First Responders (2020): Season 1, Episode 6 - Fjällsjön, del 2 - full transcript

Anything more on the
lake accident?

There's someone in the water.
You know, it's different up here.

The mountain lakes never get
warmer than four of five degrees.

-They found the girl.
-What are you waiting for?

-We have to bring the boy in first.
-Are you joking?

Come on, faster now!
She can't be out there forever!

-You know where she is?
-Yes.

-Why didn't you bring her in too?
-Ask Mackan.

We'll never give up,
and it's important you don't either.

We need to warm him from the inside.

We need to flush his bladder
and stomach with warm water.



FIRST RESPONDERS

This is a relative of the canoe
accident victim. Where can he wait?

Here, come with me.

-Would you like coffee or something?
-No.

I know you're divorced, but...

If you don't call Lina's mother now,
I will.

She still lives in ?re. It's only a
matter of time before she finds out.

Yeah.

-But we don't know anything.
-But we can't wait any longer.

I see her there!

-There, there!
-Just go! Straight ahead!

I'll see what I can do. Yes.

We have a problem.

It's full in ?stersund, so we're
getting another drowning patient.



Jump, Tomas! Jump!

-Are you okay?
-I'm okay.

She's got hypothermia,
so intermittent CPR.

Five, five.

Helicopter to Markus' group:

We're landing in a field
east of your position.

Just over a kilometre through the
forest. It's the closest we can land.

Copy that. We'll come
as soon as we can!

-Okay, let's lift!
-One, two, three.

-Two minutes until the next CPR.
-Good.

You heard. We have to carry
the stretcher through the forest.

-Yep, here.
-Tighten up there. Ready? Let's go.

One, two, three!

-Well done, guys!
-Come on!

Right here!

Let's get our act together.
It's going to be really heavy.

-Let me know if I should take over.
-Come on!

-25 degrees.
-We'll have an ECMO in 15 minutes.

?stersund have none, Trondheim's are
in use so they're flying in Ume?'s.

-We need two. When is she coming?
-I'll check.

Prepare OP-2, warm up a lot of
fluids. And heat blankets as well.

-If we have any.
-Yes.

He's up to 26 degrees.

Watch for the tiniest sign
of electric activity in his heart.

-Okay.
-Absolutely.

It's going well! Down for CPR!
Down for CPR!

Are you okay, Tomas?

-It's not far, now.
-...29, 30. I can carry.

That's good. I'll take the front.

-Good.
-It should be that way.

-Hello, I'm Lina's mother.
-Bj?rn.

-A canoe accident. Is she here?
-No, she hasn't arrived yet.

-But your husband is here.
-Ex-husband.

-Where is she? Is she okay?
-We don't know, but she's on her way.

Come, I'll show you.

-Would you like some coffee?
-No, thanks. I'm fine.

Hi, you must be Annelie. ?sa.

What's the latest?

Nothing has really happened
since Anders called.

We've been told they've found her
and are coming in.

I understand that it's hard
right now, but we just have to wait.

I'll be running back and forth.
If you need anything, just...

Well.

-Damn thorn-bushes!
-Watch out!

-Careful, Sofia!
-Yes.

Come on, Sofia. Let's keep going.

-Move, I'll take over.
-Tomas, lift there.

We have 100 metres left,
we can do this! Are you ready?

-Yes.
-Come on!

-29 degrees.
-Anytime now.

Prepare the glucose IV
and adrenaline.

Okay, carefully now.
That's good.

Mind the stump.

Ditch!

Go, now!

-It's the homestretch!
-Come on!

-Good work!
-Two minutes since CPR.

-Two minutes since CPR.
-Commencing CPR immediately.

-Two, three!
-Great!

-There.
-Thanks.

Damn, Sofia,
you've cut yourself badly.

-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm fine.

Stop it.

-What the hell?
-Stop it, you bastard! Dammit!

Calm down.

Calm down now.

Do we need to find another room?

No, that's not necessary.

-Okay, 30 degrees now.
-Adrenaline.

Come on, Joel.

-Why are you so angry?
-We'll talk later.

No, we won't. We'll talk now.

Do you think I made the wrong call?
That we should have gone for the girl

while you did CPR
on the boy in the boat?

-I don't know. Maybe.
-What do you mean by "maybe"?

If we'd gone straight for the girl,
we'd have risked both of them.

At least we gave one of them
a chance.

Or we'd have brought her up
straight away.

And then?

I made a decision...
and I'll have to live with it.

I'm sure it was right,
but I have to process this.

Well done, Sofia! You should be
proud. See you at the next call out!

Here, Sofia. You can go with me.

Come on.

In here.

Okay, on three: One, two, three.

-Can you continue so I can intubate?
-Yes.

When you can spare me,
I'll help Kerstin with the ECMO.

-Can you come here, Ellinor?
-Yes.

Tape.

Take over.

Okay, Zara, I'll help Kerstin.

Stand back.

No.

-Go.
-One, two, three, four, five...

-Temp?
-34.5.

We'll try again in two minutes.

Hey... Are you okay?

I'm okay.

-Is it okay for you to close tonight?
-Yes, we already agreed.

You're so awesome, Katja.
I mean it. For real.

-I have to do something. See you!
-Yep.

Temp?

37.

-We'll give adrenaline again.
-Go.

It's here.

Put it on the girl instead.
I'll be right there.

-What do you mean?
-You know what I mean.

-Okay?
-Yes.

We're going to Room two.

Temperature?

-18 degrees.
-Good. IV and catheter in place.

-What are you doing here?
-It was too late.

Okay.

I'll start setting up,
but I'll need help.

Kerstin will be here soon.

Okay.

Temp?

38.

You can stop the CPR now.

We're letting you go now, Joel.

You can put things away and take off
electrodes, needles and heat blanket.

But you know all that.

Chin up now.
We have another patient who needs us.

Okay.

Okay.

-Hello.
-Hi.

-What...happened to your cheek?
-It's fine, it's...

They just pronounced
the boy dead, so...

Damn.

We have to prepare for
the death notice.

Joel, yes...

Call me if you hear anything.
Yes. Bye.

How are you doing?

I'm okay.

But I...

I prioritised the girl.

I don't know.

Maybe I should have gone
in the ambulance.

I saw him as well.

I don't think it would have
made a difference.

I need to get back to Lina's parents.

-Let's cross our fingers for her.
-Yes.

...17, 18, 19, 20, 21,
22, 23, 24, 25,

26, 27, 28, 39, 30, there.

One, two, three, four...

-I've prepared as much as I can.
-Good.

Wash and prepare for entry
through the groin.

-What happened with the guy?
-Nothing. That was the problem.

She's here now.

-When can we see her?
-I don't know.

-How is she? Is she alive?
-I only know that she's unconscious.

-When can we see her?
-I'm sorry, I don't know any more.

As soon as the doctor can,
she'll talk to you.

She's in a coma?

You have to understand, I don't know.
Maybe she's been anesthetised.

They're treating her now,
so you can't see her, unfortunately.

How's Joel?

I'm really sorry, but...

...Joel didn't survive.

He didn't survive.

-Hello.
-Hello.

-Have you got food?
-Yes.

Are you okay?

I'm having trouble relaxing. I
thought I'd something useful instead.

Nice.

How are you?

The boy died.

-And the girl?
-They're treating her.

I see.

You need to eat.

There you go.

Tomas, can you get a knife?

She's plugged in.
Everything's under control.

Ah, pizza, wonderful.
Thank you so much, Markus.

We should relieve the other nurses
so they can have some too.

-What happens now?
-In a few hours she'll be warm.

How long can you stay for?

I'll be here for as long
as the parents are here.

I just need to wind down a bit.

And I'm staying. Let me know
if you want me to do anything.

Yes. I need to check which
of the staff I can send home.

Can you stay a while? We need to
be prepared for heart flutters.

Yes, absolutely.

Hey...

I don't know
if I can do this job anymore.

Come on.

I...

I can't disconnect.
I just absorb everything.

That's what makes you
good at this job.

-This isn't your fault.
-I can't do it anymore.

Hey...
Joel's death isn't your fault.

-Thank you.
-Of course.

Have you even eaten anything?
You need to eat and rest.

Have you even had any water?

Come on. Let's get out of here.
Come, come.

Should it be this quiet?

Yes, the heart and lung machine
is taking care of everything.

She's resting and warming up.
- What is she at now?

-25.
-That was a bit fast, but...

-Are you doing everything you can?
-Yes, of course.

-Can... May we touch her?
-Yes, of course.

Just be careful.

Darling.

Little, little darling.

We're here with you now.
You can do this, Lina.

You're fantastic.

Where is everyone?

I don't know. Around.

-Hey!
-Hey.

-Why are you here so late?
-I tried to call Mum. No answer.

She's busy.

That canoeing accident?
Why are they here?

-How did it go?
-The boy didn't make it.

Okay.
I'll go in and see her.

-No, you can't.
-I have to talk to her.

-Saving one life over another.
-It's tough.

Hey...

Sorry for...just going to Gotland
without saying anything.

And most importantly...

...for not telling you
about my family.

It was really weird, actually.

This morning, I was so stressed
with Tomas and all that.

Well, the whole situation
is very strange.

We're colleagues.
Let's leave it at that.

-I heard about the new cutbacks.
-But that's not the worst part.

Every purchase has to be approved
by the regional manager.

Even if we're within the budget.

That sounds unnecessary.
What a waste of resources.

It is what it is.

Yes, but it doesn't have to be.

You'll have to fight fire with fire.
Tell them you'll quit.

-Then you'll get them going.
-No, I can't.

They know what you and Dad built up
here. Why it's so successful.

The community's trust.

And you stick to the budget.
You make a profit.

Yes, maybe, but you know
I never like to lie.

No... So don't.

Meet an investor, have a coffee.
Then you won't be lying.

I know several people who want to
meet you. Dad would have done it.

Yes, maybe.

-Fetch the others quickly.
-Absolutely.

-Let's talk more later.
-Yes. Bye.

Can you please stop pacing?

What's going on?

I'll check. You'll have to wait here.

I want everyone to listen.
She's at 28.7 degrees

and her heart shows signs
of atrial fibrillation.

If her heart shows
a spontaneous rhythm tendency,

I'll disconnect her
and try to get her heart going.

It's a bit risky for the brain,
but we have no choice.

At 30 degrees,
we'll administer IV glucose,

followed by adrenaline every eighth
minutes. Does everyone understand?

-Absolutely.
-Good.

It was the biggest mistake
of your life!

You've never done anything worse!
That fucking boat! It's your fault!

Calm down.

What's going on?
What do they say?

That Lina is getting close to
a temperature where her heart

could start to beat again,
so they want to be prepared.

That's all, for now.

Come, let's have some coffee.

I...

I don't think I can do this.

I wouldn't survive if I lose her.

I really think you need to
put those thoughts on hold for now.

Okay... Okay.

One thing at a time.

Right now we wait.
And we hope.

-Can we?
-Of course.

I don't want her to die.

30 degrees.

-What are we waiting for?
-For her to want to.

-A sign that her heart wants to beat.
-31 degrees.

-Come on, Lina.
-Come on now, Lina.

-There!
-Adrenaline and glucose.

Defibrillator 200 joules.

200 joules. Stand back!

-They don't feel totally stiff.
-We'll disconnect her.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

Prepare for heart compression
and ventilation.

Be ready.

Take over.

-What's the plan?
-What kind of a question is that?

-I had to ask.
-What do you think?

You can get guidance.
Do you want us to give up?

Examine the body and make a decision.

25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30.

What do you say?

-Pupil reflex returning.
-Meaning?

-We should continue.
-Yes. She's here.

360 joules. Stand back.

Come on, Lina.

One more time. Stand back.

We have a spontaneous pulse.

You're okay.

-She's going to make it.
-Really?

Hello, darling. Hello.

Darling.

-You're so strong, darling.
-I want to go home.

You will come home. I'll find out
how long you have to stay here.

-So great.
-Yes.

Hey...I need a hug.

-I have to go home and hug Kevin too.
-Say "hi" from me.

Thanks for your help.

Here's the situation:
Lina needs to sleep and recover.

A helicopter is on its way
with an anesthetist.

They'll anesthetise her again
and take her to Karolinska.

So my advice to you is to go home
and prepare to go to Stockholm.

-I can drive you if you need a lift.
-Yes, please. I don't have a car.

I can drive you home.

-You can?
-Of course I can.

I thought I saw you sneak in here.

Do you want to be alone?

Well, not really.

I was really worried about you today.

That was some day.

I hope things don't have to be
awkward between us.

I understand your situation and
I'd never want to break up a family.

But it's really hard for me
right now.

But you do what you need to do.

It's not that simple.

No, I understand.

Goodbye. Take care.

Thank you. Thank you!

Thank you so much.

Of course, it's... Of course.

-We're just so grateful she's alive.
-Yes.

-Maybe we should go.
-Yes. Goodbye.
