0:00:38 > 0:00:42- I'm sure everyone's going to be mighty pleased to have you back. - Great.
0:00:42 > 0:00:45- ELECTRONIC HEARTBEAT - Are you OK?
0:00:45 > 0:00:46CONSOLE BEEPS
0:00:46 > 0:00:49- Can you turn that down to at least mildly deafening? - It's practically on mute.
0:00:49 > 0:00:52I'm surprised you can hear anything over that haircut.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54I now suspect that you'll never learn bedside manner
0:00:54 > 0:00:57until you're out in the trenches, dealing with patients on your own.
0:00:57 > 0:00:58Art-house cinema?
0:00:58 > 0:01:00What were you expecting? Judy Garland?
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Er, I was hoping for Die Hard.
0:01:01 > 0:01:04I thought you might go for the strong, silent type.
0:01:04 > 0:01:07- I think you'll find I've got slightly more refined tastes. - Yeah, well...
0:01:07 > 0:01:09I haven't.
0:01:10 > 0:01:12As well as the surgical aspects of the case,
0:01:12 > 0:01:15it's also important to be aware of Mr Duffy's state of mind.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Right, so the man has an alien-style mutant sucking at his chest.
0:01:18 > 0:01:20What state of mind are we expecting him to be in?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23It's never too late to take you off this case, you know.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24No, you need me.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26No man could face Godzilla alone.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Oh, you've named the tumour. How very mature.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33Just try and remember that the past few months can't have been easy for him.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35Kid gloves would be a good idea.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Yes, so no "alien mutant" or "Godzilla" in front of the patient?
0:01:37 > 0:01:39- Thank you.- OK...
0:01:40 > 0:01:42Mr Duffy, good morning. I'm Mr Valentine, this is Dr March.
0:01:45 > 0:01:46What do you think?
0:01:46 > 0:01:47About what?
0:01:47 > 0:01:49No specs!
0:01:49 > 0:01:52I've been afraid of contacts for years, you know the whole, um...
0:01:54 > 0:01:56And then I thought to myself,
0:01:56 > 0:01:58"You've got a ruddy great tumour growing on your chest,
0:01:58 > 0:02:00"why not live a little?"
0:02:00 > 0:02:01Why not, indeed?
0:02:01 > 0:02:04Shall I, um... Shall I release the kraken?
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Please do.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Actually, we've started getting used to each other.
0:02:10 > 0:02:11I've been calling him...
0:02:13 > 0:02:14..Howard.
0:02:18 > 0:02:20Suction?
0:02:20 > 0:02:21Quiet, please.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23MACHINES BEEP
0:02:24 > 0:02:25Yep.
0:02:25 > 0:02:26Found the bleed.
0:02:26 > 0:02:28What now? 3.0 Prolene?
0:02:28 > 0:02:31OK, you just need to let us work right now, OK?
0:02:31 > 0:02:323.0 Prolene.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35That's just what I said...
0:02:42 > 0:02:44Cut.
0:02:44 > 0:02:46And that looks like it's holding.
0:02:46 > 0:02:47Good work, team.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54Any sign of those biopsy results that have been giving me nightmares?
0:02:54 > 0:02:56Not as of yet.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58But we are chasing them.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01Uh, in the meantime - drum roll, please...
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Your obs are good,
0:03:05 > 0:03:07and your bloods are getting better
0:03:07 > 0:03:09so there's no real reason why we can't discharge you.
0:03:11 > 0:03:13You can't do that to me. I can't go home yet.
0:03:15 > 0:03:16How will I cope without the constant noise,
0:03:16 > 0:03:18the bad food and your lame banter?
0:03:20 > 0:03:21I know it's going to be a bind,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23but you're just going to have to struggle on.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28Um, look, I can try and have a word with Mr Levy
0:03:28 > 0:03:31and perhaps see if we can rush through those results.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Maybe even have you out of here by this afternoon.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Fancy losing a couple of matchsticks before I go?
0:03:38 > 0:03:39PHONE RINGS
0:03:45 > 0:03:48I'm here, I'm smart, why aren't they using me properly?
0:03:48 > 0:03:50You know what? You are so right.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53It must be awful to be an intelligent, capable woman
0:03:53 > 0:03:56and be treated like all you are good for is carrying urine samples.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Wait. Oh, no. That's me.
0:04:00 > 0:04:01It's different.
0:04:01 > 0:04:03NOT that you're not smart.
0:04:03 > 0:04:04You are - all of you.
0:04:04 > 0:04:08You're like one smart gang of nursing ninjas.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Don't lay it on too thick.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12But I want to be a surgeon.
0:04:12 > 0:04:15Sometimes you learn the most standing at the back
0:04:15 > 0:04:16with your mouth shut.
0:04:16 > 0:04:18At this stage, all you need to do
0:04:18 > 0:04:20is make sure you keep getting invited back in the room.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23Thank you. Good talk!
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Well, at this point there is an argument to do the procedure using VATS,
0:04:35 > 0:04:38but the consultant and I prefer the open approach.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41I'll be taking the lead in theatre.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43Can you say that for the camera, please?
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Don't worry, I'm not trying to keep tabs on you.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48It's just the, um...
0:04:48 > 0:04:51Well, everyone else is trying to keep tabs on me.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Ever since the forum realised today's the big day,
0:04:54 > 0:04:56- everyone wants a piece of me.- Forum?
0:04:56 > 0:05:00Yes. The Neurofibromatosis
0:05:00 > 0:05:03Community Forum.
0:05:03 > 0:05:05We... We're working on a better name.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07It's mainly people with the condition,
0:05:07 > 0:05:10plus a few interested parties.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12People who are interested in...tumours?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Now you're making it sound weird.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17No, not really, no. Sorry.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19There are a few strange ones.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22People were wanting to know how big it's going to get or,
0:05:22 > 0:05:25"Can you send me some photos?" You know, that sort of thing.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29Just when you think the dark recesses of the internet couldn't get any creepier...
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Oh, no, mainly it's people with the condition just trying to reach out.
0:05:32 > 0:05:36It started off as an information thing - me trying to understand what was happening to me.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40And then the... Well, the tumour grew into this.
0:05:40 > 0:05:44And the internet thing, it grew into something else.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46Well, now everyone's coming to me for advice.
0:05:46 > 0:05:49Right, well, we'll be back as soon as we've got your blood results. Excuse us.
0:05:51 > 0:05:54Tumour forums. I know what I'm googling when I get home tonight.
0:05:54 > 0:05:57We need FBC, U & Es, group and save, cross match of four units and clotting.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01- We cut no corners on this, OK? - Don't know what you had for breakfast, but it certainly worked.
0:06:01 > 0:06:03- Never seen you so confident.- Really?
0:06:03 > 0:06:05Well, get used to it.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15What you did in theatre, it was...
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Can't WAIT till it's my turn!
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Some nights I dream about having my hand
0:06:21 > 0:06:23inside someone's lower intestine.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Is that weird?
0:06:26 > 0:06:28It's a little bit, but, er, we've all been there.
0:06:28 > 0:06:29Sort of...
0:06:29 > 0:06:31So I've been thinking about my next surgery...
0:06:31 > 0:06:34OK, you're putting the cart a bit before the horse, aren't you?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Usually like to see if the patients need surgery first.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39You're right. I suppose what I meant was,
0:06:39 > 0:06:41when do you think my next surgery will be?
0:06:41 > 0:06:42Come on, you know how this works.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45It's probably going to be somewhere between hard to say and who knows.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48But in the meantime, how can I stretch myself?
0:06:48 > 0:06:50I've got serious adrenaline pumping through me.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52I feel like I can...heal the world!
0:06:52 > 0:06:55OK, well, why don't we start with one patient at a time?
0:06:55 > 0:06:57In the interests of not running before we can walk.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00Beth Musgrove, 75, abdominal pain.
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Go and put that adrenaline to good use.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08That neurofibroma of yours is a bit of a doozy.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Haven't seen one that unusual for a long time.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11- It is and I don't.- What?
0:07:11 > 0:07:13- Need any help. - No, no, you've got me all wrong.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16See, this isn't competitive, give me a shot of the case
0:07:16 > 0:07:18and I'll whip you ten ways to Sunday, Mo. No.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- I'm just really happy for a colleague.- Of course you are.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23But if you do run into any problems and you need a bigger,
0:07:23 > 0:07:24badder registrar to lend a hand...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Er, what's the phrase...?
0:07:26 > 0:07:27"Don't call us, we'll call you."
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Excuse me.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- DOMINIC:- I never been much of a plumber,
0:07:36 > 0:07:38but if this is what you do all day...
0:07:38 > 0:07:40Tea times and lunch breaks only.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42The rest of the time it's one hand down the u-bend,
0:07:42 > 0:07:44while the other holds our trousers up.
0:07:44 > 0:07:45Or not, as the case probably is.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49You know, for a decent bloke, you don't half stereotype people.
0:07:49 > 0:07:52So you've never been caught with your jeans slung down low
0:07:52 > 0:07:56whilst drinking some poor unsuspecting customer out of tea bags?
0:07:57 > 0:07:58Maybe once or twice.
0:07:58 > 0:08:00Once or twice a day.
0:08:00 > 0:08:02HE MOANS
0:08:02 > 0:08:03Are you OK?
0:08:06 > 0:08:07Ooh...
0:08:09 > 0:08:12Do we need alarms on our equipment to stop other departments nicking our stuff?
0:08:12 > 0:08:14He's not taking out, he's bringing in.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Adele. What's the word on the street?
0:08:17 > 0:08:20OK, first of all, never say that again.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Secondly, what makes everyone that think I'm the source of all gossip around here?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Cos you've got a big mouth and we've got ears.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Now spill.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Right, well, according to the ward sister up on neuro,
0:08:31 > 0:08:35Mr Self will be taking over a bay down here...as of today.
0:08:36 > 0:08:37Orders from Mr Hanssen.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40He can't just come in here and start chopping off bits of our ward.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42Can't he? That looks like that's exactly what he's doing...
0:08:43 > 0:08:46I see you've been laid low by a dubious pork pie.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48Homemade?
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Not guilty, doctor.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Bought at the corner shop, so if you want to file charges,
0:08:53 > 0:08:55you can see them.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57May I?
0:08:58 > 0:09:01It's the only thing she had that I haven't.
0:09:01 > 0:09:04Ah, lucky escape. I can't stand pork pies, either.
0:09:04 > 0:09:07The jelly in them makes me feel a bit strange.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10I've always loved them since I was a kid.
0:09:10 > 0:09:13And the jelly, well, that... That's the best bit.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15It's no fun getting older.
0:09:15 > 0:09:16Lucky I've got him to keep me smiling.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20Is this the first time you've had stomach pain after eating?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Oh! You've got to be joking!
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Once upon a time she was like a horse.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29- Now she eats like a rabbit.- Ah!
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Oh! It gets me right here sometimes.
0:09:33 > 0:09:34She'll be right as rain.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37Won't you, love?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39How are we getting on?
0:09:43 > 0:09:45I'm thinking possible ischemic gut.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48I'm just about to order a CT angiogram to confirm.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49OK, sorry about all that. Let's, um,
0:09:49 > 0:09:52let's try and sniff you out something a bit more interesting.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54- I can take over here if you like? - Actually...
0:09:55 > 0:09:58I think I'll stick with Mrs Musgrove.
0:09:58 > 0:10:00OK.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Shall we talk about the procedure?
0:10:05 > 0:10:07No questions? Worries...?
0:10:07 > 0:10:09I haven't slept well since I was diagnosed.
0:10:09 > 0:10:10Do you know why?
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Well, anyone in your position would feel apprehensive.
0:10:13 > 0:10:16I couldn't sleep because I was so worried if this tumour doesn't kill me,
0:10:16 > 0:10:20I might die of boredom sat at my desk one random Tuesday.
0:10:20 > 0:10:21So I quit.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24I walked into my boss' office and I said,
0:10:24 > 0:10:26"You can stuff your job...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29"I've got a life to lead!"
0:10:29 > 0:10:31So...
0:10:31 > 0:10:33you might think the way I spend my time now is a little bit sad...
0:10:35 > 0:10:39..but I can assure you, it's nothing compared to how it was before.
0:10:39 > 0:10:40I didn't mean that...
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Good.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47Well, it all looks good to me. In a few hours I don't see any...
0:10:53 > 0:10:56Care to introduce me to your friends, Oliver?
0:10:58 > 0:11:02I'm not a professional, but stuff that comes out the body shouldn't be green, should it?
0:11:02 > 0:11:04I've seen a few baby's nappies that would beg to differ.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06So it's not one of those superbugs?
0:11:06 > 0:11:08Looks like the common or garden type to me.
0:11:08 > 0:11:10Nasty bacteria, but you'll live.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Just as well.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13We've got a poker game to finish.
0:11:13 > 0:11:14I'm beating him hands down.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20- DOM CLEARS HIS THROAT - So the next step is to clean and dress the wound
0:11:20 > 0:11:23and then we'll get you sorted with some antibiotics.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25More needles.
0:11:25 > 0:11:27Did I mention this is the worst hotel ever?
0:11:27 > 0:11:29We'll be back shortly.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Well, don't you two make a cute couple?
0:11:33 > 0:11:35You do realise people can just be friends?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37Oh, chill out.
0:11:37 > 0:11:38I think it's sweet.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42Neurotic, uptight doctor meets handsome, young plumber...
0:11:42 > 0:11:45I am neither neurotic nor uptight, thank you.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48Oh, come on, you're in classic romcom territory.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50A tenner says he wants to meet you on the roof of Holby
0:11:50 > 0:11:52at New Year's Eve.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55You've really got something wrong with you, haven't you?
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Sleepless in Holby!
0:11:57 > 0:11:58Do you get it?!
0:11:58 > 0:12:00NF1 neurofibromatosis,
0:12:00 > 0:12:03the plexiform neurofibroma already advanced when presented.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06- Family history?- None. Took him completely by surprise,
0:12:06 > 0:12:08which I think is why it took him so long to deal with the growth.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Something the size of Jupiter starts growing out of your chest
0:12:11 > 0:12:14- and most people still think it'll go away on its own? - He's afraid. Alone, I think.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17Oh, well, now he has Ollie Valentine riding to the rescue.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19I know you think this is a step up for me...
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Out of interest, have you found a Yellow Pages to stand on in theatre,
0:12:21 > 0:12:24- or do you still need to borrow one? - I am ready for this.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Jac. What a lovely surprise.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28Bored of mummy time already?
0:12:29 > 0:12:31I, er, thought I'd better show face
0:12:31 > 0:12:34when I heard Hanssen had given Lucifer the keys to half of my ward.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Index finger broken, is it?- What?
0:12:36 > 0:12:39So you have the physicality to operate a telephone,
0:12:39 > 0:12:41just not the brainpower.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43You two are cut from the same tainted cloth.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Careful. It upsets the kiddies to see Mummy and Daddy fighting.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48You have four beds.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Take one step towards a fifth and I'll gut you like a fish
0:12:50 > 0:12:52and enjoy doing it.
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Is this a permanent return or just a quick visit to boost morale?
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- So your maternity leave...- Is over.
0:13:01 > 0:13:03As fascinating as finger painting is,
0:13:03 > 0:13:06- it doesn't quite compare to holding a man's heart in your hands.- No.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10So you'll be keen to get straight back into theatre on your first day and a neurofibroma...
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Unclench, Oliver. I have no interest in your case.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Really?
0:13:14 > 0:13:17I'm here to make sure the hoards of evil don't get overexcited
0:13:17 > 0:13:19and decide to invade Poland.
0:13:19 > 0:13:21The rest of you have done fine so far,
0:13:21 > 0:13:23so keep it up and don't bother me.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29The CT angiogram on Mrs Musgrove
0:13:29 > 0:13:32confirmed it's acute on chronic mesenteric ischemia.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34OK, we need to do a laparotomy straight away
0:13:34 > 0:13:36to assess the extent of that damage.
0:13:36 > 0:13:37Shall I book a theatre?
0:13:37 > 0:13:39Ah.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Um, sorry, when I said "we", I meant Mr Di Lucca and me.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45They're my patients and I've got a bond with them.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Right, well, I'll check with Mr Di Lucca
0:13:48 > 0:13:51and if he's happy for you to scrub in, that's fine with me.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53(Yes!)
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Impeccably handled, Dr Shreve.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Ollie? Mr Duffy's blood results.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Normal, but his BP's a little high for my liking.
0:14:00 > 0:14:01OK, thank you.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05I haven't told you about HER yet, have I?
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Maybe we should close the curtains.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Her name's Sarah.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11I haven't known her for very long, but, er,
0:14:11 > 0:14:13I've bought a ring and everything.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- Sounds romantic.- Dr March?
0:14:16 > 0:14:20Why are we hiding our patient like he's some dirty little secret?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23The last thing that Mr Duffy needs is people staring at him
0:14:23 > 0:14:24like he's an animal at the zoo.
0:14:24 > 0:14:25I don't mind.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28Whoever wants to look at me is more than welcome.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I've never been a CURIOSITY before.
0:14:33 > 0:14:36Well, we're a bit concerned about your blood pressure.
0:14:36 > 0:14:40Try and get some rest and we'll test again.
0:14:40 > 0:14:42Hopefully it's just a glitch.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48Are you afraid somebody's going to catch us saving lives
0:14:48 > 0:14:50and remind us we're here to do the plumbing?
0:14:50 > 0:14:53What he needs is peace and quiet. That means privacy.
0:14:53 > 0:14:55You are the best man for this job - whether she's back or not.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Just keep the curtains closed.
0:14:59 > 0:15:01Right, you, brace yourself.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03This is going to probably sting.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07That'll test a bloke's mettle.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Yeah, well, it's the only thing that works.
0:15:12 > 0:15:15It would hurt a lot more if the infection spread.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Right little ray of sunshine, aren't you?
0:15:17 > 0:15:19Well, when you've seen a man's leg turn black
0:15:19 > 0:15:21and fall off within a matter of hours,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24- it does tend to stick with you. - What...?
0:15:24 > 0:15:25It's a joke.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Anyway, if it did spread,
0:15:28 > 0:15:31I'd catch it way before anything had the chance to fall off.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Cos I'm just that good.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Just when I thought I've got you figured out, Dr Copeland.
0:15:36 > 0:15:40Ah. I'm a mystery wrapped in an enigma,
0:15:40 > 0:15:42and head to toe in berry scrubs.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Whatever you are,
0:15:45 > 0:15:47you're my kind of bloke.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52Um, Jane?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Would you mind finishing up for me?
0:15:55 > 0:15:59Try not to sneeze in the wound before it's been dressed...
0:16:01 > 0:16:02Jac.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06This must be what recurrent herpes feels like.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10I know you must think this is the first step
0:16:10 > 0:16:12in some sort of bid for world domination...
0:16:12 > 0:16:15Actually, I had it more as a petty attempt to irritate me.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17Oh, really? Why would I want to do that?
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Talking of which, how is the flying Scotsman?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25The magical world of cohabiting going well, is it?
0:16:25 > 0:16:27It's called co-parenting and it remains none of your business.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Ah, so the romance didn't last.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32Now, I wonder what the common denominator
0:16:32 > 0:16:34in all these failed relationships is.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37Speaking of failure, I see that Selfie Junior works for me now.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Is this your doing
0:16:39 > 0:16:43or did she just pick a speciality out of a hat like usual?
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Actually, she's quite committed.
0:16:44 > 0:16:46She should be.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51As well as being talented, which I'm sure you'll find out soon enough.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53In fact, if I had my way, I'd have her work for me.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56Well, not everybody falls into line when you snap your claws, do they?
0:16:56 > 0:16:59No, not quite.
0:16:59 > 0:17:02You know my agenda for the move to Darwin is entirely transparent.
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Better resources for the patient,
0:17:04 > 0:17:06more money and prestige for the hospital.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10Going to give me the benefit of the doubt?
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Oh, come on, Jac.
0:17:14 > 0:17:19Prove to us you're not the paranoid narcissist we all think you are.
0:17:19 > 0:17:21Stay on your territory. Keep well away from mine.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Can you see that Mo Effanga gets these notes?
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Patient of hers was transferred down from Keller this morning.
0:17:35 > 0:17:36No problemo.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39- Is that Jac Naylor?- Mm-hm.
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Unless she's figured out a way to clone herself, which...
0:17:42 > 0:17:43ooh...
0:17:43 > 0:17:46The thought of it gives me heebies...
0:17:49 > 0:17:54OK, so, I'm afraid this is as far as you can go, Mr Musgrove.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56She's in good hands, I promise you.
0:17:56 > 0:17:57Yeah, but I just...
0:17:57 > 0:17:59You heard her, you daft thing.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00I'll be fine.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Why don't...
0:18:02 > 0:18:04you go on ahead
0:18:04 > 0:18:05and I'll stay here with you.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07Uh, but I thought you wanted to...
0:18:07 > 0:18:08No. I'll stay.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13So, finally you can tell me the full story of that marriage proposal...
0:18:20 > 0:18:22JAC GROANS
0:18:22 > 0:18:24My neurofibroma case, Will Duffy...
0:18:24 > 0:18:28he has an elevated BP. I'm slightly concerned it might present some complications.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Why is this my problem?
0:18:30 > 0:18:34Look, if this is some sort of a test where you intend to snatch the case off me last minute...
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Try to remember that we're on a world-class surgical ward
0:18:36 > 0:18:38and not in a sandpit.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41I just meant that I'd rather discuss MY case together now,
0:18:41 > 0:18:43than be ambushed later.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46Are you or are you not capable of handling this case?
0:18:46 > 0:18:47I am. 100%.
0:18:47 > 0:18:49Then man up and stop bothering me.
0:18:49 > 0:18:52Otherwise I'm sure Ms Effanga will be more than happy to take over.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58How long have you two been married?
0:19:00 > 0:19:0259 years next October.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06A child-bride, you see.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09I was 17 years old.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11We got married on the Saturday
0:19:11 > 0:19:14and then I was shipped to the forces on the Sunday.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Well, we never really got to know each other.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Not properly...
0:19:22 > 0:19:24..till I was discharged.
0:19:25 > 0:19:2759 years...
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Can you get us to 60, doctor?
0:19:36 > 0:19:37BP's still too high.
0:19:37 > 0:19:41We've had conversations about this, Will. Avoiding stress
0:19:41 > 0:19:42and controlling your diet.
0:19:42 > 0:19:44Sorry.
0:19:45 > 0:19:47This is high-risk surgery, Mr Duffy.
0:19:48 > 0:19:52If there's a possibility of a bleed, blood pressure control is essential.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55Oh, oh, look! I've got two more followers.
0:19:55 > 0:19:58I'll be getting requests for interviews shortly if I'm not careful.
0:19:58 > 0:20:01The only thing that I'm concerned about is you making it through this surgery alive.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03There are risks.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05If you don't understand those risks,
0:20:05 > 0:20:07you can't consent to the surgery. Do you understand?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10You want to save my life, you need to focus.
0:20:10 > 0:20:12I understand.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14Would you like to be interviewed, Dr March?
0:20:14 > 0:20:16You need to rest, Mr Duffy!
0:20:16 > 0:20:18How many times do I need to say it?
0:20:18 > 0:20:19Rest...
0:20:19 > 0:20:20Got it.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22Aye, aye, sir.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25He's a lonely guy, not some bloke in the bushes with a long lens.
0:20:25 > 0:20:28If he wants to turn himself into a sideshow, that's fine with me.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30I need to keep him alive.
0:20:30 > 0:20:31I'm sorry, did I miss something?
0:20:31 > 0:20:34Because the last time I checked you were pretty much on top of things.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37I am...pretty much on top of things. I'm fine.
0:20:38 > 0:20:39Nothing's changed.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44MOBILE BEEPS
0:20:57 > 0:20:58I talked to Will about his camera.
0:20:58 > 0:21:01- He's agreed to dial down his media commitments until after theatre. - Fine.
0:21:03 > 0:21:04Good.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08I know you planned to do this without...
0:21:08 > 0:21:11certain people looking over your shoulder, but nobody wants you to fail.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14I've known Jac a long time.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16And, uh, she's been gone a long time.
0:21:18 > 0:21:19You've got nothing to prove.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26I'm surprised Morven agreed to stay with the old boy.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29She seemed keen as mustard before.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Well, she knows how smart she is, and how capable.
0:21:31 > 0:21:35She just hasn't got the message that it's a marathon, not a sprint.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Assessing the damaged tissue...
0:21:43 > 0:21:45It's been a while since I've seen one this bad.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Indeed.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51This is too far gone.
0:21:51 > 0:21:52She's no small bowel left.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Loop PDS, please?
0:22:01 > 0:22:02Mr Duffy.
0:22:03 > 0:22:06Relax! I'm not going to make you delete your followers.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08That is the right term, isn't it?
0:22:08 > 0:22:10Some people call themselves fans.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12- Their term - not mine.- OK.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15You're sure that I can't go over anything for you?
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Point me in the right direction and do your worst.
0:22:18 > 0:22:19I'm in your capable hands.
0:22:19 > 0:22:23OK, it's just that at the beginning of this process you seemed a lot more,
0:22:23 > 0:22:25well, how do I put it...?
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Uptight? Riddled with anxiety?
0:22:27 > 0:22:29No-one would blame you for being worried.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32You don't need to put a brave face on for me.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35I got a chemistry set for my eighth birthday.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36Right...?
0:22:36 > 0:22:39I never used it cos I was terrified I'd burn the house down
0:22:39 > 0:22:42or die of ingesting poisonous fumes or something.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45I've always been a worst-case-scenario man.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47Then you get a tumour on your chest and you think...
0:22:49 > 0:22:50..the only way is up.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54Well, I suppose it's not uncommon for patients to find
0:22:54 > 0:22:57a new lease of life after this sort of thing.
0:22:57 > 0:23:00And it's all thanks to Howard, here.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02OK, well, uh, as I understand it,
0:23:02 > 0:23:04Howard has dominated your life for quite some time
0:23:04 > 0:23:07and I'm going to change that, get you back to the man you used to be.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10- The man I used to be? - A normal person.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Someone that can do all the things you used to do.
0:23:13 > 0:23:16Anything less than that is a bad outcome for both of us,
0:23:16 > 0:23:17do you understand?
0:23:19 > 0:23:22Anyway, I'm sure that one picture
0:23:22 > 0:23:26isn't going to affect your blood pressure too much,
0:23:26 > 0:23:27so let's go for it.
0:23:29 > 0:23:30After the, um...
0:23:30 > 0:23:33After the surgery, I won't have much in common
0:23:33 > 0:23:36- with the guys on the forum, will I? - Well, that's the plan.
0:23:37 > 0:23:38CAMERA CLICKS
0:23:38 > 0:23:40Right, back in a bit.
0:23:59 > 0:24:02Do you come to the roof for every bloke that sends you a mystery text?
0:24:03 > 0:24:05I was intrigued.
0:24:06 > 0:24:07What is all this?
0:24:07 > 0:24:10I haven't seen you stop for lunch yet, so I thought...
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Me and the blokes at work do this sometimes.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Raid the nearest shop for pasties and pop,
0:24:15 > 0:24:18out comes the trusty picnic basket and here we are.
0:24:18 > 0:24:22So you've prepared me a plumber's picnic in winter?
0:24:22 > 0:24:25Not exactly the couscous and greens you doctors are used to, I take it?
0:24:25 > 0:24:28Couscous is very last year. It's all about quinoa.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Rematch?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34OK.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37But I feel it is my medical duty to say
0:24:37 > 0:24:39that you should not be out of bed.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42I'll forget how to walk and talk if I don't get off that ward for a bit.
0:24:42 > 0:24:46Anyway, with a doc like you treating me, I'm in safe hands,
0:24:46 > 0:24:47aren't I?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51Well, these are trans-fat-tastic.
0:24:53 > 0:24:54Where the flavour is, mate.
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Look, I know it's not much,
0:24:58 > 0:25:01I just wanted to do something to say thank you.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Well, Mr Levy did have something to do with it.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06I'm not talking about the surgery. I mean...
0:25:06 > 0:25:08The sitting with me, chewing the fat.
0:25:08 > 0:25:11I know we didn't exactly, um, gel at first...
0:25:12 > 0:25:16I think oil and water had a more immediate connection.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19You've been a good mate.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Having you about's made this all a bit easier.
0:25:31 > 0:25:35Sorry to interrupt, but, um, I promised Mr Musgrove an update.
0:25:36 > 0:25:38Not much to say, I'm afraid.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41What? So you're closing up already?
0:25:41 > 0:25:43You didn't find any dead bowel?
0:25:45 > 0:25:47What's wrong?
0:25:48 > 0:25:51Oxygen at 100%, please. Thank you.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Mr Duffy?
0:25:53 > 0:25:55Mr Duffy, look at me, please. Thank you.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59Pull up his latest CT, please. OK, now breathe. Breathe for me, Mr Duffy.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02In and out. That's it. In. And out.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06Yeah, tumour's very close to the aorta. The upper lobe's collapsed.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Could be pressing on the lung? Should we hold off on theatre until...
0:26:09 > 0:26:12He's only going to get worse. We need to get him to theatre now.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14- Keep him stable. - Where are you going?- Stable!
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Mrs Harrison almost missed her slot in surgery because we hadn't chased up her CT results.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24I'm really sorry.
0:26:24 > 0:26:27It's on my to-do list, I've just been really swamped.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Swamped or busy with one patient in particular?
0:26:33 > 0:26:37Look, I know Lee must be anxious about these biopsy results,
0:26:37 > 0:26:39but there are other patients on the ward.
0:26:39 > 0:26:42I'm more than aware of that.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44I haven't just been treating him for anxiety all day.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46The wound infection. Yeah, yeah, Fran mentioned.
0:26:46 > 0:26:49Well, on first inspection, it didn't look like much,
0:26:49 > 0:26:51but he will need more antibiotics.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Right, then hook him up and move on.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Come on, you know I hate to crack the whip, but...
0:26:56 > 0:26:57needs must.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I've been trying to move on, but it's difficult. He's...
0:27:00 > 0:27:01needy.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04You know what patients are like when they don't have family.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10Is this something that I should be worried about?
0:27:10 > 0:27:14Uh, well, it's just difficult to disengage with someone
0:27:14 > 0:27:17when they're clearly in need of attention.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19So he's become attached?
0:27:20 > 0:27:24No, no, that's... That's not what I mean, not exactly.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26So what are you talking about?
0:27:26 > 0:27:27Harmless crush or...
0:27:29 > 0:27:30..a stalker?
0:27:30 > 0:27:33I hardly think I need to take out an injunction against the guy,
0:27:33 > 0:27:35if that's what you're implying.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38Well, you can joke about it, but I've seen it happen before.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40Watch your back.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50It became clear almost as soon as we got into theatre
0:27:50 > 0:27:55that the damage to the bowel was much more extensive than we thought.
0:27:55 > 0:27:59So I'm afraid to say I don't feel further surgery is your best option.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01Um, all right, so...
0:28:01 > 0:28:03So what is?
0:28:03 > 0:28:06I think it might be time to think about
0:28:06 > 0:28:08letting nature take its course.
0:28:08 > 0:28:11Oh, so she's well enough to go home?
0:28:12 > 0:28:16No, unfortunately not. Your wife is much sicker than we thought.
0:28:16 > 0:28:19So, erm, does she need to stay here?
0:28:19 > 0:28:21Listen to what the doctor's saying, Hugh.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23I am listening.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28She's got a problem with her bowels, is that right?
0:28:31 > 0:28:34Dr Digby doesn't think we should do any more surgery, Hugh.
0:28:35 > 0:28:38So you can give her medicine to sort it out?
0:28:38 > 0:28:40Hugh, listen.
0:28:41 > 0:28:43He's saying
0:28:43 > 0:28:45it's my time, love.
0:28:47 > 0:28:49We knew it had to happen sometime, didn't we?
0:28:49 > 0:28:52What are you talking about?
0:28:52 > 0:28:54There has...has to be some mistake.
0:28:56 > 0:28:59She came in here with just a spot of tummy trouble.
0:28:59 > 0:29:00That's all.
0:29:00 > 0:29:03Well, you'll just have to run your tests again.
0:29:03 > 0:29:04Oh, Hugh.
0:29:04 > 0:29:06I said,
0:29:06 > 0:29:08"Rerun the tests!"
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Why don't we step out for a while
0:29:11 > 0:29:13and then we can leave you two to talk?
0:29:19 > 0:29:20'Dr Shreve?'
0:29:26 > 0:29:29Are you sure you've looked into everything?
0:29:29 > 0:29:31There must be something else we can do.
0:29:31 > 0:29:34Not everyone can be saved.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36It's one of the toughest parts of the job.
0:29:40 > 0:29:44I'm surprised you let Oliver get his hands on that neurofibroma patient without a fight.
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Or maybe he's been tied up with that for so long,
0:29:46 > 0:29:48I've managed to do three better surgeries already?
0:29:48 > 0:29:51Glad to see some things haven't changed since I've been gone.
0:29:51 > 0:29:52Right back at you.
0:29:52 > 0:29:55- Excuse the interruption, Ms Naylor... - Speak.
0:29:55 > 0:29:57My neurofibroma patient.
0:29:57 > 0:30:00His BP was elevated, now his oxygen levels have crashed through the floor.
0:30:00 > 0:30:02I think the tumour's pushing against his lung.
0:30:02 > 0:30:04He can't wait much longer for theatre.
0:30:04 > 0:30:06So you want me to abandon this patient
0:30:06 > 0:30:07and step in at the last second?
0:30:10 > 0:30:14Take Mrs Dawson back to Darwin and reschedule for tomorrow.
0:30:14 > 0:30:15Mm-hm.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19I gave you a chance to eat at the grown-ups' table and you bottled it.
0:30:19 > 0:30:21Just like you thought I would, right?
0:30:21 > 0:30:23Look, Mr Duffy is my patient.
0:30:23 > 0:30:24This is my chance to prove what I can do.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26Oh, mission accomplished.
0:30:26 > 0:30:29Make sure there's a theatre available and prep Mr Duffy for a thoracoscopic procedure.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32There's a plain between the aorta and the tumour with a narrow pedicle.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34A thoracotomy would be the best shot.
0:30:34 > 0:30:35What?
0:30:35 > 0:30:38Well, open procedure is much better for risk management.
0:30:39 > 0:30:41Well, you'll have to increase the size of the incision...
0:30:43 > 0:30:44Fine. Thoracoscopic it is.
0:31:09 > 0:31:11- ZOSIA:- Charging. Stand clear.
0:31:12 > 0:31:13Shocking.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16Charge again.
0:31:16 > 0:31:18Stand clear.
0:31:19 > 0:31:20Shocking.
0:31:22 > 0:31:24A team in the US have done extensive research
0:31:24 > 0:31:27- into advanced mesenteric ischemia in older patients.- Morven...
0:31:27 > 0:31:30Another team in Sweden back up the study
0:31:30 > 0:31:33and both agree that a small bowel transplant can all but cure the condition.
0:31:33 > 0:31:36I don't see any reason why Mrs Musgrove can't be a candidate.
0:31:36 > 0:31:38OK, forget the transplant.
0:31:38 > 0:31:40- There's nothing more we can do. - What...?
0:31:40 > 0:31:42Look, she'd have only had a 10% chance of survival
0:31:42 > 0:31:44even if she hadn't been so acutely ill.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47And I wouldn't have wished those extra years on anyone.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50If we remove the dead bowel, she can no longer eat or drink.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53She'd have had to be fed through a tube through her neck,
0:31:53 > 0:31:55which would have been invasive and downright miserable.
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Which is why we do the transplant.
0:31:59 > 0:32:02Look, just because we can do more, doesn't mean that we should.
0:32:02 > 0:32:03I'm sorry, I really am.
0:32:05 > 0:32:08You're my superior and I respect your decision making.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10You happy?
0:32:14 > 0:32:16- WILL:- 'Here.
0:32:16 > 0:32:18'Here we go.'
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Impressive, isn't it?
0:32:20 > 0:32:22A lot of doctors say they haven't seen one like this before.
0:32:26 > 0:32:28Now, I know you don't agree with him
0:32:28 > 0:32:30because I could see it in your face.
0:32:30 > 0:32:32Look you have to understand, Mr Musgrove,
0:32:32 > 0:32:34I'm still very junior here.
0:32:34 > 0:32:35Yeah, but you're our doctor.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38You're looking after Beth.
0:32:39 > 0:32:41You get to a certain age, you know,
0:32:41 > 0:32:43when people stop looking at you properly.
0:32:43 > 0:32:47They think we've got one foot in the grave and you don't matter.
0:32:47 > 0:32:49Well, you matter to me.
0:32:49 > 0:32:50Well, please, just...just help us.
0:32:50 > 0:32:54Come on. Just tell me what I should do.
0:32:54 > 0:32:55Anything.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57I really have done my best.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01I even suggested Mrs Musgrove be put forward for a transplant,
0:33:01 > 0:33:03but I'm not senior enough for anyone to listen to me.
0:33:05 > 0:33:06I'm sorry.
0:33:06 > 0:33:09You think I should go to somebody higher up?
0:33:09 > 0:33:10I'm not saying anything.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14Really.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17Please tell me you didn't have a chance to down any coffee or croissants
0:33:17 > 0:33:19before I got down here.
0:33:19 > 0:33:21I got an instant message from some guy in the hospital
0:33:21 > 0:33:24and I thought to myself... Well, this might be the last time.
0:33:24 > 0:33:27The last time that people crowd around you like an oddity?
0:33:27 > 0:33:28I hope so.
0:33:28 > 0:33:31The last chance that anyone might pay attention to me.
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Before this, I was a no-one who wouldn't say boo to a goose.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39I used to go to work,
0:33:39 > 0:33:41refuse people's loans,
0:33:41 > 0:33:43go home, watch TV.
0:33:43 > 0:33:45No interaction, no hope.
0:33:46 > 0:33:48No chance of anything changing.
0:33:48 > 0:33:50And then the tumour happened.
0:33:50 > 0:33:52It gave me confidence.
0:33:52 > 0:33:54I've got friends.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57There's a woman I barely know I'm thinking of asking to marry me.
0:33:57 > 0:33:59I mean, how fantastic is that?
0:33:59 > 0:34:01Look...
0:34:01 > 0:34:03just because you don't like the way things used to be
0:34:03 > 0:34:05doesn't mean you have to go back to that.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07Things don't change. Not really.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09Not deep down.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11Well, I like to think I have.
0:34:11 > 0:34:14What, you're telling me you were once a short, fat, ugly mortgage advisor?
0:34:16 > 0:34:19- Well...- To be honest, the problems of a tall, dark, handsome doctor
0:34:19 > 0:34:22don't really seem that relevant to my life.
0:34:22 > 0:34:23Everyone has problems.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24Things they'd like to change.
0:34:24 > 0:34:26I'd like to change everything.
0:34:27 > 0:34:28You even smell nice.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33Believe it or not, today's a pretty big day for me, too.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Now man up and prove yourself or for ever be overlooked sort of a deal.
0:34:40 > 0:34:42If you don't have this procedure today,
0:34:42 > 0:34:44the tumour will keep getting bigger.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46You won't have a chance to visit all these new friends of yours.
0:34:50 > 0:34:52You need to step up to the plate, Will.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57Bet on yourself because no-one else will.
0:34:58 > 0:35:00Is that what you're doing?
0:35:02 > 0:35:04In it together?
0:35:05 > 0:35:06Sorry.
0:35:12 > 0:35:13Lee...
0:35:15 > 0:35:18Um... You shouldn't be buying me gifts.
0:35:18 > 0:35:22Technically, I gave one of the cleaners 20 quid to get it for me, so...
0:35:22 > 0:35:24Relax. It was just a joke gift.
0:35:24 > 0:35:27You don't have to wear it if it's not your sort of thing.
0:35:27 > 0:35:28It's not that, it's just...
0:35:28 > 0:35:30Just...what?
0:35:32 > 0:35:35You just...you shouldn't be buying me gifts.
0:35:35 > 0:35:36Yeah, you said that bit.
0:35:40 > 0:35:42Look, I am a doctor.
0:35:42 > 0:35:43I'm your doctor.
0:35:43 > 0:35:47And we are not supposed to be friends with our patients.
0:35:50 > 0:35:53(Do you always do what you're supposed to?)
0:36:02 > 0:36:06I have other patients.
0:36:07 > 0:36:09Thank you for the gift.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17- HUGH:- Now you're the one in charge of this place?
0:36:17 > 0:36:20I am Henrik Hanssen, CEO, if that's the question.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23My wife, Beth Musgrove...
0:36:24 > 0:36:26She's down on AAU...
0:36:26 > 0:36:29I'm afraid I'm going to have to stop you right there, Mr Musgrove.
0:36:29 > 0:36:31I am unable to comment on specific cases.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33At least not without an appointment.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36She's dying down there.
0:36:36 > 0:36:39Now, I'm sorry, we're not the sort to make complaints, but...
0:36:41 > 0:36:43..it's my wife we're talking about.
0:36:44 > 0:36:47Well, I do understand how upsetting it can be
0:36:47 > 0:36:49when someone you love is unwell.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Unwell?
0:36:51 > 0:36:52She's not unwell.
0:36:54 > 0:36:57They've said they can do no more for her.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00They won't help her any more.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02There has to be something else.
0:37:03 > 0:37:05There just has to be.
0:37:06 > 0:37:09We can discuss it at length if you would kindly give me some time
0:37:09 > 0:37:11to review your wife's case.
0:37:12 > 0:37:15If I walk out of here, you'll palm me off like the rest of them.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19I'm sorry, I'm staying.
0:37:20 > 0:37:21I'm staying.
0:37:25 > 0:37:27Right.
0:37:27 > 0:37:29I think we should go back down to the ward together.
0:37:29 > 0:37:31Don't you?
0:37:33 > 0:37:34Thank you.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Dissecting the tumour away from the aorta.
0:37:38 > 0:37:40There's a bleed.
0:37:40 > 0:37:41Suction.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Plegit.
0:37:51 > 0:37:54It's too intricate, we need to open him up.
0:37:54 > 0:37:55Quiet.
0:37:55 > 0:37:56LONG BEEPS
0:37:58 > 0:37:59BP's falling.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02OK.
0:38:02 > 0:38:03All right, let's open him up.
0:38:06 > 0:38:09Look, I want you to know that I didn't tell Hugh to do this.
0:38:09 > 0:38:13I never even mentioned Mr Hanssen's name, he must've just...found out.
0:38:15 > 0:38:18He's just trying to do what's best for his wife.
0:38:18 > 0:38:21Don't let anybody say that my Beth doesn't deserve
0:38:21 > 0:38:25all the help, well, that everybody else has had.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28That's most understandable, Mr Musgrove.
0:38:28 > 0:38:30Dr Digby, very glad you could join us.
0:38:30 > 0:38:33Mr Musgrove has some concerns about his wife's case.
0:38:33 > 0:38:34I see.
0:38:34 > 0:38:37Well, there's a transplant she could have,
0:38:37 > 0:38:39only he won't even think about it.
0:38:40 > 0:38:43I will consult with Dr Digby and Dr Shreve.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44Whatever decision is reached,
0:38:44 > 0:38:47you may be sure that it will come with the backing of both myself
0:38:47 > 0:38:49and Holby City Hospital.
0:38:49 > 0:38:51- Thank you very much. - You're welcome.- Thank you.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57Mr Hanssen, I don't know how he thought to go to you.
0:38:57 > 0:38:59I never for one moment suggested it.
0:38:59 > 0:39:02Right, so how did he get the idea of the transplant, then?
0:39:02 > 0:39:05She's was badgering me earlier on the subject after we came out of theatre.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07In private. Between us, that's all.
0:39:07 > 0:39:10So you didn't mention the possibility of a transplant to Mr Musgrove?
0:39:12 > 0:39:15I just wanted him to know that I cared.
0:39:16 > 0:39:18That I'd done everything that I could.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21A simple glance at this poor woman's chart would show
0:39:21 > 0:39:24that Dr Digby's decision making has been beyond reproach.
0:39:24 > 0:39:25And yet somehow you know better?
0:39:25 > 0:39:27No. No, of course not.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31- I just thought...- Look, just give Mr Musgrove a chance
0:39:31 > 0:39:32to process the situation
0:39:32 > 0:39:35and then tell him quietly and calmly that, regrettably,
0:39:35 > 0:39:37- there is nothing more we can do for his wife.- Of course.
0:39:37 > 0:39:39May I have a word, please?
0:39:42 > 0:39:45- JAC:- We may have to put him on bypass.
0:39:45 > 0:39:47- Page the on-call perfusionist. - Can I try something first?
0:39:47 > 0:39:4930 seconds.
0:39:49 > 0:39:50LONG BEEPS CONTINUE
0:39:51 > 0:39:53Foley catheter, please.
0:39:53 > 0:39:54Quickly.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56Thank you.
0:39:56 > 0:39:59If you could put your finger on the bleed, please, Ms Naylor?
0:40:05 > 0:40:07OK.
0:40:14 > 0:40:16REGULAR BEEPS
0:40:20 > 0:40:24Well, it seems you have been paying attention while I've been away.
0:40:29 > 0:40:31I was happy in blissful ignorance until now...
0:40:31 > 0:40:34Now what?
0:40:34 > 0:40:35Come on, you can tell me.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38Sacha's Dr Intercom, I am a model of discretion.
0:40:38 > 0:40:39Spill.
0:40:39 > 0:40:42Well, there might have been something in what you said earlier.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45- AMERICAN ACCENT:- You are Sleepless in Holby!
0:40:45 > 0:40:46- No, I'm not.- Yes, you are!
0:40:46 > 0:40:49- Look at your cheeks going all cute and red.- Stop it!
0:40:49 > 0:40:50Oh, chill out. He's here, he's hot.
0:40:50 > 0:40:52Nothing wrong with a bit of harmless flirting.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Why are you taking this so seriously?
0:40:54 > 0:40:57Well, BECAUSE it is serious, to me.
0:40:57 > 0:40:59You and Lee the plumber.
0:40:59 > 0:41:01- You could be soul-mates!- Oh!
0:41:01 > 0:41:03Oh, come on!
0:41:03 > 0:41:04Scissors.
0:41:06 > 0:41:07Actually...
0:41:07 > 0:41:09you mind if I make the cut?
0:41:18 > 0:41:20Thank you.
0:41:24 > 0:41:25Ms Naylor?
0:41:25 > 0:41:28The tumour has a tail going into the spinal cavity.
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Shall I extract?
0:41:30 > 0:41:31We don't know how far it extends.
0:41:31 > 0:41:33The risk of paralysis is too high.
0:41:33 > 0:41:35We could dissect through a vertebrae?
0:41:35 > 0:41:38Go in through the back, picking the tumour from his spine as we go.
0:41:38 > 0:41:39It's possible.
0:41:39 > 0:41:40We should page Mr Self.
0:41:41 > 0:41:44Mr Duffy deserves the best possible chance.
0:41:47 > 0:41:48Please.
0:41:48 > 0:41:50We need to page Mr Self right now.
0:41:50 > 0:41:53If you're so keen for Mr Self's assistance,
0:41:53 > 0:41:55why don't you go and get him?
0:41:55 > 0:41:57That's a runner's job, don't you think?
0:41:57 > 0:41:58Well, we'll wait here.
0:41:58 > 0:41:59Hurry back.
0:42:06 > 0:42:08- I know you think I've made a mess of this whole thing...- OK,
0:42:08 > 0:42:11I think that you've given a dying woman and her husband false hope.
0:42:11 > 0:42:13Which, in a situation like this,
0:42:13 > 0:42:15I really can't think of anything much worse.
0:42:15 > 0:42:17OK, fine. Fine.
0:42:17 > 0:42:18I screwed up.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22I accept now that Beth's reached the end of the line...
0:42:24 > 0:42:27But, like it or not, they've bonded with me and...
0:42:27 > 0:42:29I've bonded with them.
0:42:30 > 0:42:33So maybe my being there can make this a tiny bit easier on them.
0:42:35 > 0:42:36That's all I want.
0:42:37 > 0:42:39Please.
0:42:42 > 0:42:44- If you contradict me in any way... - I won't.
0:42:44 > 0:42:46I promise.
0:42:56 > 0:42:58So, congratulations.
0:42:59 > 0:43:01Excuse me.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03There's been a complication in theatre.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06A neurofibroma has infiltrated the spinal canal.
0:43:06 > 0:43:08We were wondering if you'd scrub in, remove a vertebrae..
0:43:08 > 0:43:10"We"?
0:43:10 > 0:43:11Ms Naylor and I.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13It's urgent.
0:43:13 > 0:43:16OK, the last time I saw Jac Naylor, battle lines were drawn,
0:43:16 > 0:43:18gauntlets were thrown.
0:43:18 > 0:43:21I would have thought the last place she'd want to see me would be in her theatre.
0:43:21 > 0:43:24Just because she doesn't want your help doesn't mean she doesn't need any.
0:43:24 > 0:43:28Not a fully paid-up member to the cult of Jac Naylor, Dr Valentine?
0:43:29 > 0:43:33OK, I'll scrub in, but I won't barge in on another consultant's procedure.
0:43:33 > 0:43:34I won't set foot in theatre
0:43:34 > 0:43:37unless I get an express invite from the lady herself.
0:43:43 > 0:43:45Oh, what you doing here?
0:43:45 > 0:43:49Cos unless you've come to apologise, we're not interested.
0:43:50 > 0:43:54After discussing your situation with Mr Hanssen, I'm afraid
0:43:54 > 0:43:56nothing has changed.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59We all feel that it's in the best interests of Mrs Musgrove
0:43:59 > 0:44:01if we concentrate on making her comfortable.
0:44:01 > 0:44:02Let her die, you mean.
0:44:02 > 0:44:06Stop her having the transplant that she needs?
0:44:06 > 0:44:09Even if an organ were to become available,
0:44:09 > 0:44:12the chances of any meaningful success are incredibly small.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Beth would be in pain.
0:44:14 > 0:44:16She'd need constant care.
0:44:16 > 0:44:18It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
0:44:18 > 0:44:20I'd do it.
0:44:20 > 0:44:22Whatever she needs.
0:44:22 > 0:44:25Look, we know that you'd do whatever it took.
0:44:25 > 0:44:27Well...
0:44:27 > 0:44:29She's... She's everything.
0:44:32 > 0:44:36Look, I thought holding on to Beth's life was the most important thing.
0:44:38 > 0:44:41But maybe holding onto the life you had together is more important.
0:44:43 > 0:44:45If we do the transplant,
0:44:45 > 0:44:47you wouldn't have to grieve for Beth just yet...
0:44:49 > 0:44:51..but you would have to watch her suffer.
0:44:53 > 0:44:56I think that's a bit worse, don't you?
0:44:57 > 0:45:00Oh, I... I don't know.
0:45:01 > 0:45:0459 wonderful years.
0:45:06 > 0:45:08Let's not spoil it now.
0:45:09 > 0:45:10Listen...
0:45:11 > 0:45:14I... I can't go home
0:45:14 > 0:45:15without you.
0:45:17 > 0:45:19Without YOU!
0:45:25 > 0:45:27Mr Self has agreed to join us -
0:45:27 > 0:45:29with one small condition.
0:45:29 > 0:45:31He wants to hear it from you.
0:45:31 > 0:45:35What is it about simple instructions you find so challenging?
0:45:36 > 0:45:39Right, Jac, that's me ready to scrub in.
0:45:39 > 0:45:41I'll just wait for your nod.
0:45:43 > 0:45:45He said he couldn't in all good conscience
0:45:45 > 0:45:49barge in on a peer's surgery without an express invitation.
0:45:49 > 0:45:52I think maybe a simple "You're needed," would suffice.
0:45:54 > 0:45:57Inform Mr Self that he's no longer required.
0:45:57 > 0:45:59Don't.
0:45:59 > 0:46:01I know you're the mighty Jac Naylor
0:46:01 > 0:46:03and while you might be competent to do this procedure,
0:46:03 > 0:46:06you are not the best person for the job. Not on this occasion.
0:46:06 > 0:46:10So either you say whatever you need to Mr Self to get him in here...
0:46:10 > 0:46:12or I go to Mr Hanssen.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15It's your choice.
0:46:20 > 0:46:22Get in here.
0:46:24 > 0:46:26There, now.
0:46:26 > 0:46:27That wasn't so hard, was it?
0:46:36 > 0:46:37Hey.
0:46:41 > 0:46:44It'll be better than home by the time you're done.
0:46:47 > 0:46:49I think I'll just go and get a cup of tea.
0:46:51 > 0:46:54He's used to barking orders and people falling into line.
0:46:56 > 0:46:58Not being in control doesn't suit him.
0:46:58 > 0:47:02My grandma always used to say that men find things like this harder.
0:47:03 > 0:47:05Change, I mean.
0:47:05 > 0:47:06I knew it.
0:47:06 > 0:47:10Clever girls always spend time listening to their grandmas.
0:47:11 > 0:47:14Well, um, my mum walked out when I was little,
0:47:14 > 0:47:16so she practically brought me up.
0:47:18 > 0:47:19We never had kids.
0:47:19 > 0:47:21Just weren't blessed that way.
0:47:22 > 0:47:24That's how it was back then.
0:47:25 > 0:47:27You say you're over it, but...
0:47:28 > 0:47:30..you never really are.
0:47:32 > 0:47:33Oh!
0:47:34 > 0:47:36Listen to me going all soft.
0:47:39 > 0:47:42You don't have to dash off, do you?
0:47:50 > 0:47:52- Ah.- Hey.
0:47:52 > 0:47:54I thought you'd be on the ward taking a lap of honour.
0:47:54 > 0:47:56Turns out I wasn't required for the curtain call.
0:47:56 > 0:47:58OK.
0:48:01 > 0:48:05I took a risk in theatre, I spoke to Jac as a peer because I had no other choice...
0:48:07 > 0:48:09I really thought that that was my moment to shine.
0:48:09 > 0:48:13That Jac might actually be impressed by how much I'd grown as a surgeon.
0:48:13 > 0:48:16But she still sees me as a timid little F1, not fit to lick her boots.
0:48:16 > 0:48:18To hell with Jac.
0:48:18 > 0:48:22If she thinks treating people badly is going to get the best out of them, then more fool her.
0:48:22 > 0:48:25You don't get it. She doesn't think how to get the best out of us,
0:48:25 > 0:48:28because she doesn't care about any of us.
0:48:28 > 0:48:30In the world of Jac, there is only Jac.
0:48:31 > 0:48:33OK.
0:48:33 > 0:48:36You have a patient who's awake in recovery and he's asking after you.
0:48:36 > 0:48:40I don't think he got the memo about how lowly and pointless you are.
0:48:44 > 0:48:47DOOR CLOSES
0:48:47 > 0:48:50There must be something else I could do.
0:48:50 > 0:48:52Maybe if we transferred you to another hospital...
0:48:52 > 0:48:54It's nature.
0:48:54 > 0:48:55No stopping it.
0:48:58 > 0:48:59I don't want to go angry.
0:49:00 > 0:49:04But I can't go quietly unless I know Hugh's going to be all right.
0:49:06 > 0:49:08I don't mean all right, cos who is?
0:49:08 > 0:49:10But...
0:49:10 > 0:49:12just...
0:49:12 > 0:49:13at peace with it.
0:49:15 > 0:49:18He keeps saying, "This is our time."
0:49:20 > 0:49:22But the truth is, we've had it.
0:49:22 > 0:49:25Our real time was when we were young
0:49:25 > 0:49:28and we had all the time in the world to enjoy it.
0:49:30 > 0:49:32Just...
0:49:32 > 0:49:34went too quick
0:49:34 > 0:49:36is the trouble.
0:49:37 > 0:49:39I know he's been kicking up an awful fuss.
0:49:41 > 0:49:42Will you help me with him?
0:49:44 > 0:49:46I don't want him to be on his own...
0:49:47 > 0:49:49..when I go.
0:49:53 > 0:49:55Ooh, a vest-top!
0:49:55 > 0:49:57Very early-'90s.
0:49:59 > 0:50:01Actually, it was a present.
0:50:01 > 0:50:02From Lee.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04He's buying you presents now?
0:50:07 > 0:50:10I know I've taken the mick a bit today,
0:50:10 > 0:50:12but if I've pushed things too far, then I'm sorry.
0:50:12 > 0:50:13No, you haven't.
0:50:13 > 0:50:15It's...actually...
0:50:16 > 0:50:19..kind of made me see what was under my nose all along.
0:50:20 > 0:50:22A failed attempt at facial hair?
0:50:23 > 0:50:25Why do you find this all so amusing?
0:50:25 > 0:50:28Oh, I'm sorry.
0:50:28 > 0:50:32I thought we were just having a laugh.
0:50:32 > 0:50:34I had no idea you were being serious.
0:50:35 > 0:50:37Dom, he's a patient.
0:50:37 > 0:50:39You've only known him five minutes.
0:50:39 > 0:50:42Yeah, but I feel like I've got more in common with him
0:50:42 > 0:50:44than I have done with anyone for ages.
0:50:45 > 0:50:47Don't worry, I'm not about to run off
0:50:47 > 0:50:50and get married in matching vest tops.
0:50:50 > 0:50:53But there's something there.
0:50:53 > 0:50:55And he's not going to be a patient for ever.
0:51:03 > 0:51:06Howard is exactly where he belongs.
0:51:06 > 0:51:08Headed for the incinerator.
0:51:10 > 0:51:12I think I was dreaming when I was under.
0:51:12 > 0:51:15Mainly mortgage applications and tax returns.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19Perhaps I should ring my boss.
0:51:19 > 0:51:21Plead insanity, ask for my job back.
0:51:21 > 0:51:23Don't you dare.
0:51:25 > 0:51:26You're not the man you were.
0:51:26 > 0:51:28Embrace the new you.
0:51:29 > 0:51:32I think it was just the surgery talking.
0:51:32 > 0:51:34You know, thinking I might die.
0:51:34 > 0:51:38Trying to grab life by the danglies.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40Yeah, well, that's probably got something to do with it.
0:51:40 > 0:51:42Doesn't make it any less real.
0:51:42 > 0:51:46I could always work for, you know, a different company.
0:51:46 > 0:51:47A nicer one.
0:51:47 > 0:51:51Everybody needs a number cruncher, don't they?
0:51:51 > 0:51:53Fine. But don't lose those contacts.
0:51:53 > 0:51:55They're a must.
0:51:55 > 0:51:56Do you think so?
0:51:59 > 0:52:02Here... I don't still have to propose to Sarah, do I?
0:52:03 > 0:52:07We've... We've only been on two dates.
0:52:07 > 0:52:08I might be rushing things a bit.
0:52:08 > 0:52:11You've got the whole of the rest of your life ahead of you.
0:52:11 > 0:52:13Why don't you try and strike a happy medium?
0:52:15 > 0:52:17(Yeah.)
0:52:17 > 0:52:19I haven't said thank you.
0:52:19 > 0:52:21Without you pushing me,
0:52:21 > 0:52:24I'd probably be a bloke attached to a tumour for the rest of my days.
0:52:24 > 0:52:26All part of the service.
0:52:26 > 0:52:27That, I doubt.
0:52:27 > 0:52:31Anyway, look, we know how it turned out for me.
0:52:31 > 0:52:33How was it for you?
0:52:33 > 0:52:36Well, let's just say that my part of the bargain didn't exactly go
0:52:36 > 0:52:38according to plan.
0:52:38 > 0:52:39Ah, ha.
0:52:39 > 0:52:42Um, time to try again.
0:52:42 > 0:52:46Time to step up to the plate, Dr Valentine,
0:52:46 > 0:52:48and bet on yourself.
0:52:48 > 0:52:49No-one else will.
0:52:58 > 0:53:00So...
0:53:01 > 0:53:02..I have a confession to make.
0:53:03 > 0:53:08That stunt I pulled in theatre might have been a tiny bit about irritating you.
0:53:08 > 0:53:12Next on today's edition of Stating The Obvious...
0:53:12 > 0:53:15But I have no intention of threatening your tenure on Darwin.
0:53:15 > 0:53:18My tiny little fiefdom is more than enough.
0:53:18 > 0:53:20Truce?
0:53:21 > 0:53:24OK, so can I tell Hanssen we're one happy family?
0:53:24 > 0:53:27You can tell him I've reconsidered killing you in your sleep.
0:53:27 > 0:53:30- After that, we'll have to see how it goes.- Fair enough.
0:53:30 > 0:53:34You know, Jac, if today proved anything,
0:53:34 > 0:53:37it's that it might not be a bad idea for us to have our two specialties side by side.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41We did make quite a team in there.
0:53:41 > 0:53:43I don't do teams.
0:53:43 > 0:53:45Well, you might just have to learn.
0:53:53 > 0:53:56# Why do birds suddenly appear
0:53:57 > 0:54:00# Every time you're near?
0:54:01 > 0:54:07# Just like me, they long to be close to you. #
0:54:12 > 0:54:16CONTINUOUS BEEP
0:54:34 > 0:54:35Locker room's that way.
0:54:35 > 0:54:37What are you going to do for us?
0:54:37 > 0:54:39Zosia, Mo and I.
0:54:39 > 0:54:42The other registrars, the F1s, F2s, everyone who's here to learn.
0:54:42 > 0:54:44What are you going to do for us?
0:54:44 > 0:54:47I don't know if you'd noticed, but everyone's been falling over backwards
0:54:47 > 0:54:48trying to impress you today.
0:54:48 > 0:54:51It's hardly my fault if you have confidence issues.
0:54:51 > 0:54:53Oh, this is your ward. I get that.
0:54:53 > 0:54:56Running this place must feel colossal at times.
0:54:56 > 0:54:58Because it is colossal.
0:54:58 > 0:55:00But you have a whole team at your disposal
0:55:00 > 0:55:02and you're trying to do everything yourself.
0:55:02 > 0:55:06- What you said in theatre was gross insubordination.- I know.
0:55:07 > 0:55:09But it was something you needed to hear.
0:55:11 > 0:55:13So you are all grown up, after all.
0:55:14 > 0:55:15You're welcome.
0:55:15 > 0:55:17What?
0:55:17 > 0:55:20It is not my job to mollycoddle you or hold your hand.
0:55:22 > 0:55:24This was a test?
0:55:27 > 0:55:29Oh, you've been playing me.
0:55:29 > 0:55:31All day.
0:55:31 > 0:55:33It's come to my attention that I'll need a team around me.
0:55:33 > 0:55:35Are you in?
0:55:37 > 0:55:39100%.
0:55:48 > 0:55:49Morven?
0:55:53 > 0:55:57I didn't get into medicine so I could decide who lives and who dies.
0:55:58 > 0:56:00I wanted to help people.
0:56:02 > 0:56:04I sound about ten, don't I?
0:56:04 > 0:56:07You sound like every decent doctor that I've ever met.
0:56:07 > 0:56:10These decisions, they don't get any easier.
0:56:10 > 0:56:13You sort of wouldn't want them to, really.
0:56:13 > 0:56:15We have all this science at our disposal
0:56:15 > 0:56:18and yet we still can't give two people who love each other
0:56:18 > 0:56:20just one more year together.
0:56:20 > 0:56:23It's... It's... It's never easy losing a patient.
0:56:23 > 0:56:25This isn't about death, Dr Digby.
0:56:25 > 0:56:26I've seen death.
0:56:28 > 0:56:30How can you go through a day like today and not feel like
0:56:30 > 0:56:33everything you've ever learned or achieved amounts to nothing?
0:56:33 > 0:56:36Well, we helped Mrs Musgrove today.
0:56:36 > 0:56:38Just because we didn't save her,
0:56:38 > 0:56:40that doesn't lessen the good that we did.
0:56:40 > 0:56:42You just think that I'm some naive little kid
0:56:42 > 0:56:46- that'll get used to this sort of thing eventually, don't you? - I don't think you're naive.
0:56:46 > 0:56:48You will get used to it.
0:56:48 > 0:56:50Look, I know I was wrong to suggest the transplant.
0:56:50 > 0:56:52I know letting her go was the right thing to do.
0:56:52 > 0:56:54But I will never get used to it.
0:56:54 > 0:56:56And I will be a better doctor because of it.
0:56:57 > 0:57:00I think, maybe, you and I see medicine differently and...
0:57:01 > 0:57:03..I'm glad about that.
0:57:05 > 0:57:06You're cold, Arthur.
0:57:11 > 0:57:13You do realise this makes us superheroes, don't you?
0:57:13 > 0:57:15How so?
0:57:15 > 0:57:18Well, we defeated Godzilla with a minimal amount of casualties.
0:57:18 > 0:57:20My sanity almost being one of them.
0:57:20 > 0:57:22Mr Duffy can go back to his new life,
0:57:22 > 0:57:25and we can say we helped remove one of the most unusual neurofibromas
0:57:25 > 0:57:27the world has ever seen...
0:57:27 > 0:57:29And everyone lived happily ever after.
