Saga parts chapter summaries and bridge

Chapter 172, The Hospital Expands

General job: Expand medicine into a public structure.

Connects from 171: Callie / Arizona and children have reached the city.

Core movement: The hospital receives a broader spine: Clarke, Carina, Callie, Arizona, later Lauren / Delphine. Medicine becomes family care, long-term treatment, public health, birth, injury, infection, isolation, and civic responsibility.

Must carry: Clarke’s authority without erasing Carina; Callie / Arizona’s family presence; Regina / Alex / Ava logistics; children physically placed.

Must not do: Do not treat the hospital like a character roster. Show beds, medicine, intake records, arguments, hands.

Hands to next chapter: Public medicine is strong enough for civic communication to matter next.
