Philip had gotten himself a cup of coffee and was on his way back when he spotted Julia and a doctor.  The look on Julia's face made him wonder if something were wrong with Nick and he turned in their direction, calling out to her quietly as the doctor was just pushing open the door.
 
"Julia...?"
 
She blinked at him and then looked down the hall, remembering he had been with Derek.
 
"Derek's fine." Philip answered that question before she could ask it aloud, concern in his dark eyes "Wha' abou' Nick?"
 
He looked into the room to find Nick and spotted him, Kat sitting next to him.  Then he looked back at Julia who was now looking in without the flash of emotion he had seen out in the hallway.
 
What was going on? he wondered, a little confused but not sticking his foot in it by saying anything out loud about it.
 
"Going home?" He asked Nick instead, hoping that maybe he would know what was going on and then winking in greeting to Kat.
