Arrhythmia Page #4

Synopsis: Oleg is a young gifted paramedic. His wife Katya works at the hospital emergency department. She loves Oleg, but is fed up with him caring more about patients than her. She tells him she wants a divorce. The new head of Oleg's EMA substation is a cold-hearted manager who's got new strict rules to implement. Oleg couldn't care less about the rules - he's got lives to save. His attitude gets him in trouble with the new boss. The crisis at work coincides with the personal life crisis. Caught between emergency calls, alcohol-fueled off-shifts, and search for a meaning in life, Oleg and Katya have to find the binding force that keeps them together.

Would be bad if I stepped

on your face at night.

Need a hand with the sheet?

I'll manage.

Okay, I'm off to bed, then.

Bye.

Yes?

Katya, where do we keep the tomato paste?

What paste?

I need a chaser.

Found it!

Okay, bye.

Oleg, what's your problem?!

Get out!

Katya, I'm late for work.

Don't look at me.

I've seen your tits a million times.

You won't ever see them again.

Katya, your ass is out.

Screw you!

Get her passport, insurance papers,

hospital certificates, if any.

Things that she might need.

We're taking her to a hospital.

Could you explain the situation first?

Intestinal bleeding. We're taking

your mother to intensive care unit.

Why intensive care?

She needs observation...

transfusion...

Blood transfusion?

Please get her ready, we have to go.

No, we can't...

We can't do blood transfusion.

You won't have to do anything.

They'll find you a donor.

Mom, we are not going.

We refuse to go.

What do I have to sign?

Miss, I don't mean to scare you...

But in 2 hours your mother will

be dead unless she gets help.

- Let's go, darling.

- Take it easy, Mom. You're not dying.

We'll call our doctor.

Are you out of your mind?

- You are going to kill her.

- No, I'm not.

We can't do blood transfusion.

Witnesses or something?

Yes, we are.

Witnesses of what?

It goes against their religious beliefs.

Okay, let's not waste time.

Ma'am, listen to me.

Margarita Ivanovna, do you hear me?

I do.

Do you want to be hospitalized

in order to save your life?

I do.

Mom, we can't do that.

Go wait in the corridor.

- Dima, let's use the blanket.

- Sure.

Guys, don't touch her,

she's not going anywhere!

You try that again, I'll

hit you in the face.

Grab her legs.

"Yesterday we called an ambulance

for my mother, Margarita Melikhova.

"I did not remember their names.

"The doctors were being rude, they

did not take their shoes off.

"They were being insolent, they were drunk.

We weren't drunk.

"They ignored our religious

beliefs which deeply insulted us.

"We refused to be hospitalized

on account of having a personal doctor

"whom we were going to call.

"But these so-called

doctors grabbed my mother,

"nearly dropping her on the staircase,

"and dragged her out against

her will, laughing."

"When I made an attempt to retrieve my dear

mother from these so-called doctors,

"I was hit in the face.

"After that, the thuggish

one said he'd break my nose

"if I tried to approach

my dear mother again.

"He was swearing which insulted me as a

religious person for the second time.

"I'm demanding their dismissal

on account of incompetence."

What are we gonna do?

Write an explanatory note.

I did push her hard.
