Tamara Collins:
LUCY?!

Angela Lopez:
You're awake?!

Tim Bradford:
What the hell are you doing texting?

Lucy Chen:
Relax. I'm fine. Just woke up. Figured I'd check in.

Celina Juarez:
Oh my God, Lucy, I'm so sorry.

Lucy Chen:
Celina, stop apologizing. None of this was your fault.

Nyla Harper:
You're supposed to be resting, not texting us.

Lucy Chen:
I'm bored already. Plus, I know you guys were freaking out.

Tamara Collins:
We were! I was literally about to cry.

Aaron Thorsen:
Lucy, I'm sorry. I swapped shifts with you.

Lucy Chen:
Aaron, shut up. Seriously. Don't do that to yourself.

Tim Bradford:
I'm coming to your room.

Lucy Chen:
You don't need to—

Tim Bradford:
Too late.

Tamara Collins:
Oh, she's going to hate this. Tim probably looks ready to lecture her.

Angela Lopez:
I give it five minutes before she throws the phone at him.

Nyla Harper:
More like three. You know how stubborn they both are.

Celina Juarez:
I still can't believe she's already awake and texting. After everything, I thought it'd be days before we heard from her.

Aaron Thorsen:
She's Lucy. Of course, she bounces back this fast.

Wade Grey:
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. She still needs to recover.

Tamara Collins:
Do you think he's giving her "the look"?

Angela Lopez:
Oh, 100%. He's probably crossing his arms too.

Nyla Harper:
Classic Tim Bradford: Protective Mode.

Celina Juarez:
She probably already has a comeback ready.

Lucy Chen:
Tim's here now. He's glaring at me, so I guess I'll stop texting.

Tamara Collins:
Tell him we said to stop glaring. You're a hero.

Angela Lopez:
Exactly. You deserve praise, not lectures.

Lucy Chen:
He says being reckless doesn't count as heroism.

Nyla Harper:
Oh, I can hear him saying that.

Tamara Collins:
Lucy, ignore him. You saved someone, and we're proud of you.

Angela Lopez:
Seconded. You went above and beyond.

Celina Juarez:
I'm still in awe of what you did.

Aaron Thorsen:
Same. You didn't even hesitate.

Tamara Collins:
She's texting us, so she must be okay, right?

Angela Lopez:
She said she's fine. Let's believe her for now.

Wade Grey:
She's in good hands.

Nyla Harper:
Tim's going to make sure she follows every single rule, whether she likes it or not.

Tamara Collins:
Good. Someone has to.

Lucy Chen:
Tim says I'm done texting now, so I guess I have to listen.

Tamara Collins:
Tell him we're watching.

Angela Lopez:
Yeah, he better not overdo the tough love.

Lucy Chen:
Too late for that. But seriously, guys, thanks for checking in. I'll be fine.

Celina Juarez:
You scared the hell out of us, Lucy.

Lucy Chen:
I know. Sorry about that.

Tamara Collins:
Don't apologize! You're the one who got hurt.

Angela Lopez:
We'll take care of everything until you're back. No rush.

Nyla Harper:
And no arguing with the doctors.

Wade Grey:
Or Tim.

Lucy Chen:
You all gang up on me, and I'm the one in the hospital bed. Unbelievable.

Tamara Collins:
That's what family does.

Angela Lopez:
Exactly. We've got your back, Chen.

Aaron Thorsen:
For real, Lucy. Just rest.

Lucy Chen:
Alright, alright. I'll stop. Tim's glaring again anyway.

Tamara Collins:
We love you, Lucy!

Angela Lopez:
Take care of yourself.

Nyla Harper:
And let Tim handle the glaring for all of us.

Wade Grey:
We're here if you need anything.

Lucy Chen:
Love you guys too. Thanks for everything.

Tim Bradford:
She's officially done texting. Resting starts now.

Tamara Collins:
Good. Make sure she actually listens.

Angela Lopez:
And update us if anything changes.

Nyla Harper:
We'll stop texting, but we're not going anywhere, Lucy.

Tamara Collins:
Don't let her sneak out of the hospital, Tim.

Angela Lopez:
Yeah, we're counting on you.

Tim Bradford:
I'll keep her in line.

Lucy Chen:
You guys are ridiculous.

Tamara Collins:
And you love us for it.

Lucy Chen:
...I do.
