Pilot Prologue:
intro first scene:
(a voiceover of the main character)
They say that Life is very simple..you live you die..even your heart only makes two sounds
Lub..Dub..whatever complicated things in the middle is purely because of our own
making..Being a doctor means you are the sole conductor of the complicated things within
every person's life..and that really sucks! Because you do have your own problems too..Well,
this is the story of everything you didn’t know about being a doctor..

outro first scene:

(a voiceover of the main character)
Comparing to other jobs, being a doctor meant something in the development of our identity.
Regarding of our advantages or weaknesses, there are always patients you can help, patients
who don't need help & patients who don't want any help..and dealing with this actually
shapes who you are as a person. Our job is a privilege, sometimes we forget how cool it is..

There will be one scene where she has a deaf patient, Ana, that has been treated with
chemotherapy due to her mastoid cancer. A day before Ana’s dismissal from the hospital, her
friends from the deaf society come to see her and cheer her up as it will be her last day in the
hospital before she goes back to the (yayasan). They communicate with sign language.
Seeing that scenery, doctor X (the main character) feels so warm. Unfortunately, the day
after, she finds out that Anna has passed away due to her illness, despite the chemotherapy. It
breaks her heart so much that it is her first time crying in silence for a patient.

DOCTOR ON CALL
A Synopsis

"How deeply you touch another life is the difference between being dead or alive"

The Main storyline:

A young vibrant female doctor (Doctor X) who's got everything worked out fine turns
rebellious, lazy, and doesn't really care about her carrier anymore ever since the death of her
parents in a tragic accident. She felt like being a doctor is useless when she can't even save
her own parents.

Her rebellious spirit often gets her into a lot of problems in and out of the hospital.
The hospital director is the only one that she still respects because she considers him as a
father figure that she misses.

She has her life messed up Until one day she has a revelation/ epiphany when she got
diagnosed with a terminal cancer, although she has to live the rest of her life weaker everyday
yet she becomes happier and find deep meaning in helping her patients get through their
problems.

She then explores her life, her patients, her friends, her symptoms, how she felt about dealing
the fact that she only gets a year to live and how she overcame her depression to finally
accept every little things in life being grateful and happy. Finally she is able to find meaning
in her life and she changes to be a very empathic doctor giving hope to her patients and
becomes an example to everyone in the hospital.

Through her everyday challenges she meets new patients, make new friends, getting along
better with her coworkers, building romantic relationship and finding out more about herself.

At the end of the story Doctor X is able to give hope and save a patient's life, a young kid
who's also diagnosed with a benign curable cancer just before she passed away. That kid 10
years later will become a doctor himself and the cycle of life continues. Becoming a doctor is
a personal calling, doctor on call.
