(Hospital) Paul pleads with Emily to move her hand and wake up from her coma and blames himself for her coma. Paul thinks that he is at fault for Emily’s coma because he pushed Emily to have a child with him.

Susan walks out of Emily’s room and tells Paul and Barbara that Emily’s condition hasn’t changed. Susan and Paul both advise Barbara that she should stop taking treatments from Mick because she could also end up in a coma.

(Tom and Margo’s house) Margo asks Tom to help her clean because the Stewart women take it as an insult to them if the house has even one speck of dirt. Tom tells Margo that given the fact that Alison and Casey are getting married Margo should stop referring to the Stewarts as if they were a strange organism. Tom wonders how Casey intends to support a wife when he hasn’t even declared a major yet. Margo points out that Alison is working and she thinks that Alison and Casey should move in with them after they get married so that they can help them until they get on their feet.
