A five-act stage play depicts a celebrated physician confronted with a wrenching clinical choice: allocate scarce lifesaving treatment to a young practitioner whose survival would likely lead to advances benefiting many, or to a humble, morally upright patient whose rescue is a private good. The drama stages debates among colleagues, friends, and household attendants that expose professional vanity, social bias, and the tension between utilitarian calculation and individual compassion. Sharp dialogue and satirical scenes examine scientific pride, ethical hypocrisy, and how personal motives shape judgments about who deserves care.
