Meg and Blake decide to make the most of their precious time together. The real reason for Fin’s refusal becomes clear.
Extended Summary
Blake can’t believe that Meg only have a few days left to live. He is devastated. Julia tells Blake that they both have to be strong for Meg’s sake. Meg doesn’t know yet. Julia thinks it is for the best that she doesn’t know about the test results.
Julia comes back into Meg’s room at the hospital. She acts normal. Meg senses that something is wrong anyway.
Blake can’t face Meg now when he knows that she will die in a couple of days.
Julia, Alf and Ailsa tell Blake that he must go in to see Meg. He is very sad. He tries to act normal as he walks into Meg’s room. After a while he rushes out of there. She senses that there is something really wrong here.
