It is not, and will
not be, a witch hunt.

It can't be about punishment,
or worse, revenge.

- It should be.
- I think you should testify.

I don't see the need to relive it.

I don't owe anybody my story.

The AZT doesn't seem to be helping.

You really need to take it easy.

Give the meds a chance.

- [SHOT CRACKS]
- [JIM]: Say I take that rifle,

and I point it at your head,
and I pull the trigger,

someone's gonna call that
murder, dontcha think?

I'm so sorry.

He's gone.

Will you marry me?

I want kids.

We don't really know how long I have.

Doesn't change how I feel.

I watched my husband become
bitter, hateful, and vengeful.

[MARLYS EDWARDH]:
They're all filing suit.

They're basically saying
we sandbagged them.

They buried my friends,

now they're trying to bury the truth.

[REPORTER]: Canadians
are another step closer

to learning the result

of the multi-year Krever
Commission's inquiry

into the safety of
Canada's blood system.

The Federal Court of Appeal

today rejected the Red Cross and
other government officials'

attempt to block Krever from
assigning blame in his report.

While today's ruling was
certainly good news,

the battle is not over.

The case is now going
to the Supreme Court,

and hopefully, they will
agree with the lower courts,

but we can't assume anything.

And as the fight for
the truth continues...

we continue to bury the dead.

It's good.

Lameck wants to cut it.

Why?

He says it appeals to
emotions rather than facts.

Well, this is the Supreme
Court we're talking about,

so your oral arguments are limited.

Your best shot to make your case
is with the written factum.

I know that.

So are you worried?

Every court so far has
ruled in our favour.

It wouldn't have gotten this
far if it was a sure thing.

Lameck is your lawyer. He works for you.

I told him the paragraph stays in.

[RED CROSS ATTORNEY ON TV]:
...Well, because, milady,

Section 13 speaks of misconduct.

There is virtually no
judicial definition

of what misconduct is.

[SUPREME COURT JUSTICE]: We
all know what misconduct is,

or easily can find that out.

[ATTORNEY]: But it can
be short of findings

that are the equivalent
of civil and criminal...

[ALICE]: We're out of milk.
Pick some up if you can.

[ATTORNEY CONTINUES]:
Mismanagement can be a form...

Can you believe this shit?

These idiots are arguing

about the definition of "misconduct."

I mean, nobody seems to care

that the bastards actually
deserve to be blamed.

I'm going to be home late again.

We're out of milk!

... for the most part, of
criminal or civil liability...

Wait, what is happening here?

Uh, pan-seared salmon,

saffron rice, and broccoli.

Who are you,

and what have you done with my husband?

[CHUCKLES]

I'm actually feeling pretty good today.

Even went for a walk.

Wow.

Good for you.

How was your day?

Uh, the usual.

I did, uh, run across one...

fun bit of news.

Oh, yeah?

Um, doctors in Italy,

they invented this procedure
called "sperm washing."

Sperm washing?

The HIV virus is actually
only in the semen.

They use a centrifuge to
separate out individual sperms.

Then inject them into the woman

- through artificial insemination.
- [SIGHS]

I'm thinking that...

spring is a...

beautiful time of year in Rome.

I know what you're gonna say.

But I've been saving a little...

vacation slash artificial
insemination fund.

Look, it's not just because

I'm afraid of transmitting the virus.

[SMOKE ALARM STARTS BEEPING]

Oh, shit!

Open up... open up the door...

I can't believe he actually fell for it.

"Is that suit custom made?"
I'd throw up in my mouth

if I tried saying something like that.

People like compliments.

You know, Brian's a smart guy.

He should see right though Chad

and know he's just sucking up,

but he eats it up.

You're a brilliant architect,

and I'm sure you'll impress
your boss with your talent.

I assume that's why they hired you.

Thanks.

See? Compliments work.

I knew what you were doing.

[LAUGHS]

- Hey! I have a paper due tomorrow.
- Come on, come on!

I'm sure it's genius. A-plus.

Because you are so smart
and sexy at astrophysics.

Aw, a truly, truly sad effort.

- Told you I'm terrible.
- [CHUCKLES]

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey...

Hey...

[SIGHS SLEEPILY]

It's 9:20, don't you have
a deposition at 9:30?

Oh, shit.

[GROANS] I must have shut
the alarm off in my sleep.

Whew.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Hi.

[KEYS JINGLE]

[RIPPING TAPE]

[LISA]: "Sorry this took so long,

but my dad said in his will

that you should get his
beloved Marlin 336.

He said you would know
what to do with it.

Lisa Krepke."

So...

how are Huey and Dewey holding up?

His two remaining t-cells.

He gave them names.

They're still there, hanging tough.

Couple of bad-asses, Huey and Dewey.

Um...

What are his options?

The only real option
is a liver transplant.

Unfortunately, the
government won't allow it

for patients with HIV.

How long...

How long do you think I have?

Without a biopsy, it's hard to know,

but, um...

we don't want to put you through that.

Based on what I'm seeing,
your liver is already failing.

I'm sorry.

I'm just saying,

don't go in there with
unreasonable expectations.

He's the Associate
Deputy Health Minister.

He's the only one who
agreed to meet with me,

so, no, I don't have high expectations,

but I've got to do everything I can.

You know, changing policy takes time.

Whose side are you on?

The policy is outdated.

It was instituted years ago,

when HIV meant AIDS and rapid death.

There's new treatments now.

People are surviving.

I'll be back soon.

I'm sorry.

For what?

For not being able to give you
the life that you deserve.

For not being able to spend
the future with you.

I love that you're
fighting for me, I do,

but I've come to terms with it.

The time that we've had together...

it makes me so happy.

I want you to be happy
again one day, too.

Please don't be angry.

I won't be long, okay?

You're home late.

I want a child.

Then maybe you should find
someone else to have it with.

I don't want "a" child, idiot.

I want your child.

Preferably with you around
to help raise him or her.

I'm through talking about this.

I'm not.

You're not dead.

I know that you could die.

I knew that when I married you.

I understand the circumstances, okay?

I'm saying I'll raise the kid
as a single mom if I have to.

Why can't you understand?

I want a piece of you, Peter.

Someone to continue on
in this world with me.

I want to look into our child's eyes

and see both of us,

what we mean to each other.

I want you to live on,

regardless.

Just a reminder, this
Saturday, 11:00 till 3:00.

Great. See you then.

Every time I come by,

you're here.

It's a crazy time of year,
with the family picnic.

How are things?

Peter and Darby?

Darby's talking about having kids.

No kidding?

I'm not sure Peter's on
board with it, though.

You should go home and get some rest.

Go home to what?

That bad, huh?

We're like strangers
living under one roof.

I know. What can I say?

Have you thought about
seeing a counselor?

I could recommend someone if you like.

I've been seeing a
therapist for a while now,

but there's no way Ben would ever go.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

Sorry.

Hello, B.C. Hemophilia Society.

[QUIET KNOCK]

Hey.

You okay with visitors?

We can come back later
on if now is not good.

There might not be a later,

at least for me.

It's nice to know you've still
got your sense of humour.

We've been waiting on news
from the Supreme Court.

Do you have any idea

on when they might make their ruling?

No.

Hopefully soon.

Probably waiting till after I'm gone,

just to keep me from knowing
the end of the story.

Hey, Paul, um... everything you did,

all the sacrifices you've made...

I wasn't the only one.

Still. We won't forget.

I just hope it's not for nothing.

- _
- The findings of the Krever Inquiry

are not going to be admissible in court.

I know, that's why there's
no point in waiting.

The evidence is overwhelming.

We're certainly
monitoring the situation.

"Conduct which shows a
wanton or reckless disregard

for the lives of others

will by its nature constitute
prima facie evidence

of the mental element."

I know that intent is an issue

in terms of criminal prosecution,

so look at that.

It's an internal Red Cross memo

documenting the economic impact

of switching to safer
heat-treated products.

They knew it would kill
people if they didn't switch.

They chose to put a price
on people's lives.

Clearly, you've done your homework.

[SIGHS]

You make that sound like
it's a school project.

That wasn't what I meant.

You've given us a lot to digest here.

And I can assure you,

we appreciate your input.

I'm sorry, but that sounds
a little like bullshit

intended to get me to leave.

What you and your family
have been through is tragic.

You're going to have to
trust us to do our job.

I'll be more than happy
to keep you informed

of any updates.

Okay.

My number's in there, my address, too,

all my info.

We'll be in touch.

Krever's report is critical.

And if it ends up saying what we want,

it'll definitely help move the
Hep C class action suit forward,

but... [SIGHS]

we have to be ready if it doesn't.

He wouldn't want us just
standing around crying over him.

Marta's eulogy was beautiful.

When she talked about them

not being able to start a family...

it was so sad.

Hey...

he had AIDS as well as Hep C.

You don't.

He shouldn't have had either.

[ENGINE STARTS]

Good evening.

A long and emotional
legal fight ended today

with the ruling by the
Supreme Court of Canada.

It involves the Krever Commission

on Canada's tainted blood supply,

and whether the Commission can lay blame

for what went wrong

in a system that failed
so many Canadians.

The Supreme Court ruled that yes,

the Commission can lay blame.

"These infections were caused

by the very system Canadians rely upon

to restore their health
in times of illness

or accident."

Well, you must feel a little vindicated.

They quoted the exact
introductory paragraph

you wrote for the factum.

We have work to do.

[KREVER SIGHS HEAVILY]

244 days of public hearings.

353 witnesses.

175,000 documents,

totalling close to a
million pages collected.

1,073 pages.

An undertaking of this
magnitude and complexity

could not have been conducted

without the commitment

and untiring work of so many.

Most of you in this room

gave four years of your
life to this report.

And your efforts, for the most part,

adequately competent.

Will blood and blood products

be safe in Canada in future as a result?

That remains to be seen.

However, what I do not doubt

is that your undying
concern for public welfare

throughout this endeavour

is evidence of the very
best that we have to offer.

The very best.

And I thank you all for that.

Hopefully, it does what it should.

Well, if it doesn't,
we didn't do our job.

"In the pages that follow,

an account is given of a
public health disaster

that was unprecedented in Canada,

and, if we have learned from it,

one that will never occur again... "

"... The process of implementing
HIV antibody testing

was characterized by a failure
of all the major actors

responsible for the
provision of blood services

to heed the clear
indications of urgency... "

"... At the heart of the delay
in introducing HIV testing

was the character of the Red Cross,

the organization most responsible

for ensuring the safety
of the blood supply.

The Red Cross was a tentative
and ineffective decision maker

that recoiled from its responsibility
to make timely decisions... "

"... There is no reasonable explanation

for the length of time it
took the Canadian Red Cross

to prepare the pamphlet about AIDS,

particularly when it is
compared to the time it took

other blood services
throughout the world

to prepare pamphlets or
information sheets... "

"... For its part the
Canadian Blood Committee,

once presented with an
implementation plan to approve,

reacted with routine deliberation

at a time when expeditious
action was required... "

"The effect of the failure

to implement surrogate testing
in Canada is illustrated

by the Blajchman-Feinman study itself,

which confirmed that surrogate testing

would have significantly
reduced the incidence

- of post-transfusion hepatitis... "
- "... was delayed

because the Red Cross was
concerned about inventory,

and subordinated safety in
its ordering of priorities.

It is impossible to avoid
the conclusion that,

if heat-treated concentrates
had been introduced

as soon as possible,

some of the hemophiliacs
who were infected

would have avoided infection... "

"... In the light of what
was known at the time

about the risk of
transfusion-related AIDS

and the measures that were available

to reduce that risk, was enough done?

The answer is no."

"The Red Cross did not carry out

risk-reduction measures assiduously.

It did not appropriately
weigh competing concerns.

Rather, it consistently used the absence

of 'definitive proof'

of a link between AIDS
and blood transfusion

as a justification for
maintaining the status quo...

Its employees or
officials repeatedly... "

"... The regulations governing
preparations from human sources

gave it the authority to
require manufacturers

to institute measures
to screen out donors

who were potentially infected
with bloodborne diseases.

It did not institute this requirement

with respect to AIDS at any
time through the 1980s... "

"... The contamination of
the blood-supply system

was in large measure the
result of the rejection,

or at least the non-acceptance,

of an important tenet in the
philosophy of public health,

action to reduce risk

should not await scientific certainty.

When there was reasonable evidence

that serious infectious diseases

could be transmitted by blood,

the principal actors in the
blood-supply system in Canada

refrained from taking essential
preventative measures

until causation had been proved
with scientific certainty.

The result was a national
public health disaster."

And you said nothing would come of this.

I was wrong.

It's a hell of a challenge.

I'm trying to use natural light
throughout the workspaces

and collect rainwater to
help cool the building.

That's brilliant.

No one thought so at first,

but I badgered them into submission.

You must get that from your mother.

All those years...

you worked so hard.

Yeah, I don't think I ever fully
realized it back then, but...

you deserve more credit

for making things safe for me

and a lot of other guys like me.

I just did what I had to do.

It meant

I wasn't around as much as
I would've wanted to be.

We survived.

How are things with Mom?

Oh... she's fine. She's just...

just working too hard.

It had to be hard on her.

Years of listening

to people's heart-breaking
stories every day.

She's the strongest
person I've ever met.

Take a vacation.

Go to the Bahamas like
you're always talking about.

Take Mom sailing.

[CHUCKLES]

Yeah, maybe.

[RUBY]: Are you home?

Dinner's gonna be late!

My dad said the
recommendations Krever made

should pave the way for compensation

for Hep C victims.

That's great.

Just gotta get the health
ministers on board.

They're balking as usual.

Wanting to exclude people

who got infected before a certain date.

Still trying to pay out as little

as they can possibly...

Come with me.

I want to show you what I bought today.

Don't worry, I can take it back.

I mean, I'm not pregnant yet.

That's good, because we've
been using condoms,

so it would have been
someone else's baby.

[LAUGHS]

Crazy, I know.

I just saw it, and...

I can still get a full refund...

I think we should keep it.

Really?

Jury's still out

on whether Hep C can be
transmitted sexually.

I don't want you to feel pressured.

I know the risks.

[LAUGHS]

Krever's report said

everything we hoped it would say.

That's good.

But seeing all those
other people testifying,

orphans and widows,

families torn apart by this tragedy...

suddenly, I didn't feel so alone.

And what about Ben?

How did he react?

He was glad that they named the people

for the things they did wrong.

But he won't be satisfied

until they're all rotting in jail.

He calls them criminals,
worse sometimes.

I mean, we've all been
driven crazy by this.

I don't even know what
normal is anymore.

I'm just not sure it's about justice.

It's like...

he has to keep moving or...

Or what?

[WILL]: Hey, how'd it go?

Uh, there's nothing physically wrong.

That's good.

She thinks it's depression.

You're kidding.

Well, that's what I said.

I've got so much to be happy about.

Everything's okay,

and I'm gonna be a grandmother.

I don't think depression
means actually being sad.

[SNIFFLES]

I know.

She said that... [SIGHS HEAVILY]

prolonged chronic stress

can create an irregular
hormonal imbalance.

You don't produce the right amounts

of adrenaline and cortisol.

PTSD is a real physiological thing.

So...

Cipralex!

You gonna take it?

[SCOFFS] I can hear my mother now.

"It's just a bunch of
psycho-babble bullshit.

Get over it."

[BANGING PILL BOTTLE TESTILY]

I should've been here more.

I shouldn't have worked so much.

Too many trips...

leave you to look after everything.

This isn't on you.

We both had our battles to fight.

You remember Ryan used to say

that he didn't want anyone
to think he was weak

because he had to take
medication to be normal.

I don't think anyone's going
to accuse you of that.

Damn right. No one's going to know.

I said I would get back
to you with any updates,

- Mr. Landry.
- That was months ago.

You're going to have to be patient.

Maybe it's not murder,

but the Ontario Court
of Appeals decision

in R. v. Sharp, 1984,

held that criminal
negligence required no proof

like intention or deliberation.

Indifference was sufficient.

The Supreme Court of Canada
also considered this issue

in R. v. Waite, 1989, where based on...

- Mr. Landry...
- Yes, I did more homework.

The question is, are you doing yours?

I know I'm not the only one

who's calling for charges to be laid.

These things take time.

Now, I assure you

we have significant
resources devoted to this.

There was a time when I
trusted the powers that be.

Never again.

So if you think I'm just gonna sit back

and allow this to all get
swept under the rug...

Mr. Landry,

I suggest you refrain from anything

that might be misconstrued
as a threatening tone.

I'm not the criminal here!

Those men made decisions that
cost people their lives,

and people are still dying!

So you better fucking
do something about it!

[DOOR SLAMS]

The criminal investigation was expected,

but not so soon.

The RCMP are starting five
weeks earlier than planned

on the strength of new evidence.

Uh, we had people come forward to us

that were...

had specific information

within the blood, uh,
supply system in Canada.

Seriously, it's good news, Dad.

It's what you wanted, right?

They probably got sick
of you harassing them.

Doesn't mean they're laying charges.

They're just launching an investigation.

History is littered with
things that were launched

and came crashing back to Earth.

You need, like, help.

[CRUNCHING]

You know there are other
kinds of sandwiches.

Not in this house.

Not while I'm around.

Seriously, though,

this constant bitterness and anger,

it's not good for you.

Is that your professional opinion now?

Well, I'm not a doctor yet,

but I don't need a degree to see
what you're doing to yourself.

You say that as though
I'm the one in control.

I'm not doing this to myself.

I'm the one trying to take back control.

Dad, control is an illusion.

I mean, I'm not saying
you shouldn't fight.

I'm just saying,

sometimes, you need to
enjoy the little things,

like a completely delicious sandwich

with absolutely no
redeeming health benefits

whatsoever.

Seriously, though,

have you had your blood
pressure checked recently?

Enough!

Sorry.

Brian was being a real
pain in the ass...

Shh...

- [HEARTBEAT WHOOSHING]
- That sounds good.

Yes, good strong heartbeat.

And...

here we go.

There's the head, and the legs...

Everything where it should be.

What happened?

Baby's active.

You don't have to tell me.

Little guy's been kicking
the crap out of me.

She keeps referring to
the baby as a "he."

It's my mom.

She thinks it's a boy,
the way I'm carrying.

But can you actually tell?

No, don't say anything!
I don't want to know.

I want it to be a surprise.

[KNOCK ON DOOR] Will, it's Lawrence!

He wants to talk to both of us.

What are you doing?

I told you I would call a plumber.

It's an easy fix. Just
put him on speakerphone.

- You don't know what you're doing...
- Just put him on speakerphone.

- Hey!
- Hey, Lawrence, what's up?

Well, Provincial and
Federal health ministers

are about to announce a $1.2
billion compensation package

for those infected with Hep C.

- That's great news.
- There was no compassion involved.

You know, their lawyers
told them to settle

only because they knew they'd get
creamed in court with lawsuits.

It was the cheapest way out.

But... it's only for
those who were exposed

between 1986 and 1990,

because there was a test
available at that time

that wasn't used.

Well, that's what we were worried about.

Yeah, we're planning a press conference

for later on in the day after
the official announcement.

Jesus, a lot of people
are gonna be pissed off.

Well...

we'll just have to keep
up the pressure...

[WATER SPRAYING]

[SHRIEKING AND SHOUTING] Oh!

There's a shut-off under the sink!

- A shut-off?
- Under the sink,

- under the sink. It turns the water off.
- Why isn't it off now?

Because you have to turn
it back on to see...

Just never mind. Just
please turn it off!

- Hello?
- It was an easy fix!

Hey, you.

Hey.

What's going on?

You're in labour.

What?

We've actually had this conversation

a few times.

You're in the hospital having a baby.

I am?

That's so nice.

And they gave you some morphine

to help with the pain.

Who brought all the flowers?

They're so pretty.

Maybe a little too much morphine.

I love you.

I love you, too.

[GROANS IN PAIN]

What's that?

You're having a contraction.

[GROANING] Whoa.

Holy shit, that hurts.

Okay, okay, here, let's
breathe... Let's breathe.

[GROANING IN PAIN]

Oh... why don't I have an...

why don't I have an epidural?

It was too early.

[GROANING] Get me an epidural right now!

What?

What's wrong?

That's not a good look. What's going on?

I mean, this is an unusually
long time, isn't it?

I regret not having another child.

Now? You want to talk about that now?

Well, after Ryan, I didn't
think I could handle it,

but now...

Now we're going to enjoy
a healthy grandchild.

And if she's a girl she'll be a carrier.

If it's a boy, the
hemophilia ends right here.

Why couldn't they just find out?

Why do we need suspense and drama?

Why is this taking so damn long?

What?

What's wrong?

Is something wrong?

Why are you crying?

[MARGARET GASPS]

Oh...

- [RUBY]: It's a girl.
- [GASPS IN DELIGHT]

[WILL]: Ryan just scared
the crap out of us.

I couldn't talk. I was... overwhelmed.

Well, it sure wasn't the
easiest thing ever, was it?

She's beautiful.

Sure took long enough.

You're telling me.

[CHUCKLES] Right.

Her name is Mya.

Oh, my God, how could I
forget what this is like?

[WHISPERING] Hello, Mya...

I'm your grandma.

- You did good.
- [LAUGHING]

You did so good.

[WEARILY] Oh, God...

[WHISPERING] I'm your grandmother.

Good evening.

Canadians living the legacy
of the tainted blood tragedy

have waited a long time for this day.

Others didn't live to see it.

After a five-year investigation,

the RCMP has laid criminal charges,

including charges against
the Canadian Red Cross

and several doctors who
were highly placed

in Canada's blood distribution system.

Dr. John Furesz,

Dr. Wark Boucher,

Dr. Roger Perrault,

Dr. Michael Rodell,

and the Armour
Pharmaceutical Company did,

by criminal negligence,

permit or cause to be distributed

Armour HT Factor VIII...

Dr. Perrault is a distinguished
medical practitioner,

and if his health holds out,

he intends to vigorously defend himself

against these charges.

He is simply not a criminal.

[ALICE]: I'm home!

They dropped the investigation

into the Canadian Blood Committee.

"Lack of evidence of criminal intent."

There are lots of other
charges still standing.

The provinces are the ones who
control the purse strings.

They destroy evidence, and nothing.

You think if I walked into
a crowded mall with a gun

and started shooting a bunch of people,

that I'd get off?

_

They began waiting years ago

for an admission of responsibility,

for a public apology.

Thousands of them died waiting.

But the group's resolve never faltered.

Today, in a plea agreement,

Canadians infected by tainted blood

got what they'd sought for so long.

The Canadian Red Cross admitted

it had distributed harmful products.

[DR. DUPLESSIS]: The
Canadian Red Cross Society

is deeply sorry.

[REPORTER]: The deal,

announced publicly in
this Hamilton Courthouse,

forced the Red Cross to admit publicly

what it never has before.

We accepted responsibility
through our plea

for having distributed harmful product.

[REPORTER]: Note the crux of this deal.

The Red Cross did not admit
criminal responsibility;

instead pleaded guilty
to a lesser charge

of violating the Food and Drugs Act.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

[LAWRENCE, ON TV] Satisfied?

How could anyone be satisfied

with what amounts to as
a slap on the wrist?

Only one good came out of today.

For the first time, and
hopefully not the last,

it will go down in history that
this terrible tragedy occurred

because the law was broken.

[PHONE RINGING]

[CAMERA CLICKS]

Can I? May I?

Sure.

Thank you.

Hello.

Come see your grandma.

Hi, honey...

You're a sweet little boy...

Hi, handsome.

Hi!

Do you, um... Do you have a name yet?

Andrew.

After Peter's friend.

Andrew!

Welcome to the world, Andrew.

Hey?

Oh, yeah...

Hey, Papa.

Hey, Mom.

Hi, puppy.

Just got word from my team.

First Hubble images of H2 came in.

What's H2?

A region in space where stars are born.

We call it a "stellar nursery."

Cool.

It figures the first
exposures were taken

when I'm starting mat leave.

My grad students are the first ones

who get to play with the data.

I'd rather play with a new baby.

Well, spoiler alert.

They're not quite as much
fun as you might imagine.

[RUBY]: At least not at first.

- They just sleep a lot.
- [RYAN]: And eat and poop.

That's pretty much it.

Disgusting.

[RUBY LAUGHS]

Looking good.

I helped glue that piece,

and that piece.

She's better than the
interns at the office.

When's it due?

I know, you've told me 10 times, right?

Pregnancy brain, Dad.

[CHUCKLING] Yeah... Four days.

Then the senior partners
review and vote,

and the winning design gets sent
to the client for approval.

Winner gets to build it for real.

Winner?

- [WHISPERS] You mean your father.
- For sure.

Best gluing ever.

[MIMICKING EXPLOSIONS]

[SIGHS]

All right, how can I help here?

I don't know, you want to
plant some shrubs there?

Yes.

[RYAN]: What kind of treatment?

Similar to the previous one,

interferon alfa 2b for 48 weeks.

It didn't work before.

Well, this new treatment combines it

with a broad-spectrum antiviral agent

called Ribavirin.

It's only available
through this new study.

What are the side effects?

Similar to the previous one,

flu-like symptoms, fatigue.

Some people experience depression.

Many do say the Ribavirin
makes it worse.

Solid sales pitch.

So far, we're seeing some
pretty promising results.

"Promising" meaning...

a cure?

Well, we can't actually call it that.

The goal is an undetectable viral level.

Sort of like remission.

Your chances are about 50-50.

That's not very good.

Can it wait?

I'm up for this big project at work.

It's the sort of thing that
could make or break my career.

If the treatment is anything
like it was last time

or even worse,

I'll have to withdraw.

I know you feel okay now,

but we're seeing a higher success rate

when patients still
have a healthy liver.

Frankly, it's better to get
this out of your system

before it becomes a bigger problem.

Unfortunately, these
drugs are only available

through the new study, and
the study starts now.

It'll be okay.

This is my shot.

I pull out of this project,

how far is that gonna set me back?

They'll understand.

Treatment's practically an entire year.

Who knows if they'll even
let me come back afterward?

Then you'll find another job.

And if the treatment doesn't work?

We'll cross that bridge.

I keep trying to live my life,

pretend nothing's wrong.

You know, sometimes, I can
actually fool myself,

and I feel pretty good,

and I forget that I've got
this ticking bomb inside me.

[SIGHS]

So let's get rid of it.

I'm the one who has to go through it.

I'm the one who has to watch you suffer.

You think that's easy?

No.

Think of it like being pregnant.

Nine months of throwing up,

night sweats, and back pain.

And at the end, you get
a pretty great prize.

I only have a 50-50 shot at that prize.

And I shouldn't have to remind you

that you really are pregnant,

and going to have to deal
with an infant soon.

Two if you count me.

We'll get through it.

Your parents will help.

My mother will help.

[CHUCKLES RUEFULLY]

Yeah, I was afraid you'd say that.

Mama like to help.

[DOOR OPENS]

[COUGHING]

[GASPS, WHEEZING]

[PANTING AND GASPING]

[WHEEZING AND COUGHING]

[GASPING AND WHEEZING]

Hi.

The doctor wants to keep you
in here for a few days,

monitor your condition.

- I'm fine.
- You don't know that.

You're a very sick man.

Thanks for the pep talk.

The doctor also stressed
that you take it easy,

avoid any kind of physical exertion.

I was just getting the damn paper.

The point is,

you've had two heart attacks now,

plus open-heart surgery.

You're simply too ill to stand trial.

- _
- [THUNDER RUMBLING, RAIN POURING]

I'm so sorry.

The whole point was to go sailing.

Not the whole point.

Of course, we could have
just stayed at home

and locked our bedroom door.

Our bedroom doesn't have room service.

[TELEPHONE RINGS]

I'll get it.

Hello?

Ben! Hey, what's up?

Criminal trial's just been postponed.

What? Again?

Yeah, I'd say it was a
joke, but it's not funny.

I thought the judge ruled
against Perrault's attempt

- to drop the charges.
- She did,

but now one of the
Crown's expert witnesses

who was hired to review the case

has written a 37-page report.

He says he can't find any basis

- for continuing the criminal charges.
- Seriously?

Yeah, and Perrault's lawyer is on TV

saying the case for prosecutors
has disintegrated.

And has it?

Who the hell knows anymore?

Prosecutors have requested
a two-week adjournment

to seek guidance from
the Attorney General

on whether to proceed. Judge said no.

She's given them three days
to get their act together.

Those sons of bitches are gonna get off.

- Ben...
- Five years!

Five years, and now in 72 hours,

this case could completely fall apart,

and those pricks walk free.

I swear, Will, I don't
know what I'm gonna do.
