The player simultaneously treats the [[Miner]], [[Hailey]], [[Logan]], and the [[Samurai]] through their respective heart issues, as a dusty fog rolls through. The level starts with the Miner being treated, with Hailey coming in shortly after, followed up by Logan, and finally, the Samurai is treated independently before being combined with the other three patients, with all four being treated at the same time. After the level, the Miner thanks the player for their treatment of him once again, and asks for them for advice, before soon finding out that the intern is unable to talk through their screen. He then remarks that he'll try to seek medical help whenever he can. Ian then contacts the player from the hospital, asking for their help in treating Mrs. Stevenson and her birds. | |||

* | *Upon release, this level used employed a heavier use of visual effects in an attempt to further challenge the player. The section of the screen containing the first three patients would notably flip upside down, before flipping itself horizontally. It would repeat this sequence once more before the level ended.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NZAooiXsIDw</ref> This screen-flipping effect would be removed in a later update to reduce the difficulty for new players. | ||
*Upon release, the level featured [[Richard Hugh]] as the third treatable patient; Richard is known to incorporate fast Classic Beats, and was presumably present to match said heartbeat in the level. However, in an update which came after the level's previous difficulty update, Richard would be replaced by Logan. The heartbeat, and gameplay itself, was left unchanged. This change may have been made for several reasons. It might have been in an attempt to follow the story and theming better, as Logan is the love interest of Hailey, who can be assumed to have been missing her for the time that she spent away from the hospital. Additionally, Richard Hugh is a character who views the Middlesea Hospital with distaste, making his presence in the level somewhat unfitting. Finally, the heartbeat in question lacked any [[Row Xs]], which is a characteristic feature of Richard's heartbeat lines. | |||

*In the Act 5 update, this level received several changes. | |||
::*Along with its Night Shift counterpart, this level received a visual change to more heavily include the use of fog. The background itself was also changed, featuring slightly different background fog and a different shade of blue for the background sky. | |||
::*The screen's rotation effect has been heavily toned down, now featuring a much more tame version of it, with less frequency than was present in prior versions. | |||
::*Logan and his heartbeat line will temporarily move out of view when the Samurai is being introduced. Once Logan's heartbeat is made to join in with the three other patients, his sprite and heartbeat line will move back onto the screen. This is an entirely visual change and does not affect gameplay from prior versions. | |||
::*In prior versions, toward the end of the level, green musical notes would float upwards from the bottom of the screen, as pink petals fell across the screen. These two effects have been entirely removed, likely to reduce screen clutter. | |||
