The Hippocratic Crush II- On Call 36小時 II

Police! Call the Police!

Yeung-yeung and Huen-huen are tired,

so we went home.

Don't bother to run around.

We'll see you at home.

Honey, is Mom alright?

You knew?

Matron To got Siu-yik's message.

You wanted to hide it from me?

Yu wanted to hurry over to the hospital,

but A&E said Sis Siu was fine,

so we decided to wait here for you.

Mom tripped and fell. She has to stay overnight for observation.

I'll pick her up tomorrow.

You need not visit her.

We had a long day today,

Matron To and I have made dinner.

Let's come over and eat.

Great!

Dinner is ready. Go wash your hands.

Let's eat!

Yat-hong! You're here!

I've been waiting for you. Let's play ball!

No, I'm tired.

Of course you are! You're too uptight!

You can't go on like this much longer.

I'm fine.

Who are you kidding?

Just now when you couldn't find Yu,

you didn't try to call her.

You wanted to call the Police!

You're so tense

you couldn't think logically.

I didn't mean to.

Since your patient was paralysed,

you started to doubt yourself.

Yu is undergoing electrotherapy

and now you had to worry about Mom too.

If this goes on,

I'm afraid you'll be the first to crash.

Keep this to yourself, Yat-hong.

Promise me you won't tell anyone, OK?

I know you came to cheer me up,

but until I find out if I've passed,

I won't be in the mood. I'm sorry.

Don't be sorry!

We can do something else if you don't want high tea.

There are countless possibilities...

That's right, life is full of surprises!

Onion!

Yeah!

Here...drink some water.

Let me lift the heavy stuff for you, Miss Sze.

Take it easy, it's heavy.

Miss Sze is Yu and Mei-suet's Mom?

And you own such a big dance studio?

All 3 of you are so amazing!

You're not scared of me because of Mei-suet?

You're too nice!

Because Sis Siu introduced us to Miss Sze,

we found these brilliant dancers.

Miss Sze always lets us practise in her studio,

we must do our share to help.

You bet!

Ting, in addition to getting you to dance,

we also want you to talk to Chak.

Their experience can enlighten you.

We used to be delinquents,

going in and out of correctional institutions.

But they're all nice kids now.

You keep your noses clean, right?

Of course!

People used to have us pinned.

They thought we're stuck with the jail.

Luckily dancing gave us a Take 2,

helped point us in the right direction

and gave us strength to start over.

See? They have the guts to start over.

You can too.

Onion and Che-che arranged the dance for you

They want to tell you

with enough confidence and courage,

you can overcome your psychological barrier.

If you can dance in public,

you won't be scared of anything.

Go ahead and do the things you don't think you can do,

tell those who look down on you

you're capable of anything.

If we can do it, you can do it.

We'll be rooting for you.

Prepare the patient for cerebellar tumour excision.

Yes, Dr Hung! We'll get ready.

Dr Hung, who's being operated on?

Is it Ngok Ho-biu?

I've spoken to Yat-kin. Any problems?

Surgery already?

He's not experiencing double vision anymore,

and we're not sure about the shadow in his brain.

Let's observe him for a few more days.

Why are you dragging your feet?

You know the cerebellum is close to the brain stem.

The brain stem controls breathing and the heart.

If the tumour gets bigger and presses down on the brain stem,

the patient can die from suffocation.

Can you be held responsible?

If anything happens during the operation,

his brain functions can be damaged.

If there's bleeding after surgery,

the patient will become a vegetable.

Craniotomy is a high risk operation.

It's an excellent learning experience for a houseman.

Come inside with us.

Go with you?

Yes! You have a problem?

Dr Hung, the patient is ready.

OK, let's go!

Dr Hung, you can't operate on Ngok Ho-biu.

You can't do it!

Give me a reason.

Because you gave the wrong diagnosis.

Speak up! I can't hear you.

You gave the wrong diagnosis.

It's possible Ngok Ho-biu is lying about not taking any medication.

The pills I saw in his drawer are for high cholesterol.

The pills may have caused myositis,

that's why his legs are weak and he has double vision.

It may have nothing to do with his cerebellum.

Why didn't you tell me before?

Because I'm scared of you...

I dare not tell you.

Fine! We won't operate on Ngok Ho-biu.

But we're operating on the patient at Bed No 4, not Ngok Ho-biu.

Eat something.

Thanks.

I don't understand Mei-suet.

If she doesn't think you make the cut,

why did she want to scare you with Ngok Ho-biu's case?

Mei-suet is all bark and no bite.

Maybe she took Chatter's word

and wanted to check on your progress.

Don't worry. She's just testing you again.

I caught something wrong but didn't speak up

I'm sure she's mad at me.

She's too keen to see you make it.

Why else would she have cornered you

and forced you to speak up for the sake of the patient's safety?

She knew about the pills in Ngok Ho-biu's drawer?

She tested them and had a full MRI report to prove the CT scan had an artifact.

The shadow in the brain was an error in imaging.

She has also made several inquiries,

and found out Ngok Ho-biu is a long time smoker

and has high cholesterol.

His wife has made him go see a doctor and take medication.

He's a henpecked husband.

He refused to admit he's taking any pills.

Mei-suet is truly amazing.

If you respect her, you should do better.

Don't be scared of your own shadow.

You'll only piss her off

and end up getting me in trouble.

Master Lam!

I have discussed with Yat-kin.

You'll both get your wish and transfer to Cardiothoracic.

Yes! Thank you, Master Lam!

Did I hear you right? I can be transferred too?

Yes, you passed!

Thank you so much!

You should thank Mei-suet.

Only Mei-suet can think of such a way

to force Ting to show her true colours.

She did all the hard work.

Thanks, Mei-suet!

But I want to stay in Neurosurgery.

Are you mad?

No, I really want to stay.

For what reason?

I know I'm not doing so well.

I want to stay and learn to do better.

I won't go easy on you if you stay.

You're now my mentor. I'm not scared.

Looking at them reminds me of when Mei-suet first started.

Even Mei-suet has a protege,

we must admit we're getting old.

Morning!

Morning, Mom!

What happened overnight? Why is the flat so spotless?

And smells good too!

That's right!

Morning! Morning!

Morning!

Eat this while it's hot!

The flat is spotless because I did spring cleaning.

You're up all night?

Really?

I couldn't go back to sleep after I woke up.

I didn't want Mom to start cleaning again.

Remember to let me do the work when I come home.

No more volunteer work at the hospital?

No more housework?

So I sit around the flat all day and be a loafer?
