wavs/markus-1.wav|Do we have enough blood on hand? If not, then make arrangements. Have Erik make a quick trip to the blood center. Now what about the x-rays? wavs/markus-2.wav|It's hard to believe, but situations like this don't seem to faze me anymore. And here I thought I was going to be able to kick back and enjoy the northern lights every night. wavs/markus-3.wav|Alright, let's get down to business. I have dinner reservations. wavs/markus-4.wav|We don't have time to wait. We have to begin the procedure immediately. wavs/markus-5.wav|Time is of the essence. Let's get started. wavs/markus-6.wav|So far, so good. wavs/markus-7.wav|That takes care of the external wounds. Let's move on to treating his arm. wavs/markus-8.wav|Man, this is like a jigsaw puzzle. wavs/markus-9.wav|That does it. Let's close him up. wavs/markus-10.wav|The bleeding stopped. Hand me the bandage. wavs/markus-11.wav|looks like this bone is warped. wavs/markus-12.wav|Good idea, but don't serve him anything fancy. We don't want him getting too comfortable. wavs/markus-13.wav|It did. So when are they going to give us the key to the city? We are making Alaska safe for tourists, after all. wavs/markus-14.wav|No, not at all. Just let me know if anything comes up. I'll be at Lucky's, enjoying some grilled salmon. wavs/markus-15.wav|Why wouldn't you be? wavs/markus-16.wav|Well, I'm still alive. So let's just try to get through this together, alright? Now, the bad news is you have a tumor. But the good news is it's benign, so don't worry. I can perform this operation in my sleep. Okay, the nurses will help you get ready, so please return to your room. wavs/markus-17.wav|Why in the world would they want me to come back? wavs/markus-18.wav|Oh, Doctor Hoover. I have an operation to prepare for, so... wavs/markus-19.wav|Perfect timing. I was just looking over those documents he gave me. I'm sorry, but I can't agree to this. wavs/markus-20.wav|I couldn't do that to this place. How would you function without us? So even if it's a direct order, I can't comply. You understand, don't you? wavs/markus-21.wav|Well, I don't know about her, but there's no way I'm going back. wavs/markus-22.wav|Please excuse me, Doctor Hoover. I have an operation to perform. wavs/markus-23.wav|Sorry, could you review the briefing? wavs/markus-24.wav|The Powell procedure, huh? Well, that may be difficult for a reject doctor like me. wavs/markus-25.wav|Yeah, you're right, Val. Let's get started. wavs/markus-26.wav|Alright, let's continue with the Powell procedure. wavs/markus-27.wav|For me, there will. wavs/markus-28.wav|Too bad we can't leave, though. We finally managed to dodge the late shift, and we're stuck here anyway. Well, this bed has my name on it, so I'm going to get some much-needed sleep. wavs/markus-29.wav|Don't worry, they won't be sending anyone out here in this weather. wavs/markus-30.wav|The IV, BGA, and CT are all ready to go. So is the blood count and cross-matching test. Looks like the storm's headed our way. wavs/markus-31.wav|Finally, some good news. So does she have a name? wavs/markus-32.wav|I'm surprised Concordia sent someone as young as you. wavs/markus-33.wav|Have we met before? wavs/markus-34.wav|There's no time to waste. wavs/markus-35.wav|Alright, let's begin. wavs/markus-36.wav|But first, we should clarify some things. What instructions did Professor Wilkens give you prior to coming here, Elena? wavs/markus-37.wav|What? wavs/markus-38.wav|Now I remember, so you're that little girl. wavs/markus-39.wav|Elena has intractable pancreatic necrosis, an extremely rare genetic immune system disorder. The disease surfaces due to stress caused by aging, viruses, or chemical substances. If left untreated, it could cause septicemia, cellular necrosis, and a severe case of pancreatitis. wavs/markus-40.wav|Thankfully, an effective immune suppressant was developed in 2015. So now the disorder can be treated by implanting a high efficiency pump system in the patient. wavs/markus-41.wav|Yeah, it's designed to last for 20 years. wavs/markus-42.wav|Placing the pump unit is no easy task, and tampering with the implanted unit might cause stress and trigger an acute reaction. An inexperienced doctor wouldn't even attempt such an operation. wavs/markus-43.wav|Marcy, please refrigerate them at once. The patient appears to be in good condition, but that doesn't mean we have time to spare. Once the preliminary test results are in, we'll need to operate immediately. wavs/markus-44.wav|Yeah, it'll require some preparation. wavs/markus-45.wav|remain centered, breathe, focus. As the stars have taught me, I am one with life. I am one with now. Remain centered, breathe, focus. Should have unplugged the phone. Yeah, who is it? wavs/markus-46.wav|Professor Wilkens, it would have been nice if I could have finished meditating. wavs/markus-47.wav|Look, I'll perform the surgery on Elena. Just don't expect me to return to Concordia. wavs/markus-48.wav|What are you trying to say? wavs/markus-49.wav|What? Didn't I tell you that it was too dangerous to tamper with? wavs/markus-50.wav|Professor Wilkens has Stigma. I can't believe it. wavs/markus-51.wav|Yeah, I'm fine, thanks. wavs/markus-52.wav|Well, if all goes as planned, I won't need to. Don't worry, Elena. Everything will be fine. wavs/markus-53.wav|Well, they went to the trouble of including instructions from the designer himself, so I'll indicate when you should bring them out. Fortunately, his directions are perfectly clear. I'll have to thank Professor Kerensky. wavs/markus-54.wav|Alright, let's go over this one more time. The objective of this operation is to readjust the pump unit installed in the pancreas. Depending on the condition of the pump, we'll most likely have to change the control chips. There's a high risk that there may be hemorrhaging as a result of the chip exchange. Follow my lead and keep in mind that we may need to make some changes along the way. wavs/markus-55.wav|Okay, keep them on hand so they'll be ready when I call for them. Okay, let's begin. wavs/markus-56.wav|The wounds have been treated, but it's only a matter of time before it ruptures again. We're going to have to replace the implant's control chips. First we'll have to disable the current chips, then we can exchange them with the new ones. wavs/markus-57.wav|I had a bad feeling something would go wrong. I guess I have no choice. Remain centered. Breathe. Focus. As the stars have taught me. Now, let's finish this. Okay, I've got some time until it hemorrhages again. I need to continue the operation while I can. The implant's adjustments are complete. Let's treat the remaining wounds here. wavs/markus-58.wav|We're done here. Sorry, but I'll have to leave the rest to you. I think I overdid it. wavs/markus-59.wav|Yeah, I'm exhausted. How's our patient? wavs/markus-60.wav|That sounds good, but I'd probably end up freezing to death. wavs/markus-61.wav|All right, enough with the sarcasm. wavs/markus-62.wav|Don't sell yourself short, Val. wavs/markus-63.wav|You didn't come here for the tropical weather. You came to refine your techniques, to learn the Healing Touch. But if you've already given up on that, then there's no reason to stay here. wavs/markus-64.wav|Sorry, Val. That didn't come out right. I'm not very good at giving pep talks. All I can think to say is, try harder. Which isn't very helpful, huh? wavs/markus-65.wav|I guess when it comes to interpersonal communication, I'm no Doctor Montgomery, huh? Well, maybe if you pray hard enough, he'll visit you in your dreams and teach you the right way. wavs/markus-66.wav|Let's see. Your amylase count is good, your pancreas is functioning normally, your white blood cell count is fine, and I don't see any problems with your immune system. wavs/markus-67.wav|Just let me know if you think you're recovering too quickly. I can change some of these numbers and extend your vacation. wavs/markus-68.wav|What? wavs/markus-69.wav|Why did he let his condition get so bad? wavs/markus-70.wav|I'm concerned about his physical condition. He's not young and this operation will be stressful. wavs/markus-71.wav|That's right. He's in good hands. I won't let him die. Let's begin. wavs/markus-72.wav|We've found a tumor. Let's use the Powell procedure here. wavs/markus-73.wav|It looks like that's everything, but his vitals aren't stabilizing. wavs/markus-74.wav|The tumor's been extracted. Now to treat the area around the excision. When we're done here, we should check out some other areas. wavs/markus-75.wav|There's still more to do here. wavs/markus-76.wav|Well, we were able to remove all the tumors from your small intestine, sir. You should be up and around in about a week or so, but... wavs/markus-77.wav|Congratulations, you're recovering extremely well. I don't see any problems with your pancreas. You're free to return to LA whenever you're ready. wavs/markus-78.wav|You don't give up easily, do you? Sorry, but the answer's still no. Trust me, I have my reasons. You don't owe me anything. You need to think about your future. wavs/markus-79.wav|I don't think you want to put your fate in the hands of a doctor who's about to lose his job. Go back to Concordia. You owe them an explanation. wavs/markus-80.wav|She's in no condition to be moved. We'll have to treat her at the scene. She's lodged beneath the frame of the church. Our equipment's already been loaded onto the helicopter. wavs/markus-81.wav|I can't let you do that. You're still- wavs/markus-82.wav|Suit yourself, but it's your life that's on the line. wavs/markus-83.wav|It's risky, but we'll have to leave her where she is for now. Elena, get the instruments and anesthesia ready. wavs/markus-84.wav|All right, Valerie, you take the lead. wavs/markus-85.wav|We don't have time to transport her back to the hospital. If Valerie's diagnosis is correct, we need to drain the blood. wavs/markus-86.wav|Alright, Val. You lead, and I'll assist. wavs/markus-87.wav|Should we risk carrying her out now? Her vitals are still unstable, but... wavs/markus-88.wav|This isn't good. Was there another collapse? wavs/markus-89.wav|Don't tell me. What was that? wavs/markus-90.wav|No, we can't continue. Call for backup immediately. wavs/markus-91.wav|Alright, let's head back then. She's made it through the worst of it, but we still need to watch for signs of crush syndrome. wavs/markus-92.wav|You did it, Valerie. I knew you had it in you, but I never imagined your gift would awaken so suddenly. wavs/markus-93.wav|Yeah, I guess I've got some thinking to do myself. wavs/markus-94.wav|No worries. This is the hand fate's dealt us. As long as I remember that Concordia is just a stepping stone, it won't be that bad. wavs/markus-95.wav|If you happen to relapse, please contact me immediately. I'll drop whatever I'm doing and come operate on you. wavs/markus-96.wav|I gave Concordia a number of conditions under which Valerie and I would return, Elena. The most important being that you would be our assistant in the operating room. wavs/markus-97.wav|Val, the operation that the professor is asking us to perform will be extremely difficult. If we're going to be successful, we'll have to work together. wavs/markus-98.wav|Morning. What are you doing out here? Aren't you going in? wavs/markus-99.wav|Well, it's been three years, so I can't say I'm surprised. All right, I'll go straighten things out. wavs/markus-100.wav|Hey, Doctor Rousseau, it's been a long time. wavs/markus-101.wav|I heard that you became chief surgeon. Congratulations. wavs/markus-102.wav|Sorry, I've been a little out of the loop. wavs/markus-103.wav|Alright, we'll go see him. wavs/markus-104.wav|At least you know what to expect from him, Doctor Wilkens. wavs/markus-105.wav|Yeah, it took me a while to decide. Have you been bedridden? wavs/markus-106.wav|Yeah, I'm sure he will. Well, we'll get to work then. Call if you need anything. wavs/markus-107.wav|Is that what you want me to do? wavs/markus-108.wav|Valerie, are you in? We've got an operation to perform. wavs/markus-109.wav|Rousseau took the liberty of volunteering us. Nice guy, huh? I have a feeling this is just a taste of what's to come. wavs/markus-110.wav|Please continue, Elena. wavs/markus-111.wav|We'll try not to disappoint you. Ready to begin. wavs/markus-112.wav|otherwise it could lead to inflammation. wavs/markus-113.wav|So far so good, but according to the diagnostics, the affected area may be larger than it appears. We need to use the magnification tool to take a closer look. wavs/markus-114.wav|Surprised? wavs/markus-115.wav|Why us and not a cardiologist? wavs/markus-116.wav|The same pacemaker you're using? wavs/markus-117.wav|Chloe, you heard that your heart isn't doing well, right? Right now you're okay because doctors put a machine in you that helps your heart. But we found out that machine isn't working like it should. So if we don't put in a new machine, your chest is going to hurt. You don't want your chest to hurt, do you? wavs/markus-118.wav|Alright then, the operation is going to be tomorrow. Let's both do our best. wavs/markus-119.wav|This operation has nothing to do with the professor's orders. Let's just concentrate on doing our best for that kid, okay? wavs/markus-120.wav|Me, Doctor Chen? wavs/markus-121.wav|How did he get in? wavs/markus-122.wav|That's right. Since I'm the new guy, I have no choice but to follow orders. wavs/markus-123.wav|I'll do my best to live up to those expectations. wavs/markus-124.wav|Of course, this is a very serious operation. wavs/markus-125.wav|It's true. wavs/markus-126.wav|Let's get started. wavs/markus-127.wav|If I remember correctly, it's the same model as the professor's. wavs/markus-128.wav|We'll have to massage the heart by hand. wavs/markus-129.wav|But we can't relax until we've completed the operation. wavs/markus-130.wav|False alarm. Let's continue. wavs/markus-131.wav|Good. It's working properly. She'll be alright now. wavs/markus-132.wav|I'm sure he hasn't forgotten. He must have his reasons. wavs/markus-133.wav|His mistress? wavs/markus-134.wav|I know him better than you do. wavs/markus-135.wav|She's from Caduceus? wavs/markus-136.wav|It sounds like trouble if you ask me. wavs/markus-137.wav|We can't afford to waste any time. His life's in jeopardy. wavs/markus-138.wav|This'll be a difficult operation. No wonder Rousseau took off so fast. wavs/markus-139.wav|Alright, let's begin the operation. wavs/markus-140.wav|Alright, we have a pulse. wavs/markus-141.wav|We won't be able to suture that big of a wound. We'll have to close it first with the forceps. wavs/markus-142.wav|Now that we've taken care of the wounds, we can reassemble the bone fragments. wavs/markus-143.wav|Alright, let's place the last bone fragment. wavs/markus-144.wav|I'm sorry, you are? wavs/markus-145.wav|Valerie, is this the woman you were telling me about? wavs/markus-146.wav|I don't think it was good for her to have seen that. wavs/markus-147.wav|It's not worth getting upset over. The patient is alright, that's all that matters. Professor Wilkens has asked to see us, so we'd better get going. wavs/markus-148.wav|I'm just glad the patient's okay. wavs/markus-149.wav|I didn't want to come back. wavs/markus-150.wav|Okay. wavs/markus-151.wav|Yeah, but he won't be operating. wavs/markus-152.wav|Curiosity, man's greatest weakness. wavs/markus-153.wav|Never mind. wavs/markus-154.wav|Infected accidentally? That can't be. That's not its nature. The professor's hiding something. wavs/markus-155.wav|Should someone with your condition be up at this hour? wavs/markus-156.wav|I'll save your life. What more do you want? wavs/markus-157.wav|What? wavs/markus-158.wav|Burn it with the laser. That's the only way. wavs/markus-159.wav|Relax. We've got it under control. He's right. This is an important procedure. We can't afford to fail. wavs/markus-160.wav|We need to suture the wounds immediately and try to prevent any further damage. wavs/markus-161.wav|Alright, let's do this. Get the laser ready. wavs/markus-162.wav|Wait, he's not stabilizing. We better take another look. wavs/markus-163.wav|It was my responsibility. wavs/markus-164.wav|No, nothing. I should just be thankful that it went well. wavs/markus-165.wav|I hope this is the last we see of it, though. wavs/markus-166.wav|The operation was a success. All the pathogens were removed, and your heart is functioning normally. wavs/markus-167.wav|Then we'll return later to explain your status. wavs/markus-168.wav|Are you just going to pretend it doesn't exist? wavs/markus-169.wav|That's only because they lack the knowledge. wavs/markus-170.wav|Do you recall the incident that occurred 10 years ago? A deadly man-made infectious disease spread throughout the world. It was known as GUILT. wavs/markus-171.wav|Most likely not. The professor has already tested that vaccine on it. It had absolutely no effect. wavs/markus-172.wav|Looks like I better get used to being sleep-deprived. wavs/markus-173.wav|Meaning what exactly? wavs/markus-174.wav|That's not really my idea of a promotion. wavs/markus-175.wav|What about the professor's charts? wavs/markus-176.wav|He didn't mention anything to me. Is that the fire alarm? wavs/markus-177.wav|That man's on fire! We have to help him! wavs/markus-178.wav|Drop to the floor! Hurry! Valerie, isn't there a fire extinguisher around? wavs/markus-179.wav|Quick thinking, Elena. wavs/markus-180.wav|Rousseau? Is that you? wavs/markus-181.wav|Hang in there. We're going to get you some help. wavs/markus-182.wav|If we can't use synthetic skin, then that's our only option. wavs/markus-183.wav|Right, let's get started. wavs/markus-184.wav|These burns are pretty severe. Skin grafts are the only option. We'll have to remove skin from elsewhere before we can begin treating the burns. wavs/markus-185.wav|The most severe burns have already turned black. We'll need to excise this necrotic tissue. wavs/markus-186.wav|Almost done. wavs/markus-187.wav|The professor's office is nothing but ashes. Fortunately, no one seems to have been inside. But the professor's whereabouts are unknown, and we have reason to believe the data was stolen. According to what Rousseau said, the professor seems to have been kidnapped. What did the detectives ask you? wavs/markus-188.wav|I can't believe he was kidnapped. What's their motive? They obviously want more than just a ransom. wavs/markus-189.wav|If it's another investigator, then forget it. wavs/markus-190.wav|Thanks. wavs/markus-191.wav|So what does that mean? wavs/markus-192.wav|I can't believe it. We're going to Caduceus. wavs/markus-193.wav|You're forming a new team? What, is this an anti-Stigma measure? wavs/markus-194.wav|Thanks for your concern. But if we'll be dealing with mainly new diseases, then we'll be performing fewer operations. I hope that won't affect my salary. wavs/markus-195.wav|Well, that's good to hear. wavs/markus-196.wav|I hope we'll be able to live up to your high expectations. I was wondering, are we going to be questioned about the disappearance of the professor? wavs/markus-197.wav|Well, it can't be any worse than Concordia. I mean, we weren't exactly welcomed there. wavs/markus-198.wav|Not at all. Doctor Everett, I'm... wavs/markus-199.wav|Typical doctor, neglecting his own needs. wavs/markus-200.wav|Okay, let's get started. wavs/markus-201.wav|The gallbladder has been excised. This should prevent the gallstones from forming. wavs/markus-202.wav|You always see the positive, Val. wavs/markus-203.wav|Like she said, we always do our best. wavs/markus-204.wav|To be honest, I'm surprised there was a leak, no matter how small. wavs/markus-205.wav|What? wavs/markus-206.wav|Not really. A doctor considers any and all possibilities. wavs/markus-207.wav|Well, we've got more important things to worry about. We're leaving for the tech department tomorrow morning at 8, right? wavs/markus-208.wav|Alright, then I'm gonna go home and get some sleep. wavs/markus-209.wav|Now I feel right at home. wavs/markus-210.wav|He's definitely in bad shape. wavs/markus-211.wav|Okay, let's get started. wavs/markus-212.wav|The external wounds have been treated, but I assume that it can only be worse on the inside. Let's open him up and begin treating his internal organs. wavs/markus-213.wav|Use the magnification tool to change where we're looking. There should be other injuries nearby. wavs/markus-214.wav|It's 3 AM? Man, talk about a long day. wavs/markus-215.wav|Yeah, I guess that's the life of a doctor, no matter where you are. All right, I'll see you tomorrow, bright and early. wavs/markus-216.wav|I appreciate your vote of confidence, even if it is a bit exaggerated. wavs/markus-217.wav|Doctor Vaughn. wavs/markus-218.wav|Humani holds several lucrative pharmaceutical patents and leads the way in regenerative medicine. wavs/markus-219.wav|I'm Markus Vaughn. Sorry to interrupt such a touching reunion. wavs/markus-220.wav|Nothing like a little pressure. I don't mind though. That motivates me. wavs/markus-221.wav|Let's start. wavs/markus-222.wav|Yeah, I wouldn't mind doing more operations like this one. wavs/markus-223.wav|We'll check the patient's condition upon her arrival and then proceed with the operation. wavs/markus-224.wav|She was involved in an accident two months ago. Laceration on the right thigh. Looks like they used artificial blood for transfusion. Q heme blood from Syntec Labs to be exact. wavs/markus-225.wav|The affected area is the liver. The course of treatment will be determined during the procedure. However, I have a feeling this will be different than the professor's case. wavs/markus-226.wav|If it is Stigma, then there must be a core somewhere, even if it looks different. If we can find and attack it, we may be able to identify the key to stopping it. wavs/markus-227.wav|Call it a hunch. wavs/markus-228.wav|It's haunting me, wherever I go. wavs/markus-229.wav|It's nothing. Let's end this nightmare. wavs/markus-230.wav|Okay, let's begin. wavs/markus-231.wav|We can't do anything to it since the core has enveloped itself within the surrounding cellular tissue. The tissue itself looks highly viscous. Let's try draining it. wavs/markus-232.wav|Okay, then let's continue this and drag the core out. wavs/markus-233.wav|We can't use the drain on the hardened tissue. Use the laser to soften it up. wavs/markus-234.wav|The core has to be in one of them. Use the drain to find it. wavs/markus-235.wav|Is this a tumor? Let's burn it with a laser. wavs/markus-236.wav|Let's extract it with the Powell procedure. First, use the drain on the hardened tumor. wavs/markus-237.wav|I hope this is the last time we have to perform an operation in the dark. wavs/markus-238.wav|Just give me a strong cup of Joe and I'll crank it out. wavs/markus-239.wav|I guess I'm just lucky. The results from the liver exam indicate that the patient has been making satisfactory progress. She seems to be recovering well, but it's unclear how this disease was transmitted in the first place. We should continue monitoring her for at least another month. wavs/markus-240.wav|And he was able to recover from that. Incredible. Looks like the system's produced by Columba and Cornix, the same company that made Elena's pump. wavs/markus-241.wav|He didn't want to forget anything, so he opted to have his memory augmented, huh. I assume they're keeping it quiet. Do we need to worry about being in violation of state law? wavs/markus-242.wav|Even a tiny mistake could debilitate his brain. We better be careful. wavs/markus-243.wav|Alright, let's begin. wavs/markus-244.wav|Since we're operating on the brain, even the smallest mistake can be fatal. We'll have to be extremely careful. wavs/markus-245.wav|There's a chance that any of these vessels will turn into aneurysms. Have the magnification tool ready. Let's shift our viewpoint when necessary and treat the aneurysms when they appear. wavs/markus-246.wav|There's a chance that any of these vessels will turn into aneurysms. Have the magnification tool ready. Let's shift our viewpoint when necessary and treat the aneurysms when they appear. wavs/markus-247.wav|There's more where we're not looking. Once we treat the ones in sight, we have to quickly change our focus. wavs/markus-248.wav|Columba and Cornix's brain electrodes and pump units may seem cutting edge, but it won't be long before they're made available to the general public. Just like the pacemaker, Professor Wilkens had one. Why do I have this nagging feeling? wavs/markus-249.wav|Everyone who's contracted Stigma has had some kind of artificial agent in their body. Even that one patient who was transferred here had Syntec's Q heme blood. I was using artificial blood with my test mouse, too. I wonder if there's a connection. Of course. wavs/markus-250.wav|I doubt I can tell you more than you already know, ma'am. Since he was brought here promptly, cerebral ischemia was kept to a minimum. And there are no signs of severe paralysis, so we shouldn't have to worry about any after effects. We can't use the MRI, so we'll take another CAT scan tomorrow. Will you be advising on his rehab, ma'am? wavs/markus-251.wav|Yeah, I feel sorry for the guy. But I'd like to leave him in the hands of the others so I can concentrate on Stigma. wavs/markus-252.wav|What makes you say that? wavs/markus-253.wav|Of course not. wavs/markus-254.wav|You wouldn't believe the patient I'm dealing with. He's throwing a fit because his operation isn't expensive enough. wavs/markus-255.wav|Yeah, his friend just had a hernia operation that cost 40,000 dollars and he doesn't want to be outdone. He's 11 years old and filling the role of a trust fund brat perfectly. I guess it wasn't enough for him that his father pulled some strings to get him into this place. He's the son of some big shot and neither of his parents have the time to bring him here. wavs/markus-256.wav|About 30,000 dollars. The operation will be performed in a deluxe suite. Not bad for a case of appendicitis, huh? wavs/markus-257.wav|Unfortunately, money talks, even when it comes to healthcare. wavs/markus-258.wav|No, why? wavs/markus-259.wav|We have the best room reserved for you, so let's get started. wavs/markus-260.wav|Pretty sneaky, Val. To be honest, I'm impressed. wavs/markus-261.wav|Ah, it'll be fine. It's in both their best interests anyway, so it all works out. wavs/markus-262.wav|We understand the situation. This is going to be two operations back-to-back, so let's be quick. We're going to save them both, of course. Let's get started. wavs/markus-263.wav|It's still too late to treat it with antibiotics. It would be best to perform an appendectomy. wavs/markus-264.wav|The appendix has been tied. Now for the base. wavs/markus-265.wav|Let's move on to our next patient. wavs/markus-266.wav|Don't tell me. His appendix has burst. wavs/markus-267.wav|It's peritonitis. wavs/markus-268.wav|Rich or poor, we're all the same under the knife. I never thought such a simple operation could put me on edge like this. wavs/markus-269.wav|I didn't do any volunteer work. wavs/markus-270.wav|Thanks, but I'll pass. Philadelphia is too far. It'd be a waste of my vacation. Besides, Robert finished his report on Stigma, and I'd like to review it. wavs/markus-271.wav|If it was that important, Caduceus would be all over it. A parasite isn't going to help us understand Stigma any better. I have no interest in a new variety of hookworm. wavs/markus-272.wav|Hey, I didn't say I was going. wavs/markus-273.wav|I suppose. It would have been a lot more interesting, though, if the operation hadn't been performed on a dog. wavs/markus-274.wav|Look at that guy, he's driving like a maniac. I hope he gets pulled over. wavs/markus-275.wav|Yeah, like if we ever have to save a celebrity's pampered pooch. I never should have let you talk me into this. wavs/markus-276.wav|Huh? wavs/markus-277.wav|Today's just not my day. It's worse than I thought. Someone was thrown from the car. wavs/markus-278.wav|He's breathing, but he's unconscious. The wounds on his chest are pretty bad. He's not looking so great. wavs/markus-279.wav|Well, this has turned out to be one hell of a road trip. This is an emergency. We have to stabilize him. wavs/markus-280.wav|We need to treat these external wounds first. wavs/markus-281.wav|This doesn't look good. wavs/markus-282.wav|His vitals still aren't stabilizing. We must have missed something. We'll have to use the magnification tool. wavs/markus-283.wav|Finally, his vitals are stabilizing. He should be all right now. wavs/markus-284.wav|Well, we at least accomplished something worthwhile on this trip. wavs/markus-285.wav|I don't like where this is headed. wavs/markus-286.wav|Seems like a complete farce to me. So what does this have to do with us? wavs/markus-287.wav|Let them say what they want. They'll eat their words eventually. wavs/markus-288.wav|That's why you wanted to see us? wavs/markus-289.wav|I wouldn't bet on it. One of the conditions is that if we win, they take this show off the air. wavs/markus-290.wav|Hey. wavs/markus-291.wav|Will that guy ever shut up? Just ignore the glitz and stay calm. Let's prove ourselves out there. wavs/markus-292.wav|Let's handle this like we always do, Val. Just concentrate on the patient. wavs/markus-293.wav|There must be another tumor. Let's take a look with the magnification tool. wavs/markus-294.wav|What? Where's all this blood coming from? wavs/markus-295.wav|It'll be faster if we do it by hand. wavs/markus-296.wav|The bleeding won't stop until we take care of all these tumors. wavs/markus-297.wav|Are these tumors multiplying somewhere? wavs/markus-298.wav|The hemorrhaging's severe. Hand me the drain, please. wavs/markus-299.wav|Let's close him up and get this circus over with. wavs/markus-300.wav|You completely fell for their trap, Val. wavs/markus-301.wav|Why are we treating surgery like a competitive sport? wavs/markus-302.wav|I understand, Robert. Thanks. wavs/markus-303.wav|Maybe so, but I'd rather be researching Stigma. wavs/markus-304.wav|Our only concern is the welfare of the patient, nothing more, nothing less. wavs/markus-305.wav|Got it. Are you okay, Val? wavs/markus-306.wav|This guy isn't helping, is he? Well, let's do this. Lights, camera, action. wavs/markus-307.wav|Must be that surprise he mentioned. Just ignore it. wavs/markus-308.wav|He has the Healing Touch. wavs/markus-309.wav|We're leaving, Valerie. wavs/markus-310.wav|We're in hostile territory. There's no reason for us to stick around, no matter what the results are. Let's not give them another opportunity to criticize us. wavs/markus-311.wav|Is it your penance for the fiasco? wavs/markus-312.wav|How old fashioned. Dear Caduceus staff, congratulations on your recent appearance on Miracle Surgery. Seeing you perform that operation on national television really inspired me. That's why I believe it's now my turn to make an appearance. Is this guy a doctor trying to promote himself? Or is this another challenge? wavs/markus-313.wav|Is he the one who created it? Is he the one who kidnapped Professor Wilkens? wavs/markus-314.wav|The membrane fell off. We'll have to start over with the drain. wavs/markus-315.wav|It's a new type of Stigma. Bello can't handle this. Even with his skills, he doesn't know how to deal with it. wavs/markus-316.wav|He pushed himself too hard. I guess he doesn't know his own limit. Make sure you take good care of him. wavs/markus-317.wav|Did you notice anything while Doctor Bello was operating? wavs/markus-318.wav|Revenge has nothing to do with this. We're here because there's a patient in need. wavs/markus-319.wav|Now, let's save a life! wavs/markus-320.wav|We should be able to burn it with the laser. Let's begin. wavs/markus-321.wav|Well, we must have put on one hell of a show. wavs/markus-322.wav|Valerie, why don't you start wrapping it up? wavs/markus-323.wav|Nice to meet you. wavs/markus-324.wav|So, are you here to show us your latest product? wavs/markus-325.wav|Actually, I was only there for a brief stint, so... wavs/markus-326.wav|I'll pass. Thanks, though. wavs/markus-327.wav|We were transferred to Caduceus because of that incident. Unfortunately, he's still missing. wavs/markus-328.wav|They believe the professor's disappearance is related to Stigma. wavs/markus-329.wav|He taunted us with his pathetic drivel. Even a chimpanzee could write a better letter. wavs/markus-330.wav|Yeah, looks like he hurt his elbow. wavs/markus-331.wav|Hmm. I wonder if our anesthetic will even affect him if he's that worked up. wavs/markus-332.wav|Is this anesthesia still being tested? wavs/markus-333.wav|Let's get started. wavs/markus-334.wav|The ligament's completely torn and that stick fragment's embedded pretty deep. wavs/markus-335.wav|What would cause this sudden convulsing? wavs/markus-336.wav|We can't rule out anything at this point. wavs/markus-337.wav|Are you experiencing any discomfort? Do you have any numbness from the anesthesia? wavs/markus-338.wav|We should report this to President Nilsen. He should know that there is a high probability the new anesthesia may not work if the patient's excited. wavs/markus-339.wav|That explains it. wavs/markus-340.wav|Oh, nothing. I was just surprised to hear that, that's all. wavs/markus-341.wav|Oh, I'm being paged. If you'll excuse me, ma'am. Let's go, Val. wavs/markus-342.wav|What's the situation, Elena? wavs/markus-343.wav|What? Kanae? wavs/markus-344.wav|What are you talking about? Look at the condition you're in. wavs/markus-345.wav|Don't worry, your cousin will be fine. It's unlike you to fall apart at the seams. wavs/markus-346.wav|We won't know for sure until we take a look inside. But depending on the patient's condition, we may need to focus on keeping his vitals up first. wavs/markus-347.wav|Okay, let's get started. wavs/markus-348.wav|We have a pulse, but in this condition, he won't last very long if we continue. wavs/markus-349.wav|It's hemorrhaging again. This is a vicious cycle. wavs/markus-350.wav|I hope she isn't straining herself. wavs/markus-351.wav|Any leads? wavs/markus-352.wav|Hold on, just calm down. wavs/markus-353.wav|We weren't able to remove all of the damage to your liver. It would be dangerous to leave it. wavs/markus-354.wav|That's right, Kanae told us how you learned karate and became an actor. wavs/markus-355.wav|I'm sure it has. Karate is more than just kicks and punches, right? wavs/markus-356.wav|Then show me some of that mental discipline during the operation, okay? If a patient maintains a strong will, then his body will respond likewise. The rest is up to us. Trust me, you'll be back on the set in no time, ready to be a leading man. wavs/markus-357.wav|The patient's condition has worsened. We need to figure out why. wavs/markus-358.wav|Alright, let's get started. wavs/markus-359.wav|All the synthetic membranes we applied to seal the wound are gone. wavs/markus-360.wav|There's no doubt that this injury is the source of the hemorrhaging. wavs/markus-361.wav|We'll have to investigate it again while reapplying the synthetic membranes. wavs/markus-362.wav|The area is hemorrhaging again. Drain the blood and apply a synthetic membrane. wavs/markus-363.wav|Hold on. We just turned onto 7th, so... Yeah, this is right. I think. wavs/markus-364.wav|Yeah. I'll turn right at the next intersection. That should take us to- wavs/markus-365.wav|Elena! wavs/markus-366.wav|What did you just do? wavs/markus-367.wav|What do you want from us? wavs/markus-368.wav|Where am I? wavs/markus-369.wav|Val. Elena. That's right, we've been kidnapped. Are you two okay? wavs/markus-370.wav|An operating table. I can guess why we were brought here, but are they going to keep us locked up in this room? wavs/markus-371.wav|What, too ugly to show your face? wavs/markus-372.wav|Nice little business you got here. wavs/markus-373.wav|And what if I refuse? wavs/markus-374.wav|Let's just think about the patient for now. wavs/markus-375.wav|In all likelihood, yes. How else could they know so much? wavs/markus-376.wav|I hope he's all right. wavs/markus-377.wav|You again. wavs/markus-378.wav|I hope you drive yourself off a cliff. wavs/markus-379.wav|You expect us to operate without proper sterilization? wavs/markus-380.wav|We've got no choice. If it becomes infected we'll deal with it later. wavs/markus-381.wav|Neither can I. But we have to focus on treating the patient. Now what does the chart say? wavs/markus-382.wav|But if it's accurate, then the Stigma is appearing and disappearing over time. wavs/markus-383.wav|That's good to know. At least we won't be entering this operation completely blind. The claw, huh? Let's begin. wavs/markus-384.wav|We need to get a look inside her first. Let's see what this claw they keep boasting about is. wavs/markus-385.wav|It's highly possible that it's hiding somewhere nearby. Let's use the ultrasound to find it. wavs/markus-386.wav|Let's finish this thing off. wavs/markus-387.wav|It's making copies of itself to confuse us. wavs/markus-388.wav|How's that? Did we do it? Let's treat the remaining wounds and see what happens. wavs/markus-389.wav|We saved the patient, let's just leave it at that. wavs/markus-390.wav|I know it won't be easy, but let's try to keep our cool. This may not be the Ritz, but we should try to get some rest. wavs/markus-391.wav|Good night, Elena. wavs/markus-392.wav|We have no reason to believe that a rescue team is on its way, and there's been no talk of a ransom. I hate to say this, but the situation looks grim. wavs/markus-393.wav|We could use our scalpels as weapons, but the risk is too high. I don't think we should. It's better to wait a little while longer and see what their next move is. wavs/markus-394.wav|Scrap the scalpel idea. Let's use anesthesia to knock him out. wavs/markus-395.wav|This is a shotgun wound. wavs/markus-396.wav|Serves you right, pal. See what a mess you got yourself into. wavs/markus-397.wav|We need blood. Artificial is fine. wavs/markus-398.wav|We're in a race against time. wavs/markus-399.wav|We don't have a choice. He won't survive unless we operate. Now. wavs/markus-400.wav|Alright, let's do this. wavs/markus-401.wav|If worse comes to worse, we'll just have to suture them. It'll drop his vitals, but we have no choice. wavs/markus-402.wav|We've run out of antibiotic gel. Let's remove the synthetic membrane and start using sutures. wavs/markus-403.wav|We don't have any more antibiotic gel. We'll have to suture it. wavs/markus-404.wav|It's been properly placed, let's move on. wavs/markus-405.wav|That'll do it for the external wounds. wavs/markus-406.wav|We'll just have to be quick. We can't afford any mistakes. wavs/markus-407.wav|It would be safer to use the membranes if we have antibiotic gel left, but just as we thought, suturing the wounds lowers the patient's vitals. wavs/markus-408.wav|It would have been safer to use the membranes, since we still had some antibiotic gel left. In any case, we're done here. wavs/markus-409.wav|Well, we couldn't avoid causing the patient's vitals to drop when we sutured the wound. In any case, we're done here. wavs/markus-410.wav|We finished it, somehow. wavs/markus-411.wav|He's got connections, it seems. wavs/markus-412.wav|Another day in paradise. I'd like to get some sun soon. wavs/markus-413.wav|What have you got in store for us now? wavs/markus-414.wav|That's impossible. Stigma can't be contracted that way. wavs/markus-415.wav|It seems Stigma is more dangerous than we thought. wavs/markus-416.wav|You're in charge here? wavs/markus-417.wav|Is this how you get your kicks? wavs/markus-418.wav|You're the creator of Stigma, Professor Wilkens? wavs/markus-419.wav|A secondary infection. That means Stigma has changed again. wavs/markus-420.wav|Just ignore him, Val. I'll save him, no matter what kind of Stigma he has. wavs/markus-421.wav|No matter what it tries, we're going to find it and cut it out. wavs/markus-422.wav|Did it inject toxins into the bloodstream? The ultrasound is useless if it's like this. wavs/markus-423.wav|It was completely different from the other Onyx. wavs/markus-424.wav|Isn't your director here today? wavs/markus-425.wav|Then I guess you don't need us anymore, huh? wavs/markus-426.wav|I'm a doctor. Find someone else to do your dirty work. wavs/markus-427.wav|Val, Elena, there's something I need to tell you. wavs/markus-428.wav|No, it has nothing to do with that. It's more of a confession. Back when I was helping the professor with his research, I made a number of genetically engineered mice for use in experiments. There was something different about one of them. It looked just like the others, but it held a terrible secret inside. wavs/markus-429.wav|It happened while I was operating on the subject's kidney. I was excising a tumor. That's when it came into contact with artificial blood and started growing at a frightening pace. That was the birth of Stigma. wavs/markus-430.wav|I disposed of the subject and proposed that we put a halt to the research, unleashing a new pathogen into the world in order to study its treatment. I argued that that was the wrong way to perform research, but the professor wouldn't listen. That's why I volunteered to go to Alaska, when I should have just quit. wavs/markus-431.wav|I had no idea you'd follow me there and get dragged into this mess. wavs/markus-432.wav|You realize that I may personally be responsible for the advent of Stigma? If it wasn't for me, none of this would have happened. And you too wouldn't be in this position. But I want you to know, as a doctor, I've always held the highest regard for human life. wavs/markus-433.wav|Thanks. I appreciate it. wavs/markus-434.wav|Thanks, but I think I'll stick with the original choice. I'd rather die than work for a scumbag like you. wavs/markus-435.wav|How far are they planning on taking this nonsense? wavs/markus-436.wav|Why is he using a toy? What the hell's wrong with this guy? wavs/markus-437.wav|Yeah, but my bet is they don't think we can do it. wavs/markus-438.wav|All right, let's get this over with. wavs/markus-439.wav|You said something about connect the four friends. wavs/markus-440.wav|Yeah, right, I'm not planning on drowning in here. wavs/markus-441.wav|So, he's one of those kinds of people. wavs/markus-442.wav|It connected, but is this right? wavs/markus-443.wav|Then let's get a move on. Where are we? wavs/markus-444.wav|That's right. We were able to escape. wavs/markus-445.wav|Come on, we have to keep moving. wavs/markus-446.wav|Something caught my attention while we were being held captive. It concerns Professor Wilkens. I think he may be a member of the Kidman family. wavs/markus-447.wav|Well, you know that guy they refer to as the director? His face was hidden, but he was definitely the same height and had the same build as the professor. He also appeared to be the center of their research on Stigma. If he is Professor Wilkens, then this would all make sense. wavs/markus-448.wav|I'm not positive, but it seems very likely. I just can't figure out how he got mixed up with them. wavs/markus-449.wav|Well, at least we're not out of practice, having been forced to operate while we were held captive. wavs/markus-450.wav|Did something happen? wavs/markus-451.wav|It's a shame to lose someone like her, but we can't dwell on it. Let's prepare for the operation, Val. wavs/markus-452.wav|I hear this is a new strain of Stigma. wavs/markus-453.wav|Sounds like a complicated procedure. wavs/markus-454.wav|No problem. It's good to be back. Now, let's get started. wavs/markus-455.wav|Let's try using that new stuff. We're supposed to inject it into the grapplers, correct? wavs/markus-456.wav|We have to find a way to stop the toxin from spreading. wavs/markus-457.wav|Alright, let's give it a shot. wavs/markus-458.wav|I forgot what it's like to have a real operating room. wavs/markus-459.wav|So it's no different than usual. wavs/markus-460.wav|Culuruma is a hotbed for guerrilla activity. It's a time bomb waiting to go off. What do you think, Val? wavs/markus-461.wav|If we're trying to convince ourselves, we could say it's to protect the world from Stigma. wavs/markus-462.wav|We hope that we can be of assistance. wavs/markus-463.wav|They seem a bit suspicious. wavs/markus-464.wav|Yeah, he has his hands full between the guerrillas and the economy. And add to that Stigma. wavs/markus-465.wav|Look at her eye, Val. It's all red. Maria, did you get your immunization shots before returning here? wavs/markus-466.wav|As a doctor, you should know better. Val, she might have Vaimahse fever. If that's the case, she'll need immediate treatment. wavs/markus-467.wav|Supposedly it causes unusual tumors in the lungs. That's all I know. wavs/markus-468.wav|You're right. These fluctuating numbers are a cause for concern. It seems like they're periodically rising and falling. wavs/markus-469.wav|All right, let's get started. wavs/markus-470.wav|We'll still have to be exceptionally cautious. Look at it. It's changing colors periodically. It's like a chameleon. wavs/markus-471.wav|Whoa, it's happening again. What is this? wavs/markus-472.wav|We'll send the data back to Caduceus just in case. Let's close her up. wavs/markus-473.wav|Seeing a tumor change color like that was surprising to say the least. wavs/markus-474.wav|Well, we talked it over. wavs/markus-475.wav|She insists on coming, even if it kills her. wavs/markus-476.wav|As a patient, I would advise her not to go, but as a doctor, I must respect her decision. She studied medicine to help the people of this country, and now is their greatest hour of need. If we carefully monitor her condition along the way, will that ease your fears, Val? wavs/markus-477.wav|So the mine he's talking about, is it nearby? wavs/markus-478.wav|Who owns the mine? wavs/markus-479.wav|What about the victims of Stigma? wavs/markus-480.wav|Tell him to bring some of them to the army's camp. We'll operate once we're through examining them. And also, tell them not to worry about the cost because the president is footing the bill. wavs/markus-481.wav|There are three who need to be opened up immediately. Let's do one right after the other. wavs/markus-482.wav|Maria, these are going to be intense operations. Will you be all right? wavs/markus-483.wav|Not bad for a makeshift operating room. wavs/markus-484.wav|That's what we've got you for, Elena. wavs/markus-485.wav|This will be a race against time, so let's get started. wavs/markus-486.wav|Three Stigma patients in a row. This is going to be a crash course in Stigma treatment, Maria. wavs/markus-487.wav|We'll need to extract the tissue at the tips of the arms. Get Robert's new serum ready. wavs/markus-488.wav|Well, at least we don't have some idiot with a microphone shouting at us today. We'll be able to focus. wavs/markus-489.wav|Don't worry, I'm sure they will. wavs/markus-490.wav|Don't worry, I'm sure they will. wavs/markus-491.wav|Don't worry. I'm sure they will. wavs/markus-492.wav|Well, Maria, think you can remember all that? wavs/markus-493.wav|You know, there's one thing that's been bothering me. wavs/markus-494.wav|Why was the outbreak here so sudden? If it had something to do with Culurium, then it should have happened sooner. I just don't get it. Why now? Anyway, we need to have a look at that mine. Let's go talk to the commander. wavs/markus-495.wav|There's no reason to worry. We have Pepita with us, remember? Besides, it's pretty important. wavs/markus-496.wav|Let her be. She's probably just barking at shadows. But I have to admit, I'm a little disappointed. I wasn't expecting this mind to look so ordinary. wavs/markus-497.wav|Let's bring a sample back with us, even though we already have some of the imported metal. Valerie, do you think that the Stigma here occurred naturally? wavs/markus-498.wav|But for what reason? wavs/markus-499.wav|Remember what that bastard Kidman said? Stigma would be the ultimate weapon there. What if this place was targeted? wavs/markus-500.wav|Yeah, considering the amount of profit it generates, it wouldn't be surprising if they showed up here. Besides, this is the perfect place to test Stigma. wavs/markus-501.wav|No, Pepita, stay back. wavs/markus-502.wav|Well, we're not vets, but we gotta give it a shot. wavs/markus-503.wav|It's a shotgun wound. Looks like she was shot from a distance, though. wavs/markus-504.wav|Let's remove as many pellets as possible without opening her up, and then suture the wounds. wavs/markus-505.wav|All right, let's help this brave girl. wavs/markus-506.wav|We've got no choice, just lower the voltage. wavs/markus-507.wav|If we calm down, we can do this. wavs/markus-508.wav|Right, or she'll bleed to death. We'll need to take care of it as we remove the pellets. wavs/markus-509.wav|Alright, her pulse is back. Let's continue the procedure. wavs/markus-510.wav|Let's drain the blood first and then see what needs to be done. wavs/markus-511.wav|Alright, it's out. Just need to set it in the tray. Now, we need to treat the wound. wavs/markus-512.wav|A little antibiotic gel should do the trick. wavs/markus-513.wav|She's going into cardiac arrest? We can't let her die now. wavs/markus-514.wav|Let's get back to camp and leave the rest to the pro. wavs/markus-515.wav|I wonder if she has any idea at all what we're saying. wavs/markus-516.wav|Yeah, maybe so. wavs/markus-517.wav|I'm glad it turned out okay. wavs/markus-518.wav|Sounds like a war is about to erupt. What are we supposed to do? wavs/markus-519.wav|All right, we'll do as you ask. wavs/markus-520.wav|But we'll only do it on the following conditions. First, you agree to use the profits earned by the mine to help Stigma patients. That includes aiding the villagers. If you truly represent the will of the people, then that shouldn't be a problem. Secondly, you must transport all injured combatants, friend or foe, to us. We're not taking sides. wavs/markus-521.wav|Looks like the nightmare is only beginning. Come on, let's do what we can. wavs/markus-522.wav|War really is hell, isn't it? What condition are they in? wavs/markus-523.wav|We'll just have to deal with it. Come on, no one's gonna die on my watch. Let's get started. wavs/markus-524.wav|We'll begin treating his injuries as soon as we get a pulse. wavs/markus-525.wav|Alright, we have a pulse. Let's start treating these electrical burns. Prepare for skin transplants. wavs/markus-526.wav|There are still other areas that have turned black. wavs/markus-527.wav|Another burn's gotten worse. wavs/markus-528.wav|Got it. We'll start by treating the external wounds. wavs/markus-529.wav|We're done out here, but there's still damage to the abdomen. We need to open him up and treat him. This is bad. wavs/markus-530.wav|It looks like a rifle round. wavs/markus-531.wav|It only takes a fraction of a second to shoot someone, but it takes us this long to heal him. wavs/markus-532.wav|That'll do it. Let's close him up. wavs/markus-533.wav|Come on, who's the next patient? wavs/markus-534.wav|Is that our backup? Alright, let's finish this operation. wavs/markus-535.wav|I was expecting something worse than this. wavs/markus-536.wav|That's all of the large lacerations. Let's treat what's left. wavs/markus-537.wav|His vitals aren't stabilizing. wavs/markus-538.wav|There must be something else we just haven't found yet. wavs/markus-539.wav|There should be more. wavs/markus-540.wav|There are two more patients, but let's leave them to the backup surgeons. We're done here. wavs/markus-541.wav|This isn't good. His vitals are too low. wavs/markus-542.wav|This is bad. First, we need to retrieve the bone fragments. wavs/markus-543.wav|The spleen is in pretty severe condition. It's rupturing randomly. wavs/markus-544.wav|That doesn't sound good. Let's open her up. wavs/markus-545.wav|The blood's starting to pool. wavs/markus-546.wav|It's a high price to pay for peace. This isn't what we came here to do. wavs/markus-547.wav|You mean getting him to help the Stigma victims? That was, well, kind of spur of the moment. Anyway, I'll leave it to you to make sure he keeps his promise. wavs/markus-548.wav|He has an abdominal injury. Is it his liver? How ironic. First they want to kill him, and now they want us to save him. wavs/markus-549.wav|Hm? You? What the- wavs/markus-550.wav|Kidman's crony. wavs/markus-551.wav|They were probably after the mining rights to the Culurium. wavs/markus-552.wav|Then does that mean this guy over here is Kidman? wavs/markus-553.wav|That won't be possible. He's already dead. Alright, Val. Let's establish priority and begin the first operation. wavs/markus-554.wav|If that's the case, then let's be prepared for it. Elena, get the cross match ready and bring Kidman's body into the room. wavs/markus-555.wav|Their livers are too far gone to be healed. Val, how are the cross-matching results? wavs/markus-556.wav|Then let's split up Kidman's liver between the two of them. wavs/markus-557.wav|I'm afraid we don't have time to debate. Elena asked the other team to extract the donor's liver. We'll perform both transplant operations. wavs/markus-558.wav|Alright, let's begin the operation as soon as the liver's ready. wavs/markus-559.wav|We need to hurry. The patient's vitals are dangerously low. wavs/markus-560.wav|The order in which we should connect the liver is vein, portal vein, artery, and bile duct. wavs/markus-561.wav|The constrictor's effect wore off. We'll have to start over. wavs/markus-562.wav|The constrictor starting to wear off. wavs/markus-563.wav|What? Why is there Stigma here? wavs/markus-564.wav|The portal vein is the yellow tube. wavs/markus-565.wav|This isn't good. wavs/markus-566.wav|If that Cheir came from the donor's liver, wavs/markus-567.wav|Yeah, we have to do this. But let's be ready for anything. wavs/markus-568.wav|We're ready to go. wavs/markus-569.wav|The constrictor's worn off. wavs/markus-570.wav|The constrictor's about to wear off. We should inject some more. wavs/markus-571.wav|What a nightmare. wavs/markus-572.wav|You're right. Bring out the Onyx serum. Pretty ironic that we'd be using it on this guy. wavs/markus-573.wav|The artery is the red blood vessel. wavs/markus-574.wav|I can't believe something like that could happen. wavs/markus-575.wav|Maybe. But then again, maybe not. All I know is that we took the best course of action we could, given the situation. wavs/markus-576.wav|That should put an end to the Kidman family and to the uncertainty of Professor Wilkens' whereabouts as well. wavs/markus-577.wav|We have to get going, but just know that we'll be rooting for you. wavs/markus-578.wav|It would have been nice if we could have learned the whereabouts of Professor Wilkens, but unfortunately, their boss died before we could get any information out of him. wavs/markus-579.wav|which is? wavs/markus-580.wav|Now, about the information you're willing to disclose. wavs/markus-581.wav|She's been part of the underworld her entire life. I'm sure she knows how to cover up her emotions. wavs/markus-582.wav|Blood identified in the stool, she seems to have symptoms of anemia as well, but there's no decrease in her appetite or weight, which doesn't seem to make sense. wavs/markus-583.wav|Let's be on guard and get this done. Beginning the operation. wavs/markus-584.wav|We need to remove the blood vessels before we can excise the tumor. Let's drain the tumor's cytoplasm first. wavs/markus-585.wav|What the? Did the tumor regenerate? We'll have to start the treatment over from the top. wavs/markus-586.wav|Well, we can't stop now. Isn't there anything we can use for a light source? wavs/markus-587.wav|We've removed all the tumors. The operation was a success. wavs/markus-588.wav|That was very thoughtful of you, Madame Devereaux. wavs/markus-589.wav|All right. wavs/markus-590.wav|Let me guess, the private sector pulled their support for research on the drug, right? wavs/markus-591.wav|I know you're worried about Cynthia, Val, but tomorrow's a big day. Make sure you're ready. wavs/markus-592.wav|How many? wavs/markus-593.wav|And without their boss, they're out of control. What a nightmare. wavs/markus-594.wav|Do we know what type of Stigma they're infected with? wavs/markus-595.wav|That only buys us some time. We need to hurry. wavs/markus-596.wav|We don't need to see any more lives taken by Stigma. Start the operation. wavs/markus-597.wav|What a pain. Let's try to keep focused. wavs/markus-598.wav|So he was behind this. wavs/markus-599.wav|I... I think we should give it a shot. For the professor's sake. wavs/markus-600.wav|We'll be performing brain surgery on you, Professor. I'd be lying if I said it was going to be easy, but it's necessary to return you to your normal self. wavs/markus-601.wav|I'm a doctor. And this is my patient. He deserves an explanation. wavs/markus-602.wav|That would be defeating the purpose, Val. Professor, if you know the name of the surgeon who operated on you, can you please tell me? Otherwise, we'll have to make our diagnosis during the operation. wavs/markus-603.wav|Do you despise me, Professor? After all, if I hadn't discovered Stigma, then none of this would have occurred. And you wouldn't be in this condition if only I'd done things differently. wavs/markus-604.wav|Professor? wavs/markus-605.wav|What are you saying? wavs/markus-606.wav|I can't believe that Kidman and his group were capable of creating something like this. wavs/markus-607.wav|That's what I have in mind. wavs/markus-608.wav|We can't make any mistakes. Let's begin the operation. wavs/markus-609.wav|This is almost worse than Stigma. wavs/markus-610.wav|What are these lights on the ends of the plugs? wavs/markus-611.wav|This is going to give me a heart attack. wavs/markus-612.wav|Good, that's all the plugs. wavs/markus-613.wav|We have to put them in while avoiding those moving things? wavs/markus-614.wav|Well, we're in no position to stop right now, but still... wavs/markus-615.wav|I've never done an operation like this. wavs/markus-616.wav|There we go. wavs/markus-617.wav|We'll just have to wait until he regains consciousness and see for ourselves. wavs/markus-618.wav|Professor? wavs/markus-619.wav|I think that's best. wavs/markus-620.wav|It's not for me to say, it's the director's decision. wavs/markus-621.wav|I'm concerned about the professor's condition, but I'll try to make time for it. wavs/markus-622.wav|You know him? wavs/markus-623.wav|So Professor Kerensky is Master Vakhushti. He provided me with advice regarding Elena's transplant operation. That bastard! wavs/markus-624.wav|I'll go, and put an end to this. wavs/markus-625.wav|So then, someone's still researching and refining them. wavs/markus-626.wav|Its completion is drawing near. We don't have much time to lose. wavs/markus-627.wav|There's so much I'd like to ask a master surgeon like yourself, but let's wait until this is all over. wavs/markus-628.wav|All right, Elena, head to the back. wavs/markus-629.wav|I guess they were trying to impress their buyers. Well, if this really is their storehouse, then it should be filled with weapons. At any rate, storming this castle will be no easy task. wavs/markus-630.wav|Do we know what type of substance it is? wavs/markus-631.wav|They even had chemical weapons? wavs/markus-632.wav|They don't know what it is? Is it some new kind of agent? wavs/markus-633.wav|So it's a compound of known agents. wavs/markus-634.wav|Let's use a sedative along with it. If we sedate the affected area first, we can minimize the amount of antidote we use. wavs/markus-635.wav|Then it's up to us to remember it. wavs/markus-636.wav|This will be risky, but we don't have any other choice. Beginning the operation. wavs/markus-637.wav|Are there any signs of inflammation? wavs/markus-638.wav|Does it look like we'll see any more inflammations? wavs/markus-639.wav|More. wavs/markus-640.wav|Okay, let's treat the remaining wounds for now. wavs/markus-641.wav|He should be alright now. Let's start closing him up. wavs/markus-642.wav|Send the data from the operation to the analysis team. wavs/markus-643.wav|I don't hear that many gunshots anymore. The operation must be drawing to a close. wavs/markus-644.wav|Maybe so, but if we back them into a corner, who knows what they might do. wavs/markus-645.wav|They have? wavs/markus-646.wav|I never would have imagined that you were a spy. You were a big help to us at Caduceus, or so I thought. wavs/markus-647.wav|Calm down, Val. If you don't mind, Cynthia, will you tell us about him? wavs/markus-648.wav|Unfortunately, that's a reality for countries in turmoil. wavs/markus-649.wav|There's still hope. What do you say? wavs/markus-650.wav|It's pretty deep inside. Removing it won't be easy. Won't he find out what we're up to during the operation from your vital signs? What if he activates the chip while we're operating? wavs/markus-651.wav|Even though he left you here? wavs/markus-652.wav|We must save Cynthia, no matter what. Let's begin the operation. wavs/markus-653.wav|It's in the atrium. Let's take a look inside. wavs/markus-654.wav|Now's our chance. Scalpel. wavs/markus-655.wav|It keeps rebooting itself. I've never seen a chip like this. wavs/markus-656.wav|Don't start celebrating yet. We're only halfway done. wavs/markus-657.wav|We need to put it back where it was before. wavs/markus-658.wav|Alright, let's close the atrium. wavs/markus-659.wav|You know, it's been our goal all along, to save people's lives and rid the world of illness. wavs/markus-660.wav|Yeah, let's end this once and for all. It's time to confront this Master Vakhusti. Alright, here goes. wavs/markus-661.wav|Vakhusti, where are you? wavs/markus-662.wav|Do you remember Professor Wilkens, Vakhusti? I'm Markus Vaughn, his associate. Does the name ring a bell? wavs/markus-663.wav|You've got it all wrong. I'm not its father. I came here to eradicate it. wavs/markus-664.wav|I knew you weren't normal, but you've completely lost it. wavs/markus-665.wav|You're infected with Stigma? wavs/markus-666.wav|Elena, get the anesthetic. wavs/markus-667.wav|I see edema on his body. The infection must be in the advanced stages. We can't allow this strain of Stigma to leave here. We must confront it to learn the truth. wavs/markus-668.wav|I won't let that happen. wavs/markus-669.wav|How encouraging. wavs/markus-670.wav|I don't regret the decisions I've made. I will eliminate Stigma. wavs/markus-671.wav|That thing on top must be the core. wavs/markus-672.wav|We'll finish it with this. wavs/markus-673.wav|I'm putting an end to this. wavs/markus-674.wav|We're finished. wavs/markus-675.wav|Yeah. wavs/markus-676.wav|Yes, consider it your atonement. wavs/markus-677.wav|You use Stigma to treat a diencephalic disorder? wavs/markus-678.wav|I'm sure you saved countless lives over the years, but that doesn't give you the right to take away even a single life. wavs/markus-679.wav|It's finally over. wavs/markus-680.wav|Not quite. I need to finish this up first. By the way, Val, I'll be out the day after tomorrow. I'm going to see Professor Wilkens. wavs/markus-681.wav|No, not at all. wavs/markus-682.wav|Alright you two, let's go get some fresh air. wavs/markus-683.wav|Do you have any regrets, Elena? You know, if you hadn't followed me to Alaska, you wouldn't have had to go through the whole ordeal. wavs/markus-684.wav|Stigma is gone, but who knows what's in store for us next. wavs/markus-685.wav|I feel the same way. I'll be counting on you. wavs/markus-686.wav|Doctor Stiles, what's up? wavs/markus-687.wav|Someone's already created VR sims from our operations? wavs/markus-688.wav|and they won't have to be completely uninformed about it either. wavs/markus-689.wav|Okay, beginning the op... uh... simulation. wavs/markus-690.wav|Is that Onyx? Wait, no, it isn't. What is this? wavs/markus-691.wav|Don't tell me. Is this... GUILT? wavs/markus-692.wav|This one's GUILT as well. wavs/markus-693.wav|Deftera and Soma? You put GUILT and Stigma together in one operation? wavs/markus-694.wav|So it is Kyriaki. wavs/markus-695.wav|What are these? wavs/markus-696.wav|Imagine an operation, a patient's on the table in front of me. Now tense my index finger, and then I tense my index finger on my other hand. No, I can't loosen up. wavs/markus-697.wav|Imagine a star, and follow the shape. Okay, one more time. Remember how it felt. wavs/markus-698.wav|Alright, this is it. One more time. No, I need to be faster and more accurate. Fast and accurate. One more time. I can't let myself collapse during an operation again. wavs/markus-699.wav|One more time. wavs/markus-700.wav|Hmm? I thought someone was watching me. I guess it was just my imagination. wavs/markus-701.wav|Beginning the operation. wavs/markus-702.wav|Let's begin. We have to do this. wavs/markus-703.wav|We're done here. wavs/markus-704.wav|We did it. wavs/markus-705.wav|We don't have much time. Hurry! wavs/markus-706.wav|The patient's vitals. wavs/markus-707.wav|Vitals are red. We gotta do something. wavs/markus-708.wav|The Vitals, careful. wavs/markus-709.wav|Wait, no! That's not it! wavs/markus-710.wav|Do it now! wavs/markus-711.wav|Got it. Keep going. wavs/markus-712.wav|We're done. wavs/markus-713.wav|Finished. wavs/markus-714.wav|It's working! wavs/markus-715.wav|Stigma is gone. wavs/markus-716.wav|Get out of here! wavs/markus-717.wav|First one's done. wavs/markus-718.wav|Second one's done. wavs/markus-719.wav|Third one's done. One more to go. wavs/markus-720.wav|Hey, what's wrong? Listen to me. wavs/markus-721.wav|Not bad. wavs/markus-722.wav|Good. wavs/markus-723.wav|What? This can't be! wavs/markus-724.wav|What? No! wavs/markus-725.wav|Here's the antibiotic gel. wavs/markus-726.wav|Here's the syringe. wavs/markus-727.wav|Here's the suture. wavs/markus-728.wav|Here's the drain. wavs/markus-729.wav|Here's the laser. wavs/markus-730.wav|Here's the ultrasound. wavs/markus-731.wav|Here's the magnification tool. wavs/markus-732.wav|Here's the scalpel. wavs/markus-733.wav|Here are the forceps. wavs/markus-734.wav|Here's the bandage. wavs/markus-735.wav|Use the defibrillator. wavs/markus-736.wav|Massage the heart. wavs/markus-737.wav|We don't have any antibiotic gel. wavs/markus-738.wav|We're out of syringes. wavs/markus-739.wav|We don't have any thread. wavs/markus-740.wav|The drain can't be used. wavs/markus-741.wav|The laser's charging. wavs/markus-742.wav|The ultrasound can't be used. wavs/markus-743.wav|The magnification tool can't be used. wavs/markus-744.wav|The scalpel can't be used. wavs/markus-745.wav|The forceps can't be used. wavs/markus-746.wav|Treat the blood pool. wavs/markus-747.wav|Treat the pus. wavs/markus-748.wav|Suture the laceration wavs/markus-749.wav|Treat the tumor. wavs/markus-750.wav|Treat the remaining wounds. wavs/markus-751.wav|Gotta treat that blood pool. wavs/markus-752.wav|All that blood's gonna get in the way. Let's treat that first. wavs/markus-753.wav|Okay, let's treat the pus first. wavs/markus-754.wav|The pus is getting in the way. We should treat that first. wavs/markus-755.wav|We need to treat the remaining wounds. wavs/markus-756.wav|Concentrate. wavs/markus-757.wav|Not yet.
