|The day you joined Middlesea, I could tell you were going to be great.

|You're constantly learning new things. When you make mistakes, you push through and get it right.

|It's not your fault. I knew it would happen sooner or later.

|I know I probably look like a coward for quitting and running away.

|But I couldn't stand to wait around and get fired.

|Or worse...stay and become useless.

|Thank you so much for all of your hard work, intern.

|It's funny, I can barely even remember why I went to med school anymore.

|Was it even to help people? Or was it to make my parents proud of me?

|Anyway, good luck at Middlesea.

|You fumbled those beats at the end. But there's no way that was an accident. Right?

|After all those things I've seen you pull off... I mean, you're Edega's favorite for a reason.

|Yesterday was... not my greatest day. I thought I was getting fired for sure.

|But in that moment... you made me not look so bad.

==Trivia==
* Boss Fight switches between 6/4 and 10/4 time.
* If all beats are missed during the ending sequence, an alternate story route will occur where Paige never leaves. This affects several cutscenes and the lyrics of [[Miracle Defibrillator (Cole's Song)]], as well as preventing the robots from appearing in the hospital.
** The ending sequence can only occur once per save file.
*The title doesn't mean the level is a boss fight, it's a literal boss fight, where around the end, the intern fights the boss, Edega.

'''Something to Tell You''' is the first level of Act 6.

It marks the formal introduction of [[Syncopation]] into the main story.

== Synopsis ==
Logan and Hailey are treated throughout the hospital as Logan attempts multiple times to confess his feelings to Hailey. When alone, Hailey wonders why Logan hasn't admitted his feelings for her, Logan wonders why he can't be strong enough to tell the truth, and both worry that the love they feel isn't really felt by the other. At the end, they finally yell to each other that they want to be more than friends.

the next day…

{|
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Welcome back!
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|You came at a good time. I’ve made a lot of progress on studying Connectifia abortus.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|I’ve been looking into a fix, so that it won’t keep coming back.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|In the meantime…we’ve got a new patient!
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|When Paige gets here, she can help us run some tests.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Oh, and, uh…
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Y’know how everyone who gets signed in needs to fill out some forms, right?
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|There’s a space at the bottom to ask for accommodations.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|The new guy wrote something for us…let me find it…
|-
|
|”My only request is that Dr Gabriel Edega is not permitted to speak to me.”
|-
|
|”I am happy to work with any of the other providers on staff. Otherwise, I will discontinue my treatment.”
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|No idea what that’s about.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|I told him to wait here, but then he wandered upstairs and made himself comfortable.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|I think he’s in the old Medical Records Room. We barely use it these days, so it’s kind of messy.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Oh hey, here’s Edega now, actually. I’ll just ask him-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Intern. I need to speak with you in my office.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You and Dr Paige. She’s waiting for you there.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|It’s time for your performance evaluation.
|} 
Performace Evaluation
{|
|{{Sprite/Paige|expr=yoyo}}
|(Good morning, Intern! Hopefully this goes quick, right?) 
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Sir, is there any way that this can wait a few minutes?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|We have a new patient that needs our help.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|The nurse told me he really isn’t feeling well-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Ian is more than capable of getting set up on his own.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|This can’t wait.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|It’s been quite a while now since we instate the Rhythm Defibrillation Program.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You’re long overdue for an evaluation. Both of you.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|O-oh…okay!
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Let’s get started. First, Dr Paige.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|To be blunt, I’ve noticed some concerning behavior.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|It started shortly after we began the program.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|To list just one example…currently, we are making headway on our Miracle Defibrillator project.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|As part of that process, we require patients with relevant arrhythmia symptoms to consent to testing it while it’s in beta.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Without testing, we can’t move forward.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|After I had already been in talks with Mr Jonronero to begin further testing, he suddenly declined his consent.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|I know that his sudden decision was because of your influence.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Do you really assume that you know what’s best for him?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige|expr=baffled}}
|S-sir, I don’t have any control over what Lucky wants to do. It’s his body-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You’ll have an opportunity to speak after your evaluation.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|After this roadblock, I took it upon myself to discuss the Miracle Defibrillator beta with various other patients.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Strangely, every patient I spoke to also declined their consent.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|I can’t help but wonder if this is also a matter of your interference.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Furthermore…
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|When I introduced the Rhythm Defibrillation Program, I made it clear that both you and Ian were to shift to rhythm treatments.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|An yet…no matter how many times I’ve checked in on you, I can hardly remember you getting practice with the rhythm defibrillator.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You disregarded your instructions and have made a habit of relying on Ian and the intern.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Every day spent resisting the shift to rhythm treatment is a day where we have to turn more patients away.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You’ve always been a bright and motivated person. It’s not like you to let stubbornness get in the way of saving lives.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|I…
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|And to think this laziness is coming from the same person who requested a switch to LTFT.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Oh, well…I was thinking maybe if I worked less than full-time, it would help me be more energized-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|LTFT schedules are for staff who need them. Like doctors who are pregnant or raising children.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Do you have children at home, Ada?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|No, sir, I’m single…I just thought that a more lax schedule could help me with-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|I suspect you’ll be a team player and revoke that request. I appreciate it. Moving on.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|Intern. It’s time for your evaluation.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|My notes on your performance are much briefer.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You’ve been doing really impressive work. I have to thank you.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|You’re a quick learner, and you always seem determined to try again when you stumble.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|I look forward to continuing our work together.
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|That is all.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Um, just to respond to your feedback…
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|The thing about the rhythm treatments is…you know, with that virus jumping around…
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|I feel like we haven’t done the proper testing to really make sure there’s a permanent way-
|-
|{{Sprite/Edega}}
|I believe you said you had a patient to get to, Dr Paige.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|…
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|…y-yes,sir. I’ll get right on that.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige|expr=run}}
|I have to run to my office first, intern. Then I’ll meet you and Ian in the Records Room!
|} 
{|
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Hey! Hope the meeting went well…?
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Let’s head to the Records Room and get that patient set up before he gets lost or something.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|It’s up the elevator. Paige can meet us there.
|-
|}
Records Room
{|
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|It’s that kid again. This is awkward.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Uh…what were you doing in there? That’s room’s supposed to be off-limits.
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan}}
|I was just scouting around!
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan|expr=cheers}}
|I was lookin’ for a cool spot to hang out, I don’t wanna be stuck in my room all the time.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Well, you can’t hang out in there. We keep confidential info about patients in there.
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan}}
|I saw that! At first I thought everything in the room was junk, but then I saw those big filing cabinet things.
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan}}
|They had all these folders with our names on them! So I, uh…starting flipping through.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Yeah I see that. You were snooping. Let me guess, you were reading that girl Hailey’s file?
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Did you discover any big revelations about her in there?
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan|expr=crying}}
|It was mostly just blood pressure charts and insurance information…
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Yeah. Hospitals are kind of boring actually.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Why do you need a cool spot to hang out anyway?
|-
|{{Sprite/Logan|expr=doubleshock}}
|I’m trying to figure out the perfect way to tell Hailey that I…you know…! Is it crazy for me to be nervous about it?!
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|You look really sweaty.
|-

|Intern, can you take care of this? I don’t think he’s going to get out the way until we help him out.

|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Notice those arrows on the ECG? That's syncopation.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|That's what we'll be treating here.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|In a set of seven pulses, the syncopated pulse will be shorter than the other six.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|Usually this means they last half as long.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=explaining}}
|Think of the arrows like booster tiles in Kart Race Krumble.

== Trivia ==
* Despite Something to Tell You being the first story level to use syncopation, the mechanic was originally tutorialized in the Bits & Bops collab level [[Meet and Tweet]], and was first implemented in the [[Level Editor|level editor]] even earlier.
* This is the second level that can end prematurely in response to a low ranking, with the first being [[One Shift More|One Shift More]].

'''Corazones Viejos''' (5-3N) is a level in Rhythm Doctor. It is the Night Shift version of [[Seventh-Inning Stretch]]. Unlike [[Song of the Sea (Night)]] however, this is a full-on level instead of another intermission. It's also the last Night Shift level available.

It introduces swung <code>-x-x-x</code> patterns and swung held beats.
