Do you already know Walpole?
No, we are now making the acquaintance.
I do not meet big men. I know
only Stevens from St Anne.
Now you are sir Colenso.
How does that feel?
First a little crazy.
Do not mind.
I do not know what you have discovered,
but I congratulate you anyway.
You were so scientifically oriented.
Earlier, yes. Now look at it.
I have not looked at a book since my
graduation. They are so expensive.
But I have clinical experience, that's
what it's all about, is not it?
Nonsense. Then you see the outside,
there is nothing wrong with that.
You have to look at the inside every day.
That is only possible with the knife.
You have easy talk,
look at my practice.
I only see workers,
clerks and servants.
They can not afford illness.
I am so poor myself that I
get sick from the bad food.
How do I gain self-confidence?
I can not hear it.
There is nothing more
tragic than a sick doctor.
As if a bald head sells wigs.
Fortunately I am a surgeon.
I have never been ill, that is
why I live with my patients.
Never get sick? Interesting.
You may not have a nuciform sac.
Can not I just open
you to have a look?
I'm too busy for that.
I recommend pounding a pound every
day for half an hour before lunch.
They are definitely good
and they are cheap.
Be sensible of being against medication.
They are a delusion.
The newspapers are full of
outrageous advertisements.
All quackery and poison.
And we are responsible.
We let them believe in drinks.
They do not get a doctor anymore.
Nature is the only true remedy.
In the white blood cells...
or phagocytes is a system that
eats and destroys bacteria.
There is only one
scientific remedy...
and that is stimulating
phagocytes.
Your car makes the horses of Sir
Ralph scared, so you come quickly.
I have to go.
Pleasant introduction.
- Do you agree with me?
- No.
Only the knife can prevent
rotting and blood poisoning.
He has no intellect,
he is a surgeon.
Operation is manual work.
The brain remains the master.
That nuciform sac does not exist. It
is nice for him to operate in fashion.
Do not worry about your health.
Take a sedative.
And otherwise some
mercury can not hurt.
If you can not sleep: Trional.
- But no medicine, remember.
No, not as a definitive solution.
See you, Blenkinsop.
There is only one solution:
Stimulate the phagocytes.
Who is the patient by the way?
Is it still there?
Your woman is waiting in the carriage.
Tell that woman I will not receive her.
Understood?
She is not in a hurry, she is waiting.
I must go too. Not working every
half hour costs me 18 pence.
Come and have lunch.
That's too expensive.
Then I do not get my own
food away, but thanks.
Poor guy.
We are not all
geniuses like you.
Bloomfield Bonington may
allow fewer people to die.
He needs to know the difference
between a vaccine and an antidote.
With his phagocytes. With him, the
serum is simply a murder weapon.
Colly has to work again.
What are you doing, old cake?
Do not be cheeky.
Behave yourself.
I have taught you to behave.
Come on now.
Bye. Goodbye, thanks for coming.
You are an ugly old witch.
As if you are so beautiful.
What a ways. Do you let
that poor girl come or not?
For the umpteenth time: No.
Send her away.
Do me a favor. Good, boy.
I got half a crown. She says her
husband is threatened with death.
Is not his life worth more than?
She does not have anymore.
She will please you.
It is a charming thing.
Then let it come.
A patient is coming. Come in after
a while with an emergency message.
Then she knows she has to go.
Mrs Dubedat.
Wait. You must know that I
can not do anything for you.
You did not wish to be sent away.
How could I?
You bribed her.
Anyway, she got me that far.
I am unable to take
another patient.
You must visit my husband.
I explain everything, then you understand.
It is not an ordinary case.
He is unique, I can prove that to you.
The newspaper says
that you can save him.
- What is it?
- His left lung.
You do not have to tell that.
You can heal him. That's right?
Tell me.
You must remain quiet and controlled.
Excuse me, I know.
Please tell me you are healing him.
You have to be elsewhere
for miracle remedies.
I have ten patients that
I can possibly save.
Wait a second.
Imagine that they are on a
raft where no one can anymore.
A drowning man appears, who
begs the captain for salvation.
This is only possible if someone
else is sacrificed for it.
You ask me that now.
Is there another doctor who can?
Only doctors live on this street.
But only a handful has eaten
cheese from the opsonin treatment.
We are completely full.
More I do not have to say to you.
You know about drawings, I saw
that in the waiting room.
- Look.
- That's no use.
That is good work.
That's all right.
This has not been finished yet, h?
He gets tired so quickly,
but you see the genius.
Such a person must be saved.
That's you, hi?
It was his first portrait of me.
A beautiful drawing.
What a fascinating dress.
He liked me so well.
Why is it called 'Gienevra'?
I'm called that. You would say Jennifer.
Is this for sale? I want to buy it.
Take it, grab them all.
If you save him.
The hospital wants you
to come immediately.
A patient is dying,
the coach is waiting.
Go away, do not interrupt me.
Do not you see that I'm busy?
Get out.
A moment...
Sit down, it's nothing.
And that patient?
Probably dead already. Have a seat.
It does not do anything to you.
You see people dying every day.
I told him to come and say that.
Then I was away from you.
Do not worry, nobody will die.
My husband is.
Oh, I forgot that.
You ask me something very serious.
I ask you to save a great man.
At the expense of another person. Another
person will receive the old treatment.
I'm not afraid of that,
I've done that before.
Prove to me that his life is worth
more than that of my least patient.
You have to convince me of that.
He made those drawings.
He is still very young, he has
Did you succeed, honey?
Looks like it does. Good, boy.
Hush. Get a carriage.
Come inside.
I have a better idea.
I dine with friends to
celebrate my knighthood.
Maybe you read about it.
Yes, so I came after your name.
It is a doctor's dinner and
a bachelorette dinner.
I am single.
If you take your husband with you, you
will meet me and my eminent colleagues.
We can show them the case.
What do you say? Are you coming as well?
You make me so happy.
I knew you would
admire and admire him.
What is it?
The money for the consultation.
We keep it on a portrait
of his favorite model.
For the whole treatment
and healing.
That is very generous of you.
I know you will heal him.
That's for sure.
I have great news, Louis.
For me? How beautiful.
We can not afford that.
I love you.
