* CruelToBeKind: The nurse who brings Locke out in his wheelchair for the first time after his fall takes a tough love attitude towards getting him out of bed, telling him rather gruffly that he doesn't care if Locke wants to get up or not, but it's clear he just wants Locke to make some productive steps instead of wallowing in self-pity.
