"We should probably leave the doctors to their work in here and get ourselves checked out. At least I'm going to. I want to make sure what I think just happened isn't a symptom of something."
Had Mary become the source of this... maybe it was a disease instead of a gas? If so they had probably contracted it, and it was spreading alarmingly fast.

Leaning over to Steve, ”Dud, stop thinking about the work. We just saw a guy get sucked up and spit out. In my book that’s way more interesting.”Velmont said:
After the TV explodes, Dunstand drops to the floor, seeing that he’s the only one flat on the ground and that it probably was to late any way he gets back on his feet and dusts himself of. Muttering to himself, ”dam ghosts and there exploding TV’s.”Majin said:
”Are you for real? That guy is dead, I don’t think there is a lot the doctor can do for him, he’s not God even if most of them think they are. “ Looking back at the remainder of the TV, ”Don’t anyone tell me they didn’t see some weirdae1vart0n said:
in the TV before it exploded. TV’s don’t explode from power surges this isn’t Hollywood.

"Maybe it interest you more, but if I want to play next session, I must..." Steven doesn't have time to finish his sentence when the man next to them die and all the troop of doectors and nurse come to his rescue without much result.
But Steven is fascinated by the TV. As it explose, he instinctively protect his face and then look back. The TV is finished. "Cool... I never thought I would witness that."
Rogers suggest to leave, but Dunstand seems to prefer to stay, and Steven nods, not wanting to miss anything wierd that is happening. "I am no expert, but I thought ghost where confine to a place to hunt? Would that be a ghost from here or one of the theatre who has followed?"

When a bunch of nurses and a doctor ran into the room the others went into, Gabriel looked over with concern, but chalked the sudden bustle up to coincidence and regular hospital occurrence.
When the sounds of a small explosion, shattering glass, and the panicked screams of nurses reached the studious historian, Gabriel shot a worried glance at the receptionist and began putting his things away in a hurry. Afterwards, he directed all of his attention towards Mary's room.
Coincidence only goes so far...

Pete steps out into the hall for a moment to catch his breath and to give the professionals some room to get the old man out of there. He crouches down against the wall, his heart running a couple of gears too high. He wonders for a moment whether he's hyperventilating.
He's pretty sure that before the TV exploded that he saw... something. He's not really sure anymore what it was, but it wasn't natural. The rationalist in him searches desperately for an explanation, turning things upside down and inside out.
Maybe there was a gas leak in the room... nitrous oxide, maybe. Do they even use that in hospitals? He shakes his head. He didn't smell anything. And he sure as hell didn't feel like laughing....
Looking up, he catches the concerned look of the professor-type down the hall. He shrugs and shakes his head, pushing himself back up into a standing position. He has no idea what to do with himself in this type of situation...
Sticking his hand into his pocket, he starts walking briskly down the hallway toward the waiting room, digging a handful of change out of his pocket. Coffee, he thinks to himself, standing in front of the vending machine and counting out the amount. Coffee will definately make everything better.

"I can't deny the TV exploding was unusual, though not difficult to explain away. The fact that it coincides at least with this gentleman's death seems strange at first, but they could have a related cause, such as a sudden change in air pressure.
The doctors will need to take care of the cadaver, and someone will need to clean up the glass. Not to mention, this poor young lady is probably frightened. I can't force you, but personally I'm going to step out in the hallway where I'll be out of the way.
Giving up a theory was never something he liked to do too early, but air pressure he thought was about the only thing he could think of that would cause both events.
Before leaving he turned toward Mary.
"I'm sorry you had to go through this. I hope we'll be able to speak again soon."
In the back of his mind he was considering staying and consoling the girl further, but first things first. This hospital room was getting crowded. Roger calmly stepped out in the hallway.

The ride to the hospital had been eerily quiet, but Gabriel still recognized the driver from earlier. If it were possible for the man to look any more wretched than usual, Gabriel didn't believe it until he saw him counting change in front of the coffee vender. The historian pulled out a one dollar bill and strode up next to him.
"Here," Gabriel said, offering him the bill.
"Here," Gabriel said, offering him the bill.

After making his selection on the machine Pete watches hazily as a cup is dropped from the machine and the mixture of coffee begins filling the container. After a few short moments he removes the cup of coffee and turns to face a concerned looking Gabriel.
Mary's room being cleared except for hospital staff, the door is closed after the body of the old man is wheeled away. The desk nurse catches the eye of one of you and explains that Vincent has been set up in a nearby room and could accept visitors anytime. "Room 422," she adds, pointing the group of you down the hall.
~Vincent~
Vincent comes to groggily and the first thing he feels is a splitting headache. Moving a hand up to his forehead the boy feels a nasty lump near his temple.
"Any closer and you might have been in serious trouble young man," the voice of what appears to be his doctor invades his eardrums.
