Dream Home.

At the hospital, Daniel checks in on a sleeping Kate and when she wakes up, she tells him he was smiling in her dream, much the same as he is now. In the dream, he gave her a miracle pill that made her healthy and strong. Daniel wishes things were as simple as that and lets her know that in an hour, they’ll know what to do next, after they see how much the tumor has shrunk.

Chloe arrives at the pub to an excited Lucas who shows her a photo of a five bedroom house with a pool that he put a bid on. He takes her hand and she smiles. He says she’s been a big part of Allie’s life and he sees her as family, though they haven’t discussed marriage yet. He has felt ambivalence on her part and wonders if she doesn’t think he’s committed. He says he is and thinks he’d be a great husband for her. “You will be. I truly believe that,” she says, but she doesn’t sound convincing. She admits she saw Brady in Salem. Lucas is surprised and thinks it’s great. Chloe says he’s been clean for almost a year. Lucas asks if she’s going to leave him and go back to Brady but that’s not what she’s saying. Seeing Brady made her realize how lucky she is to have Lucas. Lucas is happy to hear this and leans in for a kiss.

Lucas and Chloe visit with Kate at the hospital, as Kate listens to David Bowie on her iPod. She feels good, though the treatment was rough, and thanks both Lucas and Chloe for their support. Daniel arrives with the test results and says it was a success and the tumor has shrunk! Kate shares her happiness with Chloe and Lucas and Daniel tells them to enjoy their visit. He’ll go over what comes next, later. He leaves the room and seems troubled. Chloe leaves the two alone, saying she’ll go get Allie another picture book and will return later. After she leaves, Lucas comments on how things have improved with she and Chloe. Kate says Chloe has been kind and she makes him happy. “My feelings towards her have changed…slightly,” she says. He shows her a photo of the house he plans to purchase. It’s his dream home. Kate doesn’t want him to move too fast. Lucas plans on asking Chloe to marry him, much to Kate’s shock. She says she’s happy for him if this is what he wants. Lucas hugs her – he wants her at his wedding! That’s what Kate wants but she just wants Lucas to be cautious. Lucas loves Chloe unlike anyone he has ever loved before. She talks about love and Lucas tells her he has a good feeling she’ll have that.

Daniel paces the park where Chloe finds him. She notices his mood and asks if he’s all right. He chalks it up to a long day, but Chloe sees through him. It can’t be about Kate, she comments but wonders if he’s keeping a secret about her cancer. Daniel downplayed how successful the results were. He’s supposed to be detached but he becomes emotionally involved. He’s working on it but Kate’s not another patient. He sees this as a personal failure that he can’t detach. He felt anxious because he can’t tell Kate she’s cured, either. He asks for a huge favor and asks Chloe not to tell Lucas about their talk.

Be Prepared!

Nicole and EJ arrive at the hospital for Nicole's examination. "Everything seems fine," says Daniel, after examining Nicole. He tells them their next appointment is an ultrasound. They may be able to determine sex, he says. They smile at each other. Nicole wants to know, but EJ wants to find out when the baby's born. Nicole's partial to the scout's mode, "You know, Be Prepared!" In the end, they decide to wait, but Daniel tells them that they may find out accidentally if the baby turns, during the ultrasound. They giggle and EJ tells her not to peek. He dashes out for a quick call and Nicole asks Daniel about sex. Daniel says the baby is protected by the amniotic sac so they can feel free to have sex. EJ returns with a kiss and goes outside Nicole's door to ask Daniel about sex! He wonders if it would be safe.

Chloe arrives at the hospital to ask Daniel how Kate is. She can't receive visitors he says and Daniel smiles. Kate told him about Chloe's visit and how it inspired her to take the risk and go aggressive. Chloe was glad to help and calls Kate a good person - a great mother. Daniel thanks her and gets a call and leaves.

Control Freak!

At the hospital, Daniel explains to Philip, Lucas and Chloe that Kate's become anemic and that it's a critical time for Kate, who asked to see them. Philip and Lucas beg Daniel to stop the chemotherapy but Daniel explains she'll only get worse after a few days. She needs to make her own decision about her treatment. The men step outside as Chloe sits with Kate and tells her that her sons love her so. "That's a credit to you. Your big heart." She gets emotional as she tells Kate that her sons want the doctors to ease up. Chloe knows Kate's a fighter and she knows what it takes to beat this thing. She urges her not to give up on the treatment. "It's your only hope," she says, brushing her tears away. She tells an unconscious Kate of how she wanted to let go during chemo, but she knew her family needed her, just as Kate's family needs her! Kate wakes up and thanks Chloe for the pep talk.

Chloe leaves Kate's room and tells the men that Kate's awake. They all pile into her room and she tells them she's felt better. They express how they want her to quit chemo, but she refuses. She feels it's her only chance, so they decide to stick by her.

In the hall, Daniel goes to Chloe and realizes that she talked to Kate. He thanks her.

Acquired Taste!

Daniel finds Chloe working out at the gym and helps her fix her form with using weights. Chloe is surprised. "Is there anything you don't know how to do?" He tells her, "Opera singing!" They discuss Kate and how Chloe thinks she's lucky to have him as her doctor, until Philip interrupts. "Maybe not!" Philip thinks that Daniel is abandoning Kate, who is having terrible side effects from the chemo. Daniel reminds him that they knew this would happen and says Dr. Knapp is taking over for him so he can have a break. Chloe takes Philip aside and tells him Daniel's doing the best he can and that he's an excellent doctor and if Kate trusts him, that should be worth something. She encourages him to apologize to Daniel, so he does. When Philip goes off to take a call, Chloe goes to Daniel and says he doesn't understand the randomness of life-threatening illnesses. He can't get used to this. Chloe asks, "You really love her, don't you?" Later, Chloe tells him she was out of line for asking and thanks him for being so nice to Philip. Daniel calls his relationship with Kate complicated. She calls her situation very domestic and different. "Life is good," she grins, but Daniel asks, "But not great?" Chloe says she's lucky to have both Lucas and Allie, but admits sometimes she misses traveling. She had an exciting life in Europe that was a little lonely, but always exciting! She misses singing, but Daniel thinks she could have the best of both worlds. He misses the ocean and surfing and says surfing is in his blood. "So you're saying we can have our cake and eat it too?" Daniel replies, "Damned right!" Lucas wouldn't want her to give up her dream. Chloe smiles. Nicole would say the same thing. They discuss how Nicole's in jail for Trent's murder but Chloe knows she's innocent. Nicole's kind and caring and important to her. Chloe admits she's not exactly Ms. Popularity, but Daniel says maybe she's an acquired taste and tells her that's a compliment. "So are you by any chance airing the taste," she asks. Daniel says, "Definitely." Chloe calls this good for her ego, but Kate wouldn't like it. Daniel says he'll try to talk to Kate about her. Chloe's thankful.

BFF?

Philip goes to Kate's room and wakes her up by accident. Kate thinks she has lost track of time and they discuss how grown up Philip is. "A big mogul." Philip would give it all up to be back in the first grade. "Those were great times," he remembers and says he thought she was invincible. She had all the answers. "And you could believe I was immortal. Much to my shock, I'm not," Kate says. She may not have much more time. Philip refuses to believe this and they profess their love for each other. Kate soon falls asleep and Philip leaves, while Daniel sits with her. He accidentally wakes her and she asks how the treatment is doing. He tells her it's too early to say, though she's doing well. They need to moderate it because the treatment is so aggressive. Philip returns but stops at the door and listens as Daniel says she has given him hope. She says no matter what happens, she'll always know that he did all he could to save her, but what he may never know is how much it means to her. Later, he tells Daniel he's happy with the peace they've made and he asks that whatever happens with Kate, he won't get involved with their relationship. "Just save her," he pleads. Later, Daniel goes to an unconscious Kate and tells her that her kids, Chelsea and even him, need her. "Come back to me," he says.

Two Tigers and a Ball of Twine.

Kate paints her fingernails as Daniel looks over her chart. She recalls the first time she painted them and how sophisticated she felt. Daniel says she has another half hour of Chemo. Kate's tired, so Daniel leaves her. Kate reads and a nurse interrupts.

Outside her room, Chloe and Lucas arrive and Lucas has questions for Daniel. He wonders what Kate's odds are at beating this. He knows that it depends on early detection and how the patient responds to treatment. Daniel agrees that's true but isn't sure about her odds. There are too many variables, he tells Lucas and Chloe, but admits the odds aren't good, but Kate has a lot to live for and is going through an aggressive treatment. "It's her best chance to survive," he says and invites Lucas to call him anytime to discuss it. Chloe supports Lucas and thinks Kate will get through this. They hug, and when the nurse leaves Kate's room, Lucas goes in alone, to see her.

In her room, Kate continues to read until Lucas arrives. She welcomes him to the penthouse and laughs. She says it's feeling like a mini-vacation, but Lucas thinks she's trying to prove how strong she is. He asks her to use her energy to fight. He returns to Chloe and asks if she'd talk to his mother about fighting cancer while he goes to the gift shop to get her a present. Chloe's skeptical that Kate will want to see her but agrees to it. She goes inside, but Kate tells her to get out! Chloe cares for Lucas and knows she means a lot to him. She was happy to come in here, she says. Kate apologizes for being so rude and admits she cares more about her kids than herself, probably. Since her illness will be the hardest on Lucas, she'd like to call a truce. She still hasn't forgiven her for breaking Philip's heart. Chloe says that's fine and once she leaves, she stands outside Kate's door, taking deep breaths. Daniel comes upon her. "Are you alright?" She confesses she's a cancer survivor and still takes anti-rejection drugs. She still feels she's on borrowed time. Lucas arrives and they're set to take Allie out trick-or-treating. They plan to take photos for Kate. Daniel asks if they'll return tomorrow and give Kate time to rest this evening. Chloe thanks Daniel for the talk and they leave.

Daniel goes to Kate with the magazine Lucas purchased for her and lies on her bed and visits.

Family Sticks Together!

Chelsea goes to Daniel about Kate. She needs to know what's going to happen to Kate, but Daniel can't discuss her case. Chelsea lashes out that she doesn't understand why he gets to know, but apologizes for ranting and tells him she wishes she could take back the horrible things she said to her grandmother. Daniel knows Kate will forgive her. Chelsea admits Kate's been good to her and feels it's her turn to take care of her. Daniel's impressed that Chelsea made this decision and Chelsea says she can't promise anything, but she'll try. She brings up the betrayal, and says Kate's life is far more important than her petty feelings. Daniel says they're not petty. Chelsea says she developed a crush on him and thinks he did too, but that's all it was. Daniel tries to stop her from talking, but she talks over him and asks him to promise to help save Kate. Later, after Daniel has left, she makes a promise to herself to take care of Kate as Kate did her, during her time in the hospital.
