Before I share how the script sets up the new sequence, it needs to be pointed out that almost none of what was originally supposed to take place in Carolyn's hospital room was incorporated into the combined scene in the pilot. In fact, Roger's part in the scene was completely dropped (again) - as was Julia's. However, even though Roger wasn't scripted to appear in what was originally supposed to take place in the hospital corridor, he was inserted into what was taken from that scene for the combined scene. So at least for Roger, it all pretty much works out in the end. Not so much for Julia, who basically gets to deliver only what she was already scripted to say in the corridor scene.
So, on to setting the new sequence as it appears in the script:
EXT. COLLINSPORT MEDICAL CENTER - DAY
Small but modern.
INT. HOSPITAL ROOM - COLLINSPORT MEDICAL CENTER - DAY
As the rhythmic BEEP of a heart monitor sounds in the background, reveal an unconscious
CAROLYN
lying in bed. Her face is bruised and cut, her throat wrapped with gauze. Joe is sitting bedside, holding her hand, while Roger and Elizabeth stand watch nearby. After a moment, DR. JULIA HOFFMAN (attractive, professional) enters.) Joe stands, concerned.And it's at that point that Joe is scripted to say today's quote:
Page 29 - Joe: 'Dr. Hoffman. What happened?'
However, what happens in the pilot is the scene begins immediately with Joe explaining to Elizabeth and Roger that "Ben Griffin found her outside his garage. From the injuries, Doctor Hoffman thinks… (pauses) She must have had some kind of fall." (Which is a reworking of info that was originally scripted to be delivered by an entirely different character in tomorrow's quote. But more on that when tomorrow's quote comes up...)
