Patrick leaves Jason with Robin so he can go check on Emma. Jason turns to Robin and says that she's been on his mind every minute. He reminds her that she taught him about faith and says that's what he has for her. Anna comes in and Jason tries to make a hasty exit. Anna says that Robin has told her that he's been very pivotal in her life and Jason says that it works both ways.
Anna fusses over Robin's bedding and talks about how amazing Patrick is being. Just then, he wheels Emma in and says that it's feeding time. He asks Anna to do the honors, but she gently tells him that he needs to figure it out. After she leaves, he gently picks his daughter up and places the nipple in her mouth. Emma immediately starts sucking from the bottle and Patrick tells her how good it must be. Robin's eyes have opened and all she can do is give a little smile. Patrick notices and says, "The family's all here."
At the hospital, Kim orders Patrick to start CPR and then orders everyone else from the room. They watch from the door as Patrick, Kim and the other doctors work to save Robin. After they have Robin's pressure back up, Kim tells Patrick he has to go now. Matt leads him from the room. Anna and Mac ask what is going on; Spinelli and Maxie watch from a few feet away. Patrick can't talk so Matt tells them that Robin's blood won't clot and they might lose her. "No, we won't," Anna says and stalks away. Mac sits down and Spinelli offers to get him something to drink in his Spinelli way. Mac turns him down and starts talking about Robin and Patrick. "She's come close to happiness and something has always happened to take it away," he says. Spinelli tells Mac that Robin is strong and will be okay.
Maxie is the first to go in and sit with Robin. She tells Robin to hold on because they can't face another loss. She begs Robin not to bail out and takes her hand. She says the baby is fine and that one day Robin will be her hero just like Anna is Robin's hero. She says Robin can't leave Emma without a mother the way their mothers sometimes left them. Anna comes in next and tells Robin how much she loves her. She says Robin will know how much she was loved because of Emma. She tells Robin not to give up.
Things are tense in the delivery room as everyone waits to hear Robin's baby's first cry. Finally, she does and Kelly announces that she's healthy. After a big sigh of relief, the proud mom and dad hold their little girl. Epiphany allows Anna, Mac and Maxie in so they can all be together. Patrick jokes that the baby's name is Millicent, but then tells Robin to do the honors. She announces little Miss Emma Grace Scorpio Drake. When Patrick holds her for the first time, his face grows somber as he says that she has a tiny nick on her ear. Robin's face falls because she realizes that could mean the baby was exposed to HIV.
Out in the waiting room, Mac reminds Anna that Robin's viral load is virtually undetectable. For her part, Maxie rambles to Spinelli turning Emma into a fashion icon before she can walk.
Soon, Anna comes in to meet her granddaughter and gushes over her relentlessly. When Robin worries about the possibility of Emma being HIV positive, Anna promises that she'll worry about her child forever no matter what. Next, Mac and Maxie come in. Maxie is afraid to hold the baby, but she tells her how much they all love her. They talk about Georgie and then Mac promises to be a doting great uncle. Robin beams as she takes it all in.
Back in Port Charles, Anna brings Spinelli into Robin's room to meet Emma. Robin tells him that he should be her daughter's honorary uncle, but Mac doesn't want Emma exposed to computer hacking. When Kelly comes in, she announces that Emma is HIV negative. Then, Robin crashes.
Out in the waiting room, Anna is very upset and Mac tries to remain calm. Maxie sits next to a very sullen and quiet Spinelli. Matt doesn’t know exactly where he fits in so he rambles out the periphery of the family members and the staff.
Anna is allowed to go see Robin, so she puts on a brave face. She tells Robin that she's nearly a mother now and she needs to give her baby all of her strength. After Anna is asked to leave, Robin calmly tells Patrick that her mother is right. She tells him to save the baby instead of her if it comes down to that.
