Current Talk '24 I / Re: And Even Yet Another New Slideshow

Keep in mind that much of what has been dealt with in the slideshow since June 12th was not a part of the pilot. Plus the more interesting bits have yet to even show up. But it is true that the scene is mostly pure exposition.
So far the way the scene plays in the pilot is:
Though as I said, at least we were spared the originally scripted and highly stereotypical "The next twenty-four hours are critical" because that was thankfully dropped.
So far the way the scene plays 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."
Julia ... make(s) her appearance by calling out "Clear the doors!" as Carolyn is brought through the opening doors on a gurney. Also arriving with Carolyn is a nurse.
Elizabeth sees Carolyn being wheeled in on the gurney and she calls out "Carolyn."
the nurse accompanying Carolyn announces "She’s tachy."
after Carolyn's appearance, (Elizabeth) asks "Can I walk with her?" - and after it being indicated that she can, does so as Carolyn is taken off.
I presume (because I don't honestly remember) that Joe also went with her because, as I've said, he has nothing more to say. So, in the pilot at this point, the only major characters left in the corridor are probably Julia and Roger.
Sheriff Patterson ... notices Julia as he arrives and ... asks, "Julia, how is she?" - obviously referring to Carolyn.
Julia ... says "She's hanging on...barely."
