Hey, check the arterial line.
Phil, sucks around the aortic valve.
Pump flow is fine.
Alright.
Let's get this sclerotic, calcified mess out
and put our freshly picked baby in.
Ugh.
Actually, hang on.
Should I save this guy or not? Dr Knight!
Seriously, he is a fat, sexist shock jock
who adds nothing to the world, so just say.
Hugh, mate. Flow is falling.
Show of hands.
We forget to connect it up properly and no-one is the wiser.
Hugh, you need to... No?
Hugh!
Alright, then I need to hear Debbie.

(DOOR OPENS)
Come in.
I have done nothing wrong.
(SCOFFS) This is bureaucratic madness.
The case in question, pretty...
Maybe not.
Did I do everything I could to save her?
Yes, I did, and that is the job.
Several of your team testified that you have become erratic
and your behaviour risky.
What? They...
Have you used drugs or alcohol recently, Doctor?
Oh, I had a glass of red with my cornflakes.
Is the Medical Board operating on sharia law now?
I am a great surgeon.
Just ask the 1,017 people walking around out there because of me.
My life has been about helping people and
I can't imagine you'd want to stop that happening because of some...
..incident.
Dr Knight...
..you'll been placed on the Impaired Registrants list.
You are banned from surgical practice.
No way.
As Head of Regional Health,
we'd like you to serve your year of atonement
as a general practitioner in the town of Whyhope.
Under supervision, of course.
That's not funny.
Is this because I crashed your Porsche into a tree, Jim?
It was uni.
People thought you were a wanker. I was helping you.
They are seriously understaffed for doctors in the regions.
We thought he would be a good fit.
I... I can't go to Whyhope.
(ADAMANTLY) I can't go to Whyhope.

So generous of you to use your sabbatical
to help our local community.
(DESPONDENTLY) Yeah. That you want to give back.
Admirable in these days of selfishness.
As a leader, I understand that.
A leader?
Yeah, I guess it is kind of big of me.
Can I Instagram you for your arrival?
No.
Oh.
That's OK, I only have five followers, mostly family.
But growing!
Ah, here we are.
Hospital area through here,
as well as emergency unit and palliative care.
The plane we charter for emergencies...
Planes? It is part of what we do.
I don't do planes. I'm sure someone would have mentioned that.
It is rostered onto the service. Not me.
I think I'd be more use at home base as an anchor in the storm.
You can make that happen, can't you, Ken?
You have the power?
I'll see what I can do!
Alright, Dr Cartwright is just through here.
So, aren't you a bad boy?
More an unlucky victim of circumstance
that saved someone's life.
Right. So, not a party boy whose surgical skills were unravelling?
No.
So, Hugh, I am your supervisor.
You are on the Impaired Registrant list.
No-one, of course, knows that except for me and the Board.
You answer to me. I report on you monthly.
At the end of a year, I will send a report to tell the Board
if I think you can have your life back.
You have a really lovely eyes.
All the better to see through your bullshit.
Right. I do women.
So do I. We have a lot in common.
I need a good doctor.
Oh, I am a great doctor. You are a surgeon.
A great GP is what I need.
I think I can manage that. It is trickier than you think.
You should know one thing. I am always the best at what I do.
I have worked harder than anyone to get where I am.
Where you are is sitting in front of me
about to piss into a jar for a drug test.
This is unbelievable. I can't do this.
You can always go to TAFE, be an electrician.
You have no choice if you want to stay a doctor.
Where is the bathroom? You will do it in front of me.
I don't trust you yet.
Weekly. Uh... what...?
This is just humiliating. Really?
I'm finding it kind of funny.
Let's go, soldier. (CLICKS TONGUE)
I haven't told anyone you were coming.
Have you told your family? No, I haven't.
And you're the only one who knows, right?

That's great. Yeah!
What is going on here? Hugh!
Mum! (GUSHES) Oh!
Hi. Oh!
You are a cheeky bugger, making me think
you weren't coming to our anniversary.
Anniversary? Of course! Happy anniversary.
I knew you'd come. A mother knows. I could feel it in my...
Please don't say ovaries.
..waters. Ovaries is disgusting.
Everyone, Hugh is here!
Come over and meet our new neighbours.
Ah! You bastard.
You know I have been calling you for a month.
Oh, is that what "missed call, Matt" means?
Mystery solved. No-one knew if you were coming.
As if I would miss my parents'... something-something anniversary.
40th. Really?
Pfff. Imagine being with someone for 40 years.
Yeah, well, you prefer 40 minutes, of course.
14 is also very good.
It's good you're back. How long are you here?
How's Dad? Yeah, he's alright.
He'll be very excited to see you.
(SCOFFS) (BOTH LAUGH)
Charlie, you look...
..lovely.
(LAUGHS) You look like shit.
Um, hi.
Beer! Our own, of course.
No thanks. Did he just say no to beer?
Who's that? Your brother.
Oh, the foster kid. Your brother.
He has been that since he was six, stop calling him that.
So, how long are you back for? A day, or do we get two?
(GUNSHOT)
Did he just... kill something?
(MICROPHONE SCREECHES) Righto.
Uh...
I don't know what to say but, um, thanks for coming
and thanks for everything, Meryl.
(APPLAUSE)
Moving.
Very touching. Shh.
I know from my work on the council how important it is
to hold onto institutions.
In times of changed with the new mines
and what our town has been through, it is more important than ever.
She does know it's her anniversary and not an election?
Everything is an opportunity for Meryl.
This marriage, with love, commitment...
..and hard bloody work.
(CHUCKLES) Just like I do for this town every day!
I am voting for that marriage.
Find a baby she can kiss on the head.
Oh, and I would also like to say how happy I am
that are golden boy, Hugh, is back.
He is one of the top heart surgeons in the country.
Also, he was Cleo's Bachelor of the Year in 2012!
(CROWD WHOOPS) Ha-ha.
Thank you, my darling. You gladden my heart.
Thank you. (APPLAUSE) So much.
Thanks. Thank you.
Thank you, thank you.
The photographer from the Courier is here. Oh, I'm stunned!
Charlie, don't be snide. It makes you look ugly. Mum.
Better I tell her than she walks around with an ugly face, Matt.
Thank you for caring, Meryl. It is my pleasure, sweetheart.
Now, Hugh, come and get your photo taken - "returned hero".
Make sure they get his halo in!
Jim, darling, photo.
Just here. Here.
OK. Hugh. Are we ready?
Three, two...
I've got to check the cake.
So, how are you, Dad? Yeah, alright.
Congratulations.
Yeah. Good catch up. Thanks.

Hey.
Hey!
Don't worry, I didn't mean to... I'm naked behind here.
Right. Um...
I didn't see anything. Can you...?
It's not like you haven't seen it, though, before,
so if I did, it wouldn't...
I'll turn round. (SARCASTICALLY) Thank you!

But sometimes I think about coming back and settling down.

Funny, huh? Uh-huh.
Aw!
(PHONE RINGS) Hello.
This is ridiculous.
I am your mother. I will decide what is ridiculous.
It is a small town where we know everyone.
I can walk to school by myself.
We don't know everyone. And where did you get a phone?
This man in a white van handing out lollies give it to me.
He said to call him if I ever needed to run away.
Don't joke.
It was Dad's. Found it in his stuff.
Oh. Good.
OK, bye, Mum. Love you.
Alright, but... Hello?
Bye.
Home sweet home.
Guantanamo rang - they want their cell back.
I have to get ready for Kimberley. She is a pharmaceutical rep.
You will meet her. Very lovely woman.
Ken! Did you not think to introduce me?
Haven't we talked about this? Manners, courtesy, human contact?
I am in charge. You can't... Quiet, Instagram.
Betty Bell, receptionist, traffic cop, artist,
tarot reader at the markets on Saturdays.
For you.
Thank you. Hugh Knight. The patients are arriving.
Shall we begin the healing?
(SIGHS)
Ugh!
(GROANS)
Oh, sorry.
First my ear, my right ear, started aching.
Uh.. Ringing or... or aching?
Both. My tongue is really dry
and I've got blurred vision and, like nausea.
Hmm.
So, what is it?
Let me just finish your history here and we will get to that.
Oh. Simple.
Um...
You have a middle ear infection.
It is affecting your balance, making you nauseous.
The eye blurring is a type of dizzy spell.
Great. Thanks, Doc.
Just trying to give back.
Flu.
Oh, shingles.
Endocrinosis. Pff!
That's everyone, Doctor. After school, though - onslaught.
Enough nose runs to waterslide on. So cute.
Thanks, Betty. Managing?
All good. Dr Google.
You are monitoring my internet?
That is an outrageous invasion of privacy.
I was guessing. Oh.
We bravely have the internet,
let alone the ability to monitor the internet.
Should I sit in with you for your patients' sake?
I have been a specialist for 10 years. I have forgotten stuff.
Let's do ward rounds.
So, we have the GP clinic, we operate an emergency unit
and have a 10-bed inpatient hospital,
two beds for palliative care.
Huh. Wow. You do all that?
Impressive, isn't it?
Stretched to breaking point, understaffed, under-resourced.
We do our best. This is Aoife. Dr Knight.
Take him on rounds, if you would. Hugh.
The heart guy? Ken is in a tizz about you. Hmm.
So, how are you today, Hugh?
Worst day of my life. Is it? Well, come and look at this
and tell me if you think this man is having a worse one.
Presented with respiratory difficulties.
We suspected lung infection, maybe pneumonia.
X-rays have just come back. Looks like a tumour.
It does. What do you think?
Well, worst - a whole lot of lung cancer,
best - he has swallowed a cricket ball. We need an MRI.
We don't have those. Are you kidding me? No.
When I kid I do a dimpled smile.
(SIGHS)
(COUGHING) Is that him?
Joey! Hugh.
Joey! (COUGHS) Easy, easy!
(COUGHS) Jesus. What are you doing here?
For my sins. Which were many, no doubt.
Who doesn't love a good sin? Jeez, it is good to see you.
I tried texting you.
Oh, left my phone at home. Dumb, huh? Hm.
I got pneumonia. Is that right, nurse?
Well... Doctor?
Um...
Oh, I've seen that look before.
When he caught my mum drunk in bed with that bloke
and didn't want to tell me.
You have a mass on your chest.
But here at Hillbilly Hospital, we don't know for sure what that is,
so you need to go to Sydney and see a guy called Professor Trask.
He will give you the once over and we will treat whatever it is, OK?
Right. A mass. Not going to die, am I?
You're not leaving me here in Whyhope by myself, mate,
so no, I won't allow it.
Besides, I just got here. Who else am I going to hang out with?
You're staying? You and me, back together.
Aw! Bromance, is it?
That is exactly what it is, Ireland. Exactly.
Hey, I'll see you later on. Alright.
(SIGHS)
Fuck. You alright?
We need to get him to Sydney. Organise it.
Fat Nathan, I cannot stress to you
how important the continuation of the flower show is.
The cancellation was a tragedy.
BIG Nathan, Mrs K. Big. Of course.
I mean, 74 years since the flower show has been going
and I know the town is changing,
but some things must remain, don't you agree?
Mrs K, I can't sell the lease to my new mine
without a guarantee council will build a road to it.
Of course, of course, but people are against it, they ask questions.
"How many FIFO workers and mines can the town take?"
"What is the tipping point?"
I see myself as the guardian of that tipping point.
How short is the flower show, Mrs K?
96 to clear all debts. 75 for this year.
Alright, let me just...
You are a real philanthropist, Big Nathan.
And the road?
I will do what is best for Whyhope, of course.
Well, that is what's best for Whyhope.
And the flower show. (PHONE RINGS)
Meryl Knight.
Hugh what?!
(CAR PULLS UP)
Kimberley. Hey. Hi, Ken.
I've prepared some lunch for us after you have seen the doctors.
I put in a good word for you with the new guy.
Oh, you are a keeper. Thanks.
So, they're great as a blood thinner for stroke victims
and they have shown great results in testing
for a variety of other illnesses.
Yeah, I've used it before. Great.
So you are new around here, huh? Mm-hm.
How are you finding it? Dull and infuriating.
I know. I am out on the road a month at a time.
I get so bored, I could tear my hair out.
Hm. Such beautiful hair.
You can touch it if you want to.
I...
I try to do one beautiful thing each day.
I'm trying to reset, not do things like I have...
Mm. ..in the past.
There's people just outside the door,
so I get if you are too scared to.
Give it a pull.
You need to step back, Ken.
(MOANING)
Oh, this is going to hurt.
(LOUD MOANING)
Ken, remember - pain is fleeting and makes the heart ultimately stronger.
Well, don't you want to look?
If you think you have piles, then I believe you.
But what if I'm wrong?
You're the doc. (KNOCK AT DOOR)
Hugh, what are you doing? Mum!
I think you should look. What if it's bad?
Could you excuse as?
But welcome to town. Your industry is valued by us all.
I have to take a look at his arse, Mum. You want to stay for that?
So, you will look? But what are you doing here?
I have piles. She doesn't mean you.
Oh, you poor man. They are very painful.
Cucumbers give great relief.
Oh. Sliced or whole?
OK, let's go, Mum. This way.
But you told me you were staying two days.
Look, I decided on a complete whim, last night after I said that.
Regional health, they need great doctors.
But you can't do that. I don't understand!
You are a genius and you are wasted in a one-horse town. It's a waste!
I had an epiphany, Mum. I miss my family.
You guys are getting older.
The chances of one of you dying in a car accident
is statistically quite high. Don't say that.
I don't understand - it seems ridiculous. A whim!
Exactly. Look, and I will be working on my artificial heart as well.
Don't you have patients in Sydney? Yeah... No, I...
Look, what am I going to tell people?
Ah, of course.
Tell them the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
That you have given a lifetime of service to this town
and some of that has rubbed off on me.
Oh, gee, that is such a sacrifice. People will be amazed.
And grateful. Mm.
OK, but then you go back. You're special.
Oh, I will. I will go back.
Floyd. Can I ask you dumb question?
There are no dumb questions. You can ask me anything.
Does oral sex mean talking about sex?
In which case, why don't they just say 'talking about sex'?
Ah, look at that. It is quiet time.
I thought you said we could ask you anything?
We might have to have some boundaries.
(MESSAGE TONE)
(DIRT BIKE ENGINE REVS)
Hello, gorgeous.
Is that on its way, finally? Sure is, boss.
So, that is going to Korea. A really big contract for us.
Come on, I'll give you a tour.
When did this happen? Well, we had to do something.
Farm was going under.
I didn't think it was that serious. Thought it was just Dad whingeing.
No, it wasn't. I had this idea.
I love beer, we have wheat - make some money.
Don't exactly take an interest, do you?
Got lives to save, little brother.
Not anymore, apparently. You're staying.
It is normal for surgeons to take some time out.
Regional health is such a mess, they need quality doctors.
Take Joey's mum, for instance.
If the local yokel had diagnosed her earlier, she might have survived.
You're lying about why you're back.
Oh, and how can you tell? You're talking.
Two pales, Jessie.
Uh, just a water for me, thanks, Jessie.
Don't you have lovely eyes?
Are you really not going to have a beer with me?
I'm on antibiotics. Got the clap again?
He's joking. I'm a doctor.
If I did, I'd kill myself.
Thanks. She is too young for you.
So, how are you and Charlie? Great. Yeah.
I love her, she loves me, we love it here.
We're building something really great.
That's great. Yeah.
Who would have thought that I'd end up with everything?
Now, tell your little brother why you are really here.
Oh, I came back to take all off you.
Agh! Got him! You little...
Argh! I give, I give, give. Oh!
(GROANS)
Only 'cause of my hands. Course.
Hey!
I am actually really glad you're back.
Because I'm so much fun to have around.
(MALE VOICES SHOUT AND CHEER)
Oh, my legs!
You ain't got any legs left, soldier!
No legs! Nothing! (LAUGHS)
Hey.
So, Dad, I am going to stay for a while.
Yeah, I heard.
You are a doctor, right?
I am a surgeon. So, what is the difference?
A surgeon is a genius touched by God
and a doctor is someone who can remember a lot of stuff.
Are you being funny? I am. I thought so.
Well, I'm making some bullets later tonight if you want to help out.
He makes his own bullets? You're not the only smart one.
Mate, I'd look behind you. I think there's...
BOTH: Aw!
Walked straight into it! I did. Yeah!
(SHOUTING AND CHEERING CONTINUES)
(BIRD SCREECHES)
Injury at a property - head wound. The plane is ready.
Ken, we agreed no planes. (FIRMLY) The plane is ready.
Please Instagram your progress for people following us.
No-one is following us, Ken. No-one.
I hear you shagged his girlfriend on your desk.
You dirty bugger.
His what? Well, in his mind, she is his girlfriend.
It is tiny. True.
If we stall and we fall, you will die on impact.
It's almost painless, it's so fast.
That is not helpful. You're really scared?
Fear of flying is a medical condition, an anxiety disorder.
It is not cowardice.

OK. Thanks.
Where is this patient?
There was a lot of blood but I didn't want to touch it,
I don't like blood.
Well, I love it. Where is he? Is he conscious?
Yeah, he's just over there.
Hello there, young man. Get some gloves.
What have you done to yourself?
I don't know, but whatever it is, it doesn't feel too bad.
Ah. Tough country kids. I remember that.
Right, if you just stay still for me, I'll see what we have.
Aoife, get some saline, clean this out for me.
Do you feel dizzy? A bit, yeah.
A wasp came at me so I swung at it with the chainsaw.
Ah. Overkill. Been there.
Pulse is good and strong.
OK, done.
It's...
..a 4cm laceration.
Oh, you barely nicked yourself. You are a bleeder, though.
I might have overreacted. I told you I was fine.
All that blood coming from your child - of course you did.
We flew here.
On a plane. Hugh.
So, you really gave up being a big shot for this?
I'm the selfless type.
What is with Penny? Humourless lesbian?
She's not a lesbian. Did she tell you that?
She probably just doesn't want you making the moves.
Well, that is arrogant. No, I'd say it is wisdom.

Bit of give back to the community, that sort of thing.
Oh, Hugh, it's me!
I know how much you hate it here, how you love the city.
When we were at uni I used to MAKE you come and visit,
so what is going on?
I will find out. I'm very smart, as you know.
If I decide to find out, I will.
Alright, can we just not tell them? Matt, fine, but not Mum and Dad.
Deal.
(SIGHS) I fucked up.
There's the Hugh I know.
It was just an average day, morning, save a life.
I think a small hand seems appropriate.
And louder.

She'll be fine. She's stabilised. (SIGHS) It was a close call.
Great.
Jesus, I don't even know her. I found her and I...
Go home, Dr Knight.
Thanks. I appreciate this.
My name is Sasha, in case you were wondering.
We are very proud of our refurbished emergency rooms.
Let's just move through this way.
Fuck.
I may have pushed things a little bit too far
and not even realised it.
Well, that's your way. Really? Yeah.
You can't see what you're doing to people and you can't face yourself.
It is a little early for character assassination, isn't it?
It's just assessment. It's friendly assessment.
Right, and you're unbiased, are you? I mean, I hurt you.
What? What did you just say?
I hurt you. Thank you. Six years later.
You never said sorry, you know that?
Six years. And I don't even care, but you never even said sorry.
You are happy, aren't you? Things worked out well for you.
Yeah, I know!
But you send a postcard to your parents from Vegas with,
"I got married," written on it.
I am staying here and your mum comes in and shows me.
I really thought we agreed to a break when I went to Boston.
We agreed to wait.
Wait, break - very similar words.
(LAUGHS SARCASTICALLY)
It only lasted a few months. I get carried away!
You know that. I can't stop myself.
Mm-hm. What is that? There's a name for that.
Arsehole. That's it.
Good. Thank you.
Can't you go somewhere else?
Worried you're going to fall for me again?
You destroy stuff, Hugh.
You are careless with people and there's a lot I care about here.
Jesus, Charlie, I would if I could. I've got nowhere else.
Oh, poor Hugh.
You know, if I hadn't sent that postcard, we'd be married.
(SCOFFS)
How was your swim?
Great. Fine.
Bathers? I thought you liked your naked swims.
Yeah, I do, I just...
You know, it's getting colder and yabby bit my nipple the other day,
so for safety reasons, bathers.
You alright? Yeah, course.
Going to have a shower.
Ugh!
Look, I didn't know that she was your... possible girlfriend, mate.
Look, we really need to talk about this.
I forgot to mention - I need you to cover in emergency this evening.
Come on! Ken, we are grown men.
You just made yourself a very powerful,
if somewhat disorganised, enemy.
He can do that?
He does the admin, rosters, so he can.
In other news, you passed your urine test. Congratulations.
Yes, well, I have always been very good at exams.
Why are you smiling?
It'll be easier once you give in.
To what? Your new life.
This is not my new life.
I don't need a new life. I need to get back to my old life.
OK, enjoy emergency.
Remember, no surgery or you'll break your probation.
They will take your licence
and since I don't give a shit about you, I'll let them.
You know the hardest thing in life, Hugh?
Playing the cards you've been dealt. That is what grown-ups do.
I hate you.
You love me. Everyone does.
Your friend Joey, I can't get him into that professor guy for a month.
That's ridiculous. That's good!
I took them down from three months.
I applied all my heart-string, plucking,

I'm as good as it gets.
No. No?
Alan! Hugh. Where are you?
Fratelli. You have the calamari?
Yeah. Sabbatical.
Well, recharge. Parents were on death's door.
Hey, listen, I need you to make room on your list this week for me.
OK, then. Let me say this - I know what you did last summer.
(LAUGHS) Well, I appreciate it. Thanks so much.
OK, I owe you one. Bye.
Did you just blackmail him?
Appealed to his sense of self-preservation.
That saddens me.
We got one. Ambulance is on its way.
Hey, what have we got?
Stab wound in the chest, pulse is irregular, BP low.
Let's open this up for me.
Shit, it's right above his heart. Got to see how deep it is.
Jesus, your finger?!
It's a thicker surface. His chest is filling up with blood.
He needs a thoracotomy.
I'll get a chest tray. Thioproline for stitching.
Got to keep pressure on this ventricle to control the bleeding.
If he loses any more blood, he is going to die.
Right, you're going to cut.
I'm a nurse. We don't really do that.
Well, I can't...
I can't take my finger out.
Look, it is not that difficult.
You're going to slice a line 5cm either side of my finger, OK?
Get ready with that suction to clear the blood out,
then I'll suture around eight or so stitches.
Go.
Look, we are lucky. It's not that deep.
Are you good?
Good. Other side.
Good. Open him up.
Go.
Suction.
Alright, patch.
Suture.
Keep it clear.
Finger is coming out.
There'll be pressure, OK? Got you.
And coming out.
Good. Keep it clear.
One more.
That is done.
Jesus, that was awesome fun. I hope someone else gets stabbed.
Yes, that is the spirit, Florence Nightingale.
But it was like surgery. We did heart surgery.
No, you did surgery.
I just did a few stitches and stuck my finger in a hole.
It was all you, Aoife. You saved that man's life.
Look what he had in his pocket.
For home. You're welcome to come. I am a sharing type of person.
How do you know I'm not going to dob?
I know my kind when I see them. So, are you in?
You're exactly who I don't need right now.
Oh, I really think the opposite is true.
I'm going home.
Ah, the words say no but the eyes say yes.
I know a man who parties when I see one.
I used to have a gift for it. A gift!
But I've changed. Really? Well, good for you.
Now, if you don't mind, I'm going home to 13 Smith Street
to get off my beautiful face.

Hey, Dad. Do you want a beer?
I had this guy come in with a stab wound in his heart? Shoosh.
Mum, you around?
GIRL: Giving him his life like that.
Hey, did I tell you about the rapture?
Well, what happens, right -
so when Jesus comes back for a second time,
anybody who believes will go to heaven
and everyone who is dead and buried...
(WOMAN LAUGHS)
(LAUGHS)
Well, what a surprise.
A man can change.
Tomorrow I will be that man.
