Robin wakes up to the sound of Emma crying. Patrick brings the baby to her and they all sit on the sofa together. Robin says that she's glad they met when they did, but even if they hadn't they certainly would have found each other. Patrick smiles and says that this is what he always wanted, but he just didn't know. He asks her to marry him and Robin laughs at the thought of trying that again.
Patrick says to Emma, "Tell Momma to say yes."
To her daughter, Robin says, "Tell Daddy to say when."
They agree on the week after Christmas.
Robin is impressed with Patrick's ability to put their daughter to sleep. She tells him that he can go to the hospital and do rounds because they'll be just fine. After he's gone, the baby needs feeding but she has a hard time warming the milk with one hand (she's trying to comfort Emma with the other). Finally she just sits with the crying baby and admits that she doesn't know how to help her right now.
Patrick is trying to look at charts at GH, but keeps asking Liz questions about formula and car seats. Epiphany tells him to either be a doctor or a new dad but if he's going to look at charts he should focus on the charts. Then Robin calls and admits that she can't get Emma to stop crying. Patrick rushes home to help out.
Patrick gets home and is promptly able to quiet the baby. He says that she probably got tired, that's all. Robin says that they both know what's going on. "You're a great dad. And, I suck," she says.
Patrick is at GH pushing Robin's wheelchair as if he were transporting Faberge eggs. It's time for Robin and Emma to go home, but he's filled with worry about what the world will throw at them. Too many germs in the lobby and too many fumes in the parking garage are two examples of his concerns. Epiphany and Liz tell them to go get some rest, but Patrick quotes the baby manual about how long babies sleep. As they gingerly wheel into the elevator, Liz and Epiphany just shake their heads.
The car ride home is equally interesting. Patrick has bought a minivan and is fussing about whether or not they attached the baby seat properly. He's driving 15 mph, too. "Twenty one, here we come," he says after Robin asks him to pick up the pace a little.
Patrick has managed to get Robin and Emma home. He's changed the baby and put her down for a nap. As he goes to snuggle with Robin, he tells her that he used to be too arrogant to count his blessings but Emma changed all that. As he moves in for a kiss, the baby cries.
Patrick is in Robin's room fussing over Robin as she holds Emma. He tells her that her bout with DIC was nearly fatal and he's worried about her strength. Robin assures him that she's healthy and on the mend. Later, Matt comes to see Robin while she's resting alone. She shows him pictures of Emma and he admits that he's been checking in on her about twice a day. Robin tells him that he's nice, but Matt denies it. Later, Epiphany comes in and tells Robin and Patrick that mother and child have been released!
At GH, Patrick tells Anna that as long as Robin's blood won't clot, her chances of survival are slim. Anna tells him to stop thinking like a doctor and start acting like a father! He goes back to Robin's bedside and Robin weakly asks how Emma is. Patrick jokes about his fathering skills as Anna looks on. She can sense that Robin is giving up, so she tells Patrick that Robin needs to see her baby. After Patrick is gone, Anna speaks to Robin sharply and tells her how much her daughter needs her. When Patrick returns with Emma, Anna leaves them alone. Robin gently holds the baby and promises Patrick that she's going to recover somehow.
