== Synopsis ==
== Synopsis ==
After the events of [[Super Battleworn Insomniac]], the entire cast of the game's long-term patients and main two doctors gather around in a level that serves as a playable credits screen. Through the majority of the level, the song features a voice that sings what can be interpreted as the collective thoughts of every patient residing within the hospital, expressing their positive views toward the doctors and their desire to help out in any way they can. The level flashes through all of the long-term patients of the game, with a brief appearance of Ian, and a prominent appearance of Paige, where she gets the spotlight halfway through the level as a list of names can be seen flashing through the top and bottom of the screen as she runs through the hospital hallways. Then, toward the end of the level, a female voice sings, accompanying a focused treatment of Paige as she stands on a balcony. This voice can be assumed to be Paige's, as the voice sings about how "they've been waiting for so long" and how "it's nice to help around sometimes." After the level ends, the player returns to the title screen of the game.
After the events of [[Dreams Don't Stop]], nearly the entire cast game of the game gathers around in a level that serves as a playable credits screen. Through the majority of the level, the song features a voice that sings what can be interpreted as the collective thoughts of every patient residing within the hospital, expressing their positive views toward the doctors and their desire to help out in any way they can. The level flashes through nearly all of the long-term patients of the game, with a brief appearance of Ian, and a prominent appearance of Paige, where she gets the spotlight halfway through the level; a list of names can be seen flashing through the top and bottom of the screen as she runs through the hospital hallways. Then, toward the end of the level, the player focuses on treating Paige as she stands on a balcony, briefly singing and reflecting on her time at the hospital. After the level ends, the player returns to the title screen of the game.

You're up before the Sun is up
You're up before the sun is up
You're done after its gone

But still the work keeps piling up

Wish I could lend a hand

But I don't know much medicine

All I can give is thanks


All I can give is thanks
Help me help you help us

Better make me understand

If there's a weight to share together

Take my helping hands

No one makes on their own

Just tell me what you need from me
Just tell me what you need from me
We share with you our meal, sure to take our pills
We share with you our meals, be sure to take our pills
Take proper care of ourselves

* In the Act 5 update, the balcony seen at the end of the level was updated, now reflecting the one present within [[Dreams Don't Stop]]. It features a more polished design for the background art, a soccer net visible from the left, and baseballs strewn over the floor.

* this  a thank you to everyone who did the rhythm doctor program
*This is the first and only level thus far to have the rank text be the same for every letter rank. This is likely done for emotional effect, as the game seeks to thank the player for having played through the story, regardless of their performance on this particular level.
