The next morning, Trucy was home from the hospital, she went home while Phoenix went to the pharmacy to pick up her medication. Athena stayed with Trucy while Phoenix went to the pharmacy and kept her company. Shortly after Phoenix got home, he told Athena he was gonna take the day off from work to take care of her, and she needed Athena to take care of the office in the meantime. Athena left an hour before she had to go to work to see how Apollo was doing and she noticed he was feeling a lot better but was not well enough to go in yet. While Phoenix was enjoying his day off he decided to call Edgeworth at work to see if he could do a favor for him. Edgeworth said, "What do you need help with buddy". Phoenix said that he needed someone to take care of trucy tomorrow so he can help with getting ready for the company christmas party. Edgeworth said, "I'd be very willing to help, i was gonna take the day off anyway so thanks for giving me the day off."
A few hours later Athena came back to Phoenix's apartment, she said Apollo was feeling well enough and was walking about so he looked like he would be well enough to go the christmas party tomorrow after all. Phoenix said, "That's great to hear, lets just make sure he drinks enough, we can get some juice and bottled water for him to drink so he can stay hydrated." After a few hours, Athena left Phoenixs apartment and went home for the rest of the day.
