Complications...

Doctor! Nurse! Anybody! Help!!

Confusion ensues - Medical personnel quickly fill the room and surround Nikita. She has flatlined, and the next few minutes are spent trying to get her heart to beat again - two attempts to restart her heart are unsuccessful, and Sergio begins to face the reality that the actions he took to save Nikita at Konrad's may have been too drastic...

The doctors and nurses are still frantically trying to revive Nikita, yet Sergio's thoughts drift back to that critical moment at Konrad's - He realizes his judgement WAS clouded by his love for her - but what else was he to do? She had just killed two men whom she had known and worked with for years.

A heartbeat! A slippery, quirky heartbeat makes its way across the monitor - she is still alive! She is very unstable, but her heart is beating and Sergio is able to breathe again...

The doctors are still in the room, standing over Nikita and discussing procedures - there seems to be a big disagreement on how best to keep Nikita alive - her brain is still swelling from the head trauma and one doctor insists on immediate surgery to relieve the pressure, because waiting will cause certain brain damage - the other doctor says her heart is too weak and unstable to undergo surgery, that she will certainly die if she is administered any anesthesia.

Sergio tries to help the doctors with their decision by telling them they will both die if Nikita does, so they better figure out what they are going to do quickly and get it right...
