"What happened?" Kim asked Bosco, meeting him at the door. She noticed the defeated look on his face.

"A lot," he said simply, not sure he really wanted to get into everything with her. He was still reeling from what Faith had said to him. He walked over to the kitchen to get a beer.

"Bos?" she asked again, trying not to push. She could tell something had happened - something serious. She didn't know how much had happened.

Bosco sat down heavily at the kitchen table, letting out a heavy sigh before he started. "Faith never showed up for work. I figured she got caught in traffic when the power went out. I went on patrol without her expecting the desk to call me back when she got there. She never got there," he said, looking away from Kim and out the window.

"Have you talked to her? Asked her what happened?" she asked him.

"I drove over to the apartment and just Emily, Charlie and the lady from across the hall were there. Emily said that Fred had a doctor's appointment today. So, I drove over there to see if they were still there or if I could find Fred's truck or whatever. As I pulled up, Faith came out the front door carrying Fred. He took a heart attack or somethin'," he said, looking at Kim.

"Oh my God! Is he okay?" Kim asked.

"I don't know. He's still alive. We put him in my RMP and got him to the hospital. They were doing CPR when we got there. I guess they shocked him a couple of times and got him back, but Proctor said he's not out of the woods yet," he said, stopping for a moment.

"Something else happen?" she asked, sensing that he wasn't telling her something.

"Davis and Sully brought in a guy they found in a storefront during the rioting. Turns out it's Chief Hancock," he said. He noticed Kim's confusion at not knowing who the man was and continued. "Chief Hancock - Chief of Patrols. Something weird about that. I guess he was with some prostitute or something according to Sully. All very hush-hush," he said, waving his hand in an "it's not important manner."

"Anyway, I went and picked up Emily and Charlie to bring 'em down to the hospital for Faith and then I went back to the station to do all the paperwork," he finished, standing up and pacing a little.

"Well, it's a good thing for Faith and Fred that you showed up when you did," Kim said. "I'll have to call the hospital and see what I can find out about Fred's condition. Does Faith need anything?"

"I don't know. Like I said, I left right after I dropped the kids off. She didn't need me there. Nothing useful I could have done so I went back to the house to do the paperwork," he said. "Look, I'm beat. I'm gonna head to bed. You okay? Everything back to normal around here? How're you feeling?"

"Yeah. I'm better now. I think the antibiotics finally kicked in. My Mom called. They landed in Florida and everything's fine. The kids loved the flight and the weather is beautiful. They can't wait to get started at Disney tomorrow. I don't think they'll get them to sleep anytime soon tonight," she said. "I miss them already."

"Me too, but they'll have a blast," he said, with distance in his voice. Kim walked over to where he was standing in the middle of the room.

"Babe? What's wrong? Are you okay?" she asked him, putting a hand along his cheek.

"Yeah. I'm wiped," he said, giving her a light kiss and heading down the hallway to the bedroom. He stopped and turned back toward Kim. "Faith said some things. I'm sure she was just upset, but..." he said with a frown on his face.

"What things?" she asked him.

"She wanted me to arrest Proctor for putting her hands on Faith when she was getting in the way. She said some things to me when I told her I wasn't going to arrest Proctor. Ah - it's not important. See what you can find out at the hospital okay?" he said, turning to go lay down.

"I will. Get some sleep, okay?" she said and he nodded without turning back toward her.

"Faith?" Kim said quietly as she walked into Fred's room. She'd waited until Bosco was asleep and then went down to the hospital.

"Kim. Hi," Faith said as she stood up, trying not to wake up Charlie who was laying on her lap.

"How's he doing?" she said as they stepped into the hallway.

"Um, he's holding on," she said, starting to tear up. She took a moment to regain her composure. "Is Bos with you?"

"No. He crashed as soon as he got home. I wanted to come down and see if you needed anything. You want me to take the kids back to my place - or even your place?" Kim offered, handing Faith a deli sandwich and a coffee that she'd picked up on the way over. "Or I'll stay here with Fred if you want to go get a breath of fresh air or something."

"Thanks, but I really don't want to leave. I'm waiting for the doctor to come in and Fred's parents are coming to pick up the kids. I think he's gonna need some surgery," she said, her voice shaking.

"He's in one of the best hospitals, Faith," Kim said, giving Faith a hug.

"I know he is and I know Bosco's the one that got him here," she said, pausing as if she wanted to say more.

"Well, he's glad that he found you in time," Kim said.

"Did he say anything else?" Faith asked.

"He said that you said some things while you were upset, Faith. They bothered him, but I'm sure you guys will work it out when this crisis is over," she assured Faith.

"I said some awful things, Kim," Faith said, tears rolling down her cheeks again. "Things about him that are not accurate. I mean, they were accurate before. But, not now. He's a changed person from the person that I went through the Academy with and worked with for the last nine years. Would you tell him that for me?"

"Yes, Faith. I will. He didn't tell me what you said, but I'll tell him this. Please let me know if there's anything we can do. I mean it. Whether it's just sitting here with you or helping out with the kids, or whatever. Okay?" Kim said.

"I will. Thanks, Kim. And thank Bosco for me too, okay?" she said.

"I will," Kim said, looking in at the kids sleeping on the chairs and turning to walk away.
