"New Adventures"
Closing Act
Scene opens at the hospital ER desk. Carol is chatting with Doug and Carter...Carter is eating
something snack food wise and Doug is busy making notes on a clipboard.
Carol (to Doug, casually):
So, what's the latest with Chris? I haven't seen him around lately!
Doug (doesn't look up...keeps his attention on his work):
Uh, he's been real busy studying, mostly. He got his CDL recently and was
going to take his test for driving, but, I don't remember when he said that was....
Carter:
His knee has done great! I guess because he's in such good shape but he beat
my schedule for healing by a mile!
Carol (smiles):
I think maybe he had a lot of help and support from family, too.
(Doug looks up at her and grins)
Doug (goes back to his work):
Anyway, he asked me to meet him here today....said he has a surprise to show
me... so I'm waiting for him now...
Carol (looks up and gasps in her breath):
Oh, my God! (gives a soft 'wolf' whistle....Doug and Carter give her a "look")
Well, I'm sorry! There's just something about a man in uniform that brings out
the worst in me!
Chris walks into the scene in full EMT uniform, complete with a radio transmitter and a photo name
badge.
Carter (tugs on his jacket sleeve gently):
Well, Buddy! Would you take a look at this?
Doug (turns to see Chris in his uniform and smiles):
You got in!
Chris (smiles wide):
Best driving score they ever had! And...
(pulls out a schedule from his pocket)
I'm already accepted and pre-registered for the next semester of EMT courses!
Doug :
I'm really proud of you, Kid!
Carter:
Way to go, Chris! Hey, I guess you Wing 'em and we sling 'em, huh?
Carol (winces in mock pain):
Oh, Carter! That's so bad!
Chris' radio suddenly crackles to life and group gives a careful listen to the call that comes in...
Radio Speaker:
Responding Units, Red 21 and EMT 719...
Chris (looks up quickly):
719! That's me!
Doug (grins):
Then, you're out of here, Bud! Just try and bring 'em back alive!
Chris turns and races quickly away...just as he gets to the door, he turns back to Doug with a short
wave...Doug gives him a "thumbs up" sign and freeze the frame to fade...
