Danny paced outside Mac's hospital room. He stopped dead when he saw Flack striding down the corridor.

"What's going on?" Flack asked as he stopped in front of Danny.

"It's Mac," Danny sighed; his worry not lessening now someone else was here. "He doesn't know who he is. He don't remember any of us." Flack paled at the news, sitting heavily in a nearby chair.

"What did the doctor say?" Danny sat next to Don as he spoke.

"He said it's retrograde amnesia caused by the fall. They're sending up a shrink to check him out soon."

"How is he?" Flack asked softly. "Besides not knowing who he is?"

"He's got a bunch of cuts and bruises and he fractured one wrist. It's a freakin' miracle he didn't die, Don." Flack rested a hand on Danny's shoulder as his friend began to panic again. Danny let out a slow breath and looked over to Flack.

"The doctor said he'll be cleared for release by the end of the week."

"Well that's something at least. You want me to call the others?" Danny shook his head as he stood up.

"Nah, it's alright. I'll do it."

"Ok," Flack replied as he too stood up. "I'll get us some coffee." Danny smiled gratefully as he retrieved his phone from his pocket; watching as Flack left in search of a vending machine.

When Flack got back with the coffee, Danny was standing with what the detective assumed was Mac's doctor. The doctor was talking quietly, and Danny looked intensely relieved at his words. Flack approached slowly, catching Danny's eyes before he said anything.

"Here," Flack handed Danny the coffee, and the doctor excused himself. "What was that all about?"

"The shrink just finished up with Mac," Danny explained, sipping the coffee. "He said there's no permanent damage from what he can tell and from the scans. Mac's gonna be released tomorrow, and we just gotta try and jog his memory."

"Where's everyone else?" Don asked. Danny shook his head.

"They caught a double homicide uptown. They'll try and get here as they can, but it's pretty much just us for now." Flack nodded along as Danny led him towards Mac's closed door.

"You ready?" Danny asked, searching Flack's expression carefully. The detective only nodded, and Danny took that as enough; letting his hand fall to the door. There was a moment of hesitation, before Danny turned the knob and pushed.
