00:10 There she is.
00:12 Isabel.
00:14 I can't wait to meet her in person.
00:16 She's going to be so lucky to have you and David.
00:18 He's going to be such a great dad.
00:20 It's totally not a crisis.
00:22 But I see why the heartbeat is slower.
00:24 She has a problem with her heart?
00:26 No, her heart is perfect.
00:28 The problem is the umbilical cord.
00:30 It's wrapped around her neck.
00:32 Oh my God.
00:34 It's going to be fine. Gemma is at 39 weeks.
00:36 Ready to go.
00:38 We'll schedule in a C-section for tomorrow.
00:40 And the baby will be okay?
00:42 [phone rings]
00:44 I'm going to put this monitor on your tummy.
00:46 If Isabel is in distress,
00:48 it's going to send me a signal
00:50 and I'll step in.
00:52 But tomorrow should be fine.
00:54 Gemma, it's going to be okay.
00:56 I've known Hannah my whole life.
00:58 If she says it's fine, it's fine.
01:00 I know.
01:02 She's the best.
01:04 You've made this all so easy.
01:06 Isabel is going to have an amazing mother.

01:26 I think she's terrified.
01:28 I'm terrified.
01:30 It's going to be fine, Charlotte.
01:32 You've already done the hard part.
01:34 Getting her to do prenatal care,
01:36 take care of herself.
01:38 Trust me, this is not how most adoptions go.
01:40 I love her.
01:42 Gemma, I mean.
01:44 I do.
01:46 Well, tomorrow, I'll hand you Isabel
01:48 and you'll have someone else to love.
01:50 Thank you.

02:33 The umbilical cord is wrapped around the baby's neck.
02:36 Jemma needs a C-section before she goes into labor.
02:39 If that happens, it may be too late.
02:42 Well, I can see how this might have scared her,
02:45 the reality of why she's giving up.
02:47 No. Just before she disappeared, she got a text message.
02:51 It seemed to bother her.
02:53 Okay. I don't know if this means anything,
02:55 but it's been two hours.
02:56 Her phone is going right to voicemail.
02:58 She's not at her place. She's not anywhere.
03:00 You know, maybe she just needed time to process.
03:02 Not like this. Not with a baby in distress.
03:05 Jemma would never risk Isabelle's life.
03:07 Not... not intentionally.
03:09 Well, I understand.
03:11 I adopted two kids myself.
03:13 It's a whole extra layer of worry.
03:16 It's not just about the baby. Jemma's become family.
03:19 I'm worried for her.
03:21 What about you, David? Any clue what happened?
03:23 I'm scared, too. But not that someone did something.
03:26 I'm scared that Jemma changed her mind.
03:28 She wouldn't.
03:30 We said this wouldn't happen the first time we tried to adopt.
03:32 It was different.
03:33 Maybe.
03:35 I like Jemma. I do.
03:37 We both know how this goes.
03:39 She walked out of that office.
03:41 If she chose to leave, there's nothing we can do.
