Now, why does today's graphic for the slideshow feature a black oval with three question marks in it:
Well, for one, considering that Julia's part from the hospital room scene was all dropped when the hospital room scene was combined with the corridor scene, obviously she doesn't deliver today's quote -
Page 29 - Hoffman: 'She's cracked three ribs and lost a lot of blood. The next twenty-four hours are critical.'
- (and what a shame not to have the stereotypical, er, of course I mean classic doctor's remark that the "next twenty-four hours are critical" be a part of the pilot
), nor does Julia do what the script indicates she does before delivering today's quote, which is:
Hoffman checks the I.V. dripping blood into Carolyn's system.And for two, the character who actually delivers the next line in the pilot doesn't even appear in the script, nor has the actress who plays her ever been identified in anything I've ever read about the pilot - so not having any idea who plays her, it's impossible to feature any type of photo of her in the graphic.
But, again, what does happen next in the pilot? Well, the nurse accompanying Carolyn announces "She’s tachy." And for those not familiar with the term, tachy is short for tachycardia, which I'm pretty sure means Carolyn has a more rapid heartbeat than would be considered normal. (And if I'm wrong about that or not giving the term its full due, I'm sure Midnite will correct me and provide a fuller explanation.
) And given that Carolyn has been attacked by a vampire and lost blood, it's hardly surprising that she's suffering from tachycardia.
