Gary's brow furrowed. There was something wrong with Zev, something he couldn't quite place.

Kelly woke up to find the room fillet with doctors. She quickly stood, her movements rushed and uncertain.

Gary stepped forward, pointing at Kelly. "Do you recognize her? If you do, blink."

Kelly's heart pounded as she stared at Zev. Her mind was torn-she wanted him to remember her, but part of her wished he didn't.

Then, Zev blinked. His gaze, soft and warm, was the same as always.

Gary let out a quiet sigh of relief. No memory loss, no serious damage.

"What about me? Do you recognize me? Blink if you do

Zev didn't blink. His eyes stayed sharp, cold, and distant.

"Great," Gary muttered under his breath. "He's not there. His mind's gone."

Kelly was just as lost as Gary. Why would Zev recognize her but not him?

Not ready to give up, Gary woke Oscar from his nap and asked him to come over. "How about him? Do you know him?"

Zev's expression didn't change. His eyes remained cautious, never once softening toward Oscar.

Still, there was no sign of recognition.

Kelly stared at Zev, her voice shaky. "Maybe ... maybe he's still not fully awake.

Gary nodded, though he wasn't so sure.
