Doc – in your hands 3: the plot of the last episode
The first episode is a flashback that takes place in 2011when Agnese (Sara Lazzaro) is diagnosed with cancer and given nine months to live, and when Doc (Luca Argentero) discovers that Bramante had introduced the massive use of benzodiazepines into the nursing homes, through his cooperative to keep elderly patients at bay and cut jobs. Fanti wants to do research on the use of the drug and frame Bramante, who has ambitions as a politician and not as a doctor.
Doc discovers the excessive use of benzodiazepines after the hospitalization of a series of patients and a certain Gianfranco, who is managed by Lorenzo (Gianmarco Saurino). The elderly man feels weak and has broken a femur due to taking the drug imposed by the RSA where he lives. Fanti has a direct comparison with Alberto Bramante (Diego Ribon) who does not mince his words: “Either you withdraw your research or I’ll ruin you”. Andrea is ready to continue his battle, but Agnese’s health is in the middle.
How Fanti became the “bastard prince”
The only hope to stop Agnese’s cancer is to participate in an experimental trial in New York. However, the places are sold out. Bramante could lend her a hand by making a deal with Andrea: the withdrawal of his benzodiazepine research in exchange for a place in the trial. The head doctor accepts, but has betrayed the principles of a doctor and put personal interests first.
Fanti is torn by remorse and will never be the same again, turns into the “bastard prince”, as he was called in the department. Then came the accident that caused his amnesia. Agnese tells everything to Fanti.
