00:00Previously on Shortland Street.
00:02I'm going to turn myself in to the medical council without the fort.
00:04I'm not going to let you lose your job.
00:06Is that really what you think I'm worried about?
00:08This is Julianne Jonas, Shortland Street's biggest tree holder.
00:11You don't have to play these games.
00:14Why not? I'm winning.
00:16He's letting you win.
00:17Go home.
00:20It looks like she had a recent strep A infection.
00:22Rheumatic fever.
00:23I'm sorry when she was born.
00:24I should have called to let you know you had a grandchild.
00:26But I'm not sorry for everything.
00:29Stop it!
00:30Ow!
00:31Your chest.
00:32Just breathe nice and slow for me, sweetheart, alright?
00:38Well, we've done an ECG and a few other tests.
00:40Yeah, we don't need all that.
00:41Just give us the results.
00:43It's myocarditis.
00:45She's too little for that.
00:47It's a complication of acute rheumatic fever.
00:50Yeah, I know.
00:51What are you giving him?
00:52Methylpregnisolone.
00:54And then you'll reassess.
00:55I will.
00:56The whole team is all over this, so please, try not to worry.
01:00Any more questions?
01:01No.
01:02Just let her rest for now.
01:04She'll be monitored closely tonight.
01:11I should have brought her in sooner.
01:13Hey, none of that.
01:14You know that I should have.
01:15Nazza is the head of paediatrics.
01:17If he's not panicking, neither am I.
01:20Go on.
01:21You go and get some rest.
01:23Are you going?
01:24Yeah, I'm not a doctor.
01:25I'll just be in the way.
01:27Okay.
01:28I'll see you.
01:39What were you being a pain in the butt?
01:42Why would you say that?
01:43Because I know you.
01:46But do you know Nicole?
01:47Yes, thank you, darling.
01:48Okay, night-night.
01:49Ka kite.
01:50Ka kite.
01:52Turns out our lifelong friend might be a little bit erasist.
01:55She's not.
01:56Te reo Maori is a waste of time.
01:59She did not say that.
02:00She may as well have.
02:01Look, she's been through a lot in a really short space of time.
02:04Her normal is off.
02:05She's not herself.
02:06That's for sure.
02:07Look, Nick just needs a lot of care right now.
02:09Oh, I know.
02:11And so do you.
02:13So I am checking in.
02:15Fine.
02:16How are you feeling?
02:17You a bit sad, a bit meh?
02:20I'm focused on trying to do a good thing for the nation.
02:25And you're giving me the third degree.
02:26Okay, I'm sorry.
02:27You were right the first time.
02:29About what?
02:30It doesn't matter what was going on.
02:31Nicole should not have said what she said.
02:38I don't believe you.
02:40Ring my mother.
02:41Here.
02:42I'm not going to call your mother.
02:44Look, I was at the pā kaitore protest.
02:46It's true.
02:47How old were you?
02:49Fourteen.
02:51I don't get you.
02:52What do you mean?
02:53You've forgotten who you are.
02:55Just because I believe in self-determination.
02:59Look, I have high expectations for Te Iwi Māori.
03:02Do you?
03:03Of course I do.
03:04Whatever we want to do, achieve, we can't do on our own.
03:09So you're power hungry?
03:11I prefer ambitious.
03:14Right.
03:16How many of us are there now?
03:19Two.
03:21No, multi-population.
03:24About 978,000.
03:27On the entire planet?
03:28Not enough.
03:29I don't think so.
03:31So what's wrong with a bit of power?
03:34Yes?
03:36Shhh, Esther.
03:37You're so loud.
03:39I didn't mean to wake you.
03:43Hey.
03:45You don't have to go.
03:46Reba's here.
03:47Night, Esther.
03:49Night, Martin.
03:50Night.
03:56So how was the do?
03:58Um, a bit boring, really.
04:01Well, Kiwa wants his cast off, I had to talk him down.
04:05He's worried about his book review tomorrow, I tried to help him, but it's in Te Reo, so.
04:09I all saw that.
04:11Esther.
04:12No, I'm going to go to bed, I've got a early start.
04:18Bye.
04:26So what's wrong with saying kia ora?
04:28Nothing.
04:29Use it with your friends and family, all you like.
04:31Kia ora.
04:32Towel's here.
04:33Number, please.
04:34Do you know about Dame Nida Glevish?
04:35Of course I do.
04:37So did she battle it out for nothing?
04:38That was like 30 years ago.
04:3940.
04:4040 years ago.
04:42People don't call a hospital for a chat.
04:44They need help.
04:45Immediately.
04:46We're losing valuable time.
04:47And time is money.
04:48Time saves lives.
04:50Ask a stroke victim.
04:51Someone having a cardiac arrest.
04:54My turn for a question.
04:55For me?
04:57The closure of the Maori and Pasifika clinic.
04:59What about it?
05:01I heard there was some resistance amongst the troops.
05:03Is that true?
05:04I'm based in Edea, it's not really my place.
05:06Yeah, who even cares about the MPC anyway?
05:08I mean, no one misses it, what are they even doing there all day anyway?
05:17Dr Warner?
05:18I'm in Edea.
05:19No opinion?
05:21Not really.
05:22You all understand why we had shut it down?
05:24Uh-huh.
05:26Race-based care is racist.
05:29We can all agree, surely.
05:31The clinic is shut down, so why does it really matter what we think?
05:40Tough crowd.
05:42You're an outsider, making drastic decisions.
05:44What do you expect?
05:46Less hostility?
05:48Eh, I didn't see any.
05:50You're loyal to them, aren't you?
05:53Our staff work very hard to ensure the best possible patient care.
05:57Right.
05:58The party line.
06:00Have you decided on job cuts?
06:02They're still on the table.
06:15It was like that yesterday.
06:24You wanted war?
06:26I'm in.
06:28Really?
06:29Let's do this.
06:33Much better than I thought it was going to be, actually.
06:35Yeah?
06:36All thanks to Esther.
06:38She seriously impressed my board.
06:40Right.
06:42What were we meeting on this morning?
06:44We had a great idea.
06:45Okay.
06:46Buy the Brain app off Boyd Chakraborty.
06:49And turn a profit on it.
06:51Boyd is going to know that you're wanting to sell the copyright of his app.
06:54That's what you're wanting to do, right?
06:55So don't tell him.
06:57He'll figure it out. He's not going to sell.
06:58Find a way to make it work.
07:00Trust Esther. She's my long-termer.
07:02Your what?
07:03I've got big plans for Dr Samuels.
07:05She's too good to just languish here in Ferndale.
07:08So whatever's going on for you, get over it.
07:15Tō piwari te kōhati.
07:18Ae, mauiwi hoki.
07:20Yeah, bronchiolitis?
07:22I ran it past Nazar.
07:24He's the head of paediatrics.
07:26Well, this treatment plan looks correct to me.
07:29Yeah?
07:30I'm so sorry.
07:32No, no, no. You wanted the best.
07:34You got the best.
07:36Me hoki atua ki te mahi.
07:38Ae, haere.
07:39Where's Papa?
07:41He's just working 24-7, but he'll be in at some point.
07:44Well, that'll make things easier, won't it?
07:47Of course.
07:49Hei, kōnā te kōhati.
07:56Hey, thanks for taking the time.
07:59Don't do that again.
08:01Sorry?
08:02You didn't need me for that consult.
08:04Well, I just wanted to see my wife.
08:06Because I miss her.
08:08Mare.
08:09I just want us to go back to normal.
08:11Come on, how long are you going to keep shutting me out?
08:14It's bad.
08:18Okay.
08:24Sorry to interrupt, Māria.
08:26Did you want me to call someone?
08:28No, I'm fine. Just ignore me.
08:30Okay. Well, we are doing everything we can for te kōhati.
08:33That's not that.
08:35Then what?
08:38I haven't told anyone yet, but we broke up.
08:41Te kōhati's father and I.
08:45I want a trace of it.
08:49Do you want to shorten to your hospital? How can I help?
08:51Sure, I'm putting you through now.
08:53Have you heard from Miss Clark? Is she all right?
08:56Broken leg? You brought her in yesterday?
08:58Surgery's done.
09:08It's you, isn't it?
09:10I'm sorry?
09:12Doing all this. Getting everyone going.
09:14Who, me? I don't know what you're talking about.
09:16I'm pretty busy doing my work.
09:18No, come off it.
09:20Chip, do you know what she's talking about?
09:27Who authorized that?
09:39What is your mission?
09:41I am so sorry. I don't know what that is.
09:42I will talk to Esther.
09:44No, your mission.
09:46To execute the shareholder's wishes.
09:48Why?
09:49Because we need strong leadership and one single vision
09:51so the staff can feel secure under the threat of budget cuts.
09:53Yes, and you're supposed to bring everyone into line.
09:55Esther's the CEO.
09:57And you're the hatchet man.
09:59You're supposed to sweep in and do all that for her.
10:01At least you want me to find someone else.
10:03Someone turn that damn thing off!
10:16But I'll make you better if you say...
10:18Koro.
10:21Hmm?
10:23Why did you call Nana Angel?
10:25Nobody else calls her that.
10:28Well, you heard that.
10:30How come?
10:32Doesn't matter.
10:34Can you tell me, please?
10:36I'll think about it.
10:39Now, time for you to sleep, eh?
10:41What will I do?
10:45Come on, you get nice and warm here.
10:47There's people.
10:53Hi.
10:55Luke.
10:57You were cutting me ahead a rough night last night.
10:59I've changed your medications and that should help.
11:00Good.
11:02And I'll get her nurse to run some more rubs.
11:04In fact, I'll do that now.
11:07You scared him off.
11:09No.
11:11No, he's got work to do.
11:14Well, I'm glad she's resting.
11:16What are you even doing here?
11:18Like you said, you're not her doctor
11:20and you're not really her grandfather either.
11:22I am.
11:24You can't just have one foot in with kids.
11:26This girl needs stability.
11:28I know.
11:30She needs unconditional love, real love
11:32from family that can actually say it to her out loud.
11:35Is that you?
11:37I came here because I promised her a story.
11:40Okay.
11:42And that's done?
11:44I also wanted to make sure she was okay.
11:46As you can see, she's just fine.
11:51G.E.'s worried about Monique
11:53listening in on our clinic meetings.
11:55I'd better be on high alert then.
11:57Even though it's semi-legitimate?
11:58Yep.
12:00Okay, a priority clinic review.
12:02Everyone got their listening ears on?
12:04Yep.
12:06All right, untreated gallstones.
12:08Mr. Latele, Chris's recommendation
12:10is removal of the gallbladder.
12:12Book him in, Nick.
12:14What's the tally?
12:16ED's in the lead.
12:18What's this?
12:20Video challenge.
12:22Can we just leave that for a sec?
12:24Pay attention, Sage.
12:26Now, Mrs. Winiaka?
12:28What was it?
12:30Untreated leg infection.
12:32Antibiotics aren't working.
12:34Debridement sounds like the way to go there.
12:36Book her in, Nick.
12:38Have you tried it on Hapa yet?
12:40Wait, tried what?
12:42The romantic phrase?
12:44Go on, get some points up.
12:46Theatre five is real Monday,
12:48but we don't have any theatre nurses.
12:50Oh, Hapa!
12:52Cool, is that meeting adjourned then?
12:54Ko koe te tau o takawate.
12:56I am.
12:58Then what, you get extra points in the challenge?
13:00Help a guy out.
13:02Say it back, Hapa.
13:04Am I just going to do all the work myself?
13:06My reo is a bit frisky.
13:08Go on, it's so romantic.
13:10Guys, I'm busy.
13:12Hey, what's up?
13:14Nothing.
13:16We're just having a bit of fun.
13:18You're driving Nicole insane again.
13:20This time last year you were on at me
13:22to get my te reo up to scratch
13:24and now you're what, not interested?
13:26Yeah, I'm sorry.
13:29Sorry.
13:31Was that Te Kaha Tu's dad?
13:33Yeah, I can't see him right now.
13:35It's just too complicated.
13:37Well, I'm sure there's a lot to untangle.
13:39That's exactly it.
13:41Hey, buddy.
13:43No, no, look, stop crying just like that.
13:45Well, the good news is
13:47Te Kaha Tu is going to be discharged.
13:49So, we're going home?
13:51Yeah, how are you feeling about that?
13:53He seems like himself.
13:55Yeah, he does.
13:56There's sushi around you.
13:58What's your secret?
14:00Just try and stay calm,
14:02even though everything's chaotic.
14:04You got that right.
14:06No, sorry, I didn't mean you.
14:08Who did you mean?
14:10Oh, you don't have to tell me.
14:12I shouldn't have been nosy like that.
14:14Sorry.
14:16But if you did want to unload,
14:18I can listen.
14:20No, no, I couldn't do that to you.
14:22But I'm here if you want to talk about anything, OK?
14:24How long you got?
14:26Well,
14:28I thought we were soulmates,
14:30that, um,
14:32that we were perfect together.
14:34But after I gave birth,
14:36things just shifted.
14:38I realised things
14:40that I didn't know about him before
14:42and they kept coming up
14:44in the way that he talked to me
14:46and to our son.
14:48He was so dismissive
14:50and I just,
14:52I couldn't stay with him anymore.
14:54But
14:56now he's sundown.
15:01You think I'm mean to Emily?
15:03Sure he deserves that.
15:05Well, I wasn't always like this.
15:07What?
15:09Nothing, I'm just, just nosy.
15:11Oh, you can ask.
15:13I, I just,
15:15you two are so different.
15:17How did you meet?
15:19If I told you, you wouldn't believe me.
15:21I promise I'll believe every word.
15:23Oh, this is so embarrassing.
15:24Okay,
15:261991, Eden Park.
15:28Springbok Tour.
15:30The protests.
15:32Yep.
15:34What song was Emmet on?
15:36What do you think?
15:38Oh, gross.
15:40Let me guess, you just wanted to watch the rugby?
15:42Not as fun as this moment, no.
15:44How did you get over that?
15:46I could never be with someone who...
15:48What, someone who thought that a game of rugby
15:50was more important than human rights?
15:52Yeah, nah, me neither.
15:54I was too young.
15:56Anyway, I, um,
15:58I saw him running
16:00and I thought,
16:02oh, look at this idiot.
16:04Yeah.
16:06Anyway, he got closer
16:08and he was jumping over a fence one way
16:10and I was jumping the other
16:12and he fell over
16:14and knocked himself out.
16:16And, um,
16:18well, I couldn't just leave him there, could I?
16:20Although sometimes I think I should have.
16:22Keep talking.
16:24Mm.
16:26What do you mean, hacked?
16:28Somebody got into our public address system.
16:30We don't know.
16:32Well, you need to find out.
16:34I know.
16:36And, sorry, can you please just stop
16:38with this tutorial challenge?
16:40To be honest, I don't ever think Julian cares.
16:42He does, OK? English only.
16:44Those are his rules.
16:46OK, you are so right.
16:48Take it down.
16:49I was more concerned with cash flow,
16:51but you're working on that, right?
16:53Yes, I spoke to Boyd.
16:55He is not selling brain.
16:57Give it a nudge.
16:59Look, you know Boyd, he's not going to budge.
17:01Isn't he?
17:03Unless you're setting me up to fail again.
17:05No, we're on the same side here.
17:07It doesn't feel like it.
17:09Just talk to the other shareholders on the board.
17:11They love the app.
17:13He's not selling.
17:15Talk him round. Come on, Mum.
17:17Look, there must be another way to cut costs.
17:19What do you mean, growth?
17:21Using existing resources to produce more resources.
17:23Am I speaking the right language?
17:25Better than I ever could.
17:27I'm just wanting to make sure we're functioning
17:29with integrity and transparency.
17:31We want the same things.
17:33Oh, I'll just go do what I'm told, shall I?
17:44This place is a mess without an operations manager.
17:46What's wrong?
17:47There's stacks all over the show,
17:49files placed in random places.
17:51Cleaning up files?
17:53That sounds like a job for a PA.
17:55How many times have I told you I'm not Julian's PA?
17:57I know, I know.
17:59Sorry.
18:04Give me a break.
18:06Apparently someone hacked the system.
18:08And Esther doesn't know anything about it?
18:10Well, I don't think she'd lie about that.
18:12OK.
18:14Look, Mon, I know things are messy right now,
18:15but I'm just trying to help.
18:17Look, Marty, I know love is blind.
18:19Could you please just open your eyes?
18:21What?
18:23Nothing.
18:25No, come on, tell me.
18:27Did you go to the fundraiser last night?
18:29I wasn't invited.
18:31OK, well, next time get an invite.
18:33Or gate crash.
18:35I'm not exactly your number one fan right now,
18:37but I do know that you were in Esther's dog box,
18:39and my advice would be to get out of there quick.
18:42I am trying.
18:46Sage!
18:48Got any words for honesty and integrity?
18:51Oh, hold the line, please.
18:53Just leave it, Sage.
18:55What? She asked the question.
18:57OK, well, when you find them, just send them off to Esther.
18:59As a wee reminder.
19:01Oh, no, don't put me in the middle of whatever that is.
19:03What's wrong with you?
19:05She is playing lovey-dovey to my face,
19:07but I know she's setting me up.
19:09It's Julian's mandates.
19:11They're divisive.
19:13Look, some people agree with them.
19:15It's a terrible justification for anyone.
19:17OK, I didn't know you were a professor of politics.
19:20Esther's a good person.
19:22Remember that.
19:24Just let her be.
19:26Yeah, whatever.
19:28Can she clear a room, like I did just then?
19:30No, she can't.
19:32It's a superpower.
19:34Why was it so hard to say in front of other people?
19:37You just caught me off guard.
19:39We've been affectionate in front of people at work before.
19:41It's not so strange.
19:43I know, it's just...
19:45I won't do it again.
19:47I will try and pull it back, too.
19:49No, no, don't stop.
19:51What did you just say to me?
19:53You heard me.
19:55You're racist, and I'm going to tell everyone who will listen.
19:57You called me down here for this?
19:59That little kid broke his arm.
20:01It's his birthday.
20:03I said, and Monique tells me off.
20:05That kid isn't even Māori.
20:07So he sort of lives in Aotearoa.
20:09It was racist from a racist.
20:11Can everyone get back to work, please?
20:13Esther?
20:15You didn't correct him.
20:17I don't have time for this.
20:19What do you want me to do?
20:21You want me to report it to Amber Services?
20:23Tell him who I am.
20:25You signed up for your job, you can deal with the consequences.
20:32I just wanted to watch the rugby.
20:34You did know why the protests were there, though, right?
20:37Would I do the same thing again?
20:39Probably not.
20:41Trust you to be on the wrong side of history.
20:42He was lying there, in the gutter, out of it.
20:45And he opens his eyes, and he sees her, and he says,
20:48Angel.
20:50And get this, her name is Anahita.
20:52Wait, get what?
20:54Anahita means angel.
20:57Story time is over.
20:59But it's such a good story.
21:01It's ancient history.
21:03That both of you guys remember every second of.
21:05Just drop it.
21:07Dropped.
21:09She doesn't want me out, did you?
21:12I know what's missing.
21:14Oh, you don't know what it is.
21:22For you?
21:24Oh, you didn't have to do that.
21:26I got them for free, from your kiff.
21:28Had to make the order in te reo Maori.
21:30They're wiki fever.
21:32So it's not coming out of your wallet?
21:34No.
21:36Some random do-gooder?
21:38Yep.
21:40You can't stop the people, can't stop the revolution.
21:42Next week, I'm sure everything will calm down.
21:45You think I care about a cup of coffee?
21:47Or someone saying kia ora on the phone?
21:49You seem to.
21:51I care about keeping the rest of my shareholders happy.
21:54I understand that.
21:56Pākehā.
21:58Māori.
22:00The same rules, the same expectations.
22:02I believe in that too.
22:04No you don't.
22:06I'm sorry?
22:08You've been playing me this whole time.
22:09I thought I was clever, but you?
22:11You're another level.
22:13I don't get it.
22:15I know all about your dodgy priority clinic,
22:17led by Chris Warner,
22:19Gia Te Atakura,
22:21and who signed it off?
22:24The CEO.
22:26Well, that clinic is operating within guidelines.
22:29The only patients are Māori and P.I.
22:31It's a direct violation of almost everything we've agreed upon.
22:35Do you really think I wouldn't notice?
22:36Saying all the right things at the right time.
22:39So what are you going to do?
22:41I'm going to level with you.
22:43You and your staff have been flagged as troublemakers.
22:46My staff have gone out of their way to help people.
22:49Misguided virtue signalling.
22:51They volunteer their time,
22:53filling the gap that the NPC left.
22:55How long do you think they could sustain that?
22:57How long before burnout?
22:59It's my staff's responsibility.
23:01I've done my homework.
23:03Your model is unsustainable.
23:05OK, so let's work through that
23:07and find a way to make it sustainable.
23:09Over a drink?
23:11You can't bleach way out of this one.
23:13You're smart.
23:15And so am I.
23:18Shut that clinic down. Immediately.
