What was the worst day of your life?

After Molly’s first day as a medical intern, she felt defeated. She first showed up at the hospital determined and happy. But her boss quickly let her know that she was naive, stubborn, and utterly misguided about her role. She wasn’t gonna save lives and be proud of herself. She needed to be quiet, do exactly as she was told, and not stand in the way of “real doctors”. Molly didn’t go to work after that. She sat on her bed, crying, burying her dream of helping people.

She was surprised to get a call from her boss, who is also her estranged father. The guy was stern and unpleasantly honest. But this gave her the motivation to go back to the hospital. And the first patient after Molly’s return was a woman whose face got paralyzed seemingly for no reason.

00:00All right, the most obvious causes of diabetes.
00:06You.
00:08Obvious signs of diabetes! What is it?
00:11You're fired! Get out of here, man!
00:13Get out of here! Move!
00:14Leave your folder and file with the front desk!
00:16Get out of here!
00:18You. Same question.
00:20Severe thirst, dry mouth, frequent urination, possible dehydration.
00:25All right.
00:27Well, obviously you went to college.
00:29Although you don't look like it.
00:31Type 1 diabetes.
00:33You.
00:34Michel Johnson.
00:35Type 1 diabetes is a lifelong disease
00:38that causes the body to produce antibodies
00:41that destroy cells in the pancreas.
00:44All right. And what treatment would you recommend, Palmer?
00:48Dr. Palmer treatment!
00:50I can't hear you!
00:51It's a simple question, Palmer!
00:53She is absent, sir.
00:54What do you mean she's absent? Where is she?
00:58Yeah, well, she didn't come.
01:03She didn't come?
01:09All right, guys, the rounds are over.
01:15Go to the head nurse. She'll assign your patients.
01:17All right?
01:20Fired, just like that.
01:24No way.
01:49No way.
01:51No.
01:54No.
02:20You didn't come to work today.
02:22Yeah?
02:24And I never will.
02:47Ollie, just give me two minutes, OK? Just two minutes.
02:51What time is it?
02:5310.54.
02:56At 10.56, I hang up.
02:59OK.
03:00How's your mom?
03:05She passed away a year ago.
03:11Why do you care?
03:18You know what, Molly?
03:20Actually, I don't.
03:23But I just got one question for you.
03:26Did you become a doctor to help people?
03:30Or did you do it to impress me?
03:33If you did, then you're wasting your time, because I'm a cynical old nobody, and I'm not worth it.
03:41Did you actually spend seven years of your life, seven hard years, studying just to come to me and tell me you're my daughter?
03:51Because if you did, then I'm hanging up right now.
03:54Right now.
04:06Molly, look.
04:09I'll never be your father.
04:12But if there's a place deep in your heart, if there's a place that still wants to be a doctor and help people,
04:20help save hundreds of thousands of lives,
04:23then, Molly, I'm ready to help you any way I can.
04:30Molly, my two minutes are up.
04:33And you've got four minutes to get to your bus to get to the hospital.
04:49As I can see, you have a mild form of tonsillitis.
04:53So we'll run some tests, and you'll be back on your feet in no time, Mr. Dennis.
04:58Thank you, dear.
05:00I've been to this hospital many times, but I have never met such kind and sensitive doctors.
05:08It's my pleasure.
05:11Hey!
05:13How am I lucky to have you here?
05:16Hi, I'm Albert.
05:20Albert Dabowski.
05:22We never got a chance to properly introduce ourselves to each other.
05:27Molly Palmer.
05:29Nice to meet you, Molly. Molly Palmer.
05:33I need your help.
05:35I have a patient, and she froze.
05:38Froze?
05:39Yeah, froze. Just like...
05:41Albert, she's not frozen.
05:42Her facial muscles are probably paralyzed, so let's go and see what's wrong with her.
05:48Right, right. Thank you.
05:54Good afternoon, Mrs. Finkel.
05:56Hi, again.
05:58Hi. I wish I could smile at you, but I can't.
06:02We're here to help you.
06:07Albert.
06:12Albert, why don't you get us some coffee?
06:16Great idea, yeah.
06:21Thank you. Thank you, Albert.
06:23Yeah, coffee.
06:25Right.
06:26We'll bring the coffee.
06:28Facial paralysis is a rather complicated and rare symptom.
06:33Tell me, have you ever had diabetes before?
06:38No, never.
06:40Any infection diseases?
06:41No.
06:43We're going to run a number of tests. Good?
06:46Good.
06:50Let me look at your eyes.
07:00Does it hurt when I touch your temple?
07:02No.
07:03Okay, I'll look at it again, but more gentle.
07:07No, no need. It was just a migraine flare, okay?
07:11Migraine. Why didn't you tell me?
07:15And if it's migraine, it's much longer than a few seconds.
07:19Sorry, I got the name wrong.
07:21You're the doctor here, not me.
07:23I'd like to rest now, if you don't mind.
07:26Sure.
07:34Just a pillow.
07:37Okay.
07:40We'll check everything. Don't worry, okay?
08:10Albert! There you are.
08:12Thank you. It's hard to make an exact diagnosis right now.
08:15I think she's hiding something.
08:17She definitely needs an X-ray. Will you help me?
08:20Yeah, of course I'll help you.
08:27Okay, don't worry, I'll clean it up.
08:30Okay, sign Mrs. Pinkgrave up for an X-ray.
08:36For an X-ray?
08:38Yeah.
08:40Pinkgrave, right?
08:41Yeah, okay?
08:42Yeah, sure.
08:43See you.
08:46Molly.
08:52It's okay.
08:54Yeah.
09:00Why are you so stubbornly uncooperative with me and always keep fighting with me?
09:05Why would you want to do that?
09:07Because there's nothing more important to you than money, that's why.
09:10For the hospital. It's money for the hospital. Our hospital.
09:14What, are you trying to tell me that none of that money ends up in your pocket, Adonald?
09:17Forgive me if I have trouble believing that.
09:22Mrs. Pinkgrave, she really needs help.
09:26Well, yeah. That's why she's here. She's in the hospital.
09:29By the way, this is Dr. Donald Wright. He's our beloved and respected director.
09:36Don't listen to him. In the last 30 years, his heart has turned to solid stone.
09:42So how may we help you?
09:45Wait, wait, wait, wait. Are you a newbie?
09:49I'm Molly Palmer. I'm an intern.
09:52Palmer?
09:55Do you have any relatives working in the hospital?
09:59Um, actually...
10:02Stephanie. Stephanie Palmer.
10:06Right?
10:08That's my mother.
10:10Well, I hope you turn out to be just like her. She was a good doctor.
10:15Okay, so what's the deal?
10:18Her name is Mrs. Pinkgrave. And she is obviously hiding something.
10:23She has a facial palsy and her husband has a bunched hand.
10:28I think she's caring for him.
10:31It looks like a classic case of domestic abuse.
10:34And he wants to take her home. And we have to stop him.
10:38Yeah. Yeah, I agree.
10:40Pinkgrave.
10:42Her husband is John Pinkgrave.
10:44Right.
10:47Unbelievable. I played golf with him the other day.
10:52Excellent man. He's very rich. And he's very influential, by the way.
10:56I didn't know about his status, but should that change?
11:00Does she want to be discharged?
11:04She agrees with her husband.
11:08We can't hold patients in the hospital by force. Let her pay. Let her pay. And get out.
11:15You can't do that, right? You can't!
11:17Look, Mr. Pinkgrave is a wealthy businessman.
11:22And he's got a lot of connections that he can use to cut off the oxygen from the hospital.
11:27Our hospital.
11:30You know how many people work in the hospital?
11:33You want to put them on a job? You want to put them on the street?
11:36God, you surprise me. You always forget things during the day.
11:40Could this be one of those things?
11:42And that's not a question.
11:52Just do what he says.
11:55Do what he says! We can't risk the entire hospital.
11:58Just do it.
12:00I'm glad you got that all right. Think about what I said.
12:06I knew you, young lady. Get some rest.
12:09Excessive activity for a doctor is bad.
12:22Poly…polychrony…
12:25Albert, I need your help.
12:28Yeah?
12:30I need you to distract Mrs. Pinkgrave's husband.
12:33That Russian mobster?
12:36Yeah.
12:39Can you handle it?
12:46I'm sorry.
12:47Can you handle it?
12:52Sure. Yeah, sure.
12:54Thanks.
12:58I'm screwed.
13:03Hello?
13:05Police?
13:18Hey.
13:20You better not add sugar to it.
13:22It's already too sweet.
13:27It's your husband, isn't it?
13:29What?
13:31Your face.
13:33It's paralyzed because of your husband.
13:36Facial nerve palsy can be caused by various factors,
13:40including a fracture of a tongue.
13:42And because…
13:44By various factors, including a fracture of a temporal bone.
13:49Why?
13:51Why are you covering for him?
13:53Don't say that about my husband. He's…
13:55Don't go home with him.
13:57Stay here. Stay here in the hospital.
14:00There's no one to protect me.
14:02We'll protect you.
14:04You stay here.
14:06Stay here.
14:08Listen.
14:10If you don't stand up for yourself right now,
14:13you will stay with that,
14:15with that look of fear,
14:18for the rest of your life.
14:33I'm actually next in line.
14:37Yeah.
14:43What a day!
14:45What a day!
14:51Got it. I got the coin.
14:54Right here.
14:56What did you do to the machine?
14:58Nothing.
15:00It happens.
15:02It just needs a good punch from time to time.
15:09You know, why don't you try?
15:11You're so much stronger than me.
15:13I mean, look at your muscles. They're huge.
15:16Can I touch your muscles?
15:18How about I buy you a coffee?
15:20There's a coffee shop down the road.
15:22I can grab you some coffee.
15:24And you don't even have to punch me for that.
15:26Get out of my way, little weasel.
15:28I definitely prefer to stand here.
15:32What the hell is going on here?
15:34How is that for a distraction?
15:36Oh my God, Wally. Oh my God.
15:38Do you know who I am? I'll enter this hospital at any time.
15:40You and your little friend are finished.
15:43You can't intimidate us.
15:45You put her up to this.
15:47You gotta be sorry for that.
15:49Believe me, when I'll take you home, you're gonna be real sorry.
15:52Shut up!
15:54You weren't gonna get away from me.
15:57Remember that.
15:59I'll do with you what I want and when I want.
16:00Because you're my favorite toy.
16:02You understand me?
16:05We've heard enough.
16:07Johns.
16:10John Kinger, you're under arrest for assault and domestic abuse.
16:14You understand me?
16:16You got it all wrong. This is a joke.
16:18She's my wife. I could never hurt her.
16:20Come on, let's take the cuff off and we'll talk about it.
16:22He has the right to remain silent.
16:24Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law.
16:26Take him away.
16:31Come on.
16:41Are you okay?
16:43I don't know.
16:48How did you do it?
16:50I just called the police on my way to the room.
16:53They entered an emergency exit, so nobody knows.
16:57Nobody knows.
16:59Wow.
17:09You did it.
17:11I guess I have you to thank for the journalist ripping my phone.
17:15Um.
17:17We just wanted to help.
17:20Help? With that kind of abuse of authority, you could have been dismissed, Mrs. Palmer.
17:25Well, actually, I told them to do it.
17:28If it makes any difference.
17:31Really?
17:33Yeah.
17:36Well, honor and praise to all of you for saving a patient and catching a predator.
17:45But be careful next time.
17:48You have a good evening.
17:51All right?
17:53Thanks, guys.
17:55I offer you peace in your chosen world.
18:11So, what now?
18:14Home?
18:16I'm on the graveyard shift.
18:18For being late this morning.
18:21Oh, it's a joke.
18:25It's funny.
18:55No.
18:57No.
19:25No.
19:27No.
19:29No.
19:30No.
19:31No.
19:32No.
