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. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAgrqZmgww5o

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)660Please respect copyright.PENANAKiXf4jKJcZ
Are we going to have another Jerry on our660Please respect copyright.PENANA7ALKLLQ5qj

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. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAV0SYAmOpC0

(with a sigh)660Please respect copyright.PENANAJU5EXooPG1
Yeah.660Please respect copyright.PENANAat8xRGjuZ2
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. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAIjqYZD93YK

One hundred and one dilemmas a day, Athe.660Please respect copyright.PENANAvoP7XY68pE
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. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAUHrgravxBj

On a personal level? You 'er in the Goth scene660Please respect copyright.PENANASwu2BXCYRi

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. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAr1211XwrsF
FREDRICK660Please respect copyright.PENANAbFZb6JCsj6

Because I'm making it personal. 660Please respect copyright.PENANAaUb9iUSglz
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.660Please respect copyright.PENANAU3B4qeCwSm
