A dark caption.

Test Number Forty-Three, patient name is Steve Rohm, a forty-seven year old male. Steve came into the hospital today for the removal of a cyst on his arm. After arrival and per-surgery prep was taken to operating room 217. Patient was then sedated and the donor body was brought in for surgery.

Donor body was Megan Summers, a twenty-seven year old woman who was admitted to the ER for an allergic reaction. Symptoms suggested a more severe reaction, but vitals and bloodwork revealed only a minor reaction. As compatibility was assessed with the bloodwork, it was revealed she was a compatibility match for the patients in test forty-three. Little convincing was needed to sedate her for supposed "further testing".

Surgery was uneventful. Severing occurred just above the base of the neck. Removal was smooth and quick for both patient and donor. Patient's neck attached to donor body's neck base with only minor modifications. All medical waste has been disposed of properly.

Test forty-three a success. Patient is up and conscious, fully mobile and alert. No signs of infection or errors so far. Will continue to monitor.

Note added: Test forty-three patient is considered ready for discharge in the morning, pending a final check by the staff. The check is a requirement, but little more than formality given the events of last night.

At 1:37 a.m., patient and orderly were found in patient's hospital recovery room, engaging in unauthorized fraternization. Orderly has been "volunteered" to be the donor in test forty-four. Patient, though, is in high spirits and has, in an unorthodox manner, firmly displayed the required dexterity, strength, reflexes, and coordination required for patient discharge. Will follow-through in the morning after surgeon's consultation.
