Katie is crying on Henry's shoulder again.  She tells him how Jack said "I love you, Carly" to her after the explosion.  Henry tells her she's making too much of it, and to go visit Jack in the hospital.

Today’s episode was directed by Michael Eilbaum and written by Mimi Leahey.

Henry: Katie, hey, I was just about to call you. How's Jack?

Katie: He's doing okay from what I hear.

Henry: You haven't seen him?

Katie: No, considering Carly's guarding his bed like a mad dog, I think it's best this way.

Henry: Whoa, whoa, you're letting Carly be the gatekeeper here? That's not like you.

Katie: I'm trying not to be me.

Henry: Who are you trying to be?

Katie: Some quiet, patient, selfless wimp.

Henry: Wow, that is -- that's going to change, okay? Now, I need a martini and you need someone to knock some sense into you. Let's go.

 

Katie: But Henry, he said, "I love you, Carly."

Henry: She's the mother of his kids.

Katie: You think that's what he meant?

Henry: I think it means she's going to be in his life whether we like it or not. How many times were they married and remarried?

Katie: Not making me feel better.

Henry: Then you're not listening, sweetheart. Because no matter how many times Jack and Carly were married, it couldn't last.

Katie: The marriages didn't last. But what about the feelings? Those probably still go on. I mean, look at you and Vienna.

Henry: Don't look at me and Vienna. We don't want to get married. Jack does. And he wouldn't have proposed if he had any doubts.

Katie: Do you think I'm making too much of this?

Henry: I think he was trapped under some beams, probably having a near death experience -- yes, let it go.

Katie: Okay, I'm just going to follow Margo's advice then, and step back --

Henry: No -- no, I don't agree with that. I don't think you should crowd him, but he needs to stay strong. And for that, I think he needs you, not Carly.

Katie: I hope so. But I just can't help but wonder if saying Carly's name was a symptom of something deeper, you know, that he's trying to ignore. Like maybe, he will never love anyone like he loves her. And she's the one he really wants to be with.

Henry: I think he already loves you more. I get that you're scared, okay? And no one understands the risk of love better than I do. Yeah, you might get your heart broken, but sweetie, if you love Jack -- I mean, if you really love Jack, you've got to take that risk. Otherwise, it's going to haunt you for the rest of your life.
