Despite
a
late
evening
Jill
was
ready
to
relieve
the
night
floor
nurse
ten
minutes
early
the
next
morning
.
She
intended
to
obey
Ben
’
s
order
to
stay
out
of
his
proposed
attempt
to
see
the
Man
from
Mars
but
she
was
determined
to
be
close
by
when
it
happened
There
were
no
longer
marine
guards
in
the
corridor
.
Trays
,
medications
,
and
two
patients
to
be
prepared
for
surgery
kept
her
busy
the
first
two
hours
;
she
had
only
time
to
check
the
knob
of
the
door
to
suite
K
-
12
.
It
was
locked
,
as
was
the
door
to
the
adjoining
sitting
room
.
The
door
to
the
watch
room
on
its
other
side
was
closed
.
She
considered
sneaking
in
again
to
see
Smith
through
the
connecting
sitting
room
,
now
that
the
guards
were
gone
,
but
decided
to
postpone
it
;
she
was
too
busy
.
Nevertheless
she
managed
to
keep
a
close
check
on
everyone
who
came
onto
her
floor
.
Ben
did
not
show
up
and
discreet
questions
asked
of
her
assistant
on
the
switchboard
reassured
her
that
neither
Ben
nor
anyone
else
had
gone
in
to
see
the
Man
from
Mars
while
Jill
was
busy
elsewhere
.
It
puzzled
her
;
while
Ben
had
not
set
a
time
,
she
had
had
the
impression
that
he
had
intended
to
storm
the
citadel
as
early
in
the
day
as
possible
.
Presently
she
felt
that
she
just
had
to
snoop
a
bit
.
During
a
lull
she
knocked
at
the
door
of
the
Suite
’
s
watch
room
,
then
stuck
her
head
in
and
pretended
surprise
.
"
Oh
!
Good
morning
,
Doctor
.
I
thought
Doctor
Frame
was
in
here
.
"
The
physician
at
the
watch
desk
was
strange
to
Jill
.
He
turned
away
from
the
displayed
physio
data
,
looked
at
her
,
then
smiled
as
he
looked
her
up
and
down
.
"
I
haven
’
t
seen
Dr
.
Frame
,
Nurse
.
I
’
m
Dr
.
Brush
.
Can
I
help
?
"
At
the
typical
male
reaction
Jill
relaxed
.
"
Nothing
special
.
To
tell
the
truth
I
was
curious
.
How
is
the
Man
from
Mars
?
"
She
smiled
and
winked
.
"
It
’
s
no
secret
to
the
staff
,
Doctor
.
Your
patient
-
"
She
gestured
at
the
inner
door
.
"
Huh
?
"
He
looked
startled
.
"
Did
they
have
him
in
this
suite
?
"
"
What
?
Isn
’
t
he
here
now
?
"
