Nurse ATHOL, a Scottish immigrant, works on a word search. One of her co-workers turns on the TV, and she looks up as the news turns on. 618Please respect copyright.PENANAfu3svrywwB

a hate crime as the couple are considered618Please respect copyright.PENANAmRqeDMrrrf

Athol snorts at the anchor's lack of care, breaking the tip of her pencil in frustration.

I said shut it off!618Please respect copyright.PENANAiUtf9slEt1
The nurse quickly changes the channel. The HAPPY DAYS THEME SONG replaces the droll voice of the anchor. Athol glares at the TV, fuming.
FREDRICK (O.S)618Please respect copyright.PENANAPUIh7pjeWO
Are we going to have another Jerry on our618Please respect copyright.PENANA5MlOfZbFNO

Athol turns and sees a grim-looking, though smiling Fredrick. He sits across from her, and exhaling exasperatedly lets her pencil flop onto the table. 618Please respect copyright.PENANA0ewtPfusw6

(with a sigh)618Please respect copyright.PENANAZwnfp4DxO7
Yeah.618Please respect copyright.PENANAZC1EmWTP7K
Athol sighs herself and rolls her head back. Fredrick fiddles with his coat before reaching over and taking Athol's word search, continuing from where she left off. Athol looks back at him curiously. 618Please respect copyright.PENANALNZMy4dsh9
ATHOL618Please respect copyright.PENANACUrDkBqxdM

One hundred and one dilemmas a day, Athe.618Please respect copyright.PENANA38FR1SUr6z
Athol suddenly throws her pencil at him, hitting him square on the head. He looks up, surprised. Athol's sitting back in her chair with crossed arms. 618Please respect copyright.PENANApINoZ07e5v

On a personal level? You 'er in the Goth scene618Please respect copyright.PENANAVjnynJ1aK5
in your youth, weren't ya?618Please respect copyright.PENANA9VYNuuH2MJ
Fredrick stands and walks to the window, rubbing the hem of his coat. Athol frowns, shakes her head slightly, and walks over to him, rubbing his back and leaning against him. Fredrick doesn't look at her. 618Please respect copyright.PENANAFnt0RcWg5P
FREDRICK618Please respect copyright.PENANAKYAo2RNKcA
It's not that I was a part of the culture, Athe.618Please respect copyright.PENANAnTIUcMHm0s

Because I'm making it personal. 618Please respect copyright.PENANAn6WEbV6lIh
Athol frowns, then kisses his cheek and takes her leave, leaving the doctor to his thoughts. Fredrick stares blankly after her until she's out of sight, then walks down a hall to Sophie's room.618Please respect copyright.PENANA6J9E9jF9lg
