[The video shows an expanse of office wall, the twisted cord of a telephone off the hook the only thing breaking up the blank green square.]
Well I'm off shift in five minutes, so if anyone comes back could you please explain to them the difference between a NICU and a creche? Right. You can send them... send them...
[An elbow hoves into view, casting a shadow as it sweeps backwards.]
Just send them up here. I'll stay.
[And there's a brief glimpse of a blond doctor, leaning across screen to hang up before turning back to lift something else into view.]
Come on then, lets see if we can't find your mum.
[Something small, blonde and baby-shaped. The little girl makes a grab for Chase's nose before he turns and, checking the device is recording, holds her up to the monitor. There's a quick close-up of wide-eyed baby blues, then he settles her gently between the crook of his arm and his shoulder. His ear makes a useful handle for tiny fingers, and the state of Chase's hair suggests a few of her grabs for it have missed. The doctor sighs, but all attempts to look stern are being thwarted by small, high pitched gurgles.]
Anyone missing one of these? You don't get here and give me a defining birthmark before midnight I'm going to have to box her with the other unclaimed items that turn up around here. And you don't want to know where some of those come from.
