(That night)
(At Evergreen Falls Central Hospital)
(In Christopher's ward, An unconscious Christopher lays on his hospital bed as the life support machine, which is connected to him, beeps very loudly. Suddenly, A dark figure appears in the room then leisurely walks towards the life support machine and stares at Christopher for a moment... Then the figure violently disconnects Christopher's oxygen supply from the life support machine)

Figure: (smiling s@distically)

(The figure takes out a razor-sharp d@gger & holds it to an unconscious Christopher's neck. Just then, Loud footsteps are heard approaching Christopher's ward... causing the figure to flee instantly)

Nurse Jodi: (she enters the ward & looks around in puzzlement) Huh? Was someone in here? (she shrugs her shoulders) Hmph.

(Nurse Jodi walks towards Christopher's life support machine and notices his oxygen supply disconnected)

Nurse Jodi: (t€rrified) Good heavens!

(She swiftly re-connects the oxygen supply to Christopher. Luckily, The machine continues to beep normally as Christopher breathes)

Nurse Jodi: (she sighs in relief) Phew! He's still breathing fine. Thank goodness I came in here on time or else we would have lost a life. But how did this happen? (she glances around the ward in fright) That means someone WAS in here...

(That same night)
(At The Johnson's Residence)
(In Katherine's room)

Katherine: (to herself) Argh! What the h€ll am I supposed to do now that my book got burnt in that b@stard's room? How am I supposed to keep track and records of my---

(She stares at herself in the mirror then notices her d@gger lying on the bed, from the mirror's reflection)

Katherine: Maybe I don't need a book afterall...

(She picks up the d@gger then begins to carve different numbers on the wall)

(Next Day)
(In the living room; Mike sulks quietly on the couch)

Mike: (sulking)

Tara: (she walks into the living room) H0ney, Aren't you going to work today?

Mike: (sadly) Work? There's no way I can work when my son is lying unconscious in the infirmary

Tara: (hopefully) I am not worried. After our lengthy prayer session with Pastor Joseph yesterday, I know God will perform a miracle (quietly) I know he will...

Mike: (noticing her outfit) Are you headed somewhere?

Tara: Yes. To Dr Evan Peters house, I have a session with him today. But before that, I'll drop by at the hospital to check on Chris

Mike: Okay

Tara: Please don't think too much h0ney

Mike: (he nods his head) I won't

(Tara briefly smiles at Mike then exits the house)

(Later)
(At Evergreen Falls Central Hospital)

Tara: Good afternoon, Doctor

Dr Angus: Afternoon ma'am

Tara: I'm here for my son, Chris. (pointing to the bag in her hand) I brought him something

Dr Angus: Oh yes, I was just about calling you and your husband concerning your son... He's been showing subtle signs of recovery. Earlier today, His eyelids were observed twitching and his fingers were observed fidgeting. That's good progress.
