At the hospital, Sasha is headed to see her doctor. She suddenly gets a text from the jewelers, who are dropping the charges against Cody. She thinks Gladys must know something about this given she doesn’t look surprised. Gladys admits the jewelers contacted her and told her apparently the bracelet clasp was faulty, and it was found by a waiter who put it in Cody’s pocket. Sasha is stunned and asks if she can now admit she was wrong about Cody. Gladys admits she was wrong about Cody, but he’s wrong about her, and she’s not a diabolical mother-in-law. Sasha never thought that but wishes Gladys would have told her. Gladys was going to after her appointment and hopes she can forgive her. Sasha says of course she does, but thinks she needs to apologize to Cody. Gladys hopes this doesn’t cause problems for her and Cody. Sasha says there is no me and Cody. Sasha heads in to see Dr. Monty.

Sasha has her appointment with her doctor, and she feels things are back on track. The doctor doesn’t want her to feel the need to prove herself to him, so he needs her to be honest. He can see she’s anxious and asks what’s on her mind. She admits she’s worried about supporting her friends, both at work and personally, and mending relationships she’s lost. He says there are many ways to wind down and de-stress, and recommends a mindfulness meditation app. He has something else and excuses himself. He soon returns with a mild sedative to help with her anxiety. She asks if it’s safe to take with her anti-depression pills and if it is habit-forming. He says the medications are often prescribed together, but admits it can be habit-forming. However, he will monitor her intake and he is confident she’s far enough into her recovery she can handle this.

In Willow’s room, Michael says Dr. Randolph is sending someone in with news. TJ arrives and has life-changing news for them, and is so happy Terry is letting him give it to them.

Precautions will need to be taken at their home, but she can go home in a few hours.

Michael worries this isn’t a good idea, as they don’t have time to prepare and sterilize the house that quickly. TJ thinks the Quartermaine staff there can help with that, and Willow just wants to hold her babies again. TJ understands Michael’s concerns, and basically, her immune system is like baby Amelia’s, she has almost none. Willow understands and says it sounds like she’ll still be in isolation even at home. TJ says she will, and she’ll have to only allow visitors from a small circle of friends and family. He says a nurse will be by to talk everything over with them, and with her medications.

TJ leaves them, and Michael and Willow celebrate. Willow thinks they’ll get there happily ever after all. Later Michael lets Willow know everything will be prepared by the time they get home. They bring up the visitor list, and Willow admits aside from Sasha and Chase, she’d like to add someone else to the list. TJ returns and tells them she’s free to go but remember, no people outside their limited bubble. TJ departs, and Michael asks if TJ is who wanted to put on the list. She does, but the person she also wants to add, well he may not like. He tells her whoever she wants, and she admits it’s Nina.

Gladys pays Sonny a visit and asks if he talked to Sasha about the guardianship. He did and understands why she was worried. However, he thinks Sasha is ready to handle herself, and if the doctor and the judge agree, they both need to stay out of her way. Gladys still worries about Sasha buckling under the weight of it all, but Sonny says it’s not up to her anymore! He sees her out and yells, “Give it up!”

In the hall, Gladys gets a call from Dr. Monty. He says he did as they discussed, Sasha is on a new prescription medicine, and it’s only a matter of time. He notes if she’s having second thoughts he can make an excuse to take her off it. Gladys wants to move forward, as it’s the only move she has left.
