KING'S BAY MEMORIAL HOSPITAL

"Molly didn't send me to do anything," Jason says. "She came home and told me what had happened -- what you did. I was the one who decided to come see you."

"So what are you trying to get me to do? Admit I'm wrong?" Sarah squeezes Brent's arm unconsciously. "I won't do it, Jason. I'm not wrong. Molly's the one who caused the problems."

Jason folds his hands in front of his mouth. He exhales deeply and then speaks. "Look, I know Molly's probably not totally innocent here. But I also know that she hasn't done anything deliberate to interfere in your marriage. You and Brent had plenty of problems by yourselves."

"The problems come from her, don't you realize that? If Molly would just go away -- everything would be fine."

"That's not true, Sarah."

"Yes, it is!" Sarah fires back, upping the volume of the confrontation several notches. "I don't regret blocking her from this room, not one bit. I've had the chance to sit with Brent, to talk to him ... I never would've been able to do that with her floating around. For the first time in a long while I feel a little bit optimistic about my marriage. I'm damn happy I had Molly kept out of here!"

Jason is about to respond when he glances down casually -- and realizes that Brent's eyes are open.

"Brent," he says lightly.

Confusion and a pang of nervousness rattle Sarah. "What?"

"He -- look." Jason points to the bed and Sarah turns, expecting to see something horrible. But it's not something horrible -- it's the miracle for which she has been waiting. Brent is awake.

She smiles warmly at him, squeezing his arm again. But his reaction tells her that something horrible has just happened. There is no warmth in his face and his flesh feels cold now beneath her fingers.

He heard.
