Code: To Save Lives

Imagine yourself inside a convenience store and then suddenly you were trapped inside with other customers afraid and nervous when one customer is actually a gunman who wants to steal your wallet. The worst thing is the thief only focus is on one customer who happened to be an autistic and nervous that he is,  can't talk as fast as he could nor act as fast to give what the thief wants. Yup that's the episode scene from THE GOOD DOCTOR.

From the trailer we thought it was Dr. Murphy who was shot by the thief. NO. The victim was the lady accompanied by a young man happened to be on their first date. The man blamed Dr. Murphy for not giving his wallet right away therefore would save any abrupt commotion or would end any confrontation.

They all end up in the Hospital where the young woman was under the knife, a major surgery was done to save her and with Dr. Murphy in it as he provide details of what went wrong. Thank God for his photographic memory because the Chief surgeon was also thankful that it enables him to perform the surgery with much ease and conviction that what they are doing is right in order for the young woman to survive. While Dr. Claire Brown was adamant to do the surgery when he saw the tattoo mark of Nazi symbol on thief's body. The older, more experienced  surgeon noticed and observed Dr. Brown's reaction that she asked her to leave the operation. It's true that the code of conduct of every doctors or medical practitioners are to practice medicine and save lives no matter of what race, color or sexual preference, status of such patient under their care. Racism is not part of the order of Hippocrates. This is also a moral code applied to all MEDIC and the INTERNATIONAL RED CROSS in different countries in times of WAR and calamities.
