Natalie is not feeling well to the point of being incapacitated, she and Dr. Basra believing the symptoms side effects of the trial drug. On Dr. Basra's orders, Natalie, who does not want her parents involved, calls in her siblings for support, which may be difficult for Matthew and Maggie, who still are not talking to each other. Natalie doesn't want to burden her children, each who is going through his or her own issue. The one offspring of who she does request something is Caleb, which is to provide testimony against David in any legal proceedings involving Emma and Romy's custody if and when she dies, David who has been trying to negotiate with Natalie without lawyers without she even taking his calls. Caleb also decides to act the head of the house by tackling the broken refrigerator on his own without professional assistance. Emma is preoccupied with the one job for which she has an interview today, which she doesn't really want to admit she wants for self-esteem. And Romy decides to be more proactive in dealing with her anxiety. Natalie is unaware that her siblings are in turn dealing with their own issues, about which they probably would have turned to her for support. Matthew believes he may have opened a door with Nicole in dealing with their marital problems, that belief which may not be reality. Maggie may not be as emotionally prepared for her "marriage" to Raza as she thought. And Oliver learns that he and Romy are not quite on the same page regarding her custody following Natalie's death, Oliver who is reconsidering Romy's want to be his ward instead of Matthew's.
