Episode 5 Ch.4 The Great Unknown
Lucas is now in his bedroom by himself. He hears a knock on the door and Elizabeth walks in holding Emma.
"Oh wow…"
"Look a there Emma it's your granddad."
Elizabeth walks over to his bed and hands him Emma.
Lucas is amazed. "I thought holding my own children was amazing, but this is pretty much the best feeling I have ever had." He had a tear in his eyes.
"Yeah well she's pretty great."
"I missed you so much."
"I missed you too daddy."
"I was worried about you keeping her, but I see now that I have nothing to worry about."
"I know that it is going to be hard, but I can handle it. I love her so much."
"That's what it feels like to be a parent. It is the best feeling in the world, and the good part about it is that it never goes away."
"Good because I never want it too." Elizabeth smiled at her dad and Emma. Lucas was mesmerized with Emma. This was the best feeling in his life, and he didn't care how she was conceived. He was going to love her with all of his heart.

Daniel is at his apartment thinking about Isabella. He answers the door to see that Isabella has found him.
"How did you know that I lived here?"
"Lucky guess…"
He rolled his eyes.
"I asked your mom. I've made a lot of mistakes Daniel."
"Yeah…I agree."
"But loving you wasn't one of them. I was just so young and so in love, and I needed to experience life."
"I didn't think experiencing life was making the front page of trash magazines."
"That isn't what I wanted, but that's where I ended up. We both needed to grow up Daniel."
"Yeah well it looks like I did, but you didn't."
"No I still have a lot of growing up to do, but I still care about you."
"All you have to say is that you want to be with me, and I'll forgive you."
"It isn't that easy."
"It is for me." Daniel placed his hand on her face and pulled her into a kiss.

Julian walks into COB with a picnic basket.
"I thought we were going out later."
"Yeah I thought about that, and I decided that I didn't want to wait."
"Oh…"
"I thought we could have a picnic here. You don't look too busy."
"Today has been a slow day."
'Well then you can close early, and we can spend sometime together."
"Julian…"
"Brooke I think that you work too hard. Everyone needs a break every now and then."
"You're right."
"I know I'm right." He sat the picnic basket down. "I just want you to relax."
He walked behind her and started massaging her back. "Do you feel better?"
"Yeah…that feels really good."

Rob walks into his house to see Jenny sitting on the couch. "Hey where are the kids?"
"They are both asleep. Today has been a pretty easy day for me. How was your day?"
"It was fine…Jenny I'm worried about you."
"Rob…Ugh…Julie talked to you didn't she?"
"Yeah…."
Jenny sighed. "Nothing happened…I promise you everything is okay."
"Jenny maybe you should see someone…"
"There is nothing wrong with me…Rob you have to believe that I'm okay. I was just tired and that's all Julie walked in on."
Rob didn't say anything. He knew that something was wrong with her.

Jeremy and Drew are walking up to Summer and Chase's apartment. "You know if you want to Drew you could stay with me tonight."
"No I have to stay with mommy and Chase. They always read me a bed time story."
"Oh okay…"
"I had fun with you today."
"I had fun with you too buddy."
Summer opened the door.
"Mommy…" Drew jumped into her arms. "I missed you Mommy."
"I missed you too buddy." Summer just looked at Jeremy. "Thanks for picking him up."
"No problem…anytime…I love you Drew."
"I love you too."
Summer put Drew down. "Why don't you go play?"
"Okay mommy."
Summer looks at Jeremy. "I'll see you later."
"I want to get to know him. He's my son, and I want to be there for him."
"It's a little late for that." Summer closed the door before Jeremy could say anything else.
He had many regrets where she was concerned.

McKenzie walks into her house to see Larry waiting on her. "What did you do today?"
"I just needed sometime to think."
"What were you thinking about?"
"I was thinking about my baby and how I want it to have a better life than I can give it."
"I think you are making the right decision, but there is a chance that Hunter will get custody."
"That can't happen. That isn't what I want."
"I just want you to prepare yourself for that."
"I have, but that isn't going to happen okay. It just can't happen." McKenzie walks upstairs. She didn't want Hunter to get custody.

Hunter is at the library studying when Clare walks in. "Hey," she whispers. "I thought I might find you here."
"Yeah well I've got to keep my grades up."
"Hunter, are you okay?"
"No I'm not okay. I'm scared to death."
"It's okay to be scared Hunter. You are about to be a father. That's a big deal."
"I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I know that I want to do it. I owe my child that much."
"I think that is the bravest thing I've heard. I wish all parents were like you then a lot of kids wouldn't end up on the street or feel alone. It may not be easy Hunter, but you'll get through it. And I'll help you in anyway that I can."
"Thanks Clare…I know I can always count on you."
"Always," she smiled.
