This document provides an analysis of a potential television pilot episode set in a hospital. It notes that the hospital setting and use of medical terminology would suggest an older target audience. Throughout the document, it is repeatedly stressed that the visuals and gory content would be unpleasant and inappropriate for younger viewers aged 10-15. The genre is described as thriller-like and builds to a climactic accident scene that increases tension.
