I have the results from the CAT scan and the blood work.
If the two of you wouldn't mind excusing us for a moment?
Yeah, sure. I'll be right outside.
Listen, if you talk to your father, tell him what happened. I can't leave you.
I'll keep trying him. Don't worry.
Thank you.
Don't worry.
I'd like to stay if that's okay with you.
Absolutely.
Well, the CAT scan came back negative.
And the blood work shows no signs of septicemia, which rules out all the complications we spoke of earlier.
So she's okay?
Yes. She has developed a condition, though, called peritonitis.
It's an inflammation of the abdominal region. It's very common with the stab wound.
The good news, it's very treatable.
So we're going to start her on another high-dose antibiotic.
Oh, you said good news? Is there bad?
Well, she still has a high fever.
I mean, there's no reason to believe, at least not at this point, that she won't react to the antibiotics.
She's going to need a lot of rest to fight this infection.
I know your family is very worried, but I really would appreciate it if you keep the visits down to a minimum.
Oh, sure, we will. Thank you so much. Absolutely.
Look, I'm going to go call Clint and tell him what happened, okay?
I'll stay with her till you get back.
I think she would like that.
This is ridiculous. Not even you could believe that we tried to have the governor assassinated.
I believe you would do just about anything to anyone who stood in your way.
What do you want? What are you doing here?
What do you think I want? I'm here to find Ace. Now, where is he?
I don't know. Okay? And if I did, I wouldn't tell you.
Hold on. What are you doing in North Carolina? Is his real mother here? Who is she? Did she kidnap him?
I don't know. Back off.
Look, Kelly, I am just trying to get some answers. That's all. I just want to find Ace.
I think she might have him.
She has my son.
He could be her son.
What are we supposed to do? Just let this woman, whoever the hell she is, keep him without even asking me questions?
No, of course not. I'm going to do what's right for Ace.
What is that? Playing some stranger to keep him?
Kevin, that...
This boy means everything to me. I have taken care of him since he was born.
You've taken care of him?
Yeah.
You? You're not the only one who misses him and loves him.
I know you love him. That's what I'm afraid of.
What?
How do I know that you're not going to go out and find him and take him somewhere and never come back?
You don't?
I didn't mean to get you into all of this.
Christian, no. Okay? I want to know everything. I want to help, if I can, if it's possible.
It's over now. Okay?
It's not over. Not for even one of us.
Oh, my God. I'm so sorry.
Everything you've gone through, it's all my fault.
No.
No, it is. If I just... If I hadn't let you take my place with Flynn that day, if I just fought hard...
No, Natalie. That wasn't your fault.
It was Tico Santis.
I don't know. I'm really not supposed to let anybody in to see him.
Sonia, what's up?
God, you scared me, John.
I'm sorry. How you doing?
Well, not that it's any of your business, but I'm just here to say goodbye to my brother. I'm leaving.
Why are you leaving?
Got to sign a case down in Hawaii. There's really no personal reason for me to stay here, is there?
Beware of soulmates, McBain. They get you every time.
Well, I'm sorry to see you go, but if you're talking about Antonio and Jessica, I guess you haven't heard.
What, that they're going to live happily ever after?
No. She's fighting for her life.
Don't you leave me, Jess. I need you.
Because of my asthma symptoms, I had to avoid the park on my way to work.
In some small way, my asthma changed how I did things, and I didn't really notice.
It's time to talk to your doctor about Advair. Advair was proven to give asthma sufferers more symptom-free days,
because Advair treats the two main components of asthma, airway constriction and inflammation.
Since I started using Advair, I have fewer days with asthma symptoms and more time to stop and smell the roses.
Advair won't replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms and should not be taken more than twice a day.
Rare but serious asthma episodes and asthma-related fatalities occurred in a study with Serapet, one of the components of Advair.
While adjusting to a switch from an oral steroid like Prednisone to the inhaled steroid in Advair,
be very careful as you may be less able to heal after surgery, infection or serious injury.
See your doctor if your asthma does not improve.
Find out how you can increase your symptom-free days.
Ask your doctor if Advair is right for you.
Advair. Add symptom-free days.

Thanks, Nora.
You're paying for Jessica, okay?
All right.
I'll come back later.
Would you call me? Okay, if there's any changes?
Sure, I will. Thanks again.
I've been talking to him.
And I'm sure she heard you.
I'll leave you two alone.
Okay, thanks.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
I just heard about Jessica. Is there anything at all that I can do?
There's nothing anyone can do right now except wait.
I tell you, Jessica's a fighter. She'll be okay.
I should have killed him when I had a chance.
Well, whatever's left of Tico's life, he won't be hurting anyone else, I forget.
So my flight from Hawaii leaves in a couple hours.
So I guess this is another goodbye.
Take care, Sonia.
Yeah, you too.
Kevin, relax. I am not going to take Ace and disappear with him.
Oh, look what you've done so far. You stole a baby, you tried to pass him over.
I did not steal him. Paul did.
Well, you certainly went along with it, didn't you?
And why is that? Why was I so desperate to have a child? Do you have any idea?
Maybe it was because you were panting after Blair and I was afraid I was going to lose you, lose our family.
I loved you so much. I would have done anything to make you happy, to make us happy.
I don't even know who you are anymore. What happened to the man that I fell in love with? What happened to you?
You want to know what happened to me? You lied to me over and over again.
And after a little while, I just quit giving it to him.
Well, you're not calling the shots anymore. I'm going to handle this my way.
Oh, by doing what?
By taking responsibility for what I did. I am going to do what's right for that boy. He will always come first, always.
All right, look, let's think about that for a minute. No matter what we've been through, I understand how much you love him.
But you have to be honest with yourself, Kelly. When it all comes down to it, can you really give him up and you just walk away, just like that?
Antonio?
Hey.
Hi. Jessica's going to be okay. I know it.
From your lips.
You know, maybe there's something we can do to give you a little more help.
Tico stole a year of my life. Of our life together.
And that hurts more than anything I've been through.
The time we lost.
We'll never be able to get that back.
Yeah, but Christian, we're together now. That's all that matters.
Look, I promise you, we're going to make up for all the time that we lost together and we will build that life together.
Just as we planned.
Thinking about that was what kept me alive.
I love you.
I love you too.
Look, I need to go check on Jessica. Do you think he'll be okay here for a little while?
As long as I know you're coming back.
Give Jessica a hug for me.
I love you. I'll be right back.
Chris, look. Everything's going to get much, much better from now on, okay?
We have our whole lives ahead of us.
