Super Battleworn Insomniac, also known as Super Oriental Insomniac (1-XN) is a level in Rhythm Doctor. It is the Night Shift version of Battleworn Insomniac.

Synopsis

After the player returns to the hospital, Ian greets them, along with Paige, as he explains the situation to Paige; hospital devices overheating, network instability, and electronic malfunctioning. Confused, Paige keeps inquiring, as Ian reveals that all patients' conditions seem to be as usual, except for the Insomniac, whose heart rate is "out of control." Paige then urges the player to treat the Insomniac and prevent the virus from taking over the building, emphasizing to "focus on the seventh beat, no matter what." The player treats the Insomniac through more intense glitches and disruptions caused by the Connectifia Abortus virus. Halfway through the level, the virus breaks off a chunk of his heart, causing his heartbeat to be changed to 7/8th time, with the player having to rapidly adjust to this irregular time for the rest of the level, as the glitches and disruptions rise to such an intensity that the player has to rely almost solely on their own internal rhythm, as both the visuals and music become wildly unhelpful and distracting. After the level, the power comes back on, as all the patients in the hospital gradually gather around Ian and Paige, every single one of them thanking the two doctors for their hard work and care. Paige responds happily and tells all of them that she'll be right with them after they return to their rooms. Paige then tells the intern that they are "officially part of our Middlesea Hospital staff now, as far as she's concerned," and asks them to stay and perfect their rhythm treatments for each patient. She thanks the intern for all they have done, stating that there is still more work to do and that she'll get started whenever they're ready.

Transcript

[1-XN unlocks]
IanSpriteS.png You're back. Thank god.
IanSpriteS.png You can still hear me, right?
IanSpriteS.png S-something happened while you were gone, it almost severed your connection to the hospital.
IanSpriteS.png Phew, looks like Paige is back for her shift too.
PaigeSpriteS.png What's going on? Why is the power flickering on and off?
IanSpriteS.png You're just in time! I-I'm not sure what's happening.
IanSpriteS.png Our network just became really unstable, it keeps losing connection.
IanSpriteS.png My PC started overheating, all of them are.
IanSpriteS.png And now even the electricity in the building is giving out!
IanSpriteS.png The backup generators have taken over, but they're starting to overheat too.
IanSpriteS.png Even my phone is acting strange...?
PaigeSpriteS.png Did something happen? Did a power line go down?
PaigeSpriteS.png Wait, forget it. How are the patients? Is everyone okay?
IanSpriteS.png I-I started checking everyone as soon as I could.
IanSpriteS.png Nobody's condition is out of the ordinary, except for...
IanSpriteS.png ...that chronic insomnia patient from earlier.
IanSpriteS.png His heart rate is out of control.
PaigeSpriteS.png The virus that was jamming our signal?
PaigeSpriteS.png Whatever, it doesn't matter. Intern, let's go. We need you.
PaigeSpriteS.png We can't let this virus take hold of the building, with so many patients here.
PaigeSpriteS.png Just focus on the seventh beat, no matter what.
[Interlude 1]
On first 2 attempts:
IanSpriteS.png A complete relapse?!
IanSpriteS.png B-but...
IanSpriteS.png How...?
On 3rd attempt or higher:
IanSpriteS.png Do I have to sound surprised every time?
PaigeSpriteS.png Yes. Quit whining.
IanSpriteS.png ...A relapse?!
On fail, before second interlude:
IanSpriteS.png D-don't give up!

[Interlude 2]

IanSpriteS.png The virus..
IanSpriteS.png It's-- it's broken off a chunk of his heart!
PaigeSpriteS.png Hope you're good with irregular time, doc.
PaigeSpriteS.png Here we go.

[Interlude 3]

IanSpriteS.png N-Nice!
PaigeSpriteS.png Keep that same rhythm in your head now, stay calm.
On fail, after second interlude:
IanSpriteS.png O-oh dear...
PaigeSpriteS.png This rhythm got confusing...
IanSpriteS.png Try drumming on a table in "seven-eight" time.
IanSpriteS.png If you can master that, this beat will be no problem!

Rank screen, if perfect:

IanSpriteS.png Wow...not a scratch!
PaigeSpriteS.png Hmm..
PaigeSpriteS.png You're really something, huh? Incredible.
PaigeSpriteS.png It looks like he's going to be okay...
IanSpriteS.png T-the power's back on...!
IanSpriteS.png Everything seems to be working now.
IanSpriteS.png I h-had no idea this virus could infect the building itself...
IanSpriteS.png Where does it keep coming from?
PaigeSpriteS.png If we keep working, you should eventually be able to figure it out, right?
IanSpriteS.png I think so, yeah...
IanSpriteS.png Phew...
PaigeSpriteS.png Well. We did it.
PaigeSpriteS.png Great work, everyone!
IanSpriteS.png Now what?
PaigeSpriteS.png I'm sure it's only a matter of time before something else unexpected turns up.
PaigeSpriteS.png So until then, let's just keep doing what we always do.
PaigeSpriteS.png Making the rounds and checking in on our patients.
PaigeSpriteS.png I need to check whether Mr. Stevenson's bed settings are comfortable.
PaigeSpriteS.png I'll also doublecheck that Mrs. Stevenson has tapioca pudding, it helps her swallow her pills.
PaigeSpriteS.png Whatever it takes to make everyone's stay as comfortable as possible.
PaigeSpriteS.png Oh, speaking of patients...what about Hailey? I hope her trip went okay.
HaileySpriteS.png I'm back! It went great!
HaileySpriteS.png And look, I found someone who was trying to run away!
Cole Spritesheet.png Shhh, I told you I'd come back!
Cole Spritesheet.png Did everybody miss me?
IanSpriteS.png Did you leave the hospital just so you could drink coffee without us noticing?
Cole Spritesheet.png What? No.
IanSpriteS.png There's a cup in your hand right now!
NicoleSpriteS2.png Welcome back, dude. I'm sure somebody must have missed you.
Samurai V1.png ...
Samurai V1.png ...I missed hearing his music.
NicoleSpriteS2.png Anyway, I was looking for Dr Paige.
PaigeSpriteS.png Me? Why?
NicoleSpriteS2.png Because the power's back! Everything was bugging out, there was a flash of light...
NicoleSpriteS2.png ...and now it's all fixed! That must have been you two and the intern, right?
PaigeSpriteS.png Yes! We've got it all under control. If anyone has any questions, I can help-
LoganSpriteS.png You did it! Thank you!
HaileySpriteS.png Did you get scared in the dark? Your legs are shaking.
LoganSpriteS.png N-no they aren't!
MrsStevensonSpriteS.png Oh, the lights are back on!
MrsStevensonSpriteS.png Are you two the doctors? Maybe you can help me!
IanSpriteS.png Y-yes ma'am, if you go back to your room we'll be right with you!
MrsStevensonSpriteS.png Thank you!
Insomniac's Spritesheet.png Thank you, doctors. It feels like a weight has finally been lifted.
PaigeSpriteS.png Of course! Let us know if you feel any more pain or discomfort.
MrStevensonSpriteS.png Hello? What's all the commotion out there?
MrStevensonSpriteS.png Where's my cane? If there's a party, don't any of you be starting without me!
PaigeSpriteS.png S-sir, your physical therapy definitely hasn't started yet, please stay in your bed!!!
NicoleSpriteS2.png Looks like you're getting even more popular around here, doc.
NicoleSpriteS2.png Thanks for everything! Let me know when my rehab starts, I'm ready when you are.
HaileySpriteS.png Thanks for letting me go on that trip for my grandma, Dr Paige!
Cole Spritesheet.png Thanks for all the advice on finding motivation.
Cole Spritesheet.png If you're ever bored, you should come by and hear this new playlist I put together.
Samurai V1.png Thank you, doctor.
PaigeSpriteS.png You're welcome, everyone! If you all head back to your rooms, I'll gladly visit you all so we can catch up.
PaigeSpriteS.png And you, intern. Think you can stick around, and perfect your rhythm treatments for them?
PaigeSpriteS.png You're officially part of our Middlesea Hospital staff now, as far as I'm concerned.
PaigeSpriteS.png Thank you so much, for everything you've done so far.
PaigeSpriteS.png There's still lots to get done.
