Back in LA, Sarah is welcomed into Jenni’s home. Sarah asks her friend about the pregnancy test but is informed that it’s tomorrow. Jenni is nervous and would rather not talk about it. Jenni has provided cake, milkshakes, and champagne, which Sarah declines, saying that she hasn’t been able to face it since drinking with Jo the previous week. (While she hasn’t realized it yet, Sarah is pregnant, not suffering an extended hangover.) The friends discuss the rest of Sarah’s attempts to contact Eddie, and Jenni is very supportive and thinks that Sarah was right to try everything she could. Jenni’s husband, Javier, returns, and when Jenni goes to the bathroom, he reveals that the pregnancy test was that morning and that it was negative. In the bathroom, Jenni breaks down.
Sarah sits up attempting to comfort Jenni. She eventually goes to bed in the spare room. On her way into work, she sees Eddie in a taxi, but must run out of traffic before she is able to see for sure.
Sarah and Rueben travel to Fresno to pitch a collaboration between their organization and a group of hospices. On a tour of the hospice before the meeting, Sarah and Eddie meet Ruth, a 15-year-old with a genetic condition who was one of their first patients.
