A few hours earlier…
Scott was relaxing in his hospital room, casually eating from a cup of cherry jello.
Dr. Bellwood stood near the edge of the bed as he adjusted his glasses.
"Do you need more jello, Mr. McQueen?"
Scott scraped the last bit from the plastic cup.
"Yeah, more will do."
The medical director looked back at the two attending nurses and gave them a sharp nod, gesturing for them to go fetch some more. Turning back to the bed, Scott glanced around the somewhat bare walls of the room.
"Can we get a TV in this room?"
Scott asked, setting the empty cup on his lap.
"I need to know what's happening on the news."
He didn't want to miss a moment of the Megaman domestic abuse saga, nor the ongoing Sage drama. At the same time, however, there were still many other matters he was worried about… as usual, his plate was unreasonably full.
Dr. Bellwood immediately squeezed his face like he was deeply annoyed by the request.
And well, maybe he was.
