The next day there were only smiles.

Mac-Guys. We need to finalize the case in the department today.

Adam-I need not give witness ... need?

Mac- Adam ... I think so.

Stella-Adam ... know we went through many things. His testimony can wait a little longer ... is not love?

Mac-Yes, but just thinking that it was my idea ... I feel quite guilty.

Danny- Dad...Stop. This is not our fault. She could have done harm to another family if we had not entered the case.

Mac-I know.

Lindsay-And then we can go?

Everyone departed with the intention to close the case. Luckily everyone was okay. At the end of the day ...

Stella Mac was in his room.

Stella-Mac .. Love ... well you know ... I know you will understand everything ... you always understand ... I mean ... Mac, I ask only to hear Danny and Lindsay.

Mac-It is so important? Are you worried?

Stella-Mac .. this is too important ... but above all we want you to know that I love you ... and I'm with you.

Mac-I have to decide what?

Danny-Father can enter?

Stella-course.

Danny- Dad... ow... Mac... means .. I want to get straight to the point. I hope you understand not only as a father .. but over as head of the police department.

Mac-E. .. Stella is here is very serious ... what you got?

Lindsay-Mac .. is serious. Do not make this harder.

Mac-Okay ... then they can get ... I'm listening.

Danny took the hand of Lindsay-Well .. I do not know how to start ... Are you ready?

Mac-course.

Danny-Mac .. Lindsay and I ... good ... Lindsay is pregnant.

Mac- Then I will be grandfather?

Danny- Daddy .. I know I disappointed you ... I'm sorry. And this is not a joke ... you grandfather.

Mac embraced Lindsay and Danny simultaneously. That comforted Lindsay .. at least momentarily.

Danny-Mom .. Lind ... need to talk to Mac you excuse us?

Stella and Lindsay-course.


Mac-Alright Danny?

Danny- Stop it! Why are you doing this? Say ... Be sincere ...

Mac- Danny. It happened ... We must accept and point.

Danny-No. .. please ... I just want you to forgive me. Nothing went as planned. Lindsay can not be fired from the department. I am solely responsible for this mess. So do what you want ... fire me ... punish me ... spank me ... but nothing with Lindsay.

Mac-I confess ... I do not understand anything.

Danny-I know! With that attitude you're punishing me. You are ignoring the fact of being a grandfather. I. ... I ... simply blew it. From what I did ... Adam and Lindsay were almost dead. I already know ... I'm leaving ... you will not see me anymore .. I know that I am a source of shame.

Mac-Schhh! Mac silenced the boy pulling into a tight hug. Danny cried.

Danny-Mac .. you would not have problems if I had not been born.

Mac-And I'll ask ... not speak it anymore ... That you should not have been born or something. His mother would freak out if she heard that. Well .. I'm not disappointed in you ... Stella and I love you. We do not want anything bad to happen to you. We want you to be happy. You are our gift from God. Believe me.

Danny-Mas .. Mac ... I ...

Mac-Daniel ... okay if you call me daddy ... I'm still your father ... the fact that you are in trouble does not change the fact that I am your father.

Danny- Sorry dad.

Mac sat on the couch and pulled the child to lie down on his lap. Danny felt safe. And Mac began massaging the head of Danny before starting the story ...

Mac-son.

Danny- Hi.

Mac-When her mommy learned she was pregnant of Don .. well .. she was desperate, did not know what to do. She was fired from her job. And well ... Gideon was against. Stella came to think of the possibility of abortion. At that moment we could not have a child. We had no home ... everything was difficult. But ... I ... I did not care about the difficulties ... knew his mom was a woman of my life ... and I could not let her abort. So I married her. Don was the best gift I received. The moment I saw that little face... I knew had done the right thing. Of course, nothing was easy. His mother was a true warrior ... fighter ... endured the hardships and sorrows beside me ...

Danny- Dad ... Gideon ... was against? How so? Well .. He it did not help?

Mac-Son ... this is not a natural situation. And actually... I was one example to Jo and Haley. There are people who can not accept ... and his grandfather was one of these people.

Danny- Dad .. but ... you and Grandpa ... well ... you are friends .. are not they?

Mac- Danny. He is my father. And well ... actually ... Jo followed my footsteps ... and pregnant with Lindsay ... the treatment was the same. Jo was a warrior ... Lindsay had no father .. Then I helped Jo ... she suffered much. This does not mean that your grandfather left to be her father. More he did not accept our complicated situation. At least Haley was proud of Gideon ...and she married first.

Danny-Jo suffered so much ... and I do not even know what to say.

Mac-Son .. you and Lindsay are like me and Stella a few years ago. But I will not resign Lindsay she's great at work. I will not force any marriage between you. I'll be here forever ... supporting you in everything. ... support that I not had when I married her mother. And look who often I needed. Do not think that being a parent is simple task. It's very complicated. But ... I know you will be a good father ... and I'm here to give the lap you'll need ... 'll always be your father. While not agreeing ... I accept you as is. And ... my house will always be your home.

Danny- dad .. you were not sad with Gideon?

Mac-Son ... there are things we should forget. If I remembered the story was to help you. It was for you to understand. I'm not going to punish him. And you will have a long way to understanding.

Danny- Daddy?!

Mac- Tell Daniel.

Danny-Have I told you is the best dad in the world?

Mac-And I am?

Danny-Sure. I'm proud to be a Taylor .. I'm proud to have you as a dad. And you do not look anything like him.

Mac-Son. I do not want to change the image of his grandfather.. He's tough. But he loves each of you. Sometimes he does things without thinking ... and here you are good looking young man with him. And when he saw Don for the first time he knew I had done the right thing. I believe that with the birth of Don I became who I am today.

Stella May I interrupt this conversation?

Danny-My warrior.

Stella-What happened here? I thought I'd find a.. butt on fire.

Mac and Stella smiled.

Stella said with irony- Jo love knowing.

Danny looked scared.

Mac-Son. I'll be by your side. Do not worry.


Jo-Well .. what is happening here?

Danny-Well .. the conversation is a bit unpleasant. But I am solely responsible.

Stella grabbed Lindsay's hand in comfort.

Mac put his hand on Danny's shoulder to continue the conversation.

Danny-Well .. Jo ... Lindsay and I ... well ... we ...

Jo-Danny ... talk soon.

Danny- You will be grandmother.

Jo looked at Lindsay-Is this true?

Lindsay-Yeah .. is true.

Jo-How could they? I'm disappointed. This can not be true.

Lindsay-disappointed? With what?

Jo-You will be mother... ... I do not believe.

Lindsay-Do not believe? You only think about you ... Stella has been more my mother than you.

Jo lifted his hand to knock on the face of Lindsay. But Danny protected.

Mac-Jo ... calm down.

Jo-Do you understand the gravity of what you're telling me?

Mac- Stella and me will be with Lindsay at all times.

Jo-How can you be quiet? You know the difficulty of being a single mother?

Danny-Jo ... I know what happened to you. I'll always be near. Lindsay had not been alone. You can not do what Gideon did to you. I know you understand the importance of having parental support ... do not understand?

Stella and Lindsay looked curious to what Danny was saying.

Danny-He did not support you ... but you can support Lindsay. Not is much ... is?

Jo started crying.

Stella-Lindsay ... your mom needs you.

Lindsay was embraced his mother.

Mac-Son ... good ... I ... I am proud to have you as a son.

Danny- Thank you dad ... I love you.

Jo was calm ... she seemed to have understood the situation.

Jo-Lindsay ... Daniel ... I'm sorry. I. .. I ...

Mac-Talk ...

Jo-I will always be here ... nothing will change that ... then I will be even grandma?

Everybody smiled. The family was united again ...

Don-Guys ... Can we celebrate?

Lindsay-Celebrate what?

Don-You do not think I would be the last to know I'll be Uncle ... you think?

Sheldon-We need to celebrate that.

Adam-I think so too.

Lindsay-personal ... well ... I thank you ...

Stella-Why thank? We are a family ... and you are part of it ...

Mac-You and Jo ... always be part of our family .. we could not say the opposite.

Danny- Don .. you're a lucky guy ... Your father loves you.

Mac-Daniel ... you do not think you talk too much for one day? (smiles)

Danny- Sorry…

Mac-I hope that our conversation is in secret ...

Stella-Secret?

Danny- men stuff ... actually ... things dads.

Reed-I want Chinese food.

Jo-Better heed the desire of the baby.

Stella-At least ... for now.

Reed-What is it? I'll always be your baby.

The day ended on a high note ... joy ... the family was complete ...

Sid-One minute please ... is it true? Is it true?

Jo-What?

Sid- I'll be grandfather?

Lindsay-Yeah ... Thank you for your support. I really consider him as a father.
