Depending on one's point of view, it's either very late or very early when Ryan returns to the flat. He stayed with Chris at the infirmary for a couple hours while Jack was being healed. It was a miracle she'd come out with only cuts and bruises, though he knows the most serious injuries weren't physical.

He had told her she could have a place to stay here but she chose to stay behind in the infirmary. He didn't like the idea, she needed rest not to be fussing over Jack, but he didn't argue with her either. At least she wouldn't be alone.

As quietly as he can, he opens the door, hoping not to disturb David and Elaine.

Elaine had come back to the flat shortly after both teams had left, not wanting to leave David alone in the apartment, even if he was sleeping. She had also been too nervous to sit still, and knew it would just make Ryan more anxious, watching her pace.

When she'd gotten back to the apartment, she'd gone to their room to pray. She didn't know how much good it would do, but it was something and she couldn't do that in the bar.

When she heard the front door click open, she hurried out to meet Ryan. "Has everyone come back?" she asked anxiously.
