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. 730Please respect copyright.PENANAHqPgHlEj6i

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

I said shut it off!730Please respect copyright.PENANAQCWO8EPK9n
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)730Please respect copyright.PENANAORM65XPDHj
Are we going to have another Jerry on our730Please respect copyright.PENANApOp9VfkQD7

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. 730Please respect copyright.PENANACbBueaRDeW

(with a sigh)730Please respect copyright.PENANAGyHzTJ6q6j
Yeah.730Please respect copyright.PENANAeJiEIHbGPG
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. 730Please respect copyright.PENANAGA9w9u6Tuy
ATHOL730Please respect copyright.PENANAOeU8q18R16

One hundred and one dilemmas a day, Athe.730Please respect copyright.PENANAfqmhbO3hzU
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. 730Please respect copyright.PENANAUDwwN0mi47

On a personal level? You 'er in the Goth scene730Please respect copyright.PENANAfk637472Ht
in your youth, weren't ya?730Please respect copyright.PENANAXyLz9ShLSq
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. 730Please respect copyright.PENANACj2jZwJ524
FREDRICK730Please respect copyright.PENANAIjXiVfGVTT
It's not that I was a part of the culture, Athe.730Please respect copyright.PENANADxUpJCRHFr

Because I'm making it personal. 730Please respect copyright.PENANAq6TNM5Cp7B
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.730Please respect copyright.PENANA6zygnfaMkP
