for. Karen is about to take a break, but Grace comes up and tell Karen and Joe
that Boardman wants to see them both. Karen puts her package away and
goes to face the dragon with Joe. At the desk, a nurse (didn't catch
her name) told Grace that it's odd for a husband to send express mail
letters instead of picking up the phone. She wonders what's up with
Karen and Joe. Grace told her to mind her own business. Karen and Joe come back,
complaining about Boardman again. He's harder than usual today because
a teenager died on his watch. Karen starts ranting, so Joe cracks that

Karen. Grace says Karen is a grown, competent physician, and that Joe

every time she gets stiffed by a date. Eve wishes she could forget the
whole date. She flashes back to the dinner with Bennett, who threatened
to have her kicked out of the GH internship. Scott asks where Eve's
mind just went. "Start the car," she says. They drive for a while in
silence, which Serena doesn't like. Eve says the least she could do is
chat since Serena and Scott came for her. Just then, Serena gets
carsick. Scott wants to pull over, but Eve won't let him. Eve shows
Serena how to press on her wrist so she won't get sick. It works.
"Doesn't it feel good to solve your own problems?" Eve asks. Serena
says it must be cool to fix people as a doctor, and suggests that Eve
can do that with her own kids. Serena then wants to sing "Twinkle,
Twinkle, Little Star," her mommy and daddy's favorite song. Eve makes
Scott pull over. Eve exits the car and cries. Scott joins her and asks
after her. She says the talk about mothers got to her. Scott assumes
she misses her mother, Eve soon corrects him. Eve doesn't think she's
far enough away from her mom. Eve says it seems she can never rise
above who she was, and that her date reminded her of that. Scott
recommends not seeing this guy again. He then told her to compose
herself so she won't worry Serena. Eve pulls it together, gets back in
the truck and told the little girl that she got carsick. Serena
presses on Eve's wrist to help her out. Scott smiles as the ladies sing
"Old MacDonald Had a Farm". They take Serena to her grandparents.
While the girl is inside, Scott offers to help Eve if she'll tell him
what happened on her date.

doesn't know what it says, he bets it's not good. Frank joins Julie at
a table. She wonders if Frank and her dad just got off to a bad start.

respecting Julie's right to live her own life. Julie is sure her dad
didn't mean to let it slip to Joe that Bennett is her father. Julie
declares her father is honest. Before the conversation can go any
further, Frank gets an emergency page. He calls it in, learns about the

After driving Eve home from the country restaurant, Scott demanded an explanation from her. Eve didn't tell Scott about Bennett, but said that she had made a mistake in thinking that a creep from her past could have changed and that she had fallen for his line all over again. Scott told Eve that it wasn't her fault and not to blame herself. Eve, however, disagreed and blamed herself for the disastrous evening. Scott gained insight into Eve when she told him that she always expected consequences for the bad choices she makes. Scott then urged Eve to put painful experiences behind her. Later, at the hospital, Scott became suspicious when he saw Eve's reaction to Bennett. Frank suffered smoke inhalation in the fire.

Bennett agreed to perform the surgery and assured Lucy that is was a routine procedure. Scott took exception to the way Bennett humiliated Karen in front of her co-workers and Bennett and Scott had a heated argument. Meanwhile, an exhausted and overwrought Karen assured Ellen that she would be able to assist on Kevin's surgery.
