(Ben walks in while Zeke and mick are having a conversation)

Ben: Well, we can talk about all that on the ride back to the city. Grace, ally and Cal are loaded in. Let's hit it.
(Alison walks through the door holding tightly onto her teddy bear and positioning the beanie on her head out of her eyes)
Ben: we'll not ally so I thought
Baby what are you doing you should be in the car
(Ben takes a knee to reach his daughters level)
Ally: dada I want to go with him
(Alison points to Zeke while having a wide smile on her face)
(Zeke looks at the girl and smiles not knowing what to say)
Ben: baby we're just about to head out right guys
(Ben says while picking the 2 year old up)

Zeke: I-I think I'm actually just gonna stay up here for a while. This place has great cocoa.
Ben: We're taking Cal and ally straight to the hospital. We know someone there that can have a look at you as well.
Zeke: I'm fine, really. I just need some time to process everything before I go back to civilization.
Ben: Zeke, you need to come. We don't know if that's infected...
Zeke: Sorry. I'm not going. Not yet.
Mick: I'll stay with him.
Ben: What?
Excuse us ally you talk with Zeke for a second
(Ben puts his daughter down and she waddles over to Zeke putting her hands out to Zeke as if she had knew him forever)
(Ben and mick have there conversation while ally talks to Zeke)
Ally: zeky are you not coming with us
(Zeke looks down at the young girl that now sits in his lap smiling at the nickname she had given him)
Zeke: no honey but it's ok I'll be fine
Ally: can I stay with you
(Zeke watch's as the young girl cuddles into his side as her beanie falls of her head he smiles at how the little girl he just met wanted to be by him so bad and fixes her hat to be back on her head)
Zeke: no honey you need to stay with your mommy and daddy
Ally: oh ok will you come see me and cal
Zeke: of course I can
(Ally sits up and grabs her bear)
Ally: here you have this till you see me
(Zeke smiles at the young girls offer but knows she won't be happy later without her bear and rejects)
Zeke: ally you need that I don't I'll be ok
Ally: ok
(She smiles at him and embraces into his chest she sits up at him and smiles right when Ben walks out with mick)
Ben: right monkey it's time to go
Ally: ok daddy
Mick: come here baby
(Ally runs over to her aunt as she picks up the young girl throwing her into the air and kissing her face once back into her arms)
Ally: I love you auntie Mickey
Mick: baby I love you too
(Mick puts the girl down and she runs over to her dad but before walking out the door she says one last goodbye)
Ally: bye bye zeky
(Zeke smiles while Ben and mick look at each other about the new nickname they learned about)
Zeke: bye honey
(Zeke says while waving to the young girl watching Ben close the door leaving both him and mick)

(At the hospital)
Saanvi: They're going to be fine. Slight cold symptoms. Nothing a good night's sleep won't knock out.
(Ally jumps of the big bed and walks over to her father who scoops her up into his arms and ally rests her head on his shoulder)
Grace: Thank you for coming in on your day off.
Saanvi: It's no problem. I wanted to check on some patients anyway.
Grace: Don't you ever take a vacation?
Saanvi: Well, I went to Jamaica. ( Chuckles ) Right. I guess that kind of went sideways. Actually, it went sideways even before the plane disappeared. The person I was supposed to go with... Just didn't work out.
Ben: Right. 8B. The seat beside you was empty. I can't believe I never...
saanvi: Yeah. Okay, um, Cal, I think you're ready to go. Although I think Bernadette just refilled her famous candy jar at the nurses' station.
Cal: can ally come
Ben: Come straight back.
Grace: One. Only one.
(The two siblings run off together)
Saanvi: for Alison she's still not growing by the results of the tests nothing has changed
(Grace looks at Ben concerned)
Grace: so she just stopped growing
Saanvi: we'll I didn't want to have to say it but yeah by each time I test her results are the same or decrease
Ben: how is that possible
Saanvi: I have no idea it could be to do with the stress her body is taking after the plane being stuck the same for 5 years while we continued to grow she didn't being she was the youngest on flight 828 and now her body and mind is just like that
(Ben and grace look at each other taking in the news they have just been told questions and questions go through there mind)
(Saanvi tries to change the subject)
I just... I can't believe it happened again. What's his name?
Grace: Zeke.
Saanvi: Okay. I need to run the tests on him to see if he has the same blood marker that we do.
Ben: I was hoping you'd say that because I don't normally carry things like this around with me.
Grace: I hope it's enough to test.
Ben: Just please be careful. We have no idea if the Major's watching us. If she finds out how Cal and ally led us to the cabin and Zeke... S-She can never know that.
Grace: No one can.
Cal and ally both say: Know what?
Grace: Uh, nothing. Do you guys want to get going?
Cal: Yeah.
Ally: yuppie mama
(Ally holds her hands out for her mother and grace picks her up while they start to walk out)
