On the way back, Felicity must have been exhausted from all the commotion earlier—she fell asleep almost as soon as they got into the car.

"Mom, Felicity's really not feeling well today. We're going to have to visit another time."

"That's alright, honey. Go take care of her," Dorothy replied. Then, as only a mother can, she added, "Listen, I know we don't know if Felicity's pregnant or not, but you need to treat her like she might be. If any doctor prescribes her medication, make sure she doesn't take anything that's not safe for pregnant women, alright?"

Miles frowned slightly. "I will."
