00:00Previously on Shortland Street.
00:01As you know, Dr. Ropat is joining us short term to lead a landmark case.
00:05I would love to be involved.
00:06And me.
00:07Yeah, happy to put my hand up.
00:09You wanted it.
00:10I wanted to be considered at least. I'm not even a contender.
00:12So I have to be careful.
00:14Consideration. Dr. Grayson will be leading the surgery.
00:16I won't be discussing it. It's done.
00:18One delivery, one time, nobody gets hurt.
00:22You know, you were always overly cautious, Tyler.
00:25But this one, she doesn't blink.
00:40I didn't pay for the heartwarming.
00:43Hi, guys. How are you?
00:45First delivery goes through the endoban around the back to the main supply.
00:49Which is what we want.
00:50Yes.
00:51Okay, and the cameras?
00:53Just wait.
00:54So what? We're going to...
00:55We're going to intercept the delivery driver as they come around the back.
00:57I double-booked the pharmacy technicians on deliveries.
01:00All we have to do is show up, load up, and bounce. Okay?
01:03Can they trace that?
01:05No.
01:05The courier's going to know straight away that something's wrong.
01:08No, he won't.
01:09You don't know that.
01:10Poppy, I need you to just worry about your part of the plan.
01:13Okay. I just want to be across everything.
01:16Okay, right. So what's that window? Like, ten minutes?
01:18No, if we're lucky. We've got to be fast.
01:20Well, that is a shame, because I was hoping to piss around in the back of the van.
01:23Can we not be sarcastic right now?
01:25CCTV is operating on the gates, which means they've probably got the plates to this vehicle.
01:29Well, luckily it's not mine, then.
01:31Well, whose car is it?
01:32Yeah, we're in a blind spot right now.
01:34Okay, we need to be seen walking in on camera.
01:37Okay?
01:39Let's go.
01:40Wait.
01:41Poppy, we haven't got time to wait. We'll go through any of your questions.
01:44Okay?
01:46Let's go.
01:48Trouble in paradise?
01:51Shut up.
01:59Yes, I am the youngest person to be doing the surgery, but I am very privileged to be given that
02:04challenge.
02:05All right, team?
02:06Could you guys just huddle up somewhere else? Thank you.
02:10Sure.
02:12Yes, but I really do have to wrap this up now.
02:14It's been wonderful talking to you.
02:16Okay, thank you.
02:18Judy calls.
02:19Well done. You didn't sound like you at all.
02:21In the best way.
02:22If you're done showcasing your skills to the media, perhaps you would like to join us, Dr. Grayson?
02:27Yes, definitely.
02:29See you later, superstar.
02:30Okay, so I have an appendectomy that needs to be sorted, presented in ED earlier this morning.
02:36Maybe superstar should do it?
02:38Shut up.
02:39I'll take it.
02:40Really? It's a good one for Izzy.
02:41Oh, I've got my morning filled with consults.
02:45But I can make the time.
02:47I'm happy to do it. This team is severely lacking in morale and camaraderie.
02:51Couldn't agree more.
02:53You're right, Naz. This whole fetus and fetal procedure has made us put our egos here to the patients.
02:59Totally.
03:01And I just, I wanted to acknowledge that I've learnt so much from all of you.
03:07And this isn't just going to be a win for me, but also the hospital, which includes all of you.
03:16What are you doing?
03:24Okay, how did you do that?
03:27You can't use that, Ty.
03:29We might need it to access the building.
03:31What, and they're going to think that it's Emmett?
03:32He's in the Ark. No one's going to think that.
03:34Yeah, but they might think he's got something to do with it.
03:36The guy who's recovering from brain surgery.
03:38He can't even remember where he parked his car, Poppy.
03:41I don't want him involved.
03:42He's not. It's better him than someone else.
03:44This isn't right, Ty.
03:46You don't have to use it.
03:48That's not the point.
03:49He's...
03:50He means a lot to me.
03:52Okay, and I would never forgive myself if I was the reason that he got arrested or fired or worse.
03:57It's fine.
03:58Okay, he's going to be fine.
04:01I don't think I can do this.
04:06So you're backing out?
04:09Yeah.
04:10Yeah, I am.
04:13Okay.
04:14I don't want to be these people.
04:16Neither do I, Poppy.
04:18I leave.
04:21Just grab him a drink bottle.
04:23Don't mind me, Davis.
04:29See you soon.
04:36Dr. Ropata, I was just going over some of the notes you put in about the fetus and fetus excision.
04:44Just about the value of long-term alpha-fetoprotein monitoring.
04:49You guys don't need to be here for this?
04:51Yeah, we do.
04:52You might want to find a seat.
04:56Phil, I won't be assisting you on the surgery.
04:59What?
05:00And I think it's wildly unprofessional that Paul has made you lead surgeon.
05:04Fine.
05:05What about you?
05:06No.
05:07Come on.
05:09Chris?
05:10Collectively, it's enough.
05:11What about unity?
05:12You big, stupid speech.
05:13Yeah.
05:13It's a team decision.
05:15But I'm in the team, too.
05:16It's also about you, Phil, and your career, your future.
05:21Oh, you're all just jealous.
05:23No, Phil.
05:24You need to accept this.
05:25You'll think you know what's best for me.
05:26And I'm always the last resort.
05:28But I'm good.
05:28I'm really good at what I do.
05:30Probably better than you were at my age, Chris.
05:32Phil, come on.
05:33No, I'm doing the surgery.
05:34And if you don't want to be a part of this monumental chapter in this hospital, then...
05:38Take a step back.
05:40See if I care.
05:44Hey, hey, hey.
05:46Hey, didn't you leave home early?
05:47Uh, yeah.
05:47Yeah, why?
05:48Emma's looking for you.
05:51You look madder than my cousin's pony.
05:53You're going to bite my ass and bolt home, too?
05:55Um, just having a blue with Poppy.
05:57Well, isn't that sort of your guys' thing?
05:59You know, you fight and kiss and fight and kiss and fight.
06:01She has a point.
06:02No, no.
06:04You've got another secret identity.
06:06Is it James, Ashley, Tyson?
06:08Yeah, okay, just drop it.
06:09Cool.
06:11You know you can tell us anything.
06:12Hey, like, we've got your back.
06:14Always.
06:14I don't get why you guys keep digging around in my life.
06:16I know I live with you, but I don't owe you anything, all right?
06:19So just back off.
06:20I know you can be a dick sometimes for Carl, man.
06:24Well, so we're not friends anymore?
06:26He's going to go after your girlfriend?
06:27Yeah.
06:32Yeah.
06:32Sweet as.
06:35Yeah, good.
06:39Can you believe her?
06:41Unfortunately, yes.
06:43We can't keep delaying.
06:45We need to transfer to Central.
06:47I'll talk to Paul.
06:48No.
06:49I'll give Central Surgical Department a call.
06:52Get them to put some pressure on him.
06:54You don't make it easy to help you, do you?
06:56Well, I've never needed your help to get what I want.
06:58No, but some people like having someone in their corner.
07:03Go on, then.
07:06Try your dental parenting with Paul.
07:16Could you clarify what you meant by organised tissue?
07:20It's in the notes.
07:23Yep, it would just...
07:25It'd be a lot quicker if you could just clarify what you meant now.
07:28Nope.
07:32Everyone that was put up for that surgery
07:34had some legacy name that they could throw around to use to get ahead,
07:38except you or me.
07:39It's not what it's about.
07:40I could definitely do this if you were there.
07:42Please.
07:44Maybe we could.
07:45But this is someone's life.
07:47A life I'm not willing to test that theory on for your ego or mine.
07:51You just love playing high and mighty, don't you?
07:53Are you serious?
07:55I'm sorry.
07:56How dare you put this woman's life at risk?
07:59What for your career?
08:01You have no clue what you're doing
08:03and refuse to listen to anyone stupid enough to try and help you.
08:06I hope you're ready for the consequences of this choice.
08:08Because I certainly wouldn't be able to live with myself
08:11if I was the reason it failed.
08:17I thought you'd had enough of this place.
08:19You developed an allergy to apples last year.
08:22Your throat might close up.
08:23What?
08:24I've seen him eat apples loads of times.
08:26Yeah, was it apples?
08:27Sorry, I honestly just can't quit.
08:29Remember.
08:31What, are you kidding me?
08:32It was definitely a fruit.
08:34Or was it a legume?
08:35Cody, was it a fruit or was it a legume?
08:37If I had stuck this in me, I could have died.
08:39If it were only that easy.
08:41Sorry, can you just raise your arm for me?
08:43Great.
08:44Now stand up.
08:45And walk that way.
08:47Keep walking.
08:48Reception will discharge you.
08:49You are fine.
08:51Not bad.
08:52Meeting here we are at.
08:59How are you going to know if anyone's noticed you gone?
09:01How am I going to leave in the first place is more my question.
09:04And what's the side of my bloody project today?
09:07Oi, Julia.
09:08That's my nurse, not yours.
09:10I was just asking...
09:12Don't care.
09:13Look, I need you to help me get him off my back.
09:14Sorry.
09:16Am I speaking a foreign language here?
09:19Bugger off.
09:20You can do your tortured romance on your break.
09:23Please.
09:25What about this patient?
09:27Crane's been on my arse about bringing him to ED's presented with chest pain and shortness of breath.
09:33What's he done now?
09:34Lost one of our patients.
09:36That specifically needs to be admitted through ED.
09:39Yeah.
09:40Yeah, sorry.
09:41He must have just wandered off.
09:43Well, go and find him before you're wheeling him to the mall.
09:47That boy's got nothing but wind between his ears.
09:52Go.
09:53Just go.
09:58Yes.
10:01You need to transfer the fetus and fetus surgery to central.
10:05No.
10:06The answer's no.
10:08So you can go now.
10:10Putting Phil in charge of this surgery is not just dangerous for the patient.
10:15It will traumatise her as well.
10:17She told me she's capable.
10:19And I believe her.
10:20Well, of course she thinks she can do it.
10:22Careful, Chris.
10:23You don't understand what you're doing, you know?
10:26If I'd grown up with the resources you had, I would be Elon Musk.
10:30Without the...
10:31delusion.
10:33I wouldn't be using my privilege to lord over a hospital.
10:37I'm not lording over anything.
10:39Please don't interrupt me.
10:40You, Dr. Samuels and Dr. Bill Potter have had your pick of surgeries because of your last names.
10:45You never needed to be a surgeon, did you?
10:47Your family had the money for you to do anything you liked.
10:51You're here because you want control.
10:54How dare you?
10:56I don't come from the same world as you, Chris.
10:58I didn't get private schools and ski trips.
11:00I had to work really hard to get where I am.
11:02It's not about you.
11:04Or me.
11:05It's about that woman and her life.
11:08It is incredible, actually, that you have the balls to come in here and pretend this is about ethics
11:13when really you're just not getting what you want for once.
11:15You don't know me, Paul.
11:17I know enough.
11:18Now get out.
11:32Put these on.
11:35Poppy's out.
11:36She bloody what?
11:38Don't worry about it.
11:39Well, I am worried about it, Tyler.
11:42Because if you and I get caught, we are screwed.
11:45That's not going to happen.
11:47Are you trying to get me caught?
11:49Just relax.
11:50Don't tell me to relax, you little prick.
11:53Tyler!
11:54You all right?
11:56Yeah, we're good.
11:58You sure?
12:00Yeah, we're all good.
12:03All right, well.
12:04I'll see you in there.
12:10You need to get your shit together, otherwise we're going to get caught.
12:12Right?
12:13I understand you're pissed off right now, but this is what we're working with.
12:16So deal with it.
12:18Oh, God's sakes.
12:20Do that in the car, you muppet.
12:29I see you there.
12:32Come here.
12:37Where's my nurse?
12:39Who?
12:41Don't get cute.
12:42Look, don't you have a department to run?
12:44Yes, I do.
12:45Give him back to me.
12:47I don't have him.
12:48Where is he, then?
12:50He's...
12:51Spit it out.
12:53He's taking a shower, okay?
12:55Why the bloody hell would he be taking a shower?
12:58Fluids.
12:59You said the patient had chest pain.
13:01Yeah, well, you know how things can turn on a dime.
13:04Uh-huh.
13:05Okay, look, if he's not back with me in ten minutes, I'm crashing his shower time.
13:09Do you understand?
13:10And get that freaked out possum look off your face, patient.
13:14I don't want to see a scared doctor.
13:15Okay.
13:21Dr. Dove, how are you?
13:24Good.
13:25Good.
13:26I have a very special opportunity for you.
13:28I've been keeping an eye on the work you do around here, and...
13:31And I think you might be the right candidate.
13:34Okay.
13:35For big surgery today, I want you to assist.
13:38Opportunity of a lifetime, I know.
13:41But I think you might be up for the task.
13:44I am grateful that you thought of me.
13:47It's just that I'm loyal to the surgical team, and to you, of course.
13:53Yes, but I'm the CEO.
13:55Yes, but Dr. Dallbutter's my mum.
13:58Well, think about how proud she'd be.
14:00I'm sorry, Paul.
14:02Going near that procedure is not worth having everyone on the surgical team hate me.
14:06Well, if you want Dove to mean nothing around here, go ahead.
14:10Say no.
14:11You must be bored.
14:14I'm a bit tired of these newbies frolicking about like it's a music festival.
14:17What would you know about those?
14:20You don't have to follow me around, you know.
14:22I'm not.
14:24She's not going to jump out of her cube at you and I.
14:26Go back there.
14:27Who?
14:29The cyborg you're in love with.
14:30I'm not in love.
14:32Look, I know I'm considered a write-off by you lot, but I know a workplace romance when I see
14:36one.
14:39I hope they move you to dermatology.
14:43I hope they move you to telehealth.
14:47Are you sure he can't be swayed?
14:49Did you tell him that Sandra will take it?
14:50He wouldn't hear a word.
14:52I tried.
14:53He's not going to budge.
14:54He actually got pretty personal.
14:56Oh.
14:57So, what do we do?
14:59Why don't you just pressure Phil?
15:01She actually respects you and Paul will just go with it.
15:04Have you checked on Justine Thompson, Ward 3?
15:06Uh, no, but...
15:09Go. Do your rounds.
15:12You know, one of you actually being there with her is safer than refusing to do the procedure.
15:17We can't set a precedent when Paul gets to pinches what surgeons go into theatre.
15:20Oh, so it's not even about the patient.
15:24Do not speak to your HOD like that.
15:29Maybe Phil was right.
15:33A bonus.
15:34The surgery.
15:35Five thousand.
15:35That's a handbag.
15:37Ten.
15:41I don't want an exam next to Estes with my name on the door.
15:44No.
15:45Oh.
15:45But the ten grand.
15:47If we have to.
15:48Phil, we'll loop you in on the details.
15:50Congratulations.
15:50Izzy, you're about to make history.
15:51I know.
15:52I've already studied the case.
15:54And I would have done it for that alone.
15:55But hey.
15:57Love the bonus.
15:58Thanks.
16:00Thanks.
16:01Thanks.
16:04Thanks.
16:05Okay.
16:06Here we go.
16:11Dalton, what the hell are you doing?
16:12Dalton, what the hell are you doing?
16:15Shit!
16:16That wasn't a part of the plan!
16:17I don't want him to get away!
16:21Really?
16:22Well, well, well, take it easy, mate.
16:24Take it easy.
16:28Don't!
16:29Just kick the shit in my car!
16:30And you, you will stay very, very still if you know what's good.
16:45I'm right.
16:47I'm not trying to hurt you.
16:54We have to go.
16:56We have to go, Bilal!
17:04You're late.
17:05I only agreed to this, like, five minutes ago.
17:08What?
17:08What?
17:10What did I do?
17:12Never mind.
17:18So, do you want to talk about the procedure?
17:20Yeah, yeah, I was getting to that.
17:22Just give me a second.
17:23Go on.
17:27You're scared?
17:28Yes, I am.
17:30They don't want us to do this surgery.
17:32We don't exactly work well together.
17:34This could be a total disaster.
17:36It won't be.
17:37It's a lot.
17:38Yeah.
17:39But you're good.
17:40So am I.
17:43They all hate me.
17:45So?
17:46Since when have you cared?
17:48It's not going to help you in there.
17:50We have a real chance to shut them up.
17:54And for real, they deserve to be checked.
17:56Waving their scalpels around like, I'm king of the OR.
18:00Ew.
18:01Yeah.
18:02No, that's that.
18:02I was like, a pedantic diva who never lets us do anything.
18:05Chris thinks he built this hospital with his bare hands like, we get it.
18:09It's yours.
18:10And Esther's just, I don't know, like, the tree from Pocahontas-wise, tired.
18:17Miriam's okay, though.
18:18Yes.
18:20Okay.
18:21Are we doing this?
18:24Let's go, Philip.
18:29It's enough.
18:30Get off him.
18:30Get off him.
18:31Get off him.
18:31Get your hands off me, Coy.
18:33Easy.
18:33Easy.
18:34Get off him right now or I will scream so loud security will be here in two seconds.
18:39Now.
18:53We have to go, now.
18:55What about him?
18:57Oh.
18:59Somebody help!
19:01Oh, God.
19:11Okay, Echo.
19:12Yeah, I know.
19:13Echo.
19:15I don't know how to cover for you.
19:16People are going to see us.
19:17It's fine.
19:17Everyone's thinking about the robbery.
19:18They're not thinking about us, Mom.
19:21Emma's going to ask me, Will.
19:22What do we say?
19:22I don't know.
19:23Let's just get inside.
19:29Okay, don't go back.
19:33Okay.
19:34We have to.
19:34We don't look normal hiding like this.
19:36Yeah, no shit.
19:37We need to be normal.
19:39Don't write.
19:42Wait, come on.
19:43Well, Mick can't see us yet.
19:50Are we ready?
19:52Sure hope so.
19:53We are running behind schedule here.
19:54Well, maybe if Izzy knew she was assisting more than five minutes before scrubbing in,
19:58we'd be better prepared.
20:00Scuffle.
20:01We aren't doing this laparoscopically.
20:04No.
20:05I want to ensure complete removal without rupturing the sac.
20:09I'm not.
20:11I prefer a laparotomy for a clear visual field and patient safety.
20:16No, you can't be in here.
20:18Izzy.
20:19What are you doing?
20:20What does it look like I'm doing?
20:22Can you sit quiet?
20:23You might not have listened to me before, but this is serious.
20:25Do not do this surgery.
20:26Why?
20:28Because you're scared I'll embarrass you.
20:31Come on, Izzy.
20:34Please.
20:35We're ready.
20:36Great.
20:37Don't do this.
20:38To prove a point to me.
20:40I can't do this without looking.
20:42Can you get her out of here?
20:43All right.
20:44Enough.
20:44I know you might find this hard to believe, but I am saying this because I love you.
20:50Don't let her get into your head.
20:51Get out before I have to throw you out, Dr. Ropata.
20:55If anything happens to this patient, it'll be on you.
21:02Okay.
21:02Making the first incision.
21:08We should hear me.
21:09Not bad.
21:12Whoa!
21:13Just shut the door.
21:14I'm sorry.
21:17Dude!
21:18Is this what you've been doing the whole time?
21:22This is a hospital.
21:23Why would you...
21:24Jesus, could you just close the door?
21:26I didn't think.
21:28I don't want to be looking at this.
21:29Then don't.
21:30Just get your clothes on.
21:36Oh, my God.
21:37Oh, my God.
21:37He brought it?
21:39He brought it?
21:45You're the best.
21:47We did it together.
21:49I love you.
21:53Hurry up, you wombles.
21:54Right.
21:55Yeah, right.
21:56I'll...
21:59Come back to this later?
22:00Yeah, definitely.
22:06Suction.
22:10None of this feels right.
22:11My OR doesn't have room for your feelings right now.
22:14It's not too late.
22:16We're here.
22:17We're doing it.
22:22What?
22:23Phil, you know you need to stop.
22:25No, you're not taking this opportunity away from me.
22:27It's not an opportunity.
22:28It's a disaster waiting to happen.
22:29You know that.
22:32Izzy, focus.
22:34Stop.
22:36You're not doing a laparoscopic procedure because it's beyond your capabilities.
22:40No.
22:42Put it down and hand over to Mariamma.
22:50You can go.
23:01You can go.
23:03You can go.
23:03You
