Later that night Cassie Sam Courtney Anthony and Linda Brandon and Tara are going home. Sam: Are you coming with us Nick.
Nick: I don't want to leave Grace alone.
Sam: she has doctors If she needs anything The only thing staying here will do is keep you up all night on the last night of sleep you'll have in years.
Nick: I'll come home but I'll be back first thing in the morning.
