Even though there were so many other patients to keep track of, the nurses had sharp eyes (and there were quite a lot of them), so this attack was noticed almost immediately.

All things considered, the assault wasn't as severe as some other fights patients had tendencies to get into, so a nurse headed over on her own, posture straight and expression stern.

"Now, Ms. Lancaster, you should know by now that you can't treat your fellow patients like that," she warned. She had pulled it out, at least, so hopefully it would stop there.
