As Kyle shivers on the balcony, Billy drones on about feeling guilty for not being there when Sally had Ruby. If his Mom’s still improving over the next 48 hours, he’ll go home. Standing, he steps toward the patio door – he’d forgotten how amazing this view is.

No Billy, wait, Victoria panics when Billy opens the patio door. She has a meeting (but you can stay if you want) After Billy leaves, Victoria pulls Kyle in from the cold – you poor baby.

Now alone at the park, Adam flashes back to telling Sally how sorry he was – but could never regret choosing to save her – you’ll be a mother. Just go! Sally had wailed.

If you believe Adam’s being completely honest, that’s all that matters, Nick backs off to ask how Billy’s dealing with it. Fine – Chelsea reports that their visit went well. Billy and Sally were grateful to Adam.

At the pub, Billy has no messages and decides no news is good news. Sally comes home talking to Ruby about Adam when Billy calls. If Jill’s stable for 48 hours, he’ll come home. What did you two girls get up to today? A stroll through Chancellor Park. Billy’s sorry she’s doing this alone. Sally looks guilty.

Victoria’s SO sorry – she couldn’t rush Billy out when he’s so worried about his Mom. Hot tea? Blanket? Kyle can think of another way to get his body temperature up ~kiss~

Finally – Chelsea’s been looking everywhere for Adam. Yes, everything’s fine – he had an early meeting that got cancelled. Repeating that he’s fine, he sends Chelsea inside for her pre-work latte.

Missing Ruby, Billy wants her to know who her Daddy is. Put on speaker (by Sally) he sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star. At the cafe, a weepy Adam flashes back to handing Ruby to Sally. Coming out with two lattes, Chelsea’s smile vanishes at the sight of a tortured Adam looking far off into the distance.
