A few days later Connie had returned to work and she was visiting grace on her breaks. News about Connie and Cal still hadn't come out yet.

Down in the ED was not as calm as it was upstairs.

'This is absolutely ridiculous Zoe' Connie said starting over the Zoe

'Connie, it's not my fault St James' closed down their ED!'

'Ladies, we need to stay as calm and professional as we possibly can.' Ash said to them both.

Connie glared at him 'Dr Ashford are you questioning my professionalism?'

Ash got a shiver as Connie glared at him, he hesitated 'No Mrs Beauchamp, I'm just saying that some of us need to remember where they are and what they're dealing with.'

Connie looked at Zoe and smirked.

'What Me?' Questioned Zoe

'I'll leave you to it' Connie said. She made her way to the office.

Sat in the office Connie was debating to go up to see how her daughter was doing, but she remembered the chaos outside of the office. Connie was just filing her last bigs of admin when Zoe burst in.

'Sorry Connie, but have you not realised how busy it is out there?'

Connie didn't even bother to turn around 'yes, Dr Hanna I'm not blind'

'Well get out there and do something!'

'Well 1. The others are doing okay they're as calm as possible 2. Though they're calm it's still a train crash waiting to happen 3. We have no protocol about what's actually going on so we are all entitled to be working but not necessarily on a patient, so I'm filing then I was going to get going outside.' Connie replied with purpose

Zoe was shocked at Connie's response, but knew it was all true 'fine then Queen Beauchamp, let's see what you're made of then.'

Connie smiled knowing that it would go well, she'd already planned on her head what she would have done.

Connie and Zoe walked out the office

'Cal, Lilly, Rita. I know it's busy but could you round everyone up and gather round the nurses station, I'm going to put some plan of action into Dr Hanna's chaos' The 3 nodded.

5 minutes later all the staff on shift were around the nurses station.

'Sorry to take you all out from tonight's work everyone but this chaos needs a plan of action. So Dr Hannah, Myself and Ethan will be situated on Resus, Cal you be at stand by if we need you. Robyn, Fletch, Rita can you take cubicles. Tess and Charlie you can triage any minors and time wasters in reception. All others can you be runners ready if something happens in a corridor. Sorry everyone to have changed tonight's plan.'

'Now that's someone who knows how to run a department' Charlie whispers to Tess

'Definitely, but why did Zoe ask her to take lead'

'Okay you to I'm flattered that you admire the nights protocol. Dr Hanna asked me to do it because she didn't think id be able to handle it. Now go and triage please.' Connie said walking up behind them

'Nice work boss' Winked Cal

'Caleb not now.'

'Mrs Beauchamp how's your daughter?' Asked Robyn

'Shes still in upstairs but she's doing okay. I feel awful I haven't been able to see her today.'

'Oh don't feel bad your doing a whole lot of good down here.' Robyn Smiled

Connie felt warmed by that 'Thank you Robyn and thank you for your concern about grace. Fancy working in resus instead tonight?'

Robyn got excited 'ooh yes please!'

Suddenly the resus doors swung open to reveal Guy Self. Zoe rolled her eyes thinking Connie had rung him.

'My oh my it's changed it's tune down here, who put this into place?'

Zoe looked away knowing she would get into trouble for letting Connie take over.

A few said in chorus 'Mrs Beauchamp.'

Guy just simply smiled and walked off.
