Help me!

Help!

Help me!

Help!

Jim,

this is Roslyn,

the friend I told you about.

Hey Roslyn.

Good to meet you.

Hello.

So Beth has filled you in

on what we're looking for?

Uh, collating all

the ER records

so they can be

shipped to storage,

then copying policies

and procedures

and the templates

for the QA forms.

So you've done

this before?

Well, the last two ERs

I worked at were closed down.

At this rate there won't be

any emergency rooms left.

Well, in this case

it's the whole hospital.

The building is being torn down

as part of the land redevelopment.

Can I ask you something?

Why do you want to work the night shift?

Well, my husband--

he drives a cab

and he works nights,

so if I work days

then we never get

to see each other.

Besides, you know,

I kind of need the peace and quiet.

I've worked at the ER

the last five years, so...

And you're not worried

about being here alone,

you know, in light of

what's been happening?

God, Jim, are you trying

to scare her off?

Oh no, that's fine really.

It's okay.

Well, I'm sorry about

the state of the E.R.,

but there will be a 24-hour

guard on duty upfront, okay?

Okay.

Welcome to St. John's.

Thank you.

So once each one's been

labeled and collated,

ust mark the front

of the box like so

and stack them

in the laundry room.

Once we finish all the paperwork,

we'll get to work

on copying procedure forms

and what-have-you.

It's not exactly

nursing,

but what are you

gonna do?

How long have you

worked here?

I worked lCU at County

and then ER here for two years.

But I don't know,

I never liked this building.

It's too old.

Nothing worked properly.

Beth tells me you were

born at this hospital.

Yeah, I grew up

around here.

Oh, so then your charts

must be buried

somewhere here

in all of this.

Do you want a coffee

or something?

I'm gonna get

a coffee.

No, you know what?

I'd better be getting home.

I normally catch the bus

an hour before you're due on.

I just wanted to wait around

and show you the ropes.

Anyway, if you have

any questions,

Beth said she'd be

stopping by later.

- Okay.

- Okay?

Bye.

These files are endless.

By the way, one of the psych ward doctors

got the same job as you,

so he'll be up on the fifth floor collating

the psych ward records.

So you're not gonna be

here alone.

Okay.

I'm gonna get back

to County.

Beth, seriously,

thank you,

really.

Good night.

Um, can l--?

I can't believe they closed down

this hospital as well.

Do you know

that the nearest E.R.

is now over 1 6 miles

from here?

And that place

is swamped.

Health care in this

country--

it's going

to the dogs.

I don't think

you should smoke in here.

Why?

Because of

all the sick people?

Uh, I'm just kidding.

It's plastic.

I'm trying to quit.

Is there something I can

help you with, Detective?

We found a woman's body

over on 9th Street.

Another one?

I was just wondering

if maybe you'd heard

or seen anything

suspicious.

You think it's the same guy--

the one that the papers are calling

the Nighthawk

or something?

Well, we don't know.

You know, I never understood that.

Why pretend a serial killer

is some kind of animal

or a comic-book hero?

It's ridiculous.

Well, it's publicity.

"Man Kills Woman"--

it just doesn't cut it

as a headline anymore.

If we want

the media's help,

we need to jazz it up

a little bit.

You know, a lot of women

around here--

they're not wearing

their jewelry anymore.

Why is that?

They don't want

to be next.

They don't want to

encourage him.

Hmm, well,

that's not why

I'm not wearing

my wedding band.

Is that--

is that blood?

Nothing serious,

I hope.

Just a paper cut.

Well, you're

in the right place.

Thank you.

Did I frighten you?

I didn't mean to.

You must be...

- Roslyn.

- Roslyn. Roslyn, right.

- I'm Dr. Clement.

- Hello.

Looks like these files

belong down here

rather than

on the fifth floor.

I just wanted

to let you know

I was in the building

so as not to startle you,

but I seem to have failed

miserably in that regard.

No, Beth told me

you would be here, so...

Yes, this place can be

a little unsettling at times.

Yeah, I'm--

I'm just starting

to figure that out.

Should I take that

personally?

No, I'm sorry.

No, I didn't mean--

I'm kidding.

I'm kidding.

I don't know if you've met

the security guard yet,

but he is-- yeah.

And I've been hearing

some noises.

Really?

What sort of noises?

Do you mind my asking?

Like singing.

Singing?

I think I'm being

a little bit paranoid. I'm sorry.

No no no no,

that's quite all right.

I'll tell you what:

why don't I take a quick look around

just to make sure?

Would that make you feel better?

A little, yeah.

Okay, all right.

Thank you.

Nothing here.

So you're--

you're British?

Mm-hmm.

I came over on

a foreign-exchange program

as a med student

and, well,

never went back.

How is it

you don't have

Iike an assistant

or someone like me

to handle all

the paperwork up there?

Well, the psychiatric department

doesn't quite have

the budget of E.R.,

so some of us doctors

agreed to a tradeoff.

And also

some of the files

are a little bit sensitive,

if you know what I mean.

That's it.

Seems to be all clear.

I'm sure it was just

music from a passing car

or something

that you heard.

I'm sure, yeah.

Um, if that security guard

is bothering you, you know,

I can always talk

to the administrator.

- Oh no.

- No, I mean, it's not a problem.

You know, just knowing

that there's someone else in the building,

I feel much better.

Okay, well, if you hear

any more strange noises,

you know

where to find me.

- Thank you.

- Okay.

Cole, are you home?

It's Cole.

Leave a message.

Hey, I thought

you'd be home.

I guess you're putting in

some overtime.

Anyways, listen, if I'm

asleep when you get in,

do not wake me,

because I'm beat.

Um, see you for lunch maybe.

Okay, bye.

Hey!

What the hell happened to this place?

Where is everybody?

What are you talking about? This place

has been closed down for weeks.

And the closest

ER now?

County.

Wait a minute.

What happened to her?

The Nighthawk.

- Hey.

- You scared me.

Sorry.

Are you all right?

Hi.

Hey.

The guard let me in.

So you got a job

in a bomb shelter.

Wow.

Um, hungry?

It's your favorite.

I missed you

the last couple days.

I really missed you.

Cole, Cole, stop it.

Are you okay?

Damn.

Where were you

last night?

Um...

oh, I worked

a double and--

wait for it--

I went to the gym. Told you.

What, at that time?

Well yeah.

I'm downtown.

The gym's downtown.

I gotta take the opportunity

when I can, you know.

God damn.

Hello, goodbye.

Got a fare

and gotta go,

gotta go.

Um, are you gonna

be okay?

It is what it is.

Mm, okay.

Love you.

Hello?

" And someone's

gonna cry "

" 'Cause in my heart "

" I finally "

" Made up my mind "

" I can't say "

" It's not been good "

" Or that you're

to blame "
