A few months have gone by and every day Liam gets a little bit stronger giving Patrick & Sabrina more hope for their son...
Patrick: "Epiphany, hey...since Liam is doing so much better would it be possible for Emma to visit? She's been bugging us to meet her brother and now that he's not in so much danger I'd love to be able to bring her in."
Epiphany: "Well, I'll double check with Dr. Chen, but as long as she isn't sick or anything, I don't see why she couldn't."
Sabrina: "That would be fantastic!" She smiles..."How are his lungs doing these days?"
Epiphany: "Much better...they are almost fully grown to where they need to be...if he keeps this pace up, he'll get to leave the hospital soon!" She smiles.
Sabrina: "Really?! Wow! See little guy, mommy and daddy knew you could pull through this!" She smiles.
Felix: "Knock, knock..."
Sabrina: "Hey you!" She hugs her best friend....."look whose awake," she smiles.
Felix: "Hey little guy! You're looking fantastic!"
Patrick: "He is isn't he?! Actually, since you are here...I'm going to go and pick Emma up from day care and bring her in to meet her little brother...Epiphany said she would be able to and she's been asking everyday to meet Liam," he smiles getting up.
Felix: "Ummmm, wait..."
Patrick: "Why? What's wrong?"
Felix: "Nothing, well, at least I don't think so..."
Sabrina: "Felix...what?"
Felix: "I went to go and check on Emma a little while ago and one of the teachers told me that Robin had come and picked her up...no one told you?"
Patrick: "No!" He says angrily. "Unless I missed a phone call," he checks his phone, but doesn't see any missed calls.
Sabrina: "Did anyone leave you a message Patrick?"
Patrick: "No...I don't know why Robin would just pick her up and not call me...she knows I'm here...I'm going to find out what's going on...I'll be back soon...you guys okay?"
Sabrina: "Yea, of course...go see what Robin is up too now! We'll be here when you get back. "
Epiphany comes back in...
Epiphany: "Did Drake, Jr. go to get Emma? Dr. Chen said he could bring her in whenever he wants."
Sabrina: "He was going to go and get her, but Robin decided to pick her up and not tell anyone."
Epiphany: "Oh, well, that is not going to make Drake, Jr. happy...no wonder he looked angry when I saw him get on the elevator."
Felix: "Yea, you could say that," he laughs.
Epiphany: "Sabrina it's time for Liam's bottle," she says shaking the bottle.
Sabrina: "Great!" She gently picks up Liam who she is now able to hold whenever she wants...he is out of the danger zone and on his way to being released.
Felix: "I'll let you two beauties bond," he smiles kissing Sabrina's forehead...
Sabrina: "Can you go and check on Patrick and make sure Anna hasn't arrested my husband," she laughs...
Felix: "I was on my way to do just that!"
Felix runs into Patrick on his way back from daycare even angrier looking than before.
Felix: "That was fast...uh oh...what?"
Patrick: "No one in that day care thought to call me to tell me that Robin took Emma out...There are specific instructions that Emma is NOT allowed to leave without my okay...I'm furious...I can't get a hold of Robin and Anna and Duke are not answering their phones."
Felix: "Okay, relax...do you think that Robin would just up and leave town? Or would she go to her mother's place with Emma?"
Patrick: "You're guess is as good as mine these days...Robin's head is all over the place and that's what scares me. She knows Sabrina and I are focused on Liam and can easily be distracted so she must have thought she could get away with taking Emma on the fly...which she has! But it's possible she's at Anna's."
Felix: "Alright...you stay here, I'll go and see if they are there and we'll take it from there...I doubt we have anything to worry about...yet..."
Patrick: "Thanks!" He says tapping his phone in his hand angrily. "I'm glad Noah is with my dad and Bobbie this week...at least she couldn't have taken him too," he manages a laugh.
Felix: "Good point...I'll call you."
Patrick: "Thanks!"
Back in the nursery
Sabrina: "Hey, any luck?"
Patrick: "Look at my boy, he's sucking that bottle dry!"
Sabrina: "Yea, he is! She smiles...Here, you sit with him for awhile. She hands Liam to Patrick and he enjoys sitting feeding his son. You haven't answered me...any luck on finding our daughter?"
Patrick: "No...he says staring at Liam...
Sabrina: "NO! Why are you here? Go find our daughter!"
Patrick: "Felix is checking Anna's place first."
Sabrina: "Oh...whew! I'm sorry...I just want to know she is okay."
Patrick: "I know," he smiles..."I'm sure she is, and when Felix finds Emma he'll bring her back here."
Sabrina: "Good...she says pacing the room."
Patrick: "Babe, sit down...you're going to wear a hole in the floor..."
Sabrina: "I can't help it...I hope Robin didn't do anything stupid like leave town without telling us."
Patrick: "She maybe loosing it, but I don't think that she'd go that far"..."I hope," he whispers to himself.
Sabrina: "What do you mean, you hope?"
Patrick's phone rings
Patrick: "See, there's Felix now!" He gently takes his phone out of his pocket while still holding Liam. "Felix, please tell me Emma is with you."
There is silence on the other end of the line.
Patrick: "Felix! Tell me my daughter is with you! He says louder."
Felix: "I'm sorry, they weren't there!" He says panicking..."now what?"
Patrick: "Do me a favor...meet me at my house...let yourself in...I'm on my way. If they are there you'll hopefully get to them first. I'll be there soon."
Sabrina: "You think Robin would go to our house?"
Patrick hands the baby to Sabrina.
Patrick: "I mean she may have wanted to pack a few things for Emma if she planned on leaving town...there's only one way to find out."
Sabrina: "I'll go with you! She says placing Liam (who fell asleep) back in his crib).
Patrick: "Are you sure? You can stay here."
Sabrina: "No, I need to know what that woman plans on doing with our daughter...Epiphany can look after Liam. Now that he's out of the woods, I'm a lot more secure in leaving him."
Patrick: "Okay...we'll let the nurse know we'll be gone for a few hours and to call if anything changes."
Sabrina: "Let's go!"
Robin's car
Emma: "Mommy, where are we going?"
Robin: "We're going on a trip, just me and my baby girl! Doesn't that sound like fun?"
Emma: "Not really...I want to go home!"
Robin: "I am your home baby...I'm your mommy!"
Emma: "Daddy and Sabrina are going to worry about me!"
Robin: "Don't worry...I left daddy a note telling him I have you...he won't be worried," she smirks."
Emma: "Are you sure? Mommy I don't like lying to daddy!"
Robin: "Why don't you close your eyes for awhile and when we get to our destination I will wake you!"
Emma: "I'm not sleepy,she shouts! I want Sabrina!" She pouts in the backseat angering Robin even more.
Robin: "Emma, honey...how many times do I have to tell you...I gave birth to you...NOT Sabrina...I am your mommy...not her!" She says speeding faster.
Patrick: "Dammit! There not here!"
Felix: "Look, but they were! He sees Emma's favorite doll on the couch." She takes it everywhere and he knows they must have been at the house because she had it with her at day care earlier in the day.
Patrick: "They couldn't have gotten far...I'm calling Anna!" He dials Anna's phone and she finally answers.
Anna: "Patrick hey..."
Patrick: "There you are! I've been calling you all afternoon!"
Anna: "I saw your missed calls and was just about to call you back...is everything alright?"
Patrick: "Not at all...Your daughter ran off with Emma again! She managed to get her out of day are without my permission and we know they were at the house because Emma's doll is here."
Anna: "Say no more...I'm on my way...I'll have the entrances to the roads blocked so they can't get out of town...hopefully they haven't gotten to far...I'll put a trace on her car too."
Patrick: "I am sorry to put you in the middle of this again...She's your daughter and..."
Anna: "I'm just doing my job right now...we'll figure out the logistics later, we'll bring Emma home! I'm on my way over, don't move!"
Patrick: "Thank you," he hangs up with Anna..."She's on her way and blocking the roads."
Sabrina: "Good...Patrick...something has to give with Robin here...this is the second time she's taken our daughter...we need to take serious action against her this time...we can't keep doing this...especially with Liam coming home soon. I am so glad Noah is at your father's...if she took him too, I would be more of a wreck than I already am."
Patrick: "I know, come here, he hugs her...we'll figure something out...this is silly...I can't just stay here and do nothing...I'm going to drive around and look for them myself."
Felix: "Patrick, do you think that is a good idea?"
Patrick: "I don't know...I just need to do something besides wait."
Sabrina: "Anna is on it and she will be sure to bring Emma home...no matter the cost! If anything happened to you while you were out there, Patrick, I would completely lose it and Felix would be stuck raising our kids, she manages to joke."
Felix: "Oh, god...he laughs...we don't want that now do we, they all laugh...
Patrick: "I hate this!"
Sabrina: "I know...I'm sorry," she says hugging her husband...trying to calm him down.
Patrick: "She must really hate me because she keeps hurting our kids", he cries..."I didn't think my moving on would be an issue especially after the DVD that she made...I would never had thought my ex wife could be capable of doing things like this."
Sabrina: "When you want to get something you love back, you'll do anything...even if it means breaking the law. I know if I were in Robin's shoes I probably would do just about anything to get my family back, but thankfully I'm not," she smiles kissing Patrick's cheek. "We have each other...she just needs to accept it once and for all...I mean she's been back for over a year now...it's getting a bit old don't ya think?"
Felix: "I'd rather deal with the Britch again," he teases and they all laugh.
Patrick: "Honestly, at this point, so would I Felix...so would I! That was nothing compared to this!"
Sabrina: "And look at us now!" She smiles, trying to reassure him that everything would work out like it always does.
Patrick: "I'm so lucky to have you in my life...I made the best decision asking you to marry me Sabrina Drake!" He says pulling her onto his lap giving her a kiss.
Felix: "You sure did! How many other women would put up with as much of this crap as Bri has!?" He teases.
Sabrina: "Not many, she laughs, not many! That's for sure!"
The doorbell rings...
Patrick: "I'll get it," he opens the door...
Anna: "Look who I found! She smiles!
Patrick: "Emma! Oh my god!" He twirls her around and picks her up...
Sabrina: "Em! Thank god," she hugs her. "Are you okay? We were so worried about you," she kisses her cheek.
Anna: "We managed to find Robin's car just leaving the NY border."
Felix: "You guys are good! Welcome back baby-girl! He high fives Emma."
Emma: "Thanks!"
Sabrina: "Do you know where your mommy was taking you sweetheart?"
Emma: "No, she just said that she wanted to take me on vacation...I kept telling her I wanted to just go home that you and daddy would be worried."
Sabrina: "We were baby! But you're back now!" Emma goes to Sabrina and she picks her up and holds her tight.
Patrick: "Where is Robin now?"
Anna: "In custody...I had to arrest her."
Patrick: (Winces at the thought) "Oh, Anna...I'm sorry...that must have been just awful! Are you okay?" He touches her shoulder.
Anna: "I'm better now"...she smiles..."I'm just glad my little Emma is back where she belongs. The woman at the station is not the daughter I know and love...she's a completely different person...I don't know my daughter anymore and I never thought she would be capable of half of what she has done," she says holding back tears.
Patrick: "Anna, I'm so sorry...it's all my fault..."
Anna: "No, don't you do that, you hear...you have a beautiful family...an amazing wife and a life that Robin WANTED you to create if anything had happened to her...when we thought she died that's exactly what you did...you found Sabrina."
Sabrina: "We found each other," she says holding her husbands hand seeing the worry in his eyes.
Sabrina: "Thank you for always sticking by us Anna, it means the world to me and I know if means more than that to Patrick and Emma."
Anna: "My pleasure," she hugs Sabrina...."I love you guys so much. I just wish Robin could see what a wonderful woman you really are,"she says wiping Sabrina's tears.
Sabrina: "Thank you...that means a lot coming from you," she smiles.
Anna: "Robin may be angry at me for taking your side now, but I'm sure we'll be fine eventually...it's definitely not our first feud," she giggles. "Patrick, I do need you down at the station to file the report and file the complaint...do you think Emma would be up to answering some quick harmless questions just for the record?"
Emma: "Yea! She says excitedly wanting to do police work."
Sabrina: "Uh oh, looks like we have a future police woman in this house!"
Emma: "Just like Grandma Anna!" She hugs her grandmother!
Anna: "I do love you so much baby girl!" She hugs her tight..."ready?"
Patrick: "As I'll ever be."
PCPD
Patrick: "Can I possibly talk to Robin? He asks Anna.
Anna: "If you want."
Patrick: "Thanks, Emma...stay here with Grandma, okay? I won't be long, I just want to say a few things to your mommy."
Emma: "Okay," she shakes her head and hugs Anna.
Anna: "She is right in that holding room there," she points across the hall.
Patrick goes into the interrogation room.
Robin: "Oh, Diane! Thank god! What took?" She stops cold when she realizes it was not Diane but Patrick.
Robin: "Patrick..."
Patrick: "Robin," He says giving his ex-wife a stern look..."how could you?"
Robin: "I just wanted to," she stops and begins to cry.
Patrick: "Uh ah...no...the crying thing will not work this time...You've given me no choice Robin...I have to file these charges against you..."
Robin: "Your wife put you up to this didn't she?"
Patrick: "NO!" He yells..."Sabrina had very little say in this decision...yes, she agrees but it's only because this is the 3rd incident that's occurred with our kids and someone needs to take steps to protect them, even if that someone has to be me...I never thought you would sink to this level."
Robin: "Patrick, please...you have no idea how much I've been through...since I've been kidnapped and taken from my family...which used to include you!"
Patrick: "Oh, believe me", he laughs out of frustration...."You think I don't know what it's been like. I've been through my own hell since I thought you died 2 years ago. I won't get into all of that because you already know about the drugs and the situation with Britt...Robin...If I hadn't watched that DVD you made me and found out that you wanted me to find and I quote "Someone to love!" God only knows where I would be right now...and then all of a sudden I find out you really are alive which, yes, I was so happy about but on the same token, I had already fallen in love with Sabrina...had gotten married and made a life together with her...the things you have done as a result do not add up to the woman I used to love...I don't understand why you hold such a grudge against my wife. You really have no idea what she has done for me or for that matter Emma...which is why I am petitioning the court for sole custody of our daughter."
Robin: "What!? Patrick, NO! You can't do that! You cannot take my little girl away from me!"
Patrick: "Too late! Alexis already filed the papers today...Sabrina will be adopting Emma as her own and you will never be able to be near her again"....he says tears forming.
Robin: "You need my okay for that don't you?" She says in tears.
Patrick: "Nope! Alexis had an emergency child removal petitioned to the judge and it was granted as a result of the charges against you and for the simple fact that the judge finds that you are unstable."
Robin: "Patrick, what has happened to us!?" She cries reaching for his hand, but he pulls away.
Patrick: "I wish I knew Robin...I really wish I knew," he pauses..."I have to get my daughter home."
Robin: "Our daughter," she says loudly so everyone can hear as Patrick opened the door..."OUR DAUGHTER! YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS PATRICK...You WON'T!"
