In this episode titled "A Lesson Begins," the protagonist Elise begins her medical career under the pseudonym "Rose." Her father, Ell, arranges for her to apprentice under Dr. Graham at Teresa Hospital without revealing her family ties. Elise's motivation for hiding her true identity stems from her desire to be treated without bias, just like any other apprentice.
Upon her arrival at the hospital, Elise meets Dr. Graham, who initially underestimates her due to her young age and self-taught medical knowledge. Despite his skepticism, Graham assigns Elise to a ward with critically ill or incurable patients, believing she will quickly give up. However, Elise's dedication and medical skill soon become apparent.
On the ward, Elise faces skepticism and curiosity from both the hospital staff and the patients. Undeterred, she begins improving hygiene practices, knowing how crucial this is to reducing mortality rates. Her practical approach and genuine concern for the patients earn her respect and cooperation.
A pivotal moment occurs when a patient is admitted with severe bedsores and a risk of infection. Elise decides to perform surgery—a bold move that surprises everyone. Despite the risks and lack of support, she successfully carries out the operation, proving her exceptional medical abilities and deep understanding of patient care.
Meanwhile, the royal court discusses the Emperor's health and the political situation. The Emperor's illness remains a mystery, but it is hinted that Elise's discoveries could be the key to diagnosing his condition.
Back at the hospital, Dr. Graham is astonished to find Elise still working hard and earning the admiration of patients and staff. Upon learning of her successful treatments and surgeries, he reconsiders his initial judgment of her. In a humbling moment, Graham admits his mistake and extends a hand of acceptance, acknowledging her as a true apprentice.
The episode ends with a revelation at the royal court: the Emperor's mysterious illness is diagnosed as diabetes, a diagnosis that aligns with Elise's earlier findings.
