VITA NOVA CLINIC
ABDOMINAL CT SCAN

Given her current condition,

brain stimulation
could cause hemorrhaging.

It might even cause
nervous system depression.

[Carlos] Well, doing nothing
is even worse.

And as head of surgery,
I'm making the call.

[tense music playing]

Now let's prepare for the surgery.

-Thank you, Bernal.
-[Bernal] Okay.

You're not thinking straight here.
She's not your wife.

But she is my patient.

And plus she's related to my wife.

So let me tell you something
right now, Fernando.

Just do as you’re told, okay?

-[Fernando] We have the family's consent?
-Upload the order to the system.

I'm gonna check in with Gustavo
after we wrap it all up.

[Fernando] Sure.

Whatever you say, sir.

STOLEN HEARTBEATS

[machine beeping steadily]

Where are you taking the patient?

"Deep brain internal stimulation."
That makes no sense.

And also the family's consent document
is missing from this.

Let me take care of it now. You're good.

[tense music continues]

What's their plan with all this?

[heart beating]

Brain operation.

But, you might not wake up from it.

Please, don’t let them do that.

If anyone here wanted to hurt you,
I would never allow it.

-[heart rate monitor beeping]
-[Anabel] Thank you.

[cell phone ringing]

Yeah?

Mr. Roldán,
I work down here at the clinic.

I’m a nurse. My name's Rafael Mejía.

It’s about your daughter.

They scheduled to perform
a very risky surgery on her.

[Gustavo] What? No one told me anything.

I recommend that you come immediately.

They're preparing to move forward
with the operation.

-Sign here.
-Right here?

-Yes.
-Thank you.

-Thank you, doctor.
-[Gustavo] Carlos.

Carlos, what's going on?
How's it possible I find out from a nurse

that you wanna operate on Anabel?

-You found out from a nurse?
-[dramatic music playing]

Gustavo, I was gonna tell you,

but obviously it's time-sensitive
to proceed with the operation.

Anabel will be operated on
by the hospital's best neurosurgeon.

What're they gonna do to her?

A deep brain internal stimulation
to avoid irreversible damage

'cause I need to wake her up again.

Carlos, are you sure
about what you're gonna do here?

-I think we need a second opinion.
-I am the one who's a doctor!

And so it's my decision!
I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Silvia. Sorry.

Carlos, listen, I know
you have good intentions with Anabel.

-But what if you're wrong?
-My love, listen.

Carlos wants what's best for Anabel.

We have to trust
that he knows what to do here.

[Carlos] Gustavo,

please just sign the consent form.

It might be our last chance to save her.
Trust me.

Dad, please.

Dad, please, don't do it.

Carlos wants what's best,
but someone else…

They-- they want to do something terrible.

[breathing heavily]
