However, when he finds that he is still awake during the operation, he finds out about a plot to kill him and get his money, and learns that Jack and Sam are in on it. Eventually one of the doctors operating on him that has been sent by law enforcement[citation needed] to spy on the other doctors realizes what is going on.
