瑞安医院的妇产科男医生左右,对自己的工作心存不满,一直向往成为一名外科医生,因此常与身为妇产科主任、在医院里医术精湛威望极高临近退休的父亲左盛德产生龃龉,甚至对女朋友侯晚晴也要隐瞒身份。
左盛德委托自己的学生,同为妇产科医生的钱小小帮助左右做通心理工作。钱小小与左右师出同门又年龄相仿,但因为性格直率刚烈,常被左右称为女汉子,二人针锋相对已成日常交往的常态,因此接受老师的委托后颇感为难。
左盛德的另一得意门生,妇产科男副主任董思贤,因为工作的原因婚后一直与妻子,钱蕾(钱小小的姐姐)聚少离多,且多次求子无果。这让董思贤的岳母,同时也是董思贤养母的赵秀珍倍感焦急。因生母死于难产,董思贤对自己的职业格外尽责,一心扑在事业上,忽略了对家庭和与妻子的情感,导致钱蕾与以前的恋人Eric发生一夜情。
因身份败露,左右与侯晚晴分手,更加怨恨自己的职业。后因一系列误会和性情行事,加之左盛德为向院长胡芙蓉证明自己无意扶持左右上位,当众宣布把左右转到新生儿科。左右赌气上任,遇见新生儿科护士方圆,对其一见倾心。
虽然不在妇产科,左右却未失医者仁心,对身患TTTS症(双胞胎输血综合症)的孕妇唐丽,主张采取积极治疗,并钻研国外成功案例,做出详尽手术方案,帮其保住胎儿。左右的方案获得院长胡芙蓉的认可,但胡芙蓉深知这是一个绝佳的机会,能帮助自己向来器重的董思贤取得成就,有意让董亲自做手术,并以此对左盛德做出试探。
左盛德也被左右的精神感染,也有意挑战这个医学难题,决定让董主刀,自己签了责任书在旁协助。左右误会父亲和董思贤,大闹院长室,盛怒下提出辞职。
左右在方圆的鼓励和钱小小的激将之下,重回妇产科,对方圆展开追求。不料方圆心有所属,暗恋已婚的董思贤良久。董思贤事业上取得了巨大成功,却无意中发现了钱蕾的婚外情,与之离婚。
左盛德患腱鞘炎,手术中无法主刀,临时让董思贤顶替,结果产妇意外身亡,造成医患纠纷,董思贤被迫停职。左右、钱小小和外科主任赵一鸣夜以继日查明真相,帮助董思贤复职。此时院长得知左盛德的身体状况,同意了他退休的请求。
左盛德推举董思贤做产科主任,董思贤自觉资历尚浅,提出暂时代理主任职位。产科医生马悦,第一时间成为董思贤的追随者,希望其日后转为主任之后,自己有机会获得副主任职位。
董思贤离婚之后,方圆内心充满希望,对左右的追求更加无动于衷,左右明白自己无法真正得到方圆的心。赵一鸣对其冷嘲热讽,左右激将赵一鸣追钱小小,赵一鸣虽已有女友孙妍,仍接招,一番动作下来,二人反而略生情愫。后事件败露,钱小小怒不可遏,找左右算账,左右在自保的紧急关头,反而听从内心召唤,向钱小小表白爱意。
钱小小经过斗争,发现自己对左右也有爱意,二人终于走到一起,成为恋人。恋情却遭到赵秀珍的反对,左盛德出面,做通了赵的工作。钱小小和左右的融洽关系让钱蕾颇受触动,找到董思贤鸳梦重温,导致怀孕。
左盛德被医院返聘为顾问,马悦自觉左家势力回归,自己了无希望,于是在工作中不断挑拨左右与董思贤,慢慢引起董思贤的重视,权力之心渐起,开始对左右心存芥蒂。
医院VIP客户梅玉竹以考察之名,找左右求多子丸,以望怀上双胞胎分得更多家产,施以威逼利诱之后,左右本着医德行事,严正拒绝,马悦自觉这是良机,暗中联系梅,帮助其怀上四胞胎,并偷改了她的体检报告,让梅的主治医左右虽有疑虑,却没采取措施。后梅玉竹四胞胎流产,丈夫找院长调查真相,董思贤查明马悦作祟,出于私心没有揭发,反而栽赃给左右二人,最终钱小小不顾左右反对,承担了责任。
钱小小停职,在医院照顾患有先兆子痫的钱蕾,左右赌气请假陪同。董思贤良心不安,无法面对马悦,劝其辞职,马悦以跳楼相逼,揭露事件真相。董思贤被革职,钱小小怨恨董思贤,左右已经逐渐成熟,原谅了董,并主动提出转到外科,不与董争主任职务。
唐丽被查出乳腺癌,左右与董思贤通力合作,联手为唐丽手术保住双胞胎,并有效保住了癌症的后续治疗,钱小小也在此时原谅了董思贤。
董思贤和钱蕾的复婚仪式上,左右全力运作,促成了自己和钱小小、左盛德和一直照顾左家父子的花阿姨、妇产科护士长潘爱莲和实习医生张强的姻缘,皆大欢喜。(Translation needed)

365. The Covenant

Title: The Covenant
Genre: Action, Fantasy, Horror
Year: 2006

Summary: In the town of Ipswich, four college school boys - Caleb, Pogue, Reid and Tyler, together known as the Sons of Ipswich - are the descendants of colonial witch families and thus wield magical abilities which first manifest on their 13th birthday and grow stronger until they Ascend at 18. The Power is linked to their life force; the more they use, the faster they age. This becomes more dangerous as, upon Ascending, their powers reach their full strength and become so addictive, seductive as they say, that some can't resist. Caleb - who's closest to his 18th birthday - exhibits restraint.
While attending a rave, Caleb meets Sarah, a transfer student from a community college in Boston. The Sons also meet Chase Collins, a new student at Spencer Academy. Their meeting is cut short when cops appear to break up the party. The boys escape by using their combined magics. After a student is found mysteriously dead near their campus, various paranormal occurrences take place, with Sarah and her roommate Kate being the focus of it. Upset, Caleb suspects Reid - the most reckless of the warlocks - but he angrily denies any abusive usage of his powers.
Caleb and later Pogue see a "darkling," a dead spirit and malicious omen. Meanwhile, Caleb and Sarah quickly become romantically close. During a swim race, Caleb notices Chase, who had befriended the group, displaying magic usage. After researching, Caleb concludes that Chase descends from a fifth family, the bastard son of Goodwin “Goody” Pope, one believed long extinct, and that he is the true perpetrator. As the Sons discuss this revelation, Pogue learns that his girlfriend was rendered comatose by a spell. Enraged, he hastily challenges Chase, who swiftly hospitalizes him.
Caleb visits Sarah only to fall into Chase's trap. Chase reveals that he was unaware of his magic’s origin, having been adopted. After locating his biological father, he learned of the price for ascension; but it was too late and he has become too addicted to using magic. His biological father then transferred power to him. Chase wants to force other "ascended" witches to transfer power to him as well, starting with Caleb. Despite Caleb's warning that having more power does not save him from aging to death, Chase ignores him. Before leaving, Chase threatens harm on Caleb's family and friends if he does not get what he wants. Caleb reveals the truth to Sarah and takes her to his father, a man of forty-four years with a decrepit old body, exhausted from magic abuse. When Sarah suggests that one of the other three transfer their power to Caleb so he could evenly match Chase, Caleb immediately refuses, explaining that doing so will cost them their lives.
On the night of Caleb’s eighteenth birthday, he leaves to face Chase alone, and has Reid and Tyler safeguard Sarah in public. However, Chase easily kidnaps Sarah. At an old barn, the two confront each other. Chase reveals a spellbound Sarah and gives Caleb an ultimatum of his life for hers. Caleb declares he won’t will his power away or let Sarah come to harm. They duel and Caleb is clearly outmatched. At the exact minute of his birth, he ascends, and his power fully matures, which allows him to mount an offensive. However, as Chase has more than one magical share, he still proves superior and the temporary turn of tide does not last long. Back at home, Evelyn, Caleb's mother, begs her husband to save Caleb. He sacrifices himself and transfers his power remotely to his son. Once his father’s power is infused within him, Caleb hits Chase with a final blow that engulfs him in a ball of flame. Sarah, Kate, and Pogue awaken, freed from their curses.
Firefighters arrive on the scene. Caleb and Sarah wait until inspection of the barn’s wreckage is complete; they are informed that a third person was not found, suggesting Chase somehow survived and escaped. The pair get into Caleb’s car, and he casually uses magic to fix the busted windshield, which seems visibly unsettling to Sarah. He reassuringly holds her hand, and they drive off.

Summary: In a dystopian future, Sentinels have been programmed to identify and hunt down mutants and their human allies who carry the mutant gene for extermination. During a Sentinel raid which overwhelms nearly every mutant in Russia, Kitty Pryde sends Bishop's consciousness back in time a few days before the attack, in an effort to warn the other mutants so as to ensure their survival.
Professor Charles Xavier and other mutant survivors later meet Kitty Pryde at a remote Chinese temple, and explains the history of the Sentinels, which were designed by Bolivar Trask, whom Mystique assassinated in 1973; Mystique's DNA was then modified by scientists to advance the Sentinel program. Using Kitty's ability to send a mutant's consciousness back in time, Xavier and Magneto plan to alter history by preventing Trask’s assassination. While Xavier initially plans to be the candidate, Wolverine volunteers instead since his regenerative powers would allow him to survive the process.
After awakening in his younger body in 1973, Wolverine arrives at the X-Mansion, discovering the school has been shut down and that the younger Xavier can walk due to a specialized serum suppressing his mutant abilities. Hoping to reunite with Mystique, Xavier agrees to help Wolverine and busts Erik Lensherr out of his prison cell under the Pentagon, aided by Hank McCoy and Peter Maximoff.
Mystique discovers Trask has been experimenting on mutants and in revenge plots to assassinate him at the Paris Peace Accords. Her vengeance results in failure after Xavier, Hank, and Wolverine intervene, and Erik attempts to kill her to prevent the Sentinel takeover from happening. During the fight, Hank, Erik, and Mystique expose themselves as mutants to the world. Trask takes advantage of this event and successfully convinces President Richard Nixon to initialize the Sentinel program.
Erik obtains his signature helmet to block out Xavier’s psychic powers and secretly takes control of Trask's Sentinel prototypes. Xavier abandons the serum, regaining his mutant power, and communicates with his future self, who inspires him to protect the relationship between mutants and mankind. After using Cerebro to track Mystique, he, Hank and Wolverine take flight to Washington, D.C. to put an end to her assassination plot on Trask.
At a ceremony where Nixon unveils the Sentinels, Xavier, Hank, and Wolverine search for the disguised Mystique. Magneto appears, controlling the Sentinels, and uses the Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Stadium to surround the White House. Hank transforms into Beast and fights a Sentinel. Wolverine confronts Magneto, but is thrown into the Potomac River. Nixon, Trask, and Mystique hide in a safe room beneath the White House, but Magneto rips it out of the building with the intention of killing the U.S. President.
In the future, the Sentinels launch an attack on the X-Men, slaying most of them. In the present, Xavier persuades Mystique to spare Trask after she saves President Nixon from Magneto, altering history and erasing the Sentinels from existence. Magneto and Mystique both leave, one a criminal, the other a hero; and Trask is jailed for attempting to sell U.S. military secrets to Vietnamese officials.
Wolverine wakes up at the mansion in the present day to find Iceman, Rogue, Colossus, Kitty, Beast, Storm, Jean Grey, Scott Summers and Xavier all alive. Wolverine speaks to Xavier, who is also aware of the changes in history. Back in 1973, the younger Wolverine is rescued by Mystique, who is disguised as William Stryker.

361. Maleficent

Title: Maleficent
Genre: Action, Adventure, Family
Year: 2014

Summary: Maleficent is a powerful fairy living in the Moors, a magical forest realm bordering a human kingdom. As a young girl, she meets and falls in love with a human peasant boy named Stefan, whose love for Maleficent is overshadowed by his ambition. As they become older, the two grow apart, and Maleficent becomes protector of the Moors. When King Henry tries to conquer the Moors, Maleficent mortally wounds him and forces him to retreat. As he lies dying, he declares that whoever kills Maleficent will be named his successor and marry his daughter, Princess Leila. Stefan visits Maleficent in the Moors. He drugs her, but cannot bring himself to kill her. Instead, he cuts off her wings with iron, which is lethal to fairies, and presents them to the king. Devastated by Stefan's betrayal, Maleficent turns the Moors into a dark kingdom. She finds a raven named Diaval to act as her wings, spy and confidant. She transforms him into different forms as needed, including human.
After some time, Diaval informs Maleficent that Stefan, now king, is hosting a christening for his newborn daughter, Aurora. Bent on revenge, Maleficent arrives uninvited and curses the infant princess: on her sixteenth birthday, she will prick her finger on the spindle of a spinning wheel and fall into a deep sleep from which she will never awaken. When Stefan begs for mercy, Maleficent mocks him and offers an antidote: the curse can only be broken by true love's kiss. Fearing for his daughter's safety, Stefan sends Aurora to live with three pixies—Knotgrass, Thistlewit, and Flittle—until the day after her sixteenth birthday, while he destroys all the spinning wheels in the kingdom and hides their remnants in the castle dungeon. He sends his armies to find and kill Maleficent, but she surrounds the Moors with an impenetrable wall of thorns. King Stefan slips into madness and paranoia, trying to prevent the curse, even neglecting to see his wife on her deathbed.
Despite her initial dislike for Aurora, Maleficent begins to care for her when the bumbling and neglectful pixies fail to do so. After a brief meeting with the young Aurora, Maleficent watches over her from afar. When Aurora is fifteen, she encounters Maleficent. Knowing that she is being watched over, she calls Maleficent her "fairy godmother". Maleficent tries desperately to undo the curse but is unsuccessful, as the curse proves to be unbreakable by any means other than true love's kiss. In the forest, Aurora meets Prince Philip, and the two are attracted to each other. On the day before Aurora's sixteenth birthday, Aurora tells Maleficent that she would like to live with her in the Moors. When Aurora returns to the cottage, the pixies inadvertently tell Aurora of her past. Having learned of Maleficent's true identity, Aurora runs to her father's castle.
After a brief reunion with his daughter, Stefan locks her away in a room for her own safety while setting up a plan to kill Maleficent. However, the power of the curse draws Aurora to the dungeon, where a spinning wheel magically reassembles itself. She pricks her finger and falls into a deep sleep, fulfilling the curse. Maleficent, intent on saving Aurora, abducts Phillip and infiltrates Stefan's castle, but Phillip's kiss fails to awaken Aurora. At her bedside, Maleficent apologizes to Aurora and kisses her forehead. Aurora awakens, as Maleficent's motherly feelings towards her count as true love. However, as Maleficent and Aurora attempt to leave, they are ambushed by Stefan and his guards, with an iron net dropping on her. Maleficent transforms Diaval into a dragon, and he battles Stefan's guards, but he is eventually caught as well. Stefan taunts Maleficent, who is dizzy and sick from the iron, his former love for her fully gone, but before he can deliver a killing blow, Aurora finds her wings and releases them. They fly to Maleficent and reattach themselves. Maleficent carries Stefan to the top of the castle's highest tower and beats him easily and quickly in battle, but cannot bring herself to kill him. Stefan attacks her as she turns away, however, and both plummet entwined from the tower. Maleficent breaks away and Stefan falls to his death.
In the end, Maleficent returns the Moors to its former glory, and Aurora is crowned queen to unify the two kingdoms.
