Code Black (2015–2018): Season 2, Episode 15 - The Devil's Workshop - full transcript
A viral outbreak jeopardizes the doctors and patients of Angel's Memorial.
Previously on "Code Black"...
Is he gonna die?!
Do you want it straight?
Or do you want doctor talk?
I want it straight.
- What's your name?
- Ariel.
- I'm sorry.
- What?
- We couldn't save your father.
- Shut up! Shut up!
[Sobbing]
You can come closer if you want.
- Can you hear it?
- Yeah.
I hear you, Daddy. I hear you.
Dr. Rorish? Do you remember me?
Ariel?
Can I talk to you alone for a second?
[Indistinct conversations]
So you still haven't found the aunt?
Not yet. She's either dead,
or she doesn't wanna be found.
- Thank you.
- [Door closes]
Ariel has had a lot of
trouble the past two years.
Two stints in juvie,
a group home, two foster families.
You didn't know?
Well, I sent her a couple
e-mails to see how she was,
but we lost touch.
- [Stethoscope thuds]
- So what happens now?
Well, she goes back into the system
until we can find her another family.
- That's not gonna happen.
- If we find another one.
Look, not many people wanna
take in a 14-year-old girl,
let alone one with a record.
She's just a kid.
She needs someone to care about her.
Like I said, the only
other option right now...
is a group home.
We're not doing that. No.
Okay, I'll... watch
her for a few more days,
but then we have to
find something permanent.
- Where is she?
- Where's who?
Ariel. She was just
here. You didn't see her?
She's still staying with you?
[sighs]
Where'd you go?
Vending machine.
Soda? 7 in the morning. Nice.
There's real fruit juice
in it. Says right here.
Look, I can't sit around
here all day again.
That's why I asked you to hang
out at my house for a few days,
until I can figure things out.
Two days at your house is enough for me.
I really don't need you
to figure anything out.
I know a guy up in Oregon.
I can go stay there.
- You're not going to Oregon.
- You can't tell me what to do.
Oh.
Ariel, there must be someone
who knows your aunt's phone number.
I haven't talked to my
aunt in, like, a year.
She put me in a group home after juvie.
She doesn't want me,
and I don't want her.
$82.
- [Clatter]
- What?
That's how much the bus costs.
If you don't want me
to hitch, give me $82.
You are not taking some bus
to visit some guy in Oregon.
Okay, look, if you would
just please hang out here
for the day, okay?
- Just until I can...
- Figure something out?
Just... please.
[Man speaking indistinctly over PA]
Fine.
Okay.
Dispatch says he's a 55-year-old male,
status post-syncopal
episode, weak and diaphoretic,
collapsed on the scene.
Recent heart transplant.
Welcome to Angels Memorial.
What's your name, sir?
- His name is Bill.
- I can answer the man myself.
Bill Chislett.
I think it's my ticker. I got it used.
- Pulse is weak.
- Are you his son?
Son-in-law to be.
Wedding's in a couple weeks.
- We were bonding.
- For Pete's sake, Jeremy.
[Gasping]
Bill? Bill. Bill!
All right, Center Stage.
It was a sick move.
You didn't really stick the
landing, though, did you?
I landed on a guy's
foot. How's that my fault?
I can dance, but no one's that good.
Ginger Rogers did
everything Fred Astaire did
backwards and in heels.
Yeah, but could she dunk?
The only ginger I'm interested in
is the one that's gonna fix my ankle.
- Dr. Kean, what do you got?
- [Pen clicks]
- This is Russell...
- Gibson.
Point guard for Waverly University.
You're going first round of the draft.
- Oh, I like this guy already.
- [Chuckles]
But not just first round. Top 10.
Can you two bro out later?
Mr. Chislett, you need to
stay awake for me, all right?
Okay, let's get his
ejection fraction imaged
and send a BNP, please.
I'll start an echocardiogram.
You good?
He said he felt the flu coming
on, and I thought he was just
trying to get out of
spending time with me
until he puked and went down.
- Anna. Anna.
- What'd you say? Dad?
[Whispers] Anna.
Anna?
My fiancée. I called her, Bill.
Ejection fraction is low.
Has to be less than 15%.
[Indistinct conversations,
monitor beeping steadily]
- It's not the flu.
- What is it?
Yeah, I'm afraid that it
is your heart, Bill.
You're in organ failure.
Oh, criminy.
I'll start a central line.
I got this, Dr. Rorish.
All right, let's get 5 mil
per kilogram dobutamine in him
and page Dr. Campbell, please.
You hang in there, Bill.
I'm right here. You hear me?
Can he hear me? Can he hear me?
Please get him outta here.
Jesse, will you get
Jeremy to waiting, please?
Come on, buddy. He's in the
best of hands in this hospital.
That kid drives me nuts.
[Monitor beeping]
[Siren wailing, horn blaring]
What are you saying to her?
None of your beeswax.
He's got zero game, all
right? I'm his Cyrano.
I had to cancel three
times 'cause of work.
Yeah, and I told him
that he should invite her
to the hospital for a cup of coffee.
That's adorable.
Yeah, except the
cafeteria is not romantic.
Being romantic is not
your worry at this point.
- Getting a fourth shot is.
- [Siren wailing]
- Man: Pulling in now.
- All right, here we go.

You sure this is the place?
Uh, it's the right address.
Dispatch said they're
in the back, though.

[Bells jingle]
Man in distance: Leave! Leave now!
- Willis: Hello?!
- It's the cops!
... And cast them out.
Every feculent fire within

- [Shouts indistinctly]
- Cast him out, I pray!
- Guys?
- Father in Heaven, defend us!
Oh, my God.
- God's not here.
- Let her go.
- You don't understand.
- Now.
- The devil has his hooks in her.
- [Gasping]
We're recovering this
child from the devil.
We're gonna need that backboard.
[Speaking foreign language]
What's he saying?
God, good. Devil, bad?
- St. Michael, defend us.
- Yolanda, we're here.
- The devil's deceit and evil's...
- She's febrile.
- Pulse is thready.
- ... Leader of the soldiery of Heaven.
- Can we get him out of here?
- ... And cast him out.
- Yolanda, don't fight them.
- You, leader of the soldiery of Heaven,
by divine virtue,
thrust into hell, Satan,
and all the malignant spirits
who wander about the world
for the destruction of souls!
There's no money in there if
that's what you're looking for.
I wasn't looking for money.
Then what are you snooping
around my desk for?
You're a doctor. You don't have $82?
- Ariel, we need to talk.
- About what?
I called Family Services.
Are you serious?
Maybe they can help us find
someone in your family...
I didn't come here to get narc'd on.
No, I'm not going back into foster care.
Maybe they can help us
find someone in your family who can...
Who what? I don't need
anyone to take care of me.
- I'm fine by myself.
- Your father wouldn't want you
running off to Oregon by yourself.
Don't talk about my father.
I know how hard it was
on you when you lost him,
and I know how much you miss him.
Well, you're wrong. I don't miss him.
- I don't even remember him.
- I don't think that's true.
Who cares what you think?
I shouldn't have even come here.
Wait.
Ariel! Ariel?

- Okay.
Here we go.
The balloon pump is in place.
And once that's in, I'm good to go?
The balloon opens your aorta back up,
but it's not a fix.
Mr. Chislett, you're
still in heart failure.
- Do you understand?
- But I took all my meds.
This happens in 10% of cases.
Your body is rejecting the transplant.
This will buy you some time
until we find you another heart.
How long?
This heart was supposed to
get me to Anna's wedding.
Her mother passed.
I can't let her get married
without her dad there.
I've been thinking maybe you
can help me with my chem class.
Don't you have tutors
for that kind of thing?
Well, I'm less interested
in being tutored,
- more interested in...
- Getting answers.
I'm not gonna help you cheat.
It's the least you can do, Dr. K.
Keeping me waiting here all day.
We get busy here.
Waiting's part of the game.
He needs an X-ray.
You sure you're just not trying
to keep me around a little longer?
Ohh! Come on, champ.
I'm sorry. Did that hurt?
He doesn't need an X-ray.
He has pain in his malleolar
zone and can't bear weight.
I know the Ottawa rules.
It's a sprain, not a break.
Radiology's backed up.
Standard team procedure.
They'll want the scan.
All right. [Gloves snap]
Fine. You want him? He's all yours.
[Gasping and screaming]
[Monitor beeping rapidly]
Dr. Rorish, 20-year-old
female completely altered.
Her blood pressure's
been falling steadily.
Okay, let's put her in restraints
so she doesn't hurt
herself or someone else.
B.P.'s 90 systolic.
- What happened to her?
- Exorcism.
[Gasping continues]
- Really.
- [Grunting]
Uh, bolus a liter and
put her on pressors.
They said she came down with the
flu a day ago, had a fever spiked,
then became aggressive and incoherent.
- You paged a surgical consult?
- Yeah, gallstones.
Sonographic Murphy's and ultrasound
showed pericholecystic fluid.
You guys think it's psych?
She's got a fever of 104.
Definitely an infection.
- Dr. Dixon?
- Meningitis or encephalitis.
We need to do a spinal tap to be sure.
It could be rabies.
Rabies? I like it when
you go off the reservation.
Rabies cases are very rare.
Her gallbladder's infected.
We'll get her to the next OR
- [Growling]
- Whoa.
- Ow!
- Leanne: Whoa, whoa, whoa.
What the...
Jesse: We need help right away, guys!
Let's go!
Okay. Let's get her up.
[Growling]
[Indistinct conversations,
telephone ringing]
- Hi.
- Kelly.
Uh-oh. That doesn't sound good.
I, uh, I, uh...
I did not know you were coming.
You asked me to come. I
replied back to your texts.
R-really?
I didn't...
I did not see that.
- Yeah. I am so sorry...
- Oh, you know what?
- I'm just gonna go.
- It's been a crazy night.
- I'm gonna let you...
- No, look. I'm at the end of my shift.
I just need to kill a few charts.
Would you just, uh, wait?
Please?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- Be right back.
- [Chuckles]
[Indistinct conversations]
Excuse me.
I-I'm looking for my friend.
She was brought here
a couple of hours ago.
- Her name's Yolanda.
- Are you family?
No, she doesn't talk
to her family anymore.
Then I can't discuss
her medical condition.
But she's alive, right?
She's alive. We're
doing everything we can.
She should've been brought
to the hospital sooner.
Her boyfriend called me and dragged me
to whatever that was.
Then why didn't you stop it?
I don't know.
The whole thing just got out of hand.
You saw her.
They said she was possessed.
[Scoffs]
Okay, obviously, she wasn't.
She needed a doctor.
Yolanda, you still with us?
Haldol kicked in.
This may be the only
rabies case we ever see.
If ever there was a
teaching opportunity.
Ow.
- Is this really necessary?
- Dr. Dixon?
Injecting rabies immune globulin
directly into the wound
should hopefully...
Sugarbear, I swear to God.
[Monitor beeping steadily]
Jesse, did she have these bruises on her
when we brought her in?
[Monitor beeping erratically]
I didn't notice them before.
Ow!
You inject like a first-year.
Yeah, and you're a great
patient. Stay still.
Leanne, what color is the spinal fluid?
[Snip]
Black.
This isn't rabies.
What?
Both of you step back right now.
Mario, step away from Heather.
Anyone in Center Stage who
does not need to be here,
needs to leave immediately!
Go, right now!
- What the hell is going on?
- Dr. Willis?
We need to quarantine this ER
and initiate infectious
disease protocol now.
Someone talk to me!
[Indistinct shouting]
Risa, tell security to shut the doors.
No one in or out. Run!
What is it?
Hemorrhagic fever.
We need to get the CDC in here now.
♪ ♪
[Siren wailing]
Man over radio: Trauma One.
[Indistinct shouting]
[Indistinct conversations]
Right this way.
[Zipper whirs]
Listen up, everybody.
This zone is now hot.
All infected patients are to
be quarantined in this tent
and managed by CDC staff.
This is Dr. Gretchen Reed,
epidemiologist from CDC, San Diego.
Dr. Willis, CCCRP.
It's a real acronym party in here.
Thanks for calling us
in. How many exposed?
Two symptomatic. One confirmed exposure.
My surgeon was bitten.
- Bitten?
- Bitten.
Okay. Depersonalization.
Hemorrhaging creates
blood clots in the brain,
leaving just the brain stem functioning.
Personality of the patient is... erased.
All that's left is coughing,
spitting, and... biting.
Where are they?
I'll show you.
Yolanda's already in the tent.
They're taking Alicia now.
No! [Cries]
No!
[Sobbing]
Where are you taking me?! Somebody help!
In response to your earlier question,
this is why the
restraints are necessary.
Well, if you hadn't
scared the hell out of her,
this might've gone a lot easier.
Trust me, they never go
inside the hot zone willingly.
Heather: I'm not going into that tent.
Stop. Okay, stop, stop, stop.
I'm not going into the tent!
- Wait, stop!
- As I said.
Stop!
Dr. Rorish.
Do something. Dr. Rorish.
I'm sorry, Heather.
[Beeping, zipper whirs]
General, based on the
advice of Dr. Reed,
we've quarantined the whole hospital.
General: I've been in
contact with DOD, Colonel.
Additional National Guardsmen
are being called up as a precaution.
Is that necessary?
If this is anything like
what I saw in Guinea...
You were there for the Lassa outbreak?
How many survived?
- This could be totally different.
- How many?
None.
Can you confirm that it's not airborne?
Yes, it seems to be fluid-borne.
Is it treatable?
Can't know that until we
know what the virus is.
Well, we don't have a lot of time.
Patient Zero was healthy 36 hours ago.
Her friend became
symptomatic 8 hours ago.
That's aggressive.
Dr. Pinkney's on the clock.
Our primary concern should
be containing and testing
everyone who could've been exposed.
There's over a hundred people
in the waiting room alone.
How do you test for an unknown virus?
The presence of antibodies.
Real time PCR takes too long.
Start with an IgMantibody panel.
Those who show signs of infection
should go inside the
hot zone for monitoring.
All right, Colonel
Willis, keep me informed.
[Line disconnects]
[Door opens]
We have a containment issue.
There were others present when
we found the infected patient.
We need to go back there now.
Her name is Ariel.
Look in the break room,
look in the cafeteria.
If you find her, put her in my office.
What aren't you telling us?
When are you gonna open
the hospital back up?
Okay, Doctors, I want you
to start drawing blood now.
We need antibody panels on every
person in here starting with staff,
there's a flood of new stations
set up in the back corridor.
Until then, PPEs on at all times.
Don't forget to smile.
We need everyone calm.
That means being calm ourselves.
Or at least act like it, right?
That'll work, too.
Has anyone seen Dr. Kean?
Are they gonna let us out anytime soon?
It's been hours.
They're just being extra careful.
If I got that virus
thing, is it treatable?
I know as much as you.
Not that I don't mind all
this one-on-one treatment.
How long you been twitching like that?
Oh. Uh, few days.
It's been messing with my crossover.
[Light clicks]
Dilated pupils, fever,
sweating, twitching.
Are you taking any medications?
- What?
- You're not sick.
You're having a pharmacological
reaction. What are you on?
- Nothing.
- Speed? Adderall?
- What? No!
- Russell, tell me the truth.
I take Zoloft.
- How much?
- Just a pill a day as prescribed.
Are you taking more?
You're anxious, you're having
memory and focus problems
on top of the physical symptoms.
I told you it was a vicious cycle...
the school, the games, stress.
- Russell.
- [Sighs]
Fine. Okay, I -I've been
taking just a few extra pills
just to help me focus.
What's the big deal?
The big deal is that
your brain is going crazy
from too much serotonin.
But the medicine's supposed to help.
Taking too much causes the same symptoms
you're treating to treat.
You're creating the vicious cycle.

This is our primary concern now.

So you think this
came from someone else?
There's nothing in Yolanda's
history that would point

[Indistinct conversations]
Right this way.
[Zipper whirs]
Listen up, everybody.
This zone is now hot.
All infected patients are to
be quarantined in this tent
and managed by CDC staff.
This is Dr. Gretchen Reed,
epidemiologist from CDC, San Diego.
Dr. Willis, CCCRP.
It's a real acronym party in here.
Thanks for calling us
in. How many exposed?
Two symptomatic. One confirmed exposure.
My surgeon was bitten.
- Bitten?
- Bitten.
Okay. Depersonalization.
Hemorrhaging creates
blood clots in the brain,
leaving just the brain stem functioning.

General, based on the
advice of Dr. Reed,
we've quarantined the whole hospital.
General: I've been in
contact with DOD, Colonel.
Additional National Guardsmen
are being called up as a precaution.
Is that necessary?
If this is anything like
what I saw in Guinea...
You were there for the Lassa outbreak?
How many survived?
- This could be totally different.
- How many?
None.
Can you confirm that it's not airborne?
Yes, it seems to be fluid-borne.
Is it treatable?
Can't know that until we
know what the virus is.
Well, we don't have a lot of time.
Patient Zero was healthy 36 hours ago.
Her friend became
symptomatic 8 hours ago.
That's aggressive.
Dr. Pinkney's on the clock.
Our primary concern should
be containing and testing
everyone who could've been exposed.
There's over a hundred people
in the waiting room alone.
How do you test for an unknown virus?
The presence of antibodies.
Real time PCR takes too long.
Start with an IgMantibody panel.
Those who show signs of infection
should go inside the
hot zone for monitoring.
All right, Colonel
Willis, keep me informed.
[Line disconnects]
[Door opens]
We have a containment issue.
There were others present when
we found the infected patient.
We need to go back there now.
Her name is Ariel.
Look in the break room,
look in the cafeteria.
If you find her, put her in my office.
What aren't you telling us?
When are you gonna open
the hospital back up?
Okay, Doctors, I want you
to start drawing blood now.
We need antibody panels on every
person in here starting with staff,
there's a flood of new stations
set up in the back corridor.
Until then, PPEs on at all times.
Don't forget to smile.
We need everyone calm.
That means being calm ourselves.
Or at least act like it, right?
That'll work, too.
Has anyone seen Dr. Kean?
Are they gonna let us out anytime soon?
It's been hours.
They're just being extra careful.
If I got that virus
thing, is it treatable?
I know as much as you.
Not that I don't mind all
this one-on-one treatment.
How long you been twitching like that?
Oh. Uh, few days.
It's been messing with my crossover.
[Light clicks]
Dilated pupils, fever,
sweating, twitching.
Are you taking any medications?
- What?
- You're not sick.
You're having a pharmacological
reaction. What are you on?
- Nothing.
- Speed? Adderall?
- What? No!
- Russell, tell me the truth.
I take Zoloft.
- How much?
- Just a pill a day as prescribed.
Are you taking more?
You're anxious, you're having

the school, the games, stress.
- Russell.
- [Sighs]
Fine. Okay, I -I've been
taking just a few extra pills
just to help me focus.
What's the big deal?
The big deal is that
your brain is going crazy

But the medicine's supposed to help.
Taking too much causes the same symptoms
you're treating to treat.
You're creating the vicious cycle.

We have three dead who were

Alicia's the only survivor thus far.
But she's deteriorating rapidly.
When was she exposed?
Oh, 29 hours ago.
[Beeping]
This is our primary concern now.
_
So you think this
came from someone else?
There's nothing in Yolanda's
history that would point
to how she would've been exposed.
So potentially there's another vector
out there still spreading this.
You know, you...
you're forgetting one name.
I'm not forgetting her.
Heather was infected...
just after 8 a.m.
It's 1:21.
That's 17 hours.

- What can we do?
- We're already doing it.
Providing supportive care, fluids,

maintenance of blood pressure.
We'd like access to all the
dialysis machines you can spare.
