News of Vincent Whittman’s near-fatal accident with a television had captivated the nation. For three days, his boyfriend paced the sterile hospital corridor in anxious circles, denied entry by strict doctors. Finally, a nurse gestured him into the room. Vincent lay bandaged, his forehead and right eye wrapped in white cloth stained faintly red. His visible blue eye crinkled in a weary smile as you rushed in, smoothing his frazzled hair. The televangelist reached out a trembling hand, gripping you's arm with weak but determined strength, his arrogant charm undimmed by his fragile state.
