[Steve wakes up bright and early to work on the feast for the holiday. Lamb stew, turkey, mashed potatoes, biscuits, and gravy are just some of what he's trying to cook today. He could never have a feast like this at home with the war going on so he indulges while the opportunity is here. Aside from that, the people coming have earned it after the craziness of last month.

The round of colds going around yesterday doesn't discourage him either. Winter is approaching. People are supposed to get sick around this time. He makes chicken soup to show his consideration though. He can always drop it off later if they can't get out of bed. He'll find a way to make the best out of the situation.]

Then what is it?

You seem really stressed when you shouldn't be. As long as we've got each other's backs everything is going to be okay.

I'm sorry - I shouldn't be stressed when we're facing a mystery disease with no known cure?

[She probably shouldn't be so snappish. But even if she's not alone in this... even if things turn out alright, it's still nerve-racking.]

[Steve shakes his head.] Getting yourself worked up isn't going to change that.

No. [She concedes, her irritation dissipating a little.] I just can't stand it -- being idle when there's a crisis.

Good thing you're not being idle then. [He smiles to try to reassure her.] You've got the opposite problem in fact.

Doesn't feel that way. [Dairine mutters darkly. She has never dealt well with waiting, whether it was for test results or spring break. This was yet another form of waiting, the busy work before the shoe finally dropped. But this could have far more negative consequences.]
