"CAUTION AND RECKLESSNESS" "Julie?" "Nothing to say?" "It's just temporary." "Just till I get settled in my new job." "Your aunt will take good care of you." "Sad?" "Mad at me?" "I won't scold you, 'cause you miss your mom." "I'm not that mean." "Huh?" "Julie, say something!" " Yes?" " What're you doing?" "I'm outside my father's place." "Nothing to say?" " You can't do it." "Don't want to confirm your opinion of him." "Besides, what'll it get you?" "Except pain." "I'm not bothering anyone!" "I'm good here!" "I can spend the day in my car!" "What's the problem?" "Go home, Pierre." "Enough." " No one's sick here; not me, anyway." "Mind your own business, you charlatan." " I'm responsible for the trauma unit's mental well-being." "That's what I'm paid for." "You know we're right." "It's just your pride." "You're tired, worn out." "You're not really an addict." "It's exhaustion." "He wants to stay on hospital grounds." "Kick me out." "Well... try." "Leave, Pierre." "Come back next week, if you're fit to operate." "I'm ready!" "I want a blood test." "The only doctor who can claim to actually manipulate the human soul is a neurosurgeon." "What you'll never learn in thoracic or abdominal surgery is that a human personality weighs about 1,300 grams." "There's a 181-gram difference between the male and female brain." "Broca." "An 1861 study?" "Brain size has nothing to do with intelligence." " I was referring to the soul's weight." " Twenty-one grams." "Focus." "Who can name the factors of a laminectomy with removal of a subdural tumour?" "Patient's biological age and physiological condition." " That's it?" " Tumour characteristics, site, size, ostensible nature, neurological impact." "We're performing ever-more stereotactic biopsies." "Provides us with the histology before surgery." "Why do it before?" "Reduces the number of surgical resections performed for the purpose of histopathological diagnosis." "Perfect." "Now, let's see how brave you are." "Who's up?" "It's just skin." "Blood, blood vessels, nerves, grey matter..." "A tumour." "Me." "Tuck in your elbows." "Pierre's filling an emotional void." "No idea what." "Want some?" "I'm sparing him by blaming it on exhaustion, but the trouble isn't overwork." "He seems disappointed in himself." "Yet with his gift..." "Well." "Late again?" "My seminars are obviously trivial." " Neurology internship." "To learn the hazards of the trade." "Yeah." "Hazards." "See, residents learn through contact with you." "I'm not just talking physical contact." " Bus vs. semi: 20 injured." "Ambulances are pulling up." "Seminar's cancelled." "Everyone to the ER." "Stat." "I don't know." "Just got to the hospital." "No." "Haven't seen him yet." "Don't wanna spend the rest of my life with a man who's never around." "Jeez!" "Who's sister are you anyway?" "Ma'am?" "No cellphones allowed." "Gotta go." "Yes, I'll let you know." "Right." "Bye." " Two more on the way." " Nine patients for the OR." "The rest'll have to wait." " We don't have the capacity." " No hospital will take the overload." " We'll show them how good we are." "We've seen worse." "Tough, yes, but fortune favours the bold." " I need more surgeons." " We'll call Meilleur back." " Actually" " We won't turn them away." "We both know Pierre isn't up to it." "Life trumps discipline." "It's not just about discipline, but avoiding a serious mistake." "Meanwhile, patients are waiting." "The mistake would be killing them during transfer." "Call Meilleur back." "Okay." "You have residents?" "Sorry." "I'm not telling the families their loved ones are being entrusted to residents!" "Tell them we have excellent young surgeons, and everything's under control." "Call 302." "I'm asking you to be good." "You can do it." "Code orange." "Can someone help me?" " What's the scoop?" " He's the driver." " Don't worry." " My husband's not responsible?" "He was driving the bus?" "It's his job." " A car cut them off." " Timing couldn't be worse." "It's never a good time" "I don't love him anymore!" "I'm done!" "Good." "Stop here." "Caroline's first on the front lines, but never holds out." " Better than losing the patient." " Shut up." "You're bothering me." "Good." "Good work." "Bus accident." "Residents will operate." "Chiefs will supervise." "Martine, OR 2." "Sophie: 4." "Etienne: 5." " Let's transfer him." " Caroline and Christelle aren't here?" " No, but... we're operating?" " Shouldn't we review the case first?" " Who decided this?" " Me." "Be ready to cut in 5 minutes." " Not your call." " Yes." "Not your style." "Too risky." "It's a calculated risk." "It's Diane." "Two for you." "What's wrong?" "Dunno." "I've got, like  retrosternal pain." "Chest pain." "I feel short of breath." "Do what you have to." "I'll be back." "It's my heart." "It's psychosomatic, man." "Screw you!" "It's not working." " Machine isn't the problem." " Got an anticoagulated patient in 6." " Vascular?" "No." "I ordered a fresh blood transfusion with ketamine." "Administer desmopressin, 0.3 micrograms per kilo." "Excuse me." "You're not operating?" "Yes." "I was just getting a head start." "For Dr. Lemieux." "She's the one..." "Nicolas?" "What's this about getting a head start?" "I didn't say anything, okay?" "But he was having a heart attack." "So I gave him a courage transplant." "I saved him." "Next time you waste time on BS, you're done." "Clear?" " Yeah, yeah." " Is that clear?" "Yes, Doctor." "Go on, scram." "Come in." "Can't help you." "Have a seat." "I told her." "I asked her to reinstate you." " She'd rather trust residents." "You almost passed out during surgery." "So you'll do nothing?" "What would you have me do?" "Take a week off." "Play it cool." "Y'know... she wants a blood test to humiliate me." "Give it to her." "You're not being targeted." "She's sending the residents a clear message." "I'm ready to operate and she needs me." "Her decision." "Any new developments?" "Dr. Lemieux's operating on the gentleman." "Everything's proceeding normally." "Excuse us - won't be long." "Come here." "She doesn't love him anymore." "She won't be heartbroken." " She's here." "That's something." " She wants a divorce." " I know." " What do I do?" "Send her home?" "Wait and see how the surgery goes." "Julie and residents are operating now, okay?" "There are people around." " Will you tell her?" " You were told to go home." "I'm just walking around." "You're not resting - you're looking for trouble." "I'll leave you to your surgical egos." "People are waiting." "BS." "Families should know the chief and residents are operating." "We both know it." "Will you tell them?" "You'll do the laminectomy." " Solo?" " Can't do it?" " Yes, fine." " Okay, then." "I was right." "I knew it was you." "Didn't want to call Meilleur back?" "And butt heads with your wife?" "I'm daring, not reckless." " We'll discuss it later." " What?" "Administration's interference in medical decisions." " She could've refused." " You know what she's going through." "Her problems." "Lay off her." "She knows her job." "Excuse me." "We had 2 critical patients in the OR." "You took them." "Could've let the residents handle it so they could learn." "Too soon." "Too hard." "Caroline and Etienne cracked." "If I needed surgery here, I'd want it to be you." "But if I knew I was going to die, I'd avoid you like the plague, lest you try too hard." "People think we grow a thicker skin, but  the older I get, the harder it is to face death." "All doctors experience that." "At least, the humbler ones." "Driver's wife is here." "I need some air." "Mathieu's not done." "Buy you a drink across the street?" "Thanks." "I'm not thirsty." "Eat." "They're homemade." "Afraid I'll poison you?" "That's not it." "When your dad asked me to look after you, I took a chance." "I thought you were willing." "It's a two-way street, huh?" "Maybe you think you're the only one trying, but I am too." "I want my mom." "I understand." "We all miss her." "I'm not hungry." "Pretend." "Be a good girl." "I'm not hungry." "Told her?" " No, I was about to." " It's my job." "You're tired." "I'll do it." "I lost her husband." "My responsibility." "This time, it's mine." "My pride may have cost a patient his life." "I put authority before duty." "Took on too much." "Pierre couldn't have saved him." "What do you know?" "Thought you were off." "Who told you that?" "How'd it go?" "I didn't operate." "I  screwed up with a patient in neurology and  didn't complete the surgery." "I was KO'ed for the bus." "You should try teaching." "I'll complete my residency first." "Not that." "Preschool, grade-school teacher." "Medicine isn't for wimps." "Stop bemoaning your lot;" "go help your colleagues." "What a skank." "Why?" "Sleeping with her?" "Morally speaking." "How she treats people." "Gotta let off steam somehow." "Don't have time for this." "Sign." "Takes 3 seconds." "I need time to think." "You like Sophie Léveillée?" "Don't care either way." "Either you're with us, or with her." "There's something feminine about you." "Feminine?" "You have a feminine side." "Christelle has average talent, is relatively attractive and has an outstanding personality." "What would you do in her shoes?" "When you don't measure up, you open fire and belittle others." "So if you lose focus because of a gossip's scheming, it's because you have a feminine side." "Get her fired on what grounds?" "Mental-health problems." "It's right here." "How will we justify this?" "We let the chiefs make the diagnosis." "We just light the fire." "There are 2 secrets to success:" "rising above the herd, or insuring that others don't." "We're ER doctors." "We don't seek glory, the spotlight." "We're perfectly happy helping surgeons get their picture in the paper." "We make split-second decisions." "Surgeons make 2 a day." "And that's just fine." "They're Superman, we're Clark Kent." "They're Batman, we're Bruce Wayne." "There, go to bed 7 - some guy's puking his guts out." "Maybe he felt it, I don't know." "Your husband's not responsible for the accident." "The other car" " You must be right." "He's never been responsible." " Mrs. Comeau" " Don't bother." "I don't care." "It's anger." "Just as I was finally free, he gets himself killed." "How could he do this to me?" "I'll always be his widow." "I sometimes wonder..." "What?" "What I'm gonna do." "That's no way to split up." "Death settles nothing." "I needed time." "Someone will see you about the formalities." "Sure you're okay?" "No problem." "Going to handle everything?" "A bus, Julie!" "Still here?" "You'll let residents operate on the next ones, too?" "You're playing with fire;" "you know the risks, but do it anyway." "You're taking unnecessary risks." "Why?" " You're the risk." "That's why you're suspended." "I'm the risk..." "You always do everything right." "Always in control." "Of course." "Last one." "Then we're done." "Trauma caused by sudden deceleration of the vehicle, like the others." "Aorta could rupture anytime." "I examined the scan." "Major head trauma with probable rupture of the aortic arch." "What now?" "Insert a stent, or operate?" "Hard to insert a stent in this case." "I won't be able to attach it." "What's it gonna be?" " What are you doing?" " The dog!" "Don't touch him." "You'll catch something." "Is he gonna die?" "It happens." "Come." "Can I stay with him a little longer?" "If you stay off the street, fine." "Five minutes." "No, Julie, I disagree." "I'd rather try than leave it up to fate." "Waiting's best, considering the patient's age and physiological data." "You've lost 2 already." "Isn't that enough?" "Anyway, I've already called in Meilleur." "Meilleur?" "No." "You can very well opera" " Look." "Go." "Prep the patient's head." "I wonder who'll win - you or Dr. Lemieux?" "Mind your own business." "Yeah." "Ultimately, you chiefs are as delicate as we are, huh?" " What are you trying to prove?" " Me?" "Nothing." "Your job's proof enough." "You set an example for us." "It's not always edifying, but..." "Look, I'm no example as a person." "Anyway, it doesn't count." "Try to emulate me in the OR, never mind the rest." "Lemieux caved." "She needed him for vascular surgery." "Big mistake." "He'll be 10 times worse now." "Not with the others?" "Let's eat?" "The heart isn't contracting well." "Let's make some room." "Okay." "The bicarbonate worked." "Well done, Pierre." "What's the priority when a hemorrhaging heart isn't contracting normally?" "She's not your junior, but your boss." "Stop the bleeding by suturing the muscle." "And how do you restart it?" "Not with epinephrine." "It's too difficult to restart a heart after a large suture." "That was for your edification, not hers, "junior."" "You're here to see us screw up." "Didn't even back her." "Weren't you on sick leave?" "Guess not, 'cause it looks like you need me to save your hides." "Marie, put on some music." "Antoine?" " Pierre's in the OR with Julie." " What?" "!" " I just saw him." " No one told me?" "Dirty looks, drama, wrist-slitting, then operating together?" "Nature abhors a vacuum." "Pierre filled his." "You don't listen, you do as you please." "No wonder hospitals are unmanageable." " Poor little defenceless thing." "I don't know what's wrong with Pierre." "All I can say is," "Julie took the high road." "Ultimately, the hospital's doing okay." "There's no virtue in having others take risks." "Julie couldn't take them all." "You put her in an untenable position." "She took the most urgent cases to spare the residents." "What's with you?" "She's not your daughter." "She suspended Meilleur." " Why so defensive?" " You're attacking me." " Attacking you?" "I abandoned my practice because you wanted us to break new ground in traumatology by listening to doctors." "Listening, but not to the detriment of patients." "Maybe I was wrong to trust you." "The accident's unfortunate, we mourn their deaths;" "but we just proved we're top-notch." "That's all people will remember." "I have faith in Julie." "Our reputation will benefit." "Word will spread." "Thanks to you, no doubt." "I've got the head of the trauma unit to pick up, and residents to whom I must explain our decisions." "Tell them:" "Can't make an omelet without breaking eggs." " It's not so bad." " Smart." "You've always been smarter than me." "No need to fight over headaches." "So drop it." "I'm tired." "I'm not sleeping well." "Not at all, actually." "An MRI will take, what, 15 minutes?" "It's been that way since I was 13." "It's my period." "Why are you sleeping badly?" "Meilleur, the residents..." "Making the decisions I have lately isn't pleasant." "Worst part may be arguing with you about how to save a patient." "Me?" "Not Meilleur?" "Fine, it's me." "I'm giving you headaches." "Sometimes, yes." "Not sitting down?" "Waiting for an invitation." " Don't ever do that to me again." " Or else?" "I can work elsewhere." "Do you have what you want?" "I mean personally, as a woman?" "One doesn't confide in one's boss, I understand." " Not the boss, the woman." " The woman?" "The person, if you prefer." "You appear strong, but lack self-confidence." "It shows." "I was playing nice." " If you say so." "Your reputation's at odds with your nature." "I hardly know you, mind you." "I mean your past, your childhood  how you became a surgeon." "Why, especially." "You know our story." "Sophie, her father, all that." "You must think I'm making excuses." "Yet it's strictly professional." "I want to know how much I can count on you when it really matters." "Didn't get your answer yesterday?" "Actually, I want to know, basically, when you're going to crack." "They all crack." "You were wrong to cave in to Meilleur." "Big mistake." "Excuse me?" "Could've managed on your own." "What, I'm too outspoken?" "I know what they'll say." "That you shouldn't have reinstated me." "They're wrong." "Your attitude toward Mathieu says otherwise." "Admit it - he kind of asked for it." "Anyway  I'm leaving." "Where to?" "Away." "To rest." "I'll call you when I'm ready." "With my blood test." "Thanks for saving my ass." "I know it's not very noble, but  I needed to save face." "Which isn't to say I don't have problems." "That's it." "I'll be in touch?" "I'll make you better, boy." "It won't hurt anymore." "All better." "Yes, Minister." "No, it wasn't easy, but..." "Right." "Thanks again." "Bye." "Not at your seminar?" "It's over." "You know about Dr. Meilleur?" "He's leaving, finally." "You heard?" "There are no secrets in a hospital." "Except for patient files." "Know why he's leaving?" "Must have his reasons." "See, in life, one mustn't be afraid to take on daunting tasks." "Let that be a lesson." "Julie's the boss." "Meilleur's proof of that, to you and the other students." "I didn't come here to discuss him." "I'm listening." "Did Dad commit suicide because of you?" "Ten, 1 1 , 12..." "Okay, 16 have signed." "Forget Lanoue." "He's a head case." "Go on." "It won't kill you." "Yeah." "Okay!" "Here." "Take it." "Forget it." "A sighing heart is never contented." "Spare me your clichés." "You look happy." "Unbelievable." "A, Julie's health;" "B, your relationship;" "C, Meilleur;" "D, your stock portfolio." "E, all of the above?" "If I tell you, will you shut up?" "You know me." "Sometimes I miss our solidarity." "Seems easier when we stick together." "I can't take it anymore." "There's no cure for genetics, Sophie." "Unfortunately." "I could move to another hospital." "Another country." "Anyway, no one wants me." "No one wants you?" "You hurt me worst of all." "Residents' dirty tricks are nothing." "Your image is stuck in my head like a chronic disease." "Your image is stuck in my head like a chronic disease." "Hi, Dad." "Subtitling and Translation:" "D. Gauthier, CNST, Montreal" "Guillaume Martel, 19, no history of major medical problems." " Notified neuro-ophthalmology?" " Done." " Family's been notified?" " Not yet." " Drugs?" "Alcohol?" "Any substance?" " Not as far as we know." "He was intubated - choking on his own vomit." " So he was eating." " Glass."
