's been assessing your CT scans with me.
06:39Jessica, just call me Ihaia.
06:40Jess.
06:41Well, hi, Jess. Your CT scans show quite extensive damage, which we often see with endometriosis.
06:46Yeah, I know.
06:47There's also this area here.
06:49Which is what's been causing so much pain.
06:51Yeah, it's a cyst at the base of your right fallopian tube, quite swollen and infected.
06:55We have to remove it as soon as possible.
06:57Okay. There's a risk of the surgery, Jess.
06:59Because of the location of the cyst, it could affect your future fertility.
07:03I understand.
07:04But I'll do everything possible to avoid that.
07:07I thought you were to be doing it.
07:09They need me on duty here. There are never enough surgeons.
07:12But Ihaia will do a good job. I promise.
07:15Okay, I'll run through some pre-op checks with you if that's okay.
07:18All right. I'll catch up with you later.
07:22Most recently, I resected a malignant petroclival meningioma with some success.
07:32There were risks. Of course there were.
07:35I calculated. And I was very pleased with the result.
07:40So I'm back in the game, Brooke. Never left.
07:50Ihaia?
07:51It will never go away.
08:05Brooke?
08:20Brooke.
08:24Sorry. Yeah. Hey, I, um...
08:27I was, uh...
08:29Can we reschedule?
08:35Yeah. Okay.
08:39No. No, I'm sorry.
08:41Yeah. Okay. Bye.
08:53Right on time.
08:54You are in theatre four with Gary.
08:56Great. Who's on the team?
08:57Ooh, that would be me. The uterine cystectomy?
08:59Correct.
09:00Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, Captain Jack.
09:02Not with the eye patch, you don't.
09:04It doesn't compromise my vision.
09:06How can it not? Show me what we're working with.
09:11Ew.
09:13Okay, it's getting better.
09:14Ooh, how did it happen?
09:15A rancid spurt of infected thadpus.
09:19Wow.
09:20Okay, who told you that?
09:21Dr. Pimple Popper.
09:23Selina, Ihaia needs a scrub nurse with perfect vision. Is that too much to ask?
09:27This one can't see a thing, thanks to Thaddeus.
09:29Tell me about it, but she's all I got right now.
09:32Hey, can we push back the time?
09:33Sorry, no can do. This one's urgent.
09:35Okay, well, I'll scrub in, and then I will hand over to you, Madonna.
09:38Do you reckon you can run a tight ship?
09:40Please.
09:41Be watchful, Madonna.
09:44Are you going to be okay with the surgery?
09:46I'll give you a backup if you need.
09:47Yeah, man.
09:48Great.
09:52Sorry to bother you. Obviously, you've got a lot on your plate.
09:54Just wanted to check you've got your medication.
09:56Ah, yeah, all good. Thanks.
09:57Great.
09:59Exposing the cyst now.
10:04And, yeah, very infected.
10:07Well, she'll be glad to get rid of that.
10:09More suction, please.
10:11I'll just begin to isolate the cyst from the surrounding tissues.
10:15Not much room for error there.
10:17No. Size 11 blade, thanks.
10:21Eleven.
10:23Eleven.
10:28I've just got a few paperwork things that are in, and then you'll be able to go home.
10:32I'll be back soon.
10:35She's so lovely, isn't she?
10:37Maybe I should film a message for her, a little something for her baby's christening, perhaps.
10:44She doesn't have a baby, ma'am.
10:46Not yet, she doesn't.
10:49So you feel it in your waters?
10:52Mm-hmm. And I don't need my waters to tell me that you are in a mood.
10:57I'm not in a...
11:00We just need to sort things for you at home, OK?
11:03No, we don't.
11:05Be realistic. You can't do this to yourself.
11:08I will sleep in my own bed, thank you very much.
11:12Let's just stop this. I'm going to go get your prescription.
11:16You just rest.
11:22Damn, I thought that would be enough.
11:24Two more swabs?
11:25Coming right up.
11:26The cyst is more involved than expected.
11:28And what's that? It's not an aneurysm?
11:30No, that's a necrotic blood vessel.
11:35And another cyst.
11:36Bugger. Don't let it show on the scan.
11:39No, it must have been hiding behind the other one.
11:41Where's the bleeding coming from?
11:43I don't know. More suction, I can't see anything.
11:46Ah, BP's dropping.
11:48Where's the damn bleeder? She'll be heading for toxic shock.
11:5180 over 60.
11:53Sat's at 75%.
11:55She's crashing.
11:56I know that.
11:57Do you need backup?
11:59I'm capable of doing this.
12:01Fine. Do you need backup?
12:05Three hidden bleeders. Overwhelming sepsis.
12:08There was no way she was coming back from that.
12:11What do I tell the family?
12:13The truth. They'll be devastated.
12:16But I'll back you up.
12:18Listen, can you look me in the eye and tell me you did your best in there?
12:22I'll do my best.
12:24I'll do my best.
12:26I'll do my best.
12:28I'll do my best.
12:30I'll do my best.
12:32I'll do my best.
12:34I'll do my best in there.
12:37That's all I need to know.
12:41Well it doesn't matter now, does it?
12:43I still wasn't good enough, and she died.
12:47You'll be better next time, and the time after that.
12:54Oh god Phil, Jess was a patient.
12:57She's a surgeon. She'll understand.
13:00Hey, is Jess in recovery now?
13:04Ah no, she's not. I'm sorry Phil, she crashed during surgery and we lost her. I lost her.
13:14What?
13:15Yeah, just as shocked as you are.
13:18Why didn't you get help?
13:20I did. Drew, there's nothing either of us could do. Look it's not a bipolar thing or a meds issue if that's what you're thinking.
13:29No, I'm not. It's just a shock, that's all. But let's face it, you're only just back on your meds. It takes a while to even things out.
13:42Eddie.
13:47Hey. I heard what happened.
13:52Great. Now everyone thinks I'm crapping my job.
13:56Don't talk like that, you know that's not true.
13:58Yeah, sure.
13:59Look, when I'm feeling sad I...
14:01You know what, I don't want to talk about it with you right now. Or ever.
14:12Um, I haven't had that much.
14:16Sure you haven't.
14:18I'll set you to bed.
14:21Oh. You know, I was thinking about Frank. The thing is, I'd probably do the same if it were Selena. I'd go looking for her.
14:28Selena's not a murderer though, is she?
14:33What if he finds Harry?
14:35Well, then he'll be locked up along with his brother.
14:38Don't say things like that.
14:40Oh, Frank has a criminal past. Gang connections, drug trafficking.
14:45Well, one of my many failures as a father.
14:49Failed Frank, failed Harry.
14:53Not you. You were a good man.
14:57Rahu was a good man.
15:00Yep. Vili, don't leave.
15:04I'm going to let you get some sleep, but I'm here if you need.
15:45I'm going to let you get some sleep, but I'm here if you need.
16:03What the fuck?
16:15We don't have to talk.
16:20Thanks.
16:28I'll catch you later.
16:30Is that your mum?
16:32Yeah.
16:35I'm sorry.
16:38She's at rehab again, so it's whatever at this point. You know I don't get my hopes up.
16:44You know I don't like to talk about my problems, but we can still talk about...
16:49What, mine? No thanks.
16:52How's the medication?
16:54Yeah, fine. Takes a while to get used to.
16:58Right. Well, I guess medication is the new E-higher, which is a shame.
17:03It's still like the old one.
17:06Oh, for goodness sake.
17:10OK, you are officially discharged.
17:14What's wrong?
17:16I've been trying to make you a video.
17:18You don't have to.
17:20I do. You've been in such a mood about it.
17:23I'm sorry. I was just stung that you didn't want to do one.
17:28These aren't easy, you know.
17:30I know.
17:32These aren't easy, you know.
17:34I know.
17:35I can't just dash them off like they're nothing.
17:39The words, they're...
17:41They're not enough.
17:43OK?
17:44No, it's not OK.
17:46I have things I want to say.
17:50To me.
17:54All right, then.
17:57OK.
18:02Black cohosh.
18:04What?
18:06It's a herb. It's for hot flushes.
18:09So you can take it as a capsule or as a tea.
18:15Cool. I will make note of that. Thank you.
18:19I'm not finished.
18:22You said...
18:24I drive you mad you said it at the funeral.
18:26I said it with love. That's just how we are.
18:29I have something to say, too.
18:34As soon as they handed you to me in the hospital,
18:38just a wee bundle like a peeled potato,
18:42I vowed to be the best mum I could.
18:46And you have been.
18:48Sometimes.
18:50But I've been selfish, too. I put myself first.
18:53I left when you needed me.
18:56You're allowed to have your own life, Mum.
18:58I'm sorry.
19:00For all the times I let you down.
19:02Just stop. OK?
19:04I know. I know all this.
19:06You love me. You're proud of me. Et cetera, et cetera.
19:09Et cetera, et cetera.
19:11That's just the shorthand.
19:14For what?
19:15For all the love stuff.
19:17Oh, my God, you don't know.
19:20I do.
19:22Well, you don't.
19:26Nicole...
19:28Tissue, quick!
19:30Yep, yep.
19:33Mum, you don't have to do this.
19:35Shut up!
19:40Nicole,
19:42you're the biggest love of my life, aren't you?
19:45Mum...
19:47Please, don't interrupt.
19:53Because I want to tell you, I need to tell you
19:57how proud I am.
20:01I can't even believe how amazing you are.
20:05You're just so, so much better than I've ever been.
20:10I don't mind dying.
20:13Not really. You know I'm ready, but...
20:17It's one thing. It's...
20:19It's one person I can't...
20:21I can't bear to be without.
20:24And that's the worst thing about all this.
20:27The worst thing...
20:32The worst thing about leaving...
20:35The worst thing about leaving...
20:39is leaving you.
20:44Till there, I told you I couldn't do it.
20:51These aren't normal dreams.
20:54Nightmares?
20:57Yes.
20:59Well, you know that's a common response to trauma,
21:03but you thought Harry was trying to contact you.
21:06Maybe.
21:07And Frank hassling you?
21:11He thinks I'm a coward.
21:13No.
21:15I need to thank you for not saying anything.
21:18What? When?
21:20To Jaya, when she asked me about Frank.
21:23I don't know what you're talking about.
21:25You were standing right there.
21:28I'm so lost.
21:30When Detective Rajan questioned me yesterday,
21:33now I can't stop dreaming about it.
21:36Yesterday?
21:37You let her in.
21:40No, I didn't.
21:42What?
21:44Yeah, I haven't seen that detective since...
21:47I don't know, months ago.
21:50But she was here.
21:52You let her in?
21:54No.
21:56Are you joking?
21:59Chris, I wouldn't.
22:02What is wrong with me?
22:05Am I having a stroke?
22:07No.
22:09I'm losing my mind.
22:19Hey. You're here late.
22:22Are you? I was just leaving.
22:25Want to go get a drink before you do?
22:28Well, I definitely don't want to go home.
22:31Okay, what's going on?
22:33Phil thinks I'm back on my meds.
22:35Yeah, I gave them to you.
22:37I haven't started taking them.
22:39I've been meaning to.
22:41But you don't want to.
22:42Yeah.
22:43Look, I need to start taking them.
22:46No one wants the rollercoaster guy.
22:49Not you and...
22:51especially not Phil.
22:53You don't know what I want.
