The ER breathes in a suspended rhythm. Monitors pulse; voices hush. Dana scans the desk, tablet glowing. Robby drifts through rooms, calm and decisive. Abbot listens, nods, plans. Mohan and Whitaker pore over charts. King adjusts an IV; Santos moves fast, sharp. McKay types, eyes down. Victoria watches from the curtain’s edge; Joy tracks it all; James hovers, ready. Al-Hashimi pauses, intense, then steps into her next room. No crisis yet—but the air thrums with anticipation.
