Prof Asuma starts the morning round
First Dept of surgery cannot function without Dr Zaizen
Resident wants to suggest to Professor, waits for another 100 years
If you value your position as doctor, it would not be that sad
Perhaps the reason is Dr Satomi
I'm the professor, you are just an assistant
Bye, doctor
No matter how unwilling I am..
It may not be good for the patient, Satomi
That is why I have to be the Professor
Dr Zaizen is a good choice
Summing up all your opinions
we can only choose the third way
Perhaps it is an notice of official nomination
I'm Zaizen
Nomination committee meeting has just finished
Is it?
Can't imagine they recruit candidate nation wide
Nation wide recruitment?
Through nation wide recruitment to find the successor for the professor
..is a fairer way, isn't it?
Why so early?
The extended surgery made me tire, come back and have some rest
What are you doing
If not prepared early, I am afraid it would be too late
I've heard that one should wear kimono to attend the professors' wife club
Wearing western dress will be looked down up
You see, is this color beautiful?
This color matches me
That's right
What's the result?
Papa called several times?
Are you the only candidate?
Not yet
Then it should be taken by another candidate
Not yet
It became now a nation wide recruitment drive
What is meant by that?
That means open the position to all suitable candidates in Japan
..then select the professor by voting
Then what should we do?
I don't know
Don't know?
How come?
Prof Ugai said he would help?
That means our enemy is in full swing too
Why not take the taxi?
I don't want to queue up
Pa, towel Thanks
Really happy
It has been long time for us together to eat dinner Isn't it, Yoshito
Yes
Yoshito, clean up the table Wash your hand and prepare to eat
Yes
It's great for you to come back so early
Something happened in hospital..
I did not have the mood for experiment, just came early
Is it because the nomination committee?
I have heard that
Oh
Would Zaizen have the chance to be professor?
I don't know
You don't care?
This battle for professorship related to..
your Internal Medicine Dept
And Zaizen is your classmates, you really wish him luck, right?
To be a professor is not a goal but a result
Professorship is a great thing to all personnel in Medical Faculty
Sorry I talk too much
Pa, when will you become the professor?
Yoshito
Pa, you will become a great professor
Listen, just to be a professor doesn’t mean he is great
You would be great only if you involved yourself whole heartedly..
..in your work regardless whether you are a professor
Alright, let's go eating
It's really unexpected
At first I wish to recommend you to replace Zaizen
but Prof Okouchi suggested a nation wide approach
This makes it easier to nominate you
As you are also outstanding nation wide
Does that mean I can still withdraw now?
Prof Asuma
If I accept the nomination..
I can't lose in this battle.
Once nominated in Naniwa..
I cannot stay in Kanazawa University
That means..
If I were lost in this battle..
then I would lost all research resources now I have
I hope you can understand my situation
then I can accept the nomination
Will not lose, surely will win
Prof Osamu is also on our side
I am the incumbent professor, I would not cheat you
Sorry to let you wait
Come, let's have dinner
I get some wine
I need to take the last train to Kansai
No hurry, let's have dinner together
Saeko, come here
Saeko...
Mr. Kikukawa, have a seat
Have some wine
Saeko is happy to see you
She likes your type since young
Mom!
Don't be shy
Isn't it, Mr. Kikukawa
Honey, may be you toast with Mr. Kikukawa
Saeko, don't care about the kitchen, come to join us
Saeko....
What's matter, Zaizen
Sorry to disturb you
I have a favor to ask. Do you have some time?
I am busy right now
Talk tomorrow
Saeko, open the door for him
You have guest?
Yes
Then I ask here
You...
May I be your assistant for your next surgery?
Assistant?
First...
Mr. Kikukawa, toast!
I have a lot to learn from you
Toast
It is rare to see you to carry out the bronchiectomy
Please let me practice
I have nothing to teach you
I was always the assistant to you in the past
Since I changed my specialty to oesophagus..
then I missed this opportunity
Please guide me from where I start
Is that what you want to say for making such a trip in the rain?
Yes
I am afraid this may be my last time to be your assistant
Great White Tower- Chapter 7
Thanks everyone
Now we start the bronchiectomy to the left lung
Be care of the trachea
Yes
This is the specialty of Prof Asuma
Everybody should learn from it
Thank you
Scalpel Yes
Forceps Yes
Hemostat Yes
Electric scalpel Yes
Probe Yes
Hey, the tumor is shrinking
Amazing!
It's confirmed that the cancer cells growth is inhibited
Who can help me to draw the blood?
Everyone is afraid to offend Prof Ugai
They respect your research but they are afraid of Prof Ugai
It’s absurd
Why helping the research would offend him?
I do not in conflict with Prof Ugai myself
It's only the difference in opinion in treating patient
Doctor, you are marvelous
I'm really admire you
Not subcomb to authority, not to pressure
In search of truth always
We ordinary people cannot follow
This is from another hospital
Keep it up
"Miss Hayashi Kanako was admitted into this hospital...
..after leaving Naniwa Hospital last month...
...She passed away due to GI track hemorrhage several days ago...
..This is to inform you as her former doctor in charge..."
Thanks for taking care of me
This is not the hospital that I can go through my last journey
Forceps Yes
Be careful on the main artery Yes
I can't see the artery
Drag it out from the upper side of the lung
It's because the cancer spread to lymph nodes affecting the artery
Let me do it?
Yana, come and help me Yes
Kansai, focus on he tip of the forceps
Yes
Forceps Yes
Let me press down the vein
Continue to separate
Yes
Hold it tight, don't move Yes
Is it? That patient passed away Yes
It's pity that she passed away at this young age
What's matter?
Would you reconsider the terminal care for cancer patients?
We do not make her die
She died because of the disease
I know
But..
Her words let me think a lot
Giving up the terminal patient should not be the goal of a general hospital
We should have the hospice care
to take care of these terminal patients
You are right
and with reasons
I learnt a lot from you
The main 3 goals of University Medical Faculty is: Research Education and Treatment
Hospice care is not within our scope ...
...as far as research is concerned
It would be difficult
It seems you had better to focus on your research
I place a high value on your research
That's not only me
The whole medical field values you
They are expecting your dissertation on cancer cells inhibition
It would be worthwhile to pay your effort in this area
Now sewing up the pulmonary artery
Sealing at the end?
Hold the forceps Yes
silk 1-0 Yes
Good
Small forceps Yes
Fixer Yes
Forceps Yes
Clipper Yes
Directing tube Yes
Sorry to disturb you, Mrs. Ugai
What's matter?
I have the meeting for the Rose club, I am leaving now
I come to thank you because Prof Ugai..
..is taking good care of my husband
Oh!
Come in
Is it alright?
Is this silk?
Beautiful color
This color matches you
Wait
I cannot accept such expensive gift
I may need your help in the Prof wife club
And...
my mom died early
I looked up to you as my Mom
It's really Mrs. Zaizen
Alright, I accept it
I would relay some good words in front of my husband
Thank you
Yes, I want to tell you this
Did Dr Zaizen have other woman outside?
The battle for professorship is near, don't let other things come in the way
As a wife, sometimes you should be stricter
Besides, I am happy you look up on me as mother..
but my age does not allow me to have a daughter as your age
If you want to enter the Rose Club..
take care of your words
Sorry
Doctor
This surgery is marvelous
Reconstruction of trachea is different from that of oesophagus
That requires a more precise joining technique
Thank you
I would be grateful if that could be of any reference to you
you did well too
Thank you, I am leaving
Zaizen
Yes?
Want to have a drink?
Yes
It's entertaining What?
The chemistry between Prof Asuma and Dr Zaizen
You couldn't see?
Dr Zaizen intentionally slowed down the pace
If he were to carry out the operation, only half the time would be required
Really?
Come What?
It makes me nervous
Why?
May I disturb you?
You sit down too
Prof Asuma and Dr Zaizen are not in tune, aren’t they?
Can't imagine they carry out the surgery together
Yes
Don't listen to the rumor
Dr Kansai, don't you know that?
That Prof Asuma recommended Kanazawa's Kikukawa
Sorry, I thought you as Asuma's gang would know this
Is it?
What are you talking about?
Though I am also Prof Asuma's student, I am not what you say Asuma's gang
Then which side you are supporting?
It seems Team leader cannot relax
I do not object that Dr Zaizen to be professor
But I don't like power struggle
I just do what I suppose to do
Dr Kansai, let me pay
I don't want to owe you a favor just for a cup of coffee
Don't say that!
No need you embarrass me
Don't worry Today is my treat
It's really an occasion to have you too
Today we come here to celebrate a successful surgery
Oh
It has been a long time since to be your assistant. I've learnt a lot
Then get an bottle of old wine to celebrate
It's really memorable
Not as your assistant for long time..
and not drinking together with you for a long time
I seem to forget some important thing
What is your real objective?
I don't think a busy person as you..
..would come as assistant just for learning
Please go direct to the point
We can talk everything, right?
Then...
I go straight to the point
I thought to be your assistant again could help me to understand more
Understand?
As your assistant ever since..
why I am being rejected.
It's not the case
You misunderstood
It is not only me having such a feeling
The whole team said that you were looking for someone to be your successor
Rumors would be more before the actual nomination
So I can believe what you have said?
It may be disrespectful to say this..
I can be the Asst Prof is all because of you
I strived hard for these 8 years
I trust you from the bottom of heart
I never forget your teaching ever since
Why you have such an ill-feeling towards me?
Thanks for the business
If I have done something wrong, I can change
even my attitude can be adjusted too
I am willing to apologize to you
But I don't know the reason and don't know where to start
Where I have gone wrong..
..to make you so angry?
Why so impolite?
You have done nothing wrong
You take it for granted that you will be the professor?
Why not ask for my favor direct...
and tell me that you want to be the professor?
Your real objective is to be the professor instead of surgery assistant
If I really want to ask you...
Ask what?
If I really asked you, would you give me the chance?
Concerning this...
Let me be the professor
I am not so sure
Recently you are in close contact with Prof Ugai behind my back
Perhaps this is just rumors
It all depends on how you ask
If you really believe me..
..why bother to do so much, just ask for my favor
Really begging for your favor..
is quite impossible....
..because I have done nothing wrong
In addition...
I believe my strength would ensure me to be nominated to be professor
Oh, this is how you think
Yes
If that is what you think, continue to charge forward
It looks like our relationship ends here
That's correct
To make tonight memorable, let me tell you this...
You just asked me what you have done wrong to make me angry...
..You think bad of everything I've done
Am I right?
Prof, you are leaving?
Send the bill to school to me
This is the red wine you like, a 1988 species
Take it to Zaizen
You need to change your thinking
It is no point to use a large sum on those worthless old stuff
Prof Asuma
You don't need to worry
Only if it is genuine, a hundred thousand is worthwhile
But if just an empty shell, 1 dollar is too much
Zaizen
Thanks for coming
Saeko, Saeko, you see, it is quite good
You see
Saeko, please consider Kikukawa seriously
You understand what I mean?
It is all for you
I...
I know you want to find your own marriage partner...
..after all you are a woman
But I advise you not to pursue that thought anymore
It's impossible
Why so sure?
How can you meet a good man yourself..
..in this distressed economic atmosphere
A research student in French Literature cannot even find a job
So I can't marry right away
I want to think about my way of life myself
Do you think you can get any answer?
People would just think that you just aim too high
It's not that
There must be someone I can communicate well
Like Dr Satomi?
Dr Satomi is different from Dr Zaizen, he is a man of ideals
No matter how talented he is, he is married with a child
Mom, what are you talking?
Don't meet him anymore
I am a good friend with his wife
But your goal is to be closer to him
Don't say that
Your thought will be disclosed itself sooner or later
Dr Satomi is a male, be careful
Mom
Not alright?
Not alright? Saeko
OK, then I tell him not to meet with you again
All for your future
You are so stubborn
Just closed your eyes and lowered your head to ask him, things would be done
You think I lower my head to ask him and he will help me?
Difficult to say, he is human
He may change his mind
I shall not fight any losing battle
If that was really as you said..
..he is that embracing to help me
But if he did not have that thinking right from the start
and then go telling Prof Ugai I lower my head to him..
...and charge me at my back, then what shall I do?
Then I shall be facing enemies at both ends
To do something that unsure...
I would rather get hold of Prof Ugai
He is the Faculty Head
Want to come to my home?
No, I have to leave
If someone saw me then it was no good
Is it? Then go back to your wife
Anyway, Dr Zaizen is the assistant professor
Good
Why say 'good'?
I suppose Dr Zaizen did not have other woman
You intrude too much
Hello, First Dept of Internal Medicine
I am Satomi
Sorry to call you so late
You have a minute?
Yes
Why your mother is looking for me?
It's embarrassing, my mother is filled with the matter of my marriage partner
So...
My mother did not like my going to your home
What's matter
Why is your marriage related to me?
Mom thought that I have a feeling for you
Of course not
That is my mother's thought, she is that kind of person to mix things up
If she calls you by any chance...
Don't feel bad
I would not meet Michiyo during this time
I...
Please continue
I...
I am really happy that you are a good friend with Michiyo
Yes
Oh
Oh, drunk?
Suddenly want to meet you
Sorry, I have to hang up
Go home after drinking
Dr Satomi, why do you always feel so at ease
Then I ask you
Why do you so anxious to be a professor
I don't know
You have excellent skills
and have saved my patients
Is this not enough?
No matter how many lives you saved..
it is meaningless not to be a professor
I want to do something big
..to be a person of authority
..to have more and more people listen to me
Is that ideals for every man?
At least not me
Is it?
You just lack of self confidence
Zaizen What?
When you were just transferred to First Dept of Surgery..
you said you would save every patient
I thought you were arrogant that time
..but I admire your boldness
I couldn't forget your expression that time
Then are you willing to help me?
Help me to link up with Prof Okouchi
If not..
..then tell him I am a skillful doctor with high ideals
It looks like you are not going to help me
Alright, I understand
Why don't you go yourself?
If you were to have high ideals...
no matter it is Prof Okouchi or others, you should not be afraid of facing them
I am Zaizen Goro
Fool, it's me
What's matter
Night shift? you too?
Dr Tsukuda asked me to substitute for him
It seems the medical office is busy
It's all over the place recently
If you followed the right man, your fortune might change
It can't be helped
But hospital is a place to treat patients
...and is not a place for power struggle
What so funny?
Your words have no weight at all
But I am serious
I am serious too
Try to say those words to Dr Zaizen to see what happens
Hospital is a place to treat patients
Surely you would get special attention
I feel that you are marvelous
Yana
Anyway, men have to get power
Dr Zaizen
I forgot something
See you
You are classmates?
Yes
Why you want to be a doctor?
Because my father is a practicing doctor
I....
Because my mother was sick when I was young
The doctor saved her life
I want to save lives as a doctor
Oh
Why do you ask?
Nothing, just feel like asking
Good bye
bye
Now let's start the 2nd nomination committee meeting
We have many applicants to the nation wide recruitment
We can select the candidates from the list
Go ahead
Yes We do it fair and square
Fair and square?
It will be soon
How are you?
You are?
Guess who I am?
Mrs. Zaizen?
Amazing, you guessed it right
You are amazing as you know I am living here
Because I am his wife
Want to come in his lover's home?
No need
I just want to ask you a favor then I will leave
What’s matter?
I wish you would not see my husband for a period of time
I think you know
now is the critical period for the battle of professorship
It does not worth it if fails because of woman
Oh I see
After the battle, I shall return him to you
I don't want to get hold of him
Dr Zaizen is a man of thoughts
He is not a product belonging to anyone
Don't you care if he can't be the professor?
Doesn't matter, I don't care
That's his life
I really care
Wife and husband is a unified entity
No matter I meet him or not
he will be the professor if he is able
If not, you cannot force it
If only because of woman that the position is affected..
I think he cannot stay there long even if he gets it
Medical Faculty is a place for power struggle
These power hunger people all gathered around
You should be very clear
Yes
I escaped from there
that's why I fall in love with Dr Zaizen who may conquer that
Summing up your opinions...
Prof Kasai from Takashi University
Prof Kikukawa from Kanazawa University
..and Dr Zaizen of our Hospital
Prof Kikukawa..
...though he is knowledgeable in medicine..
,,it is said that he is very individualistic and can't work with a team
I 'm afraid there will be some difficulties to lead our Surgical dept
Really?
It would be much easier if it was Dr Zaizen
Talking about individualism, if Zaizen gets all the power
it will also affect the training of new personnel
As far as I understand as the Faculty Head..
..the medical office team supports him.
Therefore it's better to have someone from our own
I think so too
What's your view, Dr Nosaka?
I think Prof Kasai is the best
Prof Kasai is a surgeon..
..and he used to be an assistant in First Surgical Dept, and is a real scholar
I have some reservation on Dr Zaizen's ethics
Therefore I think Prof Kasai is the best
How about you, Prof Asuma?
Dr Zaizen is my student
I cannot make a fair judgment
It's not fair for me to comment too
It seems everyone have expressed your views
Now I formally announce the following persons..
Prof Kasai from Takashi University
Prof Kikukawa from Kanazawa University
and Prof Zaizen Goro from our University..
..to be the professor candidates
Any other opinions?
Thank you , Prof Okouchi
I want to discuss with you..
I need to do research
I don't want to be a professor
