Reactions Steve and McAndrew.

DOCTOR (CONT’D)

Thanks everybody. Sorry about that.

(We need to leave everything as is

for the coroner. Disconnect

monitoring, oxygen and fluids but

JACKIE:

KATE:

And from downstairs I didn’t hear a

struggle. By the time I got

upstairs not one of you was giving

Danny first aid.

ROD:

What did Danny say to you?

(Off Kate’s silence.)

He whispered something to you. What

did he say?

KATE:

I’m not sure what he meant.
