Flashback
In Jasmine's hospital room.
Phillipa-
"Hey Jaz. Brought you some food." I walk through the door.
She smirks a bit and says, 'What'd you get?" trying to peek into the tray.
"I got an omelet. Good right?" I place the tray of food in her lap.
"Ooh yummy." She immediately picks up the fork and starts eating.
She's starting to get her memory back a bit. She remembers everyone in the cast. She remembers her parents and cousins and she remembers her jobs. Although she can daze out sometimes. Seems like her attention span was cut short. I'm just scared to tell her about Leo and Carleigh.
"Jas? Can I tell you something real quick?" I sit down next to her.
"Yeah?" She munches on the egg.
"You remember Leo and Carleigh right?" I say, my hand shaking as I breathe.
She nods, making my heart pound even harder in my chest.
"Well, um, they both were injured badly in the collapse and um..." My breathing becomes shallow.
"They passed away didn't they?" Her happiness fades.
I nod my head as tears fall from my eyes.
End of Flashback
Phillipa Speaking
I knew Jasmine loved Leo and Carleigh. They were like her big siblings. That was probably one of the hardest things I could ever do. Part of me hoped that she wouldn't remember them. (She chokes back tears)
Leslie Speaking
The private funeral was coming up and at that point I was a wreck.
We were still staying at the theatre. We just really needed each others company. I think that's the main thing that got us through the pain.
Flashback
Leslie's POV
I'm sitting in my dressing room when Daveed barges in. He looks like he's about to burst into tears.
"Daveed?" I question as he sits down next to me.
He just sits next to me and just stares at the wall standing before us. I rest my head on his shoulder as a tear falls from my eye.
"So what're we gonna do?" I sniffle.
He doesn't respond.
"D?" I sit up.
He has a sick look on his face.
Like someone punched him in the stomach.
Like he just lost his best friends...
His family.
I rest my head back down. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. For the next five minutes we just sit in silence. I drift off to sleep for a second until I feel something wet drop on my nose. Looking up I see a tear fall from Daveed's puffy face.
"It's gonna be okay D." I reassure him and then give him a tight hug. He grasps me tight and sobs silently in my arms.
I knew he didn't need any words, just comfort.

Lin Speaking
While they were still staying at the theater I was with Anthony.
Flashback
Lin's POV
I'm with Anthony he is sleeping so I was on my phone. As I'm scrolling through Instagram I notice that his heart monitor is slowing down.
"Ant?" I question as I shake him
He isn't waking up.
"Anthony!" I begin to panic.
I'm pretty much punching him at this point and he isn't waking up. His heart monitor is all over the place.
"Anthony please!" I cry out as I frantically press the button that calls the doctors.
He begins to shake violently and that's when it crossed my brain...
He's having a seizure!
"No, no, no, no!" I shout.
The doctors practically bust the door down and rush to words him flinging me out the way. Johnathan, who was in Isabella's room, flies through the door. The look on his face is haunting as he sheds tears watching them rush Ant out the room.
"What the- Where are they taking - What the hell happened!" He stutters.
"I-I..." I'm lost for words at this point.
Everything was fine up until then. What in the world!
End of Flashback
Lin Speaking
I was of course getting worried. Anthony was the only one who was showing zero signs of getting better. Isabella was about to be released from the hospital, Ariana was doing great in her therapy, and she was finally able to walk and move around freely without being in pain, Renee was already back at the theater, she just had to stay on her meds, Jasmine was getting her memory back, Emmy was awake, though she has occipital lobe damage, she's gonna be fine. This was kinda crazy though, considering the fact that Anthony wasn't even in the collapse. He was so stressed from what he saw he damaged his brain.
It sounds stupid, I know, but it can happen.
After a little while he came back but they had to intubate him. (Tears up) It was just hard because I hated seeing my baby boy in this state you know. I know he plays my best friend in the show but we're really close in real life as well so it was painful.
