Emily: Bobbie, these are the updated patient reports.
Bobbie: Oh.
Emily: There you go.
Bobbie: Thank you. Honey, weren't you supposed to go home hours ago?
Emily: Oh, I just wanted to get this finished.
Bobbie: Emily, you're still in school. You have a full course load, and you're helping out here all the time.
Emily: Yes, I like to keep busy.
Bobbie: Is it helping you to keep your mind off Nikolas?
Emily: Hey, Alexis, are you headed home?
Alexis: Yeah, the paperwork's all signed.
Emily: Is the baby okay?
Alexis: We're both fine.
Bobbie: Well, you both need to get some rest. You remember what Dr. Meadows said -- take it slow.
Alexis: I can do that now that Kristina's safe. I wish I could say the same thing for Michael and I pray that he's all right.
Emily: Well, do you need a ride?
Alexis: You know, Ric has the car at the station, so I was going to take a cab.
Emily: No, gosh -- don't be silly. I was just leaving.
Alexis: Are you sure you don't mind?
Emily: No, no, let's go. I'll be back tomorrow, Bobbie.
Bobbie: Why don't you take tomorrow off?
Emily: Don't worry. I'm fine, really.
Alexis: Bye, Bobbie.
Emily: Bye.
Alexis: Did you have any trouble getting her down?
Viola: She tried so hard to stay awake to see you, but the sandman won.
Alexis: Listen, thanks for coming by at the last minute. I really appreciate it.
Viola: It's so good to have her back. Good night, Ms. Davis.
Alexis: I know! I know. Good night. Have a good night, Viola. And you, my friend, should go home, too.
Emily: No. Listen, Alexis, I'm in no rush. Let me help you get settled. I can make you some tea.
Alexis: I'm fine. I can handle that.
Emily: Come on, let me help you. I want to help.
Alexis: Emily, you always do. I think you should go home and take care of yourself.
Emily: I am. Why?
Alexis: I don't want you to take this the wrong way, but you look exhausted and you look anxious.
Emily: Why would I take that the wrong way? Besides, you're supposed to be the one on bed rest.
Alexis: If Monica could see you right now she would be telling you the same thing, too. With everything that's going on -- Michael, with A.J., all of it -- there's no wonder that you're worn out.
Emily: Oh, it's a lot to deal with.
Alexis: Nikolas being in prison, and you know what? You have to tell him I'm sorry that I haven't been able to be there or contact him as much as I'd like.
Emily: No, Alexis. With everything that you've been through, he understands.
Alexis: How is he?
Emily: Oh, lonely. I hate even thinking about it.
Alexis: How are you?
Emily: I miss him. I can't even remember what life was like before all this happened.
Alexis: No, Emily, promise me you're not going to forget about that. Look, now that Kristina is fine and she's safe, I can get to work on his appeal and get him released.
Emily: But we still can't find Helena.
Alexis: You know, there's plenty of people that have seen her, seen that she's alive. It's very good grounds for an appeal. I'm going to get your husband back sooner than you think.
Emily: No, no, no. Listen, I know you're going to do your best, but so much could go wrong, so I'm just going to try to get through these days without him the best I can.
Alexis: No one has ever accused me of optimism, but can you at least try to hope that Nikolas will come back home?
Alexis: Trust Ric to hide all of my caffeine and replace it with herbal tea now that he knows I'm pregnant.
Emily: Oh, it's chamomile. It's supposed to be calming and soothing, right?
Alexis: You changed the subject when I brought Nikolas up. Is there something going on between the two of you?
Emily: No, Alexis, of course not. I want Nikolas to come home. It's the only thing that would make any of this pain worth it.
Alexis: You're referring to Connor?
Emily: Yeah. Yeah, yeah. So many people have made sacrifices for Nikolas. I killed a man, and Lucky almost died.
Alexis: Are you worried that prison is going to change Nikolas?
Emily: No. Nikolas is always going to be the same.
Alexis: You know, I've had plenty of clients who have gone to prison and come back unrecognizable. That is not going to happen to Nikolas because he's too strong from that. He will come back just the same and he will love you just as much.
Emily: I know, but do you really think that we're ever going to get back to the way things were?
Alexis: You'll work at it.
Emily: I know, but, Alexis, sometimes I feel like something in me has been damaged or lost.
Alexis: What do you mean?
Emily: I don't know, there's just been so much pain.
Alexis: Okay, so the two of you will work it out together. That's what you do. You've done it before, challenge after challenge, and it's only made the two of you love each other more.
Emily: Yeah, I know. Of course. I know. You're right. I'm just --
Alexis: You're tired.
Emily: Yeah.
Alexis: You are tired and I understand that, believe me. I'm -- now that Kristina's fine, I feel like I can sleep for a week, and I am suggesting that you go home and you do the same thing.
Emily: Yeah, no, you're right. You know what? We both need rest, so I'm going to take your advice and I'm going to go home and get some sleep. Alexis, thank you.
Alexis: Emily --
Emily: Bye.
Alexis: Thank you for taking me home.
Emily: Yeah.
