BILLIONAIRE’S DAUGHTER PRETENDS TO BE A NURSE AIDE TO TEST HER GREEDY RELATIVES

You can still drive out of here, Yetitza. I want to see them when nobody’s watching. Then be nobody. This badge says Suarez. Aides get checked by nobody. Your uncle signs every audit himself. Then I’ll read his handwriting. Three doses gone last month. I’ll find the hand. You’ve been on that stain 11 minutes. Some people are only good at front floors. I’ll finish it, senora. Move that bucket. The board walks through at 8:00. You dropped this. Anatomy? Night classes. Please don’t tell them. New aide. She’ll last a week. They always do. My mother’s in 412. I can’t lose this job. Room 412 is due at 1:00. Where did you train, Swedes? Wherever they let me. Nereida? Your mother slept through the night. Thank you, Doña Caridad. She’s stable. Sit with her at lunch. Who taught you that fold? An old nurse, years ago. 412 is on a charity bed. Your mother’s bed costs us money. I work double shifts, señora. That bed is mine to give. For now, doctor. That fold was retired 8 years ago. Do you have the key? Someone is coming. We must be quick. [sighs] Page 41. Write three doses out. Four? Four sells better than three. You didn’t see anything here. Say it. I didn’t see anything. Your mother’s bed, remember? Those four vials never existed. She hasn’t opened her eyes since Sunday. Her 1:00 dose is missing. Missing? Who signed for 4 12s morphine this morning? Not me. I never touch that cabinet. The ledger says Suarez. [crying] Please, you need to wait. It is not safe out there. I have to find them now. Three doses signed out on your badge, Suarez. I was on linens all morning. The night team confirms that. Security is downstairs. Bring the ledger. This is theft. Say the word out loud. Nobody said theft yet. The aide signed three times. That is not my handwriting. Whoever wrote this breaks the same letter. Third floor, noon, alone. No cameras were ever installed on this floor. Sign this resignation and the theft disappears. Or the cleaner is fired by Friday. The cleaner is fired in the yes. Her mother moves to a county ward. You would move a sedated woman? I am not signing anything, senor. Then the police will read that ledger. My father always gets his signature. You didn’t sign that page. I know hands. I know hands. Why would you believe me? I buried the man who built this place. Long shifts make people careless, Dona. She came for a locker, not a shift. Which one? I saw them take four vials. You’re his daughter. Same eyes, same hands. His name is on the door. Matias Laces stopped at 44. That’s yours. You already know what’s inside. Open it. This needs a witness from nursing. You are one, Donia. Somebody put those there yesterday. Everyone says that. I need you to leave. Walk out that door. The police are on the road already. The night log clears her. Read it. One phone call, that’s my right. Make it quick. Delfina, convene the board at 10:00. The board is seated. Nine of them. His own requisition. Same broken letter. The ledger never left my locker. Then we have both hands. Señorita, who are you? This session was called by the owner. Bring the ledger here. Page 41, three doses. This is the real clearance. I think you know what this means. His requisition. The same broken S. I am Yaritsa Betancourt. I own this hospital. You stole four vials and forged that name. This proves nothing. The board removed your signing authority. Unanimous. I gave 30 years to this building. Your names go to the state board. 30 years and I never trusted you once. [applause] 10 new beds. No charity list. Caridad runs this wing. Reinaldo leads clinical. 30 years, Doña. I am proud to present you with this award. Oh my goodness. Thank you so much. You truly deserve this recognition. The badge said Suarez. That was enough for them. She owes nothing. That is what a name should buy. Power is how you treat the person nobody watches.
