Amber revealed that she thought the worst day of her life was the day he was intubated, but now this was the worst one.

Tonight, Trent and Amber decided to discuss Jonah's situation later and enjoy some time with their kids and Joose. Jonah accompanied the family to the firepit, but Amber felt that he was there because he was supposed to be and would rather be in bed.

The family went curling tonight. The Johnstons enjoyed training for the sport. Emma, Anna, and Elizabeth enjoyed some sister time together. Anna revealed that she planned to transfer to Amber's college since it offered night classes.

Emma revealed that she was not crushing on anybody and focussing on herself. Elizabeth told her sisters that she was planning to buy a home with her boyfriend Brice but wasn't sure if it was a good decision financially.

The family went together to the firepit to enjoy their last day with Joose, where they roasted marshmallows. The Johnstons talked about their favorite moments with Joose, which included him learning new English words. Joose confessed that his grammar improved after living with the Johnstons.

The family gave him a beautiful gift of a memory book with all of their photos of their time together. Joose read a letter to the family, thanking them for the warm welcome and for making him comfortable in the house. Amber put the letter in a frame and hung it on the room wall in which he stayed.

Elizabeth discussed her decision to move in with Brice with her friends Dacey and Carol. Dacey asked her to rethink the decision, while Carol supported her. Elizabeth felt that Dacey was talking like her father; Carol was like her mother. She told her friends,

"He's ready to move in already."
