Back home (1)

The plane ride to Seattle passed in silence.

Hunter, Mia, Quentin, and Brianna slept through the flight. After a stressful night without sleep, they were exhausted. 

Liz didn't want to go to a hospital, but she promised to go when they reach Seattle. That is why they headed straight to the airport from the small hotel where Dr. Snow booked a room.

Liz took painkillers which helped her sleep, but it was a restless one and she would twitch and move.

Max wanted Liz to get a checkup right away, but he understood her need to leave Las Vegas as soon as possible. The previous night was stressful, and Max was amazed at how Liz braved through it all.

On the plane, Max was unable to sleep. He cradled Liz in his arms, and he felt relief that she was back in the touching distance. Every time she grimaced or let out a whimper in her sleep, his heart tightened.
