Clips from Pure Genius - A Bunker Hill Christmas (S01E01)

"Wish you'd mentioned that the grim reaper"
Pure Genius
"was coming here to ruin our GSS trial."
Pure Genius
"I was expecting to get someone lower on the food chain"
Pure Genius
"- so I could push it through. - I had no idea she was coming."
Pure Genius
"But don't call her that the grim reaper, even if it's a joke."
Pure Genius
"- I felt it, W. - You felt what?"
Pure Genius
"- The tremor. - What kind of tremor?"
Pure Genius
"A not particularly distinguishable tremor"
Pure Genius
"in my right hand. Tremors are typically"
Pure Genius
"the first signs of the symptoms of GSS"
Pure Genius
"- taking a hold on the human body. - James..."
Pure Genius
"Mild tremors followed by more intense tremors"
Pure Genius
"followed by tics to slowing of the muscles"
Pure Genius
"to attacking and eventually destroying of the brain."
Pure Genius
"(whispers): I felt it, W."
Pure Genius
"I don't want you to jump to any conclusion..."
Pure Genius
"W..."
Pure Genius
"Will you be my doctor?"
Pure Genius
"Of course."
Pure Genius
"Excellent."
Pure Genius
"Ah, here she is."
Pure Genius
"You must be Maddie."
Pure Genius
"You must be James Bell."
Pure Genius
"Hi. I'm Dr. Wallace. Nice to meet you all."
Pure Genius
"Hi. Thank you so much for accepting"
Pure Genius
"- our application. - Nice to meet you."
Pure Genius
"Are you ready to kick your cancer's ass?"
Pure Genius
"So ready."
Pure Genius
"Let's get you checked in."
Pure Genius
"Today we have proven that this public elementary school"
Pure Genius
"knowingly put its own students' health at risk"
Pure Genius
"by using a food vendor that provided absolutely zero"
Pure Genius
"food choices that met with FDA nutritional standards."
Pure Genius
"And the court ruling today comes a long way"
Pure Genius
"to once and for all stop"
Pure Genius
"these profit-seeking food vendors"
Pure Genius
"from harming our nation's children."
Pure Genius
"- That lady is good. - Giselle Overman has"
Pure Genius
"become a voice in this country for people without a voice."
Pure Genius
"Her petit mal seizures have increased"
Pure Genius
"in intensity and frequency to the point where"
Pure Genius
"she no longer can function in her daily life."
Pure Genius
"- What can we do? - I call it"
Pure Genius
"The neural pacemaker"
Pure Genius
"monitors electrical activity in the brain."
Pure Genius
"When the cluster of neurons"
Pure Genius
"responsible for a seizure start to show increased activity,"
Pure Genius
"it basically snuffs out the seizure before it occurs."
Pure Genius
"Be still my heart."
Pure Genius
"When can we install that puppy?"
Pure Genius
"There's a hitch. I've done a functional MRI,"
Pure Genius
"a diffusion MRI and an EEG,"
Pure Genius
"and I haven't been able to isolate the area of her brain where"
Pure Genius
"the seizure cascade begins."
Pure Genius
"So we have a fix, but without a seizure focus,"
Pure Genius
"- we can't use it. - How do we find the focus?"
Pure Genius
"Without a new way to look at the brain, I have no idea."
Pure Genius
"So find a new way to look at the brain."
Pure Genius
"(laughs): Obviously."
Pure Genius
"(chuckles)"
Pure Genius
"Obviously."
Pure Genius
"Exactly. But we're working on a key. The problem is"
Pure Genius
"the leukemia protein has a similar structure"
Pure Genius
"to a lot of the other proteins in the body,"
Pure Genius
"so making our key fit that lock"
Pure Genius
"- and only that lock hasn't been easy. - Hmm."
Pure Genius
"I can show you something in one minute."
Pure Genius
"So, how's the Malik sitch?"
Pure Genius
"(whispers): He asked me to dinner."
Pure Genius
"- And? - I panicked... I said brunch."
Pure Genius
"Ooh. The brunch downgrade. Been there."
Pure Genius
"Exactly. I just thought, take it slow, you know?"
Pure Genius
"It's not like a date or anything... it's brunch,"
Pure Genius
"- it's casual. - Please, I don't care"
Pure Genius
"if it's a five-course meal or an Egg McMuffin..."
Pure Genius
"once food is being ingested, it's a date."
Pure Genius
"So you're saying I shouldn't go to brunch?"
Pure Genius
"No, I'm saying you're going on a date."
Pure Genius
"ELODY: Yeah, I agree."
Pure Genius
"It's definitely a date. Here,"
Pure Genius
"check this out."
Pure Genius
"So, these are Maddie's T-cells, which we've modified"
Pure Genius
"by adding our artificial antibody detector."
Pure Genius
"and the red ones are her leukemia cells."
Pure Genius
"Oh, my God."
Pure Genius
"This might actually work."
Pure Genius
"MADDIE: So... you're infusing me with some kind of GMO,"
Pure Genius
"which means if this works and, you know, I actually live,"
Pure Genius
"I will never be able to walk into a Whole Foods again."
Pure Genius
"Not exactly. Um, these are your actual cells."
Pure Genius
"We're just giving them the enhanced ability"
Pure Genius
"to detect your leukemia cells."
Pure Genius
"Hmm. So, super cells."
Pure Genius
"Yeah, super cells."
Pure Genius
"You ready to pick a little?"
Pure Genius
"Pick? Oh, yeah, no."
Pure Genius
"Uh, not a picker."
Pure Genius
"Then I'll play, you sing."
Pure Genius
"- (exhales): No. - (laughing)"
Pure Genius
"Dr. Brockett,"
Pure Genius
"I have been to..."
Pure Genius
"five hospitals in four different cities"
Pure Genius
"over the past two years."
Pure Genius
"I mean, my life has just been about staying alive."
Pure Genius
"So whenever someone sticks a needle in me"
Pure Genius
"or does a scan or pokes me or prods me,"
Pure Genius
"doing music is what gets me through it."
Pure Genius
"So I'm afraid I'm gonna have to insist."
