Nina (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 3 - Bleus au coeur - full transcript
It's too early.
Dad, it's my day off.
Nina? It's Miranda,
your father's cleaner.
Yes?
- He's collapsed.
- What?
ACCIDENT AND EMERGENCY
I don't understand it.
He was fine yesterday.
I found him on the floor
this morning.
He wasn't breathing.
- Where did they take him?
- I don't know.
I'll be right back. OK?
He had an angina attack.
His heart was starved of oxygen.
It could be an infarction.
I've given him nitroglycerine.
Good. Can I see him?
HEARTACHE
Dad?
Can you hear me? It's Nina.
If you can hear me, squeeze my hand.
Please.
You can hear me. I felt it.
Nina.
It's good.
It's good you're here.
Get some rest.
I'll see you later.
- He has angina.
- Is it bad?
I don't know.
Fine. Miranda, you can go home now.
Goodbye.
Will you call me?
I promise.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Goodbye.
Stop it.
- If she hadn't been there...
- Luckily she was.
I need some air.
- Hello, Gloria.
- Hello, Costa.
Look after my husband.
Make sure he gets better.
- How is he?
- I don't know.
He seems very weak.
I've never seen him like that.
I'll look after him.
We'll get him back on his feet.
- OK.
- OK?
Come on.
We haven't done his file.
He's staying here.
He needs to be moved
to internal medicine.
He's our patient.
We can't leave Professor Auber
down here.
OK. Take him.
I've got enough problems.
And since you've got room,
you can have another patient.
Hello.
- Take off the cuffs.
- OK.
What is all this?
What's the problem?
There was an argument
going on at home.
His girlfriend was crying.
We brought him in.
You should have brought her.
She refused to come.
He felt ill in the car.
Put him in here.
- Nina.
- I'll be right there.
- Are you OK?
- Yes.
- What are you doing?
- Putting on my lipstick.
He's a professor!
Get out. Off you go!
Room 28 has been ringing
for 15 minutes.
Don't look like that.
I'm feeling better.
If I wasn't...
the former boss of your ex-husband,
they'd have sent me home by now.
Don't talk rubbish!
So, Antoine, what's wrong?
Ah! Mr Proust!
You didn't need to come.
It's just...
a touch of angina.
I'd rather check all the same.
What are you doing?
Trying to work.
Same here.
Let me deal with my patient.
- Your patient?
- Yes. My patient.
Why is he your patient?
- I'm the head of department.
- And we know why.
That's enough!
Stop the cockfighting
and look after my father.
She's quite right.
There's too much ego in here.
Everyone leave.
No. Not you. You stay.
This is a teaching hospital.
Over to the youngster.
But...
Out, please.
- You too, darling.
- What?
- We can't have this!
- We've got no choice.
Since when do we listen
to patients?
He taught us all we know.
Why choose him
when we are the best doctors?
He doesn't always make
the best choices.
He married my mother.
- I'll keep an eye on him.
- Me too.
That's not reassuring me.
You can wait in reception.
OK.
I'm warning you. I can't bear
people who hit women!
I haven't done anything.
Right.
Did she slip on the stairs?
Léo.
Come on!
Come on.
What are you doing?
He hit his girlfriend.
He's our patient.
Is that clear?
- I'm not treating him.
- I'll do it.
It's your day off.
I'm here.
And I need to keep busy.
Get changed.
Thanks.
Look after Professor Auber.
I wouldn't blame him
if he hit his wife.
Do you know what caused
the attack?
No. I'm just the patient.
You're the doctor.
At least you think so.
If you whine like that
when doing examinations,
then I'm not surprised.
Is it OK?
Not really.
We need a blood test and an ECG.
Continue the nitroglycerin.
There you go.
Rest. I'll come back later.
So?
You're living with my daughter?
And your wife.
Thanks for that.
Sorry.
I tried my best but...
it seems she's happier there.
Get changed.
The doctor will examine you.
Could you go?
No. I don't have time.
Take off your shirt.
I'll check your blood pressure.
I'd rather keep it on.
I see half-dressed patients
every day.
I'm keeping my shirt on.
OK?
What's going on?
- Doctor?
- Not now.
If you want to take it out
on someone,
I've got a patient
who likes to hit women.
I like him already.
Are you the shy one?
I don't need to be examined.
Are you a doctor?
- Are you going to force me?
- Yes.
You've got no right.
Are you a lawyer too?
Enough of this.
What happened to you?
- I slipped on the stairs.
- Lie down.
Some bruises are recent.
Some scars are older.
And your nose is running.
I've had a cold for a few days.
Days or weeks?
- Weeks.
- High temperature?
No, just a runny nose.
That's it?
Stupid cops!
She's the one hitting him.
- What do we do?
- Nothing.
He'll go back home
and get hit again.
- No.
- What?
- We'll call social services.
- They'll do nothing.
Will he file a complaint?
No.
We can't do anything.
I'm worried about his cold.
Hold on.
He's getting beaten up
and you're worried about his cold?
Get a sample of his nasal secretion.
Pardon?
OK.
You see, you can do it.
Have you got the results
for your father?
No. Not yet.
I'd like to say he's OK,
but I'm not sure.
I'll do what I can.
Thanks.
- What time do you finish?
- It depends.
I can always get away early.
- Can you put on the siren?
- And go through red lights.
At full speed!
Dorothée!
Put on your gloves:
we need a sample of snot.
Snot? Right now?
No. Christmas.
You can get a coffee.
It'll be a while.
OK. Thanks.
Hold on.
Sorry. No. Nothing.
Well?
Your father is tired, but stable.
I'll look after him.
What about that guy?
He's being hit.
Did he hoodwink you?
No. You should see the bruises!
Shit! I wanted to smash his face!
Too late.
I'm going to see my dad.
You know your mother is here?
- Am I interrupting?
- No.
No. I'm not staying.
He's fallen asleep.
He's tired.
He's never ill.
I leave and now he's in hospital.
This isn't about you.
It is, it's my fault.
I wasn't there when he collapsed.
I forbid you to die.
I won't be a widow.
- I'll be back.
- What is it?
Doctor.
Sorry, it's urgent.
It's Professor Auber.
Excuse me. I'll be right back.
Do a blood test.
- What is it?
- Blood in his urine.
Why are you here?
I asked him to come.
My father is getting worse.
I need you all.
We need an abdominal x-ray
and ultrasound of his kidneys.
The angina and kidney problem
are related.
- An infection?
- Protein C is high.
- And leucocytes.
- We'll check for infections.
I'll do it.
In the meantime, put him
on broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Nothing to add.
We'll talk again
when we have the results.
I'll... I'll go.
You never trusted me.
I always trusted you.
It didn't work.
Don't move.
There. It isn't very pleasant.
Baby!
- How are you, darling?
- I'm OK.
How is he?
I don't know.
I'm not a doctor.
Don't worry. I'm fine.
Don't mind me.
I've got what I need.
- Could we be alone?
- Yes.
Who's that tart?
What?
Don't start with me.
She's a nurse.
I don't know her.
See the look she gave me?
Let's not have an argument.
Please.
OK?
If you leave me, I'll kill you.
What are you doing?
Visiting my boyfriend.
He can't have visitors.
- Surely I can...
- You have to leave.
Don't speak to me like that.
Are you going to hit me?
I swear I...
Don't bother.
Tell the police
you're not filing a complaint.
Happy now?
You can do what you like.
But you're my patient
and I have to look after you.
She's not bad.
"Not bad"?
Young, gorgeous and a doctor.
I'll never forgive him.
We're not the first to divorce.
It's the marriage
that makes me cross.
You could've been a doctor.
You can always get a husband.
But a career...
I don't want to talk about it.
Your father will recover.
Why did you leave him?
I don't know.
Since retiring, I've felt useless.
I couldn't just stay at home.
I needed a change.
What does Dad say?
I don't know.
He's not very talkative.
I know.
Sorry. I'll see you later.
It isn't snot up your nose.
It's cerebrospinal fluid.
What?
From your brain.
Coming from a hole
at the base of your skull.
Let me guess.
Did she hit you with the spanner
or the candlestick?
OK. We argued. That's it.
I pushed her too far.
She was defending herself.
She's a great girl.
She fractured your skull.
You need to have an MRI
as a matter of urgency,
before your brain falls out.
Do a blood test.
- I don't want an MRI.
- Why not?
You'll report her.
No. We can't do anything,
unfortunately.
You have to do it.
Can you see me going to the cops?
A guy who gets beaten up
by a girl. They'Il laugh.
No. No-one will laugh.
It's your life. It's unbearable.
You can't put up with it.
Nina.
Your dad is having his scan.
OK. On my way.
I can't believe she hits him.
You should have seen her.
She looked in love.
She was horrid to you.
- Girls never like me.
- Really?
Nina, can I speak to you?
Yes.
We've got the results.
There's a gumma.
What?
A nodule in his kidney.
- We can operate, but...
- What?
The gumma
is the result of an infection.
What infection?
- We've done an analysis...
- Tell me!
Your father has syphilis. I...
No way.
Nina, I'm sorry.
It's syphilis.
It's quite advanced.
It's not an STD.
He's never cheated on my mother.
Once is enough.
We'll start him
on stronger antibiotics.
We'll check if any other organs
are affected.
- Speak to Gloria.
- What?
- She'll have to have a blood test.
- Why me?
She's your mother.
You're the doctor.
When it suits you.
I'll go and see Professor...
Do I need a blood test?
- Once is enough?
- Listen...
Stop it!
Enough excuses.
I just need to know
if I need screening.
No. I promise you.
I never took any risks.
OK.
Bad day?
Need to talk to a professional?
It's fine. Thanks.
I just have to tell my mother
my father has syphilis.
Is that all?
I thought it was something serious.
You don't have to deal
with all this alone.
It's the only way I know.
- Aren't you getting out?
- Yes. Sorry.
See you later.
It's ridiculous. Your father spent
his time on books and patients.
He never had time to play around.
And he's not exactly athletic.
Mum!
Syphilis? No way!
I know it's embarrassing,
but face it.
I'm not easily deceived.
Redo the tests. You'll see.
Call surgery to book him
in for tomorrow.
So he's got a hole in his skull,
but also other fractures
around his face.
- She's been hitting him for months?
- It's gone too far.
Hello. Can my boyfriend
come home tonight?
I'll handle it.
Let me go! Are you crazy?
Yes, I'm nuts.
I'd like to break your arm.
But I wouldn't enjoy it.
You nearly killed him.
Get out.
And don't come back.
OK?
My father's a lawyer.
He'll have you fired.
- Get lost.
- You'll be hearing from me.
Whatever.
- Léo?
- Leave me alone.
Sorry.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Get out, Nina.
- What are those scars?
- Forget it.
- Go away!
- OK. Sorry.
Are you OK?
No, I'm not.
My father is dying
and my mother is winding me up.
He's not dying.
How do you know?
I won't let him.
He won't leave you alone
with your mother.
He's responding to treatment.
He's tired, but he's a fighter.
Hey!
- Léo has done it.
- I know.
I'm staying tonight.
You should go home.
It is your day off.
I'd rather be here.
OK.
Call me if you need me.
- Nadine?
- Yes?
Why don't you go home?
This is my home.
Dad.
Please don't leave me.
All right?
Smile.
Smile, Nina.
It's not time yet.
Or...
I'd tell you how much I love you.
How happy I am to have you.
And how proud I am
of the person you've become.
I can't come home.
Granddad needs me.
Grandma is here.
No need to call social services.
Are you OK, Mum?
Yes, don't worry about me.
- I love you to the moon.
- Me too.
Bye.
Come home. I love you.
I know you think badly of me.
Not at all.
I'm too tired.
Have you ever loved someone
who wasn't good for you?
Yes.
One day I realised I had
to love myself more than him.
And I left.
Come on.
See that?
And there too.
You have half a dozen fractures.
It's a miracle you're still alive.
Shall I go on?
No, don't.
Do you have parents?
Yes.
Do they love you?
I think so.
She's all I have.
I know you're right but...
I don't have the courage to leave.
Nina.
Nina.
You should take a shower.
The day team will start soon.
- Are you OK?
- I'm fine. You?
I'm worried about Granddad.
- Are you going to see him?
- No!
It's too depressing to see him.
But he needs you.
You're like all doctors.
You can't deal with sick people.
Are you brave enough to go?
What's going on?
Nothing.
I had a row with Lily.
Well... She had a row with me.
Miranda?
I rang.
I'd brought clean clothes.
We were talking
and now I can't wake him.
Dad?
- Can you hear me?
- What is it?
He's unconscious.
He has hypertension.
40 mg of furosemide.
OK.
- Will he be OK?
- Yes.
Stay here.
I'll get Antonakis.
Well?
I don't know.
We've given him antibiotics,
and he's getting worse.
- Hold on.
- Save him.
- We'll do all we can.
You have to save him.
Hi.
What are you doing?
Isn't that what friends do?
Friends talk to each other.
You tell me nothing.
I saw your scars.
Forget you saw them.
As you wish.
I have to take a patient
to surgery.
Mr Perry?
Tomer, are you there?
- Where is he?
- Who?
- The patient in room 15.
- I haven't seen him.
You're useless.
- Can I talk to you?
- No, I'm busy.
- Dr Proust, sorry...
- I'm not interested.
Hold on!
I might have an idea.
You might have an idea?
I've got an idea.
I'm listening.
- I think...
- You're not here to think.
What's your diagnosis?
It's a Herxheimer reaction.
The penicillin led
to the release of an exotoxin
secreted by the Treponema.
He's right.
The treatment is working,
but the toxins
are attacking your body.
At this rate, you'll die cured.
What do we do?
Stop the antibiotics.
Continue with the aspirin.
Once he's stable,
we can operate on the kidney.
We'll make a doctor of you yet.
Stop the penicillin. OK?
Tell Antonakis before he claims
he's in charge.
He's an idiot, but he likes you.
I think Proust likes me.
If he liked me,
I would be really scared.
Are you OK?
Yes. I'm fine.
Are you sure?
Hello? Someone help me!
I'll be right back.
I'll get help.
- Come quickly!
- What's wrong?
- Someone's fainted.
- Where?
On the steps.
OK.
- Security.
- This is reception.
- Someone's collapsed.
- I'll send someone.
OK. Thanks.
Do you know him?
No. I just saw him fall.
OK.
Hello?
Yes. He's our patient.
We were looking for him.
Can you take him to surgery?
Thank you.
- What are you doing here?
- Visiting Granddad.
I'll take you in.
- How is he?
- A bit better.
OK, Lily?
- Come and see me, Nina.
- OK.
Hi!
I was sure you'd come.
I wasn't.
- What persuaded you?
- Grandma, in her own way.
I can imagine.
She was upset seeing you like this.
She loves you,
but she won't say it.
You only have to ask
and she'll come back.
It's not that simple.
I know.
Have one of these.
Miranda made them.
With love.
Good?
I'm glad you're here.
He'll have been pleased
to see you.
Yes.
- Are you OK?
- No, not really.
What's wrong?
Did you know Granddad
was sleeping with Miranda?
I'm fed up with this family.
- Hold on, Lily.
- Leave her.
Do you think Miranda...
I don't want to talk about it.
Are you OK?
I'll get someone.
It won't leave a scar.
Thanks.
It was just a silly accident.
I'll take you home.
- Put a strip on later?
- Yes. Thanks.
OK. I know you're angry, but...
It's fine. I'm 30, I'm gorgeous.
I can let go.
I love you.
It's not enough.
Sort out your ex,
and then we can talk. OK?
No. I'm not OK with that.
I love you
and I want to live with you.
You just say this out of the blue?
Yes, because I was scared.
Now I know what I want.
Let's start again from scratch.
As if we just met
and I take you out for dinner.
I'd like to have dinner with you.
I don't sleep with people
on a first date.
- I do.
- Not a good start.
- Hello. Mr Perry?
- Yes.
I'm Caroline, the anaesthetist.
- Are you OK?
- Yes.
I'll be there during the operation.
I'll put you under.
And I'll be there when you wake up.
All right?
- Do you have any questions?
- No.
Shall we go?
The fracture is here.
Hold on.
- Caro, see this?
- An aneurism?
It's about to rupture.
Change of plan.
We'll fit a clip
and then deal with the fracture.
OK, Caro?
- Fine.
- OK.
It's his lucky day.
OK?
How do you feel?
My head is spinning.
That's normal.
It will pass.
I'd decided to leave her.
I was running away.
I didn't succeed.
Where will you go
when you leave here?
I'll go to my place.
Well, her place.
Why? I don't understand.
I can't abandon her.
She saved my life.
If we hadn't argued,
I wouldn't be here.
She didn't save your life.
It was chance.
I don't believe in chance.
We're made for each other.
- I'm nothing without her.
- Not true!
Nina, he needs to get some rest.
I had to have one.
I couldn't take it.
What's wrong?
Tomer is going back
to his girlfriend.
- It's his life.
- No.
Nina, you're not his psychiatrist.
You're just his nurse.
Remember that.
Or the hospital will destroy you.
OK.
Temperature is down.
Blood pressure normal.
We can operate on your kidney
and send you home.
He's starting to sound
like a doctor.
Antoine, have you been
to west Africa?
Yes, for a conference.
- In the desert?
- Yes.
The intern got it wrong.
It's non-venereal treponematosis,
not syphilis.
That's something!
But the blood tests...
The symptoms and treatment
are the same, but it's not an STD.
- Shall I tell your wife?
- No. Thank you.
I'll do it myself.
Well done.
Just when I had my chance...
Your job is to help people.
Not to identify diseases
that no-one has ever heard of.
Don't worry, one day soon,
you'll be able to tease the juniors.
But first,
you need to work on your arrogance.
Treponematosis!
Treponematosis!
It's better than syphilis.
- All right, Nina?
- Yes.
Cool.
I'm sorry about Lily.
She didn't see you.
She was upset.
Am I really useless?
No! Sorry.
I didn't mean that.
Honestly, Dorothée.
You really want to be a nurse?
I want it more than anything.
Stop sulking.
You'll get wrinkles.
Finish your drink
and take me out to dinner.
Serious?
One day you'll be a real doctor.
I'm planning ahead.
Great.
- Have a nice evening.
- Not yet.
Sorry.
- Bye.
- Bye.
I never thought Tomer
would go back.
You can't help people
that won't be helped.
You're right.
It's a good day.
Your father will recover.
- Let's drink to that.
- Right.
No!
What can we make
with flour and tinned mackerel?
Couldn't she go shopping?
- Me?
- No. Your grandmother.
Where is she?
- Sleeping.
- Good.
- Does she know about Miranda?
- Know what?
- That she and grandpa...
- No. Lily. Don't start.
Why else was she there at 8 AM?
I've been replaced by...
Very clever!
You clear it up.
Mum!
- Open the door, please?
- No.
- Mum!
- Gloria!
I need my room.
I'm exhausted.
No.
Come on,
we'll all sleep in my room.
Leave it. Come on.
It's like a dorm.
We can tell horror stories.
- Tell us your life story.
- That is a horror story.
Tell us.
Léo!
Goodnight.

Dad, it's my day off.
Nina? It's Miranda,
your father's cleaner.
Yes?
- He's collapsed.
- What?
ACCIDENT AND EMERGENCY
I don't understand it.
He was fine yesterday.
I found him on the floor
this morning.
He wasn't breathing.
- Where did they take him?
- I don't know.
I'll be right back. OK?
He had an angina attack.
His heart was starved of oxygen.
It could be an infarction.
I've given him nitroglycerine.
Good. Can I see him?
HEARTACHE
Dad?
Can you hear me? It's Nina.
If you can hear me, squeeze my hand.
Please.
You can hear me. I felt it.
Nina.
It's good.
It's good you're here.
Get some rest.
I'll see you later.
- He has angina.
- Is it bad?
I don't know.
Fine. Miranda, you can go home now.
Goodbye.
Will you call me?
I promise.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Goodbye.
Stop it.
- If she hadn't been there...
- Luckily she was.
I need some air.
- Hello, Gloria.
- Hello, Costa.
Look after my husband.
Make sure he gets better.
- How is he?
- I don't know.
He seems very weak.
I've never seen him like that.
I'll look after him.
We'll get him back on his feet.
- OK.
- OK?
Come on.
We haven't done his file.
He's staying here.
He needs to be moved
to internal medicine.
He's our patient.
We can't leave Professor Auber
down here.
OK. Take him.
I've got enough problems.
And since you've got room,
you can have another patient.
Hello.
- Take off the cuffs.
- OK.
What is all this?
What's the problem?
There was an argument
going on at home.
His girlfriend was crying.
We brought him in.
You should have brought her.
She refused to come.
He felt ill in the car.
Put him in here.
- Nina.
- I'll be right there.
- Are you OK?
- Yes.
- What are you doing?
- Putting on my lipstick.
He's a professor!
Get out. Off you go!
Room 28 has been ringing
for 15 minutes.
Don't look like that.
I'm feeling better.
If I wasn't...
the former boss of your ex-husband,
they'd have sent me home by now.
Don't talk rubbish!
So, Antoine, what's wrong?
Ah! Mr Proust!
You didn't need to come.
It's just...
a touch of angina.
I'd rather check all the same.
What are you doing?
Trying to work.
Same here.
Let me deal with my patient.
- Your patient?
- Yes. My patient.
Why is he your patient?
- I'm the head of department.
- And we know why.
That's enough!
Stop the cockfighting
and look after my father.
She's quite right.
There's too much ego in here.
Everyone leave.
No. Not you. You stay.
This is a teaching hospital.
Over to the youngster.
But...
Out, please.
- You too, darling.
- What?
- We can't have this!
- We've got no choice.
Since when do we listen
to patients?
He taught us all we know.
Why choose him
when we are the best doctors?
He doesn't always make
the best choices.
He married my mother.
- I'll keep an eye on him.
- Me too.
That's not reassuring me.
You can wait in reception.
OK.
I'm warning you. I can't bear
people who hit women!
I haven't done anything.
Right.
Did she slip on the stairs?
Léo.
Come on!
Come on.
What are you doing?
He hit his girlfriend.
He's our patient.
Is that clear?
- I'm not treating him.
- I'll do it.
It's your day off.
I'm here.
And I need to keep busy.
Get changed.
Thanks.
Look after Professor Auber.
I wouldn't blame him
if he hit his wife.
Do you know what caused
the attack?
No. I'm just the patient.
You're the doctor.
At least you think so.
If you whine like that
when doing examinations,
then I'm not surprised.
Is it OK?
Not really.
We need a blood test and an ECG.
Continue the nitroglycerin.
There you go.
Rest. I'll come back later.
So?
You're living with my daughter?
And your wife.
Thanks for that.
Sorry.
I tried my best but...
it seems she's happier there.
Get changed.
The doctor will examine you.
Could you go?
No. I don't have time.
Take off your shirt.
I'll check your blood pressure.
I'd rather keep it on.
I see half-dressed patients
every day.
I'm keeping my shirt on.
OK?
What's going on?
- Doctor?
- Not now.
If you want to take it out
on someone,
I've got a patient
who likes to hit women.
I like him already.
Are you the shy one?
I don't need to be examined.
Are you a doctor?
- Are you going to force me?
- Yes.
You've got no right.
Are you a lawyer too?
Enough of this.
What happened to you?
- I slipped on the stairs.
- Lie down.
Some bruises are recent.
Some scars are older.
And your nose is running.
I've had a cold for a few days.
Days or weeks?
- Weeks.
- High temperature?
No, just a runny nose.
That's it?
Stupid cops!
She's the one hitting him.
- What do we do?
- Nothing.
He'll go back home
and get hit again.
- No.
- What?
- We'll call social services.
- They'll do nothing.
Will he file a complaint?
No.
We can't do anything.
I'm worried about his cold.
Hold on.
He's getting beaten up
and you're worried about his cold?
Get a sample of his nasal secretion.
Pardon?
OK.
You see, you can do it.
Have you got the results
for your father?
No. Not yet.
I'd like to say he's OK,
but I'm not sure.
I'll do what I can.
Thanks.
- What time do you finish?
- It depends.
I can always get away early.
- Can you put on the siren?
- And go through red lights.
At full speed!
Dorothée!
Put on your gloves:
we need a sample of snot.
Snot? Right now?
No. Christmas.
You can get a coffee.
It'll be a while.
OK. Thanks.
Hold on.
Sorry. No. Nothing.
Well?
Your father is tired, but stable.
I'll look after him.
What about that guy?
He's being hit.
Did he hoodwink you?
No. You should see the bruises!
Shit! I wanted to smash his face!
Too late.
I'm going to see my dad.
You know your mother is here?
- Am I interrupting?
- No.
No. I'm not staying.
He's fallen asleep.
He's tired.
He's never ill.
I leave and now he's in hospital.
This isn't about you.
It is, it's my fault.
I wasn't there when he collapsed.
I forbid you to die.
I won't be a widow.
- I'll be back.
- What is it?
Doctor.
Sorry, it's urgent.
It's Professor Auber.
Excuse me. I'll be right back.
Do a blood test.
- What is it?
- Blood in his urine.
Why are you here?
I asked him to come.
My father is getting worse.
I need you all.
We need an abdominal x-ray
and ultrasound of his kidneys.
The angina and kidney problem
are related.
- An infection?
- Protein C is high.
- And leucocytes.
- We'll check for infections.
I'll do it.
In the meantime, put him
on broad-spectrum antibiotics.
Nothing to add.
We'll talk again
when we have the results.
I'll... I'll go.
You never trusted me.
I always trusted you.
It didn't work.
Don't move.
There. It isn't very pleasant.
Baby!
- How are you, darling?
- I'm OK.
How is he?
I don't know.
I'm not a doctor.
Don't worry. I'm fine.
Don't mind me.
I've got what I need.
- Could we be alone?
- Yes.
Who's that tart?
What?
Don't start with me.
She's a nurse.
I don't know her.
See the look she gave me?
Let's not have an argument.
Please.
OK?
If you leave me, I'll kill you.
What are you doing?
Visiting my boyfriend.
He can't have visitors.
- Surely I can...
- You have to leave.
Don't speak to me like that.
Are you going to hit me?
I swear I...
Don't bother.
Tell the police
you're not filing a complaint.
Happy now?
You can do what you like.
But you're my patient
and I have to look after you.
She's not bad.
"Not bad"?
Young, gorgeous and a doctor.
I'll never forgive him.
We're not the first to divorce.
It's the marriage
that makes me cross.
You could've been a doctor.
You can always get a husband.
But a career...
I don't want to talk about it.
Your father will recover.
Why did you leave him?
I don't know.
Since retiring, I've felt useless.
I couldn't just stay at home.
I needed a change.
What does Dad say?
I don't know.
He's not very talkative.
I know.
Sorry. I'll see you later.
It isn't snot up your nose.
It's cerebrospinal fluid.
What?
From your brain.
Coming from a hole
at the base of your skull.
Let me guess.
Did she hit you with the spanner
or the candlestick?
OK. We argued. That's it.
I pushed her too far.
She was defending herself.
She's a great girl.
She fractured your skull.
You need to have an MRI
as a matter of urgency,
before your brain falls out.
Do a blood test.
- I don't want an MRI.
- Why not?
You'll report her.
No. We can't do anything,
unfortunately.
You have to do it.
Can you see me going to the cops?
A guy who gets beaten up
by a girl. They'Il laugh.
No. No-one will laugh.
It's your life. It's unbearable.
You can't put up with it.
Nina.
Your dad is having his scan.
OK. On my way.
I can't believe she hits him.
You should have seen her.
She looked in love.
She was horrid to you.
- Girls never like me.
- Really?
Nina, can I speak to you?
Yes.
We've got the results.
There's a gumma.
What?
A nodule in his kidney.
- We can operate, but...
- What?
The gumma
is the result of an infection.
What infection?
- We've done an analysis...
- Tell me!
Your father has syphilis. I...
No way.
Nina, I'm sorry.
It's syphilis.
It's quite advanced.
It's not an STD.
He's never cheated on my mother.
Once is enough.
We'll start him
on stronger antibiotics.
We'll check if any other organs
are affected.
- Speak to Gloria.
- What?
- She'll have to have a blood test.
- Why me?
She's your mother.
You're the doctor.
When it suits you.
I'll go and see Professor...
Do I need a blood test?
- Once is enough?
- Listen...
Stop it!
Enough excuses.
I just need to know
if I need screening.
No. I promise you.
I never took any risks.
OK.
Bad day?
Need to talk to a professional?
It's fine. Thanks.
I just have to tell my mother
my father has syphilis.
Is that all?
I thought it was something serious.
You don't have to deal
with all this alone.
It's the only way I know.
- Aren't you getting out?
- Yes. Sorry.
See you later.
It's ridiculous. Your father spent
his time on books and patients.
He never had time to play around.
And he's not exactly athletic.
Mum!
Syphilis? No way!
I know it's embarrassing,
but face it.
I'm not easily deceived.
Redo the tests. You'll see.
Call surgery to book him
in for tomorrow.
So he's got a hole in his skull,
but also other fractures
around his face.
- She's been hitting him for months?
- It's gone too far.
Hello. Can my boyfriend
come home tonight?
I'll handle it.
Let me go! Are you crazy?
Yes, I'm nuts.
I'd like to break your arm.
But I wouldn't enjoy it.
You nearly killed him.
Get out.
And don't come back.
OK?
My father's a lawyer.
He'll have you fired.
- Get lost.
- You'll be hearing from me.
Whatever.
- Léo?
- Leave me alone.
Sorry.
I didn't mean to scare you.
Get out, Nina.
- What are those scars?
- Forget it.
- Go away!
- OK. Sorry.
Are you OK?
No, I'm not.
My father is dying
and my mother is winding me up.
He's not dying.
How do you know?
I won't let him.
He won't leave you alone
with your mother.
He's responding to treatment.
He's tired, but he's a fighter.
Hey!
- Léo has done it.
- I know.
I'm staying tonight.
You should go home.
It is your day off.
I'd rather be here.
OK.
Call me if you need me.
- Nadine?
- Yes?
Why don't you go home?
This is my home.
Dad.
Please don't leave me.
All right?
Smile.
Smile, Nina.
It's not time yet.
Or...
I'd tell you how much I love you.
How happy I am to have you.
And how proud I am
of the person you've become.
I can't come home.
Granddad needs me.
Grandma is here.
No need to call social services.
Are you OK, Mum?
Yes, don't worry about me.
- I love you to the moon.
- Me too.
Bye.
Come home. I love you.
I know you think badly of me.
Not at all.
I'm too tired.
Have you ever loved someone
who wasn't good for you?
Yes.
One day I realised I had
to love myself more than him.
And I left.
Come on.
See that?
And there too.
You have half a dozen fractures.
It's a miracle you're still alive.
Shall I go on?
No, don't.
Do you have parents?
Yes.
Do they love you?
I think so.
She's all I have.
I know you're right but...
I don't have the courage to leave.
Nina.
Nina.
You should take a shower.
The day team will start soon.
- Are you OK?
- I'm fine. You?
I'm worried about Granddad.
- Are you going to see him?
- No!
It's too depressing to see him.
But he needs you.
You're like all doctors.
You can't deal with sick people.
Are you brave enough to go?
What's going on?
Nothing.
I had a row with Lily.
Well... She had a row with me.
Miranda?
I rang.
I'd brought clean clothes.
We were talking
and now I can't wake him.
Dad?
- Can you hear me?
- What is it?
He's unconscious.
He has hypertension.
40 mg of furosemide.
OK.
- Will he be OK?
- Yes.
Stay here.
I'll get Antonakis.
Well?
I don't know.
We've given him antibiotics,
and he's getting worse.
- Hold on.
- Save him.
- We'll do all we can.
You have to save him.
Hi.
What are you doing?
Isn't that what friends do?
Friends talk to each other.
You tell me nothing.
I saw your scars.
Forget you saw them.
As you wish.
I have to take a patient
to surgery.
Mr Perry?
Tomer, are you there?
- Where is he?
- Who?
- The patient in room 15.
- I haven't seen him.
You're useless.
- Can I talk to you?
- No, I'm busy.
- Dr Proust, sorry...
- I'm not interested.
Hold on!
I might have an idea.
You might have an idea?
I've got an idea.
I'm listening.
- I think...
- You're not here to think.
What's your diagnosis?
It's a Herxheimer reaction.
The penicillin led
to the release of an exotoxin
secreted by the Treponema.
He's right.
The treatment is working,
but the toxins
are attacking your body.
At this rate, you'll die cured.
What do we do?
Stop the antibiotics.
Continue with the aspirin.
Once he's stable,
we can operate on the kidney.
We'll make a doctor of you yet.
Stop the penicillin. OK?
Tell Antonakis before he claims
he's in charge.
He's an idiot, but he likes you.
I think Proust likes me.
If he liked me,
I would be really scared.
Are you OK?
Yes. I'm fine.
Are you sure?
Hello? Someone help me!
I'll be right back.
I'll get help.
- Come quickly!
- What's wrong?
- Someone's fainted.
- Where?
On the steps.
OK.
- Security.
- This is reception.
- Someone's collapsed.
- I'll send someone.
OK. Thanks.
Do you know him?
No. I just saw him fall.
OK.
Hello?
Yes. He's our patient.
We were looking for him.
Can you take him to surgery?
Thank you.
- What are you doing here?
- Visiting Granddad.
I'll take you in.
- How is he?
- A bit better.
OK, Lily?
- Come and see me, Nina.
- OK.
Hi!
I was sure you'd come.
I wasn't.
- What persuaded you?
- Grandma, in her own way.
I can imagine.
She was upset seeing you like this.
She loves you,
but she won't say it.
You only have to ask
and she'll come back.
It's not that simple.
I know.
Have one of these.
Miranda made them.
With love.
Good?
I'm glad you're here.
He'll have been pleased
to see you.
Yes.
- Are you OK?
- No, not really.
What's wrong?
Did you know Granddad
was sleeping with Miranda?
I'm fed up with this family.
- Hold on, Lily.
- Leave her.
Do you think Miranda...
I don't want to talk about it.
Are you OK?
I'll get someone.
It won't leave a scar.
Thanks.
It was just a silly accident.
I'll take you home.
- Put a strip on later?
- Yes. Thanks.
OK. I know you're angry, but...
It's fine. I'm 30, I'm gorgeous.
I can let go.
I love you.
It's not enough.
Sort out your ex,
and then we can talk. OK?
No. I'm not OK with that.
I love you
and I want to live with you.
You just say this out of the blue?
Yes, because I was scared.
Now I know what I want.
Let's start again from scratch.
As if we just met
and I take you out for dinner.
I'd like to have dinner with you.
I don't sleep with people
on a first date.
- I do.
- Not a good start.
- Hello. Mr Perry?
- Yes.
I'm Caroline, the anaesthetist.
- Are you OK?
- Yes.
I'll be there during the operation.
I'll put you under.
And I'll be there when you wake up.
All right?
- Do you have any questions?
- No.
Shall we go?
The fracture is here.
Hold on.
- Caro, see this?
- An aneurism?
It's about to rupture.
Change of plan.
We'll fit a clip
and then deal with the fracture.
OK, Caro?
- Fine.
- OK.
It's his lucky day.
OK?
How do you feel?
My head is spinning.
That's normal.
It will pass.
I'd decided to leave her.
I was running away.
I didn't succeed.
Where will you go
when you leave here?
I'll go to my place.
Well, her place.
Why? I don't understand.
I can't abandon her.
She saved my life.
If we hadn't argued,
I wouldn't be here.
She didn't save your life.
It was chance.
I don't believe in chance.
We're made for each other.
- I'm nothing without her.
- Not true!
Nina, he needs to get some rest.
I had to have one.
I couldn't take it.
What's wrong?
Tomer is going back
to his girlfriend.
- It's his life.
- No.
Nina, you're not his psychiatrist.
You're just his nurse.
Remember that.
Or the hospital will destroy you.
OK.
Temperature is down.
Blood pressure normal.
We can operate on your kidney
and send you home.
He's starting to sound
like a doctor.
Antoine, have you been
to west Africa?
Yes, for a conference.
- In the desert?
- Yes.
The intern got it wrong.
It's non-venereal treponematosis,
not syphilis.
That's something!
But the blood tests...
The symptoms and treatment
are the same, but it's not an STD.
- Shall I tell your wife?
- No. Thank you.
I'll do it myself.
Well done.
Just when I had my chance...
Your job is to help people.
Not to identify diseases
that no-one has ever heard of.
Don't worry, one day soon,
you'll be able to tease the juniors.
But first,
you need to work on your arrogance.
Treponematosis!
Treponematosis!
It's better than syphilis.
- All right, Nina?
- Yes.
Cool.
I'm sorry about Lily.
She didn't see you.
She was upset.
Am I really useless?
No! Sorry.
I didn't mean that.
Honestly, Dorothée.
You really want to be a nurse?
I want it more than anything.
Stop sulking.
You'll get wrinkles.
Finish your drink
and take me out to dinner.
Serious?
One day you'll be a real doctor.
I'm planning ahead.
Great.
- Have a nice evening.
- Not yet.
Sorry.
- Bye.
- Bye.
I never thought Tomer
would go back.
You can't help people
that won't be helped.
You're right.
It's a good day.
Your father will recover.
- Let's drink to that.
- Right.
No!
What can we make
with flour and tinned mackerel?
Couldn't she go shopping?
- Me?
- No. Your grandmother.
Where is she?
- Sleeping.
- Good.
- Does she know about Miranda?
- Know what?
- That she and grandpa...
- No. Lily. Don't start.
Why else was she there at 8 AM?
I've been replaced by...
Very clever!
You clear it up.
Mum!
- Open the door, please?
- No.
- Mum!
- Gloria!
I need my room.
I'm exhausted.
No.
Come on,
we'll all sleep in my room.
Leave it. Come on.
It's like a dorm.
We can tell horror stories.
- Tell us your life story.
- That is a horror story.
Tell us.
Léo!
Goodnight.
