Charité

Ella Wendt - Prof Dr.Otto Prokop.

Dr.Ingeborg Rapoport.

A glass of wine, a few profound compliments,

the lady is delighted, the flesh is weak.

In short, it comes to extremes.

Now I ask the ladies present not to listen for a minute.

If you, gentlemen, don't have your central organ under control,

you have to face the consequences.

In the future, this institute will ensure

that no one can evade his fatherly duties anymore.

Iron Lungs

Attention!

West-Berlin

6th August, 1961, A week before the wall is built

The fruit grows in the womb,

young life wants with all its might to light,

and whenever there is a dispute

who is the producer of the cute little Tschopperl,

we are asked for forensic medicine Serologists.

Fatherless children are a time bomb.

Think of Oedipus, Willy Brandt.

Internal Medicine

Oh. -Do you need help? Are you okay?

Just a second.

There is an elevator.

Oh. Ten horses won't get me in there. I was buried in the war.

Do you have pain? In the belly? - Just ate something wrong.

Come with me. - Yes, you are in luck.

A few months ago I was a lot heavier.

Is the pain burning, stabbing, or dull?

Dull, very dull.

Don't you move from that spot. Okay?

Someone will be coming soon.

What nonsense the world could have been spared

when one of the absent fathers

could have proven her paternity.

With a paternity test.

You want to draw blood from every person?

Who was that?

Oh, this is clear! The demigod from surgery.

Oh, Mr.Schmitz, did that have to be?

Sorry, there is a patient sitting there who is about to faint

and...and great weight loss, someone needs to take a look.

And you are? - Oh, Ella Wendt from Senftenberg.

I started here. - Oh, great.

Could you hold?

Mr.Schmitz is paralyzed.

Understood. - Thank you, sister.

I wanted to go to Prof.Prokop's lecture.

Yes, many want to go there.

It's been running for over 10 minutes.

Science is incorruptible.

May beat times like these

the only reliable constant.

The only problem with blood groups and serums is:

You have to be able to read them.

For forensic validity

Haptoglobins particularly are valuable.

Hello?

Hello?

My son cannot move. - First he was dizzy, then a fever. His legs bent away.

He's burning up. Come with me.

Someone will be here soon. Don't you worry.

Of course it didn't all grow out of my jargon,

yes, we think so.

Who helped countless colleagues achieve a breakthrough.

Who collected their writings

systematized and, above all, published it.

That's correct. Prof Dr.Otto Prokop.

Dr.Rapoport. We have an emergency, come quickly.

Come on. - Thanks.

Be careful. Very slowly.

Institute of Forensic Medicine, Humboldt University

Berlin, Hannoversche Street 6

Wittenberg, we'll see you soon.

Corpses don't have a Sunday.

I'll be with you in a moment.

We have a dead person from the Criminal Investigation department.

Wait!

Blood group characteristics?

No, parentage assessment.

Well, attention on the A/B/0 factors. Statistical probabilities...

Hemogenetic features.

The latest state of Haptoglobin detection after Electrophoresis.

And you are?

Ella Wendt, Internist.

You are wrong. - No, no, I'm right.

Spot on.

Could you try pressing your head against my hand?

He couldn't get up this morning.

At first I thought he didn't want to go to school.

Mmm. - What school does he go to?

At Wilmersdorf. - In West Berlin.

Then why aren't you at Sankt Gertrauden?

The child was born here.

This is our hospital.

Does he have the summer flu?

Can you try to hold your leg like this?

Do it, Werner. Actively, huh?

This won't hurt.

Asymmetrical, flaccid paralysis.

We have an excellent biochemist in-house.

Prof.Rapoport, my husband. He will do a few tests.

And sister Arianna will draw blood from you.

Hm.

It's not that bad.

Are you still washing them? - We don't have any new ones.

I will give you mine. I still have some.

Here. Throw them away after use.

Take him to the isolation room.

Hey big guy. - Father.

Yes, everything will be fine. You will go home soon.

I promise.

Nurse Erika, the patient is getting new saline solution.

Yes, Head Nurse Gerda.

Lord!

Come on.

First lie down. Give me the bag.

Oh, you are burning up. Do you have an infection?

No. I don't think so.

When would the doctor finally come?

I'll go have a look.

We're doing our best, yeah?

Sister Erika, look after the patient!

Look here. Don't they look good?

Where can you get that? - Stockings made from the finest Chinchilla.

Ladder-free, from KaDeWe.

I would like those too. - Hm. Hm?

I saved it for two months.

In the perfumery they have a lipstick

that doesn't come off when kissing.

What? Nothing to do, ladies?

Yes, Head Nurse Gerda. Nothing else to do. - Go cut the big bandage.

And the bulb in the toilet is broken.

And these have to be refilled!

Excuse me?

I'm looking for my suitcase. - That one, I suppose?

Hopefully your weakness is not vomiting.

Oh. Yes, I'll see you tomorrow morning.

I'm afraid I need you right now.

I thought they sent you to Senftenberg...

Alex!

Ordered back to maintain basic services.

Picture something like that. They don't take everyone.

They took you.

You know each other? - Yes, we do. We studied together.

Patient in Room 9 has a headache, Dr.Nowack.

And 3 is waiting for a doctor as well.

You can come with me, yes? Come on.

When will you go to KaDeWe next?

Contradicting is pointless.

Look at that!

It's not even Monday, and the weekly schedule is done for!

She's gone too.

It's not just the doctors running off in hordes.

Everyone's off to the golden West.

What do they think they will find there? There isn't even any boiling water.

The syringes are not sterile.

Do it yourself. - That was Luise's job.

Service

Monday

Tuesday

Wednesday

Early duty

Yes, but Luise is no longer here.

I need saline on the 2 and add 1 gram of Analgin.

Ah, Dr.Wendt I assume? - Yes.

Senkbeil, Senior physician. - Pleased to...

Yes, I'm very pleased as well.

So who's on shift with me now?

No one, Dr.Scabbard. Here are the patient files for the rounds.

Yes, well, come with me then. - But...

Yes, someone has to come with me on rounds, right?

How did you come across me?

Recommendation.

Did my senior doctor recommend me?

No. He recommended all of your colleagues to me.

But not you, it was clear that you were the best.

Thank you, I hope I can do my research here...

You have been transferred here to maintain medical care at the Charité.

Can I rely on you for this?

Nevertheless, I had hoped that Prof.Prokop...

The very esteemed colleague Prokopis is at presentations at Charité.

But the quality of care is decided here.

At the ward.

You coming? - Yes.

He was found on the Potsdam Railway embankment.

It looks like an unnatural cause of death,

namely, murder by strangulation.

No papers, no money. The motive is clear: Murder.

We have a suspect, a 19 year old from Rathenow.

Already convicted for minor stolen goods.

He had the dead man's money and papers with him.

Yes, a clear strangulation sign.

We just need your report,

and the man goes under lock and key.

Well, then let's see what law and order comes at it's own.

A person like this is a little wonder box after death.
