Somewhere in Nevada Nikki was at faculity just walking around before group. When it came time for group she went in and sat in a circle. "Now before we start today we have a new comer to the group". Nikki turned and being wheeled in by a nurse was Criss with his arm in a cast and couple of stitches above his eye. This spooked Nikki as she excused herself to use the bathroom before group started. She splashed some water on her face. When she came back the nurse asked Criss why he was here. "I drove my car off the road and when I woke up my arms were in restrains. They told me that I tried to end my life so my shrink and my brothers told the hospital to put the restrains on me so I couldn't hurt myself again"Criss replied. After group was over Nikki volunteer to bring Criss back to his room.

"That's nice of you Nicole thank you"the nurse remarked. As she wheeled Criss said nothing. "What made you drive your car off the road?" Nikki asked. "Like you I lost someone I loved Sandra left me a Dear Criss letter and I just lost it mentally" Criss remarked. "Criss are you copying me or something"she joked as Criss chuckled. When they arrived JD was there with Costa. "Hey guys"Nikki stated. "I guess you're here too". "Your mother did say this is the best mental health factulity in Nevada"Costa added. "I should get back just make sure Criss doesn't pop a wheelie in this"she joked. JD walked over and gave Nikki a hug. "The crew misses you"JD stated. "Tell them I miss them but I'll be back" and Nikki left. "I feel like an right now"Criss stated. "What you need is a better antidepressant"JD replied. "Does mom know what I tried to do"he asked. "Yes but we told her to stay where she was for a while". "And the crew?"Criss asked. "Don't worry about the crew or Sandra just get yourself together so you don't have to take up permanent residence in this place"Costa stated. Criss thanked his brothers as they gave him hugs. That night Costa went to Serenity to feed Hammie when he saw Sandra about to knock on the door.

"Costa nice to see you I was just about to knock on the door to talk to Criss" she remarked. "He isn't here Sandra" Costa replied. "He must be doing Believe I should go down to-". "Sandra Criss isn't at The Luxor either". "Than where is he Mexico, California, New York?". "I can't tell you I'm under strict oders by his doctor not to tell anyone where he is" Costa replied and went in. The next morning Nikki was having some breakfast when one of the doctors walked over. "Nicole can talk to you in private?". She finished her breakfast and went with the doctor. "Is there something wrong?" she asked. "I was looking through your chart and I saw you work for Mindfreak Production and our new patient is your boss. I noticed that your mother is his shrink". "Believe or not Doctor Monatag I realized what Criss was going through and asked my mom for help with Criss" she remarked. "Really". "I know it seems strange but Criss is a great guy and magician when he doesn't let his depression control him"Nikki admitted. "Thank you Nikki" and the doctor left.
