Then Elizabeth comes and now, the moment he'e been waiting for...his bride...Everyone rises as the door opens for Sabrina and Noah...everyone gasps at how gorgeous she looks.
Sabrina makes her way to her groom and every step that she takes Patrick doesn't take his eyes off of her. They finally reach the altar and Noah hands over Sabrina's hand to his son.
Father Coates: We are gathered here today to witness the wedding of Patrick Drake and Sabrina Santiago. This is a moment I know the two of you have waited for for a long time, he says to just the two of them and they smile at each other, neither one of them taking their eyes off each other. Before we begin, I have to ask if there is anyone here who shows any reason why these two should not be wed in holy matrimony, speak now or forever hold their peace. Patrick & Sabrina take a deep breath hoping no one speaks up for any reason. No one does...Seeing that there are no objections, he smiles, Patrick and Sabrina if you would face each other and take your hands. Patrick, please repeat after me. I Patrick Drake, take you Sabrina Santiago, to be my lawfully wedded wife.
Patrick: I Patrick, take you Sabrina to be my lawfully wedded wife, he smiles waiting for his next line.
Father Coates: I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in heath,for richer or poorer, to love and to cherish for as long as we both shall live.
Patrick:I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in heath, for richer or poorer, to love and to cherish for as long as we both shall live. He squeezes her hands.
Father Coates: Sabrina, please repeat after me. I Sabrina, take you Patrick to be my lawful wedded husband...
Sabrina: I Sabrina, take you Patrick to be my lawful wedded husband she repeats between tears.
Father Coates: I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in heath, for richer or poorer to love and to cherish for as long as we both shall live.
Sabrina: I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer, to love and to cherish for as long as we both shall live.
They exchange rings
Father Coates: Well, it is my honor and privilege to present to everyone for the first time Dr. and Mrs. Patrick Drake, you may kiss your bride Patrick.
Patrick: Finally! He says wiping a tear, passionately kissing her as everyone claps!
Emma cheers the loudest.
Emma: Are we married yet? She asks cutely. Everyone laughs.
Father Coates: You are! He smiles and Emma runs to Patrick and Sabrina and Sabrina picks up Emma and everyone continues to cheer.
Patrick: Okay, before we head to the reception, Sabrina and I have some news!
Sabrina nods her head as to let him know that he can tell them they are pregnant.
Before Patrick can announce his news they hear the church doors slam open.
Britt: NOBODY MOVE AN INCH OR SHE IS SHOT RIGHT HERE! She shouts
Anna: Robin?!
Britt has Robin under her arm with mouth taped shut and her body in a sack so she couldn't try to escape.
Emma: Mommy!? She says crying.
Mac: Let's get her out of here...
Mac and Felicia take Emma out of the church
Patrick hasn't moved since the doors opened and neither has Sabrina. They are standing there holding hands frozen with shock.
Robin tries to scream.
Britt: SHUT UP! Just SHUT UP! She says struggling to keep Robin secure in her arms.
Patrick finally says something: Britt...put the gun down, he says calmly....His eyes meets with Robins whom he thought was dead for over a year. Whatever you had planned, you are too late, Sabrina and I are married already...please let Robin go...you lost Britt...face it...
Anna: LET MY DAUGHTER GO! She shouts taking out her gun and pointing it at Britt.
Britt: Patrick needs to pay and the only way I can think of that would hurt him like he hurt me is to bring his beloved Robin back and kill her in front of him. Robin continues to struggle.
Sabrina: Britt, please...it's over...
Britt: You're right Sabrina...you are right...she pulls the trigger and starts shooting...Everyone ducks and the one who is hit with the bullets are Sabrina and Robin.
Anna: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! She pulls on the trigger and shoots Britt as she goes down too.
Patrick: SOMEONE CALL 911, he says unable to believe what just happened. He's shaking.
Elizabeth goes over to him, who is just as shocked but at least able to move.
Elizabeth: Patrick, she taps him on his shoulder, let's go check on Emma...the ambulance will be here soon.
Patrick: I can't leave them, he says shaking...
Elizabeth: Come on, she takes his hand...
Patrick: NO! Sabrina is pregnant and I won't leave her!
Elizabeth: Pregnant?
Patrick: We just found out and that's what I was about to tell everyone...he breaks down resting his head on Sabrina's stomach while at the same time reaching to hold Robin's hand.
Noah: Son, he lifts him up...come with me, he says taking him outside.
The ambulances have arrived to take Sabrina and Robin to the hospital.
Patrick collapses in Noah's arms.
Brides suite
Emma: I wanna see my daddy and mommy! She cries with tears streaming down her little cheeks.
She tries to run out to the church, but Felix catches her before she can get any farther to the scene.
Mac: We heard gun shots...Mac says concerned.
Felix nods his head.
Mac: Who was hit?
Felix:Tries not to cry...Sabrina
Felicia: NO!
Felix: And the other Mrs. Drake, he says solemnly.
Mac: Robin?
Felix nods again, as Maxie enters the room wanting to help.
Maxie: They just took Sabrina and Robin to GH! I will watch Emma, Mac and mom you go to the hospital. Emma, come with me baby. She says attempting to pick her up.
Mac: Maxie, you are way to close to your delivery date and I don't want to have to worry about you too.
Spinelli: Mac is right my love, our little girl doesn't want to be born with all this drama going on.
Maxie: I need to keep an eye on Emma! She shouts!
Spinelli: We can do that, he says taking Emma for Maxie as Emma puts her head on Spinelli's shoulder upset.
Maxie rubs her back.
Maxie: Let's take her home Spinelli.
Maxie and Spinelli take Emma back to their apartment, while Mac and Felicia run to get to the hospital as do Noah and Patrick.
