Synopsis

The player treats Paige, Mr. & Mrs. Stevenson, and Richard Hugh through their respective heart problems. Each patient has a singing role in the level. At the start of the level, Paige attempts to do a proper check-up of Mr. Stevenson. Her pager goes off right as she tries to resolve the miscommunication issue that has prevented Mr. Stevenson from talking to his wife, leaving the issue unresolved. This leads into both Stevensons singing about the waiting time they've had to endure in order to get help, remaining unable to see each other. Paige sings about being overworked and the miscommunication she's been having. Finally, Richard Hugh sings cynically about doctors, expressing his negative views on them, and his belief that they should receive pay cuts. Near the end of the level, Paige sings about her inability to have experienced "dinners, weddings, coffee sessions" with her friends, as a result of her medical studies and her current profession, emphasizing how her patients have "been waiting for so long." The level ends with Ian returning, an hour late to handover. Paige is initially upset until she hears Ian explain that his mother had an episode, and he attempted to call the hospital to let Paige know of the delay, but that this news did not seem to reach Paige. Paige, taken aback, apologizes and expresses sympathy, as Ian expresses gratitude for her covering his shift. The two then discuss the circumstances around Mr. Stevenson's injury, as he looks at a framed photo of his wife, still unable to communicate with her. After the level, Ian expresses gratitude toward the player and Paige, recommending that she take a break. Paige then thanks the intern, letting them know that she'll drop by the vending machine whenever they're ready.

[Fade to black]

[Fade to hospital room]

	To all my friends that I have lost,
	While crossing bridges I have crossed,
	Dinners, weddings, coffee sessions,
	Sorry I was never there.
	You see, I've been on call this week,
	I'm barely getting any sleep,
	I'd love to catch up, I really would,
	But they've been waiting for so looooong...

[Ian enters]

	There you are handover was an hour ago what took you so long-
	Heyhey Ada sorry i'm late-
	I'm - I'm so sorry my mother had another episode, the carer was running late,
	I- I couldn't just leave her there-
	I called up the hospital to try and let you know but I guess they didn't-
	..Oh.. no they.. I'm sorry to hear that.
	It's fine. Thanks for covering Ada.
	Really appreciate it.
	I.. hope the patients didn't give you much trouble?

[Camera starts panning to Mr. Stevenson, holding a framed photo of his wife]

..No, no, not at all..

[Voices begin to fade]

	Hey, okay, so,
	Mr. Stevenson had his fall yesterday, he's - he's doing fine.
	But we still don't know if it was mechanical or syncope.
	He doesn't remember?
	No. X-rays were all clear.
	Any history of AF?
	Not on the records.
	Aspiration pneumonia?
	No, his lungs are fine.

[Voices fade out]

	I can take it all from here. Thank you, both of you.
	You did great.
	Thanks, man. Phew.
	Ada, you look exhausted. You should clock out, I can handle everything.
	Yeah, yeah. I'll grab something to eat and make my way out.
	Intern. Thank you. That was a real rough one. We couldn't have done it without you.
	Starting to feel like you're the glue holding the place together.
	Good luck with the next shift.
	When you're ready, maybe we can drop by the vending machine? I'm starving.
