Nurse : *to Lucy* Madam, can you tell me your name
Lucy : *incomprehensible*
Angela : She's delusional, that's why we brought her
Nurse : *checking her vitals* in fact, she has a very high fever. Can you tell me her name and age
Angela : Lucy Chen, 29
Nurse : *searching for her name on her tablet* Found her *reads her medical file* I can read she got shot and was operated
Angela : yes
Nurse : I need to check her wound

*She takes off the bandage*

Nurse : her wound is really infected
Angela : yes and she didn't take her meds for over a week
Nurse : I'm going to put her on an IV and disinfect her wound

*She puts Lucy on an IV*

Lucy : *becomes lucid again, panics* I want Tim
Nurse : who is Tim ?
Angela : her boyfriend
Nurse : oh yes, I read his name on Lucy's file, he's her trusted person. Did you call him ?
Angela : that's not possible, he's here, intubated
Nurse : oh so we'll have to change her trusted person for now. *To Lucy* Miss Chen, do you hear me ?
Lucy : *nods*
Nurse : we have to find you a trusted person, who do you want ?
Lucy : Tim
Nurse : we need another one please
Lucy : Angela
Nurse : thank you, *to Angela* who is Angela ?
Angela : that's me
Nurse : okay, I'll need you to fill some forms later
Angela : of course

*The nurse heals Lucy's infected wound. She cries because it's painful*

Angela : *holds her hand* squeeze my hand if you need

*After 20 minutes, the nurse has finished*

Nurse : okay, I've finished. I'll give you some painkillers, they will put you to sleep. You will stay here for a moment. Then we'll bring you to a room

*The nurse puts the painkillers in the IV and leaves*

Lucy : *while falling asleep* *to Angela* don't leave me
Angela : don't worry Lucy, we'll stay here

*Angela and Wesley sit down next to Lucy in the examination room. Angela fills out paperwork to be Lucy's trusted person*

Angela : I hope she's gonna be fine, she's going through hell. First she was abducted, she spent some time in the hospital, then Tim almost died, and now she's back in the hospital
Wesley : they're both gonna make it
Angela : I hope

*She puts her head on Wesley's shoulder. He wraps his arm around her. They both fall asleep*
