Twin Peaks General Hospital

Stephanie checks Dominick's vitals as she hovers over his hospital bed at Twin Peaks hospital. Behind her stand Eva, Will, Leah, Robin, Tyler and Abby, who were all summoned because Stephanie, with Will's help, believe that she will be able to bring Dominick out of his coma today. At first the family thought about not having Abby there, since her marriage to Dominick is illegal, but they didn't want to confuse when he awakes, as he would likely still believe that Abby is his wife.

"Are you confident that this will work?" Eva asks Will and Stephanie, who finishes with Dominick's vitals. She has been so hopeful that hiring Stephanie would pay off, but she doesn't want her dreams to be dashed.

"I believe so," Stephanie nods back to the family. "Will and I had a very good therapy session with him yesterday, and we used the vocal recordings from all of you. I believe they have helped, and once I inject him with this drug, I think he will wake up."

"What is this drug, exactly?" Robin asks her before she looks at her siblings.

"It is an anti-depressant that will calm his entire body down," Stephanie explains to them. "You see, after his stroke, Dominick's body has been on an internal battle with itself, trying to correct it. With my therapy, and the calming effect of the drug, he should awake."

Tyler, Leah, and Robin grab hands with one another as they take deep breathes. "Okay, then give our father the drug," Tyler tells her. "Let's see if we can wake our father up."

Stephanie prepares the syringe while Abby takes a deep breath and turns away from Dominick; she knows that if he wakes up, her entire future could be ruined if he remembers everything that she did to him leading up to the stroke. She shuts her eyes for a moment and starts to pray, although she has no idea what she is praying for.

Twin Peaks General Hospital

"The waiting is killing me," Chris says as he continues to pace back and forth in the waiting room of the hospital, while Trenyce and Daisy sit next to one another. They are waiting to hear from the doctors if Chris or Trenyce are a match to donate bone marrow to Albertinah, as they have discovered that she has severe aplastic anemia. Daisy, and Andrew, were also tested, but historically the parents of the child are the most likely to be a match to donate, but they still wanted to support their family in their time of need. "I wish we would hear back already."

"I went to the Sugarbowl and brought us all some coffees and pastries," Andrew announces as he walks back into the waiting room. The smell of the coffee immediately takes away the stale smell of the hospital, which is a pleasant change for the group. Daisy tries her best not to notice that one of Antonio's goons is outside the waiting room, still watching her and Andrew's every move. "I know the cafeteria coffee is poison."

"Thanks Andrew," Trenyce accepts her drink before he passes one to Chris and Daisy. "We are still waiting for Greg to come back and let us know if any of us are matches to donate to Albertinah."

"Did he mention how long it would take to get the test results?" Daisy asks her before she takes a sip of her coffee.

"He said it shouldn't take too long," Chris answers the question. "The worst part about this is that we can't see Albertinah right now. Apparently, she is highly receptable to infections, so they don't want anyone, even Trey and I, around her right now."

"She must be so alone and scared," Trenyce feels her eyes swell with water. "We need to donate to her ASAP because I don't know how much longer I can go not being able to see my baby girl."

Before anyone can say anything else, Greg appears in the waiting room causing the group to rush up to him. "Greg, what's up? Did you get the test results?" Chris asks him eagerly.

"I did, I have them right here," Greg nods back to the family.

"Well, who can donate to Albertinah? Which one of us is going to save my little girl's life?" Trenyce asks him with anticipation that it is her.

The Sugarbowl

Max waits for the barista to make his latte while the latest Lizzo song plays in the coffeehouse. He can't help but think back to the previous day when he and Sophie, seemingly, flirted together at Roboto as she mentioned that his advice helped her be closer to Robin and Natasha on Cory's birthday. He is glad that he was able to make a positive change in her life, since he knows that she has been put through the ringer. And he knows what it's like to close a parent, as Cassie has seemingly disappeared without a word, which he still finds very odd.

After he grabs the latte from the barista, he moves to the coffeebar to grab a lid and he ends up seeing Isabelle sitting alone in the back booth. He wonders how she is doing since she miscarried her child after she fell down the stairs of the Calimo mansion. He knows that Cassie was with her at the time of the fall; he finds himself moving towards her, wondering if she can shed some insights as to why Cassie might have left town.

"You look a million miles away," Max chuckles to his former fling as he sits across from her. "And I can guess what you're thinking about."

"Hi Max," Isabelle says before she takes a sip of chai tea. "And yes, I bet you can guess what I'm thinking about."

"I hope you know that you won't always feel this way," he tells her. "In time the loss of your child, it will get easier."

Isabelle forces a sly grin on her face. "I…I hope you're right," she admits to him. "It's funny how it comes in waves, you know? I'll be fine for a day or two and then…boom…it just hits me all over again."

"Do you mind if I ask you about the night of the fall?" Max asks her as Isabelle looks at him quickly and she slowly nods. "What happened, exactly? Could this be the reason my Mom left town unexpectedly?"

Isabelle gulps back to him as she knows that she blackmailed Cassie into leaving town because she wanted to ensure she stayed away from Jacob moving forward. "Your Mom, she came to the house because she was furious that Jacob was going to make our marriage work because of the baby," Isabelle retorts to him. "I've never seen her so upset before; we argued and I…I went up the stairs … I tripped and fell down the stairs."

"And my Mom is the one that called for help?"

"She did," Isabelle nods back to him. "She got me to the hospital. She might have felt guilty for the fall since we were fighting, but I can't answer that for her."

"Thanks for the insights," Max looks back at her. "I guess I just have to wait to hear from her to get the full story because something isn't adding up here. I just need to know what it is."

Meanwhile, at the window seats, Andy and Nicholas sit next to one another with large coffees in front of them. They are both rattled by Madeline's visit to the mansion the previous day when she found Clayton's watch under the sofa in the living room. Nicholas was able to cover with a story that Clayton mentioned that he lost his watch when they were married, but they both know that it likely fell off when Andy accidently killed him.

"I keep thinking about that damn watch being under the sofa," Andy admits to his lover. "How is it possible that we, or the staff, didn't see it sooner?"

Nicholas sighs back to him. "I wouldn't be too worried about it," Nicholas tells him. "The watch was pretty far under the sofa, maybe the cleaning staff didn't see it when they were vacuuming or something?"

"I…I don't know," Andy shakes his head to him. "If we didn't notice that Clayton's watch wasn't on him the night we…"

"Don't say it, not here," Nicholas whispers to him, cutting him off.

"What else are we missing?" Andy looks back at him with concern. "What if there's more….evidence….that we are missing."

"Andy, please," Nicholas pleads with him. "Try to remain calm. There isn't anything else that we've missed; I made sure of it."

Andy takes a deep breath. "I'm…I'm just worried," he admits to him. "I…killed a man," he whispers back to him. "If anyone finds out, I could be in deep, deep trouble."

The Pink Flamingo at the River Rock Casino

Donovan moves into the restaurant looking to grab some takeout to take back to Robertson Enterprises. With the Robertson's and Trenyce all at the hospital, he is finding himself picking up a lot of the slack, which he is okay with because it is keeping him busy. While he would like to be spending more time with Olly, since he and Lukas just got him back from Jasper kidnapping him, he is glad to be back in the swing of things at work. Plus, the more time away from Lukas, the better, since they are still estranged, even though Lukas keeps mentioning that they made a great team in Puerto Vallarta.

He moves to the bar and waits for his order, while his mind travels back to his last day in Mexico, where he and Sergio shared a kiss. He hasn't been able to stop thinking about the detective and the connection that they both felt for one another.

"Here's your order," the bartender says causing Donovan to snap back into reality.

"Thanks," Donovan says as he grabs his bag and then turns to leave. As he turns, however, he opens his mouth in shock as he sees Sergio sitting at a table with a beer in front of him. "Sergio?" he asks as he moves up to the detective.

Sergio looks at up at Donovan with a smile on his face as he stands up to greet him. "What…what are you doing here?" Donovan asks him as they share a quick hug.

"After you and Lukas left, I decided I had been away from my own family for too long," Sergio tells him as they exit their embrace. "So, I'm here visiting my sister."

"I…I had no idea that you had a sister, yet alone here in Twin Peaks."

Sergio nods back to him. "Maybe you've heard of her? Simona Lopez? She's also a police detective."

Donovan shakes his head in surprise. "I do know Simona," Donovan admits to her. "Wow, what…what a small world," he chuckles, still amazed that the man whose kiss he hadn't been able to stop thinking about is standing in front of him.

Meanwhile, at the back table, Madeline sits alone with a glass of white wine in front of her. Her mind is racing about how the previous day she went to visit Reese's gravesite and she happened to see Tyler and Kim together, and they were in an embrace. Without thinking, she took a picture of them and sent it to Robbie, telling him that his wife looked cozy with Tyler. Of course, she hasn't heard back from Robbie, but she wonders what is going through his mind.

"All this time, I wonder if Tyler still has feelings for Kim," Madeline whispers to herself before she takes a sip of her wine. "Because if he does, maybe this is how I could get my revenge on Robbie for staying with Kim instead of annulling their marriage and coming back to me."

Ever since Robbie told her that he was going to stay married to Kim instead of coming back to her, Madeline has been wanting to get back at them. She has felt like a complete fool for even agreeing to annul her marriage to Robbie last year so he could marry Kim on her deathbed. She doesn't know how or what to do, but she craves getting even with them.

"Tyler might be the key to this entire plan of mine," she purses her lips together.

The Calimo Mansion

Robbie paces back and forth in the living room of the Calimo mansion with his phone in his hand. He can't stop looking at the image that Madeline texted him the previous day; Kim and Tyler caught up in an embrace. He knows that he shouldn't be jealous, but he also knows the long and sorted history his wife has with Tyler.

"What's gotten into you?" Kim asks her husband as she moves into the living room. "You normally don't pace unless you're thinking about something."

Robbie pauses and looks back at her. "I…I was sent something yesterday and it's been on my mind."

"What were you sent?" Kim asks him in confusion.

"This," Robbie holds up his phone, which causes Kim to move closer to him. She sees the picture of her and Tyler hugging and immediately puts her hand on her hip. "You and Tyler looking pretty cozy, don't you think?"

Kim rolls her eyes back to her husband. "Do you even remember what yesterday was?" she asks him quickly as Robbie shrugs. "It was the anniversary of Blake's death, Robbie. Tyler and I, we were together because we were remembering the son that we lost."

Robbie feels the blood drain from his face in embarrassment. "I'm…I'm so sorry," he whispers back to her. "The date, it completely escaped me."

"It's fine," Kim looks back at him. "You have no reason to be jealous of Tyler and I, Robbie. I love you and only you. After everything we've been through, I hope you know that."

"I know, I…I don't know what came over me," he admits to her. "I'm sorry."

"I know a way that you can make it up to me," Kim purrs as she kisses on the lips. "Take me upstairs and show me how much you love me?"

Robbie smiles back to her and kisses her again. "You read my mind."

The Victors Mansion

Frederick sits at the small office within the secret tunnels in the Victors mansion looking over his file, which details his plans that he is working on. He knows that everything has to fall into the perfect time for his plan to work, which is why he is keeping Felicia sedated until he knows that he can wake her up.

"Soon Felicia," he whispers to himself. "Soon, we will be together, forever."

Before he can respond, he hears a text come through on the burner phone that he has. He can see that it is a contact that he has at the hospital that is keeping him updated on the various activities within Twin Peaks while everyone believes that he and Felicia are dead.

He grabs his phone and gulps when he reads the message. "They are trying to pull Dominick out of his coma today," the message reads.

Frederick sighs and runs his hand through his hair. "If Dominick wakes up, I will have to act quickly," he tells himself. "It might be time for me to take action. I have to wake Felicia up and carry out my plan."

Twin Peaks General Hospital

Robin, Leah, Tyler, Eva, Will and Abby all watch as Stephanie moves closer to Dominick with the syringe in her hand. They are all holding their breath wondering if this drug will help Dominick come out of his coma. Stephanie sits next to Dominick and moves the syringe to his oxygen tube; she inserts it and slowly releases the drug into Dominick's system. Once she's done, she looks back at the family.

"How long should this take?" Leah asks Stephanie, who moves to the tray and puts the needle down on it.

"If it works, it shouldn't take too long," Stephanie replies to them. "The drug is very fast acting and we have given Dominick the tools he needs to wake up."

"Let's hope this works," Tyler looks at his siblings and then over at Abby. "Hey, are you okay? You look like you've seen a ghost?"

"I'm…I'm just overwhelmed," Abby admits to the family. "I had almost given up hope that this day would happen."

Before anyone can say anything, Dominick starts to mumble and move in his bed.

"Dominick?" Eva asks as she rushes up next to him and grabs hand, which annoys Abby. "Dominick, can you hear me? It's me Eva, I'm here with Robin, Leah, Tyler, and Abby. Please, if you can hear me, open your eyes.

The family all breathe a sign of relief when Dominick's eyes open. Eva looks back at her stepchildren with tears in her eyes. "My God, he's awake, Dominick is awake!"

"Greg, please, don't keep us waiting," an anxious Chris tells the doctor as they stand in the waiting room of the hospital, waiting to hear who will be able to help donate bone marrow to Albertinah. "Is Trey or I a match to donate to Albertinah?"

"I'm afraid not," Greg responds to him with a heavy heart. "You and Trenyce, you weren't matches."

"What?" Chris asks him shock as Trenyce covers her mouth as a tear falls down her cheek. "I thought you said parents were the best chances of being a match?"

"They usually are," Greg nods back to him. "I'm sorry to have to tell you this, but in this case, you weren't matches."

"So, what does that mean?" Trenyce asks him as she wipes her eyes dry. "How are we going to help my daughter?"

"As you know," Greg continues to tell them. "Daisy and Andrew also got tested to see if they were matches. And one of them was!"

"Really?" Daisy asks him surprised. "I will do anything to help my nephew."

"It was Andrew," Greg reveals to everyone, as they all look at one another in surprise. This is the last thing they excepted since Andrew is the only one not related by blood. "Andrew is the match; he can donate to help Albertinah."

Andrew gets an uneasy smile on his face as he looks over at Trenyce, who is shaking at the news as it is rattling her to her very core.
