The fever medicine must have kicked in.

Felicity slept off the fever later on, sinking into a deeper, more restful slumber. Being sick sapped her of all strength, underlining the need for good rest.

Miles was itching to get answers, but seeing her so frail and feverish, he decided to let his parents wait another day. At least until she was in better shape tomorrow, then he'd have that holistic health practitioner come over. Dorothy, naturally, followed her son's wishes.
