Hey!
I just hooked the new patient up to the defibrillator and...
Well, I've never seen anything like this before.
His row... it's shorter than it should be!
Whatever this patient went through, it must have been extremely rough.
His heart is barely holding it together.

Hi there. That's, uh, an interesting way to greet a patient. Are you supposed to be the doctor on call today?
Well...I'm one of them, I guess. I'm Ian.
[Mark (explaining)]
Nice to meet you. I'm Mark.
[Mark]
As you guessed, I've had some bad history with heart health.
[Mark (lookleft)]
And I feel like I should warn you...it tends to flare up even worse when I experience, um...moments of anxiety. It's a long story.
Good to know! I'll write that down for Dr Paige. (Managing patient anxiety is more her specialty.)
Anyway!
Intern, you know by now that the Rhythm Defibrillator is programmed to treat patients on the seventh beat .
But given Mr Booker's current condition, it seems you'll be hitting on...
...beat five!
[Mark (explaining)]
That's two less than seven!
Fantastic obervation, Mr Booker.
[Mark]
Y'know, I've been to a lot of specialists. None have been able to make heads or tails of my symptoms.
[Mark]
Every prescription, every remedy...nothing's helped. So don't beat yourself up if you can't help either.
[Mark]
The only reason I decided to come to Middlesea Hospital is because I've heard you've got this new "experimental treatment".
[Mark (explaining)]
So give it a go, "intern". Let's test it out and see how it feels. I'm curious to see it up close.
Alright! Let's show him what rhythm defibrillation can do. This time, uh, with five beats!
