the icu is less busy, less of a fever dream, more respectful of autonomy, and less full of body horror than where valerie was before

The thing is that from Emma's perspective the girl cleaning the plexiglass is a brainwashed empty shell and this is a golden opportunity to destroy something that belongs to the fae who imprisoned them both and presumably killed whoever the cleaner used to be. Emma grabs her and slams her head into the block of plexiglass over and over and over, long after she's stopped moving and her plastic mask is cracked and there's blood in the jersey cloth at her temple, and then for good measure Emma tries a magic trick that probably won't actually remove either of them from this universe but it would be good if it did.

Valerie is not actually brainwashed, a girl, at all inclined to object to Emma fighting back, conscious, or, now that the magic has happened, still in the room with Emma.

There appears in another universe an unconscious person wearing a white-plastic-and-jersey-cloth mannequin suit under a black and yellow latex outfit and a gold belt with long light decorative gold chains that attach to gold wrist cuffs.

This would be enormously less confusing if it were a couple of months later and thus Burning Man season! Still pretty confusing, patients usually arrive in a medevac helicopter rather than mysteriously appearing on a sidewalk downtown, but, like, mildly less confusing. 

The woman who found the unconscious person on her commute to work and called 911 will stay with them and follow instructions from the ambulance dispatcher to check whether they (she?) are breathing and have a pulse.
