"That's nice," she says sleepily. You can see her stifle a yawn. The very thought of depressing, lonely visits to the hostpital seems to have bored her.

"Then... I suppose I won't stop you."

It's fairly obvious that she's watching you, noting your damaged clothing and ruddy demeanor. After a few awkward seconds, a look of terror appears on her face.

"I'm - afraid that I'll.. need to ask you to leave," she says. "Now." The nurse draws closer. You can see her reaching for a syringe in her coat pocket.

You nervously make to leave, and are nearly successful - until she stops you, grabbing at your arm.

She squirts the syringe into the air, emptying it entirely.

"Oh, my. It appears that the shot I meant to give you missed. I'll just have to report that I was unable to stop you," she says in a monotonic, ablative voice.

She pushes you out on your way. You notice a small card tucked into your shirt. Before you can ask her what it is, she seems to have gone.
