The argument that had just transpired echoed in the ears of the nurse, and she was filled with sympathy.
But Rosemary didn't hear it. She was on the phone with Grandpa Beck, confirming their research findings.
Grandpa Beck relayed the results of several tests to her, and she shared her input. It was Grandpa Beck's job to tweak accordingly.
Hearing the nurse, Rosemary asked the person on the phone to hold on, then turned to the nurse,
"What's up?"
Suddenly, the sound of a single beep echoed from the EKG, as Carol gave up hope of survival, her eyes closing.
"Damn, the patient has no will to live," the nurse said urgently. "Dr. Rose, what do we do?"
"Grandpa, get the antidote here as soon as you're done!" Rosemary hung up the phone, immediately diving into the rescue work.
"Hey, I didn't finish. This antidote hasn't passed the final test. If there are any side effects, who's responsible?"
