Roo is surprised to find Brett at the hospital. He tells her the nurse won’t let him see Martha without her permission. Roo agrees and Brett is clearly besotted with his daughter. Bobby arrives and apologises to Roo for thinking she set her up. She says Martha is beautiful and asks to touch her but Roo won’t let her. Brett is disgusted at how heartless Roo is and says there’s no way he’s going to let her bring Martha up to be like her, he’s going to do everything he can to take her off her.
