This episode was written by Melissa.

"I'll take care of you Marty, despite what you've done," Todd said as he picked up the sleeping baby and placed her back in her car seat so that he could attend to Marty's fever.

"I didn't do anything, you were the one that left," Marty accused as her eyes filled with tears.

"We'll discuss it when I get back," Todd stated.

"Once again you're leaving me, it's why we never stood a chance."

"I'm just going into the kitchen to get a cold rag, then we can discuss your extracurricular activities," Todd remarked snidely as he left the room.

Marty tried to focus, but she was just so cold and so tired that she gave in to the overwhelming darkness.

XOXOXO

"David," Matthew said as he looked up.

"Hey there little brother, how are you holding up?" David asked.

"I don't know...Destiny, my parents, I could lose so much," Matthew whispered as his eyes filled with tears.

"Pa's a fighter, he's going to make it through the surgery and Nora, well mama Red, she's the strongest women I've ever met, I guess you would need to be to put up with the Buchanan's for as long as she has. Destiny's going to pull through, she has all the reasons in the world to fight like hell and I believe that she's going to be on the winning end of that battle," David stated.

"Matthew," the doctor stated as he came out of Destiny's room.

"Destiny, how is she?" Matthew asked the doctor.

XOXOXO

Sam whispered in Melinda's ear as Zach and Margaret left.

"If you have something to say, say it out loud," Lindsay stated as she turned on the stove so that she could cook the meat.

"Melinda and I are hungry," Sam said as he and Melinda stood up.

Sam walked over to Lindsay and kicked her in the shin. "Run," Sam called out to Melinda as they had planned.

Melinda ran out the front door.

"You're going to pay for that you little brat," Lindsay said.

"No, you are," Sam said as he pushed Lindsay.

"Ow," she cried out as her hand fell on the hot surface of the stove.

Sam took off running, hoping that he and Melinda could find help before Lindsay could catch up to them.

XOXOXO

"Todd?" Marty whispered as she opened her eyes.

"I know that you like to blame me for all of our problems Marty, but your sleeping with Victor is on you," Todd said as he laid the cold rag on Marty's forehead.

"Who's Victor?" Marty asked.
