Quincy had been on pins and needles, waiting for Everett's reply.

But as days turned into nights with no call or message, her anxiety began to wane. Realizing that according to her calculated timeline, Everett was due for another episode soon.

"Right now? But... I'm worried Mr. Lopez doesn't want to see me. He made it clear he didn't want me around unless he reached out first."

"With the state he's in, you're the only one who can help Mr. Lopez now! Dr. Quincy, where are you? I'll come pick you up."
