00:00Previously on Shortland Street.
00:02To fill the gap left by the NPC.
00:04I'm looking at running weekend clinics instead.
00:06Planning a revolution?
00:07It's a bit risky, isn't it?
00:08Giving details to a clinic that doesn't exist.
00:10I'm trusting Esther. She knows how to get things done.
00:13Jocelyn Kellerman has a skin infection caused by the folds of her skin rubbing together.
00:17Oh yeah, that looks sore.
00:18How long has it been like that for?
00:20A while.
00:21Jocelyn's cultured a multi-resistant organism.
00:23So the antibiotics we've been using have been useless?
00:26Yeah, her kidneys are packing in. I'm not giving up.
00:28Me neither.
00:31Shortland Street
00:42Hey, what's going on?
00:43Nothing, I'm fine.
00:45I'm not buying it, Grayson.
00:48It's all just so useless, you know.
00:50I've tried everything I can think of and she is still not improving.
00:54Yeah, you're right. It sucks.
00:56I know, I know. I should have acted earlier.
00:59Got her into theatre sooner.
01:01I'm sorry, but is Jocelyn your mum? Is she your wife?
01:04That's not what I mean.
01:06You don't get to have a pity party while Jocelyn's in there fighting for her life.
01:09I'm allowed to have feelings.
01:11Yeah, you're allowed to feel angry that the system's let her down and you're allowed to want her to live.
01:15I do.
01:16So stop having her cry.
01:18And channel all your energy back into Jocelyn.
01:20You said you weren't giving up.
01:22So start acting like it.
01:30There you are.
01:32No pressure, but I have a waiting list for the volunteer clinic ready.
01:36Okay, um...
01:37Don't panic. I'm exaggerating.
01:39But still, I've got a guy in ED.
01:41He'll be the first on the list.
01:43Well, I just got an email from Medivitas, Medvitas, my next boss.
01:48Awesome. Can't wait to see Chris's face.
01:50Chris?
01:51Oh, doesn't matter.
01:52So when can we get the doors open?
01:55The clinic isn't happening.
01:57And I did everything I could.
01:59I thought we had a really strong pace.
02:01But what?
02:02You said you would sort this.
02:04What was it? A trust me jam?
02:06I sent through all the stats we have.
02:08All the knock-on effects on health and the community.
02:10Literally everything I could think of.
02:12Believe me, I wanted this as much as you do.
02:14I trusted you to come through on this.
02:16What else do you want me to do?
02:18Go back to ED and explain to my patient.
02:20Shockingly, my strongly worded email didn't work, so no support for you.
02:25Come back to us when you feel like someone cut off your airway again.
02:28You can't put that on me.
02:30You know, maybe you should have waited for an actual answer before jumping the gun.
02:33What is this? You've switched over already, have you?
02:36Profit over people, didn't take long.
02:38That's not fair.
02:39Is it?
02:40I get that you're upset and I've said that I'm sorry.
02:43Say that you're stuck.
02:52Just stay in the bed, okay?
02:54Drunk?
02:55I don't think so.
02:56Drugs?
02:57I don't know. Any history?
02:58This is Jane Philippi, patient of the MPC.
03:01Jane, listen to me. I need you to sit down so I can assess you, okay?
03:04Have you taken any drugs?
03:06Hello, my patient.
03:07Can you tell me what urine is?
03:11Can you hold both arms in front of you?
03:13Left side weakness. Take some bloods, please.
03:15I suggest an IV line first and an urgent head CT.
03:18Chris, my patient.
03:19I think she's having a stroke.
03:20If you give me a minute, I can assess her.
03:22Oh, do the IV line first.
03:24Okay, notes say recurring headaches.
03:26GP suggests bloods and carotid ultrasound.
03:29Did that happen?
03:30No.
03:31Oh, I wonder why.
03:32Oh, because the MPC got closed down. Great.
03:34You said you'd talk to Esther.
03:35She can't do anything.
03:36I'm sorry to hear that.
03:37I thought she had more guts than that,
03:39but she just caved, like everyone else in this hospital.
03:42You have to keep moving forward.
03:43Gina, forget about the clinic.
03:44Try and stop me.
03:46Well, she is having a stroke. Let's take her to CT.
03:50You can't honestly be expecting to hear from him.
03:53It wasn't that bad.
03:54It could hardly be any worse.
03:55You slammed the door in his face, which I do not get.
03:57You know, lovely Nige shows up, his hair all floppy over his forehead.
04:00You barely even saw him.
04:01All those podcasts have sharpened my imagination, Monique.
04:04I'm not wrong, am I?
04:05Oh, God, you're right.
04:06His hair was perfectly positioned on his forehead.
04:08As you crushed his soul.
04:10Sage.
04:11Sorry.
04:12Where are you at with it anyway?
04:13You just didn't want him to say it?
04:15No, I just... I can't. I...
04:17So what are you going to do about it?
04:18I'm just going to... I'm going to breeze past it.
04:20Like, it didn't happen.
04:22Oh.
04:24Sage.
04:26Um, um, coffee.
04:28Sorry?
04:29Yep.
04:32I'm guessing he knows.
04:33Says what?
04:34Last night.
04:35Oh, my God. Yes, last night.
04:37I am so sorry I slammed the door in your face
04:39before you had a chance to say a single thing.
04:41I just... I...
04:42I really needed to pee, like, urgently.
04:45And then when I was done,
04:46I totally forgot that you were there.
04:48Right.
04:49Well, it was nothing.
04:51I just came to say hi.
04:53Right, OK.
04:54Well, hi.
04:55Hi.
04:56Hi.
04:57Hi.
04:58I should get back to work.
05:00Great.
05:01Well, uh, I'm coffee.
05:03Yeah.
05:08Well, three in a row.
05:10Must have been a big night.
05:12He's awake.
05:13Welcome back.
05:15Drew had a little sleep in the bar last night,
05:17leaving others to carry the party on, namely Marty.
05:19I wasn't sleeping.
05:21I just closed my eyes for a few seconds.
05:23It looked like a pretty solid sleep, my friend.
05:25You must have needed it.
05:26That was a micro-nip.
05:28Well, whatever it was, I hope it did the trick.
05:33A fraction of a micro-nip.
05:36A micro-nip.
05:44Did you stay all night?
05:46I kept meaning to go, but I just didn't.
05:48That's pretty dedicated.
05:50I'm not trying to score points, Phil.
05:53But I know that I went a bit far last night.
05:57You were right.
05:58I was making it about me.
06:00Hard not to sometimes.
06:02How's she doing?
06:04Much the same.
06:06Heart rate up.
06:08Blood pressure drops as soon as we titrate.
06:10The vasopressor's back just even a little bit.
06:12Right.
06:13I've contacted Renal,
06:14and we're going to start her on dialysis this afternoon.
06:17Is that going to help?
06:18It won't hurt.
06:19And we're going to start her on Milrinone
06:21to increase cardiac contractility.
06:23You're not holding anything back?
06:25I'm just doing what Jocelyn deserves.
06:29What's the hold-up with HEU?
06:31I'm not sure.
06:32Do you want me to talk to them?
06:34Are you still considered a heavy-hitter out there?
06:37I didn't mean it like that.
06:39Jean, I've had a court-of-law with your finder out in the hallway.
06:43They've packed the place out.
06:45Now, I've let them know that you've had a stroke,
06:47but you're in the best hands.
06:52Ten out of ten on bedside manner.
06:56Ten out of ten on bedside manner.
06:58Thanks.
06:59Teamwork?
07:01I'd give it a six.
07:03Really?
07:04You're fighting those battles now?
07:06Calling it how I see it.
07:07Well, I need to get on with work.
07:09Yeah, sure.
07:10Just, uh, let's put the gloves down, eh?
07:12There's enough chaos around here as it is.
07:14Yes, fine.
07:15Chris is a great doctor.
07:17Amazing skills.
07:18A billionaire.
07:19Why wouldn't I be nice to him?
07:22Um...
07:24Ah, Jocelyn's case.
07:26Selena said she's fighting an MRO.
07:28Yeah.
07:29I've tried everything I can think of.
07:31I'm just worried that it's not enough.
07:33So you guys are going left field?
07:35Yep.
07:36Good thing Selena's back onside then, eh?
07:38She's really keeping you up to date, isn't she?
07:40Well, I was a bit worried when you kicked her off the case.
07:43So that's why you left me on read last night.
07:45Oh, I was busy.
07:47Uh-huh.
07:48OK, I was being lame, but come on.
07:50Selena's my sister.
07:52It's OK.
07:53I think I've managed to mend fences a bit.
07:56You really care about her opinion, eh?
07:58It's just that you care what she thinks,
08:00and I care about you.
08:02Oh, stop it.
08:04OK, I better get back to it.
08:06No, wait, wait, wait, wait.
08:12Oh, don't look now.
08:13Two beautiful people in love.
08:15So she did tell you?
08:17What?
08:18Come on.
08:19You're talking about that meeting with Esther.
08:23I'm sorry, look, I can't do this.
08:25Monique, sport was the way to go, and I don't know why,
08:27but I can't figure out where her head's at, OK?
08:29And I've already said too much, and I just feel terrible
08:31because I've cooked it so badly, you know?
08:33Not at all.
08:34I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
08:38Here we go.
08:40We'll have you sorted out in no time.
08:41Where are you taking Mrs Jacobs?
08:43Theatre.
08:44She can't be moved until Dr Grace is ready to go.
08:46Yeah, she's scrubbing in as we speak.
08:48She can't be.
08:49Hey, don't shoot the messenger.
08:50She can't have finished her tongue laceration already.
08:52Go. Go, go, go.
08:55Gee is doing it.
09:03Uh, hey.
09:06Uh, maybe we shouldn't go and get some fresh air.
09:09They need some space to work on your boy.
09:11Please.
09:12They'll let us know when he's ready.
09:15I'll be right back for you.
09:23What the hell are you doing?
09:24My job.
09:25I booked a theatre.
09:26I am doing it. It's easy.
09:28There are pieces of tooth embedded in his tongue.
09:31I know.
09:32And how do you know you've removed them all?
09:33Because I studied the x-rays.
09:35And now you're guessing.
09:36I am now suturing the laceration.
09:39This should be done in theatre.
09:41I just saved this hospital thousands of dollars
09:43and time so your vulnerable North patient can get the operation immediately.
09:48You want me to stop suturing now when I'm nearly done
09:51and cause more trauma for the kid and the family?
09:54I am the surgeon. Don't forget that.
09:56How could I?
09:58I will have those x-rays done when I'm finished here.
10:01If you could check those views and my suturing work, that would be great.
10:06I just don't understand why you keep second guessing me.
10:10I'm giving you my opinion.
10:12And your opinion trumps mine. Good to know.
10:17Yeah, I'll talk to you soon. See ya.
10:21Figured you could use this after you're all nighter.
10:23You are a lifesaver.
10:26That remains to be seen.
10:28I just spoke with your husband and he's going to bring the kids in to visit.
10:32Oh, awesome. How's she doing?
10:34Actually okay.
10:36Really?
10:37Yeah, because it surprises you.
10:39Obviously she's still crap, but she's a stable level of crap.
10:42I'll take that as a win.
10:44Maybe she's turning a corner.
10:46I hope so. Her poor body's been through hell.
10:50I was just speaking to Vili. He said that you've spoken to him.
10:54She's in VT.
10:59Charging.
11:01I'm drunk, so I've a drink on.
11:03Don't do this, Jocelyn. Not now.
11:05Clare?
11:10So, what were you eating?
11:14A burger.
11:16Let me guess, you were trying to watch TV at the same time?
11:20Yeah.
11:22Well, talk to your mum about the dentist, so you've got nothing to worry about, okay?
11:29Great bedside manner. Pretty good for a grump.
11:34So, did I pass the test?
11:37Fine suturing.
11:39Any bits of tooth stuck in there?
11:41X-rays looked clear, so well done.
11:43Thanks.
11:45How about a group hug?
11:47Yeah, let's not get carried away.
11:49I agree.
11:50The look of you two working together. Beautiful thing.
11:53If he doesn't micromanage me.
11:55I don't think I am.
11:57I think you are.
11:58Really?
11:59I've got evidence.
12:01Hey, let's go with the win. Back in your corners.
12:07I'm not micromanaging her.
12:09Yeah, you probably are.
12:11You're a surgeon, Warner. It's what you do.
12:13What's she doing next?
12:15You see what you did there?
12:17Just give her space.
12:19Wide open paddocks of space.
12:30You didn't have to reply to her immediately.
12:32Yes, I did.
12:33Why?
12:34I don't want to keep Madonna waiting.
12:36Twice.
12:37Oh, God, I'm glad I didn't have to deal with all that texting crap.
12:40Back in your day?
12:42Yeah, back in my day, sleepy smurf.
12:44I'd had a big week.
12:46Well, you sure know how to keep the party going.
12:48I'm sure you weren't far behind me, old fella.
12:50Yeah, well, you didn't miss much.
12:53Only now's realising he loves Monique.
12:55Eh?
12:56Well, I don't know if I'd go that far.
12:58You did, though. You went round there.
13:00I've been so preoccupied with Madonna, I completely forgot to ask.
13:03You made a declaration?
13:04No, I mean, did it go badly?
13:07I think I might have scared her off.
13:09I don't know what's going on.
13:10Well, communication is key.
13:12She's not really communicating.
13:13She will be, though.
13:15It might just be more in what she's not saying than what she is.
13:18Hey, fret not, my friend.
13:20If she's the one, you'll know.
13:28No toxins, can't hear any evidence of tamponade,
13:31no attention numeral, and I don't think it's another clot.
13:34What is it? What can we do?
13:35Twenty.
13:36Twenty-nine.
13:37Thirty.
13:38Rhythm check.
13:39Come on, give her some hair pull.
13:41It's hysteria.
13:44I think we have to call it.
13:45No, you can't. Not yet.
13:47She's been down 40 minutes.
13:48So we brought her back before we can do it again.
13:50Are we stopping or not?
13:52I'm sorry. She's in multi-organ failure.
13:54There's nothing else we can do.
14:01Time of death, 1642.
14:10The solution for the NPC lies that way.
14:12So you think it's a good thing that the clinic was shut down?
14:16No.
14:17You think it's okay to just lump everything on local iwi?
14:20Your problem, good luck, see you later?
14:22I'm not saying that.
14:23Then what are you saying?
14:24Local iwi is your iwi.
14:26I once had a connection to some kaumatua with Te Kahui, or Ote Maori.
14:32Yeah, did you get a medal for that?
14:34The connection is broken now.
14:36But it's your bloodline through TK.
14:39You don't need to tell me who I am.
14:41Okay, I don't mean to do that, but your father is still highly regarded.
14:45My last name is not Samuels.
14:47Right.
14:48And I didn't grow up on the marae, going to Kohanga with Nan,
14:52going diving for para on the weekend, okay?
14:54I understand.
14:55Your upbringing was unique.
14:57Just stop talking, Chris.
15:08Got something to say too?
15:10Actually, I told him to give you some space.
15:18But no one listens to me around here, do they?
15:24No.
15:34Word salad, feelings, meetings with Esther?
15:37What?
15:38Exactly.
15:39I cannot keep lying for you, Mon.
15:40It's making me all jumbled up and it's making me stupid and I hate it.
15:42Okay, I am sorry.
15:43As it so happens, I've had a really bad day too.
15:45Oh, because a man told you that he loved you?
15:47Don't at me.
15:48I know how it sounds.
15:49Okay, I'm being real.
15:50His timing was not good.
15:51And you're worried about things getting more serious and then he shows up here and he says that.
15:54You're scared things are going to fall apart and I tell you what, they probably will.
15:58What?
15:59I'm not being funny.
16:00I'm not being a bitch.
16:01I'm just going to tell you, okay?
16:02You need to go talk to him right now because he's not going to hang around here forever.
16:04So what, you don't think he thought I just needed to pee?
16:07No.
16:08Get real.
16:09Put us all out of our misery, okay?
16:10Thumbs up or thumbs down.
16:12That man needs to know.
16:17What were you doing talking to Julia about iwi politics?
16:20I was trying to help.
16:22Well, it's complicated enough for TK, let alone his daughter.
16:24Yeah, I understand.
16:26I won't do it again.
16:28Aside from that, I'm happy with the way ED is running.
16:32Put me back in theatre.
16:34No.
16:36I'm not wanted in ED.
16:38That's not true.
16:40My opinion is constantly dismissed.
16:43Gia respects your skills and your experience.
16:46She just doesn't respect me as a person and I don't mind.
16:49Just put me back in the operating room.
16:51You're not ready.
16:53The level of responsibility...
16:55I can handle it.
16:56The balance of clinical analysis versus compassion for patients and family.
17:01My bedside manner has improved.
17:04You're still on probation.
17:06For how much longer?
17:07Until I say so.
17:09Not there yet.
17:10I'm sorry.
17:13We did everything we could.
17:15But the infection, it overwhelmed it.
17:19I'm so sorry for your loss.
17:21We'll give you some alone time with Jocelyn now.
17:35They're poor men and their kids.
17:37I should have listened to you.
17:39I should have been there.
17:41I should have listened to you.
17:42I should have done better by her when I had the chance.
17:44Yeah, you should have.
17:46But even if you had, she probably still would have died.
17:50We were fighting a losing battle with that bug.
17:54And you did everything you could for her.
17:56And that means something.
17:58Sure as hell doesn't feel like it.
18:00Not right now.
18:02But I bet you'll never forget Jocelyn.
18:04Damn right.
18:05And you'll probably never forget me hauling you over the coals either.
18:08No, I didn't love it, but I get it.
18:10And it was hard because I actually care what you think.
18:13Well, you have to say that because you're dating my little brother.
18:16No, really.
18:17You're not afraid to stand your ground and speak up for others when they can't do it for themselves.
18:21Most people would call that a smartass.
18:24Well, they'd be wrong.
18:25Jocelyn was lucky to have you in her corner.
18:28Thanks, Val.
18:29That means a lot.
18:32Yeah.
18:37Incoming, head injury, make room.
18:38Get Mrs. Peterson up to theatre, please.
18:40The theatres are full.
18:41Tell those surgeons this is urgent.
18:43She could lose her leg if they don't hurry up.
18:45I've told them.
18:46Put her in a side room and stay with her, okay?
18:49Clear where you need to be.
18:52Okay, here we go.
18:53Here we go.
18:55Gunshot wound to the abdomen.
18:56Wait, what happened to the head injury patient?
18:58Still coming.
18:59Visual looks 25.
19:01Get bilateral IVs, two 16s if you can.
19:04Where did he come from?
19:05Dunn, right outside the front door.
19:07Okay, take your hands off.
19:08It's gonna hose.
19:09I'm ready.
19:10Take your hands off.
19:14Hang a unit of O negative.
19:16Call the blood bank to activate the MTP.
19:20I'm sorry, babe.
19:21Me too.
19:22How's Lingo doing?
19:24Upset, understandably.
19:26She's a good person, your sister.
19:30Are my hands burning?
19:32I'm sorry to hear about Jocelyn.
19:34Thanks.
19:35You did all you could.
19:36She was always fighting an uphill battle,
19:38which was complicated by her BMI.
19:40Actually, I'm not sure that her BMI was a factor.
19:43It didn't help, though.
19:44Jocelyn was fighting a multi-resistant organism,
19:46which made all of our treatment attempts futile.
19:49Her BMI, it was inconsequential.
19:51Right.
19:52I think maybe we need to move with the times.
19:54That's right, Drew, the BMI's trash.
19:59Anyway, your new girlfriend, she's okay, I guess.
20:04She's better than okay, I reckon.
20:09Thanks for coming.
20:10It was good of you to see me in person.
20:12Well, communication is important.
20:14I agree.
20:15Do you want a wine?
20:17It's okay.
20:18I think we should just talk.
20:19Yeah, me too.
20:20That's why I've been drinking.
20:23At the end of the day, I think it's good that you said what you said.
20:28So you admit it.
20:29You did hear me.
20:30You don't feel the same as I do.
20:32That's fine.
20:33I don't mean to pressure you.
20:35No, it's not like that.
20:38I don't feel pressured.
20:40Still, I shouldn't have sprung it on you like that.
20:44I did think we were really good together.
20:47I think we're good together too.
20:50Unless I've ruined it.
20:52No, you haven't ruined it.
20:55And I'll pull right back.
20:57I'll pull right back.
20:58You set the pace.
20:59Okay, great.
21:01I'll set the pace.
21:03So here goes.
21:06I love you.
21:09What?
21:11Don't act like you didn't hear me.
21:13Okay, so what happens now?
21:16Do I slam the door in your face?
21:18Yep.
21:19Yep.
21:21Or this?
21:27Okay, this.
21:28I choose this.
21:31Update on your head injury?
21:33Waiting on a CT.
21:34Surgeons will send someone in about half an hour.
21:36This guy doesn't have half an hour.
21:38Is he stable?
21:39Doesn't look like it.
21:40Oh, come on.
21:42For God's...
21:43At least you're not answering.
21:45Chris, this is Gia.
21:46We have a gunshot patient in AD.
21:48We need you back here now.
21:49Wait, where is he?
21:50Hiding.
21:51Running away.
21:52He's crashing.
21:53BP 80 over 50.
21:54I knew it.
21:55We need to get the bullet out.
21:56Repair any vessels that's damaged.
21:58And that's what I'm going to do.
22:00That's like breaking 50 million rules, but I'm here for it.
22:03We need more O negative.
22:05Sage, grab a scalpel.
22:07And something to clean the wound.
22:11Okay, relieving the pressure now.
22:13Clean out the wound.
22:19King incision now.
22:22What the hell are you doing, Gia?
