Olivia Remains Despondent; Springfield Honors Gus

Olivia Remains Despondent; Springfield Honors Gus At His Memorial

Ava arrives at Cedars to feed her mother. Olivia can't eat knowing that Gus is dead. Ava reminds her mother that she had no choice in this and neither did Gus. She and Emma both need her and so does her baby, she blurts out. Olivia still refuses to eat. Ava goes outside and meets with her father. Jeffrey says that Olivia might be depressed. She explains that she told her mother that she was pregnant to give her a reason to get better. "But you're not," Jeffrey points out.

Natalia goes to Cedars to finish paperwork for the insurance company. As she walks away, the nurse asks her if she needs to see a grief counselor. She shakes her head and wanders into Olivia's room for a moment.

Ava and Bill meet and he tells her that he's happy for Olivia. She asks him to go to the funeral with her. "I'm going with Lizzie," he says. He points out that she should be happy that her mother is getting a second chance, but she keeps worrying her mother will fight it. He hugs her and she kisses him. He pulls away and tells her that he's with Lizzie now. She knows that they were never serious. He tells her not to be upset. She blurts out that she's pregnant and it's his baby.

Lizzie thanks Bill for coming to the funeral with her. Ava arrives and Lizzie starts taunting her. Ava says that she feels bad for Rafe and pointedly comments that she doesn't think any child should go without a father.


Jeffrey says a few words [on Gus' behalf], and then Ava does, remembering him on behalf of his "other family" and thanking him for the gift he gave them. Rafe asks his mother if she wants to say anything. She stares over at Harley and says no.

Meanwhile, Olivia's brother spontaneously appears at her bedside. "I don't come to visit you often enough so you rip your heart out to make me hop on plane?" Sam jokes, taking her hand. She barely looks at him.

Natalia stands up and says that, while she was against this, she was wrong. She shouldn't have been wrapped up in her own grief. Hearing them all speak of Gus gives her strength; not a day went by when she didn't love him, her first love and her last. She can't say goodbye anymore and hopes that Gus lives on in the, "one family he has created in so many separate lives."
