'''Song of the Sea''' (2-4) is a level in Rhythm Doctor. The Night Shift version is [[Song of the Sea (Night)]].

It is a cutscene level and has no beats to hit. The player can press the spacebar at any time to produce a note from a backing piano track.

[https://www.wikiloops.com/backingtrack-jam-100266.php The track] was created by jjdf.

== Synopsis ==
The player is invited into the cafe during quiet hours, where they are able to play notes on a keyboard as they wish. Cole walks into the cafe, prompting him and Nicole to have a long conversation where they banter and discuss several topics. At some point in the conversation, Nicole mentions that the song currently playing is a song she made when she was younger, which elicits a positive reaction from Cole. This then prompts Nicole to question Cole on why he needs coffee to write music, to which Cole responds by mentioning his creative struggles and how caffeine helps him focus. The two then bid goodbye to each other. After the level, Ian is sent to check on Cole. Paige and the player check on Nicole, who is initially healthy but then experiences a sudden chest pain requiring treatment.

|Welcome. Take a seat.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Er, you're probably sitting already.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|The rush hour's over, so things should be a little more low-key.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Make yourself comfortable. There's a dusty keyboard over there, maybe you can toy around with it.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Oh, look who it is.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Hey! I'll get my usual.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|The morning usual or afternoon usual?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Afternoon. I'm just vibing for now.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Coming right up.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|You met the intern finger too, huh? Wild.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Yeah. I was just talking about you earlier, actually.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=jamming}}
|Really?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Yeah, I was talking about how great the stuff on your Bandcloud is.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Woah, for real?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=upset}}
|...nah, you're lying.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Yeah. I'm lying.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|I've got a job already. Can't be your "pass out my mixtapes" person.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Sure you can. We're at that level of friendship, right?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Almost. Keep workin' at it, bud.
|-
|{{Sprite/NicoleB|expr=pour}}
|Here's your order.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole}}
|Don't tell number twenty-seven that I let you skip them in line.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=coffee}}
|Secret's safe with me. Thanks.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|I know it's in a hospital, but is it weird to like the vibe in here?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole}}
|You like it here?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Yeah. It's got atmosphere, y'know?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole}}
|Haha, whatever you say.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole}}
|Aside from doctors, I'm used to serving hipster loners in here.
|-
|{{Sprite/NicoleB}}
|So I'm glad I can help maintain your pristine, natural habitat.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Hey...
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole}}
|Just kidding. Well, not really.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|I like this song. What is it?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|I mean, it doesn't really have a name.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Just an old file I still put on sometimes.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Wait... is this YOU? That's you, on guitar?
|-
|{{Sprite/NicoleB|expr=pour}}
|Yeah. This is from a while ago. I used to dabble.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=jamming}}
|Woah, that's awesome. I didn't realize you were a musician.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Heh, I'm not sure I'd call myself that. I just strum around.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|But still...this is great. It sets the mood.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|I barely even remember making this.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|It's like my younger self is here, keeping me company with her guitar.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Maybe that's why I keep it in rotation.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|To keep myself company.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Makes sense to me. I get that.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Y'know, you mentioned something yesterday, that you need coffee to write music.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Why is that?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|I don't know. Sometimes I can't come up with ideas.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Other times...I just get in my own head.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Like, "maybe I accidentally stole this chord progression from something I already heard..."
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=stress}}
|I get trapped in that...it's frustrating.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=coffee}}
|But when I drink coffee...it helps me stop thinking about that stuff.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|I can stay up late, so late that I can't even think straight.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=coffee}}
|Then, finally, I can write music.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Well, glad I can help, then. All finished?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Yeah. I should probably head to my room.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole|expr=jamming}}
|See ya around, Nicole.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Thanks for the chat. Later!

{|
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|S-so that's two of our main SVT patients having episodes in one day.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian}}
|And both relapsed into the very habits causing it. (So much for self-control.)
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|To be fair, you can't just kick a habit overnight.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|We should check in on them one more time before our shift is over.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige|expr=notepad}}
|Ian, you go find Cole. The intern and I will check on the barista.
|-
|{{Sprite/Ian|expr=tired}}
|A-alright.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Hey guys. What's up?
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Just checking in. How are you feeling?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Okay, for now. My shift's almost over.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|I haven't taken any more smoke breaks. But it's tough.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Hard to stay numb during work. Coffee people are so impatient.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Have you been able to take your mind off of it? Does anything help?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Hmm. Heh, actually, that red hoodie guy sent me a song he made once and now the song's stuck in my head.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|So in a way, I guess that earworm sort of helps time go by.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Honestly, if every customer could be more like that dude, each day would be a lot easier.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|...!
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige|expr=baffled}}
|What's wrong?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|My chest. Not feeling great.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|It'll be okay. The intern will help.
|-
|{{Sprite/Paige}}
|Are you ready? Stay focused on the beat, no matter what.

|I heard you playing piano in the cafe earlier.

|Not gonna lie, it sounded like you were straight-up mashin' on the keys.

|I'm not sayin' it was bad! I'm just sayin' what I heard.

''[Level start]''
{|
|[Lucky]
|Uh. Who are you supposed to be?
|-
|[Miner]
|Howdy!
|-
|[Miner]
|Sorry, am I in your way? I thought this was, like, the fitness room.
|-
|[Miner]
|I had a bit of a scare the other day, with some chest pain.
|-
|[Miner]
| So, I've been trying to be a little more cautious about my health.
|-
|[Miner]
|An old buddy of mine used to tell me, "You've only got one body! You better treat it right!"
|-
|[Miner]
|I should've listened. And after getting a lil' spooked on that train ride, I figured I could at least give this hospital a visit.
|-
|[Miner]
|How about you? What are you in for?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Oh, uh...something about a rotator cuff. Can't use my arm.
|-
|[Lucky]
|Now I'm stuck here. It sucks.
|-
|[Miner]
|Hmm. How about we do a workout together?
|-
|[Miner]
|That friend I mentioned showed me all kinds of stretches.
|-
|[Miner]
|But before that, I wanna feel the difference in strength between your two shoulders.
|-
|[Miner]
|Let's try something...
|-
|[Miner]
|Hold your arm out and gimme a big thumbs up.
|-
|[Miner]
|Good! Now flip it to a thumbs down if you're tired of me already.
|-
|[Miner]
|I'm gonna gently cup my hands around yours.
|-
|[Miner]
|You'll feel a slight push from me, but try slowly moving your arm up and down.
|-
|
|[placeholder for misses and whatnot]
|-
|[Miner]
|I think that's enough!
|-
|[Miner]
|Now, we'll do the real thing.
|-
|[Miner]
|Relax and let your mind wander. You might hear people from outside.
|-
|[Miner]
|That's perfectly fine. Just clear your mind, feel the rhythm, and do the reps at your own pace.
|-
|[Miner]
|Let's begin. 20 reps, now.
|}
''[After 5 reps]''
{|
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Yo. Did you see who got admitted here the other day?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Lucky Jonronero.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|...who's that?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Seriously? The...baseball player? On the Middlesea Scales?
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Like, one of the biggest names on the team?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|...
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|All-star pitcher? And, as of this season, number one for homeruns?
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|Not ringing a bell. I don't do baseball.
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|Okay. Well. He's a local celebrity.
|-
|{{Sprite/Cole}}
|That makes two of us!
|-
|{{Sprite/Nicole|expr=stir}}
|...not really, no.

''[Phase 2]''
{|
|[Lucky]
|"One of the biggest names on the team"...
|-
|[Lucky]
|...if that's so true, how come nobody's reached out?
|-
|[Lucky]
|No phone call from Coach, no visits from my teammates, no flowers or "get well soon" card...
|-
|[Lucky]
|All I got was a couple of pieces of fanmail. At least someone remembers me...
|-
|[Lucky]
|What's the point of all this again?
|-
|[Miner]
|It's just a little test. And yup, looks like that shoulder got real weak.
|-
|[Lucky]
|If it's so weak, why don't I just work out? Pump it back into shape.
|-
|[Miner]
|Ha! If you try to lift weights, your body'll topple like a stack of twigs.
|-
|[Miner]
|You need some gentle tension...
|-
|[Miner]
|Oh! Hold on a tick...
|-
|[Miner]
|I've got some bungee cord in my bag!
|-
|[Miner]
|This'll be perfect. Now, grab the cord.
|-
|[Miner]
|Slowly pull it inward, without turning your body.
|-
|
|[placeholder for misses and whatnot]
|-
|[Miner]
|That's the exercise!
|-
|[Miner]
|Easy, right? Just feel the rhythm, and let your mind wander.

|20 more reps, now.

|I still can't find him.

|So sorry for the wait, follow me, we'll get you moved right away.

|Oh, thank you kindly...
|-

|I'll make sure the nurse knows where you're staying now, and we'll move over all of your belongings.

|Will there be enough room for all of us? Even my children?

|I wasn't expecting everyone here to be so...chatty.

|I don't know. Every hospital visit I've ever had was all business.
|-

|Get in, get out. No small-talk, no life story.

|Aren't we here to get patched up so we get back out to work?
|-
|{{Sprite/Samurai}}
|...

|Anyway. I know you're tryin' to help, but...I still don't really feel anything.

|Exactly! It doesn't hurt, right?
|-
|[Lucky]
|Uh...no?
|-
|[Miner]
|Then you're doin' swell!
|-
|[Lucky]
|Alright. I did your workout. Now what?
|-
|[Miner]
|Now we rest up for a second...then we do it again!
|-
|[Lucky]
|Again?!
|-
|[Miner]
|Yep. The point isn't for it to be difficult...it's for you to do over and over. Like a routine.
|-
|[Lucky]
|And then...I'll be back to peak performance?
|-
|[Miner]
|I can't promise that. But if you keep at it...you'll get your movement back eventually.
|-
|[Miner]
|Let's do another set.
|-
|[Miner]
|This will be our cooldown, so let's do them slower.
|-
|[Miner]
|Hold the stretch for three beats for each rep, instead of one.
