beyond the door

Unending BE - episode 65713

Jim stood dumbfounded in the doorway as the girl who had once been so well known to him. She looked sternly at him and repeated the question, a little slower this time: "do you have an appointment?" despite the way the question caught him off guard he was eventually able to babble out a breif answer: "well no, not actually, but I thought......." her abrupt response cut through him: "well I'm rather busy at the moment, so I'm afraid you'll need to come back some other time. Make an appointment with my secretary sometime and I'll see if we can slot you in. Goodbye." In the seconds space between when she moved back into the office and closed the door locking him out, Jim was sure he could see a figure struggling in Doctor Cutter's office.....

1. dejectedly, Jim gives up. Taking the suit, he turns and leaves the building. With some luck he might be able to make it back in time for the party.
2. Giving it one last shot, Jim knocks again on the door, this time he has the suit ready to show exactly what his purpose is.
3. *concerned for what he is sure he could see in the office, Jim throws his entire weight against the door, knocking it wide open.
4. *Only slightly discouraged, Jim heads back toward the front desk in search of the secretary. Maybe he can make her see how important it is, and get him that appointment now.
5. Noting that Dr cutter is not the only person in the building, Jim sets out to search the building for someone who will listen.
6. Jim decides upon another course of action
