Mac wonders why he’s acting like he doesn’t deserve a compliment.

“I don’t,” Cody says. Mac thinks he’s letting himself be defined by his past.

He wishes Cody had had a good dad growing up. Cody wishes he had too. Maybe it would have spared him from doing something he regrets.

Dante interrupts before he can explain to announce Heather may have information.

After Mac takes off, Dante thanks his friend for turning him back to Sam when he needed to.

Cody talks about how he screwed things up with Britt. Things have changed since they were kids.

Dante has a life and kids and Cody is still chasing after shiny objects. For a moment on Christmas, he and Britt made a good team focusing on something more than just them.

The cop suggests they could still have a chance.

Getting up, Britt talks about delivering the breached baby. So much could have gone wrong… it was the first time she realized life is a miracle that should never be taken for granted.

She hopes they will be able to look back on one magical night and rely on each other when she’s not around.

They aren’t sure what that means. Brad assumes she’s talking about Cody.

“I’m going to miss you,” she tells him.

They look uncomfortable.
