| Description: | 08:09:30:- CU cyanide antidote package. MS of automatic doors in a hospital emergency ward: doors close and open; camera travels through and around the spanse of the wing-- not a busy time as there are no patients or doctors and all of the rooms are unoccupied. CU of a Biohazard symbol hanging on a wall. ECU of an eye chart on a wall; zoom out to CU eye charts (camera moves around a bit for some "wacky" angles). Shot on location at Rush Poison Control Center. 08:12:04:- CU of Mike Lukas as he welcomes the audience and introduces Doctor Gerald B. Leikin, medical director of the Rush Center. Zoom out to MS of the two, zoom into a CU of each as each one talks, pan L and R. They chat about the daily routines, if there is cyanide in apple seeds, the history of the urban legend, symptoms of poisoning, what workers at the poison center do to reverse poisoning (the doctor opens a poison control kit which has amyll nitrate poppers, sodium nitrate, and other goodies). 08:22:38:- They discuss insecticides (do they affect household pets and how so?), rat poison, S.L.U.D.G.E., Mister Yuck, fiber (can you eat too much and how does it damage the GI system?) and hair growth (why does it grow to certain lengths in certain areas?). | |
