[Peter is on a hospital bed with tubes everywhere and he has an oxygen mask on his face. Lanys solemnly enters the room and sees Peter and she lowers her head]
Lanys: (softly) because of me, you are in this position. I'm so sorry and...
[Lanys takes out a paper from her pocket]
Lanys: and you wanted to tell me all this. I'm so...
[The Doctor enters the room and he looks at Lanys]
Doctor: Are you family?
Lanys: No.
Doctor: So, do you know him?
Lanys: Yes, almost all my life. He's my...
Doctor: (interrupts) he's been in and out for a while. The medicine is working.
Lanys: Tell me, Doctor. Is he going to be okay?
Doctor: Peter...
[The Doctor points at Peter]
Doctor: He's fine, he just wanted us to put all those things up, because he wanted to impress someone. He's just sleeping right now.
Lanys: (angrily) I'll kill him.
[Lanys walks closely to where Peter is sleeping]
Lanys: (screams) Peter Smith!!!
[Peter opens his eye lids rapidly and looks scared when he sees Lanys]
Lanys: (angrily) How dare you? Why do you want to scare me like that?
[Peter takes the oxygen mask off and looks at Lanys]
Peter: You were the one to scare me, I was asleep.
Lanys: Really? You told the Doctor to put all these things and contraptions on you, so you could impress someone.
[Peter smirks and responds]
Peter: (smiling) Oh yeah, I did.
[Lanys gets close to Peter and grabs his shirt]
Lanys: I...
[Lanys doesn't continue speaking until she hugs Peter]
Lanys: ... am glad you're okay. You scared me.
[Peter responds the hug]
Doctor: Well, I'll leave you two alone.
[The Doctor leaves the room. Lanys lets go of the hug and looks at Peter]
