Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Back in the hospital room, Blossom comforted her, "Elysia, don't stress yourself out. It's a relief she's not trying to take Emmett back. Her situation... well, it's not one that could make Emmett happy. If Emmett went back with them, he'd definitely suffer."
