You've gotta love New Year's Eve. What?

Hey!

Makes me feel old just watching 'em.

Yeah. I think my days of coming to fundraisers are numbered.

I was surprised to see you here

after the disappearing act you pulled the other week.

I had leave owing to me. What?

I had leave owing to me.

A bit of notice might've been nice.

We're coming up to New Year's Eve.

What was so bloody urgent, anyway?

ARE YOU READY?

CHEERING

Oh, here we go...

Ten, nine, eight, seven,

six, five, four,

three, two, one...

..Happy New Year!

CHEERING AND WHISTLING

Excuse me. What do you think you're doing to my sister?

What?

Right, that's me done.

Sayonara, Sullivan.

Happy New Year.

Oh!

Alright. Let's kick in the new year with some funky tunes.

DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

Well, Happy... New Year. Hmm!

Same to you. Again.

And gosh, it's fun to be working.

You volunteered.

Yeah. Why is that?

Because somebody has to do the shift.

Well, it's, uh, much quieter than I expected.

Where's the legendary emergency mayhem?

Calm before the storm.

Last year's New Year's Eve admissions -

36 patients admitted, two-thirds of them under the age of 45.

Party drugs and alcohol.

Mostly GBH. Uh, three ODs, 14 fractures.

There you go. Something to look forward to.

Look, I don't know if my pregnant legs

can hold up to those stats, Nelson.

You'll be okay, mate. Hey.

Ah, here we go.

Don't leave me, mate.

He's fitting! Okay, I'll get the trolley, and...?

Diazepam, with a cannula, thanks, Von.

Hey. We need oxygen and suction. He'll need to go into Resus.

Yeah. We just transferred the MVA to theatre.

We've got this.

Wake up. Wake up.

You haven't returned my calls.

Well, I didn't want to talk to you.

But I do now.

DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

Hey. Two gin and tonics, please.

So what's your new year's resolution, Jess?

Doesn't matter now.

What is so bloody mesmerising about him?

What?

I said surgeons suck!

Do you think there's something wrong with me?

Oh! Oh, God! There is now.

Dude! Sorry, sorry.

Hey. I'm off my face, mate. Sorry.

DANCE MUSIC CONTINUES

Cate.

How was Bali? Hot.

So, we've got a few things to sort out.

Like what?

You're here with your fiancee, so nothing's changed, obviously,

despite all the crap you were on about before Christmas.

The tablets that we found on him were ecstasy.

Okay. I'd say we're looking at ecstasy-induced hyponatraemia.

Let's start him on 3% Normal Saline at 80ml over an hour

and a stat dose of Frusemide, 40mg IV.

Let's hope the 'friend' who dumped him fares better than this one has.

I'll organise that head CT.

MACHINE BEEPS STEADILY

Terri... has she been okay?

Yeah, looks fine.

You know what I mean.

Well, why don't I give you the same answer I've given you

the last 10 times you've asked - none of our business.

Terri, yell at me or, you know,

hit me if it'll make you feel better.

As long as you feel something... I don't wanna yell at you, Jack.

Alright? We weren't together when this happened with Charlotte.

Okay. Well, if you understand that, then why can't we salvage this?

Because I don't know what 'this' is.

Okay, look. You have other responsibilities, alright?

No, this is... Let me finish, okay?

I care about you, Jack, but that's not enough.

And you need to concentrate on being a dad.

Because that's where your future lies.

It's not with me.

DANCE MUSIC PLAYS

Maybe we should get another drink?

If that's what you want.

What do YOU want?

Thanks for that.

You want a vodka and lime?

Hello, gorgeous.

Go away, Dan. Okay.

I'll take another ABG from Paul.

He's waking up, getting aggro,

so I'd stay out of the cubicle till he's calmed down.

Hey. It's a good idea.

I will. Thanks.

PAUL RANTS IN BACKGROUND

Charlotte.

Von said you've told everyone the big news.

I've been fielding questions from everyone ever since.

I've only told them all they need to know.

Well, it's no-one else's business but yours.

I've picked up the phone 10 times in the last few weeks

and every time I try to dial your number, I freeze.

How many weeks are you?

13.

You must hate me.

I don't hate you.

I'm jealous.

I'm sorry, Terri.

Great. Jack!

PFOFF for you to suture.

What does that mean?

Pissed. Fell Over Face First.

TECHNO MUSIC PLAYS

So, how you doing tonight?

You having a good time?

It's a great party.

His name's Dan. I heard that cow he's with talking to him.

They're probably together.

No way. Yep.

Yeah, and his genital warts have almost cleared up,

so that's a good thing, isn't it?

PLASTER CRACKS

CREAKING

Shit.

Hey, get out! Get out, get out! The balcony's coming down.

Hey! Get out! Get out. The balcony's coming down.

Get out! The balcony's coming down!

Vincent, get outta here. Get out now!

What? The balcony's collapsing. Get out!

Get off the balcony! CREAKING

Get off the balcony!

LOUD CRASH, SCREAMS

SCREAMING

ALARM RINGS

Everybody, stay calm. Don't panic.

EXCITED HUBBUB

Quick. Give me your hand.

PANICKED SHOUTING

One at a time! Slow down!

Are you alright? Hey!

You alright? Go through. Follow me through, okay?

Stick with me.

Here. Give me your hand.

Come on.

I'm stuck.

Hey, what do you think you're doing?

Don't panic! Just slow down!

Tammy? (Coughs)

Where are you, Tammy?

Come on, let go. That's it.

Calm down. Calm down, okay.

You just need to calm down. Shh, shh.

Slow down! Stop panicking!

Jess? Mac! Yeah, it's me.

Gill, here. Give me your hand.

You've got her? I've got her.

Have you seen the others? No.

See if you can find Dan. He got stuck underneath the balcony.

Nigel?

It's alright. Come on, let's get out of here.

SIREN WAILS IN DISTANCE

Vincent!

Have you seen Cate?

No, I don't know, mate. She must have got out.

Stop, I need to get through here! There's a woman trapped underneath.

Hey, It's okay. I'll give you a hand.

Help us! Get us down!

Hold on. Hold on. Stay back. Wait until it's stable.

Stay back!

They have declared a major incident at The Edge nightclub.

I was just there.

Well, the balcony collapsed.

They're estimating up to 100 casualties.

I've told the supervisor we can accept 25 from CDA and any walk-ins.

We're officially in disaster mode, so I'm calling in staff.

I'll make the calls.

Alright. Can you try Vincent, Jessica and Dan?

I'll call AHS Control, see what type of patients to expect.

I'll check supplies. Especially morphine, Von.

We need to review the patients

and move as many as possible to home or wards.

Okay. Dan, it's Terri.
