Joe is talking to a couple of the CDC researchers about possible treatments when Angie walks up to them. She tells the researchers that even with the unknowns they should go ahead with experimental treatments because Frankie and Greens don't have much time left. Angie goes to check on Frankie; he asks about his treatment and Angie tells him about the experimental treatment. Joe calls to Angie that the serum is ready and Angie injects Frankie. Frankie begins to dream. In the dream, Angie tells him that Jesse really is alive and Jesse stands by Angie at his bedside. Frankie wakes and pulls the needles and tubes from his arms! Angie rushes in, tells him to calm down and let the medicine work. She returns to the hall and prays to Jesse to give her strength.
Meanwhile at the hospital, Kendall is making calls to anyone and everyone, asking them to come to the hospital to donate blood for Greenlee and Frankie. Zach asks Joe what is going on with the patients and Joe says the virus is mutating and their efforts aren't working!
In Frankie's room, Jesse begins to cry. He apologizes to Frankie for leaving when Frankie was a kid and says he would do anything to fight this disease for his child. "I love you, I never stopped," Jesse says as Frankie opens his eyes! Jesse hurries out of the room. Frankie, whose vision is blurred, wonders if he really saw his father. Joe comes in and Frankie tries to tell him what he saw but can't speak. He writes "Dad was here" on Joe's medical chart! Angie walks in and Joe shows her the note; she is shocked and believes Frankie is hallucinating. Frankie opens his eyes and whispers that Jesse was definitely there. "It was real, Mom," he says before dropping back into unconsciousness. Joe and Angie step into the hall. Angie tells Joe that she can't lose another family member in this hospital. Angie returns to Frankie's bedside to make a few calls to the CDC and other researchers she knows, trying to hurry the research along. Angie returns to Frankie's side, holds his hand and says, "Jesse I need you now more than ever." Tad walks in and tells Angie to take a break. They sit in the hall for a while; Angie tells Tad about the illness and the research. Then she tells him about Frankie's "hallucination"; Tad says he's seen Jesse, too, with Jenny! "He showed me the way home. That's what he's doing for Frankie," Tad says reassuringly. Jesse returns to Frankie's bedside and promises not to leave his son again.
Zach runs into Joe, who says they don't have all the answers yet but they are getting close. Zach returns to Greenlee's room and watches through the window with Aidan for a few moments. Zach tells Aidan that she won't give up easily. "She's strong, she's not gonna quit," Zach says, asking Aidan not to quit on Greenlee, either. They turn back to Greenlee, who begins seizing! Julia is there and tells them to get Angie, quickly!
Angie and Joe rush into Greenlee's room and manage to stop the seizure. Angie says Greenlee can't take much more; she takes the family into the hall and tells them all that she doesn't know how to stop Greenlee's or Frankie's illness. Zach and Aidan fill Jack in about Sylvester. Angie hurries off to the research lab. Jack calls Erica, upset about Greenlee but needing a distraction. He tells her to take care of the stock problem they discussed at dinner earlier that night. Zach and Kendall go down the hall; she is almost asleep standing up and Zach tells her to go home. Kendall refuses, saying she has to be with Greenlee now. She returns to Greenlee's room. Aidan returns to Greenlee's bedside and holds her hand. Ryan arrives.
Joe finds Angie back at Frankie's bedside and tells her that she shouldn't continue treating Frankie because of the conflict of interest clause at the hospital. Because she is Frankie's mom, the hospital would like her to back away! Angie, crying, tells Joe to make an exception to the rule. "I didn't come home just to see my son die," she says. Joe agrees not to remove Angie and she returns to watch Frankie through the window. Angie thinks she sees someone lurking down the hall but can't see anything so she returns to Frankie's side. Around the corner, Jesse is watching!
At Fusion the medics arrive and get to work on Greenlee. They discover an airway obstruction that they can't get rid of, put an oxygen mask on her and hurry away. Kendall finally answers Greenlee's ringing phone and tells Aidan about Greenlee's breathing troubles. She tells him to meet them at the hospital.
Zach, Aidan and Angie are waiting when the medics wheel Greenlee in. Julia hurries into the room, too. Kendall repeats, "She has to be fine," over and over and Zach drags her from the room. He tells Kendall she has to have a blood test because of the time she spent in the woods. She agrees to the test. She and Zach are walking back when he remembers the root; he leaves to check something else out. Kendall returns and Angie tells her that Greenlee is stabilized for now. Angie continues on to Julia who shows her Sylvester's files. Angie asks about the CDC and learns that they haven't returned the hospital's calls yet. Angie returns to Greenlee. Joe walks up and Julia tells him that the CDC is still not on their way. Kendall asks if she can do anything and Joe tells her to get Jack to the hospital quickly. Kendall goes off. Joe then turns to Aidan and tells him that the hospital is going to need blood - and lots of it - if Greenlee's and Frankie's conditions don't improve. Kendall tries calling Jack several times but he doesn't answer his phone.
Joe is finishing up with Frankie at the hospital; Joe tells him he is doing much better. Opal walks in to see him and Joe leaves. She talks to Frankie about Jesse and promises that Angie will fix him right up. Opal shows Frankie a picture of Jesse and Angie and then leaves. Zach walks in and introduces himself to Frankie. He thanks Frankie for pulling him out of the hole and then shows him the rootball. Frankie recognizes it! He says he dug it up for water and then cut some up for a stew. Zach hurries away to find Angie. Angie walks in Frankie's room, missing Zach by moments, and sits with him for a while. They talk about Jesse; Angie promises Frankie that he won't die and leaves. Zach finds her in the hall and tells her about the root. Angie calls the testing lab; she and Zach hurry to the research area.
Tad is waiting for Joe in the hall and asks how the patient is. Joe tells him he doesn't know - and that the patient is Frankie! Joe tells Tad what they know, that "Quinton" was living in the woods and had been helping Aidan. Joe is at a loss as to why Frankie was going under an assumed name or what is wrong with him now. Tad tells Joe about running into Angie at the Valley Inn, thanks to Adam's "wedding reception". They chat a bit more, mostly about Adam's real motivations for the reception. Joe has to return to work so he leaves Tad in the waiting area. Krystal returns, kisses him, and asks if they can go home.
Julia comes into Quinton's room and Joe asks her to alert him when Dr. Hubbard arrives. They both leave and Quinton wakes up. He leaves the bed and gets dressed but before he can leave Julia walks in and makes him get back into bed. Quinton struggles with her and almost makes it out of the hospital room when he collapses. Joe returns and Quentin has a seizure; they manage to stop the seizure and Joe orders everyone to get out of the room; Julia won't leave. She asks Joe what is wrong with Quentin but Joe doesn't know. Joe calls Angie and asks her to come right over to the hospital. He then has Quentin quarantined and he and Julia are the only personnel allowed into the room. Joe says Dr. Hubbard is on the way and when Julia leaves tells Quentin that he has changed since Joe last saw him. He promises not to let anything happen to Quentin. Julia stays with Quentin while Joe goes to check on some other things. Quentin asks Julia about Dr. Hubbard.
