Thanks.
I don't understand.
Jian-de said he killed Guo-zhang by accident
because Guo-zhang wanted to settle for the money.
If Jian-de isn't after the money, what does he want?
I don't think he's after the money.
What else did you talk about on the phone?
He said he still has one thing to take care of.
That's all.
Now, we know that he used to be a doctor
and that the deputy director took money from a patient.
But that's about it.
So he's working together with the deputy director?
-Hey. -Hey.
What?
What are you talking about?
I often listen to this song.
When I go for a run, or when I'm relaxing at home, I put this music on.
What were you doing?
-Nothing. -You pointed at it.
I like pointing at things.
It's by Chopin.
No, it's Bach.
It's Chopin for sure.
You listen to it every day and you don't know it's by Bach?
Bach isn't this romantic.
Bach is very romantic.
What's so funny?
It's Bach.
One of our employees in the Pharmacy Department made a mistake.
There was a problem with drug inventory management.
Hold on, didn't Dr. Chen admit that he gave orders to cut down on supplies?
Now you're saying it was the employee's fault?
Our former director, Dr. Chen, did give those orders
to cut down on drug inventory supplies
in order to avoid unnecessary waste.
But the management details
were executed solely by the Pharmacy Department.
Dr. Chen, who gave the orders, and the employees in charge
have taken responsibility and resigned.
We would also like to announce our resolution
to carry out a reform for the hospital.
There were some setbacks in our establishment,
but after figuring out the problem,
we came up with solutions to improve our weaknesses.
We want the public to see that we sincerely admit our faults
and take responsibility for them.
We will effectively resolve the issues.
I will be stepping up as the hospital director.
I promise all of you
that under my supervision,
Renxin Hospital will undergo a complete overhaul.
I will lead everyone at Renxin Hospital
towards our goal to become a medical center.
The plan to upgrade Renxin Hospital into a medical center
was proposed by the former hospital director, Dr. Hsien-rong Chen.
The plan has come to a halt due to the recent scandals and his resignation.
Competent authorities will further investigate the construction
of the cancer center
to see if there are any illegal procedures or needs for recusal.
The new hospital director, Tzu-chiang Wu, emphasizes
-Remember the Lider Hospital incident? -that it is completely legal.
-Yes, what about it? -The construction...
Head of Surgical was Hsien-rong Chen.
The new director will continue to carry out the former director's plans
to turn Renxin Hospital into a medical center.
Two doctors were discharged after the Lider Hospital scandal.
I know, one of them was Jian-de.
The other one was Hong-ren.
He couldn't take the pressure and committed suicide.
What does that have to do with Hsieng-rong?
Look at this.
While investigating Jian-de, I went to Lider Hospital.
Hsien-rong was the head of the Surgical Department then.
He ordered for the two doctors to be discharged.
You're saying
that Jian-de's plans are all targeted
at Hsien-rong?
I read every article about Jian-de.
One article was overlooked by everyone.
When that doctor committed suicide,
the only witness, who called the ambulance,
was Jian-de.
I think that incident traumatized him greatly.
So, Jian-de was there.
Wait.
Ms. Su.
Dr. Chen?
I think we're running low on Ponstan.
Yes. I already told the pharmacy. They'll bring some more in a few days.
Okay.
Dr. Chen, how are you adjusting to night shift?
We don't have enough doctors, so you'll have to help out.
Thirty years ago, when I just graduated,
I started out doing night shift at this very hospital.
I'll be fine.
Dr. Chen.
Ms. Su, please come with me.
We have a situation.
What is it?
It's a cancer patient.
Please, I've been to so many hospitals.
None of them will take us. My dad is in so much pain.
Please help us. Or just give him some painkillers.
Can I take a look?
What's the matter?
Dr. Chen.
He's a terminal cancer patient.
A lot of hospitals won't take people like him.
How many observation rooms do we have in the ER?
About two.
But they're for emergency patients.
Let's take him in first.
Okay.
Hey.
-Help them get registered, okay? -Okay.
Please follow this nurse.
Go now.
-Give him some painkillers. -Okay.
Thank you, Doctor and nurses.
Let's get you in a room, Dad.
That's all.
Jian-de told you that he still has one thing to take care of.
I'm worried he'll hurt Hsieng-rong.
Ms. Song!
Dr. Wang!
-What's wrong? -Her pulse has stopped!
-Get me the defibrillator! Call support! -Okay.
Ms. Song! Can you hear me?
Ms. Song!
It's ventricular fibrillation. Prepare for defibrillation. Jelly.
Charge to 200.
Clear.
She still has ventricular fibrillation.
Charge to 200.
Clear.
Tube! Hurry!
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen,
sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty...
Hello?
Zheng-xun, did you get to Hsien-rong yet?
I'm almost there.
It should be up here.
How is Zhao-ying?
She seems pretty stable.
Don't worry.
Be careful, all right?
Okay.
I will. You be careful too.
Hello? Did you hear me?
Hello? Is the reception bad?
Wei-yu?
Hello?
MINAN HOSPITAL
Thank you.
Excuse me, I'm looking for Dr. Hsien-rong Chen.
-Go straight and take a right there. -Thank you.
You're welcome.
Dr. Chen.
Dr. Hsiao.
Why are you here?
Among all my students,
he was the most gifted.
I put a lot of effort into teaching him.
After the incident,
I panicked.
Dr. Chen.
I understand what you're saying.
But the longer I work as a doctor,
the more I find that there are lots of faults
with the operation of hospitals.
I feel confused.
Should I continue to believe in the system?
Jian-de.
A doctor's mission is to save lives.
We work against diseases,
not the system.
Rules are needed in every workplace.
You can't rush to fix the system.
You can only troubleshoot it from within, understand?
I understand.
Hong-ren is very straightforward.
I tell him things, but he doesn't understand them.
You're his senior.
You should look after him.
I will.
I was worried that it'd get in the way of my plans for training abroad.
So I selfishly chose to abandon them.
So you discharged them
and avoided them.
Hong-ren killed himself because of this.
Do you think I have the courage to face Jian-de?
I always thought that I needed to gain power first.
Only then could I change things.
But,
during the process of gaining power,
I became a doctor who only cared about records and data.
I couldn't feel my patients' pain.
I can totally understand
why Jian-de despises me.
He told me
that he still has one thing to take care of.
I'm guessing he'll come for you.
You should be careful. We don't know what he'll do.
I'm ready for anything.
I've avoided him for too long.
Don't worry about me.
You should go now.
Dr. Chen.
Don't call me Dr. Chen.
I don't deserve that.
Thank you for telling me everything.
Jian-de was my student. I know him well.
If he says he'll turn himself in,
he will do it.
Go now.
Hello? Wei-yu? Yes.
I've met with him.
Dr. Chen says that Jian-de will turn himself in.
But I don't think it's that simple.
I think...
Hello?
Hello? Wei-yu?
Hello? Can you hear me?
Hello?
Dr. Chen.
You should go home and get some rest.
We don't have enough doctors. I should help out.
Thank you.
No problem.
-I'll go now. -Okay.
Patient Turned Away by Lider Hospital
Although I'm your teacher,
I can't protect you.
Was taking the patient a wrong decision?
Why do we have to take the responsibility for this?
I'm just a doctor, sir.
Come in.
Dr. Chen, I'll leave this X-ray film on your desk.
Thank you.
Come in.
Sir.
Remember me?
Jian-de.
You're here.
It's good that you remember me.
I haven't seen you in six years.
I was worried you would have forgotten about me.
How could I forget you?
Zheng-xun has told me everything.
Why would this small hospital hire you?
Don't they know that you're a doctor without conscience?
So, it was really you who planned everything.
Yes.
I did plan everything.
You don't know
what I've been through for the past six years.
I think of you every day.
Because you're so important to me.
I've learned a lot from you.
Even though I'm no longer a doctor,
you taught me how to survive within the system.
You also taught me
how to use the system to kill.
You have to admit it. I was your most talented student.
You helped me out
with Mrs. Zeng's surgery, right?
So you did all this to get revenge?
Not only for revenge.
I want you to know
that you and I are the same.
We're both playing the system.
We get what we want
while not breaking any rules.
Yet, I succeeded.
You failed.
Now, you're in the same situation Hong-ren and I used to be in.
The hospital abandoned you.
Nobody cares about you.
Jian-de.
I know it was all my fault.
I was selfish back then.
And I chose to run away.
But I knew that one day, I would have to take responsibility.
But what have you done all this while?
You forged surgery reports.
You forged drug inventory records.
Received rebates from pharmaceutical companies?
Take a look.
You've signed and approved everything here.
You should apologize for each and every terrible deed.
Wake up.
You've been assimilated into the system.
Now, you're just a tumor inside the system.
You don't deserve that robe you're wearing.
During my term as hospital director,
I turned an ordinary hospital
into a local teaching hospital.
My ultimate goal
was to turn it into a medical center.
I've told you before.
In a system like this,
you must get into the core and gain more power.
Only then can you save more people.
You might need to sacrifice some people,
but that's inevitable.
So, sacrificing Hong-ren and me was your option?
Too bad.
We were unlucky because we were your students.
You killed a person.
Why can't you admit that you're a killer?
I don't need your moral philosophies.
I don't need your apology.
Old man.
I just want you to admit
that you're a failure
and that you don't deserve to be a doctor.
Say it.
I'm a failure.
I don't deserve to be a doctor.
Louder!
I'm a failure.
Louder! I can't hear you!
I'm a failure!
I don't deserve to be a doctor!
Bastard!
I know.
I hurt my students, who trusted me more than anyone.
Now, I'm back at this hospital.
I just want to be an ordinary doctor
and save lives.
With what rights?
What gives you the right to be a doctor, and not me?
With what rights?
What gives you the right to be a doctor, and not me?
I know.
No matter what I do,
I can't make up for how much I've hurt you.
But...
I've kept Hong-ren's suicide note.
I've kept it all these years.
Now, you should have it.
I can't wait for the sun to come out. I hope my decision will change you.
Jian-de.
I can't tell whether it's day or night.
Jian-de, did you know that they were reserving the ward for a VIP?
I found out after reading the news.
The vacant surgery room is being saved for a VIP patient.
He's coming in soon.
I'll recommend you to the hospital when I get back.
You can get a promotion.
Even you lied to me.
In the future,
we can change the system.
The sun always comes out after the dark.
Jian-de, the sun won't come out.
How did this happen?
Why did this happen?
Recently, there's been many medical disputes and drug management issues.
Also, after the murder at the Zeng family's house,
the police are still looking for the main suspect, Zheng-xun Hsiao.
Someone called the police
and reported that Mr. Hsiao appeared at Renxin Hospital
and went into Ms. Song's ward.
The police are looking at CCTV footage to find the vehicle used by Dr. Hsiao.
On the other hand,
the police encourage anyone who has seen him to call in immediately.
The Consumer Protection Committee inspected cosmetic surgery clinics
and found that only two out of 19 adhere to all regulations.
Up to 89% of the clinics fall short of the mark.
Some of the drugs used at the clinics do not state the components
and are not stored properly.
Bring the cart.
-Come, help me. Careful. -Help me.
-Come help, quick.
-What happened? -A bus overturned. People were injured.
We're sending them all to this only hospital here.
-Help me. -Quick.
-How many people are hurt? -I'm not sure.
It's chaotic out there.
-Around seven or eight people. -Be careful.
Dr. Chen.
What's wrong?
A bus overturned. The patients are being sent here.
How many patients?
Currently, five.
The other doctors aren't answering my calls.
Doctor! Nurses!
Wait here!
Help me put pressure on her leg. Hurry!
Who are you?
If you're a family member, please wait.
I'm a doctor. He needs a tube.
Where's the laryngoscope?
He's an anesthetist. An Advanced Cardiac Life Support instructor.
He's very experienced.
-I need the cart! -Take over for me.
Help me.
I'll help stop the bleeding.
Take a deep breath.
-Save me, doctor. -All right.
We'll stop the bleeding first.
Scope.
-Okay, I'm here. -Okay.
Take a deep breath. Take it easy.
I'll help you to replace it later, okay?
Bear with me now.
Okay.
A shot of epinephrine in three minute intervals.
-Okay. -Got a pen? I need to do a triage.
-I can't take it. -Don't get up.
Where does it hurt, ma'am?
-My leg hurts. -Okay. Anywhere else?
Okay.
Hang in there.
-Save me, doctor. -I'll stop your bleeding.
Do you feel nauseous? No?
Minor injuries over there. Major injuries stay here.
Push the beds over.
Let's go over there.
Excuse me, I need to pass through.
Passing through.
Sir, can you move your leg?
No.
-No? Okay. -Bear with us.
Are you hurt anywhere else?
-My leg hurts the most. -Your leg? Okay.
All right.
What's the situation?
He's in shock. Chest pains. Sweating.
Sir, how do you feel right now?
Take care of him first. Hurry up!
Give him oxygen. Attach the monitor.
Excuse me. Let us pass through.
Doctor, the patient is slipping in and out of consciousness.
Get him on a bed.
Okay.
Higher.
-Sir. -Sir.
Prepare for defibrillation.
Passing through! Excuse me!
Make way!
Dr. Hsiao, this patient can't breathe. He has a puncture wound.
-Can you take a look? -Are there no other doctors?
We don't have any other doctors right now.
Get him on a bed.
-Help me. -He needs oxygen.
We don't have anymore.
We need more doctors!
Make way, please.
Jian-de.
Jian-de, you're a doctor!
Come help!
Jian-de, you're a doctor!
Come help!
I solemnly pledge to dedicate my life to the service of humanity.
I will give to my teachers the respect and gratitude that's due.
Sir, where does it hurt?
I will practice my profession with conscience and dignity.
The health and well-being of my patient will be my first consideration.
Where's your family?
I will respect the secrets that are confided in me.
I will foster the honor and noble traditions of medical profession.
My colleagues will be my brothers and sisters.
I will not permit
considerations of creed, nationality,
race, political affiliation,
or social standing.
I'll be quick. Bear with me.
Change.
Here.
This is the tenth one.
Keep going.
It's been 30 minutes.
Dr. Chen, he's passed away.
Let the patient rest.
Dr. Chen.
Let him rest.
Dr. Chen.
Let him go.
For the other patients,
disinfect their wounds.
Prepare them for the transfer.
WEI-YU YANG
-Hello? -Hello?
Are you okay?
I'm fine now.
That's good.
Come back soon.
All right.
Bye.
If you can't change the system, then what are you trying to change?
I merely want to work as a physician.
Politics is too complicated to me.
Bastard!
You killed my mom. Don't you know that?
I can't make a mistake as a doctor.
I can't inject the wrong vein. I can't make mistakes.
Mistakes are not allowed.
Doctors are also humans. Can't a doctor make mistakes?
All this scheming by the hospital may not cause immediate harm to patients.
Well, this is not just a technical issue. It's a political issue.
As long as we pass the evaluations,
we will get a lot of new resources.
I think this is the best decision for me and the hospital.
Do you think your resignation will solve the problem?
During the process of gaining power,
I became a doctor who only cared about records and data.
I couldn't feel my patients' pain.
What can you change by sacrificing for the evaluation? Nothing.
The hospital will just increase in size, but the people in it will be the same.
Nothing will change.
Zheng-xun, you're not a bad guy.
You have to take care of yourself.
But it's clear that you'll soon lose your license to practice.
You're an anesthesiologist.
I'm sure you know how to wake people up.
It's impossible for anesthesiologists to take leave now.
There's an upcoming demonstration surgery next week.
-It is very important to our hospital. -Is it more important than your life?
My job is to save lives.
Nothing else is more important than that.
I've turned myself in.
The wound on your head looks bad.
Let me stitch it up before I go, okay?
I'm a pretty good doctor.
There is a silver lining.
