Context

Text

Matt: Please stay here with me.

Andy: You're on shift?

Matt: Yeah. I stole an ambulance.

Andy: Matt!

Matt: I'm kidding. But I'm not supposed to be here.

Andy: You need to get back to the hospital.

Matt: I will.

[Conductor: All Aboard!]

Matt: That’s your train.

Matt's beeper goes off. He silences it and shoves the beeper in his pocket. She looks at him. The sound of the train doors closing, and the hiss of the train releasing its brake. Matt looks at her, just standing there.

Matt: (cont’d) You stayed.

Andy drops her suitcase and pulls him into her arms, holding him tightly. He picks her up and spins her around.

Andy: How could I go?

He sets her down and picks up her suitcase. They walk down the platform side by side.

Andy: (cont’d) Do you think they’d mind if I wore a slinky black dress to their Christmas inn?

Matt: I don’t give a damn if they mind or not. Festive is festive.

Andy reaches over and takes Matt's hand, as they continue off the platform.
