Here is a pen.
In this world,
there are cheap pens you can buy with 50 yen...
as well as expensive pens worth over 500,000 yen.
An expensive pen may last a long time,
accompanying one through life.
Some think that any pen will do as long as it can write.
But there are some who are very particular about pens.
For instance, this doctor.
Stretcher is coming through. - An.
Ready to move. One, two, three.
Prepare an oxygen mask and drip.
Yes. - An.
Getting the drip. - Preparing the oxygen mask.
An.
An.
Igarashi.
Please get a CT scan for her head.
What? - An.
An. - What's the situation?
She fell from the escalator. I think it's a head concussion.
Step aside.
Amakasu. - Dr. Amakasu.
Do a CT scan right now. - Okay.
Igarashi, please get ready.
All right.
We're starting the scan. - All right.
How is it?
From the scan, there aren't any anomalies in her brain.
But there might be injuries unseen to the eye.
As a precaution, we should monitor her for a few days.
It's probably a mild head concussion.
Thank goodness.
Everything seems to be fine.
Don't worry.
I'm sorry for causing trouble.
Are you okay?
Let me see.
Your shoulder seems to be injured.
Get some rest today.
We'll do the test tomorrow morning.
Okay.
Morning. - Good morning.
Morning. - Good morning.
I heard something happened yesterday.
Is Dr. Amakasu okay?
No anomaly was found in her brain. There's no need to worry.
That's good.
That's right.
I heard from the nurses.
Apparently, Anno Shoji will be here for a secret stay.
Anno Shoji? Sounds kind of familiar.
He is a politician. A really powerful one.
He has been on the news a lot for the past two days.
For illegal political funding or something.
I read about it on the Internet.
Why is he coming here for treatment?
Normally, politicians would go...
to a more famous university hospital for treatments, right?
That's true.
Good morning. - Good morning.
Congressman Anno will be coming to our hospital?
Yes.
Isn't he being treated at Ryoyo Medical University Hospital...
by you, Professor Tsujimura?
He asked us to let him stay out of sight for a week.
If you do a good job,
I will recommend you for a good position...
at a suitable hospital.
I believe...
it's a waste for a great doctor like you...
to go unnoticed by the public.
"Great doctor"?
What's your decision?
Please leave it to me.
I will make sure Congressman Anno is looked after well.
My son works there.
I'd like him to be his doctor.
Yes, Dr. Tsujimura, right?
That will not be a problem.
I'll leave it to you then.
Sure thing.
Be extra careful with the press.
Understood.
Mr. Anno, we're very glad to have you.
I've never heard of this hospital before.
Is it reliable?
This is a private hospital, right?
I think this place is perfect to lay low for a while.
We've prepared a special room for you.
Where is the security?
Everything is in order, Professor Tsujimura.
All right. - Yes.
By the way, I haven't seen my son.
I told him when to expect us.
That was a nice shot.
How about a game of golf next time?
I'll be looking forward to it.
Come this way, please. - Okay.
This way.
I need to run a test. - Okay.
Thank you for waiting. This way, please.
Okay, thanks.
It looks like Igarashi has rendered another great merit.
He is very outstanding.
Not only as a technician,
but also a doctor.
I...
set a condition when I hired him.
If he does medical treatment that can only be carried out by a doctor,
he has to work here as a radiologist.
Why are you...
What's the matter?
It's nothing.
Please.
Is this what you call a special room?
It's not any different from Ryoyo's single person ward.
Well then, let me go through today's tests...
with you. - Forget about the tests.
It's too exhausting.
But you came here in order to undergo tests.
You can just make something up about that.
I came here in order to relax.
Please do as he says.
Understood.
Bankart lesion.
A shoulder dislocation then.
What's the situation?
A simple treatment...
should be sufficient for the dislocation.
We'll keep monitoring her.
I see.
I think...
we should conduct a physical stress test besides an MRI.
What?
If the joint instability is severe, she'll need corrective surgery.
I know that without you telling me.
So?
The MRI is more than enough.
But based on this one image...
She's still in the acute phase.
Checking for stability issues...
after the initial observation is enough.
As a technician, you don't get to decide.
The one responsible for the patient is us,
the doctors.
We're different from technicians who are done after running tests.
She is...
my patient.
Dad.
It has been a while.
Why weren't you here to welcome the guest?
My apologies. I was busy with patients.
I named you as the doctor in charge. Did you not get my intention?
Getting involved with Congressman Anno...
will be beneficial to your future.
I'm sure you don't want to be in such a hospital forever.
I get it. - Don't let me down.
"Forget about the tests"?
Yes, this is what the patient wants.
He'd like to spend his time in the hospital peacefully.
What?
I was going to brag about how I shot images...
for a big shot politician.
I got nervous for nothing.
However, coming to undergo tests, but not receiving any...
Definitely seems fishy.
Don't ask things you shouldn't be asking.
Mind your own business.
It's clear now.
Yes.
He is pretending to be hospitalized.
He is planning to stay low until things blow over.
Can we allow that?
Questioning a doctor's decision is futile.
Hey, don't let it get to you.
Isn't it a good thing we have one thing less to do?
All right.
Can I help you?
Well...
This... - You...
only need to do your job as a technician.
But I need to confirm something.
Does it hurt?
Not right now.
You're still using that pen.
This?
It still works after changing the refill.
I didn't manage...
to get into Ryoyo Medical University.
But...
I got into Touwa Medical University.
Sorry, I let you down.
Shuntaro.
A present for getting into college.
Now that you're a medical student,
people will know you as my son.
From now on,
use things that befits your identity.
Thank you.
