Todd gives Felicity an old note in which she speaks of her dreams of becoming an artist. Felicity experiences doubts about her future and blows her interview for the seminar by telling Dr. McGrath that she doesn't really want to be a doctor. Felicity visits the art studio, where a cute student invites her to hang out and work on her drawing. She stays at the studio working all night, blowing off a date with Noel. They argue because he is upset that she is not confiding in him about her identity crisis. Felicity visits Todd with a care package and gives him his kiss. He immediately experiences complications and has to be rushed into surgery. Felicity is surprised to learn that Todd is engaged. His fiancée gave him permission to go after Felicity because she didn't want to deny him a chance at happiness, but is devastated at the thought of losing him. The doctors are able to save Todd, and he leaves for a rehab hospital. Felicity is inspired by the experience and remembers why she always had a passion for medicine. She convinces Dr. McGrath that she can fully commit herself to the seminar, even though she is not ready to make a definitive career choice. She and Elena are accepted. Noel and Felicity stage a break-up to put a stop to Richard's blackmail schemes. Julie sends Carol a tape revealing that she is her daughter. Carol claims that she never put a child up for adoption.
