:28:04
Yes, it's quite nutricious.
- Possibly.

:28:07
Not quite the diet for
a grown man. Nurse!

:28:11
Just take this to the patient
in the isolation ward, will you?

:28:18
Yes, sir.
:28:21
Don't be frightened.
He won't hurt you.

:28:25
Won't he indeed. Just a moment!
There's something I want to say.

:28:32
A hospital's no place for secrecy.
:28:35
Doctors spiriting hooded figures
around cause comment.

:28:40
Why wasn't he properly admitted?
Why the isolation ward?

:28:44
He's not contagious, is he?
- No, he's got chronic bronchitis,

:28:48
and he's been beaten.
- Why not the General Ward then?

:28:51
He's seriously deformed.
:28:56
I fear it could shock the patients.
:28:58
Deformed, is that it?
ls he ultimately incurable?

:29:04
Yes, sir.
- But you must be aware,

:29:06
that this hospital
doesn't accept incurables.

:29:10
I'm aware of that.
But this case is quite exceptional.

:29:35
I quite appreciate your problem.
:29:38
Why not contact
the Royal Hospital for lncurables?

:29:42
Perhaps they might find him a place.
- Yes. Would you like to meet him?
