Visiting Miranda, to bring her to see Bianca
Ann – Mr. Chandler, your daughter has been waiting to see her daddy
Babe walks in behind him
Babe – and what about her mommy?
Ann – Mrs. Chandler…Well I am glad your better, I think Bess would be really excited to see you also
JR – thank you Ann, we'll take it from here!
Ann- you're welcome Mr. Chandler…Mrs. Chandler
Ann walks out of the room
Babe – This is killing me….
JR – don't worry honey…soon enough
Tad and Adam walk in to the room; JR and Babe look at them
Tad – Babe are you allowed to be out of bed?
Joe walks in hearing Tad's question
Joe – Doctor recommends it!
Tad – what about the infection?
Babe – it's gone! I am fine!
Adam – oh thank heavens…we were worried!
He walks up to Babe and gives her a hug they pull away
Babe – thanks Adam
Tad does the same as Adam
Tad – Adam is right, we were all so worried! We got use too you being around…you made us a family!
Babe – thanks Tad
Joe – So son…why have I been summoned here? I have patients!
Tad – well…we need a DNA test
Joe – on whom?
Babe walks up holding Miranda
JR – on this beautiful little girl
Joe – I don't understand…why?
Tad – Babe remembers having a little boy, she held her son and called him Little Adam. Bianca had a little girl, and Babe held on to them both while Paul went to go get the incubators. Paul then drugged her and took Little Adam to be raised by another woman…
Adam – Paul came to visit Babe while she was asleep and he was going to try to drug her again, he confessed everything, and we got it on tape!
Joe – where is this proof?
Tad pulls out the tape recorder and presses play Paul speaking
Babe? Babe? Even when you're totally wiped out, you still make my life hell. Don't tank this for me, Babe. You got exactly what you wanted -- a baby. So when you wake up, you hold that baby, and you don't go blabbing that you had a boy or that this isn't your kid. That won't be good for you, for me, and that little boy who already loves his new mama. So you get this through to your cotton candy head -- you had a girl. You had a girl. I think the drug I am about to give you, will help you forgot everything…
4:30 pm; Tad shuts off the recorder
Joe – so I am gathering that Bianca doesn't know, and before you tell her family you want to have solid proof!
Tad – this is why were Father and Son…great minds think alike!
Joe – okay!
Joe walks up to the phone, and calls a nurse the nurse comes in; he takes a swab and also orders on for Bianca, and one for Babe. 4:40 pm Joe finishes and has all the samples sent to the lab.
Joe – I'll get a rush on the results son…
Tad- thanks pops…the sooner we know, the sooner Bianca gets Miranda
Joe – Bianca is asking to see you and JR
Babe – we can still bring Bess right?
Joe – yes…
JR – okay, excuse us guys…
Babe, Miranda, and JR leave the room they go to Bianca's room; JR walks in first, Babe waits with Miranda
Bianca – JR Hi
JR – Hi Bianca, this may be the stupidest question ever…but how are you? Other then the obvious!
Bianca – well my health is fine, I am getting stronger…but my heart is breaking! (She wipes away fallen tears)
JR – I am so sorry Bianca…
Bianca – don't apologize, you did nothing wrong! How is Babe? And Bess?
JR – (smiles) why don't you ask them yourselves!
JR walks to the door
JR – honey…
Babe walks in to the room smiling, Bianca starts smiling
Babe – Hi darling…
Bianca – Hi sweetie (Babe walks up to her; they hug and Babe hands her Miranda) Hi Bess…Hi ya beautiful
Miranda Smiles

Babe – I am glad you haven't lost hope!
Bianca – I went through too much…to loose her know!
Babe – exactly…
JR – so has there been any updates from the crash site?
Bianca – they found her incubator, but they didn't find Miranda…
JR – which means she could have been brought somewhere!
Bianca – by whom?
Babe – the pilot! Paul Cramer…
Bianca – Paul Cramer was our pilot? Wasn't he your ex?
Babe – yes…but I called PVH and instead of asking for Joe, I asked for Paul Cramer…I should have never done that!
Bianca – oh…why not?
Babe – Paul crashed the plane and he drugged me telling me, it was to help me…I hate him and he has been nothing but trouble for me, since the day I met him!
JR – and I am going to kill him…he is the only one who knows the truth about Miranda
Bianca – so you guys think he knows where Miranda is?
JR – without a doubt!
Babe – Yes!
Bianca – my family will help…we need to talk to Tad, see if maybe he can get a hold of him!
Babe – we already did!
JR – he's getting back to us within the hour
Bianca – okay…good!
Babe- don't worry hon. Tad is awesome at his job…he'll solve this!
JR- especially because it's so close to home!
Bianca – okay, can we go for a little walk…I haven't walked in days, and I allowed taking small walks
Babe – lets get something to eat…I need to make sure my darling husband eats something!
JR – Babe…(Miranda yawns) oh is my little princess tired?

Babe shakes her head and looks at her husband; Babe walks around with Miranda, JR is following her

Babe is a few feet away
Babe – I heard that…you two are not going to spoil her like crazy

JR smiles and Babe shakes her head and smiles
Jamie – relax Babe…no matter how much we spoil this child, she will be just as spoiled from her parents!
Babe – fine! I'll drop the whole uptight act…but I don't want her to stop listening to me/us also!

Maggie - you'll be great parents!
Babe smiles
Jamie – so where are we going? No one answered my question?
JR – we are going to the cafeteria for food
Jamie – I am starved
Amanda – I think we all are!
JR, Jamie, Bianca, Maggie, Babe, Amanda and Bess walk out of Bianca's hospital room
Bianca – I am really sorry, I made you all worry…and I am sorry I put Babe's life in danger
Babe- honey…you didn't put my life in danger, I drove…you told me to keep driving and I did!
Amanda – you both have nothing to be blamed for! You both survived on your own, and you both brought Babies in to this world on your own…
JR – Amanda is right! None of us are mad, were just relived you both made it back to all of us!
Maggie – exactly…so no more apologies for things you're not responsible for!
Bianca – okay I promise! No more apologizes
JR looks at Babe; Babe looks at him; he gives her a look
Babe – fine! I also will stop saying sorry…
Jamie – finally…it took you a long time!
Babe sticks her tongue out at Jamie
Jamie – very mature Babe…

Bianca – hi family…
Reggie – Hi Binks, (Reggie and Bianca hug and pull away) it's really good to see you walking around
Bianca – thanks Reggie
Lily – I am really glad your feeling better, I am just sorry about Miranda
Bianca – don't worry Lily…I have faith Miranda will come home soon enough
Lily – really…(she smiles) good, I would really love to have a baby be part of our family…
Bianca – yeah it would be really great!
Lily – and when you need a baby sitter, you can ask Reggie and me for help! But Reggie will clean the baby's diapers, because that is gross!
Reggie – I never said that!
Lily – no, but you said you'd do anything for Bianca as long as she gets better and gets Miranda
Reggie – which is the truth!
Bianca – well, changing diapers is part of babysitting responsibilities
Reggie – I guess…so looks like Lily is right!
Lily – I never lie…
Reggie – I know…So Binks how are you feeling?
Bianca – I feel a lot better, but I am also keeping the hope that Miranda will come back to us!
Jack – that's exactly what we have to do…we have to have a constant hope!
Bianca – thanks Uncle Jack
Jack and Bianca hug; they pull away minutes laterJack – I was worried about you honey, we actually all were…I am so glad your 100
Bianca – thanks, don't worry…no more going out in storms!
Reggie – good…because I would never forgive you!
Bianca – I know you wouldn't…Reggie you and Lily are the coolest cousins, and I love you all so much!
Lily – we love you just as much Bianca
Jack looks at Erica who is behind them admiring everyoneJack – Reggie, could you and Lily give us a few minutes alone…here is $5 go get something from the gift shop for Bianca (Jack hands them $5 each)
Reggie – no problem J…come on Lily let's choose some nice flowers for Bianca
Lily – do you want anything in specific?
Bianca – surprise me!
Lily – okay, see you in a little while
Maggie – I'll come with you guys
Maggie, Lily, and Reggie walk out of Bianca's room; Jack closes the door behind them
Bianca – uncle Jack, I was with JR and Babe and they told me something
Jack – what?
Bianca – they told me…that Babe's ex husband Paul Cramer was flying the chopper, and they told me that he drugged Babe, and they think he may have given Miranda to another woman to be raised…They got Tad involved in there theory and he's checking it out!
Jack – really…so this would be proof that she is alive!
Bianca – yes, because why would he drug Babe…if it weren't for her to notice what he's doing! I was unconscious…
Jack – it makes sense!
Bianca – can you call Tad?
Jack – sure, honey…I'll be back!
Jack kisses her cheek and Erica's cheek; he walks out of the room and closes the door; Bianca looks at her mother who is looking at her Bianca – mom… Bianca gets up carefully and walks over to her mother
Bianca – I love you…I am sorry I made you worry,
Erica and Bianca hug; Erica is smiling and starts silently crying; they pull away
Erica – I love you too Baby, you and Kendall are very important to me… just as Jack, Reggie, Greenlee and Lily do.
Bianca – I love you too mom, I am sorry that I wasn't very nice to you on Friday
Erica – no I am sorry, I wasn't a good mother to you and I shouldn't have asked you to get rid of Miranda…I just didn't want you to have to feel all the pain I felt!
Bianca – I understand that…but even though you gave up Kendall for adoption, and you two had got off on the wrong foot, do you regret Kendall now…knowing that you and her love each other!
Erica – no…but I had a lot of painful memories flood back, and it was destroying me like it use too, I am actually grateful that we found a way to be a family, because I love Kendall as much as I love you, you both mean the world too me
Bianca – well then we need to work on getting Kendall to forgive you…because this is the time were have to be united! I need all the help I can get in finding Miranda, and you'll both be working together.
Erica – well honey…if you can pull it off, you will be my idol…because I need you both as much as you need me.
Bianca and Erica hug they here the door and look at Jack who walks in with Reggie, Lily, and Maggie. Bianca and Erica pull apart.
Lily – we bought you sunflowers…do you like them?
Lily hands Bianca her flowers; Bianca puts them on the side of her bed and smiled
Bianca – they're beautiful…I love them! Thank-you guys
Reggie – it was no big deal!
Lily – I m glad you like them, there wasn't a lot of choice and these were the nicest ones there
Bianca – I am glad, I love sunflowers…there beautiful!
Tad knocks on the door; Jack opens it
Tad – hi...can I come in?
Jack – sure…
Jack moves aside; Tad walks in
Bianca – hi Tad…
Tad – hi honey, are you getting stronger?
Bianca – yes I feel a 110
Tad – good! So I need to talk to you
6:35 pm Knock on the door; Jack opens it, in walks Joe with a nurse who has a wheel chair
Joe – Bianca, We would like to take you somewhere...have a seat!
Bianca – sure…what's going on?
Joe, Bianca, Tad, Erica, Jack, Maggie, Lily, and Reggie follow Tad and Joe to the nursery
Bianca – is something wrong with Bess? Why are we at the nursery?
Joe – nothing is wrong with Bess…
Tad- you'll find out soon enough why were here
They open the door and see JR, Babe, Kendall, Ryan, and Greenlee
Bianca – hi everyone…someone want to tell me what's going on?
Kendall – yeah…what's going on? And why are we in the nursery?
Tad – we called everyone here, because myself, Aidan, Adam, Krystal all found out something interesting about the horrible crash! My father is here to confirm stuff.
Babe – Bianca…what do you remember about those few days we were missing?
Bianca – I remember you delivering Miranda and leaving us to go find something to contact home!
Babe – okay, I went to a cabin and I found a phone; it worked and I called home, but the phones were down, I got a reach of the hospital and I contacted my ex Paul Cramer…he hung up on me and I didn't know if he was going to help us, so I called home again hoping it may work I got through but I tripped and I severed the wire, so the phone would no longer work…I went back to you and you were out and Miranda was sitting in your arms. Eventually my contractions started getting closer, and I was praying for someone to help us, Paul eventually came and he delivered my child…but Bianca my child was a little boy…I held him in my arms and called him…
Bianca – Little Adam…
Babe – yes, I held him in my arms with Miranda while Paul went to go get us incubators then when he came back we put them in there, and we went to the chopper and Paul drugged me telling me it will make me rest. When I woke up there was a plane crash and only 1 baby, Paul lied and said the other baby was thrown from the chopper…So Paul was being hassled by my family…
JR – and he told us that Miranda was our child…at first! We believed it, but Babe woke up and kept asking for Little Adam… and Krystal and Adam looked in to it, and asked Babe what she remembers from the crash. When I was holding Miranda after she got checked on, I realized that Miranda looks nothing like Babe and I…Kendall even said when she first looked in to this child's eyes, she saw you!
Babe – none of us, trusted Paul…so Tad, Aidan, and Adam all were going to be prepared if Paul was going to show up to finish the job and make me forget that we had a little boy, which he did and Aidan got it on tape proving that Little Adam is alive and being raised by another woman.
Bianca- can I hear it?
Tad – suit yourself darling…(he hands Bianca the tape recorder; Bianca presses play)
Paul's Voice
Babe? Babe? Even when you're totally wiped out, you still make my life hell. Don't tank this for me, Babe. You got exactly what you wanted -- a baby. So when you wake up, you hold that baby, and you don't go blabbing that you had a boy or that this isn't your kid. That won't be good for you, for me, and that little boy who already loves his new mama. So you get this through to your cotton candy head -- you had a girl. You had a girl. I think the drug I am about to give you, will help you forgot everything…
Bianca hands the tape recorder to Tad
Joe – so Tad, Krystal, and Adam asked me to run some labs…to be 100 sure that this beautiful little girl (he is pointing to a sleeping Miranda) was actually Miranda
Bianca – and?
Joe – they came back positive, this is in fact your daughter
Bianca, Maggie, Erica, Kendall all are crying silent tears of joy; Jack comforts Erica, Ryan comforts Kendall, and Maggie is comforting Bianca, they all have smiles on there faces! Bianca walks over to her sleeping daughter and looks at her beautiful baby girl. Bianca then walks over to Babe and pulls her in for a hug…they pull apart.
Babe – I am really happy for you, sweetie! I am so happy that you got back your beautiful Miranda Mona Montgomery
Bianca – thank –you Babe, thank-you for helping bringing Miranda in to this world…and for putting her back in to my arms…
Babe – please don't thank me, you're my best friend…I will always have your back!
Bianca – and your mine, and you'll also always have my back
Babe and Bianca smile; and hug once again and they pull away eventually
Kendall – congratulations Binks…I am really happy for you
Bianca – thanks Kendall…
