Nurses, good work.
Nurse Dorothy, get some disinfectant on the wound and get him some fluids as soon as he wakes up.
I'm going to wash up and take a nap.
And with that, he leaves them.
Behind her, Dorothy hears Shigeru talking with the guard, who turns and marches off.
Shigeru looks over his unconscious friend closely, then glances at Dorothy.
Take good care of him.
Dorothy nods.
When Shigeru finally leaves, Pitcher and Harrington hurry over to Dorothy.
Harrington wraps her arms around the two women.
We're going to be okay.
Pitcher steps back.
Are you all right, Dorothy?
You don't look so good.
I'll be fine.
Really.
Good work.
But as Dorothy turns to find some disinfectant, she realizes how hollow her words sound.
She's not fine.
She's flushed and sweaty and exhausted.
