[Rank screen, if level passed]:

	Wow! That was great!
	Yeah! That rocked!
Samurai	...
Samurai	Good.
Cole	Well, gee, I, uh...
Cole	I didn't expect to gather such an audience.
	Encore! Encore!
	Okay, okay. Concert's over. Everyone back to your wards.

	Feeling any better?
Cole	I think so.
Cole	But I still just can't focus...
Cole	I want to keep making music, but, it's tough to get in the zone.
	I can only imagine it's hard to feel inspired in a, uh, hospital.
Cole	It's just all this second-guessing.
	What do you think causes it?
	(Hey, I think we should move on. We don't really have time for this.)
	(But maybe this is our chance to help?)
Cole	It's tough not to feel like an imposter. Like I'm just copying other producers...
Cole	Actually, y'know, maybe you can check out this track I'm working on?
Cole	Tell me what you think, and stuff.
	(There's a lot of stuff to do, we need to get going.)
	(Hm. Fine. I feel bad though.)
	Sorry, gotta go, we'll check in later!
Cole	Oh. Yeah, for sure. See ya.

	Hey doc, quick question.
	Why does that hoodie guy's room look like some kind of vacation getaway?
	Meanwhile, my "Janitor's Office" is a broom closet with a child-size desk squeezed in it?
	I'm not trying to start trouble! I'm just asking...
	...when the hoodie guy feels all better and goes home, can I have his room?

Lyrics

File > New, stare at nothing for an hour or two,
Drop in a beat, like a hundred other artists would do,
Click in some chords, like a hundred other artists could do, like
Probably gonna hit that "don't save changes", again
Used to write a song a day...
It's just that lately my perfection's in the way, of me,
and I can't make no changes to save me...

Wish I could write more, care less,
Wish I could write more, and care less,
Write more, and care less,
and care less

Sometimes I'm angry I'm not doing better
than I thought I'd do at this point
I punish myself by depriving my health
of the things that I like until I fix this
But it doesn't really help I just get more depressed
I do even less cause I can't work when I'm stressed
And ignoring my friends, means when I'm finally done,
there'll be no one left to make this all worth it...

oh I've been thinking too much
and now two hours have passed
and I've got nothing to show...
I guess tomorrow
We'll give it another go
