William and Liz were in the waiting room, waiting for Luke and Laura to invite them back to see the baby. Meanwhile, Luke was waiting for baby Ally to be discharged so he could take her home.

"What is taking them so long?"

"Lizzie, be patient."

"Dad, Liz, what are doing here?"

Luke was standing in the hall, coddling the baby in his arms.

"I wanted to meet my grandkid, Lucas. and since Lizzie here is gonna have her kid any day soon, she can see what it's like and how painful it is."

Liz's face turned pale.

"Dad!"

"Hey! I have a sleeping baby here. Please quiet down." William and Liz stopped bickering and noticed the pink blanket in his arms. Will got closer, and noticed the baby's eyelashes on her cheeks as she slept. "Who's this?"

"This is Ally. Ally Marie Danes."

"You named her after Mom?"

"Marie was a beautiful woman. Ally will grow up to be as pretty and smart as her."

"Thanks, Dad."

The little girl started waking up, crying.

Luke was surprised. Laura was supposed to help him with their daughter, and they were supposed to learn how to be parents together. "Dad, how do I get her to stop?" "Relax, Lucas. Just rock her and if that doesn't work, then feed her or change her." Luke started to rock baby Ally back and forth. "It's okay. Daddy's here." Her crying started to quieter until it became cooing. "Lucas, you're doing really well."

Liz was smiling at the baby until she looked up at her big brother. "Where's Laura?"

"She's probably still in bed. Let's just have fun with the baby out here until she's done resting."

"About that, um, she kinda sorta left."

William looked shocked, turning his gaze from his granddaughter to his son. "What do you mean, she left?"

"She signed her discharge papers and her parental rights away. I am now a single parent."

"Sorry Bro."

"I'm sorry, kiddo. Your sister and I will help in any way we can."

Ally was cooing in Luke's arms, not having a clue what was going on around her.

"I'm going to take her home now. I just need to figure this out. Y'know, the ... single parent stuff."

William walked out of the hospital with his two children and his new grandchild feeling as all is right with the world.
