The cast split up in to two groups. Some of them went to the recording studio and the others stayed to practice their dance. Lea was one of the first to run to the recording studio. She was very anxious to start recording her songs. Cory, Mark, Dianna, and Jenna tagged along. The rest stayed in the dance studio to practice their dance numbers and also the big finale at the end.

"Ok guys, so we have an hour to practice over here and get our steps right before Lea, Dianna, Mark, Cory, and Jenna get here. I think we can do this though. Turn up the music Amber!" Heather called out.

"Sure thing Heather, I got it covered." Amber said excitedly and with that, the crew began dancing.

Back in Ryan Murphy's room, Chris was still sleeping. It was now 7:50 and that's when Ryan came in to check on Chris again. He felt his forehead, which was still kind of warm. He got a cloth, wet it with cold water, and carefully placed it on Chris's forehead. Chris reacted to this by moving to sleep on his side which eventually also caused him to wake up.

"Oh no, it's ok, go back to sleep Chris. I'm just going to put this wet cloth on your forehead to keep you from burning up." Ryan said.

Chris responded with a weak cough, followed by a couple of more. He blinked slowly, looking very tired. After a few more coughs he slowly sat up and curled himself with the blanket that Ryan gave him. Even with the blanket wrapped tightly around his thin body, the poor boy was still shivering. Ryan noticed this at once and quickly went to his closet to find another blanket suitable for the freezing boy.

He found the perfect one that was a little bit heavier and warmer than the one Chris was using. He brought it over to Chris and wrapped him up in it over the other blanket. Chris looked lost in the two blankets surrounding his body, but at least he stopped shivering and looked warmer than before.

"Chris, your cast members are practicing their songs and dances. In about an hour, they will all be getting together to rehearse the big dance number for the end of the episode. I would like you to rehearse with us, but if you feel that you are too sick to dance, please just tell me, and I will try to do something about it. I'm saying this because you're in the finale and I think we're going to shoot it today or maybe even tomorrow, if you can't do it today. The sooner the better though. If you know the dance well enough, you don't have to rehearse it with the group. You can take the time to rest if you need to. I do have to say that you will be filming it with us. Whether if it's today or tomorrow is up to you. However you're feeling. We can even film it today, and if we're done with the number, I will send you home immediately so you can get better. By the way, how are you feeling? Any better?"

Chris spoke very quietly but not in a whisper, "A little bit. I think the sleep is somewhat helping."

"Ok, that could be good news." Ryan said nodding his head and feeling Chris's forehead for the third time. "Here, I want to check your temperature again. See where you are."

Ryan picked up the thermometer where he last left it, which was on his desk. He put it in Chris's ear and eagerly waited for the "beep".

Seconds later Ryan took the thermometer out and it read 101.5˚F.

"Hmm you went a couple of decimals up. I'm not liking this so far." Ryan put the thermometer back down on his desk and opened to drawers to find some Tylenol he also kept for situations like these.

"Chris, I want you to get as much rest as you can in the next hour. Around 9:00 I will come to take a look at you again. Take two Tylenols. Each one lasts for about two hours. If you are feeling like you are up to film the dance number today, I will wake you up so you can start filming with your cast members. Also keep this wet cloth on your head. It will keep you cool. Call me if you need anything. I will see you in an hour."

Chris nodded with a faint "Ok", took the two pills Ryan told him to take, and soon fell asleep.
