Basil had returned Haley to her room, forced her to drink quite a bit of water and some kind of over the counter medication she was unfamiliar with. When he felt she was 'ok' he went to clean off the vomit but would return to check in on her about ten or so minutes later.
He had manged to wash off and change with his injured hands (thank God it didn't get in his hair). He knew Haley's roommate had been out for awhile so he made himself comfortable on Miriam's bed to settle in to watch after her for a bit.
45 minutes later he realized he had accidentally fallen asleep, the vodka he chugged had gotten the better of him too.
Eventually he was assured that she seemed to be breathing fine as she laid there, so he let her be. He left her a bucket by the bed, in case her body decided to expel again.
Wandering into the hallway he began to sing to no one but himself.
"You've got to take your mind off him
But not with aspirins
You won't, You won't let your family in
Like smoke your body comes
Through the gaps in the urban slums
You try, You try to speak American
When you don't know what you want
You end up finding that you haunt your own, Your own life
You're the daylight ghost that creeps
You're the empty city streets
And I, and I see you- "
Unfortunately for the inebriate, he was singing loud enough for the pair trying detective out his location to hear him.
