Robin notices that her charts aren't filed yet and wondered why Nikolas' chart is out. Epiphany tells her to take it up with Emily Quartermaine. Robin says that Emily looking at Nikolas' chart is borderline unethical! Then Epiphany yells at Robin for allowing her personal feelings for Drake Jr. to influence her mood at work. A little later, Lainey asks Robin to talk to her about what's bothering her. Robin admits that she misses Patrick. She says that she eats ice cream and cries herself to sleep and wonders if he's feeling anything at all. She says that it would be easier if they stopped loving each other, but they haven't. Lainey says that she admires them for dealing with their differences about being parents and respecting each other's needs.
Robin and Lainey are at the hospital talking about a patient. Robin is aggravated and she explains that Patrick wanted her to stay home this morning and she used work as an excuse to leave. Lainey puts on her shrink hat and says that she is protecting herself from being too vulnerable to him. Robin hates that she keeps missing opportunities to connect with him. She says that she and Patrick need some time away together. She says that the moment Patrick showed up today he struck up a conversation with Leyla. She says that she doesn't want to be jealous of him, but she can't help it. She says that there's a wall between them lately. She lights up when she remembers Anna's visit and marvels at how fearlessly her mother has lived her life. Lainey asks her what it is that she's afraid of, and Robin admits that she might want to have a baby one day, but Patrick won't even discuss it. "What kind of future do we have if I want to have a child and he doesn't?" Robin asks.
Lainey calls Nikolas to tell him that Tracy Quartermaine has been demanding to see him at Shady Brooke. Later, Nikolas is escorted into Tracy's room as she is ranting at Alan for disappearing. She turns to tell Nikolas that she is not delusional and that he needs to pay attention. "Lulu is in trouble," Tracy warns.
Lainey and Stan share drinks on the roof, trying to escape the summer heat. He starts talking politics and she shuts him down, calling him narrow minded and wondering why he is so interested in his beliefs but isn't interested in getting to know people. They talk some more and Lainey decides to end the evening. She leaves, telling Stan they won't do this again.
Epiphany and Lainey are at the nurse's desk when Epiphany remembers that tonight is Lainey's date with Stan. She hopes that her son takes her to a nice little bistro that she told him about. Just then, Stan shows up at the desk and tells Lainey that she's far too overdressed for where they are going. Lainey simply says that she is happy to "do casual". Stan tells her to meet him at 257 Bristol Street on the roof. Epiphany rolls her eyes and leaves, and Lainey goes to change.
Lainey meets Stan on the roof at the address he gave her. He's surprised to see her in jeans and she says that she wouldn't wear heals to "Tar beach". He is surprised that she even knows that term and then he offers her a beer. She grabs one, and walks over to a brick ledge and pops the lid off with her hand. When they sit down to burgers, Stan tells her that she'd probably rather be at the Metro Court drinking overpriced wine and having people slave for her at minimum wage. Frustrated with her reaction (or lack thereof!), Stan asks, "Why are you working so hard to act like you like all this?" Lainey answers his question with a question, "Why are you working so hard to alienate me?"
Liz shows up for her first day back at work. She acts very cold toward Lainey and Lainey asks her what's wrong. "You suspected me of hurting my son," Liz snaps. She tells Lainey that they will treat each other professionally, but they should try not to see one another. Later, Lainey finds Liz in the locker room and tries to explain that she was just trying to help her after Jake was kidnapped. Liz jumps down her throat and Lainey asks if Liz is really angry at someone else instead of her…Lucky perhaps?
Lainey has gone out to Shady Brooke to counsel Tracy, who is insisting that she has never seen a ghost. Alan is sitting next to Lainey and doing his best to trip Tracy up. "She knows you're lying" Alan warns as Lainey asks Tracy questions. Finally Tracy throws her cup of water and yells that she can't hear herself think. Lainey simply says that they have a lot of work to do. As Tracy proceeds to yell at the doctor, Edward is let into the room. He has brought an affidavit for Lainey to sign that states that Tracy isn't fit to run ELQ anymore.
Stan goes to the hospital to see his mother, and finds her standing next to Lainey. Epiphany tells him that he can't leave the hospital until he asks Lainey for a date. Surprisingly, Lainey gets involved and says "Let's go somewhere private and settle this one-on-one." She and Stan go up to the roof and Lainey laughs and says the Epiphany just wants him to be happy. She asks if it would kill them to just go out and get it over with. She offers to spilt the check and simply go out as friends. Stan tells her that he's trying to change the world -- his way, and doing what his mother wants him to do is no way to start. Lainey suggests that he can stage his revolution after their token date. Then, Stan tells Lainey that she's not his type. Lainey lashes back that he's an arrogant jerk and isn't her type either. As Stan is about to leave the rooftop, he turns and says that a date is the only way to "squash this."
Edward brings Lainey inside to talk to Tracy. Alan says, "I told you so" and Lainey notices that Tracy is agitated as she stares at his chair. Lainey asks if there is anything particular about that chair? Lainey whisks Tracy off for a private conversation and then Monica joins Edward in the study. He rants on about how insane Tracy is acting lately and Monica can't believe that Edward really means that. She says that she would love just 5 minutes of conversing with Alan again - so she could tell him that she loves him. When Tracy returns from her talk with Lainey, she informs Edward that she is fully in charge of her faculties AND of ELQ.
