-Previously on Hard Rock Medical.

-We needed that money last week. -I can't sell the Harley!

-Hey, cuz, I'm kicking you out of my parents' house!

-You might not think much of throwing your career away,

but don't drag somebody down with you.

-This was a mistake, Fraser.

-Please don't throw this away.

-Tell me what you really see.

-A courageous woman who's

going to beat this thing.

-Something you wanna say to me? -Mr. Teneli...

-That guy looks like a typical wife abuser.

-You never want the cops to come and humiliate you.

-I'm sorry okay.

-Your husband suffered a massive

subarachnoid haemorrhage.

-I can't stop thinking about you.

-One cup of coffee!

-[Richard]: Dinner tonight?

-Huh? -Dinner?

-Yeah, I have to drop by

a friend's place first.

-Japanese, Italian...?

-Yeah, sure.

Yeah, it all sounds good.

[rock/classical music fusion]

[car starting]

[rock/classical music fusion]

-Welcome back, everyone!

It's nice to see no one

was voted off the island.

Session 2, ladies and gentlemen!

What will it bring?

Well, you'll be expected to be well on your way

to learning the names and terms to describe the human body.

Don't be daunted, there are only about 25,000 of them,

which is the equivalent to learning a new language.

And finally, you will need to master these procedures

and modules, all while becoming more intimately acquainted

with the Northern landscape and its people.

But we're not sending you out there without tools.

In front of you, you will find the Borealis buddy,

the brainchild of Dr. Cardinal.

[unzipping sound]

-Each PDA is personalized,

and on it you'll find all the info you need,

but the most important innovation

is the digital medical bag,

which is an app which allows you to use it

as a blood pressure meter,

a heart monitor and even a rudimentary ultrasound.

-It's also a day timer.

You'll be receiving your daily assignments like this.

[ringing sound]

♪♪♪

-Where can I find the pig's feet, Dr. Dallaire?

-The fridge in Lab One.

The sewing kits are on the back shelf.

-Thanks.

I'll grab yours too, Charlie.

-Uh, yeah, thanks.

-What are you doing, Charlie?

-Posting my Harley for sale.

I got a 4th kid on the way.

-Did you know that lending institutions

tend to look favourably on med students?

-Seriously? -Seriously.

[crow cawing]

-L.A. must seem like

a million miles away.

-You can say that again!

-I'll cook dinner tonight,

you can tell me all about it.

-No, I'm bagged. Jet lag.

-Did you get my texts? -What?

-Did you get my texts?

-Uh, yeah.

Sorry, I thought I responded.

-No. How's Kyle?

-Fine.

-He's still in a semi-conscious state.

It's like he can hear me, but he just can't respond.

-That sucks. -Locked-in syndrome.

-What? -Cerebromedullospinal

disconnection.

-Huh? -That's it.

Where the brain acknowledges something

but can't communicate.

-Can he come out of it?

-[laughing]: You did!

-[sarcastically]: Oh that's nice. Let's go.

[distant train whistle]

-Dr. C., I don't get it.

They've got hostels and soup kitchens in Sudbury.

Why do they set up out here?

-Freedom. Not everybody's comfortable in shelters.

All right, let's start knocking on doors.

-What's on the menu?

-Corn soup with pork

rinds and navy beans.

-Sounds better than what I had last night.

-[woman]: I'm trying to do the laundry here!

Where are your socks and underwear?

-[man]: Jesus Christ, woman, and you call me blind!

-What's that all about?

-That's Sheila and Lord Jim's place.

They're our leading socialites.

-Your bras and panties are strung around the room

like patio lanterns.

-The last time I left them outside, somebody stole them!

-The guy brought 'em back, didn't he?

-Ladies first.

[She sighs.]

-Ah, Louise! One of the disciples!

-Fraser, what the hell are you up to?

-Hunting. Isn't it obvious? [laughing]: Care to join me?

Today's lunch is hasenpfeffer! I got salt, pepper, bacon,

rosemary, thyme, lemon juice, wine...

[cartoony voice]: Everything but the wabbit. Kill the wabbit...

-Fraser...

-Hello, hello...

Oh that is nasty!

How can you not feel that?

Right...

Hey, buddy!

-Arghhh!

-I hear ya! I once rode into a cactus as a kid.

What's your name? -Rufus. Who the hell are you?

-Gary Frazier, med student.

I can help you with your little problem.

-Ah, I'll do it!

[straining]: OK, you do it.

♪♪♪

-All right, there you go.

Take care.

So her right calf was very swollen,

and it got worse over the past 24 hours.

-Her prescription was for warfarin and enoxaparin, right?

Something cancer-related? -Stick to the symptoms.

She just finished treatment for breast cancer.

-Deep venous thrombosis. -You got it!

-Yeah, you did! -I did!

[phone ringing]

-[Cameron]: A year's a long time.

-I thought it'd be temporary.

I was hoping to find something in my field, but... [He laughs.]

-What'd you do?

-Train engineer on

the Polar Bear Express,

from Cochrane to Moosonee.

Damned if I ever saw a polar bear on that run!

[Cameron chuckles.]

So what happened?

-They claimed I blew through some signals.

They put me through this bullshit medical review.

All this mumbo jumbo.

Degenerative hearing loss,

sleep apnea, yadda yadda...

-You need a hand?

-I try to keep the place organized,

but look at the clutter over there!

-Uh, Jim, since I'm here,

why don't we do a quick check-up.

-What kind of check-up?

-Think of it as a quick oil and lube job.

-Make it snappy, I got a job interview.

-You got it. -I was a stay-at-home mom.

I barely saw Jim.

Then when the kids left home,

I worked in a factory making ice cream sticks.

Birch, they make a great ice cream stick.

Did you know that?

But, well, then they folded.

We didn't have any real savings.

Had to sell everything so we could live off the money,

till it ran out.

-What about your kids, Sheila?

Can't you ask them for some help?

-No, Jim is way too proud to go to Sandra and Neil.

He'd rather suffer in silence!

I can't wait for him to start his new job

so we can get out of here.

-Oh, so he got a job? -Well, almost.

We should find out today.

He's going to take the test.

-Well, that sounds great!

-Yeah, if it means I get my top loader back...

[She sighs.]

God, I could really use a manicure!

-Now, this is gonna seem a little redundant,

but I have to give you a needle.

It'll just freeze the area.

-It couldn't hurt any worse than that... Ah!

OK, I was wrong about that.

-It'll take a few minutes to take effect.

-[panting]: So what's your moniker?

-Don't have one. -What?

Everyone has a moniker, it's how one defines oneself in life!

-Well, I've got this.

-[laughing]: That looks like a mutated Tasmanian devil.

-It's a dolpharoo: half kangaroo, half dolphin.

I used to be a swimmer.

-How the hell are you supposed to swim with those legs?

[straining]: I should probably get a tattoo for my leg.

It wouldn't even hurt.

I could use a magic marker.

-What happened there?

-Shark. -What kind?

-Big.

[ripping sound]

-Snake. -What kind?

-Small. [He laughs, then groans.]

-Hey, Lise. -Hey!

-So you have my prescription? -Yeah.

-OK, we'll try the sidenafil for the first 2 weeks,

see how that goes.

-I start with this blue pill, right?

-Right, and then we can see the results

and consider the pentoxifylline after that.

-OK, I'll give it a shot. -All right, Mr. Teneli.

-Thanks. -Right.

-[lilting]: Erectile dysfunction?

-White hand syndrome.

-How did you get that?

-Ah shit!

Argh...!

-Let me give you a hand, Mr. Teneli.

-No, no, no! I got it, OK?

-I'll get you a fresh bottle of pills.

[pills ratting in bottle]

-What really pisses me off is,

he got you doing his dirty work for him.

How he operates under that devious little beard of his!

-I think you're being paranoid.

-I think he needs a reality check.

-This coming from a guy traipsing around a forest

in a bathrobe and rubber boots?

-These are $140 Cabela rubber boots.

-All right, all right... So what's the end game?

-Louise, there's no end game!

[birds chirping]

-You screwed up with Nancy.

You shouldn't have slept with a student.

It's time to suck it up and make things right.

-I've made things right many times!

I worked around the clock to get this school off the ground.

-Apples and oranges!

-He can stay in his orchard and I'll stay in my grove.

-What happens when you get sick of rabbit stew?

-I'll move on to squirrel.

[gun cocking]

-Oh God!

-Hello?

-Who are you?

-Hi, I'm Eva.

I'm a med student. Are you OK?

-Do I look OK?! -Nope.

-How we doing here?

-Woah, can I get some friggin' privacy here?!

-She's, um, got the shakes.

-Where are you from, dear?

-[shivering]: Vancouver. What is this, 20 questions?

-We're just trying to help you.

Can you tell me what you've been taking?

-Nothing, I just got the flu.

My friend went to get me something for it.

-It's probably the new heroin. -Fentanyl.

-[gagging]: I'm gonna be sick.

-OK, babe, I got the stuff.

[The woman coughs.]

-Didn't meet my real family until my Nan died.

-Ah...

-Didn't get to know 'em much. Kind of sucked.

-Uh-huh.

-Apparently my dad died,

and my mom ran away

with someone else, I guess.

-What, a tuba player?

-Maybe... No!

-Yammering on like you got the shitty end of the stick!

Look at you: you're young

good-looking, you got a bright future.

I knew a guy like that once. -What happened to him?

-I don't know what happened to that idiot.

-Seriously! Bringing smack to a pregnant woman?!

-What are you talking about? -What's in the bag?

-Nothing! -What's in the bag?!

-Supplies! For Amanda, to help with her withdrawals.

-So you're a doctor now? -Gimme a break!

-Why'd you run, then? -You chased me.

-I chased you because you ran!

-I ran because you chased me!

-[under her breath]: Oh my God.

-A med student? -Yeah, 2nd year.

I got tuition, 3 kids, a 4th one on the way.

My wife is really pressuring me.

-We can certainly advance you on future earnings.

-Oh... -What've you got for collateral?

-Uh, I got a Harley.

But I really don't want to sell it.

-Says here you have a house. -Yeah, I do.

-[laughing]: You don't need to sell your Harley.

-I don't? -You have $100,000 equity.

-Really?

-Think of it this way:

You wake up one morning and discover

you have $100,000 stuffed in between your mattresses

that you had no idea you had. It's essentially free money.

-Free money, huh?

Yeah, it is, isn't it?

-Of course it is!

-All right.

That would solve a lot of problems, man.

Where do I sign? -Let me draw up the paperwork.

-So what's really in the bag?

[rattling sound]

-Keeps her electrolytes high so she doesn't dehydrate.

The Gravol's for cramping and diarrhoea.

[rattling sound]

-Valerian root?

-Anxiety.

And the black liquorice is to combat the cravings.

-I'm sorry.

[shivering sounds]

-When I was 20, I was in university.

Got pregnant, no father, just me at the time.

-How did you manage to raise a kid on your own?

-Sometimes it takes a village.

I moved back home with my parents,

so they could help raise my daughter

and I could finish my medical studies.

-How did that all turn out?

-Well, she's happily married, lives in Japan.

I became a doctor.

You want to see your baby? -You can do that?

-Absolutely!

-Yeah, sure.

-So, Rufus, if you don't mind me asking,

how did that seemingly bright idiot end up out here?

-Choices.

Some good, some bad.

Mostly bad. -Oh.

-Were you expecting something more deep and pithy?

-I guess so. -How many times

you run into a cactus when you were a kid?

-Just once.

-Know how many times I woke up

on a porcupine?

I'd like to regale you with a heroic tale

of how I lost my leg fighting off a grizzly bear

to defend a mom and her kid,

or how I threw myself on a grenade to protect

a buddy during wartime, but that just didn't happen.

-So you happy with your lot in life?

-You're the one pulling quills out of my ass, Dolpharoo!

How's your lot? -[laughing]: Touché.

-Just for the record, the kid isn't mine.

But we are kinda together. -Kinda?

-I haven't given her any hickeys or anything,

but we do have an understanding.

-What does that mean when the father comes back?

-He won't, trust me.

-Trevor!

-You got me in this situation.

-Me? How does that work?

-By kicking me to the curb

and throwing me out of your mother's house.

Cut me some slack!

I'm trying to do the best I can out here, but as usual,

you're just crapping all over me.

-Been in love with trains since I was a kid.

-Every kid wants to be an engineer when he grows up.

-I know I did. -What's that?

-You know, Jim, a good hearing aid could help.

-Why? To listen to the wife complain

we got no air conditioning?

-Your blood pressure's good. [ripping sound]

-There's my sock!

[Cameron chuckles.]

-Ah... What are you interviewing for?

-I got this school bus road test thing

I gotta do today.

[crow cawing]

♪♪♪

How do I look?

-Perfect.

[He chuckles.]

Good luck!

He's quite the colourful character, huh?

-That he is, our Jim!

-Tell me about him.

-Thought about what happens if he doesn't get the job, Sheila?

-Oh he'll get the job! He'll get the job.

-And half the time,

he can't even tell a red apple from a green tomato.

It's the damnedest thing!

-Really? -Really!

[typing sounds] -[Nancy]: Hey!

Hey, are you OK?

-I am.

[sobbing]

-What's wrong? -I miss my grandchildren.

[sobbing]

-Holy shit!

Just a...

-Hey, Doc! How you doing?

No, no, I'm good.

I'm just wondering if you can do me another solid.

-Yeah.

-Jim... Jim!

-Don't tell me.

My wife wants me to pick up

milk and hair curlers.

-Jim, I think they missed it. -Missed what?

What are you talking about?

-It's not hearing loss or fatigue

that was causing your miscues with the signals.

I think you're colour blind. -What?!

That's the craziest thing I ever heard.

-It can develop later in life. -I gotta get going.

-You're not going to pass that test.

-You don't know what you're talking about!

I'm perfectly fine. -Jim...

Really want to take that risk with a school bus full of kids?
