About this episode
“The Sliver”: After a man survives a terrible car accident with only a cracked vertebra, he feels grateful to have emerged relatively unscathed. But after undergoing surgery to fix the problem, his pain only grows worse – and soon, he’s on the verge of death. And there are only hours left to save him.
“Killer Style”: A young man in Turkey leaves his small village for the big city to chase his dreams. But soon, he finds himself so short of breath, he can’t work – let alone breathe. If he can’t work, he won’t be able to afford to stay. However, as his health gets worse and worse, his job is the least of his worries.
