TOKYO MER: Mobile Emergency Room (TOKYO MER 〜走る緊急救命室〜)

TOKYO MER is a medical organisation under direct control of the Governor of Tokyo.

They have only one mission.

Watch out!

They must do all they can to prevent death.

Stop making excuses! You're a doctor, aren't you?

If so, do everything you can to save lives.

I have no choice!

You've done well. I'll take over from here.

If I'd carried on, it would have been a total medical error.

I'm not cut out for MER.

I'm glad you were there. Thank you.

Hurry, Mum!

Okay!

Hurry!

I'm going as fast as I can!

Whoa...

Woo hoo! Give me your helmet.

I'll be picking you up today.

I'm fine with Grandma.

Don't worry. I'll be done with work by the evening. I promise.

Really?

I promise! Go on then.

See you!

Ms Kuramae,

may I have a word?

Good morning, Masumi.

Good morning.

This is really difficult for me to say,

but some of the other parents have said they want Momoka to stop coming.

Is that because,

I'm a healthcare worker?

Some other children are susceptible to things like infectious diseases.

Um, how is Momoka doing in class?

She's doing well.

But some children avoid her.

The things parents say get passed on to their children.

If people start to complain even more,

I may have to speak with you again.

What the hell?! That's the last straw!

How long will this discrimination against healthcare workers continue?

People in my neighbourhood would look at me coldly,

and I lived away from my family for a time.

I live alone, so I basically don't have any problems.

Traitor!

I didn't betray anyone!

Well, we have to try to ignore it.

But we're working really hard!

Oh! It's good you're getting fired up, Dr. Hina!

I'm not really...

Chief, are you really working out over there?

Relay from the Tokyo Metropolitan Crisis Management Office.

Hostage situation at a restaurant in Arakawa Ward, Arakawa District 9.

Requesting a small-scale medical dispatch team

It appears several customers and staff in the restaurant have been cut with a knife.

The extent of the injuries is unclear, but it's a small-scale incident.

Requesting TOKYO MER dispatch.

MER copies that. Dispatching now.

Kitami has a one-year blank.

There's something going on there, isn't there?

Yes, judging from Dr. Takanawa's reaction, I'd say they're hiding something big.

But Kitami's ex-wife isn't talking, is she?

I'll look for people at the international medical organisations where Kitami worked.

A dispatch, Dr. Otowa?

A hostage situation. People are injured.

A hostage situation?

The police department's reputation is everything to them.

It's completely different from the Fire Department that's been working with MER.

There's no doubt that if they clash at a frenzied scene,

it'll get messy.

This could be our chance to crush MER, Otowa.

Yes, sir.

Do you still not know the number of wounded?

The police department is in charge, we're not getting any information!

Where's the emergency helicopter?

It can't get close without police authorisation.

Close or not, just connect us!

Putting up the helicopter video.

This is larger than reported.

This is Kitami from MER. What's the situation like?

We're currently gathering detailed information.

This is Komaba. We can currently make out over 10 casualties by sight alone.

Several people with serious injuries can be seen. Hurry!

MER, copy that.

Prioritise the seriously injured. Provide shield protection and evacuate.

Stop, stop! Healthcare workers can't enter.

Why not?

The suspect is holding up in the restaurant opposite.

We're told he has a gun. Approaching would be dangerous.

Stand by until we've got them out to a safe area. Okay?

Dr Hina and Natsume,

Carry the patients outside the fences to the ambulances,

starting with those bleeding the worst.

-Okay. -Okay.

Minh, disinfect and dress patients with minor injuries.

Okay.

Dr. Fuyuki, Tokumaru, get ready to operate. Prepare forceps.

-Yes, sir. -Yes, sir.

What will you do?

I'll do triage.

Stop, stop!

-Excuse me, coming through! -Stop, stop!

-Excuse me, please. -Wait.

I'm Dr. Kitami. Do you understand me? Let me take a look.

I'm Dr. Kitami. You're going to be okay.

Please show me your wound.

It looks okay. We'll get fixed up nicely at the hospital.

I'm Dr. Kitami. Are you conscious?

Let me just check your wound.

What are you doing?!

Triage.

The suspect is still held up in the restaurant. Stay back!

Rescuing the injured is top priority.

Who the hell are you?

Kitami from MER. Please take him.

Hello. Are you conscious?

The Governor's vanity project? Take your grandstanding elsewhere!

Kitami to MER. One patient for emergency operation.

Female in her 30's. Stab wound in the left upper quadrant.

Possible pulsatile haemorrhaging in the abdominal cavity.

She's in haemorrhagic shock.

Dr. Fuyuki, prepare six units of O positive red concentrate.

Tokumaru, we'll be doing a rapid blood transfusion. Prepare level one.

Hey!

Dr. Hina and crew, bring her to the ER car once you get her from the rescue crew.

Are you even listening?!

We need to transport this woman.

I'm lifting you now, okay?

Evacuate! Everyone away from the restaurant!

Hand over that woman! The one in the uniform!

Let's go!

Wait!

I told you to hand her over!

Get down!

Dr. Fuyuki, administer general anaesthetic and open the abdomen right away.

Secure an 18-gauge line from the right for blood transfusion.

And she's in shock, so insert an A-line.

-Understood. -Tokumaru, prepare the monitors.

-Let's do level-one priming. -Okay.

-Minh, attach all monitors. -Okay.

-Dr Hina, please stand by. -Okay.

Bastard! You got a death wish?!

Sorry, but I'm busy.

You're disturbing the operation. Please leave.

What's that? We're putting our lives on the line, so shut it!

It's her life on the line. Now get out, please.

The omental arteries and veins are cut and bleeding in three places.

-Blood pressure? -64 over 40.

-I can't measure saturation. -Natsume...

-Pean and 3-0 silk thread, right? -Correct. The cooper, too.

-Okay. -Pean.

-Here. -Ligation please, Dr. Hina.

-Okay. -3-0 silk thread, please.

Here.

Hey.

Tell this to your colleagues.

Don't carry off important witnesses without permission.

They aren't my colleagues.

Deal with them how you like. It's your chance.

Ms. Shibuya, can you hear me?

Himawari...

Ms. Shibuya, I'm Dr. Kitami.

You're going to be fine.

Where's Himawari?

My daughter... please save her.

Don't move, the wound will open.

Please relax.

My daughter... is inside.

Inside?

Natsume, call that policeman from before.

Okay.

It's okay Ms. Shibuya. First, just calm down.

Hold on!

I'm Arai from the police department.

The suspect's asking for you. Do you know him?

He's my ex-husband.

He was extremely violent. I took my daughter and ran away.

But... he followed us.

Good girl.

Oi! Kaori!

Himawari, come here.

-Is Kaori here? Kaori! -Hide back here.

-Keep quiet. -You again? Stay away from Kaori.

Get lost, stalker!

Ah!

-You bastard! -Stop! Stop!

Kaori! Where's Himawari? Let's die together, as one happy family.

Stop it! Leave Kaori alone!

Shut the hell up!

No! Please stop!

I don't care what happens to me anymore!

Himawari! Save her...

Himawari! Himawari!

Your daughter's still in there?

Please save her. I'm begging you.

-Ms Shibuya? -Ms Shibuya?

Ms Shibuya?

Ms Shibuya?

Kitami, right? Come with me.

Look after her.

Don't transport her yet.
