"Blunt force trauma leads to internal hemorrhaging." "(Wayne) Is she gonna be okay?" " I'm gonna do a F.A.S.T." " All right, let's get central lines insert, flooding her with everything." "Get her a tetanus booster and an I.V. of antibiotics." "What happened to her, Wayne?" "(grunts) She was in the garden, and I heard her scream." "You gotta make her okay."

"Abigail!" "Abigail, honey, I'm sorry!" "(groaning) I'm so sorry." "Charlie, are you okay?" "Yeah." "Okay, Wayne, you've got an ipsilateral fracture of the clavicle and scapular neck... otherwise known as floating shoulder." "You know what, doc?" "I don't care." "When can I see Abigail?" "Um, well, she's going to be busy in surgery for a while, but when she's done," " I can let you know." " It's all my fault." "I mean, Abigail's from the city." "She's only out there because of me." "I was supposed to be protecting her." "(clears throat)" "Listen, um, I understand that you feel responsible." "But, um... a little difficult seeing something like that coming, right?" "I don't blame the bear." "I blame myself." "If you corner an animal, it's just gonna defend itself." "That's just the chance you take when you live in the bush." "So why live in the bush?"

" No." "But I was thinking, try a different obstetrician, maybe... maybe a woman." "You know?" "Tamara, could you pass me that file?" "What, is it because you find him so devilishly handsome?" " Hilarious." " Am I right?" "(chuckles) No, you're not right." "Um, I was thinking we, uh, go with Dr. Davis." "What, you mean lazy Lana from your med school class?" "She's my friend." "Yeah, but Dr. Kalfas is an actual obstetrician, and Lana Davis is just a resident." "(chuckles) And she only got through med school by cheating off your tests." "Well, I like her." "So..." "You... okay?" "Six months ago your lung function was at 65%." "Now you're down to 47%." "What do you think it's gonna be next month?" "So I'll get an oxygen tank."

"Kai, I have done 23 of these kyphosis surgeries." "Every one of these patients is walking tall now, okay?" "Well, maybe I'm just learning to accept myself for who I am..." " Hunchback and all." " All right." "The fact that you're using a pejorative like "hunchback"" "suggests to me you might not be entirely happy." "I would rather be a hunchback than a quadriplegic." "Also, women kind of, uh, kind of dig my imperfection." "Dude, we're dudes." "Okay, by definition we're entirely imperfect." "Listen..." "I'm offering you a straighter spine." "I'm not getting the operation." "I'm sorry." "Okay." "(door slams in distance)" "She also has very beautiful eyes." "See, now you're just being cruel." "I guess you're more of a leg man, right?" "Look, you're not the one that might die up there" " on the operating table." " Is that what you're afraid of, Kai..." " dying?" " No, I'm not... no." "Death is not feared by those who have lived wisely." "I get it, man." "You're terrified of... anesthesia, of incision, of quadriplegia." "I mean, you know what?" "Most of all, I think that you are just afraid of change." "For you... (sighs) kyphosis has become more like, uh, a shield, like-like a place to hide." "You know?" "Here's the truth..." "If you don't have the surgery, you're gonna suffocate, Kai." "(sighs) (cell phone buzzes)" "It's..." "The time is now." "All right, if I do this..." "Will you let me do one thing for you?" " Li... uh, what?" " No-no-no." "You don't get to ask "what?"" "Just answer with the gut." "All right." "All right then." "Really?" "Okay, so, uh, so I can get you prepped?"

"Move the liver to the right." "(beeps) Oh, boy." "There's some bleeding in here." "Is that what I think it is?" "She's developing a hematoma." "It's retroperitoneal." "Have you seen one of those before?" "No, because most patients don't survive it." "If it ruptures, she's got minutes before she bleeds out." "Call Dr. Bell." "Tell her to have this O.R. on standby in case we have to rush her back in here." "We're just gonna leave it like this?" "The best thing for her is if the hematoma tamponades itself."

"That's not from the bear attack." "That's an old fracture that's healed funny." "And she's got a few of them." "Bones that have healed without being set?" "Yeah."

"I'm a pro." "I just pull 'em out straight, tie 'em to a board." "So you've set more than one of her broken bones?" "(wheels rolling) Yeah. (chuckles)" "She's kinda clumsy." "And she's got that, uh, brittle bone thing." "Osteogenesis imperfecta?" "Yeah." "Yeah, that's right." "She told me the first time we met." "She said that she was fragile, and I told her that I would protect her." "(strained voice) Some job I did of that." "(grunts) Wayne, why didn't you tell us about all this before?" "I'm sorry, I didn't think it was... relevant," "I guess, is it?" "The more we know about your wife's condition, the better we can help her." "Look, I'm really sorry, guys." "I-I just..."

"Uh, he's got addiction issues." "Okay?" "This is going to get worse before it gets better." "No narcotics." "Give me, uh, 4 mgs of Ondansetron for nausea and one liter bolus of normal saline." "Jackson, draw a C.B.C., electrolytes, and creatinine." "(continues grunting) Done." "Why is this happening to me?" "Sometimes when we straighten a spine, it puts a strain on the internal organs there." "C.T. scan shows that his duodenum is being compressed by a superior mesenteric artery." "(strained voice) Why didn't you warn me about it?" "We went over all possible complications, Kai." "Yeah, but this was exactly what I was afraid of." "It's temporary, and it's very manageable." "You should have given me a heads up about the operation." "(lowered voice) Are we gonna debate this, or are you gonna come up with a solution here?" "Sometimes the solution is to do nothing." "Right now you want to do nothing. (grunts)" "What Dr. Reycraft means, Kai, is that we're probably gonna have to feed you by I.V. for a few days, just give your stomach a bit of a rest." "And what if that doesn't work?" "Well, then I'll have to go in." "You mean, like, operate again?" "That's what I have to look forward to?" "You said you would fix me." "(under breath) Right." "(groans) Oh, god!" "Oh, all right, okay." "Breathe through." "(pants and groans) Breathe." "(chanting)" "I guess he's feeling better." "The guy just got cut open, his spine is filled with bolts and rods and he can sit up erect like that." "(chanting continues)" "Dead still, no pain meds?" "(chuckles) That's amazing." "Mind over matter." "That's a strong mind." "Just make sure he stays in bed, all right?" "Yeah." "I have to get to the lab, okay?" "Two seconds. (telephone rings in distance)" " Where are you taking me?" " You'll see." " I'm busy." " Just this way." "(chair wheels roll) Hi Maggie." "Hi." "Let's find that heartbeat."

"He's... he's a great doctor." "Huh?" "You're right, I'm wrong." "I'm just gonna go retrieve some labs results, and I'll see you later." "Yay!" "(chuckles)" "Yay!" "(indistinct conversations, papers rustle)" "I've got the results." " And?" " Negative." "What?" " No brittle bone disease?" " No." "She's got more collagen in her than a Kardashian family picnic." "Thanks." "But her vitamin D level is really low." "The girl hasn't seen the sun in a while." "She lives in the woods." "Well, that's quite the tree canopy." "(sighs) We need proof." "He lied about her broken bones." "We're gonna need more than that." "I know because the minute she wakes up, he can insist he's taking her out of here." "Did he give us any next of kin?" "No." "Nobody." "Okay, so we need to talk to her." "(chuckles) How?" "I think we need to enact the domestic violence protocol." "What have you noticed?" "Old fractures, vitamin deficiencies..." "Wayne lied about her injuries." "Does this seem consistent with abuse to you?" "It seems to be, yeah." "So what would you suggest?" "You want to document everything that you're doing." "Take photos of her injuries, and record them on a body map." "And then when she wakes up, then..." " Talk to her." " Yeah." "Someone turned off the TV." "Thank you, Gavin. (pager buzzes)" "No problem." "I saw a commercial for a light that can make yellow teeth white in two minutes." "When did they invent that?" "You really don't know?" "I live in the bush."

"(man continues speaking indistinctly)" "You two seem like a bit of an odd match." "How'd you meet?" "I was hiking." "I fell and broke my leg." "He fixed me up." "We've been together ever since." "It's meant to be." "(man continues speaking indistinctly)" "Abby, does Wayne ever hurt you?" " Like, physically beat me?" " Yep." "No." "Why would you ask that?" "'Cause of the way you hide out in here." "And you've had a lot of broken bones." "And, um... you seem to be afraid of him." "What?" "Did you hear that... the whistling?" "No." "The whistling." "It's Wayne." "He's coming!" "Abby, what is it?" "I don't hear anything." "What's wrong?" " I shouldn't tell you." " Why?" "Because I need him." "(tone sounds)" "(woman over P.A.) Code blue..."

"Cauter." "Okay. (sighs)" "All right." "That's a big section of liver we're saying good-bye to." "Well, she's still got a big section left." "Okay." "Argon beam." "(machinery beeps)" "(sizzling)" "Let's put in the drains and close her up." "Okay." "Uh, quick follow-up question." "Okay." "Would a-an abused spouse feel the need to protect their partner?" "It's pretty common, actually." "Yeah." "Uh, would they also say that, um, they need their partner?" "You mean Abigail?" "Yeah." "Okay." "Um... so if Wayne is somebody who needs to be needed..." "Mm-hmm." "Then he can go to extremes and..." "weaken Abigail, undermine her until her sense of self and self-esteem is so shattered that she feels like she can't leave Wayne." "Dependency has a weird effect on people." "People are held hostage by it." "What?" "I said people can be held hostage by it." "Kidnapped." "Well, I'm speaking metaphorically, but..." "I know, but... it could also be kidnapped, right?" "Sure." "I mean, there are many documented cases of Stockholm syndrome where a captive is actually so dependant on their captor that they start to protect... them." "(indistinct conversations, telephone rings)" "(lowered voice) Abigail?" "(whispers) Abigail?" "(sighs)" "Really shouldn't be up and about." "Yeah." "No, it's okay." "I seem to have the pain under control." "Well, that's great." "Um, you should probably still..." "lie down." "Yeah, I know." "It's just, um..." "Well, I... (laughs)" "I haven't seen my face in a mirror over a sink for... seven years?" "(laughs) Look at that." "(laughing) Look at that." " Awesome." " Yeah. (laughs)" "Let's get you back to bed." "Yeah." "I know, I know, I know." "Oh, I am definitely gonna be doing more walking meditations." "Let's do a walking meditation back to your bed." "You know, you really should try it." "What, meditation?" "No, don't have the time." "Well, your problem is you've got too much time." "Mm." "You're always... (inhales sharply)" "You're filling your schedule..." "(exhales sharply) checking your phone." "Well, that's the life of a surgeon." "What time is it?" "It's 5:30." "No, it's not." "Time is now." "This is the moment you need to be in." "You gotta be present." "You know, I kind of get what you're talking about, in the O.R., when it's just me with a bone to fix, the problem to solve." "That's sort of when the world falls away for me." "What if I told you that you could have that feeling any time, any place?" "You sound like a drug dealer." "We had an arrangement." "I would get the surgery, and you would let me do one thing for you." "(clicks tongue) Right." "That." "Yeah, that." "(whispers) Okay." "(sighs deeply)" "There you are." "I've been exploring." "I used to explore a lot when I was a kid." "I know what's going on here." "What do you mean?" "What's your real name?" "Why are you asking me that?" "Because I think he kidnapped you." "No." "It's not like that." "He saved me." "I owe him my life." "No." "No, you don't owe him anything." "Your life is yours, not his." "Oh, I do." "(voice breaks) I do." "Don't you have parents, family, someone..." "Someone that loves you?" "A mom and a dad?" "Someone who misses you?" "I don't remember." "(sobs)" "You tell me your name, and I'll call them right now." "When's the last time you saw them?" "How long has it been?" "Months?" "(sniffles) Years?" "They haven't forgotten you." "I'll bet they're out there looking for you right now, and they're desperate to find you." "Tell me your name." "(voice breaks) Really?" "Yeah." "Imagine what-what they've been through, what he's put them through... (sobbing)" "What losing you has done to them." " Stop it." " Tell me your name." "Wayne can't hurt you here." "He can't." "He took away your past." "Don't let him take away your future, too." " Tell me your real name!" " It's Kayla!" "My name's Kayla Bradley." "(indistinct conversations)" "(Charlie) Her name is Kayla Bradley." "Her parents thought she was dead." "(Alex) How did you find this?" "I, um..." "I googled pictures of missing persons until I found someone who looked like her, and then I contacted her family." "She's been missing since she was 12 years old." "He kept her prisoner in the woods for 15 years." "He must have thought she was escaping and attacked her." "He said he fought off that bear with a pitchfork." "(exhales sharply)" "Charlie, there is no bear." "(siren wailing in distance)" "(door closes)" " How is she?" "Can I see her?" " No." "No, Wayne, you are never gonna see her again." "What are you talking about?" "We know who Abigail really is." "What do you mean?" "Kayla Bradley." "I don't know who that is." "You kidnapped her 15 years ago." "Kidnapped?" "(chuckles) Right." "She ran away." "You chased her down and you beat her." "What, the hikers heard her screaming, and you had to think on your feet what could do that kind of damage?" "A bear attack." "You're insane." "I love my wife." "She loves me." "Now I wanna see her." "(breathes deeply)" "You called the cops?" "What's wrong with you people?" "What is wrong with you people, huh?" "I love her." "I love her." "You have no idea what that's like!" " None!" "(groans) - (man) Come on." "(Wayne) Aah!" "Abigail!" "(door closes)" "(Wayne, in distance) Abigail!" "I wanna see my wife!" "Abigail!" "♪" "(footsteps approach)" "Look, if I said or did something wrong, I'm sorry." "Okay?" "But it would be good if I at least knew what it was." "Right." "Why would you remember?" "You were hopped up on liquid codeine." "(sets down mug) Wait." "What?" "So no offense, but you shouldn't be treating patients." "You should be in rehab." "Maggie, what are you talking about?" "Read Luke 4:23." ""Physician, heal thyself."" "(chuckles) That's exactly what I was doing." "I had bronchitis." "Okay, I had patients to see." "I couldn't stop coughing." "And, look, I'm not used to taking drugs." "It knocked me right out." "Why should I believe you?" "Because I would never jeopardize a patient's safety." "And look, hey, cough's gone." "Well, the-the bottle was empty." "You were passed out." "I..." "I just thought that..." "I could see why you'd say that." "But no, you... (chuckles) you were wrong." "Oh, god." "I feel like a jerk." "Hormones?" "It's okay." "All right?" "Are we good?" " Yeah." "I'm sorry." " Okay." "Come here." "Hey." "Hey." "So Jason is going to be our doctor again." " Really?" " Yeah." "Great." "Okay." "Um..." "I will see you next week." "Don't keep me waiting." "I won't." "So... that was a big hug." "Mmm." "Let's go home and get drunk on nonalcoholic beers." " Ooh!" " Ooh!" "Good thinkin'." "(Joel) Okay, so what do I do now?" "Breathe through your nostrils." " (stammers) Breathe how?" " What do you mean "breathe how"?" "I mean, how do I breathe?" "I..." "No, you breathe like a human being breathes." " Breathe in." " Now you're just being malicious, that's all." "Breathe in." "Be aware of your breathing." "And feel the breath on top of your lip there." "Feel your body relaxing." "Be aware of it." "This is excruciatingly boring." "Well, then you're boring." "You know, that's fine." "Just... let go of your boring-ness." "(chuckles)" "(José González) ♪ saw them gathering ♪" "Breathe." "Feel what life brings." "♪ by the thicket while assembling a nest ♪" "Hi."

"(telephone rings)" "(elevator bell dings, doors open)" "(exhales deeply)" "So I have a joke for you. (sighs)" "Okay, hit me." "Well, the big surgeon walks into a bar, tries to meditate." " You?" " Yes." " Meditate?" " I tried to meditate." "(laughs)" "It's-it's not funny." "It's..." "It's sweet." "Weren't you supposed to go out tonight, huh?" "Treat yourself or something?" "Well, that's what you said I was supposed to do." " Do it." " What I am going to do is go home, slip under the covers in my P.J.S, and fall asleep watching television."
