All language subtitles for The Pretender S01E16 Under The Reds

I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING.
I NEED TO GO LOWER.

THE CHILD IS JUST
BELOW YOU, JAROD.

COLLAPSE IS IMMINENT.
YOU HAVE TO ABORT.

I CAN SAVE HIM,
SYDNEY. I CAN SAVE HIM!

- YOU HAVE TO ABORT.
- NO!

NO!

YOU'RE DEAD.

I COULDA DONE IT.
WHAT? SAVE HIM?

YOU CAN'T SAVE EVERYONE, JAROD,

NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY.

JAROD HALSTROM.

HE WAS THE COOLEST Ph.D.
WE'VE HAD IN THIS PLACE.

HE HAD A PRIVATE GRANT, RENTED
THE LAB FROM THE UNIVERSITY...

AND PAID ME MUCHO DINERO.

WHAT KIND OF RESEARCH
WERE YOU DOING? NADA.

ALL WE DID WAS EAT PEZ, WATCH
FRANKENSTEIN MOVIES AND PLAY WITH MICE.

THE LIVE ONES ANYWAY. LIVE ONES?

YEAH, HALF OF THEM
WERE DEAD OR COMATOSE.

SEE, JAROD USED TO INJECT
THEM WITH SOMETHING,

AND THEN STARE
AT THEM FOR HOURS.

IT WAS KINDA GHOULISH.

THEN HE DONATED HIS LITTLE
CRITTERS TO THE SCHOOL WHEN HE LEFT.

EXCEPT FOR THIS WHITE
ONE. JAROD CALLED HIM JACOB.

JACOB?

- HMM?
- NOTHING.

WELL, JAROD USED TO CARRY JACOB AROUND
IN HIS POCKET LIKE IT WAS HIS BEST FRIEND.

THEY'RE DISTANT
COUSINS ACTUALLY.

EXCUSE ME. I HAVE TO GET THAT.

NO DEAD FIREMAN OR WOUNDED
CAMERAMAN. MAYBE HE'S GETTING BORED.

MM-MMM. JAROD WILL NEVER
BE BORED IN THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

HE'S TRYING TO SAVE LIVES.

WE HAVE A FEMALE,
LATE 20s, LEG FRACTURE,

POSSIBLE VERTEBRAL FRACTURE
WITH INTERNAL BLEEDING.

WE STARTED HER ON AN I.V.
OF NORMAL SALINE, WIDE OPEN.

SHE'S CODING! MOVE!

COME ON, COME ON, COME ON.

STAY WITH ME! STAY WITH ME!

UH, MISS PARKER,
HAVE YOU SEEN SYDNEY?

- DO I LOOK LIKE A LEASH?
- HE'S, UH, HE'S MISSING.

SYDNEY'S MISSING WHEN HE'S HERE.

WELL, ACTUALLY, HE WAS
A NO-SHOW AT THE SIM LAB.

HE LEFT FOUR SETS OF TWINS
TWIDDLING THEIR, UH, 16 THUMBS.

SYDNEY'S A NO-SHOW FOR A
ROOMFUL OF HUMAN BOOKENDS?

SECURITY REPORTED
SOME DRUGS MISSING...

FROM THE CENTRE
PHARMACEUTICAL LAB.

A NURSE SAYS SHE SAW SYDNEY
LEAVING THERE EARLY THIS MORNING.

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.

YOUR DAUGHTER NEEDS YOU.

- TRAUMA FIVE, STAT.
- SHE HAS A LITTLE GIRL.

OKAY, WE'LL TAKE IT
FROM HERE, JAROD. JAROD.

SHE HAS A LITTLE GIRL.
SOMEONE GET HIM OFF MY PATIENT.

JAROD, WE'RE DONE.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO. I'M
GONNA STAY HERE FOR A WHILE.

SHE'S GOIN' INTO
SURGERY. I KNOW.

I JUST WANNA MAKE
SURE SHE'S ALL RIGHT.

OH, NO, NO, NO. LOOK.

OKAY, I'VE BEEN ONLY DRIVING WITH
YOU, WHAT, A COUPLE WEEKS, RIGHT?

TAKE MY WORD FOR IT. YOU GET
TOO PERSONAL WITH A CLIENT,

THAT'S JUST ENERGY YOU CAN'T
SPEND SAVING THE NEXT ONE.

ALL RIGHT? WE DO OUR BEST FOR
THESE PEOPLE, THEN WE MOVE ON.

YOU CAN'T TRAIN YOURSELF TO THINK
THAT WAY, THIS JOB WILL KILL YOU.

NOT IF I DO IT FIRST.

WHY DON'T I HAVE PROPER TREATMENT
REPORTS ON YOUR LAST FIVE DELIVERIES?

DELIVERIES? DR. FLETCHER,
MEET JAROD RANDOLPH.

I HOPE YOUR PARTNER'S BETTER AT DRIVING
THEM IN THAN HE IS AT DOING HIS PAPERWORK.

I WILL GET TO THAT PAPERWORK WHEN
I GET A BREAK, ALL RIGHT? I PROMISE.

YOU BETTER.

SYDNEY MADE QUITE A HEIST
FROM THE CENTRE PHARMACY.

CYLIN, TRIPHENYLMIDE, D... UH...

DIFLUTAZENIL. UH,
A REVERSAL AGENT,

A NEUROSTIMULANT
AND AN ANTIDEPRESSANT.

HUH.

GREAT. GREAT.

NOW SYDNEY WILL TURN UP IN SOME HOP
HOUSE, AND WE'LL LOSE JAROD'S TRAIL AGAIN.

START DECRYPTING HIS FILES.
MAYBE THERE'S A CLUE THERE.

UH... UM...

YOU'RE... YOU'RE
INVADING MY SPACE.

CLOSE IS GOOD.

WHY IS THERE A SEVERED ANIMAL'S LIMB
HANGING FROM YOUR REARVIEW MIRROR?

IT'S A RABBIT'S FOOT.
TECHNICALLY, IT'S A PAW.

WHAT, YOU MEAN YOU'VE NEVER
SEEN ONE OF THOSE BEFORE?

IT'S LUCKY. NOT FOR THE
THREE-LEGGED RABBIT.

SURE, YEAH. COFFEE TIME.

WOULD YOU GUYS KEEP IT
DOWN? I'M TRYING TO SLEEP HERE.

YOU MIGHT GET MORE REST IF
YOU TURN DOWN YOUR MUSIC.

SELF-HYPNOSIS. TRYING
TO STUDY WHILE I SLEEP.

THE NEW ENGLAND JOURNAL
OF MEDICINE. I'M IMPRESSED.

YEAH? TELL THE ADMISSIONS
BOARD AT ATLANTA.

I AM OUT OF THE E.M.T. BUSINESS
COME THIS FALL, WITH A LITTLE LUCK.

HAVE YOU TRIED A RABBIT'S FOOT?

I'M A FOUR-LEAF CLOVER PERSON
MYSELF. OH, MAN, VARGAS IS HERE.

WHO'S VARGAS? MAX VARGAS,
STATE BOARD OF INSPECTION.

I DIDN'T THINK THE INSPECTION WAS
GOING TO BE FOR ANOTHER TWO WEEKS.

THIS GUY IS A BIGGER PAIN IN THE
ASS THAN THE SUITS AT THE HOSPITAL.

ARE THOSE THE SAME
PAINS IN THE ASS WHO

CALL ME AT HOME LOOKING
FOR THEIR PAPERWORK?

YOU MUST BE RANDOLPH. WHAT'S IT
LIKE BEING INDEPENDENTLY WEALTHY?

I BEG YOUR PARDON? WELL,
YOU'VE BEEN HERE A MONTH...

AND YOU HAVEN'T DONE
YOUR W-4, SO YOU MUST

HAVE A LITTLE NEST EGG
STASHED AWAY SOMEWHERE.

IT MUST HAVE SLIPPED
THROUGH THE CRACKS.

WELL, IT'S MY JOB TO
FILL IN THOSE CRACKS.

MAYBE YOU AND I SHOULD GO TO
THE OFFICE AND FILL THESE FORMS IN,

SO THE BOOKS HAVE A
SEMBLANCE OF ORDER.

OH, UH, MR. VARGAS, JAROD AND I HAVE A
UNION-GUARANTEED COFFEE BREAK NOW.

YOU'LL BE USING IT TO
FILL OUT THESE FORMS.

I'LL HAVE THEM ON YOUR DESK
FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

SEE THAT YOU DO.

IT'S SWEET THAT YOU
TALK TO HIM, SYDNEY.

SOME PEOPLE THINK
THEY'RE NOT AWARE. HMM.

HE NEEDS TO KNOW HE'S NOT ALONE.

JACOB.

I HAVE DISCOVERED THIS
EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH...

THE HALSTROM TECHNIQUE.

JAROD SENT IT TO ME.

IT'S A LONG SHOT, BUT
IT'S OUR BEST HOPE.

I PROMISED YOU... I
WOULD NEVER GIVE UP.

SYDNEY! SYDNEY!

"WHILE SYDNEY CARTON...

"AND THE SHEEP OF THE PRISONS
WERE IN THE ADJOINING DARK ROOM,

"SPEAKING SO LOW THAT
NOT A SOUND WAS HEARD,

MR. LORRY LOOKED AT JERRY IN
CONSIDERABLE DOUBT AND MISTRUST."

HE'S A STOCKBROKER FROM
ALPHARETTA. HIS NAME IS JERRY MITCHELL.

QUEEN OF MERCY, THIS
IS UNIT 45. WE'VE GOT A

MALE, MID 50s, POSSIBLE
HEAD TRAUMA, YOU COPY?

QUEEN OF MERCY?
COUNTY GENERAL'S CLOSER.

QUEEN OF MERCY'S GOT THE BEST
HEAD TRAUMA CENTER IN ATLANTA.

I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT THIS
GENTLEMAN NEEDS IMMEDIATE...

STABILIZE HIM. I'LL
DO THE DRIVING.

WE COULD HAVE HAD HIM IN TREATMENT
AT COUNTY EIGHT MINUTES AGO.

HEY, OUR STOCKBROKER
COULDN'T BE IN BETTER HANDS.

THAT'S WORTH EIGHT MINUTES
OF HIS TIME. I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

I MADE A JUDGMENT CALL.
YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

NO. NO PROBLEM.

NOTHING OBVIOUS
ON SYDNEY'S E-MAIL.

PHONE RECORDS ARE
ALL CENTRE RELATED.

YOU'D THINK HE'D OCCASIONALLY
CALL A 900 NUMBER TO SPICE UP HIS LIFE.

WHAT ABOUT HIS REGULAR MAIL?

MEDICAL JOURNALS,
PLANT WORLD MAGAZINE.

BOOK OF THE WEEK
CLUB. GIVE ME THAT.

ANNUAL DONATION TO THE
MOUNT PLEASANT HOME.

AN HISTORICAL SOCIETY MAYBE?

IT'S WHERE HE GOES FOR
CHRISTMAS EVERY YEAR.

DR. COREY. I OWE YOU AN APOLOGY.

I SHOULD HAVE RELINQUISHED THE GURNEY.
ONCE WE'RE IN THE E.R., IT'S YOUR PATIENT.

DON'T SWEAT IT, JAROD. AT LEAST
YOUR HEART WAS IN THE RIGHT PLACE.

BY THE WAY, THAT YOUNG MOTHER
YOU BROUGHT IN IS GOING TO BE FINE.

THAT'S WONDERFUL.

I'M NOT USED TO SEEING AN E.M.S.'er
GET SO PERSONALLY INVOLVED.

I FIND IT DIFFICULT NOT TO.

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE I KNOW
WHAT MY PATIENT IS GOING THROUGH.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.

IS THAT WHY YOU'RE
FOLLOWING UP WITH STEVEN?

I'VE SEEN THIS INJURY
A HUNDRED TIMES,

AND I'M USUALLY ABLE TO STABILIZE
THE PATIENT, BUT THIS ONE...

IT'S LIKE I PULLED
OUT ALL THE STOPS,

BUT HE STILL GOT AWAY FROM ME.

STEVEN IS LUCKY TO HAVE A
DOCTOR THAT CARES SO MUCH.

ARE YOU OKAY?

IT'S JUST THAT YOU CAN'T ALWAYS HELP
THEM ENOUGH, AND I DON'T LIKE THAT FEELING.

WELL, I THINK THAT
GOES WITH THE JOB.

IT DOESN'T MAKE IT
ANY EASIER TO LIVE WITH.

YOU'RE NOT THINKING OF
TRANSFERRING SOMEPLACE ELSE?

THERE'S A RESEARCH
POSITION AT CORNELL MED.

I'M THINKING I'LL HAVE AN EASIER
TIME DEALING WITH THE MICE.

DON'T BE SO SURE ABOUT THAT.

LOOK, DO YOURSELF A FAVOR.

REALLY THINK ABOUT
YOUR DECISION.

THIS HOSPITAL NEEDS
PEOPLE LIKE YOU.

"IT IS A FAR, FAR
BETTER THING THAT I DO,

"THAN I HAVE EVER DONE;

"IT IS A FAR, FAR BETTER
REST THAT I GO TO,

THAN I'VE EVER KNOWN."

HOW ABOUT A BREAK BEFORE
WE START THE NEXT BOOK?

- HE LIKES DICKENS.
- DICKENS IS HOPEFUL.

EVEN HIS SADDEST
ENDINGS ARE UPLIFTING.

I BROUGHT YOU SOME COCOA.

APPRECIATE YOUR VISITS, JAROD.

YOU'D THINK YOU'D GET ENOUGH
OF HOSPITALS IN YOUR LINE OF WORK.

WELL, THIS HOSPITAL COULD
USE SOME MORE VOLUNTEERS.

HOW'S STEVEN DOING?

THEY STARTED HIM ON A NEW
TREATMENT CALLED THE TREFOIL THERAPY.

IT WAS DEVELOPED
AT YALE. IT DELIVERS

NEUROSTIMULANTS DIRECTLY
TO THE HYPOTHALAMUS.

UM, I HAVE A FRIEND
WHO'S IN A COMA.

THEY SAY IT HAS A
20% SUCCESS RATE.

ONE OUT OF FIVE COMES OUT OF IT.

- AND FOUR DON'T.
- HE FITS THE PROFILE.

THEY SAID IF ANYONE WOULD
ACCEPT THE TREATMENT,

STEVEN WOULD.

HE'S A FIGHTER.

RIGHT, HON? RIGHT.

DO YOU MIND?

SO, STEVEN WAS A WRESTLER.

TOOK FIRST PLACE IN THE
STATE FINALS HIS SENIOR YEAR.

HE WAS BEHIND IN TWO
OUT OF HIS FIVE MATCHES.

BUT HE CAME BACK. PULLED IT OUT.

WELL, YOU MUST BE VERY PROUD.

HE NEVER GAVE UP. WE'D
CHEER HIM FROM THE STANDS.

I THINK HEARING US
MADE HIM TRY HARDER.

BUT I REALLY DO BELIEVE
THAT PEOPLE IN A COMA...

THEY HEAR EVERYTHING
THAT GOES ON AROUND THEM.

ENJOY THE COCOA.

DR. MICHAELS TO ADMITTING.
DR. MICHAELS TO ADMITTING.

"CHAPTER ONE.

"TREATS OF THE PLACE WHERE
OLIVER TWIST WAS BORN...

AND OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES
ATTENDING HIS BIRTH."

WELL, ARE YOU GONNA
OPEN THE LETTER?

YES.

WAIT, WAIT, WAIT,
WAIT. FOR GOOD LUCK.

ALL RIGHT. I'LL OPEN IT.

OH, MY GOD.

I'M... IN! ALL RIGHT!

YOU'RE GONNA MAKE
A WONDERFUL DOCTOR.

I'D BETTER BE. I'M ABOUT
TO BE $100,000 IN DEBT.

IF IT ISN'T THE INVISIBLE MAN.

I SHOULD, UH, CALL MY
FAMILY WITH THE NEWS.

I FOLLOWED THROUGH
ON YOUR PAPERWORK.

NOT ONLY HAVE YOU NOT FILED
YOUR PAYROLL DOCUMENTS,

YOU DON'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY
DOCUMENTS THAT SUPPORT YOUR IDENTITY.

AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED,
YOU DON'T EXIST.

I WANT YOUR NAME, YOUR ADDRESS,

YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
YOUR NEXT OF KIN, YOUR REFERENCES.

THE WHOLE KIT, THE WHOLE
CABOODLE, I WANT IT NOW.

- RIGHT AFTER LUNCH.
- YOU BETTER GET WRITING,

OR I'M TAKING YOU
OFF THE STREETS.

LET'S INCREASE THE, UH, CYLIN
TO 436 MILLIGRAM PER LITER.

AND THE DIFLUTAZENIL,
LET'S GO 275. ALL RIGHT.

YOU'VE BEEN MISSING
FOR THREE DAYS, JACOB.

I CAN'T KEEP COVERING
FOR YOU WITH MR. RAINES.

I'VE HAD PERSONAL BUSINESS.

YOU NEVER KEPT SECRETS FROM ME.

SYDNEY, I... I HAVE ETHICAL
CONCERNS ABOUT OUR WORK.

DON'T START WITH THAT RUBBISH.
WE'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING WRONG.

OPEN YOUR EYES, SYDNEY.
THEY ARE OPEN, JACOB.

I SEE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO WHAT
WE'VE BEEN WORKING FOR ALL OUR LIVES.

GET YOUR MIND OFF OF YOUR
CAREER FOR ONE SECOND,

WILL YOU? I'M TALKING
ABOUT THE CHILDREN.

HELLO, SYDNEY. ANY PROGRESS?

HALSTROM'S TECHNIQUE,
IT'S JUST BRILLIANT.

IT COULD HELP A
GREAT MANY PEOPLE.

ONE AT A TIME. HOW'S JACOB?

NOTHING YET, I'M AFRAID.

TELL ME, JAROD. WHY
ARE YOU DOING THIS?

THE MEDICAL PROFESSION. IT'S
ABOUT THE RELIEF OF SUFFERING.

REMEMBER?

♪♪

HEY, JACOB. JACOB, HOW
YOU DOING? HOW YOU DOING?

DID YOU HAVE A GOOD DAY? HMM?

DR. COREY, GOOD MORNING. HEY.

I WANTED TO CHECK ON THE
STATUS OF THE STOCKBROKER

THAT RENNERT AND I
BROUGHT IN YESTERDAY.

WE DAMN NEAR HAD TO
LIFE-FLIGHT HIM TO COUNTY.

I THOUGHT THIS HOSPITAL HAD THE
BEST HEAD TRAUMA UNIT IN THE CITY.

HEAD TRAUMA WAS DOWNGRADED MONTHS
AGO, ALONG WITH A THIRD OF OUR BUDGET.

YOU GUYS SHOULD KEEP
UP WITH CURRENT EVENTS.

WHAT'S WITH HER?

SHE'S LIKE YOU. SHE
CARES TOO MUCH.

I CAN'T WAIT TILL THURSDAY.

- WHAT HAPPENS ON THURSDAY?
- MY TRANSFER CAME THROUGH.

- I AM OUT OF THE E.R.
- SARAH.

THEY NEED YOU HERE.

LOOK, I HAVE BEEN THROUGH
THIS WITH EVERYONE I KNOW.

I'LL GIVE YOUR
REGARDS TO THE MICE.

LET'S GO! LET'S
MOVE! RIGHT IN HERE!

WHAT DO YOU GOT?

DR. FLETCHER TO
ADMINISTRATION, PLEASE.

DR. FLETCHER TO ADMINISTRATION.

SYDNEY.

SO, WHO'S MR. X? NONE
OF YOUR BUSINESS.

YOUR BUSINESS IS MY BUSINESS.

JAROD CAN WAIT.

I CAN'T. GO PACK YOUR
BAGS. YOU'RE COMING WITH ME.

YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE.

ALL I HAVE TO DO IS
CALL THE SWEEPER TEAM.

MM-HMM.

I HAVE PRIORITIES.

WHO WAS ON DUTY LAST NIGHT?

WHO WAS ON DU... SOMEBODY WAS
HERE LAST NIGHT? WHO WAS ON DUTY?

DON'T YOU HAVE THAT
IN ONE OF YOUR FILES?

- IF I DID, WOULD I ASK YOU?
- WHAT DID YOU LOSE?

THERE'S SOME PERSONNEL FILES
MISSING, INCLUDING YOURS, I MAY ADD.

WELL, I'M NOT GOING TO FILL
OUT ANY MORE PAPERWORK.

YOU WON'T HAVE TO,
RANDOLPH. JAROD.

BORN IN SEATTLE.

ATTENDED MILLBROOK ELEMENTARY.

PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY.

AND I'M SURE I HAVE
ENOUGH IN HERE RIGHT NOW...

TO RUN A BACKGROUND
CHECK ON YOU.

I'M THINKING ABOUT GOING INTO
PEDIATRICS. WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK A DOCTOR NEEDS TO
HAVE A STRONG SENSE OF ETHICS.

WHAT? HEY, WHERE WE GOING?

TRYING OUT A DIFFERENT
ROUTE TODAY. DIFFERENT ROUTE?

MM-HMM. PEACHTREE ATHLETIC
CENTER TO QUEEN OF MERCY HOSPITAL.

IT'S INTERESTING. THERE ARE TWO OTHER
HOSPITALS THAT ARE MUCH CLOSER BY.

NEITHER ONE OF THEM
ARE QUEEN OF MERCY.

- WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
- ETHICS.

STEVEN CHAMBERS WAS INJURED
DURING A WRESTLING MATCH.

YOU AND RENNERT TOOK
HIM ALL THE WAY FROM THE

ATHLETIC CENTER TO
QUEEN OF MERCY HOSPITAL.

EXPLAIN TO ME WHY
A SEASONED E.M.T...

WOULD TAKE A CRITICAL
PATIENT SO FAR OUT OF THE LOOP.

JAROD, WE DID THE BEST WE COULD.

BY MY CALCULATIONS, IT
TAKES AT LEAST 25 MINUTES...

TO GET FROM THE ATHLETIC
CENTER TO QUEEN OF MERCY.

WHAT EXACTLY DID YOU DO FOR HIM?

WATCH HIM FALL
DEEPER INTO A COMA?

RENNERT MADE THE JUDGMENT CALL.

I LOOKED AT RENNERT'S
RECORD FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS.

HE TOOK AT LEAST 30 PATIENTS
TO QUEEN OF MERCY HOSPITAL...

THAT SHOULD HAVE
GONE SOMEWHERE ELSE.

THIRTY PATIENTS WITH
EXPENSIVE INJURIES...

THAT HAVE INSURANCE
TO PAY FOR IT.

GOD KNOWS HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE
ENDED UP LIKE STEVEN CHAMBERS.

A DOCTOR HAS TO
HAVE ETHICS, JULIE.

PEOPLE'S LIVES
ARE IN THEIR HANDS.

THERE HAD BEEN A... A HAWKS GAME THAT
NIGHT, AND WE HIT THE SPILLOVER TRAFFIC.

WE JUST SAT THERE.

ALL I COULD DO WAS TO TALK TO STEVEN,
YOU KNOW, TRY TO KEEP HIM AWAKE,

WHILE RENNERT KEPT TELLING
ME, "WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THING."

YOU COULD HAVE FILED A
COMPLAINT AGAINST HIM.

IT WAS MY FIRST WEEK
UNDER THE REDS, JAROD.

IT TOOK ALL THE GUTS I HAD JUST TO
TELL HIM WE WERE GOING THE WRONG WAY.

RENNERT, HE WARNED ME NEVER
TO SECOND-GUESS HIM IN HIS RIG.

I DIDN'T WANT ANY TROUBLE.

I JUST... I JUST
WANNA HELP PEOPLE.

BROOTS.

MR. RAINES.

WHERE ARE THEY?

WHO?

I-I'M NOT SURE.

UM, THAT IS, I-I KNOW
WHERE I THINK THEY MIGHT BE.

- TELL ME.
- WELL, UH...

THEY WEREN'T VERY SPECIFIC. THEY
BOTH JUST TOOK OFF WITHOUT SAYING MUCH.

HOW'S YOUR LITTLE GIRL?

YOU KNOW, UH,

THEY... THEY DID SAY SOMETHING
ABOUT THE MOUNT PLEASANT HOME.

SY-SYDNEY GOES THERE
FROM TIME TO TIME.

I KNOW WHERE HE GOES.

I'VE INCREASED THE DOSAGE.

YOU'RE AWARE IT'S THREE TIMES
MORE THAN YOU ORIGINALLY REQUESTED?

MM-HMM. ALL RIGHT.

I HAD NO IDEA.

NOT MANY PEOPLE DO.

SYDNEY, WHAT HAPPENED?

I'M TALKING ABOUT THE CHILDREN.

WHAT'S SO TROUBLING ABOUT
CHILDREN, FOR GOD'S SAKES?

- DO YOU KNOW HOW WE GOT
THOSE CHILDREN?
- I KNOW WHAT I NEED TO KNOW.

NO, NO, YOU KNOW WHAT THE
CENTRE WANTS YOU TO KNOW.

YOU... YOU ALWAYS DO THIS.

YOU ALWAYS PUSH AWAY WHAT DOESN'T
FIT INTO YOUR PRISTINE VIEW OF THE WORLD.

AND ALL YOU WANNA DO IS POISON
THE GOOD THINGS IN YOUR LIFE.

SYDNEY!

JACOB. JACOB!

JACOB!

JACOB! IT WAS MY FAULT.

I KNEW THE ROAD,
KNEW EVERY CURVE.

SYDNEY, IT COULD HAVE
HAPPENED TO ANYBODY.

UH-UH.

A LATER SIMULATION BY
JAROD SUGGESTED OTHERWISE.

I SHOULD BE THE ONE
LYING IN THAT BED.

JACOB. JACOB, ARE YOU THERE?

JACOB.

"'I SHOULD NOT LET YOU
DEPART FROM ME THUS.'

"'YOU SHOULD, LADY, AND I KNOW
YOU WILL, ' REJOINED THE GIRL, RISING.

'YOU WILL NOT STOP MY GOING BECAUSE
I HAVE TRUSTED IN YOUR GOODNESS.'"

IT'S A LOVELY STORY. I'M
EAGER TO SEE HOW IT TURNS OUT.

FOR THE BEST, I'M SURE. I
BROUGHT YOU SOME COFFEE.

THANK YOU.

I DON'T THINK HE'S
GOING TO WAKE UP.

DON'T SAY THAT.

I'VE GIVEN UP HOPE.

I KNOW RICHARD HAS TOO.
HE JUST WON'T ADMIT IT.

THERE'S STILL SO MUCH YOU
COULD TRY. THE HOSPITAL THERAPY...

IT FAILED. THE TREATMENT'S
RUN ITS COURSE.

DID THEY TRY
INCREASING THE DOSAGE?

INCREASING, DECREASING,
DILUTING. IT'S JUST NOT WORKING.

THERE'S ANOTHER
THERAPY I KNOW ABOUT.

IT'S CALLED
HALSTROM'S TECHNIQUE.

YOU CAN'T GIVE UP.
STEVEN'S FOUGHT SO HARD.

THERE'S A BOY IN
CLEVELAND. HE NEEDS A HEART.

WE'RE TRYING TO
DECIDE WHAT TO DO.

AT THIS POINT, IT
WOULD TAKE A MIRACLE.

JUST IN CASE, I WANT TO
FINISH THIS WITH HIM, SO...

HE KNOWS HOW IT ENDS.

"'OF WHAT USE THEN IS THE
COMMUNICATION YOU HAVE MADE, ' SAID ROSE.

'THIS MYSTERY MUST
BE INVESTIGATED.'"

JACOB.

- I CAN SAVE HIM!
- YOU HAVE TO ABORT.

I CAN SAVE HIM, SYDNEY. NO!

- YOU CAN'T SAVE
EVERYONE, JAROD.
- WELL, I HAD TO TRY.

- YES.
- SYDNEY.

HALSTROM'S
TECHNIQUE, IT'S FLAWED.

THE EFFECT IS ONLY TEMPORARY.

THANKS, JAROD. THANKS.

I HAVE, UH, TRIED TO COME
HERE AS OFTEN AS I CAN,

BUT MY WORK KEEPS ME OCCUPIED.

I MISS YOU.

WERE YOU AWARE ALL THIS TIME?

JACOB, THE NIGHT
OF THE ACCIDENT,

IT STAYED WITH ME.

I PROMISED YOU I WOULD DO EVERYTHING
IN MY POWER TO BRING YOU BACK.

YOU SHOULDN'T BE LYING HERE.

YOU DIDN'T DESERVE THIS.

SL-27?

- WHY WASN'T I TOLD?
- IT DOESN'T CONCERN YOU.

IT'S CENTRE BUSINESS.

IS HE AWAKE? I'D LIKE
MY QUESTION ANSWERED.

- ANSWER MY QUESTION.
- HE'S AWAKE.

IS HE TALKING? NOT YET.

DON'T LET HIM. SIR?

JACOB IS A THREAT
TO CENTRE INTERESTS.

YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION
TO PROTECT THOSE INTERESTS.

DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT?

NO, SIR. A SWEEPER TEAM...

WILL BE SENT TO
ASSURE YOU DON'T.

MAKE SURE JACOB
NEVER WAKES UP AGAIN.

HEY. ANOTHER DAY ON
THE LIFELINE, EH, JAROD?

HMM.

MR. RENNERT, WOULD YOU
LEAVE MR. RANDOLPH AND ME...

- ALONE FOR A MOMENT?
- WE WERE JUST ABOUT
TO START OUR SHIFT.

YOU AND I ARE GONNA
HAVE TO COVER A LITTLE

GROUND BEFORE I LET YOU
OUT ON THE STREET AGAIN.

ALL RIGHT.

I RAN A BACKGROUND CHECK ON YOU,
DESPITE YOUR LACK OF PAPERWORK,

AND SOME INTERESTING
DATA SPEWED FORTH.

BECAUSE THE ONLY JAROD RANDOLPH
I COULD FIND IN THE STATE ARCHIVES...

WEIGHS 286 POUNDS,
AND HE'S BLACK.

IT'S TIME YOU PUT YOUR
CARDS ON THE TABLE, MISTER.

I CAN'T EVEN VERIFY THAT
YOU'RE TRAINED FOR THIS JOB.

AND DESPITE THE MOUNTAIN OF PHONE
CALLS THAT I'VE RECEIVED PRAISING YOU,

I NEED TO KNOW THAT THE PEOPLE
YOU'RE ASSISTING ARE IN THE RIGHT HANDS.

WELL, I GUESS MY
LUCK JUST RAN OUT.

GIMME ONE GOOD REASON
NOT TO CALL THE COPS.

SO, I HEARD THAT, UM, VARGAS RODE
YOU PRETTY HARD LAST NIGHT, HUH?

I THINK THERE'S GONNA BE
SOME CHANGES IN THIS UNIT.

UNIT 45, THIS IS DISPATCH.

WE HAVE A CYCLIST DOWN ON THE
CORNER OF PEACHTREE AND DUNWOODY.

NINE-YEAR-OLD MALE WITH A BLOCKED
AIRWAY, UNCONSCIOUS, NOT BREATHING.

WE COPY.

IT'S OKAY.

GONNA TAKE GOOD
CARE OF YOU. JUST RELAX.

PUPILS ARE UNEVEN.
WE SHOULD C-SPINE HIM.

LOOK AT THAT. GUY CAN AFFORD A
ROLEX, YOU THINK HE'D INVEST IN A HELMET.

GUESS I'M THE LAB
RAT NOW, HUH, DOC?

SYDNEY'S IN THE
LOUNGE. KEEP AN EYE OUT.

MR. RAINES INSISTS I WATCH.

WE'RE DONE HERE.

HE SLIPPED BACK INTO THE COMA.
HE WROTE SOMETHING DOWN FIRST.

I'M HAPPY FOR YOU.

SOMEBODY PAGED ME?

THAT WAS ME, DR. COREY. OH.

HERE.

WHAT IS THIS? JAROD
WANTED YOU TO SEE THIS.

STEVEN CHAMBERS?

A CASE CAN BE MADE FOR
NEGLIGENCE ON RENNERT'S PART.

YOU MAY WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS.

UH, QUEEN OF
MERCY, THIS IS UNIT 45.

WE'VE GOT A DOWN CYCLIST,
UH, POSSIBLE HEAD INJURY.

QUEEN OF MERCY? GRADY
MEMORIAL IS A FASTER RUN.

I'M NOT GOING THROUGH THIS AGAIN,
ALL RIGHT? QUEEN OF MERCY'S MY CALL.

RENNERT, THIS GUY
IS FADING ON ME.

THEN YOU KEEP HIM ALIVE TILL WE
GET TO QUEEN OF MERCY! COME ON!

COMING THROUGH, PEOPLE.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

HEY. HMM.

IS THIS WHAT SOMEONE'S
LIFE IS WORTH TO YOU?

HEY, I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.

THIS IS ABOUT YOU AND
THIS AMBULANCE DRIVER...

ENDANGERING THE LIVES OF PATIENTS
SO YOU CAN CASH IN ON THEIR INSURANCE.

IT'S ABOUT WATCHING A YOUNG
MAN'S LIFE JUST FADE AWAY.

STEVEN CHAMBERS TRUSTED YOU.

YOU DIDN'T CARE ABOUT HIS LIFE.

ALL YOU CARE ABOUT IS
WHAT'S INSIDE THIS ENVELOPE.

NO, NO, NO, THIS IS A
SETUP, MAN. THIS IS NOT FAIR.

WHAT'S NOT FAIR IS STEVEN
CHAMBERS'S PARENTS

ARE GONNA HAVE TO
UNPLUG THE MACHINES...

THAT ARE BREATHING
LIFE INTO THEIR ONLY SON.

- I'M OUTTA HERE.
- COME WITH ME, SIR.

HEY, WAIT A MINUTE. WHAT
ARE YOU DOING? HEY! HEY!

OH, MAN.

THI... OH, RENNERT.

YOU MIGHT NEED THIS.

"I HAVE SAID THAT THEY
WERE TRULY HAPPY;

"AND WITHOUT STRONG
AFFECTION AND HUMANITY OF HEART,

"AND GRATITUDE TO THAT
BEING WHOSE CODE IS MERCY,

AND WHOSE GREAT ATTRIBUTE IS
BENEVOLENCE TO ALL THINGS THAT BREATHE..."

WE NEED TO DO THIS.

"WITHIN THE ALTAR OF
THE OLD VILLAGE CHURCH...

"THERE STANDS A
WHITE MARBLE TABLET,

"WHICH BEARS AS YET
BUT ONE WORD: 'AGNES.'

"THERE'S NO COFFIN IN THAT TOMB;

"AND MAY IT BE MANY, MANY YEARS
BEFORE ANOTHER NAME IS PLACED ABOVE IT.

"BUT IF THE SPIRITS OF THE
DEAD EVER COME BACK TO EARTH...

"TO VISIT SPOTS HALLOWED BY THE
LOVE, THE LOVE BEYOND THE GRAVE,

"THOSE WHOM THEY KNEW IN LIFE,

"I BELIEVE THAT THE SHADE OF AGNES
SOMETIMES HOVERS AROUND THAT SOLEMN NOOK.

"I BELIEVE IT, NONETHELESS,

"BECAUSE THAT
NOOK IS IN A CHURCH...

"AND SHE WAS WEAK AND ERRING."

"THE END."

ALL DONE.

IT'S GOOD THAT
OLIVER FOUND A FAMILY.

- DARLING.
- I KNOW.

GODSPEED, MY SON.

YOU WERE RIGHT, SYDNEY.

WELL, I HAVE TO
GET BACK TO WORK.

SO, YOU'RE STAYING.

WHO WANTS TO BE AROUND
A BUNCH OF MICE ANYWAY?

WHERE YOU GOING? CLEVELAND.

AIRLIFT FOUR,
WHAT'S YOUR E.T.A.?

UH, WE'LL BE TOUCHING
DOWN IN 15 SECONDS. OUT.

ANY CHANGE? NO.

SINCE HE, UH, SLIPPED
BACK INTO THE COMA,

THERE'S BEEN NOTHING.

IT'S NOT FAIR. WHAT ISN'T FAIR?

SOME PEOPLE, THEY JUST FIGHT SO
HARD, BUT THEY JUST DON'T MAKE IT.

OH, YOU CAN'T SAVE
THEM ALL, JAROD.

YOU MAY BE A PRETENDER,
BUT YOU'RE HUMAN.

RIGHT.

HALSTROM'S TECHNIQUE,
DID IT HELP AT ALL?

IT HELPED ENOUGH.
