At the hospital, Jodie, a dedicated and compassionate medical professional, finds herself tending to a distressed patient named Ali. Ali arrives in a state of panic, accompanied by her concerned boyfriend, Lucas, who fears that her waters may have broken prematurely. Jodie reassures them both, conducting an initial assessment and doing her best to ease Ali’s anxiety. After a brief examination, she determines that there may not be an immediate cause for alarm but advises Ali to stay mindful of any changes in her condition.
However, Ali’s discomfort does not subside. Later that day, she returns to the hospital, still experiencing pain and uncertainty about her pregnancy. Jodie, following her instincts as a doctor, believes that something more may be at play and insists that further investigation is necessary. She grows increasingly uneasy about dismissing Ali’s concerns without a thorough check-up.
Despite Jodie’s apprehension, her colleague Maria is far less convinced. Viewing the situation as non-urgent, Maria argues that Ali should simply be sent home to rest, dismissing her symptoms as minor and not warranting further intervention. Jodie, however, remains torn between protocol and her gut feeling—what if Ali’s condition is more serious than it appears?
As Ali continues to reach out to Jodie, her anxiety mounting with each passing moment, Jodie is left questioning whether her instincts were right all along. Could something be seriously wrong with Ali’s pregnancy, and has the hospital overlooked a potentially life-threatening emergency? Jodie finds herself at a crossroads, facing both professional and moral dilemmas, as she must decide whether to push back against Maria’s judgment or risk leaving Ali in danger.
