It is the second boss level in the game. It introduces [[Window Dance]].


== Synopsis ==
The player treats Cole and Nicole through their chest pains, as they remain in their separate rooms. Like the prior boss level, the Connectifia Abortus virus is present and actively interferes in the level. Through the level, Cole and Nicole sing about each other, making lyrical references toward their addictions and their desire to see each other. Motivated by a strong emotional realization that strikes them both, Cole abruptly leaves his room, running down the hall in a dash to go see Nicole. The level ends with him barging into the cafe, panting out of exhaustion, as she looks at him in surprise. He then lifts up his head, smiling.


== Synopsis ==
After the level, Cole asks for extra time to stay with Nicole as she closes up shop, to which Paige readily obliges. He then remarks that the doctors shouldn't worry about him, claiming that he's found a way to make music without the use of caffeine, hinting that Nicole is his newfound inspiration. Ian then runs in, out of breath, telling the player and Paige that the virus had once again appeared, but that the player had already taken care of both patients before he could inform them. Paige then instructs the player to move back to the Main Ward, saying that they'll check up on Cole and Nicole another day.

They say that I'll get through

When it all comes... Kicking in again

I can't stay away from you
I... can't stay away from you
I... I'll make my way to you
I... I'll make my way to you
No more tries and no more nights
No more tries and no more nights
Will keep me away from you
Will keep me away from you
I've finally found, the key to set me free
I've finally found, in you, the key to set me free
At least I hope you'll be
At least I hope you will be

* The final beat of this level is heart-shaped. This has no difference in gameplay and is simply meant to signify the strong emotions Cole is feeling toward Nicole.

* The janitor's dialogue mentions "that hoodie dude and coffee girl [were] singing at each other across the hall." This heavily suggests that the song for 2-X is, in-universe, being sung by Nicole and Cole when the level takes place, with the female voice belonging to Nicole and the male voice belonging to Cole.  
* The janitor's dialogue mentions "that hoodie dude and coffee girl [were] singing at each other across the hall." Additionally, the fail dialogue mentions explicitly that Cole and Nicole are singing together. This confirms that the song for 2-X is, in-universe, being sung by the two of them.
* Technically, this is the first level to introduce the player treating more than one patient at the same time. However, Nicole and Cole's heartbeats are synced on the exact same beat, so there is no difference in terms of actual gameplay. As such, this level does not introduce juggling multiple rows of different heartbeats.

* The voice clip "Let's go!" used in the song is sampled from the easter egg at the end of [[One Shift More]].
