The rumors are that Pegasus is planning to buy the hospital before liquidating all its assets and laying off the staff.  When Shane comes to talk to her outside the hospital, she makes a lengthy speech about misfortunes always happening when things are starting to go well. Poor April couldn't catch a break.
