Under the Chief
A new hire on her last probationary night is pulled aside by the chief while the head nurse waits outside.
The premise
Harriet's probation ends tonight, and the head nurse has made no secret of wanting her out. The chief of surgery sees things differently, and he says so in the quiet on-call room, with the door locked. Outside, a jealous colleague paces. Inside, the evening is about to turn into an unscheduled lesson.
Best seat for viewers whoenjoy hospital politics, a locked door and an underdog who finally gets noticed.
Curtain upStills and a silent clip from the opening of the two free acts, in order. Nothing past the setup.

Act IEpisode 1, free with no account
On her final shift of probation, Harriet suspects the head nurse is counting the hours until she is dismissed. The chief of surgery has other ideas. He notes how quiet the floor will be and says the new girl is with him tonight. They go to the on-call room, where Harriet fumbles an apology and is told she looks just right. The chief tells the head nurse not to let anyone interrupt.
Act IIEpisode 2, free with a Candy account
Harriet is mortified to realize she has just sworn at the chief of surgery on her last night, and he says he enjoys it. He tells her Vanessa is a different type, and that is why he picked Harriet. Outside the door, the head nurse listens to the silence stretch and calls out to ask whether the doctor is still inside. Nobody answers.
