Characters’ first acts in Goddess v2.0
Dr Lander: Ask his anaesthetised patient (Freyja) to remain asleep, otherwise his plan is ruined.
Polanski: Apologise to Lander for their late arrival to the hospital’s theatre. Friday evening traffic in Tel Aviv remains hell on wheels.

Dov: Tells the others why he knows Lander / how they have met before. Dov was a former patient of the highly skilled yet chutzpah-infused doctor.
Freyja: Sleeps through chapter one, and wraps around Dov (while still asleep) when he picks her up off the steel surgery bed…This becomes Freyja’s instinctive reflex to being carried by Dov…
