At the hospital, Victoria's condition became worse as her blood pressure fluctuated. Nikki and Victor argued over whether to save their daughter or her unborn child; Nikki believed that Victoria would want the baby to stay inside of her for as long as possible. The doctor then told them that they needed to do an emergency c-section. Nikki broke down as Victor berated her for refusing to let them do surgery. "There's no choice!" he yelled. Nicholas tried to stay positive, but Nikki didn't think the baby would have a chance if he was delivered early. Nick sympathized with Nikki having to make such a difficult decision, but Victor feared that Victoria would die.

Colleen and Adrian went to the hospital to check on Victoria. J.T. filled them in on the dire situation. Colleen called Brad. Adrian went to the hospital chapel. Soon, Brad arrived and barged into Victoria's room. "Time to get your lazy behind out of bed and back to work," he told her. "We all need you." He then asked to speak with Victor outside in the hallway and demanded to know what was going on. After Victor told him, Brad sided with Nikki and thought they should wait to deliver the baby. "What would you do if that were Colleen in there?" Victor argued. Brad had no answer for him. After, Brad told Colleen that he truly believed that Victoria would want the baby to live.... J.T. told Nick that he wants Victoria to live, and they could always have another baby or adopt.... Brad found Nikki and insisted that he loves Victoria. He let her know that he agreed with her. Nikki was grateful for his support.

At the prison, Phyllis and Jana worked on a project for Summer. However, Phyllis couldn't concentrate as she fretted over whether she'd be granted her appeal for early release.

Nick sat with an unconscious Victoria and begged her to wake up. However, his pleas didn't work and she remained in a coma. After, Nick discussed the situation with his father. Victor became angry when Nick hesitated about saving Victoria's life over the baby's. Later, Nikki sat with her daughter and sang her a lullaby. She began to sob as she urged Victoria to snap out of it. After, Nikki asked Adrian what he and Victoria talked about while they were trapped. He replied that Victoria was eager to be a mother. J.T. begged him to tell Nikki how Victoria was also desperate to get out alive. Adrian didn't want to be caught in the middle and wished them the best in making the right decision.

Nikki and Victor cornered Nick and asked him what his feelings are. Nick wasn't sure what he wanted them to do. Victor continued to plead with Nikki to let the doctors deliver the baby.
