Kitt tells Randolph that she is worried she could lose two surgeons; Mina who could be deported and who knows when Barrett can start operating again, or even if she allows him to. They arrive at Jake’s house for dinner and they were shown around. Jake brings them into the baby’s room and shows them a crib that Greg made for the baby. Randolph asks if there is anything he can get for the baby, Greg says they are all set, the moment they heard from the adoption agency Jake started preparing.

She has a full day of tests and says she will catch up later.
