Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale: The man might or might not be the baby's father, but the nurse can only take the neonate to the mother and release the baby to her after checking ID bands to assure the correct match. There is no need to call Security unless the man is menacing or threatening in some way.

Answer to Question 2

3
