February 9, 2021
Recap: So far, every character in this book has been exposed to this new virus, the Coronavirus, and everybody but a couple of them has gotten it, and Straton and Cooper were on the phone and Straton fell.
Now, the Story
Act 3 scene 1
At the hospital, Straton is very sick, doctors don’t know how to help.
Laurens/doctor: I am so sorry we don’t know how to help you, ‘cause this is very new to everyone
Straton: I completely understand, and I knew I would go down early.
Finn/doctor: You’re lucky you even got a spot in the hospital, this place is crowded with people who have caught COVID.
Straton: I’m not surprised.
All exit
Act 3 scene 2
In the main lobby of the hospital, Cooper is trying to visit Straton
Cooper: I have to visit him! You expect me to just let him die alone?!
Nurse: Please calm down. Nobody is allowed to enter the building, and it is almost guaranteed that you would catch it.
Cooper: Who cares if I catch it? It’s not like I’m married or anything!
Cooper tries to dodge the nurse. The nurse stops him.
Nurse: If you don’t stop, I will be forced to call the cops
Cooper starts to tear up
Cooper: Please, even if it is just for one minute, I just want to see him.
Nurse: I’m sorry, but I can’t let you do that.
Cooper gets in the car. Drives away.
Act 3 scene 3
Back at his house, Cooper calls the rest of the group. Everyone answers
Cooper: Sorry I’m telling you this now, but you know how Pat died from this new disease?
Wes: Yeah, why?
Cooper: Well, Straton has it too now, and the doctors don’t know how to help him.
Miles: Oh my gosh! I’m getting in my car right now to visit him
Cooper: No, they won’t let you, they said it’s too dangerous.
Taz: But he is dying here!
Cooper: I have already tried. They said no.
Wes: This is awful, They should let people go in one at a time.
Wes hangs up. Scene switch to Wes. Wes gets in the car
Wes: I can’t believe it. My own brother is going to die alone!
