Wrong answer.

I wanted to talk to you about.

I was just trying to get
some screen time in

the hospital's system sucks.

is getting brutal.

I mean, like, I need to be
with my patients in person.

I need to see them.

life or death,

lured you away with
a fancy title and more money.

- Shocking, I know.

- And yet, here you are
finding your way back to me.

- Which wasn't hard, since
there's hardly anyone here.

- Yeah, which most would call
"good news."

Speaking of which,
can I show you

this adorable video
of my daughter not walking?

- No, and it's not good news

if you're trying
to dig yourself out

of a massive financial hole
left by this pandemic.

The public is wary
of coming back here, Max,

and without the money
from elective surgeries,

you can't pay
for the emergent ones.

So we need a powerful
and effective PSA

to save this place.

- A what now?

- HCC's funding a campaign
to encourage patients

to return to New Amsterdam.

- But I don't want patients
returning to New Amsterdam--

not if they don't have to,

not until there's enough
vaccine for everyone.

- We can't wait for that.
We need revenue now.

So you need to step
in front of a camera, smile,

and tell
the good people of New York

to get their butts back here.

Or you'll go down in history
as the medical director

who closed America's first
public hospital.

our recent experience

Here at New Amsterdam,

♪

I can...

I can honestly tell you...

- What's wrong now, Max?

- It's just that when people
are genuinely being honest

with you, they don't keep
telling you how honest they are

and they don't say things like,
"Can I be straight with you,"

which implies that they haven't
been straight

with anything else, which,
to tell you the truth, Dora,

kinda makes me sound
like a liar.

- How could you be a liar
when you haven't said anything?

Including the tagline,
"Come back to New Amsterdam."

- Because that would be
the biggest lie of all.

- What happened to the guy
who used to say,

"Our doors are always open"?

What happened to bringing
in patients off the streets?

- What happened
was a global pandemic

with no fully vetted vaccine.

And even when we get
enough doses,

30% of Americans won't take it

because of all the insane
conspiracy theories.

So can I be straight
with you, Dora?

This hospital is not safe.

Not completely.

how's this?

"Come back to New Amsterdam,

'cause if you're not dead yet,
we can finish the job."

have missed this?

not at the moment,

our medical director

in this particular case.

- No.
It's too dangerous.

wearing an N95 mask

our frontline workers.

- Have any
of your frontline workers

died from the virus?

- Yes.

protocols in place,

New Amsterdam is safer
