Biography[]

Nicolette Nevin - commonly known as Nic - is was an overly qualified nurse who ran the hospital floor, had an on-and-off relationship with Conrad Hawkins and would go the extra mile for her patients. Her mother died when she was 13 and her sister was a former drug addict but had been sober for a year.[1]

Season One[]

During the early part of the season, Nic was shown to be really close to a repeat patient named Lily Kendall. Nic became suspicious of Lily's doctor, Lane Hunter when her charts and medications didn't make sense.

Nic was arrested and put in jail on breaking and entering charges, which is a felony that will stop Nic from ever being a nurse again. Lane had set her up, by making it look like Nic broke into and trashed one of her practices.[2]

Nic’s bail is set at $100,000, as Lane’s lawyers have labeled her as a flight risk. When she tells Conrad this over the phone, he tells her that he’ll handle it. He ends up calling his father, Marshall Winthrop, who pays all of her bail and tells his son that she’ll be released within the hour.

Back at the detention center, an officer collects Nic from her cell, knowing that she’s a nurse. She brings her to her girlfriend, who is a fellow officer. After telling Nic her symptoms, she decides that she likely has low blood sugar due to an antibiotic she’s on. After Nic helps solve the issue, the officer who got her from her cell tells her that she made bail and is free to go.

Nic walks by Conrad wearing her scrubs, Dr. Bell has given her back her job. Conrad pulls her into an empty room and they kiss.[3]
