Jesse couldn't stop thinking about the conversation he had with Jessica before she had left with Dillon. He couldn't think about it right now because he promised Maxie he would come back in one piece. He went into the collapsing tunnel and tried to get as many people out as possible before it collapsed . But kept an eye out for Robin Scorpio Mac's niece. He heard the tunnel start to cave in so he moved faster. But he didn't move fast enough because it caved in on top of him and he passed out. Luke came back through that part of the cave and got Jesse out as fast as he could.
When Jesse finally woke up he seen Maxie next to him as they got him ready to go to GH. "I'm sorry." He said remembering telling Maxie he would come back to her. She said "You couldn't help the cave collapsed." A tear rolled down her cheek. He gently wiped it away. Jesse asked "Where's Jessica?" "Dillon came back over and took her to Megan's." Maxie said. "That's good." Jesse said. "Yeah." Maxie said in a whisper. Jesse squeezed her hand knowing she was scared.
When they got to General Hospital they got him settled into a room after they fixed him up from the ordeal. Monica said she wanted to run some tests before they let him go home. Maxie looked at Jesse and he knew what she was thinking. He took her in his arms and said "It won't turn out the way it did last time." Maxie was trying to believe him but she had almost lost him one to many times not to have suspicions. Monica came back in and said "The heart problem has resurfaced and is worse." Tears brimmed Maxie's eyes. Then Monica spoke up "That means you'll need a heart transplant." Jesse seen a tear escape Maxie's eye. "What do we do?" Jesse asked. "We put you on a waiting list." Monica explained as he signed papers.
After Monica left Maxie and Jesse started talking about how this would affect Jessica because they knew they couldn't hide it from her like in the past. Jesse said "We should tell her tomorrow after she gets back." Maxie agreed with him. Jesse sighed knowing Jessica only being thirteen this would turn her world upside down.
