Back at the pub, EJ requests to see Sami’s wallet and leafs through it, coming across her forms of identification saying “Samantha Roberts.” “Because that’s my name and I’m sticking to it,” declares Sami. EJ reminds her that if they are to be successful with the immigration agent, they need to convince the agent that they are married in every sense of the word. Sami affirms that she’s doing it for Johnny. EJ wonders why she can’t at least pretend to be in love with him, rehashing how she didn’t seem to have a problem pretending when he was shot. “Well that was to keep my family safe,” clarifies Sami. EJ takes her hand in an effort to “act” the part of the loving husband, which elicits laughter from Sami. He suggests they stop trying to twist themselves into pretzel-like shapes and just act hostile, which is what Sami suggested in the first place. EJ figures they will be fine if the immigration officer sees them as a couple who are not particularly in love or happy.

Just outside the pub, Marlena asks John what happened at the police station when he looked at the desk. She suspects something in the room triggered a memory for him, recalling the time when John worked at the station. John thanks her for the stroll down memory lane, but believes he has enough to worry about in his current state. He enters the pub intent on getting a drink. Marlena tells Sami that she believes John’s starting to remember something.

Marlena later talks on the phone with Brady and raves how good it is to talk to him. She hands the phone to John, insisting that Brady needs to hear his voice. Marlena is teary-eyed as John tells Brady “It’s your father.” John musters up enough enthusiasm to tell Brady that he can’t wait to see him. He hands the phone back to Marlena and admits that speaking to Brady was like talking to a total stranger.

Back at the police station, an agitated Morgan defends her father to Philip, insisting that he’s a good man. Philip insists that Paul is guilty, and if Paul says otherwise he’s lying to his daughter. Morgan professes to love her father and refuses to stand there while Philip calls him a criminal. Phil retorts that love has nothing to do with it, as he’s had to come to terms with some questionable things Victor has done. “If your father can’t decide for himself what is right and wrong, then I’m sorry he is nothing but a spineless jerk,” states Philip. Morgan wonders where he gets the nerve to badmouth her father and storms away angry.

Bo and Hope keep vigil in a feverish Chelsea’s hospital room. Lexie wants to run some tests on a stubborn Bo, who refuses to leave his daughter’s side. He rants how it’s not fair that Chelsea risked her life for him and now she can’t have kids. Daniel emerges and tells Bo to knock it off, since his anger and frustration isn’t helping Chelsea. Bo warns Daniel that he’s getting very close to crossing the line. Daniel implores Bo to just cut himself some slack, as he can’t blame himself for Chelsea’s condition. He tries to assure Bo that Chelsea wanted to go through with the operation, since she loves him and didn’t want her dad to die. A devastated Bo asks Daniel how it happened. Daniel predicts they may never really know and tells Bo that he’s free to get a lawyer if he’s implying negligence. Bo rushes to Chelsea’s side when she awakens and apologizes for waking her up. An emotional Chelsea implores her dad to trust Daniel.

Hope asks Daniel and Lexie for time alone with Chelsea. Outside the room, Lexie tries to assure a contrite Daniel that no-one anticipated Chelsea’s outcome and it’s not his fault. Daniel believes he was the wrong guy for the job. Lexie advises him to schedule a consultation with Dr. Elman and take it from there. Daniel believes that the chances of Chelsea’s infertility getting reversed are minimal. He admits that he’s lost objectivity in this case and let himself get too close.

Bo and Hope sit by Chelsea when a nurse summons Bo outside the room to speak to Lexie. Bo assures Chelsea that he loves her before he exits the room. Hope tells Chelsea how proud she is of her for taking good care of Bo. Chelsea wishes that Bo didn’t blame himself, affirming that it was her decision to save his life. Hope apologizes to Chelsea for the predicament, but a tearful Chelsea doesn’t want the pity. Hope comforts her as Chelsea reveals that she just had a dream about Zack, but this dream was different from the others. Chelsea sobs as she describes the dream, then rehashes how she took Zack away from Hope. Hope believes that God had a plan for Zack. Chelsea deduces that it’s because Zack was able to donate a portion of liver to save Claire. “Just like they were able to use a piece of your pancreas to save your dad,” confirms Hope. Chelsea refers to her infertility as some kind of justice. Hope tells her not to ever talk like that again as Bo listens outside the door. She assures Chelsea that what’s happened to her isn’t punishment for Zack’s death. Hope assures her that she’s a wonderful person and that Zack’s death was an accident. A sobbing Chelsea thanks her. Hope professes to love her and refers to her as her daughter. They share an emotional embrace.

Outside the room, Lexie questions Daniel as to why he’s being so hard on himself. Daniel insists he’s lost objectivity and needs to keep his distance from Chelsea. “Are you saying that you are becoming emotionally involved with Chelsea?” assumes Lexie. Daniel doesn’t answer the question, only stating that it’s best for Chelsea. Lexie asks if she should tell Chelsea that he’ll no longer be her doctor, but Daniel says not yet since she has enough to deal with.

Lexie later enters Chelsea’s room and gives Bo the good news that he has a clean bill of health. Hope and Chelsea are relieved, but Bo is less than enthused. Lexie takes Hope away to examine her shoulder. Bo embraces his daughter.

Daniel later hands Lexie Chelsea’s file. Lexie wonders if he’s going to at least say good-bye to Chelsea. He approaches the door, then walks away. Hope comes back to Chelsea’s room and sees Bo holding Chelsea.
