Meanwhile, Patrick and Emma are having a fine time together at home. Matt stops by with a baby care package and Patrick hands her over so he can make them a sandwich. They bicker over what kind of car sound Emma likes the most and then settle in to play racecar video games with Emma napping in between them.
Robin arrives home with a cup of hot chocolate in her hand. She finds Emma sleeping soundly between Matt and Patrick while they play video racing games. Matt goes back to work and Robin says that she knows she should be grateful that Emma is healthy, but she can't figure out how to be a good mother. Patrick assures her that they'll figure this out together.
Patrick is ready to leave for work and Robin has just finally gotten Emma to sleep. She tells him that she needs to clean the house before she can nap and he offers to get her a nurse to help out. She reminds him that's why she took maternity leave so that she could do this stuff herself. As soon as he leaves, Emma wakes up. Robin tries to comfort her, but Emma won't stop crying. Maxie shows up and is aghast at what Robin's wearing. She says, "Your outfit might be cute for skid row but not for mid-town Port Charles!" She insists that she can take care of Emma while Robin showers.
Patrick reports to work and shows new pictures of Emma to Epiphany, Matt and Leyla. Although he claims to be fine with only a few hours of sleep a night, Epiphany can see through his yawns. Matt offers to do his rounds and Epiphany tells him to at least follow Patrick to make sure that he doesn't fall down. Within minutes however, Patrick is called into emergency surgery. He tells Matt to scrub in and kick him in the shins if he falls asleep.
Patrick comes home and finds Robin trying like crazy to get Emma to stop crying. He plucks her out of her bassinet and her cries turn into coos. Completely frustrated, Robin asks Patrick to teach her how to be as great of a parent as he is.
Patrick returns home after a rough day in surgery. Robin greets him with a smile, but is sorry that she didn't get time to wash the sour milk smell out of her hair. They plop down on the sofa together and try to relax until Emma wakes up. Robin mentions the giant turkey that Mac bought for Thanksgiving and Patrick comments that he hates turkey. Robin knows, but since Anna's in town, they're going to do a big family thing. She asks how he used to spend Thanksgiving and he said that he used to go on vacation somewhere warm. They chuckle about how different things are now and Robin wonders what their lives would've been like if they hadn't met when they did. Patrick smiles and recalls the 'butterfly effect'. He explains that when a butterfly flaps its wings in China it ultimately changes the waves in New York. Robin has rested her head in his lap and smiles at the thought of it. She drifts off into a dream.
Fresh from Paris, Robin gets off the GH elevator and is greeted by her roommates, Kelly and Lainey. They excitedly fill her in about the hot new neurosurgeon on the staff. Later, Robin meets him face-to-face (kind of) when she comes across him in the shower with Leyla!
Dr. Patrick Drake and Robin simply cannot agree on how to treat their mutual patients and they argue all the time. She can't stand his macho ego and general horniness, and he generally tells her to go out and get some sex before she dries up and blows away. Meanwhile, a new doctor introduces himself as Matt Hunter and asks to see the Chief of Staff, Alan Quartermaine.
Later, Patrick finds himself at Jake's and hooks up with Carly after a quick game of pool. Robin, Lainey and Kelly are slamming tequila and scoffing at his smooth moves.
A couple months later, the tension between Dr. Scorpio and Dr. Drake has escalated. Alan approaches the nurses' desk and introduces the new neurosurgeon, Dr. Matt Hunter. Patrick is prickly about not being included in the decision and Matt dumps the news on him that he is his half-brother.
