Dr. Hecate is one of the most highly
regarded psychiatrists in this country.

He specializes in short -term cases,
mild trauma, drug addiction, depression.

The kind of work that we do here can be
very demanding.

I can handle it.

There's a lot more to psychiatric
nursing than just taking care of people.

Your resume clearly shows that you have
a lot of experience in nursing.

And that you're qualified with drugs.

Yes, sister. I worked at St. Bath and
Perth for the last two years.

And before I trained, I took care of my
father at home in the States for a year.

He was on an IV, an intergastric tube,
and a catheter.

What was his condition?

He had a stroke. Complete paralysis.

Why wasn't he in a hospital?

My mother didn't want that, and we
couldn't afford a private nurse.

That must have been very hard on you.

However, a nurse should not become
emotionally involved with her patients,

especially in psychiatric treatment.

I survived.

Well, how'd it go?

$4 .99.

Champagne. Maggie, you got the job.

It's just part -time right now, but I
know that's been giving it permanent

power. Oh, congratulations.

You're in the money.

Champagne. Very nice.

Haven't paid rent for three months.

I'm glad you're enjoying it, though.

I promise I have the rent money next
week. I just got a job.

You better.

Or you're out.

Shut the door.

You can do it.

Even here in the green.

The more we care about the green planet,
the more it will return to us, to our

children. by way of life -sustaining
resources and get the attention of the

world. It's time to take heed and listen
to the earth. Okay, Mr. McCarthy, back

into bed.

There we go.

Would you like a book to read?

He liked a crossword puzzle.

I like them too.

They're Dr. Heckert's deep sedation
patients.

What's that?

I don't really know.

I don't really know. It's pretty awful.

They mix themselves.

It makes it so hard to keep them clean.

After a while, we just put pads on them.
Oh, nurse.

Look, I need a favour. I promised to
pick up Dr Hecate at the university this

evening. He's giving a lecture.

Would you be a sweetheart and pick him
up for me after you ship?

Oh, look, it's OK.

I cleared it with Sister Kerby, Maggie.

Here's his car keys.

It's the Rover.

Drive carefully.

And as well as being a prominent member
of the World Health Organisation, the

head of the Elysian Field Psychiatric
Clinic, director of the research unit at

Bellingham, he is a consulting
psychiatrist at four county hospitals.

He also maintains a very healthy private
practice.

Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to
you the man who was once described as

white knight of Australian psychiatry,
Dr Jonathan Hegg.

Interesting man. I wish you'd heard of
Bob.

Are you going to go out with him?

No, of course not.

Oh, God, I've already been out with a
couple of mine.

Well, I know that.

But you work fast.

Well, it is the early bird that catches
the worm.

Oh, speaking of worms.

Hi, Maggie.

Hi, Hugh.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Why?

What do you have?

A whole beer, please.

I've got some Coke.

I'm a bit short right now.

I don't want to put you through.

I'm surprised you've been speaking to
me.

I said I'm speaking to you.

Come on, Maggie.

I've been much of a bastard, haven't I?

Friends?

Just friends.

Of course.

look like me?

Does that look like me?

How do you know I wear leather knickers?

Hey, wait a minute. Give me a look at
Maggie's.

Oh, I had no idea.

really tired. I'm going to go to bed.
I've got to go to work early in the

morning. Maggie, come here for a second.

Sit down, please.

Look, I've had a lot of time to think
about it.

I've quit the drugs.

I'm going into this rehab program.

I'm even getting a job doing graphics
for an ad agency.

It'll be different this time, I promise.

What's going to be different?

I want us... to get back together.

I realized the drugs were a crutch.

But if you came back, I could do it.

Hugh.

Good night, Hugh.

Good morning.

Hey, Bill.

Better, thanks.

You know, Kay's given up on me. She
thinks I'm still in love with you.

And are you?

There's a tea bag in the cupboard and
bread and Vegemite if you want some

Try to eat something before you go.

Are you?

But I wouldn't give for a beer right
now.

Oh, you're feeling better, are you, Mr.
McCarthy?

No, thanks to this place.

Well, I'm sure you'll be going home
soon.

Oh, I'm in no hurry.

I'm getting to like watching you make
the bed.

Mr. McCarthy, you can walk in that bed.

No, no, it's a joke. I didn't mean it.
It's all right. You all just quiet down.

I don't want to go back to bed. I'm fit.
I'm all right. Look, I'm all right.

Back into bed, Mr. McCarthy.

All of you, settle down now.

This is a hospital ward, not a
gymnasium.

Quiet them down, nurse.

Then come to my office.

Nurse Healy, understand this very
clearly.

With our specialized treatment here at
Elysian Fields, we are fortunate to have

Dr. John Heckert, a psychiatrist of
world fame who specializes in this area.

His treatment is unique, but it is based
a lot on our patients not getting

excitable to any extent.

And certainly not to the degree I have
just witnessed in Ward A.

I think Dr. Larkin must have signed this
by mistake.

No, the doctor hasn't made a mistake.

He pre -signed the medication sheet so
that we can keep the sedation patients

under without having to call him every
10 minutes.

Well, how does he know what the patient
needs?

I'd like to see my wife, Marie Raphael.

I'm sorry, we don't allow any visitors
during the deep sedation, Mr. Raphael.

Yes, we know. He wants Mrs. Raphael
discharged from this hospital today.

I just want to see her.

Well, perhaps if you spoke with Dr.
Hackett, your wife's doctor. No, he

see his wife. I'm sorry, I can't do that
without the doctor's authority.

Come on, we'll find her.

Where is my wife?

I guess that's it. Thank you for
listening.

Stick up for your rights, Mr. Raffio.
They'll kill her if you leave her in

She's going to die, isn't she?

No, she's not going to die. Why don't
you just leave the poor man alone?

Mr. Raffio, your wife is in very safe
hands.

What would you know about it, you
brainwashed idiot?

Just leave him alone.

What are your qualifications anyway?

Look, you're upsetting him.

It's all right, nurse.

I might have known you were behind this.

Will you be pressing charges, Doctor?
No, I don't think so, Officer. This lady

has a psychiatric history of herself.

Yeah, I'm crazy.

Don't listen to a word I say.

What are you staring at?

I'm very sorry, Officer. Mr. Raffia is
under enormous stress at the moment.

Excuse me, Doctor.

I want to take my wife home.

Well, you can't take her while she's
under sedation, Mr. Raffio.

But if you like, I'll have her ready to
leave in two days.

Yes, I would.

Sister Kirby, take Mrs. Raffio down to
150 milligrams. We'll bring her out

tomorrow.

Yes, Doctor.

Thank you.

Come, Mr. Raffio. You see, we're not
keeping you here by force. I'm sorry to

make such a fuss.

So we just bop her on the head with a
sedative.

It's like taking a long, deep sleep.

No, no, Curtsy.

When she wakes, the depression will be
gone.

She'll probably quit smoking, too.

Nurse, would you give Mr. Raffio a mild
sedative, please, and get him a taxi?

And tell Sister Keraby to continue Mrs.
Raffio's treatment as before.

Don't you worry, Mr. Raffio.

Your wife is going to be fine.

Thank you, Doctor.

Would you like a drink?

Oh, no, thank you. I'm still on duty.

Don't worry about it, Kirby.

A bark's worse than a bite. Oh, by the
way, I had to chase up that paycheck of

yours as soon as you'd left. Thank you,
Doctor.

I'd just like to say, the way you
handled Mr. Raphael was really

Yeah, poor man.

I just don't understand.

Even the patients get this bit for some
time.

You wonder why they come.

But that's the plight of our healers,
Maggie.

We'd have to help them and buy
themselves.

Nurse Maggie.

You're going to make a good nurse, I
think.

Oh, I don't know.

Me too modest.

I can tell you'd rather hurt yourself
than let anyone else suffer.

You're what I call a true healer.

You'd better train the most of the
nurses we get here. Did Kirby tell you

No, she didn't.

Yeah, I bet she didn't.

You know, I have a theory that if nurses
are... trained better, they can look

after their patients better.

I wonder if you realize just how
exciting this work can be.

I know I could teach you something about
my techniques if you'd like.

I'd love that.

Good.

Then come with me.

Well, these days there are some
wonderful drugs. Very elegant drugs.

But people have this thing about the
word drug.

They just don't understand that the
body's a bloody pharmaceutical factory.

All we're trying to do is just, well,
help the body with its own natural

processes.

This is where it all happens.

Or deaths.

Shh.

Listen.

What can you hear?

It's sleep.

Perfect peace.

Now, can you hear it?

Just look at them.

Victims of this tough world.

They can't cope with the pressure. They
can't cope with the madness within

themselves.

Look at them.

But right here, right now, they don't
have a care in the world.

The healing power of sleep.

Nurse?

Dr. Haggard has asked you to be put on
the roster on a full -time basis.

Full -time?

Well, that's great. Thank you, sister.

If that wasn't my idea, I can assure
you.

You start the night shift next week.

Thank you, sister.

Because he thought it was a water
bottle.

Hey, what happened with you?

Yeah.

Stole my rent money. I haven't heard
from him since.

Jesus, Maggie.

Why do you do it for yourself?

He needed help.

I don't know. It's the plight of
appealers, I guess.

What?

That's what Dr. Hackett said.

Oh, yes?

No, no. He's married.

So?

So nothing.

It's not like that at all.

Anyway, I start on the night shift
tomorrow.

Well, we'll see.

problem. She must have gotten stressed
with us all the time.

Have to use the small ball tube for
feeding and the large ball for drainage.

Mr. McCarthy.

Yeah. They just put him under today.

Here. I'll show you how you insert it up
the nose and feed it down the

throat.

But be careful because you don't want to
puncture the lung.

Poor Mr. McCarthy. Why'd they put you in
here?

Dr. Eckert's orders.

Well, how are you two getting on?

Debbie, give Dr. Lark a hand with the
ESR unit, please.

Yes, Dr. Beckett.

Well, nurse, what do you think of Ward
S?

It's very interesting.

I was just curious about Mr. McCarthy.

Mm -hmm.

Well, he seemed to be doing so well.

I thought he was almost ready to leave.

I'll take care of the diagnosis, nurse.

Is there anyone at the nurse's station?

No, I was on my way. Well, I'd head back
there now if I were you.

Yes, of course.

How do you feel?

I'm so tired.

I can't quit yawning. Don't worry,
you'll get used to it.

Takes about two weeks for your body
clock to adjust.

Oh, my God.

You'll be fine.

I think it's right.

You're still worried about last night.

I should learn to keep my mouth shut.
You might even remember.

Good evening, girls. How's the fort?

Drums are quiet, Colonel. Good, then.
Drinks for my men. We'll attack at dawn.

Maggie, about time we had you do
something around here.

Rounds with me.

Ten minutes.

Do you know anything about electronic
sleep inducements?

No.

Plug it in over there and switch it on.

I was one of the first in Australia to
use ESI.

Back then, the machines were barbaric
contraptions.

They would jolt the patient so violently
they would cause multiple bone

fractures. I designed this unit myself.

It gives a gentle pulse that...

builds, so there's no shock.

You must have the patient firmly
strapped down, so they don't convulse

off the edge of the bed, cracking their
head on the floor.

This is the conductor gel.

A little on each temple.

Style here is for amplitude, length of
shock, and volt.

You see, the brain is just a mess of
electrical circuits. When those circuits

get messed up, that causes the
depression.

Could you help me, please?

Sure.

Such a miss.

You're beautiful.

You should see me normally.

Did you know I'm an actress?

Why are you in here?

I was performing at a prison.

One of the prisoners stabbed me. See?

I think I need the box again.

Dr.

Haggart says I can sue the government.

Well, how come you weren't deep
sedation?

I don't know.

He said it'd make me feel better.

He's such a wonderful man.

Before I met Dr. Heckard, I was a mess.

Disgusting.

My brain feels fried.

I keep blanking out.

Well, it's a form of electric shock
treatment.

Didn't you know you were receiving shock
treatment?

excited? No, it's a vital afternoon.

I hope it's not coming in tonight.

Not surprising. He spent two hours in
Miss Movie Star's room last night.

Then probably called in on Kirby on the
way home. It's all part of the service.

Yeah, you've got to be kidding.

Yeah, well, Jessica can't complain. I
mean, at least she's getting some, which

is more than I can say since I took on
this night shift.

Well, it's my turn tonight.

Well, thank you.

The lungs are congested and his eyes are
discolored yellow.

Yeah, the breathing happens because the
lungs can't clear the phlegm.

The eyes?

Could be kidney dysfunction.

Temperature's up.

I'll page Dr. Hecker.

Well?

He hasn't called back yet.

Well, what about another doctor?

No, they get really annoyed when it's
not their patient.

Debbie, this is serious.

Dr. Hecker.

This is Debbie.

It's Mr. McCarthy.

He's showing discoloration of the eyes.

His lungs are clogged.

Yes, Doctor.

Yes, Doctor.

He said those are normal symptoms.

He said don't worry.

Maggie, it must be internal bleeding.

He's not passing urine. It is the
kidneys. Call Dr. Hecate again.

Oh, I'll do it.

Gentlemen, ready to wait.

Dr.

Hecate, it's the clinic again.

Tell them I'll call them back. They did
say it's urgent.

Yes, what is it now?

Dr. Hackett, this is Maggie.

Mr. McCarthy's condition is declining.

He's not passing urine and his stomach
is draining brown fluid indicating

internal... Yes, thank you, nurse. I
know what that indicates.

Doctor, I think he should come in.

That's your opinion, is it?

All right, I'll be up there shortly.

What did he say?

He said he'd be here shortly.

Who are you calling?

Dr. Lark.

Maggie, don't.

Look, I'm the senior nurse here. You
can't just call in another doctor to

someone else's patient.

Maggie, put the phone down.

You saw him.

You tell me that man's not dying and
I'll tell you you're crazy.

Don't worry, I'll take responsibility.

Dr. Lark?

Hi, this is Maggie down at the hospital.

Listen, we have an emergency here.

I don't think Dr. Heckett will be able
to make it in time.

Yes, it's Mr.

McCarthy.

No, his condition's worsened.

Why didn't he come?

Of course he came.

He was just too late.

It took him nearly two hours.

He knew it was an emergency.

Mr. McCarthy was doing better.

Surely he didn't need deep sedation. He
didn't need electric shock.

Nurse Healy, pull yourself together.

Please remember that this is a hospital.

You know, you'll become a walking bundle
of nerves if you let things like this

affect you.

Is it Hugh again?

No, it's not Hugh.

I quit my job.

You quit?

Why?

I can't believe it. You need that job.
You were nearly out of debt.

Get another one.

Did you give him notice?

I told him my mum was sick.

Oh, great. Well, you don't get many
points for originality.

I have an appointment.

Cena Fury?

I don't see your name.

Of course you don't see my name. You
probably didn't write it down when I

called. I didn't write it down because
it wasn't me.

Do you want to make an appointment?

No, I'll wait.

You can wait till Christmas for all I
care.

Listen here, you smug little bitch.

Either you get me an appointment today
or I'll give you trouble like you've

never seen.

I'm calling security.

Look through your little list again,
sweetie pie.

All right then, I'll get help. This is
the fourth time you've conveniently lost

my appointment.

What do I have to do to get some action
around here? I'm sick of being ignored.

Don't you know how important this is?
People are dying every day because of

this. Yeah, I was thinking of getting
some gear on for the day.

No, no, no, the old ones are fine.

Can I help you?

On your 12 o 'clock appointment?

Look, I'll have to get back to you
later, okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

I don't remember having a 12 o 'clock
appointment.

Have you already filed a complaint?

Yes, over a week ago.

I'll have to check with my secretary.

Excuse me. I don't have much time. I
promise it'll just take five minutes.

Well, I don't know. I've got to get your
file.

Please.

Well, if it's been a week, it should
still be here. What was your name?

Maggie. Maggie Healy.

Here it is, Healy.

The memo says incomplete, check missing.

You forgot the $10 for processing.

Do you mean you haven't even read my
letter yet?

We get dozens of complaints a week from
disgruntled patients.

You're a nurse.

You should understand that there's
always a percentage of failures with

patients. What the... patient wasn't
critical.

I can't discuss this without the proper
paperwork.

Write a check for $10 and I'll see your
complaints process.

You work at L .T. and Phil, don't you?

Not anymore.

What happened?

Pickett murdered another patient. He
didn't murder anyone.

Oh, yeah? What are you doing here then?

You know, this complaint bureau is a bit
of a joke.

They'll send out an inspector, but all
the inspector does is dismiss the

complaint.

We'll see.

I have already been to the health
department. I want to see the minister.

I already sent a letter.

Bitch.

She hung up.

They're not going to listen to you.

Why not?

Because it sounds crazy.

What, you think I'm making it up?

I think.

You should get on with your life. You
haven't even started to look for a job

yet.

Hello? Hi.

Guess who?

What do you want?

You don't sound very friendly.

Good observation.

Where's my money you stole?

Ah, I'm really sorry, Maggie.

That was my rent money.

You'll have that money by the end of the
week.

But I need a place to stay.

Oh, sure. Why not?

I've been busted for possession.

They say if I go to this rehab place,
then they won't send me to jail.

So I need a place to stay.

No.

Just for a couple of nights.

Why don't you stay with your parents?

Steal from them. They can afford it.

Look, I can't do that, and I won't do
it.

Maggie, I need you.

Look, I'll bring the money with me.

No.

I guess I've burned all my bridges then,
hey?

You bet.

They're in ashes.

Do you think they'd be more lenient if
the boy comes here for treatment?

Certainly. If I say he's been through
the treatment and is fully

he'll probably just get probation.

I've handled many cases like this.

An initial payment of $1 ,500, I
believe.

Found it too good to be true.

What exactly are you accusing Dr.
Heckett of?

Dr. Schemberg, don't you care that one
of your colleagues may be mistreating

patients? Of course I care.

I'm president of the APA.

These sort of accusations can do
enormous damage to the entire

profession.

I was actually talking about the
patients.

My dear young lady, I have been treating
patients for 30 years, and I am

thinking of all patients.

But I have no intention of triggering a
psychiatric witch hunt.

It is my opinion that his deep sedation
and ESI therapy is outdated.

My advice to you is to forget about it.

It'll die out of its own accord.

And what happens in the meantime?

Patients just keep dying?

Jessica?

I hardly recognize you. You look
terrific.

I'm sorry, I've forgotten your name.

Maggie. I was a nurse at Elysian Field.

Oh, I remember.

God, I try to forget that place.

How long were you there for?

Oh, not long.

The money for my lawsuit came through.

Although Hart went to paying the
hospital bill.

You look incredible.

Thank you.

I'm working again.

I'm up for a part in a series.

That's terrific.

It's really good to see you. I was
worried about you after I left the

Oh, yeah, well, that's all in the past.

Look, I'm really late for an
appointment.

It was nice seeing you.

Hold it. I'm coming.

You look like hell.

What are you doing here?

Not sleeping too well, huh?

How did you find out where I live?

I've got my contacts.

Look, I wanted to find out if anything
happened with your complaint.

I have no idea. I'm sure they're looking
into it.

So?

So nothing. I'm getting on with my life.
It's not my responsibility.

I guess it isn't.

Why am I even talking to you? You have
no right to invade my privacy.

Look, I'm sorry if I'm bothering you,
but... Maggie, look.

I know you left Elysian Fields.

And I think I know why.

I have been to the health department
five times.

I have talked to a dozen psychiatrists.
They all know about it. Of course they

know. They're no different from you.

The health department won't stop it.
They have to.

You really believe that?

I do. It's their job.

Maggie, you can really help me.

I can only expose him with inside help.

Look, I need information from the
patient's files. Anything.

You could get that for me.

I'm not going back there.

Well, fuck you then.

Forget the whole thing ever existed,
just like everybody else does.

You know, for somebody without any
credentials, you're pretty obnoxious.

yeah.

home. He was a different person.

His whole personality's changed.

Of course, you know, he liked you very
much.

You were a good influence on him.

We thought that maybe you'd try to talk
to him.

He tried to kill himself.

Twice. With an accident.

Darling, you don't swallow a whole
bottle of sedatives twice by accident.

What kind of treatment did he receive?

This thing called deep sedation.

I don't really understand what it's
about, but... Was he in Elysian Field?

You know the hospital.

Where is he?

Hugh?

Hugh, look who's here.

It's Maggie.

He just sits like that all day, staring
into space.

His only other interest is to sit in his
boat, pretending to fish.

Come on, darling.

We'll be downstairs.

How lovely.

Hugh, these are all wonderful.

Oh, Hugh, you must let me take them home
and show them to Kay.

Do you want to do another one now?

It's a lovely day.

You could sketch me now.

Oh, Hugh.

You used to love to sketch me whenever
you had a chance.

Don't you remember?

Maggie, sit on the boat.

Maggie, hold that boat just a little
longer.

Maggie?

Yes, Hugh.

It's Maggie.

Maggie, please.

Please take me out of here.

Don't want to send me back.

No one's going to send you back there. I
promise.

Your mother and father love you very
much.

You don't understand.

I do understand.

Maybe now more than ever.

Hugh's condition is very serious.

Well, Dr. Hackett said that if he didn't
improve, he might have to have another

course of deep sedation treatment.

Mr. Clayton, you can't take Hugh back to
that place.

I think you should consider pressing
charges against Dr. Hackett.

What?

You should find out exactly what was
done to Hugh.

I think you'll find grounds for a
malpractice suit.

That's out of the question.

What I mean is a high court judge.

If it ever got into the papers that my
son was in a psychiatric hospital

undergoing treatment for drug addiction.

Mr. Clayton, what about Hugh?

Pressing charges isn't going to help my
son.

All that'll do is drag my family through
the dirt.

Well, he's safe now.

He's at home with us.

Well, how about the McCarthy case?

Death certificate stated death by
natural causes.

Signed by Dr. Hecht.

Well, what did the coroner's inquest
say?

There was no inquest.

Do you mean to tell me there was no
investigation or inquest done at all?

Mr. McCarthy was an old man with a bad
heart.

Look, do you have a single relative or
spouse willing to press charges?

Do you have a single solid shred of
evidence? Hospital chart?

Prescription sheet? Anything?

No, I don't.

8 -5 -2 -3 -6 -3 -7. Hello, Mrs.
Clayton. It's Maggie.

Oh, hello, Maggie.

I'm just checking in.

How's Hugh? Well, I can't see any
improvement.

In fact, I think he may be getting
worse.

Would you mind if I came to see him
again?

I need to pick up when he recognized me.

Now, please, Maggie, come over any time.

I'm sure in time he'll get better.

What's he doing now?

He's just sitting peacefully in his
boat.

We therefore commit his body to the
ground, earth to earth, ashes

to ashes, dust to dust.

Thou knowest, Lord, the secrets of our
hearts.

Shut not thy merciful ears to our
prayers, but spare us, Lord, most holy.

I'm very sorry.

Thank you.

Look, you've got to talk to the
minister.

His secretary's useless.

That's what she's there for, to keep you
away from the minister.

I'll call you back.

We've managed to count more than 49
deaths so far.

29 of those people died while undergoing
deep sedation therapy.

Another 20 committed suicide following
release from the hospital.

The first case was reported in 1973.

That's nearly 20 years.

Yep.

How many doctors and nurses have known
about this?

Maggie, take these files home and read
them and let me know what you think.

I went to see Dr Hickett again.

And he told me it was a perfectly normal
side effect that would disappear after

a few months.

It's now been three years and I still
get them. Dr. Hackett said the best way

dry out and stop drinking was to undergo
ESI treatment.

I'd tried everything else but it had
failed.

This failed too.

But I'm now partly deaf and pus keeps
oozing out of my ears. My sister Julie

went to a lithium field after her
divorce.

Thanks to that murderer, Hickett, she
committed suicide. Hickett told me he

could stop the pain if I had ESI.

I can find your wheelchair for the rest
of my life.

Although I can't prove anything, I know
Hickett killed my father. No.

He's not Hickett.

Kill him.

We killed him.

They all went to the health department.
The police are the shrink.

Well, you know what that's like.

But it's worse if you're an ex -patient.

A patient with a psychiatric history has
no rights.

Same. Same if you're a relative.

They think you're just venting your
grief on the poor doctor.

I need a lot more documented evidence.

What can I do to help?

I'm not sure yet.

Nina, I'll get your files.

I'm going back.

I was sorry to hear about your mother.

Oh, she's much better now, thank you.

What was the problem?

Some sort of heart condition?

No, it was just a false alarm.

The problem was she wouldn't see a
doctor. You know how it is.

Yeah.

One of those, eh?

I must tell you that Sister Kirby was
absolutely against me seeing you.

Well, I can't blame her.

I mean, I left rather abruptly. I'm sure
I put a serious strain on the roster.

Well, good nurses are hard to find,
Maggie.

Especially for this sort of work.

I'm sure I can bring her around.

Are you serious?

The girl just suddenly ups and leaves
the clinic without any notice.

Come on, Rosemary. It was an emergency.

And she's good.

We don't get nurses with her
qualifications too often. You know that.

Well, I hope that's the only reason for
this sudden burst of enthusiasm.

I don't play with children.

This is the second time this one's been
under.

Do any good?

Not a dent.

Should I increase the years, though?

Well, I always follow the therapeutic
postulate to have a go.

Will there be any more for ESI tonight,
Doctor?

No, that'll be all tonight, dear. Thank
you.

Maggie, didn't you used to work here?

Well, I've only been here a few weeks
myself.

They have a pretty high turnover, don't
they?

I guess it's because you get sick of
taking care of the zombies.

Oh, that's what the other nurses call
them.

My boyfriend's a medical student.

He says it's pretty weird.

It's time for room two of sedation. We
seem to be low on sodium amytol.

Would you rather supply room against
them? Oh, God.

Would you do it for me, Maggie, please?

I hate making up the drugs.

All right, I'll make up the injection.

But you have to give it.

Okay, the deal.

Thank you.

This is great.

I still haven't found the files we need.

You never know which case might end up
being useful.

Are you okay?

I'm just tired.

Be careful, Maggie.

Don't do anything that might draw
attention to yourself.

There's bloody hell going on here.

Don't get on them.

What do you intend to find out?

Nurse, whose responsibility was it to
maintain sedation level?

Mine, sister. Did you give the
medication as Dr.

Hecate prescribed?

Dr. Hecate left that up to us. Thank
you, nurse, but she can answer for

Did you give the sedation patients their
medication?

Yes, sister.

Then how do you explain this?

I don't understand.

Did you or did you not make up the
medications?

It was your bloody job, wasn't it? Yes,
sir.

Don't bother looking at the label,
nurse.

Take Nurse Healy and check all the stock
of sodium amytal.

If I ever find any patient in Ward S not
being kept in the deepest possible

coma, there will be bloody hell to pay.

Now get out and get back to work.

You get back to Ward S.

Is this all the old stock?

Yes.

Are you sure?

Yes, sister.

All right, well, I'd better go and order
some more. Clean up, nurse.

Why'd you do it?

What?

Don't pretend to me.

You've been putting saline in those
needles.

I've seen you doing other stuff too.

I don't know what you mean.

Sticking files in your bag.

Maggie, what do you think you're doing?

I'm gathering evidence.

Evidence?

For what?

I don't believe this.

You've been spying on us.

Oh, not you.

Just Dr. Hackett. Yeah, but they'll
blame us.

They never blame the doctors.

They won't blame you.

Maggie, I can't afford to lose this job.

You don't have to do anything.

Just pretend you don't know.

Good night, girls.

What's wrong?

Why are you up so late?

You shouldn't have come back here.

Come on, let's get back into bed.

Come on, sit.

Too much pressure.

I can't remember my lines anymore.

It's obviously not worked, has it?

Jessica, why did you come back here? Why
not try another clinic?

Well, he said I should come back.

It's not working, is it?

No, I don't think it is.

But why don't you get a second opinion?

I couldn't.

He'd kill me.

Don't be silly.

He can't make you stay here if you don't
want to.

You don't know John.

Jessica, you can do it.

Just tell him you want to go home.

You're not committed.

Maggie, I'm so scared.

Good morning. Good morning.

for a year. Maggie.

Jessica.

How? Looks like an overdose of
barbiturates. I don't know how she got

Officer, this is Nurse Healy. She was
one of the nurses on duty last night.

Did Miss Sharpe say anything that might
have led you to believe she'd commit

suicide?

Not to me.

How about you, Miss?

No.

But Dr. Hackett... You normally
administer the barbiturates to the

patients.

How dare you speak to him like that? In
front of the whole

staff, in front of the police.

Whose side are you on anyway?

The patient side.

What the hell is that supposed to mean?
It was an accident.

It wasn't an accident.

Jessica told me he'd kill her if she
tried to leave.

What? You're telling me he gave her
those drugs on purpose?

Yes.

You take the word of... You take the
word of a paranoid, depressed woman

over John Higgins?

Harry, he's a thick man.

Look, I know how you feel about him, but
you can't protect him.

Damn it, Harry. I think I made a
mistake.

A mistake?

Yes, with Jessica Sharp.

I thought I could... I thought I could
back off. I thought I could cut back on

the sedation.

I was wrong.

I have to increase the levels of sodium
amytal.

Deepen the coma.

Keep them under for longer periods. Not
just two weeks, but three weeks.

Even four.

I've thought it all through.

They're just not getting enough sleep.

I think Dr. Lark is coming around.

I mean, he's got a heck of this getting
worse every day.

Will he testify?

I don't know.

Do you trust him?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

Well, look, whether he comes around or
not, we still need the files of patients

who've actually died.

Have you seen any special filing cabinet
or notebooks that he may keep locked

away somewhere?

I couldn't.

How many nights has it been since you've
seen your boyfriend?

Five.

Look how busy we are. Go on. Dr.
Hackett's gone home.

I suppose I could come back before the
change.

You're not going to do anything. I'm not
going to do anything.

Go on. Get out of here.

What are you doing with my books?

Um, I wanted some information.

Yes?

I was looking for a nurse's report.

Mr. Rowland's symptoms reminded me of
another patient's. I couldn't find the

file. Then why didn't you just ask me
for them?

Yes, I should have. I'm sorry.

I'm worried about you, Maggie.

The stress of the job seems to be
getting too much for you.

Are there some personal problems going
on that I don't know anything about?

No.

Perhaps you could benefit from some
sleep therapy yourself.

No, I'm fine, thank you.

I should get back to the patients.

Going somewhere?

I just need to get my notebook from the
car.

This is much more important, Maggie.

You've obviously been working under an
enormous stress.

Could I just have the keys?

I only want to help, Maggie.

Paranoid delusions can happen to the
best of us.

Maybe just a little bop on the head.

You'll wake up a new person, Maggie.

Maggie?

Just stay away from me!

Maggie, these fears of yours are just
ghosts that will haunt you unless you

me budge.

They're a byproduct of stress.

Anxiety. Don't you see how malleable the
mind is?

You can read about some of my
experiments, if you like.

In those books you were snooping in.

But if the anterior part of the brain
isn't functioning properly,

you get depressed.

Start having fantasies.

Justify these feelings.

And help me with that, Maggie.

Now, nurse, you know you can't lock
these doors without keys.

A good psychiatrist has to really
understand his patient.

If he's going to be of any help.

I am a surgeon.

Better than you think.

I've seen how you react when I give
patients ESI.

You feel for them all so deeply.

It was as if their pain was your own.
Isn't that true?

Just leave me alone!

You see how alike we are, you and I?

If only you'd just trust me.

What are you trying to save these
patients from?

From me?

They came to me for help. Me!

But they never asked you to give them
ESI!

Come on.

People are like sheep.

They don't want to take responsibility
for their bodies or their minds. Help

doctor. Help me. Save me. Take the pain
away. Do something. But just do

something! But 51 have died!

51? Who gave you those figures?

Those CAPA people, I suppose. Well, 51
may be more!

With how many patients do you think I've
treated?

This is a high -risk procedure.

You must understand that without me,
these people would be at the bottom of

barrel.

Shooting them would be their only other
option.

Forces of madness are all around.

You think that's arrogant, do you?

Then what the hell are you doing here?

Who asked you to save them, Maggie?

Did anyone ask you to save them?

I know you took it upon yourself to save
them for their own good.

You see, Maggie, you and I aren't that
different.

We both want to be on the right end of
the status quo.

Let's go.

What's happening?

Doctor, I... He went crazy.

He wants to put me under... He found me
in his office.

He wants to kill me.

What were you doing in his office?

I found the books. All those people he
kills.

He kept records of them like they were
lab animals.

Where is he now?

He's in there. I've locked him in.

All right, he seems to be unconscious.
Look, you put them back to bed, okay?

I'll take care of you.

Have you got the key?

It's okay.

I'll sit down. You're safe.

Could you come here, please?

What's he doing here?

I don't understand.

That's right, Maggie. You don't
understand.

John's prosecuted someone.

But you didn't hurt anyone. Maggie.

I worked with John every day for ten
years.

Mind you, even if I'm not held
responsible, I'll be discredited.

What patient's ever going to come near
me after that?

I'm very sorry, Maggie.

What are you going to do?

Don't hurt me.

Don't hurt me.

No, no.

Don't fight it, Maggie.

You're just going to have a long...

Get her back in here with an admission
form.

I'm admitting her.

A couple of extra sessions of ESI.

Complications will occur.

What are you saying? We agreed to drug
her into... Shut up, Harry. You're

pathetic.

Forget about it.

Find Caraby. Get back here with Edmund.

The trust between doctor and patient is
sacrosanct.

In this case, that trust was betrayed.

Perhaps the most damning evidence given
to this inquiry is against the medical

authorities themselves.

By their apathy and patient disinterest
in the welfare of patients at the

Elysian Fields Hospital, despite the
repeated complaints brought to their

attention, they stand condemned today.

Had they shown an ounce of the courage
and determination exhibited by this

many lives could have been saved.

It is their lesson for the future.

Miss Healy, all patients under
psychiatric treatment throughout this

in your debt.

You may step down.

Thank you.

There is no person involved on my part.
Will Dr.

Heckard be investigated?
