In her room, Tibby watches hours of TV and eats until she throws up. She ignores several calls from Mrs. Graffman, who leaves a message asking her to visit Bailey.

Carmen calls her father. She knows that apologizing will instantly mend their relationship, but instead she tells him how she truly feels, expressing her anger and disappointment. She asks him point-blank why he left her and her mother. He apologizes sincerely to her, and she realizes that he is crying.

Afterward, Carmen visits Tibby, who asks her to leave. She overhears another message from Mrs. Graffman begging Tibby to come visit; Bailey has an infection, and her prognosis is not good. Carmen brings Tibby the pants and tells her to go see Bailey.

Tibby sleeps for hours but wakes in a panic, wondering if it’s already too late to see Bailey. She races to the hospital, where Bailey is asleep, hooked up to several machines. Tibby climbs into bed with her and holds her hand.
