Later. Morris gets wheeled out into the hallway from the operation room, his eyes are closed. Sandy smiles with excitement.
Morris gets wheeled into his room as Dr. Yish approaches Sandy. They talk in the middle of the hallway, having a serious conversation. They make direct eye contact with each other. We see them talking, but we hear nothing. Sandy closes her eyes, when she opens them up tears run down her face.
Dr. Yish looks at his watch. He walks away. Sandy stands in the middle of the hallway watching Dr. Yish walk away. Her face shows disappointment and loss of hope in Morris’s future.
EXT. NORFOLK HOSPITAL ENTRANCE - DAY
Sandy walks through the revolving door. Once she takes a step outside she takes a deep breath. She crotches down by the entrance covering her face with her hands, sobbing. Not noticing her parents are approaching.
MRS. DAVIS
Sweat pea are you okay? You worried me on the phone.
Sandy looks up at Mrs. Davis. Mrs. Davis hugs Sandy. Mr. Davis stands next to Sandy.
MR. DAVIS
What happened? Your mother still won’t tell me what went wrong.
Sandy wipes her tears.
SANDY
Nothing pa. It’s just Morris the doctor says he hasn’t seen any improvement in Morris and he’ll be like this the rest of his life. He advised me to look into
(barely getting the words out of her mouth, she starts crying again) nursing homes.
Mrs. Davis rubs Sandys back.
MRS. DAVIS
Morris is a strong man I know he will get through this and so will you.
SANDY
But I can’t do
“We’re going to keep him over night for observation. We’ll call you as soon as we have the results on the scan.”
Claire ran to the downstairs closet, putting on some shoes. Isaac looked through the door hole, making sure no one was around. Continuing to think about Malessica, he knew she didn’t have a spirit to forewarn her about the Sangrine Syndicate. Grabbing the house phone, he called her Manor, waiting for an answer.
Later. All the lights are shut off in Morris’s room and he continues practicing the words.
Morris is sleeping, but he makes a facial expression that shows he is in pain.
“Where are they?!” Billy’s anger started to rage. He rushed up the stairs after yanking his hand from hers to search for Mr.Temple and Mr.Mulholland.
Morris tries to muster up all the strength he has to move his leg. But it won’t budge. Dr. Yish nods his head.
Morris lies there lifeless, unable to move his leg. Dr. Yish’s pager vibrates, he checks it.
Tells him he does not want him to go back to Wittenberg but stay with him and Gertrude
Doug looks about. Unable to recognize Morris, Doug is just about to leave when Morris locks eyes with him. Doug freezes. Completely appalled by Morris’s appearance, thinking it’s another patient. Not realizing it’s his best
He covers his mouth in disgust, taking a step backwards. Out of the previous patients, Morris is in the worst condition. It looks as if Morris is going to die any second judging by the way he looks, and how many machines are hooked up to him.
“Josiah, all these moments will be lost in time like tears in rain” Saraya replied softly. “I don’t have the answers that will make everything all better, but know that
Morris walks out of the hospital with his lovely wife by his side. His eye is black and blue. His arm is wrapped in a cast. Morris is not wearing glasses. Although he can’t see, he still has sight of his goals.
Sarah stops to speak with Keri while I walk back to my office. I’m bewildered by the friction between her and Thom. The last thing I need to witness. When I reach her office, I grab my purse. I tell Megan, “I’ll be home if anybody needs me. See you later.”
“So let me get this straight, you’re going to find a legendary ring, slay a dragon, then marry a princess?” My friend Mary questioned. She was walking around the room still facing me.
A few moments later. Pat helps Ashley up. She sprints to Morris. His face is pale white, gasping for air.
