Nurse Phoebe

Tension grows making itself visible on Jackie's forehead. Short while later, her phone vibrates uncontrollably, she waits a little before taking the call racking her brain a bit. She slides the green sign on her iPhone with her lazy long finger and places her phone beside her right ear waiting for a response, "Hello? I heard someone from this number called earlier enquiring about Phoebe?" says a tender female voice from the other end of Jackie's phone, Jackie replies, "yes?". The female on the otherside seems like she is in a rush and didn't want to speak over the phone about Phoebe, she ask Jackie if it's possible to meet up at a local park, Jackie agrees to meeting her.

Later that day, Jackie waits for the female. Hours past by and the woman is nowhere to be seen. She then decides to give up and go home, until a stranger in dark clothing, covering their face, approaches her with a familiar voice. "Hi, are you the lady from the..", mysterious woman interrupts Jackie by quickly responding, "Yes.", Jackie then gives an irritated response, "well, you're late and I can't be out this late, especially at night".

The woman then introduces herself as Lisa-Anne, hoping that Jackie would stay after revealing her name to build a trust between them, Jackie introduces herself as well and they start talking about Phoebe. "I only came this late so there won't be many people around snooping on us."

Lisa-anne looks around and leans over towards Jackie whispering, "Phoebe isn't a true nurse, she cheated her way up from nursing school. All she does is go into a hospital or an institute and set the patients she bonds well with free. She doesn't have many friends, you know. So she decided to make her own with coocoo heads. Anyway, last I heard she was still at Stonehearst; she never left. Apparently, she tried to help one of those crazies escape and got caught trying, so they put her in confinement and tortured her." A shocker to Jackie's ear that a nurse was confined just for helping a patient, Jackie felt fearful that it may occur once again but she'd be the one in confinement. Despite having acknowledgment of all that, she continues to help patient 102.

Jackie heads home, waving goodbye to the young stranger. Little did she know someone had broken into her home and burnt the files. Distraughted by what has happened she tries to figure out who would do such a thing. She immediately contacts 911, in case the person was lurking around her home, still. Cops arrive as soon as possible and ask for detail of what happened, Jackie was brief about it since she wasn't home at the time.

It was later revealed that Lisa-anne was in fact the perpetrator, for her being late was an excuse, she had a window of opportunity to break in & wreck the place including the files. Jackie didn't bother with Lisa-anne, since she got the info she needed and had read all the documents in the files.

The next day, she goes off to work to find a note at the front desk warning her not to go further or she'll live to regret it. She ignores the note and continues. Jackie learns that a woman who used to work at Stonehearst Asylum as a doctor visited to see how everyone is and left her a message. Jackie then realises that someone is truly after her, she ran as fast as a leopard from ward to ward, to check if the old doc was still around, but she was gone. She begun wondering why this former Dr doesn't want her to go further with what she had already discovered. She asks her colleague who that was, she responded "Dr. Bloom. Well, formerly known as Dr. Bloom". "Who is Dr Bloom", she wondered.

Jackie then makes an excuse to get chief of staff out of his office so she can snoop a little more and see if she can find any information on Dr Bloom. Unfortunately, she doesn't succeed, so she waits him out; keeping her watchful eyes locked on his door.
