Her anxiety grows as she thinks of her patients waiting for her care, prompting her to call Marcus for help.

He informs her that the clinic is overwhelmed with patients, and he urges her to drive straight to the front for assistance, prioritizing her health over her workload, especially given her pregnancy. Despite the chaos, Sydney manages to complete her consultations, though she struggles to find time for herself, barely eating throughout the day. After her appointments, she heads to the Hutton Foundation for a meeting, where the atmosphere is surprisingly friendly, possibly due to the previous day's press conference.
