So you can take that look and shove it up your ass.

We'll go first.

- Does defence counsel have an objection?

No objection, Your Honour.

- Your Honour, we filed a motion to compel discovery regarding

the peer review committee at North City Hospital,

commonly known as the Tissue Committee,

as it may have information relevant to our case.

- Peer review confidentiality exists to protect patients

just like Donny Ray Black.

The doctors on the committee can't be worrying

about some contingent fee attorney

weaponising their vital work just to make a buck.

- Your Honour, I object to the ad hominem attack.

- Guys, it's early. Give it a rest.

- You're boring me.

- Sorry you're not entertained.

- She's a mother. Use it.

- Your Honour, our client has the right

to know what happened to her only living son

who died while on--

- Section 40-71-20 of the state code

clearly protects the sanctity of the peer review process.

- That law must be read alongside 40-71-10,

which only protects the peer review of doctors, not nurses.

- And why is that relevant here?

- Is he right? - Because, Your Honour...

- No.

- Our theory is that the nurses in this case may be at fault.

- Counsel is wilfully ignoring the amendment

that clarified that statute.

Section 44-7-3-92 extends the requirement

of confidentiality to all hospital employees,

including nurses.

- Mr. Baylor, what is your response?

- Your Honour, in Durham v. Vincent,

the, uh--the court said that the plain--plaintiff is--

Your Honour, in Durham v. Vincent,

the court said that the plaintiff

is entitled to know that--

- To know only the outcome of an investigation.

The committee here took no action, ergo, no investigation.

- Because the, uh, hospital didn't do anything

doesn't mean that there wasn't an investigation.

I mean, a man died. - Again, counsel is fishing.

He is simply looking for anything

that can help his weak case and doing it at the expense

of this court's time.

- Mr. Baylor?

- Hang on, Mr. Baylor.

Are you contending that this was intentional misconduct

by the nurse? - Are you?

Are you saying that?

- And are you therefore seeking leave

to amend your complaint to add that alternative claim?

- No.

- Yes, Your Honour. Yes, we are.

- No, we are not, Your Honour.

We are not seeking leave to do anything.

You know what my favourite thing about being a nurse is?

[suspenseful music]

The mercy.

People come into the hospital.

They got a broken leg, we fix it.

Someone has the flu, we treat it.

- You killed that man.

- I saved him.

He was a drug addict.

It was in his chart.

- Well, he was clean, Melvin.

Not that it matters.

He was innocent.

- I gave him mercy, him and his whole family.

Addiction is a disease of relapse.

- So is cancer.

We don't murder them.

It's in the tool shed.

I put it in a coffee can.

Go look, if you don't believe me.

It's lovely.

Hey, you wake up in the morning,

there's snow on the ground. You know what that means?

Maybe I shouldn't have said it in that hearing,
