That is never a good thing.

It will be the best thing for mother and baby, though.

Is it too soon?

No, not too soon. There's a good chance there'll be a healthy baby at the end of it if all goes well.

That is very good.

I have faith that Amanda and the baby will both be fine. She's a very determined lady!

I have heard good things about you, so I do not doubt that both will be healthy if you say they will be.

Thank you. *smiles* I hope to do the best I can for this very special family.

I am certain you will. *smiles* Would you like a flower?

Yes, thank you. *smiles*

*offers her this (http://image.localstreets.com/StoreBuilder/4seasonsflower/franceflorist/product/14/b_y000476457.jpg)*

You are quite welcome.

So beautiful... thank you very much. *smiles*

I am glad you like it. Thank you for taking care of them.

And thank you for being such a good friend to them. John speaks very highly of you.

I value John's friendship. I do not know the others as well, but they are all important, and I hope in the future to know them better.

I'm sure you will get to know them better. And that dear little baby that's coming, too.

I hope so.

Is something wrong with mom?

She's told you about the preeclampsia, right, Gideon?

It's going to be the best thing for your mom and for the baby.

She told me but I thought it would be ok if she rested.

She'll be OK, Gideon. She's a strong lady and the baby will be fine too. I know it.

*nods*

She needs you to be strong for her, too.

I will be.

I know you will. *smiles* You're very like your father.

Thank you.

He's very worried about all of this, but he's so calm. I've never met anyone quite like your dad.

*smiles proudly* Dad's amazing.

He is. Amanda and Zep obviously adore him.

Of course.

You'll all be together soon, you and the baby.

I hope so, I want my family together.

I'll make sure it all works out, Gideon.

Thank you doctor.

Oh dear, what's wrong?

Got a patient with preeclampsia. Will be the best thing for mother and baby if the birth is induced.

Do you suppose that she will be all right?

I think she will be.

That's good.

This sounds familiar. Is the next step of your plan galactic dominion?

Nothing so ambitious right now, just saving two lives.

I can assist you, Doctor - as long as you need my help.

*quietly* I hope she'll be OK, after all!

I'll be happy to have your help, Zep - you have medical knowledge, after all! *smiles* And I think she will be just fine.
